That's understandable. I'll think on this for a bit. Right off, I can't think of a reason why my ROM would affect reception. I mean, usually that's a radio thing and my ROM does not touch the radio. We'll see... something may magically occur to me one day. I appreciate you giving it another go. I'll let you know should I have any revelations on the reception matter. :)

Well If you could look into it the sprint stock rom 6.5 gives me full reception.

Is there anything different from the radio in that rom vs yours?

I would willing to flash a radio To keep your rom because I think its def. worth it! I dont know how to go about it I know theres a radio thread in this section but Im not too confident in doing so Im afraid I may bick my phone.

UPDATE:

I have no clue what I did or what the phone did but it has full bars now!?](*,)

The phone gave me an error of "Cannot dial #777 connection lost) or some b.s. like that then the phone shut down!

I turned the phone back on and sent a text and now it has full bars!? But for the past 4 hours it had none! and It was stuck on airplane mode and switched between EV and 1x with the globe running.

I have no idea why this happend. But im afraid to touch the phone because it may freak out again. :evil4: lol J/k

Well it looks like I spoke too soon.... Fu#k I hate this!!! I installed a swype cab and restart the phone and its back to its P.O.S. reception...

Sharkie... Loving the rom... running 3.4 6.5.x and have not had any issues, (knock on wood)... great job...

ModMyPPC, have you tried the carrier provisioning under system tools. I know you have the sprint version, but running that sometimes helps...

you also may want to run the "update PRL" which is under settings -> system..

don't know if these will help but maybe worth a try...

Re: 1-30-11★SharkieROM v3.4★Generic\Sprint★29007\21916★Sense2019
 

I'm on day#2 with Sharkie's rom and am loving it too. A few minor issues but overall it's much better than stock. One thing I can't seem to figure out is how to update the PRL. I didn't see it under "settings -> system". Also, what does the Carrier Provisioning program do when you select your carrier and hit "commit"?

Re: 1-30-11★SharkieROM v3.4★Generic\Sprint★29007\21916★Sense2019
 

I also thought about mentioning that, but I assumed that he'd already done that. Perhaps not.

Carrier Provisioning is simply a package of Carrier cabs. I'm on Sprint, so I choose Sprint and hit commit. All that does is start the installation of the Sprint Carrier cab. If you choose Verizon, it will start the installation of the Verizon Carrier cab. From this point you will be at the usual beginning of a cab install where you can cancel out if you need to. I'm not sure about the others since I've only ever installed the Sprint version, but the Update PRL and Update Profile are part of the Sprint Carrier cab. After you install the Sprint cab, go to Settings\System and you will find the Update PRL and Update Profile links.

Oh, after the Carrier cab installs, make sure you soft reset like it's prompts you to.

As a general FYI to anyone who may not have been aware,
After installing a Carrier cab, you may need to reconnect to the newly established Carrier. I usually don't have to, but every once in a while I do. To do this, go to Settings\Connections: Manage existing connections. On the Modem Page (the one that it will open up on) you should see your carrier name. In my case, it says Sprint. Long press the carrier name (right click) and hit connect.

Thanks a bunch, Sharkie! I apologize if this has been asked before but is there a way to add new applications to the start menu folders? For example, I would like to put Slingplayer under the "Multimedia" folder.

Re: 1-30-11★SharkieROM v3.4★Generic\Sprint★29007\21916★Sense2019
 

I'm assuming that the Slingplayer link is just sitting on the first page of the Start Menu? If so, using File Explorer, go to My Device\Windows\Start Menu\Programs. Find the link to Slingplayer and press down on it until the menu pops up. Choose cut, then go into the \Windows\Start Menu\Multimedia folder. Once inside, hit Menu on the bottom right and choose edit at the very bottom, you'll have to scroll the menu up to see it. After choosing "edit" then choose "paste". Thus, you have moved the link out of the beginning of the Start Menu and into the Multimedia folder.

Just cut and paste the link! ;)

Sorry for being such a dumba$$ I assumed since it was a sprint rom that the sprint carrier cab would be installed automatically.

Well I did install the carrier cab it installed successfully to device.

I went to the manage existing connections and on the modem page it does show sprint.

Well I tried to update prl and it gave me the error

"PRL could not be updated. Please try again later. If the problem persists, you may need to conatact customer service

Error code: 1012"

Then I tried updating the pofile and I got this error

"The profile update could not be completed. Please try again later. If the problem persists, you may need to contact customer service.

Error code: 1012"

Did you soft reset after installing the Sprint cab?
