Hi everybody. I've seen many people and posts about TITAN II eagerly waiting for the HSPL and custom roms and me to but now the bad news is HTC stopped giving updates for TITAN II and busy with the new project and more windows phones are coming out with OS 8. Even there are people waiting for the update for the Windows 7.8 so will there be 7.8 update coming for the TITAN II cause I prefer updating the OS rather than buying another Windows 8 Phone. Please give us the option to either update the phone to 7.8 or 8 or HSPL so that we can have custom roms running on our TITAN II and option to install 3rd party apps
Blame AT&T for it, not HTC.
HTC is more than happy to send you update for your phone without the Cellular testing it first.
If anybody knows a way to update Titan II unofficially, please post it. The phone is great and its a shame that AT&T has denied the updates.

You can do the update manually via Cab Sender but depending on what version of Windows Phone 7.x will depend on how many of the incremental updates you will need to do. You cannot simply jump from build 7720 to 8858 without setting up the others in sequence between the two builds.

Okay, thanks. Do you know if there's any way to port Android on Titan II? I've read few threads that say there isn't any way yet, but I'm still hoping there will be.
Sorry, how can I update the HTC Titan 2??? I can't find the files. Thanks

I don't have time tonight to chase the link but I assure you I posted it a few days ago within the Titan threads; all else fails Google it.
I will explain it today how to upgrade to 7.8. my phone it's 7.8 now.

I searched and tried the other day, go search for the "seven eighter", that's a software some nice guy wrote, and download it. I'll not search that for you, but it's very easy to find. Run that thing, and in the language pack, check(choose) every language for the US ATT HTC Titan II. That's what I have, again, this is true only for the ATT one because I only have that and I tried and it works, I can't say about any other variations. And continue, that Seveneighter will do all the rest for you, from 8112 to 8862, whole nine yard. You don't need to go find all the cabs yourself, what a life saver. I did the hard way for my Arrive when there's so such a nice script.

Thank you very much! sorry for ask but really I don't understand so much about upgrades of the phone. I found the "seven eighter" here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2202393; do you have some problem with this update? sorry for ask, but I read in some post that some people have some issues with the cab from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1815055.
Thanks for all!

What? You have 7.8 on your Titan 2? Please share with us how it was done!
I have this phone too, and it seems like quite a few people do as well. XDA claims that there's not enough users to justify it's own forum, but I think if it did or at least had it in the title, more people/talent would be brought here to work on it.
I agree the Titan II is a decent phone, though little has changed from titan 1, they paid attention to minor details for incremental improvements on the mic, reception, among the bigger changes (new camera and LTE).
I would love to have this upgraded to 7.8 and with internet sharing, it would make this phone very, very useable!

Hi, really I can't find any post here get me out my doubts about the process. I read a lot about it, and there were many people who had problems with some features like wifi, things that did not work after the upgrade; even on the process, someone were saying they had to select all languages others say that you must select only one; many questions for a newbie and with the danger of breaking the phone .
I was lucky to contact a friend of MVP who instructed me how to do it without problems; and he had the same phone and he already updated it.
The recomedacion he gave me were:
1. download the last seveneighter (latest version 7.8)
2. download the WP update tools, and install
3. remove the chip and run and update seveneighter
4. when asked about the language, I just select English and Spanish
the process takes me about 25min and everything worked perfect. all its functions works and did not lose any data from the phone (contacts, photos, apps). I hope you find it useful and get lucky. Just in case if I made a backup of everything.
Thanks to everyone!!!:good:

For 3., when you say "remove the chip", do you mean the back bottom piece of the phone? Or do you mean rip the phone a part and take out the soC? (I'm assuming it's the first thing)
For 4., when you say that you selected English and Spanish, is that just due to preference or must you select both for it to work correctly?
Lastly, that's awesome to hear that it works perfectly, when you say "all it's functions", does this include Nokia stuff too, and wireless internet sharing?
Thanks in advance, and thanks for sharing your experience!

sorry, for 3 remove the chip from your provider ATT, Verizon or whatever. the idea is not have calls or data receive in the process.
for 4. you have many languages to select. I selected only Spanish and English 'cause I only use these languages.
what do you mean about nokia stuff??? I only have nokia drive installed and it works... I can't test internet sharing 'cause I can't enable this option; do you know how to enable it? Thanks in advance!
OK, I didn't try to select only one or two language packs, but I remember there's somebody said, you have to select all the language packs that your phone originally have, and I checked, ATT Titan II needs all language packs.

yes, i read these too. That because i don't want to do the upgrade, but i could contact a friend that have this pone too, and he do the upgrade and tell me how to do it right. So i update following the steps i mentioned some post ago and it Works fine. and i only select the 2 languages that i use.
I can't test the internet sharing because i don't know how, 'cause it's blocked in my phone.

By "Nokia stuff", I meant their gps navigation, their radio, and abunch of other cool preloaded apps, someone released a ROM like this for the HTC Titan 1, plus it unlocked internet sharing/tethering. Wish we had it on our phone, lol.

Look on the bright side, at least you have LTE; the Titan I's only have at best HSPA+ but there's a catch to that too...AT&T thought it was in all our best interests to throttle our devices back so at best we might obtain 4 megs down but real world; not much greater than 1.5. Really nice of them to not tell us there throttled. I'm not aware there is a way to HSPL your devices and I'm not aware there are any ways to do it on any of the future Windows Phone 8 devices except if you happen to get your hands on a developer edition with the bootloader unlocked. I really like the Windows Phone platform but I'm fet up with the nonsense we have to go through to enjoy the full potential of them and for what reason they're as locked down as they are, I simply don't know the rationale behind it.
Hey all, looking into buying my wife a Lumia. She's Finnish, and therefore prefers Nokia phones, however, the last time she went to buy a Nokia, of the ones available at the time, none in the US had Finnish as a selectable language. She called Nokia Finland directly on this, and pretty much cursed them up a storm for half an hour about how a Finn, living in the US, can't get Finnish, on a phone made by a Finnish company. She was pretty pissed.
So, she got the iPhone, because it had Finnish as an option. It's not that she doesn't speak and understand English, she just wants her phone in her native language. That was 5 years ago.
Well, it's about time to upgrade again, and while we were looking at the iPhone again, I'm also looking at the Lumia's. Only problem is, I cannot find, anywhere, a list of the languages available in the standard AT&T US Firmwares. It's not published anywhere that I can find.
I have read that the selection is 'limited' and that Rogers has 'all of them, including polish', but that doesn't tell me which ones are in either.
Mainly, I would like to know if Finnish is available in the AT&T US Firmware, and if not, is it available in the Rogers? And how complicated is reflashing it from the former, to the latter. Never owned a windows phone before, but I'm not a stranger to jailbreaking iPhones or rooting/unlocking/etc Androids. Just haven't had hands on a windows phone yet.
If anyone has just a plain list of all the Languages available in the different firmwares, I think that would work out best for everyone. Barring that, if you have one of these phones, can you just post what languages are available in your version? Thanks
Just checked my ATT 920 and Finnish isn't listed. Sorry. Perhaps a call to Nokia to see if there is a language pack.

I see Suomi listed, on the Rogers Lumia 920, I believe that is Finnish. I believe the development area has flashing instructions.

Thanks for the feedback Demon Fox. ( you're talking about att version right?)
I had the 900 and I sold it for that reason, No Arabic Keyboard input even after the so called 7.8 update( the UI not important for me ). Many people were talking about language packs but no actual "tutorial" or even a hint on how to extract or merge the language packs with a current WP OS.

Would it be just easy as flashing USA or Europe firmware to get rid of the Chinese region??? I think that’s what you would need to do. Just make sure you get it confirmed from someone or speak to manufacture of the phone ring them up or email them!
