OK, firstly Im on Sprint and have no personal experience with Verizon so I am just passing info, YMMV on it, but people are reporting success including with NFSFAN's ROMs so try for yourself, I cant confirm or deny as I dont use Verizon

Here in this thread there as been success reported in making some regedit changes based on new Verizon settings

Also read the bold section of the #2 quote below from Suntopper, its Verizon and the reports Ive been reading is VZW has locked down their GPS/aGPS so a reauth from customer support might be needed, again YMMV as he/she hasnt confirmed it yet but others have reported having to contact CS as well

Sorry I cant be more helpful on it, but its hard to help directly when its something/some service you dont use, but in all the threads Ive read there are so many conflicting reports, some cant some can, some report using a previous stock ROM prior to last release for the radio then flashing a custom ROM to bypass the radio versioning check, and tons of others things

In truth its hard to directly tell just whats up without VZW users calling CS themselves to see if some direct info can be gleaned from them themselves, but there is some info hope it can help someone

Edit: on this thread here there is a breakdown on setting up GPS to bypass Verizons $10/month fee, personally, make life easy and pay the money, but if you want to try this go for it

Here is the other supplemental link to the Wiki page with instructions as well - again I dont use VZW so I cant confirm anything on this, use at your own discretion and risk

1.15 Verizon or WM 6.5 ROM won't install!

My problem...does anyone else have this problem?? Neither of the roms actually gets past 0% installation. I tested to see if there was something wrong with the phone and my computer by installing the official WM 6.1 update which was released by (HTC, Verizon?) long ago. It installed without a hitch. So I can only conclude that something is not right with the actual rom installer as programmed? But it seems like most of you are having no problem installing the new WM 6.5 rom. Feedback and help would be most appreciated. Peace.

Can anyone please re-post the cab fix for the duplicate Contacts softkey on the today screen? Thank you.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Have you unlocked your phone? you state you have updated the phone using a stock ROM from HTC/VZW which is fine, but to utilize a custom ROM you need to unlock your phone.

I am suggesting this as you tried "both" of these ROMs which I am assuming you are referring to the 6.1 and 6.5 as well which eliminate a bad or corrupt download of a single file.

Read this

thread

if you havent unlocked your phone or are not sure what "unlock" refers to then attempt to flash the phone and see if it goes past 0%.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] abhik1:

this

is what your looking for, according to the change log it was fixed in V2 and the most current is V4, if your not running V4 you would be best to download and install it

Thank you, Detroit Doug. I already am running v4 and now even after installing the cab file and soft-reset, I still have duplicate Contacts softkey on the bottom of the Today screen, with no Calendar key. I disabled the Windows Default plugin before installing.

SPB Backup

Ok First I just want to say good job NFSFAN and whoever worked on this, and second I know people know about this program and may already have it but not everyone may know it's features Spb backup is 24.95 and when you back something up you can use that backup on a new rom! I got everything back even the way I set my phone preferences so if anyone wants the serial I'll post it on here

Is there a way to make my phone vibrate when and outgoing call connects? I know some opal dialers did it, I didn't know if I had the option to do this in this rom or not. If not, is there some registry hack or something I could do?

Sounds & Notifications
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jsminnis:
The settings in Sounds & Notifications is for "Data Connections" for example, when the internet connects or disconnects, What I am looking for is, for the phone to vibrate when you connect on a call. Thanx for trying..

**UPDATE**

I found a small program that will vibrate on connect, if anyone is interested. Search for REDIAL from POCKETMAX. It's Freeware. When you download the program install it to your device. It was a little tricky to figure out how to get to the settings but here it is. After program is installed go to start>settings>today>items and select anything except for "windows default". Select OK. Then on your today screen you will see a phone icon in the system tray. Select it the choose ON CONNECT=VIBRATE. Then go back to today settings and selct WINDOWS DEFAULT. Now you will have Vibrate on Connect and your wm6.5 interface.

I know this is your first post, but please read the forum rules before posting.

Offering software that a user has to pay for, with a serial so they don't is called warez and it is NOT allowed on these forums. This is a developer forum. The owners of the forum have made the rules about warez and we must all live by it to use their boards.......for free.

Developing and updating sofware or operating systems you have already payed for, ie...WM, skins for sbd etc is allowed.

I'm sure you know this, my apologies if you do. NFSFAN's 6.1 ROMS with the gsm dialer feature vibrate on connect. I believe that has been a standard feature since 1.26 (Bell version number).

It's one of the things I miss about 6.5 due to the cdma dialer, thanks for posting your fix.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Im not so sure TSK files/themes will work on WinMO 6.5 until something is developed to make alot of changes

Currently IMHO YMMV on this is with this release, all the graphics are done independently and would require altering alot of individual core graphics files for color, size/width, textures, transparencies, etc to make the changes standard across the phone and not sure anyone has the time or patience to do this or they are currently in process just havent released anything or info yet as it is still so new

Ill start looking into it though as the color cabs are a great start of where and what files are needed to be altered to make a theme in general

edit

Currently residing in the \Windows folder (where the layout, graphics, etc are) there are

65 - .bmp files

1 - .css style file

37 - .cpr files

8 - .gif files

5 - .jpg files

and ...

655 .png files!!!

now granted all these are not needed, but in time we can break down what is and isnt and work up from there LOL

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jsminnis:
Just out of curiosity, why did nfsfan go back to the cdma dialer, when the gsm is clearly winning the poll? Maybe, I missed the answer somewhere in the forum, so if I did, forgive me..

For those of you who miss the black dialer, I found some great skins for the cdma dialer on XDA, where else??

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=403484
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmitr:
Man, i'm not on the computer enough!! Thanks for responding DD.

To be clear, the GSM dialer works fine in 6.1, NFSFAN said there were difficulties in 6.5, the poll is meant for the 6.1 ROMS.

Now onto conjecture. There are some issues with the GSM dialer in the 6.1 ROMS as follows:

1. DATA arrows. While the data connection is not active, the arrows themselves are broken.

2. Conference calls. The gsm dialer does not support this feature.

3. Phone codes. They work, but you'll notice a sepatate folder for them under systems.

There is no doubt the gsm dialer looks better, slide to answer being an obvious plus. With the built in lock in 6.5 that is largely redundant.

I included this under conjecture because I am sure there are other issues / minor annoyances that I may be missing from both dialers.

Also conjecture, it may be possible in the future to use the s2a gsm dialer with 6.5. More likely an even better dialer will be ported and we'll have that instead. The diamond is cdma after all. We'll have to be patient and wait and see.

dammnn i want to know what all those pngs are for cant wait to flash.. sounds so weird haha

i was thinking in terms of selecting icons, the popup menus and message boxes mostly.. and the text that tsks usually control

will just have to fool around with it i guess

:D
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Well went through them all and looked at all the graphics a bit, and man there are ALOT of them I have yet to see used so I think many of them are simply from the original device and carrier this pre-release was ripped from and there is no need directly for them as of yet (YET being the key word there)

the majority of the files are utilized in a various way and surprising the original idea of just a simple \windows dumping of them randomly

now the interesting bit is the css cascading style sheet file and as soon as I have more time tearing into it will open up a great deal of how to go and find the needed files and even change location, names, stlyes and the like to possibly even include the option for animated backgrounds and the like as well as the various *_320x240.cpr that Im looking through now that will allow for resizing the start menu items to allow for 4, 5 and perhaps 6 across even in portrait mode and resizing the focus tab (the highlighted bar that slides up and down the main screen) for size, length, color, opacity as well as the background for all the aformentioned items as well

i like the css progress

let me know if you want/would like help with that and just send me over the file ill peer into it as well.. i wonder if all this is possible if something like m2dc could be created but for customization across 6.5.. that would be SICK :D

cannot wait for v5.. is today the day?

i DONT by any means want to rush you nfsfan.. as a fellow student i understand how hard it is to give time to this hobby and the wants of users, school, as well as balancing it all with a life!

i am purely curious :D
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
actually most of the settings are within the .cpr files (easily edited with note/wordpad) so far, Ive managed to move the start screen icons wider apart, adjust the width length of the slider tool, alter opacities and the like

not real difficult at this point to manage, but trickier to maintain as so many .cpr files exist for our device *240X320*.cpr and *320X240*.cpr files are the key so basically creating a "theme" as it were wont be difficult, just managing it all to start with is the bear of it

Unable to install Fonts

NFSFAN,

I have just started using your WM6.1 ROM and I really like it. There is one problem though. I tried to install another TAHOMA fonts (to be able to use my language), but the system would not let it overwrited the existing TAHOMA fonts. I did not have this problem in the past with stock ROM. I searched in this thread and found several had the similar problem, but nobody knows ow to solve it. Please advise.

interesting.. seems to be more customization options for 6.5 which is cool, i am betting there will be more default customization options in the final 6.5 release.. also since win7 has a SHIETload of customization options

by start menu icons wider apart do you mean the start menu icons? like the honeycomb?.. and slider tool, what is that?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Yes the honeycomb ...

slider tool in the slider/selection bar on the CHome page - basically can make the options mail, links, weather, photos, etc farther apart or closer together

Working on font color and changing the font now as well as font size/width and will go from there

The latest verizon radio is 3.37.78. I "updated" to the verizon 6.1 release when it came out because I wanted the rev A speeds. After I updated I was unable to use GPS until I followed the procedure posted by thermus (1311 on page 140). Since you apparently are not on 3.37.78 this might not help you. Did you flash the 3.42 radio after 3.37.78?

BTW, I thought the old cube would be cool to play with for awhile. It lasted a day before I flashed back to NFSFAN's ROMs! Makes me want to donate again just thinking about it. :D

I think there is a small "bug" with regard to the behavior of the Today screen in ROM 6.5 v4. The duplicate Contacts softkey is replaced by the Calendar key, but if the Windows Default plugin is enabled the duplicate Contacts softkey reappears. This occurs even with the StartMenu.cab installed.

Thank you.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] summerblink:
ya know, i don't even remember. i know that with this new phone, as soon as i got it out of the box i unlocked it with the Cokeman unlocker, and flashed with NFSAN's rom (i always want to call him NSFWFAN). so that's how i ended up with the radio i have . . .

i must fix this, my gf's using VZ Navigator on her phone and keeps laughing at my non-functional GPS!!!

help? :confused:

i tried installing another skin but it looks the same way
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] suntopper:
Doesn't sound quite right. I don't believe any of NFSFAN's ROMs change the radio. VZW has never had a phone with that high a version number. You may have stated this but did you get the phone from VZW? Was is a refurbished phone? It's hard to believe that a refurb would have a non VZW radia but I guess stranger things have happened:D I can see how it could happen!

Not sure what the best path would be. Did the phone have the cube out of the box? Do you remember if it was 6.0 or 6.1?

If you decide to do the thermus method, make sure to read his instructions twice. He does not totally follow the directions at the places he refers you to! Good Luck.
