ALLTEL WM 6.1 finally HERE!! {Merged}

[shadow-tech]

Ext_rom info:
Alltel_ShopNow.cab ---------------------- Alltel Shop Program (purchase appz and games over the phone)
Alltel-Nav-htc-6800mr-2.0.08.cab -------- Alltel Navigation Program (30 days free then charge monthly fee)
Cab_Alltel_Magmic_dll.cab --------------- Allltel Games and More Program (loads PIE page. says 'no games availible for your device')
express_240x320_props.arm.cab --------- Express Program (I think its like news, weather, mail, stocks)
getmail.ppcwm5.Release.alltel.cab -------- Get mail (havent used this yet)
Hidden.cab ------------------------------ Alltel themes (kinda cool ones, green is actually gold)

let me know if you know what all some of the other ones do.

I would say only these to should be used:

WMP.cab

the rest is junk.

Alltel Nav is $10.00 per month after the first 30days. Personally I think it should be included considering how much some of us pay per month. $190.00 here..

If I have to call Alltel, there may even be a option on my account on line to cancel the service.

If you have turned on the Alltel Nav (like I have) and want to disable it there is a setting to do it.


From the main menu -> Tools & Extras -> About -> Cancel Subscription button -> Cancel Subscription? Yes ~ No.


Now I need to go load the Shadow Tech GPS Hack.



Also I want to thank everyone for the great info! I finally have my golf GPS working.

Third thread's the charm.

I've tried accessing the GPS thru Google Maps and LiveSearch and keep getting an error. Are there settings (Port/Baud) that I must check or specify in order for the GPS to work? I have the "location on" set, already. Thanks.
(or do I just need to do the ShadowTech trick)

[shellguy]

The baud rate should be 4800 and the program port should be set to com4. under gps settings. The shadow tech trick is for faster locks.

Thanks for the tips...it took some reading...but setting the port and baud rate...and THEN applying the Shadow-tech trick did it. Very fast and LiveSearch was spot on my location.

[shellguy]

Very good Jtcrusader congrats bro.
