Hello,
I am new to this forum and I just got an At&T Tilt for Christmas and I wanted to get it so it has the HTC Kaiser ROM running on it. So I am overwhelmed with the information on the site and was wondering where to go to get started with the hacking process and if it is going to be easy for a noob.
Thanks for all your help,

Read the sticky threads in the upgrading section thoroughly and enjoy. Be careful, this stuff is addictive
Edit: this is also a good thread to read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356895

Please can someone help us unknowlegeble people create something like that for us (romkitchen for windows mobile 5.0)
Thank you.
do your own research
try doing some research instead. I bought my first windows smart phone one week ago, researched the ROM upgrades and methods at this forum and others. I was able to unlock my phone, safely backup my stock ROM, and flash a much improved radio and firmware package without any trouble thanks to the excellent resources available.
If you want someone to do it for you or hold your hand, you have no business hacking your phone anyway. Leave it to those who can research for themselves.

Thank you to everyon for your help. Yes the wiki should be the first stop. But have you visited the wiki lately? it really dosent help out that much, cause it dosent have that much information in the first place.
If you Look at the main forum, i have already complained about that .
as for the link to the romkitchen for the wizard, i will just wait till someone tests it out.
I have the AT&T Tilt and i want to know how I can upgrade it to the new windows 6.1. I contacted AT&T but they told me there is no update for it, but as i read through the threads, i see people that have 6.1 on their tilt.
delete this thread asap, before the flaming starts..
go to the first kaiser general page and read the sticky thread at the very top
research and search before you post a new thread

As AT$T said there is no update,
As he said above, if you had bothered to read at all you would realize that these are custom made 6.1 roms.
You will be able to tell, that there is little that, is more annoying around here, than someone coming along, without reading anything, and saying " hi guys , what's everyone talking about ? "

Give the guy a break his problem is obvious
oh man!
he wants to have WONdows 6.1
not Windows 6.1 cooked ROMs
you guys got it all wrong
C'mon people. Start at the top. The section that says "Sticky" is a good place to start.
1. Read, read and read some more. << This step is critical. You need to lear the steps to flashing a rom.
2. Hardspl << Another critical step. You have to perform this step unless you personally know moderator GSLEON3 and dont mind bricking your device.
3. Read some more until you find the rom you like. Noone is going to be able to tell you what rom is best. It's a users choice.
THREAD CLOSED​
you probably get this question a million times. i look in the begginers tutorial on how to install a new ROM and i went through the process fine with no problems...i think. it gave me the same rom as it first came with. i hope thats correct. Im just trying to find out which ROM is good and which ones should i stay away from. I was looking at the Cube rom and it looks good but idk how to install it?. where can i find it to download it?
Start digging in the ROM Development forum. Read the stickies and the wiki for instructions.
wiki
definitely read the wiki. a year ago, i was an htc noob, but now i am a flashing junkie. I highly recommend the flash via microsd card method, and the hyperdragon and phoenix roms.
welcome to the forum
have fun with your new HTC
So, I am a newbie ... a newbie willing to learn Up until now, I've been using the P1i and hacked it successfully. The windows OS however is a new ball game!
I had the Xperia in hand for a couple of days, had a feel of it and gave it back to a friend. I now intend to take it back and play with it!
I intend on getting my phone to a state as seen in the video/ pictures on:
Xperience v4.5 Landscape (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485624&highlight=Touch+IT+4.5)
Touch-IT 7 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503732)
XPERIA Gen II (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497092)
Wanting to see my phone as mentioned above, I've been searching and reading the forums for some days now. Aside from getting more fascinated, I have not really managed to understand a whole lot and hence am looking forward to helpful folks out here to lead me initially through my first couple of experiments.
On that note, can some one first tell me what is Hard SPL and if I MUST necessarily do it before I start modifying my X1?
Hard-SPL for Xperia X1 - Released! (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218)
I noticed this huge "THE XPERIA X1 LIBRARY" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=477801) and was wondering which of those I must use?
And finally, is there a starters/ toddlers/ newbies guide to work through to my first real mod? With so many materials out here, its really difficult to understand the real starting point!
Details of my device:
ROM Version: 1.02.931.3
Date : 08/29/08
Radio Version: 1.06.25.29
Soft Id: 1213.6450
Soft Version: R1AA017
Customization Id:1215-1832
Custom.. Version:R15Awhat
Custom.. Variant:Generic UK
Thanks in advance for any help
PS. If someone can point me to thread for where I could get a start, that would be great ... something like what is hard spl and what are the first steps I should go through!
yeah, interesting... I have visited XDA-developers site many times since 2007. I have learned some of the stuffs reading through thousands of pages. But still learning... and GOOGLE....GOOGLE and GOOGLE.
I heard that somebody has made an ebook with all the stuffs you are asking and selling it for 99 Euro. Do you wanna buy?
Begin with the library!
the video biovolt posted help me out plenty and should be the same for all newbies. you will only thank him for doin it in the 1st place.
You definately need to HardSPL first before fashing a custom ROM...I recommend doing this because you are still using R1AA...
Anyway read the sticky Threads and you should find help!
The last thing: Nice to see you here, congrats to your first posting!
Yes I believe that you need to hard spl before a custom rom. But dont take my word for it, im still a newb

Done. Always check forum stickies before opening a new thread. New threads are a LAST RESORT! This is the same at almost any forum ever.
