VERIZON users on Custom Rom's - annoying voice-only network notification??

[thayer]

Windows\HTCMessage.exe 82

this is the program(not the dll) causing the message. I found a good task manager that was able to give me that. im going to play around and see if i can't
cant manually make it go away.



Edit: Nothing, I even tried deleting that exe in the windows file using total commander to no avail. I'm not comfortable with the registry so I'll need to study up on which part is which before I go editing like a madman.

Energy does so much customization with his it's impossible. Some people can go straight to SMS, but it doesnt even show up and under OEM in reg entries there is no sms on his latest 28011.

There are plenty of task managers out there. I am just trying to figure out what process owns that message.

The one in Energy ROM cab be found here:

I live on edge of extended myself. discovered this when i reloaded stock to pull infor from registry files. I am on Energy roms, and found if i use 21885 the popups were obnoxious however on his 28011 they are not. what i did find was if you sink towers. (dial *228, option #2) this cut back to once in a blue moon. I also added the 2nd (normally embedded GSM network) network as the phone seems to look for this as well. I get maybe one or 2 popups over a couple of days. that I can handle.

I'll flash 28011 and see what I get. I'm not on the edge of extended. I am either fully in or fully out depending on which office I work out of. I'll post my results tomorrow when I get back to the office.

Missing Data Connection: Add this to your current network connection and when done make sure its set to auto. ( so it switches to data only when needed. I can't do half the things without it)

Go to connections, connections, manage existing connections ... add new... where you see my connection #777

Name: Hint use whatever name your MMS is using, if its verizon, use verizon, if it says VZW use VZW.. Phone connection is cellular line, click next

for enter number use: emgsm.vzw3g.com, click next,

User name: yournumber@emgsm.vzw3g.com
Password: vzw

Your done and almost forgot, reset phone ( turn off & on)

I will flash it this evening and test it out and post the results tomorrow. I'll just be driving through extended network and parking in a verizon zone so it won't cripple me.

His rom is so far superior to the verizon stock rom that I am almost willing to not use the phone for data on the days that I travel...just to keep his rom.

some popups seem to indicate that your phone is looking for data connection. Atleast that's what mine says. it's registering on a voice only network. Add this connection & see what happens

Has anyone even tried the method I use?

I use to have the exact same issue a lot of you are having, but I haven't experienced it once since I started using the method I posted a few pages back and I've flashed my phone at least 3 or 4 times since then.

I would really like to see someone try it to see if it is a simple workaround until we get an actual 'fix'.

I updated the username to as follows on the link below: username = phonenumber@emgsm.vzw3g.com, in case anyone looked before the update

This was suggested as a fix in the following thread:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=97845

Once again, I am unable to test my own solution as I am not currently traveling in an area with limited connection. Please try this and report back.


This is harmless as it just creates a connection entry that can simply be deleted.



Here is the contents of the attached CAB - as you can see it simply creates a new PPP Entry for the internet.



Thanks are always appreciated...

I went ahead and added the embedded gsm line rather than flashing the nrg rom. We shall see.

I just went back and read your post. I gave up last month and went back to stock but with your experience, I think I will try MightyROM again and see what happens. I'm in a heavy "Extended Network" area (Cellular South) and have EVDO roaming on them. I'll try it this week and report back my findings.

Please let us know what happens and good luck.

Thanks.
