First time poster, fairly new to XDA

NFSFAN,

First off, your ROM is simply amazing, I would almost say its nothing short of stellar. I will be donating. Maybe you can teach HTC a thing or two.

On to my question. I read in your release logs, that you removed certificates. It happened to just be a question of mine as well... as I use my work email to have 24/7 email.

Are there any plans to put certs back in, or am i stuck trying to find a work around solution so i can access exchange again?

Again, if this has been addressed or answered i'm sorry. I read all 92 pages of this, and i'm sure at some point I was guilty of scanning.

This is an amazing piece of work you have pulled off here sir. Job well done.

NFS I love your roms but is there any way to get rid of the bluetooth icon in the top status area that shows whenever bluetooth is enabled?

I leave my bluetooth on 24/7 so this icon is just useless to me and wastes screen space. It doesn't even do anything when clicked.

Post #791 of this thread by fastcrab: http://ppcgeeks.com/forum.ppcgeeks/showthread.php?p=244419#post244419 - download Vogue_Stock_bootsplash.zip, it will fix your intro animation back to a HTC logo instead of the blue bell; I just did this myself earlier today and it works perfectly.

It isn't by default, but Detroit_Doug was kind enough to upload a cab of it in post #837 of this thread.

Actually, I use BT 24/7 as well and I like that icon because it tells me which type of profile (headset or stereo) is connected.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Shidell:
If you've unlocked your phone (CoKe), then simply connect your phone via USB and run the "RomUpdateUtility.exe" from NFSFAN's package. It'll switch to bootloader mode and push the updated ROM to your phone.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
Age doesn't matter as long as it is a Vogue. There is no guarantee that you won't harm your phone. If that is your biggest concern then I suggest you stay with a factory setup.

However, if you do extensive reading and follow the directions regarding successfully flashing your phone, you will be happily rewarded.

Since flashing wipes out all data and programs, absolutely make sure, before you flash, that you have backed up everything you don't want to lose.

is there anyway to get 3g speed on the vogue? I've been using Version 13 for over 1 month now and I have no complaints. Its much faster than my stock rom n version 12. I notice that it says "3g" as connection speed but i thought that 3g connection means that you can be on the phone on go online at the same time like the "G1". Any ideas? Sorry if this question is a re-up, I've searched but haven't found a solution on this topic yet. any help toward this is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fwaits:
3g is just a new icon for EVDO that is the 3rd Gen data protocol for CDMA networks. 3g is more often heard on GSM based networks like AT&T or T-Mobile, which refers to HSDA speeds and such. They are both 3rd gen data protocols for their respective networks. Essentially nothing has change on your phone, NFSFan simply replaced the Ev icon with the 3g icon because he liked it better.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
Sprint now offers 4g network access. I'm not sure what speed we have but my data access speed has increased quite a bit in the last 1 or 2 months.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] notsilentbob:
4G is using a totally different protocol from 3G... and unfortunately the vogue doesn't have the hardware to pick it up, even if it is around in your area. You'd have to buy a new phone...

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] atoz350:
Well, you were told wrong. Sprint didn't make that decision at all. It was HTC. Hence the reason the Verizon, Bell, and Telus Vogues don't have WiFi either. They got rid of the WiFi chip in order to make room for a GPS chip, then added a faster processor and more RAM to boot.

Only the Elfin and Touch Dual feature WiFi, with the rare Touch Dual having the best of both worlds.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
It would be a good idea to get facts straight before accusing someone of being wrong:

FACT:

The decisions to do away with the WIFI along with other features had nothing to do with the manufacturer. Sprint, along with other carriers, are the ones that make the decision to disable features. You may remember GPS was disabled prior to the last official Sprint update.

With regard to WIFI:

Most Carriers felt that users would be more apt to purchase data plans, since there is no WIFI option.

However "the HTC Touch, for Rogers Wireless, is fully capable of WiFi".

Outside of the WiFi difference and GSM vs. CDMA, the Touch smartphones are nearly identical.

I was able confirm this directly with HTC. I also confirmed that the Sprint Touch does not have the WIFI disabled. It's just not there. I can't speak for other phones, except the Sprint and Rogers models.

Feel free to call HTC at 866-449-8358 to confirm these facts.

Help Vogue keeps rebooting

Last night flashed NFSFAN's v13 and after my 3rd flash the thing just keeps rebooting. I have flashed it probably 20 times trying to get it to go away. I can not revert to the stock rom either, it stops loading at 28%.

Any ideas please, I am holding a brick if this doesn't get fixed.

Help Vogue keeps rebooting

I am flashing from the PC via USB. I have hard reset the device several times. The last flash I did seemed to take better, but as soon as I hit the Internet sharing it rebooted. When I unplug or plug in the USB it reboots. It rebooted itself 3 times while typing this..

I am flashing from bootloader mode (coke .41 ).

I have never had one day of problems with this xv6900, was just looking for a better interface and features than the MR1.

I appreciate any help, the rom looks great...when it stays on.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
I would try to flash back to stock. If it stalls, do it again. don't be fooled if it sits at 20% for a few minutes. Just wait and see if it starts moving again. I have had some flashes take 30 to 40 minutes to complete, while other almost seem to go too fast. Recently I wrote my own ROM and flashed it to my phone. After it hard reset, it took almost 8 minutes to boot the first time.

My phone has completely malfunctioned before and it took me a couple of factory flashes to get it back to stable, before flashing to a modded ROM.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] DWC316:
take battery out for 5 minutes and then follow directions below

reboot, establish an activesync connection and then flash stock rom

after you flash to stock rom, then put phone in bootloader mode by disconnecting usb cable and hold the power button and camera button while pressing reset with stylus until you see the word serial, then plug in usb cable and start v13 ruu utility and flash v13 3 times letting customizations run but do a hard reset after first customization. if you have any questions refer to the link in my signature

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] br125:
coke .41 is the WRONG unlocker, you have the use the coke 2.31

After you load that you should not have problems flashing any custom roms

.41 is for non gps roms

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Berzerk54:
some other people have been having problems like this when they have a lot of inbox/outbox messages. Since it's only with certain people you message a lot, it could be the threaded messaging; excessive messages could be eating up your ram when you open up the conversation. Try deleting messages that you don't need.

If you've already done that, and still have a problem try a soft reset.

I don't really have problems with sms, but have noticed that if I don't clear out the messaging folders every so often it takes 2-3 seconds to open a message.

hope that helps.

Since you're on Telus, I don't know if the arcsoft cab will work.

Please don't confuse me with some of the less experienced on here. After all, the flash method that you keep repeating over and over was proven by me when I wrote it long ago. (Including providing the original HTC boot screen .nbh) What I said is true.

Of course, since you feel that Sprint is the only one incapable of WiFi, I guess all of the Verizon Vogues have it then.

In your own post you stated that apart from the GSM vs. CDMA, the only difference is the WiFi... Again it is confirmed that WiFi was only available in the GSM Vogues. Not a decision of Sprint, but of HTC (the manufacturer) to use a different chipset that did not include WiFi. You may also confirm this for yourself in the phone number you've provided.

Let's get focused

Guys, let's try and keep this at least somewhat focused on NFSFAN's ROM. WiFi existing and who's decision/fault etc. really has nothing to do with his ROM.

I really love what he has done for OUR phones and I know how frustrating it is having to read this type of "info" on HIS thread, and I can only imagine how he feels. What if he gets frustrated and no longer supports us, then what, then none of this will matter because our phone development will be dead.

There are lots of alternatives to posting non-ROM related info on this board. Please let's try and keep this thread focused and clean. EVERY non-related post over the past several weeks has been covered MANY times previously over the past 2+ years.

Try to remember why you read/follow this thread, support NFSFAN with some cash keep HIS thread clean from garbage.

;) We need more juniors like this! haha!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
I'm not confusing you with anyone!:rolleyes:

I'm merely pointing out that you were not totally correct with your statement. And let's remember, you replied back to me, that my statement was "wrong", without confirming anything.:mad:

I'm also not taking anything away from you, regarding any kind of method for flash success. If you feel I'm stepping on your FAME, for suggesting something you claim you discovered, then you should be the one that continues to post it, when needed. Asking for nothing in return, I'm just trying to help the ones that are experiencing problems here. After all, helping is what this thread is all about, isn't it? Besides, it is common knowledge, even with upgrading a factory ROM, that you should flash multiple times for success. You can also verify this online by doing a simple search. It's been common industry knowledge long before you proved it:confused:.

I don't feel that Sprint is the only anything. And I know the difference between GSM and CDMA, which has nothing to do with WIFI. Any network designed phone can have WIFI, if the carrier chooses to want that feature. The Mogul was a CDMA phone and it had WIFI, so we both can agree that a CDMA phone is capable of having WIFI.;)

Since there was so much negative customer feedback, the new model HTC phones now have WIFI capabilities. This was a decision of the carriers. As a result, the CDMA Touch Pro and Diamond have WIFI. I repeated exactly what my business tech supervisor, from HTC, told me. This isn't something that is a hobby to me.

Therefore, I DID confirm everything from HTC, before making my statement.:cool:

It is common knowledge, in the industry that the carriers have the manufacturer's designed phones built to their specs and features preferences. This can be verified by conversing live with an HTC supervisor.

I'm sorry you feel you are more important than the rest of us, that are trying to help. If it makes you feel any better, you are partially correct.;) Manufacturers make the decisions on design and manufacturing techniques. Carriers determine what features are enabled or disabled. Sometimes it is hardware based and sometimes it is ROM BIOS based.

Of course ROM based is so much better for all of us, when we have someone like NFSFAN around. :)
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
Actually a discussion of whether WIFI exists or not has something to do with his ROMs. The rest of the BS is just that. Unfortunately some feel the need to fluff feathers once in a while. For me, I'm just here to offer help to others that may need it. I ask nothing in return, but maybe some help when I need it. I admitt I got a little emotional when I posted my last post.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Andrewwelton:
I agree with you that these garbage posts should not be being made and cluttering up the thread making it hard to find fixes for problems people may be having with this ROM. (Heck even I read it time to time to see if theres any fixes for problems my ROM's having.)

Also, to the phone development going dead if NFSFAN stops supporting, I partially agree with that. His ROM and work represents a large portion of the Vogue development, but he is not the only chef on the Vogue.

Now lets try and get back on topic with NFSFAN's great ROM. :)
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] DWC316:
could not have said that any better:D
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] DWC316:
your right in the fact that he is not the only chef for the vogue but you wont find a better chef than NFSFAN for the vogue. the other chef's use ppckitchen where NFSFAN does not.i've tested all the roms in the vogue development section and none of them even compare to NFSFAN'S ROMS. let me tell you a lil about NFSFAN cause he's a friend of mine, he builds his roms from scratch, he designed and made his own kitchen to build his roms which are not premade like ppc kitchen. he spends countless hrs building the best rom for the vogue so in a sense, if he stops making roms for us then the vogue development will stop unless you count a premade ppc kitchen rom development for the vogue, which i do not. i personally wont use anybody else rom except NFSFAN'S cause i know im getting the best:D
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
It's funny you mentioned this because I fool around, from time to time, with creating my own ROMS. I use PPCKitchen (nothing wrong with it), to create my ROMs, for various phones, in my posession. I recently created a ROM, for the Vogue, to the exact specs of NFSFAN's ROM (meaning I included all of the programs and features I could find in PPCKitchen). The end result was not at all the same. While my ROM was stable and worked as it should, I had battery drain problems, some 3rd party software screws up the phone and it was not as fast as his ROMs.

So he gets my vote as well. This is the main reason I try to support his ROM and this thread. Hopefully he will continue to support the Vogue. I can get any HTC phone I want, and also have a stock Pro and Diamond, but the Vogue is a great model. The others just don't feel right in my hand.

Spontaneous hard resets!

Hi guys! I need advice! I have HTC Touch with Bell. I've tried at least 3 last versions of NFSFAN's ROMs and all have the same problem: very soon the phone will either freeze or after a normal shutdown or reset will just hard reset on its own.

I've done everything according to FAQ, including double and triple hard resets, and otherwise it works fine, but within 2-3 days of use a spontaneous hard-reset it almost guaranteed. Sometimes it hard-resets and then tries to configure some cyan-colored version of windows that looks different from default ROM settings and it freezez, requiring another hard reset or two, until it gets to default black-gray version. This did not happen with Bell ROM, it was rock-stable. I tried not installing anything at all above the ROM itself - no use, same problem. I love NFSFANs ROM, and most of all the possibility to turn of data connection - with Bell ROM if you change anything in data connection (like 777 to 776) it just resets settings on its own, resulting with unavoidable data roaming in US. This is the main reason I need other ROM and can't go back to Bell stock ROM. I'd love to make it work. What else can I try to fix this problem???

I'm desperate at this point, please help if you can. Thanks!

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Andrewwelton:
Yeah, I kind of figured as much that he did not use ppckitchen (I do, but I am trying to figure out another one to use) and I understand that he makes a lot of the stuff for his roms himself. But, from what I have experienced, making your own stuff for everything is VERY hard, which is why so many people use ppckitchen, because it lets you get your feet wet and learn. And to be entirely honest, there is nothing wrong with the ppckitchen stuff. My rom, and the other chefs (WDM, vin etc) work just fine and it is built with BuildOS. (even though many are switching I believe) Everyone has their own taste for ROMS, so whats best for you (NFSFAN) may not be the best for everyone else (ie, me, which is why I started building in the first place.)

If NFSFAN were to leave, it wouldn't matter. On ppcgeeks there are still many who are committed to the advancement of Vogue development, and they dont ask for money every chance they get :)

Junior?? Let's see, I joined THIS forum Mar 2008, you?? I have been a BETA tester since Version 2 of his original Rom, back when he arrived on the PPCGeeks scene and was able to get the GPS working (Somewhat.) I followed him over to PPCHaven when he got banned from PPCGeeks and then over to here. By that point I didn't feel like posting much on this board, as I haven't found a need to since just about EVERY question has already been covered probably 50times. I am a senior member on a couple other boards and have been supporting users of the vogue for more than 2 years. I know you don't know me, however, making a judgment against me based on my post count is rather ignorant and immature.

Ughh!! Look what you made me do, I am posting a useless non-ROM related post in the thread I wished could be cleaned up. I miss the old days when NFSFAN would actually come through and clear out all the useless posts, but I think he is going for a million to set a record.
