How to upgrade an xv6800 with the new Sprint ROM - Page 21

**GaMedic** · #**201** (**permalink**) 06-23-2008, 10:08 PM

Thanks for your how to guide. The only thing I changed was I didn't run the sprint rom. I ran the radio only. It went off without a hitch. Worked very well. Thanks to everyone for there questions. After reading the entire thread I didn't have anything I felt I need to ask.

Anyone hear of constant resets after flashed? Only does this if not connected to usb...got calls while connected...but if I disconnect it keeps rebooting, endlessly...

Used n2c's 5067 and now 5060 and still same thing...

Help if you can..and thanks

Hi, Im on verizon, and I am having a problem. I upgraded to the new sprint, then I upgraded to the dcd 3.2, and everthing works great except: mms. I added arcsoft and I still dont recieve pictures or can I send them. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Should I start all over again?

Did you turn LOCATION ON in the phone settings?

It really very overwhelming. I found some posts that were pretty explicit, but yet i still was unable to truly understand what the process looked like.
I've made a quick walkthrough document for those a little nervous about their first flash.

hope it helps someone.. it's specific to No2Chem's ROM and PPCKitchen, but is applicable in the same ways, for other kitchens and roms as well.

hey just curious. at the tail end of your "How To..." it says dont let the customization finish do a soft reset if you are not a sprint customer. well i am a sprint customer. so can i let it finish?

If you want all the extra sprint stuff (navigation), let it run otherwise soft reset during the count down.

Need Help!
VX6800
Updated to:
ROM DCD 3.1.2
Radio ROM 3.42.30

Installed GPS Viewer v1.5
Tried with settings set to Com4 and Com8
GPS Viewer states that It can find the GPS on Com4 or Com8 which ever I set it to. But I can't get a FIX. I left it for a few hours and still no FIX.

Com 4 tried Com 8
4800 baud
No hardware port

Any ideas?

Verizon techsupport experience:
Phone works normal now after a few calls to Verizon to activate it properly.
Took several calls because the first few I kept getting girls that had me re-activate the phone several times with no success. I can receive calls but when I make phone calls a recording from Verizon says "We cannot authenticate your phone at this time". I asked for an acivation key or Akey and they were like, what's that? or no we don't do that. Then I asked for a tier 2 rep and they said we are the highest technical support. LOL first one to pickup the line was the highest? Bull****. I work for several call centers and I know when a tech talks bull****, I been on that side with the ID10T jokes. I waited a few hours to get a different shift. I was lucky and the first guy that answered fixed my activation but hey missed my data, so I had to call again to get that fixed. I love Verizon as a carrier and this struggle with the techsupport has'nt changed my mind.
