Root [Boost Mobile] [ROM] Windows Phone 7 ROM 4.2.3 {Updated 1/22/13}

Sorry guys a fix is comming soon for the wp7 Launcher problems

Have you tried extracting the lib (.so) files from the apk, And placing them in /system/lib?
9 times out of 10 when an app works on the user side, but not as a system app, or if related to the libraries.

Thanks means a lot:D too bad i will be abandoning it after the next 2 or 3 updates. Its pretty damn hard making a ROM when you dont have the phone. think i'll just stick to updating the shevron rom for the Ultra as i do have the phone.

So I didn't read all of this thread when I flashed this rom and was running b08, not b08c and now I have this rom on my phone. The only issue besides the 7loader not working is when the phone is restarted I loose all settings. If I use the zte update tool and go back to stock can I use b08c or do I need to go back to b08? I realize this is not necessary and will remove root from my phone but I bought the phone off craigs list and it never has connected to wifi. It would obtain the lan ip from my router and not release the boost ip when I would make it out to the web so I want to start over from a stock rom.It was rooted when I bought it and I have a feeling the guy did more than he said he did. What is everyones thoughts because I am stumped.

But I can't get any of my keyboards to stick when selecting them in the Language & Keyboard settings nor in the Input method with messaging, email, etc. Driving me nuts. Any suggestions on this? I'm able to select a keyboard but when it tries to load, XT9 English takes back over.

I suggest finding a non stock xt9 keyboard flext9 id say is the best ive seen

I've been using slideit pro and swiftx but can't get XT9 to let go of control after installing this ROM. Also realized a bit ago that GPS satellites turned on won't stick now either so GPS won't work. What are the ramifications to doing a cwm restore to 2012-03-04.14.50.29? It's just going back to b08c again, correct? I had some help installing this but can't get ahold of the guy that helped. I went from b08 to b08c then to this ROM. Not near the pc that everything was backed up to so need my phone to run while I'm at work today. Need GPS at work
