OK, I am new here and have done a lot of reading. Apparently me and about 3 other guys are the only ones that have USCC, not a lot out there for us. NFSFAN, you have mentioned that you might be able to whip us up something if there were more, that would be great. I do have a number of specific questions and I'd love all the great input that everyone has.
1. 6.5 or Android? (yes I know it is all personal taste)
2. My touch does not have GPS enabled from USCC. If I unlock the phone do I use .41 or 2.31? Yes I want GPS and would find a ROM with it and is that why I would choose one or the other?
3. My Radio is 3.42.30, do I need to upgrade to 3.42.50 for GPS or just to upgrade to 6.5? and where do I find that radio?
4. Am I asking to basic of questions yet?
5. How do I get Adobe Flash Player loaded/upgraded?
6. Is there a good .cab website out there for games/apps?
7. Can I have my cake and eat it too?
Nah j/k but I know my phone is capable of so much more than I am using it for now and want to take advantage of it. I really appreciate all the help and suggestions.
Thanks

Have you look over at PPC Geek's at all? There is a lot more CDMa info there.
Ok, I kinda thought this was the forum for CDMA, aka my USCC VOGUE phone. I have looked on ppc and am going to repost this question there. I saw the wealth of knowledge here and thought I could get some help....

This particular forum is for the CDMA Vogue but this site is geared more toward GSM devices. There doesn't seem to be a big US Cellular following on here.

Yes it is a personal choice, nice thing about Android is that it is a Linux shell - rebooting the phone brings you back to WinMO so really it can be best of both worlds just be prepared for some work in using Android and remembering steps before starting it like, Starting IE/Opera before starting Android to make sure you have Internet within Android (at least when I was using it a few months back)

You would use 2.31 unlocker and from there flash to a custom ROM - try a Generic ROM either 6.1 or WinMO6.5 might be able to utilize GPS if your connecting via generic or seek out some other USCC users in threads, I know some are using 6.5 currently and able to work fairly well

No, 3.42.30 is fine, you wont see a difference with 3.42.50 worth it plus it can cause some issues more than positives so stay to the basics

Depends on the ROM used as well as the Browser (IE or Opera) there is some reports of IE Mobile 8 or something like that working but flaky

Search the forums both here at VDA as well as PPCGeeks you will see links to personal cab repositories that will contain some for ya

Of course you can, but the actual saying is "can I eat my cake and have it too" in reference to the days of Marie Antoinette and the famous line of "let them eat cake" the idea is to be able to eat your cake AND have it, which of course would be impossible as would the situation a person in reference to the saying would be wanting as well
Hope that helps

Thanks Doug I had almost given up hope on this thread. I have been on PPC Geeks and am just about to take the plunge. Thanks for all the advice and I see the logic in the actual "eat / have it" order, very interesting and educational. Thanks again and I will try to update after I upgrade.
spittinfly, in your reading have you found the settings you need with QPST to make your GPS work with USCellular? Also, the instructions that get you into the diagnostic mode with other carriers do not work with USCellular. I had to do a lot of reading myself, and piece together information from several different threads to make it work. With the same radio you have I can lock in from 6 to 11 satellites. If you have found all this information I won't bother typing it all in, but if you need it let me know.
Personally, I've tried a couple of different ROMs, but I'm currently just running the USCellular WM6.1 with SPB Mobile Shell 2.1.5, while I'm anxiously awaiting Shell 3.
Well I am not familiar w/ SPB but I did go on ppcgeeks and searching for "uscc 6900" found what appears to be a good option for me. Would someone mind checking it out?

SPB is a set of applications for use ON your phone (SPB Backup, SPB Keyboard, ETC) SPB is the company name followed by what the app is
As far as the thread, Im hoping and assuming you are referring to NFSFAN 6.5 V6R2 Generic Carrier ROM ... I only ask as I am not going to read through 8 pages of replies to find what your referring to
If it is regarding NFSFAN and the ROM he has to offer, then yes I would suggest trying it, its the ROM I use on my HTC Vogue (Touch) and its been stable, fast and reliable
Detroit Doug
Is there a way to "turn on" the GPS (unlocker first, I understand this) WITHOUT changing the ROM?
I very much enjoy my current setup with ONE exception: no GPS.
I've read a little about QPST and have tried a version of it (its been quite a while) but it doesn't seem to recognize my 6900...
so... basically... 2 questions: 1. can I turn on GPS using only a settings change in QPST, and if so, 2. what version of QPST do I need to do so?
FYI, USCC 6900 6.1 Radio 3.42.30 ROM 3.01.573.4
Thanks in advance
Any Diamond 2 style roms released here yet?
ive been out of the forum for a while wondering if anyone knows of a rom which has some of the diamond 2 features or interface
thanks
there are plenty just on the front page of rom development
thanks but these are not all Diamond 2 roms - they are 6.5 build or td3
i asked if there are any diamond 2 roms for the diamond
thanks
are you asking for the XIP/OS from the diamond 2 rom?
diamond 2 are running 6.1 currently
obviously you cant flash d2 rom into a d1 phone... the resolution is completely different for starters
Take a look here as Topez dialer components are being ported
Caution: Currently only ready for CDMA phone. GSM versions are to arrive some time next week.

Hi Guys,
In 6.1 i had a cab which would show the battery % in the taskbar which was extremely useful, this doesnt work in 6.5 though so i was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction?
Cheers
Jas
Try different ones, sometimes some of those cabs doesnt work on a particular ROM.
Anyone got a link to any others? The one ive got is quite old.

As a senior member, you should know that this forum is not about hand-outs, but I think that you will find what you are looking for in the stickies in this section.
Folks, first post here so i apologise if this is asked every other week. I had a look through the first 7 pages and couldnt find anything related.
Basically looking to upgrade my TP2 from 6.1 to 6.5, but all this chat of "ROM" etc is totally new to me.
I noticed in the Android development forum theres an extremely simple guide, but just wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction of a guide for 6.5?
Thanks!

DON'T PANIC
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Just upgraded from Fuze to Tilt 2 on AT&T. I'm an amatuer but managed to flash my old Fuze, load weather master, use TF3D config and manila customizer.
I'm having a hell of a ime trying to get what I need for my Tilt 2 fresh from AT&T with WM6.5. It locks up constantly and is a real pain.
I want to see the weather on my home page which doesn't show now. I want to be able to add weather locations as I did with my Fuze and Weather Master. I also need to flash ROM, radio, everything on this phone to make it better. I need some guidandce on what the best options for me are. Please help with some links to where I need to go. I know how to flash I just can't pick what I need out of all of this info.
What's the best, most stable Roms out here? Radios? Weather editors? TF3D configurations? I can't seem to get my old mind working.
Thanks folks!

The weather on the home page is not included with the stock Tilt 2 Rom. You would need to flash one. The "best" ROM is subjective. What is best for me may not be best for you.
I suggest reading up n the differences between Windows 6.1, 6.5, and 6.5.x as well as the differences between Sense 2.1 and Sense 2.5
Then, determine which combination would work best for you and pick a ROM based on that.
Once you are done with that, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550973

Yea Yea`
Don't tell me no one here gets zoned out and can't find something. I should have known to type "noob" or "mall ninja" in the search engine.
I'm old, I have one daughter starting college this fall and my 5th (yes I said FIFTH) GIRL on the way. Please have mercy on me. I rarely have time to do things for me so perhaps I give up a little earlier than I would have 20 years ago.
On to my next NOOBster question. Thank you Doinshots for your advice and that's really all I need. Last time I did this was with my Fuze when I joined this forum. I didn't seem to have any problems then but now I can't seem to figure out which one I should use and how to go about it. I will read everything and hopefully won't have to ask too many questions. Open forums are brutal!
