Thanks Buddy. No need to be afraid. I have flashed this Titan at least 200 times in making this Rom. You will be fine.

Re: Tinkerbell's 29007 Titan Rom TBN 39.91 Beta
 
200 times? Doesn't it harm the device every time it is flashed. Maybe I don't understand the term 'flash'?

It's the mobile version of 'upgrading' or changing your windows version. Kind of think of it like a mini computer. The only bad that could come out of it, is left over data, that is easily rid-able.

The ROM memory is capable of thousands of rewrites (flashes) before wearing out.

Thanks guys for helping out here. Yes, Buddysousa, you will be fine flashing new life into your device... I know it is a bit scary and intimidating at first. But it is a simple process once you have the Rom. Let us know if you have any more questions!

buddysousa 04-14-2011 07:56 PM

Re: Tinkerbell's 29007 Titan Rom TBN 39.91 Beta
 
So, it the TBN 39.91 all that I need to upgrade this thing? I remember reading something else was needed...

Tinkerbell 04-14-2011 08:16 PM

Re: Tinkerbell's 29007 Titan Rom TBN 39.91 Beta
 
Hey Buddysousa! Is your device unlocked? If it is, then yes, all you need for upgrading your device is included in the Rom link in the first post!

Hey, there is no shame in that! We all start somewhere. I would suggest taking a look a this thread to help you to understand. Basically, you are going to 'unlock' your device to accept a Rom other than the factory Verizon one. Let us know if you have any questions after reading! Thanks!

buddysousa 04-15-2011 08:15 PM

Re: Tinkerbell's 29007 Titan Rom TBN 39.91 Beta
 
Okay, I will check that out. Thx

Tinkerbell 04-15-2011 08:22 PM

Re: Tinkerbell's 29007 Titan Rom TBN 39.91 Beta
 
Awesome. Read through that information so that you become familiar with what you are going to do with your device. If you want to unlock your GPS feature as well, you can download the GPS Toolset v1.22 from the first post. Skip step one of the five steps (so just do steps 2 -5) and you will be all set.

buddysousa 04-16-2011 11:37 AM

Re: Tinkerbell's 29007 Titan Rom TBN 39.91 Beta
 
Well, i would like to have the GPS... why skip a step tho?

Tinkerbell - seems like your GPS Toolset link is broken. Wanted to check it out and see what it does.

Really? Sorry... it is working here. It may be something with how I have our FTP set up. Can someone confirm that it is not working? What error are you getting?

SirRic 04-16-2011 02:34 PM

Re: Tinkerbell's 29007 Titan Rom TBN 39.91 Beta
 
Hello Tinkerbell - the GPS link isnt working for me either - try uploading to megaupload etc

Tinkerbell 04-16-2011 03:32 PM

Re: Tinkerbell's 29007 Titan Rom TBN 39.91 Beta
 
Thank you for checking on that... Let me look at our FTP settings here...

Humm... looks like the settings are correct here. I reset the file permissions to 'Read'. Can someone confirm if it is working for you there now? Thanks!

deegge 04-16-2011 09:38 PM

Re: Tinkerbell's 29007 Titan Rom TBN 39.91 Beta
 
Working now, thanks. Maybe it just needed alittle kick.

Step 1 in Tink's GPS Toolset is to relock your phone. Since your phone is locked you don't need to relock it.

Yes, you are correct here! Buddysousa, just proceed from steps 2-5 and you will be all set as step 5 contains the latest release of the Rom on this thread(TBN 39.91). Enjoy!!

Additional feedback for the rom.

I've been keeping an eye on the memory bar at the top and it gradually seems to be decreasing even if I've closed all programs so I guess there is some memory leakage.

Also I've noticed sometimes while texting the phone seems to get bogged down and has trouble keeping up with my typing. Often closing the messaging program and reopening helps some, but after awhile a soft reset helps more.

Everything else seems to be great.

Thanks.
Thank you for the feedback. Have you been using the Oxios Hibernate to recover lost memory during daily use? Give it a try if you are not already doing so. You will find it under your start menu. Also, you can toggle between high and low memory modes when you are not using your camera, and this will give you about 10 MB more program memory. Yes, sometimes the Titan does get bogged down with all we ask it to do. Soft resets can be our friend.
Yes, Buddysousa, please confirm if YouTube is working or not there. Thanks!

Awe... thank you so much for saying that!! It really makes the effort worth while when we hear comments like this!! As far as donations, I really don't do this for financial gain. It is payment enough to be appreciated! Thank you for the offer though!! =]=]

You are welcome!! What do you mean your maps won't load? Do you mean your screen shows no map? Or it won't adjust with your movements?
