Boot Loader - Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development

I've had trouble getting bluetooth to work since flashing to DCD. I haven't had any trouble with anything else. I've got the new Verizon MR1 update installed and everything is stock other than the boot loader which is the No2Chem 2.47 loader. Aside from the possibility that it's the reason my BT doesn't work, I guess I need to send the phone for repair. Either way, I should get a stock loader in there. Anyone have any suggestions for a stock loader? Did the MR1 need anything other than the original loader? In other words, if I put the old loader in there, will I have a problem booting? Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks

keeps restarting after booting up

Hello all
i need some help. just finished upgrading my mogul and it keeps on rebooting after a few seconds after it reaches the today screen. i have tried dcd 2.2.4 and 2.2.6 with same results.
i believe if i keep it plugged into the computer it will stay on. any help please!??!
thanks
I just had the exact same problem. Did you load any other software after flashing the radio and rom?
Unfortunately i couldnt find a solution that involved DCD's roms. I flashed to 2.4 2.6, 1.6 new radios but nothing worked. I had to use no2chems nuerom 2.0 buld 5044 which works great, but doesnt have the verizon specifics. GPS is good and its fast. If anyone else comes up with something please let us know as i would like to have some of that software back.
this has been posted many times.
most likely you do not have the new bootloader installed.

go here get the 2.40 bootloader and start over
thanks for the quick responses!!
first time doing all this, but nothing to hard i think in my opinion. you just have to get over the learning curve.
i used this guide: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=17667
which bootloader should i use if that guide led me to the wrong one?
also where can i find the other rom?
thanks for the bootloader. i will give it a shot now
2. If you are using 3.16+ code then you need either:
>>>a. The reLocker if upgrading to the unofficial carrier released rom
>>>b. the unLocker (new) 2.40 if running custom built roms
you'll learn the terms eventually....
just an FYI
do a search on here and on google FIRST if you run into problems because most likely you'll not be the first to have the issue.
but if you can't find any answers most people here will be willing to help
just verified, i am already using 2.40
also im not new to forums... i am well aware of google and search tools. these forum websites are getting annoying with spam protection that half the time when i tried doing a search, it would not complete it.
i knew i was running a stock 3.16
did you have an old custom bootloader? you need to relock it if so then run the 2.40
if its like mine then when you relock it you will lock up on the bootloader and have to do exit bootloader to get back to the splash screen where it will lock again. I even flashed back to the stock rom and it relaoded. I think it may be an glitch in the s.27 radio personally.
i went from the latest stock to custom using the guide above. is there a need to relock it or do you leave it unlocked?
if you go from stock to custom bootloader and upgrading the radio 3.27 and a DCD rom you don't need to relock it.
you only need to relock for the leaked sprint rom
did you upgrade the radio too?
yes i used titan_radio_3.27.00
when i go into boot mood i get this:
TITA100
SPL-1.20.0lipra
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
is this how it should be?
please and thank you everyone for your help!!!
that should say olipro 2.40
who is your carrier? sprint, verizon.......
my carrier is sprint
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=9093
run the 2.40 spl and start over
okay so you want me to run the hard spl again and then dcd??? or should i do the titan radio 3.27.00 before dcd

Another Rainbow screen

Verizo 6800
After following the rom and radio upgrade steps I relocked the phone using Titan relocker as I was instructed. Now I get the rainbow boot screen showing SPL 1.06. Now the phone won't take any other programming on the USB. The best luck I had was using the Sprint rom but that fails at 11% with an wrong provider error. The Verizon rom fails at 0%. I tried relocking again and unlocking but all attempts fail. Any help would be appreciated.

I would like to know WHERE you found the instructions that said to relock the phone after upgrading to a custom rom and radio.
Also please provide more information in your post...are you upgrading from verizon stock? Are you trying to flash a custom 3.0.x rom with the new 3.35.04 radio?
More Info
Upgraded from stock 2.09 to Titan 2.10 then Titan radio 3.27. All Went well then the relocker!

"Upgrade to 3.35.651.2:
3. If running pre-3.16 code,
>a. run the relocker
(don't worry about getting out of the bootloader - tri-color screen)"
It won't get out of the tri-color bootloader and won't respond to downloads. The computer can't see the phone on the usb port.
You should ignore the name in "re-locker" You don't have to re-lock anything after flashing. Now your best bet is to run olipro's 2.40. It is the new Titan un-locker, then flash your ROM.
The problem you're having is you're trying to flash a 3.0.x rom on your phone and you have a stock bootloader that will only flash/boot verizon signed roms. I'm not sure who wrote that tutorial, but you don't have to relock anything after you unlock (unless you're trying to flash BACK to stock).
Run 2.40-olipro titan unlocker to unlock your phone again so you can run the sprint/htc update. Then cook a verizon 3.0.x rom, or flash the clean rom already cooked.
Wont work now

I do not think he is not going to be able to run 2.4 in from the bootloader screen because it is not signed by VZW. He is going to need a stock VZW RUU, run it in, then he can go forward again.
Right...i kind of assumed he knew this by me posting that 1.06 would only flash/boot signed verizon roms. I guess I shouldnt have assumed.
You need to get the stock verizon rom AND radio...flash them from the bootloader youre in. Once the stock stuff is on there...let the phone boot up. Now you can unlock with 2.4...and run the sprint update once again...and after that...a custom 3.x.x verizon rom.
Do NOT relock after!
aThanks
Where can I find a stock verizon Rom?

HELP

Hi I'm looking for some help. I tried upgrading my XV6800 to the windows 6.5 rom but I think I might of messed up. I tried to update my radio first but ran in to issues.
I used Oilpro 1.20 to try and tried to update the radio but along the way messed up while trying an older rom and I'm currently at a Verizon screen with the message "NO RADIO" at the bottom. I'm assuming the radio rom was erased. I might have gotten confused with the roms and used a rom without the appopriate Radio. When I try to flash that rom back to a stock Verizon upgrade it just ends 11% in to the flashing process and the rom update utility returns a Error 290 screen.
Currently I can get the oilpro 1.20 bootloader to still load up but I'm not sure what to do at this point. I tried updating the ROM to DCD's older 3.20 roms, which did complete but I still have that screen coming up. Can anyone give me some suggestions on what I should do next? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try using NueSPL 2.47 it's more current
Doesn't have have to be run on the phone itself once inside Windows? The only screen I can get up is the Verizon (splash) screen where it normally lists the rom and radio, or the oilpro boot loader screen. I actually can't get back in to windows to run the nueSPL 2.40.exe file.
Is there a way for me to flash the radio back from a bootloader screen and USB or SD card? The thing is I actually tried to take the 3.42.40 radio and use the Flash Rom Utility to see if it would flash the radio rom back on but even though the process completes successfully, I still get the no radio error so I guess it doesn't work. Thanks for the help, I think I may have been a few of the idiots out there who screwed things up and didn't make sure the radio was up before attempting any rom upgrade.
You should've changed the bootloader first. Your radios that you are trying are not compatible with your bootloader.
Flash an old stock rom via SD, then update your bootloader to 2.47 once you can get back into windows, then update your radio, and then your rom.
Yeah that was one of the first things I've tried a USB update back to the stock Verizon 6.1 ROM, but for some reason it prematurely ends at 11% with the PDA Phone Update Utility throwing a ERROR 290 message. This is the first time this has happened as I've flashed with this same rom tons of times. I've been looking online for the past hour on how to flash the ROM from a SD card if I can't get in to Windows. But all I could find was the USB update utility and it ends at 11% Am I doing it wrong? any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
If you can still get in the bootloader then you should be fine....I would put it manually in bootloader holding power and camera simultaneously and poke the hole to get it into bootloader.
Once you do that plug in the data cable and run Olipro 2.40 or Nue 2.47. It should be able to take after that.
Basics steps to flashing a phone:
correct unlocker-->stock ROM-->custom ROM
Most custom ROMs will not include Radios that why you would run the stock ROM first to install the radio and then run the custom ROM. Alot simpler then trying to update the Radio by itself.
AWESOME! I got it back up, thanks guys. For reference purposes I'm going to restate the problem and solution incase other noobs run in to the same issue.
PROBLEM:
I installed oilpro 1.2 during the process of installing a new radio then a rom. Along the way the rom install failed. I tried to reinstall a stock Verizon rom RUU 3.57 & 3.37 radio but it failed at 11%. I was then stuck at the splash screen with a message that said NO RADIO. I could still get in to the boot loader with the power and camera button. But the stock Verizon rom did not install anymore.
SOLUTION:
I used titan_exitbl.exe to exit the bootloader and I went back to an earlier rom found here, rom 2.09 & radio 1.30. That one actually installed. It seems to have worked. I'm back in windows now but I need to uninstall oil pro 1.2 and get nuSPL 2.47 on there before I move further (it looks like while it's still on the stock RUU won't work for me).
Do you guys know how I would go about uninstalling Oilpro 1.2? Will Titan_relocker do it for me? I'm not sure if installing nueSPL over oilpro will do it.
Use this ROm from Verizon to get the Stock 6.1 back up and running. It's the MR2 rom

Glad to hear you got your phone back up
As far as I know you should be able to just install 2.47 and it will overwrite your old bootloader without problems. I could be mistaken but there isn't really a way to "uninstall" a bootloader, just overwrite it with a different one.
unL33T is correct...just run Nue 2.47 and let it overwrite the old one. 8p
Yeah that's what I thought too, but when I tried to over right it with 2.47 the 1.20 showed up again so I used the titan_relocker tool. Maybe I did something wrong. I'll go recheck, thanks for the replies guys.

[Q] Stuck in Bootloader

Hello all, I know this is an old phone so not many people care for it anymore, but I was trying to get mine back to stock so I can use it while the phone I am using now is out for repairs. I am having issues getting it back to stock though and these issues resulted in my phone becoming stuck in bootloader. I have relocked my phone and tried both flashing a PG86IMG.ZIP from bootloader and from fastboot, both of them fail. Is there maybe a step I am missing? Or possibly have I completely bricked my phone? Could it be that I need a more updated RUU? (they have been kinda hard to find, it seems that a lot of the mirrors have been taken down.)
Thank you in advance for your help.
Is there a fail message? Do you remember what version rom you had?
Can't remember what version rom I had. It has been a while since I have done anything with it.
You locked with custom rom, recovery, or kernel. Looks like stock was v2.95 or v2.89 problem is they never released a full PG86img.zip for 2.95
I've an update which might fix it or possible 2.89 zip might work. Will upload them when I can. But if you can unlock, then it might be possible to edit misc partition to allow you to install an older rom
