Phone won't boot up - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

I flashed Hard SPL 1.34 then upgraded the radio to 25.05 then put on Bepe's 0.95 ROM
It worked for a while, then started to crash and needed to press the reset button to boot it up.
Now it won't move from the Touch Diamond startup screen when I boot it up, then turns off. Can't hard reset, and can't enter bootloader.
Any ideas? I just suddenly did this, also, it doesn't have the original vendor ROM on it so if I send it back, what's the chances of them getting into it and then saying a big FO because I messed with it?

What happens when you try to enter bootloader mode? Have you tried removing the battery for a while?

bootloader is volume down and reset yes?

Yes, korrect

diddly squat, not even any ROM id's coming up on boot screen. I think it's bricked

Hard reset is volume down + enter (round key) and red reset button. Keep down the first two until you see the reset screen

Can you be a little more descriptive? What exactly happens? Does the phone reset at all?
Did you hold volume down for a few seconds? Just pressing it while you hit the reset button is not enough. You need to hold it down until the tri-color bootloader appears. That's usually around 5 seconds.
Edit:
Clarification: You press volume down and hold it. Then you shortly push down the reset button with the stylus, while still holding the volume down button. You can release the volume down button after the tri-color screen appears. (or after 10 seconds if it's really not coming up)
Should it come up, you can use the chance to flash another ROM. If that's giving you trouble, see the link in my signature.

Ok, here's what happens
If I press the power button, it vibrates, Touch Diamond comes up, no ROM info, stays for a few seconds, disappears, phone is then off again.
Holding volume down, pressing reset button, nothing happens, phone doesn't power on, volume down held for 10 seconds, nothing happens
Holding volume down and action button, then pressing reset button, again nothing happens at all.
I successfully hard resetted the phone with the official ROM, but since installing Bepe's 0.95 I hadn't attempted a hard reset, but I had rebooted the phone successfully before this problem occured

Okay, in the off state the reset button will not function.
What you could try is turning it on and immediately afterwards follow the bootloder-procedure.
Also I did a quick search. The following threads might or might not be related and help you (I didn't read them, too late for me tonight):

I realize they're for different phones, but that might not make such a big difference in this case...

also, can you confirm that you successfully flashed hard-spl before this? as in, you manually went to bootloader and saw that it had changed to hard spl?

Try this....
might seem stupid but your phone is also acting as it would with a 99% flat battery........phone just starts then dies.......
Stupid question......put it on charge for a couple hours...you never know....it might be the problem you have

Well I came to start it up this morning after leaving it on a shelf all night with distain and it booted up fine.
So I'm going to flash the official ROM, and other stuff back to factory and send it back. there's obviously something wrong with it somewhere.
Thanks for all the help guys, let's hope my next diamond is a bit more well behaved.

SD Boot Loader Problem X51v

I have an X51v, US English version with A12. I can't seem to activate the SD Boot Loader no matter how I try. I have:
- pressed wireless, waited 1 second, pressed power, waited a couple seconds, then tapped reset and held the first two, and all that comes up is the hard reset screen.
- Tried hard resetting and then the above.
- Tried holding the reset longer
- Tried pressing wireless and power simultaneously
- Tried with the SD in and without
- Tried in the cradle and out
- Yes, the hold switch was in the correct position
I just want to try WM6! Anything I'm missing? I've ready every post on all the forums, and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks!

Press wireless and power at the same time.
Then press the reset button. Keep the wireless and power held down until you see the SD Boot Loader.
Thanks, how long do I hold them down?
Will I see the hard reset screen first and then the boot loader after? I held them down for 30+ seconds after the hard reset screen came up and nothing. Maybe there's something wrong with mine.
Thanks!

Try this -
Hold down all three for a count to 10 (or so) and before you see anything, release the reset button. See if that works for you.
Nope, same thing, hard reset screen... mine must be broken somehow. The wireless button does work, when its on. Does the device need to be turned on, in the cradle, or anything special? I've tried it several ways.
I might try it on a friends X51v to see how it works on his.
Thanks
Fixed my problem though

What happens if you hold down the volume button while booting your device?

its not really reacting with any button once it get stucked to HTC logo
yea, to boot into the bootloader.
If you hold down the "volume button down" while booting your device it must show the colored screen within a second. Just hold down the "volume down" while pressing the reset button on the back. Keep holding the "volume down" till you see the colored screen.
tell me how please...i will have to remove the battery and put it back in...then it will still charge.....anyway...the only way i can start there is to press the power button and it will start up....but it will get stuck in HTC logo....when do i start going to bootloader in there....pls help...

If that still does not work the flash a new ROM - while connected via bootloader ( only way )

Remove the battery, place the battery, hold down the "volume down" button, start your device ( while still holding the "volume down" button ).
Try a hard reset first as mentioned above:
Hold down the "volume down" button + the round button on the front, then reset your device while still holding those two buttons.

Download a ROM and flash it while the device is still in that mode.

1. restart the phone (with the pen in the small red button at the pen hole)
2. immediately after you have restarted, hold down the volume down button.
3. now you should be in three color bootloadermode.
4. connect your usb cable (after that you will see USB at the white color part)
5. start your custom ruu to flash your new rom.
good luck
edit..
aaaa u solved it while i was writting
great.
To hard reset -
reset your device with the stylus the before anything appears on the screen hold down the Vol down key and the centre button - follow the instructions - but don't use the volume down option unless you want to format you internal memory too.
have you tried to reflash rom? another rom possibly?
trying to do hard reset again...and this time it applies....dont know why it's not reacting awhile ago....

HELP....cannot turn on my mobile after flashed a new rom (Energy Rom) into my Diamond

I flashed a new rom (Energy Rom) into my Diamond before.
After power on.......
just "TOUCH DIAMOND" on the screen
and after few seconds....
"R 1.08.25.20
G 52.44.25.24U
D 2nergy ROM" (in red colour)
appear on the right bottom screen
then stop...
It cannot run window mobile6.5 now.........how can I do???
I cannot connect to PC .......
Have you tried to manually open the bootloader, connect it to PC and than flash another rom ? (maybe the original one will help)
i had the same problem with my pro. but my pro somehow fixed itself, i just kept pulling the battery out and wait a minute then put the battery back in and turn it on then like the 12th time it loaded up very slowly so i ran to my computer and loaded another rom. but i'm sure you tried that.
have you tried a hard reset, it's differnt from each carrier i think but it's something like hold the phone upside down and press the volume down button and then put your stylus in the reset button, idk if it will work but what can it hurt. but just rememebr there is a couple differnt ways of doing it and i think it's by the carrier.
Sorry to hear that..
I would recommend a hard reset first. Do that by reseting your phone using your stylus then immediately hold the volume down button and the enter button (the round center button on your dpad).
Keep holding them until you are prompted to hard reset. Follow the instructions. After the hard reset, if your phone still doesn't boot enter bootloader manually by reseting uing the stylus and hold down the volume down and the button with the backward arrow on your dpad. Keep holding until the phone enters bootloader. Connect your phone using USB to your computer and flash a new ROM. If no ROM works, the original should work.
Hope this helps. Good Luck.
I have same problem and hard reset helps to fix that...I recomend after that to change energy rom because it can happens again...

ATT TILT 2 owned since released stuck in Boot Screen

I have a Stock TILT 2 (TP 2) never flashed running basic programs Mobile Shell never had any issues with it, haven't installed new software in a few weeks , but I soft resetted it this morning and it keeps getting stuck in the boot screen. when first turned on it will run through boot screen then load screen for a millisecond then back to boot screen and never advances again , I've tried battery out sim card out Sd card out everything, even tried hard reset , but wont allow me to hard reset with front buttons and power, is there another way to hard reset , is it possible my phone just bricked for no reason ? thanks for any help ?
have you tried to do a hard reset via the pc? the original rom is on the htc website so you can try useing the exe file there. there is also an updated rom you can try to flash there. hope that helps
You might try sending it to the bootloader screen and reflashing. I don't know if it will work, but I thought it might be worth the effort.
I did notice that HTC removed the original shipped ROM for the Tilt2. I'm sure it is floating around here somewhere. If not, I have it and can send it to you when I get home.
Thanks I have original rom and just released wont work.
dod you see anythign on teh screen? if you do, then hard reset may fix it.
Power off your phone (or take teh battery out). Then press and hold teh call and hang up button while press teh power button. it will enter the hard reset mode. (remember hard reset will erase all the info on the phone and rever tot the stock setting).

wow, thank god i dl'd it when i dl'd the updated rom... and they still have the image of the old rom right beside it... lol
as for op, you can try to enter the bootloader with the following steps
Remove the back cover from the phone.
Hold the Volume Down button.
Use the stylus to press the reset hole.
Or if the device was powered off, press the power button whilst holding down the Volume Down button.
and try to flash from there
hope that helps again

[Q] sync-problem on 3.4.2-117 UK Froyo

I upgraded from 2.51.1 to 3.4.2-117, and the phone lags, seems to me that it is because of the google sync. Someone posted the very same problem and said that factory reset solved his problem.
My problem is that the phone does not do factory reset, in Privacy I press the erase button and nothing happens.
I tried to boot into recovery, but I can't get into it. The droid comes up but upon touching the lower right corner nothing happens.
When i try to boot with vol up and down same time, the phone boots into safe mode.
How shall I get into recovery so I could do a wipe? The phone is basically unuseable now because of the lags and freezes
Hey mate! Don't give up. When you see the droid in the center of the lcd just push vol+ and vol- at once. You'll get into recovery mode. )))
thx dude, i figured it out "accidentaly"
Everyone was writing on the net that the recovery boot is up and down the same time instead of the old method of power & volume -.
So, when I got to the droid, started to push every possible button in every possible variation and I got in.
since then I learned that the vol up and down is after power & vol -, not instead.
