Does anyone know which custom rom will work with Verizon's VZ Nav program? Also the special VZW apps download page? I have tried MM's WAR and stock rom in the past, but neither allowed me to access the VZW apps page to download the "signed" VZ Nav prgram, or to install the cab I had saved and the program work. Similar problems happened some time ago when I installed that "clean" collection of cab tweaks when I had the OEM 6.1 on my phone. And I spent hours with VZW tech support each time with no luck. The only way to fix the problem was a clean reinstall of the OEM rom.

I have tried to ask for help over at ppcgeeks in MM's forum, but either I am not "hip hop" cool enough, or my problem is not as important as changing a full color phone into a 1950's B&W TV, as everyone seems to want the dusk theme on every aspect of their phone. So I never get any answers back, and am totally frustrated at the moment. Once again, I am getting memory leaks on the OEM 6.5 rom, even after the no push tweak installed, and the phone is getting flakier by the day. Not to mention, it is doubtful VZW will ever release a 6.5.3 update. So once again I am looking for a stable custom rom - just want my VZ Nav to work on it too. Thanks!

Anyone have any ideas? Or at least a suggestion for a NAV program with voice direction that I could use instead of the VZW Nav?

I have the Pioneer Z3 in dash NAV/SAT/DVD unit in my car, so I use that for 99.999999% of the time. But as it is a hard drive based unit, they only send out an update DVD once every 2 or 3 years (and costs $$$$$$). So there are times that I need the "live" GPS NAV on my phone in order to find routes to places not yet in my Pioneer's database. And as I am still a n00b to Texas, it is very important to not get lost. ESPECIALLY now that I got laid off (YET AGAIN, ARGH!!!!!), I cannot afford to get lost if going to a job interview at a new location.

Thanks much!

I hate to tell you to flash again but have you looked at 7ppc ROM I think he has Verizon Navigation working. I would ask in his thread before flashing but I think I saw that app in his OTA downloads when I was running his ROM. I would Flash and check for you but I just got mine set back up from flashing this morning.
