Hi Guys,
I got myself a htc diamond touch but it's in german and somehow i want to change it to english.I downloaded HardSPL from the forum and some roms. When i run HardSPL it copies some files to root of the phone then i run the exe file for rom update.Everything seems just fine but when i turn on the phone back just after update, there is no change, it is still in german!!!
could you please help me!
Thanx

hi guys can anyone help? i have downloaded the german rom and want to update it to my uk orbit but found all the setup instructions are in german. can anyone post a translation or better still a bullet pointed how to guide how to install from fresh (i have an unlocked orbit) and what to check or look out for etc etc. also is the rom fully ok or are there bugs still?
its very basic - check the marks on the boxes so you can proceed to the next screens
*tip*
Abbrechen = Cancel
Weiter = Next

Sorry, but I think it doesn't make sense to You, to update to a German rom version, if You're not able to understand the german setup instruction, cause in that version all menus and help functions are in German too.
I agree with kinski
But to answer all your question, i haven't found any bugs in this ROM, for me its just perfect!
i thought that after upgrading to the german rom you could select language to english thus bieng able to use it on a uk orbit? or am i wrong

A bit more complicated than that. Read this thread and you will know exactly what to do, it may seem long, but anyone on this board will tell you it is 100% worth it to read....

Then your phone is one in a million because everyone else managed to either upgrade or break thier phone with these upgrades. Did you make sure your phone was CID Unlocked first?
phone is unlocked with origional wm5 software running.
1 downloaded the german wm6 update rom form german 02 site http://www.o2online.de/nw/support/do...bit/index.html
2 using winrar i extracted the german rom
3 downloaded bepe's ART WWE WM6 and renamed the artemis_wm6_bepe_WWE.nbh file TO RUU_signed.nbh
4 put that fule into the german rom update folder writing over the old one
5 started orbit in booteloader both buttons and reset pressed once
6 ran ROMupdateUtility.exe from the german update folder i had extracted earlier
7 started updating but noticed when i the pc started loading the files and the phone showed a status bar that when getting to 3% would stop and reboot the phone back to origional wm5. and on the pc it would say error 270 (i think) update failure ?
did everything as i should but no joy.

Run USPL unlock cid ( SPL 1.11 ) by Pof
And try again..!
exactly, do a search on CID unlock - a whole new level of unlocking that it does not sound like you are familiar with. Do this and your problems will go away.
Hello and good day to you all.
I have a bit of a problem and i was wondering is someone could help.
Recently flashed my phone using schaaps 3.54 also did the hard spl now says
ipl 1.04
spl 2.10.olipro
Very happy with the outcome but the camera stopped working (Twice this has happened now on second phone), so i need to send the phone back to orange. Everytime i try to go back to the orginal rom (downloaded from the orange website), the phone goes into bootloader and then then nothing PC says it has lost connection with the phone.
Guess what im asking is how do i put the original rom back on, or cant I. have searched the forum but either im blind or i didnt use the correct search words. Any help would be very greatly recieved.
Thank you
Andy

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
i put the 2 files sspl and jump into my Diamond then i run sspl from my diamond and my phone resets.

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

Hello all . Here's my problem. After all the tutorials ive been through nothing helped me. I have an HTC Diamond which i bought from Australia ( means its HTC DIAMOND TELSTRA ROM or something) and I have no idea how to put another Rom . Ive tries HardSPL and everything else , and every time I finish hardSpl and start putting a new rom it stacks at 0% . Yes ive tried a lot of programs even tried to rebuild the rom file and still nothing. What I need to do is remove the stock telstra rom and put another one , custom rom
Any help would be much appreciated!
Anyone can help me out????
Think you used a signed hard spl
You must use a Unsigned hard spl
Can you be more specific pls?
Read this Topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400950
And install the Unsigned Hard SPL Diamond Olinex
Download link is in the second topic
And retry to flash a rom
Hello everyone,
I have an HTC Touch Diamond.
ROM version 1.37.404.3 NLD (original version)
Radio version 1.00.25.03
Also, its the GSM version
I started this weekend searching for ways of how to upgrade my HTC touch diamond's OS to WM 6.5. I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
I downloaded every program I needed. I downloaded a radio version i liked (1.00.25.05.rar) and a ROM I liked (Energy.DIAMOND.28244.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Dec.21.7Z). To update the radio, i dl'd the Custom RUU as indicated in the guide.
I upgraded my phone to the HardSPL as indicated in the guide. when everything was done, I tried to update my radio version as indicated. I placed the RUU in a seperate folder, and i placed the radio version in the same folder. My phone was synced and ready to be updated. I started the RUU. it asked me if I understand the risks, i continued. It asked me if my phone was ready, I continued. then it tried to read the files in the folder, but it said it didn't recognize them. I checked the folder and not only the radio was in it, but also: enter bootloader, ErrorBattery.fig, ErrorUSB.fig, ModelID.fig, rapitool, RomUpdateutility(the one i used to update my HardSPL, and wich I have deleted already), RUUGetinfo and RUUresource.dll.
So I retried and the same error occured. Then i tried to run RUU, and before clicking next, I removed all the files from the folder, except the radio. i click next and next, and instead of the wrong file error, it says my device isn't connected. I do not understand this as it was synced, and I could even move files to and from my device.
I retried several times with and without removing the files from the folder. NO SUCCES. The same result with my Energy rom
Please help me because I searched google and this site for people with the same problem, but I couldn't (and can't) find any. I have no idea, am I doing something wrondg here? Is it because the radio version is .rar? Do i need to dl a .rar program? like 7Zip? Or does the radio need to be a .nbh file
Also, I entered bootloader on my device, and it says my HardSPL is
SPL-1.40.OliNex . This is the HardSPL as indicated in the guide.
P.S: is the site modmydiamond.com not there anymore or something? Or is it my computer.
PPS: How's my english? I'm dutch and i'm doing Cambridge English at my school. If I do something wrong, pm me
PPPS: I am a beginner on this kind of computing. How does Rom work exactly?
EDIT: if this is on the wrong forum, where exactly do I have to place this?
well, you did everything nicely to flash the HSPL. but you seem to have missed out on mtty.
try mtty and we will begin again. (btw search for mtty in the Diamond ROM development thread. you cant miss it as it has been stickied)
as for your english...i didnt know you were dutch until i read the last line where you said u are dutch
hehe...so ur english is very good
DEAD NOW?
how exactly can i flash it?
its working
