Have I bricked my Kaiser - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

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.

details some info for a Wizard, should it be the same for a Kaiser?
Will Mtty get me any further?

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.
I have most of the files to fix these issues & can use MSN fileshare folders to help you.
Good chance that you can be up again in a matter of minutes

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

Wont Boot

I am a little confused. I have been trying to get WM6 on my T-mobile Wizard and actually got TNT 1.1 loaded and was working fine. I found that I could no longer view my contacts. The page would appear and then as quickly as it appeared it disappeared.
So I figured, I at least got it this far. I will just reload this rom and see if perhaps something did load right. Well after the reload. The phone boots up to the splash screen with IPL\SPL numbers and just sits. NOTHING.
I left it there for like 2 hours and still nothing. But I can still get into the BootLoader.
My questions to you gurus is:
Is the phone fubared?
Can I do some kind of master reset?
Why would it tell me "Invalid Vendor ID" when trying to flash the orginal T-mobile rom?
Are there any tools that can help me out? Paid\free?
Please help!!! Seriously! Please HELP!!!
Very much appreciated.
Thanks

if your device is G3, unlocking is required to flash any rom, before upgrade your device, it is recommended to flash an official WM5.0 rom (in your case T-Mobile rom) with IPL and SPL 2.xx then flash again.
in general there are many probabilities for your issue.
((Where is TNT1.1?? did you mean 1.0?? ))
My Bad meant 1.0
So to get it straight.... I will need to unlock my phone each time?
Oh and to correct myself again, when flashing with the T-mobile ROM it says UPGRADE ONLY. And the read me file says its the wrong RUU. But it is the same file from Tmobile I used when I first got the phone. But I will try again.
Are there any other suggestions?
You need to read the "how to flash" sticky.
I did. I am not any expert or anything but I believe the phone is unlocked already since I once had WM6 on my phone. The real issue I am having is that it wont boot past the splash screen after flashing.
And that is true when re following the steps in guide. After flashing to the button rom it will not boot past the splash screen.
Try another ROM.
Sounds like you need the "Wizard Love" rom. I dont have the link handy but I am sure someone else does.

Already got it. Thanks I am trying to load it now. But the only thing is that the last time it failed and I can understand what the error says. I know the number is 300 but can read the language.
But I will let you guys know when this load completes.
Thanks again for all the assistance.
No worky worky. The load completed and then boots the splash screen shows and then stays there.
Any ideas?
Try to remove the battery and let it out for at least half an hour. Then put it back in and see what it does then.
I thought the same thing too. So when it got done last night, out of frustration, I removed the battery and left it there to wait on when I get off work today. I will report back on what happens.
Again I would like to thank you guys for helping me. I really do appreciate it!
STEP 1 install the original manufacturer ROM
T-mobile UK
http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/download_manager_mda_vario.html
T-mobile US

Search for the original rom for any other
instructions on how to use the original rom can be found here
http://support.t-mobile.com/knowbase/root/public/tm23294.htm?&A2L.SERVICE=AboutUpgrading
Put it in the bootloader mode.. ( three color screens )
hope this helps..
cheers
Praneet
Ok I did that and it gave me ERROR 296: UPGRADE ONLY
Then it tells me that the NBF file cannot be used for my PDA Phone. Please get newer NBF file.
Is there any way I can get the Tmobile splash and IPL\SPL number back to original, it doesnt need to boot all the way into WCE but atleast show the same numbers and splash during boot up?
Or any other way to get this thing to work?
Thanks guys
BTW it is a HTC Wizard from T-mobile.
If you are getting an error 300 you need a newer rom update utility, and regardless if your phone is a G3 or G4 it needs to be unlocked before you flash any rom.. LOAD a OFFICIAL cingular ROM onto your device before going any further, then unlock your phone either via www.imei-check.com or through some of the tools offered here...
Which one should I down load from Cingular? Even though I have a Tmobile phone?
what ipl and spl are you using and what radio are you using. Just post all the numbers from the bootloader
As soon as I get home, I will post them.
Thanks
Ipl 1.01
Spl 3.08

Flash without hardspl

I have an unusual problem with my oem att tilt running SPL-1.56.0000 (according to the bootloader screen).
The ROM is somehow corrupted in that it will not boot past the giant ATT logo and coordinates (?) screen. I have been having some trouble with the device, but this is a new occurrence not related to anything I did. I have never reflashed the ROM, and because it is in a current hosed state I cannot run hardspl on the device.
I have tried reloading many of the "ATT OEM" ROMs I can find, but they all return "Invalid ID" error the ROM uploader I believe because the versions don't match.
Is there any way to reflash the ROM and bootloader on the device without having first run hardspl? Am I SOL?
Thanks
RK
Did you try going to tri-color first then flashing a stock tilt rom?
Dude, I have the same problem...
I bought the tilt 2 weeks when I was in a business travel in the US and came back to Argentina... I'm kind of screwed about the warranty 'cause I don't think I'll go again so soon to the US...
Is there anybody who can help us with this?
The very diference is that (At the ATT start up Logo screen) the bottom line says D 1.57.00.00 instead of D 1.56.00.00.
Tried everything... soft reset, hard reset... and so on...
The thing is that at some point I think I can get to the phone in some way since if I turn on the phone keeping pressed the camera button and enter in the rom loader screen I can get comm to the phone using mtty (As pof explained to do for "Un-brick" the phone (In the case you got a bad flashing) in this thread...
So, please If anybody have any idea it would be great!
I still have a little hope, because it's like there is some kind of communication between the phone and the computer...
Thanks in advance to any help.
A.
both of you...
Check my sticky thread for reverting back to the stock tilt ROM and SPL...
all you really need from there is the Stock ATT ROM... download it!
Put your phone in Bootloader (shouldn't be too difficult by the sounds of it)
Install the stock ATT ROM.
If this doesn't work try extracting the downloaded ROM (using WinRAR or similar) then just run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe
Then you might want to consider installing HardSPL... the default download should work for the 1.56 guy. The 1.57 guy will need to download jwocky2001's whitescreen fix (check the stickies).
Good Luck!
I am at the tricolor screen and I have tried the instructions on your thread (thanks very much for making it so easy). However, it says invalid vendor ID after loading 1%; the device automatically reboots and reverts back to the ATT screen until I place it back into the tricolor bootloader again. I thought this was because the version I'm running is 1.56 and I could only find two original OEM ATT ROMs, neither was 1.56 and both failed.
BTW I couldn't do the part about hardspl and running the kaiser program on the device for obvious reasons, but I could get the kaiserruu program to recognize the device, another ROM and attempt to upload it.
Any other thoughts? Do I really need the exact same ATT OEM ROM as what is on the device or is something else wrong?
Thanks again

Almost giving up - Impossible to flash my Tytn II

Hello,
I've tried flashing my Kaizer by all different ways I could, but no way to make it work. I've downloaded a lot of different ROMs (Alex, Dutty, VIET, etc), but I always get stuck in the same point. Either in Vista or XP, RUU always stops with ERROR [262] and the phone after the three-color screen, get in blank with a bar in 0% and gets stuck.
So, I've tried flashing via microSD. No better luck on that; even using different SDs, I always get stuck in a Loading... message in the phone, and nothing happens.
I've read a lot of forums and done all suggestions such as not using Anti-Virus, Firewall, etc and formatting SD as FAT32.
One interesting thing is ActiveSync (and WMDC in Vista) simple "dies" after the phone goes to the Three-color screen so it sounds the "new hardware found" sound but no new hardware seems to become available. I always can soft reset it and my old ROM (and configs) come back, so nothing seems to be done to phone's ROM.
This Kaizer was bought in the US (Amazon.com), unlocked, in Feb/08. I had some rare Freezing Problems on it (freezes while idle).
Today's config:
WM 6 Professional
CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2)
ROM 1.82.721.0 WWE
Radio 1.27.15.32
Thank you in advance for any ideas on flashing this phone.
Regards. RB.
I'm assuming you've RTFM'd, but nowhere do you mention that you have installed Hard-SPL.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
Done?
You should probably do more research and reading. Start with the Wiki and specially HardSPL search for it. The answers are in here you just need to search. Welcome to the forum and this is not a spoon fed forum but rather put your time in the research before you brick your phone. HOPE YOU WON'T GET FLAMED....
What about HardSPL?
Thank you for fast replies.
I've also tried HARDspl, my efforts went there when nothing worked. I could make HARDspl run some code in my phone (had to hit "Continue" on phone's screen), but I got a freeze blank screen instead of the Three-color/USB screen.
So, I've forced the Three-color screen by reseting the phone (and got the USB sign), but the HARDspl's updater got, again into ERROR [262]. Ok, I didn't believe this was goig to work anyway, but tried it (considered safe to try).
I have tried HARDspl from a Vista PC, I'll try again from a XP box. I'll also read more on HARDspl.
So, as you can seen not even HARDspl seems to be workimg in my case...
Thanks. Regards. RB.
sigh.......why do i even bother.........

Do a search for HardSPL white screen. There's a thread in this very forum about it freezing on a white screen.
I think I remember some issues with it on Vista, but I don't have Vista, so I don't pay attention.
You must HardSPL first. Search for HardSPL and whatever issue you're having, and I bet you can find a resolution and have it unlocked inside of ten minutes.
Xtreme_G took the time to search and post a link, and still managed to beat me to it. Bastard.
i guess you need a heavy paper weight so keep flashing without installing hardspl or without reading and searching ...

phone won't get past boot screen after trying to Unlock CID

I was planning on putting a new rom on my tilt..i ran hardspl just fine but when I tried to do the cid unlock I got to step three and I got ERROR: CreateProcess failed with Errorcode = 30123

yeah i did a hard reset and it's still messed up. I really just want to return to the default settings and not mess around with a new rom right now..maybe after I've had this phone for awhile. But even when i hard reset it gets to the at and t screen and makes a funny noise...then it will go through the screen alignment and customization thingy. After that it just restarts but after the at and t screen it goes dark and I can't do anything on the phone. I'm guessing is that the radio was patched to one that like doesn't work with this phone? I don't know.

OK should be easy to fix.
What Radio does it show whilst booting (Next to R: on the First Splah screen)?
What OS/ROM are you using?
Have you tried flashing another Radio/ROM from the Bootloader screen?

Error [244] : Invalid model id

After loading the Stylez Black v.4 WM6.1 21051 D3D 101MB Full rom my phone give some problems, so i want to go back to the T-Mobile ROM.
But when i am trying to get this rom on the phone with this help i get now the ERROR [244] : INVALID MODEL ID warring, and looked with the search here but i get a lot of different options soms topics are more than 2 years old and that is not working.
So, what can i do to load a new rom or how do i get the orginal rom back on the phone?
plz help....
Thanks in advance...
Maybe this can help you http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser
Or this too http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_ROMs
No solutions found...
Anyone ?? Please?
Hard-SPL bypasses Vendor Model check so shouldn't have any problem flashing any stock ROM have you tried others? Try and flash a HTC or AT&T stock, just a bizarre thing as everyone flashes stocks at some point especially if nearly brick and peeps generally flash stocks to bypass 6.5 hard-reset issue.
Can you go into bootloader and reply with Hard-SPL you have?
Also another way is to try flashing via SD, info in the flashing for noobs guide in sticky.
Same Issue
Hi,
I also use Hard SPL to flash new ROMs, however i also face the same issue with certain roms, currently i remember i has similar issues with ATNT rom.
Ok, or i am a realy noob or i doing somthing wrong...
Now when ik start the phone i get the Tri Color : (Red, Green, Blue Screen)
I did a hard reset en now the phone shows the boot screen (Stylez)
When i take the batterij off and put it in after 20 secs again or the tri color or the boot screen is loading or the screen is black.....
Please don't say that i can trow him into the trash...
All you have described there is normal. Now just follow the noobs guide to flashing in the sticky and do everything it says word for word. If the usb method doesnt work then use the sd card way.

Sorry but i want to be shure, you mean this topic?
And if so, how do i load the rom?
Because the phone is not starting up normal,...
If you want i can make screenshots from the pc and make images so you can see?
Sorry for this noob questions....
Yes that is the thread I meant. So did you follow all that was said to do in the link about kaiser stuck at tri colour screen bootloader?
Ok, tryed but with the boot screen and with the Tri Color screen i can not make any USB connection with MTTY, when i start the kaiser with the camera button and with the powerbuton i can connect (USB is also an option (COM1 and COM2 also)).
But is this a correct move?
*contacted user via MSN*
Also tried several steps using the SD card but the phone will still hang into the tri-colour. It says loading, but won't reboot or do anything else.
Suggestions are still open.
FYI: It's a branded phone and wasn't CID-unlocked before. (Still not AFAIK)
