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.

unlock GPS for Verzion xv6800 with stock Rom or with the MR1 rom.

First of all I would like thank Skywing for writing this GPS Application
Gateway for the xv6800 phone with stock rom or upgraded MR1 rom..
This thread is to show my thanks and to help new ppl like myself
find this app easer.. It took me about haft a day searching two forums
just to find what I was looking for .. so I hope this will help other
new ppl find what they are looking for much easer ..
Again this application was written by “Skywing” and someone wrote
the easy install CAB for his app .. also like thank “gc14“ for writing
the tutorial ..
This Application aGPS aka GPS Server aka (Valhalla Legends GPSServer.cab)
Will allow your 100% stock rom or MR1 rom on your xv6800 Phone
to access GPS signal via 3rd party application e.g. MS Live search, Google maps etc..
without the need to unlock the phone or do anything to the phone other than
simply loading the GPSServer.cab file ..
For step-by-step install info. go to: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VerizonAGPSFix
To download the CAB go to: http://rapidshare.com/files/165096506/Valhalla_Legends_GPSServer.cab
Show your thanks to Skywing, go to his thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424387

I have personal testing this code on my xv6800 with stock ROM, then I
upgraded to the MR1 ROM from HTC for the xv6800 with WM 6.1 and
install the GPSServer.cab and it works perfect for both ROMs without
doing any unlocking or running anything else other then just the GPSServer.cab
BTW for anyone with the stock ROM running WM 6.0 and would like to
upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1 .. you can download the MR1 ROM direly
from HTC
Again this is the, Verizon XV6800 ROM MR1
Release Date: 2008-08-23
go to: http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=82&cat=2&dl_id=99
If this link does not work you may need to set your “country” first, (top right of the page “select country” set to “United States”

wow .. update: also found out that gc14 made the CAB file as well..
Thanks again gc14
gc14 post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2625473&postcount=113

Thanks! It works very good with Google Maps
Is your WIFI works with WM6.1? After I installed MR1, my WIFI is not working anymore. I hope you might be able to help me.
TIA

to all that created this thank you, works flawless on the stock mr2 rom

can't get it to work..
Hi all! I followed this method a while back and had Google maps working great for quite some time! This past weekend I tried to use it with GPS and it couldn't find any satellites. I figured it was maybe too much cloud cover or other interference related to my location. Anyhow, yesterday I updated my XV6800 to MR2, installed the latest Google maps (3.0.0.12) and still cannot get it to find any satellites. after playing with the COM ports and location setting (currently COM4 and Loc ON) without success I installed GPS Toggle, which also cannot find any satellites.
Anyone have any suggestions to get this working again? Does this even work with MR2? I'd be happy to go back to MR1, though MR2 seems to be a little smoother and faster.
Thanks!

thanks drewcam888. I'll check it out this afternoon and let you know how I make out.
BTW, I was looking around my device and I found a different version of gpsapi.dll (hidden) in the Windows directory. I'm thinking this may be the problem. It won't let me modify it though, as it's a system file. I can view it using SKTools, but not modify it.
Can you recommend a file manager program that'll let me move / copy / replace system files?
Thanks!

You can't modify a rom file or one that is created by the rom itself. Or at least I don't know how

Hello,
I'm pretty new here and new to the XV6800. I have a rom version that I downloaded from htc site that under device info reads 3.57.605.1 I don't know what MR1 or MR2 is or is mine an MR3?? Also I have a Radio version of 3.37.75?? My question is can I install this to get GPS or AGPS working on my device? Do I have to install a different radio to get it working?
Thanks,
Chris

Read the thread for a while that drewcam8888 lists above "adapter program to ......" and then make sure you change the registry settings as it describes for Valhalla in the posts from the past couple of days. I believe I posted #627 which has the places to edit for Valhalla. Listen to what others say to make sure you have everything right.

mine failed around the same time but using a different set of cab files which had worked flawlessly on both previous installs of MR1 . Is this perhaps something from verizon?....Anyway having not installed from a wrar file before how do you install the valhalla cab when the redirects disconnect from the server?

I have a xv6800 and i got it last week, the person that i got it from updated the rom. a couple days ago i cleared the storage, which i guess is a hard reset, but i wanted to know if that resets my Rom
thanks
Tyve

resets to a fresh install of your current rom. It removes all none rom files.

so do i hav to re-hack the rom to use google maps?
i have no idea wut im doing,
thanks

Yes you do

dang, that sux. thanks a bunch

my ROM version is 3.57.605.2 does anyone know if that is hacked or not?

Not it is stock verizon MR2

ok, do u know an easy way to hack it, im only 14 and i suk at hacking it

Is there a cab file to activate GPS?

Hi,
I have done multiple searches on several sites and have "struck out". I have an unbranded HTC 6800 (small carrier with no tech dept.) and was hoping there might be a cab file that will unlock the internal GPS antenna without risking a flash to a branded carrier ROM. There are quite a few carrier specific updates/ROMs that will unlock the internal antenna, but I would like to unlock the internal antenna without "becoming" a Verizon or Sprint customer.
Thanks!
BTW, Fantastic site. I don't post much but have learned "tons" from the community!

I would to know too

Please list your rom and radio versions. setting-system-device info.
If your radio is gps compatible then you might be able to try gps registry and qpst changes.

If you have a stock rom you might be able to try Skywing's Valhalla Legends GPS cab or something like that. It's what I run on my stock Verzion XV6800 and it works like a charm. Good luck!

Try this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424387&page=12
Hope that helps!

vx 6900 gps ?
i have a verizon 3.37 radio with nsffans 6.5 rom v7 . what do i need to do to get gps to work with google maps ? please help .

If you are really using a 6900 try looking in the vogue side of the forum or here.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=48

Thanks for the link! I have just read through 30+ of the 62 pages and it appears that this is only for verizon and WM 6.1? Will this work with a non-Verzion Titan with WM 6.0 and a non-GPS radio?
Thanks again!

I dont understand what you are asking or talking about in reading 30 pages. I don't see that I gave you any links. Please give me more info on your current and past setup. Or please ask your question again.

drew,
I was referencing this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...424387&page=12 above (post #5). As I mentioned above, I'm with a very small carrier and there is no offical upgrade "path" to WM 6.1 (and no downgrade option) and no "carrier cab". I have been reluctant to upgrade to a custom, or "other" carriers ROM.
Probably unrealistic on my part, I was just hoping that there was a recent develoment that might allow me to use the internal GPS antenna without an upgrade.
Thank you for responding!

You cant have gps with an upgrade to 6.1 on the mogul. So till you find out how with your carrier you can't do gps.

drew,
Thank you for the clarification. I greatly appreciate the response!

xv6900

does any know of any good 6.5 roms for xv6900

Best wm 6.5 roms
You can try any of NFSFANS roms theyre pretty good and he has like a tutorial on how to install them, im guessing you have the CDMA touch so make sure you get the correct cab so you dont brick your phone.

yes its verizon
any links?

Here is his latest build. VERY fast and stable. Everything works perfectly. Enjoy!

help i installed it, everything went fine but when it restarted it just stayes on the verizon bootscreen and wont let me do anything

did you run the unlocker first?
first run
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20370
RUN THE 2.31 UNLOCOKER. NOT THE .41!!!!
follow directions on screen. then... your good to go to have any rom. MAKE SURE YOU PLUG AND UNPLUG WHEN YOUR SUPPOSED TOO.
then. flash the nfsfan's rom.
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

thats the entire rom though. so if you used the wrong bootloader this should fix it.

GPS
Not to start another thread, but I STILL can't get the damn gps to work. I have NFSFAN's latest rom. Still no GPS. I have followed every guide I can find. I have radio 3.42.30
