Are you running a custom rom? Also what are you using to tweak your 3g? Some signal tweaks dont work well with certain roms. From what Iv read devs usually incorporate signal tweaks into their rom. Could be interference, or plain old weak signal.

 

Did you try a different location? Some places they just have a messed up signal. BTW, the stock Prevail doesn't differentiate (it always shows 3G) between a 1xRTT (much slower; technically is 2.5G but some people consider it as a 3G technology) vs. EVDO (faster) connection. If you really want to know the technology used, you can use the 2G,3G,CDMA widget

A couple days ago I was in the middle of nowhere and my connection was slower than a crippled turtle and it turned out I was on 1xRTT.

 

HMMMMM, any chance that you are running the FA19 update? lol

Very simple and I'd be glad to help you.

Just download the zip file and copy and paste it to your sd card. Then go in to CWM and select to install it from the sd card. Choose the zip file and let it install. That's it.


EDIT: OH and make sure that you're running CTMod 3.4 first as this theme is for that ROM only.

EDIT: updated MOD version to 3.4

If this theme has not been updated to 3.5 and you are running that version, there are several themes other than the WP7 theme that will work. Just look through the themes in the rooted section and make sure that you download the correct theme for the ROM that you are running.

 

You can also download it straight to your phone. It will be in the download folder on your sd card. Take it out of the folder so that it's out in the open on your card ( DO NOT UNZIP IT). That way it will be readable in CWM. That's the slow way though. I would DL it to a computer then transfer it to the card.

 

That theme is for ctmod, a custom ROM. And actually, it's not been updated for the newest build (3.5). I Believe it's currently been updated to work on ctmod3.4

Themes work by replacing images inside apks (apps) and then flashing them overtop of the existing ones on the phone. Two of those apks being framework-res.apk and systemui.apk (the framework and user interface for you ROM)
If the themed replacements.are not from your ROM, they will not interact with the rest of the system correctly and the phone will not load. (bootloop/ 'soft brick')

Edit- double ninja'd :banghead:

 

Glad that you mentioned that. I thought that the theme had already been updated. I had to go back and change the version from 3.5 to 3.4 . Thx


If you are running CTMod 3.5, just use a theme that has been made for that version. There are a few that will work perfect for you.

 

Um, did you install CTMod 3.5? You should know it if you installed it. Here's the link if you haven't installed it yet. To use this theme you will need CTMod 3.4 which is in the link below also.

This is how you install a zip from CWM.

1) From a powered off phone, hold volume up and power at the same time until the black screen comes up with blue writing. Release the button as soon as you see the screen appear.

2) Use the volume button to scroll up or down and the camera button to select. Scroll down to INSTALL FROM SD CARD then press the camera button to select it.

3) You will now select CHOOSE ZIP FROM SD CARD

4) Scroll down to the zip that you want to install and press the camera button to select.

5) The phone will now install the zip. When installing ROM's, the phone can take several minutes to reboot so don't mess with it until it boots up completely.

After CTMod is installed, install the theme the same way. If you want to install the WP7 theme you will need to install CTMOd3.4 from the link above. If you want to install CTMod 3.5 you can choose from the themes in the All Things Root section. Just make sure that they say that they are for CTMod 3.5

You will follow the steps above to install the themes too. All of the threads for themes have the installation instruction in them so make sure you read before attempting the install.

Good luck and happy modding.

 

No problemo bro. Once you've installed a custom ROM, you've entered a whole different world with all kinds of new options. I doubt very seriously that you'll ever go back to stock.

 

Right on Cook. I also see that you are a new member. Welcome to the Forum.
