Midget_1990 V0.1.1 ALPHA

Hi guys, I wasn't intending to release this until I had all the bugs worked out, but seeing as i wont be able to do much for a while I borrowed a PC (via RDP) and compiled what i have so far...
just a bit of a disclaimer:
THIS ROM IS NOT A FULLY WORKING ROM, THERE ARE TWO MAJOR BUGS (SEE BELOW) AND AN UNKNOWN NUMBER OF SMALLER ONES. THIS ROM IS TO BE USED AS A PREVIEW ONLY AND WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY IN NORMAL USE.
Now that's out the way...
Changelog:
NO MORE MEMORY LEAK! (Start at 30mb on SR, Down to 27mb and STAYS THERE!)
More Storage on HR (only 4mb used)
New versions of HTC software from thier latest rom (TRINITY)
No more Clearvue
Cache and Pagefile tweaks. The best combination I could achieve on my G4.
New WM6 Sounds - Implimented but there is a registry error somewhere so they dont work.
Some software built into the rom (will be more by release) - needs activating via .cab files
No more freeze on SR
Known Major Bugs:
Activesync will not connect - was working on this when PC died...
Cab's cannot install - built in software can't be activated, can't disable unsigned apps.
Known Minor Bugs:
Harware buttons are screwed up (forgetful when doing the registry)
Dont forget there is also a NEW BUILD in the works
If you think this is worth my effort then please
DOWNLOAD

Dear....we appreciate your job....but do you think this post will help in the DONATION requist

What build? 5.2.318?

yes sorry, it is based on my previous rom.

Wow, hope someone takes this and finishes it...
I'd love to have a rom without memory leak, now, I'm resetting everytime I need to do something what needs more memory...

Can someone with a G3 device (bootloader 0.xx or 1.xx) test this and confirm the mem leak fix works for g3 also? my g3 has a broken co-ax -.-

i can...but rapidshare said..... deleted by uploader

strange, i haven't deleted it, ill upload it again...
(30 mins to upload btw)

i cant do any more work on it atm because my pc is broken and due to family situation i have to give my wages to my parents (I am only 17 also). when i can afford to fix my pc i will release a proper version, i only posted this because i was happy about finally fixing the mem leak.
the final version will ahve teh same BT from Jwrighmcps' rom (if he agrees) and no video calling yet
they are all in there

In your signature is:
Midget v0.2 Crossbow (WM6 AKU 0.2.1 TEST) ROM
Can you say some details about that? Can you release that?
I think that all want's to have a brand new ROM, not another
modifications of old WM6 version (helmi, pv, darkforce, etc - all the same
base )

at the moment it is VERY buggy i would not even consider sending it to my beta testers like that.
when i fix my pc i can continue work on it...
also when i get time to clean up the mem leak fix rom (this one) it will be allmost like a new rom base

OK, I have donated you... Not much, but I am only poor student from poland
I hope that you will make good work with the future Universal WM6 roms

thanks, but you didn't have to... i was mainly aiming at the people with lot's of money who wouldnt miss it lol. anyway, it's up to you and thanks

I am surely not going to use the alpha rom as you have indicated it is full of bugs and in development stage. No hurry, look forward to your final. Hope you get your PC issue sorted at the earliest.
Good Luck.

I've upgraded, but I can't insttall any thing. No shortcut for MS Office

Has just flashed. The first impressions
1. It is the fastest variant wm6 from all other
2. Use of operative memory on full became possible.
Old versions took off at 5 mbytes of free memory
3. After softreset 27 mbyte free
4. Neither word nor exel it was revealed not
The resume... Fine rom. To tell the best stir the problems described by you

[New VoIP beta test, please test it] 1908...TNT...18508.0.7.0 [Public Beta version]

hi there
i have finally build a 1908 build for Wizard but with the true drivers and built as drivers not as files (and also not compressed), so high performance and stability. (thanks to misar for his great tool for the modules)
base rom:
1908 build 18508 AKU 0.7.0
it is like professional version + HTC Home on TNT Series + :
- VoIP (to test ADB100 issue)
- Pictures and videos don't show some of videos (Fixed)
- USSD issue on the last build (Fixed)
- Storage Card2 issue (Fixed by cancelling IE 2 SD, do it yourself)
- some edits on Windows Live 10.6.0031.2600 build
- some other fixes
- Java application removed, some have bugs with the latest version, i will build many cabs to choose whatever you want
- Task Manager removed (there are many choices like 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, or pBar)
i called this beta version just to manage the small issues if found.
((next releases will not contains version number e.g. 4.0, 5.0, ..., i will right the base rom before TNT and the build number after like 1437..TNT..17790, to make it easier ))

ive been flashing my fone for ages, this is the only one that has ever caused a problem... got a link to something more specific then?

Looking GOOD!!
This is looking great!, thanks. I had problems with TNT 5.0 with some installed apps coming up with an error, it's reported in that thread.
Also had problems synchronizing with Outlook 2007 and Outlook connector to my msn account, not with this one. I don't now if it was the TouchFlow or not, this one does not have the TouchFlow.
Just an FYI, there is a duplicate folder that contains Office Mobile folder and just NotePad in it. You have already in the Start/OfficeMobile that application.
There is a folder in Programs that says Shortcuts, are these instaled or if you click on it they will install.
This is looking very good, what ever you have done you are on the rigth track!
I'm not a poster here just a flash junkie.
Extramely good job, Wifi works, BT works has far as I can see It's a good one!
Thanks!

i know about office folder, i didn't remove it to be a real beta .
about shortcuts, this is for Advanced Config 1.0, nothing needs to install
thanks for your report, we have to use the drivers as modules to get the best performance.

Just flashing it....
1. just flashing it.... update follows...
2. Install gives no problems...
3. Tweaks and progams installed now registering.... so far FAST and no problems
4. All programs running and gprs connection OK
5. BT and Wifi working OK
6. Alt/Tap button setting gives a error after reselect runs OK, RunEveryday give error not starting...
Bugs/Errors
* Voip not working
* Alt/Tab reassign button

Any possibility of non RapidShare download? It could be slow, but it should be able to resume downloads. It is a bit too difficult to download big files from RapisShare over slow EDGE (it usually does not finish and RapidShare will not resume a broken download).
Mirek

any mirror links on this wonderful rom

Run Every Day
Just an FYI
The "Run Every Day" Program is not working correctly, Something about "Not signed" and/or "One of it's componets connot be found".
Never used this "Avanced Config Tool" before, nice program!
This is not a Blotted Rom, just the necesary apps for day to day usage, good choice!
Installed CVSD_for_WM6_v1.2_build_61226_1.cab and works great, no problems so far.
Still poking around this "Beta", compared to most of the WM6 roms here this is not a Beta this is a RTM.
Thanks,

VoIP - all screwed up?
I don't know what you have done in this ROM but I can no longer install my VoIP settings via the .cab file I have used on all other ROMs, I just get 'Installation of voip-settings.cab was unsuccessful'. Also Schaps VoIP config tool aborts with an error when you try and apply the settings
An unexpected error has occurred in SetupVoIP.exe.

[ROM] 28002 6.5.3 SPL3.7 Beta 08/12/09

Before you flash:
understand the risks, ideally have flashed roms before, have hspl and spl 3.7, maybe not ideal for people who use it daily as a first or only device due to possibilities of things not working straight out of the box.
New Download:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/tqivt9[/url]
A lot of changes addressed, I believe there may still be issues with the camera though
***Please note this is a test build(not Tested) do not complain if you brick your device, I welcome feedback good or bad but please respect the amount of time it takes me to cook these ROMS, if something doesnt work be patient as I have a full time job and a family that come first***

hey guys come on you don't want a wm6.5 rom with latest build??
hurryyyy

If there is no interest I will still build one for you 2 to test, and we can see where we go from there. Hopefully have something for you for tonight or tomorrow depending if I can sort out the problems with my kitchen

Hello I would be a tester but the problem is I don't have a original WM6.1 Dutch rom so I can't reverse to original if i want to.
I heard HTC wil come with an update when this happens it is possible for me to test roms till then i will stick to the original rom.
got experience of rom flashing with wizzard, Iphone and a MIO A701.
greetings
Oebele63

Maybe I Can be a backup tester
I plan to flash in the next few days, but I'm not experienced with this. But I have read up on the subject for some time now so I've read about the things which go wrong from time to time and I'm aware of the risks. Be glad to help out though, i'm sick of my beloved x7510 being so sluggish

I will be your tester. Hope your rom work well

Just flash your lastest build rom. Your Roms is not for X7510. The flash errors occurs

thats because you have flashed the clearly marked for x7500 not x7510, i will be cooking an x7510 build tnight or tomorrow and releasing to the people who expressed interest in beta testing, either you have misread my post here or not understood and i would advise you to wait for a release or your device

Heck yes I still want the ROM!! I'm always interested and once we work out the bugs, I'm sure everyone will be on board. I'm willing to help out wherever I can with this and if it means walking me through the kitchen and creating the .nbh then I'm game still.
Just my two cents...lol

will try and put a beta together when i get home from work probably be around 1am gmt, will pm download link to beta testers and update here and twitter when its up

Its done Beta1.01, links to download sent to selected beta testers, please do not publicly post download link until tested fully and I release a version for general release, feel free to post feedback here.

BETA testers, make sure you are on SPL3.5!!!!!
Try out as much as you can and then report back any issues etc, please try not to request things that are available via cab install as its not worth me installing specific software etc at the cost of module space in the native kernel. This rom should be very quick due to modifications to the space used in slot 0 of the native 6.1 memory kernel(0 modules). Also please be aware that some issues may be down to me using a leaked beta from MS and I may not be able to change some things.

6.5 Beta Issues:
1. The memory allocation sucks badly. Only 30mb left for program memory. This is a problem for running other programs or simutanious ones. There also appears to be a memory leak because the memory is going down slowly. A soft reset takes care of this for a little time.
2. Audible manager does not work. My personal feeling is take it out, never use it anyway.
3. Some of the icons do not render well. I would be more than happy to create a couple for you to insert in there place: Comm Manager, Clear Storage, Backlight and others. Not smooth on the edges.
4. G sensor works well, but again, not really a use for it. I would add it as an extra .cab to install for an additional cab package.
5. Real VGA - Another personal preference. Although I don't mind it being there.
6. VueFlo - Really? Wow, haven't seen that in a while and haven't tried it yet.
7. The Calculator wants to be in portrait mode at all times. Not a big issue, but I usually never use my device in portrait mode.
8. The ROM is fast, actually blazin fast for 6.5. I'm still trying to get use to the bottom bar but I do believe I'm stuck on 6.5 now. Very stable rom and runs without any hiccups.
9. SMS text received. When you click on notification and it opens the sms, it doesn't mark it as read. You have to click on it or scroll up onto it with the arrow keys for it to appear read and then no new messages waiting to be read.
10. The dialer....strange. I don't know if you have added a new one or if it is a component of the new 6.5. It does not render properly in portrait mode and the names/numbers on the left of the dial pad is very annoying. You cannot read the full name of the contact that comes up. The dial pad is not all the way on the screen. You can see the right numbers are a little off the screen.
11. Quickmenu - Don't understand why that was incorporated. The x doesn't close even though quickmenu is set up to close it.
12. While in the sms/text screen to read or create a text, when the phone rings, the caller id does not pop up. That is a bad one for me. I like to see who is calling before I answer...lol.
13. The Comm Manager isn't the normal one. I understand the quickness of it, but I prefer the original style. No issues with bluetooth or connection to the internet via media net.
I do believe that is it right now. I would literally call it a RC version. You did a great job, but like I said, the memory consumption is to much/great to be used heavily. I'll look forward to your next release.

Hopefully this release will be better have removed a lot of unused packages

Removed
3. Some of the icons do not render well. I would be more than happy to create a couple for you to insert in there place: Comm Manager, Clear Storage, Backlight and others. Not smooth on the edges.
I dont do graphics so any help would be appriciated
4. G sensor works well, but again, not really a use for it. I would add it as an extra .cab to install for an additional cab package.
This has been left in unless I get more requests for removal as I do not have a cab
5. Real VGA - Another personal preference. Although I don't mind it being there.
This has been left in unless I get more requests for removal as I do not have a cab
6. VueFlo - Really? Wow, haven't seen that in a while and haven't tried it yet.
This in the dump from the original rom, I will remove at some point but involves digging into OEM files, will do this when closer to full release
7. The Calculator wants to be in portrait mode at all times. Not a big issue, but I usually never use my device in portrait mode.
Think I removed this calc but not sure now
8. The ROM is fast, actually blazin fast for 6.5. I'm still trying to get use to the bottom bar but I do believe I'm stuck on 6.5 now. Very stable rom and runs without any hiccups.
I recmod a lot of modules meaning that memory slot0 has zero modules in leaving it free for just the device kernel
9. SMS text received. When you click on notification and it opens the sms, it doesn't mark it as read. You have to click on it or scroll up onto it with the arrow keys for it to appear read and then no new messages waiting to be read.
Maybe a feature of 6.5 **not addressed in this build**
10. The dialer....strange. I don't know if you have added a new one or if it is a component of the new 6.5. It does not render properly in portrait mode and the names/numbers on the left of the dial pad is very annoying. You cannot read the full name of the contact that comes up. The dial pad is not all the way on the screen. You can see the right numbers are a little off the screen.
**possibly due to the build having the bigger bottom taskbar, cant remember if I included advanced config, if I did disable the phone skin, if not search for advanced config and disable**
11. Quickmenu - Don't understand why that was incorporated. The x doesn't close even though quickmenu is set up to close it.
**Removed I think**
12. While in the sms/text screen to read or create a text, when the phone rings, the caller id does not pop up. That is a bad one for me. I like to see who is calling before I answer...lol.
**Not address yet, but may be fixed through other changes, please report back**
13. The Comm Manager isn't the normal one. I understand the quickness of it, but I prefer the original style. No issues with bluetooth or connection to the internet via media net.
**Removed, back to original**
I do believe that is it right now. I would literally call it a RC version. You did a great job, but like I said, the memory consumption is to much/great to be used heavily. I'll look forward to your next release.

Please note changes to feedback received

I appreciate the fixes and await the release for download and install. I did do some research and the 0409 and other res are an integral part of the new 6.5. I found this weird because of the consumption it takes up in windows, but what do you do. Let me know what size icons you need and I'll fix the ones up and shoot them over to you. If it comes down to it, I'll strip the original and replace it with a doctored up one.

Has anyone tried this rom yet?

This ROM and not tested but by what a discussed in DFT, this ROM v5 has the following problems on all devices .... but everything is a matter to prove you
Here the deficiencies found by me:
1 - When taking a picture with the camera with the flash on at night, the image is dark (like no flash), but if you turn off the flash photography is normal and this is devido the flash has a short duration.
2 - Activating the WI-FI sometimes fails and you have to disconnect and turn again to return to work without problems.
3 - Sometimes the xap file implementations fail, but this problem is sometimes .....
PS: Sorry for my bad English, Thanks

I just installed it and noticed two things right off the bat. This doesn't include the latest updates from Verizon. The phone still prompts you to update everytime you sync with Zune. Also, internet sharing doesn't appear to work. Everytime I try to enable it, it gives me an error. It worked in v3 and in ansars rom for me.

Happens with Ansars rom too. That one is on 8773 (Tango). The update is for HTC drivers that these roms dont/cant have. I have not found a way around it besides every time I connect to Zune, I have to watch, then hit cancel.
The WI-FI is an issue too, WHen you enable it, it some times does not work, just shutting it off and turning it back on fixes it for me. Same with Internet sharing.
Seems like all the Custom roms for the Spark_W have that issue... I'm still on Ansars rom, it's working great over all, I have not found a reason to change.

same issue - I could not get Internet Sharing to work (mifi). It worked when I rolled back to earlier versions of this rom. Is there something I am missing to get it to work on tango build?

I think it's just botched in the Spark_W version of this rom. It wasn't an intermittent issue when I tested it, it would never work despite reboots, wifi state, etc. If you need internet sharing, try one of the other Spark_W roms.

I haven't looked into the problem too much, but if he used Verizon's new wifi driver but just added the internet sharing policy (because I tired to do that too in my own rom testing), it fails.
Now, I was looking at taking a wifi driver from another phone/carrier setup that has the fixed driver and internet sharing, but I haven't been able to find a stock rom of any HTC WP7 that has internet sharing enabled.
I mean, I was able to drop a wifi driver into the phone from the HTC Titian and GSM Spark, and the Spark_W was able to use both drivers, so I think the wifi driver could be fulled from a different phone to make Internet Sharing work with fixed MAC address issue.... I just need to find a driver that is already working and don't have fast enough internet to go around footballs rom threads to find one.
I'll have another Spark_W soon, after I repair it, I'll finally have a phone to test crap on without taking my primary Spark_W down (this is one reason you haven't heard/seen be doing much lately.. its just a pain to take my phone down!).
If I were to figure out a fixed wifi issue, I was planning on sharing it with all rom devs because this issue is probably not just on Spark_W.

Is there an alternate download link? FileFactory claims this file isn't available for download.

Your Zune Pass should also work on your phone. Mine does..
Cheers..

Rom is working great, however I have one questions.
how come when I unlock the phone, its always at what I was doing last? I would prefer it to just be on the home tile screen, at the top. If I lock while scrolled to the bottom, its still down there when unlocked.

it does work on my phone... just I use it on my ZHD, and my wife and daughter have there ZHDs on it too so I cant add my phone as the 3device limit (im on the old ZunePass plan so I can have our three computers on it as well) I prefer it on the ZuneHD as I have docks everywhere, and in my cars the premium car kits going to the AUX, and it sounds good. I don't like leaving my phone laying around jamin tunes.

Question, great rom but for some reason, downloading xaps in IE will download but it will not do anything when I touch it, it used to install it. Any idea on how to fix it ?????

[ROM SPARK_W][13-OCT-2012] XevRev Tango & 7.8 (based on Dynamics7 1.21) Beta 1a

This rom was last updated on: [13-Oct-2012]
This post was last updated on : [13-Oct-2012]
This rom is ONLY for Spark_W, or the HTC Trophy 7 on Verizon Wireless. If your Trophy is for ANY other carrier or unbranded, this rom WILL NOT WORK on your device!
This rom requires DFT HSPL for First Generation Devices V3 to be installed. Please read this HOWTO for more information.
I am happy to announce the official testing phase of XevRev for Spark_W. XevRev is based on Dynamics7 1.21 for HTC Titan by ultrashot. This is not a straight port of Dynamics7, and it features a few slight changes to allow for better interaction with the Verzion OEM, and one significant upgrade over Dynamics7 1.21.
To read a full list of features, checkout ultrashot's thread for Dynamics 1.21 for HTC Titan!
The big features for Spark_W owners are as follows:
-FULLY PROGRAMMABLE! FACTORY RESET IS mostly SAFE TO PERFORM ON PHONE! For safety's sake until I complete some more of my own testing, do not program the phone until a few mins after you reach the tile screen. Default programing at first boot is currently disabled.
-ultrashot's Unlock V3, with newer version of Xap Deployer.
-Based on Verizon rom, not ported from Spark Euro.
Key differences between Dynamics7 vs XevRev:
-Xap Deployer has been updated to v1.1-upd1, this allows the rom to be fully programmed with full unlock. This includes if you factory reset! You do not need to program with a stock rom anymore! YOU SHOULD THANK (and donate as well!) ULTRASHOT FOR HIS HELP AND INPUT FOR KILLING THIS PAIN IN THE BUTT BUG ONCE AND FOR ALL!
OEM packages are still Verizon, minus bloat like Netflix, Photo Enhancer, and Slacker Radio.
Nokia theme as been removed, since it overwrote the Verizon OEM theme. I might add it back in before V1, but for now its gone and it won't be the default option if I do add it back in. Verizon's OEM packages are highly integrated vs the standard Spark Euro packages.
Only US English will be available during testing. I will add back all packs that come with rom (plus request) after testing is completed. Do not request a rom language in this thread, please private message me and I'll make sure it ends up in the International version. I most likely will make an Asian version of this rom too. *edit 13-Oct-2012* I still need Japanese and Korean packages, please private message me if you know where I can obtain them.
Removed Russian mail.ru packages. These will be added into an international version after testing is completed/. *edit 13-Oct-2012* I have decided to leave it permanently out since no one is complaining it isn't there.
[*]Wireless-N support is disabled like it is by default. Having it enabled was making my own wireless network go completely crazy, and it didn't appear to increase the connection speed of the phone.
Notes about incomplete and complete features in XevRev Beta 1:
Bazaar for WP7 will be added. I think its a handy thing to have pre-installed.
Reinstaller will be added, but it isn't a priority feature.
WP7 Root Tools will be added.
Last.fm will be added, but it isn't a priority feature.
SYS 8773 Tango booting is a priority for a V1 of the rom, but for now it has 8107 Mango.
SYS 8835 7.8 available.
Most drivers are Tango v1, but you can still run Zune update to get newest radio and finish driver upgrade. Official Verizon tethering and fixes the long standing bug of random mac addresses.
The tethering network unlock by JerryJiang is not included because I do not know what values it changes. Non-Verizon network users will still need to apply it to enable tethering. I plan to implement this into my rom soon.
Radio is included in rom, and it is forced to Mango v3's radio. I am doing this to insure that CMAS support remains intact, but also because there is no official Tango rom from Verzion online yet to create a flash-able radio from. If you want Tango v1 radio (recommended by many users), simply run Zune update to get newest HTC driver.
*note about Internet Sharing PLEASE READ*[Updated 1-OCT-2012]
If you are a Verizon subscriber and have a metered data plan.... you're good to go.
ALL VERIZON USERS WITHOUT OFFICIAL TETHERING PLAN MUST DO THE FOLLOWING!!
After programming the phone via *228, dial ##PST# on the dial pad. After service tools install/load, select PST=>edit=>type in unlock code: 000000, Select M.IP Default Profile, select DUN NAI, change value to from ##########@dun.vzw3g.com to ##########@vzw3g.com (the # signs represent your phone number that should remain!) and select ok, select save and reboot phone.
If you are using an unlocked SIM card to run on another carrier, go here and run the tethering unlock xap by JerryJiang.
Special Thanks!
I special thanks to all those who made this rom possible. feropont, ultrashot and hd2owner, you all rock! Without all of your hard work and efforts, none of this rom would be possible! A shout out to my buddy NuAngel once again, for getting me into rom cooking a few years back!

I'd like to thank tonbonz for pointing out that you can run the Zune update, and it will install the newest radio to the phone (along with the last two missing packages, HTC_NKDrivers and OEM_8x50_NK_SPARK_W). It's odd, because previous to updating the XIP almost all of the new drivers save those two, I wasn't able to install the HTC update (and the older drivers always flashed on roms like DFT and ansars until these newest drivers).
Perhaps one of the drivers doesn't like updating, and since its already updated, the update process skips it and moves on? I wonder if its the WIRELESS driver.... I could dig in and find out, but really... why should anyone care?! lol Now you can have full unlock, programming, and the newest radio too! WOOHOO!

Thanks for the share.. works great.

im try this rom. please add the turkish language

You installed RSPL and didn't flash HSPL? Interesting... but the idea of my rom is so that you don't need to flash a new one all the time. I'm going to explode an old method of SPL downgrade for our phones (this old old OLD rom that ansar posted ages ago) and see if HSPL is possible using that. If so, we won't need to flash our phones.
I think the update-able part may be caused by the fact that I used the Verizon Wireless driver instead of the Spark GSM driver like in DFT and ansar roms. Even though a kitchen like OSBuilder will swap the wireless driver when I OEM cab install, I don't think Windows Phone will if the carrier ID's don't match. I'm going to do some testing by back porting the WIRELESS drivers and see if that is why the OEM updates are not installing in other roms. It's also possible that another package was at fault because during my testing, until I mostly ported the drivers to the newest ones, the OEM cab update was failing on my rom too.
Frankly, I wouldn't have known the oem cabs were flashing if it wasn't for tonbonz earlier post in the general forum, because I had sort of given up on it, assuming that HTC or Microsoft has implemented some kind of change that didn't allow the updates to succeed. Rom's like DFT's had worked for updating in their pre-release phase, but it would remove internet sharing because the policies for internet sharing were contained in the WIRELESS package. Dynamics7 by ultrashot solved this by using a different package with just the internet sharing policies, that way they would remain even if the WIRELESS package was updated.
The problem came when Verizon changed their WIRELESS driver to be different from the default HTC one found on Spark GSM. Even if you implemented the polices with the Verizon driver, you still couldn't start the hotspot service up, it would produce an error. I tired all kinds of lamo hex editing tricks to see if I could enabled, but couldn't (and I assumed other rom cooks working on Spark_W did as well). We're really fortunate that Verizon decided to boost support for Windows Phone and allow for tethering out of box, as we now have a spiffy updated WIRELESS driver with no stupid random mac address bug.
Spark GSM rom cooks may be able to port the Verizon Wireless driver, and then use JerryJiang's fix to allow the hotspot driver to work on their phone. However, this might keep them from using OEM update as well. Perhaps exploring this HOTSPOT feature (as it doesn't seem to be configured in the registery) that JerryJiang found it what will eventually produce a method to fully policy unlock tethering on Spark GSM and allow a different package to keep that hot spot unlock in place, while allowing OEM.cabs to update all the drivers on the phone?
I'm going to work on implementing JerryJiang's patch into XevRev as a package (not his xap) this weekend (I hope). He sent me his source code and I am going to do some digging to see what I can find.

Yeah, i didn't install HSPL . . i wanted the bootloader to get updated through Zune . . after all, i now have what i wanted all along - an unlocked phone which allows me to install a few useful aps which are not available on the Microsoft Marketplace and full access to all the folders, internet sharing and Zune updates. Why should i want to install another custom ROM ever again? (Not that we are going to see many more updates for Windows 7.5 anyway!)
My only regret is that i wasn't able to keep my saved messages. If i try to use my save store.vol and pimindex.vol, my contacts list gets messed up. Never mind, small sacrifice.
Thanks again . .

Yeah but... you.... nevermind.
I'm sure we're going to see 7.8 before end of life on this phone.. but Windows Phone 8 will be a completely different ball game.
I was thinking of the irony.. I couldn't release a custom rom until after we got the official tethering update... and the only reason I wanted HSPL on our phones was to have tethering.... derp. lol

you're forgetting, internet sharing still doesn't work out-of-the-box on the official rom, it requires Jerry Jiang's unlocker . . . so your custom rom is fully relevant

No, Internet sharing does work just fine... if you have Verizon service. If you are using a sim card to use a different provider, then that is a different story.
I'm not entirely sure that Verizon locked it down with the intention of not allowing the phone to use Internet Service on different providers (I mean, it wouldn't even work internationally either with its setup), but they locked it down simply to make DAMN sure that the people who are using it, are being monitored and metered by them.
Thankfully unlimited data users have a simple fix for it, as listed in my original post... although I'm not sure if its fully effective (there is a NAI setting in the original tethering setup as well that points to dun.blahblah...).

That's strange, do you have unlimited data or a tier plan? If you have a data cap, it should work with no mods. If you have unlimited data, you need to follow the instructions in my opening post, but you said you already did that.
And are you really using a Spark rom? This is a Spark_W rom. O-o;

Hmmm interesting, I like the idea of your rom, more like stock, but unlocked, and can get zune updates.
I'm currently use SolvZ's rom, and im really happy with it. I just got done posting in his thread about it. Funny because the only reason I want a ROM anymore is for customer colors. I don't even like the "no dehydrate" thing, it does weird things with my location when doing bing searches, it keep remembering the last location I was in and not clearing it and searching my current
When you get final out, I may give it a run. I have a upgrade waiting, so as soon as WP8 hits Verizon's stores bye bye good ol Trophy.

I was to be able to update so it stops bothering me. Plus my wifes bone stock Trophy seems to be doing very well with the latest drivers that came with her official Tango+HTC updates. ohhh ohhh ohh 22%
Well, G2G, ill be spending the next 30 mins configing my phone lol

The ROM Im using now is DFT Freedom Spark_W V1 for Verizon. Internet sharing works.
Nice ROM you have here by the way. Id really stick with it, but I really need Internet sharing. Maybe ill try it again down the road since I think ill be stuck with my Trophy a little while longer. Not eligible for an update until early 2013.

I somehow screwed up my programming again I did a factory reset because I screwed up the contact list trying to restore my SMSes. I waited a few minutes after the reset to do the *228 programming as the initial post says, and although the programming said it was completed successfully and the 3G icon came up, none of my calls are completing. I get a few rings then the Verizon lady saying there was a problem completing my call.
Any ideas on how I can fix this almighty Xev? Last time I had to reactivate my old smartphone and then redo this one, but hopefully I don't have to go through that again?
Btw, I love the ROM. The right blend of stock and cool homebrew apps

Try programming one more time and reboot.. if that fails, switch to another compatible phone on the plan and switch right back. I had this issue crop up once, but it was odd because I didn't need to program the phone a 2nd time for it to start working ;. (Meaning, I switched the phone off the plan, and then put it right back on it)
If you program the phone from scratch again, try typing ##PST#, let service tools load up, THEN program via *228. I tired doing it both ways, during my testing with programming, but only had that issue crop up once (so I thought it was isolated to just me that one time.. hence me asking people to wait a few mins before programming). Did you try to program during initial setup (not sure if that option reset itself after after the new drivers install.. I haven't had time to check), or after the main screen came up? (sounds to me like you waited.. but I'm just waking up... urgh OT at work is killing me..)
