Now you have cmonex's HardSPL2 you never need to touch that again. I always reflash my rom after changing the HardSPL as I always tend to get problems otherwise. Backup programs have tended to cause problems in the past because of the nature of things always changing so only use if you are restoring the exact same rom and even then be careful. I always use an auto installer called sashimi (google it) to reinstall all my cabs and settings after a fresh flash so as to not overwrite anything.

04. Change Internet Browser in Manila2D to Opera mini or SkyFire or anything else (thanks to JNGold):

a. Download and install VJBrisk app (one of Vijay555 tools).

b. Copy vbrisk.exe from where you installed it (the default is Program Files\vijay555\VJBrisk) to your storage card.

c. Rename the Copy you made to OperaL.exe and move the file to the windows directory (overwriting OperaL.exe).

d. Download and install the internet browser you want to use.

It is stated in the guide that Flashing via microsd card is only to upgrade the HardSPL after an existing HardSPL has been sucessfully flashed to your phone, and cmonex's version does fix alot of freezing problems that can occur with WM6.1 so its always worth doing. Thats the main reason its not on as optional but its not essential if you dont have any problems with the standard HardSPL so I think I will give it the optional marking. Thanks for the tip im always trying to make things as easy to understand for noobs :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] networkdood:
Thanks

I was thinking of reflashing after downloading hardSPL2, but the rom is working great. I use Sprite Backup and always label (along with the description) which rom the backup is for. I will check out the weather link you gave me and I am still working with Pocket Mechanic and have not had a chance to test it out. As for the browser change, I never downloaded opera, so I will have to investigate it. Thanks, for your help - i feel less noobish now.

Weather R US

I went through the process from scotchua:

Here are the steps:

1) Open HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml using Notepad.

2) You will see many cities listed like this:

<city name="Anchorage, US" loca="NAM|US|AK|ANCHORAGE " land="United States " /> (original)

<city name="Ketchikan, AK" loca="NAM|US|AK|KETCHIKAN" land="United States" /> (copied and edited)

Simply copy one of the cities from your country, or state and then edit the city information. You will notice in the example above i have changed "Anchorage, US" to "Ketchikan, AK" as this is just what will display on the screen. The section marked loca=con"CONTINENT|COUNTRY|STATE|CITY" must be typed in correctly or else you will not get any data.

3) Repeate step 2 for as many cities as you would like to add.

4) Disable touchflo on the today screen

5) Copy Manila2D.exe (if you are not using the version already patched), and your newly edited HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml file to the /windows folder.

With this use TouchCommanderCE

6) Enable touchflo on the today screen again.

7) Go to weather and add new city, the new cities should be available to you. I would remove any old cities you had before as well

And, it works!!!!!

Dear mskip,

I am newbie to this and last week I bought a Tytn II from my Norwegian friend. The WM6.1 is in Norwegian and i wanted to flash an English ROM . I read your guide and went to Bootloader screen, I found that it has SPL 3.29.0000 already on it.

How to know whether it is Cmonex or the other one ?

Can I flash official English ROM with this SPL or do I have to go for CID unlock.

As from this you and others in the thread I learnt that once you do a HardSPL CID or SIM unlocking is oprional.

Thanks for wonderful tutorial !:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
You most likley need Hard SPL to flash an the ROM. The SPL in you have at the moment is the stock one. cmonex's (or jockyw's) will say .hard or .hard2 at the end.

Thanks

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ramuk:
Thanks Dave.

It means that HardSPL is not loaded. Does stock bootloader is one which comes with the phone originally ? It means that HTC also has 3.29 version of SPL. I would try to load HardSPL mentioned in post #1 this in the evening.

:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
All our Hard SPL's are patched versions of the Stock SPLs, that's why there are so many versions and why the versions match :).

I have a 3.34 Hard SPL I made to match the 3.34 stock SPL - I will release it some day :D

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ramuk:

Thanks a lot Dave !!! I have done my first FLASH !!!:):)

I went home early and started flashing .... I must admit I was **** scared and the my hands were trembling...

Now my SPL shows > 3.29.Hard

Can I flash with English ROM now ? Or I have to install CID unlocker. The phone was not locked to any carrier.

Thanks again to all helpful souls at XDA ...

I know it's from the "Department of Redundancy Department", but I did both. (Flash HardSPL, CID and SIM unlock device). Of course, if you do a CID unlock, you will be required to re-flash a radio so you can actually make use of your device. (I have found that 1.71.09.01 eMo best suits my needs in a device).

installing hardspl on vmware guest pc

hey mskip, many thanks from a newbie for an excelent guide.

just one thing i want to mention since it hasn't been dscussed yet or at least i couldn't find it here.

i tried to install hardspl 3.29 a couple of times and was getting stuck every time at step 11 (KaiserCustomRUU.exe couldn't connect to the phone).

i then realized that i was doing it in virtual machine (vmware workstation 6.5, window xp pro) and most likely usb connection didn't work as expected, even though i didn't have any problem syncing via activesync.

anyway, i installed activesync on the host pc (win xp pro) and it ran like a charm.

not a big deal, but if it might save some time future testers i think it's worth while mentioning on the first page, up to you.

thanks again mate, keep it up!

Stable rom issues, can't change radio or SIM/CID

My bootloader display :

SPL-3.29. HARD2

CPLD-8

I have since finally found a rom that works great. I flashed PDACornerUltimate.V19.2G and I must say it is the best rom I have ever flashed on my kaiser. The fact that I can not change the radio is not a concern anymore because what I have (1.65.28.25) is really well rounded it seems.

I spent 3 horrible days staying up to 7am trying different, roms, Hard Spl's, reading through hundreds of forums, etc seeming like I would never find a solution. For some reason I tried almost every rom except for PDACorner. I wish I would have tried them first I would have had more time to finish more important responsibilties in my life however the pain and frustration now seems worth it.:D

I thank you for creating such a informative forum it has helped me and I wish I would have read this forum when I first started flashing two years ago on my Hermes. ;)

Glad you sorted it out in the end, if you do want to change your radio in the future then read *THIS* thread which explains how to change it. Some of the older "Radios from Hell" get stuck and arent soo easy to change as other but there are ways and I would advise giving the Unlocker another go which should sort out your problems with it.

On a different note, I think almost everyone upgraded from a Hermes to a Kaiser. I still have my old Hermes and it works well APART from the direction and green and red front buttons dont work at times which is kind of annoying lol. I think my next upgrade will have to be the HTC Touch Pro 2 when it arrives in England, it looks fantastic its just a shame HTC cant keep up with everyone else and give the phone a decent camera :( All that power and a crappy 3.2MP camera with NO flash its crazy lol.

Fat 32 sucks

It sucks when your flash card does something weird and now every file is unrecognizable with gobblygoop in place of the file names.

Anyways, an easy way to format your SD card to FAT32 is to place it, along with a SD adapter into your appropaite PC slot and go to (on XP) Admin tools, Computer Management and then choose Disk Management. Right click the correct drive and choose format to FAT32.

It sucks as I thought I had backupped some info last month...it is not there (of course)..so from now on I will backup information like every other day into an easy to find file.

I hope no one else loses their stuff, especially irreplaceable pics and videos, etc.

SKIP, yeah I get to that screen after it done loading. So, I have 3.29.HardSPL2, now if I upgrade to 3.56.HARDSPL2, do I have to downgrade to regular HardSPL 3.56, then follow the steps again to get 3.56.HardSPL2?

Thanks, I know I will eventually figure it out. I gotta stop doing this half asleep...lol...maybe you can post on your FAQ that not only does your battery have to be at 50%, but you also have to at least 50% awake!

Update** I now have 3.56 HardSPL and am still attempting to upgrade to cmonex's patched version HARDSPL2 **

2nd update: ok, I used cmonex's patched 3.29 to upgrade from 3.56 Hard reg SPL, and now I have 3.56.HardSPL2. I did this using the files in the "cmonex HardSPL 3.29 usb" zip file. It appears that this particular file upgrades your normal HARDSPL to HARDSPL2, regardless of which version you have. Interesting....

I have followed the steps to flash my first rom. Everything goes exactly how it is written, except for when it is done flashing, it does not go to the configure/align stylus screen. It instead goes right to the main windows screen. i have done this about ten times to make sure im ruling out operator error. I do run Vista, is that a problem?

I would appreciate any help. I am lost otherwise.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
Probably just the ROM you are using. Odd though, I know what can cause it, but I didn't think the ROM would work if you didn't align screen :confused:

Try another ROM, or just Hard Reset from the "main windows screen" and then start using.

Did you successfully flash HardSPL to your phone first? Can you go into the Bootloader and verify you have 3.29.hard and if not then what version of SPL you have. You need to complete the HardSPL before attempting to flash a rom.

If you are having problems with vista then try flashing via microsd card.

When you turn on your wifi it should bring up a list of available routers. Select your preffered network and click ok. Then select "The Internet" and click connect.

Firstly if you had HardSPL on your phone then the bootloader screen would say .hard at the end. If it doesnt then I would definitely not try to flash a rom as you could very easily brick your nice phone. Have you tried flashing HardSPL? If you are getting errors then describe whats going wrong.

Make sure you get HardSPL on your phone before you attempt to do anything else. If you need more help then write back.

Well I'm right now @ work so I dont have my phone will check when I get to the car but I believe it says 3.29hard.

But when I check task manager it is running in the backround even when I soft reset or just turn it off it is automatically on but wont sync for the life of it. So I then checked out your thread for the sd flashing. Now I think I did everything right I save the htc stock rom to my desk top. Then I renamed the whole thing on the desk top KAISIMG.nbh and then copied it to my sd card right on the first page of files. After doing that went into bootloader mode and it blinks to a screen saying loading and before u can even read anything else it says it goes right back to bootloader. So now I have no idea what the hell to do
