In that case you are right. Now you can do one of the following:
1.)Check on the site and other sites if they have the exact same ROM (check for exact version number under system info) you have on the working PDA. My guess is it will we downloadable somewhere. You can open a thread, maybe you will find a user ready to help.
2.)A more difficult way would be to dump the ROM from the working PDA and then cook your own flashfile from that -- definitely more technical, you will also find instructions on that site.
3.)Ask the person you bought the second PDA where they got the ROM from, it definitely still is a user ROM since Dell never issued an official 6.0.
4.)If you cannot find anything try a number of different ROMs, one of them might include the fix.
You might also search for a simple *.cab file with that sync fix. Must be out there somewhere. If you dump the working ROM (be sure to use a seperate directory, you will get 1000s of files) you might also find the respective file, however, will you recognize it? A comparison of both ROMs might help. You can make a search for all *.cab files of both ROM dumps and compare only those. Dumping is a simple procedure, the question is if you want to go to all that trouble.
