How to fix trashed bootloader? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

All,
Somehow my bootloader got trashed while swapping memory cards and I'd like to easiest fix to get it going again. (At Tri-Color screen) If I plug it in and run RUU_Kaiser_Cingular_WWE.exe (I'm running nonbloat Tilt rom) it'll start the upgrade, stop at about 1%, but the phone will boot and everything is there. So I'm just looking for a quick way to make it stick so I don't have to do that anymore..
I'll play with cooked ROMs soon, everything is working GREAT for the time being and I don't wanna reinstall!
Thanks all!

Doesn't sound like you have HardSPL installed but this should fix your problem (at least your issue sounds very similar) ... after you get it fixed you should consider installing HardSPL.
Credit to pof for the instructions below which were part of his now dead SSPL thread for Kaiser:
For those of you had the phone stuck in bootloader mode after flash with SSPL stopping at 16%, follow these instructions to unbrick your phone:
1. Download mtty.exe
2. Disable activesync (connection settings -> uncheck "allow usb connections")
3. Connect your Kaiser to PC using USB cable.
4. Open mtty, select USB port and click OK.
5. Hit ENTER twice, you should see the "Cmd>" prompt.
6. Type the command "boot", you should see something like this:
Code:
Cmd> boot
InitDisplay: Display_Chip=1
No card inserted
OSSIReadBack ++
Read SI data from flash success
tail signature match
Checksum match
UserStorageSIPreload ++
After that device should boot WM6 again, you can now re-enable USB connections in activesync and flash HardSPL

Good Luck

Ahhh!
I didn't find it in the Kaiser forum, but in the Hermes wiki!
Seems that I just had to connect via mtty (to USB, not a COM port! ) then just issue a: set 14 0
Then did a soft reset and all was well!
Back in business!
Now, maybe I'll start playing with some ROMS!
Thanks again!

should've read further. You'd of seen my post on Different SPL's & their different command capabilities.
For 1.93 SPL you can issue cmd>task 8
You need to install hardSPL once you get it going, because you DON'T have it know.

Thanks for your response GSLEON3
I followed your instructions and used the Task 8 command for the 1.93 SPL
The device turn off and comes back to the same Tri - color screen with RUUNBH on top right. Tried flashing Hard-SPL stuck on 0%. Please help

HTC bricked? No HardSPL, no flash-hardSPL

Dear all,
got a problem with flashing my TyTN II which might? be related to the
"brand new" version?
here is what happened so far:
we bought several German TyTN II pro and
some of them need to be convert to english rom
Version:
Radio: 1.27.12.32
HardSPL did not install (White Screen) so I went for JumpSPL. Software installed with no problem, "USB" appeared on screen, unplugged and replugged the cable
The TyTN Display is three-colored,
USB connected direct to PC,
AvtiveSync stopped
starting flash-hardSPL\KaiserCustomRUU.exe
starts up,
some "caution" messages read and understood,
TyTN connected,
battery charged,
Software says:
"Verifying the information on your PDA Phone... please wait..."
"Current information about your PDA Phone:
Image Version: [* this part is empty *]
Select from below:
[Update] Update the current ROM version.
KLICK on Update:
From: Image Version [* again no information *]
To: Image Version: HardSPL-kaiser
klick 'Next' to proceed
*Warning message*
KLICK on Next:

Please do not remove the USB connection from the PDA Phone or launch
any program during the update process:

*STUCK at 0%
PC says: ERROR [262]: Update error, The ROM Update Utility has encountered communication errors during the update process. The program will guide you step-by-step to recover from the errors .....
After recover, I once again end up with my three-colored-screen

I am able to connect via mtty.exe,

Having read most of the threads here i continued using mtty with
Cmd> boot
Command error!!!
Cmd> task 8
The pda boots again to my beloved three-colored-screen
Any escape from this? Or am I damned stupid ....
Cheers,
Martin
The
Try once more the boot command in MTTY and, if it again enters bootloader, once more. Usually it must be done two times.
no way, as "boot" only says "Command error" a million times ...
Exactly the same thing happened to me Everyone here shouts about flashing HardSPL first (and then it's "impossible to brick your phone"). Unfortunately, people rarely mention that the phone can be bricked whilst trying to flash HardSPL!
With mine, I did initially receive an error when using the 'boot' command, however when I did the following, it worked:
- uncheck 'allow usb connections' in activesync
- get the phone into the tri-color screen and plug the usb cable in
- start mtty, select usb
- issue the 'boot' command (without ANY other commands being issued before it)
Does the tri-color screen say RUUNBH in the top corner? Apparently, some have recovered their phones by flashing a ROM from their original vendor (e.g. if you got yours from HTC, try the base HTC ROM). This never worked for me, I just got the 'stuck at 0%, then error 262' behaviour you describe above.
still stuck... what i did:
- use mtty to issue the boot command : Command error
- use different Shipped ROM Images : wrong version whilst updating

anyone got a german 1.56.407.3, radio 1.27.12.32 shipping version?

So I am running out of ideas. If I got everything right, the ONLY chance
to re-animate it is to get the one and only original rom setup version?

It's very unfortunate your SPL doesn't support the "boot" command
Find a rom with CID = HTC__102 and ModelID = KAIS13000
You can find these values with a hexeditor in the RUUsigned.nbh (extract it from an original rom update)
You can rename RUUsigned.nbh to KAISIMG.nbh and put it on SD card. Just enter the bootloader and flashing will start. But it also checks if CID and ModelID match with your device.
Thanks alot, but:
Error [262]: Update Error
and its a KaiserCustomRUU which I thought only works o.k. if
HardSPL was applied correctly ?

I´ve got a second, working, perfect TyTN with the matching rom image. any chance to read out the ROM and use that one to boot?
I followed the thread about ROM extraction, but it says I need HardSPL to unlock, otherwise it will not be able to update ?
Same problem!!!!

Same problem here with my brand new TyTN II... Please help! i got it just one day
I am looking for an answer too. It seems that from 1.82.00.00, there is another layer of protection against JumpSpl. My experience is you need the original Rom to flash back, which works for me. Although you do not have the rom you desire but at least you unbrick you phone.

Serious problem unlocking (Stuck at Tri screen Hard SPL)

Hi All,
I have been trying to unlock my T-Mobile MDA Vario 3, after repeated trials I managed to copy SSPL-KAIS.exe onto the Device, started it, then unpug and plug back the USB.
Then I followed the instructions and the flash update process started, this went up till 95% complete, then it failed with an update error.
Now when I reboot the device I get a tri colous display which says the following by the top left hand corner:
Kais 130
SPL-1.56.0000
CPLD-8
At the bottom it says Serial, then if a USB is connected, it sasys USB. If I try to run the flash again, this time around it is stuck at 0% and eventually returns an update error.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Please ask in the thread discussing the unlock method you are using.

Kaiser Flah SSPL 16% and it stops!!!

I tried it also to flash to another rom. But at 16% it stops and i dont now why but i cant repair the rom. When i reboot the kaiser phone he comes directly in bootloader mode.
The do nothing anymore, i tried to flash from sd or mtty. Nothing works.
By mtty, i get the error that the command boot is a false command.
So i think my phone is really ****t up. this is really the firt time in 3 years my phone stops and i cant find solutions on XDA.
I can found only this tread with :
For those of you had the phone stuck in bootloader mode after flash with SSPL stopping at 16%, follow these instructions to unbrick your phone:
1. Download mtty.exe
2. Disable activesync (connection settings -> uncheck "allow usb connections")
3. Connect your Kaiser to PC using USB cable.
4. Open mtty, select USB port and click OK.
5. Hit ENTER twice, you should see the "Cmd>" prompt.
6. Type the command "boot", you should see something like this:
Code:
Cmd> boot
InitDisplay: Display_Chip=1
No card inserted
OSSIReadBack ++
Read SI data from flash success
tail signature match
Checksum match
UserStorageSIPreload ++After that device should boot WM6 again, you can now re-enable USB connections in activesync and flash HardSPL
But it won't work.
I hope somebody can help me a litlle.
Greeting Thetmar.
are you trying to flash a rom using sspl-kais.exe?? and then it got stuck at 16%??
Why you dont use hard spl??
have you read the wiki first before flashing your device??
carefull with mtty...can brick your phone forever
cheers
I'v used mtty ande the command set 16 0.
And my phone is working again perfectly, only i can't get another rom on it!! I't stuck on 0% with all the spl versions. And the computer says 260 communication error.
I think i go back to the shop and ask for another phone.
My buddy has no problem to flash it. And i had the same phone and have bseveral problems.
Many many downloads and software on this site but i think i tryed almost everything.
Already thanks for saving my phone
error 260 is an open port error, you can try changing usb ports, rebooting your pc, turning off firewalls/antivirus
and you still did not answer me, are you using sspl to flash your phone??? i seriously doubt there is anything wrong with the phone.

Hi,
Can you try these steps (from this thread):
kyphur said:
1a. download the attached files
1b. pull out the battery and reinsert it (this step *is* important)
1c. connect your PC to phone with a USB cable
2. REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !!
3. copy JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe to your device and run it (make sure the USB cable is still connected). If you still get a white screen then reset your device and now try JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe
4. after a few seconds "USB" appears on the phone display
5. unplug and replug the usb cable
6. deselect "Allow USB connections" in Activesync connection settings
7. now flash hardSPL (run KaiserCustomRUU.exe from flash-hardSPL.zip on your PC)

what is mtty? Is there something that I can download?I don't know where to begin. The thread you were referring to said For the AT&T Tilt with any SPL below 1.93 the proper sequence for RUUNBH errors is:
cmd> set 16 0

My SPL is 3.02
