Verizon Apps on Custom ROMS

[jetfanandy]

Hi All,

I have tried MightyRom and JuicyRom and noticed that I can't run Visual Voicemail and VZ Navigator on them. I also can't get to the Verizon homepage that was on the stock rom. Does anyone know what the issue is? I would love to use these programs.

I think the issue has something to do with a firewall, or having to access some kind of special part of the Verizon data connection. I do know that these programs did not work with Wifi when I had a stock rom. They only worked with data.

Any help that can be provided is appreciated. Thanks.

VZ Navigator only works on stock because it is signed. VZ Visual Voicemail should work just fine. Search around here on PPCGeeks and you will find it. Just find out the web address for the VZ homepage and save it to Opera/IE.

You could try this VZNavigator .cab.

I don't use VZ Nav., so I am not sure if this will work for you or not. Just uninstall, if it doesn't function for you.


I also attached the latest Visual Voice Mail from Verizon.

that doesn't work, there was a thread here a few weeks ago about that with no solution.

I was actually just having a chat with OldMan, over at SSK, trying to see if I figure some things out with this.


If you build a rom with SSK Kitchen and use the generic erv file or use his VZW based roms, these apps. should function fine and that Homepage will be default again.

Thanks all for your reply. I was able to get Visual Voicemail working. If anyone could get VZ Navigator up an running on a custom rom, I would be truly grateful!
