http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299650

Solution of this issue was alredy described here on xda, i will look for it. i will look for the solution and post it later here.
I am not sure if SD flash will be solution - how long will the device stay powered on if you enter bootloader and leave it, not trying to flash it again
EDIT: my dangerous idea about connecting power wires directly to device was deleted from this post it may work, but that is on each other ones decision to try it

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=303257
this is the thing...be carefull with it. this is not as i remembered, do not connect wires directly to battery! maybe it will be hard to get similar battery...i am not electrotechnician, in these things, i am allways risking - and it works often

I need backup od sd my mda is freeze on splash screen could you send me the backup ?? on my mail ?? [email protected] please

hi, i'm sorry but my compact II is in the tecnical assistence, to see if they can bring it to life again...
if i get solution then i'll backup and it to you.

Hi, I have the same problem
Hi I have the same problem as your phone, the battery says its dead even after charge (was OK before upgrade), Did you find a answer for this problem ?
Thanks

8125 Problems

I recently bought an 8125, it came with Farias WM6 custom ROM. After using it for a few days, I realized that I wasn't receiving a lot of my calls when the phone had been in sleep mode for awhile. I found the thread, that this is a known problem with WM6 ROMs, but can't find the thread now. Anyways, there was a cab fix, that I tried and no help. So I tried to flash a new ROM (XDS WM6v3), and the results were that I could not boot up at all, got the 3 colors screen. So I used Wizard Love, which appears to have put me back to WM5, which I am fine with as long as it works. My new problem, is that my storage card is not recognized. Please remember I am almost completely dumb at this, so I need detailed guidance. I have been reading, but the terminology on a lot of things are tough, then I have to read more. I am on dial up, so it is taking forever to try and get a remedy. I just want a working phone, either with WM5 or WM6, it doesn't matter. There are so many ROMS, I am overwhelmed, I would be happy with whatever ROM came stock on this phone as long as it works, receives calls, storage card works, and I can put a few apps on it. Oh its a G4 phone.
HELp
What up fella,
First question, in a card reader, can you access your storage card? WM6 allows users to encrypt the card so its only usable from the pda. You can always reformat the card.
If you are leary or need more time researching, no problem. Then I suggest you reflash the OEM 8125 rom from cingular (U R on cingular, right?). Anyhoo, here is the link to download the OEM rom from HTC's website [Click Here]
Peace

My understanding is that G4 phones are a little trickier to install custom roms. I'd suggest reading the G4 wizard section until your eyes bleed. My wiz is a G3...and for the record...are you CERTAIN that your phone is G4? If so, I am not totally sure (like I said, I have a G3), but I am not aware of too many custom roms for the G4 devices. As for the storage card issue...remove the card, get into bootload mode, allow it to reset, then put the storage card back in. I found out when my wizard almost died, that SOMETIMES if you have the storage card in the phone while you are flashing and/or hard resetting the device, it sometimes won't read the miniSD. I wish I could help you more. Good luck. Hopefully one of our resident Wizard wizard's will read this and work their magic for you.
How did you verify if this you have a G3 or G4. If you have a G4 realize that you are not going to unlock it, for free anyway. If this is the case your best bet is to use soft spl to flash, right now this is the easiest way. I did it on a G4 Tmobile MDA. But you should first make sure you have a G4, if it is a G3 as I have noticed 8125's are, then you are in luck and you can unlock it and will have no problem flashing any wm6 rom. Send me a PM if you'd like. I am not the wisest but I am willing to provide any advice my newbie self can. worst case you can always put wizard love from the boot screen back on it.

You posted this problem in another thread,where many senior members gave you valid advises,there was no need to start a new thread for this.
Anyway as you say you don't care much to upgrade and wud be happy with stock cingular Rom,than I must advise you to download the official cingular Rom from it's website and flash,as you say it's a G4,it doesn't require any unlock or any other specific method to flash it being the official Rom,just download and run the 'romupdateutility' application and it'll flash all by itself.Your all problems will be solved.
but if you are willing to upgrade and confident to take the risk than read all the threads regarding G4 devices,before posting and post in the correct thread....But don't start new threads and SPAM!!
cheers

Thanks for the posts guys. I will be working on this today using the replies. Yes, I know I posted for help in another thread, but the thread has disappeared along with the advice that was given to me. I had it bookmarked to come back to, but the link is now not found. I now only have 2 posts, the 2 in this thread.

Oh ! ok it's alright but just make up you mind and have clear concepts as to what you really like to do,do you want to go back to stock wm5 rom or interested in upgrading to newer wm6 upgrades,cuz in either situation the methods are entirely different,as you have a G4 device,remember it's a very tricky device,anyway it's all upto your decision,but whatever you decide,we are here to help you out the best we cud
good luck
Thanks! I would rather just go back to the stock ROM, get something that works and take the pressure off, by not having a working device. Then I can spend time at my leisure, to learn, and maybe down the road I may be more interested in custom ROMs.
Update-I reflashed Wizard Love, and still cannot access my storage card. I then loaded the stock ROM from HTC's website, from the link above. I still cannot access my storage card. It says my expansion slot is in use, but I can't see the card under memory, file explorer, or exploring from Active Sync.
Another update- Tried another card, and it worked. Tried my card in another phone, and it didn't recognize it. I will be borrowing a card reader and reformatting. If it doesn't work, then somehow my card went bad, coincidenatally at the same time I flashed a new ROM.
Update- Got a reader and re-formatted the card-- I am back in business, and the phone can actually receive calls, after sleeping all night! Thanks to all!

usb not reconizer HELP

my computer is not reconizer this my Kaiser help me urgent
That's very little information. Has it ever worked? What have you changed recently? Does your computer even acknowledge that the device was plugged in? Is there an existing partnership?
You can try ending all partnerships between the computer and the phone. Without knowing what you've done, it's hard to give any more advice than that.
I'd also direct you to the Wiki and the Sticky...they both have lots and lots of information about the phone. I'm just assuming this has something to do with flashing a ROM on your phone because it's in the Upgrading forum and not the general Kaiser forum.
dont understand, i have windows xp and activesync dont have reconizer the kaiser!!! and dont flash the pda :S:S
Your English is obviously poor.
So, try this:
1) delete your devise from Activesync.
2) reboot your computer
3) plug in your phone to the computer.
Make sure you have the latest version of ActiveSync as well.
If I understand you correctly, you have not flashed your phone. Is that correct? If I am correct and you are still using the original ROM and software, then this question really belongs in the Kaiser forum and not the Kaiser Upgrading forum.

If this is the best you can come up with after people have tried to help then I guess you haven't read the WIKI yet.
It's obvious English isn't your first language, but if you don't read AND understand the WIKI then you will break your phone.
If necessary get a friend to help with translation. Or post your question in English and your own language - then maybe someone on the forum who speaks your language can help out.

Xperia brainfart: Problems with flashing

So people around here sometimes get troubled with regular flashing that doesn't work anymore.
I'll explain my problem on this part:
I flashed to a new ROM just to find out that i didn't like the content so i wanted to flash back to TOUCH X.
I did the usual stuff to flash my phone with, Hardspl, then bootloader etc. etc.
PROBLEM!
Now all my phone seems to be doing is go into bootlader and start updating. However, after 3 seconds i get the message that the update is complete. My phone resets itself, and i found out that nothing has changed. I tried it a number of other times, without results.
Now my question is: is there any other way to do this, this is obviously not working!
post all your ideas here so other people can read this in case that they have the same problem!
Everytime you flash a ROM, you do not need to hardspl your device, only once...I would reformat your memory card,use a stock original rom and see if it will flash with that....usually the issue you are seeing is because the nbh file is not being read properly, make sure your nbh file is named correctly.I have had the issue earlier in my days where if I copied the nbh file through active sync something gets screwed in the transfer...used an external card reader and copied it to my memory card after formatting it and it went through....just some suggestions....Good Luck
Regards,
WC

Nope, didn't do anything..
Any other suggestions?
EDIT: Really a lot of thanks for anyone helping, i really would love to start flashing again!
grateful for the help arnt you..
try flashing the USB method, if it works its probably due to your memory card. (unless ur already using the usb method, then try the memory card method!)
How do i use the USB method exactly?
And really guys, thanks for all the feedback, maybe make this a sticky for future reference?

well what you do is download the file attached to this post (it is available in one of the stickies but when i tried to download it, it failed so i zipped this one up for you)
extract the .exe within to where your nbh file is (not on xperia, on computer)
make sure there is no KOVSIMG.nbh on your memory card!
put your phone in bootloader (tricolour screen) and plug in via USB
run the custom_RUU.exe and follow the prompts pressing next etc.
you don't have to sync via activesync 1st like it says.
ignore the version number of the ROM just make sure your using the correct nbh and flash!
urm i think you should at least try to look at the stickies .........
this is very useful. i had problem flashing using micro sd so all my flashes are via usb.

Himalaya Radio Upgrade

Hi I have
HTC Himalaya PH10A
[CE OS 5.2.23001 (Build 23001.5.0.60)]
and I want to upgrade my radio v1.06.01
I downloaded two radio versions v1.17 and v1.19
i read that v1.17 is most stable version,
and v1.19 has a flight mode issue but it is the latest version
I dont use flight mode so I would like to upgrade to v1.19
but my connector is broken so i can only use SD card
so my question is how to upgrade new radio with SD card on my himalaya
i cant find this anywhere i used search and nothing, or im searching wrong
pliz help!
1.17 is better anyway.
ok then ill use 1.17
but i didnt get an answer how to upgrade new radio with SD card
i think it's no so easy to upgrade your hima from sd, you need to have a sdcard backup for have some information and the only way for do a sdcard backup it's to have your connector.
i think it's better to solder your connector on your motherboard.
i already done the rom upgrade with sd card, friend has the same himalaya and we did it with his!
but is it the same process for radio rom install with sd card??

Don't know it exactly, it should be the same. Can you wait about 2 or 3 weeks.
I'll disassemble the old one of aeroflyluby and use the spare parts. Are you able to solder a new used connector or is the mainboard damaged?
i think its not damaged, idiot in some mobile service soldered only 2 pins just for charging but usb doesent work, i dont even have a usb cable or a cradle so i find out few months later at my friends place, i seen this when i opened my himalaya the guy didnt even tell me that he done that
but i cant solder small pins like that, even he couldnt do it i think!
i would like to update my radio cause sometimes i cant get normal connection in places where is normal signal, and for the battery life cause my battery lasts on only one day if i use it a little
Did you test this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=596798
Underclocking when the phone isn't used works fine. You don't have to overclock, if you don't want to! Just set max speed to 400mHz.
So, it is a new connector badly mounted to your device? There should be a workaround to fix it, maybe someone else knows to fix that easyly !?!

Great! I was thinking you cannot use two Himas and do it this way!
Then the Radio upgrade should also work the same way.

***IMPORTANT***
Please make sure you have HardSPL on your device. And also make sure you have more than 50% of battery left or you can plug in a charger just to make sure there is no power failure. I am not sure if SIM unlocked is necessary prior to performing these steps, so hopefully someone (maybe pof) can help me with this. DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
1. Get a 128MB MicroSD card (or whatever size you like) and format it (***please make sure you format it, but not just delete all contents on it) NOTE : Make sure you format it FAT32
2. find the Radio image you would like to use, normally named RUU_Signed.nbh, and rename it to "KAISIMG.nbh" [i think this part is not for hima, its Radio_.nbf]
3. Plug the card into the phone, then enter boot loader mode by pressing down the Power and Camera buttons simultaneously, and using the stylus at the same time to press the RESET button at the left side. Continue pressing the two buttons for a few seconds after pressing and releasing the reset button until the bootloader screen appears. (taken from Wiki)
4. You will first see a tri-color screen then the information on the card. Press power button to start flashing.
5. After all these are done, press the reset button located at the bottom of the phone to reset the device.
DISCLAIMER
I take no responsibility for any conflict, fault, or damage caused by this flashing procedure. No warranties of any kind are given.
Can we try this on our himalaya??
No. We can't

Tytn 2 Mistake

Hy guys,
i've a problem with my father's tytn2:
he brought the phone one year ago, and i've discovered that comes with a cooked rom that doesn't work very well (incoming call and wifi problems).
Yesterday (ex leo owner and not totally noob) i decided to try a new rom but i can't understand looking inside the hard drive of the phone if the precedent owner use SSPL or HSPL
of course i don't won't to run the risk to brick the phone, so i decided to follow a guide and first flash a shipped rom then install a cooked rom...
i prepared the files descripted in the noobs guide and try to flash the shipped HTC rom, but after i sync the phone and after i start to flash the phone get out of the sync mode
i can just arrive at the screen with the trasfering file, but the counter stay still to 0% and the phone sync off alone
i do everything with windows vista but i can use XP and seven, if you tell me that there is a stranger incompability...
someone could help me solving this mistake?
i've never had this problem mounting and unmounting the HD2
thanks a lot everyone, and compliments o the chefs for their incredibile job
sorry for the bad english, but i'm italian =)

Well you might try to flash off the sd card. Rename your rom to kaisimg.nbh place it in the root of your sd card and then restart the phone while keeping the camera button pressed...and follow the instructions on the screen.
to solve a Wifi problem you can use Wifisychip
so i will try with the spl like arturo says, but i've to found an sd card =)
anyone know how can i solve this problem without sd?
