Yes......search for this thread (Titan Radio ROM 3.42.50) ........just flash it from SDcard....and you will be good to go....
Just to verify,
I can flash just the radio form the sd card, all the data and programs wont have to be reloaded, right?

I've extracted the radio ROM from latest Dopod chinese ROM and packaged here as a standalone NBH radio upgrade:
HERM_RADIO_1.38.00.10_Only_SSPL.rarThis radio has HTC_BOOT 0108 and no GPS enabled.
Keep in mind that the safest procedure to upgrade your radio right now is:
Flash Hard-SPL v1.10.Oli on your phone
Flash the desired radio upgrade using the RUU package
Both steps have to be done with phone connected to computer through USB cable and activesync enabled, Des SSPL will be pushed into your phone when the RUU starts.
Remember that when flashing a radio only you don't need to hard-reset your phone, so no data will be lost.
Note: Same radio GPS enabled (from trinity) is available here
Enjoy!
Thanks pof!
Flashing now...
EDIT- Flashed 100% ok, now using with full network reception.
Will post again if there's any probs.
is it have problems when i flash this radio to my x10HT?
no, there is nothing at all special about the x10HT folks...
personally, I recommend everyone uses this one instead of the trinity radio simply because we can't have GPS anyway and for the power you're wasting on non-working chip, it's pointless.
just wanted to say thanks. i had the newest trinity rom installed earlier and this has better battery life.
thanks a lot pof
I think I'll give this one a try... Thanks!
Given my device is SuperCID, does it make sense to apply the Hard-SPL still?
I have HERM_RADIO_1.38.00.11 but I install this new radio because the previous one spent the battery to me very fast.
moving over to this, no point having the gps enabled deal!
Completely agree, until we can get the GPS on the hermes working (which is unlikely due to bricking risk) there really is no need for us to have the GPS rom from the trin.
pof! thanks man I also had the gps 11 version and i figured why not go with the 10 version as well since we wont get GPS anytime soon, i will test for a few days and report back...
Removed the Trinity 1.38 radio very quickly but initial impressions of this native Hermes ROM are far more favourable.
Not had it installed long enough to get an impression of battery life yet but reception and stability seem good so far.

Titan Radio ROM 3.27.00
NOTE 6/19/08:
There is absolutely no reason for anyone to be using this radio anymore. If you are looking to upgrade from 1.x radios, please use 3.35 or later.
DOWNGRADING TO THIS RADIO FROM 3.35 OR ABOVE WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE.
This radio enables GPS and EvDO rev A.

how do we get bootloader 2? or even know that i have it? hopefully this will fix how when ever i hand up i loose singal for a few seconds and it seems i go in and out a lot when i should have good signal.

the bootloader. its what comes with the newest rom.
the rom is not released so unless you snaged it from here tonight you wont have it.
I was reading instructions by IMCOKEMAN - does anyone know if we can keep the 1.20 Olipro and do these instructions?
EDIT by ImCoKeMaN:
I have found that if you have issues where your device seems to be bricked and stuck in bootloader before completion of the update you can fix it by flashing via SD card.
To do this there are 3 steps:
First take the .exe file and open it with winrar. There will be a file 3.16.....nbh extract that and rename it to TITAIMG.nbh
Next format a microSD card with FAT 32 (required most are fat16 default) and copy the file TITAIMG.nbh to the root of the sd card with a card reader.
Finally place sdcard in device and reset into bootloader mode. The flash will proceed from the SD card and it should work fine. Enjoy!

DO we have to RELOCK?
I read many many posts yesterday about having to RElock the phone.
Do We need to do this before running the new Bootloader, then radio, then rom?

I didn't. I flashed the new unlocker straight from the 1.4, then radio and then the new ROM.
so will this pretty much allow you to have gps and rev a with any rom of your choice? or do you still need to use the new roms?

I also am curious of this as i miss having my cooked dcd rom kitchen, either way im sure a new kitchen will be released anyways, and gps is pretty neat
I flashed both, same issue, no sound when dialing *228. If I try to turn on the speaker, it snaps and restarts. If I leave it going it will connect and about 30 seconds later it restarts.
Any suggestions?
More info please...... what were you running before? Have you unlocked the phone and upgraded the bootloader and radio?
I was running the stock rom before. I using the 3.27 radio and olipro 2.4 I did the bootloader, the rom then the radio. I unlocked the phone with Hard SPL 240. Do I need to relock?
You need to upgrade your radio to atleast 3.35.
yea get 3.35 or 3.37 radio

You need to read the ENTIRE section that DCD wrote in the 3.0.4 kitchen POST.... He clearly states you NEED the 3.35 or higher radio.... there are known issues with the "leaked, beta 3.27 radio" one of them is an audio issue....
You will only need to flash the SPINT or ALLTEL update. WITHOUT letting the customizations run..... Then DCD 3.0.4 will run fine for you....
Hello guys, I have a little bit of a problem, and I am hoping that you guys can help me out. About 10 months ago I upgraded from my stock ROM to dcd's 2.3.2. rom and 3.27.00 radio. Every thing went fine, loaded up 2.40 olipro and the installation went perfect. Now last month I saw that dcd came out with 3.2.6 and wanted to upgrade my rom and radio, but this is were i'm running into problems. I was able to flash the 3.2.6. rom, but I am unable to flash the radio. I have searched up and down these forums and checked out the wiki's and havn't been able to find a solution. So now all i'm left with is a phone that can't make a phone call but is still able to send sms messages. If anyone has any helpful tips or even a solution to my problem it would be much appricated.
I thought the 3.27 radio works with 3.2.6. What is happening when you try to flash the radio? and what method are you using to flash it (SD card or pc)? Also when you bootup the phone does it say 3.27 radio still? I believe all the newer DCD roms need a carrier cab have you installed the cab? I'm pretty sure the phone won't be able to make calls without the cab installed. 1 more Q what service do you have?

When I flash the radio it goes to 8% flashes a red light and then resets. I have also tried both methods of flashing but none works. When I bootup the phone it does still say 3.27 as the radio. I have also tried to install a carrier cab but have had no luck.
Try updating to Hard SPL 2.47
The 3.27 Radio is NOT compatible with ANY DCD version 3.X and higher..... Have you read the Wiki? Can you flash the radio using the SD card method? All of your questions have answers in the Wiki.....
You should flash back to 2.3.2. Go into the bootloader(tri-color screen) and then flash 2.3.2 to the phone..... reboot it.... it should load up ok.... If this works for you to this point, you have several options to upgrade the radio ..... Read the Wiki....

I got a refurbished xv6800 with the newer verizon software on it (unfortunately I don't know the exact version). Ideally I would like to end up with one of dcd's roms and a gps radio. I want to use the gps standalone (not with agps) because that requires a data plan (correct?) and I have a data block. Everything I do I ends with Google Maps showing "Seeking GPS satellites (0)..." Here is what I did:
Unlocked with Hard-SPL 2.47-no2chem
Flashed dcd 3.2.6 with radio 3.42.40
(realized I needed to downgrade first)
Relocked with nueSPL-Relocker
Flashed 2.09.605.8 with radio 1.30.00
Unlocked with Hard-SPL 2.47-no2chem
Flashed dcd 3.2.6 with radio 3.42.40
Relocked with Titan_Relocker.exe
Flashed 2.09.605.8 with radio 1.30.00
Unlocked with Hard-SPL-MFG
Flashed dcd 2.1.0 with radio 3.27.00
With each flash I verified that QPST had all the gps settings checked, my location setting was on, the external gps settings were correct, and I waited outside with a clear view of the sky for about 5 minutes. Along with Google Maps "Seeking GPS" message, ##DEBUG shows N/A under GPS for everything.
What am I missing here? I'm getting to the point where I just want to shoot the thing...

Why did you flash back to 2.09 after 3.2.6? Did it not work at that point?
My process with a new phone is to go from MR1/2 when I get new titan, relocker, 2.09, nue2.47, radio 3.42.50, DCD 3.2.6, then aGPS fix (you can put mode=0 at this point). Thats it.
I would maybe try flashing MR1 then relocking. Are you flashing via sd card for each step? Try using *22899 instead of soft resetting, and dont use PHM regedit for the registry hacks, use total commander. Let me know how things go, could be the hardware though I guess...
Don't use google maps. Use HTC gps tool or gps viewer so you can see possible locks.
Also look in the following thread for my standalone settings. But first relock using titan relocker. Then unlock and flash 3.42.xx radio and then DCD 3.3.4 or 3.2.6 rom. Then follow the thread for my gps settings

Correct, it wasn't working so I figured maybe something went wrong when flashing to 2.09 so I did it again just to be sure.

I was kinda using a combination of sd and usb.

That's a good point, I downloaded the HTC GPS tool and will use that for testing.
Ok, here is what I will try today:
-Flash to MR1
-Relock and flash to 2.09
-Unlock with nue2.47
-Radio 3.42.50
-DCD 3.2.6
-aGPS fix and then mode=0 w/ total commander
-I will use *22899 instead of soft reseting...
Thanks a lot for the help. I really appreciate it.

Thanks once again serfboreds and drewcam. I really have no idea why this wasn't working before, but it is now. I ended up flashing MR1, downgrading to 2.09, then used dcd 3.2.6 and radio 3.42.50. I only enabled GPS in QPST and didn't use the aGPS settings or mess with the registry and it worked! I really have no idea why this didn't work the last time I did it. The only thing I did different was use sd instead of usb for the dcd image.
Verizon only..
if you dial #228 after you upgrade to an GPS enable ROM, you'll need to downgrade back to stock old .. 2.09 ROM ..then re-upgrade
only for Verizon users.. this started a few weeks ago .. Verizon close down
their GPS server to none paying customers and anyone that runs #228
will no longer get GPS service even if they change IP's .. for me standalone mode works best with setting #1
