Roll-back from Verizon Official WM 6.1 ROM & GPS - Touch CDMA General

I foolishly upgraded to the recently released WM 6.1 ROM from Verizon, apparently Verizon's locked down the GPS so you can only use VZNavigator. There's a work-around, but I still like my custom ROM better anyway.
So, my question is, once I ran the Verizon ROM did it update the firmware for the GPS chipset and this that what locks down the GPS, or do they do that in windows? Can I go back to a custom ROM and have a working GPS, or do I need to (and can I) re-flash with another carrier's ROM first to roll-back firmware in GPS?

What? Every user with the VZW ROM has GPS, including myself. Where did you get the ROM from?

GPS never worked on my XV6900 with the VZW ROM...
See this thread here for info on making the GPS work http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424387, and an article here http://www.phonenews.com/verizons-htc-xv6900-update-packs-punch-were-offering-it-early-5417/ dated 11/11/08 - maybe I'm missing something though (maybe I'm in the wrong forum? )
I've since tried using an older alltel ROM, then going back to my cooked ROM with no luck. I seem to recall reading somewhere though that it wasn't necessarily a good idea to roll back firmware, so I re-ran the VZW rom, skipped customizations, then put a cooked ROM back on, tried this fix http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VerizonAGPSFix, which worked previously, but still no luck.

latest titan ROM

Sorry I didn't search guys... But real quick, what is the latest Titan ROM & where can I get it? I'm currently running the old 2.14 ROM. What are the advantages of upgrading to the new one? Excuse my noobedness... lol
Oh, my provider is ALLTEL by the way...
Latest ROM
Well the latest TITAN ROM is Sprints 3.35 available at the HTC America page, but if your looking for something to work with alltel you'll have to go see whats been cooked up by folks like DCD or NEX....

You can save alot of time just by doing a search (at least try to do a search first)
Check the Titan Upgrades forum for all the information you need.
Thanks. I looked in there but I was a little confused about if carrier mattered. Thanks!

I really shouldn't do this since I'm a Sprint guy but it doesn't look like there is much Alltel help around here. The steps are fairly simple ( make SURE you double check on the upgrade threads)
1. Write down all your phone info (MSID, etc.) in case you need to reprogram the phone later.
2. Upgrade to the latest Sprint ROM (this is basically to get the new Radio with GPS capability)
3. Load SPL 2.40-olipro bootloader (Extremely important! - DO NOT attempt to load a custom ROM without this bootloader installed)
4. Load any Custom ROM you want (most Custom and Kitchen ROMs will have an Alltel specific ROM)
Enjoy.
(just to be safe, if you are running Windows, I'd do this on a XP machine.)

TELUS HTC P4000 (Canadian TITAN Counterpart)

Good morning Everyone,
I was looking into information on updating my Cell phone ROM as after some reading and searching I found out that this phone is GPS capable (Why they would sell it with the functionality disabled is beyond me.) On the Official HTC website I did find a new update that was released 08/06/2008 at the following link. CLICKY! . I am wounder if anyone else is having a problem downloading this file and installing it? I receive an error saying the file is corrupt and I should download the file again. I have tried downloading the file from two separate computers, tried all three mirror sites (US, Europe, Asia) and last but not least tried using three different web browsers. Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Safari for Windows.
I am curious if anyone knows of another mirror site for this newly released update that is working? Or of another way I can update to the same version. I am unfamiliar with the ROMs that are on this website (I could figure it out but am uneasy about installing something unofficial.) Any help would be greatly appreciated.
PS: I also noticed that the file name "-HTC P4000 (Telus)-Telus_HTC_P4000_WM6_07252007.exe" Has an old date on it? I am hoping they just rebuilt a previous update, or they have not actually posted the new update and still have an old one which happens to not work. Just an observation I noticed.
PSS: I have sent in a technical help request through the online process of HTC asking for a link to a working .exe but I tend to find that out of the norm requests such as this do not turn out very well with corporations whose support team are really only knowledgeable in standard help desk things IE: I'm too stupid to turn on my phone can you help me?
Did you follow the instructions here?
http://www.telusmobility.com/on/business_solutions/htc_p4000_upgrade_xp.shtml
I did a while back and it worked. If not, just switch to DCD's, it's awesome. Telus's 6.1 ROM doesn't enable your GPS.
Ya that is currently the ROM I am running, Maybe I am just mixed up. I looked at the HTC website for the TELUS rom and noticed the date for release was 08/06/2008 so I was under the assumption they had released an updated ROM that was a newer version then 2.13.661.2 which I am already running. One that would also patch the GPS (just a guess). However, I guess I will look into the DCD roms and see if I can fumble through the guides to get it loaded. Thanks anyways.
telus p4000 rom
I have a P4000 running on DCD 3.2.2 and Radio 3.42.2 gps enabled internet sharing enabled and many other stuff... this is just roocking the place.. Just forgot the official Rom and go for dcd you just have to follow all instructions be aware and youll anjoye all youre gona do with your phone
HTC P4000 rocks again!
Being half way through custom install (with all nightmares and mistakes ) I found this official update too. Confirm too: everything works as expected.
Took a while for GPS to pick up in Richmond Hill, Ontario, but the it worked like a charm!

2nd that. Upgraded from the old v2 and now to this one GPS and everything worked great with Google Maps.. I didn't bother stopping that customization thing like I've read in other post. Loaded that HTC home Plugin v2.1 on it and its fine.

Rollback from 6.1 to 6.0 (vzw xv6800)

Is the original WM 6.0 ROM for the vzw xv6800 up on the vzw or htc site?
(I'm paranoid so I really would like to download it from one of those two sites.)
Or are there tools that will allow me to copy the ROM out to later restore?
I ask because I'm about to upgrade to WM 6.1 and I want a rollback option before I take the plunge. Basically, I would hate to find out that after the upgrade one or more apps I have working on 6.0, stop working on 6.1. I would, specifically, hate to loose ability to make free international calls with Skype. (Has anybody got Skype working on 6.1?)
I don't think there is an easy way back as the 6.1 ROM also has a new Radio ROM and PRI version. You would have to contact VZW to get the 6.0 ROM but there is an unofficial one in the Wiki for the Titan. You would need to follow the process for taking your phone back to stock or 6.0 and see if it works or not. I would call VZW and see how they would advise on how to do this as well. Using both 6.0 and 6.1 I personally have not found any issues with any of my apps but there were a few that others did. You might check the build version in DCD's custom ROMs and see when his went to 6.1 and if people had any issues with any third party apps.
I'm going to give this a try anyway. After upgradeing to 6.1 from verizons link the bluetooth in my xv6800 wouldn't sync my contact listing with my 2007 mercedes e350 anylonger (it worked great when I was running the orig ROM with 6.0). And verizon support says I'm stuck at 6.1 whether I like it or not. UTC said the same.
So, my options are to either
A) upgrade my Benz to an 09 model that can handle this new bluetooth obx profile stuff so I can resync my contact list to my car. lol
B) pay for a new phone for $400 (yes, i'm so lazy I'd pay $400 just to get my contact list in my car back)
C) attempt to revert back to windows mobile 6.0
if I brick it or can't make any progress I go back to Verizon and show them I bricked my phone trying to upgrade and see what they say.
So, with that said, here is my plan. Someone correct me if I'm way off here or saying something you know or suspect will not work
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanStockHome
WILL THOSE INSTRUCTIONS NOT WORK? It says in section II, step 7...
"Press the CAMERA-POWER-RESET buttons at the same time in order to enter the bootloader. You should see a screen that says SPL-2.07.0000. If you see this text, your SPL has been sucessfully updated. If you do not, power of your phone and start over from step 1. To return back to your phone, press the RESET button. "​
well, I'm at 2.07.0000 right now so I should be good to proceed with the remaining instructions, correct?
OR... do I need to go thru the hassle of first moving up to 2.40 bootloader... then back down to SPL 2.07.0000 and THEN I proceed after section II step 7?
wish me luck.
Thanks,
Ben
Yep! It worked. I'm back at 6.0 now.
Just booted for the first time and it self installed all those first time CABs.
Now I'm restoring from an spb backup that I had made just prior to my upgrade to 6.1 and I should be back in business.
Ben
*edit: and my bluetooth in my phone is fully integrated and working my my mercedes once again... yay! 6.1 was pretty cool other than that one issue I was having. I wouldve left it at 6.1 otherwise. But its good to know you can go back if you really wanted too.
Thanks for blazing the trail, Ben. Skype stopped working for me (both the beta and the latest version). Looks like I'll be heading back to 6.0.
send me a message if you have any questions during your rollback. It is very simple to rollback to 6.0 from the verizon 6.1 ROM update.
Here is what I did:
I bought a 1 gig micro card and card reader and formated it to FAT32 from my laptop... format ?: /FS:FAT32 /A:1024
*where ? was the drive letter of my card
Then I downloaded the verizon stock ROM ruu_signed.nbh file and copied it to the root directory of the card... renamed it TITAIMG.nbh.
*edit: i used the stock verizon ROM from the wiki Titan Stock link... Verizon themselves do not have a 6.0 ROM, hard to imagine but thats what their support people said. Or maybe they think we, their customers, are too dimwitted to do anything with it.
plugged the card into the phone and then I pressed the POWER + CAMERA + SOFTRESET buttons (to enter into bootloader) and watched it do its stuff.
Then I had to call verizon support (from a different phone of course) after getting back into Windows 6.0 and they had me reprogram my phone by calling *228 and select option #1... then the support person gave me a new authentication number and they had to re-setup my ip address settings from their end.
WHen that was done and I confirmed I could make and receive calls and had data connection, I then restored my applications and contact info etc from a backup I took prior to upgrading to 6.1.
Then I was back to exactly how I was prior to upgrading to 6.1
The verizon guy was impressed. They hadn't heard of anyone being able to go back after upgrading to 6.1. Without the wiki links from this forum I wouldn't have been able to do it.
Thanks,
Ben
It really sux that vzw doesn't have a rollback for this. Not only does skype not work on this phone but I can't get my bluetooth GPS to work either. (yeah, I upgraded to 6.1 so I could use the built in aGPS but it does not look like aGPS works with mgmaps.) I'll be buying a 1GB microSD come Monday.
Thanks again, Ben.
well, I get to do this again. Yay!
I dropped my phone onto the cement sidewalk while I taking out the trash and damaged it pretty good.
Asurion (the insurance company I have my plan with) just shipped me overnight a new (refurbashed?) phone with the 6.1 already loaded. And yep, the OBEX bluetooth handsfree profile won't work with my car. The phonebook doesn't synch with my car. So I'm rolling back this one to 6.0 too.
Too bad really. I like 6.1. Anyone know if 6.1 is available on a cooked ROM but with the original vzw 6.0 bluetooth obex profiles?
Anyway, here I go again at least I know I can do it and I'm not stuck with 6.1
Ben
When you did the rollback to version 6.0, did it update your PRI back to the 1.35 version as well?

I don't know what PRI is or to see what version it is. If you tell me where to view that I'll post what I find.
here are some of the #s I do know...
SPL 1.04
R 1.30.60
D 2.09
By the way, the rollback worked on this refurbashed phone that came pree loaded with 6.1... the rollback worked the same as when I rolled back my original phone with the VZW mr1 download. Except this latest time I didn't have to reauthenticate the number. They did have to reset my ip info though but that took only a few minutes.
I don't know why but I find this thread amusing. The 2007 benz os works fine with whatever radio and rom combination I have ever used. Did you try and and do a stock verizon 6.1 update? Let me share something and its not just because I am a tech junkie. I can obviously see that there is fear in updating outside of stock vzn rom, but let me paint a picture for you; DCD'S ROMS ARE FAR MORE STABLE AND PRODUCTIVE THAN ANY CARRIER ROMS. They have less junk that you don't need crash much less and sync with everything seemlesly. A bluetooth receiver for a titan? Come on. Do you know that you have a built in gps one receiver in your titan that with verizon you can have locking in 30 seconds or less every time? It is not hard to update to one of these roms, especially if you have everything backed up. If you pm me I will glide you through the process. It may take you 1-2 hours of your time but you will be so much more satisfied with your titan.
PM sent!
which 6.1 ROM do you recommend?
Thanks,
Ben
Something interesting for those of you who are downgrading...
If you follow the instructions on the Wiki, not only will it revert the phone to true stock condition (rom version, prl, pri, etc) but it will also restore your gpsOne settings.
I had a phone that has the bad pickles on the screen... I was bringing it into the store for a replacement and upgraded to MR1. They were of course out of replacements and shipped a dummy phone and I was in need of GPS (I had issues with the adapter program and iGuidance and MR1) so I reverted back to stock (following the WIKI instructions) and then DCD 3.34. I was having issues with GPS after reverting back and when I checked the gpsOne setting that I had made with the QPST program, my prior changes had been overwritten.
Just an FYI...
yeah, I rolled back from the mr1 using the wiki instructions and it is a pieace of cake.
actually my phone is doing all I need it to do at the moment and I've been exceedingly pleased with it.
guess i'm somewhere between intermediate and advanced. ha.
I may get bored ovr the holidays tho and try out the DCD 3.34 rom.
Sweeny, I sent you a PM... can you confirm the DCD3.34 works with your mercedes 2007 and can synch the contacts? would be good to have confirmation before I spend a few hours only to have to rollback again
thanks
Ben

just to clarify, are you recommending against upgrade to 3.34 then because the gpsone setting gets overwritten?
thanks and I apologize for my newbish questions.
ben
well, I am an "intermediate" afterall. ha. I just read 30+ pages of the 3.3.4 rom and it looks great! but at the same time there are quite a few reports of people having some issues (keyboard, capslock, start menu dissapearing, etc.. that may all be install/user errors or related to version of the taskmanager they have).
But I've decided that since I'm intermediate level and admittidly a little "scared", I'm going to stick with my boring ole stock ROM at least for now.
Thanks for the info though guys.
*EDIT: well, I'm feeling adventurous. ha. I'm going to give the DCD 3.2.6 a shot tomorrow... and considering using radio 3.42.40 (or any reason not to try the 3.42.50?)... and the Nue SPL 2.47. Shoot, if it don't work all I've got to do is downgrade back to the stock vzw 6.0 right? I'm assuming I can still go back to that factory vzw 6.0 rom using the unlocked bootloader or at least using the lock 2.07 bootloader (the stock verizon bootloader is actually 1.04 and their isn't a way to get back to it after upgrading)
Oh, and blancmik... I did finally see where the pri # is in my EPST settings... yes, the rollback did set it back to 1.35_002
Also, thanks to Russ for the PM. appreciate the info.
This thread has shifted slightly off topic and I apologize for that... hopefully though it will give insight to the newbs who didn't like the factory MR1 6.1 UPDATE for whatever reason.
Thanks,
Ben
I've gotten really good at flashing ROMs, SPLs and Radios lately. lol. I've tried the VZW MR1 6.1 ROM... the DCD 3.3.4 and 3.2.6 both using the 3.37.20 radio and nue2.47 SPL. none of these 6.1 ROMs work with mercedes <=2008 model year bluetooth
Mercedes 2007 COMMAND system does not work with the obex bluetooth handsfree profiles in that the contact list from my phone does not synch with the mercedes. Incomming and outgoing calls work fine if I don't mind typeing them uing the dashboards keypad... but that defeats the purpose of the "hands free" profile.
With the good ole 6.0 factory rom and radio I'm able to use my steering wheel control buttons to scroll thru my address book, place/receive calls, adjust volume, speak thru the built in mic on the rearview mirror, and listen using the stereo system. Its one of my favorite features on the car and sucks that MERCEDES has not updated their firmware to handle 6.1 bluetooth profiles.
So I've once again, for the 3rd time, rolled back to vzw's original 6.0 ROM, RADIO and SPL (and pri too). I think I'll try some custom windows 6.0 ROMs sometime later but what I've got now works good for me (no GPS but I don't need it I guess)
THanks,
Ben

to check if you've unlocked it. put it into bootloader (power camera reset hole)
if you have verizon (you said it was verizon) then flash the latest verizon radio first im pretty sure its still 3.37.78 you can do that by searching the verizon wireless page and looking for updates for your vogue.
while flashing be sure not to let customizations run....... if you want to use the GPS in the future without going through hell to get it working again
then flash nfsfans latest rom

Hopefully it fixes my problems with sending text messages.
Will I lose my data (mainly my SMSes) if I install this update?
//EDIT -> according to several forums, I will lose my data...
and I haven't found any solution to backup my SMSes - yeah -.-
Is there anything I should regard or be aware of before updating?
//EDIT -> I just tried updating my phone and don't know how. It boots in the bootloader (RGB-test with some data on the device, SPL, the SD card, ...) just fine but the RUU doesn't find it.
I'm trying to flash it from a Windows XP machine - is there anything I have to take care of before I can flash it?
Or is there a real step-by-step manual for total dummies (I've flashed my HTC Diamond several times before without problems and have got no clue, why the PC won't find my Mozart).
The update process cancels with a CONNECTION ERROR [260].
will the hspa work on it from the tmobile usa after flashing this rom???

Be careful when uninstalling TMO apps
ROM is working very good, more fluent than stock version 1.25 - no problems found yet.
Still noticed the same problems with the stock ROM after uninstalling TMO shipped apps. When I uninstall Navigon the BING Map "Search" and "get directions" is gone/does not work anymore. When I remove "mediencenter" and plug in the headphones the phone is neither accepting nor able of making calls. However reflashing solves the problem - but you can't get rid of those TMO apps without losing functionality.

According to some other sites (just google the version number), this rom ships out with new devices. So no, it should not get you blocked, as it's a legit update.
Flashing is fairly easy: Backup everything you can, start you Mozart in Bootloader mode (pressing volume down while powering it on), plug it into your PC via USB, install the drivers if needed (done by installing Active Sync in XP, Windows Vista and newer should automatically find the needed drivers), start the updater and follow the instructions.
There is no official changelog, but several people think that the animations are smoother, the touchscreen reacts faster, ...
Seeing that there is no official changelog and the only thing we can do is assume what could have changed, I think there's no sense in discussing this. Especially since you can find several threads in other forums that discuss the changes in various lengths...
I haven't noticed any new problems after the update, so I guess it's at least as good as the previous version.
But this are just my thoughts

TMO_DE stands for T-mobile Germany
HTC_Europe is the generic software for the non branded devices.
Doesn't make any difference except the useless apps you get from t-mobile.
But after you delete them everything is the same.
And for the record, You don't have to flash your phone at first... Installing new firmware IS flashing. so you just run the RUU and make sure zune is running and phone is running, not in stand-by.
And be sure to backup everything you want to keep, haven't flashed my mozart, but i think you lose all data when you flash it.
Sure someone else knows that.

Thanks for the answer!
I thought that I have to set the mozart in the bootloader mode, in order to flash. When I was telling it "flashing" I meant something like hspl like we had to do on the HD2, befor we could flash custom roms or htc roms on it.
edit: and is there any possibility to go back to: 1.25.2250.5 firmware (now installed on my phone)?
and last question this 1.28 version will not breake my warranty, right? It'S a normal t-mobile rom, isn't it?
Guys, I'm not sure I fully understand everything so far.
I basically have a Telstra (Australian) HTC 7 Mozart. From what I gather, I cannot flash this on my device until it is unbranded, is that correct?
hello to everyone.
I have a htc t-mobile mozart Germany but I live in Venezuela and I can assure you and proven DepNet.com for both 1.25 and 1.28
posted on this page to a friend Football and run to perfection
and also I can tell you that my phone came with 1.25 and the 1.28 istale him but then return to 1.25 and all is well.
and the echo for several times trying to place the Spanish language and if anyone can help I'd appreciate it forever
@ WinUser009:
HSPL was needed because we used to flash cooked (and therefore custom-made) ROMs, which were not signed by HTC or any other company able to sign them. These ROMs are unmodified and signed, which is why you can flash them without flashing any unlocked HSPL first.
Bootloader-mode is just a different mode to boot in - it does not need any changes to your phone!
I don't think that there is a possibility to go back to 1.25.xxx - but honestly why would you want to? But I have to admit that I have not yet tried it...
As to the warranty: that's a complicated matter...
This firmware is not official and my new Mozart (I got a new one after sending it in) still had the 1.25 firmware installed (someone posted that newer phones should ship with the 1.28). So there might be a person detecting that you flashed it yourself, if they keep sending out new phones with 1.25 preinstalled.
However, the phone I turned in had 1.28 flashed and I have not received any complaints when I sent it in for a replacement. So I guess it is up to your shop but it should not pose any problems!
@ameel
You can flash as soon as one of these things happen:
- custom roms are released that don't check for the carrier information
- you unlock your phone (somehow)
- Telstra releases an update
But as of now you can't flash these T-Mobile roms on your Mozart.

Sorry, but I didn't understand your post. What did you try to tell / ask us?
I hope I could help you with some of your questions
