Kaos's **** Sprint Custom rom Build 420 Take 2

[mastermarc22]

So i've had this rom for a while and for a while all was well. Yesterday I opened up internet explorer and google loaded, but no matter what address i went to or typed in it just reloaded google.

So i restarted it, and it gave me the tricolor bootloader. Reflashing it I was able to get it to boot again, only for it to go back to the bootloader after a reset again. After reflashing it AGAIN, it stayed for a bit but there was no signal to the towers. Not only that, but the contacts and phone were "gone". Clicking the green phone button does nothing. Data connection was still there and still worked.

Also, unable to sync or connect to the computer.

And then this morning it brought me back to the tricolor screen.

I went ahead and ordered a replacement phone since i have the insurance and i wanted a new battery and my usb port was messed up anyway, but i was wondering if you guys had any ideas, i could just turn it into a wifi device if nothing else.

I would run the IOTA in the EXTENDED ROM section! I would install that cab. soft reset. then go to start/setting/phone/then click the internet, then click get settings. Let that do its configuration. then when its done try opening the internet browser again and search normally.

well laso the charging port problem leads to what you are going through..... and the iota cab would be your best bet as jew said.

[kaos]

the charge port issue comes from i bet not using the adapter.we all have done that and learned from it

correct and agreed!

[mastermarc22]

what adapter would this be? I certainly as hell don't want to go through this again. Is it that angled thing i've seen?

Anyway, after the reflash and while the phone was temporarily working (not for calling) internet and other data services worked normally, so the iota cab probably won't do anything.

Its probably just my phone bein messed up, just wanted to see if anyone had any experience like this and was able to fix it so maybe i could use it as more than an unreliable wifi device.

the adaptor he is discussing is a splitter that will go from what looks like a regular Mini-USB male cable into the correct male cable for the phone. If you have the box for it, its included in it!

[mastermarc22]

ah yes i have that, i stopped using it once i realized regular usb fits, but yeah i suppose it would make it less prone to breakage.

I STRONGLY reccomend using the spliter as I mysef learned the hardway, yes the regular will fit and charge, but over time you KILL the PINS inside the phone where the cable grabs charge from.!

yea its for the mogul! what ROM did you have before you flashed? Did you unlock with olpiro unlocker 2.40 then Flash to Kaos Take 2? we need more info!

[GokuSS3]

Recently Flashed this rom , noticed the other day when i going some and gonna use Sprint Nav that it is not on there.... There anyway to download it or should i just go with one of the many Navigations apps out there ?

[mfrankl6]

I want to say thanks to the whole SPJ crew. I uploaded the Koas's **** Sprint Custom rom Build 420 Take 2 when he released it and it is the best I have seen and used so far. You guys have skills to put these together so well. I like the ease of flashing the roms so you don't get stuck with the factory crap! SPJ is where its at.

Couple days ago I tried to upload this rom again. It was a bad flash and I got stuck on the splash screen. Usually I use the wmwifirouter on my phone to give me internet any where.
This was not the case I flew into a new city no wifi points anywhere without having to pay. I found a nearest starbucks location searched the thread for unbricking ppc 6800 and you guys came through again. Unbricked my phone and reflashed I am back on the net and I have this cool ass rom on my phone again.

[iamdasht19]

as long as you radio is above 3.35 you will be fine.... any lower of a radio and you wont have the capability to use gps and risk bricking your device from having it to not any more.... (screen wont turn back on after goes to sleep.)

[junkhead01]

well i unlocked my phone, took it out of the boot loader, ran the RUU with the kaos take 2 nbh file in it. It restarted, now it wont load. Its stuck on the screen with the kid giving me the finger. Anyone else have this problem, or a solution to it?

when your phone boots what does it say next to the R: in the lower right corner in red.

[junkhead01]

do i perhaps hard reset after flashing? haha

[iamdasht19]

how about you answer my question above cause i bet you have the wrong radio on your phone meaning you have a non gps radio

[junkhead01]

radio is 3.42.02, i thought i needed 3.35 or higher correct

[kaos]

“ Originally Posted by junkhead01 ”

try take 3...this is old bro.

[junkhead01]

that was my next step, on the take 3 thread it was suggested that if you didnt have take 2 youd have to do something which i had no desire to do.

naw you can download roms right off the bat.... go to the roms area and use the links like rapidshare and magaupload and others to download the rom. remember you need to unlcok your device using the hardspl unlcoker before flashing a custom rom
