noob in need of help here
trying to install hard spl on my T-mobile MDA Compact IV using my Vista machine.
Have it all synced and ready to go.. Gets to the point where it wants to start flashing and a message appears on the phone about going into bootloader.
I click yes (on the phone) and it resets itself.
Then the bar on the computer goes straight to 100% and gives a message saying the flash is complete and ready. This literally takes about 1 second to complete.
The device resets itself and powers up like its the first time...
Help!?
but....
If i hold down the volume down button and power on I get the tri colour screen and;
DIAM200 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.OnliNex
MircroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Vict STAGE_PVT v0x20
Does that mean it is installed?!
Yes. The SPL says Olinex, assuming that is the one you were trying to install?
Yeah, but isn't it a bit strange that it flashed in a matter of seconds?
Had the same prob...
...and solved it by installing net framework on my pc

Thats just the H/SPL and it does take a matter off 2secs if that...!
its your main rom that take serveral mins to complete...!
The message "It will take approximately 10 minutes" was for people flashing the Radio/ROM and whatever else all in one go (For example an official ROM) so yep that's definately normal that it didn't take long at all!

This is indeed correct: SPL is just 512Kb and a standard ROM is more then 100MB, thatswhy it finishes in seconds ...

I have posted this in another thread but noone seems to be able to help or have seen this message.
But I hope some of you can give me some kind of help so I can rescue my Touch Diamond.
I really need your help so I cand send my phone to repair on my warranty.
My Diamond is "almost" dead and when it´s connected to the batterycharger, the phone reboots allt the time, but I can access the Bootloader, and it´s the ONLY way I can have contact with my phone.
Power on won´t start my phone and with the batterycharger the text " Touch Diamond" shows upp and then reboots again and again.
But I can enter the Bootloader.
(The last cooked Rom was a beta from udk which worked satisfied. Downloaded and installed on my Diamond in November.)
I have succeded (?) to update the ROM with the official 1.93 Swedish ROM, made by HTC for the Swedish operator 3 via BOOTLOADER beause it seems to install to 100%.
I have no way to check it...had to belive that the 100% indicator was right.
Then I entered the Bootloader (only way for me to get some access to the phone) and tried to install the stock 1.93 spl found in post 20 in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400411.
Same there: 100% is shown after install, so I thought it should work.
After install, I enter the Bootloader (tricolor) again but the text still says:
Security Unlocked
Diam100 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40 OliNex
MicroP.Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x30
I have also tried to install 1.35 spl in that post with no luck!
Do you know why it won´t show the stock spl I tried to install but shows only the hard.spl 1.40 after I tried to change the spl??
Is there another stock SPL I shall install?
I have Sim unlocked my Diamond couples of month ago with the Diamond Unlocker program.
Is my phone a brick now or can I do something so I can use my warranty?
Hope someone can help me!
Thank you very much!
Anyone?
Leave it on charger for an hour and reboot without charger...
Seems to me your battery is knocked down drained I have this too, it just will not start up.
It will start up with charger, but during startup the power is not enough to keep it going, i believe while booting, the chargeprocess is hold for a few seconds. The still empty battery just knocks down phone and -> reboot.
Method of install SPL is diff, then rom/radio.

I just tried this and it did´nt help.
When connected to the battery charger, the phone indicates it charge for a couple of seconds, then the start/reboot thing occur again.
But the ring around the D-pad did´nt glow anymore like it does when the phone being charge.
However: I let the phone be connected to the battery charger for 5 hours, then tried to start the phone, but the phone did not react when it had no power source.
But when I have the phone connected to the charger, the phone ony starts with "Touch Diamond" on the screen and then reboots.
During the restarts I can access the bootloader.
I also tried a new and fresh battery from my friends Diamond but same problem occured. The phone wont start.

I tried to change back to stock SPL - after I had installed stock Rom -by entering the bootloader (the only way I can access my phone) and started the update for SPL. The indicator showed it was updated to 100%.
But when I look at the tricolor screen it still shows I have Olinex 1.40.
Have I made something wrong when I tried to install stock SPL? The installation indicator during the install looked normal.
Can I have problem to install the stock SPL mentioned in post 1, because I have not a WWW- Rom? I had to reinstall the original ROM for the Swedish operator 3.
Really hope someone can help me out so I don´t need to trash my phone into the garbage.

Here's what you need to do:
Hold down the "Volume Down" button and press reset with the stylus. You will enter the Boot Loader. Now plug in your USB cable connecting it to you PC. On the bottom part of the screen (phone) you'll see USB. Now your PC recognizes the phone.
Start a ROM update through the RUU executable and flash your phone with a different ROM.

I think not. Don't know if you have a lot of apps installed after flashing. What you could do is find a ROM that's UC2/sUC compliant. If you create a folder structure on your internal storage like this:
ROOT > Backup and Restore > CAB > CABi
Put all the cabs you want on your device in the CAB folder and all the cabs you want on internal storage in CABi folder. After flashin and initial customization you will find yourself in User Customization (UC). It will state that it found a CAB folder, choose to install. After this it will state that it found a CABi folder, install as well. This reduces the effort of installing all apps after a hard-reset. As for messages, contacts e.g. I suggest you use PPCPimBackup.
same problem, but when I launch the ruu all is ok, until it starts, it stay at 0%, then I get a message that there was a communication error

Try flashing through bootloader. Press reset with stylus while holding volume down. After you're in the bootloader plugin USB cable and start flashing.

tried and didnt work. made it worst in fact :S
startet update trough bootloader, started, updated to 13% and then I was told the update didnt work with my device (or something similar, in norwegian). tried an older update, same problem... :/
when I now boot the phone I'm directly in bootloader, and with the funny message
DIAM100 65M
SPL-2.03.0000
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x30
Upgrade ROM code error
Please try again
I might have my hand on a brick... but hope not...
edit:
ooh, news, suddenly its updating moore... after 5 tries it allways stopped at 13%, but now it up to 31% and going strong... will update..
edit2: going strong up to 33%....... wow... well its a start and Im going to try some more.
edit3; 7th time the charm it seems... 100% and all I had to do was sit REALLY still. and I actually downgraded from 2.03 to 1.93 or something... should note that on this point I have tried flashing it with the original 2.03 and 1.93 every other time...
edit4; aaaaand we're back at the TOUCH Diamond screen.
edit5; aaaand after a failed flash to wm 6.5 (stopped/didnt start at 0%)... the phone started... This MIGHT be a clue that I should NOT try to get wm6.5 to run... but that wont stop me
I dont know if anyone else will have the same problems, but atleast this was my way to the resolution

Before you try to flash anything other then a stock ROM, I suggest you take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
You need to have Hard-SPL flashed before flashing any custom ROM. My advice would be to use this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=93362&d=1213719705
cool, will try that one. thnx

Did you hold the volume down button while pressing reset? After pressing reset you should keep holding the volume down button until the tri-color bootscreen appears.
Hi guys, looked a lot of threads on this forum but didn't see one similar to my situation!!!
My HTC P3300 Artemis is dead in a very strange way.
-Had it for a week with WM5(factory, german) - had no problem.
-After a week i've installed the WIN6.5WWV from Shady, from this forum - everything was ok the system worked fine (did the USPL unlock before installing)
-The device worked for around a week and yesterday just died while i started a ringtone from my additional flash of 8G SDHC within the device (had no problem with the flash before)
-A note - while on 6.5, the device had different issues with stability, had to restart once in a while.
Description of death :
1. Power button does not start the device(?!)
2. Trying to Hard reset (2 soft buttons + Reset with the stylus) - firstly i get a black screen that asks for confirmation, i press the green button to confirm. I see the text :
Format FAT partition
Format is completed!!
Then a WM logo appears on the screen with a red text in upper left corner:
IPL 1.12.0001
SPL 1.11.0000
And the phone freezes in this state.(?!) - does it mean the SPL is freezing? because before that i saw like 4 lines written with red, now only 2, the last being with SPL.
PS:
-Tried to take out the battery and repeat all steps, tried to put charger to make sure the power is constant (don;t ask, just tried .
-Tried to take off battery, wait for 20 minutes, then repeat
-Tried to take battery, wait for one night and repeat (actually i didn't wait, i just went to bad, it was night already
-Tried the bootloader mode (the Power+Voice+Reset)- it works fine, but don;t know if this helps.
What could be wrong? Is it a hardware issue? Very strange!!
Thanks for your time
Have a good one
maybe u can flash it again in bootloader? that could solve the problem?
if else, it looks like a hardware issue or the phone is bricked.

Yesterday I tried to install from flash like described here - and it was dieing all the time at "Reading from SD" - the screen was becoming bright white and it just shut down. (tried 4 times with same result, only that the moment when the screen went white was different - from 5 seconds to 2-3 minutes)
Right now, when i wanted to reply about this, i said to myself, let me try one more time!!! What do you think???? It worked!!!!
Reading from SD (1-2 minutes)--> Flashing OS (2-3 minutes) and after this it was DONE!!!!
Shuuuush!!! HTC is so weird!!!
Thanks for the help ) i think there are 2 logical ways to go next:
A) Just use it and hope it's gonna be all right in future
B) Install a generic WM not a cooked one. And maybe it's wize to downgrade to WM6.1 or WM6?
What do you recommand?
Have a good one!!
I'm so happy i fixed it!!
well u can safely use a cooked rom, if read a few topics that it can occur sometimes that a cooked rom isnt good flashed the first time. maybe that was the case with your phone, who knows
SOS!!! im not computer specialist so i made a mistake.... I used this ROM
Benko's Ultra Lite & Clean Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM , the full and prime version... I didnt make any hspl spl etc... Since then, Im not able to put our phone's old Rom because when it is syncrhonised and im trying to install the Rom, my phone disconects and it shows a Red, green blue, whit picture with this:
DIAM100 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0X32
.....HELP MEEEE!!! :'(

restart the diamond from the red button under the stylus and hold the volume down.
the diamond will rise again with a screen with colored stripes, connect the USB cable and flash the rom
im trying to do it and it just goes on black screen, disconnects and then nothing..........................
Okay, download an official HTC rom for your device in the language it came with (look up wiki pages for diamond, you'll find them there).
Hook up your phone to your computer and since it is already in bootloader (the red/green/blue screen) just double click the file you just downloaded and follow the instructions on the screen.
Don't worry...your phone will be fine.
btw...your spl is 1.40.OliNex......that looks like unlocked to me (hardSPL)
reay? well i dont know... i bought from someone.... i'll let you know of how it goes.. thanks a lot!!!!!!
May i ask you another silly wuestion? How do I fsh a rom? because in all cases, the phone must be synchronised with the pc.. oh and my phone says"serial" in the white box..

The Tri Color screen is the bootloader. When connected to the computer it should say "USB" at the bottom. Otherwise it says "Serial".
EDIT: What version is your SPL? The unlocked version is 85.
