You need the following:
ftp://ftp.ppcgeeks.com/Titan/Users/jtrag/140_radio.rar

This has the RUU and the 1.40 Radio ROM. You need to have your phone connected via ActiveSync (not necessary partnered). Then just run the update utility and that's about all. It'll hard reset your phone so you might wanna back everything up that you need.

I assume: "Is 1.40 better than 1.32?" in any way shape or form?

I'd like to know if its worth getting as well, is signal strength, voice quality or BT audio better?

No matter what I try I still get an error when trying to upgrade from 1.32 to 1.40.

"ERROR [262]: UPDATE ERROR
The ROM Update Utility has encountered communication errors during the update process. The program will guide you step-by-step to recover from the errors so you can continue with the update."

I've tried countless times, any help would be appreciated. Thanks

you dont download it to your phone, you download it to your computer and run the RUU.exe from your computer not the phone. but make sure your phone is connected via usb and activesync has recognized it. also i would suggest not doing anything on your computer while its updating.

Will it work on a 6700?

Can this be used on the 6700? How does this radio differ from an internet radio like Resco? Thanks for the help.

You MUST unlock your bootloader prior to upgrading your RADIO... this also means you will need to reflash your operating system to the phone afterwards (because the unlock requires a flash right afterwards).

This thread will teach you how to unlock your bootloader
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=9093

This link is if you wish to continue running the official STOCK rom flash after you upgrade your bootloader

HTC AMERICA
http://www.america.htc.com/support/default.html

SPRINT ROM DOWNLOAD
http://download.america.htc.com/RUU_...4_new_Ship.exe

If you wish to run a custom ROM, there are 3 that I know of available right now, 2 of them you will find on the XDA boards and one by myself that was made available on Monday 11-26-07

My Custom TITAN ROM *sprint* only (download includes unlocker, radio update, and ROM)
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=12542

Links to the other 2 available roms from XDA

The radio will NOT flash with a ROM, you must follow the steps in this order
0 - Back up your information
1 - UNLOCK your bootloader .... FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS... have your phone powered on, connected to activesync
2 - Once the bootloader update is finished you will then be "stuck" in bootloader, now is the time to install your operating system ROM from one of the 3 links from above (mine, htc's, or xda)
3 - HARD RESET YOUR PHONE
4 - Boot your phone into bootloader by holding the POWER button and the CAMERA button while pressing the soft reset button
5 - Run the Radio Update
6 - Phone will now reset and bootup all by itself

The radio update is fantastic, its makes your Bluetooth work better, gives you better reception, faster internet speeds, and less drain on your battery.

I hope this helps.

You MUST install the TITAN UNLOCKER before any custom ROM will install correctly, hence the error.

Thanks JBabey

I used your instructions from step 4 to 6 and it worked great.
