Re: Simple steps to flashing your own rom
 
Yes, I did do it by case sensitivity. Just doesn't seem to be working anymore.
I can see the file through activesync if I let it boot normally.
It is TITAIMG.nbh.
When I do the power/camera soft reset - it goes into the SPL2.47 bootloader screen and I can plug and unplug the usb and the text follows.
But it just won't start the update.

The radio image didn't come with an ruu update. Can it be done with ruu? Just change the name to ruu_signed and put the ruu exe in the folder? Is there anything else you have to do?

wierd, maybe you have a bad card, you said it got corrupted before. can you try formating it again, that nuespl cab file gives you an option to just format it.

It's an intermediate bootloader. If you flash it, you'll be sorry.

your not supposed to be in bootloader before you plug the phone into the computer, just have it normally on, then double click the exe and it should run the update.

Hi,

Great writing,m really appreciate it, havnent seen a form which is so clear, thansk for the effort. i have a question.

I own a I-mate jam before (now tytnII) i would like to know can i use this sprint ROM to update my jam (it runs WM 2003) and most importantly i am in middle east, will it work if i insert a simcard of this region? coz it is named sprint rom, i thought may be it will work only with sprint coverage.

Hey I definitely commend you on the effort, but there are already 2 guides like this stickied in this forum, such as:

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=9927

^which personally, I find to be a bit simpler and easier to read. Mainly due to the added numbering and additional links.

However, if you were able to write up a bigger guide, that would include how to use the ppcgeeks kitchen to make your own custom rom, specifically, how to add in applications not included in any kitchen into a custom rom. That would help me out a ton ;P

Oh and you'd get a donation from me if you could explain in detail, how to not only add apps not included in the kitchen, but also how I can add those apps to my custom rom, including how to load the serial / registration keys for my apps into a custom rom. That would be amazing :)

Honestly, I have never flashed a tytnII phone, but I believe that if anything you would have to use the ATT tilt rom, though I think the GSM band you guys have is slightly different than we have in america so I don't know if that changes what would and wouldn't work.

That might be in the stars for the future, but I need to be a bit more comfortable with kitchen building to do that, currently it takes me like 4 trys to get a decent rom. I also understand that the guides are already up there, but as you can see in the posts looking back, people were still confused. This wasn't really intended to be the next end all be all guide, but more so detailing the steps that I didn't understand from reading before, figuring there had to be people like me out there that just werent connecting the dots from those other ones.

for the tytnII check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=378 the concept should be the same, but its probably slightly different programs.

No, you can not use this rom. ROMs are device specific. You will have to find a tytnII ROM (check xda-developers.com).

As far as SIM card usage goes, yes, if you get a SIM card for your region your tytnII will work. The 6800 (Titan) is a CDMA phone, does not use SIM cards, and you likely can not find a CDMA base carrier where you are (GSM is the standard on that side of the world)
