AT&T Tilt Does Not Get Power & Does Not Boot After ROM Installation

First of all thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide me.
A while back I installed Alex.v52.ATT.162.Cube.ROM located at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=363865 and all was working as expected. I decided to install Duttys_WM6.1_5.2.19700_Hybrid_V2_1_64.08.21_CubeV2_ ROM located at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=388947 but upon completion all I got was the boot screen. Rebooting did not help so I reinstalled the Alex rom. Upon completion of the installation process of the Alex rom, the phone tried to reboot but nothing happened. It just stayed off. I tried to hard reset and nothing. When connecting to the computer and the power adapter, the charging light does not come on. I tried to change the battery and nothing helps. At this point I am out of things to try so I am posting in hopes someone has had this issue and was able to recover the phone.
Please note that I created a separate thread for this since the Alex rom thread was discontinue and Dutty is no longer supporting the Kaiser.
Thanks!!!!

[edit] sorry, my advice wount deffently not help you here. Just saw that I adviced on another issue.

Did you at all revert from HardSPL? b/c i assume you had it at one time since you flashed alex's rom earlier.

Can you get into the bootloader (hold down camera button when you reset with stylus?)

thanks for the post skat's. Nah man i didn't know about that. I have been completely away from phone/internet for the past 2 weeks so didn't have any link to the cyber world. Just got back on yesterday and really hadn't have time to comb through everything i missed so far.
That is a bummer but i guess thats his to decide. I don't plan on getting a diamond but i hope he will cook for touch pro when that comes out.

zeezee: The phone had HardSPL v1 and I did not do anything to update or change it.

One thing I did notice when I removed the battery and used a friend's phone to test if it was working was that it was at 40% and I know that when installing a ROM it calls for the battery to over over 50%. Could this have caused the issue. I did charge it to 100% afterwards and put it back on the phone with no success.

Unplug the device, remove the battery, take a nap (longer the better), replace the battery, then try powering it again, i had the same thing happen to me when i tried to cooking a ROM, scared the crap out of me. Thought i bricked my phone. but it came back to life after the cycle. You have to make sure that all the juice is gone from the unit, just changing the battery may not have enough time to discharge it, also make sure that the sim door is close and there is no SD card installed, after i got it to turn on i had to flash my device with a SD card cause the USB didn't work.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck

No luck!
Thanks everyone for your input but none of the suggestions worked. I guess next step is to put it up on ebay for parts

Were in the same boat

Camboy06 please do let me know if you find a solution. I only had my Kaiser for a month or so. This obviously hasn't happened to many folks so finding a solution wont be easy.
Thanks!

Try This
Holding the 2 soft keys and pressing the reset button. If not that try holding the camera button and pressing the reset button.

Happened to me too last night. Similar anyway. I was using skype and charging my phone from the charger then it just stopped charging. I soft reset and it still didn't work. Hard reset and that didn't work. The USB port is dead. I'm going to try flashing from the SD card. Maybe that will flash I'm sure but we'll see if it fixes my problem.

Problem with HTC Hero Roms only on MT3G

I am only having problems when i install any Hero Rom. After I install the Rom on my newly rooted MT3G and I put the phone to sleep using the red hang up button my screen gets jumbled. Every other rom this does not happen with, only Hero roms. Every time I try to take a pic of my screens the picture comes out normal but the screen that I am actually seeing is blurry from the text to images. I am sorry if I am not clear, I will try to take pictures a different so you can see

Yes. The pixellation that you're talking about happens to all myTouches as far as I can tell. Does anyone have any insights?

have you tried the Fatal1ty or Evil's rom?
it's the two I've had success with.

Haven't had that issue so far, I've used JACxHero and Drizzy's No Name Hero.

Trying Fatal1ty....
Trying Fatal1ty's now.. but JesusFrek's had the same issue as the ION ROM, pixilation distoration after unlocking the phone...
Such a shame, it was really responsive also

I have tried everyone but the fatality rom. I am trying it now, hopefully this one will be the lucky one

Fatal1ty (forgive me if I spelled it wrong) works soo far
Here is what I have tested (this usually produces pixelation:
1) Locking the phone through the call end/power off button, then waking it up via the "menu" button
2) Plugging in the charger while the phone is "asleep"
3) Rebooting the phone.
So far, so good with Fatal1ty... so now the question of the hour is.. why is this happening on some ROM's but not all (i dont know Java.. at all.)

Fatal1ty's rom works good so far, I am not having any trouble with pixalation while running it. Yes the question now becomes why does this happen?

Actually, the question is why is it affecting only certain people? Like I said, I've got a MT3G and have not seen this issue with 2 roms that have had it for other people. If there's anything specific I can provide, do tell.

i think i read somewhere this is due to compcache or swapping not working properly. try to reformat your sd card with the 3 partitions

I did that with a fresh 8 gig class 6 using Ra's recovery. And another I did with parted through my G1 and the problen still persists. So not quite sure that's where the problem lies.
I tried both cc and swap versions of qtek's to no avail. And those were both on newly reformated cards
[Edit] - sidenote: when android first came out we ran a ported rom on a Touch perfectly. When we tried ports for the Touch Diamond, this pixelation occured. I must revisit that to maybe shed some light. I know there are hardware/software differences. But worth a try. Lol

QTEK
Qtek's works great for me. VERY responsive, and no pixilation at all. had it for 3 days now on my Tmo mt3g

this doesnt help the issue. i also get the pixeljumble problem with my MyTouch usually when it goes to sleep and i then press the menu button.
another issue is when i make calls i somehow get disconnected a minute into the call and sometimes the phone even restarts while im in the middle of the call. any reason why this would happen

My MT3G is doing the same thing. Only problem is I completely erased system, boot, data, system img's and I STILL get pixelation. I am experiencing this even on non Hero ROM's including cyanogen's and everything else. Anyone experiencing the same thing?

he only rom that is working without pixelation for me is Fatal1tys Hero. Is there a solution to why this is happening, or we have to live with this?

eViL Hero Rom works for me also. Much quicker than Fatal1ty's rom in my opinion. No luck with any others though. I'd love to get no name hero working because when it's not pixelly it's fast as hell!

Nothing worked yet.

Not to discourage anybody, but I don't think anyone can really fix this. I'm pretty sure it's a hardware problem (I have this problem on my Touch Pro too)

I realyze it, but i'm still trying to motivate people who may can fix it. You never know. I really want my wifi working.

help!
hello all,
as i said in the original post, mine started just like yours and now the bluetooth does the same. i heard that the same chip is responsible for both wifi & bluetooth its an IC or smthn, so whoever knows where we can buy this chip , plz post it here,cz there is no software solution its hardware 100% ty

@ OP
The Wifi sometimes doesn't work because of the same " Microp" error . Follow the guide and see if it works for you.
DISASSEMBLING your device will be different from this guide , find a video tut on Youtube .
Disconnect and reconnect everything back and hopefully everything will be straightened out.

Best of luck !

im not gonna do it
i wanted to try it but i dnt have the right tools to remove those screws and i dont want to ruin them lol , if it works with anyone il send mine to some cellphone shop and he will do this work for me , il tell him the technique lol .
cz we dnt have HTC spare parts in here , so hope this works
thanks man btw

Hello,
I've got the same wifi-wont-turn-on problem since a coulple of months. I already tryed several radios and roms but without any succes.
Today I disassembled my phone, unplugged then plugged many times the mother boad, but the problem is still here
I know my phone fell on the floor someday, but I'm not sure that's why the wifi won't work anymore.

I have got the same problem bluetooth works fine but wifi dont

Bad news
my bluetooth used to work fine 2 , but then it died just like the wifi so get ready to lose it my friend

I had something like that with my Blue Angel, i was clicking on wifi in connections but nothing was happening. i was always fixing it with starting it from the wireless lan settings (where u set energy or quality). u can choose to start it from there (on the first screen). i was doing it few times and either was starting, either i was going back to connections again and start it from there and then it worked normaly. was some problem with the blue angel itself. i have no idea if this might help but u can at least try, just click both buttons few times and fingers crossed

bricked epic, please help :(

ok so its really only half bricked. it started after i flashed the 1.6ghz ROM...my data wouldnt kick in. a clean wipe and flash, i opened the market to begin my restore of apps and contacts, and when i tried to sign into google, it said "cant establish a reliable data connection" okokok dont panic, i wiped dalvik, and rebooted to no avail i turned 3g on and then off, no go. i tried signing in, and then opening the browser to kick the 3g into drive, and still no joy. i noticed that the upload arrow was the only one being colored in. i called sprint, and they had me do a master reset and STILL nothing. so in a last desperate attempt, i am trying to ODIN and it keeps getting stuck on factoryfs. i googled it and found a few threads involving it, but no real solutions (i rebooted and changed ports before even googling it)
im sorry if this is uninformative ive been working on it for 2 hours and my brain is numb so please if you have any ideas i beg you to share cause im starting to get worried
obliged

hi there i tried this and it didnt work, still stuck on factoryfs
im gunna take that as a hint it might be a bad download of the tar/pit? imma redownload and see what happens

Try a full redownload of the tar. Make sure it's about 255MB or so.
Restart your PC, the phone and Odin. Put the phone into download mode, start Odin, and only THEN plug it into the PC.

I heard that sometimes removing your sdcard before odin may work.. may not do **** but worth a shot. I've had good luck with odin personally.

Okay, I had this happen to me last nite.....Depending on where you got your instructions from you might be putting the TAR file in the wrong section. Please make sure that you are putting that TAR file in the PDA box and not PHONE....I am assuming that around 35% or so it'll just stay at Factoryfs.rfs...Correct? This is probably why so check that out and also make sure that the only two boxes checked on the left are "auto-reboot and debug en"...you should be good to go.

Odin is a very technically retarded program, as it gives limited output as well as ridiculous requirements to get it working correctly. I have had it work flawlessly sometimes and not at all others, so keep at it and eventually it will work, just try every possible combination of settings you can think of and restart the phone/computer multiple times if things still seem to lock up. Hope you get it fixed, I've been there and it sucks!
Sent from my Xtremely Syndicated and Emotionless Epic 4G

I used Odin this morning with no issue at all. I battery pulled, and pulled out my sd and left it out until i got my phone back to factory settings. Also restarted my PC before trying running odin. Worked great for me hopefully will do the same for you.

You know I had this SAME EXACT problem! So im sure you wanna know what was up, well, try going to menu,sdcard: see if the sdcard is greyed out in unmount, and format. If so, re-insert your sdcard.. Hope that helps
Oh BTW, if all your trying to do if go back to stock, all you need is the "MD5 tar file for DI18". Put that file in the PDA section, and over to the left there should be 2 boxes checked, 1 should be "reboot" and the ONLY other 1 should be checked is the "Debug" box! MAKE SURE that no other box is checked. Another thing, you can obtain the "DI18" MD5 tar file from the sticky wicky page....

Ok, check this out. I had the exact same issue. My phone freaked! Lemme ask this, did you phone have problems transferring large files (i.e. roms and such) when you would mount it before? Turns out with me, for whatever reason and I'm assuming software. It was an issue with my computer that screwed me. At least try this, get your laptop or any computer that you haven't used to mod or connect your epic to. Download the Samsung USB drivers to it and odin. I found that Odin3 v1.3 works the best. Here is the zip which has everything you'll need for odin h**p://rapidshare.com/files/429741564/Odin.zip . However you'll have to get the samsung drivers on your own. As soon as I used a computer that I had not used to previously mod my epic before, it worked flawlessly. Just get the phone into download mode. Wait til odin is on and then connect it. Only check debug. You should not need the pit file with this, only move the md5 file into pda. That was all I needed. I hope this helps.

Sounds like you've tried alot of the "standard" fixes. The only thing I don't see mentioned is the usb cable that you used. I've seen numerous posts where a cheap 3rd party cable would cause hangs during the ODIN transfers. Are you using the cable that came with the phone? If so, do you have another good quality cable to try?
Good Luck!

oh wow...all the responses! you guys have been amazingly helpful, ill be forever greatful.
good news! odin decided to work this morning, it was definatly a bad download (the .tar was like 5kb lol) and i got my phone up and running
bad news! still no data. i dont understand how an odin couldnt fix any possible software issues....is sprints 3g down, or is my radio shot??
i can still make calls and texts and receive them, but for the life of me cant sync my contacts and i have about a billion ppl calling my today (my day off )
ahhhhhh

I had that problem once, I think is was some stupid fix. I did a couple things.
1. I called sprint and they did a re-activation-- I dont recall that working right off
2. In the browser it asks for your phone number the first time

Then it seemed to work.
After that I have had no problems, even after flashing new roms.

Four buttons in the notipanel. If they were customisable or something, or you could scroll and there was more, id like it...but it seems other han wifi, they chose the 4 shortcuts I use the least. Are these changeable or removable?
I asked this on a while back...about swapping the camera and power button. I find that when its changed in the .kl that when I turn the screen off it turns right back on...and if its off for a while, it lags when being turned on. Has anyone else tried this and suceeded? What was your method?
Thanks again guys!

My turn! Odin not working.
Edit: Never mind. johnyardavid's download of the newer Odin fixed it for me. Thanks so much!

Samsung Infuse Bootloop?

A have a link to a video that I would appreciate you to check out. My Samsung Infuse 4g shut off randomly during use and constantly reboots itself. The rest is explained in the video's description.
*i can't link because I'm a new user.. However.. The phone shuts off and pulls up the Samsung screen, i have flashed a custom CM9 ROM onto it, however it ran fine until it just randomly shut off.. I don't know why it did it. But now I can't get it into Download Mode or into it's Clockwork Recovery.. I'm not sure if it is bricked or if there is any way I can fix it.. The video is titled "Samsung Infuse 4g AT&T (Please Help)" it will either be under Brandon Meadors or androiduser360. Please and thank you for help.
Thank you so much for any help you can give.

Hi M8! Yesterday i posted a thread about the very same situation, i have two motherboards with that same issue. My guess i that youre not used to flash cell phones, so my guess is also that it means that you dont have develop good soldering skills. Theres a development made by a guy named Adam Outler in here called Unbrickable Mod. He is very highly skill developer. I have the same issue you have right now with a couple motherboards i have. And im going to apply that mod today to see if i can restore my cell phone back. If it works ill let you know, so that maybe you can find a way to do it. If thats the case, i suggest you to read, read, and keep reading lol... Theres a lot to learn about when we deal with situations like that. Ive never deal with something like that, but ive done UnbrickableMod many times already. So ill let you know

Well you can always use a usb jig if you want it will boot your phone into download mode then flash to stock.
Heres a good link on how to make one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604707

Yeah its a good idea Ty113096, the problem is that the JIG doesnt work either. When you insert the JIG the phone will get to download mode ok, but then a couple seconds later it will reboot and the bootloop goes on and on. Oh! By the way UnbrickableMod didnt solve it! The phone will do pretty much the same when the resurrector is applied. Very strange situation but such is life i guess...

Thank you guys so much for the help.. So.. Is this unfixable?

If it does then your problem is the power button.
