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.
