[BUG]AT&T HTC Titan I {The legendary bug} - HTC Titan

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...

RAPH Paper weight - SPL

Dear all,
I am facing a problem here.
Had a hardware problem with the built in microphone and had to revert back to stock rom/splash screen/Original SPL in that order.
Had no problems reverting the ROM and the original screen back (just a couple of flashes), BUT when I tried to revert back the stock SPL here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=110582&d=1220406410
I renamed the file to RAPHIMG.nbh, copied it to the root of the SD Card and entered bootloader mode and this is what it displays:
RAPH100
SPL-1.90.0000 (Which means a successful flash)
!!! AND THEN THIS !!!
"Upgrade ROM code error"
"Please try again"
This message is located in the last part of the green stripe in the tri color screen (bootloader)
It is then followed by the grey screen automatically which you are supposed to press volume key to start a flash process BUT it just HANGS at Loading...
unabling you to flash anything.
It's actually a friend's phone too so I guess you understand how hard it is....
Any help is appreciated
Thanks in advance
Possible image might be corrupt on sd card, grey screen is shown when it's trying to read sd, have you tried with sd removed? if you get to 2nd tricolor screen with sd removed i would use usb flash to restore it to working order..

Removed the SD and it stays at the tricolor screen with the spl version as mentioned in 1st post.
Also, displaying the Upgrade ROM code error, please try again message
The mode is currently serial
What can I do from here?

You cannot flash an SPL from the bootloader. You need to use SSPL. The directions can be found in the HardSPL thread.

Hey man, thx for stopping by..
If I understand correctly, SSPL runs through the device which is stuck at bootloader currently... or am I hopefully wrong??
If you're at the tricolor screen and it reads serial, that should be fine.. plug in usb and it should switch to usb.. then flash a stock carrier rom through usb.. that should get you up and running and you can then run sspl and flash your spl

Keep in mind im currently on stock SPL, do u think flashing the stock ROM is ok?
That's exactly why i suggested stock ROM, stock SPL will only accept stock ROM's (it will overwrite the spl too so make sure the stock rom you are using is the right one)
dude....i hate to say this...butyou might be s.o.l. at this point. i did the same to my fuze not too long ago... tryingto flash anything to the phone just locks it up.i was lucky enough to bs my way through an att guy to get me a new one (was still under the 30 day warranty).

I had the same problem as you and could not flash any rom, Always get Invalid vendor ID.
You need the right Stock Rom to flash and in my case in the middleeast, the Stock Rom is so far only available in at HTC.
I had to take the phone to HTC Service Center and they flashed the correct Stock Rom and charged me as they did it out of warranty.

Sorry about my last post... I misread your issue.
If you flashed the stock 1.90 SPL from the HardSPL thread, then you will need to ask Olipro (or cmonex) which WWE ROM it originated from. That ROM is the ONLY one your phone will accept.
The steps in reverting SPL for warranty / return state to always do the ROM first so that you do not run into this problem. I had the same issue when I was testing a US 3G Diamond I bought from Best Buy (to become acclimated to TF3D prior to the Fuze's release). I restored the SPL first, and then couldn't get Dutty's ROM off the phone, because I could not locate a downloadable version of the WWE ROM that phone came with. [Luckily, Best Buy Mobile's employees in KOP, PA aren't too clever, and I was able to convince them that the phone came that way. ]

Hmm, then I need to know from which ROM the SPL originated and then flash it.
Thing is, some of the shipped roms available at wiki are just nbh files..
I tried flashing with the wrapper exe and the RaphaelCustomRUU.exe and still all roms I've downloaded don't seem to work.
It's a RAPH100 untied to a network.

Post in the HardSPL thread asking which ROM the SPL originated from. Once you know that, you can download the appropriate ROM from the Wiki.

SPL has nothing to do with the Invalid Vendor ID Error, It is the CID. In another word you can flash SPL 1.95 and still can not flash the AT Rom 1.95.502.5 because the CID is different.
Regards
ViperBJK's QMAT features GoldCard generator for current HTC devices that can force RUU to bypass CID check.
Do you know what is the CID of your device?

The CID is determind by the SPL.
Look up the error code posted... everything points to HardSPL. Back in my Wizard days, HardSPL did not exist, and we just did a CID unlocking. This is not the case with newer devices.
All ROMs are not created equal. Each WWE ROM checks for specific information within the SPL, and if it doesn't find what it's expecting, fail...

Where can I know that?
@NotATreoFan && Shafez,
I remember from TyTNII day when Shafez suggested extracting 3.29 and 28 SPLs from the newer shipped 6.1's for a better responsive device.
We could extract and build with htc rom tool if I remember the name of the tool correctly.
Do we have a tool as such compatible with TP? (agreeing with NotATreoFan here)
@Shafez,
Since you think it is not SPL and it is a CID issue, what can I do about it?
Sending it to SVC for repair out of warranty is an option but I'd like to leave it as my last.
Did they provide the ROM or they flashed it for you?
Were u able to make raw files out of it for future use or any1 else has it?
Thx guys and keep the help coming

Since you cannot get past the bootloader, your only option is to find the WWE ROM that matches the SPL you flashed. Even though the HTC ROM Tool "signs" the NBH file, it still won't fool the stock bootloader... if it did, we wouldn't need HardSPL.

[Q] WTF does this mean O.O?!

have a own look at it take 2 minutes, actually like 17sec then it gets stuck on the white screen....

well it could mean you flashed a new rom based on a 2.x core, which requires a ..50.. radio and you haven't changed the radio yet. Enter bootloader, flash a radio, , for example 2.12.50.x radio. phone will now boot.
If that isn't the problem, then its a REAL problem and you should start by flashing your correct stock rom.
Thanks for the reply,
i got the stock rom from the website of htc.com,
Version operation system: 5.2.21913(21913.5.0.941)
Manila version: 2.5.20181527.0
ROM version:3.14.404.2(04666)NLD
ROM date: 10/06/10
Radio: 2.15.50.14
Protocol: xxxxxx
SPL-1.66.0000
i changed the SPL back like you said, thank you for that again!
so the radio is crashing it?
which version do i have to flash it?
ok so there's a problem right there, because a 3.14 rom and any spl that isn't 3.03.0000 wont work anyway (though it should boot, , , )
This says that hspl has been used to apply the 31.4 rom, so forget why it wont boot, you just need to get a matching stock rom / spl for now.
first step is to identify your phone. is it ROM locked (nothing to do with network lock) o.e is it branded? Vodafone for example?
Basically, you need to find the correct stock ROM for your phone. so if it was voda nld, then you need voda nld rom, if it was o2 germany, then o2 germany rom.
find one, any version, and enter bootloader, connect to usb, run the stock rom.exe
i Got Telfort, not like T-mobile ect...
which means the rom is not locked.
So what do i have to download? i mean i already downloaded the stock rom from the website, i entered my S/N and downloaded and installed it.
i need to change my SPL now?
did you have hspl installed when you flashed it? because it should have upgraded your spl to 3.03.0000 as part of the flash. the fact that it didn't is strange, and then the phone not booting...... odd.
OK, so go back to htc website, find a 1.66 version rom that your serial works with. Get that, phone into bootloader (do all your flashing from bootloader, even when the phone works, simpler), run the flash from usb.
If it works, great. if something odd happens, flash it again using sd card method, and report back.
okew i will try a.s.a.p, and report back, atm, i see you're from the UK, im from holland, 1hour time difference, its 2am in holland ,, so i let you tomorrow know because i guess you also have to sleep...!
btw, what about the radio?
good night!!

question about htc hd2 leo?

Hi, i have an HTC HD2 with ROM version 1.72.161.3 and Flash 512 MB and need to flash it russian. I also have russian rom file 1.66.411.2 and have HSPL2 also. I need to know if i can run HSPL2 on this phone and flash with this russian file? Thanks in advance.
Yea. Hspl first,, then flash over USB.
Boot into bootloader and look to see what SPL version you have. If it is one of the below SPL versions then you can flash HSPL 2 to youe HD2.
SPL 1.42.0000
SPL 1.62.0000
SPL 1.66.0000
SPL 2.07.0000
SPL 2.08.0000
Hi, i flashed it to RUU_Leo_HTC_RUS_1.66.411.2_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship.exe and now i have "Your OS ROM isnt customized for your hardware". Forgot to mention my phone is vodafone. Help
That means you can not use that ROM on your HD2 as it did not come from the area of the world that HD2s that used that ROM were shipped to. Official ROMs are very much area or country specific. If you can find a official ROM from htc.com that is for your HD2 that says WWE in the name it will more than likely have Russian in it, you will just have to go into settings and set it to Russian. Use your serial number on the HTC site to get a list of official ROMs that are for your HD2 Look behimd your battery for your serial number.
Well, i switched on the phone and flashed it, didnt go to bootloader berfore flashing. Could that be the problem?

Naw if you had a ActiveSynce connection you are good. I suggest you always manually put your phone into bopotloader because it will save you some time and it keeps you bootloader from timing out because the RUU takes to long to start the flash for some reason. Plus it bypasses some of the checks the Ruu runs that might keep you from flashing.
Did you hspl first? If yes, did you make the noob error of choosing a x.xx.0000 instead of x.xx.hspl?
Also, you can't flash from SD card in this situation.
Region shouldn't be a problem, but in the past I have seen occasional (rare) mention that Russian is the one region that can cause issue.
Go back to working rom, use psas to get a cid for an SD card, send it me with an email address and ill make you a goldcard. (Assuming re trying hspl doesn't do it)
Thanks everybody for your help...i downloaded RUU_Leo_Vodafone_UK_1.72.161.3 file and repaired the phone. I also gave the phone back to my friend as i dont want to brick the phone.

AT&T HTC Titan HSPL?

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.

by getting my AT&T Titian stuck at SPL 2.5
does this mean my phone is locked from any future customization?
that would really suck

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.

At this point, I'm deperate. Thanks for the advice, I will be sure try this method and hope for the best. I'll try to keep everyone updated with my results in this thread. Thanks again :good:

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.

If this actually works, we need to spread the news about. There are still a bunch of AT&T Titans locked out there on SPL 2.5. franchize1989, OP, give us an update if it worked or not. Good luck

Well that is unexpected

Well as tittle says, i have famous at&t tiatan with 2.05 spl and error F400, was showing USB and SERIAL, now since i tried usb stick and sd card with reader on HTC HD7 confirmed to work, i start proces with titan and i get kicked to BL screen, now what is unexpected is that i, for fun only, flashed this IMG_Eternity_Cingular_US_1.10.502.04_Radio_16.23.02.26_A_16.27.00.23_Signed_ETERNITY_RELEASE.nbh via ROMupdateutillitytool and it flashed But what is main thing is spl didnt changed, nor radio, just FW it is now at&t US rom, I had EU .401 region ROM before, my humble question is should is use hammer on my titan or what? Is there a way to go back to .401 region ROM
thx in advance
EDIT: Well this is even more strange, via goldcard i now flashed same Cingular ROM, but why when i try to flash any other ROM via gold card i get knocked out of USB host mode into bootloader mode?

Why did you flash to the Cingular Rom? From what I understand...you can get rid of the f400 error if you flash via goldcard the stock rom that you had before. Did you try this yet? and did you try flashing to your EU stock rom via the RUU too?
I read over on the DFT thread and noticed you were trying to install DFT's HSPL a couple of days ago. Do you know what SPL version you had before you tried to HSPL?

Why i tried well because not a single one other Stock ROM was flashable via RUU or Goldcard, even stock Cingular ROM wasnt flashable via RUU i only mmanaged to flash it via goldcard. Well I was trying too to get rid of F400 but the thing is my titan is AT&T he was branded, before i bought it someone placed 2.05 spl on it and unlocked it, to meake it simple i got my titan with 2.05 spl, F400 and was x310e in about, every my atempt to flash something via goldcard was failure because it connects with usb stick in USB host mode , it says "Loading..." and then kicks me out to BL screen, exept the 1.10 cingular ROM, hehe but what is funny i get rid of F400 that way but my SPL stayed on 2.05..... :silly: iwill try the famous Tango ROM 4.16 spl i dont care anymore i am pissed or i will do that or use a hammer on this american junk... I had a lot of phones and not a single one was anoying as this one.....
