Hello everyone i Just got a xv6800 and am trying to flash to a newer rom...However i cant seem to boot into the bootloader it just hangs at Loading.... There is nothing installed its factory rom and settings
Thx in advance
How are you attempting to load into bootloader?
The way I saw on the forums....holding power and camera button and hittig the reset..i get the tri color screen then it goes to Loading... and just sits there dosnt do anything else
Do you have a microsd card in while trying this? If so, does it contain any .nbh files on it in the root directory? If so, do you have a TITAIMG.nbh file in the root directory?
The only way the bootloader would try loading something the way you're describing is if this is the case.
I agree with gcincotta.
If you are in fact trying to flash from the SD card though, most people have reported that it won't work using an SDHC card. It needs to be a standard (non high-capacity) card.
I did have a card in it..now i took the card out and it goes to tri color in the red i get tita100 and i the white i get serial...thats all it does now
Well i got it to go to usb but now the .exe file for the 2.40 unlocker wont run on x64 systems so i guess im out of luck huh
Did you already run the unlocker? If so, you should be ready to flash a custom ROM. It is normal to be stuck in the bootloader after an unlock. Just flash away.
If the unlock did not go successfully, you will have to try again, making sure to follow directions precisely (on a 32bit system preferably, less headaches). To unlock you must be booted up into Windows Mobile. You can try the exit bootloader program from the PPCGeeks Titan Upgrade forum, or try flashing a stock ROM to get back into WM.
Edit: You can tell if the unlock was successful by looking at the SPL in the bootloader (right under TITA100 MFG). It should now say SPL-2.40.Olipro. If it does not, try the steps above to get back into Windows Mobile.

You need to be more specific. Everyone's titan says TITA100. What SPL is installed? Post the entire contents of your screen and then we can get somewhere.
I have a new 6800 from Verizon.
software 2.09.605.8
firmware radio 1.30.60
pri ver 1.35.002
pri check 11ab822d
SPL-1.04.000
Do I need to unlock it first ?
Which unlocker do I use ? is it TitanUnlocker.exe
Then the way I read it I need to first flash the Sprint ROM 3.35.651.2
Then what ever rom I want after that.
I was able to udate to 2.52 rom...the 3.04 wasnt working correctly and it would not up date using *228..and there was no sound...i was not using the radio 3.35 because i heard people saying that it was a bad one to use...is there much difference in performace between 2.52 and the 3.04?
So I need to install Sprints 3.35.651.2 rom and not let the sprint customazations run.
Then use the unlocker 2.4
Then use DCD or No2Chem custom rom.

You are starting from scratch with an unlocked phone. Before rushing forwards you have some reading to do:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Titan
All of your answers are there.
Yes I have read many threads and think that is why I am so confussed. I upgraded from a 6700 which I had flashed to WM6 many times before.
I will follow your linked procedure.
Two questions.
Is my phone being stock and never flashed before locked or unlocked, and do i need to run Olipro 2.40 by executing Hard-SPL-MFG.exe or start with the Sprint Radio (3.35.04)
Also the tutorial says Upon its completion, press the power, camera and reset buttons to force the phone into the bootloader/SPL mode.
What will I see to let me know it is finished loading.
Thanks for your reply.

1st- update to 2.4 olipro
2nd- update sprint 3.35 rom (stop at the "tap the screen" customization screen) this gives you the radio
3rd- from customization screen start the 3.0.4 rom and flash that rom
Your phone will restart after loading and will boot into wm6.1
4th- Read untill you understand before flashing roms
After 2.4 olipro do I hit reset to let it boot up again or start the sprint rom while its still in bootloader mode

Does not matter, if you do it in rom it will force into bootloader anyway.
Ok up and running dcd 3.04
date 2-22-08
radio 3.35.04
I did not let sprint cutomazation run.
Tried to make a call and get message saying verizon can not authenticate and to dial #8899
Should I do that now?
Had to call VZW to get new A-Key
No GPS detected in google maps is there anything I need to do to set it up ?
Try installing VisualGPSce -- it's a good little & free diagnostics program too see GPS satellite reception.
....after seeing that running on COM4 at 4800 baud, then you should see a list of visible satellites. Now, whether or not you get a sufficient lock within the first half hour depend's upon your luck in the draw for a GPS functioning Titan -- GPS hardware-wise, not all are equal.

Here is a breakdown of what i did and whats happening.
1.2 ollipro installed already
loaded new radio
loaded new rom
Now the windows mobile 6.1 screen would come up and ask to tap screen but would reboot at this screen continously. I assumed this was happening because 1.2 ollipro was installed and not 2.4.
I then decided to reinstall my old radio and old rom and now the phone gets to the htc bootscreen and reboots immediately over and over again without getting far at all. What do I do?
For TELUS P4000
BOOTLOAD MODE
1. Try getting to the BOOTLOAD MODE by pressing POWER, CAMERA and RESET all a the same time
2. You should see at screen with red green blue white
New RADIO and CE ROM
1. Hard-SPL-240-MFG.exe/titan_SPL_2.40-olipro.exe (follow the instructions)
2. Run titan_radio_3.35.04.exe (very simple GUI instructions)
3. The titan will reboot by it's self, put it back in BOOTLOAD MODE
4. Extract dcd_titan_kitchen_3.0.0.rar to a directory and run BuildNB.bat (it takes a couple of min)
5. Select the stuff you want and don't forget you carrier (TELUS....)
6. Press the PLAY button (when finished, which is hard to see, when play is green) close the BuildOS
7. In a DOS windows it will build the CE ROM (follow the instructions)
8. Titan will reboot
i cant get 2.4 on there because i can get activesync up and when i get it to run through the boot load it gets to 100% in a split sec but leaves 1.2 on and not 2.4 even though it didnt record any errors
I'm having the exact same problem. Got the new Rom and radio installed. I had to go back to 1.2 to do it. But now i cant get 2.4 to install. I run the program it seems to install but still says 1.2 and is stuck on bootloader screen. even though it said itupdated to 2.4 anyone got any ideas on how to get 2.4 on there?
Try entering the Bootloader mode of Oliprio 1.20 and connect the USB to your computer.
Although it wont start an Active Sync session it will still allow you to load thing on such as a ROM or flashing program.
Well once you are in Bootloader and have a USB connection then try installing Oliprio 2.40
This might work.
Hi, ive done that and gone through the 2.4 install. after the RUU runs the progress bar goes across in like 1 second. it reports it successful but it still says 1.2 and is now stuck in the 1.2 bootloader. as if 2.4 never installed. any suggestions?

So you installed 2.40. Well once you installed 2.40 go into bootloader again and make sure it is 2.40 and then try flashing the Radio first and then the ROM.
This is how i did it:
Installed olipro 1.2
installed radio 3.35
installed dcd sprint 3.0
Now like everyone else it continually reboots cause of olipro 1.2. So i put it in bootloader and it says 1.20 spl. So now i go to install 2.4 Olipro. RUU runs and the progress bar goes to 100% in about 3 secs. AFter it goes to 100% the mogul screen flashes and it says olipro 1.2 as if 2.4 didnt install even though on my comp it says that ruu update was sucessful. So im confused. I have tried it on my computer(vista64) and my old one xp 32bit. When the batch file is running it says "no device connected. would you like to try again?" w/ a yes/no/cancel. If i hit yes it just loops. if i hitno it will ask me this about 4 times then RUU will load
Ok, for anyone stuck with an older version of olipro and the new radio:
While in the bootloader, load an earlier version of your carriers rom. This should let you boot again and will let you install the newest 2.4 olipro bootloader so you can flash the newer roms.
If you can't find an earlier version of your carriers rom you will need to find an older radio rom and an older custom rom and flash both seperately to get it to boot.

Instead of running the RUU right after installing 2.4 over 1.2 try canceling the RUU and then manually enter bootloader mode in 2.4 and then install the RADIO following the ROM.
I figured it out. feel kinda stupid. was trying to install 2.4 from the boot loader of 1.2 forgetting that it needs to install files over to the phone before it flashes. :/ thanks foryour help though
Furman69...
I'm having the same problem. Could you post a step by step?
Thanks
I think I bricked it.
Actually I think I made a bigger mistake. I'm a VZW user, and I flashed the sprint/htc update hoping I could just flash dcd on top of that = stupid. The radio settings were all f-ed up. So I believe I read in the dcd 3.0.0 thread to run the titan relocker and then flash the stock vzw rom. Big mistake. Once I relocked it, It wouldnt let me flash vzw 2.09 and now my phone's in bootloader saying
TITA100
SPL-1.06.0000
CPLD-9
I think I'm screwed because It doesnt have a rom on there, so I can even unlock it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Flashing the sprint update, then flashing dcd on top of it would have been completely fine if you didn't let the sprint customizations run...i've done it to 3 phones already.
I don't really get what you're saying though. Are you stuck in the bootloader? Can you boot into any kind of rom? What happens if you try and soft reset, does the phone do anything?

Yeah I wasn't that smart though . But yeah I'm stuck in bootloader. And I don't even know how to go about putting a ROM on there because it's locked. I've already tried to redo the Sprint/HTC 3.35 update, but to no avail. It says wrong vendor. I don't know... It's brand new too, that what sucks about it.
I finally got it to work after going back and forth installing old roms and radios and then installing 2.4 and then the radio and rom as ususal.
To be honest with you guys i beat myself up because i should of done it like this from the get go 2.4,radio, rom, and thats it but i read about people having trouble and dcds post, and I just went through more trouble that way. Thanks for the help.
If you're stuck in the bootloader, download the exitbl program to forcefully exit the bootloader. This will reset the phone. Tell me what happens after that. Does it boot any sort of rom? Does it just hang at a blank screen? Let me know.

I had a similar experience. Here is what I did.
I had the following installed before I started.
2.40 bootloader
3.27 radio
DCD 2.3.2 rom
I wanted to upgrade to the latest and greatest so I did the following. (This was before anyone knew about the 2.40 radio flashing issues.)
Flashed to DCD 3.00.
Failed Trying to flash 3.35 radio.
Read some more and like you tried to relock my phone using titanrelocker
Locked bootloader
Failed trying to flash Verizon Radio (downloaded from ppcgeeks.com)
Failed trying to flash Verizon Rom 2.09 (downloaded from ppcgeeks.com)
So at this point I was stuck in the original 1.06 Verizon locked bootloader, but I had 3.27 radio and DCD 3.00 rom.
Execed titan_exitbl.exe (included in 2.40 bootloader) in vista which returned a nice error. (Error accessing USB blah blah blah)
Execed titan_exitbl.exe in XP with ActiveSync and phone rebooted
Phone booted into Windows Mobile 6.1 and rebooted itself.
So I plugged the mini USB cable back in hopeing it might prevent it from rebooting. Luckily it did.
Reunlocked Bootloader using 1.20 olipro
Flashed 3.35 Radio
Flashed 3.00 DCD Rom again. (Just in case)
Phone booted into Windows Mobile 6.1 with mini usb cable still plugged in.
Upgraded bootloader to 2.40.
Re-Insert my NAM settings into EPST and rebooted.
*228 to get latest PRL.
Has been rock solid since.
Hi there, I have very minimal experience with this stuff so I will provide as much detail as possible...
I had previously successfully programmed my HTC6800 back in March by unlocking with Olipro 2.4, then I flashed the radio with 3.27 and used dcd 2.3.2 for Bell on it. Now my memory is a little foggy as that was several months ago however I made it through the process fine. This encouraged my to try to update again today. I tried following the steps in the wiki as I could not find the guide I had used previously. I already had Olipro 2.4 so I was good at that step. I then tried running the newest radio update and it would not take. It gave me an error. I reset the phone and tried several times but to no avail. I then tried putting on dcd3.2.0 which went fine. THe phone rebooted and I made a test call and everything was fine. I however wanted the new radio update still so I thought I'd take another crack at it... it still would not update. In the wiki it said about relocking the phone and putting it back to the factory ROM and starting again. So I did this, I downloaded the relocking util and followed the instructions to relock the phone. That went fine... Olipro is gone and is shows the 1.06 like it's supposed too... next it said to put the factory ROM back on... well, I am will Bell and the link for the factory ROM is dead! I can't get it anywhere!!!
So currently my 6800 sits as the 3 colour screen with 1.06 relock on it and does nothing else. It has radio 3.27 on it and dcd 3.2.0.
Is there any way to fix this?????
Run this first to exit the bootloader and get into windows mobile. Then check out which rom you are on (I think you were on dcds rom). Then load radio via sd card method listed in the wiki. Then reload dcd if you are not already on the version that you want.
P.S. I have heard things about that ROM that it caused problems. You may want to read up on that here.
Nope
Well, I downloaded the file and tried running it but to no avail. It just comes up saying that the application failed to start because RAPI.DLL is missing.
Also
I tried running that app on a Vista machine as well and it just says that it can't open the USB port. However, windows found the device and installed a driver for it when plugged in AND it shows USB on the bootloader screen when plugged in.
ok..,. let me see...
try installing olipro 2.40 again, it seemes that your phone is locked (olipro 1.06) so it can't run the dcd custom rom... reset and see if you can enter windows...
then if you enter windows normally, downgrade to olipro 1.20 and install the new radio, then, once again upgrade to olipro 2.40 so it can enter windows...
let me know if it worked for you...

Install another carrier's stock ROM (though to keep things easier avoid the Telus one as it doesn not include a radio ROM) and avoid letting it run any customisations after boot/screen calibration.
You are fine.
Here's the problem
OK. Here's the problem. I obviously misread the instructions on setting the unit back to stock as I just read them again and I realize my mistake. I did not load the stock ROM on first. I used the Re-lock program and re-locked my unit before putting the stock ROM back on. So I sitting at the 3 colour screen with SPL 1.06 and I have radio 3.27 on the unit and dcd's latest ROM on it. I can't get it past the 1.06 bootloader. I have tried a hard reset, I have tried the program above to exit the boot loader and it does not work. Is there any way I can get Olipro 2.4 back on or exit this bootloader???
just connect your phone to the computer (it's ok to be on the tri color screen) and install olipro 2.40 from the computer...
you just need to be sure that when you connect the phone in the tri color screen it says USB...
i'm attaching Olipro 2.40
No Dice
Nope. I had tried that already. I just tried again. When I run Olipro 2.40 the command prompt comes up and then come up with a window saying "Cannot Find Device" (or something VERY close to that). It then asks if you'd like to retry, clicking retry just keeps bringing up the same message. If you click "No" on retrying it will eventually move on to the next step and load up the flash program. It will then attempt to flash the unit (Grey screen with the status bar comes up) but it just sits at 0% and eventually comes up with a 242 communication error.
i had a similar problem yesterday when i tried to upgrade the radio form 3.42.02 to 3.42.30 and taht solved my problem...
so you basically cannot exit the bootloader mode?? even when you hard reset your device??
Can the unlocker be flashed from a memory card? Has anybody ever tried?

I have the Bell ROM if you're looking for it.

I didn’t think it was possible to flash back to a stock Bell (non-GPS) rom/radio after flashing to a GPS radio.
Does anyone know if it’s possible to flash the SPL (bootloader) from an SD card?
No2chem over at ppc geeks has a new SPL that loads from the device, but it needs be running.

Yeah I've heard some horror stories when it came to downgrading, including a few bricked devices.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=26082
I would be interested to know if anyone on Bell has managed to successfully downgrade a 6800 to stock.
i thought dcd's new 3.2.0 needed a radio of 3.35 or higher to run and does not flash the radio when u flash his rom. Another problem with the phone not coming out of the bootloader is that you have to disable usb connections in active sync or windows mobile device center for the exit bootloader app to work. Try disabling the usb connection in whichever one applies for you and run the app again. If you can get out of the bootloader try to go back to ollipro 2.40 or use one of no2chems bootloaders as they work from the device and an sd card no need for a pc to flash the bootloader. once bootloader is unlocked again run a full radio/rom update like the sprint stock 3.35 easily found on htc's website under the titan (us version of the site). Don't let the carrier custimizations run ... the file that runs after u calibrate screen and set timezone just pull the battery. Then grab whatever rom / radio you want to or were trying to flash 2 before and name it put it on the root of an sd card (thats under 2gb and formatted to fat32) and rename the ruu_sighned.nbh file to TITAIMG.nbh hold power + camera and hit your soft reset button. The tri color screen will come up and should say loading then promt to hit the power button to flash and show u what u r flashing. cdma (radio). os (radio rom) or splash screen, or whatever you r trying to flash hit power button to start once done it will sit with update complete on the screen pull the battery out for about 30 sec and put it back in reboot and enjoy the custom rom or radio.

You can use nueSPL 2.47 to load the locker/relocker but you need to be booted into WM6 to do so. You need to reload another rom that uses the bootloader you have currently loaded and then you can move forward or backward.

Hey all,
Been trying just about everything to help a buddy out, but I've been failing repeatedly.
He got a brand new phone yesterday and found the XDA Titan Wiki to install the GPS enabled ROMs. He loaded SPL 2.4, then installed DCD 3.2.0. It got stuck at the Verizon screen when it restarted...then he apparently downloaded the Radio 3.42.30 to try and install that to get out of it (maybe thinking the Radio needed to be installed for it to get through). Now he's stuck at the White Verizon screen, and it says "No Radio".
Sounds like from when I read the Wiki he was supposed to install an intermediary Rom before jumping all the way to 3.2.0.
I've suggested using the Olipro SPL 1.2 unlocker, the Titan Relocker, several different ROM's and am at a loss as to how to fix it. He's still stuck at the Verizon screen displaying "No Radio."
Any suggestions?
Thanks
I went from stock to 3.2.0 / Radio 3.42.02.. no problems.
I have not loaded 2.42.30 (I prefer to use the radio version released by HTC for this device.. 3.42.30 was released for another device and ported.. although it seems to work for everyone.)
I HAVE read that for radio 3.42.30 you need SPL 1.20 for USB Flashing.
gc14 said:
Yeah 1.20 is needed to flash these radios via USB. Just need to put 2.40 back when you're done.

Based on that.. I assume SD flashing is ok with 2.40.

Yes! This is well documented.. a common issue.
If you flash the Rom without a compatible radio.. you will get stuck on the verizon screen... I suggest flashing the ROM AFTER the radio.. since you flashed the Rom already... when you get the radio working, Reflash the ROM.
Did you flash the radio via SD Card or USB?
Did it show a progress bar while flashing?
Let us know how your attempting to flash the Radio (USB or SD) With specific steps (held buttons X, Y, and Z.. saw this message, pressed this key.. saw this on the screen) .. and someone will let you know what you might be doing wrong.
Also.. dont forget to run the carrier cab when your done.. This is worth mentioning since it's the most common issue once the device boots and you cant program the phone, or make data / voice connections.

Any suggestions?
Thanks

Can you get to the bootloader by holding down camera power and pushing the reset button? If so, you can flash the radio with the SD method found in the wiki. just put the radio on the sd card in the proper format and enter bootloader and it should correct your problem.
Can I suggest something to try? (assuming you have 6800)
1. Get the sprint release. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402887
2. in bootloader, load the sprint release by usb method. when it gets to having you touch the screen, soft reset.
3. In bootloader, load the dcd 3.2.0 rom (or any other rom).
4. Hard reset.
This should give you 3.2.0 rom and 3.42.02 radio.

Hey guys,
Thanks for the responses and suggestions.
1) At the moment he doesn't have an SD card aside from the SDHC, so he couldn't do that until he purchases one. Good idea though if nothing else works
2) When pressing the camera/power/reset he's in the SPL 2.4 bootloader screen, he's going to try your suggestion of downloading Sprints and upgrading.
3) I'll ask him procedurally what else he has tried, what error he gets for recording. No doubt you were correct about uploading the Radio before the ROM
I've actually flashed my phone exactly the same way he has so that I can try to experience the same problems, and try to figure it out myself.
Bingo
Hey,
The Sprint ROM .exe was the answer. Very smart, thanks again for helping us both out. Was getting a little nervous for about 2 minutes.

I did the same thing. Thank you very much...saved my butt!

thanks
uhh 2.07 is a relocker SPL
I think you have to downgrade to a stock firmware/SPL, then do the process properly.
Use SPL 2.40 or 2.47 before trying to flash on a GPS rom.

I would say the same. I would go ahead and unlock OliPro 2.4 (never tried 2.47) then flash Telus rom. After doing so you should be fine.

Sorry, I read his post wrong. HEre is what I would do:
1. Download OliPro 2.40 and run it. Ignore the part that asks you to verify the Active Synch connection. Its not needed for anything but a connection confirmation.
2. After running OliPro 2.40 you should be stuck at the three color bootloader screen, Like you are now. If not hold Camera and Power and use stylus to put phone in bootloader. Make Sure it says OLIPRO 2.40 for the version on the bootloader. If not then re-run oliupro and make sure to follow the directions. Especially noting that it asks you to disconnect then reconnect the device.
3. Flash your Stock ROM back.
4. Hard Reset.
In my experience you do not have to go back to a stock ROM to flash a new carrier ROM as long as you have OliPro.
Let me ask you this: What exact steps did you take when you flashed Telus ROM image?
I was on the same setup you were, DCD 3.2.5 with Radio .50 and OliPro 2.40. I simply flashed the Telus image and all was well for me. Hell it was better than all well. This is the best ROM I have ever used. PERIOD. No, its not pretty but damn, its fast as anything I have used and the GPS is insane!
BTW: Im a Verizon user. Anyone know how to make the phone not say "Telus" when I go to the connection manager?

Thats interesting. I have hosed so many XV6800's and used OliPro and a stock GPS sprint ROM to get them back (Thanks alot for nothing Verizon!).
IM assuming you are still on the tricolor screen? Take out battery and place back in. Then try again. Dont wait long. Someonelse has discoverd the phone can only be connected for so long before it "drops" connection with the windows machine. Someone else's therory but I can certainly second it.
What SPL were you using with DCD 3.x before upgrading?

before flashing to new telus wm6.1 rom, i had olipro 2.40 with .30 radio and dcd3.2.5 kitchen...i have tried upgrading to radio .50 with no success. but failing to update radio didn't affect anything to my phone. tried your suggestion by romoving battery and still telling me that device not connected.

Hmmm, maybe try a different USB port at this time. Also, try this...
Before you connect your device open device manager in Windows. Look for M/S USB sync to appear after you connect. What OS are you using? This is what it will look like in Vista.
In XP I beleive it will show up under USB at the very bottom of Device Manager.
Does the phone show up at all?
Flash a stock pre-gps rom first.....then go ahead and upgrade the hard spl to 2.4 or 2.47.....then flash away with whatever you want....
You cannot flash Hardspl to Hardspl...they have overwrite protection not signed by HTC....
..................................
I currently have a Verizon Wireless fully flashed to cricket XV6800. I decided to know about hacking the Mogul so what I try to do was Look up WMDC 6.1 and apply it to my phone. When i did this the screen stopped at 11%. I took out the battery and tried to turn it on and i get a Red, Green, and Blue color on the start up screen. The words that are on the phone are TITA100 SPL-1.20.Olipro and on the bottom it says USB when connected and Serial when not connected. I looked every where to and figure it out how to get my phone back to the same way. I downloaded so many programs like Titan Unlocker, Titan exitbl, but all these programs do is say my phone is not connected when it is connected. I hear the Sound when the connection for the USB is connected and disconnected. What can i do Will i ever get my phone back to the same state that it once was. I was wondering also that since my phone was flashed that the software will be erased. Is there any way that I can get my Cricket Service. By the way before i did all the hacking what i did was back everything up on the memory card. Is there a way I can restore that through the phone even though i cant access the menu?
I'm going crazy--Thank you for your time to read and for those who can give me some word of advice or some way that my problem can be solved.
Thank you
if u are using xv6800.. i believe u have to install bootloader 2.40 or 2.47.. maybe that might be the problem when installing wm6.1
First, your phone is not bricked.. bricked means broken.. unfixable.. a brick!
You also need to let us know what you software you want to run... DCD 3.2.6?? WMDC 6.1 is Windows Mobile Device Center.. it's not a rom?? So I dont know what you tried to flash.
You need to read the instructions!! Sounds like You upgraded your rom (or tried to) with a non compatible bootloader.. if you dont want to bust your $200 - $500 phone perminently.. you should read the directions twice.. (I read them 4 times, then asked questions before the first time I flashed mine)
When you plug in the device and hear the usb sound.. check device manager.. make sure you see a usb device.. Your OS shoul have installed drivers... Then try the info below.

After that you can Flash a Radio, then a rom (I recommend the SD method)
And the versions in my signature.
You can get the SPL 2.40 here:
http://www.lifesnotsogood.com/dcd1182/titan/spl/
You should also read this WIKI
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanProblems
If you cant flash SPL 2.40 you will need to flash back to a ROM compatible with SPL 1.20
Read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392133
I'd try to grab one of thoise older Roms and flash using SD card method.
Then from within Windows Mobile (on your device) Upgrade bootloader to 2.47 (Available from the same link as 2.40 above)
Then flash the radio and rom version I have in my signature.
And dont forget to install carrier cab.
I can't seem to connect my xv6800 to the computer so I can run that program.
I plug it in and the sound comes up and I run the program but it says that it can't copy to device.

Then you need to get a Rom and radio compatible with SPL 1.20.. You'll need a SD card thats Equal to or less than 2GB (NON SDHC)
Check the compatibility here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392133
Read the instructions for flashing this here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TITAN_GettingStarted
Check the Flashing with a SD card section.
Process is the same for the radio and the rom.
I cant seem to find an available rom that you need though.. I'll post back when i do.
Unless someone else has a trick for you...
You can also try a another machine that may recognize your phone.
What did you actually try to flash your phone with, and how did you do it.. this is important to help you.
Download DCD 1.6.10 and flash it to your device with the SD card method (Instructions and links in my previous Post) I couldnt find the rom, but I downloaded the kitchen and cooked a rom that should work for you.
Download it from my webserver here:
http://x51.nx-1.com/TITAN/Roms/
Remember you need a proper SD card for this.. if you don't have one, you'll need to buy one.
After flashing this rom.. Assuming your radio is compatible... You should boot into the OS (forget making calls or getting data connection) Just download SPL 2.47 and execute it on your device.. once the SPL is upgraded, Flash the newest Radio, flash the newest rom, run the carrier cab, install aplications..
Let me know if you run into trouble.
okay so what I did was cook up a ROM and then added the Radio 3.37 from alltel on it. I restated the phone and waited the windows mobile 6.1 load screen did not change I moved my keyboard and the sound functioned. I did a restart a hard reset everything I believe it is something with the rom. Any suggestions?
Thanks

do you have one of the correct bootloaders? because just flashing to a custom rom and adding a new radio doesn't give you the bootloader that you need so you have to have that too...you can check it by holding down the power button, the camera button and inserting your stylus into the soft reset hole at the bottom of the phone and to get back out of it just do a soft reset but it needs to be be either 2.40 or 2.47 not 1.20 or anything else

if you now have the correct bootloader and radio...try flashing with a pre-cooked rom like dcd 326 or the rom from the links that i gave you...the popular one was the black pill and there is one that's specifically for cricket
do I just google that build number or is there a specific program I should download?

I also explained that once you boot into windows with that rom, you need to upgrade your bootloader to 2.47 (with instructions) and then your radio, and then rom.
The path was simple..
Flash dcd 1.6.10 (compatible with SPL 1.20) so the phone will boot
Upgrade SPL (bootloader to 2.47)
Flash new radio (3.47.50)
Flash new Rom (3.2.6)
Run carrier cab.
If you are still asking about where to get the (SPL) bootloader.. I guess I cant help you....
