First thing I did was alienate my family and friends. Apparently, I still have a girlfriend, and she has disdain for my preciou.... my phone.

Here's a good list for you:
1. Find out how to connect and explore your device's file structure.
2. Find out what a "cab" file is.
3. Learn to install/uninstall cab files.
4. Browse phone settings.
5. Read FAQ sections and understand what is a ROM, what are the dangers associated with "flashing". Decide if you're ready for it or not.
6. Drop in the "development and hacking" forum, see if there are any programs you find useful. Try them out, you'll learn a lot by installing/using/uninstalling stuff.
Thanks all of you, I was really few guides but im still confused. Im currently using t-mobile with its Total Internet. And everything is working. What do i need to make my phone better which Radious&ROM should i donwload??? thanks =) (i like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406346)
Take it back immediately, demand a refund, and get your nokia back.

Wow! What a noob. (and I'm not saying that to insult). You have a long way to go before you ask those kinds of questions. It's like my 8 year old asking about the big bang theroy. I can answer, but he won't understand.
I'm gonna say the same thing as eveybody else, READ as much as you can before asking a bunch of questions. You won't understand the answers you get untill you do.
One more tip. Part of my job is training people how to use diagnostic equipment. I always leave them with a 4 word rule to continue learning the equipment after the training. And that is..... Push The Damn Buttons.

This subject is all covered extremely thoroughly. Do yourself a favor man and go to the Kaiser WIKI here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser . If you dont find an answer there, then there is NO fix for you. We call this error the ID-10T error and its unfortunately unrecoverable, and thusly, causes irreversible damage....... especially to your reputation here at XDA-Developers
P.S.
Research the HARDSPL issue first You cant flash roms without first modding your bootloader as it prevents you from installing non-official ROMS........
Hello Kinda newbie question, maybe not? not to sure im new at this forum but ive heard great reviews of the knowledge of the members, i have a particular question ive looked around, but couldnt find anything on Downgrading the cupcake 1.5 back to stock or RC30, i mean is this possible by any means, im actually wondering because i wouldnt mind flashing the new HERO ROM on my G1 looks really interesting, if anyone knows anything or share their own thoughts that would be awesome!!
Once you have rooted your phone, you can flash to any rooted ROM... RC33, ADP1, Cupcake 1.5, Hero, etc

does it matter if i am already running the CRB43 build?
Sorry, missed where you said "stock" in the first message. So do you want to unroot and go back to the official software? In that case, flash the DREAIMG.NBH file again, then wait for the OTA update.
If that's not what you want.. Clarify, I'm confused.
well i was able to flash the phone back to RC29 i was rooting the phone but i stupid ass loads the new SPL that was for the HERO rom and now the phone is officially bricked no recovery mode or rainbow screen haha..!! fudge!...im thking of going to the tmobile store and just say i accidentally dropped it and phone shut off and when i turned it on it was stuck??? i did pre order the mytouch...but yeah man last night turned out to be a disaster now im stuck with a blackberry pearl for now lol.. thanks tho at least we learn from out mistakes
You can also try playing dumb and just say that there was a new update available and you hit OK, then the screen went blank and now it won't turn back on...

haha yeah thats actually a good one..but the phone stuck on the TmobileG1 splash, the is still under warranty so im thinking it would cover it..i got it 2 months ago i believe
Good luck with it, most people seem to be able to get a new phone.

yeah true...i do wonder but i dont think so...everyone usually gets their share i mean..like i bring in my dead phone, theres usually a factory warranty HTC covers the damage, tmobile loses nothing since most likely they get credited for the Returned Mechandise, if its a bricked phone HTC, theyll most likely flash the chipset via Jtag or something u know...kinda crazy in a way cause what do you think might happen if there was no factory warranty
Update!
they are sending me a brand new one lol! hopefully i dont fudge this one up!

I just bought my Samsung Captivate about 3 weeks ago and my friend updated it to froyo 2.2. Loved it nothing wrong with it untill last night. I pressed the unlock button on the side and when i went to slide it to unlock it it would not work. I took the battery out and tried again and it did nothing. I looked it up and i think my best bet is too download odin3 and restore it to stock. I absolutely no nothing about phones. Please help me! I need my phone to help tune my truck.
Thanks, Abel
This goes in the Q & A section, not android development. And to answer your question thoroughly more information is needed about what your running.
Oh Boy where does one begin.........
Sorry. I am new to this. But as far as i know it is a samsung captivate. lol. But now all it does is go to the "AT&T screen and it says world phone" and does nothing else.

If its just stuck in a boot loop then you def need to flash back to stock. Check out this thread for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
Bad thing is i have mac ( and its pissing me off becaus i cant use it. I am going to have to wait for tonight i guess.
Wait, you use a Mac, you know nothing about phones, and you let someone else update your phone to a totally unsupported operating system? I'm not sure if you realize this, but in doing that, you just let your friend void your warranty.
Friend, here is how forums work: you spend 99% of your time reading and if you don't understand something then you ask. As silverslotcar so kindly pointed out, you should start by reading this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989 and all of the other stickies in this Captivate Android Development forum. THEN you let your friend mod your phone so at least you have some idea of what is going on.
Good luck reading the forums!
I'll help........find a new friend!

suggesting someone break their phone and have to pay for a replacent to fix a software issue that can be done for free with a little bit of reading. Why bother even posting that?

If you're only wanting to go to Android 2.2 (Froyo), your only option in that thread is AdamOutler's UCKB2 Froyo 2.2 Heimdall One-click.
(By the way, if you're wanting to learn what these terms mean, look at the XDA and Android Terms and Acronyms post in my signature. It should help to give you an idea of what all this stuff means.)

There is no such thing... only root and no root. This is because Heimdall requires one flash without BLs then you can reflash with BLs, no reason to have two different ones...

Hahaha..not like..but to many post make my mind blurrr on focusing...anyway thanks...will look for it
well... anyway... i know what you mean. blur at some point back then. but its necessary for you to know what you are going to do and what will come next before you mess up your phone. At the end of the day, you'll find out its a simple thing. if you meet any problem. state it here. if i'm around i'll see what i can do. else someone else will provide you some help if they're interested. ^^
you can start with what version of firmware you have and Hboot version from the boot loader. power off your phone than hold vol- and power button. read the green words on top of the screen. this might clear a lot of things
lol.... no wonder your name was so familiar... i was looking for some hack for x10 mini few weeks ago and your name was there.

I seem to be getting that impression too. on a worse case with any of my HTC phones i ever had i could do something to get it working. and i have had some **** ups happen. this was a stupid mistake and im sure on a forum where we have oms posted for both i cant be the first person to click the wrong one as im getting the idea they are simular but hey its a brick now. so carphonewarehouse i go. and just hope they cant switch it on and see the at&t screen lmao.
I had a similar result a couple of weeks back after trying to flash hardcore's speedmod kernel CWM version in Odin - not very sensible...
Couldn't get into download mode at all. After panicking for a couple of hours, I removed the battery for 2 hours, reinserted it and all was good - i.e., got download mode back.
Worth a try, you're not going to make it any worse. Hopefully... Good luck.
