Well, it looks like my phone really hates jboogies rom since i've tried both liquid arc and gingerbread and both gave me the problem of intermittent gsm connection problems and frequent "emergency call" status.

Just recovered my old finland rom and everythings back to normal with my gsm reception.

Looks like i gotta see if the next iteration of jboogie wont cause gsm connection blackouts on my phone again.

Btw, i am on singtel non-3g service for now but am going to get another 3G sim card for this phone.

lol, that's bad for you bro. why not try the Barebones ROM? or Pays?

Could it be becoz i previously flashed by phone using a SBF which has somehow blacklisted my phone from using jboogies rom?

Coz everything seems to be working fine on with jboogies rom except for the phone reception which goes haywire real bad.

i've flashed a lot of SBF when i first tried to move to 2.2, and had a few screw up, so i guess that shouldnt be the case. i was prepared to have my DEFY turn into a RM1k+ paperweight!

luckily Sifu Lingch helped me and finally found a full SBF to flash, although i lose direct downgradability.

did you set APN settings?

No i did not.

But i did try the phones default apn reset which should get the apn settings from my telco and it had not effect at all since i still exp intermittent outages.

Do you mean that you can restore a nandroid backup of Barebones without needing to flash a new SBF? And than if you don't like it, can restore back the LiquiArc nandroid?

no lah, i mean i do a nandroid backup of my current LiquidArc, and then flash Barebones. If i dont like Barebones, i can always re-flash back to LiquidArc with my apps together

Yeap

I always keep a copy of backup in my SD card just in case factory reset not work then i can give a try on restore

back in business after full flash.....fugly motoblur ui, i wan my go launcher ex

finland ROM??

2.59 SEA full flash.....might try liquidarc though since so many positive comments but tis week no time reserve / KIV for next week

take the plunge dude, and see how much difference custom ROMs are!!

i know i did!! just dont screw up if you want downgradability...and flash on a full battery. i didn't, and i screw up, and i was left with battery low warning, unable to program. had to do some major USB wiring thingamagick to revive the battery before i can flash

roger tat but still kiv next week, where i will have more time to get more info and all the steps rite lolz, hmm i still need 2.59 in place 1st rite if wan maintain downgradability?

Thanks you spared me some headache!!

it's Android after all. if you dont like customising it, get an iphone!!

Man give him some time. Once he is started is not going to stop anymore.

You forgot symbian and win7

what's that you said? i didnt hear you

... ... trade in the N97 because it is symbian. LOL

Symbian is dying...that's why Nokia is going to roll out winmo7 phones soon. If not bye bye Nokia....
