Hey guys,
I've been doing a lot of reading on the forums here, and finally decided to go with the DCD 3.0.4 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=385336
I installed the SPL-2.40.Olipro, did the Sprint ROM for the Radio, then did the DCD 3.0.4
The issue I have now is that it's connected as an international roaming connection, with the triangle at the top. I couldn't find anything about this, so I decided to post. I did ##778 and set the NAM Name and verified that the MSID and the ESNs were correct, and they were, and I did *22803
Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance,
Okay, so I think I found out what I did... I let the Sprint ROM load the files after installing it... Which changed the EPST(?) What I don't know, is how to fix this..
You should be able to just reflash your stock rom. You may have to relock your phone. Activate it again. Run olipro again, and reflash the sprint rom. Once it starts to boot put it back into the boot mode. Reflash DCD's rom - reactivate. You should be good to go.
EDIT: So the ROM did have the Radio built in... contrary to what I read in another thread. Working on starting over. Thanks for the help.
Even on the stock ROM after a hard reset I'll often get the roaming triangle. I set it to Sprint Only in the roaming menu and after a few minutes it's OK .

Hi all.
with the 6800-
I flash nexvisions rom and the new radio. After reading ppcgeeks tutorial, I thought I needed to run IOTA.cab to get my data settings even though I'm on Verizon. Well, after doing a *228 and calling verizion to get my calls to go though, my data is now screwing up.
The problem is- when I run internet explorer (with google mobile as my homepage) it chokes after about 50 K downloaded and wont finish. The data connection is lousy. If I try to close out my data connection using the connection manager it comes up with a warning about IOTA data errors.
Now I know that vzw users do not need IOTA. Is there a way to reset what IOTA does to your data connection settings without doing a hard reset? I can't find a 'unintstall' IOTA.cab anywhere.
Anyone have any ideas?
Cook ROM as Verizon, not Sprint?
Maybe just run the ROM again
I can not think of a good way to get it all out but maybe someone has an idea. I am on VZW and it worked perfectly.
You should reflash.
Perhaps you shouldn't use Nexvision's ROM since it obviously has Sprint "parts" in it that seem to be interfering.
Here is what worked and is still working very well for me. I have no data or voice issues at all right now:

In fact, all is well.
I flashed back to the stock VZW ROM (third time I think), I made sure all of my provisioning issues with Verizon were worked out (finally had the tech "kick the switch").
1) Then I proceeded to load the 2.4 bootloader,
2) then the 3.16 Unauthorized Sprint ROM w/ radio,
3) then finally installed a cooked DCD 2.3.2 ROM.
Things to note:
1) I never let the Sprint ROM boot up (this is VERY important!!)
2) I had no signal so ran *22802 then hit End as soon as it connected
3) Still no signal after reboot
4) No A key, MSID, or MDN issues, but I did re-enter the MSID and MDN as discussed in other threads
5) After re-entering MSID and MDN then after reboot I had signal (even though they are there and correct, type re-enter the information anyway)
6) never had to run *228 to OTA program (in the past programming with *228 has reversed the effect of re-entering the MSID and MDN)
In general, I feel that the OTA from VZW sends down some programming that conflicts with the 3.27 radio...but I have nothing to prove that.
GPS is running great (I just loaded the AstroGPSLauncher)
Not sure about Rev A. It does seem snappy. What's a good site to test from the phone?
I'm happy and not re-flashing until a solid radio for Verizon arrives.

Thanks everyone for your feedback.
First- I'll try a hard reset first and see if that clears it up.
Then if that doesn't work, I'll try reflashing nexvisions rom and see if that clears it up.
If that doesn't work, I'll reflash trying the dcd rom.

If that doesn't work, you should do like I did and start with a clean slate. All the reflashing of ROMs and radios did me no good. Whatever issues I had were not going away with just another flash from one ROM to another.
Hard resetting fix everything.
I'm just curious, but after flashing the newest sprint rom and radio, I noticed that everytime I do a soft reset, I automatically get the roam triangle. This stays on for about 10 minutes till it goes to EVDO, or 10X. I am currently using the newest DCD 3.2.0 Rom, for Sprint, and there is no difference. Does anyone know how to prevent this from going into Roam mode when you do a soft reset?
Hopefully this hasn't been answered, and I missed it. If it has, I appologize. Thanks in advance.

Do you know what version of the PRL you're using? It shows up as "PRL version" under Start->Settings->System->Device Information. Someone along the line you might have ended up with an outdated one. 60613 is the latest for Sprint EVDO-capable phones.

I can confirm that with 3.2.0 (yes...I've finally moved on from my own kitchen based from Sprint's 3.35.xxx.... ) a soft-reset consistently reverts back to Standard for the Phonerefered Serving System. Over a soft-reset it should retain the choice of Home Only.
In the registry under HKLM\Software\OEM\InitProv\PhoneSetting what can I set to retain Home Only but retain the option to switch back to Standard when travelling?
This is an issue for me since I live by the water and the US is just across a straight leaving my phone often switching between my local and a US carrier.

we probably need the previous version initprov.dll. i will look tonight. thanks for finding this
You're welcome, DCD.. Thank you!
This afternoon I may also have a chance to build a new ROM with a familiar initprov.dll and see if that resolves it.
With 3.2.0 on my Titan I just replaced the initprov.dll (v1.25.0.0) with the v1.21.0.0 (from the March Sprint release and what I was first using in my kitchen), rebooted, but still faced the problem of the phone defaulting back to Standard rather than retain Home Only.
That was without rebuilding a ROM with the older initprov version in.
...to note, the April Alltel ROM was also using this latest v1.25.0.0.

Certain dll's are self registering and some aren't. It's probably going to take a little more than just a copy/paste.

Worth a shot.. Can't rebuild until I get home......
I realize now that it is related to the radio rom. Originally I installed the NEW factory firmware/rom upgrade. Well that was when it started. So thinking it was a factory rom issue, I installed DCD 3.2.0. Still doing it. So I decided to downgrade back to 3.1.6 which was what I WAS using before the upgrade.. Still doing it. So.. .It has to be the newest radio rom. I am going to downgrade the radio back to what I had and see if that fixes it.

That's not necessarily true. It could have been something that was installed during the 3.56 factory customizations. Try flashing Sprint 3.35 stock rom/radio, let the customizations run. Then flash 3.2.0 and 3.42.02 or 3.42.30. If you're going to use the 3.56 stock rom/radio to flash 3.42.02, that's ok, just DON'T let the customizations run this time.
that was the issue with mine I ran the sighned sprint cab from the extended rom from the 3.56 "official" rom that was part of no2chems pre 2.2 after i did that my phone was stuck in roaming... Thinking it was the radio i downgraded 1 step @ a time from the 3.42.03 back to 3.39 still roaming went back to the stock radio that came with the 3.35 release still roaming when phone was booted. Figured it might be rom related @ that point so i reflashed to good ole 5069k left battery out after flash for 2 min... first boot it was roaming and would not lock onto a tower in sprint only mode... my muerom boot agent always runs the sprint carrier settings 4 me and on my second boot still no sprint signal only digital roam.. In a last ditch effort I reflashed via activesync the whole 3.35 stock rom/radio ... and wala all was fixed booted right up and even b4 the sprint custimization was started i had the evdo icon and no roaming triangle. Leaving the 3.35 stock rom on there i went forward 1 step @ a time radio wise and even with 3.39 and 3.42.02 i still got sprint coverage and evdo icon and connection. so i re-flashed to the nue 2.2 preview let it do tis sprint thing on first boot. then i did not go in and eun anything from the extended rom. No more roaming triangle. Something in the 3.56 exended rom i ran (sprint sighned whatever) Changed something in epst that dod not get reset even with flashes and hard resets till i relfashed back to stock 3.35 relaease full with radio from activesync.
So my suggestion would be that u can run the newer radio and roms just be sure to let your carrier settings run but don't touch files in the extended rom esp the file mentioned bc it stuck me in roaming and it would not get a sprint signal (home) for anything even after just letting it sit. and when setting roaming option to sprint only I would not get any bars @ all just the animated dots nest to the signal icon.
So it can't be anything in the new rom or settings in the new rom that is doing it nor the radio bc when downgrading back to stock radio from march update it did the same thing.
To fix your going to need to do a fill rom/radio flash then just pick your fav flavors after its flashed and has booted up the second time.
Boy, am I glad y'all started a thread on this. I've been trying to figure out what was wrong since this came out. My first flash of the new rom caused mine to be stuck in roaming, and sometimes it won't even come out.
I'll try what you guys suggested.
Customizations = Extended Rom
That's exactly what I said.
Ok, things a little different now. I reflashed back to the stock 3.35 Rom and let customizations run.
Then flashed just the new radio 3.42.30 from SD card
Last I flashed just the dcd 3.2.0 ROM and the carrier cab, and now no more roaming after the soft reset.
So, maybe the problem is in that radio included with the new 3.56 ROM
As long as I got it working, I'm happy

Again, it's not the radio. It's in the customizations from 3.56.

If all we had to do was not let the customizations run, why didn't someone just say that? I've been asking about this for like 3 days now.
When I tried flashing the 3.56 rom without the Customizations it still would roam, so go figure

That's because you've already let them run. They don't go away after a reflash, the same way Verizon users who let them run can't just reflash their rom to make it go away. You need to flash sprint 3.35, let THOSE customizations run. Then reflash 3.2.0.
Before you do anything though, you DO have Sprint right?
Hello everyone! I have searched a lot and after about 6 flashes back to stock and retrying I can't seem to get this to work.. Please I have searched a lot and I am just frustrated now. Here is what I am doing. I unlocked with 2.40 spl, then run sprint rom. Now I don't let it customize. 3.2 rom. then telus cab. I run auto programming on phone *22803 , 1, 1 and show successful. Phone work but no data connection. called telus and re did login for data network phone#@1x.telusmobility.com and esn number. still no data. Can someone who has the latest rom working on their mogul please give me exact instructions or lend me a hand. PLEASE PLEASE. Oh if I relocka and run telus stock rom it all works fine. That is where I am now
Cheers all!!
hey man sorry my details are kinda crappy been awhile since i did it from a stock ROM but i had the same issues...maybe do a search for my posts here and look at them they might be more helpful then my memory....
anyways get your phone locked again and back to stock telus just U NEED to do this so you know you are starting fresh...then unlock and flash with the sprint ROM to get the GPS radio u are after....then re flash with the ROM of your choice if i remember correctly there is a step in 2.40-olipro that you are not doing right where it says disconnect or reconnect or something.....but every time you do it wrong go back to stock everything.......you'll get it man trust me look at my old posts i think i said what i did wrong...and follow the instructions perfectly there is one that is easy to miss if i remember correctly
found my post for u http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381982
and look here too
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1369027
i was unlocking the phone wrong and having the same problem so make sure u careful then and remember to relock after u mess it up.....
Hey Thanks so much. It is my epst settings. When I did the sprint upload I let customization go so. going back to stock worked buy everythime I went to dcd titan upgrade something kept changing even if I did not let the sprint customization run. Well I wrote down all my setting and re flashed 7th time to 3.27 and 3.16 and changed the epst settings. It is working now to flash to 3.42.20 will hope it stays this time

Among other possible problems, you definitely applied the wrong radio. v3.27 of the CDMA radio from February was only intended for builds off of a very early and leaked pre-release Sprint testing ROM.
Where did you get informatino to flash to that radio version?
ever since I installed the rom, my wifi stopped catching signals completely. now I just added the data plan on my phone, and the data isnt working either. Any idea what the problem could be?
EDIT: ALSO I have a verizon phone, yet when I soft reset, Alltell shows up instead of the Verizon Logo. Maybe this has something to do with it
fix
What radio are you using?
Have you tried hard resetting and skipping the customizations? I don't see why Alltel would be displayed if you did a fresh ROM flash, as there is nothing associated with AllTel unless you installed the wrong CAB.
Best bet would be: Go to the Radio 3.40.30 thread, download the Unlocker for Olipro 1.2 and most recent Radio...flash the Unlocker, let it get into Boot Loader mode, then flash the Radio. Then it will boot up again, and flash your phone with Olipro 2.4, then flash the 3.2.3 DCD rom. Install carrier cab, and the Arcsoft one if you need it....then you're done.
The data connection may be another story...but I'd first get the ROM up and going, with the ability to make phone calls / send texts.

Actually that's the funny part, I CAN make calls and texts. I didn't brick my phone or anything, GPS works fine too. The only problem is the WIFI and data connection - should I still go ahead and try that new rom?
problem
I would definitely suggest the whole procedure, from Radio flash and then further to the ROM reflash.
If after you've done all those things, and your WiFi is jacked, at least in my mind, the things probably broken.
Data connection could just be a matter of password being incorrect, or needing a DMU reset. See if you can do the flash to get the WiFI working first.

Do you have aim/msn or something? I updated to DCD 3.2.3 and the wifi works great now. But the data network keeps saying I have the wrong username and password. I even called up verizon for that and they dont know what the problem is. I bet it's incredible simple :/ What is a DMU reset????
Thanks a bunch in advance
EDIT: Also my phone is RIDDLED with alltel settings when it should be verizon, even AFTER all these updates!! I went into the EPST and a bunch of things had alltel. need help fast :/

Ok pm'ed you back! let me know if you get my email, if not i'll just post it here
I've upgraded and changed to:
NueRom v2.2
Chose Verizon, checked the EPST. Everything looked fine, but the m.IP Default Profile is still [email protected].
I was able to get an A-Key (and a password???) from the rep. The A-Key is pretty long.. does that sound about right? Anyway DATA still doesn't work. Any help is greatly appreciated, I'm trying to get this up and running as soon as possible
I have a VZW XV6800. Getting a replacement device so I decided to practice flashing a new radio/ ROM. Last night was my first time! lol and I was up until 4am trying to follow the guide. I was flashing wby USB. What seem like pretty straight forward directions had me baffled. I ended up with a updated radio and a sprint rom.
I understand the order to be
unlock
update radio
update rom
install carrier CAB
I couldn't find the compatable Radio without the Sprint ROM. So I flashed that and then Flashed dcd Titan 3.2.5 ROM and installed vzw cab. Got the phone to work but could'nt get the data to work. Also I noticed that my phone had switched to 1x instead of EV.
PLEASE help! I have my new phone and want to flash correctly this time. I also have to flash my old phone back to stock before I return it. I swear im not retarded! I only hope its easier the second time.
If you are new to this, and don't wanna brick your phone, then install these in this order...(HardSPL rom, Radio rom, Phone rom, Carrier cab)
1.Here is the HardSPL ROM:
http://www.lifesnotsogood.com/dcd1182/titan/spl/titan_SPL_2.40-olipro.exe
2. Here is the radio rom:
http://lifesnotsogood.com/dcd1182/titan/radios/Titan%20Radio%20ROM%203.42.50.rar
3. Here is the phone rom:
http://www.lifesnotsogood.com/dcd1182/titan/roms/dcd_titan_3.2.5.exe
4. Here are the carrier cabs:
http://lifesnotsogood.com/dcd1182/carriers/
Do all that, from the beginning, and you will be fine. (Also, showing 1X or EV will depend on your location)
After flashing, if you have no data you need to call verizon, tell them you hard reset your phone and data does not work. Request they reset your data services. If you get the message "Not authorized" while trying to make a call.. you need an AKey Reset.
To avoid this:
While you still have your old phone.....
1) Log into your verizon account... switch activation to your old phone.
2) Flash your new phone following the instructions already posted.
3) When you are finished, switch activation back to the new phone.
This should reset your Akey and data services so you dont need to call verizon to get them to work... As long as you have two phones, you can switch back and forth.
On my last replacement I kept the old phone for about 45 days.. was starting to wonder if I actually needed to send it back
Also when you post, put a real description of your issue in the title.. you'll get more reads and replies that way.
Thank you both! I plan on having time to flash Saturday. I will let you know how it goes. BTW are there any tips or tricks to getting a faster connection from my vzw aircard?
Once they give you an A-Key to manually type in, you will never need another one.
I have flashed my phone 100 times since I got my first A-Key, ane never had to call them back or do that activation-switch trick. My unlimited data works 100% on first boot after a rom and radio flash everytime.
