There is very little that can go wrong with a stock flash like this. :)

Edit: oops I should refresh before I post Jason25 already said same thing. :)

Yes NFL & Nascar is much faster as well has the whole OS. Looks to me like everything has been updated except Live Search hasn't been upgraded to Bing.

So we finally have a version of NFL live that works with the Touch Pro?

I don't quite see it like that. I see so much excitement and mystery filled throughout these pages over the new ROM. Almost like getting very bored of your girlfriend and meeting a new exciting chica.

Now the main question.... can she cook..... ROMS?

If you mean by "works" that it is slower than the previous version then yes.

Did you install and then hard reset? NFL is running MUCH faster than before. I sure do miss 6.5 tho!

Re: New sprint oem rom!!
 
This rom has 1.12.34f radio and a much later PRI then stock.

I recall from the Mogul days how updating the PRI to match the radio really made a difference in odd things like GPS locks and battery drain. What I don't know is how we get that PRI onto our phones with custom roms.

So, short of flashing to THIS rom, then re-flashing to a custom rom, anyone know of a better way to get the PRI from this rom onto a TP?

Can I just extract the ROM from the .exe package and flash by the SD card? The 100+ MB file isn't named RAPHIMG.nbh or whatever, but if I rename it will it work?

Also - if the radio gets replaced and I want to stick with my preferred Verizon radio, should I worry at all about reflashing it again? This is really important to me!

I have flashed the original stock ROM a couple times via microsd while the phone was unlocked and had no issue. As to whether you would have an issue with this new one...probably not, but I definitely wouldn't guarantee that.

Re: New sprint oem rom!!
 
Wow I just tried this rom and I am really liking it!! Touch flo is much much faster. At first it was slow but it seems like it's caching it or something. But ea subsequent use it's very nice.

It just seems way more usable, less buggy and more intuitive. Took a few minutes and got google maps on again, contacts back on, gmail push working... I'm liking my Tpro now :) hahaha

Paul_Hammons 09-25-2009 08:18 PM

Re: New sprint oem rom!!
 
I noticed it has a few other version upgrades.
Windows is 5.2.2.21054 (build 21054.1.6.7) vs 5.2.1.19965 (Build 19965.1.2.3)
windows Live for mobile = 10.6.0052.1300 = newer than what you can get from Microsoft.

That is all I have notice so far that has not been mentioned here.

Yes, i have noticed. I'm not sure how i feel about the new rom. I was really hoping for windows mobile 6.5 or at least a major upgrade. This isn't really a upgrade at all. All they basically added was slide to answer and a few tweaks to make the device preform faster. I haven't tested the gps but after just trying the rom for 20 minutes i woulden't get my hopes up. I guess i could either customize it a bit or upgrade to a custom rom.

Re: New sprint oem rom!!
 
this may be a stupid question... it says everything will be erased including contacts, calendar, 3rd party apps, etc. Can I do a Sprite backup of everything and after the flash, reload the backup?

Seeing how this ROM was built about 2 months ago who knows if a 6.5 one will ever surface.

Happy to report that the SD card flash worked fine, and DID NOT relock the phone - so I went back to my preferred radio. Now to do another hard reset for luck and start restoring everything I can. Hope Good Things 2 Life will investigate this ROM and update his cleanup package.

Is it me or does this version seem to drain the battery? I've got an 1800mAh that goes quickly ...

Thanks, I missed it somehow - well, I did the radio but not the PRI.

Is it normal for HTC to post a screenshot from a working sprint phone on their website that includes the user's data (phone number, email, etc)?

Anyone want to give Chad a call? :evil4:

Nope, that's a different profile (your data profile) - the cab in that other thread did the trick for me, I ran it, then flashed the lastest groove rom 6.5/w updated drivers... working very well.
