Hey everyone, sorry if this has cropped up previously but I've searched to no avail and no one from Microsoft has an answer either.
I've got a new HTC Titan sitting here, completely unused. I won it at the Windows Phone Inner Circle event in Denver weeks before the device's US launch, but I still haven't switched over. This is because the device is a UK phone. The phone does not appear to have any US settings at all, is unlocked, and even comes with a UK plug instead of a US one. Presumably, this is because I won the device before the US version was ready for release.
The issue is that even when I switch my region settings over to "English (US)", nothing actually changes on the phone when it restarts...everything is still English (UK). For example, "synchronising", "favourites", "colour", etc. At first I thought that this wasn't a big deal, but it might be if other region settings persist. So I have three related questions that I'd love to find out:
If/when a custom bootloader is released for the Titan, can I use it to flash a US ROM to my device?
I have to switch carriers to AT&T in order to fully use the Titan (hence my hesitation), but will bringing the phone to AT&T and letting them activate it have a chance of loading US settings onto the phone? I know that will load AT&T app marketplace options, which is why I was curious.
Most importantly, even if none of this can possibly change, will I at all be restricted by UK region restrictions for Zune, Marketplace, etc.? I have a US-based Zune and WLID account, but this is my main concern because of the phone's region.
If anyone can share some insights on this, I'd really appreciate it.

1. US ROM must be considered. Because the AT&T version Does use the different Chips for different Radio version. It might get the phone bricked. The Goldcard tecnique is not available on Titan, so Official AT&T Rom to flash on the phone is nearly impossible. It need to be done by 3rd party.
2. No. Your Live ID will determine which content you can access. Don't ask why people at Asia can still submit and buys apps that are for US only.
3. The region of the phone could be changed, but not the agent inside. So, don't be surprise that you have the English voice comeout from Tellme and Turn-by-Turn navigation from Bing maps doesn't work at US. You can change, the Region Format, System Locale and Browser &Search Language to English (United States) but it can't change the fact, that this phone is built for Europe user. I will ask HTC if they can bring the custom language pack (if possible) to Windows Phone. I am still talking to HTC Tech Support about this.
I contacted HTC Support several times and they didn't give me any solution (apart from doing a deadly mistake of telling me to search the Android Market for an application :S)!!
I'm still hoping we find a different ROM to flash. Is there an Australian version maybe floating around? I'm dying to use voice navigation and Tellme (which doesn't understand anything when set to English UK).
Thanks for the replies...starting to think maybe I should just sell the thing and use the money to buy a US Titan - especially due to the points about navigation and TellMe. Of course, I'd probably want to sell it to someone in the UK so no one else has region problems. Maybe I'll start looking into that.
In the meantime, if any encouraging news pops up about this, let me know

I know many people having problem in flashing the unit into different language.
If we couldn't do it due to CID lock.
Why not just swap our phone directly.
I base in West London. If anyone want to swap my AMEO in English version with his/her Chinese version. Please let me know.
My device is brand new from T-mobile and bound to T-mobile network currently. Of course, you can unlock it later on.
How you will flash it after exhange?
DUH!
you dont need to.
I really hope that was a joke.

It sounds to me like the power button is faulty. I would exchange it with T-mobile - all you need is the box and to be able to show them the fault and they will swap it for you in any T-mobile store which has stock (which isn't many).
Alright guys I tried to search for this but basically I couldnt find the answer,
Anyway I might be buying an orange uk HTC mozart from *bay, and then I'll be getting it unlocked via IMEI code also from *bay.
My question is how will I go about de-branding it i.e. taking everything "orange" away from it and also how will I make sure the phone is up to date i.e. which rom will i have to flash?
Sorry for the noob-ness its just I'm coming from android so all this wp7 malarky is new to me!
Thanks!!
try to read some threads before posting new ones..I am sure you will answer all your questions that way.
Sorry to say I cant find anything that answers my question would appreciate if you could help me out.
I'm confused as to whether the mozart will ge the NoDo update on a non-orange carrier?
Thanks
To be honest you won't see much orange stuff on it! You can uninstall all the programs and after that its just the start up screen (which you'll rarely see as who turns off their phone) and I think one of the colours is called orange uk! But the above guy is right there are millions of posts on here about debranding your phone, I did it and went back to the original rom as the european rom doesnt seem to have english uk, only english american...
Thanks for the tips, but im unsure as to what you mean by the original rom?
Basically i dont know what version it will be until it arrives, but i want to make sure I can unlock it, debrand it and keep it up to date whilst being on t-mobile (which happen to share a 2G network with orange lol)
my advice is: get your hands to the phone first, buy an unlock code through some of the several sites providing it if the phone is locked to orange or another network. then pop your sim in, enter the unlock code you purchased and uninstall any orange apps if there are any installed on the phone.. plug your phone to zune and update it to pre-nodo, no-do depends on what version currently is. remember that you have to un-plug and plug again your phone to the pc for each update.. hope that helped..
I did the same thing, bought a Mozart from Ebay, Unlocked by buying a code from the internet and then debranded the phone by downgrading it and letting it update through Zune.
Still looking at getting one of these, but just reading issues about responsiveness on the latest roms i.e. screen response etc.
Is it an issue i should worry about?
BUMP
My mozart is coming tomorrow on Orange UK, and I will need to use it on t-mobile UK.
Please, please oh pretty please will someone help me unlock and debrand it?
Thanks
I bought a Mozart locked to Orange last week to use with an O2 sim card. All you need to do is get an unlock code using the IMEI no. (I used Unlocking.com, cost about £15), then get your phone on a wifi network and dwnload the HTC settings app from Marketplace, which will automatically configure your phone for web/MMS/texts etc. Then just delete the Orange apps by long pressing on them in the app list and assign the correct voicemail number.
Job done! Other than an Orange logo on start up, you won't know any different.
Got my mozart Yay!
HOWEVER
What the hell is with the banding?!?!?! Whenever the screen is any other color than black, there's banding!?!?
Banding? Oh dear - I think you might have a duff screen
No I think this is the issue
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1028496.html
Oh, right. Turns out I have that too, but hadn't noticed until now! Supposedly it'll be fixed in Mango, and it's no big deal so I can wait until then.
I got my S2 a few weeks ago and I love it... brilliant phone... This question however has nothing to do with my S2, it's about an old Blackberry 8310 that I have lying around here... It still works fine... I got it in Canada on 'Rogers'. However I was only in Canada for work and I live in South Africa, where the three major Carriers are Vodacom(owned by Vodafone), MTN and Cell C. I have tried a SIM from all three carriers and their not working, unsurprisingly... I would like to debrand the Blackberry, is this possible? I know this is a Android forum and all but this is the only place I can think of where I might get a good answer...
Is it possible to take off the software loaded by Rogers and then put the original unbranded software on the phone, like we do with our Android devices... I've no use for the phone now but if I can get it working at all I'd like to...
I'm not so sure many people here have ever owned a BlackBerry., but have you tried to take your phone to a shop where they can unlock it? Usually de-branding your phone will not unlock it.
Also, this thread is bound to be moved or locked as it is not SGS2 related. You will have better luck in a BlackBerry specific forum (use google).
i really dun understand how can this page be a good place to get the answer for you. imagine i go to iphone forum or whatever and ask them questions about android. make any sense? -_-"
even if software does help, i really dun think any of the dev here will make that specific software to fix your issues since writing a software is not really just "writing it". and you should know s2 and blackberry are totally 2 different thing.
here is my solution for you:
- go to any blackberry service center and talk to them about your issue (voila, easy!)
- or you can google the solution (suggest by xethor)
- or you can just use your s2! (even sounds better)
- or just put it back on your shelf (why bother about blackberry when u got the best device ever??? )
- last but not least, just sell it and buy another android phone! (android rules!)
cheers!
Crackberry is where you need to be at, check their forums.
I had a berry before and used to load up custom firmware and it worked. But not sure on debranding them though as I had a sim free.

Hello everyone,
I've been an android user for a year and a half now, but after getting a grip of a WP device I am surely making the switch, and the Titan has caught my eyes from the first sight!
I was wondering if anyone can give me some advice regarding where to get the phone from and what version should I get?
I live in the Middle-East and the phone is currently unavailable here but I want to get it from the internet, there are many versions of the Titan and I am not quite sure which one should I buy!
Here are the options I got and I don't know which one I should go with:
1- The AT&T version: I've read that the AT&T version had some problems regarding voice quality but its the cheapest among them all (around 500$ and I need to unlock it of course).
2- The international version -don't know what's it called really- factory unlocked on amazon for 675$.
3- The UK version on ebay for 600$, factory unlocked.
Considering the fact that I am kinda a noob regarding these stuff, I would like to hear your suggestions, what difference is there between all these three and what should I get for someone living on the other side of the world, also would like to know what the UK version differs from the others.
and is there a chance that the phone won't work with my carrier, what info should I ask them for and check before buying the device ?
thanks a lot for your time, any help is much appreciated
ATT is slow to release updates so I would recommend an international unlocked. You are gonna love the big screen and all the iPhones will be jealous saying it's too big. That's when I set my titan on top of theirs and say Iphone? I see no stinkin iPhone

I see, so that is a disadvantage for the AT&T version.
Umm, ok what about the UK version, what's wrong with it more like what is the difference between it and the international one?

The AT&T one will *never* tether on any network other than AT&T. Not sure about the UK one.
You might want to investigate whether the int'l unlocked one can.
If it were me I'd get the int'l unlocked one, *unless* I specifically needed a UMTS band that that one does not offer.

since you own the UK version, may I ask you what differ is there between it and the international version ? (the UK version is cheaper by 75$) but I don't know if it'll work as I live in the middle-east and I don't know what to ask my carrier for to know?
thanks
I am not entirely sure about international version. But I think it probably not much difference hardware wise for sure. Since certain features of OS are limited to certain countries ir might be the case. E.g. Bing features, tell me services etc. It might be helpful if I say that even in UK version the radio is set to International.

Do a search though. In some countries Market won't have certain apps. The market ideally should work in all countries but some have lesser apps than others e.g. we don't have the Netflix app in the UK. Check out what Market looks like for your specific country. Unlikely you will have all the apps. It's more to do with MS sorting out the legalities etc for each country gradually..
iFan has their own bias, so i won't talk about it here.
AT&T Version always slow in the Update since AT&T have to test it and do whatever they want to the update before it can be published.
I have the X310e version from UK, unlocked and totally happy with it.
And with the international version, you have the "HTC" agent color, which is removed on the AT&T Titan.

HTC agent colour is also present in the UK version. So does this mean only the ATT doesn't have it? or is UK and international one the same thing?
The Apps in the market will be dependent on the Country given in your Live-Account. This can't be changed afterwards, so if you use an US-Account and someday Microsoft extends their Market to your country you're either stuck with the US Account (don't know if it will accept a Non-US-Creditcard - it doesn't accept european cards for US-Accounts as far as I remember) or you lose the Apps which are bound onto your US-Account and create a new one.
So those things will most likely have to be sorted out firt. The HTC-Titan as far as I know supports the same 3G Bands in all it's variants which makes it usable on pretty much any UMTS Network worldwide with only a few exceptions. The exact supported bands can be seen on the HTC Titans product page on htc.com
The UK version as far as I know is hardwarewise exactly the same as the international one, only difference might be in what UI languages are available (all keyboard languages are present since the Mango Update anyway although Middle-Eastern-Language support is currently expected to arrive with the Tango-Update - meaning it's not available yet).
Hope this helps and provides you with a rough idea of what troubles can arise.

The USA version is 850/1900/2100.
The UK version is 850/900/2100. The international version is probably the same as that one, but not sure.
The OP probably only needs 2100, so any of them will probably be just fine.
Now if we could only get a variant with AWS...

AT&T has a choice what to do with the ROM for their Phone. and they choose to remove the Agent Color HTC. I have heard it from multiple sources.

okay , let's say I get the UK unlocked version and use it in my country "Jordan" , I don't know where I read it , but as it seems every phone is region locked , and if I get a UK phone for instance I won't be able to get an update to my language for example (which is Arabic) .. is that correct ?
I don't know, its safer to get the international version even tho it's a 100 bucks more expensive , but I thought about asking you guys cause I don't know a lot about these stuff.
Thanks

I have read a lot of threads while searching for a way to fully unlock my Titan II as a lot of people are trying to use their unlocked phones on other carriers. I too am one of those people and would like to officially start a bounty thread for the Titan II.
I know that DFT was the one who created it for the legendary HD2 which I am a proud owner of.
I would like to post a $50 bounty via paypal to the one who cracks the Titan II and adds the database for the HTC Connection Setup. I don't know if it can be ported over from the HD2, but it doesn't seem like it wouldn't be possible. Either that or any other way to unlock the apn settings for mms provisioning.
Please join me in my quest to fully unlocking this AMAZING device and proving that we don't need to be tied down by the chains of tyranny due to oversights by manufacturers, providers and software manufactures because WE THE PEOPLE are capable of standing on our own,
Who's With ME????
Thanks for getting the ball rolling. Some reason I feel like there are a good amount of people out there with HTC titan 2's (myself included), but there's no dev support for it really.
Many have said that it should be quite easy since other than the camera and addition of LTE, it's essentially very similar. But who knows, I'm not a developer,

I understand your frustration; I really, really do but think about this; name me one Windows Phone that has followed the HTC Titan (Eternity) that has been successfully HSPL'd? Answer - None! There will never be another device manufactured like the HD2 and I fail to see the logic behind locking these devices down so tight there is no joy in owning a device which you're at the mercy of the WP Marketplace. All that said, development is dead for Windows Phone 7.x and like it or not while Windows Phone 8.x isn't perfect it is slowly grabbing traction with market share now at 5.6% and as of April has risen faster than Android. I have waffled back and forth as to try and sell my HSPL'd Titans while I can still get some value out of them or wait it out until Windows Phone 9 is released or abandon Windows Phone altogether. I bought my wife the HTC One (M7) and I guess I got lucky because it is one sweet piece of hardware and I bought the developer's edition and to help my wife learn the device I loaded Launcher 8 to give her the same start menu she was familiar with on the Titan. For the moment I'm eyeballing the Lumia 925 if it in fact pans out it's pentaband.
Fully support this bounty, but you're a little too late. It's all about wp8 now. No development is going to be done on a past device os. MMS is solved by the app SwapChat. No one picture texts.. just SC's

I'm not familiar with that app but there is an alternative now for AT&T compatible radios, but you will need Nokia's Network Setup to make the manual edits. We had a solution in the past but discovered using Consumer Cellular gave us MMS but did not give us the ability to use cellular data completely unrestricted. You can uninstall HTC Connection Setup if you opt this route. Carortruck, it is doubtful there will be any further development of the Windows Phone 7.x platform with the exception of an update to 7.9. It is unclear what this update will entail though many who have responded to Microsoft asking for Bluetooth and Skype to run in background. There are quite a number of 3rd party apps that will run APIs of branded apps, my personal favorites are MetroTalk and MetroRadio and of course, Skype.

I have tried to find a way to install nokia's connection setup but am unable to figure out how to spoof the marketplace to let me download it. On my hd2, I also used consumer cellular and know that trick, but the htc connection setup on the titan 2 only has at&t in the database. I was thinking of developer unlock to sideload a registry editor or load an xml file that would have the settings in it, but it seems like there is an easier way.
I have switched back to my gs2 even though I LOVE the way the windows phone feels. It's so stable and smooth, but I am at a crossroads here. I can live without tethering and want not.
As far as api's, I use graffiti radio for my Pandora. I really just want my mms unlocked.

I want you to open the APN settings inside your settings...and simply add "att.mvno" on the APN line....everything else is blank! Continue to use Consumer Cellular. The downside is these settings will disable mobile data to Bing and Map Search. Registry Editor won't help you here. Being that you have the Titan II it is not possible to install the Nokia Network Setup app which the HTC Connection Setup is not required but HTCCS will work as long as you configure your settings properly.

I want you to open the APN settings inside your settings...and simply add "att.mvno" on the APN line....everything else is blank! Continue to use Consumer Cellular. The downside is these settings will disable mobile data to Bing and Map Search. Registry Editor won't help you here.

That's just the problem....there are no other carriers in the database other than at&t! I know consumer cellular works but as stated, it's not in the HTC Connection Setup database
Hey did anything ever end up happening with this project?

The HTC Titan I (Eternity - PI39100) was the last of any of the Windows Phone 7.x devices to be developer-interop unlocked and even during their development the bootloaders changed making near the end of production many of these devices unable to be unlocked other than subsidy (carrier) unlocked. I'm torn between staying with WP8 and buying the Lumia 1520 or going over to the dark side and buying the HTC One M7 or M8 so I remain with my devices for the time being realizing they're likely to become worthless before I once and for all sell them. I continue to own a HD2 that I stuck a 64 gig card in running NativeSD; we'll never see another device like that one, what a shame.
