Did you run the provisioning cab for Verizon after flashing to NFS? There is a good chance that you will not have internet if you don't do this.

this is probably because the video for this phone is far from perfect. Videos with lower FPS and resolutions work better (don't skip as much). Also, I have had the best results using either CorePlayer or TCPMP. Most other players get far worse results. As far as the audio sync, that will happen from time to time. It happens more often on certain video formats afaik. I would just use the regular headphones if I were you.

I've never been able to reverse tether in W7. XP has no issues and normally works upon connection (no need for BlueSolei)

You should be able to, depending on which software you are using for RDC.

You may be better off just getting a long USB cable (lots of extenders) rather than using BT.

Good luck!

I feel really stupid asking this...

But can I unlock my Vogue and flash a custom ROM without having to mess with Verizon's system (i.e. having to call them to activate the phone)? (#1)

I'm 90% sure this is a yes, but I'd like verification. If I were to upgrade my radio (which is mostly unnecessary...?), I would need to re-activate my phone, correct? (#2)

Also, please lead me in the correct direction. I want a fast (moderately stable) ROM to upgrade from my stock 6.1. M2D is nice to have, but without data, I have no use for most of it, therefore it is unnecessary (I can always disable it). 6.1 or 6.5, it doesn't matter. Personally I like the looks of 6.1 better, but if there are 6.5 ROMs which are faster, I'll take it. Any suggestions? (#3)

Thank you.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
Flashing either rom or radio does not require you to reactivate the device. Verizon uses the ESN of the device combined with your account number for verification, none of which are modified during a flash of either thing. Having said that, you will need to use provisioning cabs for Verizon if you flash anything that is not made for Verizon (to get internet and MMS settings).

As to rom selection, it is a matter of personal choice. My rom, for instance is prepped to work with metroPCS but since I am not cooking it with M2D, I give the user the option to either have it or not. LMiller's roms are good and I hear that NuAngel's is good (although an older build), and of course you cannot go wrong with NFS.

Hope this helps.

Have you tried to see if the GPS works with other GPS utilities like Visual GPSe? Since you mentioned the BT, erase the profile that you currently have (pairing between device and GPS) and make a new one. Lastly, remember to turn location on.

Thanks for that!

GSM or CDMA...

I have an extremely noobish question:

how do I know if my htc touch is GSM or CDMA or whatever...

and can if it is not GSM can I use it with gsm sim, by changing the rom or radio...?

when I turn it on it tells me that my operator isn't supported but with the gsm sim, I was able able to make a phonecall after messing up with some settings. but I couldn't do it again...:confused:

thank you for tolerating my stupid question :o
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
If your phone has a SIM card, it is GSM (and hence an Elf or Elfin and you should not do anything from this forum). Also, if you look in the back of the phone (under the battery) look for the model number of the device VOGU100 is CDMA (aka Vogue), ELF100 is an Elf (aka GSM)

These are hardware differences and flashing a radio will not allow you to use the other.

Hope this helps.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] rudy-salameh:

ok thanks, this really helps... mine is GSM, so I'll ask the rest of my questions in the gsm forum... :)

Unlocking Problem...Power Button Not Working

I followed the guide to unlock the phone. Everything seemed to go fine and bootloader shows SPL-2.31 Coke. The ploblem is when the screen shuts off on it's own or I turn the screen off with the power button the screen won't come back on by hitting the power button. I have to soft reset the phone to get the screen back on but the same thing happens again when I turn off the screen. I also did a hard reset but that didn't solve the issue. The power button must work or I wouldn't be able to turn off the screen with it or get into bootloader and I never had any issues prior to unlocking the phone so I must have screwed something up. Any ideas? Thanks!

Disregard...flashed stock rom and then back again and all is well.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
No cab can brick your device. The fastest and surest way to brick a device would be to flash a radio for another device into your Vogue. I am not sure about what the HTC Performance cab actually is. Do you have a link for it? Where did you find it?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] devildog0729:
Hey thunder if you google you will find it, nuangel included it in his latest rom version. Just wanted to see if anyone had used on the touch/vogue and if so what was their experience.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
I am not using my Vogue on WM, so while I could google and download the cab, I can not use it right now.

Edit: I just remembered what it is. It is an overclocking utility for certain types of processors. I remember trying it in my Blue Angel some years ago, but didn't do anything.

To answer your question, as with any overclocking utility, the risk involved is not as much as bricking your device but rather frying the CPU.

The cab seems to work best for the Apache, but many people say that this only gives a placebo effect with no true effect on measurable performance. It was designed much prior to the release of the Vogue, so I suspect that it may be for a different processor as well.

I would ask NuAngel directly as it may just be that he is testing different cabs to if what works/what doesn't.

Have you tried *228?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
Doing a hard reset cannot wipe the PRL as it is stored in your Radio and not your rom. If you are referring to the fact that you had a flashable PRL in your Vogue's internal storage, then maybe yes... you may have deleted it. But the only way to change the PRL would be via PST (or CDMA Workshop). Hard resetting a Vogue cannot erase this file from the radio.

Can I move ~32 MB from Storage to RAM ?

Finally found a ROM that makes me happy and hopeful. Thanks NuAngel for your Bare ROM 0.1 - I luv the fact it provides lots of extra internal memory not found with other ROMs and looks & behaves so good! Trouble is, the extra space is in the storage area, instead of being available for running programs. Back before WinMo v5, it was easy to adjust the partition dividing point. Anybody know how allocate more internal NAND to RAM?

Many thanks for this great thread, forum, and any help toward extra RAM.

Any Insight?

Hi Everyone Hopefully Some Senior Members Here Can Help With This Issue....

I have 2 htc vogue's running identical firmware's and radio one i've been playing with the other is untouched.. So heres the problem

My proper device id should be VOGU1000 anytime i try to install an offical ruu or a hard spl it changes my device id to VOGU2000 which is fine for the hardspl but not the offical ruu.. I can hexedit the official spl's to contain the proper device id of VOGU1000 but next time i run the proper ruu it will change it back and update would fail.....Now in saying all that if i run the same ruu or jumpspl on my other *untouched vogue all is well and the device id stays the same? can anyone shed some insight? is there a backup deviceid somewhere thats getting pulled into play or is there some security bit somewhere that is allowing the device id to be changed whereas the other phone will not allow it unless you actually flash a new spl.... some history on the problem phone is that it's been completely erased and all new software wrote to it ALL except oemspl.... everything else including NVFM RFNV APPSBL so on so forth has been cleared and installed fresh and phone works great other than above issue Thanks In Advance I Have My Brain Wracked Out Trying To Figure This One Out.... Also before anyone ask I have tried all this with proper cid and radio security back to FF and also supercid same results :mad:
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
So, since you are talking about NV and all that, I take it that you have gone in with CDMA workshop or something similar and played with some settings, correct? Other than maybe a mtty command, I don't believe that you can change this so easily since it is located away from both radio and OS, so you really have to have done something that you were not supposed to :D. Let me dig around a bit and see if I can come up with something...

Problem Solved upgrade to 6.5 NFSFAN

So, I alluded to this earlier, but just want to describe a problem that I had, and how I solved it.

I am on Verizon, and was trying to upgrade my phone to NFSFAN's WinMo 6.5. So I unlocked the phone with the Coke unlocker, and tried to install NFSFAN's ROM, but when booting up, the phone stopped at the "Verizon Wireless" logo. What I did to solve this was re-install the verizon stock rom found here (Verizon stock ROM)

I installed this rom, let it run customizations, reboot, and then ran the NFSFAN installer. This time, it booted up into WinMo 6.5.

I don't know why this worked, but I wanted to share it with everyone because it gave me a headache.

This fixed the problem on two different Vogues, and on two different Vista machines, one x64 and one x32.

Hope this helps someone.

Bootloader

Hi There,

To Flash From Bootloader Hold Down The Power And Camera Buttons And Put Your Stylus In The Reset Hole, When You See The Tri-Color (Bootloader Screen) You Can Release The Camera And Power Button, Then Just Run The Ruu As Normal.... Alternatively You Can Copy Whatever Image It Is Your Trying To Flash To The Root Of A Fat32 Formatted Sd Card And Name It VOGUIMG.nbh and Once The Bootloader Starts You Will Be Presented With Instructions To Flash...(Pending You Have A Hardspl, Ie. 231.Coke)
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] n64_ali:
Thanks for the info. I ended up doing a hard reset (Talk/End call buttons pushed + stylus in reset hole) which ended up doing the trick. The phone asked me if I wanted to perform hard reset, I did, and ended up booting to NFSFAN's Win Mo 6.5 rom. At the Start-up screen, I was able to Flash back to stock Bell rom and all is well again. I guess it's on to trying another, more stable rom. Thanks for the help.

STILL No GPS

ROM Version 1.15.VZW (MFSFAN Verizon WM6.1)

Radio version 3.42.50

PRI version 1.37_002

Not sure what other info you need... I have been fighting this batter FOREVER...

I Open GPS Viewer... It acquires like 5 or 6 sats... it stacks them on the WORLD map right on the N at the top of the map and never gives me a Longitude or Latitude. It NEVER locks anything in Google Maps....

Does anyone know of any way to trouble shoot from here?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
The fact that you are able to see 5 or 6 satellites tells me that the gps is working. It normally takes mine like 10-15 minutes to give me a lock, and I am using the same radio as you are.

GPS verizon

Hi this is my first post on xda and hopefully I am posting in the right area. I have been searching all over trying to figure out how to get gps on my phone. I am a little confused because there seems to be multiple posts and suggestions on how to do it, but I was wondering which one is correct/has the best success rate.

I first read through the guide stickied in this forum(how to flash your cdma vogue) that says to use unlocker 2.31 and flash the altel rom then to flash the radio of your choice then to flash the custom rom of your choice. It says that gps should work after setting up your phone. It seems that some people have not been able to make this work.

Second I found this post:

** wouldn't let me link but the post that link was for the complete verizon gps fix**

this one requires to use unlocker .4 flash a sprint rom and then use unlocker 2.31. I am guessing that the reason to use .4 and install the sprint rom is to put on a pre gps enabled radio. But in the post about cokeunlocker it says not to flash to a pre gps radio after you have a gps radio on the phone or you risk bricking the device.

Third I have seen this post linked to a few times:

**wouldnt let me link but the ppc link that talks about enable gps for the htc touch pro**

this apparently will enable gps on the stock rom, but it is for the touch pro. Reading through the post it doesn't actually say if it will work on the vogue and the few people that talked about the vogue in the forum never commented on what their results were.

I have a feeling that most of the issues people had using these guides stemmed from verizon, but I cannot be sure. my phone:

cdma vogue on verizon

stock windows mobile 6.1 with the 3.37.78

I really just want to get gps enabled I don't care about running a custom rom because I mainly use android, but if I want to use gps in android I need it running in windows mobile. Sorry for this long post and thank you to anyone that read it/has some advice.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
Well, most of what you are saying is true. However, here is the thing... the GPS for the Vogue simply takes a very long time for it to get a lock. There have been a few fixes out there but most of them seem to give rather random results. I do not have a Verizon phone (I have a Sprint branded one), I can use my gps with no issues at all (other than taking almost 15 minutes to get a lock sometimes). The thing about the .4 unlocker, if you read cokeman's original guide, you will also see that he recommends to use 2.31 for everything. And yes, you shouldn't go below radio 3.xx.xxx to the risk of damaging your device (I don't think it will brick it, but it can certainly damage it according to cokeman). If I were you, I would probably put some lite rom instead of the Verizon's stock. Your device should feel faster overall and you will probably have more ram and storage available too! I hope this helps.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] drock3260:
ya I was thinking about just doing that to see if it would work, and if it didn't have gps I would still just have a better windows rom installed on the device. I just was curious about what other people thought. still not sure exactly what I am going to do but I appreciate the reply and advice.

edit: I havn't confirmed this yet but looking at *How to restore Verizon Vogue Standalone GPS* over at ppc I think I know why you have to flash to the old radio. After you flash verizons update to 6.1 it changes your pri to 2.03. I don't know exactly what this means but I believe this has something to do with the lock out of the gps. The only way to get the pri back to 1.37 is to flash a pre-gps radio and windows 6 rom and let it boot up fully. And to have a pre gps radio and pre gps rom boot up without cycling it has to be on the .4 bootloader. I still am not sure if this is safe, but at least I think I know why they do this. Also I am fairly sure this is a verizon only thing
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] scotttr:
drock3260: I'm on Verizon, I've tried all of the methods you mentioned.

Option #3 gave me a 'smearing' effect on titanium and the start menu, I did not check to see if gps worked after it, the 'smearing' was so bad I could barely make out the menus, I did a hard reset to fix it.

Option #2 got me working GPS. I've done the radio downgrade on 2 phones with no problems.

novafreak69: Try flipping back and forth between the screens on GPS Viewer or toggle the screen on and off. At times mine has had the 5 or more satellites and not shown a 'lock' until I did this. Also, other times, GPS Viewer has not shown a lock but Mobile XT gives your location as soon as it is opened.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] drock3260:
scotttr: ya I was sorta getting the idea that I needed to do the flash to the old radio from reading more. Thank you for confirming

Does anyone recommend a rom to flash? I don't really need anything special. Just something light.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
There are plenty of roms out there. One of everyone's favorite is NFSFAN's latest. There are other newer roms out there, but his is fast and light enough.

Sweet. Thanks egzthunder1 and scotttr for the help. I flashed NFSFAN's 6.5 rom after getting my pri to 1.37 and putting on a newer radio. Im still messing with gps, but at least I think I have a chance to make it work now

edit: Finally got a gps lock, its locking faster now, but for some reason it is saying im roughly 100 miles away from where I really am. Ive closed it and reopend it and it still thinks im in the same spot
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
100 miles!?!? wow, and here I was thinking that 40 feet was bad :D

Try to soft reset the device and see if that works.

lol ya, when it popped up I was like oh its saying im on the outskirts of town based on the names of streets (Santa cruz by the water), but as I zoomed out I realized I wasn't even close to the water. I mean I was in California but it was closer to Tahoe than Santa Cruz. So I did try a soft reset, but I have not been able to get a lock since. Its still finding sats, but not pulling a lock. Its kinda weird because that initial lock took a while, but then it would lock within a couple of minutes every time after. But now I just keep finding sats and dropping them. I mean Ive got up to 16 without locking. kinda weird

edit: awesome getting locks and it is locking to the right location. I can't really say why but it is working now, and much faster too. I was even able to make google navigator sorta work

Newbie stuck at HTC mobility screen

Newbie stuck at HTC Mobility screen

Long time lurker, first time poster.

I just flashed my Vogue (Sprint) using the Sticky "[GUIDE]How to Flash your Vogue..." and now I can't get past the HTC Mobility screen. I searched the forums here for some help and everything suggested centers around being able to actually get the computer to recognize the Vogue again. I tried the bootloader mode and I get the RGB screen with:

VOGU100 MFG

SPL-2.31.CoKe

CPLD-3

I've tried reflashing, but again, my computer makes the "ding-dong" like the hardware is there, but it doesn't actually connect and the utility doesn't recognize is.

I just tried to flash from SD card using the "VOGUIMG.nbh" trick. It completed successfully, but just sticks at that screen. I then soft reset the device and it goes right back into the HTC Mobility screen and stops.

Any ideas? I'm stuck.
