2) What is the use of flashing ?

3) i cudnt download Bezol's P2k Tool, is there any other links beside motomodders.net?

Witty,
Have you any experience in flashing/flexing your phone? have you used pst,p2k tools etc? if you answer no, then i suggest you read and read before ateempting to upgrade to i398 or E790 . A lot of E398 have met premature death because of some problems in upgrading but luckily mine was not one of them. go here . www.motomodders.net . go to E398 thread then go to thread E398-E790. there you will find shoeys guide. its all there. good luck. the video is so cooooollll.

My E398 now can RECORD VIDEO!!! and with excellent graphics at that!!!!! I followed shoey's guide moding E398 - E398i. I also got a 128 mb card.its just great. go to motomodders . it also has i-tunes. cool!!!! menus are faster. If you like modding your phone getting its full potential, this phone is for you.
A WARNING though. alot of E398 phones got busted this way coz of unknown reasons. luckily mine was not one of them. GREAT PHONE>>>>>>>> never regretted I got this instead of K700.

No, if you want to transfer info only to the TransFlash card. Using MobilePhone Tools is extremely annoying and it's quite useless. Nevertheless, you have to install the drivers for the phone to use it as a modem or to update its firmware/flex.
