Is there a HSPL for the AT&T Titan yet? Goldcard didn't work Trying to flash stock rom worked, but didn't downgrade SPL So, I diffinetly need HSPL for a branded AT&T Titan. Thanks
Take a look over here at forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1744253. You'll have some reading to do.
If you tried the SPL / HSPL on your AT&T Titan first (before debranding) then you are stuck without a fix (as of yet).
I was in the same boat and my Titan had a memory issue and caller's sound quality was horrible, so I got a warranty exchange from AT&T. When my new one arrived, I de-branded it first with the EUR ROM, then flashed SPL / HSPL and now I absolutely LOVE my Titan (prior, I HATED it). Now (after 6 replacements & no AT&T locks) I have a custom ROM and everything is unlocked and no caller sound quality / memory problems.
Sucks for me then...

Thanks for the info. I guess I will have to wait til developers come up with something for AT&T Titan. I wised the instructions included info for SPL/HSPL on AT&T Titan, Oh well.
Well they didn't know it was going to he different. In all my HtC devices, this is the first that has been different and the most complicated I must say.

Hello, if you actually checked the bottom of the guide I've written for this, it provides instructions on how to apply HSPL for your Titan, assuming you did all the correct steps on debranding it first
V. HSPL
i. Once confirming you have 2.5.xxxx.xx on your SPL screen, you will now proceed to the final part: enabling HSPL. What you will need to do is navigate once more into "DFT_HSPL_WP7SG1" (the .rar file you downloaded from DFT), and go here: >DFT_HSPL_WP7SG1>2_HSPL>DFT_HSPL_WP7SG1_INSTALL.ex e. Open the executable and properly read the instructions.
ii. Enter SPL once more on your phone and plug it into your computer, making sure that it says "usb" in black letters towards the bottom portion of the screen.
iii. Click next on the program and read careful about what requirements you will need on the computer. Typically, it should all be there, but it never hurts to make sure.
iv. Take a deep breath and click next. It will attempt to connect to the phone. If it succeeds, continue reading the instructions the program will display. If it does not work, recheck your wire connection and that you have spl 2.5.xxxx.xx on your device, and that it is in SPL mode.
v. Make sure you select the rom version that you have (it should be the only selection there, but just make sure it is before continuing). Select next once you've made your selection.
vi. It will install HSPL. Once completed, the phone may reboot itself back into SPL mode. If it has succeeded, underneath where it shows your rom version, it will either have "DFT" or "CotullaH" written there. Mine says "CotullaH".

I know exactly where he is stuck because he is using USA AT&T Titan. The HSPL instructions doesn't warn USA AT&T Titans owners of the issue (AND IT SHOULD). So, if you following the procedure that every custom ROM points to exactly (like I did and a lot of other people did) you will be stuck on 2.5 SPL with no way out.
I haven't seen a warning to USA AT&T Titans anywhere that should say to de-brand your Titan first before attempting the HSPL or you'll be stuck.
Your outline will not help this person where he is stuck. Cotulla is working on it (I do believe).
There are a few warnings on the developer forum that AT&T branded phones must first be debranded before the phone can flashed with other roms
Ok, if you say so.

Not totally. You can still update the OS thru cab loader method to Tango and I assume soon after the 7.8 is released you'll be able to do the same. The only thing is you are stuck with crappy stock AT&T ROM. I say crappy because I absolutely hated my phone until I got custom ROM on it. Can you do a warranty exchange with AT&T?
Easy to follow thread for hspl
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684912
If you have the image (or .nbh file) and you dont have it names ETERIMG.nbh it will not flash
here's why, The HTC OEM's names the device eternity. For the USB mode to be able to recognice the correct rom to flash it has to fit the model of phone you have. ETER is the first 4 letters to its OEM name. Add IMG and you got yourself the correct name for flashing roms to your device.

I'm not sure if I have a warranty... I don't think I purchased it. Trying to understand, there's no fix to my situation as of right NOW... But somehow, can developers come up with a fix you think? Or, no matter what, I'm stuck with the stocked ATT Rom?

Cotulla is working on it (I do believe). I stopped reading the thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684912) when I got my new device in and de-branded it first (there by preventing the situation that you are in), however, where I left off in my following that thread was Cotulla asking for USA AT&T testers. I have followed the email notifications that I get from that thread, and nothing new that I've seen. On pages 25 - 28 you'll find that Cotulla is (or was) working on it.
So to answer your question, I tried everything when I was stuck on SPL 2.5 and nothing worked. You are stuck on AT&T stock ROM for now. Maybe throwing $$ at Cotulla would speed the process up?:fingers-crossed:
Hope this helps

Hi, I'm currently on a debranded ATT Titan HSPLed with custom rom. Previously I managed to downgrade my SPL from euro v4 back to stock Cingular rom v1.10 These are the steps I took to downgrade:
1. Flashed stock Cingular rom 1.10 using RUU. This brings my Titan from euro Tango rom to stock cingular rom. However the SPL version was stucked at v4
2. Out of desperation, I flashed the stock TEST Cingular rom 2.01 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1477189 again using RUU.
3. Please note that cingular rom 2.01 is a demo/test rom so its not functional.
4. RE-flashed stock Cingular rom 1.10. This time around it downgraded my SPL from v4 to the stock v1.10
Give this a try, and report back. If it works please before trying again to flash HSPL, debrand your titan to euro rom 2.05 using goldcard method
Goodluck.

Exactly what I've been saying. The only out right now, is to send it back to AT&T and trade for another one.

Hello there,
I had the same situation on my AT&T Titan for 2 weeks, thinking it was my Gold Card or SD, but I finally upgrade the HTC SPL to the official 2.6 from June update.
Then I reflash the Stock AT&T Rom, but the SPL remain at 2.6.
Then I quit for a while. Removed the battery for a couple of days, & tried the Debranding again using the IMG_Eternity_HTC_Europe_2.05.401.01_Radio_Signed_16.23.06.10_16.32.00.23_ETERNITY_RELEASE.nbh, renaming it to ETERIMG.nbh & Goldcard my phone onto this EU Rom.
Then the SPL was downgraded from 2.6 to the EU 2.5.
After that I proceeded to the DTF SPL2.5 & HSPL & voila, the custom Roms.
Hope it help.

My outline comes from the guide I made specifically for AT&T phones that need to do in order to safely debrand and install hspl.
So, if the person went to read the guide fully (where I mention several times that this process is required if they wish to install custom roms) then they can find that they'd be most likely be able to install HSPL after using my debranding method.
My AT&T Titan has HSPL applied and running a custom rom, and there's a picture guide provided in the post to show it.
However, I agree, I do not see any warnings that normally, you can't install HSPL on an AT&T HTC Titan all by itself without debranding. Honestly, there should be, because I can't count how many posts I've seen of people soft-bricking/bricking their devices.
EDIT: However, I guess I forgot to add, you cannot do anything after you applied the custom 2.5 SPL provided by DFT, IF you didn't debrand it prior. If you did debrand your phone, obviously you'll be fine. If you haven't though, then you'll be stuck along with everyone else and you'll need to get a new phone or wait for the fix.

Just got my 1st PPC Phone Device so please bear with me.
Looking to upgrade my SPV M3100 to the official HTC WM6 ROM and from reading here I have gathered that I need to do the following
1. Unlock the phone (SIM and CID) using the V3a unlock program
2. Install Hard SPL V7 bootloader
3 Install official WM6 Rom.
Is there anything else to bear in mind, hope I haven't missed anything
Thanks

Sounds good dude, One thing though - you don't have to unlock the CID/SIM unless you really want to - and unless you specifically need /want to I personally wouldn't perform that step.
Once HardSPL is on, you can flash any image using the modified RUU wrapper.
The only other things to bear in mind are really the obvious - Make sure you've backed up your odds n' sods and that you've read the upgrading FAQs in the wiki (I think you already have!) and have a quick skim through the Upgrade problems FAQs so you don't end up in a panic if something unexpected happens!
As far as I know you can't install any official '.exe' roms on a mobile running Hard SPL boot v7 although don't take my word for it. They also won't install I'm led to believe on any handset apart from the handset it was meant for.
Eg. Dopod Official rom .exe file will only install on the Dopod branded version of your phone.
I may be wrong but to install these official roms I thought an official rom had to be 're-wrapped' somehow.
I did exacty the same as you, and unlocking your phone is better for the fact that the sell on price will be more, plus you can also choose what provider you want to use it with yourself.
I have an Orange SPV M3100, which I bought on ebay to use with my 3 UK sim card, although I also went a step further and installed a non orange HTC branded housing.
BTW I'm running Schaps WM6 v4.31 it's EXCELLENT!

OK, the retail .exes are only programmed to recognise the official SPL versions (ie not hardspl).....thats why we must flash the nbh file using customRUU (which is coded to recognise hardspl).
The CID is responsible for identifying the brand of the device used, that way only HTC ROMs can be flashed onto a HTC CID device and the same for dopod/tomobile etc...
Hardspl essentially reports that the device has SuperCID so that way ANY ROM can be flashed to the device. Basically there isnt much need to CID unlock the device any more, back in the days before HardSPL this is what was normally done but olipro has pretty much tidied that up now
The unlocker is still recommended so you can use any SIM card however, just to SIM unlock it.
I managed to reflash the orange WM5 software no problems despite having HardSPL V7 installed no errors at all
Hello,
I have tried absolutely everything I know and that I have read. 3 different micro sd cards and 2 card readers. I actually bought a Kingston card and kingston card reader because I read kingston works fine for goldcard. I am desperate for fixing this.
There is no way I can get passed the loading screen after rebooting the phone in usb host mode. This are the steps I follow.
My phone at&t Titan pi39100
1. Create goldcard using a 2gb kingston.
1.1 Format the card in Fat32
1.2 Apply the goldcard tool
1.3 Copy the eterimg.nhb file that comes in the file provided by Cotulla for the SPL. (25 mb) ( I have actually tried inverting the order of steps 1.2 and 1.3 just for the sake of trying)
2. Prepare the Y cable as you can see in the pictures attached and reboot the phone and try to flash the SPL. Pressing power, vol - and camera. It gets in to the usb host mode and then a loading screen appears for a few seconds. Next thing I see is the spl screen reading
PI39100 MFG
SPL-2.5 160015.3 (137079)
eMMC SND 15188MB
TOUCH A1 (F:81, ID:1, V11, B:F8)
RADIO- 16.23.02.26_A
Now, I have noticed that if after this I try to flash the hspl I get the congratulations message, but my phone has not changed at all and I cannot flash any custom rom.
I read somewhere that the MFG may be a type of SPL that is impossible to flash, Can someone please confirm that I am not missing any step that that there is just no hope for my phone?
I have spent hours and hours reading and trying with this. I had the hope that some of the problems I have with the phone will be fixed with a Custom Rom, but if I can't flash it, I think I'm getting rid of the phone. I see lots of potential with the windows phone but my personal experience has been terrible
If someone can help I would be totally thankful.

the AT&T Branded HTC Titan is not compatible with DFT's HSPL at the moment. Any attempt will update your SPL from 1.10 to 2.5 which is locked to the phone. Only Rom that is flashable is the Stock AT&T image.
Last we heard from Cotulla among other HTC Titan users are testing possible issues/solution. So for the time being there is no ETA as usual and we AT&T Titan owners are stock with what we currently have.
So the best you can do is flash the stock rom and update to 8107 and patiently wait for any news from DFT/Cotulla
Hey yo...is this an ATT Titan? or an unbranded Titan? It looks like an ATT Titan...but anyway, if it is an ATT Titan, did you successfully debrand the device to the Euro Rom first?
I see Tachi has beaten me to the punch...
Yes...I think we need to tell Cotulla or DFT to put a warning to ATT users who want to try this on the direction page.
IT IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST FOR AT&T TITANS THAT IN ORDER TO INSTALL THE DFT SPL/HSPL - YOU MUST FIRST DEBRAND YOUR DEVICE TO A EURO ROM! - lol -- However, I hear that soon ATT users will be getting some updates along with the 2.5 SPL...so this may be only temporary.
Try to flash back to the original ATT rom and see if the SPL will return back to 1.10. If it doesn't...be patient...they are working on a fix for this.

I cant go back to 1.10 I am stuck at 2.5 no matter what I do. I tried to debrand to a Euro Rom with no success either, this is actually what had me confused cause I could read some post from AT&T users confirming that they had flashed the DFT HSPL.
Well I will keep waiting. I agree with you that a warning for AT&T usera at the beginning of the post would be helpful.
Thanks a lot to both of you. At least I can sleep tonight knowing I it's not that I am missing some evident step.
AT&T sucks their policy is an abuse of power (to the eyes of a European) There are lots of things I miss from the US and I am looking forward to go back, but my phone carrier is not one of them
P.S. I can't make backups of the phone with Zune either, it give me an error and neither the patch from htc or the solution from microsoft work. Just sharing it in case it helps someone.

Flash the European ROM so that your titan can be debranded. If you attempt to DFT unlock now you will be stuck like the rest of us

Somewhere in the forum, you must use GOLDCARD method to debrand- does this applies to me as well? I bought the AT&T Titan used- the previous owner somehow has internet-sharing option under the settings.

Yes you need a goldcard to debrand the titan. To get internet sharing under settings the previous owner must have updated to 8107 since thats how i got that under settings as well. So you can check under "About" and if you have anything other then 7720 under "OS Version" that means they used the cabsender.

If by unlock you mean full on Interop DFT unlock then yes if you have SPL 1.10
Those who have had success using DFT unlock had previously used a Goldcard to flash a European ROM. The issue we are having is that if you attemp to flash DFT unlock with SPL 1.10 to get stuck.
So if you want custom roms it will be smart to first flash a European ROM (2.05) using the goldcard. Once you are runnig the unbranded 8107 rom then start the DFT unlock process
No problem andres22,
haha, And yes, I would agree...as would most-all AT&T users too.

Somewhere in the forum, you must use GOLDCARD method to debrand- does this applies to me as well? I bought the AT&T Titan used- the previous owner somehow has internet-sharing option under the settings.

All the AT&T Titan I believe, had the Internet Sharing in the stock Rom. I got 2 Titan last November with 7720 ROM with it.
Just want to let everyone in this thread know;
I see claims that debranding must be done and guarantees success...
There has been no quantitative proof that debranding does anything. The success stories are the loudest, of course, and more and more threads keep popping up where users are saying "if only I debranded I wouldn't be stuck on SPL 2.05!"
Having met with success after debranding doesn't prove anything. I didn't debrand and I got my Titan to HSPL, admittedly it was a lengthy and unnerving process. I don't think that debranding does anything, I don't think it even logically CAN do anything, but what I do know is that the AT&T titan is not "not supported", as was claimed in one of the first posts. It was supported, but I'd say half (or less than half, again, loudest of the bunch) of users are having issues with at least two parts of the process, and DFT is looking into it.
I guess I should get off my ass and see if I can unstick the SPL on my second titan.

If your claim is true- this changes everything.
Care to elaborate how you obtained HSPL on your titan? I am sure at&t titan owners are eager to know
Well I have two AT&T Titans, because I thought I half bricked my first one with the f400 error. Then I f400'd the second Titan.
I went back to work on my original Titan, I got rid of the f400 error and I THINK I was stuck on SPL 2.05, HSPL wouldn't install even though it said success. Some combination of hard resetting and flashing the stock ROM brought me back to SPL 2.10, from there I flashed 2.05 again and then HSPL worked.
I have spent significantly less time trying to HSPL my second Titan, but for what it's worth I have been unable to duplicate whatever I did to my first Titan in my half hour of tinkering with it. Stuck on 2.05.
(I think I spent no less than 20 hours on my first Titan, though most of that was because goldcard wasn't working with all but one of my USB devices.
Stuck at spl screen with 2.05 spl

can you give the link for the stock rom with spl 2.10 and did you boot the phone successfully after flashing this stock rom???? Please help i am stuck on the spl screen indefinitely and nothing is working to get my phone back to working condition...
Hi Guys, I just installed what I believe the accompanying Tango firmware for Titan 1 (see attached screen capture). For those who have read my previous thread on debranding AT&T Titan to Euro 2.5 rom, this also confirm that you can easily reflash stock rom on DFT hspl'ed phone using RUU.
To revert to stock rom, I used the TitanAdvancedRUU to flash stock euro rom v2.5 then used the cab sender to update to spl 2.6. At this point, I connected my phone to zune hoping to get an update notice but no joy What I did after this was to force update from 8107 to 8773 using a cab sender (see post from AlvinPhilemon http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306415&page=106) The Tango update somehow triggered the firmware update from Zune.
The Zune update took roughly around 20-30mins, when it reboots the phone it was stuck on the htc boot page for about 10mins at this point I manually restarted the phone, and this time around it boot up and completed updated
I haven't noticed any changes that i can tell outright from previous version but i'm hoping that this might rectify stock rom known bugs eg. random reboot, wifi signal etc... on the second thought maybe the display font looks much better /cleaner maybe its just me
Hmmm I see on the first screen that after update you have 4.6 bootloader version (and SPL). I think now you can't install HSPL and I don't know whether you can do downgrade for install HSPL and customROMs.

With this new bootloader 4.6, I can confirm that this does not allow direct downgrade of SPL to install HSPL.:crying: ... even gold card method doesn't work. Initially I thought that I will be stuck with this stock rom which is not bad considering that I have an up to date rom and firmware installed... but not as good of having a fully unlocked phone Anyway, I tried re-installing stock Euro rom 2.05 first using RUU, but I got an invalid vendor, so proceeded using goldcard but I got "not allowed" on usb mode and kick back to spl screen. As last resort I tried the stock cingular rom 1.10 using RUU lo and behold it proceeded to complete the flash and I end up with bootloader 1.10 (see screen shot) :laugh: Following this I thought it will be an easy way back to installing DFT spl2.5 and hspl by the same route I've taken before that is to debrand to Euro rom 2.05 using gold card method but strangely it wouldn't allow me, I got "not allowed" thingee after entering to usb mode At this stage I was really worried that maybe my phone was stuffed from whatever thing that was installed from htc bootloader 4.6 or maybe my goldcard is not actually working. So tried flashing cingular rom using gold card method and it did work. I tried few times to flash euro roms (diffferent versions) but without success. I even tried updating to spl 2.6 then flash euro rom to debrand but again failed... so out of desperation I decided to flash DFT spl 2.5 and the most strange thing happened it was installed then I proceeded with hspl this also went through without a glitched and now I am back on CUSTOM ROM!!! whew... for those who are now running custom rom, especially for AT&T Titan phone version, please don't mess up with your phone and try what I just been through... not a nice experience at all, I think its dumb luck that I got back to custom rom:angel:
LOL
Thanks fro sharing m8 ...
New to the board - I hope my first question is not that stupid.
Got a new (European / German, unbranded) Titan yesterday.
Zune updated to 8773, automatically without any force today.
But it wouldn't get the HTC update (I was still on bootloader 2.6.xxx).
So I used the cab sender with the original HTC update (found it on this board) - it worked without any problem and I have the same versions as posted on the pic in the first message (bootloader 4.6.175006.2(140733)).
My question is: Will I be able to receive official Zune updates after that? Or am I stuck to the cab sender for future updates (7.8 & co.)?!
My device is not flashed or changed in any way - just used that HTC update cab...
Couldn't find a quick answer to that...
THANKS ! :fingers-crossed:

Short answer yes, you will still get official (future) updates from Zune. I reckon if you have waited a bit longer, you would have received update notification from Zune but doesn't matter anyway now that you have the updated firmware.
I have an AT&T branded HTC Titan, and aside from the wifi bug, my device generally works as expected. I used the cab sender "force update" method to upgrade to Tango, and again-- everything is pretty solid.
Can I (and should I consider) update the HTC firmware for general device fixes if I have no intention of unlocking the device?

The available cab htc firmware update is for Euro/International/unbranded Titan, so this will not install on AT&T branded Titan. It will come with error it you try to install the cab.
this is very confused
So as title says I want every god damn person who have, had this kind of buged phone, tell their expirence, for start I will tell mine.
When i got phone in about was writen x310e, then in SPL screen was written spl 2.5.16.xx in bottom F400, no connection to PC, my next step was to download every god damn europan eternity ROM and flash it via Gold card, when i was getting tierd of changing memory sticks i found one that did the trick with HD7, so i was happy but bump, no work on Titan, so I was searching for solutions and found Cingular eternity ROM with 1.x.xx, so i tried to flash it via gold card and it worked!!! BUT(one big but) it didnt changed Baseband version it stayed 2.5.16.xx i was kinda surprised i thought the flashing failed, but it didnt, the F400 was away and i have Cingular ROM, next step was trying to flash 4.06 bb 2.06... Nothing worked, so i thought i destroyed it since after cingular ROM nothing was flashable, the HSPL allways showed success but nothing changed in SPL screen, but my Titan isnt unflashable it can only be flashed vai goldcard with famous Cingular stock ROM, i managed to update Titan via cab and thats my max triumph.
My humble opinion is that the baseband chip got overloaded or mybe locked to this single stock ROM witch is Designed for this version of Titan.
I have and offer that for 20 euros a phone repair shop can do something with my phone and change the baseband same as make it posible to run customs ROM, they told me 99% it will work, tho he didnt wanted to tell me the method he will use, i supose the J-TAG box method.
You all are free to comment on my case and tell your I am willing to do something extra for at&t Titan users.
Thanks for reading
..... lucky
Ok, I'm in same situation. My titan is trapped in spl 2.5 and the only rom I can flashed is the Cingular eternity rom. You're lucky man if you can flash a custom rom if you're titan was trapped in spl 2.5. Need to know in more detail what do you do to got the freedom.
I'm not getting this, so you're saying you have an AT&T Titan with a model X310e? I though US Titan models are X310a.
It was saying x310e because i had europan ROM when i got it, how that guy managed to install european ROM on it have no clue, all i know is i couldnt install that ROM again after i flashed Cingular ROM, if i could i would investigate how he did it, but i think he flashed European eternity ROM with spl 2.05 without debranding phone first so he got stuck in 2.05 and F400 errror. That is my opinion
I'd say the same thing, the SPL block probably been overwritten by the X310e model. Happened to my DE Trophy, HSPL'd first then installed a stock NZ Rom, but bootloader has been overwritten by the NZ ROM, now the CID is broken but it still recognizes itself as DE Trophy.
So i found this ROM and flashed it IMG Eternity Cingular 2.01.502.04 Radio 16.23.03.17_16.27.00.23U OS 7.10.7740.16 TEST and it did flash, but Bootloader Version didnt changed

The European ROM can be flashed; change the image name from ETERIMG to ETERDIAG; be patient; it will flash; my device says x310e but the SPL remains 2.5.160015.3 (137079). A couple of days ago I got that same F400 error and I reflashed and it went away. He isn't using a custom ROM, what he did was use the WP7 Cab Sender and updated the OS to the latest build which is 8773 (8779 for some AT&T language packs).
I just HSPL'd my device...all of you with x310e ROMs, I will post this in detail later today...I put on my gold card DFT's NBH file for the SPL2.05...it took forever for the "Enter USB Host Mode" to change to load, but it will; next restart the device in bootloader and run DFT's HSPL...I think you have to be really, really patient with the USB Host...I will post more over on DFT thread later.

Just follow the steps I have posted or other instructions where the debrand instructions are; read that entire thread thoroughly; my device began with those specs but now I'm HSPL and using a 17 version Radio. Be patient; read it and the HSPL thread and Wiki.
Bootloader problem?
Your problem is exactly like I had when the HTC bootloader (no matter if SPL HSPL or RSPL is used) got "semi-bricked" , although the auto-turn offs I also experienced vanished in two or three weeks after installing OS (depends on amount of restarts)
This was on another Mango-Tango device (Trophy) but semi bricked for sure......And I guess your device was recovered and then sold after being dumped before as -"completely bricked"- by another owner.

Hi,
my Titan is stuck at
PI39100 MFG
SPL-2.5.160015.3(137079)
with europian official 7.5 rom
I can't HSPL. I wonder if I may rename the ETERIMG to ETERDIAG for the SPL2.05 so I can reinstall it, just it case the device may unblock...
Have looked around but cannot find a stock Cingular HTC Titan (Eternity ?) rom. Previous thread hosted by Football is defunct.
Can anyone please point me to Stock Singular HTC Titan rom?
I am trying to uninstall HSPL ( I am at the dreaded 2.5 SPL, ATT Titan 1) and need this stock rom to try to revert back to 1.0 SPL.
For my ATT HTC Titan I, I debranded, SPL, HSPL and it says HSPL is there on the Phone's SPL screen - but I cannot use any custom rom that uses Radio 17. Only radio 16 works.
Thanks

There is nothing wrong with your phone; in fact there are many here who would give their life to own your phone. For many of the custom ROMs here you have to flash "radio 16" with radio 17. If you have not done this then your phone will be stuck at the HTC logo on startup. You have "gold" in your hands and you don't know it.

Guys, I have tried the roms listed here on this site that also have the associated radio files as well But everytime I install a custom ROM, with the radio 17, my phone stops at th e HTC logo and never moves from it.
Also, I cannot update the SPL 2.6 from HTC now - it always stays at SPL 2.5
My only need is to unlock my phone so that I do not have to keep enterting the unlock code everytime the phone restarts. I have bought the unlock code from ebay and it does work, but have to keep entering it after every boot cycle.
I found the cingular Eternity 1.0 ROM, installed it - but the SPL continues to remain @ SPL 2.5 with the HSPL info as is on the SPL screen.

"Lund123" I need you to listen to me for a moment...if your device is stuck at the HTC logo on startup, your radio is incompatible with the ROM on the device. If you have already flashed the custom ROM and it requires you flash the radio it will be with the entire package you downloaded. I use Eburon 2.1; the radio and ROM are separate and both must be flashed from bootloader mode. To use Eburon you must flash the radio that comes with it. Your device is HSPL; it needs no further tinkering with. The custom ROMs can be flashed at will. One warning, a return to official stock ROMs will likely re-lock your phone. The goal of these threads are to achieve what you apparently don't realize; you are HSPL. It is not automatic for many of us to achieve this; HSPL opens your device in a way that can only be described a dream. You're lucky! Flash the radio separately from the bootloader; it's no different than flashing the ROM. In regards to having to re-enter a code; it appears your device may not be subsidy (carrier) unlocked or there is a security lock put on the device which it will ask before it launches the OS. That may require you running what a few of us in the old days did with our HD2s and Rhodiums...perform a task 29, but you may need a deeper "wipe" something akin to a low-level format on a PC.
"berrywr": I get that HSPL is already on the phone, and I am grateful for that. But I believe, I have loaded both the custom rom + radio that comes with it with no positive results.
I have tried the Dynamics ROM (as an example) and the Radio that comes with tit. First I flased the ROM uising the bootloader method. Then I repeated the same for the Radio. Same results, stuck on HTC logo. I have used the RUU program that it comes with to load the roms. I even have tried using the GOLDCARD for these roms, but same results. And Yes, I get it that I need to install the rom first and then the radio that comes with the package. Interestingly, my Radio on the SPL screen never changes to Radio 17, it always stayed 16 (like in the image posted on the 2nd message, I have never seen it read Radio 17.xxx).
Thanks

It's possible you have the radio glitch where the radio does not change after flashing. Have you tried searching the Titan thread, to see if anybody else has mentioned the problem? I know I swear I've seen this happen to other users...I will do a search tonight to see if I can find anything.
I have looked around and most of the folks are having trouble getting the HSPL to load, my problem has not been stated elsewhere that I could find. I for some reason have the HSPL but I cannot do the following:
1. Cannot use the HSPL program to revert back (uninstall HSPL). When I tried to install OSPL from within the program it errors out.
2. If I install any other radio than 16, it does not take affect - the update goes successfuly, but the SPL screen shows radio 16
3. I cannot install the SPL 2.6 from HTC - it does not take affect. The SPL screen still shows 2.5. Since I cannot have SPL 2.6, I am unable to get some OS updates.
Will keep looking. RUU and goldcard programs - both working properly but result in same outcomes.
