Does the device hard reset when installing Olinex HardSPL? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

Hello,
just wanted to upgrade my radio and read that this does not reset the device. But then I read that I need to install an unsigned SPL first, and could not find information about a possible reset when doing this. So, does installing Olinex reset my phone like a ROM upgrade?
Thanks

SPL - Service Providor Lock. Your phone has a SPL in place to prevent you from flashing a ROM from another providor for example. By Flashing Hard-SPL - you permanently remove the SPL check when flashing a ROM thereby allowing you to flash any ROM that is designed for your device.
You can use Soft-SPL which will prevent the check from happening when you flash on a once only basis. If you have a problem during the upgrade - the ONLY way to recover you phone is by flashing the original ROM. Therefore if you don't have the original ROM to hand - Hard-SPL is highly recommended! It allows you to flash another ROM if you have a problem during a flash - thereby recovering your device.

Since you're not giving any details I don't know what your exact issue is. It depends on your Phone and where you got it.
Most likely your issue can be resolved by reading the thread which I link to in my signature.

If you HardSPL you wont be able to install a standard HTC ROM without some faffing, I had this problem this week, so if your 1.93 is the released Standard OEM HTC one then dont HardSPL whatever you do.
thanks alot guys. what a quick response. and sorry for the caps lock if it got u confused.
as far as the details of the phone is concerened. its an orange UK contract phone with the ROM version 1.37.405.1 WWE radio 1.00.25.03. the phone hasnt been flashed at all. i did try to flash it to _QMR_RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_1.93.405.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe but was unable to. i guess i should have hard spl it before.
i m guessing the only thing i need to do is to hard spl it right. or do i need to do something else as well.
again thanks alot guys for the quick responses.
hi tony.
i have actually tried to do it without hard spl but it would get stuck on 1%. is there any other way to do it. i believe the ROM i m trying to flash to is an official one as far as the thread i downloaded it from is concerend.
one thing to clear here. its the first time i m trying to flash from 1.37 to 1.93 official rom. could someone confirm that there is a 1.93... official rom available or is it one of the cooked ones. and could one confirm as well that i need to hard spl even flashing from oficial to official rom. coz two post before tony mentioned not to hard spl.
any ideas guys. thanks
Here's what I've just done, I hope it helps -
Vodafone UK to UK release HTC ROM.
1. I read the info here, over and over and asked lots of questions.
2. I checked the current SPL of my fone (Volume Down & Reset) and found I had 1.37.
3. Downloaded Hard SPL 1.37 UnSigned and installed it - Here was my first problem. Everyone just says use RUU to install hard SPL however the SPL's I downloaded didn't come with RUU so I took a guess and decided that RUU was a generic flasher which could also flash the SPL for me.
4. Use RUU to flash the SPL, mine reported V1.0 as the new ROM version but installed and rebooted perfectly to reveal the coloured screen informng that I did now have a Cooked SPL installed.
5. Followed the fisrt startup procedure that the phone asked me to do.
6. Flashed the new ROM in a similar way to flashing the Hard SPL.
7. Phone flashed ok and I'm just in the process of setting it up now.
One issue I did have was using Vista I had to right click and run as Administrator to make it work.

wrong. if you use unsigned hardspl (aka "developer hardspl") it will flash HTC ROMs just fine
1.93 is also unsigned.

who's "everyone"? this information is totally wrong, wrong, wrong.
next time you download an attachment from a post, read the post where the attachment was, and you won't have this problem (the post that had the unsigned hardspl 1.37 also talked about where to get the special SSPL RUU for it - have a guess. it is in the same post in another attachment).

First of all, opening a thread is not the right thing to do for asking advice. about hard spl that means that you can flash whatever you want how many times you want without any restrictions you will not brick your phone if you do everything properly. by saying flashing everything you want I mean flashing everything from the DIAMOND FORUM. Please do not try to flash anything made for other devices. And next time ask the questions in its right place on this case you should have asked on the HARD SPL thread. Happy Flashing!

cant install Hardspl on O2 XDA diamond

i have O2 Xda diamond, when i restart the device i can see the following details:
R 1.00.25.05
G 52.29.25.12 H
D 1.93.00.00
i wanted to install WWE ROM so i decided to install Hardspl 1.4 from the Olipro thread in this forum.
but while doing update it showed the version as "1.30" and when the update was complete it automatically hard reset my device!! (i had followed the hardspl update guide on "modmydiamond", where it says that device will only be soft reset after update.
i also cant enter bootloader by pressing "vol down+ reset " key and my phone simply restarts when i do this and shows the same info as before the update on the initial screen.
can anybody tell what is going wrong here? as i want to conform hardspl is there before i proceed to ROM update.
i am a noob and any help is greatly appreciated.
Please post any problems in the relevant Hard SPL thread.

how to upgrade a rom 6.1 to artemis?

please help me,i want to update my artemis to wm6.1,how to proced?
Upgrade
First of all and most importantly you need instal a soft USPL. This is essential and will stop your phone from bricking.
Do a forum search for POF he is the god of all things unlocking and USPL and find the correct USPL for your phone. There are usually instructions attached so have a deep read.
Then you just need to flash the rom of your choice, again you will be instucted all the way through the flashing, then when you you are instructed all is well and the phone reboots ALWAYS DO A HARD RESET, Remember though that if you want to flash other roms you must always reinstal the USPL as this will not survive the hard reset.
