I have a verizon xv6900 and have read all 56 pages. It seems like I would be able to run the exe and then not allow the customizations and all will be great.

Well I have tried it twice and all I can get is

ERROR (294) : INVALID VENDER ID

This Update Utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please check your Update Utility.

VXa3-VPIX5567-SQEVc568-VPIX55670

Anyone know what I should do??

I haven't seen this question asked so here goes, maybe it's just me, well, me and a friend...

Our touch's don't automatically have the "location" enabled even though in the settings it is clearly marked "on". I have to turn it off and then close everything then open the settings back on and turn it on then it will show the icon while in dialer mode that it is on.

Anyone else having this problem? I have done a hard reset and yes other things were fixed but this is the ONLY problem I am having since the new install.

Please help....


THANKS

BINGO! That fixed it for me, thanks! I didn't know that was a GPS signal
on the phone dialer.

First off all, thanks. I've been waiting for this update for a long time and it's pretty amazing I got it here and not from Sprint or HTC. Guess they think you guys are the best beta site. Props to all. It went pretty smoothly, patience is a virtue. GPS works great, not quite sure yet about rev a, freezes, bluetooth, storage card, etc. Seems like some locations changed, like call log, text files, etc.

I didn't have the patience to read over 50 pages of threads, so I guess I really am to blame for setting everything up then reading and realizing that there's no better time for a hard reset than after you burn a rom. It definitely can't hurt at that point and it seems like it could definitely help. It does make me ask though, can someone suggest the best procedure for backing up prior to a hard reset. Seems like there's a lot of info about not restoring using various utilities after a new rom, so basically I would like a list of locations for stuff that gets wiped out with rom burns or hard resets. I use outlook and activesync, so contacts are not a problem (although I do copy my pim file as a precaution). I do find activesync sometimes deletes the folder on my PC where I sync my files, very annoying. Any insight into this would also help.

My main concerns are

Email account setup info
call logs
text messages
Voicetag file(s)
cube configuration files
settings (I know this one is probably not a single file)
anything else you would definitely backup and restore after reset.

Thanx again, you guys really know your stuff!! So far I'm loving my touch again and glad I didn't rush and trade it in for an Instinct. It looks like that one is really a closed system with limitations, but sometimes simple is better.

I am having the same problem... how do you keep the location enabled on after a reboot? In dialer, the gps symbol shows disabled unless I go to settings and switch location off, location on...

Doesn't seem to be keeping that setting or else the dialer is lying?

[SprintTouch08]

its probably just the icon. If location was truely off you wouldnt have gps working. Prob just a faulty icon, i wouldnt worry about it much
