Where is your battery indicator coming from? Standard OS, or have you tried 3rd party ones as well?
What does it show in settings > power?

ok, please send me a url to download this program, however i think this will not solve the problem, but i will try, also please tell me how to backup the extended rom incase that i try to install another rom version, if that may solve the problem
B.Regards
i made a backup of the extended rom, and installed the latest rom available here for the magician, same version number as my old one, and still nothing, battery indicator show 100% and doesnt move
sounds to me like an internel fault of the phone... possibly some grit has entered the phone and damaged the votage sensing cercuit.
Also (not sure about this phone), some devices have a smart battery where there is a small pcb inside it that reports to the phone the batteries serial no, charge level and other ACPI type info. If this is the case, you might try a new battery, it may fix it
Someone correct the above if they know the battery does not contain anything but... well a battery.

Have you performed a hard reset?
Hi,
I have a Tilt 8900 (w/o camera), with the latest AT&T ROM installed (w/o the customizations).
I successfully performed HARD SPL and verified this by entering bootloader.
I then downloaded the French radio fron the radio thread (this radio was reported to work well in my area) and successfully installed it (or so it seemed late last night).
The ZIP file I donwloaded from XDA included an RUU exe file and an NBH file (I think).
I extracted both files to my hard disk, ran the EXE file (its screens look awfully similar to the HARD SPL screens) and the installation went smoothly and quickly, including the final SR.
My Tilt returned to normal functioning (or so it seemed), ie various apps which I used - worked perfectly, and it also synched w/o any problems to my PC.
But then on the way to work I suddenly found that I had no sounds at all, in any app.
Following advice, I performed an HR from start-settings-clear temp, and this did not help (the Tilt still functioned well, though, and I could execute all apps).
I then performed a regular HR (by holding both soft key buttons and pressing the SR).
The HR went well, including screen alignment, date & time setup, etc. Then the phone showed the AT&T animation and the screen where the radio and ROM versions are shown, and then - WHAM- the screen went black!
I pressed the Power button, and the screen I received is filled with colored dots (as if it shows a 3d picture or something), and I obviously can't do anything further.
I repeated this procedure several times, nothins has changed.
I also took out the battery for about 1/2 an hour, no luck.
I'd appreciate any ideas.
Thank you.
What ROM and Radio are you using WM6 or WM 6.1?
If you have just flashed a 6.1 Radio and are not using a 6.1 ROM (or vice versa) you will have no sound.
Have a look at the Kaiser Radio link in my sig it will tell you the Radio Compatability with the OS.
Try flashing another radio, if you can't boot flash from the Bootloader Screen.
Thanks
Dave
If I read your post correctly, and you installed a new Radio ROM but did NOT install an OS ROM, then that is your problem.
The newer AT&T-based ROMs require a matching Radio in order for the sound and camera (n/a in your case) to work. If you want to keep your new Radio, you will need to change your OS ROM also.

Hi Dave,
I have WM6 with the latest AT&T ROM.
The radio I flashed is compatible with WM6 (it's the French radio), but it might not be compatible with the AT&T ROM.
Meanwhile I discovered that I CAN enter bootloader mode, so hopefully this is a recoverable situation.
I understand that I need to enter bootloader mode on the Tilt, enter AS on my desktop PC, in AS I need to remove the checkmark from connections-allow USB connections, connect the Tilt to the sync cable amd then run the RUU EXE file in order to try and reflash the previous radio. Is this correct?
Last, if this fails as well, would I be able to reflash the updated ROM (after entering bootloader mode)?
Anything else I need to do so that I don't totally brick my Tilt?
Thanks.

The times I've flashed through bootloader (and there have been a few!) I've never bothered disabling Activesync - just connect the phone to the USB and run KaiserRUU.exe. It takes a few extra seconds on the "Verifying Info on your device" screens, and then comes up blank in the "Current ROM" section, but I've never had anything fail to flash yet.
I was not aware of this

So this means that I need to revert to my original configuration (ie the updated AT&T ROM) and keep it that way?
I wanted to improve the radio reception, since inside my house I have virtually no reception. And I read several reports in our local PDA forum that this specific radio does improve things.
Also my GPS lost too many times the GPS signal (all of this did not happen with my HW6910).
Thank you.

I'll write here within a couple of hours, after I get home.

If you want to use the other radio, you need to flash a non-AT&T ROM to your device. This is a very simple process, and there are many different ROMs to choose from.
What is the radio version that you want to use? This way I can suggest several upgrade options that will be compatible with it.
It seems that the french radio might be suitable
But basically, at the moment I prefer to stay with the standard AT&T ROMs, minus the customizations.
I read through the Kaiser radios thread. Several radios are non-optional since they are only for WM6.1. Other radios are older than the one that came with the newest AT&T ROM (can't remember the ROM version).
I do understand that the radio selection process is somewhat a trial and error process, but I'm concerned that I might have some serious problem while trying, and I don't really have that much time to play with this. And as it is, I still don't know that I'm out of the woods with my current problem.
I'm sorry, I totally missed the part about the colored dots showing up on your Tilt after the last HR. Are you still having this issue, or is the phone booting correctly and you just have no sound?
Same Problem
I have the same issue. After the flash I tried, I see colored dots once I tried RUU. After that when I reboot, I just see a blank screen. I see that AS is happening.
Before the flash it wasR 1.27.14.09. Now it is 1.27.12.11
How do I fix the colored dots issue?
everything OK now.....
I reflashed the original radio, as per the instructions here, and now the phone is fully functional again (emails, phone, WIFI, GPS....).
I must admit I was quite worried for several hours, and couldn't wait to return home.
Further, it turns out I've grown quite dependent upon my Tilt...
Last, the signal strength issues haven't gone away, obviously, and I've yet to find the proper radio.
Many thanks to all the helpful people here.
By the way, I'm still curious regarding the reason for the colored dots on the screen.
Until I reflashed the orgiinal radio,

Until I reflashed the orgiinal radio, all I had were the colored dots.
Following the initial french radio flash, and prior to the full HR, I did not have sound, bout the phone was fully functional.
After I performed the full HR (both soft keys + SR) - I received the colored dots screen, which rendered the phone unusable.
I have this same problem and can't get in bootloader mode!!
Any help!!
I ran the louder volume hack.app v3.5 and lost radio signal. I have a rooted phone but have done nothing else to the phone. I ran the louder volume hack.app not knowing it was discontinued. The program didn't seem to work os I rebooted the device to see if that was the problem. This is when I noticed I had no mobile service at all. I have rebooted the phone, pulled the battery, done factory reset, and nothing seems to help. Where the icon was showing bars, it is now showing a circle with a slash in it. Can anyone help me Please!!

I would flash the stock rom and radio see if that does it
lost radio signal.
I have now reflashed the kernal - kernel-att-stock-2.3.6.zip, SkyRocket ICS (2.3.5 Gingerbread) - Rc 6.75 Stock rom, and Original Shipped AT&T Skyrocket Radio I727ATTKJ2 and RIL. I still have no radio, signal, nothing. Everything else still works fine but no mobile service, or data at all. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I finally got it!! I found this fixdLA3modem.zip here on XDA, flashed it, and got everything working. The circle with a slash has changed back to bars and now I have the 4G symbol back. Thanks.
I am having a weird network connectivity problem or may be the battery problem, don't know exactly. My connection starts to drop when battery reaches below 50%. After couple of restarts, it begin to show the signals but when making call, it shows "Reorganizing internal process". I couldn't even send the messages as it gives message sending fail error. After restarting 5 or 6 times, battery drains to 0% & shuts down the phone. I also tried changing the sim but the same problem arise. It was working fine in OptimusRS ICS rom. The problem arose after upgrading to OptimusRS JellyCream rom. Also, facing this problem in ICS GPCR V2.1 rom.
Please someone help!
Anyone???
Does the problem persist if you go back to the previous ROM?
Didn't tried going back to previous ROM yet. I'll do that tomorrow.
Connection issue could be baseband but it does not explain battery. If the old ROM works you know it is some issue there, or bad flash maybe.
