@ pennisim

"hello - my work servers (only place I can access internet) block rapidshare + megaupload - is there any chance someone can put a link to the radio on a different site (need usb upgrade) - If you can email me it, PM me for my email! Thank you so much. Always enjoyy the roms!"

Based on you saying that you only can access the internet at work, I'm assuming you dont pay for data on your phone. But if that's not the case:

Connect your phone to computer, establish a sync. Go to Network settings, and right click and Disable work network provider. Hit "Internet Sharing" on your phone, and then let it connect. Things will synch up and your computer will establish a connection to the net....then you can roll over to Rapidshare and get the files you need. It may not be quick, but it should work.

Otherwise you could ask a friend, or try a public library. Or even drive around and catch some wifi on your phone and download it directly to your harddrive.

asking

hi , i have a htc 6800, but the company the service dont have to update os to do work gps in my pda, you think that update only the radio can activate the gps? some friend update the rom to spring but this rom is in english and i need to my pda en spanish, for that reason ask if can activate the gps only update the radio?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] deeznuts2:
no - updating the radio only will not activate gps

For gps, you will need to flash one of the dcd's gsp/reva roms (or someone else's rom). In doing so, you will also need to flash a compatible radio to get service

Third link at the top of the titan upgrading page contains a link to the wiki page which explains it all
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] cosako63:
thank you for writte me...

I have a question... Do you know someone in this page that is making a rom in spanish?

Or how can I do for make one ROM? I have to know programation of computer to do that?

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gbenj:
i would try this: put microsd into card reader and into computer, right click my computer, click manage, under disk management, right click on the drive that your card is.

select fat32, allocation size 1024, delete the thing at the top that says new volume, and leave it blank. format like that, then copy TITAIMG.nbh etc, and try to enter bootloader.

i tried formatting every other way, and it didnt work, finally i tried this way and it worked the first time.

good luck
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
That's all well and nice..but you still have to wait for it to come...and it doesn't come with the extra 2 adapters. For best buy, that's a GREAT deal.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] hoothrewpoo:
agreed that you have to wait for shipping, but come on... .3-5 days wait time for double the size, and $0 (inclding shipping!)? It does come with the full size adapter, but not the mini-SD.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] aguas:
thanks, but just as i though 16 megs is too small. it did give fat32 as an option but the allocation size is too big for it. but if its set to default it says the file system is too big for the card. the default for the card is a 12 bit FAT partition. thanks though, at least i cant format the new one no problem.

Buy.com ought to give their products away for free since their customer service sucks so bad. I'd never get anything through them again after a couple of bad experiences.

If anyone lives near a Microcenter, you can get 1gb MicroSD cards with SD adapter for $7.99. Just bought two the other day, and they work great for flash.

Please excuse me if this is a dumb question or not related...

I did the 3.42.02 update when it first posted and no issues phone wise but I did have issues with my Jawbone BT which worked fine on 3.39 never and issue (rom 3.12). I found that when out of range and coming back in range I would not pickup a incoming call when I press the BT button. When it was working I could here the phone ringing in the BT and press the BT button to answer...the ringing would stop in the BT but not pickup (as if the partnership disconnected). Then I would fight to get it back working. I am tech support so I spend hours on the phone and reflashed to 3.39...a working headset for me is MAJOR..I do it all voice-calling, etc..

As a tech I am willing to try updates, so I will do the 3.42.30 but am I off track has anyone see this issue or are the two functions not related to this radio update? If I am wrong forgive me but the fact that BT function is hit/miss with no specific pattern was real :-)

Advise?

If I run the rom update utility with the nbh file in the same directory, does the file also have to be on the micro sd card.

Nope. The SD card flashing is an entirely different method - You can use either one or the other.

Use sd as a preference for all flashing.

Follow these instrux (from wiki about three paragraphs down):

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TITAN_GettingStarted

Make sure the phone has over 50% charge.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] hoothrewpoo:
are you running it using a dummy RUU file? If so, I believe that the RUU method is currently not supported. I haven't been able to get it to work on the last couple of radios that were released.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drew826:
SD card needs to be fat32 with TITAIMG.nbh on the root of the card (not in a subfolder), but the card does not need to be blank. I keep a copy of all my cabs, roms, kitchens, radios, etc on the SD card and never clear it off when I flash.

edit:

Also, while Serfboreds always mentions that you should have greater than 50% battery charge, it's really just a warning. I've flashed with below 50% battery charge many times and it's never died on me.

Updated from 3.39 today to this, I have noticed better reception with this new revision and better call quality. I have also have a notable increase in GPS lock time.

This radio does not undo the GPS "Fix" posted by GC. (like it shouldn't have)

I also noticed that this is the first time I have ever upgraded the radio (4 times so far) and didn't have to call verizon to get a new A-Key...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] artlan:
I don't know if this was just a fluke or not, but I use m phone as a modem for my laptop, and after installing this radio, I couldn't access logmein.com from the laptop (worked fine from the phone though) as well as some other sites. I had a similar issue with Hotmail.com on a prior beta radio, so I downgraded to the last one DCD put up, and the sites work fine again on the laptop. Just my 2 cents for now. (might try the new radio again tomorrow when I have time to see if it was a odd fluke or not.)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Cycomachead:
Well I've been testing this for a day at my house and have seen no improvement. I still can barely make a call in places.

But I shouldn't discourage anyone. I'm 98.6% certain that my house is in the center of a cell vortex despite what the cell companies claim.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gbenj:
logmein.com works fine for me...on the way down to work used it to start a download of a show to my comp, then by the time i went to the gym a little later, i streamed it straight with orb. loved the functionality of my phone today. radio was fine.

gps was buggy as always, locked in a few minutes in the morning, couldnt get a lock around 6 pm.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] artlan:
Thanks, thats good to know :) Like I said, I plan to test it again at work tomorrow. I was on Logmein earlier today, but I couldn't remember if it was before or after the radio install. And much <3 for Orb. Watch my shows every day out in my car with that.

Edit: Re-flashed it this morning and all the sites that wouldn't load yesterday, load nice and snappy now. Must have been a fluke after all ^_^

Flash Issue?

I followed the instructions on:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TITAN_GettingStarted

Used Pocket Mechanic to format my 512mb MicroSD card (i don't have any other way to format my card unless it's in my Titan), but i couldn't chose a unit/cluster size of 1024, my options for FAT32 are:

512b, 1k, 2k, 4k, 8k, 16k, 32k, or 64k

i choose 1k FAT32, is that incorrect?

Then copied the .nbh file, rebooted into the SPL boot loader and it says Loading really quickly then staired at me TITA100 MFG SPL-2.40.0lipro CPLD-9 serial and never proceeded after serveral minutes, thoughts?

Anyways any help would be awesome, GC keep up the great work! :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drew826:
Did you name the .nbh file TITAIMG.nbh? If not, do so and try again. If so, it seems like you did everything you should have, so either your card isn't being recognized for flashing (less likely) or Pocket Mechanic isn't formatting your card to the exact specs that the bootloader wants (more likely). You chose the right cluster size. You might just have to find a way to format your card in Windows, which might require purchasing a USB-microSD adapter.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Keystone:
4KB or under works for the cluster size, but you will need to format the card on a PC (edited the Getting Started Wiki page to reflect the formatting info of the Titan GPS page). None of us have yet been successful in formatting a card on the PPC and then use that card to flash.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scotcha12345:
Radio

If I took this .exe which I found in the Vogue forum:

RUU_PPST_Vogue_SPRINT_WWE_3.03.651.2_Radio_3.42.30 _AM_NV_2.04_Ship.exe

Installed that, and reflashed with 3.2.0 rom / kitchen (either)

Would that update the radio for the Mogul, or is it significantly different and I should wait for a .exe for the Mogul or flash from Storage(at work so that's not an option for now)?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] calash:
I was able to flash after formatting a 2gb Micro-SD card in Ubuntu. I used gparted that comes with it, and left everything as default.

Not sure if there is a version of this that will run on PPC or not.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
No this will NOT work. Do not even try to attempt it. Everyone out there reading this, take warning as well.

The Titan Radio 3.42.30 has been PORTED to the Titan. First of all, RUU_PPST_Vogue_SPRINT_WWE_3.03.651.2_Radio_3.42.30 _AM_NV_2.04_Ship.exe has a completely different SPL than the Titan and wouldn't flash to begin with. But if for some weird flaky reason you were somehow able to get it to flash, the Vogue radio (different than this radio) would be installed and seriously screw your phone.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jschramm97:

Thats what i figure, I was just being impatient, my Wife's laptop has an SD card slot so i'll format it from there this evening and try again. Thanks!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scotcha12345:
Thanks

Great,

Thanks for the info GC. I'll steer clear.

On a related note. What exactly do these radio updates do? Obviously the hardware is set and unchanging, so it phases me how we're able to improve GPS performance or the ability to get a cell signal. What's actually changing? I'd be interested to know more either from anyone here, or similarly if there is anywhere to read about this.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
Do you know what firmware is? If not, go read up on it. When you flash a new "radio", you're obviously not changing the actual physical hardware. You're flashing firmware.

I was out at Frys and picked up a kingston 2gb card and flashed that way (for some reason my sandisk 2gb wont work). GPS seems about the same, phone reception seems a bit better though.

I still have the same problem I have always had with GPS however, about half the time when I start an app that opens the GPS ( google, microsoft live, GPS Viewer, etc ) the phone will soft reset on its own within a few seconds. Anyone ever heard about this? Ive checked the assorted GPS threads both here and at ppcgeeks and Ive never come across anyone else with the problem. Ive been hoping the updated radios would help but so far they havent.
