can i install the new Sprint ROM , and load back the regular stock system ROM, and NOT use any of the NUE or DCD custom roms?

No, the original stock ROM will not work with the new radio.

You may need to try it on another PC. Does it give any kind of error message when it crashes?

You might want to check the event viewer on your PC to see if any errors were entered into the log. Just type eventvwr at a command prompt.

Ok I did that from another pc. I took the pda back to my this pc and tried to flash the nu2 rom onto it. Now it wont get out of boot loader. Am I missing something here?

Ok I managed to flash to nu2's 5058 pre fix. Here are my two questions. How can I put mms back on the phone and also now it says it cannot authenticate my phone so no text messages can be sent out or received along with calls cannot be sent out or received. What do I do now?

Advice requested:
i really love my phone the way i have it set up now. i've been customizing it for weeks, and it works just great.. emails, mms, progs, regedits, etc...

I've been doing a ton of reading and seems folks still have a myriad of issues with the DCD 3.0.1 ROM, and 2.3.2 may be a little more stable..
but i'm not a fan of having any issues whatsoever, so i just can't stop thinking to myself if a flash would even be worth it to me..
my main goal is just to enable GPS.. thats it. but i don't know if i'd be happy with a working GPS and a not-working 'other stuff', like so many people are posting about..

anyone have an opinion on a 'almost' stock looking new (verizon) rom, that would work with the new sprint radio ? i read so much about DCD and NUE, but if there are any others, they are buried and i've missed them..
i have OCD and i know i'd just be pulling my hair out over the next several weeks trying to hammer out all the little issues if i went with the 3.0.1 ROM... versus right now - with zero issues, but no GPS ](*,)

Thanks guys,

I followed these instructions and updated my phone to DCD.

I had to call vzw to get them to reauthenticate my phone but seems to work now

So after reading through many threads on upgrading the ROM, I did it using this one. I successfully got olipro-2.4.0 installed, then the Sprint ROM, then dcd 3.0.1.

The phone boots up just fine, and I'm dumped into WM6.1 welcome screen. A voicemail icon popped up, so I tried to call but I got the verizon recording saying that they are "unable to authenticate" my phone.

Does this mean I need to call and get a new A-key? Or did I miss a step? I re-entered the MDN and MSID, but still nothing.
Should I try *228 options 1 or 2?

Thanks!

EDIT: also, when I try to send a text to myself through vzw's website, it gives a "message undeliverable" message on the website.
EDIT2: so I tried *228 option 1 and now Verizon Wireless shows up as the carrier on the start screen, but still can't call out. Guess I'll call to get a new akey

UPDATE: called TS, fixed. I don't know what they did, but I didn't have to enter an A-key, just rebooted the phone and did *228 option 1 after they did some stuff on their side?

I did the same thing as you above, they told me they took it off the network and readded it? the first person I spoke to said I needed a new a-key, I said whats that? He said he needed to transfer me to data group.

Glad you got it working

Hey guys Im a noob and im having a bit of problems

Im stuck in the bootloader screen

TITA100 MFG
SPL-2.40 Olipro
CPLD-9

My comp has windows vista premium so instead of activesync i have windows device center 6.1 I have unclicked allow USB connections
but i think my comp doesnt recognize that they the phone is connected at all

exitbl.exe doesn't work keeps telling me
cannot open USB port
Please make sure that USB connection in Activesync is disabled

Also make sure that your USB cable is properly connected
