Official Bell Mobility GPS/Sat Radio/Rev A. Update!

[Zewnchops]

Ok, wtf, I can't flash to any ROM anymore, Invalid Command error for everything O_o

The bootloader still says SPL-2.31 COKE too, so I am unlocked. Guess I'll try running the unlocker again, just for the heck of it.

there is no problem like that in the new rom ... i used gps when i left home in the morning ... turned it half way to down town ... turned it on in downtown it locked within 5 seconds ... turned it off went to mississauga and locked again under 5 seconds ...

Is this consistent with everyone else? I want to be 100% sure that the freezing/soft reset issue is resolved before flashing to this.

I am having a problem!! When I am letting the customization run, I et an error regarding ppst. It says "the file: \windows\PPST.exe does not exist!" Has anyone else had this problem? I downloaded and installed the ROM, But when the customizations are running the same thing. I have tried downloading three times maybe there was a corruption with one of the downloads, but the same thing.

You might try to hard reset the phone, and the file might then be present in the windows directory.


Igo8 looks good for sat info, how does it run on this phone with GPS running, I find most apps seem to freeze, lag, and the phone runs really hot since the screen is bright and always on when driving, I guess the power consumption would still be huge when in use but I did see a post that suggested battery consumption is really good on this rom, I hope so.

I noticed in the extracted files there is a few bell specif files.

PPST____.cab
PPSTPatch.exe
Special_4350_for_BM.nbh
VOGUIMG.nbh

there is a couple of new ones there.

AND..... I wonder if the new roms will be based on this one, hehehe, that would be nice.
