question about verizon touch pro so slow

[xxwhixx]

iam having a few problems iam really new at this flashing thing i have unlocked a old phone that i had by flashing it iam very interested in the hole thing .... i have read alot about it but for some reason i must be retarded and dont get it at all iam trying to flash a rom onto my phone that will look cool but will also make my phone alot faster anyone have any ideas of anything that will work for me i really dont use my phone for more then going on the internet watching videos and texting and picture mail ....any help would be great thanks ahead of time ...

for verizon touch pros my first suggestion is to read the unlocker thread and the flashing faq afterward. From then, choose a rom you like (for verizon touch pro, scrosler's roms, bored roms are good but if you are a bit adventurous try NRGZ with an 8 mb page pool and yes that is explained I'm sure in the flashing for first time faq)
it makes it faster, well updating the rom does i should say

great for some reason i cant unlock the phone when i try to flash the hspl it gives me a code 202 ....... hmmmm when i go to the bootloader it says at the top security unlocked and spl 0.40.000 ? no idea whats going on there so i decided just to try to flash a rom on there just to see if the phone has already been unlocked (bought used) and then it gives me a error 262 .... iam confused i just need this phone to be faster i just switched carriers and sold my htc fuze and now iam very unhappy with the performance of this phone ...grrrrr

Follow these directions to the letter... http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42503

When its unlocked it will say 0.35.CMONEX

If it doesnt say CMONEX its not unlocked

Then flash a rom

Long shot here, but make sure you're running the latest version of Active Sync (4.5) or if you're on Vista, download the latest Windows Mobile Device Center. And for good measure, and this (sometimes) will cause errors like what you're having, you must make sure you're running .NET 2.0, better yet .NET 3.5 and all updates for .NET before attempting to flash.

My sister was getting everything from the errors you have, to blue screens of death mid-flash (YIKES!) because of outdated, and missing .NET. Thank god the BSOD didn't kill the phone!

try unlocking it from the sd card, or try putting your phone in bootloader then running the unlocker on the computer.

hmm i had no problems unlocking my phone. I have vista 64 bit, and used windows mobile device center, i downloaded the .35 SPL posted on the sticky, make sure the PC has all the .NET framwork. make sure that it can connect to activesync or WMDC. reset the phone and put it into bootloader mode, then run the unlocker. thats what i did, and it worked on my first try. *now this is what i did and i wont take any responsibility for a bricked VZW phone =p* currently running migty rom 6
