Alltel MMS

Ok, so I have searched for quite a while now on both here and PPCGeeks with no luck. I have just installed dcd's 3.2.5 ROM with the Radio ROM 3.42.02.
Is there a way to get the MMS function installed and working for Alltel?

seriously? dude there is a ton right now on here about Alltel MMS. Most of it when searched will probably pull up a former DCD ROM like 3.20 or 3.23, but there is a ton of it.
would you care to share? im new to the custom ROMs and the MMS thing is the only thing I have not been able to figure out. thanks in advance
search for LennySh_Alltel_Arcsoft_3.0.26.12c
pm if you cant find
http://forum.htcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=2
The reason why Lenny's cab is the only one that works for Alltel right now is because it actually is a pure CDMA version of Arcsoft. Since then, there have been no other versions like it..UNTIL the VZW update that I received. I'm working on getting it packaged up and working as per my Arcsoft thread.
Fixed and working for me on both dcd and kitchen
I got it working and ave put the files and such at
ftp://ftp.up.ppcgeeks.com/Titan/Users/mettercomputers
give it a try and let me know how it works for you. I am waiting for some thing newer.

Noob Question..how does new verizon update compare to DCD Rom ?

I mean like, does the newest DCD rom already have the same changes that the verizon rom has? like:
1) longer battery life
2) MMS Threading messaging
I know it doesnt have GPS, but so thats why I will probably flash DCD's rom, but I was just wondering about the other aspects of the rom.
Thanks,
Matthew
there IS GPS, its faster, DCD makes your phone a billion times better then what the stock rom offers.
I am not going to flash the latest verizon ROM update, but I can tell you that from the original verizon ROM and dcd's 1.7 or so roms it was night and day.
I am sure that battery life with dcd's roms will be better than stock, as I find it gets better with every new version.
Threaded messaging is great, run GC's verizon arcsoft cab and it all just works great.
Basically every thing about a custom rom is better than stock verizon.
DCD Rom
Been trying to follow all the threads - do the DCD roms come with the Microsoft Office stuff? I saw that Adobe reader is not there but I can add that myself. What else is missing from the stock rom?
Regards..... Steve

If you use the Kitchen to build your own.. (it's easy.. a bunch of checkboxes) you can select to install or not install Acrobat, Games, VPN, etc... They Do Come with Office.

If you want to try the new VZW rom... DO NOT LET the customizations run or you will have a hard time going back to a dcd rom and have GPS.
I think DCD roms are faster and have more features. I wouldnt go stock again.. But it's really a user preference. You can try both.. but like I said above if you try the new VZW rom, and you let customizations run... you'll be locked out of GPS.. even if you flash a DCD rom. (It's fixable, but not fun)

they're working on releasing packages and cabs. So far they only have GSM roms with it. More info here:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=86973
HAHAHAHAHAHA They can't even get 2.5 to properly work on the CDMA Raph, and now you want them to try 2.6???? Come on. I think you'll see a proper Android ROM before 2.6.
thanx 4 the fast reply
http://eliteteam.htc-hackers.mobi/pub/
i found on there the 2.6 rar dunno if its just a dump for manual install or what
yeah, I downloaded that once, to try to incorporate it into kitchen. It is very buggy. Half of it does not work. It also has the contacts problem like the rom over at everything TD/Pro. I think it may be the same Manila files.

[Q] Custom ROM closest to Stock?

I know I could have used the search engine for the question I`m going to ask you, people, but I haven`t got the slightest idea about what to search for.
I would like to use a new ROM for my HD2, but I want something which is close to stock, because I want to use the SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 as well. One of the key features should be a WORKING SMS application, which would NOT contain the "stuck in outbox" bug.
Please help me decide upon a specific ROM and, if I posted in the wrong section, I kindly ask a moderator to move my topic where it belongs to.
Many thanks in advance!
Just read each thread - but AFAIK there isn't one ROM using SPB
I have seen some ROMs coming pre-cooked with SPb inside, but that`s not my point. All I want is a simple ROM, better than the official 1.48, which has the SMS issue solved...
NRGZ28 (EnergyRoms) has made a build with:
Energy.Leo.23557.Titanium.Apr.13.7z
or
Energy.Leo.21898.Titanium.Apr.13.7z
Titanium means that HTC Sense is not cooked in so you can use SPB Mobile Shell (this is also the reason he made those 2 titanium builds)
As far as i see from his twitter page he intends to cook a version including spb mobile shell as well
@Iosif_Octavian A new SPB themed energyrom will be made pretty soon here.. about 13 hours ago via Digsby in reply to Iosif_Octavian

Sounds pretty good, actually... Could you provide a link, please? I've found something but it`s for the HD, not for the HD2.
Also, I`d like to mention the fact that I`ve found a ROM named Topix which seems to be pretty much similar to the stock one, except for some new apps...

so, that's all the cooked roms and official roms from 1.66 then, I bet you'd struggle to find a rom that doesn't fit the above criteria.
Well there's no official 1.66 for my device as HTC won't take my S/N for whatever reason. So right now all I can do is go for a cooked ROM. The particular thing I want my ROM to do is only to fix the SMS bug and nothing more. That's why I have such a hard time finding one, because all of them include other changes, which I don't want to have. I mean, it's ok if it includes several useful apps, but I don't want a whole pile of new stuff...
if you hspl you don't have to go for a cooked rom. all the official roms are available in the official roms thread. hit that bigg fatty first link in the first post.
just flash them over usb, they'll work fine.
But will it be available in WWE? I really like my HD2 speaking English...
And while we're at it, is the SMS issue fixed in the 1.66 ROM?
And another thing... is 1.66 the latest official ROM? I checked the post, but it only mentions the 1.46 (or sthing) and the 1.48...
in the time it took to ask you could have looked at the link and seen most roms are available, especially wwe and uk provider stock roms.
There are enough cooked ROMs out, everyone should find their own, just flash one and try it out every cook spends a lot of time on the development. So go ahead and try a couple of them. Personally I tried out about 4 different ROMs and stuck by Artemis. Good luck

Can I install additional CABs if I flash my stock ROM?

hi there,
i want to flash my stock ROM due to freezing issues on my HTC currently I am using cht editor 1.85 with stock rom and whilst I like the way my phone looks i.e. wallpaper, clock, apps etc the crashing is doing my head in...
However I am unsure which ROM to go for? any suggestions? I have been reading the reviews and its between Chuckys Tabtastic and Energy ROM
For me speed, stability and performance is important, if I had to choose one it would be stability - I cannot live with my phone constantly crashing its killing me!
My concern is though, if I flash to either can I install additional CABS such as GS Alarm, my naughty wallpapers, and my great TAG Carrera watch?
Or can I only use the apps these ROMs come with?
Any support and assistance would be greatly appreciated
Cheers
You can install all programs you want.
You will have to take into account the following:
1) Signed cabs only, or disable this check (search forum)
2) Cabs are winmo 6.5 compatible (a lot out there are not)
3) Cabs are HD2 compatible (screensize is the major issue here)
Stock rom works about the same as coocked roms: a lot of installs lead to slower system.
thank you
how do I know if CAB's are signed or not?
I am more interested in G Alarm, thats great, the rest well not that bothered really..apart from the Torch App
Any ideas?

It doesn't matter if they are signed, just install them regardless.
You can still customize a custom ROM as you would a stock ROM, even more so. Everything you have on your current ROM you can move over, and you will also have more if you download a 23xxx (WM 6.5.x) based ROM as the menu systems are changed and the softkey bars as well.
'What ROM's best' questions aren't a moderators favorite post as they are and should be closed, it's a matter of opinion and there is no one definitive answer, however as a user, I would suggest Energy ROM.
thank you
this will be my first attempt at a ROM update
I will go with the energy ROM
Whats the best guide out there I can use atm?

Search the forum.
Each ROM has it's own set of prerequisits, so learn at the discussion of the rom (usually the first post.)
A general (rather overwhelming) guide to flashing can be found here
While this video tutorial is very illustrative.
But why not wait until your crash-problem is solved, or close that thread...

my crashing problem I believe is down to, cht editor 1.85 and cookies tab
I thought by flashing it would allow me to runs the apps without cht editor 1.85 and cookies tab to provide all round better performance.
Prior to me having installed cht editor and cookies tab my phone was stable, no crashes, or 1 every 3 months....At the moment I find myself hard resetting twice / three times a day
On the other hand I have not received any definitive advise as to the cause of my crashing or freezing problem so my perspective is to remove what I currently have and flash..
Is this good or bad in your opinion?
thanks for your time and advice
How can CHT be a problem if you HARD reset every time? (and two three times/day?)
Removing the battery is NOT a hard reset, (just a hard way to soft-reset )
For a real HARD reset do following (remember to backup all your contacts, appointments etc, your phone will reset to shipping condition *since you have not flashed a custom rom yet )
For Hard reset (and soft-reset too) read here
sorry you are right I usually take the battery out and reset
I have hard resetted 3 - 4 times previously
I want to download Energy ROM, the standard version but the link is dead...is there a new one?
Here you go, this link works for me....
From this thread
Please note all prerequisites especially the needed HSPL and radioRom
I am after the "cookie" energy ROM, after it counts down I receive "service unavailable" error message?
any ideas why?
the first link in your previous post does not work either?
I noticed I first have to perform the HardSPL followed by the RadioROM then install the actual ROM....
Read here I posted it for someone a couple of days ago.
completed the hard spl, rom flash and radio update last night...
thanks for your help and advice - its much appreciated
am loving the energy ROM, so far all my previous crashing and freezing issues are resolved, if they return i will let you know
thank you for your assistance
