New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
1 Attachment(s)
This is a new ROM I have been able to get, its not released on Verizon site yet, so just use with caution. I have been using it for a few days now, and everything is good. Not a lot is updated in there. Its very similar to the other ROM, but does have a new SYS, and new Radio.

I enjoy it. Thought I could share it at least.

Nice. I see what Radio version is in there, but what build of WM6.5 is it? 23xxx? 28xxx? Still 21xxx?

Thanks for the file. Now if we can flash just the radio, that would be nice. :)

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
Thanks for the info conflipper. I might flash this over the weekend as I just got done doing a hard reset this week anyway. If it improves the memory usage some that alone would be worth the time. And hopefully the radio is a little better at holding 3G and maybe even slightly better reception even though it's already pretty good in that dept.

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
So is there any noticeable change with this new rom? Better 3G locking? Faster? Anything?

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
Thanks, I'm going to give this a try, hopefully it fixes the memory leak.

One easy form is by SdCard

1. Copy the NBH file to root of storage card
2. Rename to Whiteimg.nbh
3. restart the phone, push vol down and end button at the same time before splash screen shows
4. follow the instructions

I just overwrote the "RUU_signed.nbh" file in the stock rom flasher with the new one.

slumpey326 02-05-2010 03:27 PM

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
for step #3, do you hold the vol down and end button and wait for the splash screen to show up or do you just press it one.

You can... Just extract the files from the original updater, and rename and replace "RUU_signed.nbh" with the file provided for download.

I just flashed mine via this method, with no issues.

Did you do that on your pc ? I know how to overwrite on the phone but have not done it on a pc , how do you go about it?

Hopefully this should help :)

Step 1 - Download the original shipped rom from here.
Step 2 - Use a program such as 7-zip to extract the contents of the .exe file
Step 3 - Delete the file labeled "RUU_signed.nbh"
Step 4 - Copy the file you extracted from the download in this thread to the folder you just created, and rename it to "RUU_signed.nbh".
Step 5 - Run RomUpdateUtility.exe

Just FYI, if you don't have extensions enabled in windows explorer, you won't see the ".nbh" ending. If you don't see this, don't include ".nbh" in the file name when you rename it, or the program will see it as "RUU_signed.nbh.nbh," and it won't work.

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
I flashed this rom to my phone, and truthfully i dont like it as well...it seems to me like it is running slower...maybe it just needs some time. im gonna try it over night to give it a chance..so far, the only thing i have noticed, i can hear better on it..i was going to go into the registry and increase the volume, but this one is already set at 5 unlike the shipped rom that was set on 2.

calebt 02-05-2010 08:05 PM

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
thank you Maxtcee for asking that, I guess I was not clear in the way i asked other then radio and sys is it worth uping to this. or just wait for hspl

conflipper 02-05-2010 08:26 PM

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
I never had issues with 3G in past. So I cant comment on that. I have had others comment about how the Radio did give better reception, and that the SYS did run smoother, with less lag.

huh. my experience is the opposite. this sys runs much faster/smoother without any tweaks compared to the old rom. I have more memory without tweaks then before ~ 60% @ boot. it also seems like i have more free internal storage @ 148mb with a couple apps installed already. i do not remember what i had before but maybe someone knows.

Visually nothing has changed. Radio will affect everyone differently but considering the problems people have had with data I would assume this radio is meant to address them.

the new sys in my opinion is better then the old one but others may disagree. cetainly 6.5 has come a long way and we started with a pretty old version of it. basically i would suggest flashing unless you really don't want to reinstall everything again. might as well get used to it though with hspl testing getting closer.

maxtcee 02-05-2010 09:05 PM

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
thanks for your input i beleive the old rom was at 180 somthing currently im running the 2.5 sense being that were getting a blizzard this weekend i might try it out and see if it adresses any kinks in 2.5

conflipper 02-05-2010 09:11 PM

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
Anytime you install cabs that large wiht has many files for 2.5 it is going to cause issues. if you look at the number of files 2.5 uses to run everything the way it should, the amount is unreal. And so personally I dont do it for that reason, Because it is going to be taxing on the device.

I second this request...


Conflipper, 3 quick questions:

1) do I have to put the phone into bootloader before I run this. Is this the right instructions to access bootloader:


To access bootloader mode on imagio, do the following:

-Power down device.
-Press and hold the "-" volume key (volume down NOT up).
-Power up the device, release volume key once bootloader mode has shown on the screen

2) Do I need to rename this file at all when I put it in the RUU folder

"Whitestone_WIMG_VERIZON_WWE_3.04.605.7_RS_2.25.00 WVL_NV_VZW_1.94_1112_PRL58005_Ship.nbh"


3) Is this the correct Overall instructions to flash properly:

* Just put you Imagio in (tri colored screen) Boot loader mode. SEE ABOVE
* Connect the usb to your computer.
* Run the file (which is an .exe file) from your computer.
ROMUpdateUtility.exe in RUU folder

conflipper 02-05-2010 10:00 PM

Re: New ROM VZW 3.04 Shipped
 
Download and Double click to install.


If you are doing the other method,
you can just copy the file into the RUU folder. no need to rename anything,
plug device into USB port and PC
double click the ROMUpdateUtility.exe
And follow the prompts.

This will be just like flashing a regular rom.


I have now changed that so you can just load up the .exe that I have posted above, and it will be just like an official ROM.
