There is a reason it's not out yet, it's not even close to being released yet. There are problems that are being worked on in the ROM update. I can tell you that you probably won't see an update officialy released until maybe the end of march. How do I know this you ask? I am an engineer with sprint. I myself have the Mogul and am frustrated with the lack of GPS etc.
There's no lack of GPS anymore But there is a lack of being able to send pictures!
update
If your an engineer with Sprint...tell us what the holdup is.
I'd love to know what can be so baffleing to the entire company that months and months of work can't figure out.

If you're an actual engineer with Sprint, maybe you could tell us what we will be expecting from this new ROM, besides Rev A and GPS. Are the rumors running around here true about:
Windows 6.1
Sprint TV
etc.
Please enlighten us.......... It's driving us INSANE!
So, come on...level with us Chubz.
You're running DCD 2.x.x too, aren't you?!?!?

I'm thinking about moving to DCD's WM6.1 ROM because I'm so tired of waiting for the official release. The only thing stopping me is the SD card not working yet for it.
gimme a break this dude comes in here and spews out some garble about how hes an engineer COUGH COUGH he dont even know about the gps that WE all have already. Dude go somewhere else and play, none of us in here fell off the potato truck last knight. in fact I think i hear your mom calling you.

If the mem card problem is stopping you then use no2chems, he had some issues with the mem card in an earlier build but the new one works just fine

you have the gps update from a "leaked" or cooked ROM
Anyway the reason for the holdup is that they need it to run stable. Obvioudly it will run the new apps fine, but then the speaker might not work etc...
the official rom will obviously have:
GPS
Sprint TV
6.1
and supposedly a better task manager. Also help out the memory leak problem.
REV A
The sprint touch may get the GPS and REV A update first
It's nice to see Sprint being so concerned and cautious with their update. But then again, you work for Sprint, so shouldn't your statement be, "...we need it to run stable..." ?
Anyway, in the immortal words of Wayne, "Yeah... right... and monkeys might fly out my butt!"

i think DCDs 2.2.6 fixed the SD card issue, although my understanding it was only a problem if you used encryption (my SD card worked on all dcd roms)

"I'll believe that when my s*&t turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbert!"
Honestly, we know how this will go.. you claim it'll have SprintTv, then when it doesn't come out with Sprint TV, then one of 2 things will happen...
1) You don't reply to questions directed toward you because you're full of bologna
2) You do reply, and give us some bologna about how Sprint decided to not include it for some oddball reason.
If Sprint TV really does get put on a ROM in the future, then i'll give you respect, but until it happens, you can't just come into a community spouting off fiction hoping that people will think you're cool.. Honestly. Like i said, if you are who you say you are, then you'll get respect when what you say happens!

I thought the Touch didnt have the GPS antenna? Or is it just Wi-Fi?

I can also confirm that I had no problems with DCD's ROM...
Back on topic, since all the good quotes have been taken, I'll believe this when I see it. I mean, it would be nice, but the day the OEM's give us a good ROM (that can't be made better by the likes of DCD, No2Chem, etc) is the day I stop using all devices and move to a cabin in the mountains without power...
The Touch may get updated first? I'm beginning to wonder if the next official Mogul update comes pre-installed in a Mogul 2.
First post here (from my Mogul) but long time lurker. Just running 2.17 but I'm tempted to install a dcd. My main concern is the radio stability as I like to stream alot of audio.
chubzilla, you had to know when you posted who you were, you would take alot of shots from people on this site. There are alot of angry people here that have been waiting for sprint and HTC to get off there butts and fix the problems with the mogul.
I guess what I would like to see is an official response from sprint about the status of the ROM Update other than "Additionally, HTC is currently developing a separate ROM update which enables the EV-DO Rev. A and GPS capabilities that are already built into the Mogul hardware. Sprint and HTC plan to make this software ROM available in early 1Q 2008."
Outdated information like this just inflames customers.

HI guys, I'm an engineer in TF2. Someone is zappin my sentury.
Beta ROM updated 04/09/2009 3:00PM Eastern Time
This ROM is pretty much like my ROM here but with the complete 21042 XIP and SYS folder ported over from the shipped Topaz ROM.
As usual this is the first build so there are bound to be bugs. Please do not report any TF3D2 bugs, just bugs about everything else
At0mAng 5.4 Beta Preview

You will need the flashing program since it is not in RAR file. It is attached to this post.

Battery
First i the Like to thank you for your work.
I just flashed my touch pro with this rom today and it seems great, but i just detected a problem with the top bar battery icon.
The icon is always like the touch pro is on external power, even when the phone is running on battery.
I know this is a beta, but can someone tell-me if its possible to solve this problem so i cant have the percentage battey icon when the phone run on battery.
All Phone functions seem to work fine,
Thank you

Thanks. I have noticed that too and tracking it down.
Has anyone tested the Bluetooth on this yet?
i used BT stereo to listen to sirius and worked perfect for me, but i did not have a phone call at all though. i ran the rom all afternoon and didnt notice any problems.

So is it ready to go live? Input?
Update
ROM has been updated.
Now with working Rhodium Comm Manager and Topaz Wizards.
Mechanical Changes
and some other tweaks
Things that need to be tested are GPS, BlueTooth and signal strength. Please leave feedback. I think it is ready to go final and just need some input since I can not test all functions.
Thanks!
Thanks for the update, downloading now. The previous version was very stable, and the only problem that I ran into was that my battery was always at 100%, which is slightly different then the other battery problem listed earlier. I will let you know if this one has the same issue or not.

Please let me know. I believe I fixed the other issue and the one you just listed should be corrected too.

Nice to see you, again...

HI ALL,
On modaco 3.2 the GPS is not working at least for google map but meteo is ok?!
And for All 2.1 ROMS we have the green effects problem on recording video and photos?!
And also, not working playback videos for some of them!!
Plz guyz tell me i m not crazy lol cause i dont find any solution and I dont know now which rom is definitively really stable and full working.
mcr3.1 is stable and everything that is in there works. same goes for 3.2, but it lacks a few things since it is an operator tailored rom (namely there would be the "2g only" switch in settings, not sure about others). gps is working fine in both, if you have problems reflash your radio.
there is no bugfree 2.1 rom yet, as we are still waiting for the official release from htc.
if i say that this is the wrong category i will get bashed, so i'm not gonna say it. just gonna point out to you that there is a q&a subforum, which might be the better place for these types of posts.
Going from a 2.1 ROM to a 1.5 ROM appears to break GPS in some cases.
This can be fixed by reflashing the radio.

THX a lot
i didnt say it is working lol cause i didn t try yet but i mean if you say so, so it is working and i ll try like that.
If you just coul imagine how many times i changed roms on hero looool within 5 days!!!! you ld become crazy.
BYE
Hi all,
I have a weird problem with 2.1 ROMs. On most of them each time I access the camera with Camera application or any other one the requires camera, the phone reboots. It's not happening all the time, I noticed that this will most likely happen after I don't touch the phone for a period of time.
Is this happening to you too or it's my phone? I tried to format the card which I thought maybe has the file system corrupt.
Another strange thing is that the phone is not rebooting if it's connected to PC. This means I can't get a logcat with the error.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
iv had the same mate dont do it all the time but happened to me about 3 times i think im new to all of this i didnt want to wait for the update lol have you done all the updates for the rom ?
yep, I also have the latest radio.
So far Legendroid rom is the most stable. Looks like putting the camera at 3 MP makes it stable. Not sure, maybe it's just an impression
I heard that this is happening because of the camera drivers, and could be fixed once HTC releases the official 2.1 ROM for hero.
-A.
i have never had it do it since i have been using villian 4.0 legend beta 2 with the most up todate radio and i haver done all the updates.
.....to having a working Gingerbread rom for the Vibrant? Is this rom going to contain the keys to getting a fully functional build?
One can only hope.
Sent from my T959 using XDA App
We already have 3+ gingerbread roms from a month ago... Why do you want a build that will take longer? The devs can probably put the features from it to ours but that may be it, the remove service.jar won't work I dont think so.
according to the samsung site Vibrant is to be supported through a 2.3 gingerbread release, but then that is the Samsung site and they probably release 2.3 after we all moved on to something else. One of the problems most phone manufacturers of android have discovered, is how quickly the upgrading demand is. They did not anticipate that we the public would get so savvy so fast.
But My guess 2.3 release will be in Aug-Sept after the S2 release
Official i900 rom rolling out already!!!

"Fully Functional"
Nope, never.
Most of our GPS sucks, and if GPS isn't included its not a "fully functional" rom.
so in theory, no we will never have it.

GPS works fine for some people, even without the hardware fix. So don't say we'll never have it, unless you have some insider info the rest of us don't have. This release probably won't get us any closer, but who's to say we won't get a 2.3 release for our phones. Samsung isn't as horrible at updates as we used to think. Most phones released prior didn't see it past one major update. Samsung has pushed out two major updates for a phone that's coming up on its 1st birthday. Can't say the same for many other OEMs.

I didn't say GPS doesnt work for ALL, but be truthful, most of the GPS of Vibrants do not work, and probably wont work until you do the hardware fix or get another vibrant made at a earlier date.
I wasn't talking about updates directly from Samsung, and i've never questioned their update-mentality. I receive updates on my Samsung TV/Blu-Ray player i bought a year ago still.
I was talking about a "FULLY FUNCTIONAL" rom.
Most of the roms we already have, GPS doesn't work for most, so what makes you think it'll randomly work when we get 2.3? A Software update isn't going to do much except make it about 50 ft accuracy or something like that.

GPS doesn't work on the new 2.3 roms because we don't have drivers, it's a software issue. That will ABSOLUTELY change with an official release. For those with working GPS,(such as me, others who have done the hardware fix, and people who got lucky with revised Vibrant hardware) this WOULD be a fully functional rom.
I didn't say the update would magically fix a hardware problem, but the fact is the GPS issues have nothing to do with the rom, only the hardware. However with CM7, it is an issue with the rom. That's why GPS works for no one, when it worked fine on 2.2 for those without hardware issues. There is a difference between a crippled rom and crippled hardware.
