I'm out and about and mobile version kind of limited, but under Titan, development look for the step by step to debranding your titan by pbp8ntballer. I did it back in the first days if July but I think I used 2.05 EUR rom. However, that is the link that I followed to a tee and it'll help you.

Thanks a lot for the advice. I'll try to do it over the weekend. I'll post the outcome then.

Just a quick question before I take the plunge. Does the downloaded Eternity-Europe-nbh file have to be renamed to ETERIMG.nbh? This is not mentioned anywhere but further do mention to replace the ETERIMG.nbh withthe same named file from HSPL_WP&SG1. So what goes? Thanks for any answer.

Yes, if you are using GoldCard method to Flash a new Rom or Radio, all Roms Files & Radio files have to be rename ETERIMG.nbh for the HTC Titan
Goog luck

Thanks a lot for the clarification. I guess without renaming the file I would bricked the phone.

Without renaming the file, the phone would just sit there and not flash anything as it is looking for eterimg.nbh

Keep in mind, there are lots of qualified people here on XDA and not saying anything negative about anyone here at all, but I'd be careful taking advice from anyone that doesn't know the USA AT&T Titan. The 2 version flash the same AFTER the debranding. And this is something that not everyone is aware of. Just saying. I only say this because I have seen lots of threads here with people giving advice on this subject and are phone is dead wrong.

Hi, guys: Thanks so far for the help, but I can't flash the phone with gold card. It seems to be lock to AT&T. See attached photo. I followed the instructions and it starts to load the information but after about 2 minutes a screen pops up and it stays there without doing anything. I let it sit for more than a hour and it doesn't go beyond that screen. See the other attached photo. What can I do now?

 

[GreenGrenadez]

Those pics are really small and make it difficult to read what the screen says. Any chance you could type out what is in those pics?

 

[malvo26]

Let upload the photos a bit bigger. Maybe you can then see the text.

 

[GreenGrenadez]

Ok your SPL is still 1.10 (that's good!) It sounds like your mistake is in either making your gold card, what kind of reader you have attached to your gender changer or the way that you have connected everything to your y-cable.

 

[GreenGrenadez]

Things to try / check:
1) when making your gold card make certain that you do a complete format in FAT32
2) When copying the .nbh file to yur card, rename it to ETERIMG.nbh
3) Here is how to connect everything to your y-cable:

a) the male end that has the 2 other wires coming out of it connects to your power source
b) The short male end that comes out of the previously mention end connects to you gender changer with your SD card reader connected to it
c) the last end connects to you phone​

I used the parts listed in my attached pic.

Happy flashing! I personally recommend This ROM

 

[malvo26]

Thank you very much GreenGranadez for the quick replay. Here's what I did:
I downloaded the HTC-Europe rom, renamed to ETERIMG.nbh, copied it to a Sandisk Cruzer Edge 4 GB Flash drive preiviously formatted to FAT32, executed the the Gold Card programme and applying the goldcard.img to the flash drive. Then I connected the flash drive to a USB-cable with 3 male connectors for an external hard drive, with one of the connectors for power only. Then I connected the Titan wall outlet to the power only lead, plugged USB gender changers on the other 2 leads, connected the flash drive to one of the contacts and the USB-cable to the phone holding camera and volume button at the same time. Phone goes into USB mode and starts loading the image but does not go beyond the image I posted earlier. That is why I suspect the boot loader is locked.

 

[GreenGrenadez]

Na, it's not locked. There's something wrong. You say that it never left the screen that you posted. If that's the case you were not in USB Host mode. You enter USB Host mode by holding down the vol down button + Camera button + power button. It will show your Bootloader / SPL screen for a quick second then say "entering USB Host mode". There it waits for your gold card, then takes over from there.

 

[malvo26]

I'll give that a try and come back.

Ok, I tried that. A screen opens Enter USB Host Mode and then I connected the gold card, but no go. It starts loading and after a while the screen appears I posted in Foto2. I'm attaching Foto3 (Loading...) and Foto4 with cable configuration. I only "coiled" the cables for the photos.

 

[GreenGrenadez]

Does you Y-cable have two female ends? Mine has two male ends and only 1 female end. I only needed 1 gender changer.

change your power adapter and card reader

 

[malvo26]

The cable has 3 male ends and that's why I used 2 gender changers.

 

[GreenGrenadez]

Did you make it or buy it? I'm no y-cable expert, but all the ones I've seen, even when I was shopping on amazon for mine, where 2M and 1F. Could be the problem.

 

[malvo26]

No I didn't make that Y-cable. It came together with a hard drive case I bought. The longer lead is about 20 inches.

 

[GreenGrenadez]

Well if it isn't the cable, try another SD card. The first one I used didn't work and finally using a Sandisk 1GB worked (I tried an 8GB sandisk first)

You're on the right track. Bootloader isn't locked (I've not heard of that). Review the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597837, and keep with the plan of debranding first, then DFT's instructions.

Accent Color (HTC Blue Twice)

This is a good rom, like I said before very fast. I tried to add more accent colors with Advanced Config, but it only messed up something so bad I needed to hard reset. After adding the accents, the menu to change them didnt open anymore and Advanced Config could start neither. I tried it twice with same results.

There are few accent colors that do not work properly on the light theme. Giving wrong font color (white on white) in some program menus. Like rouge on Root Tools for example. Could I suggest you change some or add few theme colors that Microsoft uses with operators and OEMs, they should work properly with light and dark themes. Here is some:

Orange Accent Code --> #FFFF6501
T-Mobile Grey Accent Code --> #FF4b4b4b
Vodafone Accent Code --> #FFEF001F
Virgin Media Accent Code --> #FFCC0001
Giffgaff Accent Code --> #FFCBFE33
HTC Green Accent Code --> #FF69B40F
Nokia Blue Accent Code --> #FF004C9A

Also like with Eburon and Dynamics roms on the integrated Facebook the notifications are not coming through as they should. Only the first notification (like or if someone commented) comes, notifications on that post stop after that. But as this is in all of the roms the issue is probably in the original one too.

I agree with you that add these few Accent Colors will be nice.
I also noticed that same HTC (blue) is twice options in this ROM (Settings / Theme / Accent Color). Does it possible to fix it?
