Forum Description - Mogul, XV6800 General

Can someone change the description of this forum from
"Also known as: Sprint Mogul (PPC-6800)"
to
"Also known as: Sprint Mogul (PPC-6800), Verizon XV6800"
It was confusing and worrisome when I first got here and started looking at ROMs and Kitchens because I don't have a Mogul, I have a XV6800.
It might clear some things up for new arrivals...

Don't discriminate then...
What about people on other carriers? Bell PPC6800, TelUs P4000 I think it's called, etc...
If you're gonna change it, change it right the first time

Agreed! I didn't know about the Bell one and I wasn't convinced that the 4000 was the 6800, but if that's accurate, by all means include them.

Also US Cellular PPC6800 (Ours is from StarCom or whatever their OEM name is)
BTC

Maybe they could make it
Also Known as: Mogul, PPC6800, XV6800, P4000
(BTW Scrawny I hope you don't mind that I used your sig as a template, please and thank you!)

[CLOSED][Samsung SCH-i760 ROM] What would be best???

*THIS "PROJECT" IS CLOSED ON MY PART!*

Samsung SCH-i760 ROM
**UPDATE 03/10/08**​
I have found some useful tools to help me accomplish this, but still have some things left to find. Any help would be awesome, first I need a way to find what I can remove (useless files that take up space) and most importantly where I should to start to make this work. I'm pretty sure the forums will be closed later today, so if you could email if your able to assist me I would appreciate it!
What do you think?​
Hey everybody, I've been browsing this forum numerous times in the past couple of weeks looking to customize my i760 and haven't found much on it for upgrading it's performance. It seems that not many users have this phone, so I'm thinking of creating a ROM for this device.
It will probably take me some time, being this will be my first time creating anything for a PPC.
I'm asking for some help for this:
a) From fellow i760 users to get some input on what might be the best items for the ROM.
b) Also from advanced users on the best way to approach this creation.
All help will be very much appreciated.
I'd like to have some contribution to this forum, seeing how my phone has been completely customized from developers on this site. Big Thanks to all of you out there whos software I am using! You all have done a great job, I appreciate your time and hard work for it.
What are your all's thoughts on this?
Thanks in advance.
Any question you can email me @ jtisr241 @ aim dot com.

I had the i760. I got rid of it because of the lack or roms.
And Your are right there are no roms out there, its not because people dont have it, but its something with the way Samsung makes their roms. It's not as flexible with as the HTC devices.
Thanks for the info, I still have a ton of research to do before I look into the development, I'll keep that in mind hopefully I can find a way around it.
hey help for all phones would be cool

I'm not sure what compatibility the ROM will have, another thing I'm learning.
I would love to see a rom that does not include the d-day and all the get it now and vzw branded software there under WM6.1 with the threaded MMS of 6.1 and the Palm threaded SMS. But, that is just a pipe dream, so I will settle for just a software update.
Thank you for your effort sir.

Thanks, that's what I hear, hopefully once I figure out all the odds and ends to ROM's I can better understand how this is configured.
I second the vote for a rom that does not have the "extra" garbage including that useless picsel browser thing. An end button deactivator (comes in handy to "accidentally" hang up on the wife, but most of the time it's a pain in the ass), a built-in S2U2-like app, built-in touchscreen inteface (ifonz-like I guess). Overclocking.
Overall better memory use, power use, touchscreen use, end deactivator (tried AE, it hated my i760!!)
Update: Oh you know what I'd really like to see - one touch access to contacts, then particular category. The thing I miss most from my cell phone is pressing one button which calls up MY contact list, not the thousands of contact in Outlook. So to recap press a soft key, get the personal contacts list category.
what is the good word?
yea there's def. not a ton of support for the i760; but i've heard that there will be an update to wm6.1 for it so that should satisfy alot of us owners if its true
I hope theres a 6.1 Rom!!
I hear there is and Verizon will have it for download for the i760 on there web site when they finish there part of it.

760 for High speed Internet Bluetooth connection
Hey does anyone have any luck using the 760 as a celluar modem? I am using PDANet to open the profile and I connect without issue but I can only stay connected for a very short time usually less then one minute.
I have also been all over this site and I am looking for a ROM and there does not seem to be much of anything available for this device. Has anyone had any success with the ROM or any update that would let me use this device reliably with my laptop. I am not sure if it is Verizon or a setting on the phone but it is killing me.
Thanks for any suggestions.

I just ordered a i760 so i can help.
i say no iphone interface, its not that good i dont see why people want to copy it.
Alright, it seems there won't be an update anytime soon from Verizon, so I'll try to get something accomplished here, it seems all I do is work sometimes. Anyways, I'm still messing with apps and plugins to see what I want to build here. As soon as I can figure which I want I'll post the news.
Any suggestions on what should be included?

i760 Rom Dump
@ TheChampJT
I've been watching this thread for a bit now. At the same time I have been digging deep into my i760.
I was finally able to use itsutils (from here: http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html ) to run the following commands without errors:
pdocread
pmemmap
pmemdump 0x80000000 0x02000000 rom.nb
That last one gave me a 32Mb file obviously titled "rom.nb". I was feeling all uber l33t until I realized I have no clue what to do now. I am trying to decompile the file I dumped with the perl script that Willem (aka itsme) posted on his RAPI tools site. I am trying to compile the perl script in WinXP, because that's the OS I dumped the rom.nb file with. Should I boot into linux (fedora 8 or Backtrack3beta is all I got) to run the perl script? I haven't tried much of anything with it yet because I just dumped the rom.nb file late last night. However, any advice would be much appreciated.
I think my i760 is CID unlocked, because the first time I tried to run pdocread I got an error that said "Have you CID or application unlocked your device?". When I was able to run pdocread, I assumed I had somehow CID unlocked my device. But I have no way to tell for sure whether its CID unlocked or not. Its not like there's a popup window on the i760 that says "You've CID unlocked you device!!" So that's my second question, how do I know if I CID unlocked my device?
I've been hacking away at this for a solid 12days now Well, more like a month or so. I always peek into my new toy's registry as soon as I get it and make a few changes here and there to see what happens. I've run the Windows Mobile Security Configuration Tool and set my profile's security to "off". I made some changes to the reg entries under the policies entry. I've also done the whole **33284 then set to DM then reboot and set data connection to Modem Through USB, connected my i760 and installed the drivers for the Samsung modem in that mode (they are different from the MCCI drivers and modem set up). As you can probably tell, I operate on a "try a small hack, then see what happens, repeat" basis.
So that's where I'm at right now. Probably TMI for you, or anyone else reading this, but I am trying to put out as much info/knowledge as I can.
Obviously I am willing to help get a working, easy to use, cooked rom. Let me know if you want any of the files I have pulled off my device or any of the tools or dll's that I have found on the web, or any of the print outs I got from the itsutils cmd line tools.
Ta Then,
Alqui
You can PM me here at XDA or over at PDAPhoneHome, that is unless you think I'm a total ****tard, then don't PM me anywhere.
T9 for the front.

Tethering Infomation?

Hey folks, I have read and see various posts and articles on tethering seen people mention that the data usage is hidden when you run one of the custom roms such as DCD's. I was just curious how exactly this works? and how safe is it? This is not really something I plan to do but more of possibility for the future if something is workable of course. I am currently with TELUS as my provider using the HTC p4000. (6800 with a stupid telus name)

Getting rid of Sprint but keeping phone.

Hi,
I have run the Vogue_unlocker_MFG_2.31.exe and the phone seems to have survived (it's a MP6900SP). Now, I want to get rid of the Sprint bias. The phone keeps asking me for an Unlock Code (authentication code) when using ##2539#. I need this and the PRL for Viva in order to use the phone here, in the Dominican Republic.
I was thinking, however, since I don't really need any of the Sprint rubbish that is included in their ROM, does anyone have a cleaner ROM WM 6.1 with GPS that will sort of bypass the authentication code problem?
I hope my rambling makes sense to someone. Thanks in advance for your help.
WMT
Added: Almost there. The issue is addressed at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361144. But I still need the Viva ROM for the Vogue (MP6900SP). I can't seem to find it on the forum, although there are a lot of references to it. Help, please.
Could you just set it up with the code using the Sprint ROM, then flash to a custom ROM that can't use the phone codes?
Not quite sure what you mean. I have the latest version of the Sprint ROM on it now. I have written to Sprint to get the codes, but I hear they can be quite surly about giving them out.

Please delete

You shouldnt make two Posts in a ROW with 2 different problems. Or at least as it seems. One post you are talking about not being on Sprint Service yet and need a PRL I knew that there are plenty of QPST differences between Alltel and Sprint so I figured I would help you out..
So you are smart enough to program the PST and QPST settings but not smart enough to track down a Sprint PRL that works for you?
Makes no sense.
Now onto the other thread, the one you supposedely got help in.. You are talking the same thing in a different way, so please dont make consecutive threads with conflicting statements.

Japanese on Imagio

Does anybody know how I can get my phone to view/write in Japanese? There's no option in my regional settings and a friend told me to come here. Any help would be awesome, thanks!
My suggestion would be to look into HTC or Verizon (or perhaps your carrier) for a Japanese ROM.
Needless to say once the Imagio ROM cooking gets going you're bound to find more information.
P.S Welcome to the forums, please make sure you've read the Forum Rules and you're pretty much guaranteed to enjoy your stay here.
I've already checked with HTC and after not understanding my question several times, I think they finally got it and they don't have anything. So I was hoping someone knew where a crack or something was. Not being able to read Japanese isn't going to help me on a global phone I bought to take to Japan.
Thanks though. If anyone else has info or suggestions, I'd appreciate them.
CE-Star is made by Chinese company, but it works for the Japanese language.
Please google for the CE-Star, you can get information.
A very nice person is providing the software
blog.g4team.com/?p=734
My review: For using the CE-Star, we can write/read in IE, Opera, Outlook, but it does not work for any text message.
