Yes it is better to do it with a card reader or you can use nuespl. I have not personnaly used nuespl to format so I cannot tell exactly how to do it. I just used a card reader, right clicked on the card and used format. I use a 2gb card as well. Actually 2 of them and they both work fine. Make sure the file is on the root of the storage card and it is named TITAIMG.nbh. If the screen that pops up is grey then yes it is trying to read the file.

Card reader did the trick. Upgraded nice and easy. Funny though, it seemed to lock onto GPS sats slower than the older radio. Then again, living where I do (notorious for horrible GPS reception), it's hard to tell.

THANKS!!!!

The first lock for me is kinda slow. After I have done a couple of locks on a new ROM it seems to work faster after that. Even after soft resets. Glad your up and running. Hope you enjoy!

VERY NEW HERE....i am trying to cook and create my own roms...i just bought a 6800 off of ebay and upgraded to alltel's newest rom...RUU_TITAN_ALLTEL_WWE_3.35.671.9_RS_TITAN_03. 37.20_Alltel_2.01_AM_PPST_Ship
which from what i understand updated my radio to 3.35
after this i updated to a build--forgot the build
got home didnt like a few things went to change the build, now my phone is locking up every 30 secs or so and than i have to do a restart sometimes take the battery out sometimes hard reset..everything

any suggestions on where to start

Re: Step by Step tutorial for unlocking your device and cooking your own ROM!!!
 

First I'd just make sure the radio upgraded, to check your radio version:
Easiest way to do this is look for R when you reboot the phone, the number right after is your version

It could also be that your not running an unlocked bootloader...
Press Camera + Power + Reset to enter bootloader, does it say 2.40 or 2.47?
If not, then you need to install 2.40 Olipro or 2.47 NueSPL

Re: Step by Step tutorial for unlocking your device and cooking your own ROM!!!
 

ok, it seems to be working better now...but i have nothing on my phone for apps wise...do you think that it might have been bad apps, conflicting roms or what.

i believe i have everyhting set up correctly-
rom build ok damnit i forgot the build again...on my other computer titan 6.0 or something

but the radio is 3.35


Now, once i loaded my rom, do i have to do anything special..like lock it or anything

i always no matter what..take the battery out for a minute and do the hard reset
most of the time though it hangs up on the second screen for like ever

Re: Step by Step tutorial for unlocking your device and cooking your own ROM!!!
 

Nope nothing special, just make sure your using one of the bootloaders i mentioned in my prev post ;-)
I flash via SD Card, it seems like it takes longer for the first boot, than the actual flash time
(could just be my misconception of time)

Re: Step by Step tutorial for unlocking your device and cooking your own ROM!!!
 

Yeah the first boot takes a while. The first time I flashed I thought it was stuck on that screen.

Re: Step by Step tutorial for unlocking your device and cooking your own ROM!!!
 

I am a newbie to the site, but i love the things you guys are doing. Been flashing for a few days, have a few issues. For one question i have? everyone seems to be flashing via SD card but dont you all have a micro card? My pc doesnt have a micro card reader? do you guys have and adapter which turns it into a regular size SD? I have the ppc6800.
The other issue i have is with the Prime Contacts from one of the mods.. Forget which one, but its on the updates in BuildOs. Everything works fine, but when i hit the Big Green call button for a contact it does nothing. Its suppose to send it to dial but the button does nothing. ? Any ideas
Thanks
JACKAL

not familiar with prime contacts, but yes i have a card reader built in and use an adaptor. either that or u can xfer data to the card via mass storage or activesync
