Upgrading Radio - Need help - Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development

Forgive me if this is discussed somewhere - searched and did not see it.
I have two moguls that I am trying to flash to cricket (with Ryan Moguls ROM).
Currently, they both have the following:
Bootloader: SPL-1.07
Radio: 1.69
I am needing to upgrade the radio to 3.xx first, I have tried to upgrade w/ SD, but gets stuck at the Loading screen.
What am I missing? Do I need to do another step prior to upgrading the radio?
Thanks for any help!

First you need to unlock the bootloader (olipro 2.40). Then you can flash any GPS radio or ROM.
Boot your device up unplugged and then connect it to the computer and make sure active sync is connected before flashing the bootloader. Now run the Olipro 2.40 unlocked Bootloader and follow its instructions until it comes up saying you must unplug and plug the phone back in. PLEASE dont miss that, DO NOT hit a key to continue UNTIL you have UNPLUGGED the phone waited a moment, then plugged it back in. Then you can hit a key and continue but PAUSE again and minimize that window. Now right click the Active sync icon on your PC's taskbar. Pick connection settings and then look for the Box with Allow USB connections. Clear the box (disable) the usb connections. Then click OK. Now open the window back up and click to continue. That will exit the Bootloader and reset the phone. Now right away UNPLUG the phone and Manually place it in Bootloader Manually. Now PLUG the phone back into the PC.

Excellent - thanks Ryan! BTW, amazing ROM, It works great!
I also have another mogul w/ the 1.20 Oli BL. Will this process work for that also?
Thanks!

Edit: Here is what I do with a Stock phone. If its NON GPS Stock I usually connect to active sync and first flash a Newer Stock GPS ROM which includes a GPS radio. Then I find out the SPC code (getspc or bafmsl depending if ROM has net framework or not) as the stock ROM usually changes that. Then I change my SPC code to all zeros. Then I flash the Olipro 2.40. That way it boots up the Stock GPS ROM. Then I flash my Custom ROM followed by flashing a newer GPS radio using SD card method.

Actually I spoke to quick - phone will not boot now after unlocking and loading the radio - Radio installed fully, but now it is stuck at the initial screen. Did I do something wrong?

Totally confused about unlocking Cingular 8525

Apparently, I'm pretty stupid.
I just got the Cingular 8525; I have spent two hours on this site.
Things I've noticed:
One page says go into bootloader; one page says not to allow usb connections.
I do not know if I am supposed to have my non-Cingular SIM card already in the phone when attempting to do anything.
I have seen connect via USB and use mtty (with what settings do I use when I click on USB from the dropdown menu (if any) and do I connect with mtty via USB in bootloader or when the phone has booted into Windows 5.0 and again what about the non-Cingular SIM card?).
I have flashed my computers BIOS several times but I do not understand how to flash this phone based on the myriad of instructions all over this site (and RFTW did not help which is why I am here with 40000000 questions).
The steps to go from SPL 1.06 to an unlocked SIM/CID phone are?
Things I do understand:
I have SPL 1.06 (I know this from bootloader).
I must downgrade to 1.04 from 1.06 then run the upgrade to 1.06 from the Hermes Upgrade wiki page (I already downloaded all of the Cingular files).
Thanks in advance for any clarification.
I unlocked my 8525 last week, I had bootloader 1.06 so I downgraded to a ROM with boetloader 1.04(you can find it here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades ).. then just follow the instructions in the zip file you downloaded(i used HERM_Unlock_v2a), which are:
1. Enter bootloader mode on your Phone. To do this, simultaneously hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus.
[You should see SPL-1.04 on the top of the tri-color screen, if you see SPL-1.06 this unlocker will not work, please wait for the next version]
2. Connect your phone to your computer using the USB lead.
3. Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe program – this will reflash your phone with a patched radio ROM required to unlock.
4. Wait patiently.
5. Once the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe upgrade completes, it will end up saying "Upgrade Error 114", but the patched radio ROM will be flashed anyway, dont worry about that error!
6. Soft reset with stylus (Device will not be hard reset and no data will be lost)
7. Allow your phone to reboot. Once it has, connect to your PC using Activesync, and copy the HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe program onto your phone. Alternatively, copy it to an SD card and insert into your phone.
8. Run HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe on your phone. Wait about 1 minute.
9. You should see a "SUCCESS!" message from HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe, after that soft reset your phone.
10. Process is (hopefully) complete!
11. If the phone requests unlock code when you put a locked SIM, the code is: 22051978
I assume I want go to 1.04 for Cingular which is 1.30.502.1.
What about my SIM card? Is it supposed to be in phone when I run this file? (it's a t-mobile sim).
I assume the activesync connection via usb is okay? I cannot get it to connect (even though the phone is on and booted into Windows 5.0); is this because I have not inserted the SIM card into the phone? Note: after I unplugged the device, setting allow USB connections on the device in the ActiveSync settings, then plugging it back in, it connected via USB in ActiveSync (4.2). However, I just got a box saying the version of ActiveSync is not compatible with this mobile device. This occured after I started the installer and it showing Verifying the information on your PDA phone.
I received an update error 260 since it thinks the phone is not connected via USB (and I noticed the ActiveSync icon in the system tray is gone).
I went to check the M$ page to see if there is a later download; there is not. Then, the AS icon return (trying to update outlook, install nero mobile) so I decided to run the installer again and now sees my current version 1.34.502.1 and I have the option to upgrade ROM

It is ok, but generally it causes more problems than it helps. Best is to disable the checkbox that says "enable usb connections" on activesync settings and you'll see the icon on the system tray turn gray with a red "X". Then you need to start the RUU when the device is in bootloader mode (tri-color screen). After you have upgrded the rom (or radio rom) you can reenable activesync again if you want.

Icon was gone because RUU checks your current rom version using activesync and then kills it an put device in bootloaer mode. If RUU cannot kill activesync correctly errors happen:
You will avoid the 260 error if you disable usb connections on desktop activesync as I told you, and start the upgrade in bootloader mode... only difference you'll notice is that RUU will not report your current rom version.
Hey. I left the RUU software running (the 25+ minute variety) while I went to buy a case and care charger. I came back and evidently, the phone had rebooted because, it is at the Windows Mobile screen to setup the Windows Mobile device. I assume it is safe to do the 2a software. After that, am I able to update the RUU back to 1.06?
Thanks for your help, Milan and pof!
I rebooted into bootloader to confirm successful downgrade to 1.04 from 1.06 and it was. The RUU software from the upgrade page for Cingular appears to have been successful.
I am now going to attempt the 2a software.
Yes, now follow all the instructions on sim&cid unlocker v2a, and when finished, flash the cingular 1.34 rom again.

It's now on the upgrade screen to Radio 1.16.00.69 but it does not show the previous version. Is this normal? I have not pressed upgrade yet. I have the splitter with the AC and USB cables into the phone (currently in bootloader mode at SPL-1.04).
yes, it is normal... i told you before:

I got the 114 error as promised in the readme. I exited the program using the EXIT button.
The next step:
6. Soft reset with stylus (Device will not be hard reset and no data will be lost)
On the phone display, it still shows Upgrade Radio Stack Please Wait..
The soft reset is the simultaneous OK and Power?
I just took the battery out and reset; it appeared to go okay. I copied the exe file to the phone and was able to run the file as in the readme. I then reset the phone, put in the t-mobile sim and it works.
Thanks much to POF and Milan for their straightforward approach. You can use this thread as a tutorial!
Is there any reason I should add the 1.06 file back to the unlocked 8525?
SPL 1.06 to SPL 1.04 back to SPL 1.06?
Hi:
I followed pof's (with pof's help) tutorial on how to unlock the Cingular 8525. I am currently at SPL 1.04 (downgraded form SPL 1.06) and had run the v2a software to unlock. It works great with T-mobile (I was a Cingular customer but made the switch).
My questions are:
Is there any reason to go back SPL 1.06?
If I do go back to SPL 1.06, it does not affect the unlock status of the SIM or CID?
I still am confused about the Radio and what that does in relation to the CID, SIM, or phone. I assume the Radio is affected the SPL version that you have?
I have tried to peruse through various pages regarding downgrading (the 13 page thread for example) to see if that question is answered.
The radio ROM controls the GSM/GPRS/UMTS hardware in your hermes. You cannot independently upgrade it unless you are running SPL 1.04. There is no reason IMO to go to any other bootloader version.

Oh okay, that clears up yet something else I did not understand
Thanks for the tip on the bootloader version; I will leave it at SPL 1.04.
That being said, I am currently in the middle of the Radio 1.20 thread; I have not finished reading it yet (I can only do so much at work before people wonder what I am doing). Have you upgraded to Radio 1.20? If not, what radio are you running and what do you think of its stability and/or functionality?
Thanks!
I'm running the 1.20 radio. It and the 1.35 TyTN ROM are the best combination I've used so far.

Stuck at "rainbow screen"

So I'm a total n00b at unlocking phones but I was trying to unlock my alltel 6800 and after running the program and following the steps I'm stuck on the screen that is red/green/blue/white that shows the rom info and says USB at the bottom when plugged into the pc. I tried a hard boot/soft etc. and can't find a solution. Also activesync is not recoginizing it. Thanks much for any help.
i believe you have to flash it with a new rom/radio.
download the the newest radio. connect your phone via usb. your screen should be in the tricolor (2.40spl) at this point. run the radio flash.
Download a new rom. do the same as above.
to get to tricolor screen (hold power + camera + press soft reset)
Yeah i'm thinking I might have to load it from the SD card but I can't find my stinkin adapter so I can format the SD card. Activesync is not recognizing my phone at all.

it IS recognizing the phone being plugged in if it says USB at the bottom, so just flash a new rom/radio and you should be good.
HOLD, Give a little more info please

OK, before it is bricked, tell us the numbers on the rainbow screen, then if it is 1.6 then run the 2.40 olipro, then new ROM, then radio. It is not broken yet, activesync does not like it when the unit is in bootloader mode so it will not show it, but the RUU will work if you just go forward with it and when done it will get you out of bootloader. If you get confused and lost then being an alltel unit you can put the 1.6 bootloader back on, run the stock RUU from utstar.com, bring it back stock and start again.
I got it fixed and installed the sprint firmware but silly me let it run through the setup and now it's trying to use the spring network. Sometimes I wish i could punch myself in the face..
Ok so i got no2chem up and running great but I still can't actually dial out. When i dial it says i'm not allowed to etc after a few rings. Is there some way to change back to the alltel network?
ok now i'm running titan 3.35 but can no longer get active sync which is required to relock the phone. I've tried everything but activesync does not want to work anymore. Any ideas?

First of all, you don't relock your phone...you leave 2.4-olipro on it because it's required to boot your phone with this rom on it.
Second, go into activesync settings and make sure usb is enabled in the connections.
get back to Alltel,,,,

I'm sorry but i'm not familiar with those terms. I do have USB enabled on activesync though but it never detects it.
From reading other threads I assumed I had to relock it, then reload the alltel rom to get the radio working again. Is there another way?
I got the factory alltel rom back in and working but it's not letting me make calls still. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Well i got my phone working finally but now the data line is not working. It says I need a password now which I haven't needed before.

SPL 2.40 Help

I have a VZW HTC6800 and I need to get the SPL 2.40 on the device so I can move forward. I get to the point where it ask for the disconnect/reconnect but on the reconnect I cannot get it to see ActiveSYnc. I have searched for an answer and cannot find one. What danger would I have if I did not disconnect and continue will I still get the 2.40?

you can make sure you got 2.40 correctly, by manually entering bootloader. (power+camera+reset) if it says that you have 2.40, then you got it. so you can proceed, if not then go back and try again to make sure you get it

You're not supposed to see activesync at that stage. Disconnect and reconnect, and continue with the process.
Make sure also that you HEAR the tones that acompany the disconnect and connect... You will hear tones.... On disconnect you will hear tones that decend, and on connect they will ascend....

OK...will try again...when I disconnect then reconnect this is done in the DOS window. After that I do I do hit continue and the RUU I guess you would call it comes up. In that procedure it request that an active sync connect be made and this is where I have been for hours trying to get it to connect. If I never disconnected in DOS I would be OK but I know this is required...
Oh well...must mean I do not need it...

Yeah it's fine...just keep going...as long as when you reconnect, at the bottom of the bootloader screen it says USB and not Serial, then you're fine.
Thx...that info did help...
For any newbies like me this might help. I followed the instructions hanging off each word for each step. One the SPL update entering into the Windows GUI and I attempting over & over to connect to active sync because the instructions state to do so before checking the box. Maybe it was dumb of me but I never saw it stated to ignore that step from WiKi page...so hope that helps someone down the road.
Pros...now that I am updated is it safe to add tweaking apps like tweaks2k2 or Pocket Toolman. I am sure some reg hacks are added but do not want to cross up anything with the new 312 rom? Please advise?
I have vista64 is there a way to install the spl using vista64 or the sd card
When I posted this I was on the 2.40 boot loader but now I am on the 2.47. This loader is loaded from the SD card so all the trouble I posted you will not see. Sorry I do not have the link but do a search for the 2.47 you will see it and how to load it off a SD card.
i really need help,
i started off connected to activesync but thn im getting error saying pput.exe is being used by something else now i have colored screen with TITA100 and SPL-1.30.Olipro
i dont know what to doo, please someone help, new in these filed.
Thank you
EDITED: got it working... sorry
Thx
my turn
I am trying this on my old 6800 ( broke rubber power button) before I do new one.
I am on Verizon, don't care about GPS, running STB but really like features on 6.5. I have read everything I can find and still confused. Do I need to change anything if all I want is 6.5?
Also, when asked to plug and unplug usb, I get tones remove and replug, but then I get connection error and stay in 3 color spl-2.40
Thanks...

stuck in bootloader 1.20
i tried to upgrade my daughter's Titan, firmware 1.4 so fsirly old, no gps. When I started the phone hooked up fine with Mobile Device Center. I ran Olipro 1.2 fine did the unplug and replug fine and got success message. Then couldn't restart the phone and now it won't connect through Device Center, so nothing else will run. Wanted to run Olipro 2.40 and then flash a GPS enabled rom and radio.
I have read everything I can find on here, but without a connection thru Device Center I am stuck.
Have I bricked the phone?
Ok got the phone working again with extbl.
Thank for listening.

[Resolved]: Stuck at Bootloader 1.06, titan_exitbl.exe isn't working.

Hi Folks,
I'm stuck in the tri-color screen for bootloader 1.06.
I have DCD 3.2.0 w/3.42.02 radio on the XV6800 and was trying to upgrade to radio 3.42.30. My system is Vista 32-bit.
I ran the Titan Relocker and it put SPL-1.06.0000 back onto the device and was planning on then putting 1.2 onto it.
Running titan_exitbl.exe says "Cannot open USB port. Please make sure, that USB connection in ActiveSync is disabled."
Unfortunately it is now stuck and even after ending the Sync Center service I can't get titan_exitbl.exe to pull it out of the Boot Loader.
Ideas? Thank you!
I could fire up an old XP laptop and try it from there.
Loaded ActiveSync 4.5 on an XP laptop, disabled USB connections, ran titan-exebl.exe and the device is booting now.
I'll continue on and see what else I can screw up.
Loaded SPL 1.20
Loaded 3.42.30
Loaded SPL 2.40
Device is back to working! Off to see if GPS is back after being lost with 3.42.02.
titan-exebl.exe
Where can I find titan-exebl.exe? Google doesn't turn up any results other than here?
titan_exitbl.exe
Never mind... just located it on my own hard drive!
Cheers!
Stuck on Bootloader
OK... I've tried titan_exitbl.exe, and it still doesn't work.
Here's my problem in chronological order:
1. I've been having a few problems (bugs) in my current custom ROM (PPC Kitchen 3.49 version), so I decided to re-flash to a stock ROM, see if the problems were fixed, and then try to flash back to a custom ROM.
2. I tried flashing to the Sprint 3.35 ROM. The RUU showed the progress bar on both my PC and the phone. But at 0%, I got a message saying "an error has occured" - or something to that effect.
3. I decided that the error was because I was running a custom ROM, and Sprint didn't like that. So I ran the Titan Relocker utility, thinking this would cure the problem.
4. I followed the steps on the screen and then got a message saying the relocker utility had completed successfully. The phone rebooted and went into the tri-color bootloader mode.
5. I retried the Sprint 3.35 ROM update, but got the same connection error, and the progress slider would never move from 0%.
6. I decided the phone had locked up and performed a reset with the stylus. The phone rebooted and went back into bootloader mode. The screen shows "TITA100 SPL-1.06.0000"
7. And that's as far as I've gotten. I've tried several hard resets using the buttons and the stylus together. I've tried removing the battery and reinstalliong... but the phone just goes back into bootloader mode.
I've tried both titan_exitbl.exe and UNI_Exitbootloader.exe, and neither utility seems to help. I get a message saying that "All data was sent... the phone will reboot now... please check your screen". The phone's screen blinks for a moment, and then returns to bootloader. Nothing can get it anywhere else.
I've tried different USB cables and ports. Activesync won't detect it, but the utility update software does.
When I run the Sprint 3.35 ROM update utility, I get an error at 11% saying "invalid vendor ID" and the update refuses to run. I tried to run the Titan Re-locker utility again, but it requires an ActiveSync connection. I've tried both enabling and disabling the USB connection in ActiveSync, but that seems to make no difference. The utility simply says no USB connection is available. The ROM update utilities will detect the device via USB - they just refuse to work with them.
I also tried running a DCD Tital 2.1.0 Bell ROM. The progress slider freezes at 0%, and then I get a message saying the RUU has encountered communication errors during the update. I've been through the recovery process the utiity suggests about a dozen times... it sill returns the phone to the bootloader screen.
So I'm getting pretty frustrated... does anyone have any ideas?
Try changing your spl back to 2.40.
Throwing it back into the tri color screen again and flash the sprint stock 3.35
But put it on the root of a fat32 formatted micro sd card in the flavor of under 2gb.
Just run the exe from your computer it will extract the files from the exe to some location on your computer, normally the ruu update folder.
There will be a ruu_sighned.nbh file locate it and copy it to the fat32 formatted card rename it TITAIMG.nbh
Let the phone boot into the bootloader and it should detect the file on the sd and update the rom for you, by stating loading ......
Then will prompt you to update press power key.
Sense you are not on sprint don't let the first time custimizations run ... pull battery once you get to your mobile today screen on first boot...
Use active sync or the sd method to update your rom to whatever you wanted originally.
Most full updates from carriers the ones that flash both the radio and rom will run regardless of the boot loader thats on the device.
Happy flashing
Just thought I'd toss in here that GPS does work, but I have to use GPS Viewer to get a lock on the satellites first.

4. I followed the steps on the screen and then got a message saying the relocker utility had completed successfully. The phone rebooted and went into the tri-color bootloader mode.
5. I retried the Sprint 3.35 ROM update, but got the same connection error, and the progress slider would never move from 0%.
6. I decided the phone had locked up and performed a reset with the stylus. The phone rebooted and went back into bootloader mode. The screen shows "TITA100 SPL-1.06.0000"
7. And that's as far as I've gotten. I've tried several hard resets using the buttons and the stylus together. I've tried removing the battery and reinstalliong... but the phone just goes back into bootloader mode.
I've tried both titan_exitbl.exe and UNI_Exitbootloader.exe, and neither utility seems to help. I get a message saying that "All data was sent... the phone will reboot now... please check your screen". The phone's screen blinks for a moment, and then returns to bootloader. Nothing can get it anywhere else.
I've tried different USB cables and ports. Activesync won't detect it, but the utility update software does.
When I run the Sprint 3.35 ROM update utility, I get an error at 11% saying "invalid vendor ID" and the update refuses to run. I tried to run the Titan Re-locker utility again, but it requires an ActiveSync connection. I've tried both enabling and disabling the USB connection in ActiveSync, but that seems to make no difference. The utility simply says no USB connection is available. The ROM update utilities will detect the device via USB - they just refuse to work with them.
I also tried running a DCD Tital 2.1.0 Bell ROM. The progress slider freezes at 0%, and then I get a message saying the RUU has encountered communication errors during the update. I've been through the recovery process the utiity suggests about a dozen times... it sill returns the phone to the bootloader screen.
So I'm getting pretty frustrated... does anyone have any ideas?

Yes, i try from SD and nothing stuck on loading... from windows with RUU nothing 0% stuck and then UPDATE ERROR[262] now i don't know to do
2.4 doesnt use sd and it is run from a .exe. Make sure you aren't trying 2.47. Are you sure you tried this?

Ok, but how run from windows? If i cant connect via activesyncs the phone is on SPL mode i cant out of that and the msdos windows say "No device conected" when press enter from windows i cant unlock. Any idea? I'll try 2.47 but how run from windows with the phone en SPL Mode?
Please read. I said run 2.4 not 2.47. Put the phone in bootloader and it should say usb at the bottom. Then run 2.4 .exe unlocker. I think it should run without using activesync. And by spl mode do you mean the phone is in the bootloader.

Look i cant run Hard-SPL-MFG (Olipro 2.40 Unlocker) because when i run the Bat Or MSDOS Windows say "No device connect" question me if i want retray copy the file.
Ok so i guess it needs activesync. About your only option is to install a pregps rom so the phone will boot and then you can reflash the custom rom. Below is a pregps Verizon rom and radio that will work for 1.06 bootloader. Called rom 2.09.

Method B, via PC and RUU then ERROR INVALID VENDOR ID.

Titan Bootloader 1.07

I want to install dcd's newest Titan ROM to my phone. I'm just getting everything organized, and my bootloader isn't listed under the "Install the correct bootloader" heading on this page: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanRecentHome
I'm just wondering if anyone knows what I should do with my 1.07 bootloader?

Just boot up into your Current functioning OS and connect to Active sync until icon turns green, then. Now run the Olipro 2.40 unlocked Bootloader and follow its instructions until it comes up saying you must unplug and plug the phone back in. PLEASE dont miss that, DO NOT hit a key to continue UNTIL you have UNPLUGGED the phone waited a moment, then plugged it back in. Then you can hit a key and continue but PAUSE again and minimize that window. Now right click the Active sync icon on your PC's taskbar. Pick connection settings and then look for the Box with Allow USB connections. Clear the box (disable) the usb connections. Then click OK. Now open the window back up and click to continue. That will exit the Bootloader and reset the phone. Now right away UNPLUG the phone and Manually place it in Bootloader Manually. Now PLUG the phone back into the PC. Now flash your Custom ROM and GPS radio 3.35 and up. Hope this helps
Perfect instructions. Thank you very much!
Now...
1. Install the ROM using an ActiveSync connection and running the .exe file from my computer
2. Flash the radio .nbh file using a MicroSD card
3. Run the carrier customization once it's booted
Is this right?

Well everything is right except the Auto Cust. That depends on if you are using a different carrier than the Branding on the phone and its EXT ROM contents. But you got the idea.
Got it done. Thanks a lot for your help!
