I'm also having pretty bad drops in data transfer. Downloads over 400k take 4-5 attempts. When it does work, it's fast, but it's getting to the point where I'm almost ready to downgrade :(

The signal bars go away for a few seconds (the data arrows stay) and the connection drops. Pissing me off :(

I also have tried and cannot download any cab files from the phone. Also like AnthroMatt said SPB hangs and will not load. I also notice that TOMTOM will not allow the gps to pick up unless it has been acquired via Livesearch or Google Maps first and one of the programs is still running. Also Weather panel gives you an error when loaded, something about invalid layout or waiting on the storage card. But seems to work fine once the layout has been changed.

Well, I Hard Reset my Mogul and now Bluetooth works just fine.

How about that.

I was able to load the new rom easy and without a hitch. after loading it seemed a little skidish and I have had to soft reset more than usual. GPS works great with iNav and googlemaps but takes along time to lock but once locked it seems to work good and stay connected even when I turn it off. I have noticed a DRAMATIC usage in battery life. I did expect to use more battery but this is extreme in my case. I had the battery at 100% at 7:45 and I turned on google maps and locked in the GPS. Took a 10 minute drive and went into the club for a swim, when I went in I turned off the mogul. I did not take any calls, no text, and I have yet to set up email. I also did not do any IE. At 9:45 when I came out of the club and turned on my phone I was already down to 60%!!!!

No RevA here. I'm in one of those "extra" Evdo areas where it actually comes from Alltel instead of Sprint even though you aren't roaming. No change in data speed that I've noticed. Slingbox works just like before...great.

GPS works good. Sometimes it is off by 100-150 yards at times but works good for a phone GPS. Even picks up inside some buildings.

Here's the big kicker for me. With Rom 2.17 and PRL 60610, I can set the phone to Roaming Only and get EVDO service. After I load this ROM and it is still at PRL 60610, when force roaming I only get 1X. Using the ##DEBUG# I can see the phone sometimes pick up Verizon....attach...then it finds the Alltel SID and I'm assume it's preferred so it sticks to Alltel. Still 1X, I can see it hit channel 73 which is the EVDO channel and passes right on by. So basically when I go back to work next week I'll have 1X only instead of EVDO in the building since Sprint's signal stops at the door of the building. I'll definitely be bringing the older ROM to reflash so I can get EVDO back up.

So fix the roaming issues in the radio and it'll be great!

Loaded 3.16...WOW

Summary: the only things I would add to a bug list so far, if someone is compiling it, are the unfriendly ROM loader, and the DNS servers were set to all zeroes.

As detailed below I am not seeing a lot of the issues that were reported in this thread on my device.

Details: I have not put it through its paces yet, but first indications are great. I hope loading could be made more user-friendly; after it loaded the new BL it required me to unplug the device and remove/replace the battery. After it resumed I went to eat dinner, and when I came back it was done, so I don't know if it paused at any point after that. Since I was testing the Sprint ROM, I let all the customizations load.

I went in to Phone>Menu>Options>Services>Internet and started IOTA manually, then I had to fix the MSID and MDN. I left SCI at the default of 2, and the True MCC and True IMSI were different but I left them to see what that would do. I have not noticed any effect.

Sync thru WMDC on Vista seems blazingly fast after using it on the 2 series ROMs, but is probably actually the same speed as I used to get on my xv6600 and Activesync on Win XP. And the Mogul no longer seizes up during sync; I could actually use it at the same time it was syncing.

GPS - I did not touch the External GPS settings, after all I was testing internal GPS, and iGuidance 3.0.1 popped to my location about 10 seconds after I set it to Com4 and 9600 baud. Latitude and longitude were rock solid, but my altitude was varying from about -50 feet to about 30 feet. I was indoors and locked onto 4 satellites.

Turned the device off (sleep mode) and dialed it from a landline, it woke up and rang on the second ring heard on the landline, despite the fact that I left SCI at the default of 2.

I set up my gmail account, works properly.

I had some problems locating websites, so I setup the DNS servers (it was all zeroes) and the problem went away.

The best download speed I could get on DSLReports Mobile Speed Test was 640 kb. That test does not indicate upload speed. I did not tether.

Sprite Backup works properly, though I have not tried a Restore yet.

The Mogul boots up quickly from a soft reset, and locks on to EVDO signal immediately.

So far I am VERY happy with the ROM.

I am currently downloading, hopefully I am one of the lucky ones because I am kinda scared to load it.

Ive noticed that the internet drops sometimes. Its not like it used to be when the bit rate degrades,instead,it seems to be running perfectly,then nothing. It seems to be connected to windows mobile becoming unstable. When it happens the Xbutton icon at the top of the screen becomes corrupted and the phone becomes very sluggish and I cant start applications.

I reset the info in ##DATA# and changed my vision password to initiate IOTA but it hasn't come through yet. It did pick up a signal within a few seconds but when I try to connect to vision, I now get error 67.

I had skipped the sprint customizations so I didn't have IOTA and that's why it wasn't working. I just took it from the zip someone posted with all of the sprint addons.

Once I installed IOTA, it tried to reprovision but I got error 1012.

Changed my vision password online again to see if it will work when initiated from their end.

Didn't work but once I restored the info in ##DATA# and manually ran IOTA, it worked fine. I can get online and I don't have any issues picking up an EVDO signal after soft reset.

Filing under "Solved" for me at least.
3) No longer can roam on Verizon towers

Will edit with step-by-step of what I try as I go along.

Please read the first post in this thread. The OP is trying to have created a list of issues with the TEST PACKAGE; if you did not run the Sprint customizations, you do not have the TEST PACKAGE, and your issues, and those of any others without the complete package, should not be included.

idk if the thread title is quite appropriate really, its not really a bug list this isnt an official ROM. who knows you could be using an alpha/beta build of the gps rom, not the final. So i dont see much point in picking it apart and bug hunting till the official one is actually out. Some stuff may change by then anyways

Did you read the first post in the thread?
