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.

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

yes you correct you need the driver ..... what i meant to say is you dont need activesync in runing state.......but you do need activesyc in the pc in order to flash.....
thanks guys
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

Yeah I didn't know that either, I started to freak once i saw activesync wasn't picking up the 8125. But it's good to know that you don't necesarilly need it up and running.
Well, after hours of research and searching and reading, I finally decided to flash my T-Mobile Wing. Yay! First, I did Hard-SPL from HERE and followed the instructions to the point. The CanonYang splash screens came up and my Wing loaded into Windows Mobile just fine. From there, I installed ASerg's policies again and ran Itje's Touch-IT Lite for the Wing "1__UPGRADE_ROM.bat" and followed the instructions it prompted me with. An error screen came up on my phone saying "Unknown Status" but I just left it alone. After about 10 minutes, Itje's RUU completed and I hard reset my phone.
Now, only the first CanonYang splash screen comes up and my phone locks up there. Did I just brick my phone? What do I do to fix this?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
*EDIT* In my haste and fear of the "brick", I chose to post a thread rather than do the obvious that many will most likely state. If it helps my situation, please note that it's nearly 5am in Chicago, I have not slept yet, and I'm pretty much terrified I just made a $300 paper weight. I'm certain many of you would do the same.
Yes, I did fix my problem... and yes, I found my answer by searching the forums... and yes, I will buy you all cookies! Itje gets a candy bar though
lol soz
press the camera button and at the same time use the stylus to push the reset ..... a colourful screen will come up ...... connect it to your computer and run a official rom..... you can either look from some or get windows mobile 6 from htc.com if you sign up to the eclub and just find it from there.
hope this helps
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!!!!

Thanks Captain Productive.
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.

Well done.
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.

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).

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.

If so where?

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.

Hello Mates!
Yesterday, i did some experiments with my hd...
I security unlocked it and tried to install a modified(by myself) Topaz-Radio.
Now the device is DEAD.
It stucks in the "Smart mobility"-screen.
I can NOT GOT TO BOOTLOADER anymore. When i Press VolDn + Power, it does absolutely nothing. Trying to Hard-Reset the Hd results in Vibrating three times and nothing more.
Just turning it in or soft reset, results in the "Smart Mobility Screen Stuck"
I think i have to send it to HTC and hope they fix it for free ;-)
Any other ideas anyone? I think i really made it to brick my Hd...

Of course i did, but i even cant get into bootloader. the phone doesn´t even start with volDn + Power/reset.
And the PC doesnt recognize anithing, so o can´t flash via USB.
i think i killed the bootloader somehow?! ;-)
Greets, Tommy
what about BLACDIAG
Blacdiag also doesn´t work, because i cannot acces bootloader!
BUT: its possible to hardreset now(i just didn´t push the volDn hard enough before!!) when i perform a hardreset(VolUP+VOLDN+Reset or Power) i can see the bootloader for a second, the i can hardreset. hardresetting takes about 10 seconds, then after restart(volUP) its again stuck in "smart mobility"-screen.
pressing volDn+power or reset doesnt have any effect, the mobile still does NOTHING-no vibrating, no turning on-nothing...and after that, i have to take out the battery to start it again(power only or Hrardreset)
the bootloader is still here(olinex 1.56), i just can access it.
IST THERE A POSSIBILITY TO GET FROM THE HARDRESET-CONFIRMATION-SCREEN BACK TO BOOTLOADER WITHOUT A RESTART?
i ithink it hates me for getting flashed nearly three times a day
thanks to all, Tommy
If you can hard reset, right when it asks for reboot, the screen goes blank, quickly hold the volume down button only... hopefully it will get you into the bootloader...
Good luck...
you said that the plastic has gone on the vol dn button, what does it look like where the plastic used to be , is it orange plastic looking of can u just see a metal contact?
when your device hangs when booting or cannot even get into bootloader just send in your device to service center
@James62370: Already tried this. for some reason, it doesnt work-same reaction like i try to (volDn+power). it just doesnt start up, the screen keeps black.
@sgilesuk: cant see orange plastic, i think it is the copper of the contact, look at the, very bad, pic
@technician-2s i´m afraid, that i will have to do this, but i thimk they will not fix it for free :-(
thanks to all again
Have you tried to return device to orginal stock rom, i.e. rom which was on device when you bought it.
You don't need to be in bootloader or have phone sync'ed to flash this rom. It doesn't even need to say 'usb' in bootloader. Only works with original rom though
yes also tried original rom, the problem is, that my computer doesn´t recognize the device.
thx, tommy

i doubt the phone is unfixable had mine in some bad states before so fingers crossed everything works for you
ok with how you have it at the moment you have to be really specific with pressing the Vol down button make sure you press in the centre where the black dot is, you should be able to feel the difference between bein pressed and not pressed, should still feel like a button.
My button is one step worse then yours i dont even have the orange bit there for the button, just the metal contact underneath and i can still get to bootloader . just have to use a bit of chewing gum wrapper to make the contact on the volume button
someone always makes a bad mistake.
Do NOT hold the power key for long, just one single press.
to all:
many, many thanks for your hints and tips. unfortunatetly none of them worked, because i can´t acces bootloader(tried nearly 200 times). also my pc doesn´t recognize the device(win7 or XP), tried lots of cables and alternative drivers.
now i´m using my girlfriends hero and get my hd to repair-center, hope it will not get too expensive.
@bulldog: lesson learned? I will do it again and again and...before my first WM-phone(trinity), i killed several nokias and siemens-phones
next time i will be more careful and listen to warnings of the pros --> lesson learned
