I'm still messing with this bad boy, and am not sure what else has changed...My friend at Sprint said that they are having issues with RevA at the moment, and have pushed the deployment of the 'official' (to Sprint anyway) rom to March.
however, GPS works with Google Maps, and it acquires the satellites VERY quickly.
I feel like a kid in a candy store, that has some new effing sweet candy that no one has tasted before.
************EDIT**************
For those who waited patiently, here you go.
PLEASE LISTEN TO THIS HOWEVER BEFORE UPGRADING!!!!!!!!
* You MUST have either a stock bootloader or a re-locked bootloader for this to work properly. otherwise, you'll get crashes during the upgrade process. The installer seems a little flakey, so just remember to have the titan_exitbl app if you get stuck in bootloader mode. then, just boot back into your old ROM and try again. you'll get there, mine failed four times before I got it right.
*search for ImCoKeMaN's re-locker on here or ppcgeeks to find the relocker SPL with accompanying titan_exitbl app.

Feel like sharing?
Don't let nonegiven have the ROM. He doesn't deserve it.
Hey there homies...
As I'm not the kind of person to keep things to myself, I will upload a link to this ROM tonight when I get home from work. Would that make all of you feel all warm and fuzzy?
That would be awesome! Unfortunately I have no patience. I NEED new toys : )
Thanks burrito
So this ROM is only intended for Sprint I assume.
Any hope in getting this ported to VZW in the future by anyone who knows what they're doing?

One thing I noticed though, and I don't know if this is something that was just funky with my PC, but I had the RUU crash at 11% twice... I thought it might be something wrong with my bootloader since I had Olipro's on there. I flashed the Re-Locker, and then tried again. It froze on 44% once, and then I tried one final time and it completed totally. YAY!!! It certainly didn't like the combo of dcd's 1.6.7 and olipro 1.20. Or, maybe again, it was something surrounding my PC since it has been running forever. I've never had flashing issues before, so it could be the placebo effect.

Yeah, I would agree. Merely because it finally flashed with no issues. If there was something wrong with the RUU, it wouldn't have ever loaded right? At least that's my logical thinking coming out.
So let me ask you this... Say I install it on my phone, and I want to go back to an official release (i.e. 2.17). All I have to do is run the installation for that ROM and it will rollback?

Same here!!!!.
So i decided i wanted the new radio 3.39.10 so i flashed the leaked sprint rom. Didn't have enough time so I just kept it on my phone for a few days. One thing i noticed with this rom was everything was QUICK. Even icontact was smooth with no lagging or jittery scrolling. I also noticed memory consumption over a days time was very minimal. I would not be under 20mb free after an entire day.
That said, I've always liked dcd's roms and they always seemed faster than sprint roms. So i decided to flash to his newest 3.1.6. At first boot I had 25mb free compared to 22mb free with sprints. That was a plus, but i also noticed with the same applications installed on both that icontact was not smooth on scrolling anymore and my memory usage throughout the day would drop under 20mb easily.
Is it just me or does it seem like the sprint 3.49 rom has graphics acceleration and better memory management?
It's not just you..
everything runs faster on 3.49. Apps respond quicker and fewer hang ups and lock ups as well...

For Test Not For Sale
I installed the leaked Sprint ROM, and I did not have time to test it because I like DCD ROMS, so I tried 3.1.6, but it was not a good experience for me. I kept loosing and gaining signals, at some points it will not get the signal at all.
Till the day it just did not, and all my contacts were erased and my soft keys stopped working. So I reverted back to 3.04 which for me has been the most stable for me, with NO PROBLEM.
But please I have a problem, ever since I tried that Leaked Rom, and Flashed back to DCD 3.0.4, I get the message "FOR TEST NOT FOR SALE" at boot up. How do I get this message off please. I hate seeing that. I have flashed 3 times and it is still there

I'll chime in here too
The newest Sprint rom does seem much faster, I'm not sure if there is a pool size diff or what, but they take about the same ammount of time to boot up, and give or take a meg or two, about the same free mem.. The Sprint rom has a bunch of ugly sprint crap and themes(easily changed) but there is something to be said with having a nice new clean rom. Unfortunatly, I wouldn't use the 3.1.6, it seems to have too many issues with cell sig.... I was happiest on a rom called "________ Sexier Rom" But it had issues w/ AS. So right now, I'm sitting with the Sprint rom again.
You guys never cease to amaze me...
I don't know what probs you guys are having with 3.1.6. but everything works fine for me that sprint rom don't have no pizzaz!
gc14.....add some insight to this if you do not think its true. I'm going by actual usage though and have yet to have a rom as fast as the new sprint one.

This thread should be closed because everything said in it is moot. Since 3.1.1, these roms have been based off 3.49 and cleaned. Any differences are simply placebo.
well someone's acting a bit smug, aren't they.
gc14, many things go into DCD building a custom rom, often much more than just "cleaning up" a leaked rom. He's been in there in the XIP tinkering about which can cause night and day differences as far as performance and free memory from the "stock" leaked Sprint rom.
I'm not agreeing with anyone here (I haven't compared the two roms, right now testing some of no2chem's direct draw from the diamond support), however I felt the need to point out that your comments are neither helpful nor properly informed.
Unless you've conducted a test and posted your own thread about it that we don't know about, I'd write off your comments as mere speculation.
Someone asked for my insight...I gave it to them, period.
I know exactly what goes into building a custom rom. I didn't feel the need to go into all of it in this thread. As far as "tinkering in the XIP" goes, well, we'll just leave it at that.
Don't ask for me to post what I think, then get all bent out of shape when I post the truth. I won't say anything else about it, though trust me, my "speculation" isn't coming from nowhere and is very well informed.

Actually, you were technically asked to explain your cryptic condescending one liners.
You started with "You never cease to amaze me" and "This thread should be closed", without any explanation as if this was the memory leak, bluetooth, or some other bug that already have a million threads dedicated to it.
These are legitimate concerns that whether are placebo or not, deserve to be discussed and analyzed if people are noticing it.

Really? Because if you're saying that nothing has changed from 3.1.1, I really don't think you do. Do you even know what the XIP is, or what changing components into modules means?
I haven't posted in XDA much lately, so I'll give you the benefit of thinking I'm a n00b. Since it appears we haven't met, I'll assume you also didn't know that dcd and I go back to before he was releasing roms, and we've kept in touch behind the scenes, often part of a group that gets to test and debug before he releases new ones. Dcd has told me what he's done to these releases, and I can honestly say that he's changed it enough to barely resemble the leaked rom, far less match its performance verbatim.
Your comments are not only baseless, but juvenile.
I recommend that you control your sarcastic tone and don't post unless it is somehow constructive to the thread. Otherwise, you're going to piss off some people who won't want to help you when the time comes.
As far as whether or not this is true (dcd's being slower than leaked "stock"), I don't know since I haven't performed any tests. It is possible that something he's tweaked to free up memory has effected performance elsewhere in the rom (similar things have happened in earlier roms). The drivers should be similar, however, so its most likely not an acceleration issue.

there could be a slight difference due to cache sizes. people wanted more free ram, so i reduced cache. this reduces speed (but i didnt think it was noticable personally)
i did benchmark the 3.35 oemxipkernel vs 3.49 and found that 3.35 was actually a tiny bit faster, so i'm still using it.

Lol ive seen some of your posts, and you clearly hate Android so I know your def trying to find an answer. The HTC tilt2 on tmobile is a winmo phone. Apon running an .exe that shuts off winmo, you can dual boot into either OS. My theory is that if an HTC phone can have its main OS shut down, and run another OS (android) from the SD card, then couldn't an HTC android phone (eris) somehow have android shut off, and then dualboot either winmo from the SD or Android. It seems/sounds like a plausible theory, and really is just the reverse of something that can already be done, but want I need is insight from both OS's devs as to how or why this can work, if at all, and how or where to start. If it can and its an issue of time, id be happy to pay or help in any way possible. I could care less if I mess my phone up, I just want to see a dualboot function for HTC android phones. Doesn't even have to be winmo necessarily (although preferred lol), I've even seen some ppl trying to work on Ubuntu for Eris. The possibilities are endless, its just a matter of figuring out whos capable of starting a project like that.

OK, so I haven't posted much in this forum in general because I haven't had a need to really. I find what I need read and move on. But because of that I can't post in the developer section to ask this question before I flash this ROM so I will ask it here. So I'm going to take the plunge and flash Newts NOS m7 ROM. But after reading about 60% of a 949 page thread I do have some confusion. There were some updates and patches I'm going to call them for a lack of better term. I don't need to run any type of beast mode kernel. So what patches or fixes do I need to add in order for everything to work on this ROM? And I'm choosing this one over the alpha Sense 5 ROM based on data working with Verizon and not working with the alpha. At least nothing has been posted that it's working in all aspects now. I appreciate the help and hope that I can be rocking the NOS rom by tonight before I go to bed.

3.0.7 is the only thing you need to have as of today it contains everything, patches are minor small updates and newtoroot usually will tell you what patch you need when they are released.

So you are saying that the kernel patch, the call patch, and the other patch are all included in the 3.0.7 build and I shouldn't worry about them even though people are having issues with the ROM in certain areas such as what the patches fix? I'm asking for clarification because I can't afford to screw up my one and only phone. Besides Viper Rom this Nos 7 Rom seems to be the best out there for what I want until the update comes out. This is me being cautious and doing my research. I don't want to sound like a jerk. Just trying to have everything lined up right.

I'm not a first time rooter or flasher of ROM's. This one just has me timid because even the latest posts in the thread of the ROM is saying there are data issues. So I hope you can see where my concern is coming from. I'll flash it tomorrow and see what happens from there though.
OK, so I just took the plunge and did the flash. One problem I have right off the bat is that Gmail keeps closing and failing. I can't have that because all of my most important e-mails come in thru that. So is there a fix or do I just have to go back to stock?

Never heard of that issue. I would just re-wipe and re-install the rom.

Did you even wipe data or did you just install the rom and hope that you wouldn't have to do anything about your already installed apps?
Seriously??!! Oh just install the ROM it's totally fine. Yeah well it's not fine. GMAIL is broke and I HAVE TO HAVE IT WORK!! Come on people help me out!!

You won't get any help if you don't tell us what you did..... I have never heard of ANY rom that gmail doesn't work.
and YELLING AT PEOPLE DOESN'T HELP EITHER.
Well, it wasn't meant to come out as yelling. And I didn't do anything but install the ROM just like everyone kept telling me to do. Oh and the weather on the lock screen is broke too. It always says no weather data available.
Well nothing like feeling even more of an ass. I never saw the replies I had already gotten from you guys. I guess my page wouldn't refresh. I'll wipe it and re flash it on I guess. I did all the stuff I needed to do before flashing it so I"m in the clear on that one. I'm not sure as to what all the extra apps that I've never seen before are but I'm ok with that for now. Oh, um isn't there suppose to be a swipe screen to wake feature on this ROM? I can't find it.
So G-mail is back to working now. I reflashed the ROM and did a cache and dalvik cache wipe. I also did the lock screen patch and volume to wake patch. I still don't have weather on the lock screen though. And the little click sounds that are turned on for me for when I unlock or lock the screen....yeah I can't hear them.
So, everything works now. Go figure....well minus those sounds that for some reason I actually really really liked having turned on before I flashed this. Maybe they will just start working again too.

So, in other words, all of your problems were self inflicted.
Do the flashing process properly next time and you won't have these issues.
Nope not self inflicted. I did the flash exactly the way I was suppose to. Not sure why flashing it a second time worked but it did. Now to figure out how my nanddroid back up got deleted.....or if it's just hidden and I don't know where it is. I use TWRP recovery by the way.
