It’s a bit late but here is a a quick tutorial on how to get EVDO Rev. A (a la speeds I was getting in my last post) on your HTC Titan/Mogul/P4000. First, you will need to obtain the OilPro 1.2 Unlocker from here, the newer OilPro 2.4 Unlocker here, and last but not least, the magical official Sprint 3.35 radio from here.

To make everything simple, I decided to make this tutorial into five easy steps.

1. Unlock (or Downgrade) your bootloader to the OilPro 1.2 Unlocker that you downloaded.
2. After you completed the downgrade, upgrade your Radio using the radio installer (this works for all carriers by the way).
3. Upgrade your bootloader from 1.2 to 2.4 using the file you upgraded (note: if you get a error at the very end, you can safely ignore this.
4. Do a hard reset. Hold the two buttons with the round icons under the screen and depress the reset button, and follow the instructions on the screen. Do a hard reset.

5. Install your favorite ROM…. I highly reccomend No2Chem’s NueROM 6.1 I have never found a ROM faster than this. The turotial is located at http://www.kooty.net/?p=18 . Be sure to visit XDA-Developers or PPCGeeks for questions – or of course contact me.

Please make sure you backup all your PIM info before you upgrade. You may have to reprogram your phone via your carrier (easy process, don’t be frightened) after this update – those who updated their ROMs before shouldn’t have to.

By the way, Telus users should call *22803 and press 2 to upgrade their tower information to the latest version. Also, follow the instructions on the NueROM tutorial by me to edit your network settings.

I’ve got a HTC P4000, also known on the market as the HTC Titan, or HTC Mogul. I was really bugged at the fact that the OS was really slow. After a bit of looking into it, I realized that most of the stock ROMs are running very bloated, with all this shit running in the background that isn’t supposed to be. Well after a lot of hacking and research, I found that the best ROM to run on the phone….. Windows Mobile 6.1 by No2Chem. I swear it’s the fastest ROM that I’ve ever used in my life. It used to take at least 4+ seconds to open the \Windows\ Directory, but now it only takes a maximum of around 1.5 seconds. I say that’s an amazing improvement.

I’ll lay out a VERY simple install guide for you n00bs, but for those of you that have issues, you should look at the official thread located here.

• Unlock your OS using the OilPro 2.4 Unlocker, and follow the steps on the install carefully.
• You should now be on the tri-color screen that should show that you are running the OilPro bootloader now.
• Download the latest ROM from the PPCGeeks FTP here, or e-mail me, and I’ll give you a direct dl link from here.
• Disable ActiveSync on your phone.
• Flash your ROM using the Rom Update Utility here
• Do a hard reset, and have fun (To do a hard reset, hold the two buttons with the round icons under the screen and depress the reset button, and follow the instructions on the screen).

For Telus users, please set your CDMA1x username via. Connections to <phonenumber>@1x.telusmobility.com and your password to your ESN that you can find in your device information.

EDIT: I updated the ROM link to point to build 5059 that is based on the official WM6.1 Build 19202
