Cavalier SSPL (JumpSPL) & HardSPL

Please find attached a SSPL (also known as JumpSPL) for Cavalier. Running it will allow you to flash a HardSPL. The HardSPL is a SPL (bootloader) which can not be overwritten and which allows you to flash roms (both official and cooked roms) and rom parts (radio, OS, splash, etc). If you want to replace the HardSPL you must run the SSPL again and then flash another SPL.
Make sure your device is application unlocked. If not, run the attached SDA unlocker on your PC and reboot your device when prompted.
Connect your device with a usb cable and make sure activesync is green and ready with syncing. Unzip the files in a single directory on your PC and run "sspl.bat". Confirm each step by pressing enter and also check the display of your device.
If all goes well the display changes to the tricolor bootloader screen or it may turn grey, black or white. Disconnect and reconnect usb cable and wait 20 seconds. The activesync will disconnect. Unzip "HardSPL-Cavalier-1.0-JockyW.zip" and flash the HardSPL by running "ROMUpdateUtility.exe".
Rom cooking for Cavalier can now start.
Have fun!

I am seing the same behavior.
IMHO this phone is basically abandonware. HTC shipped a quad band world phone but is offering essentially zero support or updates for it.

Well, using the jumpspl I was able to get the WWE rom to at least try to install. Then it hangs with an "update error" code 262 and quasi-bricks the device. Running the RUU for the hardspl un-blocks it.
At this time all I've managed to do is replace the HTC boot logo with the dopod boot logo.
Edit: success. Key to success: RTFM and a bit of reading between the lines.
1- Run the jumpSPL batch file. Make sure the screen on the phone has not blanked. Watch it. When asked if it is OK to run the jumpspl, say yes. Then observe at the bottom of the display what appears to be the top of a button on the warning screen: click the center d-pad button for OK.
2- Now you should see the rainbow colored rom loader and text on the screen indicateing it is the "jump" variant. Look at the bottom of the display do you see the text "USB"? If not unplug and re-plug the usb cable. The text "USB" should show up now.
3- Run the hardspl RUU package. It should work now.
4- After a reboot of the device and what not you can now flash the latest WWE build from the FTP server or whatever cooked bit syou migth be trying.

I run the RUU updater step to step and see this error, what problem

Restore stock SPL for wannarty reason

Hi there, I am new to here but I have following questions which couldn't find out from this forum yet.
I understand I could restore stock SPL (1.35 or 1.93) by performing RUU. But how could I know what is the stock SPL for my Diamond? Moreover, as per HTC Customer Service Representative, they are not only verify the SPL but SPL2 and IPL also. Will flashing ROMs from xda-developers change the SPL2 or IPL?
My machine's screen is getting unalignable, and thus I am very eager for HTC could fix it without charges. It's appreciate if anyone could help me out. Thanks.
Regards,
Season Lau

Thanks for anybody's help.

Basically it's easy
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2324829&postcount=39
look here and use
RUU-SSPL-withoutNBH.zip (1.79 MB, 3691 views)
RUU_Signed_SPL193stock.zip (136.5 KB, 2989 views)
these two, extract them both in the same folder and run the ruu
thats the way i did it and it worked fine

1, Flash with a stock ROM first.
This is HK WWE version: http://andrewloh.com/HTC/Diamond/stock/RUU_Diamond_hTC_Asia_HK_WWE_1.93.831.1.exe (For other country and other language, pls find it by yourself)

Once complete, please configure the device and let the Diamond start normally.
Go to Settings>Connection>"USB to PC" and uncheck the "Enable Advanced Networking Functionality" option.
2, To restore"Stock SPL", download and unzip:
http://andrewloh.com/HTC/Diamond/stock/RUU-SSPL-withNBH.zip
Plug the USB cable to connect your Diamond with PC, make sure ActiveSync connected.
Copy "SSPL-Manual.exe" to Internal Storage on your Diamond.
On your Diamond, execute "SSPL-Manual.exe" and confirm to trust the excutable. Your Diamond screen will turn "BLACK" and ActiveSync will disconnect. *This is normal behavior***
Execute the ROMUpdateUtility.exe.
Your Diamond will automatically restart when finished.
2, Confirm successful
To make sure stock SPL has been flashed back, press and hold "Vol-" key and use stylus to press reset once. until you see the tricolor screen.
If you see "SPL-1.35.0000" on the screen, then cheers !!

Hi Prewien & Andrewloh, I know how to restore the SPL but I don't what's the stock SPL of my machine. As far as I know, 1.35 and 1.93 are stock SPL for Touch Diamond, but which is mine? And that's my concern. Thanks.

What is yours? good question with many answers.

There are many forms of Touch Diamond branded by operators like t-mobile MDA and O2 have the XDA.
Do you have a branded version?
Its always better to provide more information in you question to receive a more responsive answer.

oh.. we don't have branded verison in my country.. so seems i over looked such concern on a global site like xda-developers...

Problem
I have a tiny problem, i have a similar problem with the screen and i am sending to htc but first i need the stock SPL...the problem is that i cant access my phone since i cannot get passed the align screen in booting of the phone is there another way to restore stock SPL (by the way i already restored the stock rom.

after replace i click on ROMUpdateUtility ... 100% done
i not sure how to see if i do it correctly
so i reinstall back HardSPL_Olinex137_Unsigned
Right now version number on tricolour screen

You dont need to use ActiveSync by the way........
You dont even need to have your Diamond boot into Windows Mobile.
You can simply flash through SPL.
This is how:
1. Restart phone and hold Volume Down, this will bring you into tri color screen showing SPL.
2. Plug it in to your computer, on the bottom of your screen it will switch from SERIAL to USB.
3. Open your flasher (SPL or what ever you are trying to flash), then flash it as if its a ActiveSync connection.
This is exactly the same as flashing it as if you are in Windows Mobile, since the flashing program simply sends a signal over ActiveSync and tell it to reboot into Bootloader (SPL) then starts the flashing.
Instead if you are already in bootloader (SPL) it wont bother restarting into SPL, and simply start flash.

i think my is flashed

if you like not to bite you to fix it via a memory card. changes you ruu_signed.nbh to HERMIMG.nbh. you know how he is and not as you write here. turn off the phone. and to enter bootloader using the buttons on the left side of the phone and right side. written on the keys is ok and the second is a button-down / power key. the two buttons pressed and the current bootloader does not start. when to place. so sorry. Sorry but my English is poor

It seems that you're using Vista or windows 7. Try to find a windows XP computer and up that rom again.

Some ports are opened!
Lemme xplain this... osmetimes the drivers of our pcs gets closed and opened constantly in some proceses and in the upgrade it happends so... softreset your device it must go to bootloader reconect your phone and try again... if not works...
Do the upgrade via SD: as the guy upper tell you change the nbh name as he says and copy the file to your CLEAN!!! micro SD 1-2 Gygas it doesnt works in MicroSD bigger than 2Gygas ok? insert the SD and reenter to Bootloader it beguns to upgrade... be sure your batt has enough charge... more than 50% MORE than that! i suggest.

Mine does the exact same thing everytime, on Windows XP, here is what I do now.
Run it, and when the phone gets to the red, white, green, etc screen, and says USB across the bottom, unplug the USB cable, and plug it back in, this works everytime for me.

it is easier and a lot safer to use sd card flash

thanks...
i'll try all of your suggestions... if nothing happens , hopefully not... what ROM is stable? ROM does not freezes up... thank you and have a good day.

nothing
I tried the SD card upgarding... after updating it froze up welcome part.... nothing happens... by the after the Updating Complete what will I do?

redo the same thing but first.... upgrade the stripped original att
wait till the bar reach 100% and start boots... then unplug the sd card...
perform a hardreset let it boot... the upgrade again with sd card wichever rom you want and unplug the sd card when the bar reach 100% and start boots... then when it is in welcome splash image... perform hardreset!!!
I will write this f·$"n leyend in my siggy!!!!!

helloo..
How do i do the upgarde stripped original att? and were can DL the file... and can i do using SD upgrade..

almost all the chefs (include me) we have at first post of our roms thread a link to it... just DL it unpackit rename it... and copy it to the sd inserted and follow the steps... i told you! oh if mine doesnt works, try yours... seems that works fine
oh charge your battery dude.

worst thing happened...

NO WAY!!!!!!​
You are not hardspled!!!!! what happend Tho you have unlocked your device!!!
Man how could you upgrade the SPL in that way!!!!!!??????
I think that your phone goes off because you dont have enough battery to upgrade.... or maybe its just that the SPL is not unlocked!!!
Man this is serious!
you need an XP you need your battery fully charged
try to get a new USB cable... and try to get a ROM that match to your Carrier and country... this is no good... check the Siganture of CRCinAU he has a repository of shipped original ROM.

Once you get it... enter to Bootloader and start the upgrade... make it on XP!!!! nad with many batt!!!... unplug your sd card and the sim too (dont think its fine but for prevent issues.)

[TUT] The Simple Guide To Mod Your Diamond

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU DO TOU YOUR PHONE HOWEVER I WILL DO AS MUCH AS I CAN TO HELP YOU FIX IT
GSM ONLY!!! NO CMDA USERS
Note: This TUT was written from my expeience with a DIAM100!!! I do not know if the files included in this TUT are compatible with Diamonds other than the 100
This TUT will cover complete flashing of everything on your Diamond, I wrote this cause it took me 2 hours to get my Diamond hacked so i could reap the benefits of the community:
1. Hard-SPL - Post 1 & 2
2. Rom - Post 3
3. Radio - Post 3
__________________________________________________________
Note: Doing this will Hard Reset your phone, any data not on your 4GB internal will be deleted!!! If you want to make a backup, I recomend you use SPB Backup Free Trial and save the EXE created to your 4GB
__________________________________________________________
What Is Hard-SPL?
Hard SPL in computer terms is the BIOS, it lets you recover your device if you incorectly flash your device. This bootloader was developed by OliNex and comes in to flavours Dev and Signed, i have attached the files at the bottom of this thread. It is essential if you want to put cooked material on your device. if you install this IT WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY, how ever, you can still flash the Stock SPL back should your diamond need repairing.
How Do I Flash It?
If you want to restore the stock SPL, I recomend you make a note of which version you have, this is easy and simple
1. Reset your Diamond
2. Press and hold the Volume Down button on left side of your device, it shold display some numbers and some text, the number should be between 1.23 and 1.37
3. To get back to Winmo, simply press the reset button
With the OliNex SPL's, all you need to do is charge your Diamond to 50% or more, connect via activesync / Device manager on a 32 BIT WINDOWS SYSTEM (XP Only) !!!
Create a new folder with no spaces in it, E.G "C:\\Diamimg_OliNex" , unzip the files you have downloaded from the bottom of the page into this new folder
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then, with your Diamond connected, run "RomUpdateUtility.EXE" and follow the on screen intructions
IF YOU UNPLUG YOUR DIAMOND WHILE THIS APPLOCATION IS RUNNING, YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE!!!
The computer should be displaying a progress bar, it should jump from 0% to 100%
IT WON'T TAKE 10 MINS LIKE IT SAYS IT WILL
A message should appear sayying that your phone has been sucessfully updated
When you see this, Congrats, You have flashed Hard-SPL to your phone
To confirm this, simply repeat the steps you did to check your Stock SPL, It should say, 1.4* OliNex
Flashing back to stock SPL is in the next post

Note: Doing this will Hard Reset your phone, any data not on your 4GB internal will be deleted!!! If you want to make a backup, I recomend you use SPB Backup Free Trial and save the EXE created to your 4GB
__________________________________________________________
To flash back to the Stock SPL, YOU MUST FIRST FLASH THE STOCK ROM AND RADIO, SPL MUST BE FLASHED LAST!!! You will also need the SPL pack which is included in the first post, when we flashed Hard SPL, I mentiod the number of your Stock SPL, if you still have it you can the Stock SPL. This useful because if your supplier is trying to fix it, and bumps into bootloader, it will say "1.40 OliNex", and he will say "This has voided your Warranty". If it says "1.37 HTC" he will say "I will repair it now". Anyway, to replace the Hard SPL, there are two ways. If you have the Un-Signed SPL, you have to use the file "Un Signed SPL Restorer", when you have chosen your Stock SPL, extract the SPL Restorer to a top level of a Local HDD, copy the SPL file into this folder with the other files. Then rename it "RUU_Signed.NBH" without the quotes. Run "RomUpdateUtility.EXE" and follow the on screen intructions

When you see this, Congrats, You have flashed Stock-SPL to your phone and deleted Hard-SPL Un Signed
If you have a signed OliNex SPL, the restoration process is slightly different
The proces is exactly the same except instead of using "Un Signed Hard SPL Restorer", you simply download "Stock Restorer For Signed"

Flashing ROM's
Ok, this is the easy one
There are several methods of flashing ROM's, Using RUU, MTTY and my personal fave, Internal Storage Method, I will cover all of these in this post
Some ROM's I recomend
1. The latest of Winmo products, L3V5Y's 6.5.3 Build 28*** ROM, it's fast, stable and light! Only a 60MB download, which is pretty good. This requires Unsigned Hard SPL
2. GEN Y's 6.1 Manila Rom, this rom is very stable. It hasn't got the 6.5 ROM in it, but it has the latest version of Manila / Touch Flo (The Fancy Interface That Is Installed On The Stock ROM)
1: Internal Storge
This is the easiest, quickest and safest way to flash ROM's, the ROM is a single file (*.NBH), you need to rename it "DIAMIMG.NBH" without quotes
then follow these steps to copy over
1. Plug your phone into your PC
2. Select "Disk Drive"
3. Copy DIAMIMG.NBH to the top level of your phone
When this has completed copying, you must reset and hold Volume down and the Back button, you will see a quick Tri Colour screen and then you will see "Loading" the screen will change and it will say "Press Power Button To Start Update Image", after you press the power button a progress bar will appear at the bottom of the screen, when it has completed, it will say "Update Sucessful", peform a soft reset and enjoy your new ROM!
2: MTTY
MTTY is HTC app that lets you modify the contents of your devices ROM from a command script, you can't actually flash a rom with it, but you can prepare your device with it, if you only flash with internal flash you may get a bad flash, for example a read only file may have copied incorrectly and corrupted the ROM memory. MTTY will format and fix this.
FOR VISTA + WIN 7 6 BIT SYSTEMS, SEE BOTTOM FOR DRIVER INSTALL OTHER WISE YOU MAY DAMAGE YOUR DEVICE!!!
To prepare your Diamond for PC or Storage flashing:
YOU MUST HAVE HARD-SPL ON YOUR DIAMOND
Internal:
After you have downloaded your new ROM, copy it to your Internal Storage and rename DIAMIMG.NBH like you did with the method above. You need to download MTTY which is attached to this post, place your device in bootloader (Reset and Vol Down) Run MTTY after extracting to a top level of a local HDD, a list of options should appear, change it from Com1 to USB, if USB is not on this list, try disabling "Allow USB Connections" in activesync and restart MTTY, when you have selected USB, MTTY will start, just click ok when a option window pops up, after this, wait for a window to pop up and press Enter on your PC keyboard, CMD or USB should appear. I will write the commands then a line below I will write what they do
set 14 0
This tells MTTY to reboot when complete
task 29
MTTY will format your ROM
NOTE: after typing task 8 (Below), very quickly unplug USB and hold down Volume Down and Back to trigger flash
task 8
Reboot Device
PC:
Same Layout As Above
set 14 0
This tells MTTY to reboot when complete
task 29
MTTY will format your ROM
NOTE: after typing task 8 (Below), very quickly unplug USB and hold down Volume Down to trigger Bootloader Mode
task 8
Reboot Device
Plug back into PC, serial should change to USB
Run RUU.exe (Included With Rom) and follow on screen steps (This one will take 10 mins)
MTTY On X64 Bit Systems
Before you do MTTY with a Vista / Win 7 64 Bit system, you must install drivers
First, disable driver signing HERE
Then download and install drivers from HERE
RUU
Note: if the rom is an *.EXE, you dont need to do this as that Rom is an RUU
1. Download your Rom
2. Download the "DiamondCustomRUU.ZIP" from my next post
3. Copy both to the same folder
4. Connect phone via ASync or WMDM
5. Run the Ruu .EXE
6. Follow the steps in my next post

Radio:
This bit is about flashing your radio, people flash their radio to get better reception in the area, if your diamond was sold to you as a TRI Band phone, you can upgrade it to QAUD Band for free
THIS DOES NOT UNLOCK YOUR RADIO FOR USE WITH OTHER SIM CARDS!!!
There are plenty of Radios floating around, one recomended around the forum is 1.00.25.05, this enables QUAD Band, use little power and gets great reception. You can check your radio when your phone is booting, it's the first line of red text. If you have radio version 1.00.25.05, or if you get good signal and good quality voice calls, you don't have to update it
DO NOT TRY AND FLASH A RADIO FROM ANOTHER PHONE!!!
How To Update:
First download a Radio from here
Then download RUU from the bottom of this page
Extract both to the same folder
Run RUU, Check the box and click next
After you have done the things listed in the picture, tick the checkbox and click next
Click Update
The RUU will tell you what version you are going from to what version you are going to
Click Next
DON'T UNPLUG YOUR DIAMOND OR DO ANYTHING ON YOU PC WHILE THE RADIO IS UPDATING
When PC reaches 100% DON'T UNPLUG YOUR DIAMOND, Click finish and wait for your Diamond to reset

How about you shut up and don't read it if you are so bothered by it? This is a forum, and anyone can post whatever they like, as long as it is within the rules.
Good job, Badwolve1!

Great work, this is really usefull for people having trouble getting their Diamond updated and flashed.
When I came here I really needed something like this, because all information was cluttered all around the forum. Now we have it at one place.

And you are even asking for the mods to clean this...
Go think before you post these kind of answers.
Badwolve1 I think it's a good idea to put this in the wiki,
If you don't know how it works I can do it for you with a link to this thread.
This is good work and should be rewarded, we should have these guides for every device!

Having this information all in one thread is really a relieve, tx for your efforts Badwolve!.
Maybe this forum will end up now with a little less ' help....my diamond is bricked' threads, so no waste but gain of space huh

Flashing ROM's
1: Internal Storge
This is the easiest, quickest and safest way to flash ROM's, the ROM is a single file (*.NBH), you need to rename it "DIAMIMG.NBH" without quotes and copy it to the top level of Internal Storage. When this has completed copying, you must reset and hold Volume down and the Back button, you will see a quick Tri Colour screen and then you will see "Loading" the screen will change and it will say "Press Power Button To Start Update Image", after you press the power button a progress bar will appear at the bottom of the screen, when it has completed, it will say "Update Sucessful", peform a soft reset and enjoy your new ROM!

The Loading screen stands there for "forever". I've been waiting for more then 20 mins and the Loading... screen is not changing. What seems to be the problem?

Mtty and windows 7 (x64)

2: MTTY
MTTY is HTC app that lets you modify the contents of your devices ROM from a command script, you can't actually flash a rom with it, but you can prepare your device with it, if you only flash with internal flash you may get a bad flash, for example a read only file may have copied incorrectly and corrupted the ROM memory. MTTY will format and fix this.
XP ONLY!!!

Badwolve - Good to see your consolidated tutorial. Just wanted to share that mtty works directly with Windows 7 (x64) as well now. There are two possible methods for this (tried both and both work):
Eugenia's signed x64 drivers
Disabling/Ignoring driver signing using gpedit

Hmm, seems like your device hasn't been hard spl'd. Can you confirm that you've done so?

My device is HardSPL-ed I've installed 1.30 OliNex, and on the three color screen there is a text that says "1.30 OliNex" so it is spl-ed
And when I try to Flash from PC the custom RUU and phone bar are stuck at 0% and after a wile i got 262 error on ruu. see the picture.

May i ask what rom you are using?
You will probably need Dev Hard SPL as not many Roms are signed by OliNex, i this problem persists ater install of Dev SPL, Try internal flash
Good Luck

hi i had another thread about this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=600587
basicly ive upgraded this unit and now have no gsm ive downloaded the software that i was advised but nothing works says files are corrupt or damaged , sometimes the link doesnt work . i need the factory rom for the orange spv m2000 i think can anybody help me pls
thanks.

since it seems to be the old problem, there was no need to open a new thread, you could have bumped the old one.
also, the answer is still the same. you can find shipped roms at http://xplode.tk
the fact that the wm2003 rom, offered in my tut thread, is corrupt, is aready known. i will fix that some time.

you cannot just download and double click it, i thought that was self explanatory. you need to right click the exe and extract it, in it you will find the ruu and the roms, then you take a custom ruu, like the Chef_Tony RUU from my signature and use that to flash.
also, since you are using windows 7 to flash the device, you need to install another driver and deactivate usb connections in wmdc. use d-two's tutorial on windows 7 flashing here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5456317&postcount=6
or simply use a windows xp computer and follow the tutorial in my signature.
ts ts, just doubleclicking the exe, if it was that easy, there would be no need for a 30 step tutorial

i had extracted the files to a folder .. anyways ive got more picks to show this error . after doing what was said .

done everything the pdf asked with success yet i still cant extract my orange rom as pictures above show.

you didn't do everything from the instructions, you are still using BAupgradeut.exe.
you were supposed to use MAupgradeut_noID.exe.
also, i don't see the TEST MODE watermark on your desktop, which can mean several things:
1. you use windows 7 32 bit and everything went fine
2. you use windows 7 64 bit and removed the watermark already, also fine
3. something went wrong during the installation or you skipped a step.
you should straighten these 2 things out before attempting to continue.
also you should put the device into bootloader mode before flashing, charge the battery to 100% and remove both the sim and sd card, just a general advice, i don't know, if you already did that.
the problem, the ruu gives you, however, is not solvable with any of the tips given above. the extrom from the rom you downloaded, seems to be corrupt. the extrom is the file called ms_.nbf and contains carrier-related cab files like a custom wallpaper, dialer skin and other useless stuff. here are some ways to get rid of that problem:
1. resize the partitions using mtty and flash without the extrom:
1.1 with a full battery and without sim and sd card, put the device into bootloader mode
1.2 disable usb connections in the wmdc
1.3 start mtty (look it up in the wiki or through google)
1.4 select wceusb or usb, 115200-8-1-N-N-N, press ok
1.5 hit enter, so it shows USB>
1.6 type task 28aa
now, the partitions are back to factory defaults, close mtty and disconnect the device, still in bootloader mode
1.7 delete the ms_.nbf or move it to another folder
1.8 in bootloader mode, start the ruu and flash the rom and the radio rom.
method 2 is easier:
2. crc errors appear during corrupt downloads, maybe your connection speed fluctuated, maybe you use a wi-fi connection which swallowed a bit or two, or the file was actually corrupt to begin with, try another mirror, or maybe even another rom, there are many different english wm2003 roms at xplode's archive, your carrier is not important.
2.1 flash it using maupgrade, bootloader mode, without cards...

followed you last instruction to the letter and all is GOOD
thank very much
