OMJ's WM6.1 Custom Touch ROM w/ UC, GPS, REV A! Updated 5/29/08

As far as Google Maps goes go into OPTIONS>GPS SETTINGS> select MANUEL and set to COM 4 and 4800.. GOOD LUCK

Here's exactly what I did:

• I ran the Coke's unlocker v2.31
• Ran the leaked ROM and skipped the customization because I have Alltel
• After boot, I looked for Windows/PPST.exe but couldn't find it. I went to menu, show all files, and still, couldn't find it. The only thing I found that was close was PPST_080401_7500_Alltel_2.01.sa.CAB so I ran it because there was nothing else close.
• After that I flashed it with OMJ's Alltel OEM ROM.

Since then, I have done what you said. I navigated back to my Windows folder to try to find it, and this time I found a file called PPST, but there was no .exe. I clicked on it anyway, as you said to do, and nothing seemed to happen. I hit it again, and still nothing seemed to happen, so I exited and noticed that my phone suddenly had NO service, at all, when it just had full service. I soft reset my phone. When it booted back up, I tried Google Maps again, and now it won't even give me the blue dot. When I tried setting it manually to COM4 and 4800, then clicking Use GPS, it said that it couldn't find any GPS Device. So now, Google Maps works less than it did before.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to get through all of the replies in this great post.

I have a few questions:
1) I accidentally forgot to run \Windows\PPST.exe when the instructions said to. What does not running this do? I was able to make calls and use the GPS with my Sprint Touch no problems. Did I miss out on something by not running that portion of the instructions?

2) Does anyone else have the problem with the HTC home plugin, when you add someone to a favorite, when you restart the phone, it resets it so that they're no longer in there? Has anyone run into this or learned how to fix it? I may re-install HTC home from HTC to see if that fixes it.

/*3) Previously I had the vibrate when I press a key when dialing working, but I've run the install from the file I had before and it no longer works. Does anyone else have a problem with this? If so, how do you fix it?*/ Fixed- I forgot after installing I needed to set the keypress back to short so it'll vibrate. The sounds are gone now and the phone just vibrates. Perfect!

Thanks again for all the awesomeness of this post!

1. PPST.exe upgrades your PRI which greatly improves w/ the GPS locking
2. open the cube (swipe finger up the screen), save the contact on the cube, it will automatically save on HTC Home

I am having the same issues with the camera app as others. I tried taking a few pics the other day and it was impossible. I would hit the snapshot button and it took about 10 seconds to snap the pic and totally missed the intended shot.

Not sure if it is a reg setting or something. Does anyone know?

sorry, but I cannot duplicate this problem....my camera works fine, so I'm not sure what it would be.

OMJ - Try this - put the camera setting to take a contacts picture and see if you notice any difference.

Thanks - Cbus.

Sorry you're having so much trouble. Did you run GPS View(er) before Google Maps? Have you tried any other GPS programs for example Live Search or GPS TODAY. If still having problems I would reflash OR try a different ROM.
