Re: Qwest + Mogul = No Update Ever?

Another Qwest/Mogul user here...

Just wanted to share my experience with upgrading...

Started with the standard Qwest 2.13 ROM (didn't write down all the details ... didn't think I'd need them).

1) Used ##778# to grab EPST info (did not have the MSL, so I didn't get my passwords )
2) Unlocked bootloader with Olipro 2.4
3) Installed the Sprint 3.35 ROM
4) Stupidly allowed it to complete its customizations (I think it resulted in the wiping of my extrom info ... which included the iota/internet/data info that I needed and didn't record)
5) Installed DCD Qwest_3.01 ROM

After #5, everything but the internet worked great (Google maps worked ... using WiFi ... sent/received phone calls & text/SMS).

Thinking I had nothing to lose, I went back to step #3 and reinstalled the Sprint_3.35 ROM (must say that I really do prefer the application set that Sprint offers over Qwest). With just the Sprint ROM installed, everything but the internet worked perfectly (again, GPS worked with WiFi ... send/receive calls and SMS worked).

I even called Qwest and asked if they could reset my account to see if that would help. They claimed they did, but I was still fiddling with my settings, so I may have negated whatever they did.

I then tried to downgrade back to Qwest 2.13 and have observed the following:

Relocking Bootloader w/ Titan_Relocker:
- BootLoader/SPL: Titan 1.06 (Titan_Relocker)
- Radio: 3.35
- ROM: Sprint 3.35
- Result: Mogul would 'reboot' a few seconds after loading up

- Trying to downgrade via an old Sprint ROM (ie: 2.17) results in an RUU error (Invalid Vendor ID).

Keeping the Unlocked BootLoader:
- BootLoader/SPL: Olipro 2.40
- Radio: 3.35
- ROM: Qwest 2.13 (used the 'signed' ROM provided by Bunvilla (sp?) )
- Result: Mogul would freeze at the black 'HTC' logo screen

Also tried downgrading the radio ROM while still using the Olipro 2.40 bootloader:
- Result: Received an RUU error '328' (Invalid Command)
(Same error when trying to downgrade to previous Sprint ROMs- ie: 2.17)

So, as it stands, I currently have a Qwest/Mogul phone running the following:
- BootLoader/SPL: Olipro 2.40
- Radio: 3.35 (from Sprint 3.35 ROM ... also known as Special_4350.nbh)
- ROM: Sprint 3.35

I can send/receive calls and text and even do some GPS tracking via WiFi ... but I have NO internet/data service.

I need to either:

A) Get internet/data working under either the Sprint 3.35 or DCD_Qwest_3.01 ROM, or
B) Downgrade the phone back to Qwest 2.13 (and either 1.39/1.40/1.47 radio ROM) with a locked bootloader (Titan 1.06 ?)

If anyone has any thoughts, feel free to post/email them (I'm willing to try just about anything).

P.S.: On a few occasions, I've gotten the phone stuck at the bootloader (3 colored stripes) and found out you can use 'mtty.exe' to unfreeze the phone.
