I'm writing this post as a sort of help post for those using Mighty Rom on their Verizon version of the Touch Pro. As the VzW version has less ram than any of the other versions Mighty's Rom must be tweaked a little to get the maximum amount of Ram available after installation, yet leaving the awesome responsiveness of the rom. For anyone else wanting extra Ram you can also read on. Thank you so much Mighty Mike and LilRico for everything you guys do and for giving us all such a great rom to use on our devices.
Changing the Page Pool to get additional RAM
First this posting assumes you already know how to, or have already unlocked your Verizon Touch Pro. If not please visit here to get started:

Make sure you've also read the FAQ for this rom itself located here, after it loads scroll down past the wallpapers:

Ok so you've unlocked your Touch Pro and downloaded the Mighty Rom4.16_032509R.rar file to your desktop by going here:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=52695
Unzip the Mighty Rom4.16_032509R.rar file into the Flashing RUU folder where your going to do the flash then use the following steps.
1) Navigate to the Flashing RUU folder, then navigate to where you unzipped Mighty Rom 4.16. (It will also be named RUU. I usually rename it to the Rom version I'm about to flash so theres no confusion with the actual Flashing RUU folder)
2) Select the program in the folder that says PAGEPOOL CHANGER.
3) After it loads, a screen will pop up. You click on SELECT. Another screen will pop up. Select the ROM image "RUU_Signed.nbh" and click OPEN
4) Now on the screen you will see the little bubble next to the number 24 is selected. Use the pointer and select the 6 bubble and make sure the . is in it.
5) On the same screen once your finished click CHANGE TO and then wait a moment while it does it's thing and then click close.
6) now you will be back in the same directory as the Mighty Rom image you just changed. Copy and paste the RUU_Signed.nbh file into the RUU folder and now flash the rom to your device.
7) After it totally finishes the flashing procedure, you set the screen and all customizations are installed, you at the Home screen. Click on Start, setting, CLEAR STORAGE and hard reset the device. It's very important to Hard reset after putting a new ROM on your device to make sure everything is set up properly. Junk can remain in your ram after a flash and cause problems. So again make sure you hard reset after the initial flashing.
8 )After it hard resets, you set up the screen and the customizations load and you are now at the home screen, SOFT Reset the device by using your stylus and hitting the soft reset button by the Mini USB port. It's important to SOFT reset after a hard reset to make sure everything is set up properly.
Ok you are back at the home screen. With the Page Pool change you now should have about 44 megs of Ram available after everything loads. You will also notice very little decrease in speed. As a matter of fact the Rom is super fast and you have the added ram boost for your apps. But wait.. Theres more ! We can get another 10 megs of Ram by following the next steps.

TIPS SECTION:
1) To use the SMS features you must install the Verizon Arcsoft cab to DEVICE. It works perfectly on my device.
2) To alter Touch Flo 3D download DiamondConfig.cab I attached to this post. You WON'T have to delete the tweaks.xml file and wont get an error message that you get with other versions of this same config tool. It works out of the box. With this you can change the layout of TF3D and back up themes and all sorts of stuff.
3) Some programs won't free up RAM properly after you exit them. I use a program from HTC Addicts called clear RAM. I use level 3 and it really does a great job of restoring your ram properly. Just be advised after using it it will activate the phone app and restart TF3D. But when its done you will have your ram back and wont have to Soft reset. I've attached it to this post.
4) After a fresh flash and hard reset, its important over the next 24 hours to throw your Touch Pro some random SOFT reboots.
5) LilRico has made custom themes that work specifically with Mighty Rom. Before installing or uninstalling any theme make sure you DISABLE Touch Flo 3D FIRST ! Get the themes here:

6) You do NOT need to do anything with this rom or change any settings for the GPS to work. I've used both GoogleMaps and Microsoft Live Search and both work right out of the box without any need to mess with any settings after flashing. Make sure you update QuickGPS and are outside and not trying to use it inside by a window. Do NOT install lllboredlll's GPS fix with this rom. This rom automatically unlocks the GPS.

Verizon Native Apps installation and questions:
1) To install VzW Appzone application download the prime installer cab attached to this post. BEFORE installing it you MUST do the following for the app to properly Identify your device as a Touch Pro. Load p your Registry editor and follow the Directions:
Navigate to:
HKLM\Security\Internet Explorer\User Agent
You will see the value:
Sprint PPC6850SP
Click on it and change the value to:
480x640; XV6850; Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional;
Click done/save and thats it..
Now Install the Vz Appzone cab to the DEVICE and NOT while connected or syncing to a PC. It will work nicely now.
2) VzW GPS Navigator will NOT work with this ROM. It requires different GPS drivers that are not included in the ROM. Who wants to pay for free navigation anyways !
6) Visual Voicemail Does NOT work on the Touch Pro. This is a VERIZON issue and has nothing to do with Mighty Rom ! I'll update if Verizon decides to make the app work with our Touch Pro's.
