FYI: I also get the same Error message as above when trying to save the options in s2u2...

Did I screw something up, or just forget something?

I am rereading the posts in this thread, so if this has already been answered, ignore this. I may have missed something along the way w/ 9 pages of useful information.

Some ohers have reported issues but have been able to extract with 7-zip, which is what i used to zip the files.

Also, I actually like the VZNavigator. I had installed it on my SD card prior to the flash, as well as a backup of the CAB file for it. Now, the Certificate is older than the install date (if that even matters). When trying to run it, I get an error saying:

***"The files 'VZ Navigator' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of it's components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."***

And I have tried reinstalling it a couple times after removing, & soft boots. Also with hard boots after removing. No Joy. Any ideas on how to get it to work? or is this loss a sacrifice for having countless other benefits of your ROM?

I have not used VZ Navigator, because it isn't free, so I am not sure why it doesn't work. I have always received an error when I changed the settings in S2U2 but have found that if I perform a soft reset after the changes they stick. I think this is an issue with S2U2 on the 6800.

Here's the fix. My S2U2 work fine now, without the Error message. Released yesterday. ***Remove current version of S2U2 prior to installation*** I loaded the QVGA Version.

Looking for something to be able to use Bluegrass Cellular Service -- Any ideas? We have a local guy at Rat Shack that is willing to work with people on phone from other carriers -- I really don't know if any difference for programming the phone.

Also- How do I back up my current service to but my phone info back on CDME myself?

I use dashwire.com and I like it. There are other PIMs around that you can use for local backup on your PC.

Okay, so switching back to the MR1 update got me my VZ Nav back. I was able to throw in alot of CABs to get me close to what I wanted. Except I have "Insufficient Permisions" to modify my Comm Manger and use the RegEdit....I think I will be looking at a couple of different options now, Reverting once more to GAMed's ROM again is apparently going to be one of them. Now I am off to visit the GPS thread and see if I can learn to like a different Nav program....

***EDIT TO ADD:

Check out this site for your Reg Edits. http://www.verizonxv6800.net/Forum/t...s/Default.aspx
I am back on GaMedics ROM (My back up for my screw ups since I have mastered the SD method now!). Those RegEdits are great! The only one I would refrain from using is the Today Item Lock/Unlock option....unless you want your Today Screen with nothing but a back ground. I am having issue with option 6 on that list at the link (Speeding up the xv6800), because I cannot get PBH RegEdit to run, all other mods I did with the dotFred RegEditor with ease. Just thought I'd pass the info along as I am finding it out. This is a very 'friendly' ROM, once I get everything the way I want it, I will post a screen shot if it differs drastically from GaMedics', but it will all be with his ROM.

MR1/MR2 fix for aGPS with VZ Navigator (Verizon)

FYI, I came up with a way to get VZ Nav and still have an unlocked phone.

My issue now, is that while attempting to emulate some of the visual and functional aspects of the GaMedic ROM here, I am having issue loccating the dotFred RegEditor and the keyboard layout.

Thought I would mention that there is a way to be unlocked and run VZ Navigator, and that the MR2 Update came out about 6 AM this morning...I just happened to be up toying with Dorthy (my phone some how ended up with a nick name during all of this). Again, Thanks Ga. You do have a great ROM here, I just wanted to have the Nav with it.
