I'm sorry but this rom is terrible.Its
extremly slow, unresponsive and buggy. The file explorer always hangs for like 5 minutes and then maybe my files will show up,web pages will load but not show the whole page. The gps takes for every to find my location or will say could not comm with gps driver or what ever (never happened before). The dialer freezes. It doenst remember the software keyboard after a reboot and doesnt show the word compltion no matter what setting I try or chabge. No built in youtube support or java program. It misses
key strokes.The radio is terrible also. Im sure theres more carp messed up about rom that I havent found out. Im going back to
Alex rom which is a 1000 times better the this piece of crap was.
Before you get slammed by senior members, I would copy your post and put it in the appropriate thread. All your going to get for answers in this thread is to move it and read the wiki...

well then....you're always welcome to voice your feelings on things that keep you up at night. i sure hope your donation to the chef in question was equally as fierce as your critisim.
also...keep in mind. if you want something done right you have to do it yourself. so i'll be looking forward to your thriving roms followed but their own raving reviews.

LOL, nice first post. Try to say that to a hundred people that uses this rom and are satisfied with it. I am sure u have done something wrong while u were flashing(inappropriate spl, not hardreset after flash, ...).
Well I'm so sure that with this as your first post, you've done all your homework re: ROM flashing, and EVERYTHING you did on your end was precisely what you were supposed to do and in the right order...nevermind the fact that there is actually a thread already for this forum...nevermind the fact that Dutty did acknowledge some issues in this ROM (which still runs quite well when properly set up) but also advised everyone that there wouldn't be a follow-up as he's going over to the diamond 'realm'...
I know we see these posts daily/hourly it seems, but at this hour for me it just got me crunk about snapping back...my bad, but starwars...you sir, are an idiot...
MOD please delete this drunk guys thread please
mods please close this pathetic thread
I'm surprised that this thread hasn't been closed...

Since this is your 1st post maybe you should read the rules of posting.
You have no idea what you are talking about because the problems are specific to you and only you. You're a complete idiot with no idea about Windows Mobile device.
Might I make a suggestion to you.
Go to www.ebay.com & put your Kaiser up for auction.
Buy yourself a pink razor.
Never come to XDA again.
Word of advice. Next time...just keep your mouth shut! I will not tolerate people creating new threads to simply bash a Chef who dedicates his time to cooking.
Any questions.

While the graphics are really nice, this weather app is lamer than lame, particularly since the "More Details Online" link goes to a dead URL at Accuweather! And if you try that URL on a desktop PC, it is verified as bad...
Makes me feel like a fool when a friend who has an iPhone checks it out and sees the dead link. Ohh, impressive... especially when they have the awesome Weather Channel app that plays video and everything...
Anyone know how to tweak that URL in the XML file in Manila?
.
Mine does the same thing.. thats pretty bad they let it go out like that..
Mine does the dame thing too but when I use a difernet city such as Moscow it works fine. Seems like only the Northamerica citys are a dead link
Someone must know what file can be edited for that! I'd imagine the URL just needs tweaking - it's a standard URL which is plugging in the selected city in to the path...
.
there's info about this in the diamond or the touch pro sections, or probably in more places. I forget if it's a file or a reg entry.
Thanks! I'll get to looking! Eager to fix that!

Post the fix I can't find it and its driving me nuts
Hardy har! I can't find a fix that relates to what this thread is about, to save my life! I always get a kick out of people lambasting first-time posters when they ask a question and someone will say "did you search?" because that is easier said than done, particularly in enormous forums such as this!
I tried searching for "More details Online" and it said it was going to ignore the word "More" because it was too common. So searching for "Details" and "Online" brought up threads that had nothing to do with what I wanted, even when narrowing down the search to just the Diamond or the Touch Pro forums. And if I searched for "weather" (and a combination of options such as "issue" "online" etc), I came upon several threads where people were discussing the Weather Tab not updating period (no info whatsoever), but thus far I have not found one post that had to do with the issue of tapping on "More Details Online" and having it take the user to a dead AccuWeather page.
I will keep looking, but it's frustrating - I simply can't believe this is not easily found as seeing a current "What the heck?" type of thread related to the TP2 and the non-functional link! Not here or at PPCG or several other forums I have checked!
The search continues...
A quick look through the registry couldn't find anything. I think I will just forget about it. We will be getting some new roms soon.
Yeah, by the time I find a solution, I'll have 6.5 on this thing and might not even be using TF3D!
Sometimes, refreshing the page in the browser will "fix" the problem and allow the page to be displayed ... not a great fix, I know ...
Holy COW! Levman, you must have the magic touch, because I went to try that, and I tapped on More Details Online>>> and for the first time ever, the AccuWeather page worked!
I didn't even have to hit refresh! I just launched Opera and went to the page!!!
Was definitely something on AccuWeather's end...

Don't get too excited ... that exact same thing happened to me the first time I set out to try this trick (which, in the interest of full disclosure, I'll admit that I learned by posting a question on a forum that Sprint manages). The second time I clicked on "more details online", it was back to the old way and I did have to refresh. I was as surprised as you the first time, when it worked properly without me having to hit refresh.
I have a friend who likes to joke about keeping a bucket of water next to his computer whenever it misbehaves, as a threat ... maybe this had the same effect
I suspect you are right that this is a problem on AccuWeather's end ...
Hmm.... mine works every time for each of the three cities I have selected. So, maybe it is a city specific problem.

I know what you posted above about just "search". I know I read this for my diamond with a definitive way to edit the weather link. I just never bookmarked it.
I just got my TP2 on verizon tonight, but haven't tried that yet. If I do find that it doesn't work, I'll be sure to post up!
I'm fighting the dreaded wifi + active sync not working, ugh. I'm trying to vpn in and sync to my work computer. wifi dies just as soon as I connect any winmo. Reports say AS 6.5 beta works... oh, other computer just booted, gotta run and play!
I just tried, and I still receive the "Error in/M Application" error. I tried the "reloading" trick, with no success. I did not try the bucket of water.

Did you do the setup when you started the phone?
I went back and changed my settings, it didn't say the city in (was it contacts or dialer?), it just said CDT, so I changed it to my city.
Then I ONLY tried right now, went right to accuweather.
----------------
So if you rely on the start/activation screen, you might have to change it, ugh, sorry, can't remember.
Again, this is a VZ phone!

I did go through the setup when I first turned on the phone. I also installed the conflipper north america weather database, as my city was not native to the phone.
I just looked for different settings in the contacts area, etc., and couldn't find anything set incorrectly. I then deleted my city, and added it back in, but still received that error, even after refreshing.
If this turns out to be the biggest problem with this phone, I can live with it!
I would like a weather app, though, that can integrate with TF3D, and also show more than the weather icons. As I've posted elsewhere, I want the forecast, in words.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Follow Screen Shots, Works like a Charm!
Hope this Helps,
the phone is working fine
except instead of showing the Name of my cell phone provider, it only shows the tower ID number.
I was supposed to see:
Wind (Home)
or
Wind (Away)
they show up properly on my SGS and XT720
Ironically, with the SNS, i did not even have to configure the APN settings, it automatically got both the MMS and Internet APN settings.
kinda funny if you ask me, it knows the Wind internet and multimedia settings but can't report the tower names
if i use the Wind (Away) towers i get charged roaming
so ideally i'd like to only use Wind (Home) similar to Tmobile Zones towers for my 3G and voice, to not see a huge bill at the end of the month
This thread on Howard Forums might interest you if you haven't found it already. Seems like the difference is that Wind sends out number instead of name if I read it correctly.
You might be able to edit the eri.xml file to deal with this, as instructed in this thread on xda for AOSP roms.
As far as CSC goes, I don't think the NS uses that. I've never seen it mentioned in discussions about other devices besides the Galaxy S line of phones using Samsung ROMs.
P.S. - be careful messing with the frameworks apk. I made a bad edit to the one on my i9000 once and it wouldn't boot. Easy enough to fix by replacing with a good copy, though.
Thanks for those 2 links
I'll check them out.
That's very helpful, if it's a simple edit of the file
I've been busy jumping between the 3 forum, and fixing the SGS i9000m to work properly, which i just got back yesterday, and it pretty much died on me right away after upgrading to JL2 and restoring only the backup for user app+user app settings (no system app/data restored)
Heh I've been wondering about this too... but seeing "302490" instead of "Wind (Home)" doesn't really bother me that much... I'll know if it's Wind Away when the number is different lol.

Yeah, that's what some in the Howard Forums say; as long as they know they're not roaming. When you're on Wind Away, does the "roaming" indicator show? The framework shows there's a flag for it.
I would be with Allgamer myself; I'd like the proper carrier name to show.
well New Year eve is here
and the "long weekend" is starting soon
if i have time after the parties and stuff to work on the quick fix, i'll upload the file to share for the rest of the XDAers on Wind Mobile
There's an easy fix for that.
On the dialing screen, dial *#*#4636#*#*
Phone information->choose WCDMA only (Wind runs on 3G only).

Assuming it actually works...
Looking forward to hearing the results, even though the issue doesn't affect me.
i spend time trying a few this morning and nothing....
because there is only 1 SPACE !!!!! available to Hex Edit a letter into the xml file
i tried the other method they mentioned further down into the topic, and it was not compatible
good thing i was flashing my phone a few times.
running TW ROM right now.
so in the end, it is Do able, but we only get 1 letter out of it.... which IMO is worse than seeing the full row of numbers 302490

Wow, the picture says you're moving at 36 mph 750 meters UNDER sea level: either you live inside a submarine, or MTK GPS is pretty unreliable isn't it?:laugh:
Btw, I tried the procedure on a firend's phone and it worked almost good, it didn't fix at all before but now even if it fixes, loses GPS signal very often, requiring 3 to 15 minutes to have GPS back!
I also tried Engineer functions with test and reset operations, but GPS is always unreliable (1 hour trrip it lost GPS for more than half an hour, making navigation imposssible!)
I think the GPS hardware is really unstable and/or buggy. Any idea?
Yeah the hardware is really crap
And i was undersea and was sleeping there...

What's the point of having fast lock when precision suck?

Bumping accuracy threshold from zero to 3000 likely report hyper sonic speed way off sea level
My MTK Phone
Same frustrating GPS issues here.
Hi my MTK phone from china has a file under something like gps-profiles-config. should I delete this and replace it with yours? or do i just paste it along with that one?
Engineer code MKT6577 phone
Hi I found a code for the engineer mode.
Here you can also change the settings for the GPS and test it.
Looks like my GPS is not working because it doesn't show any satelites.
The code is *#*#3646633#*#*
You have to use the phone dialer.
Hope this wil help to find a sollution for the GPS problem.

Hi guys
I was having issues and tried multiple solutions including the one posted here in this forum. I believe it helped me the most, because it resurrected a non working GPS. However it was still taking 3-5 minutes to get a lock. I came across the following video post and after applying it the lock time is sub one minute... which is great. I thought I'd share it here
Basically the answer is to delete/ rename the mtkgps.dat file from data/misc and then recreate it with the mobile uncle tools .apk which can be got from the play store.
The youtube video makes it easy.

Of course your phone needs to be rooted as well. I can take no responsibility for what happens if you try it. But it's worked for me.
Also as said before, This only worked in conjunction with the fix discussed here in this forum.
Hi,
I tried to use your solution in the video, my phone did not open the gps fix app but in the end I found a gps signal thx!

€: Now I have the problem that I have to do all the steps above every time when I want to use GPS...can you please help me to fix this problem?
The Real GPS Fix
To all members with GPS not getting a fix on the satellites with the V1277 (6577) in a reasonable time I have the answer and it does not require anything but a screw driver and cleaning fluid.
No rooting is required or messing about with the gps config.
Firstly remove the back cover.
There are 4 screws holding the housing remove them and unclip the rear housing .
Take anti static precautions i.e ground yourself.
Use alcohol or another circuit board cleaner and clean all the contacts on both the main body of the phone and housing, Job done.
Before I did this I could not even get a fix on the gps satellites outside , I can get a fix in the living room.
I think the problem lies with the production environment of these phone not being as clean as the major manufacturers dirt and oxides in the air, I use to work as a debug engineer on mobile phones at Motorola, well at least its came in handy.
Probably a fix for most china based phones
This method does not work on my device. I start wondering if there a gps antenna in my phone, maybe they cut cost and remove the antenna :laugh:
I've been having some weird things going on with my phone. I don't know if it is me just being paranoid or if someone is really controlling and spying on my phone. Two days ago I started running DroidSheepGuard bc I was having issues mapping the IP addresses on my network. Using Fing was only showing me half of the IPs, something just wasnt right. I had droidsheepguard alert me 4 times in the past 2 days so I started running a logcat and was wondering if some of the things I have been seeing is normal or not.

What are the best measures to take to ensure I am safe? Thank you in advance, I may just be really paranoid but I'd like to be sure.

I saw two things that convince me you are being hacked from Ork. The cracked screen acts as a long range interstellar antenna powered by dirty fingernails.
What is Ork? And dirty fingernails? Are you being sarcastic? Do you really see anything? I've had a lot of weird stuff goin on and I don't know what it is. Even typing this message is very difficult when it shouldn't be. I don't ask for much help but I could really use some advice
@Ramer, Out of everyone on here your one of the most helpful people I've came across, please help me solve this. I have had really strange things happen. This isn't just happening on my s5, I also have a stupid iphone, and my brand new laptop that has issues. The other day I flashed a new rom (4x) and when it booted up I didnt sync my email or any account, I didnt connect to wifi, I immediately ran the catlog app which I had exported the apk so I could quickly instal it without google play. I noticed something strange and powered it down, as its in the close out boot animation I get a call on my iphone from my droid. Keep in mind I don't have a single number in my contact list, so unless it randomly just called the exact number for my iphone which I don't see as possible (out of every number in the world to call on accident, the one sitting right next to me?) something is going on. I have disabled wifi, 3g and mobile data, it STILL does strange stuff. I have removed system apps that come back, I've even battled with this thing while removing that "Ant" app, it put it right back when I uninstalled it. I've had this thing slow down my text messages and right before I click the next key to spell the word out, I can see a symbol pop up (like a transparent symbol behind the key I am trying to hit) . I get pop up messeges that tell me I am roaming when I'm at my house all the time, I try not to push anything and restart my phone but they keep coming...Awhile ago this happened and I flashed the firmware my phone came with, I think it was 4.4.2, then I manually flashed the 5.0 lp and rooted, still there. I have replaced my router twice, got any old device off my network, and got a new laptop...My iphone does similar stuff, theres way more background data that runs than foreground data, my iphone says its location is coming from Atlanta, I'm in NC.

I have replaced my router twice, got any old device off my network, and got a new laptop...My iphone does similar stuff, theres way more background data that runs than foreground data, my iphone says its location is coming from Atlanta, I'm in NC.

I'm sorry, I don't have a clue. I was being a bit of a smart *** earlier, it's was hard to resist. Honestly, the only solution would be a complete wipe including internal and external SD. I don't think anyone will have a solution, which is why your posts went unanswered.
I think you are too paranoid. I think if you are that concerned, you should run unrooted stock. I can't answer all your questions, but i have had uninstalled programs install on reboot on a deodex rom. I have no idea why this happens but I'm not worried. I sometimes an roaming at home too. I figured it is because the signal isn't so good.
