755p 1.07 update flash into 700p = YES
Has anyone tried it?

Flashed originally Telus 700p (was using Sprint 700p 1.10 MR) into 755p Sprint 1.04MR
You need to get the following (ALL AT YOUR OWN RISK)
1) romupdater.prc (its in the SD 700p updater. I did **not** try the 755p updater)
2) run romupdater, it should say "VENT" and "DVT", if you do not see that DVT, do not flash!!! (VERY IMPORTANT)
3) d/l my file and put it in SD card under directory \ROM
4) charge battery, FULL BACKUP!!, run romupdater and type 'ventura'
The radio rom can also be updated, but it becomes version 176. Will see if there are differences later on.
You get the new icons like
1) My Treo
2) Bejeweled
3) Get Nuance
4) GoogleMaps
5) IM
6) Sprint Store
(Thats the difference I saw between the 700p and 755p version)
As to the A2DP bluetooth in the options, I did not see that and I don't have A2DP to try.
(but you can get Voice gateway working and use your computer as a bluetooth headset
cool)
Also I don't use SMS so I don't see any difference there also.

ok, here is a more simplified way to convert your treo 700p to a 755. for now this is sprint ONLY!
1) download this zip file:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DHM0I1FO
2) extract this zip to a CLEAN sd card. this should leave you with the following two folders on your sd card:
PALM
ROM
3) Insert the SD card into your treo and launch the romupdater from your application launcher. it should say "VENT" and "DVT"
4)Type "ventura" (without the quotes) and press enter
thats it, welcome to your new 755
thanks kokoman for figuring this out

Yep I did that and I can say it worked for me...(did a backup with nvbackup first) and so far the phone works fine. Many users are reporting it seems faster to them....more zippy. Mine seems about the same but the big thing is I can now use SAG with my Motorola S705 and it works!
All in all a nice upgrade and is super easy to do.

Interesting. Two questions:
What are the actual benefits? Any new features?
Any idea if this could work on Verizon?
I'm intrigued.... Anyone?
