So you want to know if you have a G3 or a G4 Model of your Prophet ?

Basiclly what G3/G4 means it the type of DOC used (Disk On Chip)

Soft reset your Prophet (insert the stylus into the little hole on the bottom of
your Prophet (to the left of the mini-USB connector)

When your prophet boots up, it will show you a number of things in red text.

For Example:

IPL: 2.09.000
SPL: 2.20.000
GSM: 02.47.21
OS: 2.20.7.34

If you look at the IPL and SPL numbers, you'll see they end in .000 in this case
your phone in a G3 model.

So, in short:

IPL/SPL: ending in .000 = G3 model


IPL/SPL: ending in .0001 = G4 model

P.S.
It is not possible to upgrade from a G3 model to a G4 model through software, as
the DOC is a piece of Hardware.
