XV6800 Searches Endlessly for Tower with anything but the stock radio ROM
SOLVED! SEE MY POST NEAR END OF THREAD!
Hi All,
I have seen other reports of this problem, but never any solutions.
I have an XV6800 that I purchased as a backup phone to my touch pro. When I got the touch pro it felt so flimsy that I really did not think it would last. So I am now confident in it and decided to get out the 6800 and put it on eBay. So I decided to play with it a bit before putting it up for sale.
If I flash any other radio than what is in the Verizon stock ROMS, upon reboot, the phone will perform an endless search for the Verizon towers. I can force it to connect by dialing *22801 which gets me a U.S. Cellular error message. As soon as I hang up I get a Verizon lock and full EVDO signal. From that point forward, the phone works great! It gets GPS locks in under 10 seconds!! If I could figure out this problem I would be 50/50 on considering moving to the 6800 over the TP. Pandora and streaming audio work flawlessly on the 6800 and it feels like a real phone. There is still no VGA Pandora app that actually works properly... And Audio on the TP has a lot of clicks and pops....
So as I have said, I have seen others report about this issue, but never seen a solution or the OP ever come back saying it was resolved. So I bring up the issue again to see if anyone has any unposted insight into this problem.
