Before I get flamed for not posting this in the ROM's thread, I did already and "gadgetdad" was very helpful in the ROMs thread. Unfortunately the thread isn't that active right now and I am kinda stuck.
So here is goes, if I could get some help, any would be 100% appreciated
I recently flashed to L26 V3 (I am giving you 100% of all the info I know to hopefully give you all enough info). Right after this, I switched over to the new Alex v6.01 ROM (I have an AT&T Tilt, live in the states). More specifically the Cube version I downloaded from his 4share account with the radio 1.65.14.06. It apparently was a bad download or something because it DID 100% complete flashing, however it took forever (20 minutes to customize) and after that when I choose AT&T auto settings it gives me a "Error Database" popup.
So I figured, guess it messed up, will try again (I was going to try the lite one this time though). Unfortunately now my phone wont sync either, active sync says "ActiveSync can not connect to the Windows Mobile powered Device. To troubleshoot click ok".
So,
1. thought was Restart PC. No go, same issue
2. Clear storage...(have Rom re-customize) all same issues, no go
3. "gadgetdad" had me try finding a point during the ROM install to "reset it" so it wouldn't finish customizing the ROM (tried soft reseting and hard reseting in about 15 spots...ROM kept re-installing...no go
4. Also tried MTTY (can not recognize the device as USB what so ever).
So here is my whoa is me, I am on call this week (great time to have a ROM flashing addiction) with this phone, am I screwed? Anything can be done? Any help 100% appreciated.
Thanks all and thanks for trying "gadgetdad",
Don

Power down the phone. Hold in the camera button and hit power button and see if you can enter in to bootloader. If you can reflash with sd card.

Thanks a million man...And thanks for gadgetdad who tried to help so much he broke his phone with me
No worries man, Shows there is a ton more to learn when it comes to flashing. You saved me by showing that you dont have to use the micro card once in bootload. Learning experience all around, and now alex knows there is an error on his new build
Hi. Can someone please help me out? I was trying to flash my cingualr 2125 from wm 5.0 to 6.0. I was using Kar Hoe's instuctions and I used the typhoon instuctions instead of the tornado instuctions. I didn't know there was a difference at the time.
I did all the steps up until step 5 on the typhoons where it states you will get a white screen. At that point, I accidently hit my usb and the phone disconnected from active sync. I thought if I took my battery out, I could just do a reboot and get the reboot screen. Well I got nothing. I cannot even turn the phone one. I cannot even connect to active sync. I thought maybe I fried the battery and bought a new one and no luck. I have done a hard restart and all other things that I could think of.
Does anyone know if I had hurt the phone and if it can be fixed to get to the bootable screen. I would be happy just to get it to power on and stay with wm5 just to have the phone working.
I really appreciate your help.

Aah i remember doing the same once i screwed up my newly acquired tornado with typhone rom. phone was dead no bootup screen nothing, i tried every thing asked everywhere, thankfully i had warranty period so went to them with very innocent face and made up a story that "i switched it at night and it wont boot in the morning" they bought and gave me a new phone after a week. any ways GOOd Luck
Enjoy WM6
think your in trouble mate. Using the wrong rom and cancelling it half way is a big no no. Least you have a fancy paper weight
Similar problem
I have just acquired a tornado (in it's o2 guise) and it will only get as far as the wm splash screen. I thought trying a hard reset or flashing it with a new rom might revive it. However I tried hard reset (holding down the 2 soft keys beneath screen while pressing power button?) but it just kept booting to the splashscreen. The phone doesn't boot far enough to be recognised by Activesync so can't flash it. Can anyone suggest a solution? Would going to bootloader mode allow me to flash it? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks
try this.
1.switch off phone
2. remove battery
3. re install battery
4. hold camera button
5. while holding camera button plug usb cable to port
6. after some second u will see three color bootloder screen
7.format binfs
7. then u can flash correct tornado rom
you can us alternative method for going to bootloder mode
hold camera button while holding camera button press power button(not hold)
GOOD LUCK
Hi fayizk1
Thanks for the tip. Just one question, will this command CID unlock the phone too? It's just the phone isn't CID unlocked, I've tried using instructions and tools on other threads to change the CID value of downloaded roms to that of my phone, but all Typhoonnbftools produces is a 512 byte .nbf file which isn't good for anything. Any suggestions?
binfs not allowed!
When I run format binfs from teratermpro I'm told it's not allowed. What do I do now?
First off, try a couple different times. The "format BINFS" command is case sensitive - where your capital letters are makes ALL the difference. You may need to try a couple times, but I believe "format" is all lowercase and "BINFS" is all capitals.
Thanks djsleepwalker but I tried your suggestion and tried a few times in different cases but still got "Not allowed operation". (If all caps I get "Invalid command") I read somewhere that I'm getting this message because the phone is not CID-unlocked?
Tried a few times in different cases, still get "Not allowed operation". I read somewhere else that I'm getting this message because the phone is not CID-unlocked? Well I know that otherwise I would have just flashed another rom. Problem is I have tried using Typhoonnbftools to change the CID over numerous roms, the file it produces is only 1kb or smaller which is no good for anything. I feel like I'm running out of options...
Just try to flash with a legal WM5 ROM from the magnufacture's web site while the device is in bootloader screen. I hope it will work.
Good luck
This is my problem. There isn't one on their site! I emailed them but they were no help at all.
edit: Have also searched loads of forums etc. no-one seems to have it and there are lots of people looking for o2 roms.
Won't help

Hello to all, I am a noob here and have tried to adhere to all of the demands to do research and not post ?'s, but I am at a wall.
I have a Tilt and I ran the sim unlock and I was using the Sleuth 3.0 on it. Everything was working fine. I added the Iunlock cab and it worked fine as well. I then tried to install the icontacts, but i would have to go to program files and icontacts file in order to use I contacts. Well, wanna be innovative me thinks to try and move that file so it would replace something. I copied it to the windows appbuttons folder and deleted the regular contacts and nothing happened, then I put it in the start up folder and no luck, then I simply copied it to the windows folder not at the bottom where all of the extra files are. After that I tried to reset it and now all that I get is the bootloader screen. it reads as follows:
KAIS1*0 MFG
SPL-1.0.Olipof
CPLD-8
At the bottom, it shows either USB or Serial depending on if the usb is plugges up.
I tried running the sim unlock again and the dutty rom and both load to 100% but it goes back to the same screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please help and thank you so much.

You could hard reset if you altered something in WM to cause it not to boot...hopefully
I tried the hard reset and same thing I flashes for a very split second loading and then goes back to the screen.
Hard reset is both item buttons above IE and Mail with soft reset correct?

In case u dont know how to do it:

Or else search for MTTY. That helped a lot of ppl who got stuck in boot loader.

U need to hold the stylus in the hole longer, untl a message pops up on the page.
If it does not hardreset or help u, do what zeezee told u - flash a new rom.
OK, thank you all for you diligent assistance. I have tried the hard reset and it does the same thing...goes to black for about 2 seconds, then for a very split second goes to a grey screen and flashes loading then back to the bootloader.
I will try a search for the people stuck in bootloader and try flashing a OEM ROM, I will let you know how it goes. Thanks again.

Here is a list of OEM ROMs:http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_ROMs
I do not see any Mods here around or somebody yelling (search button is your friend,search the wiki everything is there, bla bla)To having a woman at home change everything.. Thanks..!
Before you try the dangerous MTTY method, you could try refresh a oem rom w/ the SD method
ok, I am flashing an OEM rom now, but what does it mean to do it with the sd method?

From youre sd card (memorycard), look it up in wiki. Moust of us flashaholics keeps oure rom on oure memorycard and just rename the rom/bootsplash/radio or whateva and place it in root then activate bootloader -> flash. This is an alternative for not using usb cable, pc and active sync
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=KaiserSDFlash
ok thanks, but am i correct in understanding that to do that I have to use the phone to access the mem card?
My issue is that the only screen I get is bootloader, no nothing else. I can't even turn it off. I can take the battery out to get a black screen, but any action to try something will take it back to the bootloader screen. But for some reason, it still allows me to flash the ROM, I think. I flash it on my pc and then my phone goes to the grey screen where it shows the % of progress. It reaches 100% and the pc tells me to click finished and I do then it goes back to the bootloader.

yes, just use a card adapter or something to acess youre card (if you cant connect via active sync) then copy the rom over and follow the steps in wiki. Beeing stuck in the bootloader some times aint the worse place to be stuck

I don't mean to argue with you here and you are right about research threads, but honestly it's easy to get caught up in frustration with the amount of information. Some authors are good at documentation and some skip steps along the way or extra links are in the threads.
I just switched over to Gullum's Diamond Rom and was I nervous upgrading "Yes" and did I read much that I could "Yes". Were the instructions to HardSPL, Jump were a little unclear "Yes" so people asking questions are legit to a degree but we shouldn't also be eagar to pounce on...

I agree with some of your remarks. Yes myself and others have jumped down people's throats yelling, "Search." One thing you have to remember though this is a developers forum, not a novice forum to help people making there phone look "cool."
Going into flashing / upgrading / modifying, you have to have a little bit of knowledge or time using Windows Mobile / Windows in General devices and machines.
Usually reading some background information can be a world a difference before jumping into this sort of thing.
I found the problem to stuck in bootloader. Thanks to all who have posted threads.

There are many capable people in the Kaiser forum that will help. If you have hit a wall, be patient & I will begin to answer my PM's in the order they were recieved within the next week. Sorry I can't be of more help at the moment, but family comes first as I'm sure you understand.

Aboslutely man. You go take care of your family. I will pray for God to guide you all through this trying time.
On the Kaiser note, I found after further studying of some threads, a solution to my issue where I was stuck in bootloader. I think this will apply to anyone that is stuck in bootloader with the usb/serial showing at the bottom and when they try to flash a new rom is goes to 100%, but the are still stuck on the boot screen.
After reading more threads, it appeared that there was some sort of disconnect between the usb and the phone. Since my PC was stating that it was successfully completing the flash, that shows that it was not getting any type of error from the phone. After reading a thread I simply blew in my tilt usb port and used my stylus to try to straighten it out as one of your post state to ensure the usb connection is straightor it may give mtty an issue.
Once I messed with my USB port, the phone came back to life and everything was fine. Everything was rebooted and all my info was lost however. I was even able to successfully flash a new ROM.
In closing, if anyone is stuck in bootloader mode and their flash goes to 100% and doesn't fix their issue, tell them to clean and straighten their usb connection.

Hello Friends,
I have been actively using Various ROMs in this section of the forum. I have flased almost each one of them and love them all.
I recently installed PDACorner ultimate v19 and it was working fine. I loved it.
However, today I faced strange problem. My touch screen stopped working. So I tried to realign it and it wasn't working at all. i could use the hardware buttons, but not the touch screen.
I did a hard reset and then my mobile stuck at the screen where it asks to "tap to continue".
and i could do nothing now.
Then i flashed the Simple OS to it and again the same problem. I dont know how to proceed now?
Is there any way to get through the initial touch screen condition which says "tap here to continue" ? My phone is within the warranty period but cant get it sent back due to unlocking thingy i did. Is reverting it back to the original condition possible without involving the touch screen ?
Please help me.
Thank parleyp for this.

Yes you can revert without the touch screen..you can flash the stock rom via usb or sd card and then you can change to stock spl either via usb using sspl since you now know what to do to avoid the alignment screen or sd card using cmonex's tools.
FYI--welcome.not is the name you need to give to a blank file and put it on the root of the sd card. Make sure it has no extension.
I had to put mine back to stock without the usb cable since my usp port shorted last week.
Hello, my friend.
Sadly, my Kaiser has the same problem since past september, and then send it back to Houston, Tx for repair and they tell me the flash memory has ben corrupted, and just like you i try different ROM's and one day the touchscreen fail after used a Rom from ROMeOS. The only solution its change the mobo and then use an official ROM before flash a custom one.
Fortunately, Mr. Pedro Gonzalez (HTC Technical Support Manager), give me a hand and my phone was considered in warranty, so the repair was a kind present from HTC. Thank you again, Mr. Gonzalez !!!! My advice is if you still have warranty, use it.
Good luck with your Kaiser!!!
Sorry for my poor english.

Thanks a lot

Reverted back to the locked State
I used the following thread:
Updated: Reverting back to the AT&T or HTC ROM and SPL for Warranty or return
and the Idiots guide to revert my phone back to the original state. I had to try JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe instead of the regular version.
I guess I am done with this part now.
Thanks a ton to you guys. Lets see what AT&T guys have to say about this?

Just a quick question? How do i make sure that my phone is locked and its now under warranty? Is there any software available that can provide us this information? I am sorry if it sounds like a noobs question but i really dont know how to check this before sending it back?
when your phone is off press the camera and the power button at the same time.
Make sure your phone doesnt say "Security Unlocked" at the top or at the bottom right corner it doesnt say Hard-SPL (insert number here) but that its says just "SPL (insert number here) "

Thanks a lot for the reply but I think that i am missing something... I did the following:
1. Turned off the phone.
2. Pressed the camera button and held it there while i pressed the power button (holding both buttons).
But the device started as usual. And i could not see the any such display. The display was the same as if i would have pressed just the power button. Is it possible for you to provide a screen shot of this?
My bad!
Whoopss! I tried it again, and i got the tri color screen which says following three lines in the red strip:
KAIS1*0
SPL-1.56.0000
CPLD-8
and following word in the white strip:
Serial
I hope it is fine now?
I got my new Tilt
I got MY new Tilt!
I am Happy
welcome.not
just simply create a 'welcome.not' file on windows open notepad then save it w/out content filename welcome.not make sure that the extention in not welcome.not.txt otherwise it wont work...put the file to sd card root then hard reset by pressing the power button for 10 second then boot again after about 5-10 seconds for safety....gudluck hope this could help you!!
I originally had my phone rooted but I wanted to update my software to Jelly Bean so I unrooted it.
For some odd reason, the software didn't update even after I unrooted it, and I've tried everything but I think
I messed something up because now I can't even get back to the home screen
It's stuck in the HTC logo white screen and I can get into the bootloader menu page by pressing down on the volume and
power key.
But no matter what I press, like I selected the factory reset but it keeps coming back to the bootloader page.
I just want to get back to my home screen.
I'm a COMPLETE NOOB that does not know anything about flashing rom or boot.img or those things.
Please help I can't sleep because of this
It's probably better to ask questions in the "One S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting" forum, in there you will find an ***Emergency Thread***. It would have been more helpful to post exactly the steps you took.
For sure it's recoverable - nothing to lose sleep over!
You will need to come up to speed on the terminological and tools that are used. My suggestion is to have a careful read of this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2076086. It has a reference to a toolkit - I've not used it, but it looks cool.
