i tried using the Hard SPL in the TP2 "flashing for noobs" thread and a message appeared saying it wasn't for my phone and it had a high chance of bricking my phone.

I think what you need to realize is that Tilt2 is pretty much a TP2
Anyways there are some ROMs cooked specifically for AT&T...check out the ROM section
But even if you flash some other ROMs, the only thing you have to do is to download the Tilt2 keyboard fix
i know. i have a TP2 ROM on it now, but something about turning on my phone and seeing "TouchPRO2" irks me xD

If you're interested, you can actually change the boot screen to any 480x800 image with this guide by ai6908.

hi. I went to the bootloader screen and I updated my Blueangel. and then i pressed the record and camera buttons and could see the options and then pressed the messaging button but then it gets stuck at the white screen. I can go back to the serial mode update my rom again buit it doesnt change the outcome. Ive read all the posts about mtty with the bootloader ect. I have also tried different ROM downloads but all the ones i try dont work. Any help is appreciated. My parents are being dicks and won't let me use the insurance we have set up cause it costs 50 dollars oh whipppeee thats a lot huh. anyways i cant get another phone so i need to figure this out. Anyone have any ideas?
Did you cooked you own rom? If so, your rom is too big. Try to upgrade to an already made rom or downgrade to wm2003 and try again.
ha i got it taken care of.. i called verizon and theyre sending me a new one for free because its a "software problem" haha my current one had a few scratches on it so were all good!..thanks for your help though lgsilva

First off, this kind of thing is one of the reasons M$ cracked down on the site with it's custom ROMs IMO, people causing the carriers too much grief and money replacing phones with corrupted ROMs that the carrier did not provide.
Second, Verizon is CDMA, not GSM. The only WM5 ROM available is for GSM, not CDMA. That's probably why you messed up your phone.

for your first point: shut up and dont be a dbag.

Oh, that's original, calling me names.
My point still stands. That kind of thing is probably a large factor of why the carriers complained to microsoft and why microsoft cracked down on sites such as this.
Thanks for being part of the problem.
I am interested in trying on of the cooked Roms on my ATT 8525, however I am concerned about converting back to the ATT rom. I would like to use the K's WM6.0 Lite FINAL from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350695
Can I just run the ATT WM6 install like I did when I upgraded from WM5? Or do I need to do something more complicated?
I am sorry for my newbishness, I do not do a whole lot with WM devices, I am mainly a server/pc/network tech.
Thank you for your help,
Gihzmo
it can be done pretty much exactly the same.
ive actually reflashed an att rom back onto a phone after having several roms, and sent the phone back to get it replaced with the warranty

Yes, thats all you have to do if you go back to the AT&T ROM for the 8525. Same as upgrading from WM5.... Good luck and Read, Read, Read.. This forum is addicting...

install hardspl first, with that chances of you turning your phone into a brick dramatically reduces by a factor of 2854.23 exactly

Although you don't HAVE to install hardspl, i've never had a problem just doing safe softspl installs..
Thank you guys very much, im looking for the HardSPL download now and I am going to flash to K's WM6.0 Lite FINAL.

HardSPL is one of the greatest gifts, as XtreMe_G says. Actually I can't imagine not HardSPLing, why take a chance....
I paid $500 buckazoids for my 8525, with the 2 year. Explaining a "brick" to my wife (much less Cingular) when I had the means to not brick... I don't think so.
As a precaution, it's always worth reading MrVanx's Hermes Upgrade Guide
Thank you for your help, I got the new rom on the phone with almost no trouble. I had some issues with my direct push email. But I fixed that by removing the proxy that was set.
This is much, much faster then then the rom I was running before (ATT WM6 release).
The only other problem I seem to have is the weather doesnt seem to want to connect, I looked it up and figured out the code for my city (Danville VA USA) I used NAM|US|VA|DANVILLE
This works if you go through the Accuweather website, but it doesnt want to connect through the phone... anyone have any ideas? The phone goes out to the internet fine, getting email and browsing.
there is plenty of threads about this including this one
Has anyone else noticed this?
My internet speed goes from 1/5 to 1/3 of what it used to be, and the latency is also worse (I tested)...
And my signal is awful/nonexistent in places where it was fine with the Rogers WM6 ROM...
Is there anything I can do? Or should I just wait for the TMo WM6.1 ROM? When's that coming?
I'm with Rogers as well man and the latest ROM is amazing! Full signal - no problem.
Can you give me a link to the lastest and greatest Rogers ROM? Or similiar/better? And about my Q's in the first post...
But Roggers ROM is on WM6.0...
I am With Last Kavana's rom with WM6.1 - best ROM ever for me.
Many programs, many features, super fast.
But the radio is the same as Ricky's, isn't it? Isn't it bad...

you guys don't have to be such @$$holes about it... geez

after that you will be good to go!
When I first got my S621 from Rogers last May with WM5 on it the phone was great, hardly ever had to reboot it for anything. I have had nothing but problems after I upgrade to Rogers 6.0 ROM. With full signal I would not be able to make calls and would first to try reset the phone service through comm manager, which would rarely work, but usually have to reboot the phone, at times often. Due to this problem I even had the phone replaced which did nothing. So far since I installed Ricky's V7 ROM I've had better battery life and have yet to reboot my phone due to not being able to make a call.
In short, I don't see an issue with the Radio or the ROM.
my speed on t-mo seems like its slowed down since i went with rickys from rogers also, my signal itself seems ok and i dont drop calls-maybe miss a word once in awhile but anyways...
does anyone mind telling me if the radio can be improved in any way?(yes im a noob and i really dont know the first thing to look for, but im just asking a simple yes or no question) sorry i dont have luck SEARCHING
I've determined that consistency doesn't exist.
he has everyone right to be an @sshole. how about before you go and say that rickys rom or radio sucks, you ask around first. maybe you are just a moron and its user error? the dude busts his ass to make us cool **** for our phones and you start a thread like this? i wouldnt, nor will i, help you at all. learn some people skills. all i can picture is a 7 year old whining "whaaaaaaaaaa ricky's rom sucks! whhhhhhh"
GO MAKE YOUR OWN THEN.
I'm all Set

OK look you can look for Mikey1022 posts, look at his sig--see the mediafire link at the bottom--click on that --click on ROMS-you can see all the radios that have been posted recently. Download a couple of them and see what happens, if the old radio works for you then your good and dandy--or as they say in New England, NOW YOUR ALL SET ASS. Hows that for one liners?
Heres the link

Ok, I'll make my own.
Whereabouts on the ROM is the radio stored? It's not just the radio.dll, right?
Hi, I had this phone for awhile and no matter what rom is use. it hard resets on its own.
it happens every 2 - 3 months. I always flash a stock rom before i use a custom one and remove all the cards.
so what could be my problem?
thanks.

Hahah, well.. it depends where your letting your mind drift to!
I don't think that knocking, kicking or touching wood will help .
It's strange, never had the problem, but offcourse, I flash new ROMs a bit often than few months (sometimes, 2-3 times a week ).

I had this problem
I had this problem after upgrading to TNT .19199 (which I think but am not 100% sure, is WM6.1)
My phone **** itself at least 20 times in 2 weeks before I went back to TNT.1921(which I think but am not 100% sure, is WM6.0).
That was 3 months ago and it hasn't happened since

Is is possible/safe to install a ROM made for the AT&T Tilt 2 to be installed on a AT&T Tilt 1?
No, not at all. If you actually manage to flash a Rhodium (Tilt2) ROM onto an original Kaiser (Tilt), you'll likely end up with an unusable brick. There are huge differences between them in hardware, kernels, etc. The only true similarity is the name, not much else.

Why don't you find a ROM made for the Tilt/Kaiser and flash that? They have WM6.5 ROMs available.
