I ran it according to farias instructions I thought. It flashed but now I cant install anything and I cannot write to the storage card or the phone, any cab i try to install is unsuccessful and I cannot save any files to the storage card or the phones memory.
And it appears that I cannot flash the rom again. Am I screwed?
What is you IPL / SPL? IS your phone a G3 or G4? Can you get to the bootloader? (turn off your phone (pull the battery if you have to) then hold the camera key down while you turn it on). You can flash directly to the bootloader (even though activesync won't connect.
BTW: If this stuff makes you nervous, you probably shouldn't be cooking... Your phone will do all sorts of weird stuff when you screw up a build. And you should really know how to recover from most things that can happen...
I have done this before, this is the first time I have ever had a problem. my IPL/SPL is 2.26. And the phone is unlocked.

ok, cool... wasn't sure... So can you get to the bootloader?
yes I can get to it
I am flashing back to the t-mobile 2.26 rom. Working so far, I will leave the cooking alone. Can you recommend a good wm6 rom that doesnt have any problems?
"doesn't have problems" is the catch
I'm partial to my own Crossbow Reloaded ones, but they aren't perfect. If you don't hit the keypad issue with 1.7 though, its pretty close
Core 2.0n is very good and nice and clean.
Also NBD and Wizard Mobile 6 are both supposed to work well.
The new "official" rom we are playing with is beta, but I have to say its really fast and we aren't seeing much wrong with it (but its only been 12 hours since its been released). There are a couple of issues that are fixed with cabs (CommManager for one).
As for cooking, you probably eith had something wrong in a .rgu or somesuch. Just takes a number of builds and flashes to get it right to where it boots (then you debug what you forgot in packages and start over )
I download all the crossbow roms and they load fine but when i actually install them its just looks like WM6.
Both SPL and the other one are 2.26 any ideas ?
Did you flash to a carrier ROM? Always flash to a carrier ROM before flashing a custom ROM.
ok giving that a try with the RUU offical tmobile rom
doesnt look like that worked either
Exactly which ROMs are you trying to install? Are you certain the ROMs are custom WM5 ROMs? You are in the WM6 forum, so I expect any ROMs you get from here will be WM6 ROMs.
ive done just about all of them is there any other reason I cant get this to work ?
ive been at it for like 5 hours and its pisssssing me off (sorry).
You guys helped me unlock the phone now i just gotta get WM6.
thanks for the help so far!

So, it looks like WM6? That means you have WM6.
Of course, you've read and followed all of the instructions on how to unlock and flash a custom ROM, right?
does anyone have a mirror for the love rom? im going to start it from scratch
so im pretty sure ive screwed myself pretty good now im using the shell tool to flash the rom and it looked like it was working then it told me to hard reset my phone so i poped the battery out because nothing else was working now it wont boot paste the tmobile screen. Also the software tells me to hold down voice + wireless manager and then the reset button and wait for instructions but i never receive anything at all.
Can you guys please help me asap i need to at least get the phone working for tomorrow morning
- Eddy
well it looks like ive bricked the device because it cant boot to even WM5 its just stuck on the tmobile screen and therefore cant connect to activesync so i cant even flash it back to a working rom.
Any help would be so great at this point because im DOOMED without this phone ... i mean it even wakes me up in the morning hahaha
kind regards,
- Eddy
u have to put it into bootloader mode by pressing and holding the camera button and quickly pressing the reset button until the red, green, and blue screen appears. Then you should be able to flash back to an original rom
ok so i started all over again super cid unlocked many times and started with the base 2.26 and now i cant even get the WM6 roms on the phone they all freeze at 99% (vs loading the rom with the old wm5 look).
any ideas guys?
have you tried using shelltool? I've used it numerous times on my locked g4 without problems
I am in dire need of some help when it comes to flashing custom ROMs. It appears that I can no longer flash custom ROMs. I can successfully flash the official 1.62 ROM from HTC website, the dumped TILT ROM, the Kaiser dumped ROM, and the WM6.1 WWE 3.03.405.0_radio_sign_25.70.40.02_1.64.06.04, but any other ROM I can’t. Let me explain my meaning of not being able to flash a ROM. Once it flashes 100% and reboots, when the “Tap the screen to begin to set up your windows-mobile device” is supposed to be displayed, all I get is a blank white screen. If I touch my stylus to the screen the text shows up, but none of the colored pictures that suppose to be in the back ground. Every section of the setup just displays the text no background images. Even my today screen won’t display any background images.
Does anyone have any information on this? I’ve abused this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314615 like a cheap dirty whore trying to find a solution, but no avail. Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.

For each ROM, when ever I flashed, it changed my radio. For instance Alex's 1.62 rom, when I flashed his ROM, it already to changed my radio to the need radio to 1.27.14.09

some come with radios, but most dont. You have to be sure if you need an AT$T specific radio or not.

When I was running the WM6.1 3.03 ROM with radio 1.64.X.X, I flashed to Alex 1.62 ROM and my radio changed to 1.27.X.X. Didn't this flash change my radio?

yes, if those are the only two flashes you have done, then it sounds like you might have had the unfortunate luck of having a bad flash. Reflash again and see what happens.
Edit:
Did you also do a hard reset at the "tap here to begin screen alingment" screen? If not, always do so.

I always hard reset when flashing new roms (learned alot in the kasier wiki). This is what I'm trying. Flashing to ATT 1.62 (Offical from HTC website) > manually flashing to 1.27.04.09 radio > Flashing to Alex's 1.62 ROM
Anyone else have any suggestions?
I have a few ideas that I think may help. PM me when you get a moment. It may Late saturday or sunday till I can get back to you, but I need to know a coupl of things. So, if you're still stuck, let me know.

Check out the ROM Upgrading section of the Kaiser wiki under 'Troubleshooting' to learn how to enter bootloader mode.
Assuming that you installed HardSPL the first time you flashed, once you've booted into this mode, reconnect your device to your USB cable and flash another ROM.
For those who haven't looked at the Kaiser wiki in a while, I've completely revamped it w/TOC pages to make it alot easier to use (shameless plug)

?? This is not my issue. I'm not a complete beginner when it comes to flashing. Ever since I flashed the WM6.1 3.03 ROM I haven't been able to flash a custom ROM without having an image problem. I can still flash OEM type ROMS without the image issue, but not custom ROMS. I have the problem with images once a custom ROM has been flashed. If more clarification of problem is needed, I am will to give it.
This may be extreme and largely untested, but have you tried 'clear storage' on the WM6.1 ROMs and chosen 'delete NAND' (or something to that effect)?
That should wipe your ROM memory clean, although I'm not sure if that would help or hinder your cause, as I haven't heard anyone try it yet...
Hope this helps!

No, I haven't tried, but I guess I'll give it try when I get back in town on thursday.
Sorry I had to bug out....
Alex, his problem is a little different than a RUUBNH error that's commonly seen. I tried walking him through a CE reset using MTTY & he can't even communicate with his bootloader. MTTY wouldn't establish a USB connection. I agree that formating the Nand may help, but I think you really should also try & reflash hardspl as well. I suggest the new version with AT command support. I have seen a few funky hardspl flashes that inhibit communication, although rare.
I didn't forget you though Kjones, & I'm trying to duplicate your problem & find an answer.
Hi I'm not new to PDA but i'm new to flashing and roms and stuff.
I have a HTC tytn 2 whit an english (UK) rom on it (no brand the real one from HTC itself). I want to have an dutch rom after some browsing and a bit of reading i stumble upon some things that would be great if it worked. But i'm actully a little to scared to try stuff (600 € is not a toy to play with and you need to be sure doing stuff right). So what i know so far is that i need a NL rom i have chosen this one NoThrills_WM61_NLD_V3 i dont like the branded things so NO thrills. So then i read that i need to HardSPL the thing. So i run it, guess what white screen, no problem as i've read further i need to use the jumpspl instead so i run it and the i get the Tri-color. Now what i don't know is what i need to do next. Cause in the other tutorial they use this program to run the "PDA Phone ROM Update Utility" whit the exe file. I'm stuck here. What do i need to do now to get the rom onto the device or do i need to do it another way?
Thanks in advance.

No expert here - the WIKI is your friend.
The jumpspl is there only to get you past the white screen. You STILL need to HARDSPL your phone or you will brick it.
The white screen problem only adds another step to what you need to do.
You really need to go and read and re-read until you are sure of what you are doing or you will need GSLEON3.
So - an overview of what you need to do:
1. get past the white screen - (using jumpspl) and then put HARDSPL on your phone - DO NOT PROCEED until you can see either OLIPOF or JOCKY on your boot screen.
2. once you have hardspl installed you are going to want to flash your phone - frequently a radio comes with the flash - other times it does not and you will have to pick a radio to flash.
Trust me this is worth it in the long run - but it will raise your blood pressure - no go get your asbestos suit on and read!

waiting for a mod to close this thread as it is redundant.
if u read the jumpspl thread it clearly tells u what to do next.
Redundant thread.
Please read the WIKI and _Alex_ Sticky. It has all the information that you need.
Looks like the post in this thread alone should answer your question.
Hello guys...
Iam not new, and i have already flashed my first(it was wasted not by my fault)KAISER, it was one year ago and i did it with HARDSLPv1, and lately added some new roms cooked by sakajati(respect)...
Yesterday i bought new one(but one year old) so i tried to flash him as well, i have used HARDSPL 1.93, and then i tried to put Sakajati"s 4th feb ROM, but i come across one big trouble, everytime i try to put it on i encounter the same RUU error:
ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR
This error occurs during the CE ROM code upgrade process. Solution: If this happens, you can just soft-reset the device and run RUU again. The update process will then continue. Note: At this stage, the Wince is destroyed; instead, it is in upgrade mode.
what to do...????
i am very afraid that i destroyed my Kaiser...???
what it means that Wince is destroyed...
Please help me, i am desperate...
Iam not new,
Click to expand...

But the solution could be found here (search)
If you see the tri color screen everythng is ok, just win mobile is destroyed. Try to flash a rom from your sd card
Thank you very much...
I hope it will work, i really did search for about an hour and tried to put rom on sevral times, but i didnt find nothing 100% secure, i dont want to indanger the unit any more that i did...
thanks again, i will try it tommorow morning at my job, thats where my SD card is...

Part of the problem is that 1.93 is a jump spl and should be used to upgrade to Hard spl 3.29 or 3.56, not as an spl on its own. You need to run jump spl 1.93 from your device and make sure you are connected to your computer, when you see the bootloader you need to unplug your USB, count to 10 and plug your USB back in then flash a hard spl to your phone! Again 1.93 is not a Hard Spl by itself, it is only a middle man to flash a Hard Spl.
I think the best would be to flash a stock rom at first, cause therefore you don't need an other bootloader. Then flash Hardspl (3.29 if you have a kaiser or 3.56 if you have a tilt) and then flash any rom you want
i obviusly have a lot to learn, mate how do I asses if I have TILT or KAISER, what is the main difference...
[email protected]: i have already DL the stock rom before i posted the tread, i hoped on that resolution if there were no answer...
in about 10 hours from now i will get my hands on my tilt/kaiser and hope to arranged the mess i done; I drop by in any case at that time and notify you about condition and my successes...
p.s.:sorry for my poor english...

It realy doesnt make that much of a difference, I have a tilt and I use 3.29 and I would recomend it to anyone over 3.56 so flash either one, they will both work! And your english is great so no need to say sorry!

A Tilt is a At$T branded Kaiser, a TyNT II is a HTC branded Kaiser. Tilt has a different keyboard and OEM rom., only differences. People say use 3.56 if you have a Tilt because that is an AT$T Spl, but I use 3.29 on My Tilt and it works great so it doesn't really matter.
hey...
nothing seems to work...
I have tried to put default rom dl from here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_ROMs but the problem is that it is not bootable from SD, that has to be because the USB conection isnt on (i selected the 3.34.721.2) so i given up that way
Then i flashed the HARD spl 3.29(have kaiser) via SD steb by step first with this instruction: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433835; and it dint go through
so i tried with this instruction: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=420683
it didnt work either, they are the same I know(noticed later);
So problem is that i stuck at WHITE screen that says "LOADING..."
nothig else...???
finally i manage to load/boot the htc rom from xda-wiki site, but i have to chose another one

Hey man, nice to see that your device rewakes, you can flash every rom from sd card, simply rename the nbh file to kaisimg.nbh than restart into bootloader and it will automatically take the one from the card
Unfortanly, althought i would like you to be right, you are not. When i tried to do it via SD, i stuck at white screen saying LOADING...(blue) and nothih further... and i tried also the Cmonex_s Hard SPL3.29_SD which also stucks at same screen
So now (after updatig with default rom) that i have basicly normal working device i startet from the top. Using @mskip"[email protected] tutorial called: Flasing your first rom (for noobs); it all goes well, till i start to update RUU(sakajati 4 feb) if it matters, and i tried both (spls 1.56 and 1.93), it stops updatig at 17% and notrhin else then works just puting back the HTC default rom from wikiXDA side(thank god for that)
i am thinking of MTTY, although i dont know what it does guys here almoste all say it fix bad rom flash, but i am not sure if thats my main problem, i rahter think it has something with spls...
if someone has some good advice i will be very grateful...

Hi,
I couldn´t flash my Kaiser via SD at the first time and tried something that worked.
The SD´s are formatted in Fat16 usually, try to format to Fat32... It seems like a stupid thing, but worked for me.
Reagards and good luck.
SD must be formated FAT32, to work, also I sugest a smal card, 512 or something like that, SHDC usual doesn't work
I have 1GB SD and its not shdc, so thats ok.and i have done it right now, like you two guys said so i formated it with FAT32 but still no succes.
I guess that this tree lines in red/green/blue screen arent right:
KAIS130
SPL-3.02.0000
CPLD-8
i thing this SPL has to da something to do with all this mess a have done
I have flashed a couple of roms( i had three devices) and i flashed a few for my friends and all was OK till now, and i dont know what else to do...

Yes, you still have a stock spl on there. It needs to be hard spl'd before you flash anymore. Check out the stickies at the top of the forum.
hi again...
Well, I respect the "rules" of forum, thats why i wouldnt ask for insructions that are already written(thanks for the authors) with that i mean stickys, because i read them, almost all...
But I still tried once again, and I came across the same thing, i stuck at 17% when loading RUU or if i choose the VIA SD i stuck at white screen with blue text saying (LOADING...)...
nothing else helps than loading the dafault ROM by HTC... as i already said once again...
if i manage to solve the problem i will be in touch; what do you thing about MTTY
Edit 1:
i have done everything as it says in the instruction, and just like some of you "replyed" me...
but i always stuck at 17%when loading RUU, when i flash it with SPL 1.56 or 1.93 i never get stuck at white screen it always apeare the mentioned SPLs nimbers and some other text in yellow but when i then load RUUs i stuck at excatly 17% nothing less nothing more
edit 2:
