Default 8320 curve os into 8310 curve

the chip in the 8310 curve is exactly the same as in the 8320 curve. could the 8320 curve os be loaded into the 8310 curve, making it essentially an 8320 and wifi enabled. the hardware being the same i do not see why not.
thanks

Nope. You could create a hybrid OS though. However it would still read as a 8310.

And WiFI requires HARDWARE which the 8310 does not have.

Exactly. The 8310 does not have the internal Wi-Fi antenna.

[QUOTE=elite1;6719487]Here's a good thread to read on this:thread removed because i am not worthy.

thanks a lot for the quick response.
one more thing: anything to consider if loading the 8320 curve os into the 8310 curve? as far as i see the hardware is the same.
if things do not go well, can i simply reload the old os?
thanks again.
