why would you tell the guy to flash a gsm rom to his verizon tp2?

just use the cab ICS_and_WModem_Fix from the tweaks thread and it will work great.

I'm actually not sure on this, I believe you should still be able to flash it from the micro SD card even if it isn't "unlocked" as long as you flash to a Stock ROM, but I haven't done it so I'm not sure.

Edit: Does anyone else know if this is possible?

FAILURE!!

So your definition of failure is a 3rd party app doesnt work on it???

LOL

your reasoning is a failure in that the ROM doesnt have to support 3rd apps (although it should, but not required to) perhaps the idea of a win95 app not working on win7 is a good example...

Perhaps Sashimi needs to update there app to work with this or perhaps there is a reg setting needing changed or several other possibilities but the fact a home-grown 3rd party app (and yes I know of it and it is a great app) doesnt work on a ROM isnt the fault of the ROM but the interfacing of the two

now if there is something actually IN the ROM that has failed in your opinion then spit it out but condemnation of a ROM for one app is failure in itself

I generally use Mr. X and Vin's Neodium. It is very fast for a stock Sprint Rom. I think it compares to those 2 in speed.

Update...I don't think anyone is actually receiving my texts either and it just froze my phone? I don't think the 2.5 messaging cab is any good. Anybody else try it?

correct... you can unlock it via SD card without being unlocked since its a signed stock rom

You didn't specify, so I need to ask, is your phone connected as ActiveSync? or Disk Drive?

i understand that should work. my sharing works perfectly as well. i was just wondering if there is something that cab installs that is recommended to have that the regular touch pro method does not include. by touch pro method i mean the way it say to do it in the touch pro 1 essentials thread...delete extension, cmcon=0 ect.

id like to avoid too many cabs if all i need are those reg edits.

i guess what i really need to know is if the way i used is still considered stealth and i wont get charged. thank you.

Since I've flashed the new ROM, I get an error message whenever I do a soft reset. It flashes too quickly for me to read the entire thing, but its says along the lines "dialed #7777, could not connect...." then it has a dismiss button. Any ideas what this is and how to correct it?

Re: Official Sprint 6.5 ROM Touch Pro 2 RELEASE (Official Discussion Thread)
 
I notice that the interface on this ROM is faster than MightROM WAR. I had been using WAR until about 3 weeks ago when I couldn't stand the lag anymore. Sliding from the Home tab to Settings (when the clock was displayed) was so frustrating. Sliding to hide the clock was a slideshow. I went back to stock 6.1/2.1 without knowing that an official 6.5/2.5 would be out today. I am happy to have gone this route because I can easily see the improvement in performance.

This ROM has some curious issues, especially after getting used to the old 6.1 style again, but it seems to maintain the stability and speed of the 6.1 stock ROM. Hopefully this will be a good base to improve performance even more though another MightyROM!

Who is running cookie's mod on this? Getting any Manila lockups? I just switched to santods 16 link cab to see. Drop in memory used from high to low 50s on boot. Have to wait and see if the lockups go away.

Is it just me or am I the only one who wasn't expecting the Sprint rom to kick ass?
Sprint is not competing with the chefs at all, nor should they. Their job is to put out the most stable and consistent platform that they can. Not the prettiest nor the most loaded. Adding 2.5 was probably more than they should of done. Obviously even they gave up trying to fix its issues.

Hopefully this will prove to be a super stable 6.5 rom that we can use as a base going forward to build it even better. Because despite how pretty the rom was, or how loaded it was or even how close to stable it was, ALL the custom ROMS eventually ran me back to 6.1. Despite how I love my toy it is a work device first and foremost and therefore MUST be completely stable.

Sprint did exactly what they needed to do and even added a little extra. They should be commended for that.

KUDO’s Sprint!

You should try Mr.X 6.5. It is solid and fast as hell. You will throw away 6.1 and not look back.

are the people doing the internal testing capable?

judging from the date the .nbh was compiled, there was 2 weeks to figure simple stuff like that out
That's not new news wrt Owner Name - the chefs have been doing that for us for quite some time behind the scenes.

I think Sprint stole JD's kitchen from his recent release and made this ROM from it lol, but great job they did on it!

In Calkulin's fix, there is actually files being installed.
(IntShr.exe) It might just over-right the old internet sharing app

In the ICS_and_WModem_Fix.cab fix, there are Certificates installed, files added, and there are registry tweaks done. These tweaks effect the subnet mask and things of that nature. It also installs IntShrUI.exe, Internet Sharing.Ink, and intshare.dll.

And it looks like "Mr. X and MightyMike Tethering Tracking Hotfix.cab" does the same thing as Calkulin's fix.

So, it doesn't look like a simple registry tweak will do it for this. =/

I think he was talking about the lack of folders...Easy fix to that though. Use total commander and create forlders in the windows, start menu, programs, section for whatever you want and organize them accordingly. I have done that with a lot of custom roms.:mrgreen:

Those same big icons you can get on WAR so not sure what custom roms your using. WAR blows the Sprint 6.5 out of the water.

I am sure if I look back on the hour that I used it, I may have liked one thing or two, I don't remember though. Let me get some more Captain' in me and maybe I will remember. lol

Does anyone have a fix for the always-flipping clock? I have two cabs that fixed this for the older mightyroms, but they don't work on this one. That, and the always-blinking LED are driving me nuts.

Thanks,
Dave
