Ok peeps im confused. I have flashed many many of my phones on my own. (touch pro, omnia, mogul, touch pro2)
I just replaced my touch pro2 due to a cracked screen and just recieved the new phone today. If im correct, i believe i have to hard-spl unlock it right ?
So if my memory serves me correctly, i synced it with windows mobile device and the hard spl unlocker.. i used the "automatic flash" but when it gets the final step it says that hard spl has detected that i have already unlocked another device and if i wish to unlock it commercially, then i need to email olipro or chan. " (thats been sumarized)
it also gave me the option of installing a cab (enablerapinew) and rerun the automatic flash from hard spl.
I have even tried the manual flash from the program, it goes into bootloader mode(which still shows "usb" at the bottom) then goes into the loading screen but stays at 0%. i wait for about 3 minutes while its in this state but nothing happens.
So what the fugg am i doing wrong... all i want to do is flash me a new rom and new radio rom and thats it.
Please some take me by the hand on this one.

It is actually no longer a donation, but a requirement. They need to change the wording.

Not true, you can always ask for a free ticket. The only thing is that it will take some time and people don't like to wait.

I submitted my ticket over two months ago and have yet to receive a response. It is safe to say they do not respond to free requests anymore.

I don't think asking for a response or asking to change the wording from "donation" to "required" is giving them a hard time. Two months is more than ample time to respond. I went ahead and paid my required fee though. I'm just irked that they still use the word donation.
Question answered, this discussion is also ongoing in the Hard SPL thread.

(I have also read all the recommended threats which were great. Thanks for sharing)
you obvious did not read all the recommenced sites! My guess is that you tried to run the upgrade file in pocket pc. You must connect your phone to the computer and establish activsync connection first. than you run the upgrade file on your computer

Navy2010 is correct you are running the updates from your PPC this won't work. You must run the programs from a PC. I also suggest a little more reading.

Thanks Gents but one more question for u?
The upgrade went perfectly. Thanks
The reason I was trying to upgrade the ROM is not resolved still.
When device is in the Portrait position (slide is closed) my touch screen works maybe 20% of the time. When I open the slide the touch screen works perfectly. The issue still occurs after the upgrade.
Any recommendations?

Sounds like a hardware failure and could be the reason the phone was sold... ?? If you can return it under some warrantee, I'd lean that direction.

I agree.
Yep I agree. I have sent an email to the seller. In all fairness He sold me a brand new device and he has been pretty good so far. Let see what he says now. I'll update the post when he gets back to me. Thanks for you comments.
Seller has sent me an RMA form
I guess he is going to repair it or replace it.
He emailed me an RMA form which I have sent back. Saga continues.

I have had this problem but in reverse it turned out to be muck under the screen and would cause the start button to activate by just pushing the side of the case.
Get a laminated buisness card or something like it and slide it in between the screen and case
You may have something here
Thanks Eddieitman. I tried it and nothing much came out, but usually after a few mins the screen locks up. This time it's still responsive after 15mins. We'll wait and see after an hour if it still works. fingers are cross.
btw nice site.
Still locking up but a little squeeze works. lol
I am talking about the device. lol Unfortunately, it's still locking up. But when I squeeze the sides of screen it comes back. Sounds like my situation maybe a little worse than yours. I going to send it back and see what they do. thks for the help.
Screen issue not covered by warrantee.
This is a Update/FYI.
I sent my phone into Arvato Teleservice out of Germany to fix the screen issue. $97.00 cdn to do so. First off their customer service is absolutely horrendous. So avoid them.
They determined the issue to be a damaged Main Board, but because of the flashed ROM they are not going to do it under warrantee. I should of downgraded before sending it in (my fault). I am still fighting with them.
Cost to fix $490.00repair + $97.00shipping = buy a new phone.
I am not suggesting it is a result of the ROM but wondering has anyone experienced screen issues after flashing the ROM?
Hey i have no idea what happened but i tried putting the touch it on to My phone after the hardspl was put in but now it is not even starting up it is only staying at the CanonYang start up screen can you help me or did i brick it
try booting your phone into the boot loader and then reflash another or the same rom to it. My kaiser did the exact same thing to me using the newly released "Official Tilt Rom" off of the HTC website. I lost my information but at least I was able to put on a different rom. Hopefully this helps.
How???
HOw do i do that because the phone is only starting up to the like "welcome screen" of Canon Yang?
Look in the xda wiki to find your phone or variant. On the kaiser you do a soft reset using the stylus and hold down the camera button until you see the 3 colored lines. Other phones are different so don't forget about checking that wiki. I never knew what it was until a while ago when someone explained it all to me and then showed me. There should be a link on top of your page or on the side that says XDA-Wiki. They even have pictures of your phone if you do not know what it is since companies use the same phone and release it with thier own name. Hence the ATT Tile is a variant of the HTC Kaiser. I hope this helps.

Davenumber, you can edit your preferences under the quicklinks drop down menu on top of your page. Edit your profile and tell it to send you an E-mail as soon as someone responds to your thread. This will allow you to get notified as soon as someone responds and you will not have to post in multiple forums. Best of luck. Let me know what happens.
Yeah but the thing is
The problem is the phone wont even start up it stays on the Canon Yang screen (like when you restart or start up the phone). so yeah i am kinda thinking it is bricked
unbrick it with the RUU.
If you're coming up to a canonyang screen, it would appear that hardspl worked ... so You should be able to flash any rom you want from bootloader.
I woke up this morning to find that the touchscreen on my Wing was completley unresponsive. I still had control via the D-pad and soft keys. I tried everything I could think of, including a hard reset. Unfortunatley, now that I hard reset it, it's stuck at the "Tap screen to set up your Windows Mobile device". Obviously, I can't tap my screen. Is there a way to bypass this so I can at least get to the today screen???
The only that I know to bypass it includes making a custom ROM with that part disabled. I think you should call your provider and get a replacement if you still have a warranty on it.

You wouldn't happen to have one of those custom ROMs laying around, would you? hehheh I called T-mobile, unfortunately, I'm 12 F'n days passed my warranty! I slapped it good and it went from "Tap Screen" to "Align Screen". Damn.
If I have several backups on my storage card. If only there was a way to activate one of them, that would restore my phone without having to set up the screen....
ive had this happen to a wing before...i think its a hardware problem i just called tmobile and the sent me a new one

Could always look into replacing the screen yourself? I've seen directions for replacing it on a kaiser around somewhere. Also sounds like all you need is a digitizer.
And quit smacking your phone.... phone abuser!!!

Herald Service Manual
Lets see if i done this right you'll have a service manual that i used to replace my screen,
I bought an ATT tilt quite a while ago. It is out of warranty now, and wouldn't you know it, something went wrong.
I'm currently using Dutty's Diamond ROM (with the keyboard fix installed), but the same happened before with the official ROM. While I text some keys don't work. I'll be typing away, just to look at the screen and see that I am missing a bunch of letters, rendering the message unreadable. I then have to go back and fill in all the blanks, and even then sometimes it takes several tries to get it to go. The same happens with the backspace key; sometimes it just doesn't work, other times it does (oddly enough, when it doesn't work normally, it usually lets me hit "function" and use it as the delete key).
My other concern is that there is a ton of lag while typing. It takes a while for letters to show up. Is that normal (for the Tilt, at least. I'm still wishing I had bought a BlackBerry)?
Yeah, I had similar troubles. I just upgraded my SPL and hopefully will be testing it further testing.
what SPL are you running?
I'm not entirely sure, it was a while ago that I flashed the ROM. How do I find out what it is? I tried Device Information, but it wasn't there.
you have to put it in Bootloader mode.
hold power and camera button while resetting with the stylus, then you'll come to the tricolor screen which will give you the SPL info.

I am having the same exact problem, 1 out of 5 times it works corectly so im thinking it has to be somekind of software, my problem started when I started using ROMeOS's rom's and I have tried different SPL's virsions.
I've heard that the keyboard/membrane may be the problem. Is that likely? If so, is there anywhere to buy them?

But they only have the outer keypad (the one right below the screen). Well, I hope this can be fixed with software, because the only place I saw that listed them showed them at $39.99 and they were out of stock.

found this in another thread!
Success! If the SPL doesn't work and I can't convince AT&T to do it, I'll order one and put it in. How do you install it?
EDIT: I just installed skyfire, and noticed that while I was putting in my email and password it was smooth and nothing was skipped. I'm almost 100% certain this is a problem with WinMo itself
I have been having the same problem as you are describing, but I have noticed that it is with heavy use keys like T, H, E, R, S and for some reason V.
I was getting the feeling that it was a hardware problem rather than a software problem because, especially with the V, I have to apply a bit of pressure to get the button to work.
Unfortunately for me I bought mine off Ebay so the warranty is already void.
Incidentally mine started happening when I had the original network providers (T-Mobile) rom on it. I have since installed an original HTC rom and it hasnt made the slightest bit of difference.
So, how easy is it to open up the back of the Tytn II and replace the keyboard unit then?
Oh my god! Thank you for posting this. I swear I have always felt like posting this but always got too lazy. I thought it was only me that had this problem. It is so annoying typing away, and then having to spend another minute to retype the letters that didn't get inputed the first time. It is so frustrating and I thought it was my fault or something, or ROM, I believe its hardware related, but I am not going to spend another dime on this POS. I'm just not so patiently awaiting t-mobile to release their android device, and I will jump ship and never look back! Thanks for the post again, it has given me piece of mind.....ironically
I'm kind of wanting T-Mobile's Android phone, but seeing as how it's made by HTC, I'll wait for the first couple of user-reviews to come out. I bought the Tilt based on website reviews, but man, I was really misled. They said the camera was great, I can only get blurry unrecognizable images. They made no mention of the fact that when you switch to landscape it takes 3 seconds for all the graphics to appear.
I'm disappointed, and I think my next phone will be a plain vanilla flip phone.
Anywho, I'm updating the SPL now, I'll post if it makes any change.
Okay, I now have HardSPL 3.56 and there does not appear to be much of a change. There was some short lag at the beginning of the text string, but afterwards it caught up. I missed no letters this time. I cannot say how much of this was the placebo effect (i.e. it just felt faster), but perhaps if everyone with the issue tries we can have a reasonable answer.
ETA: I added a poll, so if you try this, fill in the poll!
disable word suggestion under Input setting.
i don't miss any characters with it disabled.
It was already disabled for me. I know I didn't change it, I think the ROM came that way.
I have had a htc g1 t mobile in 100% working condition for a long period of time. a month ago i rooted the phone ( and i was successful), downgraded the phone to rc29 and tried to put the hero firm ware into my phone. in the process of trying to put the new firm ware i came across some difficulties and now, as what they say "bricked" my phone. immediately as this happened i was able to reach such screens as holding the end key and the camera key landing upon a white page with some options. not having much knowledge i played around with it and now my phone is completely unresponsive. all it will do is start up and stay on the g1 spalsh home screen and only when i take out the battery will it shut of. holding down any certain keys together does not seem to help. i have also given my phone to such companies as SN traders who were unsuccessful in repairing it as they said " they could not identify the problem". perhaps they never really tried. but the point is, i want my phone to work again. do you have any suggestions as to what i may do to bring my phone back to life or perhaps suggest a place to go to that will repair it for a fee.

1. Upgrage to the newest radio? http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/
2. Upgrade to the newest SPL? ( You can find it in the first URL)
3. Partition Your SD card to a Fat32/ext3/Linux-Swap?
yes i recal doing all of those things i believe in the process of upgrading to the newest spl or newest radio i went wrong. i think i tried to put a file on b4 having the prerequiste for it. not sure which one. but in the middle of these process is where the problem arose.

When applying the latest SPL did you flash a new rom right after??
...
all i remeber is i had the rom on my sd card and when i tried to flash it it showed an error or somthing. this might not be accurate to what actullay happend but my memory is shot.
again with the victim theme? the guy who go's out, buys a new r-1 with no motorcycle endorsement or training then piles it into a tree isn't a victim. he's an idiot. now, what you did is not nearly that, but if you can't get into any recovery screens, you own a brick.
sorry, but rooting your phone isn't like changing the wall paper. bad things can happen.
Seriously buddy, there are warning signs posted on almost all the threads on this forums when dealing with flashing stuff. All the risks are laid out and people will tell you to do your research before doing anything. I was scared ****less the first time i installed the "death/danger" spl even though i knew exactly what i was doing.
You bricked your phone.
There's not much else to say, on the developer section of this forum, there's a thread , something about "thinktank for bricked g1's" go there and you might find some solutions
arbab01, I sent you a PM.
