I bought a Mogul last night and before calling this morning to activate it i already unlocked the phone, installed SPL 2.40, and DCDs ROM 3.2.5. When i called to activate the phone sprint has me key in ##several numbers# which is suppose to take me to some menu where i can activate the phone. Is there a way to do this or am i going to have to install a Sprint Rom ->activate -> reinstall everything i did.
Thanks in Advance

Did you install the Carrier cab?

Yes downloaded and installed the carrier cab already

Usually that allows the necessary options... IE... ##778#... and others to work. I'm not sure what the activation number is for Sprint. *228 on Verizon. Sorry. Somebody else will have to chime in.
Activation
##448025#
This is the code they have been giving me to try.

is that the 6 digit MSL code? Your unlock code? I know that on my Treo 700wx, verizon had me do #*#000000 to do the activation. I wonder if your unlock code is what you need where those numbers are.

How do I change the MSID on my Sprint Mogul running DCD rom? I would liek to do this and not have to flash back to the original sprint rom. Sprint asked me to chnage it but when I typed ##046290# nothing happend. It was supposed to bring up a menu for me to change the MSID. Must be because I'm running DCD 3.0.4
##778# then enter your MSL
How do I find the MSL? Do I need to call sprint? Is there no other way?

There is a MSL generator program out there at PPC Geeks.com and it might be floating around here as well that works...

Hi all!!!
I currently have 2.04_003 but I'm having really big trouble to lock on the satellites (30+ minutes, sometimes 1+hours ) so I'm wondrering which is the best PRI...
I have some friends with 2.03_003 and 2.00_004 and they lock on very fast... I'm talking about 10 secs...
Is there a way to change the PRI Version manually?? where can I faind them (I did some search in the forum with no luck)
thanks!!!
I do not know what PRI is but I have version 1.35_002 and I sometimes can never connect but most of the time when I prime it I get a connection within 2-3minutes
PRI Udate
The PRI is seperate from the PRL, and it makes a huge difference on the GPS version.
Search PPC Geeks for the 2.03 PRI. I think it came from the kaiser or the vogue, but it works fantastic on my Sprint Mogul. 2.04 sucked for me.
The PRI is stored in a special NVram seperate from the ROM and Radio. It is updated by installing a .cab file, and then you run \windows\PPST.exe and it will flash it.
Sorry I don't have more direct info, but I just don't have the time to re-search for it right now.
Good luck!
Keep in mind that PRI can be/are carrier specific.
For example since Verizon has yet to release any updates for the XV6800 the only PRI that can be used is 1.35_002.
I had a feeling of that...thats why I didnt jump at the chance to change it....lol
i'm on telus network, can i flash with new telus vogue wm6.1 rom just to get the latest PRI and flash back to dcd's kitchen ? will that mess up my titan ?

Personally, I don't see that being an issue. But don't quote me on that. If anything, we can get the PPST file CAB out of that release and you can install and run it manually instead of doing a complete flash.

I am pretty sure I already updated your carrier cab with the latest Telus PRI. You should have an "update PRI" option in settings -> connections.

DCD... being that there is a "Test" update out there... could You PM me the "Update PRI" from the "Test" update for Verizon? You know... the PPST file CAB for the new Verizon update. That would solve my stupid "Roaming" issues on my Cloaned Sprint Mogul
DCD I would like that same test file if possible.
i do not have permission to release that.
from what gc14 has said, it disables your GPS anyways.

I would just use it to overwrite the Sprint PRI and get the ERI correct. Then I would redo it with the VZW original Stock rom... and then your wonderful DCD 3.2.5 and Radio 3.42.50

The VZW stock ROM does not include a PRI.
The VZW stock extrom contains a cab, "RadioRefurbish"
If you manage to flash a VZW Extrom and VZ stock ROM to your Mogul, RadioRefurbish will run during customizations.
However since your device was originally a Sprint Mogul, I believe that this would restore your default Sprint PRI.
You are correct on what you need, which is an actual PRI update from a verizon ROM update. However I cannot give this to you right now, and I am not sure you would be happy with it even if I could...

Yes. This I have tried. I even ran Radio Refurbish manually after I got everything working. It just reloaded the Sprint stuff.. to include the ESN.

Well... I just thought I'd ask. I haven't been using GPS, but tired of the Roaming. Wouldn't I be able to just run that PPST stuff...to fix the PRI/ERI... then reflash everything else... to include your carrier cab to fix anything that it could have messed up in regards to the GPS?

The PRI settings, including GPS enable/disable, are written as NV values that my carrier cabs cannot touch. I do not know how the verizon PRI is disabling GPS, I just took someones word for it. You may be able to turn it back on in QPST, I don't know.

Ahh in that case I don't need it. I will need it when I move my moguls to verizon but by the time that happens the VZW update will most likelu be out.
Hello.
I tried the update pri from the connections menu and I got "PPST : backup EFS failed."
I'm on telus...
Any ideas?
I just flashed with the latest telus update to get their updated PRI and then I flashed back to DCD.
Now, the GPS won't work at all, even though it is enabled in the dialer/location settings.
Any thoughts?
Hello all,
I finally talked AT&T into giving me an unlock code for my Fuze. But they said I needed to put another carriers sim in before it would prompt me for the code.
Is there another way to enter this code?
I would like to do this so I can flash a different radio.
Thanks for all the help.

Nope. Must have a non AT&T Sim, If you go to nextel, or t-mobile, they might sell you one. Besides this is NOT what you do to flash a rom, you need to read the sticky regarding SPL and Security unlocker. All the code does is sim unlock, you need security unlock and spl.
I have been flashing roms to the Fuze as well as to my 8525 for some time. But that post you cite didn't go into depth on how to unlock if and when AT&T gives you the code. It stated the only other way to do it besides an aftermarket unlocker is to get it unlocked by AT&T.
Which is what I thought they gave me. Just no directions or anything on how to do it.
You've been a member here for a year and a half, claim to have flashed Roms to both Fuze and 8525 but don't know about HardSPL or what Security Unlocked is?
Here's the short of it:
At&t provides a SIM Unlock Code so you can put another provider's SIM into your phone. The first time you do this the phone will ask for your unlock code, enter it and you're done.
HardSPL CID Unlocks your device so you can flash cooked Roms or Roms from other providers. It also prevents the SPL from being overwritten so you don't have to worry about unwanted security upgrades.
Security Unlocking is the ultimate, on a Raphael it allows you to flash properly modified BlackStone, Experia & Diamond Radio Roms. It also prevents a Radio Rom from getting locked onto you device.
Now I'm closing this thread as it has served it's prupose and cluttered the search results even further.

I have a HTC ATT Titan that is loaded with HSPL (as far as I can tell) - but will not load any ROMS that require radio 17. The screen remains stuck on the HTC logo. If I switch to radio 16 and a supported rom, it works.
1) can someone please confirm if I have infact HSPL running as it should
2) is this a known problem with ATT HTC for it to remain stuck on radio 16?
Thanks

It's not a problem of AT&T. I had the same issue with my euro Titan. Stuck at radio 16.
This is how I fixed it
BTW - not so long ago I decided to flash back radio 16 because of the signal strength and faster network detection.
So I cooked my rom based on 2.05 OEM and tried to downgrade radio to 16 from 17. And I realized that now I'm stuck at radio 17
So I did all things again as I described in my linked post but for downgrade. And downgraded successfully.
One more tip - OEM 2.05 works definitely better for me than OEM 4.06 used with 17 radio.
I followed these instructions, but like any other method - the SPL screen still shows Radio 16. Looks like nothing changes it.
BTW step #7 in your linked post, the file cannot be found for Radio 17 - I do have it from other post, the names exactly matches so I think I have the one you wanted me to load for radio 17 - but still does not wor.
Thanks

As far as you're able to install HSPL (according to your homescreen) and you're unable to install radio - I would offer to use 7.8 custom rom based on 2.05 OEM. Believe me - you won't miss anything with 16 radio.
What is your native tongue? I ask because if it's English or Russian - I can offer my rom (it has only two langs). If it's different - you should wait until ultrashot will make his dynamics next ver. He is going to make it in two instances - for 16 and 17 radio.
P,S, I fixed the radio link in my post.
US English.
What I am really after is to use to unlock the ATT phone - so any ROM that will allow me to unlock this from ATT would be great.
Thanks

If so - I can cook you a 7.8 today (today means - I can start in 7-8 hours and hopefully it's ready within 12 hours). Will send link in PM. It will boot as 0409.

Sure - why the hell should I cook carrier-dependent rom? My second name is not ATT It's just 7.8 - 2.05 OEM based rom for Titan 0409. Also without most of HTC $hitware like HUB, ConnectedMedia etc. You may install it from the market if you want
Check PM - all links there.
Thanks Andrew, the ROM loaded fine and seems to work ok. but But, the dreaded unlock situation is still unresolved. Everytime I reboot, the "enter your pin" screen shows up.
When I boot the titan, the splash screen does say configuring unlok status or something close to this - but then pops up the "enter carriee provided pin" kind of message asking for unlock pin.
Please let me know if you have some pointers on this.
Thanks again for your help - I know you do not have to, but you are.

There is a lot of services like that on e-bay. Find most acceptable for you and go ahead.
You now have the same situation as I had with my Leo TMOUS. You should buy (or receive from your carrier) the unlock code generated for your IMEI. You can not find any rom that will fix this issue.
I was sure that you have carrier-unlocked Titan. The unlocking takes a couple of seconds and takes effect forever - future flashing can not change anything later.
Andrew - I have an unlock code from 3rd party and it unlocks the phone fine, but when rebooted, it asks for the code again.
The same behavior was observed with your ROM as well. So whether I use a stock ATT cingular ROM or your ROM I am seeing the same results - the unlock code is asked again after a reboot.
Thanks

That can only mean that your unlock code is not good. But if it works until reboot - it's better than nothing. Either try to obtain another unlock code or continue inserting code after reboot.
From my experience - I got official unlock code from carrier - so I had to enter it only once and than - forgot about that.
So I called ATT and the rep looked it up with the IMEI numer and said we do not have an unlock code for this phone. Apparently on septemer 20, 2012 some code was released, and that I should look it up on google.
Running out of options....
Is there a way I can go ack to 1.0 SPL, I had that before I installed the HSPL / SPL 2.5 - and it seems nothing can change than anymore.

I have the US Cellular version of the photon (electrify). I believe I upgraded to 2.3.5 but I don't fully remember, and proceeded to root. I however did not have my battery fully charged. As I was late to some print on the how-to-root page about keeping the battery at one hundred percent. So now my phone is stuck in Failed to Boot 1 when powered on. When power held with Vol up it goes to Fastboot and when held with Vol down it flashes then shuts back off. SO, my question is... do I need to unlock my bootloader or do I have to flash a stock sbf and all that jazz? Any help on the subject would be greatly appreciated, including locations of any files or drivers I might need or just a simple point to a thread that will tell me everything I need to know.
I've just confirmed it is 2.3.5 locked bootloader stock everything but I did use the OTA update. Is that bad?

You can just slip in an activated pre paid sim card and it should work. Sprint doesnt have prepaid, if you're trying to use sprint just flash the sprint radios. As far as not being able to get into recovery, what did you do prior?

I flashed the 1FF-Sunfire sbf for stock 2.3.5 and it rebooted the phone but peetr says that you have to add a bootstrap recovery and flash a sprint radio aswell as another rom but I dont need to do anything special to the phone I just had this one and decided to fix it. I thought sim card use was only for outside of the US? I know I can get it on a standard pre-paid plan but i'll have to find out monday if it will work, I mean when a dial a number into the phone it tell's me I need to purchase a pre-paid pin and it gives me different types of plans? My plan is just to go and get it on US cell pre-paid for 65 a month.
