It's already being done. Alot of the rom is useless due to the fact its VGA and our screens are QVGA. but many people have extracted drivers, sys, and bases and have integrated them into their roms. look around. you will find them. :)

Thanks for posting the tutorial negamann. Worked like a champ for me and I'm loving the GPS. I went with OMJ's Generic Custom rom and haven't had any real problems.
The only thing I've noticed so far is the top row of pixels is messed up. When I rotate the screen the problem follows. It's almost like the GUI is 1 pixel lower than it should be. Has anyone else seen this?

You're talking about the custom battery meter on the top?

No, I'm talking about the entire top row of pixels on the screen.
After more investigation, it's only on screens with the start bar. Full screen programs are fine.
It's like the start bar is pushed down by 1 pixel. The only reason I notice is there is a red to blue gradient right above the start button (looks out of place). I thought maybe it was an artifact from quick menu or something?

I've never tried OMJ's rom but I must say the latest ppckitchen 20270 has finally fixed GPS!!!! and is the fastest rom i've ever used!!!! No exaggeration! This is the #1 rom for verizon users!!! shall I post a pre-cooked rom so you guys can see the magic?

hey negamann,
made my first rom based off of it wasnt too impressed. again that first lock is taking 2-3 minutes. but if it consistant and always locks in under 3 minutes, ill be more impressed hehe. after the first lock, locks in under 3-10s. but that first lock time is important, as your location will change and locks wont take 3s anymore.
so if anyone reports 10s locks, please refer to the 1st lock at that location, not the ones after 1st.

"made my first rom with newest kitchen 20270, installed the 3 files mentioned in other thread, added those regedits, the NV one and messed with GPSMode 1, 2, 4. then soft reset and tested each gpsmode, i got a lock in 2.2 minutes. nothing special was getting those kinda locks before with other roms. if it can get 2m locks consistantly then thats a lil different. ill test tomorrow. if anyone is scared to create new ROM to test, can try mine, although i would clear the Today screen and change to the Pure Black theme so looks cleaner, its my first so just threw a bunch of progs on there, nothing special at all.

i dont know how to do anything fancy like add the regedits, or install the 3 files for you, so do those steps yourself and let me know how it goes. negamann you think you could precook all that into your rom?

What I meant by fixed GPS is when the phone goes in standby, GPS doesnt work after. It does work now. I get a cold-start lock in 1 minute everyime. Didn't do anything special. the OS in general is amazingly faster. I believe the guys over at ppckitchen will have the problems sorted out with the reg stuff. Or if you can get them in cab installers, a program called Tiermann autoinstaller should do the trick for you

So.... we won't have to do about 3 or 4 soft resets to get our GPS working again? If that is the case, PLEASE post a pre-cooked rom for us. I've been very happy with OMJ's OEM rom, but would be willing to reflash to get my GPS working better.

Once again.... THANKS Negamann!!=D>

- Set the server as recommended in the first post
- Made the edits in registry as recommended in the first post
- Hard reset and soft reset
- Did *22800 Opt 1 to program
- Yahoo and MS Outlook work fine
- MMS and Voice Mail send work fine

Any other ideas to fix? Help!
