no, i read that. i was unclear of if i needed an ADDITIONAL file or if D/L the sprint rom was all i needed.

i figured out the problem - i had mistakenly installed another dialer and removed it. i guess it wasn't all the way gone. i hard reset and everything is ok. my MSL works again

DCD, is there a fix for the EPST bug? tried a few different dialer plugins and nothing is working. my old iphone one, the default, wizard reTouched, etc. still cannot open EPST.

even opening it in the /windows directory will not work. it looks like it will open, then closes. (i would really like to avoid reflashing)

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] c@rL0$:
The Iphone and wizard retouched dialers cripple the EPST functions because those are dialers for GSM phones.

You can try removing those dialers and finding a custom one here.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=372098&page=17

or install the Big_Button_Dialer and skin it to look like the touch dialer and your EPST functions will function.

The CAB's i provided are to install the Big_Button_dialer and to the skin your dialer with the TOUCH Skin.

HELP - No Service - Calls don't even ring, cannot activate *228!

Guys, I REALLY need help....I am on Verizon, I have upgraded my ROM to 3.1.2 and my Radio to 3.39.10, but I cannot send or receive any calls at all...not even then '*228' activation works...immediately, no matter what i type in for a number, I get "call lost" , "signal is faded"

I have tried reflashing to an older rom, "3.0.4" and an older radio, but that didnt work, so I reflash back to 3.1.2 and 3.39.10, which is how my vx6800 is now, but I cannot make any calls, even though the other phone on the SAME verizon plan is getting bars/service but my vx6800 doesnt even see the network now......whats happening? I need this phone to work!

Thanks in advance!

I have this ROM loaded with the Sprint carrier cab.

I can't get any of my PIM backup files to restore any of my text messages. It restores all of my appointments, contacts, and everything else, but not any of my outlook messages.

Anyone else experience this? Is there a way around it? I have an SPB backup from the 3.0.4 ROM that would get me all my messages back to 5/4/08, but I'd like to keep using PIM backup if I could.

The only other issue I've had with this ROM is every time I close out a program it doesn't take me back to the today screen, it opens the dialer screen.

I didn't cook a ROM. I just loaded the ROM on the first post, then ran the Sprint carrier cab file.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] crobs808:
well...i got it to work....but only by flashing everything back to original verizon settings/firmware. cant get 312 or new radio to work on verizon without it knocking out phone service and/or data.

so, how i need a new A-key....i cant just call up and ask for one can i? i mean, they are gonna ask why i need one, then ill have to say i flashed the rom, then they will tell me im not covered, right?

-connor
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nosmohtac:
You should be good calling them for a new A-key. Just tell them you were trying new software out, and it messed up your phone and you had to do a hard reset and it won't get a data connection now.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bunvilla:
the bug u r talking about does it flash the EPST screen for a brief second and then disappear, when u dial ##778 ?

the reason i ask is because i had that issue with DCD' s 3.04 rom.

I have cricket as my carrier and i noticed that in the cricket customization folder the epst.epst file was missing, so i grab 1 from the other carriers OEM folder and put it into my /windows folder and presto i was good to go.

There are different size epst.epst files in the different CustomOEM carrier folders, and maybe u just have to replace the one u have in your windows folder with a different size epst.epst file ( that is if u do have 1 in your windows folder= if not that might be the reason u cant accesss EPST)

I figured just maybe that might help 1 of u guys, good luck

I ran the cab that GC posted a few days back with MMS. could that be the problem? i mean, it looks like a file error or registry setting to me, it wont even open from the /windows directory.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Zenoran:
With Verizon, every time you switch major radio firmware (i.e. gps rev a jump), you have to actually call Verizon and have them reset your data connection and reinit your phone in the system.

I've had to do this about 10 times... excuse I use is "i just did a hard reset and now my phone wont work (lol)" :)

reason I don't go back to legacy radio cuz it's a pain to get it setup but yer golden once you're upgraded.

Radio Upgrades

Actually that's not true. You only have to do this if you upgrade your radio using a NON-CARRIER supplied radio upgrade.

I had a stock verizon ROM. To get to the latest greatest everything i did the following:

1. Upgraded bootloader to olipro 2.40

2. Upgraded to stock Sprint 3.35 ROM (This gives you the 3.35 radio)

3. Flashed DCD 3.1.2 ROM.

4. Ran Verizon CAB

Then the 3.39 Radio came out and instead of doing the SD card upgrade i...

4. Upgraded to Sprint test ROM 3.39 (This gives you the 3.39 Radio)

5. Flashed DCD 3.1.2 ROM again.

6. Ran verizon CAB again.

After all of this i never had to call verizon.

Jusy FYI.

That's what i did also but let me ask you something...

how do you remove the "Test only, Not for Sale" from the boot screen?

Thanks for the dedication to the ROM. However, the Pens are ready. Hope your Red Wings are ready. Good luck.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] schwillyd530:
Bootscreen

Well personally mine still says "Test Only..." but if you wanted to you can just re-cook another ROM using the new BuildOS and 3.49 kitchen over at ppckitchen.org It won't explicitly say it has the 3.49 ROM when you d/l it but after installing when you do "update" it will show up and you can choose from a lot of different boot up screens. This is handy in case you were gonna do a ROM upgrade anyway.

Alternatively there is another thread here which may help:

Question, I have the newest Rom and Radio. I just installed the Arcsoft 5.0 cab. I then installed the new string under the WspHeader folder with the name X-VzW-MDN and for data it has my 10 digit phone number. Yet my phone says MMS is unable to send and will save it under drafts. Am I missing something?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Zenoran:
I guess this must vary on location then... EVERY time I go from 1.x radio to 3.x radio (or vice versa) I always have to have them reset my data connection or I get errors...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
No this is not the problem. I have been running this cab since 3.1.0 test kitchen, then with 3.1.1 and now with 3.1.2 and have never been able to replicate this problem. My guess for all you people out there having this epst problem is that there's something that you're not doing right when cooking the rom and flashing, or installing your software. I'm leaning towards the latter.

Run this RUU and flash. This will not touch your OS or radio, it will just flash the splash screens. This will cause a hard reset, but your splash screens will be the way you want them, and your OS will be untouched (just reset).

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
If you have OLIPRO 2.4 on your phone then just put the radio rom on a SD card (<=2gig) and then rename it to TITAIMG.nbh. enter bootloader: power + camera + reset button. That should update the Radio. Then when it take out the SD card and go back into the bootloader screen. Then run DCD's kitchen and have it create and update the ROM. Once it is done and reboots then put your carrier CAB on the phone and run it. I am on Verizon and usually do the OTP (*228 option 1) and I am ready for business.

Technically, if all goes well and carrier cab is installed correctly, you don't even have to do any OTA provisioning.

Help! Up a creek

I was going from 2.3.2 to 3.1.1 and have had a slew of problems. First, updated to 3.1.1 standard (not from kitchen) and then tried to update the radio to 3.27. 3.27 radio kept failing whining about Invalid Command after 9%. After looking around, someone referenced the ppcgeeks post telling folks to upgrade to the 3.35 HTC/Sprint rom that included 3.35 radio. Did this and the next step in the guide said to upgrade to a custom rom. Made a rom with the kitchen, installed it and now I'm stuck. The phone can't make or receive calls because I think it still thinks it's on sprint. Can't run ##778 because the EPST program bails whenever I try to start it.

Also can't ActiveSync anymore. For some reason ActiveSync tries but then fails to connect. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling ActiveSync 4.5 on XP but no luck. *228 doesn't work, sounds like a Sprint error saying the number is invalid.

DCD,

I ran 3.0.4 for the longest time with no problems at all. however I spoke of it going to the boot screen when i soft reset or turned the phone off. I switched to 3.1.1 so I assumed/ hoped it was going to just not happen again. BUT it does the same with 3.1.1 so i guess I'm going to reflash another radio tonight.

question- the new radio 3.39 how do you like it? ppcgeeks suggest nothing too special except quicker gps?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] coffey_joshua:

here is the OEM for the MMS arcsoft 4.2.8.1...should work fine...well once i can get it to upload i will, some reason it keeps giving me an error
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
If you copy the arcsoft oem from 3.0.4 (not 4.2.8.1 as friguy posted above) into the 3.1.1 kitchen, then manually enter your registry mdn key in hklm\software\arcsoft\arcsoft mms ua\config\mm1\wspheader, your arcsoft should work for now until the cab is released.

we're working on coding the setup.dll for the cab, i sent him some code last night that may help it along, but for now that should work...worked for me.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] calash:
Welcome to the wonderful world of Kitchens and Roms

With the Titan, and many other WM phones you have two main components to worry about. The Rom and the Radio.

The Rom is what gets flashed to the phone, and includes all of your software, drivers, applications, and the main OS, as well as some carrier information so you can use the phone.

The Radio, and this may be off so please correct me, refers to the firmware of the actual radio part of your phone. Kind of like flashing the bios on your computer, but more akin to firmware updates on a video card. It is the low level code that runs the hardware and allows the drivers, and in turn the Rom to do it's job

A Kitchen is an utility that is provided to allow you to create a custom Rom. If you just download a Rom and apply it, you have no control of what is in it. With a Kitchen you can "cook" your own Rom, selecting and removing components as you see fit. Once you are done it will create the Rom for you, then allow you to send it to your phone.

As complex as it sounds using the Kitchen, especially DCD's, is very easy and mostly consists of selecting from a list of options what you want. If this is your first time flashing please PLEASE do research first. Get an idea of what you will be doing, the best way to do it, and what may possibly go wrong and how to fix it. It is an easy process, but one that can leave you with a non-functional phone...or worse the dreaded brick (no display, no reaction to buttons, just like a brick with a battery)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
Calash it's cool you're trying to help him out, but let's please keep this thread on topic. There's a plethora of information for people out there to read up on about kitchens and roms. Let's keep this thread open to debugging the rom.

-connor
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
If you have never gotten it to work then you probably need a new A-Key. Call verizon and tell them you are a software developer and needed to hard reset your phone and it won't make or receive calls now. They will help you fix it. Once you get that, all upgrades after should work fine and you usually don't have to get another A-Key, at least I haven't had to on Verizon.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] crobs808:
i already got one A-key from verizon over the phone, it was super long, like 30 characters....anyway, i got that earlier today, and it worked, but on the stock/original verizon rom. i have upgraded since then (now in the process of trying your sprint method that includes the radiorom, then updating with the dcd 3.1.2 rom afterwards)

when do you do the dcd rom update....do you reboot into bootloader at the startup screen, before wm6 loads?

thanks (its loading the test sprint rom as we speak)

connor
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
You should go back into the bootloader before the Sprint rom goes into the setup screens, I usually get back to the bootloader as soon as the Radio rom reboots. You will still need a new A-Key as the one you have probably won't work. I tried reusing one once and wound up calling Verizon for another.

i reset afte rinstalling the cab file....and it show bars, but still says "signal is faded, call lost" when i try to make calls. i checked ##778, and all the numbers and nam settings are what they should be.
