I need some help BAD! My Tilt lost sound and black screen after boot

[shawndh]

I was trying to follow the many different ways to unlock, Hard SPL, and flash a new ROM but this is just way over my head. I think I may have screwed up my phone. I've been reading for 4 hours and I'm just throughly confused (this was so much easier on th Artemis!). I downloaded the jumpSPL1.56-KAS, ran it from the phone (not the storage card). Then I ran Kaiser-HardSPL-3.56 and that seemed to work fine. Then I tried to run step 1 of the KaiserUnlocker and now it will only show me the AT&T boot screen and nothing else after that. What did I do wrong?

I'm trying to unlock the phone so I can use it on T-Mobile USA and flash a new ROM. I've flashed ROMS before but I just never realized how involved this process was on other devices.

And yes, I can get to the boot loader screen.

Ick...this sounds like one of a couple of things...either you really screwed it up (btw, even "really screwed up" has been known to be fixable thanks to the super awesome folks here on XDA Devs) or it's a simple fix. My first suggestion would be to put it back into bootloader (just hold the usualy bootloader buttons and stick the stylus up in the Reset hole OR take the batter out and put it back in, your choice I think) and try rerunning everything EXCEPT the KasierUnlocker (btw, dont quote me but I would almost swear KaiserUnlocker needed a special radio flashed in order to properly work...you may wanna head back to that thread and check it out. I unlocked mine with it and I can about guarantee I had a special radio...) and see if it fixes anything OR find a compatible radio and reflash it (well, first off...get it into bootloader and tell us what the bootloader says on it)

Anyways, first things first would be to see what the bootloader is showing and then work from there. Sounds like a little bug so don't freak out too bad. If you think flashing these babies are hard then you really didnt try flashing G4 versions of the Wizard =P I totally bricked one because it was the pesky G4s and I didn't realize it at the time (complete newbness lol) So yeah, Kaiser's are a LOVELY change for me =] I've flashed mine countless times and loved it since the moment I got it! =D

But yeah, gimme info! =]

Did you use WM6.1 or WM6.0 to unlock the phone? Put in boot loader and flash orginal WM6.0 ROM as the other user suggested. You should be able to flash it if it is not a brick.

If it doesn't work you can use mtty to recover your phone, the needed information you'll find in the Kaiser Wiki.
Hope it helps:)

I just had this exact problem.

Use the EXE included in the tutorial to flash any windows 6.1 ROM from the bootloader via USB, and you will boot again.

I know. The crazy thing is that I've successfully flashed a G3 and a G4 Wizard and I still find this confusing.

When I go to the boot loader screen I have:
KAIS1*0
SPL-3.56.Hard
CPLD-8

When I reset the device normally I get:
R 1.27.12.11
G 22.45.88.07H
D 1.62.00.00

I didn't try to flash any other ROMS to unlock it. I just went with the hard SPL and then tried the Unlock tool. The phone is stock.

Thanx for the replys. I reflashed the original ROM and now it's working again. This is what I have now:

When I go to the boot loader screen I have:
KAIS1*0
SPL-3.56.Hard
CPLD-8

Now when I reset the device normally I get:
ROM version 1.62.502.0
Radio version 1.27.14.09
Protocal version is 22.45.88.07H

Device info:
Windows Mobil 6
CE OS 5.2.1622 (Build 18128.0.4.4)

Can I go strait to a SIM unlocker and then flash a new ROM?

Well you've got HardSPL 3.56 flashed to it.

Why do you need to sim unlock it? Sim unlocking is not neccesary to flash one of the many Roms avaliable for the Kaiser/Tilt.

Once it's got HardSPL flashed, you're free to flash any type of rom onto it

A couple of things:

1) The Kaiser-Unlocker only works on 1.xx hardspl's, so you'll have to put one of those on first.

2) You do need to install the patched radio before you run it.

3) You'll need to flash a compatible radio afterward too, or else your device might not boot all the way.

4) Next time please post these questions in the thread for the unlocker you are using. It makes it much simpler for everyone.

But HardSPL 3.56 doesn't SIM unlock the phone from what I understand. I need to use it with T-Mobile SIM. So I need to chenge to a 1.XX Hard SPL to do this?

So I guess I went wrong with flashing 3.56 first and not 1.1
Then I need to patch the radio
Run the unlocker
rinstall the radio
Then flash the ROM

Problem I have now is that I can't seem to go back down to a lower SPL version.

You need to read the instructions carefully, and ask questions in that thread. All the experts in unlocking will be there to help you.
