Ok so the Alltel Touch got a new ROM update that added EVDO Rev. A. It also fixed some BlueTooth issues and added video messaging.It didn’t however, include aGPS (wierd huh?)

sprint-touch How to: Install GPS/Rev A on Sprint TouchWhile Sprint users are waiting (and waiting) for the Windows Mobile 6.1 update that we assume will have REvA and GPS (only WM6.1 was officially announced) apparently some craft folks over at PPCGeeks have managed to take the Alltel ROM, rip it apart and get it to install on the Sprint Touch. So… if you’re comfortable with it you can now get not only RevA but GPS on your Sprint Touch as well!

Change your battery level increments on Windows Mobile

March 10, 2008

Okay, this one is for all you folks out there who own a Windows Mobile Pro device that doesn’t have the word “Treo” on the front (since those lucky ducks have it built in). Basically, this little trick from no2chem and stroths at PPCgeeks will change your default and lumpy 10% battery increments to the much more accurate and cool 1%.

So basically instead of going from 80% battery down to 70%, you can see your precious battery trickle away at 77%, 76%, etc. Very cool. battery-thumb Change your battery level increments on Windows Mobile

It works on my SprintTouch and I’ve read it works on the Mogul as well. It will probably other work on other WM devices. Since it’s a .cab installer, if there are any problems you should be able to just un-install under your Remove Programs area.
