BigJ's NEWCORE 1.1r (RELOADED!) ROM updated: 6-16-07

[BenRivera]

I tried the non Sprint build and it almost works. The vibrate mode does not work on my phone, which I need since I am in a lot of meetings. I sync with Outlook on my laptop and got sync errors saying that I didn't have enough room on my phone to complete the sync. So, I tried to build a new rom with less apps from the kitchen, but the BuildOS will not run.

Any ideas...

Thanks,
Ben

...Please read the thread! I seriously am afraid that if enough people keep asking this same question, that JBabey will simply stop making ROMS for us

The first post of this thread tells you which registry edit to make to bring the vibrate mode back.

As an FYI, Internet Sharing only works for me when Bluetooth is off.

DodgeV83,
Thanks for the vibrate info, I though I had seen something about it, I will look for it. But I really want to be able to use the Kitchen (there are too many apps in the prebuilt rom). Has anyone else been able to use the Kitchen?


Thanks,
Ben

I have a couple questions about this ROM. I am new to the whole smartphone/pda phone world. From Everything I have read this ROM sounds awesome. I do have a couple questions though that I did not see in this thread. Is there a slide lock app on this ROM or one out there I can install (kinda like the iPhone slide lock) also are there any screenshots of what the theme looks like with this ROM? Thanks for all your help and I am sure I will be asking a lot of questions and probably mostly newbie questions. So thanks for everything.

Thanks BigJ for all the hard work you have put into this. I was chugging along with Verizon 2.07.20 dated 02/24/06 fairly well but what a difference your creation has made! I am a heavy tweaker but always reluctant to flash anything... Your included instructions and contributions in these threads simplified everything.

1 minor issue (more of an annoyance). Most everytime I do a soft reset via either the stylus (manually) or via program request (changing a setting within memMaid for example), upon bootup I get an eternal hang with the big picture of the clock which finally causes me after many minutes ...have waited up to 10... to simply manually force another soft reset w/ the stylus. Upon doing that 9 times out of 10, this 2nd boot is successful.

I'm not sure if my installing Wisbar 2 advance has anything to do with this as that is the only thing I've added post install program wise and with a "startup" entry. Any suggestions besides Uninstalling Wisbar to troubleshoot? - Should I rearrange the startup via MemMaid to anything specific or somehow remove Handyswitcher or whatever thinking it might have a boot conflict with Wisbar?

I have built several roms from the kitchen. So far every one has worked with no problems other than finding programs that i didn't need or use. I have even added some other oems and everything is great. I'm on alltel so that may be why i haven't had any issues

I can't build a rom. When I try to run BuildOS it crashes. That is as far as I can get.

Thanks,

I just tried that now with no luck. it seems I dont have a CDMA modem listed in my laptop phone/modems settings and xp is not asking me to setup one when I plug the 6700 to USB.
Also I tried WModem, hit start and got the error "could not prepare vision services, please initiate IOTA on device and try again" Which sounds like the DUN is not activated. So I need to get the ## working.

I struggled with this initially as well. Internet Sharing is the only thing that actually worked for me and here is how I did it:

1) TURN OFF BLUETOOTH
2) Click on Internet Sharing
3) Make sure the PC Connection setting shows USB. Also, Network Connection shows Sprint PCS Vision, so I don't know what it would show on Verizon.
4) Click on Connect.
5) WARNING - only after the above four steps can you plug-in your phone using the USB connection. You might have to plug/unplug a couple of times for it to work, although it generally works the first time.

Good luck!
