Well here's the deal...

On newer roms, I have to dial *22802 everytime I do a reset, just to get my network connection back to make calls...and have to call verizon to get a new A-key if I want to continue to use my data. The GPS doesnt work anyway, even thought I did everything it said in terms of setting com4, then 4800 baud, etc...

Also, out of the box upgrade to 3.1.2 installation I cannot use calls or data anyway, it is a pain in the butt to get everything configured, AND the verizon rep has to release my ESN and reattach it to the account, anytime I flash to 3.1.2 just to get calls working, and thats not even data.

I guess verizon is different in other parts of the country, but here in dalas, flashing to 3.12, trying to use internal gps, and other radio roms is pretty much a waste of time, and makes your device unbearable to use.

besides, the initial installation that verizon puts on the phone is actually faster than these newer updated roms from dcd...sorry to say, i think it is wishful thinking on the part of those who are customizing their phones, but everything was MUCH slower with the 3.1.2 rom than wth the verizon stock rom.

Thanks anyway, reverting back to the stock rom and radio since gps doesnt work anyway, and having to reactivate EVERYTIME i do a reset and get a new AKEY everytime is just ridiculous.

BOTTOM LINE - Everything woks great in the stock rom/radio///the SECOND I upgrade the radio or the rom, I cannot send or receive calls, and I cannot use any data features (even though none of the numbers/settings in the #778 menu changed)

Oh well, back to the stock rom, guess I cannot join in the fun of customizing with you guys :(

Let me ask this regarding the whole MMS thing, if you use an application like pocketCM 2.1 do you NEED to install any arcsoft MMS app?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nosmohtac:
Having the same problem here.

I installed ROM from first post and then the Sprint Carrier Cab file.

Dialer pops up after every program I install and after I close out of every program.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
I still think there is a common thing that all of you with dialer problems are doing...because through testing before release and now actually using the rom now that it is released, I've flashed this TONS and TONS of times and I've never replicated this issue.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nosmohtac:
I have flashed a ton of ROMs. I've always done it the same way, I've never had any problems in the past.

I've got no dialer problems as far as EPST (##778#). The dialer just keeps coming to the front when I close out of programs or after installing a new one.

I'm not a noob when it comes to installing ROMs and have never had any difficulties when installing them.

I've read enough of these forums to know that what your proposing is logical, but at the same time, there are also quite a few strange behaviors that happen on some but not all of the mogul's even though the hardware is the same.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
So wouldn't that lead one to believe that it's in fact not a problem with the rom?

I'm not doubting your knowledge when it comes to this stuff...all I'm saying is that I've literally flashed this rom about 30 times in the past 3 weeks on both a Verizon Wireless xv6800 and on a Sprint Mogul to test it, and I've never seen this issue on either one.

There has to be something in common going on with your devices causing this.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] studentjunk:
You sound really said to be using stock rom. Is this the only version you have tried flashing? You may want to consider dcd 3.0.4. I have been afraid to go up to 3.1.2 since my 3.0.4 is working so well for me. I am also using radio 3.39.10. I always (twice now) flash the radio from the sd card that came with the device and have not lost any data.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ebb:
Obviously there's a conflict with one of the selections. I had it with verizon, loaded another dialer via cab, and the problem went away. Shouldn't be an issue for others to do likewise instead of abandoning the ROM for this minor issue.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
yeah, and im going back to an automatic toyota corolla because nothing happens when i hit the gas in this standard ferrari.

seriously though, if you'd like to give it another shot you can pm me and i will attempt to walk you through it/do it for you/whatever you need via AIM or MSN.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
Conner, after you flash, do you automatically use *228 without even testing? In all kitchen releases, dating back to 1.7.0, I have never had to use OTA provisioning. Maybe there's something going on with Verizon on their end that every time you provision with *228, it causes problems.

I'd say give it another shot, start from scratch, follow the instructions carefully, build a CLEAN 3.1.2 rom with only the essentials....no OEM's, no bloat. Flash it and the radio, then don't use OTA and see what happens. Even when you call for your A-key and the dumbass tech support moron tells you to *228 option 1, just tell him you did, but don't. See what happens.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ryanbg:
Alright I am determined to fix this text messaging problem. I am going to attempt everything possible right now...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
you could try this (on vz)

this resets the PRI to factory default

not sure why this would have any effect. but since i cant reproduce it and it survives a rom flash, it could be PRI.

after you install the cab, there is a shortcut for 'radio refurbish' in programs.

credits to nexvizion/tiermann for finding. i packaged this cab and made shortcut, it was the cab out of the vz extrom.

i believe this is the same fix as flashing back to stock and letting customizations run. (vz)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ryanbg:
To be honest I have no idea what I just did, if I did anything, but on my second flash texting started to work again! I will see if I can reproduce the situation.

Dialer Popup

I was the having the same issue with the dialer popup.

I narrowed it down to sbp pocket plus 4.0. As soon as that cab was installed the dialer popup started. Just unistalling wouldn't stop it.

You have reflash each time and then narrow down the app that is causing the issue.

I switched to ilauncer 3 and all the same progs as before and now problems.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
you should only have to hard reset if you are installing them as cabs.

on another note:

the next release will not require a carrier cab. instead, you will be prompted to select carrier at first boot. PRI updates should also be worked out so we dont have anymore problems resulting from running sprint customizations.

Battery help

This past weekend I threw DCD 3.1.2 on a stock VZW XV6800 I got off of ebay. Everything's working great...GPS, texts, MMS and calls fully functional...push email is coming in before it hits my Outlook on my work PC.

Only problem I'm having is battery life. In the three days I've been using it, I'd say I'm getting an average of 9.5 hours out of the battery. This is with about a total of an hour of emailing/texting on it each day, 5-10min of calls, bluetooth on but not connected to anything, and wifi off.

Here's what I have installed:

Radio 3.39

DCD 3.1.2

Kaiser's HTC Home

TCPMP .72 RC1

PocketCM 0.15

Esmertec Jbed 20080222

Opera Mini

Arcsoft MMS 3.0.16.6

LiveSearch (probably going to delete)

Skype

Google Maps

PHMRegEdit

SlingPlayer Mobile

ArielBattery2

Here's what I typically have running (at least what shows up in the Task Manager):

Java (for Opera)

Outlook

Activesync

Task Manager (obviously)

I emailed the previous owner of the phone, and he didn't say if he used the push email or not, but he did say he would typically get about 24 hours of life out of it. I used it for about 2 days before flashing the ROM, and I'd say that seemed fairly acurate.

I can't imagine 10 hours is normal. What do most people get out of the stock battery?

If anyone has any recommendations so that I don't have to spend the time going back to an older ROM and installing everything over again, they'd be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately, I don't really have the time to refresh ROMs and start testing this out one program at a time.

I've seen before if you turn off Activesync it will help, but I do need push emails.

THANKS!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
It is definitely the email push. I barely get 24 hrs out of an extended battery during the week but since the weekend is off peak time I have active sync set for every 15 mins. I easily get the battery to last all weekend. Plus my signal strength is crap where I live so I think that is part of it as well, MS voice command says my signal strength is between 10% and 30% and will jump between 1X and EV when I am in my basement office.

Hope that helps.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] chuckda4th:
Do you have the extended battery that requires the new back door, making the device thicker?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] andsoitgoes:
I'm having the dialer issue, too - I thought it was just "how it worked"

I'll close outta a program and zip, there she goes. I have a fair number of SPB plugins going (Diary, Pocket Plus, Weather and Phone Suite) - so maybe they're doing it?

It's not the end of the world for me, I just keep on closin. Gets to be a pain though.

I need to upgrade my radio, but that's one of the last things I want to fiddle with. I know I did it to get to 3.35... but well, that's one thing I don't see in the Wiki, any thoughts on EASIEST way to upgrade that there radio?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nosmohtac:
I apologize. You are correct, sir. I narrowed it down to SPB Pocket Plus.

It is usually one of the first programs I install and It has never caused any issues in the past.

I reflashed and ran with minimal programs installed and had no issues until I installed PP.

I stand corrected.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Zenoran:
has no one noticed memory leak with these roms?

I really hadn't thought much of it and thought it was a common windows mobile problem having yer RAM sucked down slowly throughout the day... but recently I tried no2chem's rom and it ALWAYS restores back to 20mb free, whereas a dcd rom would slowly suck it dry down to 12mb- by the end of the day and require a reboot.

Seems like a fairly significant problem has no one else noticed this????
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ebb:
I am running Pocket Plus 4.02. Had the dialer issue when I first loaded the ROM, but installed a different dialer on top, and problem went away. Don't know if you guys are running the .02 version of PP4, and whether you have tried a different dialer. Worked for me.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ebb:
DCD, you are Top Chef, but I for one would like to cast a lonely vote for continuing to make available the carrier cabs. They are not only easy to install, whether by UC or not, but also have made the no2chem roms and ppckitchen roms functional for verizon data services.

Not optimistic that my opinion is shared, but then again, I voted for Hillary.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
they will still be available if you choose to extract them. they are just going to be all included and a menu will pop up on first boot.

if i can get my mortscripts to work right it will be nice, mms carriers will have option to download and install latest mms, and PRI programming will be automated.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
Yes, got a great deal on eBay for it. Still got it to fit in the Verizon leather holster for it as well. Just barely.

Bump this post, I used to run SPB Mobile Shell and I thought the memory leak was because of that program but I stopped running it recently and usually get down to around 14-15MB from 19.5MB after a soft reset. Is this normal?

gps

just wondering, to all those who say they get gps locks in under 10 seconds, or something close to it,

what do you have under:

HKLM\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS

---> GPSMode = ?

mine was at 2, and i read that changing it to 4 helps. was wondering if others had done the same, or something similar.

i dont mean to start a whole conversation about why gps takes so long for some, i know it can be a crapshoot, but its tough enough for me to get a lock in NYC with all the buildings etc, so ill take any help i can get.

thanks

edit: my gpsmode goes back to 2 after changing it to 4 then soft reset, and idea about that and how to fix it?

GPS on mogul Qwest carrier not working

I flashed with the sprint leaked to get the latest radio. (from ppcgeeks) hopefully that isn't the problem. Didn't let customizations run. Cooked 3.1.2 kitchen and everything works great except for two things. When connected to activesynch it will suddenly lose connection after 8-10 mins. Seems to happen consistently the same time (haven't timed it yet..)

GPS not working at all. Sits and hangs looking for gps seems to cycle between searching and the other msg fairly quickly. Searching... Satellites found (x) etc etc.

So why isn't the gps working when it worked with sprint (official) 3.35 and dcd 3.0.4? Is it the 3.1.2? or the leaked sprint test rom not having gps enabled? Is anyone else having this issue?

Thanks

SMS problems

I went through pretty much this entire thread and kept reading about arcsoft and MMS and how 3.1.2 was missing this. Now I don't know what MMS is or if it's related to my problem, but I am unable to send sms messages since I've installed this rom. It's not the worst thing in the world for me but it would be nice if I could get it to work.

When I try to send a message it gives me a error message (which i can't seem to recall)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] maccaberry:
Link on the first page to the excellent work by Sleuth255

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=366337

Start reading. Loading the cabs automatically is really simple. The reg edits etc are a little harder but once you get it all working you will never fear flashing a new rom again. Even for a few minutes of testing and then flashing back is a simple matter and your machine is always exactly the way you want it. Even hard resets are not a problem anymore.

Enjoy
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] maccaberry:
SMS and MMS are almost completely unrelated. In terms of the functionality of your rom, having or not having MMS (arcsoft) will not effect SMS at all.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] maccaberry:
I find that the gps issues seem to be an issue with any radio. However the new 3.39 radio does seem to give a good lock, but I swear 3.37 radio was better. I stayed with rom dcd 3.04 because I couldn't see a great deal of difference with rom dcd 3.12. But I have tried all the radios extensively and for me 3.37>3.39>3.35. That being said, I am currently on 3.39 because I dont see much difference and I assume that the newer radio might have better battery usage.

If I use my built-in USB port on my laptop I can use activesync with "advanced network capability" enabled. But if I use the USB port on the side of my external monitor I cannot get activesync to work consistently unless I turn off the "advanced network capability". (start>settings>system>USB to PC)

I am almost certain that the dcd rom version (3.0.4 or 3.1.2) wont make any difference to radio (i.e. gps) issues.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mooncraterx:
Gps..

I wonder if its the test sprint rom that flashes the new radio. It is a test rom and may not have gps functionality turned on within the base rom itself? Of course flashing to dcd 3.1.2 i thought replaced it. (but I do get the test only splash screen when booting..)

I have searched here and ppcgeeks in all forums and see many posts about gps failing to work for people, and others saying its fine. When my gps was working great with .35 radio and 3.0.4. i wonder why it wouldn't work at all now...

I didn't flash the qwest.cab extension that is posted with 3.1.2. maybe this is why? I didn't let the customizations run on the sprint test rom flash, so didn't think this was necessary.. and am a bit nervous to do it.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:

Apparently Olipro 2.40 did not install fully..I am sure my fault. I upgraded to 3.1.2 and now I am stuck on the Verizon screen. Just confirming I bricked it. :mad: Anything I can do to fix?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gbenj:
load the verizon stock rom.

i had the same problem the first time i upgraded my phone from stock, thought i installed the bootloader, radio didnt load correctly because of it, but rom loaded, and was stuck in reboot on verizon screen, i loaded the stock verizon rom, then made sure my bootloader was the right one, then flashed radio, then dcd rom.

worked after that, i dont know off hand where the stock verizon rom could be found, but im sure a quick search could dig it up. load that, and you should be able to boot up.

then try again, make sure to follow instructions to the T, after unlocking, make sure the splash screen reads 2.40 then load radio then rom whichever way u want.

i usually do a "official" carrier release for radio, then reflash the rom BEFORE the carrier customizations run. dont even tap the screen.

also, for the future, i think bricked means that it wont even start at all, just sits there with a black screen...wont do anything except be an expensive paperweight. doesnt seem like you have that.

good luck

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gbenj:
i think you missed a little of the reading material.

i just read it again, and the instructions there are really for if you want to go back from a functional rom to stock, which you dont have.

so...

to get the device back into bootloader(tri-colored screen) hold power, camera, and tap reset button on the bottom. then the device should be recognized by your computer, and you should be able to run the stock rom.

someone can correct me if i am wrong, but dont know how many other people are online at 10am on a sunday.

ill check back, but let me know if that worked.

try reading the wiki and other info to understand exactly what to do

gbenj - I was hitting the wrong buttons to restart...I'm just a dumb monkey. I was able to load OEM ROM and I am at the "tap screen for setup". I have not loaded the radio yet, but I never loaded the new radio either. Do I reset and load radio and than let customizations run? Thanks!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gbenj:
depends what you want to do, if u want to stick with the verizon rom, then tap, customize...go use, but if you want to go for what u started to do, which is load dcd 3.1.2, then u need to follow the instructions on the front page,

i dont know the proper steps off the top of my head, so i wont try to say them and mess you up.

read the wiki, but basically what you need is...

1) the device to be unlocked, make sure the bootloader says olipro 2.4

2) then flash the radio

3) then the rom

there are lots of ways to get the radio you need, read the sticky on the titan upgrading page, theres a list of which roms are compatible with and need which radios.

make sure you are sure of what you are doing before you get started again.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] n00b_bricker:
I have read through and made my own notes. Can you or someone review to make sure I do it right?

At this time I have reflashed with Verizon OEM ROM. I am at the OEM screen asking me to tap to setup.

1. Do not tap to setup. Hard reset to tri-color screen.

2. Make sure activesync is connected.

3. Run Olipro 2.4

4. Once Finished hard reset and make sure Olipro 2.4 is bootloader.

5. Put radio 3.39 on micro SD with proper format. Rename to TITAIMG.nbh

6. Insert into phone while at tri-color screen. Run flash.

7. When finished hard reset to tri-color screen.

8. Copy over new rom 3.1.6 to micro SD card and rename to TITAIMG.nbh

9. Insert card into phone and run flash.

10. When done hard reset and sync to run locker.

11. Softreset and boot into OS and run customizations and run Verizon carrier cab.

12. Dial **228 for VZ to run setup

Is this it? Thanks again
