Hey everyone,
I've a problem with my touch Diamond. The Touchscreen doesn't response from any pressure. But the device itself works fine. So first a softreset didn't work out, a hard reset didn't ether. so flased it back to a original rom and. I'm trying to flash to the originel 1.34 spl with this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2324837&postcount=20 . because i want to send it back, or if someone knows how to solve it keep it ofcource. The device is stuck in the "press on the screen to calibarate". I go to the bootloading menu used the volumedown - reset button. When I flashed the orginel spl it just keep saying 1.40olinex. So how can I get my touchscreen working again or flash back to the original spl.
Btw, sorry for my bad gramma
I've to solve the problem one way or the other, but if they are going to get it monday in this state i've no warrenty.
Hello,
I've just installed HardSPL succesfully, after that I wanted to install MightyRom 4.6, so I did. That went succesfully too according to my computer. Now when i want to switch the phone on, it keeps hanging with the T-Mobile picture on it. I've done a hard reset for several times and also a few soft resets. I also took my battery out for a few minutes, but when I switch it on, the same thing happens.
Please help me out of this !
Ps. sorry for my bad english !
for taking a little stress from your brain take an other rom - orig. rom from your provider.....
(go bootloder from pda; if your orig. rom only one *.exe-file you have to extract (winzip/winrar) it before flashing; connect usb (bootloader screen change from serial to usb); than flash)
but before you do this, how long you have to wait and look to your screen?
it can be sometimes a very long time until a windows-screen is coming.
if your pda gets hot than dont wait and flash asap new rom.
after 5 minutes waiting without any changes you have to flash an other rom.
I think I may have the same problem with my Diamond. I also installed MightyRom 4.6. Now, when I power up my phone, I get through the RGB stage to a white backdrop with instructions in blue to push volume button up for a reboot to manufacturers settings or push volume button down to reboot to manufacturers settings and wipe the movinand....after I select either one, when it gets to the HTC logo (HTC Diamond in white on a black background), it freezes. My pc won't recognise my phone when I plug it in...
Do I now have a really gorgeous paperweight or can I hold my Diamond to my ear again? Insight into my problem would be much appreciated.
By the way, XDA Dev rocks. Thanks to all who made this site possible.
Brick or no brick ?
Oh, I forgot to mention that my phone was a non-branded HTC running a Duttys rom. I did not want to get a DOPOD Diamond from China Mobile as they cost more and I dunno if they put Big Brother software in there.

do you have it in the boot loader before you plug it in to your pc?
Brickety brick, brick, brick...
My phone does not recognize my pc and vice versa. I tried plugging the phone in before booting it up. I tried while booting up. I tried at the white screen stage...nothing...help...
It also doesn't stay at the RGB screen for long...maybe 2 seconds...
Please break it to me gently if I have killed my HTC...I don't want to start drinking again...
...
My phone is a GSM Diamond. MightyRom 4.6 is for CDMA. If I combine the two(like I did) then am I screwed?
Can someone please give me some insight, please? I have been scouring the net for 3 days non stop now and my eyes are going to explode...
What is Jtag and can your average home user use it? Is it hardware or software...?
Cobbs: I assume when you say bootloader you mean something other than the RGB screen,,,cos as I stated in my first post, my phone does not stop on the RGB screen...
I had an HTC Diamond that kept freezing so I decided to flash the new rom with same version but it stopped at 12% and went black screen(nothing)..after that I cannot power on the phone any more. I tried to get to boot mode but nothing happened...can anyone help and suggest what I need to do to fix this phone please?
If you cannot enter the bootloader mode, then the only solution is the service center... I'm afraid...
did you try remove battery and put it back on??
Ok first quetstion is, were you trying to install the offical ROM downloaded from HTC? If so, send your unit back to the service center & they should fix it for you.
On the other hand if you were trying to install a custom ROM (ie not offical) this might end up costing your money or they may refuse to fix the phone.
One question for you, if you were upgrading using a custom ROM (ie not offical), you would have been advised in the relevant topic to install a HARD SPL before attempting to flash, did you? If so what version, someone might be able to help you.
Happened the same to me a couple of months ago, it´s dead, and it means really dead, send it to service center to change mainboard.
thanks for your help...yes i did remove battery for few hours..then few days..the rom i was using was the original rom, RUU_Elfin_DOPODASIA_WWE_2.20.707.1B_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_BLUE_Ship_Reduced
and the warranty expired so I can't return for service..
there is a possibility of your battery being dead - any idea? do you have a wall charger? do you have an extra battery? do you have a friend with a diamond?
try another battery, or charge this one... and then try to normal start... if doesn't work go to boot loader (hope you know how to) and if still it's completely dead... service center may be the only way out
Happened to me, I was upgrading to offical Indian rom from HTC. The phone went dead rebooting again and again just after the HTC logo appears. I took it to HTC service center, but of no help. I guess they are ediots. Then I took it to a local repair shop & they made it work in 15minutes only. So dont worry get it flashed from any local repair shop.

Maybe someone can advise you if there is anything you can do ...

Confirmed, the version of the ROM you used is not for Diamond - it is for the HTC Touch. You will have bricked your device completely by doing this... New motherboard I'm afraid.
Raphel Dead
Hi,
I have just flashed my raphel to a new ROM. All went fine and the customisation screen of the new Rom was completed and touch flo screen installed. Then I removed the battery to insert SIM and the phone just wouldn't switch on.
I tried Hard Reset from off and the secreen with the colours came up and the warning that all data will be deleted. I pressed on the up volume and it started hard reset. When phone tried to rebute it remained dead.
Can anyone help please
Joseph
i really hope u didnt flash a Diamond ROM on your Raphael...if u did, check if u can load the stock rom again...
Yup flash the stock rom...
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Dear all,
I got brand new HTC Touch Pro2 T7373 that is not locked.
The phone is DEAD and does not boot.
I tried vol+ and pressing power on.
The phone green led goes on.. and stays like that forever.
How is the recovery procedure?
I have done recovery procedure on my old HTC P3300 several times, but with this one, no success. Any help? Thanks in advance. (also I need original rom with english language if it is possible, please post a link.) Thanks again.
You ****ed it up. YOu tried a hardspl from a different device... BAD IDEA!! Sorry but you're screwed return your Touch Pro 2 to where you bought it from and see if you can get a new one but otherwise you're screwed

Dear all,
I got brand new HTC Touch Pro2 T7373 that is not locked.
I tried several times to change the firmware from German to WWE, because I do not understand German, but without success.
Then I applied raphael_cdma_vzw_hspl_035.rar because it does not accepted any other wwe firmware that I wanted to put on.
After that, the phone is DEAD and does not boot.
I tried vol+ vol- and reset the same time, and pressing power on.
The phone green led will bo on.. and stays like that forever.

you should have PM'd me for language change services.
now, your bootloader is probably dead if voldown+reset didn't work...
maybe the radio bootloader is still alive, but it would be quite difficult to unbrick it (requiring hardware tools) even if so.
You should consult the experts here before you try anything first, that is why we are here.
Dude! this a very expensive phone... handle with caution.
Now your phone.....RIP!.
Dear Cmonex, one question, as I have found, vol up + vol down + reset btn and then press power. Is this the way for entering the emergency mode, or it is something else (like you wrote... vol down + reset ) ???? maybee I do not enter the recovery mode correctly ???
Thanks for quick reply Cmonex , but thanks all also!!!

As Cmonex wrote,
Hold Vol Down (keep it pressed) and press the reset with the stylus.
This should take you to the tri-colour bootloader screen.
If it doesn't you have bricked your expensive device, the only way to recover is to get a new bootloader loaded via JTag, good luck getting someone to do that for you.
As is always stated here time and time again, read the information carefuly and if you don't understand ask.
Since you flashed a Raphael bootloader or rom or both ???? I'd say it's well and truly an expensive paper weight sir............ on the bright side though, you've learn't an extremely valuable lesson.
READ BEFORE YOU ACT.

Dear Beasty,
Thanks for the complete info.
I will try tomorrow morning first thing to enter vol down + reset, and try to upload new firmware. If it does fail, please give me info for Jtag pinouts. I have done until now flashing with jtag interface to satelite receivers, to linksys rooters but never to phones. However, I think that it will be similar because Jtag is Jtag . Please give me info about the Jtag if you have just for me to be prepared for tomorrow fight . Thanks. Regards.
What I want to know is why did the TP2 stock SPL allow digitalmk to flash an unsigned SPL (ie HardSPL)?
Are the SoftSPL hooks that close between the 2 phones?

I dont think any one here knows where the jtag pins are on this phone. You could always strip the phone down and be the first to know where the jtag pins/pads are...

probably just running SSPL bricked it.
(my newer SSPLs have a device model check but the cdma raphael package which he ran didn't have it)
I did something similar with my HTC Tornado a few years ago,
It was a lost cause, and I feel you are going to find the same.
its an expensive lesson to learn
Obviously, technically speaking you have voided your warranty... so you have a few options left:
Send device back to htc and play dumb *** not recomended could be classed as fraud?***
Find the Jtag pin outs and a method of flashing
purchase a new system board from ebay
break down the device and sell the parts on ebay
Cheers
Steve

Sorry I don't know the jtag pinouts and I don't believe anyone else has mapped them out as yet.

JTAG not easy probably
I was looking a while back for the Titan JTAG points because I also have used it a lot on other devices and someone sent me one he had killed. What I found by looking around surprised me that there appear to be no JTAG at least not in the Titan that are lined up. Someone on another model did it long ago but looking at taking the processor off the board to get to some pads below to do it, made me give it up.
with vol up + reset + power on, it starts green led
My phone is dead, I tried to hold vol down and press reset, but nothing..
BUT WHEN HOLDING VOL UP + CLICKING ON POWER ON, IT Lights green led (left from speaker) and keeps lighting.
When press reset + anything (vol down + reset ) or anything led goes off and does not start. This tells that it is not completely dead .. but.. where from here ??
Any help from here??
Regards to all
It is pretty much dead unless you can find the JTAG pin outs. No other options aside from getting a new one.
I suggest you return your TP2 and "play dumb"..
Wap in in the microwave for half a second. Frys everything. Play dumb.

maybe radio bootloader still works but you'd need to build a serial cable to access it and even then it's not an easy ticket to unbricking
hit it with 12+ volts at the battery terminals, should fry everything and it won't look like you stuck it in the microwave. Say "I think there was something wrong with my charger".......
Are you Dutch, digitalmk? I ask because two different Dutch posters bricked their gsm Raphaels this week flashing that same verizon hard spl. It seems weird as hell that so many people are doing that all of a sudden. Where did you get the idea to flash it?
Hi,
My phone became dead too. It worked normaly, but while i was talking he simply turn off. I thought that is empty battery, but he was on charger for few hours. Red light is on ( when charging), when i try to turn it on he vibrate and get to HTC Touch Pro 2 logo with red numbers in right corner and then go again off.
Does anyone know what maybe be a problem?
Hi,
My diamond was water damaged a while ago, I let it dry out for a couple of weeks and it did not work, I bought a new diamond and tried the battery in my old one and to my amazment it started up, well to the touch diamond screen anyway, it didn't display any red writing and the sreen stayed on but went black after that. I though the radio must have been gone so put it in the bootloader and tried to flash the same radio I had before 1.17, the white screen came up and all went fine but still the same problem!
I really need the data on my internal storage and so need to at least be able to read that. I don't care about it working forever thats why I bought another one as a doner!
Could someone please tell me what happened and how to fix it! Why does it not get past this?
Thanks.
Also I have hard reset it, reflashed the original ROM successfully, reflashed hardspl and reflashed the Stock SPL but it still does the same!
In case it helps the bootloader says:
DIAM100 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Wrong Platform(v0x0)
What does that mean?
I guess the water just bricked your device,
you'd better throw it away i think
there's one posible solution, go to your phone's store and ask if they have some machine to acces the internal storage. (something like this has to be alive somewhere)
Goodluck
MK.
I don't think it's bricked because it goes into the bootloader just fine. However there is something wrong with the firmware. Bricked normaly means it doesn't turn on at all!
Please someone help, especially the last line on the bootloader sounds worrying!
I am also having this problem, but I have not had water damage. I ran outa main memory and it froze and now I am having this problem. Some one told me it maybe caused by a bloated rom? I donno what that means. Any help would be great!
try radio 1.13
