Red face Upgrading Alltel 6800 Run into Problem

Yesterday I upgraded 1 Alltel PPC 6800 with the Alltel Factory (OEM)
RUU_TITAN_ALLTEL_WWE_3.52.671.9_RS_TITAN_Alltel3.4 2.50_NV2.02_PPST_Ship no problems came up.

However, on the other phone (Both had 6.0) also Alltel PPC 6800 I attempted to upgrade it with the same upgrade above and the upgrade stopped at 11%, on the device screen it shows:
TITA100 SPL-1.20.O.Olipro. (Tri Color)
After reading it appears the former owner (Ebay Purchased Phone) must have flashed the phone prior. Also read where a Olipro 1.20 compatible OEM rom flash must be re-applied to get back to functioning phone. I could not find ALLTEL 2.14.671.3 Radio 1.40 on any of the PDA/Smartphone forums. So I flashed with a compatible Sprint:
RUU_TITAN_SPRINT_WWE_2.17.651.0_RS_TITAN_SPCS_1.47 .01_Ship
It did come back to life.
From reading it appears I need to re-lock the phone, or upgrade to Olipro 2.40, I have not been able to re-lock the phone, I have tried on a XP and Vista Computer. I did try to upgrade to Olipro 2.40 it completes all the steps but phone comes backup to 1.20.Olipro. The flash only last probably 5 to 10 seconds. The only way to get it to boot back to the Sprint OS is to APPLY TITAN_EXITBL then it will return to boot and Sprint OS.

On the device (Device Settings) It shows Rom 2.17.651.0 but no radio.

The Stock Alltel OEM upgrade it where I would like to be for now. As as I understand this is a starting place I could do some of the custom roms at some point on the boards if I wished.

ANY and all help someone can provide to get this thing going on the Alltel system is GREATLY appreciated.
What makes this worse is it is the Wifeys Phone so I am kinda in the OUTHOUSE


Thanks have a GREAT DAY
