I wouldn't flash a full GPS exe with radio yet though.

PS: Jakdillard, you can't flash a hardSPL from a hardSPL they have overwrite protection and you can't do it from a locked SPL as it's not signed by HTC.

Thanks for the clear up .....

ImCokeMan...

Not to contradict you but I thought it was a bad idea to flash to a pre-gps rom to a phone that already has a gps rom..
Shouldnt he use the latest sprint update to flash to an official rom since he said that the sprint tech upgrade to wm6.1.

But Im probably wrong with you credentials you know what your talking about.

Here is the exact sequence of my actions:

1.) Got Mogul from Sprint with updated 6.1 ROM.
2.) Ran Titan Unlocker (1.20.Olipro)
3.) Got stuck at boot screen, so I tried to reflash 6.1 ROM. It froze at 11% during the restore process and restarted.
4.) Looked here on PPCGeeks and decided to try flashing 2.17 ROM via USB and it worked, but displays "No Radio" and freezes at Windows Mobile screen. (Tried 2.17 SD flash method, but fails at "CMDA" portion...I'm guessing this is where it is trying to flash the Radio and fails)
5.) Tried some of the other suggestions here, including the nueROM, but that just leaves me stuck with the "No Radio" message at bootup.

Any other suggestions? If not, I may just take the phone to the Sprint store with the 2.17 ROM and show them that it's freezing at the Windows Mobile screen. Hopefully they'll replace it.

Can I flash the 2.40.Olipro using the SD method (i.e. copying the TITAIMAGE.nbf from the install folder to the SD card)?

flash the official 3.56 rom from the sd card.

Just extract the files out of the exe package using winrar and copy the signed_ruu.nbh file to sd card like the other one and rename it the same titaimg.nbh.

Then put into bootloader. If bootloader is already up. Reset and if it tries to load wm again put into back into bootloader. If it loads bootloader then the rom should flash just fine.

I actually ran into something really similar when I got my second mogul since someone had already put olipro 1.2 on it. They told me it was a new one...lol..I knew right away, I said something then the guy was like how do you know, then I pointed out the sticker on one of the bolts had been tampered with..Idiots. something as simply as that and they trying to exchange it as a new one..Im just working towards another free upgrade.

If you cant figure out extracting the files I set up a download somewhere.

Well, I tried just flashing the Olipro 2.40 bootloader, but as expected, it didn't work.

Trying the 2.16 Sprint ROM now.

Well, I found someone who appears to have done the same thing as me. He posted back in May:

I'm going to guess that, since I am getting the "No Radio" message, I am screwed.

Make sure you put the file in the root directory of the 512mb micro-SD that came with the device. Once there, hold down camera and power buttons while tapping the reset pin on the bottom of the device. Now it should flash bootloader from SD.

What I don't know is if your device will work properly until a proper rom is put on there. Best best is to put nueROM 2.2 pre7 using the same flash from SD card technique described above. Note the ROM file must be renamed to TITAIMG.nbf for the bootloader to recognize it. Also, after flashing any ROM, please remove your battery followed by a hard reset.

Please let us know how this works out for you.

Sorry I was incorrect.
You are lucky, you have some real "pros" advising you now.

I believe there's a typo in the previous post though. The file should be named titaimg.nbh not "nbf". Good luck.

This worked just fine. (Though the bootloader still shows 1.20.Olipro, I'm not sure if this matters.)
