No did not let the customizations run. It all went smooth. I did find this message....

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=416908&highlight=verizon

So I am calling Verizon....

Is there a way to not have to call Verizon? Will this happen with EVERY flashed ROM? Or is it only when you unlock with IMcoke's utility?

What a PITA!

Scott
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Scott_T:
Well, I hope this thread can help others...

I did have to call Verizon to reset. Now the gal who answered did sound cute, but it took 20 minutes of her reading her scripts until she escalated me to 2nd level support.

10 minutes there and they did the A-Key update....

So all is working..

But more importantly, what causes this? Will it happen with every ROM or just the first you flash?

Regards,

I know I have to call in every time I Master Reset my stock XV6900 so I imagine it's the same issue with a new flash as well. Something about this phone makes them manually update it on their end I guess.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheChampJT:
You should only need to do this if you update the Radio. But, I've flashed two radios to date, and only on the first did I need to call VZW. I've flashed quite a few ROMs and had to call maybe twice.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] dekeMX:
I helped a buddy upgrade his Verizon XV6900 radio to the sprint radio. We ran into all kinds of problems with his phone. No internet, phone searched for thirty minutes and when it got a signal would sometimes randomly shut off. We fixed everything by logging onto the Verizon website and activating one of his old phones. We took the battery out of the touch before hand because two signals equal no good. We activated his old phone for about ten minutes and then reactivated his touch. Everything worked fine afterward. He had a new akey and I believe his dmu keys were reset. Hope this helps, but activating an old phone on the verizon website is a bit of a pain.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Scott_T:
Thanks for the info everyone...

Hope this helps someone else out.

Scott
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] vkolas:
um.... what if I did let the customization run? after I used the Sprint Radio Upgrade. Does the phone now think it's a Sprint phone? It won't even let me do the *228 anymore. Someone mentioned having success using a radiorefurbish.exe? does that make sense?

Thanks!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Scott_T:
I'm no pro, but re-flash, and make sure to soft reset before the customizations. Not a big deal.

Scott
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheBigBentley:
I have the same problem with internet. I too accidentally let the first flash run customization. I then re flashed the phone with a bunch of different roms and still cant get internet working, nor *228. I can still make phone calls just no internet. Can someone recommend with a link a good rom for verizons xv6900 that would solve this problem?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheChampJT:
You left some important details like,

The ROM & what exactly the error is.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheBigBentley:
Well the first rom was the oem sprint rom. I did this mostly for the gps function. The error is when i try to use data it says its dialing #777 then after about a min or 2 its says it could not connect. Ive tried entering my username and pass as someone suggested, but i actually never had one there before so I didn't see how that was going to help. Needless to say it didnt. I also have a problem when i try to use *228 to update my phone. It says it failed. Im mostly concerned with internet atm. By the way i really appreciate your fast reply!

I also ran the verizon carrier cab as was recommended in some posts but no dice there either.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheChampJT:
First, if you haven't done it yet, enter the username and password. After you flash a new ROM, the fields are blank, but the internet will work, but at some point, it will start to fail becuase of it being blank.

If that doesn't solve it, I suggest flashing a new Radio and ROM, I personally suggest using one from OMJ. I'm currently using his 3.09 Clean ROM, and it runs smooth. And after using the aGPS hack, something you can do after you resolve this, I get a faster GPS lock inside my home or office, than someone with an in-car model.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheBigBentley:
which radio do you suggest Ive tried 3.42.30 and 3.42.50 both give me same problame. Im flashing omj's 3.03.01 clean as I type this.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheChampJT:
I'm using 3.42.50 right now, and so far it works great.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheBigBentley:
ok so then I have both radio and rom installed and still no data. any further suggestion? Is there anyway of restoring verizon data setting to original defaults? I think the sprint rom must have changed something specific to the data settings. Ive tried everything to revert them back with no luck
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheChampJT:
What's the link to the ROM that you originally flashed and run the cusomizations.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Scott_T:
Not sure if I missed you saying it, but after a radio update, you HAVE to call verizon to reset the phone.

I have not heard a way around the call to Verizon....

Scott
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheBigBentley:
I did see that post before but my only problem is I have verizon. I cant find an official verizon rom since I dont think verizon released one.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheBigBentley:
Well Verizon did do something to my phone. Originally I had the problem with authentication so thats what led me to call them. They got that working for me and now I can dial out, but I cant reprogram my phone or update roaming with *228. It also looks like my phone is stuck in roaming because I always have that triangle by my signal bar.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] akatcl:
This is almost exactly where I am (roaming, still can't *228) but additionally, I don't have data working, but I think the latter issue just a matter of finding out what the password and server is supposed to be. Presently, they have a service call in for the roaming issue. I'm not totally sure what it has to do with the ROM as I had the same issue with another phone on another line a while ago.

Do you now get updates direct to your s21?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Quiexo:
I've been noticing that games running at 60FPS exhibit very noticeable frame skipping. It's especially noticeable when you have a background scene or object moving across the screen. I've attached two videos showcasing this issue; the first one is noticeable if you focus on the sign in the background, and the second video is noticeable by paying attention to the kitchen benches. The first game doesn't support above 60FPS, while the second does and when I switched to 120Hz the frame skipping is less noticeable but still there.

This issue is also present in other games like Doodle Jump but I chose only two games here because they show the issue much clearer. I tested these same games on my Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Exynos) and they ran completely smooth with no single frame skip.

My device model is ROG Phone 5 and the currently installed firmware version is WW_18.0840.2109.176. Both games ran with X Mode enabled. I'm thinking of trying out a custom kernel but I want to confirm first if this is a hardware issue while my warranty is still intact. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

No program update (yet) but we now have over 700 courses world wide mapped and still growing! Mapping a course takes less than 5 minutes and is so easy! I am working on a small update to add a few new items to the program, and to make searching the course list easier. Check it out!

Made some pretty serious changes to the golf gps program.

Wrote about it HERE

Download it HERE

10/7/08--

If you don't play golf, no need to read this.

I have a program that I have been on and off again working on for the last few years. It is a simple gps distance program written in C# on the .NET Framework (3.5 to be exact). I am keeping the code closed for now, but it is 100% free for the taking.

The other thing I have been working on is a course editor. My old Windows Mobile 2003 program had a seperate program that used Yahoo maps to make the gps files, but thanks to google maps, it is now online:

Golf Gps and the course maker can be accessed from http://www.gudensoft.com/golfgps. I would post it here, but it is much easier for me to update the site. I have only personally tested this on the Titan with the built in GPS. Others have had success with a bluetooth puck on other phones/PDA's. As long as you have WM5 or higher and the .NET Framework 3.5, it should work just fine. let me know of any suggestions, improvements, etc.

Thanks

Doh! Got excited too soon, no courses available in my area... giggty..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mjg7876:
Then make one! The course maker is a breeze! Takes less than 5 minutes to map a course.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cb95amc:
Just wanted to say thanks for this app......it's gone straight to the top of my list of must have software on my Touch Pro....

Course maker is very quick and easy to use....5-10 minutes for each course (I've already made two)....

Used the app for the first time today....really helped, particularly as I was playing a brand new course, and you never know how accurate the yardage markers are....

Will be donating shortly.....

Keep up the good work!

Thanks

Andy
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 1loudsvt:
This app looks very nice...i will hopefully be trying it today on a course i just made. One thin i would like to see added is the option to do driving range distances and ultimately overhead shots of the greens for each hole. that would make this app complete imo. keep up the great work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mjg7876:
Thanks!!! How would you like the driving range distances set up? Add like 5 points under driving range that you can add, something like that? Just not sure how that would look, but could certainly be added.

Keep the courses coming!! We are almost at 100!!!

Gudy
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ryncppr:
Seems to be a nice program...Haven't downloaded it yet but already made a map for my local golf course. Looks very promising and very easy to use....great job!!!

Already see it up on Freeware for Pocket PC!!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kwill:
looks like a cool app. just finished making a map and will get a chance to test it this weekend. thanks and will def provide feedback
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 1loudsvt:
have it stored in the same files as the course but have like you said 5 targets for farthest to longest or something like that. (for ranges that change the tee area every day this would be nice) I work at a golf course so i got to compare this to the yardage markers as well as a sky caddy(model 2.5) today. This is very accurate until you get close to the target...within 15yards its not that great but chances are you will not need it if you are this close;)...this does become a problem when you try to set the front, middle and back part of the green within the app though. other than that it was within a yard of the sky caddy
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mjg7876:
How about I add another section to the course file for a driving range (optional of course)? then, in the program under file, a selection to view driving range distances on another window? This would not only be easier to program, but might be more user friendly since there would only be one file per course.

Interesting about the distance issue up close. I have not experienced that at all, in fact I can usually get within 1 yard of a said target. What device are you using this on (and gps device if app.)? Also, what accuracy did the program report to you (ie good, very good, great etc).

Cool program

For some reason it doesn't seem to work with the kaiser (at&t tilt to be exact)

Program loads fine, but doesn't seem to be able to use the built in GPS

always says "No Fix" even when I have another GPS program running with a good fix.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] joshrys:
a good feature that other golf gps apps have is the ability to measure your distances, like how far you hit your drive. I also think saving an image of the hole/green would be nice.

I actually use a paid for program, but before i got it, i used freecaddie and it was very unstable. Always crashed and you had to restart the program. i will test out your program to compare to my paid for app and give you feedback.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mjg7876:
mbritten, not sure about that, could you tell me your settings under connection, external gps, the port numbers for in and out, and if you have manage gps by windows? Also, if you have a touch screen, press and hold on the accuracy and a menu will come up, select it and it will output some current gps data. does it have a device name? what is it's status?

Joshrys--I agree with the distance idea, and need to add that. I had it in my first version of this, but haven't put it back in yet. The image thing will be down the road, but is certainly possible. Is the paid one intelligolf? If so, it is cool, but too busy if you ask me. Any and all feedback is accepted!!

just got a chance to use it at my local course. the program is great!! my buddy was actually tripping that i had the course distances on my phone. no need to get an expense gps device for the course now:) thanks, you made my day. did notice that it drained the battery pretty fast though. maybe its just my device.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mjg7876:
I played 18 yesterday, and still had 65-70% battery(titan) when done using it nearly every hole. Not sure why yours would be more demanding. It will recover from sleep, did you allow it to sleep like normal?

Gudy
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kwill:
yeah, figured it had to just be me as no one else said anything about battery life. didnt really monitor if i let it go to sleep like normal. pretty sure i did as i only looked at it when needed. oh well, ive been thinking theres something wrong with my battery anyways:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dealwagon:
Works GREAT on my Tilt. Wow. Only request is that you have the ability to "name" the hazard.

good effort i'll track this case it goes tits up so far very smooth

good work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mjg7876:
Thanks, Freecaddie is pretty good. I wrote this before I even knew it existed (I might have actually started this project before they were around, my first build of this program is from 2004 for an old pda). I have heard some issues with freecaddie, plus it isn't the easiest thing to use, but certainly has more options than this does.

just a small update, since it is winter here, and my golfing days are numbered until spring, updates won't be as numerous, but I do have some fun new additions I am thinking about. One being for those that have a data plan, to map out the points onto a Google map. You would have an aerial view of the course, your location, the pin locations, and yardage to each location. I worry about being able to see it as it is hard enough to see the screen on the course as it is. Also, not sure on the legality of using Google maps like this either, but will look into it.

Any thoughts on this? Any other ideas you would like to see?

Thanks

Gudy
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] joshrys:
having a view of the hole you are on wold definately be a plus! another program i use has this feature, It is done when you map a course though. It basically takes a snapshot from the tee location to the hole location and stores it for you. I would think something similar would work best on the course because when I play I disable the phone to save battery (and to avoid unnecessary disruptions).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mjg7876:
Curious, what program? I like the idea you have, would certainly help the battery! I thought it would be cool to plot your location on the map as you go though. Might do both!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nkawtg:
May I make a small suggestion. If you were to change your file structure to accept the course files from freecaddie, we could take advantage of the larger database. Since both programs use Google to create files it seems the two formats must be close.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kwill:
you should move to another state:) totally kidding...but, the aerial view would be a plus, through google maps or however you can work that out:D who cares if u borrow their satellite images for such a great cause. lol. the app is great as is due to the fact it has save me another 250 just to get my yardages and having to have another electronic device out on the course. last reason, is my boy sh** his pants when he saw i was checking yardages from my phone. props to you and cant wait to see an update. would it be sometime this winter golf season for us texas that still play every weekend:D?

Great Ap

This is really cool! I created a course, downloaded the ap, and Voila. I'm 2000 yards from the first hole! I've used several GPS golf programs with my old Axim x50v but either I had to go walk the course to map it or wait for someone to create a file based on a scorecard. Can't wait to test the accuracy (not really a program issue), but it'll probably be a couple of months here in the great NW. At least I can map some of my favorite courses in the meantime. I'll definitely keep track of the thread for any new updates in the meantime.

Well deserved donation on the way!:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mjg7876:
2 problems with free caddie, 1st, they compile their data so I can't access it. 2nd, it would be illegal to use their data ;) We are over 350 courses now, and by spring, I bet we are close to 1,000. It is a snap to make a course and I am working on a new system to make the courses easier to find in the database.

Gudy
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mjg7876:
Ya, I am sick of the cold, a nice 70 degrees and green grass sounds pretty good right now! I have been researching google maps and it looks that as long as I keep it free (which I will, but still need the donations) I should be ok. I think I need to make it in 2 modes, one with data, and one without so if your phone can't handle the data, or the battery drain, you can still see everything. Yes I plan on working on this in the next month or so and will rely on people like to test it out since, well, I can't!

Hazards ID

Gudy,

Just a thought. If you are going to allow input of text for hazard id, then it would be good to have the ability to edit the courses we have saved. I know that the courses I have input have such things as dogleg turns marked by the hazard flag.

Got a tee time for Wednesday, hope to try out the app!:D
