Help: Verizon connection settings - Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development

I recently upgraded to DCD3.2.5 ROM and Radio version 3.42.50 And now i cant send or receive MMS messages. I can connect to wifi and i can send regular texts but when i send a picture it only gives me the option to send through email. How do u get MMS back. I installed the verizon carrier cab. Should i install the cricket carrier cab as well?

seems like this may be what you need

Follow A lazy Dude suggestion. You will need to install Arcsoft. I have VZW and that takes care of the issue and gives you threaded SMS/MMS as well.

Thanks they worked. Now i have a problem with the GPS. i installed the new radio version and everything but for somereason no GPS program will pick it up. i tried using google maps and Quick GPS. In order to use the GPS does wifi need to be off? If so then that means i have to use data which will cost me since i have no plan.

make sure you have location set to on and not 911 only, its in the phone options from the dialer, under the location settings

thanks but location is on. also what is Rev A and whats the difference between having a 1X symbol on your phone and haveing EV symbol

1xRTT is strictly voice/SMS
EVDO is strictly data
SMS uses 1xRTT
MMS uses EVDO for multimedia, 1xRTT for message

Do this for GPS.... Set the phone to 911 only. Then soft-reset. Then switch it back to Location on... and soft reset. Also, do a *228 , 1 OR *22899 and let the phone re-program / soft reset. Let me know if that helps.

Nope still not working for me

Have you tried a hard reset? and don't install anything else.

no but i would prefer not too. Ive already done a bunch of hard resets and i finally have my phone where i want it. it would just suck to have to redo it all again.
Also my wifi isnt working. It keeps saying i have the incorrect network key when i know its right. its the same one im using on my laptop and it works fine. maybe i will have to hard reset.
these are my installed programs. Could these be messing anything up?
AIM
Oxios Memory
Quick GPS
Total COmmander
WMminibattery
HTC Home Plugin
HTC home customizer
PHM RegEdit
Pim Backup
and then i also have the verizon carrier cab, Cody ppc performance, GC arcsoft Mobile.
When i start up my phone it always says "the file 'Program' coul not be found or it is not signed with a trusted certificate. Try reinstalling the software." BUt i dont even know what its looking for.
Maybe i should hard reset But is there any of those programs i shouldnt put back onto my phone?

have you tried the Titan GPS fix yet?
check out this post..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406260

would it make a difference that i have radio 3.42.50 with DCD 3.2.5 ROM?
Becasue i noticed you have the GPS fix but you also have a differen radio version than i do.

i just tried that fix and it still doesnt seem to be working. anything i can do? should i reinstall the radio or do anything different?
Im thinking about hard restaring the phone again but when i do that should i change the ROM or radio? Also any reason for the wifi not to be accepting the network key?

i just did a hard reset and only put google maps on to see if it would work and still not working. do i need a different radio? when i go to google maps and click on my location it says your handset does not seem to support the my location feature. Am i doing it wrong? Am i supposed to click on somthing different rather than my location?

There should be use GPS link on that menu. Click on that and it will start up the GPS and find your position. The default settings for the GPS in Google is to let windows manage it and it should turn it on if all is working.

GPS on WM6 What I am doing wrong?

Hey all,
I have my athena for a couple of days now but I still can't get the GPS to position. As it is a T-mobile Ameo I used Oprio's Unlocker first. Everything went fine and now I can use it with every SIM. Then I upgraded with the WM6 Dopod U1000 and so far so good. The only thing that worries me is that I can't get the GPS to work. I tried both OziExplorer and Googlemaps, also BeelineGPS and GPSTuner. None of these programs can find a satellite and obtain a position. Am I missing some settings or maybe there are no satelites over my area?
OPp and something else that bothers me. Is the Status Display just not working under WM6 or it's only by me so?
I have the x7500/Advantage and GPS works after updating to WM6. I haven't yet unlocked my phone because i'm waiting for the cooked ROM's to be released before I go through this.
Have you installed maybe some other software that uses GPS and see what happens or are you trying it with just one program?
have you changed the gps settings in start-settings-system-external gps?
I use software-none hardware-5 baud-9600 tick-manage auto.
run quickgps first before you try any of your programmes,and let it update, this will give your progs satellites to look for and speed things up a bit, it does take some time to get a fix.
you haven't tried selecting it as a sirf-star have you? that will stop it working and need the battery leaving out for a while..

yep I tried both COM5 and COM4 with 4800/9600, also ran the QuickGPS.
What do you mean by selecting it as a sirf-star?
some software (for example memory map navigator) gives you the option to select different types of gps receiver protocols, there are a few. garmin, navman, magelan, sirf, nmea,
nmea is what the 7500 uses, but if you select sirf-star then it appears the gps shuts down, and the best way of restoring it at present is to either take the battery out or if you're lucky just hard reset it.
I did this
No, I haven't selected sirf. Is there some simple GPS software just to try whether the integrated GPS is working? Could it be just that there are no satellites over my area?
Come on guys, tell me how you get your GPS to work. Should I go back to WM5 or maybe change the Radio ROM? All the programs I tried still can't find any satellites? Any suggestions for other settings?

I don't have an answer for you, but I can tell you that the GPS satellite system covers the whole planet, so there are some over your area. Sounds like it could be a hardware problem.
Hmm I know but althoufh I am in the city centre it shout find at least 1-2 satellites. Maybe I should go somewhere out of the city and try there. I still doubt that there's something wrong with the settings or the software.
i had the same problem, using AMEO, unlocked using olipro unlocker.. GPS never worked afterwords .. the SIRFbootloader section in the ROM isn't updatable getting a communication error and that is it. I've to return it to T-mobile.. don't know how to remove the Olipro bootloader and how i can get back the original T-mobile rom!
Hope your problem is fixable .. as mine isn't

I did upgrade to Olipro, but I have bever seen any communcation errors. As far as I can tell, every upgrade went fine. My GPS works in 2% of the cases, it takes forever to get a fix, and after even the slightest displacement or move, the fix is gone again.
I am not getting any communications errors. I did all all the settungs as shown on this site http://www.x7501.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1184315093/0
and f.e on Google maps it just shows "Seeking GOS satellites (0)"
On the BeelineGPS I get "Fix not available" and a red circle blinks.
I really don't know what to try more. Maybe should I flash another Radio ROM or get back to WM 5.0? Any other suggestions?
mine too after upgrading to WM6, my quickGPS is not able to download the satellite data via Activesync. i used to be able to do so on WM5... whats wrong?
try this!!
Unplug battery then plug it again, this will help your mobile like factory reset !

For tests I am using old small app which was fro PPC2003. It works fine with my Advantage X7500 on Com4 and 4800 baud rate in WM6. It usualy starts showing satelites after 1 minute or so.
I have attached it here.
Edit:
I never tried to use quickGPS via ActiveSync. I use vsta. However it works fine and downloads GPS inf via WLAN/GPRS/UMTS or what is actualy available.
Did you do step 2 and three of Olipro Unlock
Step 2 Sends A Radio Rom to Unlock and step 3 a Rom tha make your GPS work again
It says so in the Olipro Unlock Documentation

which rom to use

Ok so now since I no longer have my ipaq 4700.... im loving my mogul.
I do however have the latest srpint rom and dont mind it....
the only question I have is this...
I do not have a dataplan and when I use the internal gps and or messenger....the unit constantly dials out to #777. I called sprint and they disabled HAI or HIA or something like that so they said my internet is disabled...
I just get tired of the constand dial out, failed to connect messages..
which rom would be the best for just getting this to go away....in a tweak somewhere I read that there was a reg key to set to not dial out and I did that... also it said go into manage connections and add a user name. However everytime I do that the name gets removed.
any suggestions?
THanks
Jeff
I don't think any rom would fix that problem, cause the vast majority of users use data plans.
I believe the gps dialout is a reslt of the assisted gps capabilities. I recently disabled this in my wife's sprint touch by altering this key:
HKLM\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS
I changed both the 'enableAGPS' and 'enableGPSSmartMode' from 1 to 0. I remember which of the two fixed the problem. Probably just the first is necessary. You'll probably need a soft reset.
To get rid of the dialing out completely, you can go to settings\connections\connections\manage existing connections and then delete the sprint. Of course sprint makes it come back, so you'll need to delete the htc_cm_guardian.exe file from your startup items. I am pretty sure that will work. What ends up happening is you get an error when you try and connect to the internet. I'm not sure that's any better than trying to dial out, but at least you know sprint won't screw up your bill (they do a pretty good job of reimbursing for these when they screw up).
guess im batting a 1000....
I already had both keys set to 0
also I do not have that exe in my startup so cant removeit...
oh well...
Try going into your Connections setting and deleting the #777 profile - it shouldnt dial out after that.

No 3G with cooked ROMs?

Hi Guys.
So I was finally able to get a cooked ROM on my Fuze using an older XP machine that I had. But now, after trying both ROMeOS and DCS, I'm not getting any 3G signal. What i do get at times is the hsdpa signal, but i don't actually receive it; none of the data services are working (internet, weather, youtube, etc.). Could someone please tell me how to get 3G on my Fuze?
EDIT: It seems like I am getting the HSDPA signal at times but its very tempermental
anyone have a solution?

In start>settings>phone>band do you have the auto in both drop menus on??
also try start>settings>connections>advanced network> in the HSDPA try to see which option is used. try to use 'enable HSDPA Only' or even disable it completely and see what happens.
had the same issue and this seemed to fix it.
Advanced Config Tool>menu>more settings>Comm manager - Add 3g to comms manager.
Open comms manager and switch 3g off > soft reset > switch 3g on > soft reset
Good luck
thanks ill try that out when i get a chance. what rom were you using?
EDIT: nvm saw it in your sig
did you run the network config wizard after flashing the rom?
it prompts (or detects) your country and operator and configures most things for you.
if it's not part of your cooked rom, look for it as a .cab
yea i ran the config but it still doesnt connect to 3g. I'm trying the suggested solution now
still not working....
I still cant run apps like cellular video and the youtube app. Youtube just wont load the vids, and CV gives me a message that says it's only supported to 3G phones. I really hope theres a solution to this since I really love ROMeOS but I want apps like youtube and CV
haha i give up. I officially ***king hate this. I feel like I spent 300 bucks on a phone that is perfectly engineered and has crap software on it. Im so agitated i can't even think straight. I'm really close to just getting rid of this phone and i dont even know.
Well... felt good to tell someone.
I am having the same problems. I am using an ATT Fuze and I flashed ROMeOS last night and now I cant to connect to the internet or use the youtube app via HSDPa/HSUPA, 3G, or Edge. I can use these applications if I turn on Wi Fi, but if I use cellular internet I get a big red sign that says "ERROR" and then followed by "the remote server refuses to perform the request. This address is not available". It also shows an H on the top bar if anyone was wondering. Any fix for this or just try a different ROM?
Update: I tried a new ROM and same thing. Does anyone have a solution? I am sure us two aren't the only ones with this problem!
I am getting pretty desperate, can anyone help?
same problem here, my area supports hsdpa but with a speedtest i have between 24 and 36kbit

go to start>settings>Connections>Advanced network>GPRS "make sure CHAP authenticaion is selected. that is what ATT network uses. then go to Start>Settings>Connections>Connections> select manage existing connections and then go to the proxy tab. make sure your remove both check marks and you should be good to go.
Wow, thank you HackMimic that worked! I tried everything I could think of and was about to go back to stock ROM just to use 3G, but now I can continue using flashed ROMS. To the original poster of this thread try the above and it should work as I had the exact same symptoms you described and now I am cruising along on HSDPA! Once again thanks HackMimic!
no problem. i had the same issue back in the day when the connection setup app first cam out i noticed that it always seem to set the GPRS Settings to PAP instead of CHAP which is needed for MMS and the net over here in america. also noticed issues with proxy selected. glad i could help.
Yea I tried HackMimic's fix but not directly from you . I was reading on how to configure skyfire and they said to do that, and what ended up happening is all of the sudden the youtube app worked and so did everything else. Regardless, thanks for the solution. I'm a little more amazed everyday by the wealth of knowledge on this forum

Cricket doesn't program my phone after unlocking

I just got a Mogul today. It's really nice, but I've run into about fifteen brick walls while trying to unlock, flash, and program it so I can use it with Cricket. I used Olipro on it, then I flashed the latest radio to it, and then I flashed Ryan Mogul's ROM to it. I loaded the included Cricket PRL, and then after a lot of frustration I was able to get it to work with QPST. I changed my SPC to 000000, and I changed the carrier name thing to CRKT (should I have done that? It was SPCS before). Then I went and enabled all the GPS settings, and wrote to the phone.
So I thought, now that I have my SPC as 000000, I can get my phone programmed. But of course not; when I dial *228, I always get the "We're sorry" response. I think I missed a step or something. Maybe it was the MDN: When I dialed ##000000, both the MDN and MSID were exactly the same, but I heard that the MDN was supposed to be the phone number. You know, I'm trying to "transfer" my phone number to the new phone. I can't think of anything to do beyond this point. If I dial any other number, by the way, I get some kind of "Welcome to x roaming service" message.
Anyway, I really want to get this thing working before I head off to bed, so fast help would be appreciated. Thanks.
my MDN (phone number) is different from my MSID number. i think Cricket links your phone number to another MSID when you get a new phone, as mine has changed twice!
in QPST, when you set the SPC code to zeros, there is a button to hit to write the code to memory, or save it to flash, or something. i missed that a few times. you enter the one from the log file, then send 000000, then write it. it's not very intuitive. but if you can edit EPST with 000000 then you are fine. i haven't touched anything else in QPST on five phones i have flashed to Cricket
also, you need to point the phone to the right towers with the 1050, or 1013 PRL file, if you haven't. but if it is Cricket on the line with *228 you are good
you don't need to activate the phone, if you don't want to. if the settings in EPST are right you will be OK, as that is all the programming does
I agree with catfishk.
If you can get to ur EPST using all zero's then ur fine. When you call *228 and you do hear the cricket guy then thats good as well.
Try heading over to www.howardforums.com to download a cricket prl. I would recommend 1040 or 1050 and then try to *228 for it to program.
*228 will also program your phone with a new PRL for your market.
I don't know if I could have programmed it manually, but I called Cricket customer support yesterday at 7:15AM and they quickly changed everything for me for $15. Everything went smoothly after that, *228 worked just fine and all that. I don't know if the call and everything wasn't required, but it sure made things easier. My mogul is working now, but I have some now:
I heard that some things, such as MMS, don't work after flashing this phone to Cricket. Are there fixes for whatever is broken?
Also, when I use google maps and I try to look up my GPS location, it shows me as being somewhere only relatively close to where I am and then it says that I should be within 80 meters of that point. I was in a building today trying it out, and it said I was out on the street. Should I just use iGuidance or something?
And finally, is there something special that I need to know for tethering the device? I heard that I can make it act as a WiFI AP, but when I used WMWiFiRouter, it just said it connected to the AP in my house and it didn't show up on my computer's AP list. Is there something else I need to do?
Edit: Oh yeah, also, how much memory should I have free at a time? Currently, I only have 18mb free. I want to have at least Palringo open in the background, and it seems that TouchFlo uses 2mb. I used a program to free up 2mb, so that's really useful, but I didn't imagine so much of the RAM would be used up. I guess that's the way it is.
Also, Opera seems to have some problems. It throws an error when I try to go to a website sometimes, and last time I tried it on EVDO it wouldn't go to any websites when IE would. Anything I should do?
Thanks.
What ROM did you use? The mogul to me really does not have the memory to push T2D or M2D properly with other programs. I would find a clean cricket ROM without the m2d.
Also, to get MMS working you need a program called Arcsoft and manually program the settings for it to work.
As for everything else you just need to research a bit.
I used Ryan Mogul's ROM. Can't I just disable T2D and M2D? I know I disabled T2D, but I dunno where to find M2D to disable it.
Thanks for the MMS info, but the thing is, I don't know what the other things that don't work are. I found out I was stupidly using the Java version of Opera, so I now have the latest WM version and it's amazing. Any answers with the stuff I asked about, such as GPS and tethering?

it doesn't use true GPS, from what i have heard. it uses AGPS which triangulates from cell towers or something. i dunno but it is never spot on, just approximating

you need to install the right drivers in Windows (i presume that's your computer) and tether it via USB, i think. it pulls data, and acts as a WIFI card from your PC/Laptop, but doesn't act as an AP, i think. i use Linux so i do it differently :/

Opera 9.5 is BETA, and has issues. mine is stable but i use the mobile version, not the Java mini version. also, Cricket is an authentication mess when it comes to EVDO- it works great until you put it down, then it takes a few minutes to get it's s**t together. IE and Opera bail with errors timing out and you just have to keep clicking! it helps to disconnect then reconnect but meh...

Xv6800 no gps at all i think i have tried everything

Hey everyone i know alot about this phone from your forums. I have done the gps update on my phone using the wiki you had and Worked for some time. So after some time the gps wont pick up any satellites. Ok so i thought well i would hard reset and resintall the carrier cab and gps cab nogo. Ok so i reverted to stock rom and redid to dcd rom and radio added the carrier cab and gps cab again nogo. I even tried the mr1 update with gps cab via your wiki and still google maps and live search wont pick up the gps. Does anyone other than a defective gps unit have any other steps to try would be appreciated. thanks
Did you even search to see if others had your same problem. Look in the last 10 pages here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424387
have you applied the aGPS fix? and if you have, did you update with the new information? im not sure when it happened, but verizon changed the IP address and port you should be using. i lost gps for a while and didnt even realize that a hard reset made me lose all my gpsOne settings (when i lost my akey). if you have the aGPS fix set up correctly, you should have no issues at all.
I've been having a similar problem. I am not sure what the definitive ip address settings for verizon users should be (ip/port, that is). I think I've seen at least 2 or 3 different settings, including Telus ones. Does anyone know, definitively, which ip address and port we should be using?

When you mean the ip address change do you mean using qpst and if so i might not have changed the ip address.so i will give that a chance i saw in a previous post a different ip didnt think anything of it. I will try and if someone has the new ip can you please send it to me.
I found
ServerIP=66.174.95.132
ServerPort=8888
Or is it
ServerIP = 216.198.139.92
ServerPort = 8889
And one thing i looked at my phone and when i pull up qpst i dont see the usb ports listed i do see unknown i would try those but if anyone has anything on that would be great thanks
Guess i have to revert back from mr1 to dcd rom hope this works i loved my gps. my omnitech with igo and navigon is ok but i like google maps better.
you should be using DCDs rom anyways. the correct settings are the second block that you listed. your ports may not match the same numbers as the wiki, but add them both and open whichever one has SURF next to it
Use the telus servers. The verizon ones are hit and miss if they work without VZ navigator.

Ok so i had the xv6800 and got it working with gps. Then i decided to get the xv6900 because it has more ram and i knew my software i had would work on it. Plus i knew about this hack so....I gave it a shot.
Well I turned on the XV6900 as soon as i had power running to it, and it came from verizon with 6.1 on it. Which saved me some time having to install it later. The first thing i did was install the vahalla cab that i had on my 6800.
the registry settings were automatically set at
Mode 2
PDE address 5C8BC6D8
PDE port to 8889
I then installed the Serf telus agps deal....
Mode 4
server ip 216.198.139.92
server port 8889
then i install Franson gpsgate2.6
and it shows me a lite green icon on my today screen then when you go into settings it says "getting gps data, but no position"
I couldn't get gps to work in google or live. Maybe because i was impatient. I sat here at work on the 8th floor of my building and still couldn't get it to work. So finally I when i was leaving for work, i called my wife to let her know i was on my way home, and when i hung up the phone....there it was. The light green was now dark green which means gps position. And it works now. So i installed tomtom and that works (btw i use gpsgate for this to fool tomtom into thinking that the installed gps is a real tethered gps, because built in wouldn't work). So now gps works great, until I turn on my phone on the 8th floor. So my guess is, the gps has to get a lock outside with clearview of sky while you use your phone. once you do this the agps helps out and then you can go inside and still have location.
Try it let me know if this works for you.
btw- has anyone been getting text msgs saying a free software update available by dialing *228 then 2? this updates the roaming area. I wonder if this is tied in with us hacking the gps. Just a thought.
