Please note these roms are GPS/REV A based, you must have unlocked w/ ImCokeMan's v2.31 (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20370) and have upgraded your radio to 3.37. DO NOT flash these roms if you have not done so!!!***[/SIZE][/B]

Any idea how to get a quicker gps lock with this rom??? Sometimes my gps locks right away, and other times it takes a long time to lock.

note is first time takes along time to get a lock b/c it has to be primed, and also please know that this is a beta/leak. Did u take battery out and hard reset after u flashed to this rom? If not make sure u do.

If your GPS works, but your gettting mixed results for the GPS Lock, then I came across a few fixes/tweaks, they work for me. These may or may not work for you; so browse the forum links and read for yourself the results others are having then try it out.
1. Enable aGPS Mode:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=18345&highlight=agps+registry
2. Some other registry tweak, seems to have worked, but can't really tell the actual effect of it.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=25045&highlight=gpstest2.1
3. Use a today-plugin called 'GPSToday' currently in v. 0.95. Personally I love this program and it's a great 'primer' and locks on quite well. I'm getting great results with these.
http://www.geoterrestrial.com/
Again, I can't really tell you the effect of each individual tweak/fix, I've done/added all 3 to my device and im getting a lot better results.

Ya I had the same problem trying to download at first, but if you just leave the download page up the entire time (aka hit download then don't touch anything until it's finished) it should work. As soon as I brought another window to the front of my screen it stopped both times, the third time I left the original page at the front and it worked. Weird that it's working this way...
Is anyone else having trouble getting their GPS to work? I did a hard reset after installing this rom then later took the phone outside for awhile and tried to connect to gps using persistant method and it just keeps showing 0 sat the whole time. Am I missing something here?

I believe the GPS can take long the first time it actually catches a a signal and works..... i heard it can take up to 20-25min. Make sure you are outside and have good signal stegnth!

This ROM is WM6.1, however, it's a Sprint ROM. I read that it will work on other Touch phone as long as you don't let the customization run. Check out the link I posted to the ppcgeek guys. They've been testing it quite a bit.
The programs that will not work so far are these: Touchpal and TCPMP.
I don't know any technical info about this ROM. I only posted so the Wckediden folks can test it as well if desired.

I have a question... I was wondering what are the steps to flash this rom and have rev a gps working... I already asked the question but i had no answers...
Is the right way to do things to unlock your phone with imacokeman unlockers, then flash alltell rom(Follow all the prompt asked) and then when alltel customisation wants to run, we hit soft reset and then we proceep on flashing this rom? Basicly follow the steps that are in mustan rom?
Or we just right away flash with this rom and everything should be working? I read the tutorial on flashing roms but i am still confused with this...
Thanks in advance for the help!

after testing the two roms I have found that I like the features of mustan-tech's v3 rom for the touch. It has a lot more features and is very pretty :). If you need any more info on it ask in the mustan-tech rom's thread. :)
thermus
05-15-2008, 12:10 PM
I have found that when I use this rom it opens the keypad after everything I do. Close out a game or program and bam, there is the keypad again. :( :( Not very fun or practical. Seems kinda slow to the touch too but maybe its just me.
EDIT*** Also, the quick menu (start menu) works when it wants to. meaning I can push the start menu and it wil be normal, push again to close, push again to open and then there is the quick menu. THAT ALSO FRUSTRATING.......
EDIT***** AND THE TOUCH KEYPAD DON'T WORK GAAAAAAARRHRHRHRHHRHR THIS ROM GETS .5 STARS!!!!!!!!!

probably cause you have a modified dialer so the phone codes are so you can do things like ##786# and so forth. As for the rom, i would switch to mustan-techs V3 rom its a much better rom works crazy good havent had any issues with V3 yet

Actually if you'd give it a chance, you will find the OMJ Rom has a lot of really cool things in it that some of the other cooked ROMs don't have. It's the best I've tried so far and even though there are a few little issues, there is enough informaiton on the ppcgeeks website to take care of them.

Ok well this is clearly stated as a touch rom, loads as a touch rom but goes to sprint mogul homepage. These little things are frustrating to me and I have my own opinion right??? I don't like it. There are a lot of GOOD things about this rom but it's the not so good things that ruin it for me. If you gcould give me some tips to fix these instead of sending me to another site then it owuld be appreciated. Thanks for your input on this rom.

so far this is the only ROM that has multiple GPS Navigation, multimedia, utilities, phone codes. I have spend a lot less time getting this the way i like with all the programs i like most are alreadyl there.
the GPS on this ROM is amazing. i get 5-8 sats within seconds of me going outside my house. i can get 3 or 4 in my house.
I can give detailed information on how to fix all problems stated in the last post but i would have to find it again myself. and i apoligize for sending a member to another website but since OMJ's Rom has been tested much more on that website than this one, i felt inclined to point them there. from now on, if i can't answer directly i won't post.

it's not a bad thing that your sending a member to another site, cause its going to happen. It's just obvious you have fixed it on your phone or have read about so why not post it. Let me know what you come up with when you get home and I will do some searching my self. Could you explain what the phone codes are????

The phone codes are for accessing the progam areas of your phone. The Rev A verifcation is one of the things you can find there.
There a many posts here that give detailed information on how to use the codes. The thing I like about these is that I don't have to remember codes to access my phone for changing things. OMJ has included them for me.

Ok guys...all your help will be very much appreciated ! This is my first time flashing a ROM and I want to make sure I dont screw things up....
I downloaded the verizon version to my laptop and I can connect to my vx6900 with active sync...
I dont know where to get these files:
Please note these roms are GPS/REV A based, you must have unlocked w/ ImCokeMan's v2.31 and have upgraded your radio to 3.37. DO NOT flash these roms if you have not done so!!!***[/size][/b]
***** ImCokeMan's v2.31*****
***** radio to 3.37*****
How do I update to radio 3.37?
So from the instructions what I have understood is that once I know where to get these above files...I basically unlock the phone by running the ImCoke application on my laptop while the phone is activesynced...then I update the radio to 3.37....then I run the ROM file exe and follow the onscreen directions. Once the ROM is installed I do a hard reset and I should be done??
Please let me know.
I wish there was a very detailed instruction list with the above files included in the steps for us first timers :) ....but regardless this site is awesome!

Basically this is my first ROM update:
I have the verizon VX6900 and have successfully installed some mods provided by DASH. I am a bit familiar with active sync as well.
I want to get the GPS working and also the Rev A speeds on my phone in the simplest manner and I think the OMJ Verizon ROM update is the way to go??
From what I understand all I need to do is 1) download the OMJ verizon EXE file to my laptop 2) Run the unlocker program listed in the beginning of this thread (which I still cant find) 3) Somehow update the radio on my touch to 3.37 (which I still dont know how to do)
4) Once the above 3 are complete I run the OMJ Verizon EXE on my laptop while active sync is running and connected to my Touch
5) From there I think I just follow the onscreen instructions??? Please let me know where I could possibly screw up...I dont want to be phoneless :)

yes and you need to flash tpo the alltel rom first before flashing to the custom to get the radio and the rest is correct

Hello Dash,
Is this the link to the Alltel update you are referring to?
http://216.139.227.226/alltel/RUU_Vo...SpecialNBH.exe[/quote] ??
If it is...do I start off by just running that EXE on my laptop while actively synced then after that is done, running the unlocker as mentioned above at which point I would have the radio setup and the unlock done and ready to go with the OMJ EXE?

05-23-2008, 12:45 AM
yessir that is the rom that you will want and also be sure that you flash tto that first by just going through the steps and all after you unlock your phone using the unlocker which you can find in my signature... than flash the OMJ rom and you iwll be golden....... also please look at my signature for further step by step for flashing roms and all very ewasy and cant be broken down any more than that lol...... good luck and let us know how it goes.

your not supposed to let the customizations run on the rom so hard reset and than do a soft reset when it says device will customize in .......3.....2.....1...... and than you should be fine.

Hi Guys...I found an interesting post that seemed related to the same problem I am having on the ppcgeeks website:
Since you are on VZW, go to your dial pad and press ##778 and hit talk, it will ask for a code so hit ZERO 6 times and hit ok, from there go to Security and in here you will see you UID and Pass (Pass with be encrypted I think).
But my point is you have to authenticate in order to connect via data through the carrier.
WHen I did this and went into the EPST: Security section its showing my cell number @ alltell
I dont knwo if thats what its supposed to be?

Ok just to update...the epst settings are correct...even when I made changes...if you run verizons over the air programming *228 all the settings go back to original. I still cant get on the internet however
I tried reinstalling the ROM and still nothing...i was unable to go back to stock because it would nto let met...i was able to run the unlocker again and reinstall the OMJ ROM, but again same result no internet.
Help please...im stuck here

05-23-2008, 07:03 AM
Ok what I belive may have caused the problem is that when I did the Alltel rom install...i let it customize the settings (didnt do the soft reset before the 321 customization)...then after that I did the OMJ install...could this be it?
If it is...what is the fix? PLEASE HELP

Ok to recap:
I have a Verizon VX6900 and last night I tried to update to the OMJ GPS + Rev A update. I first unlocked the phone using the Vogue_unlocker_MFG_2.31 and verified that 2.31 was displayed. Then I updated the ROM to the RUU_Vogue_4350_ALLTEL_WWE_3.04.671.2_Radio_4350H_3 .37.10_Alltel_NV2.00_PRL30008_0331_Ship_withSpecia lNBH
version (i think this is where i messed everything up because I let the Alltell customization settings go through instead of soft resetting before the 321)
After this ran the OMJ.WM6.1.GPS.Verizonv2 installation and was able to get WMP 6.1 running but was not able to make any calls or get on the internet. Calling #8899 and authenticating got the phone calls working but still no internet.
I have since tried reinstalling the ROM which goes through but gets me to the same point (however even if i do a hard reset or reinstall the Alltell or OMJ ROM I never loose authentication with Verizon (dont know if thats weird or not).
What I think the problem may be is that the Alltell settings are not leaving my phone...for example if I dial ##778 and go into the security settings everything says Alltell..and if i edit these settings and then do a *228 on my phone to reprogram...all the Alltell settings come back. So I think the only way to fix this would be to revert back. to a 100% Verizon ROM and let it do the customization and then go through the whole process again...problem is I cant find a verizon ROM that will work.
I tried installing this rom (
[NEW] Verizon Stock Rom Version 2.0.9 )) but after the install the phone just hangs at the PPCGEEKS page...
I dont know what to do?
I found this thread which talks about sprint phones and even describes a similar situataion where Alltell was allowed to customize and how to go into the phone and change settings, but the instructions are for sprint phones. And the instructions to revert back to factory ROM I tried and thats when I get the PPCGEEK page hanging.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=24979
So I am lost and need help.

Ok im only going to continue on one thread. First off I tried to read all the instructions and steps but there really isnt a very clear set of instructions which is understandable considering all the different phones out there and carriers.
As of right now my phone does not go past the bootloader and this is because I ran the Alltel install by mistake before unlocking to 2.31....the ROM flash froze at 35% and since then....im stuck at the bootloader....and I cant run any of the other RUUs bc i get a connection error to the phone and it doesnt go past 0 %....It does however detect the USB because at the bottom of the bootloader it changes from serial to usb upon connection....
So i called verizon, but there isnt much they can do when i tell them all i see is a red, green, blue, white screen

Nope none of the bootloaders worked and the phone would not get out of the RED/BLUE/GREEN/WHITE screen. Swapped the phone out...so no more problems.
I got the new phone and ran everything correctly...had to reauthenicate and also enter the dialing info for the internet connection.
Right now I have to phone outside trying to get a GPS fix.
One thing tho...I got a download speed of 78 kb/sec? I thought i was supposed to get around 1500...I was getting 600 before. Any ideas?

Yes, once the flash was complete I let the os boot up and set the clock. Then before it optimized the os I hit the soft reset and then pulled the battery. Then put the battery back in and did the hard reset. I think this error has something to do with windows but am not sure. Either way I am going to flash again and see if thats the issue. Maybe I'll try a different rom release. I do have to say though, the gps works great with this release. Google maps is awesome with the satellite view.:brows:

I did this same edit and it worked just fine before my rom update. But now I just cant get it to work. I did a search for the weather fix but am not coming up with a solution for this problem. Any suggestions?
Oh FYI I did install the HTC Home - Schen 2.1 with N2A Weatherpatch (UPX Compressed).cab but it made no difference.
Ok, its all fixed now. I was missing a step:)

The HHC that comes with this rom wasnt cooperating with the weather mod. So what I did was reinstall with the HHCv08b.cab then install HTC Home - Schen 2.1 with N2A Weatherpatch (UPX Compressed) then reboot. At that point I can go in and add the custom city. Before I installed the new HHCv08b adding a custom city wouldnt work. But, the biggest thing to remember (which I didnt) is to disable the HTC Home plugin from the today screen till your done installing and adding the custom city.

I'll tell you what, after spending the entire night yesterday and most of today toying with the activesync and weather issue I was just about to give up totally. I tried 4 different rom's and they all seemed to be pretty buggy. One thing that bothered me with this particular rom was that the dialer kept popping up EVERYTIME I DID SOMETHING! Also there were more apps embedded in the rom image that I really didnt need or like. I also had issues with the Mustan-Mega rom. I had really buggy keyboards so that was out really fast lol.
Anyway I finally landed on this rom (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=26776) and have been playing with it all night. I must say it doesnt have as many bugs as the others and being almost stock I could mod it the way I liked it.
So if anyone is having issues with any of their installed roms I suggest to try this one (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=26776) out its been the best so far for me. The GPS works quite well along with many other apps. Its got all the default apps that I needed except a few things that I've added. I was also able to restore my PIM with SKTools so I am good to go now.
If anyone needs any help with any of this please feel free to pm me. I've flashed about 6 times in the past day so I've learned alot:)

Sorry to drag this offtopic on but there isnt any info on the new version yet. I just saw someone post that V3 was out and I looked on their ftp and saw it. So thats why I posted it.
So, maybe I should wait till there is more info about the new version to post a new thread.

Ok cool I'll leave it to you then:)
It seems someone is already having an issue with V3 over there so who knows lol..
OMJ's Custom rom thread. (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=299350#post299350)
Edit: I installed the V3 Rom last night and right away I noticed it didnt have the few bugs that I initially didnt like. The keyboards ran very smooth. He's even included the new diamond keyboard:) I also noticed that he included skyfire but, a registered email and password are required.
