I reset the info in ##DATA# and changed my vision password to initiate IOTA but it hasn't come through yet. It did pick up a signal within a few seconds but when I try to connect to vision, I now get error 67.
I had skipped the sprint customizations so I didn't have IOTA and that's why it wasn't working. I just took it from the zip someone posted with all of the sprint addons.
Once I installed IOTA, it tried to reprovision but I got error 1012.
Changed my vision password online again to see if it will work when initiated from their end.
Didn't work but once I restored the info in ##DATA# and manually ran IOTA, it worked fine. I can get online and I don't have any issues picking up an EVDO signal after soft reset.
Filing under "Solved" for me at least.
3) No longer can roam on Verizon towers
I took it out in DC today and while I had a great EVDO signal out on the street, as soon as I got into the metro, I went to 1x on Verizon's tower and couldn't get any data. I used to be able to do data roaming on VZW on the metro.
4) Sometimes have to soft reset to get GPS fix
I had GPS working great yesterday. Went to bed. Today when I was out and about I couldn't find any satellites with Gmaps or Live. Soft reset and it worked fine.
5) Initial attempt to use GPS can make phone unresponsive for 3-5 minutes or lock up requiring a soft reset.
Sometimes the first time I use GPS it will freeze up the phone
Will edit with step-by-step of what I try as I go along.
I will have to Second these bugs I pretty much experienced the same behavior although my initial install was a success.

1. No roam on Verizon network when on the Metro Train (Always say the device is not recognized)
2. May freeze up when aquiring GPS position (Live Search) actually only got the position once, it says to get a clear view etc... No Problem with Sprint Telenav. It still takes atleast 3-5min though.
3. Volume appears to be much lower.

On the plus side it seems as though the EVDO is a bit quicker 599.2kbps in my office on the 11th floor in Rosslyn according to blue-mobile.com. Will check again at home in DC.
Update: GPS is working flawless today Live Search picked up my location in half the time as before and even noticed when I moved from the window to deeper into the office...I'm going outside for lunch to wander around...YEA!
