A similar harness to the Halti, is a "Gentle Leader" we didnt have much success with the "Halti" either.
We have an over sized male GSD who is now 7 yrs. old and my wife has now started to walk him using the leader, she is riddled with Artheritis and has no power at all, GSD is like your Rottie and is determined to be Alpha dog. She can now control him with the leader so might be worth a try.
She has managed to get a trainer to help her and in just 3 weeks she is wining. He doesnt react to a check chain at all.
We have had a Rottie with similar trates to yours and it is very hard work to prove you and not they are the Alpha, try the leader instead of the Halti it might just work.
This might be hard to accept; but its probably you and not the dog that is the problem.
You also need to be in a calm frame of mind to train your dog, with out losing your cool when things dont go quite right.
Have you read the clicker training book? Its very important to "click" and treat at the right moment for it to work properly.
Another book worth reading is "The Dog Listner" by Jan Fennell, explains why you need to establish you and your dogs position in the pack.
Good luck
Graham
