I just got myself the Tilt today, and i noticed that everytime time i press the camera button, nothing happens...this occurred on the stock ATT ROM, so i upgraded to Dutty's ROM, and the same problem is happening..i press the camera button, nothing works. i checked the button config, and it is mapped to the camera...i even tried going into HTC Album and launching the camera from there, and that did not work either...
Sounds like the camera on the device is bad since it wasn't working before you did anything to it. Was this device new? If so you should have exchanged it before loading another ROM on it. Now you'll have to revert it back before you can send it in for warranty work.
hey, yeah i just reverted back...after following the steps, my bootloader shows
KAIS1*0
SPL-1.56.0000
CPLD-8
hope thats good to go...im gonna be on the fone with ATT 2mrrow, on a friends acount getting the RMA since im a tmobile user...dang, what a ****ed up day...
EDIT:So i went into the AT&T store today, got it all taken care of, i am going to get a replacement on the device, they are shipping it out 2mrrow morning!...strange thing is, while i was at the store, i was checking out the Tilt on display, i tried to start the camera, and it didnt work! i then soft reseted, and it worked again...it seems like there must be some sort of an issue with the cam...weird...

I picked up my Tilt on Friday, and it's been working relativly well. Last night, I went to install blackberry connect, and once I got to the settup, my phone locked up and turned itself off. Now, when i try to turn it on, I get the AT&T splash, it goes to the windows mobile flash, and never gets any farther. In fact, the only way to turn it off is to remove the battery. I brought it back to the AT&T store and they said they won't be able to get me a replacement until next week, but I'm going to need the phone up and running again by the weekend. Anyone ever see this problem and have any idea what to do? Thanks.
first you flash HardSPL on to it from the sticky in Kaiser Upgrading! Then you flash the the AT-T ROM on to your Kaiser and it should be good to go.
Have you ever used Mtty? If so then put your Kaiser into Bootloader mode and run Mtty cmd>Info 8 and see if you have any bad blocks if not you cool. you don't have to do this i just would like to see for myself if you do.
Well I'd rather not flash my rom, especially since they said they would replace it by the weekend (that is, does flashing void the warrenty?)
And I would love to use Mtty to give you an idea of what happened, but I'm not sure how. I tried a quick google but got no help. Thanks for the help and quick reply!!!

I realize this is a little late but this info may help others. The same thing happened to me. I installed BB connect then boom, Tilt never turned back on.
Solution:
If you are seeing the splash screen, (assuming you mean the Windows Mobile SS) then you DO NOT need to re-flash ROMS. Hint: If you are seeing the at&t logo prior to the Windows Mobile SS then ROM is entact.
All one needs to do is perform a hard reset (press and hold the right and left softkeys while pressing and releasing reset with stylus). A message should appear "This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to the manufacturer default settings. Press SEND to restore manufacturer defaults, or press any other button to cancel." After you hit the SEND key the ROM rebuilds itself and you'll be good to go. Hopefully you've backed up everything.
cheers
Ok so I think I have some sort of problem here. Previous Kaiser started to act up (hardware keys and keyboard stopped working even after a hardreset) so I took the measures needed to get the phone back to factory stock conditions. Got the refurbed tilt in the mail today and of course tried to get it to the way my previous tilt was. Here is where I think I went wrong.
I placed JumpSPL1.56-KAIS on my phone and ran it and got the tri-color screen and what not. I think after this step I was supposed to install hardspl onto the phone but I forgot that step and instead installed a rom instead. The rom installed but it was the wrong one (Dutty's Hybrid NO.7b TouchFlo Final vs the one I really wanted: Duttys_New_years_Rom_2k8_[DualTouch_v2]). At this point I noticed my error because I tried to do the same thing again but when it got the rom% loaded screen it just stayed at 0% and froze.
From here I went through the motions to install hardspl properly but got the same results as above (freezing at 0%). Is there any way to correct this? I would really like to switch this rom (not that it's bad, it's actually a very solid rom but not what I want). Thanks in advance for any advice!
*Edit* Also for some odd reason I have no sound from the phone when getting a phone call (and yes I checked the settings and it's not muted).
*EDIT* Ok I'm really sorry for starting this thread. I figured the problem out. It wasn't even hardspl I was trying to install. Not sure what is was. I got the correct file and installed and updated the rom. Sorry again.
you did many things wrong, but atleast its working now. I would bet all you needed to do was reset phone/computer. as far as the sound issue, it is found everywhere. It is the result of an incompatible radio.
I have a big problem.....
My phone hung this morning on the alarm. It kept on going. So I turned off the phone. A few hours later I booted up the phone again but it didn't boot to the os... it is stuck in the 3 colored bootloader screen
I tried reflashing the original WM6.1 rom. It worked.... until the cusomization had ran. After the customization reboot there was the bootloader again.....
Can anyone help me on this?
Info in the bootloader screen is as folows:
KAIS130
SPL-3.29.0000
CPLD-8
USB
Please help!!
First thing I'd do, is a bulk standard Hard reset on the phone. if it crashes again on the customise, then hard reset again, and soft reset before the customise kicks in.
alternatively, if you're happy to try a custom ROM, then flash it to a new one.
if these dont work, then its time to approach HTC, and see if you can get it repaired...
I allready did a hard reset after flashing my tytn and a soft reset before getting the customization screen. But every time it boots up and it wants to configure my phone. So I cannot get arround the cusomization
While re-flashing my TyTN II to the Orange WM 6.1 Test ROM I did the reset before the customisation...and what happens the phone resets itself to default. It seems that the operators have found a way to make sure that their customisations are added.
Mine is purchased without a account. So there should be no provider **** on it..... It's a realy weird problem though....
Could it be dirt??? I left the battery out for a few hours and it works for a short time. Putted my sim card back in and it stopped working. Reboot and it worked again for a short time but after te next reboot its over again and it wil not come back again. I now plan to leave the battery out for the night see how it is in the morning...
Anyona an idea (bump)
I've got the same problem.
Although I'm able to restart successfully the Kaiser randomly.
If you pay attention to the tricolor screen... it blanks the screen for a very short moment. Precisely in that moment, a message is written in the screen
" No imgafile file found! "
And then went back immediatley to the tricolor screen.
My Kaiser is HTC orginal, updated with the original HTC ROMWINDOWS MOBILE 6.1. I did not nothing special to it, I treated always it carefully... It seems a random Hardware problem. HTC is an awfull brand.
Now I have to go to HTC service... they will get my phone for a couple of months at least.... and I know (from previous experiencies) they work very very badly (they can give your phone back even broken!!)
Conclusion... HTC never more.
Did have the same problem. Asked and RMA to HTC. Shipped the phone on june 30th. Phone came back repaired yesterday !
This morning... the %$* red green blue reappear when I soft reset the unit.
Not very reliable, will have to buy another phone.
The kaiser was probably one of the biggest pains in the asses I've ever dealt with, and probably won't be doing anything HTC for a long time to come.
It's a 8925 tilt that I got right when it came out. Got the unlock code from att and been using my tmobile sim ever since.
Sometime last year, the speakerphone died.
Then, earlier this summer, the phone just up and quit one day. Would give the tricolor screen and say there was no ROM.
Great. Switched to my backup $10 nokia and it's been great.
Decided to try again yesterday. Updated to the latest radio. Tried one of the cooked up 6.5's. Already been on hardspl 3.56 since last year.
And it's been chaos. Initial bootup froze up at the HTC screen. I gave it 20 minutes, and then did a hard reset. It booted up, imported my sim contacts. Then it went on to setting up the internet, and froze at 0%. Reset it, and it freezes at the HTC screen again. Again, hard reset. 10 minutes later, I'm finally booted and setup. Install Google Maps. Works fine. Few hours later, I pull my phone out of my pocket, and the screen is lit but displays nothing. Buttons are lit up too. Frozen again. Reboot it again, and it's like I hard reset it. Had to initialize the phone again, reinstall Google Maps.
Wake up this morning, and again, blank lit screen. Right now, it's seemingly functional, but I haven't done anything to it. From power on to booted takes roughly 4 minutes. Absolutely unacceptable.
Reflashed it, and it's behaving no differently.
Anyone else experience this before?
No, mine has been perfect in all aspects. I would suggest trying another HardSPL version & a standard HTC WM6.1 ROM & see how things run.
You could just be unlucky & have a bad device but it could also be due to bad ROMs & HardSPL version.
I'm sorry to have to ask, but I'm at a loss at this point, I've fixed this problem 3 times, and it keeps coming back.
AT&T tilt, unlocked, Solace 3.1 ROM
HardSPL 2.97
The phone works perfectly fine, except when I have to restart it, then it gets locked in the Bootscreen....and becomes very difficult to get it out. I try a soft reset, hard reset, nothing seems to work.
When this originally happened, I reloaded Solace 3.1 only to have it continue to be locked in the boot mode. Finally I I noticed the camera button and the power button appear to get locked into the on position, so i would manually create space between the button, and the actual activating button within the phone. It has worked 3/200 times I have had this problem. Overall I solved it by never restarting or resetting the phone, but eventually even with a ram cleaning program it becomes a problem.
If I'm thinking of the wrong solution let me know, it now appears to be stuck again in the on position for the power button....I basically ripped off the outer camera button, and now have to manually press the small one within the phone to activate it manually. I still can't get it off the bootloader, and its quite a frustrating problem.
Again, everything software wise works like a charm, I would have to think it isn't software related. Any ideas? I'm at a loss at this point, and using my phone from 2 years ago as a result.
Have U tried using another ROM besides the Solace ?
