Caution to anyone looking to updating:
The ability to force roaming has been taken out on this ROM. There are work arounds for this at PPCgeeks.com if you search. Other changes include internet connection sharing is now limited to Phone As Modem plans only (again, there are workarounds online), as well as some applications having issues.
Overall, the BEST rom released yet!
Oh screw that. I'll wait and see if dcd or someone else can add that back. Sprint service sucks in my apartment and I frequently lock it to roaming so I can complete a phone call without dropping it.
Then again, I'm stuck with a second broken Mogul and my USB connection doesn't work (though it charges), so I don't really have to worry about new firmware at the moment. I'm stuck on the old as hell original firmwares with all the bugs and no gps or evdo. :(
@Andrew
You've got EVDO on your old ROM; just it's Rev. 0 and not Rev. A.
You're correct, I was typing lazy. :)
@ Andrew you can flash to the new leaked rom. Download it and extract the exe. Format your minisd card (Must be 2GB or lower) to fat32. Now go to the extracted folder and rename the file RUU_signed.nbh to TITAIMG.nbh and copy it to the root of the minisd card. Now press the power and camera button at the same time. While holding both buttons down, soft reset your phone with your stylus. After that just follow the onscreen directions and your phone will flash to the new rom.
Goodluck,

@Churma:
I wish it were this simple. However, you apparently can't flash the bootloader from SD. I spent hours the other day trying to update my phone past where I am, however, I'm stuck with a 1.x version of olipro's bootloader. This was a phone that I stopped using around December when it was replaced with a new one, and now that the new one just died too, I'm back to this one again until I get another new one.
The only thing holding me back is the bootloader. Everything else, radio, OS, etc can flash from SD, but not a bootloader. :(
@ Andrew you can flash from the bootloader as I have done many times while on the road. I flash almost five times a week as I am a rom cooker and get bored of my titan. Search for Mikee4fun over at xda and pm me. I will help you out. PPC Geeks is down do to database issue right now.
Cheers,
Churma
