Sending G5 for Phase II Upgrade (addl. items)

[MrRadio]

I am getting ready to send my G5 in for the phase 2 upgrade.

Am I supposed to send it without the antenna, battery and belt clip or WITH those items?

It does not specify.

Can anyone confirm?


Thanks!

I personally saw no need to send the additional items - the only thing I left attached was the battery and that probably didn't need to go either - although I suspect it helps speed the process for the Unication guys to not have to install a battery during the process.

I just put it all back in the box as it came originally.

I sent mine with antenna and battery attached (I don't use the belt clip so I didn't include it, but don't think that would be an issue).

I sent it in the original G4/G5 box with a little padding added inside so it didn't flop around during shipment. That box inside a bigger one (reused Amazon "A3" box) with some bubble wrap around the Unication box to keep it from flopping around as well.

Upgrade went without a hitch. I have a feeling all they do is connect something to the micro USB port, power it on, upgrade it, make sure the unit turns back on, then power it off, stuff it back in the box and ship back to you. Thought I read somewhere this is on the order of 5-10 mins duration.

Thanks guys. I figured the process was that quick.

I already had it bubble wrapped and sealed in a small box with the accessories attached, so I left it.

Went out yesterday via 2 day USPS priority. Hopefully it will be back by next Mon or Tue.
