Things I have tried:
http://wiki.ppchaven.com/index.php?title=Pocket_PC_WIki:FIX_VERIZON_GPS
and
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VerizonAGPSFix
Thank you in advance for even taking the time to look at this. I know there are a ton of other threads just like this one.
Also, I should mention that I was able to use GPS when I updated to the official VZW ROM using "Valhalla Legends GPSServer.cab"
​

My understaing is that the VahallaGPS will only work with the Verizon wm6.1 release. As soon as you install a custom ROM you are out of luck.
What I had to do after allowing the Verzion wm6.1 customizations was take my phone way back to the beginning and bring it forward, without the Verizon wm6.1 customizations.
There is a good tutorial at http://wiki.ppchaven.com/index.php?title=Pocket_PC_WIki:FIX_VERIZON_GPS that worked for me.
Hope this helps.

VERIZON WIRELESS PEOPLE LOOKING TO GET THEIR GPS WORKING WITH THIS ROM:
The following steps if followed exactly will get the GPS working, as this is what worked for me tonight...read through all of this before you start because there are some things that need to be clarified...you'll be sent to a couple different places, but don't follow their instructions exactly...keep looking back to these steps, and read ahead.
1) Follow the instructions located here, http://wiki.ppchaven.com/index.php?t...IX_VERIZON_GPS. However on step #4 use the official Verizon release with radion 3.77.78 located here, http://www.pcdphones.com/phone_downl...zon Wireless. The links to the things needed for steps 1 through 3 are right next to the instructions, just click on the number and it will download. The best way to make sure the customs don't run is to not tap the screen when it says 'Tap the screen to begin setting up your device' or whatever. Just continue to the next step. MAKE SURE NEITHER ONE OF THESE ROMS INSTALLS CUSTOMS, if you do it won't work.
2) Once you have flashed the official Verizon ROM and are sitting at the 'Tap the screen...etc' go ahead and flash with NFSFAN's new 1.12 VZW ROM.
3) When the NFSFAN ROM is installed go ahead and setup the device and let the customizations run. Once it reboots, follow steps number 1-15 on the XDA wiki located here,
Code:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...onAGPSFixCode:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...zonAGPSFixMAKE SURE YOU DON'T DO STEP #16, if you do it won't work.
4) After the phone reboots, which is step 15, continue on with steps 17 & 18... REMEMBER SKIP STEP #16.
5) Once you completed step #18, go ahead and dial *228 and choose option #1. When the lady says everything was successful and says goodbye give it a second and go ahead and soft reset.
6) When the phone reboots you will be good to go... either open GPS Viewer and set COM4 and hit OPEN GPS or just open Google Maps and choose USE GPS...make sure you are outside or near a window...it will locate satellites and lock within about 30 seconds.
7) At this point you will need to have your phone re-authenticated by Verizon Wireless... easiest way to do this is call #8899 which is Mobile Security division...just tell them you need to have your phone re-authenticated and it takes them about a minute or two. All you need is the mobile telephone # usually.
I know this may seem like a lot of work, but it can all be done in less then an hour depending on your skill level and such. I've tried to make this as clear as possible for everyone else that is having these problems. If you have any questions let me know, but this WILL get your GPS working with NFSFAN's ROM if followed to the T. This worked on both my fiances phone and mine, of which neither would be able to get GPS on these ROMs before. Good luck...now get to flashing.
Huge thanks again NFSFAN... hopefully this will get all the VZW people up and running so they can stop bothering you about GPS not working and more time can go into whatever you bring us next...keep up the great work..

Where people are getting into trouble is they have let customizations run & that screws everything up. I am running the stock Verizon ROM & Radio. (3.14.605.1 & 3.37.78) Yes, the GPS does work for the most part. The only problem that I have is the GPS stops working after going to suspend mode or power off. I am not sure how to resolve this issue. Is it the radio, the ROM version, or something else?
The only thing that I have done is apply the registry tweak. I am open to any ideas

GPS on my phone is fully fuctional with zero issue now. I flashed NFSFAN's Verizon 1.12 ROM last night & let the customizations run. I did not have to apply any hacks or fix to get it working either.

Thermus - your instructions look great.
However, what should I do if I already downloaded the latest WM6.1 and installed and let the customizations run? What are my options now?
Thanks in advance.

Windows Phone 7 build 6176 Unlocked Emulator Image

Thankfully Microsoft didn't change anything in their 'protection' of the WP7 emulator image. Following the same steps as the previous build, I was able to unlock the new 'April Refresh' emulator image. It's largely the same but here's what I've noticed.
It seems a bit more buggy. I've noticed some odd screen drawing issues and even jaggy lines. Maybe it's my laptop?
Most apps seem slightly updated and more polished. A few quirks here and there.
Phone! Yup, you can see the dialer and it even fakes working.
Office is actually working. Looks like the apps shown in the videos they released.
v2... in my late night grogginess I missed the settings entries. This one should have all the settings unlocked now (including some new stuff that wasn't in the February build)
Unlocked Emulator bin v2 (multiupload) (fast mirror)
To launch it use the same process as before... "xde.exe WM70C1AprilUnlockedv2.bin"
Gizmodo posted a How to: Try Windows Phone 7 now. Although that was for the previous build, the same general steps apply. You'll just need to use the emulator bin above and the new Dev tools CTP - April Refresh. It will NOT work with the February release.
New long press menu?

Trying to find a way to add a windows live ID to fully exploit the phone
Giving this a try just for fun =D.
I'm not getting any luck through the method that you mentioned to load up the BIN. Is there a way I can drop this file in a file, open up Visual Studio, and do an F5 to get the emulator going with the new image?

I haven't tried with this one but you couldn't debug with the previous version. It will launch it though.
Cannot run the ROM!
Hey guys,
When I try to run the ROM, it hangs at the "Loading...." stage and doesn't go further at all.
Do you have any idea what I might be doing wrongly?
The first version of ROM works perfectly though.
Thank you in advance

Are you using the old XDE or the one released yesterday? I haven't tried it in the previous one but I'm guessing this is the cause.
I missed the registry entries for the settings in the original one. I updated the OP with the corrected file.
How to run?
I put the .bin in /.../microsoft xde directory and launch xde.exe and it doens't start :/

Perhaps you should post that on the OP, to prevent these questions as last time it was unlocked...
Anyone have any ideas as to why the other apps (mail, facebook, etc) won't connect? It's gotta be some stupid registry entry like the rest of the "unlocking" or maybe just in a XML file somewhere. I'm fairly certain that they're using "SNService" for windows live and facebook status update type stuff and ActiveSync with some new plugins for Live mail, etc.

Sorry for being fussy here, cause I've always been a user of Mediafire, it gets the job done easily, so I kind of like it. Multiupload usually causes Megaupload to reject my ip, saying I have an elevated number of requests, bla bla. Rapidshare works only after a number of tries with the different server under advanced options, and the only one i use is zShare, and it sucks cause it downloads at unstable speeds(i get a speed ranging from 30kbp/s and 100kbp/s) while my max speed is 300kbps! Well, thanks for reading. It's okay if you don't change, I can live on.
EDIT: I saw the 100mbits server website, thanks freedom! although this is still a suggestion for the hosting of your files. thanks

Thank you for this. As you can tell in the videos, Public Speaking is NOT my thing. I've never enjoyed it, but I want to share what's in my head because it's selfish to keep it trapped up inside. This forum is so helpful for everyone because people are willing to share what they know to the whole world. That is an incredible thing that is happening. I just wanted to do my part.

yes you can, because SPV M700 have Project+Codename is the HTC Trinity 100 which is one variant of the HTC Trinity
but the most important thing first download the ROM required for the upgrade process

Thank you Hakim for helping with an answer.
I thought there might be problems due to the fact i have WM5 installed, not WM6... but if that's not an issue i'll try to upgrade... wm5 sucks

Steps to successfully Flash your First ROM:
I would suggest you grab the Stock OEM WM 6 ROM for your phone. WM 5 version is HERE.
STOCK:
Try flashing the OEM WM 6 ROM to your phone. You might be happy with that one, but if not, it will install a newer radio so your GPS and phone functions will operate better.
CUSTOM:
1. Flash Hard SPL to your phone. Follow Video on first post.
2. Flash your prefered ROM to your Phone. Follow Video on first post.
3. Select and Flash a new/different Radio to your phone if you feel you need it. The Radio built into the WM 6 ROM is quite good, so a new one would not be fully neccessary.
If things go haywire, flash back to the Stock OEM ROM to recover. After flashing Stock OEM, you will need to flash Hard SPL again before going back to custom ROMs.
I ended up with a brick... i tried a OEM ROM... and it didn't work... Bootloader says: ipl 0.5 / spl 3.03.0000... and i can't install any version of WM5 or WM6, and, of course, I can't install HardSPL to try a cooked ROM

I'm away from home at the moment, but when I return, I'll be happy to help you get it going again, if it's possible.
That is if someone else does not beat me to it. I should return around 11th or 12th of this month.
Using my phone, I've been doing a bit of research, and I cannot find a reason for your phone bricking. When you flashed, what steps did you use, and what step did it fail at? Were you in BootLoader mode when you flashed? If you have an SD card installed, can you try it after pulling the SD card out and see if that helps? Also, maybe try flashing from the SD card and see if that is successful. Please report back and I'll do my best to support you while I'm away from home.
USB method didn't work for me, but i used SD methot with no major issues.
The problem I have is with te windows versions themselves. None that i tried work properly! i tried all the ROM's that you made and 15-20 others and i get the same result : a unusable phone. Then I have to use splexploit most of the times, try another version and so on...
This is the ROM'm I run at the moment: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395935 the real ultra light version
...but it's bearly usable: today screen is blank, the dialer is blank, and the TouchDiamond keyboard/kepad/qwerty are a bunch of lines and dots
I guess that what I have to do is modify this ROM in order to get rid of the parts that don't work, but that is a little out of my league, for now

It is a sprint package. My focus is recovery with UnBrickable mod. This is part of a system of recovery for use with Linux where a device which wont boot needs a firmware flash from temporarily uploaded bootloaders.
I'll get a vzw package up. I totally forgot about carrier branding.
Yeah this will be great for VZW. I was thinking of selling mine and returning it to stock but when I tried it said baseband was EI04 but it was android version 2.2??!??? will your method, when u post it, take us back to stock 2.3.5 EI04?

I'm uploading DJ11 right now, this is a 2.2 build.
tried this tonight on VZW tab - flash goes fine - when I try activation bypass with volume up/down, it works initially, then lets me proceed with setup, but when setup is done and get prompt that galaxy tab is ready to use, it takes me back to the "welcome to SCH-I800" screen (which I've never seen on any ROM - can't remember if it was there when I first got the tab stock and set it up) - when I touch the android, it takes me back to activation screen, but activation bypass will not work this time - perhaps some remnants of your Sprint files still there? Have reflashed three times, same result - I don't know - so close to working - I'm trying to get back to stock DJ11 so I can update to stock 2.3.5 - anyone else having this problem?

They're two different packages. Different kernels ROMs and Params and cache. You're experiencing a stock ROM which requires activation.

Understood that it's stock - but even on out of the box, totally stock tabs the bypass trick works - something weird about they way it will take you through the setup process perfectly, only to bring you back to the android screen, which you do not see initially - I don't use a data plan, just wi-fi - you've done such a great job here, so close - is there any workaround?
If only this could restore modem... I would've named it the holy grail of Galaxy Tab.
I've released information on creating your own Heimdall one-Click here: [Release] Heimdall One-Click - ROM Packaging and Distribution System
I know this is an old thread but I need some assistance from whoever can provide it. I am trying to return my Sprint tab to stock with the one click but I am having a hard time.
I try to do it, but I am constantly running into walls.
I try to flash but it gets stuck on the last step where it says that it has to reboot the tab. then the one click screen says disconnected. And the computer says that it found new hardware. The tab stays looping at the samsung screen.
What should I do to get out of this?
I feel your pain! I wound up bootlooping my Sprint Tab yesterday.
I didn't see this thread, so I don't have any experience with this particular tool. However, I did manage to recover my Sprint through information I found on the forums.
You should still be able to put it back into download mode. Then using Odin/Heimdall, you can flash it back to stock with the stuff found in this post: Stock Odin/Heimdall Files: Stock EF17 Tar
Also, the [SPRINT][CDMA]Galaxy Tab (SPH-P100) Mega Development Starter Thread (CWM, EF17 TAR) thread was pretty helpful too.
Hope this gets you headed in the right direction, I haven't done much flashing with my tablet and the information above wound up helping me out.
Please Reupload Stock Firmware
Hey wondering if anybody still has the one click file for sprint sph p100
I can't find any good download links for sph p100 seems like they are too old.

[Q] Latest Stock ROM?

I have a Sprint SPH-L710 running stock rooted 4.1.2 with the MD4 build. I haven't bothered keeping up with the latest-and-greatest, but I know I'm several Android releases behind. Last I was following it, there were some issues with 5.x and being able to root it, and I got wrapped up in some work stuff for a while and didn't keep up.
So, can someone please point me towards the best direction to get the latest-and-greatest updates from here? It's started freezing-up on me, a few times a week, so I need to wipe everything and start clean anyways. I'm happy using TouchWiz, just want to get current again. Can someone point me down the best path to get there? I'm not sure if I should return to stock, let the carrier updates load, and then re-root, or if I should just flash the latest ROM with what I've got?
(I know about enough to be dangerous, but I'm a mechanical engineer by trade, so type slowly and use small words please... )
Thanks!

I noticed this in the instructions:
Requirement: You must already be on ND8/NJ2 or the equivalent like NDC (KitKat firmware, AOSP doesn't count)(or at least have flashed the tar/OTA)

Odin this- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3007847
My ROMs: Wicked X & Wicked S5 Xperience
I did the NJ2 update per your link, and now I'm stuck in a boot-loop... Samsung title--> Samsung swirl--> Sprint splash page--> reboot... Does that twice, then hangs on the Samsung title page indefinitely.
Odin says everything installed successfully, but no-go... Going to try and return to MD4... Got my fingers crossed...
Update: Can't go anywhere... I booted into ClockWorkMod recovery in an attempt to go back, but I can't figure out where I saved my backup. Not a happy camper right now. On the plus side, it's not bricked. On the minus side, it won't boot, so it may as well be. I'm trying to flash another ROM, but not having any luck... It's gonna be a late night I guess...
ETA: Update: Got it to start loading MD4... (I guess it helps if you stop panicking and select the right file from the SD card LOL!) It says it installed successfully, but now I get nothing...
Literally nothing... The power button does nothing whatsoever. (and yes, I put the battery in the right way...) If I plug in the USB cable, my Found New Hardware wizard pops up on the computer, but I get no response from the phone... I think I bricked it...

Try wiping your internal SD and then Odin NJ2 again. If you can't do that, there are a few guides on debricking in General and Q&A sections as long as you have an SD Card and a PC, you should be able to save it.

I can't do anything with it... The phone won't power-up at all in any way, shape, or form.

Reading through that one now... Not sure if it's going to work as I am completely clueless when it comes to Linux... I know a couple people who may be able to help me though. If nothing else, I'm ready to upgrade to a GS5 and I can futz with this later on and use it for some fun stuff...

There's like two or three other guides, I think that one is the most recent though.

All the links loop back to that one... They may have been merged. If it involves Linux, I'm out... Completely clueless on that front.

Question "Query" ProtonAosp

Id like to stay with pixel instead of having to sell and then buy a new phone, just hassle, but iv seen proton is a very good ROM to run, my issues are with updates, how would you update the proton ROM? And is it easy enough to revert back to stock if needed?
Thanks.
If you want more privacy and security, as well as regular updates, GrapheneOS is an excellent option. Not sure the Proton ROM has OTA-like updates though

Graphene is a privacy based rom that lacks some crucial functionality if you need everything running. This is according to various posts on here and Reddit. Some people love it, and I'm sure some don't. I saw someone that liked it a lot but had to roll back because they couldn't get something or other working. But it depends on your needs.
As for Proton there is no OTA but updates are posted and they are a simple web install that takes about 4 or 5 minutes. Nothing is wiped if you are updating. After installing you can relock the bootloader if you want but that's another wipe as I'm sure you know. This is a very stock rom with a lot of tweaks in the background. FPR for one. It's much quicker although not perfect yet. Also the latest version is the December build with all security and most features enabled. One difference, of many, is that call screening is still available on this build. Call on hold is not. I flashed this rom and then installed the November radio over it since it does come with the crappy December radio. It's way better, I don't lose signal very much although I still do occasionally. Bottom line I like it and would have a hard time going back to stock. I'm not rooted and after the next update I might relock the bootloader, wipe the device and leave it at that.
Reverting to stock is the same as with any other custom rom. You can web install stock or manually fastboot it. Not a difficult process.

Hey I just tried there now and I unlocked the bootloader but it keeps saying about available space and if I'm using an incognito browser? Is there a specific browser I need to use to do this, I tried chrome and edge? Says I need 5gb available, my pc has like 1TB, any suggestions

What about not incognito? I heard there was some limits on that space wise.

I'll head over there now. I did see that a day or so ago.
edit: looks like the problem arises if you have multiple profiles on Chrome. I think the manual install is not that difficult though if you still run into problems. Flashall.bat -w to wipe the device then flashall.bat to install the rom. Don't do a thing until it's done. It's tempting because you get a fastboot menu allowing you to restart the device. Don't do it let the rom install direct you. I actually forgot if it's an auto reboot into the rom or finally the rom instructs you to reboot. But it should be pretty clear.

Maybe you can borrow a computer from an associate for about 5 minutes? Worth a try. Good luck let us know how you made out.

Are you using a VPN by chance? VPN are known to cause issues with wireless devices trying to connect (printers, Sonos (audio), debugging, et cetera), since your two favored toys can't "find" each other any more.
Can anyone currently using this ROM try out the translate function from the screen shot menu? I included a screen shot of how it normally presents with the results after selecting translate.
Also if you test it, there needs to be enough of a foreign language on the screen and also it might not trigger of it has your default language on the screen mixed in
