[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Fish-Man:
Hi,

I am trying to update my Kaiser, so for the last few weeks, I have read LOADS of threads, FAQ's, and Tutorials on the subject.

I am very well versed in PC Hardware, and a bit of a technogeek, but this is the first smart phone I have had (a cast off from a friend of mine).

I have followed the many threads on the upgrading process, and have managed a few bits of the process, but I am now stuck at burning the Kaiser-HardSPL-3.56-Hard2.nbh.

(BTW I picked this because it seemed to be the latest version, and as I will be going to Win 6.5, I just thouight it "best" to start with).

I start up the PDA, wait for the OS, connect the USB cable and sync.

When that is finished, on the PDA, I run explorer and then run JumpSPL1.94-KAIS.exe from device memory.

The PDA reboots to the tri coloured screen and shows:

Security Unlocked

KAIS130

SPL-1.94.0000

CPLD-8

USB

I unplug the USB cable, wait for 15 secs, plug the cable back in.

On the PC, I un-tick 'Allow USB Connections', then I run KaiserCustomRUU.exe (with the .nbh file in the same folder).

The PC reports back that it is checking the information on the PDA, then the progress bar appears on the PC and the PDA.

They both jump to 100% in about 1 sec, then the PDA reboots itself. When I check the information on boot up, or with a 'camera-stylus' reset, the information displayed is exactly the same as it was before the procedure.

I've tried it on an XP (x32) machine using Active Sync, and a Win 7 (x64) machine using Windows Mobile Device Center, and I get the same results every time

I have performed many soft and hard resets of the Kaiser, many reboots of the PC's, and much cursing....

At the moment -

On boot-up, I have:

R 1.70.OliNex

G 25.65.30.04H

D 3.28.00.00

At the tri coloured screen, I have:

Security Unlocked

KAIS130 MFG

SPL-1.0.OliPof

CPLD-8

USB

Am I being thick here ? or should the "SPL-1.0.OliPof" on the tri-coloured screen change ?

Please can someone give me a bit of guidance.

Thanks & Regards,
