can't seem to get this upgrade to work. the updater stops at about 28 percent for me with an error (286? i think) and after that i'm stuck in bootloader. Every time after that, the updater wont even start.. (a different error).
i can flash successfully a cooked ROM, but can't get the official one to work. Could it be a conflict with Des' crash-proof SPL? That's the only thing i can think of at this point..
To me said invalid device id, and got stuck on the boot loader
try back to any old offical ROM
and then copy SSPL to PDA and run it on PDA
when bootloader appear, run WM6 offical updater
I got same problem too and get fix
good luck
update: since i managed to flash PDAVIET's rom, i thought i'd just try going back to Olipro's hard-spl and see what happens.. So i flashed it, entered bootloader and ran the WM6 update again, and SUCCESS!!
very strange though.. anyone have some thoughts as to why it wouldn't work under Des', or if this is just coincidence?
It installs a new bootloader that can't be hacked by the previous hacks I think.... I'm stuck in it too...
SPL-3.03.0000

Hi racerx,
I've encountered the same problem as your, stuck at 28% ERROR [286] while flashing, and couldn't go over it even after recovery process following the instruction.
Could you please explain a bit more details about how to go back to Olipro's hard-spl and enter into bootloader?
Thanks, eager to flash the new ROM...
Well I was able to get out of it by running Pof's CID RUU Unlocker, however, it errors after 7%, and resets. It gets past the bootloader, however, it hardreset the phone...eh.
IT happened to me too - Update Error.
So should i go back to Official WM5 then update to WM6 (i had AX3L installed before and i just had to reflash back to AX3L coz of the error from WM6).
Kinda scared me.....LoL
well, to start with i had Des' Crash-Proof SPL on my phone... so after the updater hung at 28%, i remained in Des' bootloader. I then ran the RUU for pdaviet's ROM, which flashed successfully. After that was on and my trinity was up and running, i flashed Olipro's hard-spl. Then manually put it in bootloader again, and flashed the official ROM.
Let me say this, though. At this point, i think you should be content to get your device out of bootloader mode. This Dopod WM6 doesn't have so much to be desired in it compared to cooked ROM's on this forum, plus your bootloader will be stuck at version 3.xxxx which i don't know if anyone is sure how to deal with yet. I'm regretting flashing mine to official version. Should have waited for a chef to pack it up for me.
what does your bootloader say?
You need to actually have a device that this release is supported by. It flashes a new SPL but you can flash Olipros HARD SPL 1.20 straight over that once WM6 has flashed.
It replaces any HARD SPL before flashing, probably to ensure only official devices get this update. Those having issues are probably out of this.
The official rom is fine, not as finished or customised as some chef ones, but good none the less. Also, the new 3.0??? SPL is no issue at all and easily removed once flashed.
yeah saw your post on the other thread.. thanks for the tip! talk about a stressful morning haha..
i was waiting for this ROM cause my activesync has mysteriously stopped working for a couple of weeks. so i was going to flash and take it to the service center. The miracle of it, was after my device hung and i reflashed pdaviet's rom, my activesync mysteriously works now even though i reflashed a million times before trying to get it going haha..
new spl is needed for flashing new radio rom with cid locked device.
So that's why RUU reflashes SPL at first.
U could simply reflash HArd spl back by using sspl
mUn, when can we expect your much anticipated "Indigo" rom using this offical WM6 base??
Genius! thanks for the tip mun...
all i can say is one word....
INDIGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
I also got Invalid vendor ID when I tried to flash for the first time. But it flashed just fine after I put it into bootloader mode. Give it a try..
Flashed my mine in a breeze from LSVW version 27/05/07.

AT&T(aka deathstart) will be releasing their latest WM6 in a few weeks(I am suspecting but don't know anything for sure). My problem is that I have loaded Hard SPL v7 -> OliPro 2.10. I am wanting to remove my custom ROM and install "the" factory ROM. But I can't do this with Oli installed.
So how to remove so I can return my phone back to the factory ROM. I am wanting to sell before it loses the rest of its value as well.
Found numerous links to install but can't find anything to uninstall.
Any info/advice will be much appreciated.

Down Grading WM6 to WM5
This topic is "well covered" in Mr. Vanx's guide....... do a google search on "mr vanx" go the the site & look around...... I've done it successfully a number of times...... downgrading SPL7 is "one of the steps"......
Good Luck,

This was the site that I used to walk me through the install. Unfortunately I have been all through this site and haven't been able to find "downgrading" documentation. Didn't see a search button. Lots of good info though.

Are you sure that original retail ROM cannot be flashed if you have OliPro 2.10? Before you flashed custom ROM on your "virgin" device, you had to install Olipro 2.10, right? Then you flashed the custom ROM. So the reverse procedure should work as well. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I think this was the right question to ask. I have not had RUU install problems before..but just to make sure, I tried to run RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3_1_.57.502.1_6275_1.48.00.00_108-ATT-MR3_Ship to put my phone back to the "current" Cingy version(prep for WM6 by Cingy). So when I ran the RUU ran and I got to the point where the software was attempting to check out the info on the PDA. I got the 206 connection error. I tried to follow the troubleshooting of the readme.doc. It basically said to check your connections, reboot your computer, PDA, etc...I know the USB connection works as it connects to my Vista WMDC just fine.
So, just now as a last resort, I booted to the Bootloader screen and reconnected. Vista recognized and loaded a "new" driver(why I don't know). I ran the RUU and guess what??...ROM is now loading. All appears well and no need to downgrade the SPL.
This is probably a documented feature of RUUing w/in Vista somewhere. If not, then perhaps it can be added to some Upgrading Wiki.
Thanks for everything.

So I wouldn't have to break down the exe into the nbh files and do it all separately like in Mr.Vanx's guide? That would be awesome if I could just flash the original exe file, and then just downgrade the IPL.
Iv'e flashed the ATT ROM on the HardSPL with zero issues. Dozens of times.
Hello, just to start I will say that I'm completely new to PDAs, because I got my HTC TyTN a few days ago. So I had WM5 and I installed WM6 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320829
But then I saw the Schap's WM6 Pro 4.20 Roms, which had TouchFLO installed and tried to install the full version, when it asked for Bootloader version I ticked the SP 2.02/2.10 (or whatever it was), because it was the closest to my Bootloader version - 2.03 (if I'm not mistaken). It started installing but after few seconds it displayed me some error. I don't remember what was the error, I only remember that it said that something was corrupted. So I would really appreciate any help installing Schap's WM6.
P.S As I said i'm newbie with PDAs, so please if you try to expain what should I do make it a bit more .... simple .
I'd suggest using the detect spl option when you try flashing. If you still get an error I would highly recommend posting the details so you can get the correct help.
There are several ways to get in touch with a new rom.
Please read the wiki, there should be everything explained.

If nothing works there is only one solution for me, yet.
Then I have to change manually to bootloader mode and flash the original latest provider rom. After this step I am able to flash a rom of my choice again. regards
"Error, Unknown version! You should pick safe SSPL" is the error that i get when I try the Autodetect. Should I try using safe SSPL or ... ?
I also forgot to mention that I'm using Windows Vista. I heard that there were some problems updating ROMs using the Windows Mobile Device Center, so perhaps this is the problem ?
To start with I strongly recomend you read the WIKI.
As first base you should install HARD SPL (again read the WIKI).
After you'll have hard spl on yor TyTN you should use autodetect.
(Make sure you are fully connected in Windows Mobile Device Center befor any of the above)
I've installed HardSPL guided by http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=27
but I still get the same error. I also changed the WMDC drivers with those from AS again beign guided from the above link. Should I tick the SPL-2.02/2.10/2.30 New Bootloader or what should I do ?
Flash using an SD card.
YES pick Safe SSPL, it will run through and be fine. Sometimes that happens.
Flash a stock WM5 ROM. Get into windows. Download HARD-SPL (2.10). Use the force SPPL option while activesynced (GUEST) to flash the BOOTLOADER. Get back into windows, and use the same procedure for the OS ROM. Use force SSPL while activecyned..
Hello i have a HTC orange Touch Diamond and i want to update the ROM as it is terrible. I am not that technical. can someone please explain what i need to do from scratch.
Thank you
I suggest your search the forum...
hello newbie
yes use the search button...it works really well
You first need to flash your diamond with one of the hard spl on this site and after you've done that you can take your pick from any of the roms on here
sorry guys i did look just didnt understand much. I am trying to use Hard SPL just cant get it to work.
same here
I have an orange htc Diamond and would really apreciate which files wouldwork. Everything I have tried stay's at Zero and ends up in an error.
Any help would be greatly ppreciated
root directory
to use hard spl i have to put a file in the root directory! but what is the root directory?
Hi James, your failing at 0% most likely because the SPL your using will not allow unsigned ROM's. Look for another SPL, one with developer edition in the title is good and works quite well for me.
I have an Orange also, the first thing to do is install the SPL then flash the radio (.05 is good) then get a new ROM!
Hope this helps
i think i broke my phone!!!!!
lol

You need to do the following
1. Download the Unsigned HardSPL 1.24 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408621 and extract to a folder on your PC. Make sure you have Active sync installed and setup with your Diamond. Run the Updater in the 1.24 folder. Once the Phone reboots reconnect with active sync.
2. Download any of the ROMS on here and run the ROM to flash the phone.
Thats it !!!!!

Hard SPL won't work
Hello,
From what I've read on the forum and also on www.modmydiamond.info, I gather I need to go through the Hard SPL step before installing any ROM.
However, after trying 2 different SPLs (hard_spl.120 and diamond_hspl_1.24) it still doesn't work.
I'm stuck at 0%.
Thanks

So as you can figure out from the thread title I have a problem flashing my htc diamond.
I have installed a HardSPL version 1.30 OliNex, I can confirm that becouse on the three color screen there is a text saying "1.30 OliNex".
I still have the original ROM that comes with the phone when I bought it, so this meant to be my first flashing.
I want to flash the phone with this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593678 it is a WM 6.5 based ROM.
Because in the ROM package there wasn't a ROMUpdateUtility.exe I used it from other ROM package.
Connected via ActiveSync and followed the wizard. The phone reset and there came a gray screen with a progress bar. Now both progress bars on the phone and on the PC screen remain 0% and after a wile RUU finished with 262 ERROR Connection error, see the attached picture.
After that I tried to flash it from Internal Storage. A followed the steps according the procedure, and after the three colored screen it came the gray screen with "Loading..." message. I waited for almost 30 minutes and nothing happened.
What seems to be the problem?
I assumed about firewall disabling the connection. But I turned off the firewall and again the same story.
Then somewhere I found that there is incompatibility with the RUU and HardSPL version, but tried to flash with the same RUU that I used when I was installing HardSPL.
Then I tough that the problem is about flashing unsigned ROM on a signed HSPL, but it is not that the ROM is signed.
I am afraid to use MTTY so I don't brick my phone, because this is my first time flashing a Diamond.
I'm confused What seems to be the problem?
Any help can be welcomed.
Could this be indication of a hardware problem? When waiting for the "Loading..." message disappear the back cover warms a little.
Thanks.
1. Did you use the RUU from my thread?
2. NEVER USE AN H-SPL RUU TO FLASH ANYTHING OTHER THAN H-SPL!
3. is this a CMDA phone. IE, what network are you on?
Well no I didn't use the RUU from your thread, I've used a RUU from other ROM package.
This is not a CDMA phone I'm on T-Mobile Macedonia network. And the phone looks like this
On other Macedonian forum they told me it is a hardware problem. Can this be true?
So what do you think about my problem?

EDIT: I did tried the RUU you recommended in your thread but it's the same.
I think it is in the PDA.
Configure active sync, and uncheck "allow usb connection" and try again.
For updating from internal storage you must have to copy the rom to the root of internal storage with a special name, ""diamimg.nbh"
Hmmm..
What he said... and...
Should have used one of the earlier SPLs. you only need to use the latest one if you are having problems with the older versions. I have the same diamond and used an early SPL.
Upgrade the radio rom first and go with a rom that's version 6.1 not 6.5 as most 6.5 roms now pack the Sense application.. (IMO Non-Sense, Senseless (Not enought ram or responsiveness))
Old roms here

Give olinex some cash for his Diamond Unlocker as this is the surefire way to fix it.

The connection between PC and PDA is made, because as I said there is a progress bar on the phone screen too.

As I understand you, you are saying to install later version of Hard SPL right?
So to install a new version of Hard SPL I just need to do the same procedure as the first time, or I have to uninstall the previous one?
And please help me which version of Hard SPL is safest to install? I'm afraid of the developer versions or maybe they aren't so scary
Are you a 100% positive it is the HardSPL?

Presuming from your post, you are using a signed Olinex SPL, i doubt that the rom has been signed be OliNex, the only difference with Dev is you can flash any Rom, flash the Dev one from my thread, nothing to be afraid of
Good Luck

What are the steps of installing new SPL?
Do I just need to do the same procedure as the first time, or I have to uninstall the previous one(somehow)?
UPDATE: I did it, I successfully flashed my Diamond PDA! It seams that the problem was in the SPL I installed 1.40 OliNex Unsigned and it flashed like a charm. Thanks guys for the help. Now this thread can be closed, or do I have to close it myself.
Great!
Glad it all worked out
