I was able to install the new ROM on my hone, thanks theidoctor.

I have a couple questions:

1) For some reason i can't get the GPS Working. I am using Google Maps. I have set the GPS Settings to use Com8 with a baude rate of 57600. I'm not sure what else to so?

2) I used manilla on my phone prior to the flashing, but now when I try to use it I get a lot of errors and it freezes up on me. Is there either another UI that I can use with WM6.1 or do I have to uninstall Manilla?

It says to do a hard reset, just to the system memory or the my storage as well?

1) Did you go into settings -> system -> phone -> GPS -> Location On and then do a soft reset?

2) I would go ahead and install Wozzer's ROM v5 (unless you want windows 6.5) He has a version that already has M2D installed on it :D

This will only wipe out your system memory. The "My Storage" won't be affected unless you check the box in UMDL that says "Erase Storage Card" or w/e the option is (It is off be default)

Last 4 digits of your phone number. This isn't a needed step, but I always suggest it, too :D

After flashing the new ROM I went ahead and changed that setting and did a soft reset.

Okay, after the soft reset it should have come up with a disclaimer notice. (If it didn't, repeat that step)

Next, go outside, bring a chair since it can take quite a while to get your first lock (up to 10-15 minutes). Open up your favorite navigation program (I use iGo Amigo or iGo8) and just wait. You'll get a lock :D I always seemed to have issues with GoogleMaps, but other people said it works if you go to menu -> Use GPS and leave it under "Managed by Windows"

Thanks, I set the Google Maps GPS setting to Managed by Windows and went outside on my lunch break and it worked.

Is it okay to flash my device with like Wozzer's 6.5 rom without a hard reset? and my system settings seemed to have messed up a little during a backup(restore actually) from winmo 6.1.. Can I reflash it without losing all the programs I have installed?

When you flash, you lose all your installed programs.

This happened to me and others as well but as of yet I have found no solution. I think it may be a hardware incompatibility with older Omnia's but am not yet convinced. There is a thread about it here. My plan is to wait for the official Verizon release and take it to the service center for a replacement if it still won't calibrate. For the record if you now flash one of WoZZers ROMs the calibration step is skipped and the phone will work fine but the touch screen will be off a bit. I have tried all the manual calibration settings in the registry but nothing works.
