I have installed Hard SPL.
Before to install new rom I use MTTY:

task 32
task 28
task 2A
info 8
task 8

after this, the Cruise don't restart.
I think it's died.
It is possible to recover it?
The Pc recognize the Cruise as Data Interface and try to install a driver that I haven't.
Please help me, if possible....

Same thing happened to another user in Italy, he tried every solution but no one worked, you have to send your Polaris to the assistence.
I think Mtty doesn't work with the Polaris.

This is dumb! Why did you use mtty? Flash HardSPL and then flash any ROM you like. Why did you ruin your Cruise?
Do you still get to the bootloader? (Hold Camera and push Reset pin with stylus)

Try to flash a ROM from SD-Card: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1941363&postcount=6

I hope you would be more lucky 'cause the other user tried also to flash from MicroSD but nothing :(

He erased the bootloader then? Cleared the whole ROM? Why do ppl do that? There is NO INSTRUCTION give in either the HardSPL nor the HardSPL+Unlocker thread to do that.
You could play around with the PC Emulator and then transfer the bootloader onto the device, but it's very complicated and a novice user won't be successful.

Another problem was the unrecognizement of USB port, i think Mtty erased many parts of the flash memory.

I'm a stupid... I think to use MTTY before to flash rom so I have my Cruise to a clear format status. (Excuse for my bad english)
I hope this is as an example for others....
Tomorrow I'll run to assistance, I'll hope the Service will repair the Cruise in guarantee....

Don't say them what you done, simply say it doesn't work anylonger.

Dude you're a member of this forum since 2005, didnt the idea that a PPC is completely different than a regular PC ever cross your mind? There is no such thing as a key combination for example which will boot your Vista in an original and clean state ;)

However, only follow instructions given in the thread and nothing more, nothing less.
I highly doubt it that theyll repair it on warranty, HTC put warnings all over the place, the website and every ROM Updater that the actions you do are on your own risk. And ppl replacing the bootloader with a hacked one (altho it probably got erased as well) isn't really what they had in mind... But keep us updated!

Edit: hell yeah, dont tell anything about what you did! You synched it with your PC as usual. You left it connected over the night to charge and this morning there was a driver search dialog on your PC's screen and the device was laying next to the PC, dead, still connected to the USB port...

I have installed WM6 Pc Emulator on my Pc, I use it to try a program, but the problem is:
- the unrecognizement of USB port
- how transfer the bootloader onto the device
However...Thanks at all and excuse for my bad english...

Never mind, your English is rather good compared to what you can read on this board ;) I'm not a native speaker either, so I don't care anyway.
I don't know those mtty commands, but I guess you wiped the WHOLE memory unit, meaning everything, including bootloader and the very basic stuff. So your Polaris is nothing more than some electronical components in a nice case.
However, I'd go to the support and lie, just lie...

However.... If someone have a solution I can try to test it....
Thanks

Did you already try that?

Kill ActiveSync/Windows Mobile Device Center. Now when you connect your Polaris, does it ask for a driver you dont have or does it display Unrecognized/Unknown device? If asks for a driver, try browsing to the ActiveSync/WMDC directory and look in there for a driver. Then continue as instructed in the post.

hehe, good advice. it worked for a friend of mine, he gave a similar story a year ago when he messed up a device by not following instructions when installing a custom rom.

I'm feeling for ya man, it sucks being without a phone, especially when you just got a new one and it dies! Good luck, I'll be hoping that you get the situation resolved.
