Root ultimate ascend customization guide.

[BiohazardVideo]

I have a question. Is anyone else in the Vegas area? I'm confident enough to root and am enjoying the bennies of it, but want to try cm6 or 7. I loved the tutorial, but know when to stop and ask for help. I'd love to learn Modding, but I'm more a hands on learner then book or tutorial.

Please pm me.

Hello. This guide worked great. only one issue has popped up for me. After going to CM6, when I send a mms message, my phone says it sends it, but the recipient gets the message "picturenamehere.png has been deleted" also occasionally it says message from hidden user or something like that. Everything else is working fine. I applied the MMS fix again, not working. dunno what to do. any help?

Also when i send myself the message, it gives me the option to download it, i click on it, but nothing happens.just a blank message with my face next to it since i sent it.

Also, apparently I can receive MMS but cannot send them. person getting them gets, hidden user message

You don't have to do the mms fix with the new build, it is already implemented into the build. You should be able to just flash to and mms should work. If not do the voice dialer, say apn, and make sure there is a green dot next to your carrier, should be the only one there since the rom's have been split. Newest build is 04212011.

I used z4root. I also have the tap out version. All it says is it can't find the apk file when I try to uninstall an app :-/

Did anybody figure out the solution to this ? There is another tapout user having the same problem.

Airplane mode.

 

[BILL88STANG]

nope just turn it on and off and still nothing.

You may need to leave it off for longer than 2 seconds. Also you may want to pull the battery. There is also an app that should work called clock sync.

 

[BILL88STANG]

just restarted again and pulled battery, all ok now!

I use SystemApp, I don't remember if I paid for it, but it removes both system and regular apps, I have had no problems with it!

Phone has to be rooted.

Toke: Can you add this to your Cm7 Guide?

Without MetrOFF - These settings are for cm7 to get MMS working.

First you have to go to the Voice Dialer, Say "Open Apns". You might have to say it and try different pronunciations for it to work but, Don't give up! Then once you are in there make sure you delete all the other APN listed there. After you've done that, Create the new one. Make sure you have the dot on green before you exit it!

Sometimes you might need to reboot and re-check it. It does work.

Edit: I also am now getting more bars. It is not showing none as it previously was.

I have used this with more than one person. I can send and receive with no problems. ^.^ Thanks to everyone who helped me get this information together:

Pip2kk

Tokenpoke

and Isaac for making Icarus and helping us figure out how to get MMS with that too (I used those same settings but with #777 as the APN instead of <Not set>)

Don't you hate that Roaming Indicator Sign? LOL. If you've already flashed MetrOFF, You'll have to do a full re-flash of Cm7. Make sure to back-up if you plan to do this. ^.^

delete the current file that you downloaded, as it may have currupted some kind of way and retry to download the same file...once downloaded do not extract the files, just place on your sdcard along with gapps.

When running CWM does it have to be on the SD card for the phone or do you run it from your computer harddrive?
