Rookie not wanting to brick my kaiser - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

OK, I've read and re-read a bunch of stuff here and I just wanted to make sure I've done this right.
I've got the AT&T Tilt HTC Kaiser PPC
I tried to use hardSPL but I got the white screen so I followed this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354061
...and flashed using ONLY the flash-hardSPL.zip file included in this thread.
It worked, (I think) the whole process took only a few seconds before the bar on my screen went to 100%.
I want to run this ROMuttys_WM6.1_5.2.19700_Hybrid_V2 Cube
I just want to verify what I need to make the above work, and what files or differences I should see on my Tilt to ensure that I have hardSPL properly installed so I don't brick it.
Thanks much for any assistance.

Verifying Hard SPL
To verify, hold down the camera button while soft resetting ,continue to hold the camera button until you see a tricolor screen with the SPL version on it. Example: SPL-3.56.HARD

OK, spank me... Sorry for posting in the wrong place. NVM, I'm no tech forum rookie, I'll just bang my head on the keyboard for being such a noob.
Move it to the proper place as necessary...
to answer the SPL ver.#:Kais1*0 MFG, SPL-1.0.olipof, CPLD-8
EDIT: OK, I just re-flashed it to ensure that it is at the latest 3.56 from the sticky at the top of this forum, and checked it via the camera/soft boot.

HELP! Jtag (HJTAG and NoIce) On HTC Touch ELF GSM

Hey,
First off, I am not sure if I am looking in the right place, but I have searched forums, google etc, and I have not found anything that is able to help me with this.
I am currently working on JTAGing a HTC Touch ELF - I don't know the devices history, and I am beginning to fear that it is beyond my help. I have started a thread in the HTC Touch Elf section (link in my signature) that I have been using to learn JTAG, and also, inspired someone to fix there dead phone
However, there's sailed through, and mine is being a bit reluctant to want to work.
I have the below issues, and wondered if any of you nice people may be able to help, or point me back on course.
"Okay, So today I have tried some more.
It has now picked my device up as:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The processor ID still doesn't match what I expected, however, I am getting closer to it at least!
However, I still get an error message in NoIce:
I have tried doing a hard/soft reset as you would on the phone, however, I am not getting any Joy. This is making me wonder even more if it is because of this phone is so dead.
I haven't yet opened the second device I have for JTAG, this is going to be my next step. I also have another JTAG wriggler I can use now, so I am going to give that a go too."
Please, if someone can help, feel free to PM, write back here, or on the thread in my signature, I really am stuck here.
Thanks in advance,
Stu
Anyone have any Ideas?

A bit to Newbie Here!

Hi Guys,
I am totally new to this Android stuff but I love it and would love to learn about it. I have just bought an HTC Magic (32A) which has a logo of TIM on it. It has firmware version 1.4 and the build number is 2.15.901.4.
What I want to do is upgrade my phone to the latest version of Android, and also have the Sense UI installed in it. But I do not know where to start or what to look for. Can somebody here, kindly, briefly describe how can I achieve my target or atleast point me in the right direction.
Regards,
Kamil Waheed

P.S you need to root it, flash the new radio, SPL and recovery and then flash a ROM of your choice which is for the new radio. (2.1 Sense ROMs for the new radio are better than those for the old one(3.22)
Thanks for your reply.
Yea, I know I should google it but googling didn't help a bit. I am a bit too confused right now.
I have found a few tutorials on how to root it.
After that, how to flash the new radio. Instead, I should ask, what is radio?
What is SPL and how to flash that?
What is recovery and how to flash that?
Which ROM should I flash to? Can you also give me a link to one?
I am sorry, but I know nothing about Android. A little more help would be appreciated.
It might help to read this first.

i think you need a gold card, try reading this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523160
ok, still going to need some help here....
The phone will NOT boot at all etc, and I cant get the CID to create a gold card.
And even if I DID create a gold card, how would I go about flashing when the phone only goes to the above screens shown?????
Anyone fancy taking me step by step in exactly what I need to do?
well im not a developer or anything, im just trying to help, your problem is not that hard, if you have a knowledge in fastboot command you can fix your issue with just a little bit of reading, others solve this kind of problem just read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1372533 and if you dont know how abd fastboot go'es try reading this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719 sorry if keep telling you to read, im not a developer i just have a little knowledge about this things, and maybe someone maybe able to help you step by step on how you will do it, good luck..
Flash RUU, or try using Revolutionary to S-OFF in fastboot mode.
Before you ask for more detailed instructions - SEARCH. Start with the INDEX thread in General section.

Splash Screen

I made a new splash screen for the htc one sv. It is the screen you see when you first turn on your phone now you can change it.
Just put it on the root of your sd card and boot into HBOOT it will find it and ask if you want to install it.
For awesome instructions and more info on how to do this check out old.splatterhand's guide here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2212152
WARNING!!!
As with any modifying of system files anything can go wrong!!! Make a FULL BACKUP before using this. It does work for me and have been using it for a month with no problems. But i hold no responsibility if your phone bricks from this, your doing it at your own risk. So please know what you are doing and if you need help ask before not after you bricked your phone.
Change the boring splash screen with this one.

Thank you. I looked thru your index that you made (very well laid out have it booked marked) but i did not see the the original splash screen listed anywhere. Maybe i over looked it. But maybe you can grab it from the phone, i would of but couldn't figure out how to, so i just overwritten mine, would be nice in case some one wants to reinstall it for warranty purposes. I looked for hours to find the ADB code to save it but couldn't so i gave up on it and just bit the bullet and overwritten it.

Noob in need of saviour - Z3 softbrick

Hi all,
Scoured the forum for a while but, to be honest, I didn't even know how to search for my issue. Please feel free to redirect me to another thread.
Two problems.
1.
Tried to flash Cyanogen to my Xperia Z3. Unlocked bootloader and tried to do something [enter technical word, flash maybe] a root img file. This soft bricked my phone, took it to a shop, they said it's dead, bought another one. Is this salvageable? More details: Followed instructions here, got to "fastboot reboot", (flashed a cyanogen nightly) then phone only made it to the Sony screen on startup. Then followed these instructions to flash moonwalker but the result was a soft brick (try to turn it on, one lifeless vibration and nothing). Didn't root it beforehand (yep, idiot). I've heard you could flash an older ROM, but this leads me to the problem below.
2.
New phone. Looking to root it. Using flashtool and an ftf (D6603_23.0.A.2.93) downloaded here, but when selecting firmware, the file ftf appears to be empty. I imagine flashtool has undergone cosmetic surgery (update) as it appears to be different than other pictures, or perhaps I'm missing something glaringly obvious?
If anybody with a bit of free time has a moment to help me out, I'd be very grateful. Many thanks.

Not sure the image is working and not able to post external links. To explain it, the firmware appears (and is the correct model), but all other boxes (content, wipe etc.) are empty and the flash button is greyed out.
