Lets face it. The new radio sucks horribly. The leaked Rom is very bad as well. Countless problems for almost everyone. Has anyone extracted the gps drivers? I would kill to go back to the 2.17 sprint rom with the gps added on.
Won't work you need the new radio, and rom.
Mine is working without any problems, and the radio is great.

well, the new radio is a BETA after all. and i havent had any problems with it. The new radio is what enables the GPS in the phone, and the 3.16 based roms have the drivers that are needed for gps. so these go hand in hand. you need em both for gps.

No problems for me, works great and couldn't be happier with everyones work on getting the GPS and Rev A to work. I appreciate all the work that people are putting in to get all this going. I guess you'll just have to wait until your carrier releases their updated ROM with GPS enabled, maybe that will be less problematic for you.
I am betting when this is released there will be a newer radio, this is a beta and the radio is at least a couple of months old, I am sure they have done some tweaking since then, at least if they are seeing the same issues one would hope they have tweaked a bit more here and there.
Same goes for the rom piece of it it is an old beta as well they are both 2 months old, so whatever Sprint and/or HTC has been doing for the past 2 months is unknown.
You Sprint folks should all be happy to me it seems Sprint is the only provider that gives half a rats ass. On Telus the last rom came out back in the beginning of July and none of the other Canadian providers that carry this phone have provided any updates whatsoever.
As Fallingup said this is a beta and the issues we are seeing from the radio patch exhibit normal BETA behavior...
Hell even HTC is convinced the Radio isn't ready for Primetime and keep delaying the release! That says to me they have hit some roadblocks they are having trouble dealing with.
It would not surprise me at all if HTC consciously decided to leak this radio so that the community could take a crack at solving those issues and give them some ideas on how to fix the patch.
I am hoping someone in the community is looking at this beta version of radio and looking for ways to improve that....
Cause I'm betting the second someone can tweak that radio to work well, HTC will take that file and use it as a roadmap for an official release!

Some people have terrrible issues. Some have none at all. I have no problems at all. This is the best set up I have had. I am using the new Radio and Bootloader with a variation of DCD 2.2.0 ROM. Working great. What specific ROM are you using?

the actual results are somewhere in between...the ones with zero issues either don't use data connect extensively or haven't really run everything through it's paces. How could they the ROM is only a day old! LOL
Others just have issues with the 6.1 OS and still others have issues just flashing. The latter is simply user error and that will always be there no way around that. You have to know those issues will show up even if the perfectly stable ROM gets released.
The Radio is IMO definitly not ready for prime time. between the BT issues, Data Connect and the problem of having to prime the GPS before a navigation software like TomTom can use it there will have to be another update to the radio ROM before we can be sure we gain GPS capability without losing anything else...
Right now Radio appears to be a bit of a tradeoff as opposed to a simple feature addition.
Once an official (as opposed to leaked) radio comes out I think all the REAL problems people are having will go away.

That would be funny as hell. Imagine if they ended up using a Radio that someone here on XDA-Dev was tweaking!! I hope they get commisisons

As far as I know nobody here on XDA Dev has actually tweaked a Radio. People put together firmware files from other stuff, and bundle them all together, but to actually fix and recompile a radio file goes much deeper than anyone here handles.
I have had only one problem running dcd 2.10 and 2.20. I have run critically low on memory once. This has never happened before.
But as for the radio and OS, I think my call quality is noticably better than with the stock rom or any of dcd's 1.x rom/radio setups that I have tested.
Oh, just FYI, I'm in Utah. I wonder if the radio issues have to do with a difference in radio hardware on the towers in New Jersey.
After reading for several days and hearing the good the bad and the ugly I opted for the straight leaked rom. No unlocking and all that.
Well so far so good. GPS works, RevA not a real difference so far
Fairly stable. Happy with my beta software until the official release

Yup, me too.
As a matter of fact, I'm not going to go to DCD's 2.2.1 until this current flash (on my phone) bombs. 2.2.0 is working great for me.
For those who claim to have no problems...
Try downloading a file larger than 1 MB in PIE or Opera...
The issue has NOTHING to do with DCD's work...
Definitly the Radio...
There only problems I have seen with the 2.2X Roms DCD has put out is some issues with installing programs on the storage card...
But if I know DCD that will be fixed rather quickly.
well, this is for dcd and or anyone working with him. any idea when you are going to release a 3.0.2 version?
I'm sure you are working on fixing some of the bugs found in the 3.0.1 version. i am not like the ppcgeeks kitchen due to the fact that we cant costumize it like we can yours. i like what i have done with yours and cant wait for an update.
for example...
1. i like how i can go into the option file and change the "true/false" so that it is always set to what i want when i cook a rom.
2. i like how i can edit your sys/dcd to give myself a little more "codyppc" settings
3. i like how i can edit the initflashfiles.dat OEM/OEM_Lang_0409 folder to get ride of the office in start menu.
4. i could go on and on.
there is nothing wrong with the ppcgeeks kitchen, it's just not my kitchen. once you get use to something it just grows on ya.
Thanks dcd (and who ever else is helping you if there is)
if you are like me.... reply back so dcd knows we love him.
whats wrong with 3.0.1 ?

You know what's wrong? Its by a Red Wings fan!
I went to the Columbus/Detroit game on Sat.. worst.. hockey game ever for Columbus.. 4 shots on goal in the first period? Are you kidding me.. Maybe I should go back being a Rangers fan since I am from NY and living in Columbus.
Anyways, good job on the kitchen DCD.. I used a lot of your variations and can't wait to see what you have coming.
After having a few phone issues on 3.0.0, switched to 3.0.1 and all is good-- gps, bluetooth, wifi, email, MMS, PIE all great, with 20MB free. However, noticed today that there is an update to WM6.1 in the latest No2Chem build, so while there is nothing wrong with the current build, would like to see it keep getting better!

1. wifi coming on by itself sometimes.

These are all issues probably caused by people who don't really know what they're doing and flashing wrong, or not setting up their phones correctly. There's absolutely nothing wrong with 3.0.1...everything works perfectly, and there are tons of people who feel the same way.
Good work dcd
battery drain issues...
No2Chem's ROM's are great, but I agree that DCD is the BEST so I second the vote for a new DCD Kitchen off of the WM 6.1 5.2.19202.1.0.0 build.
battery drain issues?
my battery works fine. i can go 2 to 3 days without charging it, and i use lots of data and gps.... i don't know, maybe you guys have defective hardware or something...all i know is that if it's not draining everyone's battery, then it's not the kitchen.

Couldn't agree more. No2Chem makes great stuff and I thought it couldnt get any better until I tried DCD's kitched. Runs even more stable, and has more memory.
The only thing better than DCD's rom would be DCD's rom updated to the new build!
(I actually have no ideas what the new build does, but the version number has increased and therefor it must be better )

as far as customizable, the ppcgeeks kitchen is more customizable imo, and you can edit the option.xml just the same way as you can in dcd's.
DCD, everything looks great that you have done here. I have been unable to locate a tutorial or directions on how to install and use your kitchen. I was able to get the olipro 2.40 unlocker and sprint 3.35 rom installed on my altell ppc6800 last night but I accidentally let the sprint customizations run. I was able to get the locker and flash everything back to my altell oem rom and my phone works againl. Before I try again, is there already an altell rom that has been made by you or anyone else that should be run after I stop the sprint customizations from running or can someone point me in the right direction on how to actually use the kitchen to make my own that has all the software etc.. Thanks, mr.ellsworth
everything is flawless with my 3.01 build so far.
The only thing I'd like to see if what the difference is between 19199 and 19202, like a changelog or something
There may be a workaround, but HTC Task Manager (which is included with 3.0.1) does not close apps when the X button is pressed. Also, there is no "Quick Menu" on the Today screen even though that option is selected.
Anybody else having these problems with HTC Task Manager (v2.0.30995)?
Thanks!

blame the radio. i recently traveled in EvDO coverage and finally saw what everyone is complaining about. my battery would only last 6-8 hours (and my EV coverage was fine) unless i forced 1x only. but my power settings have not changed in months. im sorry, i wish i could be of more help, but i believe htc to be at fault and dont know if theres anything i can do.

http://216.139.227.226/alltel/RUU_T...9_RS_TITAN_Alltel3.42.50_NV2.02_PPST_Ship.exe
New Alltel ROM, still not posted, but comes from official source. Haven't tried it out, so don't know if GPS is enabled or not.
**CORRECTION: GPS IS ENABLED. THIS IS A GPS ENABLED ROM. TRIED IT WITH A TEST 6800**
Flash at your own criteria, not responsible for blah blah blah.
Credit to readzzz for giving me the idea of the rom name .
wait, wait. an official 3.42.50 for the titan?! sounds like someone needs to rip it out ;-)
NBHgen anyone? maybe I will...

Don't Ask Don't Tell my friend....
I think it's 01_GSM.nb that was extracted from Special_4350.nbh, but I have to question it because it's named "GSM" and not CDMA... Anyone feeling like a guinea pig to flash this? lol

The radio is not typically in the special.nbh file. It's likely to be the 785.nb file which is extracted from TITAN_ship.nbh
Dang...finally. I wonder if this is the final release. I can't wait to try it out. Think I'll install it as soon as i get home from work. Anybody else try this out yet? How is it?
seems to work ok has acrsoft 5.0.71.33 in it will give it the run thru and let you guys know.
Download link is not working for me....Hrmmm!
Nevermind....Save_as worked
I flashed it last night. Seems to be running fine. I'm not sure if this is the final copy. But I guess we'll find out when it gets released. I do like it though.
What is the os version and build?
OS 5.2.19208 (build 19208.1.0.1)
Well flashed it redid the agps for alltel and put on manilla 2d seems to be working pretty smooth thus far
Quick look on this one. 25MB free RAM after the flash. As stated GPS works out of the box. Took a good minute to sync up to the sats but it worked fine with Google Maps. Feels pretty fluid moving through the OS. Other than that pretty standard 6.1 look and feel if you're used to a custom rom.

correct me if im wrong, which is most likely but kewl... wouldnt this be a downgrade from the 3.56 and 3.57 Rom versions. even the MS number is lower.

I believe 3.52.671.9 means this is Alltel's 10th revision of a 3.52 base. The release is older, but the revision is newer. A couple of the drivers seem preferable to 3.56/3.57.

After struggling all day to try to get the 3.42.50 radio installed on my Alltel phone, I found this RUU last night. It installed just beautifully. GPS worked out of the box. WM6.1. Updated radio. So far, all is great!

Nice to see you back DCD!
Currently I'm running dcd 3.2.6 with gc's gps fix applied. If I flash to nueROM pre3, will the gps stick? Will I lose any other features like MMS or something else?

You will lose everything if you flash a new ROM. Also, you have to have donated to get nueROMpre3.
I have already donated and was using nueROM on my old XV6800. I started with dcd this time around, but I like nueROM better. Does it support GPS? I remember I couldn't get it working on my last phone.
EDIT:
Also, can MMS work on nueROM? Thanks.

yes, and yes.
Does it have a camera yet?
Yes it does. You can actually switch between modes, so you can be in one mode with the camera and another mode without the camera. Very nice.
Just remember that it is a bleeding edge rom. Expect things not to work.
For example, switching from high to low memory mode yesterday hard reset my device. First time I have had a problem in months, but it is worth noting.
When working it is a very stable and solid rom. Even with the camera enabled it has a good chunk of extra memory.
Yes to GPS and MMS, but for MMS you will have to install the cab, I use GC's from this forum. GPS settings from QPST will stick through hard resets and flashes.
I'm very tempted to try out an ICS ROM and wonder which I should try. Some swear by Onecosmic's ROM saying it's smoother and more stable than Passion. It's 911 and e911 seem to both work but GPS seems to be broken. Passion seems to be getting the most traffic. e911 is broken though 911 works. GPS is way better than Onecosmic, if I understand correctly, but kernel dependent.
Which are you using and why? Or should I wait for more issues to be fixed, e.g. mute/unmute?
I ran Onecosmic's for a while. 2.11 was pretty good. They then produced a 3.1, but didn't bother to change the build.props values from i9000, guaranteeing problems and showing a lack of seriousness in supporting the Vibrant, so I tried the CM9 kang. Build 14 was good, but 15 was terrible (looked like build.props was incorrect), decided to stay with CM7 until an ics rom has CM permissions management. No experience with Passion.
I agree a lot with what cashmundy said. Neither onecosmic nor the cm9 teamhacksung have vibrants and are builing for the I9000 so we are just getting I9000 ports with no true support from the rom dvelopers. Not that either is a bad rom but the Vibrant community is the ugly step kid in the development. Neobuddy and Nelson are building ICS Passion on their Vibrants and supporting it well. Passion is based on cm9 as far as I can tell with Neobuddy working it for the Vibrant. Nelson is constantly trying to improve the kernel and latest is based on rev 3.1.10. Passion has it's bugs and each new version fixes some and regresses on others but it's a Vibrant rom worked on by Vibrant devs and is the most complete IMHO.
I honestly havent tried OC's rom. Been really happy with Neo's Passion. It seems everyone has a different quirk. Some people's GPS works, some don't, some have the mute/unmute bug, some don't. My GPS works AND don't have the mute/unmute bug. One of the lucky few it seems.
ICS Passion v12
I like it a lot after CM dropped further development. It seems to move around faster and is clean. The mute/umute doesn't seem to be an issue for me. Haven't tried GPS except to play with Angry GPS. Seems like I was picking up satlellites, best I could tell. I read something about a unlocked Samsung phone from China not working on 911, but did on 112 (international emergency). I'm beginning to wonder that if Samsung won't share the codes...DOES 911 work on the stock ROMS??? I'm thinking I can live without 911, since my option of returning to the Eclair ROM makes me ill... .
Seems like 911 is broken passion v11 onwards
ICS passion it should be, as cashmundy said, its dedicated to Vibrant. I have working GPS but the Mute/Unmute issues bugs me. I am still on v11 btw.
Both roms are good, I think that passion has more tweaks. Both are stable less mute and unmute bug which is keeping me on trigger 822. But other than that everything else works great. Just irritating that a phone does not do the simplest feature of answering a call correctly.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
how can I put the firmware in order to avoid a bug with the microphone?
In general, there is such of the ICS?
There is a new Onecosmic version out, 4.1. I'm pulling it down to see if the build.props still say i9000 instead of t959.
One important philosophical difference is that Onecosmic is explicitly AOSP and only AOSP, whereas Passion is using some or all of CM9. That's reason enough to choose Passion for me. I'm just waiting for permissions management to get ported.
PS: download of Onecosmic version 4.1 finished, took a look inside with Ghost Commander (must-have tool) and the build.props is correct for T959.
