Sweet, so another official ROM to be made available by early May!

The ROM just now posted by AznTegra is the originally loaded ROM, for those that are worried about flashing since they can't go back, now you can! (but why would you want to!?)

My phone is DEAD now after 2nd flash with an checked mark on phone bootloader and other. I be able to send & receive a call OK but the Email and internet does not work.

Call technical support 2 times and spend 45 min on each call try hard-reset, reprograming and some other stuff but at the end, they will send me a replacement today and I should receive it by tomorrow.

Does anyone know what cause my internet service not working? (yes, I do have unlimited internet data plan)

Any steps I need to do?

Thanks

I believe the locate me function uses your IP address and not your gps. I may be wrong, but if its true, it might explain the problem.

Really? What would an IP address be needed for when I am using the maps? Its an option there.

I told you that everyone would appreciate it if you uploaded the ROM,

I have yet to Flash it myself, Still looking for my VZ access CD to get the Driver.

AZintegra,

Can you get directions on how to pull a ROM off of the Phone with the UMDL_OMNIA application?

Before I flash I will Do a total hard Reset and Pull the Plain VZW ROM from My Omnia Incase anyone wants to go back.

I won't be able to do this until layter tonight though.

I dont know, like i said i could be completely wrong lol. I just thought i read something like that somewhere.

I think the newest version OF WLS uses Tower triangulation for Locate Me, which it gets from the Data Connection or IP Address.

The instructions i read said to not check the boxes you refer to in #2. i flashed without them checked.

I tried that at first and no dice, so I reflashed with those options checked and it works. Go figure.

To get GPS working in Windows live, click on change location, and "current GPS", not locate me. Dont know what the deal is with locate me, but it does not work for me. Current GPS works GREAT!!

Did you have to change the com port?

from what i gather locate me has something to do with the phone(probably the triangulation) AND internet.

so based on the fact we have a cdma carrier we are unable to do simultaneous voice (phone, triangulation) and data (internet).

i have a friends at&t (gsm carrier) phone and locate me works effortlessly!

He knows that. He was trying to get the locate me function working and it doesn't.

M
y fellow forum members, I appreciate the opportunity to share this most joyous occasion with you, your families, and friends. I congratulate you all on this significant accomplishment. I hope and expect that it will be but one of many important milestones in the days to come.

I realize that today is about a feat of epic proportions, and so I’ll try to keep my remarks fairly brief, concise, and poignant. However, we shall not forget the adversity we have overcome in the face of
corporate greed
. This marks the day of a great triumph over the oppressive and encroaching arm motorized by a tenacious lust for excessive profitability through false marketing promises. In any event, don’t forget the score:

David - 1

Goliath - 0

Thank you, and may God bless you, your families, and the
United
States of
America
!

Please stop telling verizon that we hacked their phone, since it's all ours now!

They are about to see a whole new slew of omnias rolling around.

EDIT:

And to the ppl still asking how to do this/having issues.

Follow the instructions to the last T, do not do anything less, do not do anything more.

So far the ones that have flashed by using this method were the ones that had less issues!

And if you do have trouble, after you flash, do a hard reset on your main memory, sometimes that helps.

And read the first post too!

I did nothing of the such, nor would I have any reason to do so, hence the "fellow forum members!"

Well, that could explain it, if AGPS isn't working.
