New Alltel 3.04.671.2 Rom Released, Rev A enabled

[fredcatsmommy]

can anyone that's got the gps going describe what happens when you use gpsviewer? With my external gps, gpsviewer scans and finds the gps on com4. with the touch, it scans, says open failed on all coms but 7&8 and says "none" for them. I've installed the alltel rom and other files. With googlemaps it says initializing and then says no gps found.

My location is of course set to "on" and GPS configured for port 4 and b/r of 4800. At this point I really dont care until we get a stable working version.

Also for some reason with the new rom, the phone program will not work. Ill keep pressing the talk button, and nothing happens, and a soft reset fixes it. I even stopped cprog.exe and of course the OS re-activated it but it still didnt work.

I know there aren't fixes yet, but just reporting bugs.

and just to update, the picmail site hack is needed to view pic mail as normal. Just like all of the other unofficial roms. (this may have been discussed already)

I had that issue with the alltel rom too ...... however I thought that it may had been a error in my phone however after a couple of presses mine would open the phone program ...... but you also have to remember that they originally did not include gps drivers with the rom so that may have a play on it

Im so confused, . How do i check my Radio vers #? and all i need to enable gps and reva is the gpstest2.1? (CDMA TOUCH HERE!!!)

I dont need to flash to alltel from first do I? I think i racked my brain reading all the diff roms out there... thanks for your clearification (..could u maybe spell it all out for me , lol)

To check your radio version on your Touch:
go to Start --> Settings --> System Tab --> Device Information ( radio Version - 3rd down)

To answer your question: Yes you do need to flash Alltell ROM first -- READ this Thread http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=24979 <-- READ IT ! someone already did your homework, so you don't have to.

hope it helps.

How about a new bootloader unlocker?

weird... i flashed this after updating to cokemans 3.51 er something.. seems fine. actually Ive gotten alot further than I was with the supposed verizon rom. Still no rev A and still roaming and cant ota cos I need to change the SPC code but no means to have it recgnized as modem. bricking? seems a bit rash.. me thinks you didnt follow instructions silly boy
