Alright, so I've been lurking on this forum for quite some time now. I've flashed, reflashed roms. I thought I had a handle on everything but I guess I was wrong. I've been away from a Window's computer for quite some time now. And I recently saw the new 3.3 rom from the gods of xda. Well, I downgraded, to button's 1.01. and then here's where i screwed up. i forgot to go back up to a 2.xx rom. and went straight for the gold and went for the 3.3. yes i know i screwed up. well here's where I'm at now. still stuck with Button's 1.01 ipl/spl but i have the 3.3 OS. And now I'm not getting any active sync connection, my computer isn't recognizing my wizard. also. my 8125 is slow, i mean i tap the screen and i get nothing re-tap nothing eventually nothin happens, and it's stuck on the today screen. I should also mention it's G3, and yes, i unlocked it all the way. so now I'm basically stuck on the today screen with nothing to do. I foolishly finally tried to clear the storage and start from scratch, but now I'm stuck with no extended rom i believe, all the settings are wiped. am i screwed or what? Or does anyone know a way to at least get active sync back up and running, shouldi re-install it? alright so correction, I'm seeing that all the settings from the extended are showing up (i.e. the battery settings on the today screen, the one-touch voicemail/ 411 connect.) so any suggestions.??
edit--
also when booting up, it takes for ever. litteraly 2-4 minutes. And i tried soft rest via stylus, and then it went to button's boot screen shows ipl spl 1.01 and no radio rom but os was 3.3 and then it would reset showing the same damn beer mug, and then it would do it again. then the screen almost faded away and then it showed the same damn screen again. finally it will go to the crossbow splash screen. and no the battery meter at the bottom is showin -1%
you wizard is not dead yet
I did this...hurry...hurry, hurry but there's somethin' that you can do. Try flashing again button's rom by entering your ppc into bootloader, and then attach it to the pc. It will be recognized, and then you can start flashing.
Good luck. And from mistakes we all learn
hmmm
Well I took your advice, put the 8125 into bootloader. And then connected to the laptop. Still no active sync connection, however the 8125 does recognize it I suppose, when I plug into the laptop the USB appears at the bottom left of my 8125's screen.

sorry... i hit the edit button in place of quote.

bootloader mode?
i haven't messed up any of my roms personally yet...but i've read in the past that there is a bootloader mode that you can try to enter and reflash your rom from there. maybe it'll work to try and reflash back to the 1.01 rom you started with?
gotta do a search on here to find it...i think it had something to do with holding the comm manager button and the voice dial button and hitting the small button on the right side of the phone between the voice dial and camera button...
waaait
It is how it's supposed to act. It shouldn't charge...it's in bootloader. Just after you hear the "device connected" sound start the button's rom upgrade. that's it. easy as pie
Or you can start with any 2.xx rom. i think it's going to work with that too.
Ok man, I'm such a spaz, alrigh, there's no active sync, but I am running the no id update utility. And it's running on the ppc, so hopefully, I'm making progress.
Exactly what I said

Also, it's not showing that the 8125 is charging either. On usb, or regular wall outlet. What have I gotten myself into?simply put the device in booloader mode and flash the latest aku2 rom from your provider...this will bring it to live again. due to an hardware flaw wizards cannot be charged with out a proper working OS ....if your battery has drained you need to find an alternative way of charging it and then only you can flash the rom.
ps
activesync is not needed once in bootloader ....
with pleasure
As i said...some mistakes come in handy
@ Faria ... man, I think that if you don't have active sync installed, it won't work... It installs some drivers, the first time it goes into bootloader(for an upgrade 4 example), but it's true that you don't need "active sync" ....course, it's verry possible that I'm wrong...but I had a motorola Mpx200 and it wouldn't recognize it for flash until I've installed active sync

Hey, got everything up and running, thanks to all those that helped out, ever in chicago let me know, we'll go out for some beers. But the newrom is up and running and everything seems to be going good. And hey I wasn't torn apart buy the elite on here. So thanks for making me not look stupid. haha

there's a radio v2.61.21 for prophet, is there any 1 for wizard?
i am always ready to test a new radio for the wizard(as long as it doesnt screw anything up ofcourse)
i installed the prophet rom and i think my mda is done
Done as in working
or done as in "My, what a nice shinny brick you have there"
Jules
I would guess the "nice shiny brick" part, but maybe we'll get lucky...not a big fan of my 2.47 radio ROM...
I like to hear more about this new rom, but indeed, i guess he means that he dorked his device.....

Just go to ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/Prophet-roms/Radio_ROMs
What I don't understand is why always people come up to this forum claiming the "bricked" their device. I don't know how many times I flashed mine, it's still working.
Also I must say my Wizard is the best, because no matter how hard I try it never acts in the way people write here sometimes, why's that....
WM6 installed with 47.11
* no switching of and/or on
* MMS works
* Camera Works
* No battery drain, it's even better now.
* Wifi works
* No carshes in the last weeks....
* GPRS working
* Phone's not constantly "searching"
* etc.
I'm going to look for a uncontrolled and/or beta release AKU 3.8 and a half HTC Blue angel ROM to flash on my Wizard, maybe that will do the trick.
"edit" there's is one thing though: No matter how often I flash my Wizard, I still have the Molski splash, how to remove this ?
anybody ?

Just flashed this on a CID unlocked G4 wizard with Orwell's Crossbow on. So far so good, full signal strength where I normally get it. Bundled utility works fine with the upgrade. About to test the power up thing by disabling batterystatus.

You have to commit to the flash! If you start it, let it finish or don't start at all!
Take out your battery, put back in your battery, turn on your device, connect to your pc and reflash the SAME radio rom!!
This will atleast get you out of the bootloader cycle.

I think he was just joking...
installed the radio. works but no battery indicator anymore. battery status won't overclock either.
The strange thing that i encounter with this rom is also no battery indicator and no battery status, but most important, when i call to a voiceresponse system and i have to make a choice in a menu, let's say the voice says choose 1 to bla bla bla, then i press one but nothing happens. So i went back to radio 2.47.11 but the problem remains. How could this be? Could this have something to to with sending dtmf signals? Anyone knows how to make this work again?
Also with that new radio the battery isn't charged anymore.....
Downgrade to radio 2.19
the reason i thought my device was done because I was unable to charge the phone, I was unable to communicate the phone to active sync. But anyway worked things through and out and went back to 2.47. At least i took the plunge and installed it.
Anyone got from MyQtek new 2.61 radio ?
do the prophet radio roms work on the wizard?
I installed the 2.23ROW Eng on my Treo 750 yesterday. I shut down the computer at the point where the installer says to make sure you complete the list of tasks before hitting continue. I figured it was just an unnecessary step, as WM6 was on the phone. I know now that another part of the phone does not get updated unless this happens.
Now, I'm stuck without a way to finish the flash. ActiveSync won't connect, so I can't reflash it. The only thing I can think of is to do the SD card method, but I don't have an SD reader on me, and I can't freaking get ActiveSync to connect so I can't copy it over that way!!
Can someone help me out? Oh, and I already disabled the "Enable advanced network functionality". That didn't help. The phone works fine and all, but I cannot customize it with cabs at this point.
R U sure you can't connect at all - or is it just not finding your user?
When I upgraded my 750 (using the SDCard method), somehow it created a new/different user for me on the phone.
My "workaround" was to get the phone and my ActiveSync to both use the same user.
More details please...
No, it absolutely would not connect. I ended up just using the flash card method to get it fixed. Then, I was able to reconnect and get the full 2.23ROW installed. Everything seems to be working just fine now.
I do have a question, though. The phone is quite different than it was as an AT&T phone. For one, the power button does not make it sleep. In fact, I can find no quick way to get the screen to turn dark. If I put it down for a minute, it'll shut off. Any suggestions?
Also, what would you recommend for this phone? I used it for a while until I got my Tilt, but I pretty much left it stock. I've done just about everything there is to do to the Tilt, but so far I've only installed the HTC Home plugin for the Treo.
What are some other good upgrades?

Is there still a "Dial Lookup" option in the Today settings? That has to be checked for the power button to work correctly. The HTC Home plugin did that to mine as well... and it's fairly well known.

That worked, but it looks horrible. The HTC plug in leaves room for one item below it, and that "Dial lookup" thing takes two, so there is a crappy little scroll thing there.

The SD method does not load the entire update. I had to the exe method with the payloads.xml file, then follow through where it applies the Palm tweaks to get it to work right.
I think I figured it out... is that the "hidelogo" cab I've seen floating around? I'll try that now.
Geez, it works... but now the phone is stuck in a rebooting loop. It's only up and running for a few seconds, then it soft resets.

Sorry. If I was around before I would have told you about that hidelogo thing. I think you may have to reflash your phone again to get around the rebooting. Search around the forums.
When I ran into the same thing, I removed the HTC Menu thing and went for SPB Menu instead, even though I lose the nice clock.
Crap. Now it's doing it again.... this time, on two different computers. The AS icon turns green, says connecting, sits like that for a minute, then returns an error asking if I wanna run the ActiveSync troubleshooter...
Hello all! First of all, I am a total noob to ROM flashing and the like, so please be nice and bear with me. I am pretty sure I bricked my phone and I am sure hoping you guys can guide me out of this mess.
I have a Tilt and wanted to sim/CID unlock it and flash a cooked rom (had my eye on Dutty's latest Diamond). I spent some time reading up in the wikis, etc. and decided to give it a try. I was using Olipro's Kaiser SIM/CID Unlocker & Changer to start. I flased the SPL successfully and was in the process of patching the radio (Step 2) when - wouldn't you know it - I bumped the USB cord and knocked it loose from the PC. Uh oh. I tried to recover but it apparently did not work.
Now, the tilt will not turn on at all unless connected to the PC via USB. Once I connect the USB cord, the device just goes through a continuous loop of the splash screen, constantly trying to reset, but never getting past that point. Now, I CAN get to the bootloader screen by simply holding the camera button while the device is going through one of its resets. Once I get here, it just sits there at the bootloader until I unplug the USB, which powers off the device. On the bootloader screen, it shows the following:
Security Unlocked (at the top)
KAIS1*0 MFG
SPL-1.0.OliPof
CPLD-8
Now, since I could get to bootloader, I decided to try and reflash a ROM. I tried AT&T's original rom and Dutty's ROM. Both seemed to flash OK, but once complete I was still stuck with the same problem. HELP! Where do I go from here? I saw the instructions for frankenkaiser. Would that help? I did not want to attempt it without seeking guidance first. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!

To the Original Poster: You may still be able to save your Tilt. You will need mtty and a smart friend. Maybe if you look around you can find one. But, I recommend you compensate him for his time. If he is successful he saved you a $500 paperweight.
Would going through the frankenkaiser steps help?

Hmmm Probably Not.
If I have this understood correct When you reset your phone it goes directly into Bootloader? You can flash 100% a ROM but it still goes into bootloader?
Usually this happens because the bootloader thinks its still in flash mode. You have to use mtty to Clear that flag and boot it and All should be happy.

Well, not quite. First of all, when the phone is not connected to the PC, I can't get it to power on at all using any method. Once I connect to the PC, it acts like it is attempting to boot and goes to the AT&T splash screen. However, after staying on the AT&T splash screen for a few seconds, it simply resets itself and tries to boot again. It will continue in this loop unless I either hold down the camera button (which sends it into bootloader) or unplug the USB cord (which simply powers it off).
It should be noted that when I see the AT&T splash screen, I can not see the rom/radio version, etc.

Howdy, i have looked at all the guides, done loads of research into upgrading my Ignito.
I have tried to use the Olinex 1.40 and also the signed version....
But when i load it all up, go through the correct steps etc.. My phone screen looks like its just had some dodgy virus and looks like its about to die and then slowly turns off...
It then does a full reboot and its like i have a brand new phone again...
I am at a loss as to why it does this..
Anyone have any tips or tricks as to how to get around this problem ?
Any help at all will be very very welcome
Cheers
Sam
when you do the hard spl, you will only get a black screen and then it will reboot, just as you describe.
Hold the volume down key and then soft reset, if you see OLI anywhere, then it worked.
The problem is when i try the upgrade the screen seems to die aftera bout 10secs and then it says its fully done.
So there isnt enough time for the Hard SPL to be upgraded....
Anyone ?? Please....

Maybe you could give more detailed information, what exactly are you doing, what does the PC end of the process say etc.
Can you take any screenshots, what SPL do you have now - the guide suggests that 1.93 could be better for you than 1.4?
Kim
It says complete after about 10seconds and then the phone reboots fully.
The current one i believe is 1.93.....
I have tried both of the Olinex versions to no avail at all.....

I guess no one is helping because you're not giving us enough information, procedure, XP or Vista, have you tried Hard-SPL 1.93, screenshots or better description of the problem.
Screen goes funny and then reboots just isn't enough
Kim
Well i have tried both of the Olinex versions both the 1.4 and the 1.93.
I am using windows vista and the mobile device center, its fully connected as i do a sync etc before hand.
I then load the Romloader that does the usual tick this, tick that etc.
Once that has happened i click the upgrade button, it then confirms i am going from the current SPL do the one i have chosen.
I click ok and then it goes to the progress section where it says it could take upto 10min, the screen on the phone then looks like it has got a virus and starts to look like its dying.
Meanwhile after about 10 seconds it tells me that upgrade is done, this is while the phone reboots and starts like its a brand new phone again with no changes that i can see...
In all honesty i can't see what i am doing wrong
Scrath what i just put, as i was typing that i was trying the upgrade via my mates XP laptop and it now says in the bootloader 1.93 Olinex...
I am going to guess this is upgraded... lol

Great, glad it's sorted, I was gonna say I don't have much experience with Vista (an' I don't want to )
I'm sure that I've read that there can be issues with the Vista device center(sic), A quick search of XDA-Dev will help.
If you want to eliminate the PC <-> Ignito pitfalls maybe try Suillers method of upgrading direct from the device Internal Storage.

Okay, ive seriously tried about every possible thing on here to get my stupid phone to work but heres my situation.
The ATT Tilt i have was working great up until a couple months ago. At one point it just shut off and then went straight to the RGB screen with
KAIS1*0
SPL-1.56.000
CPLD-8
and "serial" on the bottom
Some of you might say "download HardSPL " or whatever and flash from the computer. Problem is I dont have ANY of the software or hardware that came with the phone. All i have is the phone and its charger. Thats it.
Ive tried flashing through the SD card, and it goes to the loading screen. I've used Dutty's, HyperDragon, and the original ROM as a test base. Hyper and Dutty's i renamed the RUU.nbh to KAISIMG.nbh and it goes to "Loading" and thats it. Ive even tried naming it KAISDIAG.nbh and still nothing. Stays there for a while but doesnt go anywhere. I dont know how long exactly its supposed to take to load the damn thing but every post ive seen makes me think that its just "It loads, flashes and you're done"
The furthest i got was with the original ROM i downloaded that was shipped with the phone. Not sure whether or not the version was correct but then again i have no idea what vers. my phone is or where to find the rom that works with it. Anyways, i used the shipped rom, named it KAISIMG.nbh loaded it, said Checking, then says "Not Allow" with some numbers n **** on the top (0028002), then resets back to the boot screen.
No, its not named KAISIMG.nbh.nbh im sure of it.
Its not a kingston sd or none of that.
Ive formatted, used fat32. (however, i cant make it allocate to 512. windows gives it a "default" allocation size which is unknown to me and i cant change it)
Whats wrong with this stupid phone.
Help me please.
ps. Ive searched the archives frivolously and havent really found anything that completely answers my question.
I solved my own problem.
The file i downloaded called "Tilt_RUU_Kaiser_CINGULAR_WWE_3.57.502.2_radio_sign_25.88.40.05_1.65.21.18_Ship.exe"
Fixed it.
Well sorta.
Since it was an exe i knew i couldnt use it, so i opened the whole thing with winrar, removed the RUU file, renamed it to KAISIMG.nbh and it worked fine!
Well thanks for all the good info throughout the site though. a MAJOR help for someone who thought their $600 phone took a **** on them.

I solved my own problem.
The file i downloaded called "Tilt_RUU_Kaiser_CINGULAR_WWE_3.57.502.2_radio_sign_25.88.40.05_1.65.21.18_Ship.exe"
Fixed it.
Well sorta.

Only problem is you still have your original 1.56 SPL but now have a WM 6.1 ROM so don't expect plain sailing until you properly update it fully (or have it reverted back to a full WM 6.0 installation).

Some of you might say "download HardSPL " or whatever and flash from the computer. Problem is I dont have ANY of the software or hardware that came with the phone. All i have is the phone and its charger. Thats it.

Yeah. You're right.
My problem now is that once ive reset the tilt after the update, it goes right back into the RGB screen.
What gives now?
I just want the phone to work. Is there a WM6.0 i can download??
If so where?

Doesnt work for me. I DONT have hardSPL on my phone already, PLUS, i dont have the cables n things to flash it on my computer. I just want it to work normally!
Did you even read my post?
The screen STAYS on the tri-colored screen. Once i turn the phone on, it goes straight to it, and stays like that. I cant even power it off. I have to take the battery out. Soft Reset, just does that; Resets. Ive even managed to get a nbh. file that reflashes it to the original rom. Once prompted for the power button to reset, i press it and it goes right back into the boot screen.
I need a way to COMPLETELY redo my phone through SD.

Uh, don't tell us you don't have a standard mini USB cable anywhere... you get one with pretty much any computer device you'd buy. You don't need anything more. As said, do an effort or find your way yourself.
