c .How can I determine the phone model on which my application is running?
Applicable Releases: 1.0, 1.1, 2.0
There is no API to determine the phone model. In BREW SDK 2.0 onwards, you
can get the Platform ID on which your application is running by calling
ISHELL_GetDeviceInfo(). In order to access the Platform ID with this call,
the AEEDeviceInfo.wStructSize field must be filled prior to this call.

WHere do I get a list of platformIDs?

Can a phone have its firmware flashed from the carrier to support newer Brew API. E.G. can and could Verizon flash an older phone that supports 1.1 to 2.0 or 2.1. If they could, is there a way to determine which version of brew they suppport

(You can buy most of them on eBay for under $400.) The different versions of Brew tend to run on different versions of MSM chipsets, so it's unlikely to be possible in most cases anyway.

The version of BREW is determined by GETAEEVERSION()
