I've done it on a Cingular RAZR V3 using the USB cable
and some software from one of
the Motorola hacking sites. Problem is even though it
was supposed to be Cingular
firmware I get a subsidy error on power up though the
phone works fine.
Cingular/ATT will do nothing to help you in this area
unlike Verizon they don't have
techs in the stores.
Doubtful a flash will do much to help the V3 if that's
what you have, it seems to
simply be a flawed phone in the end.
You can use the Motorola branded Phone Tools to
transfer your phone book.

that is cool. Maybe a newer razr would be a better

Cingular ( at the time ) replaced the phone 3 times.
no improvement.
