Hey Con or Wordie, whats the deal with MMS wanting to work when it wants to, lol, having some problems, I can send pics/videos, but far as recieving them its generally hit or miss. Usually after a soft reset everything works fine, but that is really annyoing because people send me stuff and ask "hey did you get that pic I sent" and I'm like "what pic, resend" so is this just a general problem with 6.1 mobile or this rom, any help will greatly be apperciated!

That's an Alltel thing... and actually it's an MMS thing in general (ask any TMobile Customer). To my knowledge it has nothing to do with the software/rom you're running.

There may be some slight variance in how smartphone/PPC devices handle MMS ping and retrieval than a standard handset but it's not a side effect of Con's rom.

Did you turn 'ON' the Locations setting? Mine works awesome and even better with shadow-techs gps hack.

Yes, location is on and GPS viewer finds it (COM4 as usual), but status gets no fix. It'll show the number of satellites in view for a second, then they blink out. Google Maps shows no satellites, then 1 for a fraction of a second, then blinks out...

to do a hard reset go to to settings>system tab>clear storage, it will tell you to enter 1234 then click yes. You will still be at 6.1 you will just loose all your personal stuff. so move anything you dont wanna lose to sd card and back up all contacts,msgs,emails ect,ect....

Con,

I found an app that you (and many others) may find helpful. It is called OS Remind Me. When you miss a call you only find about it when you look at your Home screen. This app will play a file every "x" to remind you. Kind of funny that something like this wasn't included in the OS from MS/ Every phone I have ever had iver the past 19 years has a missed call reminder built in.

Also, anyone know of a good (and free) app that I can manage incoming calls via their caller ID?

Thanks
