Just got a Dash recently, and I've been loving it. Been bouncing back and forth between ROMs trying to find one I like, and the one thing I've never managed to get working on any of them is VoIP.
I've been searching around trying to find a method that works, but no matter what, I never seem to succeed. With the 3VOLUTION ROM, I can get the menu to show up, but I've never managed to get farther than that.
Can anyone recommend a ROM and installation method that they know works? Or if I've managed to miss another thread just like this that's already been answered, if you could point me to it, I would be very grateful.

From what I've gathered reading about the GPS problems on XV6900's with Verizon....you might need to know the history of my ROM's.
1. I got the phone brand new 3 weeks ago and of course it came with 6.0 out of the box.
2. I installed the newest Verizon 6.1 ROM w/ radio 3.37.78
3. I then installed NFSFAN's 6.5 v7 ROM
4. I installed "NFSFAN Verizon GPS Registry.cab"
So for starters my GPS does not ever connect. I don't even know where to start. I've been searching and reading on here for 4 hours this morning and about 5 hours before bed last night. I just got really confused. Lots of what I found was regarding an older Verizon 6.1 update, so I'm not sure any of that was applicable to me. Please point me in the right direction so I can start using Google Maps. Thanks in advance!
Now Pandora.....I have installed the pandora app that I found in the NSFFAN's 6.5 FAQ thread. Well it installed fine, but when it asks for my email and password there is no where to input them. The screen is just solid blue and at the bottom says "Back" and "Sign In". I changed my hardware button to bring up a keyboard thinking that might help, but no such luck. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it once already. Once again thanks in advance!

Alright, I realize it sucks when there is a new thread every week about this, but there is also a ton of old information on this site and it makes finding an answer very hard and even when I think I know what to do I look at the thread date and it's over a year old....and thus refering to an old Verizon ROM. Obviously the answer in on this site somewhere I just need someone to point me to the most recent solution that also correlates with my ROM history and problem. If I have to I'll paypal someone $5 if they can get my GPS working.
I haven't seen anyone have the problem I'm having with Pandora. Has anyone had this issue? Am I actually alone on this one? Are there any other native Pandora program options?

For the first time you open pandora,
open the keyboard before you open pandora,
it should stay open.
it's a problem with pandora itself.
also it seems to not be working correctly with 6.5 as of right now.
I put it on there for others to test for me,
but everyone is reporting it is a no go.
:/
hopefully pandora will release a update asap.
Also, gps issue,
verizon is blocking ip's or something like that,
therefore everything people are doing to make gps work,
is more of a work around.
And I'm sure verizon will figure out a way to counteract those as they are crafty son's of b*tches when it comes to people unlocking stuff they want locked down.
This phone has basically become a nightmare. Im seriously considering getting rid of it and just going back to a stable phone. Basically, im trying to get off the rom im currently on and suddenly activesync wont work for me. I just want to know if there's a different way to install roms. When i used to have a tilt years ago, i remember there being an alternative. So i just want to know if anyone knows what i can do as an alternative for installing a rom. Or if someone knows how to fix activesync, that would be helpful as well.
Under USB to Pc in settings-connections untick all boxes except the 1st one.
And if you want to get rid of your TP2 let me know

thanx,.i love the phone, i just wish it were more stable at times. I installed this rom firestorm rom. So well see how that goes for a couple days. But ill let u know if so. So far, so good(but thats how all roms feel at first,..lol)
Yeah, in the beginning it´s like this
but now we have very good and stable ROM´s much better than official ones, just have patience!
Hope your activesync prob went away
Yea, im a pretty patient person, just I hate when a device locks up(that was my annoyance with the iphone 3G). Anyways, the current rom has been great so far(firestorm 4.8). It seems the problem lies in touch flow3d(atleast for me). Touch flow 3d causes me problems in certain things. Such as the last rom i tried which was an AF. Was great with everything, til i started getting into deep conversations via text messaging. Phone froze like 3 times on me, in a row. I had to keep removing battery and repowering which definitely angered me. But the rom i have now doesnt have touch flow, and i think thats the only way to go for a stable rom(atleast for me). I will have to get into another "textversation" to make sure its all going good. So far i like the stability and speed.
Okay so ive been browsing this site for a few days, each day spending hours trying to find the solution to my issue. and i havnt found it yet.
***I bought this phone off somebody, it wasnt mine originally. already came with WM 6.1 and alot of other stuff***
my problem isnt that i want T9 texting instead of the predictive type(like mostly all of the ones i find)
my problem is that my phone is stuck in some hybrid qwerty/standard cell text entry. the pads that are grey (Numbers) are stuck assuming i want to type useing them as a standard cell. ( multi-tap)
but what i want is for the button to be used as its QWERTY. all the solutions involve downloading some keymap. but i already have done that, and used all of the Tegic ET9 keymaps. none of them change the text enrty.
then i find that im supposed to hold ALT and press space, well my ALT button appears to not work. so then that doesnt help either. thers no way i can find to get full QWERTY texting, which makes it annoying that it even has a full keypad that i can only half use.
does anyone see my issue? can anyone help?
is there a way to go back to predictive type and maybe that will bring back QWERTY?
okay, so after EVEN more reading and researching, i see that i can either try a remap (which im pretty sure i have tried) or reseting back to original ROM.
which i dont want to do really, because i kind of like the 6.1 build.
a new question i have is, if i upgrade to the 6.5 i see on this site, will that fix my problem?
is my ALT key broke? i see the same problem happened to alot of people, but i dont think that we can all have ONE similar broken key, resulting in the exact same problem. seems kind of... odd?
so yeah. if anyone could help, that would be awesome...

Hmmm... I know that in the ROM threads there are multiple posts of keymap files. Try using one of those.... If that doesn't work, then definitely do a reflash. Realize that you CAN go to the original ROM, and then go back to whatever you want, going back to the original may clear up some issues (or tell you if it is the ROM that is causing the problem.) ANother alternative is HARD-RESET, which is like flashing a new ROM, but not exactly, it just clears the memory to "factory default" (or just the basic ROM files that were originally installed)
Good Luck
okay, so im thinking of just trying these steps, tell me if this should work.
1. hard reset
- keymap/ xt9 and see if that works
2. rom downgrade to original
-see if that works with maybe the xt9
3. after downgrade, upgrade to 6.5
-with all the many fixes this should work?
so im thinking this should work?
oh and im just going to give my older sister this phone, she doesnt use phones to the extent that i do. so if i go to 6.5 would it be user-friendly for her? i still need to fix this text entry problem tho.
and how long do you think this would take?
I have an AT&T Tilt 2. i have flashed many roms on it. i do task 29 then flash new rom. problem is, there are only two roms on this site that work completly, all other roms i have a problem with the end/home key not working when i read or look at a text or mms. the key works in all other tabs/ functions thou. i just want to see if i can find why this happens and see if i can fix it. the two roms it works fine with are "e2_ROM_25_20100320 and TPC v7_23544. all other roms ive tried i cant get the end key working. i have tried remapping the answer key for the end key function also to no effect. works just like the end key does. in text view no worky fine, all other tabs/ functions worky fine. anyone think they can help, i thank you!
what do you mean "end/home key not working "?
when you press it nothing happens? also why you press end/home key when you reading SMS message???for what? trying to go back to home screen?
Forgive the question, but just what is "task 29"? I've done a search and came up with tons of posts where it is mentioned, but none actually explain what the heck it is?
This is the first time I've heard the phrase used in the 2 years that I've been here. LOL!
Thanks,
Debbie

Basically it clears your storage without flashing your ROM.
For the OP, it sounds like a driver thing. Have you tried asking in the specific ROM thread?

Many thanks! How the heck did I miss this??? LOL! I had tons of threads, most which were referring to "Task Manager", because it tagged the word "task" instead of the entire phrase (search is not a perfect animal), so I was way confused.
Seems I can't use this anyway due to my USB connection being all FUBAR. I have to use a BT USB to sync, so I guess I won't be doing much flashing until I get it fixed. Too much $$$ for me to do that right now unfortunately.
I will certainly subscribe to the thread for use down the road.

Yes, while I'm in sms or mms the end/home key does nothing. I only push that button to return to the home/today screen. i have ask in a rom forum that it was happing with and was told to try task 29. i do that already.
Any-one think they can help me? I have a new tilt2 and I still have my problem. I've tried all i can think of but I'm still new to this phone.
I think I've narrowed it down to HTC message itself. I've tried a few roms that had no HTC Message and the key works fine. Install HTC Message and the key no worky fine. I install HTC Message cause I like the way it looks and works, it being slow dont bother me. If someone knows of another messaging cab I could use instead of HTC's but looks and feels like HTC's, please tell me or give me cab to try. Thanks!
I gues I'm the only person with this problem, I've looked all over the net and this web site and see no-one with this problem. I dont know if its me doing it or my computers doing it to my phone, but even with a new tilt 2 I have the same results. i dont know how to cook or dump roms yet ( working on it ) but maybe, if some-one has the end key drivers or a regtweek or any other idea I could try, they could post it here for me to try.
Well,, I"ve tried and tried to fix this problem I'm having to no sucsess. I've Flashed a rom that HTC Messaging works on, gone through all the regisrty and settings and can't see any differance between one it works on and one it don't work with. I wish i knew more about coding and programing, but im not that smart. I have tried every way of flashing that I could come across on all of xda site. And like I've siad before, I have another tilt 2 so i dont think its my phone. I have redownloaded roms, task 29, factory flash then custom rom, redid HardSPL, all kinds of flashing combos but nothing works. I would really love to fix this but I'm at a loss. If any of you guys or gals can help me, please do!
Hello,
I know this has been asked here before, I've done about 5-6 hours of bouncing around forums looking for answers, yet I still remain stuck and confused.
Heck Jailbreaking my old 3GS seemed simpler!
Maybe I'm just used to that OS
Anyways, Im looking for a clear cut, laymans terms response.
If anybody is able to help, its VERY appreciated!
Im running an unlocked and rooted Rogers Dell Streak, build 6601
So far Ive been able to take it from being the "Rogers OS" to the AT&T one.
A guid I found here told me to do so.
I got rooted and have fastboot and clockwork on the unit but I cant seem to find out what to do next.
I tried streakdroids QDLtool video but my laptop wouldnt allow me to change the certificate signature checks off and I got turned around and now cant see "quaalcom HSUSB" in my device manager..
Im a complete n00b to android, I apologize if this isnt making much sense and please explain slowly
How can I get the Custom froyo on my phone from my current state?
Anybody?
Or do you know where to point me for more information?
This is driving me bonkers!
