how to get to bootloader mode?

[PDAPhoneJunkie]

You shouldn't have to. Flashing in normal mode will be just fine.

So not to ask a dumb question but how would I go about flashing a custom rom?(built by someone else not using kitchen myself)

everywhere i find in searching or stickies includes lots of steps with the bootloader

Have you up graded your bootloader to either Olipro 2.40 or NueSPL 2.47? You can find them here, http://dcd1182.n715dp.com/index.php?dir=titan/spl/ The phone will just keep re-booting after a flash if you don't update this.

Which Radio are you running? Latest radio is 3.42.50 which you can get here, http://dcd1182.n715dp.com/index.php?dir=titan/radios/ You'll also need atleast 3.35 to run DCD's roms. 3.42.50 is recommended. I flash via my SD card so I don't loose my A-key with verizon.

You can get DCD's roms here, http://dcd1182.n715dp.com/index.php?dir=titan/roms/ I'm using 3.3.4 but 3.2.6 is also a great rom. After flashing a DCD rom you'll need your carrier cab, which can be found here, http://dcd1182.n715dp.com/index.php?dir=carriers/

Now, when I flash a new DCD rom I connect through active sync, and the phone automatically goes into BL when I run the RUU.

Im running the 3.42.50 radio already and havent used neuspl or olipro since the directions for those programs involved me putting my phone in bootloader mode by pressing power camera and reset?

So by using neuspl am I just upgrading my bootloader or something? can i skip these programs all together?
