XV6800 Bricked
I would be considering any suggestions as to what to do now....first I unlocked the phone after getting the WM6.1 update. Everything was fine except for the sound over the USB, which I could live without. Then decided to unlocked the phone and that point the phone was stuck at the bootloader. Ok I figured that it might be missing the OS but first I decided to install the "dcd_titan_2.1.0_vzw_softwareupdate" and after this all I kept getting was the Verizon white screen with the "no radio" message in red letters. After that I decided to do the "titan_radio_3.27.00" update to see if that would fix the radio problem. After that install the phone shut down and all I get is the red LED when I plug the phone to the PC. The bootloader wont come up with a HARD or SOFT reset. I did notice that after that radio install on the phone the pc did see the modem portion of the phone and installed the drivers on its own. I been reading and readin forums but none say what to do with a bricked phone so here is the million dollar question. WHAT IS NEXT??? ](*,)

Re: XV6800 Bricked
You should try to downgrade back to stock vzw rom (the old one)...there should be a post in the titan upgrading section about going back to stock vzw....then start all over again with whatever radio and rom you want to use...spent most of wed. and thurs of last week doing the same thing...hope this helps...

Re: XV6800 Bricked
Just finished installing the 6.1 update. The only thing that I see that this update broke is the ability to listen to any sounds from the USB.

Re: XV6800 Bricked
I am thinking about unlocking the phone but it is getting confusing trying to find a thread that is easy to follow. Any pointers anybody?

Re: XV6800 Bricked
i think you need to spend a few more days reading up on what you are doing.
isn't one brick enough? start with all of the verizon update threads.... you have a lot of work ahead of you if you want to switch roms and have gps. good luck! |

Re: XV6800 Bricked
Thanks again...I will follow your advise and do a lot more reading. If I find it to be too confusing to unlock the phone and change things around I will not do it. I just thought it would be fun and easy to do. That is all.

Re: XV6800 Bricked
if u want GPS... u need at least spl 2.4 radio 3.24.30 and on vzw i would suggest the mixture of Shadowtech's guide and gc14's. I composed a guide mixing shadow-tech's instructs and the vzw info on hofo... but u need to unlock w/ 2.4 which is really easy once downloaded and upload to a new radio AFTER the unlock. Sometime when u upgrade the unlocker it gets stuck at the bootloader screen (3 color bars) dont worry, just put in ur radio rom... instal that, if its still a problem, put in DCD's rom (3.2.6) and install that and it will work fine. Then ur phone is unlocked and if u want GPS follow in the instructs in this guide if ur on VZW

Re: XV6800 Bricked
Just for clarification...the main reason for all this is to enable the GPS that is built in on the phone and blocked by Verizon...

Re: XV6800 Bricked
Just to give an update about my progress....so far so good. Just finished unlocking and reflashing the phone. I am able to access internet and make calls with no problems without having to reprogram the phone. Now I am working on getting the GPS to work without the VZ Navigator...wish me luck
