Bell HTC Touch Help

Hi,

So I need some help. I have unlocked my phone and am running SPL-2.31.CoKe. and have installed a number of ROMs. I wanted to try and get the GPS working but only found one post so far of someone saying that they had it working on the Bell network. All of the ROM's I have found have a bunch of extra software I don't want loaded. Is there a windows mobile 6.1 that is clean? and designed off of the Bell OEM ROM? I know I am asking a lot. Has one got GPS working on the Bell Touch? Anyways, if anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great.

Thanks

Re: Bell HTC Touch Help

I also have a Bell Touch that is unlocked and running SPL 2.31 with Jakdillard's clean and basic 6.1 rom as posted in this thread. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=24979 It is clean and efficient but not designed off the Bell rom. I am not missing anything from the Bell rom that I don't have on JD's rom. I did everything exactlty as laid out in the thread and I have both RevA and GPS working. The rom is faster all around then the Bell rom. The GPS locks within 1-3 minutes inside or outside. One odd thing is that all in coming and out going calls now use 1X exclusivly. Before it would switch from 1X to EVDO depending on my area. But the phone quality has not changed for the better or worse.
I love JD's rom and would never go back to Bells bloated and slow loading rom.

D.

Re: Bell HTC Touch Help

the link to download the ROM in the thread you mentioned is dead. Do you have another link or can you upload your rom file to the FTP?

Re: Bell HTC Touch Help

ive had the roms and radios working since the day gps was released. Run the new sprint leaked rom (which will update your radio) and then flash to any other custom rom ud like,

Re: Bell HTC Touch Help

I just used the PPC Kitchen to cook a ROM for my friend with a Bell Vogue. You can pick the programs you want and it is REALLY easy. Just remember that it may take 2 or 3 flashes to get the right recipe.

Same with me, I'm on Bell and I just used the tools at ppckitchen.org to create my own Rom, it was pretty easy...but I took several hours and many flashes before I found the right mix. Try the latest 3.02 kitchen, if that doesn't work...used the GPS kitchen (Based on no2chem 19209)...which is a bit older but I use it cause the 3.02 has bugs with the programs I run.

After you've made your Rom, go outside and run GPS Viewer, after it locks (few minutes) then load up your GPS Software.

Re: Bell HTC Touch Help

I also recommend the PPCkitchen to keep things the way you want them. The clean ROMs are also good.

As for the Bell Music store... check the last post here.
