So, does anyone want to share their experience? Does it work? Does it make your phone do laundry and cook breakfast?

Posted by: recoilman

Ok, I'll share then.

ROM adds built-in Task Manager. Looks like a revamped HTC X button.
ROM adds GPS. It works with MS Live and Google Maps. Finally.
I'm not sure if we had PowerPoint before or not, but we do now.
EVDO speed is a bit sporadic. The speed tests are kind of all over the place. In non-scientific terms, I think it might be faster now.
User Interface "appears" to be more responsive. Maybe it's me wishing it was, but it "feels" like things open and screens change just a tad quicker.

Unfortunately, this ROM does NOT make the phone do laundry OR cook breakfast.

P.S. Some folks have problems upgrading on Vista. XP worked like a charm.

Can I download the update directly to my mogul?

Posted by: willpower101

sure, but you need to run it from a pc

Everything I have to say about this rom is good so far. I've used about 5 custom roms since the gps version leaked last month.

Gps gets a lock every time within 15 seconds now. Even from cold boot. This is head and shoulders above the last version.
24 megs mem free on install as opposed to something like 22ish.
I find evdo speeds more consistent. Teathered gets 900-1200 mbps constantly.
Pie doesn't crash like it was doing in customs. Although i've yet to put the 6.1 upgrade on which could change that.
Memory management is amazing. Before, pie and gmaps could put the phone at 85% usage. now, I've got both those plus a plethora of other things and all day usage and I'm only at 67%. I seem to start at about 53% used, and after a close all, it's at 57% (close all would usualy release to about 65% on the older roms) So it SEEMS like its actually releasing most of it's memory for a change! YAY!

Other than that everything else seems normal.
Battery life on heavy data usage is a bit less though. I'm sure we can tweak it.

ok, please tell me what "pie" is?

I've now released a cleaned kitchen of this latest Sprint ROM:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377591

In the operator selections, I've set-up Telus to be identical to the utils and settings as released in last July's Telus WM6 ROM. All of the other kitchens and pre-cooked ROMs that I've seen setup Telus with scant fundamentals but provide the carriers utils for the large US carriers suchs as Sprint or Verizon.

ok, I updated my mogul. It rocks! It's way fast! Get it if u can.

Not without hassle, and that's a driving cause behind third party ROMs to provide different operator settings.

Read 4 posts above for one of the available options.

It is best to avoid an attempt to user a carrier's ROM for a client of another carrier's network. ROMs contain a specific carrier settings and applications. That is but one reason why third party pre-cooked/kitchen ROMs exist -- to make use the latest ROM features on another carrier's network.

You have some reading to do, so it's best to start here at the XDA-DevelopersWiki Titan page:

Then head to the Titan upgrading forum for more:

thanks bbg im very new to all this but are being a great help

Posted by: bbg

You're welcome, it's a bit of a learning curve at the start so I think everyone should have fair access to a source for most of our knowledge rather than relying on a third party filter.

There's lot of information and available ROMs, so none should rely on a single person for a guide or bias.

telus wont activate a sprint ESN. Software on the phone is not a problem
