Re: Verizon VX6900 - Altell ROM

ill try that xml file, i think thats the same one i posted on this thread earlier. i cut out everthing except philly too. and didnt work. and tried resettting it to read only as some threads said. still didnt work. soft reset after each time as some threads recommended. didnt work. hmmm maybe ill just use Yahoo plugin for my news/weather.

my phone dropped today lightly on the office carpet, and the back popped open and battery popped out too haha. flimsy back. prob will buy a silicone skin off ebay

Anyone see the iphone skins/plugins? crazy cool! maybe wait until they get all the kinks worked out, but someone said he was running them on his VX6900. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=11507

tried GPS again today, was off again. didnt lock after 20m, but it was cloudy again in Philly. whats all the stuff in GPSViewer mean? like...
1. Power Save - does this use minimal power when searching for signal? why shouldnt i always press this? how about the option next to it WAA somethin.
2. Hot, Cold, Warm Start? when should i press these?
3.'Aquiring 3D' message: does that mean it has pretty much locked except for height?, Google maps should be usable now right, since dont need height info for 2D directions?

I more concerned with getting GPS to work, than the MMS stuff (aka the sending pics via phone right?).
Always got my reg ole' camera or use Activesync to get photos off the phone.
