I AM with the rest of you and had NO problems on my US Att Titan. See my post above. I simply reflashed the stock Cingular V1.0 rom then gold carded Cotellas spl then tethered to flash the HSPL. Have been running Dynamic's V1.2 since yesterday with no problems even with v17 radio.

One other thing I just thought of, I had upgraded to spl 2.6 from the HTc website a month before I did all this so maybe this is why I had no problems???? Perhaps it's the initial buggy ATT bootloader that won 't allow you to upgrade.?????
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] link68759:
Unlikely. I'll try upgrading to 2.6 on mine and see if that helps, though.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] the_passenger:
We're (ATT TITANs) stuck on 2.5 MFG. can't downgrade, can't upgrade. :D
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] luizmeme:
Man, this goldcard method sucks.

I still haven't unlocked my Titan. :/

Please, will there ever be an easier way to unlock our phones?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ej_424:
Now now, I'm in the same boat as you but I wouldn't say this method sucks. There has been a good success rate, and alot of time and resources have been put into this from the DFT team. Be appreciative and undertand the newer devices are becoming harder and harder to crack. I have faith in the DFT team and will paitientlly wait.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] luizmeme:
I'm dying to be able to customize my Titan. Now that I know that the only update I'm getting to my phone is the new start screen.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] iamwin:
How would you know if your titan is a euro version?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] habnzrot:
Take off back cover and battery. Check inside label, euro version will have this product code: x310e and for AT&T version is x310a.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] luizmeme:
The inside label of my phone reads "HTC Ultimate (PI391000)". It's the Brazilian version of the Titan. Is it possible to unlock?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] fbirraque:
HTC Ultimate / HTC AT&T Titan (GoldCard + Y-Cable)

Sure it's possible and works but you will need the GoldCard (Y-Cable, PenDrive and GoldCard Software).

1. Create gold card and prepare flashing.

You can use this Instruction for example.

2. Copy 1_SPL205\TITAN\ETERIMG.nbh to your SD card.

3. Hold VolumeDown + Camera keys to enter USB Host mode.

4. Flash

5. After reboot you need to check 2.05 MFG should appear in SPL screen.

6. Run HSPL wizard to install HSPL. Choose "2.05 - HSPL"

7. Done

If you haven't got a Y-Cable, you can build it by yourself, see bellow (and video):

(*) Thanks viperbjk for the electric scheme.

Video-Tutorial

(*) Thanks Budniu for made a video-tutorial.

I tested a lot of SD Cards/PenDrives. The ONLY one that worked for me was SanDisk 2GB Cruzer Blade:

SanDisk 2GB Cruzer Blade

Regards,
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] luizmeme:
Thanks for your reply. Did you make the Y-Cable yourself?

I want to buy one but I don't know which one I should.

Is it a 2 female to a male? One female to power the usb flash drive and the other one to power the phone?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] fbirraque:
I made my Y-Cable using this same last two references (electric scheme + video tutorial). It's very simple!

Yes... You will need one male (USB Power) and two female (USB HTC Titan Sync Cable + USB PenDrive/SD CardReader). But you can try to find it on a IT Store near you.

Like I said the most critical part is to find a compatible PenDrive.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] iamwin:
thanks! now i know that i have a euro version.

X310e

PI39110

good thing that I know that I may not use goldcard method again. I got a lot of trouble finding a working card reader for my goldcard when I did that on my htc 7 mozart, which I have successfully unlocked :)

---------- Post added at 01:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 AM ----------

you may buy y-cable and 2 usb gender changers/ adaptors if you do not want to solder or to handle wiring mods. :) here's what i used when i unlocked my htc 7 mozart, i believe this is same when used with htc titan:

-a standard y-cable

-2 gender changers (usbAF) ---> both with female ends

-multi card reader

-my htc microusb cable
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] jraviles:
I am using a TMO-US Htc Radar 4G. While flashing the 2.05 SPL, I also recieve the Invalid Vendor ID error whence the installation reaches 4%.

My SPL screen reads:

"

Does the RUU in this package not support my US TMO Radar?

Thank you so much DFT! Your first gen H/SPL worked flawlessly on my HD7
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] meteorain08:
Well, just bought the Titan a few days ago and I've got this issue:

I've completely SPLed and the phone says "2.5 MFG", then I ran the HSPL program and it worked perfectly, but when I enter SPL screen, it does not say anything like "HSPLx.y.z" or "CotullaH..."... Anyone helps?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ej_424:
Sounds like you are in teh same boat as most of US ATT Titan owners. Everything works as planned with gold card, but HSPL never takes even though it says success. WE are patiently waiting for a fix apparently, however hearing it from DFT themselves would be nice :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] meteorain08:
OK thanks :( let's wait for a couple of weeks :(
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] jraviles:
I asked if the phone is supported in your RUU, but I already knew its not.

I meant to say, please include the US T-Mobile Radar (Omega) into your RUU.

Maybe you will have to add one line of code into the omega.nbh image so it can properly flash into the US Radar?

If there is any help I can offer in testing I would be willing to help with my US Radar.

Thank you (she she)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] DarkLG:
Tried Ruu got the vendor error tried goldcard and it won't even start flashing I end up giving up lol :/
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] noelito:
t-mobie us requires gold card process first

you have to flash your phone with gold card first before you can install custom roms, follow the gold card directions
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] iamwin:
finally, I had my Titan hspl'd :) It took me around 15 minutes (or less, I think) to do the job :) now, which rom to flash.. :D

btw, do I need to put the device in SPL mode when flashing custom rom?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] meteorain08:
HD2O Dynamics7 is one of the best ROM I think, and yes you reboot the phone into SPL screen before flashing.

By the way, is your phone the Titan AT&T ? I succeed in SPL, and when I tried HSPL it was OK, but then when I reboot the phone into SPL screen, I don't see anything like "CotullaH..." or "HSPL x.y.z". Maybe CotullaH is fixing it :(
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] zup2sky:
Need....HSPL for at&t Titan
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] iamwin:
my Titan is an international version, not a network branded one. that's why the process was just smooth as i expected. :) I have heard that branded titan's, particularly the at&t ones have difficulty in doing so,as goldcard is needed...
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Dr.Mazika:
can anyone record a video for unlocking steps please
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ArtieQ:
So by doing this you unlock the device so you can install 3rd party apps and stuff? I really can't remember since I haven't been active for a long time.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] iamwin:
yes :) install 3rd part apps such as BT File transfer :) and many more :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ZetaZynK:
Yes and no. Applying a HSPL removes the signature checks on ROMs and other things the SPL can flash. It will also reset your device. If you flash a stock ROM afterwards, you're still locked - however, if you flash a custom ROM with unlock built-in, you can install arbitrary things to your phone.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ej_424:
Goldcard method doesnt even work on all ATT versions. There is a mystery here as to whats happening, alot of us are stuck on the Modified SPL 2.5 and can't update or downgrade. It really sucks.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] jraviles:
Can some confirm with DFT that United States of America support is coming in DFT HSPL second gen v 2?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] link68759:
As of yet, the mystery is so complete that we don't even know if certain models are unsupported; it could just be a quirk in the process that half of us are getting through by dumb luck.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ej_424:
Sad part is that now we can't even update to official sol 2.6. Please help
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] prjkthack:
So for a split second, I can see the RGB screen flash with HSPL at the top, then the screen clears and only displays "Enter USB Host Mode..".

Plugging it into the computer does absolutely nothing. It just sits there. I can't flash anything from that screen. Any suggestions on how to get back to the regular RGB screen that displays the SPL/HSPL information?

This is on an at&t HTC Titan using goldcard. Though I don't even think goldcard worked properly. It reads the flash drive with the nbh on it for a split second, then restarts automatically. Once I boot into bootloader from that point, I clearly see SPL 2.5, from which I can use HSPL to flash HSPL, but then I can never get back into the RGB screen to flash anything else.

Scratch that, I was using the wrong button combination. Different issue now. Holding Vol Up+Vol Down shows HSPL and CotullaH, but it does not allow me to connect via USB to flash anything.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] link68759:
does it say f400 on the top?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] prjkthack:
Yep, it certainly does. Shoulda mentioned that (and searched), but didn't notice it till now.

Hmm. I guess I found out what F400 means. Any way to fix it?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] link68759:
Yeah, I had f400 and I was able to fix it by reflashing the SPL through goldcard (flash the stock ROM).

However if you have HSPL, then you could just go ahead and flash DFT's (or any) ROM through goldcard; you don't want to remove HSPL and then be unable to get it back.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] sathara:
i have PI39100 and it get INVALID vendor ID .. what to do .. i need help .
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] prjkthack:
Yeah, problem is that it won't get to the point where I can connect it via USB to flash any custom ROMs. Just gets stuck at F400.

What do you mean by reflashing the SPL? You mean the NBH from the stock ROM?

Hmm, another though, can custom ROMs be flashed via goldcard method (as in, put the whole NBH on the flash drive and flash)? I assume you'd need SPL or HSPL in order to do this of course.

Okay, so I put the stock ATT Titan NBH on the USB drive and flashed it via goldcard. Then, I put the SPL NBH (eternimg) on the goldcard and flashed that. It appeared to half-brick again like it was doing, but it rebooted me into bootloader with the ability to connect via USB, so I flashed HSPL. Then it really seemed like it half-bricked. I plugged the phone back into the goldcard and flashed the SPL NBH one more time, and this time it actually appeared to work properly (showing me the complete status of the flashing process and giving me a 'COMPLETE' message at the end). Once it actually completed, I rebooted and pressed Vol Up+Vol Down, and I verified that it said HSPL and Cotulla, and I now allows me to connect via USB and flash whatever I want to flash!

Edit: Just finished flashing a custom ROM to the phone. Awesome!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] elmanortega:
should be wait?

please advice

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] fbirraque:
You will need Y-Cable + GoldCard with your Titan:

HTC Ultimate / HTC AT&T Titan (GoldCard + Y-Cable)

Regards,
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] link68759:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think anyone has actually bricked the AT&T Titan.

The worst that has happened is... being unable to flash the custom ROM. Which is where you are already at without HSPL anyway. If you get stuck at SPL 2.5, it just means your stuck with the stock ROM for now.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Prerna:
No, this won't work. You need to flash a nodo rom, so that rspl/hspl will work.

Your phone is half bricked. If you read earlier post in this thread, f400 can easily be corrected by flashing a stock rom using gold card.

- Reinstalled WMDC on my Windows 7 PC

- Rebooted PC

- Flash phone with Titan advanced RUU to the eternity Cingular Stock ROM by football

- Used a custom Y-cable

- Copied the DFT 2.5 SPL to 1GB kingston microsd

- Created the gold card with the [Noob-friendly] Goldcard SPL Method

- Entered USB host mode with volume down and camera button

- Flashed the 2.5 SPL with gold card to the phone

- Entered SPL to verify that it said 2.5 SPL

- While in SPL, flashed DFT HSPL

- Entered SPL to verify the HSPL flashed sucessfully
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] habnzrot:
@ryotgz- could it be flashing a stock cingular rom before attempting dft spl 2.5 and hspl made the difference? Also can you confirm that you've successfully installed custom rom, because some have managed to install hspl but still can't install custom rom.
