Alltel Touch Vogue

[DannaTaylor]

Hi,...New here,

I have made the leap into modifying my phone's software enough to download "RUU_Vogue_4350_ALLTEL_WWE_3.10.671.1_RS3.42.30_NV2 .02_PRL30031_SHIP.exe" from Software.alltel.com. Was this update supposed to "unlock" my GPS? If not, does anyone know how I can accomplish this? Once I get that going, who knows, I might go crazy and utilized some of the fabulous ROMs you all are offering!

Thanks :)

Yes that rom update is the official Alltel wm 6.1/ GPS update. It also has a 30 day trial for Alltel nav.

dont forget to go to settings>phone>location settings and turn it to "on"
And if your feeling real adventurous go over to ppcgeeks and try shadow-techs "super fast lock on" AGPS fix. Then download google maps and click use gps and you should be good.

P.S ( AGPS fix not nessissary to make it work, just gives you faster locks)

Goodluck!

Thank you both for your advice! I didn't realize I had to turn it on under settings or that I received the new program (alltel navigator). I am on my way now! I haven't tried the fast lock update you mentioned, but I did install the unlocker so I can give some new looks a shot. Any recommendations for roms to try?

Has anyone had any luck with the official 6.1 ROM and getting the internal GPS to work with a 3rd party program (specifically iGO 8)???

Mine works perfectly with tomtom7.

Conflippers Alltel ROMs are the best by far, you can check em out over at ppcgeeks.com

With this update mentioned above..........I have already flashed to a custom ROM, do I have to flash back to the official alltel ROM before running this update? I have flashed to several REV A roms and can't get my GPS to lock or anything? have tried EVERYTHING, believe me...........

thanks in advance for any help!

I have just completed upgrading my OS to the latest 6.1 Pro and installed Conflippers Alltel ROM (Great ROM) however now mortplayer comes up freezes and then exits. Loaded TCPMP and it just crashes. I use NCH Pocket dictate and it had numerous errors on (Alltel) WM6.1 / LBS Update – Version 3.10.671.1 but after the Conflipper ROM, it works great. Is there an issue with WM6.1 and Mortplayer that anyone knows how to fix? Also, I did update Esmertec Jbed 20081203.2.1.cab that fixed the Java issues with the earlier version.

You should try out nfsfans roms here, imo
they are the best out there. They have all the new
touch flo features and are very stable.
He also does a very good job updating and supporting them.

+1 for NFSFAN's roms

Another vote for NFSFAN's rom. Only thing not working for me with alltel is mms.
