Any idea how to get a quicker gps lock with this rom??? Sometimes my gps locks right away, and other times it takes a long time to lock.

note is first time takes along time to get a lock b/c it has to be primed, and also please know that this is a beta/leak. Did u take battery out and hard reset after u flashed to this rom? If not make sure u do.

If your GPS works, but your gettting mixed results for the GPS Lock, then I came across a few fixes/tweaks, they work for me. These may or may not work for you; so browse the forum links and read for yourself the results others are having then try it out.

1. Enable aGPS Mode:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...=agps+registry

2. Some other registry tweak, seems to have worked, but can't really tell the actual effect of it.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...ght=gpstest2.1

3. Use a today-plugin called 'GPSToday' currently in v. 0.95. Personally I love this program and it's a great 'primer' and locks on quite well. I'm getting great results with these.

Again, I can't really tell you the effect of each individual tweak/fix, I've done/added all 3 to my device and im getting a lot better results.

[thermus]

Ya I had the same problem trying to download at first, but if you just leave the download page up the entire time (aka hit download then don't touch anything until it's finished) it should work. As soon as I brought another window to the front of my screen it stopped both times, the third time I left the original page at the front and it worked. Weird that it's working this way...

Is anyone else having trouble getting their GPS to work? I did a hard reset after installing this rom then later took the phone outside for awhile and tried to connect to gps using persistant method and it just keeps showing 0 sat the whole time. Am I missing something here?

I believe the GPS can take long the first time it actually catches a a signal and works..... i heard it can take up to 20-25min. Make sure you are outside and have good signal stegnth!

[Balkar]

So basicly to get this rom working, we follow the steps for mustan rom up to the soft reset with alltell rom then we flash with this rom?

[rwcj63]

has anyone seen this yet? i've already flashed it and it's pretty nice.

Well I gotta ask????

I noticed that this ROM lists nueMMS does that mean that this is a WM6.1 rom that will let me still have MMS on my Alltel phone?

As always THANKS for the advise..

This ROM is WM6.1, however, it's a Sprint ROM. I read that it will work on other Touch phone as long as you don't let the customization run. Check out the link I posted to the ppcgeek guys. They've been testing it quite a bit.

The programs that will not work so far are these: Touchpal and TCPMP.

I don't know any technical info about this ROM. I only posted so the Wckediden folks can test it as well if desired.

[Balkar]

I have a question... I was wondering what are the steps to flash this rom and have rev a gps working... I already asked the question but i had no answers...

Is the right way to do things to unlock your phone with imacokeman unlockers, then flash alltell rom(Follow all the prompt asked) and then when alltel customisation wants to run, we hit soft reset and then we proceep on flashing this rom? Basicly follow the steps that are in mustan rom?

Or we just right away flash with this rom and everything should be working? I read the tutorial on flashing roms but i am still confused with this...

Thanks in advance for the help!

yes you are correct and i have a tutorial in my signature. just ask in the thread if you want me to make the addition of the touch w/gps to it and i will get it down..... walks all through it like a baby.

[matrixmain78]

:yahoo:Works Perfect on my Sprint HTC Touch, the GPS Speed and position It's acurate!, fast Internet Just Dont forget that when It's a cloudy day wont get the Satellites!, the HHC Home customizer It's great, with this ROM you dont need to install to many programs, it almost has it all what you need!.
Also Watch YouTube! directly, updated flash player installed!
Thanks D/\SH!!!:smile_mini2:

w the steps for flashing come on now when you flash to the alltel rom you will have the radio that you need for the gps and rev a to work.

[VenumX]

after testing the two roms I have found that I like the features of mustan-tech's v3 rom for the touch. It has a lot more features and is very pretty :). If you need any more info on it ask in the mustan-tech rom's thread. :)

[thermus]

I have found that when I use this rom it opens the keypad after everything I do. Close out a game or program and bam, there is the keypad again. :( :( Not very fun or practical. Seems kinda slow to the touch too but maybe its just me.

EDIT*** Also, the quick menu (start menu) works when it wants to. meaning I can push the start menu and it wil be normal, push again to close, push again to open and then there is the quick menu. THAT ALSO FRUSTRATING.......

EDIT***** AND THE TOUCH KEYPAD DON'T WORK GAAAAAAARRHRHRHRHHRHR THIS ROM GETS .5 STARS!!!!!!!!!

[thermus]

ok so there is this folder in here that has a bunch of files (called phone codes). What are these for???

[VenumX]

probably cause you have a modified dialer so the phone codes are so you can do things like ##786# and so forth. As for the rom, i would switch to mustan-techs V3 rom its a much better rom works crazy good havent had any issues with V3 yet

[rwcj63]

Actually if you'd give it a chance, you will find the OMJ Rom has a lot of really cool things in it that some of the other cooked ROMs don't have. It's the best I've tried so far and even though there are a few little issues, there is enough informaiton on the ppcgeeks website to take care of them.

Ok well this is clearly stated as a touch rom, loads as a touch rom but goes to sprint mogul homepage. These little things are frustrating to me and I have my own opinion right??? I don't like it. There are a lot of GOOD things about this rom but it's the not so good things that ruin it for me. If you gcould give me some tips to fix these instead of sending me to another site then it owuld be appreciated. Thanks for your input on this rom.

I downloaded it this morning and the only thing there was a self extracting rar file with one little file in it. That's wierd lol.

[rwcj63]

so far this is the only ROM that has multiple GPS Navigation, multimedia, utilities, phone codes. I have spend a lot less time getting this the way i like with all the programs i like most are alreadyl there.

the GPS on this ROM is amazing. i get 5-8 sats within seconds of me going outside my house. i can get 3 or 4 in my house.

I can give detailed information on how to fix all problems stated in the last post but i would have to find it again myself. and i apoligize for sending a member to another website but since OMJ's Rom has been tested much more on that website than this one, i felt inclined to point them there. from now on, if i can't answer directly i won't post.

i can give you detailed info on how to fix things tonight. i'm at work now and don't have the time to re-find the posts. i'm still new here and i probably shouldn't post until i have all the info at my finger tips for posting. sorry.

you will need a registy editor to be able to fix the phone pad issue.

it's not a bad thing that your sending a member to another site, cause its going to happen. It's just obvious you have fixed it on your phone or have read about so why not post it. Let me know what you come up with when you get home and I will do some searching my self. Could you explain what the phone codes are????

The phone codes are for accessing the progam areas of your phone. The Rev A verifcation is one of the things you can find there.

There a many posts here that give detailed information on how to use the codes. The thing I like about these is that I don't have to remember codes to access my phone for changing things. OMJ has included them for me.

Edit. reg edit to stop the dialer from randomly popping up

Ok guys...all your help will be very much appreciated ! This is my first time flashing a ROM and I want to make sure I dont screw things up....

I downloaded the verizon version to my laptop and I can connect to my vx6900 with active sync...

I dont know where to get these files:

Please note these roms are GPS/REV A based, you must have unlocked w/ ImCokeMan's v2.31 and have upgraded your radio to 3.37. DO NOT flash these roms if you have not done so!!!***[/size][/b]

***** ImCokeMan's v2.31*****
***** radio to 3.37*****

How do I update to radio 3.37?

So from the instructions what I have understood is that once I know where to get these above files...I basically unlock the phone by running the ImCoke application on my laptop while the phone is activesynced...then I update the radio to 3.37....then I run the ROM file exe and follow the onscreen directions. Once the ROM is installed I do a hard reset and I should be done??

Please let me know.

I wish there was a very detailed instruction list with the above files included in the steps for us first timers :) ....but regardless this site is awesome!

are you totally blind there is look in my signature to learn how to flash and also in the other rom for the rev a and gps there is step by step with links also look for that one isnt too far down from this here OMJ rom..... very east to do...... and you need to flash to the alltel touch rom first.

[skiiman1]

I have downloaded the file listed at the top of this post for verizon, but I am unsure where to download the unlocker and the radio update utility which is listed as necessary in order to run the ROM update. Can someone provide direct links for these.

the unlocker as stated in the first post.... just need to click the link here it is... press the thanks button!! http://rapidshare.com/files/11395107...r_MFG_2.31.exe

[skiiman1]

Basically this is my first ROM update:

I have the verizon VX6900 and have successfully installed some mods provided by DASH. I am a bit familiar with active sync as well.

I want to get the GPS working and also the Rev A speeds on my phone in the simplest manner and I think the OMJ Verizon ROM update is the way to go??

From what I understand all I need to do is 1) download the OMJ verizon EXE file to my laptop 2) Run the unlocker program listed in the beginning of this thread (which I still cant find) 3) Somehow update the radio on my touch to 3.37 (which I still dont know how to do)
4) Once the above 3 are complete I run the OMJ Verizon EXE on my laptop while active sync is running and connected to my Touch
5) From there I think I just follow the onscreen instructions??? Please let me know where I could possibly screw up...I dont want to be phoneless :)
