Hi, i have been reading a few posts regading tri colour screens, but nothing is helping. I can get the device to boot up with mtty, but then then usb port does not work so i am unable to HardSPL the device. I would say that my bootloader is corrupted. Is there another way to flash a new bootloadder without haveing an activesync connection.
Any help with this would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks

With a micro sd card!
I have taken the micro SD card out and the sim card, but still nothing
Do you try THIS method?
I had a look but my problem is not with the ROM, I am able to flash any ROM to my device with no problems, but everytime i reboot the device i have to use mtty and type boot to get it to boot.
But then i cannot get the windows to recognise the USB device, the error code is "device could not start"
Is there any other way to flash the bootloader without activesync?
Did You Try Storage Card Methode?
Hello all. I have followed the instructions to get wm6 and got stuck on step 9 of Karhoe's guide. Activesync will no longer see my device. so i cannot move forward. my phone is stuck on bootloader screen. After 'resetting device' in terapro. i saw the splash screen on my device then it went immediately to the bootloader color bars. everything else showed exactly what was on Karhoe pics. i just need activesync to see my device so i can proceed. any suggestions please. Thank you very much.
Activesyn will not see your device as it has been wiped clean of windows. Since you will need to be in booloader screen to install wm6, it doesn't matter if your activesyn sees your phone or not.
I ran into the same issue, i had to actually disable the 'allow usb...' option in activesyn so the romupdater utility can see the phone. So try it both ways.
enable it as suggested and just run the next step of installing the wm6gsmupdate...if you get some message saying connection error, then disable it and try again.
no activesync. Error [264]: Connection
thanks for the reply flashhsalf. it has not worked out for me tho. i tried both ways several times. enable/disable usb. i get same ERROR [264]: Connection.
im going to try it with a different laptop.thanks again.
Once I have this error too. Just reboot my PC and format BINFS one more time and all became fine. Don't know that is the reason, but this trick was helpfull
Have You re-enabled "Allow USB connection" @ connection options in Your Activesync??
got it to work...!!!
thanks all. i tried what was suggested all day...then when i went home i tried again with no success. to the point where my battery just died. i thought it was a paper weight at that point. but i decided to plug into the charger and the bootloader came up again. this time without the USB indication in the lower left corner. after a 2hr charge i took it to the same laptop which i rebooted. enabled usb then it worked! strange but glad i got it to work. Thanks again folks!
i updated to 6.1 but im experiencing issues with internet. ERROR
the remote party has ended this connection. this is the case with MMS as well. anyone experience this?

Xdabe if you actualise Radio ROM, before upgrading to WM6.1 you wouldn't notice that problem with an Internet.
Try upgrading Radio ROM for your device.
Gsmsikar once you are in bootloader, and have SuperCID, just start installing Radio ROM first, then OS.
Before someone comes and flames me for creating a new thread (*hide from DaveShaw*) let me explain:
I have created a Wiki page for users who are stuck at the SPL (a.k.a Bootloader, Tri-Colour screen etc.):
Kaiser_stuck_at_bootloader
This has helped out a number of users who have become stuck at the SPL but every day I see more and more users getting stuck and creating new thread, or going off topic in other threads.
What to do if you get stuck:
Read the Wiki Page and follow the advice: Kaiser_stuck_at_bootloader
If you have tried all the steps in the wiki and still have a problem, read the feedback from other users in this thread and any advice I give out in this thread.
If you are still having problems please post all the details you can about what you have done and what version ROM / Radio / SPL you are running in this thread.

Thanks to much I have learned from Master Jocky_W, I am currently working on hacking o a couple of Jockey's new HardSPL's into MFG variations. This will allow for the checking, formatting & fixing of OS flash memory blocks.
I am just about done I think, & then off to Jock it will go for his comments & keen eye.

Nice one, I was thinking MFG 3.* HardSPL would be good, but I assumed there was a good reason for them not to exist. Little did I know that's where you were hiding
Great work.
Dave
Good idea with this thread, congratulations.
Just to add something useful for the thread, here is my tip: (for n00bs, or a "newbie-n00bs" since I consider myself a n00b too )
No matter what, DON'T PANIC.
If your phone boots at least partially (the bootloader starts and shows R/G/D versions) maybe its not that bad
I've flashed few times "bad ROMs" and my phone stucked on bootloader. Luckily none of them was that bad that I couldn't recover from it.
What I do first:
disconnect the phone from anything you had it connected to,
and go into bootloader mode (camera button + reset with stylus).
It will show the tricolor+white screen, SPL version on the top and "Serial" at the bottom.
Plug in your USB cable.
If the "Serial" will change into "USB" at the bottom, you are most likely ready to fix the problem
- so flash your phone with new clean ROM now (I would go with clean stock ROM including radio as well)
oh, and don't worry about the ActiveSync info that may be displayed by the RUU app, because you are already in bootloader mode (RUU or KaiserCustomRUU etc, at first disconnects AS in order to set your phone in bootloader mode, thats why the warnings about AS being "green" etc)
HTH
this one isn't covered!
I go right to bootlader and see RUUNBH upper right!
my SPL is 3.56.hard
CPLD-8
I would flash my stock rom BUT i cant get a usb connection to work at all!
mtty doen't work at all!
hmm?!?!?!??

Does "USB" show in the bootloader when you connect the USB plug or not?
Dave
yep
yes, those words DO change. But nothing can be done on my PC.

Have you done the following to get MTTY to work?
* Download mtty.exe
* Disable activesync (connection settings -> uncheck "allow usb connections")
* Connect your Kaiser to PC using USB cable.
* Open mtty, select USB port and click OK.
* Hit ENTER twice, you should see the "Cmd>" prompt.
* Type the command "boot".
Are you using Vista or XP?
Dave
yes again!
i have disabled usb connections through active synch and killed ALL the mobile processes through task mngr. Still, usb port cannot be opened through mtty!
it's crazy! =[
also, when i plug in my tilt, i get a beep beep beep from my PC saying failure to cconnect to hardware. =[
VISTA!!!

I'm leaving work now, but can you trying flashing your carrier ROM from the SD card, that might do it.
Also, try the attached MTTY.
If that don't work, can you find a Windows XP Machince and try the normal MTTY method.
Dave
No Luck
Since I can't establish a usb connection I have no way of getting ANYTHING to my tilt.
I can't access my SD card.
MTTY says command error when I say boot.
I don't think MTTY is connecting.
Does my SPL need to be changed?
If so, how do I change it if I can't get a connection to my tilt at all?
I GOT IT!
i TOOK your advice to flash from my SD my naming a rom KAISIMG.nbh and using my PC to put on card. then i just entered bootlader. I flashed a random new rom (not at&t) and it worked in restoring my phone.
I didn't use a stock rom cause my spl didn't match. thanks for all your help man.

BTW, if you do not have the RUUNBH on the screen, but can't get OS to boot and you didn't flash my patched SPL's for prevention, I now have a solution for those too in my thread (also sticky, so easy to find).

nice update! really useful to all kaiser owners.
btw, you wrote:
"This method will not work if RUUNBH is showing and cannot get the OS to boot even once"
I removed second part if you don't mind, the method doesn't need that as a requirement. (and it will actually unset RUUNBH flag too if the loading of the special SSPL and the flash is successful, but for RUUNBH issue this solution is overkill, because for that "set 16 0" is fine.)

First, I’m using the ROM L26KDV12. I used the tweaking program that comes with the ROM and I hit done, the phone said to restart the device to get effective or cancel to restart later but I choose to restart the device. So, the Phone restarted and I stuck in bootloader mode.
I tried to re-flash my ROM L26KDV12 and I got the 100% result in the screen but when I restarted the device it was stuck again in bootloader mode. I tried to update the Radio but got no luck also.
So I decided to update the ROM via MicroSD(Dutty’s Diamond V1.9) and I got 100%(complete result on the screen again) but when I did the last instruction of updating the ROM via MicroSD(to restart the device), my phone goes off and I can’t open anymore..
Please I need help..
Hi Help me pls,
I've tried to flash my rom via ActiveSync. Every thing went well until i get the progress bar then it got stuck at 0% for ages so i disconnect the whole thing and tried to restart the process.
NOW I CAN'T ACTIVESYNC ANYMORE !!!! but the connection as "memory card reader" still working.
I went through all the post and tried to flash the ROM via bootloader with the "RAPHIMG.nbh" in my SD card ( already formated FAT32 ) but every time the PDA got stuck at the first stage "loading".
HELP ME PLEASE
I have similar problem, can't connect to PC anymore, but flashing with SD card works for me
have you tried different ROM images?

It sounds like you did not carefully read this.
That is also where this should have been posted. A new thread should not be started for this type of issue. I understand you are panicing. However, in almost all situations the phone can be recovered.
That said, Hold volume down and hit the reset button. It will put you in the tricolor screen. In the white it says serial. Connect it to your usb cord. It should now say usb. Now flash the STOCK rom.
be sure that battery over 50% then follow arupphental's
I have a friend with a kaiser and the same problem. can this be applied to it? i dont want to search through the forum forever...
I would start by going to the kaiser forums and checking the stickies. Search within the kaiser forum also works.

go to bootloader (tricolor on screen)& flash a rom, your PPC 'll be fine. when you flash ROM, PC transfer data through USB to PPC therefor not need connect by activesync.
I had the same problem after a faulty ROM from Vodafone NL, what I had to do is before I wanted to flash my ROM do a hard reset on my device (please back-up your personal data before doing this). After the hard reset, I could get a stable connection with activesync and flash my ROM
While the circumstances are different, my advice is still the same: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=481527

Stumbled upon this.. and yes the advise is good, when you run the flashing utility (i.e. CustomRUU.exe), it says you need an Active Sync connection, but you really dont, you can flash it anyway, it seems to find the device via USB regardless.
ufff!!!! to me yes found right, thank you thank you to first post. (flashing from SD)
Undetected
Well i had the problem where my phone wasnt getting detected at all.... i put the stock rom and radio but couldnt put stock spl on the phone with sdcard.... after trying different computers/usb wires/settings i returned it for a new one and this one works fine.
Hello guys please help I was trying to update my 02 XDA (Polaris) to a pcarvalo extreme ROM and I had reached 85 % then all of a sudden a power failure and I now am having a bricked O2 XDA that is stuck on HardSPL2 screen red,green,blue, white....now when i try to update due to no connection with activesync I can´t progress beyond the initial screen of detection... please please how do I put a ROM back on to the device????

Thanks but so far no success as its impossible despite killing all activesync processes to get MTTY active on USB. The XDA itself shows the change from serial to usb but the MTTY does not find it apparently as USB option does not become available.

did you run mtty from vista or win 7.....??
best is win xp....
Tried running both from Win 7 and XP on another machine, it does not seem possible for MTTY to find the USB despite all wce processes and winrapi etc have been killed !
Any suggestions?

Have you dissabled usb connections in WMDC (windows mobile device center) what version mtty you using ? i had best results with mtty_0513_Test.exe, you can also use putty.
Thanks Mekrib
I had disabled the USB connection in WMDC and On activesync on the XP PC and i used MTTY v.1.42 as this was the only one i found. Perhaps your version might help.
As much as i understand there seems to be a problem for the windows envoirnament to recognize the device as a USB device in the state it is in, amazingly does the XDA it self seem showing appropriate USB message when connected and Serial when the USB cable is unplugged. I was thinking perhaps to find a pc where activesync was never installed and then install the MotoQ driver and then try to run this MTTY.
Bye the way a link to MTTY of your version a believe is a test version would be highly appreciated.
Thanks again all of you guys I feel i am not suffering alone.
My best salutations to you all
Tariq
mtty works with vista xp win7 , plug your phone into pc before starting mtty.
out of interest what task are you going to run with mtty?
Thanks again
Unfortunately still no success even with this version of MTTY and I even tried out on other PC´s where activesync was not installed. Apparently the problem is that the phone device is not recognized in any system as a new device or even as a device. Only solution I can think of is some way to have the device boot from SD card if there is some way of doing this. I tried the NAND thing but again there one either has to flash something or use MTTY in my case none of these options seem to work as I am not able to communicate with the device using a computer through even MTTY
If someone has any other idea´s I am willing to give it a go
Thanks again every1

Hi there chris
I was hoping to do following:
SET 16 0
Task 8 (format)
Task 0 (boot)
Then hopefully device would boot as it does have the basic IO( Bios) eqvivalent doesn´t it?
Regards
Tariq
You can re flash just run ruupdate again, if it failed at 85% your rom wouldn't boot.Check in device manager if your phone is recognized properly otherwise you wont be able to flash.
Thanks Meknb
Thats the whole idea stopping flashing due to power failure at 85% has somehow made the device locked to going on to a boot till the tricolor screen with the info: Pola200 MPG , SPL-2.20.0linex CPLD-2
and serial/usb but no computer is able to detect the device.
I guess it has had it then...:-(

Can't you copy your rom to your sdcard rename it polaimg and flash it that way?
Great Idea but with the original rom O2 (UK) and 2 pcharvelo roms it did not work and when the XDA boots I can barely see but it does in fact write no image found and the switches to the tricolor serial/usb picture
Maybe I have to get more info on exactly how the image file should be in terms of name and location and which rom file to use for the microSD.
Thanks I shall look for possible image files.
Thanks again
Tariq
POLAIMG all in caps at the root of your card should work.
Sorry Meknb but tried even that with caps and everything it still say no image found.
Thanks again
Tariq
Success
Yes Finally its alive again !!
Here is what I had to do:
Take the original O2/UK rom rename it to POLAIMG.nbh and place it on root of microSD card
Then and here is he important difference in what i was doing previously just press power button and it then detects the image and completes the reflashing of the rom.
Alhamdolillah (Thank god) I thought I had lost it
Thanks guys all of you and I hope anyone else who gets in my situation will benefit from this
