[Q] Titan 2 Stock/Generic ROM- Help Please. - HTC Titan

After reading up on the Titan2 and experiencing the difficulty to get MMS working on a non at&t sim-card, I have come to the conclusion that it cannot be done, Is there a way to flash a stock unbranded ROM for the Titan2 to enable the connection set-up to work? Does a stock ROM even exist? Or could a Titan ROM work on the Titan2? I don't need 4G or LTE, Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks in advance.

Received a reply from HTC UK today, Not good news, Looks like I will be getting rid of the Titan2, Damn shame as I preferred it to the Titan
Dear Andy,
Thank you for your email regarding your HTC Titan II.
My name is David and I am a Technical Support Agent for the HTC Written Team.
I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing some difficulties setting up your MMS settings for the O2 network on your phone.
I understand that this phone was originally branded to the been branded to the At&T network. I believe the reason you are unable to change the MMS settings on your phone is because your phone was originally branded to the At&T network. Phones that are branded (locked) to specific networks usually have their operating system (Windows) slightly customised to that particular network. This would include the MMS settings as well. Because the phone is unlocked, you will be able to use any other other SIM card to make calls and send SMS messages. However, unlocking the phone does not neccessarily override the pre-installed MMS settings.
In that case Andy, it may not be possible to change the MMS settings on this phone.
Please contact HTC US for further support on this issue as HTC UK does not support this phone.
I do apologise for the inconvenience this may be causing you.
To let me know I have successfully answered your query, please follow the link below to close your enquiry, you will have the opportunity to leave feedback about your experience contacting me today.

My Carrier is??? Help me please

Hi, excuse me my english, i am from Venezuela, i can flash my Titan with Titan Reloaded 1.42b2 it works fine , but i can't use Evdo data service, i can connect but i can't open a web or use MSN, before i tested others Roms and i can use my service data anyone know about this:
"Remember to add your Carrier CAB after loading!! (well if you have data service anyways)
Link to dcd1182 Carriers cab's.. Thanks dcd..
DCD Carriers CABs"
I try with Verizon and sprint cab, but only happens the same, i check my epsc configuration with another phone and my dates are ok, any suggestion??
Who do you pay for your service?
I Can Pay with cards , the company name is Movilnet
Anyone can help me? or any idea? i really need use the EVDO service again, ther are other bugs in this ROMS i can't send files by bluethoot and Beam Neither.
Well, unfortunately, I do not have a good answer for you. DCD has never (as far as I can read through the forums) gotten his hands on a ROM from Movilnet. Since he hasn't gotten a ROM from them, he has not had a way of making a carrier cab for them. The only chance you have now is to hope and pray someone here has a Movilnet carrier cab. If they do not, you might have to return to the place you bought the phone and have them flash it back to the prebuilt carrier ROM. Then you will be able to extract the needed information for the carrier before overwriting it with a custom ROM.
Good luck!

[Q] Lost MMS and group texting

So I upgraded from the Titan to the Titan 2. Both are unlocked on Telus for use here in Toronto.
On the Titan 2 trying to run the HTC Connection app fails. On my original Titan it configures fine. On my Titan 2 MMS fails and group texting. On my original Titan it works fine.
I feel that essentially they are the same phone so it should work on both unless there are hardware changes be. I took out my sim card to test these functions and it just doesn't make sense. And why would the Titan 2 not recognise my carrier while the original Titan would?
APP "connection setup" does not work on Titan II
APP "connection setup" can run well on a Titan to fix MMS problem, but it does not work on Titan II. It shows Carrier does not exist in database. Do anyone know how to fix it? Or we can only wait for HTC update this APP?
BTW, I unlocked my phone using code to use a non ATT sim.

Glad to know it's not just my phone only having this issue. I'm wondering if we should call HTC on this one?
Is there any way to manually configure the APN setting? I will be getting a Titan 2 for use in UK and would love to know how to get around this.
Yes you can manually configure the APN but those settings are very limited in comparison to Android phones. There is no seperate settings for data and MMS.
Btw, I called HTC support. They are unaware of the issue. They found it strange and were unable to help me. I asked for the protocol to escalate the issue to ensure HTC is made aware of it and he asked me to send an email through support so I have. I guess we'll see what happens.

WP7 sets your settings APN DATA/MMS on the first start (after a factory reset). If you have a known common carrier then the settings are loaded automatically, but if you had AT&T and then unlocked and simply swapped sims (obviously everybody does) the titan or for that matter any wp7 phone does not change the MMS settings.
"Automatic Data Configuration" is run on the first-run then disabled until the next factory reset.

[Q] Unlocked (Rogers Branding) Nokia 920 won't access data

Hello,
I was recommended by the internet to ask you guys for help. I recently bought a Nokia 920 unlocked online. However, it has Rogers branding. I inserted my Telus sim and was able to make phone calls and send text messages. I noticed that there were some problems with data connectivity, but figured it was just because the Telus network sucks. I then promptly moved to Switzerland for the summer.
I've now got an Orange Prepaid sim and it's the same thing - can send texts and make phone calls, but no data. When I try to open IE, it brings me to a website that says my phone is not properly configured for Internet and MMS. I downloaded the Nokia Access Point app and followed the instructions on this page:
Google: Orange Network Nokia 920 manually configure internet
But still nothing.
Please help, I'm a complete noob and don't know what to do next. I really don't want to be stuck with a $500 dumbphone. :crying:
Thank you,
Mary

You need to manually enter the APN for Orange. Where I live the local Orange mobile operator has the APN: "internet".

[Q] unlocked att htc m8 cannot send/receive mms

I sim unlocked my htc m8 and am now using a tmobile sim card. 4G network, calls, sms everything works just fine. However, i am not able to send/receive mms. I called t-mobile for help, and they told me to change my apn setting, which i did. And that only fixed my problem with 4g data(i initially had problem with both 4g data and mms) No matter what i try for apn setting, MMS won't send.
My current apn setting is: apn:fast.t-mobile.com
mmsc: mms,msg,eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
mms protocal: wap2.0
mcc:310
ncm:260
apn type: default,supl,admin,dun,mms
everything else is not set. I really don't understand why would mms not work if both 4g data and individual sms works.
Anyone have an idea?
Did you figure out how to fix the mms yet?

I have had the same issue. 4gLTE works just fine. I have ATT visual voicemail working. I just cant seem to get over the MMS issue.
I switched the hangouts today and that works just fine for sending and recieving MMS. What's weird is it also records what is being sent and recived into my HTC Messages app as well. However, when I disable hangouts and try to send MMS direct from HTC messages, no luck?

Don't know if you got this but you need http:// in front of the mmsc field I think.
For AT&T HTC M8 Unlocked "T-Mobile User's" Only!
For those that might not have figured it out yet: Backup your current telephony.db file and Replace it.. Unzip and Copy the file attached to: data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases with ES File Manager (Any Root Browser Should Work) then Reboot and wait till you get Data, make sure you can browse the interweb and test sending a photo to yourself!
This was achieved on my Stock Rooted AT&T Unlocked HTC M8 on T-Mobile!
Backing up stuff is always Good! Recovery and a Good Root File Manager are your friends!

Try installing SQLite Editor, Navigate and find that same file in the directory I lead you to in my first post, click on the file, there you should see a bunch of APNs/Setting.. Delete them All! They might have to be deleted one by one.. Go back into your APN Settings on your phone and add the T-Mobile APNs and you should be good to go after a reboot! I don't have the M8 anymore but, I'll try helping as much as possible!
I have Tmobile service also, does LTE work on the ATT M8 with tmobile sim?
Does it have all the bands to run without any problems?

Yes, it gets LTE once you setup the APNs correctly!

Are you rooted? Because you need to be to view or modify those files.
Also, in ES File Manager settings, you need to toggle "Root Explorer" to ON. Although, even with it OFF I believe you should still be able to view the files (just can't modify them). So I think your main problem is no root.
Well, I finally fixed my problem with not being able to send or receive MMS.
I have a AT&T M8 that recently switched over to T-Mobile. I decided to root, s-off, and changed over the developer edition ROM. I was even able to get OTA update after it was done.
I am ecstatic and exhausted after the process but seeing that I was able to get ride of that annoy AT&T boot up music was all worth it. :good::victory:
Now my follow up question is this. I now have a rooted phone with S-off. Should I worry more about security in the future? I typically only download from the Play store but I believe that there are a lot of junk out there as well. Should I lock my bootloader since I won't be doing anything like this the future?
All feedbacks are appreciated.
Please check your inbox. Thanks.

Extremely Curious to know how you solved the problem!
Hi,
I have an unlocked ATT M8 as you do. I'm in canada trying to get the darn mms working on the rogers canada network. No luck. Ive pondered de branding my phone and loading a WWE version on the cell, but I dont entirely know what I'm doing with that. Would you mind providing some direction, even if pointing me to relevant online posts that you used to learn how to do it correctly?
Appreciate any support.
Cole
PS. CONGRATS on getting mms running!

That person stated how they solved it. He flashed the Dev Ed ROM, which I believe natively supports both the AT&T and T-Mobile network. But this won't help you (Rogers).
Did you try the proper Rogers APN and still having MMS issues?

Thanks for the response. I have tried all the rogers apn settings, had a friend with an actual rogers m8 screen shot the settings with no success. Attempted adding mms specific apn settings as recommended by tier 2 rogers support. Again, no luck.
At this point I believe my only options are to try CM or see if there is a ruu toolkit that will work for rogers. To be honest, aside from one click root, im out of my depth.

I'd still keep trying with the APNs. Make sure with the carrier which APN is associated with your account, as there may be several. AT&T for instance has some 3 or 4 different APNs.
Rogers doesn't have any RUUs for this phone, as far as I am aware I don't see how CM will help, unless the ROM specifically supports Rogers and will have the proper Rogers APN pre-configured (or other things like build.prop). You may have better luck trying to find the stock Rogers ROM, or have another member here upload it for you.

[Q] Unknown Sim Error with UK Card?

Hi all, I landed in Heathrow for vacation a couple days ago and immediately bought a local sim (EE 500 mins, unl text, and 2gb data). I swapped it out while on the tube and I got and unknown sim icon in the status bar. Weirdly, it appears I can send and receive texts (I was getting messages from EE) but I cannot use data. Furthermore, when I took the Eurostar to Paris yesterday, I got a text from EE welcoming me to France, informing me of roaming charges etc so it is clearly communicating with their servers.
I'll be heading back to London on Tuesday, and I'd like to have data then.
I am rooted, but still running stock ROM.
Is this a Verizon, LG, EE problem? Or is it a combination?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!
Probably some APN issue but I wouldn't know what exactly you need to do to fix it. Anytime you run a phone that's set up for one carrier on a different one you usually have to at the minimum change APN settings to have full functionality.
Maybe where you got the SIM from can give you the correct APN settings. Make sure and back up your existing APNs first.
Enjoy your vacation. Safe travels!
Sent from my VK810 4G
Thanks for the reply! I created the appropriate APN with info from their website but still no dice :/
Ur going to have issue the icon will remain as long as u are you using a non verizon sim as far as data normal issue have been not being able to recieve mms. Make sure data is enabled then recheck your apn make sure its fpr smartphones then if all else fails it possible your carrier may not be able to connect to data via verizon hardware
I am getting the same problem in the UK - see the OP - same 'unknown SIM' icon in the top bar. I have voice & text, but no data.
Two different carriers in the UK give me the same problem - 02 and EE - so it's not unique to one carrier. If anyone has further info I'd appreciate it - otherwise I'm down to put this phone aside & buy a new one as I'm living the the UK for a year or longer.
Has anyone been able to attach a Verizon LG G3 to a UK providers data? If so, how? LMK please!
Thx in advance!
