I think that's an early Tilt ROM that was "test only" but worked OK - if you aren't having any problems there's no pressing need to change - but there are newer ROM's out there, so read all about how to flash and take the plunge if you like, but read read read first!

If it is an actual AT&T 'Tilt' you own, you may want to try the new ROM release on the US HTC site which should be straight forward for a novice. If you are using another carrier then as the previous poster said, Read as much as you can about ROM upgrading on the WiKi before you even attempt a cooked ROM upgrade.

I wouldn't flash any radio until your device is security unlocked.

Yes it might work...it could also brick your device. It's your call. Just trying to offer some words of wisdom.

Radio 1.19.831.0

Does someone has this radio as radio only??
Wanna try to flash it for the Xperia.

At the moment not, our tolls are not ready to flash roms and thus also not radios.

If you wanna brick your Xperia, then go ahead.
I dont think that Touch HD and Xperia share the same radio rom.

[KITCHEN] Basic ROM kitchen for aspiring Tattoo cooks [PC/MAC]

Hi guys,
Lately I have been developing a kitchen to help ordinary people learn how to build their own ROM on HTC-based Android devices. It allows you to do basic things such as rooting a shipped ROM, adding apps2sd, modifying the task killer memory threshold, etc.
The appropriate settings are now in place to make it work for the Tattoo.
Here is the link to the kitchen:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
Before flashing any ROM from the kitchen, please make a Nandroid backup first of your existing ROM!
Thank you, and enjoy!
oh dsi! Great news for us, thank you for all your works!
I'm downloading
does it work with 2.1 update.zip too ?

If it is a Tattoo ROM, then yes. If not, then it will still boot if you port it, but some things may not work (unless you know how to fix the drivers and resolutions).
Thanks man
Downloading....
Nice to see you again.
thanks buddy... keep up the good work.

I don't have any cooked ROMs coming - this is a Kitchen.
No I have no need to change my radio.... just do a search.. you flash radios just like any update.zip.....
Going back on topic, if any of you are successful in building and flashing a Tattoo ROM - especially one with root enabled - please let us know.
I've built a ROM with root from a stock ROM (extract system/boot.img from windows temp), and my tattoo stucks at "TATTOO"'s screen.
What's wrong dsi ?

Hmm there must be a problem with the kernel base address used when re-packing the kernel. I used 0x2E000000, maybe I am wrong? This value is set in the build_boot_img file.
Could you try 0x19200000 or 0x10000000? Thanks!
I don't know ^^'
How can i help you to make it work ?
Maybe we can ask to tattoo's devs :/

****, now I know what the problem is. It should be 0x2E00000 instead of 0x2E000000. I had one too many zeros! Sorry guys.
