Help with a VZ Touch -- which ROM

Can someone please tell me a good rom that will work on my Verizon CDMA TOUCH? Ive seen all kinds of roms here but don't know which one will work on Verizon, if any.

The main thing I want is WM 6.1 upgrade. Although I am certainly willing to wait for the seemingly close WM 6.1, EVDO Rev A, and GPS enabled rom... I figured I would get some experience with another one first.

Re: Help with a VZ Touch -- which ROM

There won't be a RevA GPS enabled Rom until VZ and/or Sprint release the upgrade. Only then will you see custom ROMs with RevA and GPS.

Until then, it's completely your pick. All the major chefs post quite detailed ROM descriptions, there is also a sticky on the top that showcases the major ones. Pick what you like the most, or try a few of them. That's pretty much what everybody else did.

As far as what works with VZ and what doesn't: Any of the Vogue ROMs will work on your VZ one, except for may be a few carrier specific features, such as Sprint TV (no big loss there though).

Re: Help with a VZ Touch -- which ROM

So, you are saying I can use ImCokeMan's unlocker on a VX6900... and then load let's just say.... OMJ's v8 6.1 ROM and it will work fine? Is there anyone who has tried this? And then I assume I'd have to search for the OEM progs that were on that originally. Have any Verizon OEM 6.1s been made? I didn't see any so far. But it is quite early.

Re: Help with a VZ Touch -- which ROM

Hopefully there will a RevA & GPS enabled ROM in the next few days since Alltel has released a ROM upgrade

Re: Help with a VZ Touch -- which ROM

I'll try it... let you know in a few minutes

EDIT: OK... it hung up my phone on the Verizon boot screen Probably a bad idea for a noob to do this test for you. Either way I am going to try to get my phone back using the SD card

Re: Help with a VZ Touch -- which ROM

I would be happy to try, but for some reason I can't connect to the ftp via the browser or ftp client to download it... NM... I got through, gonna try it now.

Update - It appears that my unlocked phone also got stuck after the flash at the VZW Logo screen as well. I already flashed a custom from bits and pieces from various kitchens, so I know thats working... not sure whats going on here, but I recovered and am back to stock.

Let me know if there are any other builds to try.

Appreciate the work!
