Here is a list of downloadable and flashable ROMs (providing you have Diamond Hard-SPL).
You may also post links to a ROM that you wish to have signed here.
Currently uploading a couple of ROMs as we speak, will be linked here within the next hour and a half (crap upload)
DIAM140 Users: Please note that stock ROMs are currently not fully compatible with your device and therefore are not recommended for flashing unless you backup your current ROM first.
DIAM300 Users: We need someone to test these ROMs, so any guinea pigs please test but first backup current ROM.
Everyone else: have fun!

Flashing WWE ROM did not succeed !!!
I managed to flast HardSPL 1.30 OliNex.
I have originally a Dutch ROM.
Now I try to flash the following RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.26.25.09_0.93.25.26_Ship WWE ROM but it does not go further dan 0 %.
What can be the reason?
I tried a few times but everytime the same result
I had the same problem, Its because the rom must be signed with the certificate same as used for hardspl, If you use this rom witch they signed with the same srt it will work,

Do you not bother to read or are you just stupid?
download one of the two linked in the FIRST POST of THIS THREAD.
you'll find that one of those two is the one you're trying to flash.
more will be posted as they're made public, but so far, we've signed the only OSs available for Diamond.
@ diamond section: thanks for closing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397566
Anyway, Ive got a multi-language Diamond, so I dont need to look spanish rom again thanks
Strange, I managed to install this ROM without Hard-SPL. I did try to install hard-spl, screen went black like it's supposed to, but then I didn't know what to do and did a soft reset.
Then I ran the Europe ROM update downloaded from first-post in this thread. It installed beautifully, I got congratulated, and my phone is a lot faster (thanks for that!)
My boot screen doesn't say Olinex, so apparently hardspl isn't installed.
How is this possible? And does it have any consequences for my phone?
Obviously you have already done hard-spl but you don't know that...
In boot screen it doesn't say Olinex anywhere, but you will see that if you put your device in bootloader mode.
If badflower is the one i think he is, then he doesn't have the Olinex bootloader screen!! He has the original bootloader.
Have sign requests for 1.37.707.1 and 1.37.405.1 been made yet?
Waiting for 1.37 signed ? when ????
Soon... it's up to Olipro and cmonex. Be patient.

Yeah in a few days or so there will be a rollback SPL
stock SPLs - only for warranty reasons
here's the stock SPLs... 1.23, 1.34, 1.37, 1.93.
EDIT: I uploaded 1.35 later because people couldn't understand there was no real difference between 1.34 and 1.35. so it is now in the second attachment in this post.
new: also uploaded 1.93 now.
if you have unsigned hardspl, you'll need to use the SSPL package (i.e. the same package that is posted in HardSPL thread to flash the hardspl), just replace the NBH file with one of these stock SPLs.
if you have signed hardspl, just go ahead and flash with normal RUU process (no overwrite protection in that one, as it is already only accepting htchackers signed files, there was no need for that).
also,
STEP BY STEP HOW TO RETURN TO STOCK SPL - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!
0. be sure to first restore stock OS, and stock radio. stock SPL is always to be done last!!
1. download the stock spl package from this post (pick one of the attachments) in this thread.
2. also download the RUU-SSPL-withoutNBH.zip from the attachments in this post.
3. pick the SPL you want to reflash to (ONLY FOR WARRANTY REASONS), it's a .NBH file, put the NBH in the extracted RUU-SSPL-withoutNBH package.
4. run the RUU (or if needed, run SSPL-Manual.exe manually, then run RUU when it goes to black screen), it goes to 100%, reboots, done.
+5. to verify, volume down + reset, see version number on tricolour screen.
that's it.
Those who have troubles with other HardSPL versions can give the attached 1.23 (shipped), 1.24 (mfg), 1.34 (shipped) HardSPLs a try.
To flash any of these, first establish an activesync connection via usb. Then run diamond-sspl.bat and confirm execution on touchscreen. The screen will turn black. Now run DiamondCustomRUU from either the HardSPL-1.23, HardSPL-1.24 or HardSPL-1.34 folder.
I have tested these versions on my diamond and did not have any issues with them. I prefer 1.24 because it is a mfg spl. A mfg spl includes additional commands for the manufacturer (htc) to test a device as opposed to the shipped spl which is installed on stock devices.
A particular spl may fix bugs, may be needed to support new hardware (e.g. lcd or touchscreen) or is required to optimally support a particular version of the OS and/or radio. Only try another spl if you have issues with your currently installed one. If you have no issues then don't flash another spl.
Further questions about spl are answered here

perhaps my memory is bad, but the MFG we based Hard-SPL on is the same version as this or newer possibly, I'll find out later.

Hi man, happy to see you here ( i still owe you from radio from hell!!!)
i have a noob question: whats the difference between this hardspl and Olinex version? and do i hjave to change it?( i already have olinex developers edition)
Thanks jocky bro..!
It works just fine
i installed 1.24... it works although i can't see anything special.
@JockyW2001
Can this HSPL be overwritten for warranty returns with original SPL or it also must be signed by your special certificate first? I am referring to OliNex-unsigned "back-to-original-SPL" method.

You can flash any signed spl with this sspl. Which signature is used doesn't matter: self-signed, olinex, or htc it doesn't make a difference.
works thank you

thank you for this...you are a star!

Sorry for all questions at once but i am really confused.
BTW i have olinex 1.40 dev edition.
Mfg spl version includes additional commands for the manufacturer (htc) to test a device as opposed to the shipped spl which is installed on stock devices.
A particular spl may fix bugs, may be needed to support new hardware (e.g. lcd or touchscreen) or is required to optimally support a particular version of the OS and/or radio. Only try another spl if you have issues with your currently installed one. If you have no issues then don't flash another spl.

Thanks for the quick answer. It explained everything that i needed to know.
so many hard-spls, so little time
k sorry this sounds so noobish but i've never seen so many hard-spl's in one forum before ha..
so you're basically saying if people are having trouble flashing with the other hard-spl (do you have any explanation as to why this is?) they should just try each of these and see which one works?
i guess what i'm wondering is why would 1.23hard-spl work better for someone than 1.34? what i'm guessing right now is, 1.24 is MFG so should work better in most instances, but technically the best 'fit' would be a hard-spl based on your shipped spl?
Hi everyone!
Here's the deal! I'm no noob to flashing, cooking and HardSPL as I'm positive there are plenty of users who are swimming in the same pool.
Moving from another device's forum (Trinity) to the Diamond forum is quite a shock. So many posts, so many threads.
There are so many HardSPLs. OK, no problem! But what I DO miss is a tutorial thread with nice and clear descriptions stating for instance "You will need this HardSPL for this ROM", ""You will need this HardSPL for Official ROM", "You don't need any HardSPL for Official ROM", etc.
For instance:
I'm running an old version of Radio and Official Diamond ROM (Stock), 1.00.25.03 Radio and 1.37.479.3 WWE ROM.
Bootloader version is:
Code:
DIAM100 64M
SPL-1.37.0000
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x30
I'd like to first upgrade to another Official ROM, like RUU_Diamond_hTC_Asia_HK_WWE_1.93.831.1.
No info on following:
- changing an original to another original ROM: is there need for HardSPL?
- changing a supposed EU original to an Asia original ROM: is there need for HardSPL?
- if there is need for it when upgradin ROM, which one to choose based on bootloader info?
- if there is need for it when upgradin Radio, which one to choose based on bootloader info?
etc.
I can live with my new device with stock ROM, I can tweak it, no problem.
But it is my strong belief that a detailed tutorial/description/info/guide thread could get a nice sticky.
Something that would make new users like:
"Oh, I just bought a Diamond, I read this sticky, compared my bootloader info with the ones stated in the thread, checked my ROM and Radio, checked my new ROM and Radio which I want to flash, so I need this/I don't need any HardSPL and it worked"
Yes, call it spoon-feeding, but while looking at the Forums and reading and searching, there's so much clutter some can't even find the Search button!
My two cents!
I totally agree !!! We are needing that "tutorial for dummies"
Im new to the Diamond forum too, had a tytn for ages though.
I found everything i needed to know on the wiki

Yes, but still, is there any need for HardSPL when flashing to another Official HTC ROM? And is there any need for HardSPL when flashing to another issuer of the Official HTC ROM (from EU to Asia HK)?

You don't need HardSPL to flash an official ROM. If you want to be really sure then simply go to the HTC site (I used HTC Europe), register as a user, input your phone's serial number and it should tell you that you can download the 1.93 ROM. This way you can do a 100% official upgrade before deciding if you want to use a cooked ROM.

Contradictory information?
Now since I don't have any updates in my own e-Club, there's the HardSPL option with other (even Official) ROMs.
Question is: which one? (1.23, 1.24, 1.34, Developer edition, Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex, HardSPL_OliNex138_Signed or RUU_Signed_1_93OliNex_HSPL_UnsignedEdition).
This is crazy!
Maybe that's the difference then - perhaps ROM downloads via the e-club are treated differently, although I can't think how.
Seems that Cmonex and Olipro are the SPL experts here (I'm sure you've already seen this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400402) so maybe they're the best ones to help.
If it helps I updated to HardSLP 1.4 and ran quite happily on my stock ROM before upgrading to Dutty's ROM. I guess it's down to how adventurous/risky you want to be.
Good luck.
1. look at the next posts, i blew it on this answer..
i like my diamond with hardspl and unlocked (using the developers, unsigned hardspl). i advice you to do the same. this covers all, signed, unsigned and official ROMs.
here, an answer from THE expert:

2. if i convinced you to hardspl then go to the unsigned version:

i am using it from the beginning (2 month at least) and i flashed my diamond 4 times without any problem at all.

already there, in almost each ROM thread.
i think all cooks start their thread with the warning (hardspl first!) and a link to the recommended hardspl.
bepe is "all signed" so he never mention which hardspl.

i wonder what happened to you.... learn from post #3!! you are a ROM cook...you are the "uber" user! we should ask you questions
I know you say if you flash an official (uncooked) ROM to your handset then you don't need SPL however I have a Vodafone branded Diamond which won't allow you to flash a non Vodafone branded ROM so I am ssuming that you still need to use SPL to go to an unbranded ROM even if it is generic HTC.

i think you are right. never thought at this scenario.....
usually i don't buy my pda branded. no plan, no 3 years, free as a bird!
thanks for bringing it to my attention.
yeah, hard-spl to allow you to flash ROMs from other regions..
technically you shouldn't need it to 'protect' your device since its an official ROM upgrade, but then again you're trying to flash an upgrade that's not from your region so not too sure how that affects your warranty.. i would stick with hard-spl no matter what.
Although you may experience better results with certain ROMs using a certain SPL (this hasn't been clearly shown on the diamond to my knowledge) seems like the SPL is more tied to your hardware (why certain people get screen flicker and fuzzy fonts after flashing.. wrong SPL). so it stands to reason if your hardware doesn't change, you *shouldn't* have to change your SPL just cause you're flashing a new ROM
KukurikU said:
1. you don't need hardspl when you want to flash an official ROM.
if you should need one then HTC should release it with the ROM. no such thing!
HTC release official ROM "like it is" for all ppl even for the ones that never heard of hardspl. simple logic.
if you buy it branded look at the next two posts!

I have experince now with 3 HTC devices: 1. i had Trinity with wwe rom when i bought it-> try to put it to my language (Finnish ROM) didnt work, used hardspl-> it worked
2. Polaris with wwe 6.0 rom, tried to update to the latest wm6.0 rom which was a rom from Singapore, no succes-> put hardspl in device->it worked
3. In my Diamond i put hardspl right away(after 2 hour use), so that one i didnt test at all, based on my previous experience I didnt even try to flash the official 1.93 rom witout hardspl
So at least my concution is that u must have hardspl even when you want to flash a official rom from another region. Dont offcourse no if that is a fact, just what i have experience
[/QUOTE]So at least my concution is that u must have hardspl even when you want to flash a official rom from another region. Dont offcourse no if that is a fact, just what i have experience[/QUOTE]
From my experience from the diamond, you have to flash hardspl onto your handset before you can use 'other region' roms even when it is 'official'.
I have a HK WWE handset and tried to flash my rom with the first upgrade rom from SEA, and it wouldnt flash. it would say my handset is not from the correct region.
i flashed a hard spl afterwards and it worked.
So from pak1234 experience we can make some conclusion? its the same experience I got with Polaris and Trinity

Hi,
As a total recent Noob (TRN), I spent about 2 working days trying to find out where to start. In particular, the definition of HardSPL, ROM and Radio.
It was very difficult to ramp up to speed. you guys rock, seriously, but your community can thrive if you lower the gate a bit. Think about all the time you'll save in the long run by giving noobs somewhere to start. 'There are no stupid questions, only arrogant responses'. -- I read that somewhere here.
For anyone who enjoys noob-razing, come visit me and I'll stick you in with my horses. Get some payback.
A Where-To-Start sticky would help enormously.
peace.
PS - Eventually I found www.modmydiamond.info and started reading. I nearly cried when my Swiss language-locked Diamond started talking in good auld English.

congrats on yr first successfull step (english language on yr swiss locked diamond)! perseverance and good reading skills pay back.
welcome to our forum!
from yr post i can understand that you started as an intelligent user/member of this forum (as opposed to noob) by using this forum accordingly with it's rules.
there are stupid questions. if one of the next is called by somebody "arrogant response" then he'll have to adjust or just grow elephant skin (i can name a few that already did):
1. "search, this was already posted". (most used)
2. "read the manual." (almost an insult)
3. "read wiki." (friendly, useful advice)
4. "most of the polls are useless." (no comment necessary)
5. "comparisons between any other ppc and diamond does not belong here, this a diamond only forum." (sadly not enough enforced)
a noob is not somebody with a low count of posts. a noob is somebody with a noobish attitude (total disregard of the forum's rules and it's members, wanting everything now, ready, chewed and put in his mouth).
respect the forum and it's members and you'll get respect and help beyond yr wildest dreams.
yr PS only confirm all from the above.
i prefer not to comment yr horses-payback threat
noob here
Hello all, noob here, just got my diamond via vodafone NL.
The device is sim locked contrary to what the agreement with was.
The current rom running on it makes this device incredibly slow, my brother has an p3300 which works way faster than my diamond (but does not look so nice).
This made me start looking for a solution. I've been reading this site for three full days and I'm still very confused, everything and it's contrary is written here, how is one supposed to draw a conclusion?
With that said I would like to see a well written tutorial in plain english and that does not assume the reader is a techie.
It should explain:
- How to backup the original ROM and hardSPL
- How to flash a new rom and avoid issues with screen flickering and so on
- How to restore the original ROM and hardSPL in case the device needs to be send back for repair
- Clarify what to do with radio roms
- How to unlock a device to be used with any sim card (ok this already exists, i've seen the sticky)
Thanks
One more question to be added
- Why would you need a CID and security unlocker?
I thought it was just another name for sim card lock but apparently not.

You should go to Support section of their site, that is where they post ROM updates apparently. e-Club has only ringtones.

just to get the Hard-SPL is a blinking nightmare
OliNex Unsigned Hard-SPL (Developers Edition) or jockyw2001's HardSPL 1.24
on the OliNex Unsigned Hard-SPL (Developers Edition) he says
TO FLASH THE NEW Hard-SPL, Select Force-SPL, you should only choose otherwise when recovering your device from an old Hard-SPL version!

i am hoping some one can show some light and help me (us newbies)
get passed this by providing a simple how to, on how to get this all up
and running
thank you
PS. if you are going to reply with an high and almighty attitude then please
just move on as it requires less muscle energy and provides no solutions
Take a look here:
www.modmydiamond.info
Think it can be helpfull.
Take unsigned HardSPL just to save hassle, just be carefull what roms you flash.
If 20 people succesfully flashed it, so you can.
thanks Riel i be checking that out today

you "newbies" should have just opened your eyes to see the obvious:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
i think it's pretty well explained and any new questions should have already found their answers in that thread.
p.s. when i first joined there wasn't such a thread, and i still came through. you don't have to think flashing your rom is mission impossible
@Riel
Can you offer a WWE Rom for us?
Like you said installed by people and working?
Thanks
Hi,
I have a CDMA diamond (flashed) but now my friend ask me to flash her GSM diamond for her.
I am fairly familiar with flashing (it's a few clicks after all).
I usually get CDMA stuff from ppc-geeks and i am fully aware that xda-developers are for GSM diamond (that's why i am here).
I have a few questions after reading a few posts and hope someone can fill in the gaps:
1. I am aware that HardSPL which only allows Oilnex signed rom seems to be a better idea. Which version i should try?
2. I am aware that there are many roms out there and each has its own pros and cons. Would anyone name a few that's closest to the stock diamond rom and name a few that's most popular?

1. try olinex unsigned (developers) hardspl: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211 (section A, point 1)
2. u need closest to stock - try the one in my signature (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=422417)
good luck!
1.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400950 1.93Olinex unsigned proven to be work on any rom so far=tested by me self without any problem
2. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438313
The 1.93.olinex is probably the best choice because there are only a handfull of oli signed roms in existence. The non-dev version of hardspl should go the way of the dodo as people seem to rarely use it.
