Hi, I bought an unused Kaiser, but it's a beta testing model. It works fine, aside from a few small annoying hiccups. I tried to flash the rom using the instructions kindly provided on the Wiki. Hard SPL will not work. I get a connection error at the end everytime. I tried running the Factory Shipped ROM form HTC, but an error says that I can't flash using this. Has anyone come across this before? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I didn't know this error but I think every body has get the unlock device using these files in attached.
I hope this will help you to solve this problem.
(Rename the files ".rar")
Ciao.

It makes sense to dump your beta SPL before you install hard-SPL
pmemdump 0x8c000000 0x40000 spl-beta.bin
(pmemdump is part of itsme's itsutils, do a search first)
I did a search for pmemdump, but nothing came up...

I tried the files, thanks for posting them. Still no joy. It just won't finish the sequence.
be careful...
Don't forget that you could ruin the device. Unless someone who knows what they're talking about says to do something, I would consider using the device as is or maybe asking HTC direct (even though that might be of zero help)

Wise advice.
I think it was POF who posted the info for the Hermes pre-production units. Maybe wait until he reads this thread. I won't say pm him because I expect he gets thousands of personal requests for help.
This link (for info only) shows how HERMES pre-production units were flashed - basically using the SD card method. It might be worth trying SD card flashing (link here for Kaiser) - but the instructions need you to be hardSPL first.
Let us know if it works out ok.
Many thanks for the helpful responses and the sound warnings. I have contacted HTC directly, but they weren't very helpful. They sent me detailed instructions on how to "soft" and "hard" reset the device. I'll take your advice and let the thread run for a while. The unit is functioning well, with only minor annoyances. I'll certainly post the outcome, and again, thanks.

yes please dump this...strange you are having problems flashing since most preproduction units are superSPL and arent locked in any sort of way...who did you buy this from who said it was a beta version?

I bought the unit on ebay. The seller said it was a beta, but that it functioned perfectly. When it boots up, the opening screen says "IU BUILD TEST ONLY" over the HTC logo. It also said BETA at the botom right of the home screen, but KarhU helped me to get rid of that with reg edit. The unit does work well, but it's slightly unstable and a few functions, like word completion, don't work at all.

If only we were all so rich... When I first started, I downloaded a WM6 Rom I found on this forum but read nothing... Tried to flash it, phone went to bootloader immediately afterwards and would do nothing else. I called T-Mobile and they sent me to the place on T-Mobile.com where I could get the official Rom download and was able to restore my MDA to life again but not until I had read about 20 different threads, did I attempt it again.
Thats the problem with some people here. They don't read and just assume that because they're a Software Dev that they automatically know everything or think that because they're pretty computer savvy that they know what they're doing or think that because they had their device for a few months that they're automatically an expert... It's annoying to tell you the truth because the only real way to learn is through a lot of reading, or trial and error and thats how everyone here has to learn.
I read this forum for a few MONTHS before I flashed my device, and I'm glad I did. Not only do you have to READ the information, but you also have give it time to SINK IN so that it is fully understood.
There are some people who automatically cry out for help without expending any effort (NOOBE needs help! give me a link, fix this, WAA WAA). And then there are the ones who make this a great forum, they READ READ and REREAD, TEST and RETEST and generally provide knowledge, information and assistance.
All of us are riding on the backs of the mostly unsung developers Like Faria, Bepe and all the others.

Why the hell do you want Underground????!!!!!!!!
It's old, unstable and has soooo many bugs that have all been resolved in recent ROMs. Have you just had the forum on pda view then jumped at the first WM6 ROM post from the early days?
I'm not interested with the Underground WM6 but when MB_WM6 did not work, i thought of trying that.
I have a question here, i tried installing MB_WM6 and it stopped at 95%, later i tried to install Faria's kitchen ROM and it was successful. I tried unlocking the CID with lokowiz03. Do u people still feel that my phone is still CID locked.

Download WST tool and run it,it'll give all the info about your phone to determine the present status of your phone,only than it can be confirmed if it's cid locked or unlocked.
btw,faria's kitchen is for cooking the custom rom according to your own needs,it contains the Base Rom,OEM,RUU... and tools to build a rom.Did you cook your own Rom and flashed ?

Well said my friend... This is is how it should be. I think there should be a rule that have to be a member for so many weeks before you can even post and access download links on the forum... This should give you time to read before you make a mistake and brick your phone...
Thanks....i will surely search for WST tool. If u could post the link of the WST tool that will be of great help.

hey Guyz. I have a Tilt that a customer gave me that got bricked while trying to flash one of dutty's roms...Problem is that the genius didn't load up Hard SPL even tho he told me that he did...now He wants me to fix it...even tho he didn't follow my instructions and read the WiKi...I kno that on the Hermes it was able to be unbricked. Is the same for the Kaiser possible? I would greatly appreciate your help as my customers are loving the work you guyz do here in nyc..
Thanks in Advance!
Cristian
What is the current status of the phone?
Can you get into the bootloader at all?
If you can get to the bootloader you should be able to load the AT&T AKU v0.4.4 ROM (the unoffical upgraded AT&T ROM). Once you get that loaded you should flash HardSPL immediately.
Let me know how it goes...
Cheers.
I bricked my tilt when it was less than 24 hours old... I recovered it with a BETA of the ATT rom and THEN redoing the hardspl thingy - worked a treat.
Do a search for tolt bricked and you should find afew threads for it.
The rom is called something like RUU_Kaiser_ATT_WWE....._Internal.exe
It goes to the Tri-Color Screen but stays there..I'll go ahead and research it so I can find the original AT&T and load it up...It shows a lot..workin for at&t and being a member on xda...U guyz have no idea how ya make life easier for my tilt customers b/c at&t truly dropped the ball on the rom...and by offering alternatives..u make the user experience so much better...thanks!

If you are at the bootloader screen (Tri-Color) then the phone is not bricked. In the sticky at the top on how to revert back for warranty replacement, it has links for the various roms. Just flash an official AT&T rom on it and you should be good to go. Then do the HardSPL.
Cool that you work for AT&T and hang out here! If you have any other warranty returns, I can give you my address as I wouldn't mind having a backup or two...
BTW: The AT&T ROM for the Tilt is actually quite good in the big picture of things. At least the phone is usable (slower than it should be and less memory than it should have, but its still very usable and stable on the official rom). If you want to ***** about official roms, go back to the 8125 and its official rom. The while the device (at the time) was great, that rom made the phone almost worthless (super slow, battery problems, bad radio, dropped calls, freezing, etc). I can't tell you how many people that run custom roms on the Wizard just can't believe what that phone is actually capable of.
Ok, sorry, got off topic there...
does Hard-SPL needs to be flashed just once on a device or does it need to be installed every tome a new ROM is going to be Flashed onto it?

ActiveSync will not recognize your device when in BootLoader mode!
The Vendor ID error means the ROM cannot be loaded on the Tilt without HardSPL. You need an original Tilt ROM. (That's what I think about this)

Oddly enough the "Original" Tilt ROM will not install on a Tilt that does not already have HardSPL on it (to spell it out for you, the CID of the ROM does not match the Tilt's stock SPL). If you check the "reverting back" sticky you'll find all this info already, though it is deep in the thread.
The AKU v.0.4.4 ATT Beta ROM does have the correct CID and will flash on a stock Tilt. SO that is what you are forced to resort to at this point. Once you get the beta ROM installed you can (and probably should) install HardSPL.
After all that, if you decide you want to return or warranty the phone follow the "revert" thread to restore it to "stock" form.
Some additional notes on your problem...
ActiveSync will not connect in Bootloader mode (this is expected). You should see a device show up in Device Manager however, I can't recall the exact description however.
quick flash procedure:
put phone in bootloader
connect usb cable
install ROM
FYI, the problem may not be a bricked tilt... you could try Pof's fix which involves using MTTY.exe to boot the phone, depending on how your "customer" tried to flash it it may just need a kick in the pants to restore it. (search Pof's SSPL for the Kaiser thread for instructions, the thread was closed so you will have to look deep).
<climbing on my soapbox>
Lastly... your use of the word "customer" concerns me... are you charging people for the work you do to their phones? If so, do you donate to the people who make it possible? I'm probably just misunderstanding you, but if you're profiting from others work, perhaps you should contribute (especially if you're coming here to ask for help).
</climbing down>
Good Luck!
Cheers.
Customers as in I work for an AT&T corporate owned Retail location and they have bought Tilts from me. They kno my Tilt has been modded and they usually want to do the same. I don't charge them for doing mods to their Tilts. This still remains a community where we help each other and I cherish that. Greed has no place here.

That's cool... my misunderstanding then. Hopefully no hard feelings .
All in all it sounds like the guy wants a custom ROM so you should probably get the ATT Beta ROM and install that. And then install HardSPL.
Check Kyphur's second post in the thread below for the ROM you want.

@kaal,
It seems what you want to do is a HARD RESET. Please visit Kaiser Wiki and read through. You'll know your phone better that way.

Because of you folks and this thread, I have a working device as opposed to a paperweight...Thanks!!!
Hi,
Was changing the ROM on my Kaiser, using JUMPspl as I had got the white screen using Hardspl. During the upgrade got an error at about 18%, went through the recovery procedure only to get back to the Bootloader screen with the screen saying
SPL-1.93.0000
I think it should say something different here!
At the moment can only get the the tri-colour bootloader screen with usb at the bottom.
Please any help would be much appreaciated.
Thanks
If you are at the tri-color bootloader screen, reflash a ROM.
that's where the process starts at anyhow,the bootscreen.
But doesn't the SPL have to be either Hardspl or jumpSPL.
I have tried to do the rom update again but sticks on 0% and gives error 262

Not advisable if he has the default SPL still though which by the number appearing at the tri col screen it appears to be the case.
Try doing a hard reset and see if it boots into the original ROM then at least you will find out if it is bricked or not, however, i'm not sure it will work based on the fact you got part way through in the first place.
Hold down the keys directly next to the Send and End (green and Red) Hold in the stylus and keep them all held untill you get a screen telling you to press the green (send) key.
Tried the hard reset, takes me back into the bootloader. Any other ideas?
Hmm... ok then.... you are pretty much looking at a very expensive paperweight at this moment in time then.
Look at this thread...it "may" (i'm not promising anything but it may point you in the right direction) help you out. Let us know how it goes.

Hate to joint the parade, but the exact same thing happened here - 18% now stuck at 1.93.0000
For anyone else reading this BEFORE flashing a new ROM please read, read and read again EVERYTHING related to flashing on this site, wikis and wherever else you can get info.
Another idea for you. Search around here for how to flash from an SD card that may solve the issue out for you. As previously noted though....READ READ READ and be 110% certain you understand what you are doing before you do anything.

MTTY will at least give you a USB connection to the device it is worth a shot given your current situation.
There is hope!
I did a clean reboot of my PC and disabled my antivirus (avast) and was able to sucessfully reflash the new 1.62 rom (released from ATT site today).
Thanks will try the new 1.62 rom.
What commands can you use with MTTY?
tried the At&t rom gives me an error on the vendor id. Will try a HTC rom
I have tried multiple roms and they all give me the same error Error 294:Invalid Vender ID
Any ideas
Am starting to get worried because if the misses finds out that I have bricked the new phone, I am up to my neck i it.
If you are stuck in boot loader & would like some help via MSN Messenger, please PM me or look for me on MSM messenger at [email protected]. I will be available to help later this evening or tomorrow morning.

Invalid Vendor I.D. is cuz it's locked.
Had the exact issue myself and found a ATT ROM that will boot. It saved me bigtime, so I saved it. It's in one of the posts on one of the threads but I have the actual ROM, it'll overide that lock.- PM me if ya need it.
Got the same solution, Holy S**t about to have a heart attack. Tried nearly ever ROM out there, it was the Asia one that got me going.
Lesson learned: make sure you Hardspl after jumpspl.
Thanks for all the help folks
Glad ya got it fixed. One quick question?
Is your original ROM ATT or HTC ?
It is a HTC ROM. Done My Hardspl and got Sleuth v3.0 on it already
Happy days
As the title says, I seriously think I am just being stupid. But I have just spent the last 5 hours searching, trying, and just about anything I can. But I can't seem to get anything to work.
Now on to my situation:
I just got a new Tilt, it is not my first. My first one was when it first came out for AT&T. So it was still the WM6Pro and I SIM CID and HardSPL'd it. So I do know how to do this stuff. Just now with this new one, it must be a newer one, because it came with WM6.1 on it.
Here is what I know I have on it. Bootloader shows this.
KAIS1*0
SPL-3.56.0000
CPLD-8
And this is when the AT&T logo pops up.
R 1.65.21.18
G 25.88.40.05H
D 3.57.00.00
Now the first thing I am trying to do is HardSPL it.
I swear I have tried everything.
First thing I tried was the simple, Kaiser SIM/CID Unlocker & Changer , I start with the Flash-HardSPL and get to the Bootloader saying USB with the Rom updater showing the status bar. Then with the phone still in bootloader, I get Error [260] : Connection, The Update Utility cannot connect to your PDA. and so on.
So I exit that. Go on to the next try.HardSPL v3.07-3.56
All of them end up as the same result as the first. But I will explain what V3.28 as I have heard and read that that is one of the best ones to use.
Get to bootloader, Computer monitor shows status bar, and phone shows status bar. And I wait for it to do anything and then maybe a minute or two it gives me an error. Error [262] : Update Error, The ROM Update Utility has encountered communication errors during the update process. and so on for recovery.
I've also tried to do the HTC Kaiser Hard-SPLv1 - CID Unlock & Flash any ROM to your device (4 free)
When I start this one up it gets me to my screen being completely white. and I can not continue after that without taking the battery out and starting the phone again.
I have also tried other things that I just cant remember right now, cause I have been trying to do this for so many hours, and downloaded so many different things. So if you can and may help me, anything and everything will be appreciated beyond the gratitude I can give. Once again, I do know what I am doing, but I do not know what I am doing ARGHHH! lol.
I think you need JumpSPL1.56-KAIS, then hardspl , Im assuming this because you didnt say you did this step in your post.

pretty sure you have to downgrade to 6.0. Its been a while though and i could be wrong. also try this you should always be security unlocked

I tried that one, and for 2nd poster, I did try that also. Sorry for not listing. But I still appreciate the help guys.
I was also thinking I had to go back to 6.0 but I went 55 pages back on this section of the forum, and I still cant find it. I'm still looking, but it seems like a dead end to me. =/
there was a guy having this issue a while back, look in the white screen thread towards the end! I will see what I can find for you!
Right now I found a 6.0 ATT rom, so I got that to work, now I will try unlocking it, thank you guys, and thanks to this post (70+ pages back!) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326933
Edit 1 :
Alright I got it back down to 6.0, but yet I still cant do anything with HardSPL, CID, or Security. If anyone has any solutions I will listen! Even if its bashing my head against anything! LOL! Sucks!
downgrade I don't believe is necessary

Nope, I didn't have to. My tilt came with 6.1. I had some problems, ended up switching to an XP laptop, was using Vista(prem. sp-whatever). It's too late here, but maybe tomorrow I can figure out what I did, but I think the main thing was using a windows XP pro machine - don't know if it needed to be pro, but that's what I had. Thereafter I've used the vista machine without problem. Good luck.

Meh, you need to use JumpSPL first. I've had this happen before, and JumpSPL cleared it right up for me.
I think Jocky has a few you can use. Check his HardSPL thread.
I first tried to use Vista, but then went back to my xp machine.
Edit :
I've tried to the JumpSPL but had major brain damage last night. trying it again with a fresh day. Will let you know.
Just got it, thanks guys. I apologize for just being completely brain dead. But I really am happy that you guys helped out. I finally got it flashed with the HardSPL It was really easy now. I just could not remember how to get to the file explorer. And the JumpSPL 1.56 worked. Thanks!
Yeah, well I can NEVER find anything via search here. Hell, to prove that point, I just typed "stupid" in the subject search line and found: NOTHING!!! I don't know what the deal is, but I've just pretty much given up searching this site.
Which leads to more reading than I'd typically care to do.

Glad to hear you got it fixed.
Awesome, fully got it unlocked and everything! Thanks for telling me what I might have missed and messed up on!
Hi,
I'm quite new to xda-developers (*collective groaning at the newbie, I'm sure*); what happens to phones here is rather astounding, though, and I'd certainly be willing to make a small donation to anyone that can help .
My problem is as follows: I have an HTC Touch (an Elfin; I can post my device info if necessary), and I'd like to try upgrading the ROM (I've gotten Onyx 5.01 from the forums; it looks excellent). This alone isn't (shouldn't) be a problem for me, but my Touch has, I believe, lost a few pins in it's extUSB port over the years, and will not connect to Mobile Device Centre/ActiveSync through the USB port. I can connect through Bluetooth just fine... but certain expected problems arise from flashing a ROM over Bluetooth . So, what I really need to know, in fairly well explained steps, is: how can I (safely) flash my ROM using the microSD card?
I apologize in advance for any incorrect/misplaced terminology; feel free to correct/rebuke

Search the stickeys. There are step by step instructions available
Can you give me a link to an appropriate thread/section of a thread? I've been rooting around all day, and I can't find anything that describes my situation; every guide I've found gets to a certain point and then tells you to "connect your device via USB..." - is there no way around a broken USB connection?

Soon, I will flashing my Elfin with this method. And I'm asking me if I must let the same name for the rom (ELF0IMG.nbh) or an other name. Can someone tell me if I must change or if it'sd OK with this name ?
Thanks.
PS : Sorry for eventually write error, I'm french.

Ok, thanks, I'd seen that before, but it tells me about an "Invalid Certificate" when I get to the rebooting part... which means my device is not CID unlocked, correct? Is there any way to CID unlock my Elfin without a USB connection?
Thanks again for the help

yes, the name must be that one, or the flash process wont start.

mmm... thats a problem because to cid unlock u must follow the white screen method. im pretty sure u might be able to get to the white screen by hand but not sure how u will flash it then.
another posibility is flashing the unbricker rom (by sd) and then i guess u can re-flash the spl by sd too.
anyway, im not sure. maybe aman or cmonex can help u with this.
Invalid Certificate too
Does the data in the SD card get deleted after flashin the ROM via SD card..???
no, it doesn't
