Hi all!

I've been away for a while as once I got a stable phone using this ROM, I figured why spend the time to keep changing things around?

Anyways, I checked in to see if someone had answered a thread I started and saw that there's a new official ROM out from Verizon/Samsung, DF14.

Oh boy!! Something new to play with, but lack of practice this summer has got me confused here. Lioryte says it's only the modem that's been updated. When I looked for custom ROM based on DF14 I really didn't see anything listed. However, there are people using it in custom ROMS. Are people first flashing the stock ROM and then flashing the custom ROM over the top of it, retaining the new modem? I thought the modem was part of the custom ROM package, right? If so, then the custom ROM would just wipe out the stock ROM I'd flashed.

What's the best way to get DF14 flashed, and retain all the customized goodness of theKevster's M2D ROM?

Later,

Robert

I flashed back to a stock DC22 ROM then used the Verizon update to update to DF14. I then just used the DC22 cooked roms. I am a novice at this but read that the DC22 ROMs work with DF14 as the only thing DF14 did was fix a modem problem not the PIM. So far the ROM I am using is working fine. I did switch to the  WarMikes ROM though. I had problems getting thekevester's to work and after flashing WarMikes I liked it better any way. It had more of the features I like to use cooked in.

I guess the FM Radio issue was never figured out?  I love this ROM otherwise.

Can someone suggest a good, stable ROM that the FM Radio still works in?  That's one of the reasons I chose an Omnia.

Thanks,

Hi, I am a newbie. Just flashed my i910 with thekevster's M2D posted on this thread. Wondering if I can get FMRadio work somehow. Thanks.

Hey guys sadly i tried everything to get this radio working, and it doesnt. I have used other custom roms where it does work, so just keep trying i guess or find a .cab file for the radio where you transfer it and install through explorer in your phone. However because the radio is cooked it i dont think that'll work.

As for the verizon update i put up some info about it and have a list of the "apps" it has if interested, but it is 6.1 opposed to 6.5.5 which is what this rom is i think?

Is there anyone still building new ROMS, or have ALL the chefs retired?

[robertjm]

They haven't retired. They've graduated to Android phones

Are there still any cooking Omnia Roms?

[SBL_]

Hey Kev, I just wanted to thank you for this ROM. It's just what I was looking for- slimmed down, fast, with a lot of functionality.

[thekevster]

I will officially no longer be cooking for the i910. I've been on a several month hiatus, and the other day I finally made the switch to Android. Now I realize just how shitty the Omnia was lol. Thanks to everybody who supported me and tested my ROMs for me. It was fun while it lasted.

[The Eleven]

So which phone did you go with?  I'm heading towards the X even with the bootloader issue.  I know somone will crack, if they haven't already.  Thanks for all you've done here with the i910.

I'm there with you.  I flashed my Omnia to a stock ROM and put it on EBAY.  I'll have a Droid Eris by this weekend.

I ended up going with the Droid 1. I bought my friends iPhone 3GS a few months ago to use as an iPod and to connect to wifi, then I decided to sell it and get a Droid since I'm on my parents' plan and they aren't planning on upgrading anytime soon.

Thanks for all your hard work Kev!  I'm still using your ROM until I can upgrade my plan in February (I'm holding out for my new for two and hopefully a 4G phone!).  The Omnia is definitely nothing compared to the current high end phones but I still think it's a pretty good little phone especially for how old it is at this point.

I'd like to reflash w/ this rom but I'm not doing it until I can get my NAM settings written down.  Is it possible my phone is screwed up?  Every time I try *772, **772, #772, ##772, it just tries to dial out?   What's the secret?  I've dug around pretty thoroughly to no end.

What is the X button that is used in this rom?
I like that it actually closes programs.

Could I get your OEM/EXT for wifi router?
Yours is the only rom (including my own and .cab) that wifi routing has worked on my phone.
