Hi everyone,

I am basically brand new at this. Is there either a step-by-step guide available, or more preferrably someone who could take the time to help me work this out from start to finish? The only success I've had in the past is through loading things directly to my MicroSD card and installing them by placing things onto the card through my computer. However, I almost bricked my phone the last time I tried this, and I would appreciate it greatly if I had someone to hold my hand through the process (figuratively, of course :) ) My Yahoo! Messenger name is kjoey35.

Thanks so much.

I need the RUU Utility, to go back to ther Verizon stock ROM (wm6). The link on the wiki doesn't work, and winrar says the nbh file is not an archive.....

thanks
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kflipproductions:
the nbh file is what you need to flash. do you have an SD card?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Zenoran:
Ya I was actually trying the same thing... I hadn't really tried to put the switch in a DCD rom til this release, but recently got kinda used to having it in my builds... for some reason this OEM isn't functional in a dcd ROM... the control panel app works and it appears to be setting properly but the actual functionality doesn't work.. I'm wondering if the actual wifiswitch DRIVER is in another package and the config util is the OEM we're thinking?

EDIT:

hmm.. nevermind that... nueWiFiSwitchDriver.dll is one of the directories in the OEM... i have no idea why it's not working.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
Kitchen question

Is there a file that the Kitchen makes that I can just double click on or run something else to flash that ROM I built instead of building a new one everytime I need to change my UC settings? I have a couple of CABs that lock up the UC and building a new ROM 5 times with the same settings is getting old.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lllboredlll:
hahahahaha DCD that's the dip**** that flamed me for defending you back at the beginning of the year. I beleive I actually fowarded you his stupid lil pm. It was a good laugh for us then and actaully I'm laughing at his dumbass now. And I quote "after days of using" your 1/2 a day old rom .....lol....
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lupiniii:
Hey guys, sadly I'm starting to feel like I should be licking a window on the short bus. :(

I have always managed to get everything I need to work when flashing new ROMs, but for whatever reason can't get my Internet to connect this time. I first ran into this when I tried 3.2.3. I did a bunch of things, but to no success. Then 3.2.5 came out and I figured I'd give it a try hoping it would fix the issue. Alas I seem to be on the same short bus...

Let's see I updated the radio to 3.42.30, then flashed the cooked 3.2.5 kitchen, then ran the VZW cab. I also dialed out to *228 and did both programming options 1 (phone) and 2 (roaming), lastly I opened the wireless connection and input my username/password/domain, but I still get an error message telling my I can't connect. I don't know what else to do. (FYI, this is the #777 data call, the WiFi works just fine.)

What am I missing?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
Make sure you are flashing the latest carrier cab as there were some changes, although I see that it is the same for 3.2.3 and 3.2.5 for Verizon.

Also I don't think you need to do this, I have never needed to do it on Verizon:

"I opened the wireless connection and input my username/password/domain"
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
Just hard reset. Reverts back to when you first flashed, UC runs, etc.

In Settings->Device Information, what does it say for PRI Version?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nitro66215:
in the RUU folder of the Kitchen... the last RUU_Signed.nbh is in there... so... if you just run ROMUpdateUtility.exe... it should grab that as the "New" rom that was just built.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. This saves the "Rebuild"
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] genesis165:
I read Post#81, but the response is somewhat confusing to me. I'd like to know if it is possible to use nueWiFiSwitch with this rom. If so, is there a cab somewhere that we can use? I got used to it in N2C's rom's and LOVE the functionality, but DCD's rom is sooo fast!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lupiniii:
In Settings->Device Information, what does it say for PRI Version?

The PRI is: 1.35_002

Also, I think I'm running the latest cab: "Verizon Carrier 20080719.cab"

I see the PRI in dcd's screen shot says 2.04_003... I think mine is old.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
What exactly are you putting in for those fields? You shouldn't be putting anything into the domain field...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lupiniii:
I called VZW and the they told me the following.

Username: cell#@vzw3g.com

Password: vzw

Domain: vzw3g.com

(I didn't think this was right either because I never needed it before, but I figured since it came straight from the horses mouth...)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] sharper4:
Sorry - I know I'm a noob - but you did put back your A-Key, right?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mkenny2:
Up and Running on 3.2.5! Now time to re-install all of my programs lol....Thanks DCD!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lupiniii:
I have never had to in the past. Every install I ever did until 3.2.3 worked great -error free. Either I'm a magician or it speaks to dcd's quality workmanship... Oh how I wish I was a magician!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] belmont:
updated rom and everything running smootly...i tried upgrade PRI in settings connection tab and it failed...anyone else have try the option ? is the first time i saw it and tested.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nitro66215:
From what I understand... you only have to do the A-Key everytime you change your radio rom from a Non-GPS to a GPS. Just flashing the Main ROM... ie... DCD 3.2.3 to DCD 3.2.5... you won't have to. My opinion is that if you flash the Radio rom at all.... these keys and codes will need updating. I could be wrong.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nitro66215:
mkenny .. I'm not saying you don't know this... but you do know that if you have installable cabs for your programs... you can do a UC customization file that will automatically install these programs for you.

If not... here's the Wiki...

UC Wiki
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] magicray:
Is it just me having problems with the GPS.

TOMTOM also hangs and respondes after 60 sec of waiting - doesn't even find the GPS device. Any help would be good.

Thanks
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mkenny2:
I know I need to set that up but I am still deciding on what software I like etc....it is always changing....Eventually I will use UC :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] datalife321:
No, I am having problems with GPS as well. But cant seem to get a reply from anyone thus far.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
That is absolutely wrong, and the CSR who told you that should be fired. The username and password is right, but leave the domain blank. Also, make sure you don't put a 1 in front of your cell number in the username, should only be your 10 digit phone number.

For the people having problems with GPS, are you sure you have Location On in Phone Settings and not 911 Only? If so, and you're still having problems, install Holux GPS Viewer and scan your com ports. When it gets to COM4, it should say "Found GPS!". If it doesn't, then you haven't properly updated your radio and it needs to be reflashed.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kdj67f:
I have said it before and I will say it again: DCD definitely has the best ROMs!

Thanks to all who put effort into this.

Naysayers can go hug a ****.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nitro66215:
I'm not having much luck either... then again... I'm in a tin/brick building. :-(
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] pavlak21:
DCD you rock man i always flash and used your roms

great and fast to bad i cannot run skype but i know its not your problem it's skype :(

but no matter what i will stuck with your ROMS
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] banzaiwolfe:
My GPS doesn't seem to be getting a lock either, even went outside. My phone isn't set to e911 only, either.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lupiniii:
So would updating the A-Key also update the PRI? Or is that something else I need to do separately?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scrawnyb:
GPS isn't working here either... I think it's fooked again in this ROM... at least for some of us. I think I might recook mine one more time with the old GPS drivers and see if it works fine then.

EDIT: Wait, my Location Setting got turned off somehow, everyone check to make sure their's is on... Turn it off and back on if need be.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dalvarez7:
Wifi on after reset

I've skimmed through the pages and I don't think anyone else is having this issue, but when I reset my phone the wireless is turned on even though the hardware switch is turned off. It's possible one of the cabs I installed is the problem (perhaps spb mobile shell). Has anyone else seen this? I'm going to flash the ROM again with just the defaults and no apps to see if it goes away. Not a big deal...All you have to do is turn the hardware switch on then off then all is good.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] 760hacker:
I noticed this same problem in 3.2.2 but haven't noticed yet in 3.2.5. Not sure what coudl be causing it but I am sure its not Mobile Shell as I don't have that installed and it still happens. I tried messing with the comm manager and turning it off and on in there but no luck either.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lupiniii:
I swear VZW hates me... :( Their CSR always give me the wrong info. I removed the doamin and tried with and without the 1 in front of the number, but still not working. I've been searching through a bunch of threads to find out how to update the PRI and the A-Key -I'm still looking.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scrawnyb:
You can update the A-Key thru activating an old phone on your account, then reactivating your phone...

On the PRI issue, isn't that done thru *228 option #2 ?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] worldwidepmp:
Been having that problem since 3.2.0. learned to live with it, no problem.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
GPS is working fine for me, and TomTom version 7 starts the GPS and works just fine for me.

I am having issues with the MS voice command CAB that I purchased from Handango. It won't install and after reboot if I try the settings menu it locks up.

I am going to try the OEM and see if it has all the features. That seemed to install from the kitchen but will test via my headset.

EDIT: Looks like the OEM is working fine. I will have to learn not to use the cab again. Now to fix all my UC XML issues. :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
Your PRI is fine, don't touch it. If you can make calls, you don't need a new A-Key.

If the connection settings aren't working and you've tried *228 option 1, *22899, and have tried calling Verizon to have them remove your data plan from your account, then re-add it, and you still have no working data, you should reflash the radio and rom and install nothing but the Verizon carrier cab. Use the one posted below.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
Not seeing that on my phone. WiFi has been working fine for me.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] thelionelking:
GPS works great for me. Quickest lock ever on a DCD Rom, no priming either.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lupiniii:
One of the first things I did was make sure to turn on the the Location Settings ans verify the ports. GPS didn't work, but I think it has to do with my "other" issue.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lupiniii:
Thanks GC. I'll give it a try, while keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for the best. :D
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ebb:
I have 3.2.5 loaded and have no issues with gps or otherwise. On verizon, and using BAFS GPStoggler today plugin to prime the gps. GC's large start menu appears to work.

Thanks guys for another winner!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] worldwidepmp:
Oh it works fine for me too just occasionally after a soft reset it pops up with the hardware switch set to off.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] flyers2114:
:cool:

Agreed!!!!!!!!!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
My only issue was a hardware issue with the switch where it wouldn't turn on the WiFi radio. I got the phone replaced and haven't had any issues since.

Long day, flashing before I go home.

Ok, so its been a long day and I wanted to polish off the day by flashing to DCD's newest. Hit a snag...

Few weeks ago I flashed 3.2.2 last via USB cable. Just tried flashing 3.2.5 and the .exe gets an error saying it is not a valid Win32 app? hmm?

What am I doing wrong because I don't see any others having this problem.

EDIT: Downloaded from Mirror and i'm off and running. Weird that the DL from DCD's host site give me the win32 error

Thanks!

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] PapstDFrisco:
I'm having issues with GPS too.

I was having problems with intermittent tower connections until I did the QPST fix for the GPS - at least it seems to have helped that.

I ran the GPS viewer - and it found the GPS first pass. I've also tried the HTC GPS tool. Basically the same result. I put the latest BAF toggler in the ROM - about ready to try it as a CAB and without. Also verified the location setting is on and not on 911 only.

I think I have yet to see/lock a satellite yet.

As far as I can tell, everything else seems to be working.

Well the intermittent tower connection is back - so much for that...

This is the 1st pass of upgrading my replacement phone.

I have noticed a couple of discrepancies with some of the items:

PRL: on original 50895 now 51056

PRI: same version cksum different

Protocol: original acaaaam-4070 now: dcaaxam-4350

So, I'm not sure what to think....any ideas?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] acorso:

Error when connecting via USB (without Advanced Networking)

My employer blocks connections via the Advanced Networking so I can't use that method.

I'm getting a "Connection not Valid" screen and the error states

Cannot open the connection '`57600 Default'. This connection is no longer valid or does not exist. Select a different connection and try again.

Worked fine previous to flashing... any ideas?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scrawnyb:
go into the settings, uncheck USB, okay out of it, go back in, and check USB again, should be fine after that.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gspitman:
Thanks! That worked.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
I assume you have done a soft reset for grins. I have seen the phone get like that once in a while and a soft reset fixes it to work great.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kdj67f:
After testing for a full day, I can say that my wifi is working great (had issues in 3.2.3) GPS and everything else is working great also.

I was doing some reading and those of us running "older" versions of WMWifirouter may have broken our wifi when installing without the wifi turned on. That is the one common element of the posts with the same kind of symptoms I had. I never thought about uninstalling it to test, as I figured I would just be flashing again anyways.

I probably did the exact same thing over and over again, installing everything at once and not having wifi on when doing it.

Just another theory of mine, cobbled together from threads here and at ppcgeeks.

Just goes to show what a little searching can do!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] UnbreakabIe:
hey dcd and guys, awesome work, my first time flashing to your rom......so far so good, only problem im having is getting the radio rom on there...i read through the faq but what RUU am i supposed to use.....

thanks guys
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] PapstDFrisco:
Got away from the area that I was working on all this and everything started working. I really did not expect this. That my reception worked much better at this location with verizon's stock radio (obviously not GPS). Normally one to two bars. With the new rom/radio, mostly no service to two bars and mostly no service with an occasional pop to service then away again. My previous phone worked about the same as the stock and gps would find 3 to 5 sats but not lock. This one must have the lower end of the tolerances for the circuits. Because limited service and gps not even seeing one sat in this location. Obviously this location is a tougher reception spot than I realized.

I'm wondering if the Protocol differences and/or PRL differences could cause this? Or is it just the phone not have quite the same reception? Or could it be something that I have not even considered?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] indagroove:
You pretty much gotta flash from sd. I tried going back to olipro 1.2 and flashed the radio via usd, but then I got in an endless soft reset loop. No probs with the sd method though.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Hypeo:
Get the latest radio and place it in the root of your flash card and upgrade that way.

here is the link for the radio.

Make sure you follow directions on how to install it, with a little reading you should be good.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Hypeo:
I didn't have to downgrade to 1.2 at all, my sd method accepted my upgrade. I guess I was one of the lucky ones.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lafester:
no you weren't lucky.

the sd method works with either spl.

if you want to run it from pc then you need 1.2

Too much heat?

Anyone else experiencing a warm tingly sensation with the latest rom?

In all serious, I'm finding that the back of the phone is heating up more than it did with the stock rom. I could use the stock rom for hours without the back getting warm.

But now it gets warm as if its been charging for a while, even after a few minutes of use.

Face Contact Conflict

It seems that Face Contact doesn't work with this ROM for me. I installed the pre-built ROM and then all my programs including Face Contact and it was fine until I reset. I re-flashed again with just the pre-built ROM and only installed Face Contact and after a reset it disappears from the Today screen and the "Items" in the "Today Settings".

I think it might be conflicting with something in the newer version of Windows because for kicks I tried it with No2Chem's 2.2pre8 ROM and had the same issue.

3.2.3 does not have this problem.
