For people with broken SPL's, (people who attempted to HardSPL when they did not meet the SPL requirements (>4.0.0.0) there still isn't a fix around. Since I don't have a broken SPL and I'm not about to break my SPL to test this, can someone with a briked herald try the following:

I once tried to unbrick with MTTY but i never got the correct codes to work...
Maybe someone has luck!
Hi,
It's not true that there's no fix for that. Please don't waste your time with known MTTY commands, it doesn't work.
Read my thread and you will know everything you need to unbrick Herald:

In the 3.* HardSPL thread there are two methods by Kyphur, try the second one - exactly as stated.
Please post any other problems in that thread.
@Mods, close this.

Closing Thread.
Please post in the corresponding/correct thread.
Thank you.
There are now a large selection of Kaiser Hard SPL's floating about. I am making this thread as a collection for all of them and the instructions for flashing them.
Explanation
WM Version - Different SPL's perform better depending if you are running WM6.0 or WM6.1. If you are using a WM6.0 ROM, you should be using a WM6.0 Hard SPL (v1 is recommended). If you are using WM6.1 any 3.* SPL is recommended.
Hard SPL Version - Most WM6.1 ROM's are based of a 3.* release by HTC / ATT. The 3.* Hard SPL version should match this the best it can.
MFG - Manufacturing. This SPL supports more commands (such as rtask a)
jockyw2001 - Any Hard SPL made by jockyw2001 (WM6.1 versions)
cmonex - Any Hard SPL made by cmonex.
DaveShaw - Any bootloader patched by me. Will be the same as cmonex's because I copied her changes from previous versions - all credit to her .
Force USB - These SPL's have a fix to force the USB to work if it is not working for some reason.
nostuckinSPL - These SPL's have a fix to prevent you getting stuck at the bootloader as often.

Instructions
If this is your first time flashing an SPL, take some time to read up on the other stickies (mskip's in particular) and wiki pages, this is more of a reference thread.
How to Install A Hard SPL:
Plug the device into your PC
Copy JumpSPL (either 1.56, 1.93 or 1.94) to your device.
Take out your SD card & SIM Card.
Run Jump SPL on your device
Wait for the bootloader screen to appear and "USB" to show.
Right-click activesync, go into connection settings and ensure Allow USB Connections is unchecked
Unplug your device from the USB port, wait 5 - 20 seconds, plug it back in.
Run KaiserCustomRUU.exe and flash the SPL
If you have problems with the above process, try this:
Download the attached files from the first instructions
Pull out the battery and reinsert it (this step *is* important)
Connect your PC to phone with a USB cable
REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !!
Copy JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe to your device and run it (make sure the USB cable is still connected). If you still get a white screen then reset your device and now try JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe and if you still get a white screen then reset your device and now try JumpSPL1.94-KAIS.exe
After a few seconds "USB" appears on the phone display
Unplug and replug the usb cable
Deselect "Allow USB connections" in Activesync connection settings
Now flash hardSPL (run KaiserCustomRUU.exe on your PC)
Notes:
With the JumpSPL you should *not* flash radio roms, OS roms or full roms. The JumpSPL is only needed to flash a HardSPL (or SPL)
Upgrading SPL via SD Guide - Only works if you already have Hard SPL.
Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)
Download the SPL you want to flash from the links above.
Rename the NBH file you downloaded to KAISIMG.nbh.
Download KAISDIAG.nbh from here.
Insert the microSD Card into the phone
Hold in the Power and Camera buttons, then press the reset button with the stylus for about 3 seconds until the BootLoader screen appears
It should say Loading / Update in progress and then to a screen saying SPL 1.00.OliNex
It should now say Press Power Button to flash or just flash the KAISIMG.NBH and then reset
At this point it should boot to the OS, if it doesn't then flash an OS (delete the previous KAISDIAG.NBH and KAISIMG.NBH from the SD Card and use Flashing Rom from MicroSD Card method)
After the Operating System loads, DELETE the KAISDIAG.NBH and KAISIMG.NBH files
FOR ANYONE WITH QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT THIS IS FOR, WHY YOU WOULD NEED IT, OR HOW TO PERFORM SPL PROCEDURES: Read This Wiki page
FAQ (Not 100% applicable to this but a good source).

Very nice! Thanks for putting it all in 1 place!
Removed. I flashed 3-4 times and it finally took. Thank you for your help. Anyone else have a preference on a HARD SPL?

Was just about to reply. Glad you sorted it. I've had problems changing SPL before. The second set of instructions using Jump SPL worked. Also cmonex's KAISDIAG.nbh method works everytime.
I'm using 3.34 Hard SPL for 2 reasons.
1. The ROM I'm using is is based on the 3.34 ROM.
2. I made it (with cmonex's help ).
Dave
I saw that. I am using it as well but was curious if the 3.56 SPL was better in anyway. Either way it is great to finally have a new SPL and it only took me 1 year.
thanks dave! i've flased it and all seems well. my keyboards only have 2 keys you have to press a bit more firmly than the rest rather than 9 with 3.29 so that's much better!
had trouble flashing via customruu so did the microsd card thing. kinda weird though, last night, i couldn't get the microsd approach going with 3.29cmonex. so i flashed via customruu and it worked. now with 3.34, i couldn't get the customruu to work, so i did the microsd approach. anyway, so long as it works!
Thanks DaveShaw, you've really helped new-to-Tytn2 people like me a lot. A good beginning to the ROM experiencing journey
3.34 hardSPL tested ok for my kaiser,thanks to Daveshaw.
nice post, can anyone post his/her experience with the SPLs, meaning if better speed, battery life,....etc
thx dude
Could you explain what is the major advantage of using your 3.34 HardSPL toward to the other Hard SPLs?
I still have no idea about those HardSPLs differences so I'm using latest(? 3.54).
Thank you.

All Kaiser ROMs (Cooked or not) are based on a Official release (some cooked roms are based on more than one). Here's a list of the official releases: Kaiser ROMs.
You'll notice the version numbers are all 3.* for the WM6.1 ROM's. People have noticed if you are using the SPL version that matches your ROM version you get less screen freezes.
Sometimes you can't match them perfectly, so a little trial and error can help you find the best match.
Hope this helps.

great work dave but i have to ask something...
is there such a thing as the ultimate spl? meaning it's a bit troublesome to keep changing spl's based on the original builds of our cooked roms...since they keep coming from different sources...
from ur experience, which spl is the stablest with the newer cooked roms..
i've been using cmonex's 3.29 since it came out and to me it seems compatible with any rom i throw at it...
is ur 3.34 the new 3.29 hard2?

No idea. I've been using it for a while now but I don't flash cooked ROMs much at the moment
Try it for a bit and it you like it keep it
Only cmonex knows what's going on inside the SPLs.

Sound's like the ROM is at fault rather than SPL.
Try a hard reset, if that doesn't work, try flashing a new ROM via the bootloader.
Thanks

Hi Dave, thanks to reply, as I said I think I try everything and everything I do fails including mtty process, I try flashing a new AT&T ROM via usb cable at the BootLoader screen and the process completed 100% and when restart of Windows Mobile 6.1, I got the message "the device is clearing storage..." and then the device make a strange "sound" and shutdown, I was Tried a hard reset, doesn't work, I tried flashing a hardspl via the bootloader but unsuccessful, when I try to Upgrading SPL via SD my phone stuck at white screen and said loading.... when I try to Upgrading SPL via SD with the same SD to another phone its work.
Thanks.
@neilus,
Since Dave mentioned ROM issue, I suggest you re-download again the ROM (just to make sure you got it clean and good) and re-flash. What was your O/S or ROM before flashing? The SPL is important to match the ROM version .. if you're from 6.0, then you need to flash a ROM that comes complete with SPL (such as OEM upgrade ROM)
Otherwise, go back to starting point and read through the newbies guide and this (especially for your stuck on white screen)

Hi anagarika, look this:
model : KAIS1*0
SPL-1.93.0000
CPLD-8
I was flashing a new ROM via the bootloader, original AT&T rom, everything work fine at the flashing process and finish 100%, when the unit charge and swich on going to first windows logo screen and with sound switch itself off (the sound is named "LB" I think).
Thanks a lot.
got a bit of a problem. Got above SPL installed. Tried upgrading it to hard spl 3.29.Every time it comes to 100% but old SPL still on. Device must be CID unlocked as it has custom ROM, takes other SIM cards and has above SPL.
Tried using Jumspl 1.56, 1.93 but no luck. This also stops me of upgrading the radio on it.
Any ideas
Try flashing with an SD Card... check out the HardSPL thread created by DaveShaw, in the first post there is a really good walk through and downloads for all the files. If you can't get that to work, post in that thread please. I, and many others, check it on a regular basis to answer questions just like this.
Also, double check that you do have 1.0 Olipro, enter boot loader mode and make sure 100% that is what it says. Also, what ROM are you running? Make sure you have a 6.1 ROM if you want to flash a 6.1 SPL or Radio. And please answer all of these questions in the HardSPL roll up thread by DaveShaw that is stickied.

You MUST use Activesync (USB connection) to flash the warranty SPL. You CANNOT do so via SD card.
100% sure?
Are you sure about that because i was told other wise... i thought i could revert the spl by changing the name to "RAPHIMG.nbh"? Also will ATT take it back because i got a new fuze and now have to return the old one
You can flash roms, radios & spl by SD card. But you're trying to overwrite hard SPL so you need to use the USB and follow the instructions given in the appropraite thread.
I did manage to change from hard spl to the warrenty one via SD card - it then bricked my phone as i had a rom/spl mis-match, and as i had no hard spl anymore i couldnt re-flash either (i couldnt connect via usb due a hardware fault). As i know 100% that this bricked my phone (all my fault - i read the disclaimers and played about anyway!) i would advise you to restore the SPL via USB, or take your chances with leaving hard-spl on.
Will ATT take hard spl?
Thx for your help but i cant use the usb because my fuze is messed up and doesnt sync or get detected unlike the new one i recieved.... You guys think ATT will take it with hard spl and not screw me over?
Who knows!
You have to take a gamble, send it back with hard-spl, or risk screwing the boot up completely.
Do you want to chance the tech seeing the spl is wrong (small note on 1 screen) or possibly seeing a bad boot (phone loads straight into bootloader & shows an error).
Its entirely upto you.
Need luck
Lol thx, i returned it with hard spl , wish me luck
