Navigate to that directory where you unzip it too, and run RomUpdateUtility.exe

So I want to unzip them to my computer and NOT my phone, right?

Also... Do I need to run the unlocker with this ROM? I am using the Sprint OEM ROm and I did not have to unlock it first.

Skaceli or OMJ,

regarding the ICS fix... can you post the VZW ROM that fixes vzw ICS or is there a way to fix without total rebuild? would be nice since i just installed 1gb+ of apps, custom wisebar, etc. I need it for road travel. thx!

the HTC diamond stuff is pretty sweet too would be nice to cook in. thanks for your help.

It used to work fine with the previous ROM before GPS and such.
I also tried the tweak from the advanced config where it says open e-mail account. But still the same thing happens so now I have to set it in the options so that it has to display account picker.
Any idea OMJ ?

Also, how can I get back the original dialer that came with the phone? I like it more than vista dialer.

Any update coming soon on the rom ? can't wait
Thanks brother.

here you go, I cabbed up the stock dialer images....

Never hurts to ask. I liked the latest Alltel verion from you OMJ, but after having data connection problems went back to your VZW V2. I miss the improvements in other areas that you continue to do though.

there ya go, all ya have to do is ask.....the only reason I made the Alltel custom (based on leaked sprint) is cuz someone requested....I'll try to get it done this weekend.

My Touch's backlight always turns off after 1 minute, independently of the settings, which is very annoying when I try to use it as a reader.

The only programs I have in addition to the OMJ ROM are JBed and Nue Leds.

Anybody else have this or have an idea how to fix it?

what are the issues w/ JBed & NueLED?

If I tap or touch the icon menu that one works just fine. Any ideas would be great.

this is odd....you may need to hard reset.

Has anyone else had this problem? If i take the battery out and put it back in it runs fine. I should mention i am running XP and it is a sprint touch. Any help would be appreciated, Thank you

did you run the 2.31 unlocker?

3. Rebuilt the ROM without adding anything to it and then reflashed.

So far everything seems to be working fine. Radio 37.15 and Internet Sharing is working as I am writing.

I figured it had to be something with the Sprint networking config.

Hope this helps someone out there.

so it must be something in the Sprint OperatorPKG that is causing the issue....we'll see if ICS works when I finish the Verizon version...

yes, extract the files to yer pc, then run the romupdateutility.exe.....yes, you MUST be unlocked w/ 2.31 to flash a custom rom.

Thanks OMJ, looking forward to it.

I could make it available but it is very basic and this was my first cooked ROM I have made. So I will leave it to OMJ (since he is willing) to put one together.

I did not run the unlocker, It said we may not need to if it is a sprint phone. Should i start over and do it using the unlocker ?

Am I the only one who did not have a problem with OMJ's ROM????

This damn thing was the first GPS ROM that ran for me flawlessly.

Very simple, this is what I did...

1. Install the Sprint leaked ROM (being a Sprint user, LET IT RUN THROUGH ITS CUSTOMIZATION)

2. Install Coke's 2.31 unlocker

3. Install OMJ's ROM

THAT'S IT! HEAVENLY BLISS!!!!

I concur... No problems.

Incidentally, OMJ you are a saint.
Cooking up custom ROMs for everyone.
Wow! And so patient with the multitude of personal complaints...
I am not worthy!

I re-read your posts....it looks like you've already flashed the leaked rom.....which I dont believe sprint users need to be unlocked for.....but the flash any custom, you MUST be unlocked.....2.31 for GPS roms, 0.40 for non-GPS roms.

so in short, yes, run the 2.31 unlocker 1st, then mine.
