bricked my alltel 6800 - Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development

i downloaded and ran the olipro 2.40, then ran the titan radio 3.42.30 program. i cannot get past the alltel screen now. the reason i ran the radio rom first was because after reading the upgrade path it was suggest to run the radio program first. the only number on the htc screen that changed was the 3.42.30, the number below reads 2.14.
i did this with the usb cradle. is there a way to go back? fix?
also i wasnt able to get back to the tri color screen, it went straight to the htc/alltel screen so i wasnt able to do the dcd rom update i downloaded.

Run exitbootloader after disabling USB connections in activesync options.
You didn't brick your phone.

isnt it now a known thing that if you are using the .exe to upgrade your radio that you need version 1.2 of bootloader?

Instead of powering on normally, hold power, camera, and hold in the soft-reboot for about 2 seconds, then let go. it should put you in the tri-color bootloader screen.
Then you can flash a ROM.

And no, you can upgrade radio on 2.40 but after flashing a radio, you can't do another radio via the RUU for some reason. You have to update using MicroSD or a packaged RUU from then on...

Good catch, that is his problem. I forget that some people are still using executable over SD for radio upgrades.

i am at the tri color screen now. i will do the dcd upgrade now and hopefully i should be good. i tried this before and was at the same screen (alltel screen) and thought it was done so i got a new one. thanks for the assistance!

wow amazing. it works thank you everyone very much. i did the *228 and activated my phone and it works fine now. now i need to read through and see how i can get picture/video messaging to work (no choice to send)

i think you gotta install something like Arcsoft MMS for MMS messaging

I've never been able to get mms working with any consitency on Alltel with dcd's roms. I've installed the "Lenny" Alltel Arcsoft cab and it'll work occasionally when I run tests, but then won't work 10 minutes later or I won't receive an mms from someone. I've never been able to come up with a valid, consistent fix, so unfortunately I've stuck with the stock roms lately as mms is more important to me than WM 6.1.

I'm currently trying to add Alltel support to my MMS project, though I'll need some beta testers. It's not ready yet, but if you want to pm me with your email address, I can shoot out a mass email letting everyone who wants to test know when it's good to go.

I am having similar issue but mine is stuck on the
vzw page..anything work for this ?

Radio Rom 1.35

Sorry if this is a dumb Question but I have not been able to find a true answer.
What is the advantage of updating My Radio Rom from 1.20 to either 1.27 or 1.35 or should I leave well enough alone.
Its up to you, the 1.35.00.11 version of the radio has the GPS chip enabled, but as you will see in the GPS thread the GPS chip works but has no antenna. The radio should be more stable, and i noticed an increase in the range of my 3G area with it. Make sure to use the version available here (at the top) because they push "des SSPL" to the phone so you dont need to worry about which bootloader or CID you have (not that it matters about CID with radio upgrades...but you know what i mean )
Thanks, i'll probably upgrade to 1.35 using the link you provided
Just upgraded, very straightforward.
One slight issue. After upgrade and soft reset I could not make a data connection.
I made a voice call just to check that was working . . .
then all was OK.
Don't know if the voice call sorted it or what
just make sure you have GPS off or your battery will be in for a ride

Hi,
I also flashed 1.35 nice and easy. So where can you turn GPS off ?
Thanks for the help

Don't worry, GPS isn't enabled unless you install the VRSerial driver (which aint easy....). Even then, it's only turned on when an application specifically opens the GPS comm port.

Hi Sleuth255,
thanks for the help on this issue. I do not indent to install VRSerial. I do have an external GPS mouse which is fine for me.

I recently upgraded and it was a major improvement for me. Far fewer dropped calls, better reception, etc.
I have noticed a noticeable decrease in in-call volume...is this an issue with this rom? At max volume, I have trouble hearing in a noisey environment...never had this problem before.
RUU_1.35.00.11_radio_only.exe wants to connect to the internet?
I upgraded my radio rom yesterday and kept the installation file, RUU_1.35.00.11_radio_only.exe, on my laptop. I downloaded the file with the link supplied in the wiki page.
Now today I get a warning from my f-secure saying that the exe file “RUU_1.35.00.11_radio_only.exe” wants to connect to the internet. I clicked deny and it kept trying to connect four more times then it stopped. I scanned the file for viruses and Trojans but F-Secure didn’t find any.
Anyone else had the same problem or perhaps knows whats going on?

Hi,
HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM!!!
After install this radio version, my phone want to start...
WiFi is ok
BT is ok
But the phone remain in of, even i restart it using the wireless manager...
Some suggestion?

load up dotFred's taskmanager and see if the RIL service has started.
@ricott:
I built that RUU with an unregistered copy of WinRAR. Maybe it's phoning home for some reason....

If the phone won't start, after flashing radio 1.35, simply reflash the SO.

Did you upgrade from 1.34.00.10 or a lower version radio ?
Would like to know if there is any "real" advantage to upgrade from 1.34.00.10 to 1.35.00.11 ?
I am experiencing some missed calls due to the always GPRS / 3G connection I am running for emoze push mail.

How to upgrade an xv6800 with the new Sprint ROM

(Mirrored from my post on PPCGeeks)
Here are the steps I have successfully used many times to upgrade my xv6800 to the new radio and a custom ROM.
1) For good measure, perform a hard reset by holding down the 2 softkeys while pressing the reset button then press R
2) Just in case record your MSID, MDN, and if you can see it A Key from the PST. You can get there by dialing ##778 Send and using 000000 as your code (I've never been able to see my A Key)
3) Install Olipro 2.4 bootloader (during installation of the bootloader, after disconnecting and reconnecting the cable from your phone, the RUU instructs you to make sure you have an ActiveSync connection. Ignore this, it is not necessary.)
*When complete be sure to disable USB in ActiveSync to get out of the bootloader (File -> Connection Settings -> Uncheck "Allow USB connections") Re-enable this before the next step
4) Install the new Sprint ROM
*DO NOT LET THE SPRINT CUSTOMIZATIONS RUN!!! When the flash is complete and you arrive at the Welcome screen it will ask you to tap the screen to proceed, DO NOT PROCEED ANY FURTHER. If using DCDs kitchen you can proceed to flash from here. I can't speak for others although I believe they will do the same.
5) Finally, install the custom ROM of your choice. I am successfully using DCDs 3.0.1 without any issues.
Things to note:
1) I never let the Sprint ROM boot up and run the customizations
2) I had the slow signal aquisition issue so ran *22802 then hit End as soon as it connected
3) I also re-entered the MSID and MDN
4) After performing steps 2-3 I no longer have the slow signal issue
5) No A key was necessary
6) I 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)
The theory is that the Stock Sprint updater copies your PST settings out before the install then restores them post-install. This is why I never needed to dial *228 or re-enter my A Key
GPS is running great
Not sure about Rev A, still need to tether and test
If you have suggestions on ways to improve this guide, please let me know.
Geckotek, thanks for the easy to follow walkthrough. I'm getting my 6800 via fedex tomorrow...and can't wait. Been cooking my 6700 for a few months, and it was time for an upgrade. I've been following the 90page thread about DCDs roms...and am looking forward to having working gps etc from the new radio from sprint and his rom.
Thanks again!

Would this work with a Qwest PPC 6800?
Was wondering if this would work with a Qwest PPC 6800 to switch over to Sprint? I never heard of Qwest before now since I purchased a cell phone that had a picture of a Sprint Mogul, but in the fine print listed that it was a Qwest PPC 6800 Mogul.
I'm really hoping you guys say its a possibility

Don't know if you have reolved this. It is possible to flash it so it would run on sprint's network. The problem is whether you can get sprint to activate it to work on their network.
Sprint will not. The only phones that Sprint will allow are the ones manufactured with the Sprint logo on them. They know the serial #s (ESN) of all of the HTC 6800s manufactured as Sprint Moguls and their servers are setup to deny access to all others. I know its frustrating, but you're S.O.L. like i was last December.
Thank you for the thread!
I will give this a try soon on my newly acquired Sprint Mogul / Titan!
Well it is my wife's really! I still have my wizard.
Thanks!

Upgrading from DCD 3.0.1/radio 3.35.04

Hey guys
As the topic says i am trying to upgrade my verizon xv6800 from radio 3.35.04 to the latest and greatest as well as the new dcd build. I was wonder what should i expect when i start doing this. Last time i had to call in to verizon support to get my phone working again.
Also i had to install my version of arcsoft mms in order to get it all working together, will i have to do the same thing this time? Also in order to install the the new radio i was told i need a non sdhc micro-sd card (which i do not have) is there any way to go around this? last time i went with the official sprint update, and stopped it from booting then loaded up dcd. will that work this time as well? btw, i am using vista 64-bit (as i was last time as well). i do however have access to a 32 bit vista computer as well, so that shouldn't be a problem.
Sorry if i nubed up a little bit, but the last time i did this i also went through very carefully with the community's supports. Thank you guys in advanced =)

1st - No, you will not have to call Verizon to get an A-key.
2nd - If you run the Verizon Carrier cab that is posted on the 1st page of this post this post , then run the attached MMS cab that DCD created, your MMS will work....
3rd - Radio - Just so you know, when you flash the Sprint 3.39 full ROM+Radio, your boot screens will change and say something like "TEST - Not for Resale" so your will have to live with it or go here to change those screens... Thx to GC14
Make sure to NOT run the customizations from Sprint.....
just to be sure the customizations happen after the part where you tap the screen to calibrate the touch screen?
YES.... At that screen, goto the Bootloader screen (Press POWER + CAMERA + RESET w/stylus), the tri-color screen should show up.
Thanks did it. But now it seems that my GPS doesnt even get a lock. Looking through, i am missing quickgps app which i had on my old dcd 3.0.1.
I installed the quick gps app and did all the steps neccary to make sure it works properly with the cracked app file. The i even went as far as to try that titan gps fix that requires me to use the QPST program. so far to no avail, i am unable to get a lock.

Irus Ultra Vanilla rom questions...

OK i have decided to run with the Irus Ultra Vanilla 6.1 rom. everything seems to be working great as I am installing my programs...then I notice after setting up my exchange email account...the microsoft direct push doesent seem to be working..i try to sync my exchange account and it says it cant connect with the current connection settings. and if I try using the comm manager i cant activate the direct push...any advice on this? Now after flashing the rom I never got the Tmobile settings detection thing that I've always had before...could it be something not set for tmobile?

Just set up the t-mobile connections manually and you should be fine.
ok, forgive me for being spoiled with autoconfiguration....I think I found the settings on tmobiles web page...but i cant seem to find where to put them. I think ive looked under all the connection settings and havent found anything...i vaugly remember seeing like a manual configuration wizard that i ran back on another rom...but I doubt thats included in the ultra vanilla.

You go to Start>Setting>Connection, then you will see an icon called "Connections". The iconn has c omputer, two mobile phones and a globe. Click on that, and click on "Add a new modem connection" . Enter the name of your Tmobile company, and in the select a modem window, choose "Cellular GPRS". On the next screen, enter the Access Point Name. If you don't know what is the access point name, call your phone company and ask them.
Thats' it. Very simple.
ok, i setup a tmobile mms connection and all I did was input wap.voicestream.com into the APN and then clicked finish. Now my direct push email is working and the net is working as well. Does anyone know if that should be all I need setup to access my full tmobile data plan that I have?
ok, everything seems to be working now except my receiving of picture messages....I had a friend send me a pic and i got the text from the picture message as a normal sms, not mms. once I tried to open the sms, it gave me an error that It couldnt download the msg and it would be left in the inbox....gotta be another setting somewhere....

I hope touchlasvegas dont mind if I ask a "few" questions.
1. I'm interested in flashing this ROM, can I go back to AP4 if I choose to? There wont be a problem with the repartitioning when its already done right?
2. In the addons, did Irus put the Windows Live and MSN messenger v10.6..... or is it a previous version?
3. Also in addons, which Windows Mobile is in there....is it the same one in AP4? I'm also looking for the Comm Manager and USB to PC from Ap4?
If I can get just these few things.....I'm ready to install this more stable ROM!!!
Thanks
depends on what SPL your using...I'm on SPL 1.2 so i can bounce around on various roms as long as they are the same SPL. I believe Irus has an spl 1.2 AP4 rom, but do you know which spl you are running? I do not remember seeing the windows live and messenger apps in the addons but i may have overlooked them...easy enough to download the latest versions though. Pretty much each little piece of software you need...you'll need to get the latest version and download it. I'm lovin the speed of the ultra vanilla though, all menus are snappy instead of the slug I had been used to.
and to anyone else concerned, I tracked down the connection wizard cab in another thread, ran that and it setup all my tmobile settings perfectly...so its all good now. I have one last issue, not being able to change the softkeys...I would prefer it to say just email...or mail, instead of Gmail at the bottom right. By chance anyone know of a cab file that would remove the bottom bar totally?
I'm running Ap4.0 3.5spl. I just dont know if any of the things that I'm looking for is available in his addons.
So the answer to the first question is....."yes" I can re-flash the PK Ap4.0 ROm if I want to go back to it?
I believe you can, I wish someone else with spl 3.5 could chime in..I do not have that spl yet, so I dont have any experience with it. It would make sense that you could change between any 3.5 spl roms though
Thanks for the help touchlasvegas.
A couple questions for you. What SIP's are apart of this ROM? Is teksoft fingertouch in there?
Would you recommend IYHO to flash to this ROM? I'm reading nothing but good stuff about it!

Hi CRU2008,
I hope you don't mind that i'm answering some of your questions.
Fingertouch is not included because Irus has no permission by Teksoftco to provide it.
This rom is great, very fast and stable. I had some annoying issues with the bluetooth stack and my Cardo BT headset. Every time a call came in, after a few seconds the bluetooth connection was lost.
So i had to go back to AP4 (i disabled all that fingertouch and automatic orientation stuff), because i have to use my Ameo in a professional manner.

Hi
I had the same Bluetooth problem then i have to switch rom. I have switched to Irus TaxistV10 it works great and faster than Ap4. It is upto you which rom you choose, but i recommend the V10 rom. Reasons for that
Bluetooth stack is great
Wireless manager works on 96DPI
faster
Good luck

if your still lookin for the connection wizard, follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356330 to this thread and in POST # 3, there is a list of addons. Your going to download "Shamanix HTC ConnectionSetup v1.0.31247.2.cab" after struggling to enter manual settings, this got internet, data, and MMS all working perfectly for tmobile automatically.
I'm also very lucky, as I just dont have a need to depend on a bluetooth with my advantage...if I cant talk on the speaker due to privacy at the moment, then I just send a text, not a big deal to me. I have yet to run into any problems with the Irus Ultra Vanilla rom, it just takes time to get everything working because almost everythings been removed from the rom to make it ultra vanilla, and thats what I wanted...emilination of the junk so I can pick and choose what I want.

Help: Verizon connection settings

I recently upgraded to DCD3.2.5 ROM and Radio version 3.42.50 And now i cant send or receive MMS messages. I can connect to wifi and i can send regular texts but when i send a picture it only gives me the option to send through email. How do u get MMS back. I installed the verizon carrier cab. Should i install the cricket carrier cab as well?
seems like this may be what you need
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=404345
Follow A lazy Dude suggestion. You will need to install Arcsoft. I have VZW and that takes care of the issue and gives you threaded SMS/MMS as well.
Thanks they worked. Now i have a problem with the GPS. i installed the new radio version and everything but for somereason no GPS program will pick it up. i tried using google maps and Quick GPS. In order to use the GPS does wifi need to be off? If so then that means i have to use data which will cost me since i have no plan.

Do this for GPS.... Set the phone to 911 only. Then soft-reset. Then switch it back to Location on... and soft reset. Also, do a *228 , 1 OR *22899 and let the phone re-program / soft reset. Let me know if that helps.

Have you tried a hard reset? and don't install anything else.
no but i would prefer not too. Ive already done a bunch of hard resets and i finally have my phone where i want it. it would just suck to have to redo it all again.
Also my wifi isnt working. It keeps saying i have the incorrect network key when i know its right. its the same one im using on my laptop and it works fine. maybe i will have to hard reset.
these are my installed programs. Could these be messing anything up?
AIM
Oxios Memory
Quick GPS
Total COmmander
WMminibattery
HTC Home Plugin
HTC home customizer
PHM RegEdit
Pim Backup
and then i also have the verizon carrier cab, Cody ppc performance, GC arcsoft Mobile.
When i start up my phone it always says "the file 'Program' coul not be found or it is not signed with a trusted certificate. Try reinstalling the software." BUt i dont even know what its looking for.
Maybe i should hard reset But is there any of those programs i shouldnt put back onto my phone?
have you tried the Titan GPS fix yet?

would it make a difference that i have radio 3.42.50 with DCD 3.2.5 ROM?
Becasue i noticed you have the GPS fix but you also have a differen radio version than i do.
i just tried that fix and it still doesnt seem to be working. anything i can do? should i reinstall the radio or do anything different?
Im thinking about hard restaring the phone again but when i do that should i change the ROM or radio? Also any reason for the wifi not to be accepting the network key?
i just did a hard reset and only put google maps on to see if it would work and still not working. do i need a different radio? when i go to google maps and click on my location it says your handset does not seem to support the my location feature. Am i doing it wrong? Am i supposed to click on somthing different rather than my location?

There should be use GPS link on that menu. Click on that and it will start up the GPS and find your position. The default settings for the GPS in Google is to let windows manage it and it should turn it on if all is working.
