From what I've read you need to remove your sim card and your microsd card then try again

There is no simcard and microsd in the htc Kaiser.
on the HTC Kaiser is the original T-Mobile software, nothing else

Perhaps your problem is related to new SPL... take a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349476
Cheers.

When your phone is booting up, look in the lower right corner. If you have a line that reads:
D 1.57.00.00
Then you most likely have the issue in the thread mentioned by jcespi2005. If you have:
D 1.56.00.00
Then its probably something else (as 1.56.00.00 should be able to do the HardSPL).

Why not flash the old SPL to the device then you can use Hard_SPL. I havent checked but arent there original ROM available(of course CID/carrier specific) from before 1.57.

The real problem is SSPL used to flash HardSPL is not working with this one, so you can't go back to previous SPL... don't know what shipped ROMs are out that allows flash over this SPL...but perhaps this can be a way to go...
Cheers.

The Rom of my Phone is d.1.56.00.00 !
I do a hardreset, but Hard SPL dont work!

well... for the Tilt you can't flash the "official" ROM back to the device because of an "Invalid Vendor ID", I'm not sure why this is but it just doesn't work. You can however flash the AKU0.4.4 ROM to an unmodified Tilt so the CID apparently is good on that ROM. However I've done this and it does not fix the "white screen" issue on the affected devices.

i use to have hard spl sir,and went back to normal official spl,just like going back to official roms.never had a problem..all went smoothly. been running official wm6.1 htc wwe for 2 weeks now with the original spl (not hard spl). Now that i wanted to try again to hard spl and flash cooked roms safely i cant see the usb on the bottom when i do sspl or jump uspl. am i missing something sir??

check for my reply under the sticky at the top of the forum

hard spl flashing...
hello skipper, thesire, and all others,
i wanted to reiterate that you should really read the forum linked above because it has a special "force usb" version of the hard spl installation that mau very well help you.
also, we could all maybe help you a bit more if you could post your firmware/spl versions (the numbers listed at top left on bootloader, but you probably knew that already, lol) Just so we can get a better idea of your situation- the more info the better!
i do a lot of kaiser and athena rom building, I posted a few decent roms at the beginning of the year but i havent released one since... (workin on one now though) but i am not exactly the caliber of rom builder that some of these guys are ... anyways, my point is that i have been in A LOT of hairy situations like this, but persistance is the key, so if i can help in any way i will....

hey genius you are replying to the wrong guy. I DID NOT make the post. The guy who did i already suggested the solution you provided (even before you did) under jockyw's hardspl thread where he posted the same exact problem ....

i have managed to get in to the bootloader to flash the hard spl,using the 1.56 ver of sspl..however,neither of all the hard spl works after that.i cant flash any of the hard spl packages. im really suprise this is happening as i have done a lot of flashing back and forth for my tytnII. oh yah,my spl is 3.29 from the official HTC WWE wm6.1
thanks for all the help..

Flashed to Rom's stop at 16% and 18% ! Help

Hello,

Have you installed Hard SPL?
Everything you need to know about flashing is here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser#ROMx20.Upgrading start following these instructions and let us know how far you get, before you have problems.
Thanks
Dave

pretty sure he missed the hardspl! use jockeyw hardspls if you want flashing wm 6.1 olipro will also work but its recommended to use a hardspl ripped from a wm 6.1 edition

Thanks for Reply
I have been using JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe and JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe - When flashing both rooms - Will study your link and let you know if missed anything
Many thanks for the assistance

Jump SPL is used for Flashing Hard SPL's only. If you have flashed Hard SPL already, then you just plug in your phone to your PC via USB and use the KaiserCustomRUU tool.
Or Flash from SD Card (Instructions in the Wiki).
Thanks
Dave

Hey bro, I had the same problem. Figured out that you need to CID unlock the phone before you flash HardSPL. Fixed it for me. Good Luck!

Unless I'm suffering from amnesia, HardSPL IS the method for CID Unlocking.

I know, but I had to download & run the SID/CID unlocker for the hardSPL to work.

Buggin me bugging you
Hi Guys...

[UPG] READ BEFORE FLASHING! Hard-SPL 2.28/3.10/etc - yes with overwrite protection :)

well so finally here's a real hardspl =)
it's based on USPL's - new feature is overwrite protection. so devices won't get bricked if flashing a full shipped rom. the version after flashing this will be "xx.xx.cmon" (ending in cmon).
btw, this uses same CID patches as the 3.07 USPL made by htctouchp but i removed modelid patch after determining it wasn't necessary (makes it safer by not allowing to flash other devices' roms).
also thanks to htctouchp for testing this hardspl.
NOTE that shipped roms with SPL.NBH included will fail to flash until the SPL.NBH is removed (in the past this would have resulted in a brick, now hardspl protects you from this).
also, all these hardspl's include the size patch to allow flashing smaller images via RUU!
usage: download from attachment, flash with pof sspl, enjoy
or if you already have some version of uspl, then just use that to update straight to hardspl. (but after installing hardspl you will always have to use sspl if you want to change spl version, see detailed instructions below.)
more detailed instructions:
this is to flash any SPL: either update to hardspl this way or flash another spl over hardspl. (copied from other post)
0. make sure your device is synced to activesync!!
1. Run the elf-uspl.exe from ELF_USPL_2.26.0000.zip
2. Watch Screen and Press Enter When Asked.
3. Screen should Jump to White on Phone and on PC Flashing Loading Bar will Show.
4. Stuck in Black Ducky Loading Screen?, check Active Sync Connection or Do a hard reset on Phone first. But be sure to do the last Actual Flashing in White Screen. Sometimes this needs a few tries to go through white screen.
5. Done.
UPDATE: 2.26 and 2.28 hardspl's: 2.28 is best if 3.x versions don't seem to work on your device. very stable because it seemed to work on any elf/elfin so far.
...get them from attachments in this post,
and thanks to htctouchp (Aman) for saving me time by editing these!
UPDATE: 3.10 HSPL: Aman found a new SPL update and ported my hacks to it, thanks attached to this post too.
UPDATE: 3.14 HSPL: Aman found yet another new SPL update and again ported my hacks to it; newest attachment in this post. new feature: cool picture while device is charging!! if you don't like the idea of the device being on in bootloader when it's not in use just charging the battery, you can stick to 3.10 or 2.28.
[SIZE=+2]IMPORTANT: 2.26 and 2.28 are for both Elf and Elfin, but 3.07 and 3.10/3.14 sometimes don't work on 64mb Elf so if you have that device, test with USPL version first[/SIZE]
still, if you've managed to flash the wrong version, then to unbrick, see for now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3395787&postcount=155
[SIZE=+2]IMPORTANT 2:[/SIZE] [SIZE=+2]3.14 can Cause Larger Battery Drain then expected.[/SIZE]
Further Plans When I Get The Time:
- better integration of SSPL loader, and check included to prevent 3.xx installing on Elf's
- user friendly unbricking

as mentioned by cmonex, u need to use SSPL to flash another SPL i.e. elf-uspl.exe, the white screen method, which u were using before to flash the USPLs.

AWESOME work C!! once again the legend of PPC hacking strikes back

*SOLVED* What Went wrong - Htc Blackstone rom flashing

so i finally did it! i flashed my rom with RUU_Duttys_HD_WM6.5_Sense_2.1_Holy_Grail_R0
BUT when i turned the device on the colors were awful, it is slow and it is stucked all the time , sometimes even the "sense" doesn't want to start my CIM Card is not RECOGNIZED i did a soft reset and a hard one... nothing happens please please any ideas what shall i do now?

Do you have the proper hard spl for the rom? I don't own an hd, but do remember reading that you need an upgraded hard spl for newer roms. It sounds like you have a bad bootloader.

Yeah ted is right thats a classic sympton of someone using the wrong hspl/uspl, flash back to a stock rom, read the stickys in the HD rom development section, and upgrade your spl, then flash the rom again and everything should be working fine

ok so i used some different HSPL cuz i didnt find any other for the dutty's, so if i found a normal HSPL (Can you post a link for one sorry?) i shall flash it again ok thanks

The lastest spl for HD is 1.56 here it is, i assume you know what to do with it

Be careful and make sure it's the right one and you know what you're doing.
Flashing the wrong hard spl is the easiest way to brick a device.

another problem the phone doesn't even want to synch with my comp
