hello everyone i am new to these forums/Pda/windows mobile. i know im supposed to search it for myself and all but im a full time working student and havnt the time to search through all the topics. but anyway i need advice, im getting an At&t tilt tomorrow and would like help on the whole process of making it better ( removing the bloatware adding apps and what not flashing the rom) oh also im subscribed to T-mobile so getting it unlocked is 1st priority. and how to use t-zones with it. i know most of u will start flaming as u read this topic but id really appreciate it if someone would gladly link me the Topics to wat i need much appreciated thanks
I'll reply first because most will just ignore this redundant post. I work full-time and go to school full-time and I make time for most things that interest me.
So. I went to google.com and in that search box I typed "Sim Unlocker Kaiser" and got this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361039
That solves your first problem. I would suggest taking time out of your busy life and reading that post before doing anything on your new phone or it will be hell to get it fixed if you F it up.
For your other questions I will let you search for them as I have just showed you my searching method.
Go to google.com and in the search box type in " *what you're looking for* Kaiser" If you attach Kaiser at the end I will assure you 99.99 percent you will get the top results taking you straight to a post on this site. Hope that helps. I think we could close this thread now.
Let me kindly add....
10th link from the left, 3rd link from the right, has the words "Search" and is located at the top of this thread.
So... you are busy.
OK - so am I - personally - my recommendation would be to not do anything with your Kaiser when you get it - that way you have to take almost no responsibility for it. Ifanything goes wrong you can take it back to AT&T and make them fix it.
Now - if you take time to personalize it and add and remove things from it you risk it doing things that you will have to fix not AT&T. That will slow you down in your busy life.
You really should not be here as I see trouble coming for you. You will be tempted to try these things without having the time to recover from problems. I am not wishing it on you - simply stating what looks like the obvious.
Bill
thanks for the help :3 im really busy right now coz im helping my sister with her wedding plans and it gets hectic after work and school so yea :3 but anyway thanks
Unlock, then apply HARD Spl from this forum.. Browse through the ROMs here then flash one.. Best is to flash with a plain vanilla one..
Also, you havent told if this is your first pocket pc..?
yes this is my 1st ppc that i will be purchasing so everything is new to me and i am totally clueless wat to do
Well dude this isn't the matrix and we can't just download info into your brain. You're going to have to learn the old fashioned way.
just take time to read everything...dont rush if u dont have time then dont to it yet...its better to take time to read then try and do it wrong and then u have to spend even more time fixing it
It's a good thing you're a student. That means you understand what you will have to do to LEARN. You'll have to pay the price and invest time or money if you want the premium results. There are many here who would help you customize your phone for $130/hour. I suspect you don't have the funds to support that so you'll have to invest the time.
I know people like to give you a hard time when you are new, if you have any specific or general questions send me a PM and I will help you out.
if it's basic stuff that can be postponed a bit after more important things are discussed you can always PM me,i'm on here daily while at work mondays through fridays
Thanks to everyone, il take ur advices and take time to read the forums when i get the time hopefully i get some time this weekend thanks everyone

I am sorry that you got offfended. Wait a minute, no I'm not. I see that you have edited your post above. Good because it made absolutely no sense the way you first wrote it. It seemed to be something that was written by a 10 year old. Your spelling and grammar are horrible. Just look at the post I quoted. "did you ever had a ...." -
I will rewrite it for you.
"Have you ever bricked your Breeze and then successfully repaired your device. If so, please share your experience and step by step instructions taken to fix your device in this thread to help those less cerebrally gifted like myself to fix our own devices, because we just don't have a clue."
Is this clear for you?
I have taken the liberty to check out your posting behaviour. You seem to have been having problems for quite some time but have not gotten a straight answer and for that I am sorry for you. I cannot help you because:
1. I do not own a Breeze
2. I don't have much experience with flashing custom ROM's and have never Bricked my device, (Because I am really careful and do lots and lots of reading in these forums to learn everything I need to learn before doing anything.)
When I responded to your post, I was only trying to help you by getting you to be more clear with what your problem was and what you wanted out of this thread. It really made absolutely no sense the way you had orriginally written it. With this attitude you have - you might find it difficult to get anyone to help you.
Good bye... Good luck. I hope you get what you are looking for

Have you read this thread - May be helpful. I have not read it fully; however, noticed that you have not posted in it.

If you have any questions about the process described, may I suggest in addition to posting in the thread itself, send a private message to jerpelea as he created this thread and Guide. You will have to try to provide as much information as possible to him / her - What you did? how you did it? etc... What rom you were trying to flash. Answer any questions he asks and don't get frustrated with him / her if it takes time for him / her to figure out what happened to your device. You have to remember that you did this to your device / not anyone else and you are the one with the device in front of you. Be patient - Listen to their advice, follow their instructions - answer their questions - don't give up and start looking for someone else to help you out because you will just annoy people and will have to start all over again explaining your situation. If you want your device fixed then you need to listen up and stop being so aggressive - it puts people off and pushes them away. I know that it is frustrating, but look - your tactics have not been working so far. I have seen in several threads that there were some people trying to help you but you just disappeared from that thread before they could finish. You had failed to answer some peoples questions . Remember, they need to know what is what before giving you direction because the last thing they want to do is rush you into doing something that might actualy permanently brick your device. Also remember that it will not be a quick fix - May take several days / weeks as most people here have lives outside of this forum. USE Private messaging though once you have found someone who will take the time to guide you. If you try to rush it - you might truely end up with a paper weight
There is also a lot of information in the WIKI here. I strongly urge you to read all of this to learn everything there is to learn about your device. It will not only possibly lead to helping you figure out how to solve your problem, but also help you to understand what others are asking you with regards to your device.

sorry for my week english....
despite i didn't post in both, but i tried what is mentioned in these 2 posts, and i didn't succed to fix my imate spjas...
desperate... do i have to throw down my device????
is their a way to fix it, is their for exampl a no vender id RUU or something like i can use it to repair either my bootloader and update any rom i want....
asking for you, and all who has enough experience in building a rom, or whatever to find a way a universal way to repair our devices....
thank you, and thx for all who can help, and post a solution....
I am sorry that I cannot help you, I just don't know about your device or ROM upgrading. You seem to be very desperate and let your emotions get the best of you in your posts. This with the language barrier can make it very difficult. I really hope that someone here who is capable of helping you can be patient enough with you to help you. You have to remember to be patient to with them though or they will just walk away and leave you with a device that doesn't work.
If no one here can help you, what about taking your device in for service. I don't know how long you have had your device for (Warranty) (Upgrade to a new device that works)
Good luck

does anyone know someone who does a rom flashing service i just cant seem to get to grips with it and have 2 kaisers i would like done
thanks len
In my opinion, anyone that actually answers this and says 'Yes, I'll charge you $$$XXX for flashing the phone' is doing a disservice to the ROM developer, as they're the ones spending countless hours providing excellent alternatives to stock--whereas the person flashing would be making a profit off of, what, 30 minutes worth of work?.....
Be patient, read the wiki, there are lots of threads that tell you step by step how to flash a phone. Virtually impossible to brick one, and most important of all, you can make a donation to the person that matters, the ROM developer.
And besides, Flashing is fun!!!! You go to people one day and say "LOOK AT THIS!!!", and they'll roll their eyes...then you'll go to the same people the next day and say "NOW LOOK AT THIS!!!!"--and then they'll roll their eyes, this time impressed at your money metal flashing skillz...
sorry but i do not have the resources to do this i have spent hours already and i msuffer from depressive illnesses so i have very few reserve for this kined of thing as well as my wife four kids and everything else the world throws at us.
some of us need the help of those who have gone before to show us the way,
so please if someone could help me so that i can have a rom flashed phone i would be very grateful, if they want to do it free of charge i will send the phones myself i dont care just need some help
Hi sara i dont mind flashing your phone for you. Are u uk based?
Location would make help way easier to find.
I'm in upstate NY and willing to help.
hi thanks yeah i am in the uk where are you
Beware!
Dear Saranam,
If you need help with flashing ROMs please be carefull to whom you send your phone(s).
Make sure that it is someone who is thrustworthy, it would be a shame if you'd send it to the wrong person.
Hope you find someone thrustworthy who can help you!
Regards,
EquinoXe
That's a MAN baby!!!
I in no way meant any disrespect towards you--the comment was meant towards anyone willing to charge for the 'help'...look at the people with over a thousand posts, many of these giving up free advice at the cost of their own time...
Good luck finding someone

Follow this directions and in 20-30minutes and download all the files, you'll be flashing rom on TYTN II in no time. I would personally start with Hyperdragon'sIII or L26...'cuz they made even for starters like me. Give it a try... and then explore other GREAT roms. Why would you pay something when you can do it yourself?
here's the link....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433835
If you were close around, i would've done it for you for free....anyday.
i have spent hours and all my energy with this very thread to no avail it is not as clear as it says it is especially when things dont go as it says, if i was well and had the resources i could do it but as i have said i need help
thanks to all, i have finally managed to do it hard spl new radio thingy and something called hperdragon 111
First I'd like to mention that I am grateful for all the developers on XDA working on these phones. I'm no programmer but I know plenty who are in all fields so I can appreciate what you are all doing.
I just wanted to create this thread to see how close we are to getting our hands on the HardSPL for Rhodium and any updates on development.
I've had my Touch Pro 2 for about a week and half now and already bored with it. The phone itself is great, but Windows Mobile 6.1 seriously sucks.
I really want to start using Windows Mobile 6.5, which brings me to why I created this post.
If anyone can shed some light on this I'd appreciate it.

Olipro and cmonex are still searching for mobile devices with hynix memory to test some stuff.
In short, don't expect anything soon and have patience
what
how do we know if it has that memory so others can help look.
just asked permission to Olipro if it was ok if I wrote a tutorial regarding this...
Uhm...I'll open a new thread with step-by-step instructions on how to help them out
Hope it will help them. Gimme about an hour to write a detailed tutorial.
*EDIT* Tutorial is up: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4035499#post4035499
hmm this thread will be good for the usual "hardspl waititing posts".. when release comes, we (olinex) will just create the real hspl thread, so mods will not have to clean up for release (like for topaz they had to).
as to why this flash type checking is so important: on topaz the hynix ones really just got lucky by not getting their mfg partition corrupt. (no one got it corrupt but as i said that was luck) i want to avoid any such problems on rhodium.

Does this mean there is a feasible solution for Samsung based units ?
I am surprised that it makes a difference based on the fact HTC wont have made a separate spl for hynix based units. and rom upgrades will contain the same info...
can hard spl for samsungs be realeased with a link to the tutorial on how to ensure you have samsung?
darides tutorial suggests most people seem to have samsung anyway.
infact has ther been a hynix unit seen in the wild?
Cheers

Perhaps Olinex can make a version for samsung that checks on the sspl that the memory is samsung or not. to avoid bricks or other problems.
I have not seen or know anyone with hynix memory on their tp2 after checking about 5 different units from my friends and family they are all samsung. My vodafone one is samsung too.
it's great news for me
is it a problem if everybody have the samsung chipset ?
just letting you know no updates yet - was busy in real life
what is real life ?

Please can we have an ETA for the release of the HardSPL.
Hi Guys,
I can't put into words how much I respect and revere the information posted on your web-site and I apologise for asking the million dollar question. But I need to know.
Can we please have an ETA / timeline for the release of the HardSPL for our HTC Rhodium.
I hate my Vodafone UK branded HTC Touch Pro 2. It is red and so am I with anger. Joking aside I love HTC standard ROM's. The last one I put on my HTC Touch Pro was amazing.
Please, keep up the work....
Kind regards...

If you want to flash the HTC Shipped ROM, look out for the Goldcard methods. I'm not going into detail here because it's off topic and well documented else where. If all else fails cmonex normally helps via PM.

I can totally understand people begging for this. I nervously waiting for it to, but not to install custom ROMs. I'm waiting for it to get blackberry connect running. To achieve that I need to manipulate the device ID in the ROM itself, to fool RIM, let them think it's running on a proper device. But to flash this manipulated ROM I need HSPL (or does someone know a way to manipulate the device ID (HTC-Rhodium) in another way?).
However, asking and begging does not help or make stuff easier or getting it done faster. We all need to be brave and patient and wait a bit and let olipro and cmonex get this stuff done.

Sorry to go a bit OT here but I am interested in your info about Blackberry Connect. I have just come to the TP2 from a Storm and one thing that is lagging behind with the TP2 IMO is the push email, would the 'updated' ROM you are proposing allow me to use the pushmail service from BB ?
Thanks,

Have you tried to change your AKU?
If NO you can change this:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/Versions/Aku
and put this:
.1.4.3
I'm starting a bounty for a new Hard SPL tool. We need one that will be free with no stipulations to the community. I don't mean to offend or provoke anyone here, but at this point we have a "donation" only SPL unlocker for a device that is aging rapidly.The majority of people with problems are posting in that thread about having to pay on their first unlock. Contacting the support website there is kind of hit and miss.
I appreciate everything that cmonex and olipro have done for this community. I hold no grudge against them for this. I know that life gets in the way. However, there were ways to prevent the problems. They could have recruited someone to fill in for them who would actually be in this thread as well as over on the htc-unlocks website who could provide support to the folks who use this software.
The Touch Pro2 is over a year old and is showing its age. We shouldn't be paying to unlock such an old device anymore. Even carriers are phasing out the device. It would be of more benefit to the community as a whole to have an unlocker that is free from any limitations to unlock, free to use with no stipulations, and free from cloud based personal information storing.
I donated $10 when I first got my TP2 in the mail and unlocked it. I wasn't required to do by the software, but I did because this is where it all begins in regards to flashing literally ANYTHING on our devices. I respect their work, but forcing users to pay and then not helping with the problems is not acceptable by me.
With that being said, I'm proposing a collaboration of folks from this forum to come up with a new Hard SPL, or, at the very least, work around the "donation" system of the former tool.
I, myself, am not as skilled in scripting as most users on here, so I'm posting this as a request for assistance. Think of this as a virtual drawing board for you guys to help with.
I'm attaching all the info I can find to the first few posts here so we can get the ball rolling. I am really hoping to attract a few people who know how to code programs. I would also hope to get the attention of someone who has the older version of the software that did not connect to the Internet to provide an unlock.
Additional Links and sources:
The bounty could also be given to anyone who could make a RUU that will flash custom ROMs. There is a thread in the HD2 forum HERE about it.
There is a thread HERE for the Wizard that seems to let you extract the SPL from the device. If we could extract the current Hard SPL from the devices, then we would also have ourselves a free version.
I think there would be more motivation if there was a bounty on this. I'll put up $10 to start us off. This way it will be actual donations. If cmonex or olipro make there unlockers free, then what say we just give them the bounty, eh? That way this is completely fair. Either someone else makes a Hard SPL unlocker and they get the cash, or cmonex and olipro get one last lump payment for the community to benefit from.
Bounty donators:
cajunflavoredbob - $10
JVH3 - $10
F2504x4 - $10
DJ_MiX -$15
grifter024 - $10
overtheair - $10

Pledge of $10 toward the bounty
I am pledging $10 toward the bounty.
Real hope for me is that OliPro and cmonex just make it free and get rid of the donation as a requirement to use it.
[EDIT] Adding one caveat to my pledge. Work must be completed prior to December 31st, 2011. That gives over 1 year. Considering that HardSPL is normally available pretty fast after a phone is released, this should not be a problem.
Here is My Pledge of $10 as well..
It seems that some phones can be flased with out Hard-SPL
This will not currently work on the Tilt but maybe give us another direction to explore

Added your pledges to the first post. Added the link about the SSPL RUU to the first post as well. I agree that I wish cnomex and olipro just make it free now, but if not, hopefully we can spur others into looking into this. If they remove the payment system from theirs, then the bounty belongs to them, however. I'm just trying to keep it fair for the developers AND the users.
I pledge a $15 bounty for HardSPL CDMA
&
$30 for CDMA sim Unlocker
Documentation on how to create a HardSPL
I think it would also be great if whoever does this, provides some clear instructions on how it was done.
Or the source code to generate it.
That way, it can be used as a base for HardSPL for future devices.
Not sure if we want to make that a requirement of the bounty or not.

It would really depend on how much it would be of use to WP7 devices as this is the only one I've seen that has a payment system, and there aren't anymore WM6.5 devices coming out. I don't know enough about the SPLs to be able to make that call, but I would hope that if a new one is created, the source would be provided. I'm more interested in resolving the never-ending struggle of lack of support on the paid model. If they would simply do away with the paid Hard SPL system, there would be no problems in that thread other than users who forget to disable antivirus software...
The bottom line is that we just wanted support for the paid software we were using. Since that isn't happening, we're driven to this front. We now want it to be open to the community with no reservations.
EDIT: Vote this to the front page for more attention to the matter. The link to vote is on the right side of the header above post #1. Anyone viewing this should help spread the word. Pass the message along to any other active threads that you're involved in. We need to get this as much attention as possible to either get some assistance in its development or have cmonex and olipro release a true free version.

Although it is not for this device, I think some concepts might be similar.
I think it may let us extract HardSPL from our phone.
Then, reapply it without a need to use anything else.
Once we have that, it becomes free.
hi sorry if i interrupt this, but, you dont have to make a donation in order to get a hard-spl. you just have to get a ticket, and soon or later, they will enable you to do that, and im talking of this because that recently happen( the only thing that its painful its the wait time... almost 1month in order to get it, but i get it!)

Added to first post. Good info. Too bad the thread didn't last longer.

Opening tickets has been hit and miss for most people having problems. Users are being forced into purchasing the tool because of a lack of support from the creators. No one is upset that they created the tool, just at the lack of support on it. You said yourself that you had to wait a month to get a response. Why not just open the application up for anyone to use as it is on nearly every other device in this forum? The Rhodium is aging quickly. There are fewer and fewer new users with this device. For them to still be charging for it is kind of ridiculous now. That's the purpose of this thread is to encourage collaboration of the users here into developing a truly free version with no hiccups or workarounds needed to eliminate the need for an entire thread dedicated to support questions where the answer is likely to be, "donate 4GBP and it'll work."
Same issue here with getting new phone back from warranty. Already "donated" 4x's for my family's phones. Started a ticket explaining the warranty/new phone situation and now has been 3 weeks with no response. Stock ROM on the phone kept freezing several times a day and phone was pretty useless. Could not wait any longer so "donated" again, restarted hardsplash process again and it let me right through and unlocked phone.
Pretty rude not to respond to "customers" and bad for business. At least put on their website clearly stated that 'you must pay to unlock your phone each time!'
Once someone says they have started development on a new FREE hardspl I will donate 10$....
I would also hope that the mods delete the old hardspl so noone gets suckered into paying for something that should have always been free.

Point of a bounty is to pledge that you will donate once it is complete.
Not to donate before then.
Nothing is donated until it is completed.
But, once completed, all those that pledged to donate, make their donations to whoever completed it.
It is not enforcable, but, it is a commitment. And people remember when a pledge is made, but not paid.
Is the $10 you mentioned a pledge to donate when it is completed or made free to all?
You act like I wont donate the money IF it comes out....it would be a suprise if someone made a new hardspl for an old phone but it would make me happy since I usually keep my phone for a long time...
I had my shadow/juno all the way up until I think 08....then the screen started going white and I didnt feel like taking it apart just to fix it but it was a good phone.
I dont usually make it a point to check the site every day but I come back from time to time when I feel like it's time to mess with my phone some more. I will probably check back in Dec and if I am late to throw my money into the pot once its completed I say sorry now so as not to make tensions flare.
Hell I would drop another 10 IF the new hardspl comes out and the mods DELETE NOT lock the other hardspl from cmo/oli.
You guys are more than welcome to donate on your own terms, but I'm just going to keep a running total of all donations offered in the first post. The conditions I originally posted for collecting the bounty were someone making a new HSPL tool, modding the original one to be standalone, or olipro/cmonex making the original one free. If someone clears one of those three conditions, I think they should get the bounty. If anyone has any objection to that, or something to add, let me know.
EDIT: Make sure you guys are doing some PR work to get this thing out there, please. Feel free to add this thread to your sig, or comment about it in other threads (albeit subtly). Most of us who are pledging donations so far are have already got our devices HSPL'd. This is for the benefit of the community as a whole. While not as many are doing so, there are still new users popping up everyday with new TP2's in their hands asking for help. We're doing this for them.

That is not correct. I have an outstanding ticket for over 5 months. No reply.

I've paid/donated 4GBP six times in the last couple of months as I've been unlocking TP2s for friends. Yesterday for the first time, the Hard SPL tool failed to work after submitting the payment. I contacted the support email address and attached my PayPal payment receipt ... but of course no response.
Add my $10 pledge to the bounty pool.

I tried to retweet your tweet last night, but it was too long once RT and @CFB_XDA was added to the tweet. I was at a stop light at the time and did not try further once I was driving.
