Hey folks -
I upgraded my ATT Tilt to DUtty's 6.1 today (first time flashing).
Anyway, after sound wasn't working I read up on the radio information and decided to go with 1.64.08.21 based upon what some folks said worked for them in various posts.
To flash the ROM, I am using JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe loaded onto the device.
Dutty's worked fine, but the radio made it to 99% then hung. I waited for 3-4 minutes and nothing happened, but the flashing tool said it lost connection. I followed the recover steps including a hard reboot (and went to the tree color screen with "serial" at the bottom), but now each try just hangs at 0% when trying to install the radio ROM.
What do I do?
Thanks,
Tom

from what i understand you cant flash a radio with the jumpspl. why not install hardspl and be done with it. it's a one time thing.
DELETED... Above is better^^

1.) Disable USB connections in activesync.
2.) Put your phone into the tri-color screen.
3.) Flash the original shipped ROM.
Something i learned this past week from another poster, that had a problem. U can't JumpSPL a radio Rom.
Try flashing a 6.0 rom and see from there. I assume you couldn't Hard SSPL your device? if this is not the case then your better off doing that
I tried hardspl and it didn't work - constant white screen.
Thanks for the tip on original ROM, trying that now.

did you try the hrdspl, white screen solved thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354061
jocky made it so you can flash hardspl from what I understand.
you can also try this to get hardspl on your device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361236
Does this mean I need to avoid flashing at all if I cannot use hardspl?
avoid flashing radio, but try the links that tater posted and see if it solves your problem.
Thanks, everyone...just got back to ATT stock rom and all is well again. Will try the links posted above!

just be careful to follow the instructions to the letter. Good luck.
Just finished re-doing everything. I was confused regarding the fact that JumpSPL didn't replace HardSPL, it just helped getting it working.
Just finished reinstalling ditty and the same radio version and all is working great.
Now off to figure out how to play with TouchFlo and Cube.
Thanks!!!

very welcome. glad to see you back up and running.
Im going nutz here so please forgive me..
I've read the rom flashing guides, I've searched for a couple days, but I am STILL unable to flash Dutty's Latest 6.1 hybrid rom. Here's how I attempted it.
Flashed Hardspl v1.
Flashed many diff 6.0 and 6.1 roms & radios. All worked perfectly.
Attempted to flash Dutty's Hybrid 6.1, flash completes to 100% and resets.
I can see the splash screen and even go through the setup. It then freezes on the splash screen and the buttons and screen are unreposive.
Here's some things I've tried after searching here.
Flash a wm 6.1 compatible radio ( I flashed several)
No change. Still frozen after autosetup.
Flash to original AT&T rom for the tilt and reflash back to Dutty's. No change Still froze at boot on splash screen.
Flash all of Dutty's other roms. They are flashed succesfully and work fine.
So here I am...at your mercy. Why would this rom have problems with my Tilt when every other rom I've flashed work just fine?
Any Tips.
If anyone has ANYTHING that could help me I would be very apprectiative.
Thank You
Thrac
Try doing a Hard Reset then re-flashing your device.
HTH.
Thanks
Dave
Or try flashing using MicroSD Card - as described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336158
RE
Thank you both for your suggestions. I am however still unable to use this rom.
I performed a Hard Reset anad then reflash with both USB and MicroSD. It still freezes at the point right after screen calibration.
Can anyone shed some light here??
Thanks again

flash to a 6.1 rom you previously flashed that worked. then flash to his hybrid.
I've been flashing new ROMS on an 8525 for a couple of years now, but I'm new to the 8925.
I've been reading a lot, I think I understand the relation between SPL and the ROMs now, but I'm still puzzled.
I keep getting a lot of cruft left behind from prior ROMs and don't know how to get rid of it. for example about three ROMs ago, I flashed the "Mobile Vista" from ansar. Now I still get his Today theme, and there are still a lot of apps installed that read "ansar..."
I've tried removing the battery before flashing, making sure the SPL version is OK with the ROM doing hard resets - nothing seems to let this device start from a "clean slate".
I'm trying to find a ROM I can be happy with, which is why I'm trying so many, but I can't fairly evaluate aon one ROM if I don't know what I've really got installed.
TIA
Walt
I've never heard of anything like that happening Are you sure it is the today theme, or just the boot splash? That would be most likely.
As far as the programs, maybe most of them are from ansar? Which ROM are you using right now?
I just flashed the PDA Corner latest version (15) and it seems to be behaving now. Prior ROMS I tried this morning included Athine, Garmin and Phoenix.
Prior to flashing PDA Corner, I did an "Erase memory" (hard reset from software) and removed the battery for about 10 minutes. Maybe that's what did it. I agree, I've never seen anything like this before, I always thought that flashing the ROM reased everything, but then I started reading about SPL on the Kaiser somehow being more than just a bootloader so I got concerned.
And yes, it was the Today screen including clock, wallpaper, etc. The splash screen on bootup actually did change to the one corresponding to the new ROM.
Thanks.
Walt
When flashing a new ROM, when you get to the "Tap screen to begin" do you perform a Hard Reset?
If not, I suggest you start doing now.
Also, merschle (ex-moderator and Artemis cook) recommended flashing a ROM twice with a Hard Reset in between. I don't do this, but it just might help

Flash a stock HTC rom and then try a modified rom again. It always helped me when i got strange flash problems.

I hard reset three times then I flash an OEM ROM, then I hard reset three more times to be sure. I know it's anal, but it works for me.
I don't know how you're flashing try the SD Card method.
It's safer and more reliable.
The SPL & Rom have closer relationship than on your older device.
A sign of have the wrong SPL or needing to change to another SPL is freezing. If you notice your device is freezing or non-responsive, flash the recommended SPL by the chef.
Don't worry any, I was the same when I upgraded from the Wizard...gotta learn all over again.
Hello,
I am experiencing random freezes with almost any WM6.$ ROM i flash it with.
My current setup is:
HardSPL 3.56
Radio Version: 1.65.21.18
ROM Version: Anryl 21500 rev6
I have also tried Medkid's versions, 1.33, 1.62, 1.62F
Ill give wjtk's version a try today see how this goes.
The problem is, that it will freeze on stupid times, while its a clean installation. e.g. yesterday Medkid's 1.62F froze up on me when i tried to change the time. Then it needed a soft reset through the button, it froze on the boot screen (the one that shows the radio version etc etc) had to soft reset again through the button and i somehow hard reset it that way...
Any ideas?
(Im pretty sure i have CID unlocked it, is there any way to check it?)
Thanks in advance,
Andrew

This subject has been covered many many times, there really was no need to start yet another thread on it.
Try flashing cmonex's 3.29hard s Spl., it is a patched spl for random freezes.
http://rapidshare.com/files/191032042/Cmonex_s_HardSPL3.29_SD.zip
6.5 is still in development so it can't be error free no matter you change the radio's, SPL's. But our master chefs are really working hard to outperform MS guyz.

Well said guys.. closing thread as answers are out there without a new thread
My fuze is freezing after a soft reset, and the only solution I have found is to hard reset.
I recently flashed hard-spl and my first cooked ROM. A few days later this happened. It freezes just after the animation sequence. I hard reset the phone, set it all up again, couple days later - frozen again. Tried a different ROM, loaded fine, set it all up, couple days later - frozen. Tried a 3rd ROM, same thing.
I was running the stock at&t fuze ROM up until this with no issues. I have tried 2 different versions of the Energy ROM 2.0 and once with Shep's 6.5 ROM.
I'm getting pretty sick of setting this thing up. Any ideas, maybe a bad hard-spl flash?
I had the same problem before, i fixed it with flashing back stock rom, reflash hard-spl and trying a diffrent build of my favorite rom, and to be honest i have no idea what fixed it.
Ok thanks for the reply. I am going to try a reflash of the hard spl, and a new ROM. Something makes me think the hard spl is the problem, but a new ROM can't hurt at this point. I will post my results...... in a few days. Thanks again!
Having almost the same problem. Where exactly was it stopping?
I get the first splash-screen, afterward in the lower right corner the 3 red version numbers appear and nothing happens, i dont get to the second (animated) splashscreen, nor to the windows mobile one.
More info:
Stock Rom
--> flashed HardSPL
--> flashed PdaViet V11
--> months later V15
--> weeks later WM 6.5 Testrom, disappointed --> flashed ProvenRom 3.3
--> trouble began approx. 3 days later
--> reflashed ProvenRom 3.3
--> trouble started again, then i did a hard reset for the first time
i will try reflashing stock rom, then hardspl, than custom rom and report in a couple of days
same thing happened to my htc touch pro. i havent fixed it yet
Happened again. I had reflashed the hard-spl and then a new version of the energyROM. It froze up later that night. Iam getting the first splash, with the red numbers, romversion etc., then the animation plays, the it freezes at the end of it. I guess I will try to flash back to stock ROM and see what happens. Until someone has a fix, I guess it'll be trial and error. I'll keep you posted.
And again, twice.
I thought everything was fine, workin good for a couple of days, then it froze again. Any thoughts or further suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Seems like it happens while I am setting things up, phone starts to get laggy after a soft reset, after adding a cab that requires a soft reset. Then it freezes on the next reset.
Software Version
I think we should narrow this down by comparing the software versions.
I'll start:
Radio: 1.14.25.05
Rom: Proven 3.2, 5.07.831.17 build 5.2.21042.1.6.1
HardSPL by Olinex
now you go!
addition:
i also remember, this happened after a cab-install. Do you remember WHAT you actually tried to install? I think for me it was HomeScreenPlusPlus UI. Afterwards it was always Opera that stopped responding and i had to soft-reset --> total failure
I had the exact same problem...you can see it in the DaG 6.5 Kitchen thread. I tried flashing to a known custom Rom that I know worked and it still had the same issue. I fixed it with the advice of someone there, the same advice that's here. Flash a stock rom, hard reset....then flash a custom rom. I don't know why that fixed it but it did.
Hmmm, maybe this will work. I had tried that and it did seem to work. However, after a few days I got sick of the 6.5 and flashed back to the energyROM. So I will give this fix another shot.
In regards to the previous post here's what I am running:
radio: 1.12.25.19
Rom: EnergyROM 2.0 build 41609
Hard SPL - SPL-1.90.by Olinex
Its almost becoming funny now. I did a soft reset so I could see the radio version and guess what - it froze again.
It seems like if I don't set everything up, it will last a few days, but sooner or later I get fed up with not having progs installed etc. and after I set it up - poof!
So here is a list of cabs and general things i do to setup the phone.
Hard reset - reset at screen setup - ROM intitial setup - device reboots itself-
-PPCPIMBackup (installed on ROM, just restore contacts)
-ChangeScreen or Gyrator / have tried both individually, not at the same time
-DredSensor
-KforTouchPro
-HTCWeathermaster Rhodium
-Gscroll 2.0 (beta)
maybe something else I haven't installed every time
of course, set owner name, setup e-mail, the rhodium world clock bug setup, general tf3d setup (contacts, weather, tabs etc.)
Add shortcuts from my sd card for previously installed progs.
I'm not sure that any of these are the issue. I have done this at least ten times. Each time I have noticed which was the last cab installed then freeze, I try not to install that cab, then it will still freeze, eventually.
I am going to reflash the stock ROM and stock SPL, then hard SPL and a ROM flash. I'll be sure to post my results.
i tried latest mystic 6.5 rom lite beta 1.1 and it froze within a day at the second splash screen and after about 1-2 min the screen turned white. I have tried the battery removing trick, but same results. I'm not sure what apps i have installed after hard reset...
i tried latest romeos rom 6.1 randium edition: it got frozen after some time...
same with both NRGZ roms: 1 and 2 version (standard raphael manila and rhodium manila).
Now i'm using romeos wm6.5 rom 2.101... will post if it freezes...
i havent tried this: "reflash the stock ROM and stock SPL, then hard SPL and a ROM flash" yet...

I had no luck with this solution, and it is not exactly what was described.
Actually the solution posted is to just flash stock rom, hard reset, then flash custom rom.
I tried the above solution and it still froze, now I am going to try the correct solution posted and see what happens.
Frozen again... I am going to flash back to stock rom, stock spl, see if it still freezes.
This works (for me)
Running fine for a week:
- Flashed stock ROM (O2 German). This replaces the radio and the OS
- Went back to stock SPL. THIS IS TRICKY, SO READ(!):
+ Olinex HardSPL will NOT let you flash back to your StockSPL, because it is write-protected. This kept me up quite some time.
+ Flash your Stock ROM
+ Then, flash the hacked 195 SPL mentioned HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502720
+ then, flash your Stock SPL. Read the Threads: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410150
+ Make sure, your SPL is neither Olinex, nor the hacked 195 in the third picture
+ I flashed the Stock ROM again just to be sure the stock SPL runs and allows your stock ROM to run.
- Flashed HardSPL
- Flashed Energy ROM 2.0 WITHOUT Manila, flashed latest Radio, installed cabbed Rilphone.dll
Installed Resco, Resco Today, MortPlayer - this is the SAME setup that got me caught the last time and now runs fine for a week.
This works for me. I presume some ppl get the stock SPL flashing wrong.
As i can read from other roms, it happens ONLY to Roms with the new rhodium manila,
so maybe, if you're tired of reflashing and hard reset, try one without the new manila interface.
Another suggestion: I have a different Opera now. Many describe they tried to start Opera, THEN it hangs and the phone gets stuck on bootscreen. I have 9.5 Build 15613 now and this one runs fine.
I encourage you to try energy ROM 2.0 without Manila. There seems to be a battery issue and someone uploaded a version with better battery life, you may try this, but i don't find the post anymore and this may have rhodium manila included. Energy ROM 3.0 is out now netherless, maybe someone can follow my instructions and try this with 3.0.
Hope i could help, this was bugging me SO LONG
Wow, thanks!
I have been running the stock at&t rom since my last post with no freezing. I will try this step for step, and I will try energyrom 3.0 just to let you know.
Wish me luck!
Well, I was able to get the stock SPL back, just as you described. Thanks again for the info.
However, I flashed EnergyROM3.0 and it froze after a few hours. Of course that rom has the rhodium manila cooked in, so I am going to try again with another rom. I will report back later.
from my last post i have been using romeos wm6.5 v2.101 with no freezing.. it has NO manila cooked in.
I think, maybe it has something to do with manila :-?
Same problems here as described. Using:
1.14.25.05 Radio
EnergyROM 3.0 WM6.5 50409a version
Started after flashing the WM6.5, reproduced easily after 1-2 hr of ROM on phone, it freezes (either by installing something, or Manila general use) then stays on information screen of versions.
Going to try stock ROM + reflash SPL then flash EnergyROM 3.0 again. If that wont work, i go back to 2.0 which worked well.
OK guys I am going to report this issue has been fixed (though not solved) for me.
I flashed ROMeOS wm6.5 v2101 and am also running the version of opera previously posted. I have been running for almost a week with no freezing, and (knock on wood) do not expect it to.
I am very happy with this rom and don't plan on flashing again for a while. However, if I do I will report any success/failure. I am curious to know if the problem is just certain roms, or something specific in them. If anyone else having these issues would care to post their results with other roms, it would be appreciated for the sake of the community.
I also wanted to note that I flashed the RRE wm6.5 non-manila version just before this and it did freeze on me. So it may not be related to the rhodium manila.
Anyways thanks again to all who posted and helped with this. I can't tell you how happy I am to have stable phone again!
Good luck and happy flashing!
same thing happened to my htc touch pro. i havent fixed it yet
