Verizon XV6900 No Signal

[mwfielder]

Hoping to consolidate issues with reception after flashing new radios/ROMs on the VzW Vogues...

I ran a stock VzW Vogue for over a month--no issues. Decided to take the plunge and upgrade the device. Ran IMCokeMan's 2.31 unlocker, flashed the leaked Sprint ROM (didn't allow customizations), then ran OMJ's Verizon OEM ROM. All went well, but took forever to get signal (kept "searching...."). Eventually got signal. Activated it online, *228, option 1. That went through. But when it soft resetted (after successful activation), it takes forever to get signal again (like 30 min or so).

Reflashed same ROMs (leaked Sprint, OMJ's OEM Verizon). Same thing.

Then tried the Alltell ROM (to get 3.37.10 radio)....same thing. Flashed JD's hybrid ROM on top just to see if it helps. Nope.

So I have signal now, but if I soft reset...takes forever to lock on.

Anyone else had this issue? Any thoughts on how to fix it? What did I do wrong?

I've just started having this exact problem yesterday..thing is I've been flashing mine for months. Just happened out of no where..

Did you try to run the SPL unlocker to overwrite the process? i have read a tutorial here, but i don't think it'll be guaranteed to work unless you've tried it.

Hey, I had the same exact problem. I fixed it with a registry edit. I've uploaded it to rapidshare for you.

Just remove the .txt from the end and import it with Memmaid or whatever.

Hope that helps.

I tried to import it as a registry setting using Resco Explorer, but it's saying "The specified file is not a registry script". I took the _1_.txt off the end so its showing as a .reg file. Any help appreciated, I really want this to work!

Oh yeah, that _1_ shouldn't be there. So the full file name should be RegistryExportGPSMode.reg and I know Memmaid will make it happen. I didn't think it was specific to the program, but give it a shot. They've got a free trial.

I have a registered copy of Memmaid too... just hadn't installed it yet. So I installed it and imported those registry settings. Soft reset, and I'm still waiting for signal. I'll wait awhile see if I get connection, and soft reset again. Ugh. Why is this not working for me!!!!!

I did install the Titan radio exactly as specified in your link (downgraded the SPL, installed the new radio, and then went back to 2.31). No help either.

Did you mean anything else?

Is this thread talking about Voice Radio Signal Reception or GPS Signal Reception?

Voice for me, the original poster.
