Ok, first off ive scanned xda and cant see an answer to this specifically, hence the post.
Love the Kaiser-14months and using L26 Diamond Build
Lost the phone one night while worse for wear and bought another on ebsay-cus its a great phone. This morning new phone and where the problem begins-
Phone arrived. Good nick and standard O2 rom is onboard- no issues. Had my sim in for a while, and texting/phone/apps are normal. Now i had an old Sprite Backup file from my old phone from March so i straight away tried to back up. I didnt consider any other factors.
Now however im stuck. The phone boots. The L26 screen and music come up but eventually i hit a new message on white screen:-
"The device is unable to boot because you have turned off the device incorrectly or tried to install an application from untrusted source.Press send to rest your device... blah blah"
Pressing send,doing nothing or hard resetting the device just keeps me going on the same cycle. I take it because i backed up a new ROM, i should have flashde this phone first. Never thought.
Can i get back to basics again?? Help.Im using a Palm treo at min and hate it.

ok my xda locks up (nothing new there!) soft rest and all i get is a white screen! try again and the same thing happens. So i decide to do a hard reset. This appears to be working until it's loading applications and settings (O2) when it hits a .per file (i think) and tells me i need to find the source .cab file.
the 2 choices i then have are ok or cancel, niether work the bloody thing is locked up again! so i soft rest it and it's back but with no O2 settings. I try and run a back up from my pc and it all works apart from about 15 files that it cannot reinstall (mainly to do with contacts). I then sync my contact list as that is missing and all looks good! 2 days configuring it back to my liking and all looks good once again!
This morning no alarm to wake me up (bugger im now half hour late for work! lol) the xda had been on charge all night and it appears to be dead! All i can see is the O2 logo like you get at start up but with no back light. the unit does not respond to anything. I've tried taking the battery out, soft and hard reset all with no response! I try and put it back on charge and all i get is the red light come on for 2 mins then go off again! can't turn it on while on charge!
Please help as phoning O2 is really like banging our head against a brick wall!
thanks guys
i'm not to sure but i would say you have two options either download the rom from the o2 website or download the rom Modified_XDA_IIi_Upgrade_V1.11.162_Radio_1.04.rar i installed it yesterday and i haven't had any problems hope this helps
ty but if i cant turn the phone on or connect it to the pc how can i do that????
i might give O2 a call anyway and see what they say. they might offer me a new one which is always good!
o2 could offer you a new one but i read somewhere on this site that the xda IIi has been discontinued so they might upgrade to the xda exec
When I first got my 2i, I had it for a week and then out of the blue it decided to do this after a soft reset one day - got stuck at the O2 splash screen, no backlight, frozen forever. Had to take the battery out to turn it off.
Took it into the shop, the store manager said "yeah, we've seen this happen more than once", and just went into the storeroom and got a me a brand new one.
This did happen the day after I'd run the simunlock tool found on this forum, which worked successfully (I tried my Virgin mobile SIM in it and it worked first time, but I then took it back out and put my O2 SIM back in)... I'm not sure if it was just coincidence or what, but I'm not feeling too eager to run simunlock on my Alpine again until I sell it
thanks guys i thought it might be fried!
called last night but got cut off and then was after 7 so couldn't speak to anyone! :evil:
will try again and see what they say!
when i put it on charge it charges for a few mins then turns onto splash screen for a few mins then turns off and charges again and so on in a loop! really quite annoying! lol
Another thing to try is to put the device into bootloader mode and force a firmware upgrade. It can be connected to the PC but it will no longer use Activesync so the upgrade will work fine.
Once this is done it will be using more up to date firmware if you download the ROM from this sites FTP and should work better in general.
well carphone craphouse couldnt do anything with it so has had to go back to O2 went on the 10th dec and still no word
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!!!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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
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.
just a quick one, my X1 with standard software has started to randomly reboot which is getting on my nerves!
Its also losing new messages when it does this. so any ideas before I test its bouncability on the wall
If you have installed an app recently, or can pinpoint something you've done, try to uninstall/undo that.
I would personally hard reset (search on the X1 board for the how to via the hardware keys, or just choose Clear Storage from the Settings/System menu).
Make sure you've at least sync'ed all your data to your PC first. Then connect back up, and contacts etc will be restored.
If you haven't already, try SPB backup (or Resco's , or Sprite's) - they are all time-limited trials so no problem with a quick backup-restore sequence. You can choose just about anything to backup from your device with these.
If you're feeling adventurous, consider trying one of the more popular ROMs, you won't look back!
I've tried the custom ROMs in the past but decided to go back to stock.
Already hard-reset it and was still doing it, and now I've gone to update it (its back to stock) on the SE update service and its still rebooting.
Its now stuck on the four colour screen!!! I am really hating this phone
I've now managed to get the Stock ROM on but when it comes to installing the Stock SPL both my pc brings up a blue screen (never done before) and phone dies again.
I've also noticed when I clear storage it turns off but won't come back on, only way it does come back on is by removing the battery
Any help guys??
mine kept doing this. Sent it to SE and they replaced the mobo.
yeah gone today, see what happens
Had same problem while using stock and custom roms . Then i searched xda for stable & fast rom and i did it. Not advertise but i really like 826x rom =)
