Touchscreen issue after flashed emonster ROM

Hey all. First of all, I'd like to thank all all the chefs creating ROM tutorials for newbs like me. I'm in japan and have 2 Kaisers, 1 is emobile's emonster, the other is from HTC and I'm using Softbank.
I wanted to extract emobile's ROM and flash it to my HTC so I would have 2 kaisers using emobile.
After going through all the tutorials, I successfully dumped and cooked the emobile ROM and created the nbh file. After flashing the HTC Kaiser with the emonster rom and powering it on, I get to the setup screen (it's in japanese so I guess I flashed the ROM correctly), but nothing happens after tapping the screen (none of the taps are getting recognized).
Has this happened to anyone after flashing? I tried a hard reset but the same thing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
some technical details of the emonster
WM6
Rom Version 2.5.881.0 JPN
Radio 1.63.08.26
Protocol 25.75.40.02.eMo
Re...
I'm in japan too. And I'm Korean.
Sorry can't well english & japanease.
But, I bueyed emonster 3. 28. 2008.
1 day after(3. 29. 2008) come this forum & flashing then using well.
Maybe You something wrong.
Try other rom one more.
Try to cook the ROM with the HTC drivers on it, (touch screen ones) because maybe theres a little difference between the Emobile one and the HTC one!!
(*o*!! i wish to go to Japan someday!!! *o*!)

I had exactly the same problem when trying to reconstruct the emobile rom. I had no luck resolving it I was hoping to get it working so I could try some of the english roms.
any drivers on that monster ??

Thanks for the suggestion....
Can you point me in the right direction on how to include the HTC Drivers? Is it like a package I download and add while I'm cooking? I googled HTC drivers but came up with nothing.
Thanks.....
Extracting them from a wwe rom and then cooking the emobile rom with them inside!!
(i think they are touch.dll )

Thanks so much for the quick reply!! I will try this tonight when I get home from work!!!
(Y) good luck, curiously, here is at night now xD
and a little question, does the emonster have the video drivers?? (for hardware acceleration )
by reading your first post again, a lot of ideas are coming to my mind right now, one is:
it could be the RADIO, that maybe is incompatible with the HTC kaiser, because the emonster has a different one or not? (f: 1700mhz)
and the HTC one doesnt have this freq.
so, maybe the radio is having issues with the current system because of hardware incompatibility.
No enhanced video drivers aside from radio weirdness it shoul be just like any of the windoze 6.0 Kaisers.

Thanks for your suggestion. I just recooked the rom with a touch.dll from an WWE rom as you suggested but nothing happens when tapping the screen.
You and Dejanet are correct that the emonster is on a 1.7Ghz frequency. So if there's any other suggestions you may offer, I'm all ears.
As Dejanet stated, unfortunately there are no improved video drivers
Thanks again...it's been a learning experience extracting, cooking, and flashing. I just don't know where to go from here...so close.....but soooooo far away hehe
do you know if emobile works on another frequency??..
if yes, you could try to cook the OS only, and use the emobile ROM with a RADIO from HTC. (obviously a compatible one, with your WM6 or WM6.1 )
give it a try ..
Since my goal was to get the phone switched to english. I tried flashing several of the OS only ROMS available here and ended up with a perfectly functional PDA but no phone.
could you provide the emonster ROM?
i'll try to get it compatible with the radio and a radio compatible with it..
We don't have access to the actual rom here is a link to the 4 raw files from a rom dump if that will help.
http://rapidshare.com/files/119668150/emonster_raw.zip
will sound really stupid but i cant (dont know) build the rom with the raws... (something is not working well )(( or maybe im stupid ))
dejanet: thanks for uploading the raws.
Isaygarcia: what files do you exactly need? Thanks for offering to help. Really appreciate it! And to reply to your previous post, no unfortunately emobile doesn't work with another frequency.
i dont know how to reconstruct the rom based on raw files xDU... (( yes im stupid..)) ((( but im just 18 years old --.-- )))

Help I'm A Huge Noob!

Hello I'm a big fat noob. I was wondering if it was possible to just flash ANY old wm6 rom to my 8125 after I have taken all the steps in the newbies guide up to the point of flashing. The guide told me to pick a rom. Can I use any wm6 rom? I would really like something more touch, like a diamond rom or something with touchflow. I'm using a T-Mobile WM5 ipl/spl 3.08 as used as example in the guide. It'son a Cingular 8125. If I can flash just any rom and have it be compatible with my phone, does anybody know a good rom to use? Please help, as I said, I'm a noob.
You must choose a ROM that was designed for your specific device as the ROM's are device specific - Diamond ROM for Diamond - Vogue ROM for Vogue - Elf Rom for Elf - Etc.... get the picture.
OK, thanks alot, I would hate to brick my phone over a stupid mistake like that! Does anybody know of a good WM6 Touch-flow rom for an HTC wizard? I hate the interface with the stylus and would like something more like the large touch buttons and display styles of the Diamond is why I wanted that one. Like I said I'm a noob and just not sure what I can actually use on my 8125

rom doing ma head in

hi all
well where do i start i've got 3.29hspl and what ever rom (and i've tried a few) i put on my phone it seems to be ok for a day or 2 and then it all goes wrong everything from screen freeze, sound probs and crash.
then it won't boot just keeps going through boot cycle sometimes it just freezes on the splash screen then all of a sudden it'll boot it's all just v random
I've seen that behavior on the Hermes. I know it's a pain in the rear but you should flash the stock WM6.1 ROM before you flash a ROM from here. And make sure you flash a compatible radio BEFORE flashing a ROM from here. The steps I follow are:
HardSPL 3.29 (only have to do this once for the Kaiser)
flash stock ROM
flash radio (I use 1.70.18.02)
flash ROM
Just a note,
You should specify which roms you used so this way we can narrow it down to the specific problem you're having. If you're using 6.1 roms, you should post the problems in the specific rom thread; same if you're using 6.5 roms. There are many issues and bugs that the wonderful cooks are fixing in their respected time. No rom is perfect, but the majority of them are stable and there are plenty of knowledgeable people in this forum that will be happy to help you as well as information posted.
Mod please close this thread!!!
aye sorry never thought o doing that. i'm using the v20 diamond rom at the moment i think it is a wm6.1
after reading one or 2 threads on freezing i upgraded to cmonex's 3.29hard 2 spl i'll try if for a few days to see if it works.
the funny thing is i have a spare back up kaiser and it runs the v10 diamond using 3.28hardspl it came that way and it works fine
just a quick note you lot ROCK i think this is the friendliest forum ever
well i've tried reflashing with diamon rom, htc stock rom and a few others and still getting some probs is there such a thing as a hardware diagnostic program something like sisoft sanrda i'm wondering if it is a hardware issue
What kind of phone are you using?
diamond?
This is the Kaiser, Tytn II forum.
Just out of the blur, could it be you ve mistaken the diamond with this one.
If you want diamond forum, here it is http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=428
sorry it's the ultimate v19 and v20 ma bad
NO no, i'm not asking what kind of rom are you using, i'm asking what kind of phone do you have? I mean do you have a Diamond, a Kaiser or a Tytn, A T-mobile Wing?
soz it's a tytn ii using spl3.29hard2 and ultimate x.v2 rom at the moment seems stable
but i'm still wondering if there is such a thing as sisoft sandra for pda

Of course brick is what you know but good news is it can be revived using one of the many methods in the link below.
COOKED ROM is a ROM built by someone using the OEM pakage with plus and minus of functions and inbuilt software.
SHIPPED ROM is the ROM which comes preinstalled in the PHONE.
CID Lock is Contract ID / Country ID (it means the phone is specific to this country only. (Language and operator)

There was a thread on this topic not so long ago. AFAIK the latest stock ROM is the O2 one in blue tone published by Da_G just after he got moderator title. It's version is 20779. Seek threads started by Da_G and you'll quickly find the one. Previous ROM was so called "Asia ROM" which is stock HTC black and a while before it there was Verizon ROM (red/grey). All of theese are WM 6.1 with TouchFlo 3D Manila.
Seems that Da_G started some threads with CLEAN ROMs and kitchens, not the stock ones.. or maybe I'm just blind and I can't see it
But I found something what seems to be original ROm on sunnysoft website
Just find the correct device and click Download
Unfortunately I see something disturbing on the website:
LIMITATION
PN: 99HEY054-00
(compare with the number on the label
under battery of your device)
In my Touch Pro P/N: 99HEY100-00. Does it change anything or can I use this ROM?
