Need desperate help with possibly bricked Diamond

Hi all,
Just received my Vodafone-branded Diamond, and I'm afraid I already managed to brick it!
It was equipped with version "1.37.172.3 NLD" so I decided to upgrade it to the latest version.
The installation of OliNex Hard-SPL 1.93 went flawless, but the installation of ROM "RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.93.456.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe" stopped at about 25% with error code 302. The recovery method that came with the package didn't help, every time the upgrade stopped at the same moment.
Since the device is stuck in the bootloader, and I'm left with a non-chargeable battery, I tried the official Vodafone-branded "RUU_Diamond_Vodafone_NL_1.97.172.4_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.44.25.24_1.08.25.08_Ship.exe" ROM. Unfortunately, this upgrade stops at 48% and throws the same 302 error.
Anyone who can tell me what I'm doing wrong, and what I can do to solve all this?
I hope I don't have a brand new, but bricked device on Christmas!
TIA and have a nice day.

Try a hard reset first. If this doesn't help google or search at XDA for MTTY.
This tool can fix your device

Try this, maybe will work

Try a Vodafone branded stock rom before mtty.

He already tried a stock rom....

Potential Solution
Have you looked at the thread titled,
[UPG][TRBL]How-to fix: Update/Flash doesnt work, stops at 0% or 5% (invalid model ID)
It may just be a model ID glitch that can me fixed.
Take a look. It's in this forum in a sticky by cptsunshine.

Thanks all for the help, I'll have a look at your suggestions.
The problem isn't that it stops at 0% or 5%, it stops at random percentages (depending on the ROM I use).
I also see the bootloader (red / green / blue), so it's not dead. I guess it's just that it doesn't pick up a ROM.
Besides, the bootloaders says upgrade ROM code error please try again.
Edit:
A hard reset doesn't seem to work. In the bootloader, when I press "volume down" and "enter" together, and press the "reset button" the screen goes black, but then goes back to the bootloader screen after a sec or 2.
Edit 2:
MTTY doesn't do much either, after executing "boot" the phone is showing me the Vodafone logo and that's it.
For the rest, MTTY shows me the following:
Cmd>boot
InitDisplay: Display_Chip=1
dwDirectNum: 0, dwMatrixNum: 0, dwMicroPNum: 0
Fixed new dwPSImageSize = 0x53E0000

Install Rom via Internal Memory Method
Steps from Suiller:
1. open from your PC the rar or zip archive and extract only the BIG .nbh file
2. rename as DIAMIMG.NBH
3. copy the renamed file into the root dir of your "Storage Card" or "Internal Storage" (the one of 4Gb... NOT to the internal phone memory!)
4. reset your device and within 3 seconds push together the Vol_Down + Back button (the one on the right above the hangup button) and keep pressed until the boot loader appears (the one with the color stripes)
5. soon as you see the bootloader stop to press those poor buttons
6. a very simple gray menu will appear asking you what to do, simple press the power button to perform the ROM/Radio upgrade
7. while the upgrade runs be patient and don't press again the power button, reset the device or play with it until it finishes, when finished a message "UPDATE SUCCESS" will appear, now you can safely reset your device
8. who prefer can perform a hard reset after the fresh cook (soon after reset simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format), even if this has no-sense because internal memory is pre-formatted during flash, but... there is always a but... for some unknown "scientific" reason sometimes an hard-reset can save time & headache
Let me know how it goes.
Make sure you have Net framework 3.5 installed on devices.

I wish I could mate, but I cannot put files on it anymore, since ActiveSync doesn't recognize my device when it's in the bootloader.

Can you please be more specific? Are you telling me how to do a hard reset? I tried as to do a hard reset, but it goes back to the bootloader instead of resetting. USB stick?
Thanks all, much appreciated. A pain this can happen, looking at the fact that I did everything exactly as described in all these flashing manuals.

No mate, I never had problems getting into the 3 color screen. The problem was updating afterwards, which never completed without error code 302.
Anyway, I guess I just fully bricked my device after putting SPL-1.40.OliNex (according to the guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211) on it. The SPL install was succesful, but when booting I'm now not even getting to see the 3 color bootloader. All I see is the Vodafone logo with some version numbers at the bottom, but that's it. It doesn't boot further on, and I can't get a USB-connection.
Edit:
Volume down + reset brought me in the bootloader again, although it's saying SPL-1.93.OliNex.

that i know but as i say in the post that when u do it that way i say u can load new firmware whitout it needs to boot try my friend i have done it 3 times because wrong loading of firmware

u have to only push thoose 2 buttom then it will work because u go to rescue mode

But what will that give me extra? I can access the Hard-SPL 1.93 bootloader (3 color screen), and I can get into USB mode. It's just that the upgrade of both firmwares stop at a certain percentage.
I'm constantly trying to hard reset the device, but after pushing the reset button (with both volumn down + enter pressed down), the device just reboots back into the bootloader and doesn't give me the hard reset warning.

u need to hold them down until it leave the 3 color display an turns into grey

Ok, finally managed to do a hard reset. Afterwards I tried upgrading to the official Vodafone NL 1.97 ROM once more, but it failed at 48% again.
Any ideas what to do? I know have Diamond with Hard-SPL 1.93 (which says upgrade ROM code error) with no working OS.

Ok all, got it finally working again!
Don't ask me why, but flashing the newest Dutty ROM (and the included radio) did work.
Thanks for all your help, and a wonderful evening!

Hi all,
I have a quit similar problem. I've read a lot, but couldn't find an answer to my problem - may bye someone can help me.
I updated my Dimond (OliNex Hard-SPL 1.93, radio 1.09.25.23 and rom dutty V4). When I start my phone most of the time (95% plus) I end up in the color screen - however some time it's starts perfect (without changing anything).
When I get stock in the color screen, I can start the phone with mtty and the command "boot".
What can I do to make my phone always start in the normal way?
Thanks!

i smell a radio issue - last time i was trying to upgrade my radio - ended up with something similar, managed it out like you did - but now you're up - so that's good!!
try some other rom (this time without radio) - i don't think you should have any issues going forward... good luck and have fun!

Rom upgrade problem

Last night I wanted to install the official new dutch Vodafone rom for my diamond, from 1.37 to 1.97, so I started reading on the forums.
First I did a hard SPL, and now I have a SPL-1.30. Olinex, so I think that is right.
After the hard SPL I tried installing the RUU, but every time it starts installing, the progressbar stays at 0% and after some minutes, i get an 262 error. I tried it at several PC's, XP, Vista, Windows 7. So that is not the problem.
Anyone has an idea how to fix this?
greetings from holland, and sorry for my crappy english

Anyone has an idea, im realy wanting to upgrade

Sounds like u did everything right....but when flashing, using your pc is the last solution. Always flash Radios or Roms using the internal method.
Got this from Suiller:
COOKING ROMs & Radios from phone =-
1. open from your PC the rar or zip archive and extract only the BIG .nbh file
2. rename as DIAMIMG.NBH
3. copy the renamed file into the root dir of your "Storage Card" or "Internal Storage" (the one of 4Gb... NOT to the internal phone memory!)
4. soft reset your device and within 3 seconds push together the Vol_Down + Back button (the one on the right above the hangup button) and keep pressed until the boot loader appears (the one with the color stripes)
5. soon as you see the bootloader stop to press those poor buttons
6. a very simple gray menu will appear asking you what to do, simple press the power button to perform the ROM/Radio upgrade

I only hard reset after a new Rom has been installed.........I don't do this for Radios.

I have the vodafone 1.97 rom on my computer, but it is an exe file. And I can't unrar it. So where can I find that big.nbh file?

I placed the nbh file, and i called it DIAMIMG. But when i boot, i get a grey screen that says loading and doesn't goes away.
Help needed!

Change the hard-spl to 1.93 olinex and your problem is over, has worked for me with all roms so far. And when you flash, put your phone in bootloader mode manualy and your flashes works every time.
And if the rom is a exe file you can forsure unzip it!! use right tool for that, ex. winzip and you have your .nbhfile
If the file is DIAMIMG.nbh you can rename it to RUU_signed.nbh and fla**** with udK.s Custom RUU

Maybe it's a noob question but where can i find the 1.93 version. And can i just install it over the SPL 1.30 version?
And how do i put it in manual boot?

Here you have the 1.93 version
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400950
just flash the new one over 1.30 version
Manual boot
Volumedown + reset (hold it down for a while, and the 4 color screen will appear)
Put manual boot only when flash rom!! not hard-spl

It finally worked! Thank you all!

HTC Diamond ROM Updating problem - ERROR [294]: INVALID VENDOR ID

Hi, tried to use search and found a lot of information about that problem, but non of them solved my problem.
So, i have HTC Diamond (P3700) (ROM: 1.93.479.3.WWE, Radio: 1.00.25.05, Protocol: 52.29.25.12H, S/N: HT841GN13099)
Tried download latest ROM version from official website (http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=2&dl_id=483), but when i wrote my S/N i got error message - Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.
If i'll trying to download earlier ROM version (http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=2&dl_id=2) with the same S/N I haven't any problem (of course and can install it).
Also I tried to download all ROM version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471699, but when installing these ROM I always get an error - ERROR[294] : INVALID VENDER ID
In other thread I found link to http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems#problem3, but when I was falling all instructions I get an error again (but now problem was with connection)
Also I wrote a letter to HTC support twice, but I didin't get any response
So maybe I can find somewhere S/N decoder to know more information about my phone (for e.gd phone was locked, or belonged to other operator?) and why I have problem when updating to the latest ROM version. Does anybody can suggest other solution to this problem?

You are unable to download the official rom from htc as your phone obviously was supplied by an operater who has put their own rom on it.
You need to proceed with a Hard-SPL if you wish to change ROM.
It sounds like you have an operater ROM so it's blocking your changing of the ROM to anything non-operater.
Read the wiki section for the Diamond here , especially the section : Upgrading / cooking / flashing.
with this section that clearly explains all you need to know about applying a Hard-SPL : Diamond Hard-SPL

Thanks for your advices.
When I bought that phone seller didn't mention that this phone belongs to some operator. So is it possible to get information to witch operator it belongs (phone doesn't have any operator brands on his self, and isn't any special application or images in it).
And one more time... is it realy possible that phone belongs to operator... because like I wrote before that i can download and install earlier ROM from official web site, but problem is only with the latest ROM.

Perhaps the download doesn't work as many people had problems installing the latest rom ? It would reboot into the bootscreen & block.
Maybe they have the download until they know why it screws up (but works perfect via an internal flash).
Dunno though, as it's weird you getting the 'operater' message.
Anyway, you can get the latest official rom in here, so you'll be able to flash your device.
Here's the thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471699

Just flash it from the internal storage. Works fine. Extract the setup with winrar or something, then you will see 2 files - one approx 140Mb, the other one like 2Mb. Rename the big one to Diamimg.nbh and copy it to your internal storage.
* Soft Reset + Hold volume down button + back button <----
* Follow instructions on screen

Read here where it says "stops at 5% or invalid model id:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409425
Next think about HardSPL.

1.93.479.3 if you had this rom in your device, and you tried to download from HTC Support site and get the "This is rom isnt for your device" you get this because there are NO 2.03.479.3 rom the BOLD tells you what region rom u are using. And If you download another rom and try to flash and get "invalid vendor" you MUST hard-spl your device, after that you can flash every rom you can find an example of region rom, I have put this at least 4 times now so people try o understand what i meen when speaking of region roms.

Thanks everyone for advices!
First i tried Kevbodian recommended method. Downloaded OliPro's NBH Util and tried rebuild NBH file, but program generates only empty file (0Kb - size), maybe it doesn't work in Windows 7 So I'm fail.
Then tried laser21 method and succeed! I downloaded Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex.zip (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2312363&postcount=2), installed them, and made everything step by step like he wrote.
Phone works seams fine, but maybe a little bit slower , so I'm tried reinstall ROM one more time, but do that in standard way. Just downloaded _RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471699) and ran it. Everything was fine (installation pass 100%) but than it shows - ERROR [270] - UPDATE ERROR, phone also restarted and shows information in red/green/blue/white background.
In red space
Code:
DIAM100 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
In green space
Code:
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x32
Upgrade ROM code error
Place try again
So one more time I made like laser21 recommended - and phone works again. But can I do something more that latter update i can do in standard way ?

I'm not sure what you mean by:

But...If you are upgrading the ROM or Radio please use this highly recommend way.
1. open from your PC the rar or zip archive and extract only the .nbh file
2. rename as DIAMIMG.NBH
3. copy the renamed file into the root dir of your "Storage Card" or "Internal Storage" (the one of 4Gb... NOT to the internal phone memory!)
4. soft reset your device and within 3 seconds push together the Vol_Down + Back button (the one on the right above the hangup button) and keep pressed until the boot loader appears (the one with the color stripes)
5. soon as you see the bootloader stop to press those poor buttons
6. a very simple gray menu will appear asking you what to do, simple press the power button to perform the ROM/Radio upgrade
7. while the upgrade runs be patient and don't press again the power button, reset the device or play with it until it finishes, when finished a message "UPDATE SUCCESS" will appear, now you can safely reset your device
8. who prefer can perform a hard reset after the fresh cook (soon after reset simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format), even if this has no-sense because internal memory is pre-formatted during flash, but... there is always a but... for some unknown "scientific" reason sometimes an hard-reset can save time & headache

I did everything like you (and laser21) wrote. But now i have problem when updating ROM in standart way - downloading official ROM exe file, and ran it (like I wrote before, after 100% proceed it display error that update unsucceed)
So why now I can't update ROM in standard way, maybe is solution to fix that problem ?

1. open from your PC the rar or zip archive and extract only the .nbh file
2. rename as DIAMIMG.NBH
3. copy the renamed file into the root dir of your "Storage Card" or "Internal Storage" (the one of 4Gb... NOT to the internal phone memory!)
4. soft reset your device and within 3 seconds push together the Vol_Down + Back button (the one on the right above the hangup button) and keep pressed until the boot loader appears (the one with the color stripes)
5. soon as you see the bootloader stop to press those poor buttons
6. a very simple gray menu will appear asking you what to do, simple press the power button to perform the ROM/Radio upgrade
7. while the upgrade runs be patient and don't press again the power button, reset the device or play with it until it finishes, when finished a message "UPDATE SUCCESS" will appear, now you can safely reset your device
8. who prefer can perform a hard reset after the fresh cook (soon after reset simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format), even if this has no-sense because internal memory is pre-formatted during flash, but... there is always a but... for some unknown "scientific" reason sometimes an hard-reset can save time & headache

HTC TP2 bricked? Freezes at Start up!

Please help!
My HTC TP2 freezes at start up with the black screen and the Touch Pro2 Logo and some details in red at the bottom:
B 80
R 4.49.25.17
G 61.44tc.25.32U
D 1.86.67102
No USB connection can be established.
What happened:
1. Tried to update from original WM 6.1 to WM 6.5 by using the official HTC ROM update utility. Seems like USB connection broke during update and update freezed at 42%. Update utility process has stopped by itself (no process visible anymore in the Task Manager).
2. Restarted phone and multicolor screen appeared and stayed. After connecting with USB cable again "USB" appeared at the bottom. Started again the HTC ROM update utility which recognized the phone and started the update process again, but stopped at the beginning with an error message stating something like the ROM is broken.
3. Restarted again (by removing the battery and hit power button) and state reached like described above (HTC TP2 freezes at start up with the black screen and the Touch Pro2 Logo and some details in red at the bottom).
4. Performed a hard reset but did not help.
What can I do to bring the phone back to life?

So you can't or can get in the colored screen now? (the boatloader)
And it's kind of normal that their nothing happens after the tp2 + red information screen, this since their is no rom to startup.
EDIT
Is it possible to tell exactly what error you got?
EDIT
Try to hard reset your device, do you know how to do this?
If not this is how to do it:
To perform a hard reset
1. With the device turned off, press and hold the TALK/SEND, END and POWER buttons until you see this message on the screen.
"This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. Press VolUp to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel."
2. Release the TALK/SEND, END and POWER buttons.
3. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.

This is just what worked for me..
Had the same issue on my tp...
Hope it will work for you.

Did already the hard reset - but this did not help as nothing changed!
One further info: whenever I insert the battery the device automatically starts up - until it freezes again at the start up.
Can someone please help?

It's normal that the device starts up when the battery is plugged in...
But this is just what I know out of my own experience.
So sorry I can't help you farther.
EDIT
Did some research you might want to try to flash your phone by micro sd... (not for sure if it helps but by some people it did work)
Read the tread about flashing at the top of the rhodium section and you know how to do it.

Did another trial: downloaded and copied a RHODIMG.nbh to the micro sd card, inserted it again and pressed volume up at startup -> colored screen appears shortly, then switches to a white screen telling "Loading..." in blue font color, but nothing more.
Is there anybody out there who can help?
Do I need a specific RHODIMG.nbh to make this approach working? I didn't flash this device before, so it has been still in the original manufacturer's state.

suppose 2 press down volume not up after soft reset

This may help,
Try entering bootloader by switching off device then switch back on holding down the Vol down key.
If you can enter bootloader this way then you wil be able to flash from SD card following the instructions from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
if you want to flash the Official update from HTC you can extract the Nbh from the Exe file you downloaded from them, just use winzip, Zzip or Win RAR to extract the contents from the Exe you are looking for RUU_signed.nbh..follow the above thread instructions to change the name of the file to RHODIMG.nbh.
I DONT KNOW IF YOU NEED TO HARD SPL FOR THIS..Probably better to do it than not. Can Anyone Confirm???
i hope this helps

Device is up and running again !
Could enter bootloader mode and tried first to install again via the official HTC installer -> worked!
Thanks a lot for your support!

great news welldone Bro and welcome to the forum!!!

For future info, from what I have gathered you must hardSPl for all ROM flashes. If the ROM you flash is the stock ROM, you can also revert your SPL to stock. For any other ROM, you must leave your device hardSPL'd.
Hope I helped.

how were you able to connect the phone with the pc. i seem to have a similar problem but am finding it difficult to connect the phone to the pc. i have activesync installed but cannot connect to the phone

is it possible to connect to active sync in bootloader, cos my phone cannot even boot, it freezes up with a white screen and htc logo.

After entering bootloader you can flash either way,either by ruu package provided by your ROM's maker or running official ruu release or if you have the renamed file on the root of your sd card....I never use sd card flashing and have never had a failed flash...If in bootloader it will not connect with activesync,but device should be recognized by ruu.exe

Urgent help required.

Hi.
I'm trying to flash the new Gen Y D2 R5 WM 6.1 ROM... I've completed the MTTY method and now I have the device in bootloader and plugged into the USB and it's recoginising the USB on bootloader but when I try to run the RUU to flash the actual ROM it says connection error.
I've tried allowing connection and not allowing connection on Active Sync but it's still not working. The furthest it's got it going to the percentage screen and sticking at 0% and then appearing saying connection error.
Please can you help your urgently... any help will be highly appreciated and will donate via PayPal as I need this sorting like ASAP.
Mark.

Just to be sure, did you run HardSPL?

i assume you had hardspl as you can run mtty.
please refer to this as both of your problem looks similar.

Internal Storage Flashing
Sometimes flashing via internally corrects this.
COOKING ROMs & Radios from phone =-
1. open from your PC the rar or zip archive and extract only the BIG .nbh file
2. rename as DIAMIMG.NBH

4. soft reset your device and within 3 seconds push together the Vol_Down + Back button (the one on the right above the hangup button) and keep pressed until the boot loader appears (the one with the color stripes)

It's all good now just needed a hard reset. I think I've learned a lesson when it comes to flashing a new ROM lol. Love the new ROM and this version of TF3D.

good to hear it worked out..have fun with your 'new' device

Cheers bud.
Any ideas why the weather feature isn't working for me. It cant find my location and even if I add my location it can't update the weather info for my location?

how do you connect to internet? 3G? Wifi?

Through 3G most of the time and sometimes I get an EDGE signal. I just got an error message saying "There was a connection error while attempting to download weather data"
Any ideas how I can solve this.

So what your saying is I have to connect via WiFi to allow me to download the weather updates.
How am I meant to downlaod the weather data on the go when I am not at home.
EDIT: It seems to be working fine just needed to change the time and location to my current one in menu.
