The cause is bad Intel drivers. The problem was fixed earlier this year so update your WiFi drivers and that won't happen anymore.

Damn you're good! I found the latest version (V11.1.1.0). Testing soon.

Thanks for the tip!

I've just installed this rom on Verizon, and I know that MMS has problems with 3.5, but I don't even seem to have access to mms. Is this normal? I also can't receive picture messages. Other than that, this is awesome! Great job.

Ahh, I like clean and simple. Makes it easy for me to start clean and install crap and make it slow again... lol. j/k. C&S is the perfect build for me.

First, this ROM and its predecessor rock. I did my first ROM upgrade with Phoenx06's initial 3.5 build, but after the flawless install it took me about 3 full hours to get all my programs installed on it and the thing sync'd with all my email and exchange accounts.

So the 1.0.4 version came along, so I used SPB Backup to make a backup of all my loaded programs and configurations, used the bootloader to flash the new 1.0.4 ROM, and then restored from my backup. All my programs cae out well...all I had to do was redo my Office shortcuts to reference the new apps.

BUT, one thing I liked on the 1.0.4 Today screen (before I restored from the backup) was the LiveSearch field. How can I get that back (or, how can I install that on my device?)?

Thanks in advance!

You should be able tom find it in Start->Settings->Today->Items

[DougB]

I would have thought so too, but it's not there. It seems that SPB Backup must wipe out anything on the device that's not par of the backup (but minus what's in the ROM...though if that were the case, I'm not sure why the Today item would be gone).

Strange....no biggie if there's no easy CAB install just for the today item. It would be awesome if there were, though.

Thanks!

Sorry about that - I found the instructions but can't post urls yet. I followed the MMS steps for Kirvin's C&S.

Well my first try with this new ROM has crashed and burned. I installed it and skipped the Verizon updates in the EXT_ROM and when I try to do the roaming update after the upgrade it says that it can't program the phone.

Now trying the version from the UTStarcomm website -- went back to Kirvian's and still having problems. Need to go to stock ROM so when I call support I can possibly fix this....we will see.

did anyone noticed how the dialpad looks when you put the phone in landscape mode? it doesn't show properly... otherwise great rom

freaking awesome dude! thanks
