Hiya XDA
I've been trying all evening to get any HardSPL onto my Diamond without success, everytime I try I get to 0% and after a few minutes "error [260] connection" and the phone keeps its' black screen until I soft-reset it.
Can anyone help me get a hardspl onto my phone? I would really like to try WM6.5. I've read many SPL-guides already, so you don't have to point me to them
(even that on modmydiamond.info)
Thanks in advance!

Here's the Tutorial and here's the Troubleshooter. They're both stickies. Please search and read before posting.
Thanks for the quick response, but as I said. I've read all stickies and guides, and it's still stuck at 0%.

Did you let your device sync with Activesync/Windows Mobile Device Center?
Try recreating the sync pairing.
Try uninstalling the device from PC's Device Manager and reinstalling it and then try recreating the sync partnership.
Try another USB port.
Yes, yes, yes and yes. I even tried doing it on my laptop.
Edit: I even tried flashing down to 1.93 with HTCs official stuff, no success there either

Another USB cable?
Try manually entering bootloader and connect to PC. The label should say USB not Serial and try from there.
esset,
May I ask what branding/model of the Diamond you own?
I own a pure AT&T model just purchased a week or two ago. And, so far I've also had almost zero luck flashing it. I'm moving from an AT&T Tilt which I've flashed so many times, the USB port is starting to wear down. I've also got a lot of experience with many small computing devices with all types of weird programming and flashing routines, so I'm not a newbie. But the AT&T Fuze just seems to be locked in a way that has yet to be covered by the good XDA folks here. Heck, I can't even dump the shipped ROM off the device to send it here for checking out by the developers. All I've been able to do is flash an odd 1.90 HardSPL that seems to have locked the phone even tighter than before. YUCK!
If you're in this same scenario, I'd suggest patience. Eventually someone with enough knowledge of these devices will be able to help out. It is frustrating though, after flashing the other phone so many times with so many different configurations to be held back on the new one.

You might find this odd. The down-volume + back arrow key combo doesn't seem to work with some of the new versions of the Diamond. I've tried on two of them, and neither respond to this key combo at startup.
Many times entering the bootloader is not a problem though. The routine does cause the phone to go there. And, I can get it there by other means. Just not via the boot up sequence. This tells me there is something very different about these models....
I tried starting and flashing directly from the bootloader (showing USB), and the phone got to show a percentage field (the one when you are flashing) but same here, is constantly at 0% until the flashing utility times out and tells me to reboot my phone and guides me through steps if it has been semi-bricked (bootloader is the volume down + softreset, right?)
I bought my phone in the first shipment to Sweden, it's not locked to any company, bought it without subscription
Else I just flashed it up to latest ROM from htc.com (still no success with HardSPL ) to 2.03.413.2 SVE (02/06/09)
Radio: 1.09.25.23
Version: 52.51.25.26H
ninjaedit: (In the four-colored bootloader thing it says DIAM100 64M SPL-2.03.0000 MicroP-Diam (LED) v11)
Tell me if you need any other info :]
Here's another indication that the new phones are different. I've copied a DIAMIMG.nbh file to both a flash card inside the phone, and to it's internal memory. (sorry, but the thread on that location is confusing on what memory. I assume like most phones of the past that it's supposed to be the flash card, but "internal memory" is not a flash card.) But, the loader screen always responds with "no image file" when it's called up. So, is there a different name expected now?

Hi uhm, was that answer aimed for me or to scottwilkins?
If it was for me, is it possible to flash the mobile directly from the memory-card (or internal flash card)? Else if you mean the "manual make-the-screen-black-and-go-to-bootloader" my screen just goes blank, as when you do it with the RUU, and just stops there. Also seems like it looses the connection via USB doing so too. And flashing through the bootloader directly (volume down at softreset) shows the progressbar on the phone, but steadily at 0% (when trying to flash).
search and download
a) SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe (Desktopprogram)
b) EnterBootloader.exe (ATTENTION: it must be that for diamond, normaly find by flashing-tools)
connect with active sync and copy EnterBootloader.exe to pda-root.
start SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe on desktop and follow all but reset (DONT RESET)
start EnterBootloader.exe on pda
if bootloader-Mode and USB-Label than start flashing
wait for response

That program makes the Fuze screen just turn black and do nothing. Cool, huh
Seems that the newer stock ROMS might be blocking something... hmmmm....
Well, crap!
I just figure out where my whole problem is...
The Fuze (my phone) = The Raphael
NOT the Diamond.
I just scrolled down the forum list, saw a phone that looked like mine and went there. DOH!
I feel like a total dumb-ass.
If I'd scrolled just a bit farther down the XDA forum, then I'd seen the Raphael phone.
Holy Cow! Go ahead, say it, I deserve it...
Thanks for all the help otherwise. It was a learning experience for me....

hi,
i think, you have the wrong bootloader.
i find this and try it by me self. this brings your fone definitly to bootloader.
than you can start manualy the hard spl by normal description way.

Thanks, but that file takes me into the bootloader, and when I start flashing the percentage is still at 0% until the software times out. Same as before, just the usual "going-into-the-bootloader".

I started this thread for my dumbass because I didn't want to clutter up all the other threads that were trying to give real information.
I've even bothered a few of the more knowledgeable people on the forum but I'm sure they have better things to do than explain something they've probably explained a bizzilion times...
Okay, here's what I've got.
My Diamond has 1.37 ROM on it... the last one available directly from HTC.
I've read so freakin' much on here, my head is spinning. My understanding is with each new cooked ROM, you need an spl.
I downloaded two copies of ROM's. One is 1.93 from HTC Europe. I thought if this was a factory ROM, I wouldn't need to install an spl because it would be built in. I get an incompatible message.
I then d/l'd Dutty's new 1.93 cooked ROM. (version 1.3)
Before I tried to install it, I d/l'd 1.24 SPL.
This is where I get fcuked up apparently. Here's what I did....
-I made a folder on the desktop.
-I downloaded 1.24 and extracted the files to the folder I just made.
-I connected my phone and established communication.
-I doubleclicked on "diamond-sspl.bat" file so it would install the spl new spl
-A windows ms-prompt box comes up and you space-bar down through the prompts.
-On the Diamond's screen, a "continue" dialog box comes up. When I click on it, the screen goes black. (phone shuts off)
I disconnect the USB cable, pull the battery and start the phone up.
I guess this is where I'm lost... doesn't this mean I'm ready to install the new ROM? If I hold the volume button down and reboot the phone, it shows version 1.37 spl.
Like I said, I didn't want to clutter up useful threads, for newbies such as myself, it seems the more you read, the more complicated it becomes (when in reality it isn't)
Can someone please clue me in to my stupidity. I know you all answered these questions before but I am literally SICK of reading. I spent 3 hours last night and 7 hours today messing with this. I really do have a life but this phone has me messed up.
Just for the record, I tried the other spl (1.23 and 1.34, etc, etc) to no avail.
Help?
Thanks so much,
Mark

The black screen doesn't mean the phone shuts off, don't disconnect it and let the process continue.

Okay, the "black screen" has been on since I responded to your post. The lights on the phone are off, am I missing something?
I don't think the phone is doing anything, I think it's off.

How are dfar are you with the hardspl flashing, can u soft reset and connect to activesync, if yes just re-do the process, black screen like what pof said its a part of the process, just run the ruu application and beging flashing thehardspl,
Anyone else?
When I click on continue on the screen, am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Mark
When you have the black screen, start the RUU and flash HardSPL... that's it.

When the screen turns black (which has been off for about 5 minutes now), I can do a soft reset.
Okay, so now I go into the folder I created on my desktop and doubleclick on what? The RUU 1.000.00.00 file or the your 1.3 version upgrade?
In either case, when I do, the tri-color screen comes on for a second and the screen goes to gray with a progress bar sitting on 0%.
(FWIW, when the tricolor bar comes up, it shows 1.37 as the spl) I thought the whole reason I double clicked on the .bat file was to install the 1.24 spl.
?

I did the RUU install with the screen black and it shows it was successful. I'm SO embarassed.
Okay, so all I've done at this point is install 1.24 spl. Now I can install 1.93, correct?
Geesh, what a moron.

Yes, go for it. Connect via activesync and run the DiamondRUU you extracted from the 1.93 download, the rest is automatic.
So...I've been using an older version of Dutty's ROM, but I haven't updated in a few weeks.
Tonight, out of nowhere, my phone will now only show a screen saying:
"This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers.
To obtain a newer release or further information, please revisit the web site that you used to obtain your current beta release."
Strange...
I tried downloading the most recent version of Dutty's rom and loading it, but the computer says "Cannot connect to your PDA phone..."
What's going on here!?
I have tried resetting the phone via the reset button (under the stylus), and I have tried restarting the phone via soft/hard reset, but nothing works!
Everytime my phone turns on, it goes immediately to this white page saying the "This concludes the beta test of this software release..."
How can I make my Diamond work again?!?
Please help!
i am having the same problem tonight too
i did a hard rest.. didnt fix it.. plus i lost all the stuff i had on there.. but it's ok
i heard u need to reflash it or something but i donno the full detail.. hope someone here can help us... thanks
step by step instruction would be great
I think you must put your diamond in "bootloader mode". and you will reflash your phone with a new rom, or another rom...
Booloader mode (usb) = Volume down + reset
In the screen (down) = serial, and if you connect with usb you can see "usb" and now you can reflash!
how can i reflash? i'm VERY new with this smartphone stuff my first smartphone so i donno a lot of stuff..
does it need HSPL 1.24? cause if it does i cant seem to run DiamondCustomRUU after my phone went black screen
i will try the "bootloader" mode, but i hope it works! i will post results a.s.a.p.!
Same for me on Dutty 2.3, but did hard reset and let phone set up. Do NOT change the date, I left mine as September, and phone will continue to set up and start. Now what I need to know is if I flash with latest rom will that allow me to set current date?

You put "volume down" and, in same time, you put "reset" (you hold these 3 seconds) => and you enter in bootloader, then you connect your diamond to USB and launch installation...
i think you don't need a HSPL if you want flash with the same rom... but you may use another HSPL for another rom...
OK - so i just started in Bootloader mode as suggested...
after that, i plugged it in to my computer vis USB.
then, i opened the most recent rom updater (supplied by dutty...see the thread in this forum).
it is currently updating, and everythign is looking good.
so, why do you have an experation on your rom's dutty??? what's up with that?!?
thanks fabe
but let say i want to flash the SwithBL Rom.. it's not the one i used b4.. do i still need HSPL? if yes how do i install so i dont get the black screen and it actually works?

Hi everyone well I'm new to the flashing and dont want to jump any steps as this could possible brick my phone...
I've been having some problems with flashing as i cant find a step by step to flashing my HTC TP2. I've managed to do the RhodiumW Hard-SPL package but after trying to flash to some custom RUU's the installation seems to go fine its not until the phone first boots up, that's when the phone just hangs on the HTC splash screen
From there i cant do anything other then boot up to the tricolor bootloader screen and re-install the original 2.04.651.4 update!
can someone tell me what im missing to be able to flash my HTC correctly, or at least point me in the right direction?
Thank you in advance!!!

alright so i was able to install they mightyrom on my phone that went well my phone didnt freeze and everything started the way it should have.
but does that mean i can now flash my phone to other for example "leo cell" or Bxsteez Rhodium" if not how do i get to that point cuz when ever i flas them to they just freese on the white splash screen with the HTC logo in green letters!!
Thanks!
If you have installed Hard SPL then use the sd card method.
1. Format the sd card FAT32 ( they come FAT default) and copy the rom's .nbh file onto it. Rename to Rhodimg.nbh .
2. Insert sd card back into powered off Rhodium. Go into bootloader by pushing down volume and power.
3. If you did it properly and Hard SPL is on your phone then it should say to press power to update os...
If you aren't sure if you have Hard SPL then go to bootloader without the sd card in there, it should say SPL - 0.85.Olinex if you have Hard SPL, anything else won't register the flash file.
Cheers...
OK I was able to update to Winmo 6.5 with no issues....but here is my questions with regards to the Rhodium_W Hard-SPL
I was attempting to run it and it never gets pass 0%...In reading the details of the install instructions it reads
"the device needs to be connected to Activesync or WMDC via USB cable. and it must not be in Flight/Airplane mode (i.e. the phone part should be on).
3) internet access is required as the program checks online for updates and for the license."

I think you should ask this in the hard spl thread in the cmda section...That is the place for those questions Assuming that you have a cdma phone because you did not mention it. Otherwise check the hard spl thread in the gsm section.

Did you try flashing the stock ROM? It's always a good idea to try that if you think there's no hope. It flashes everything.
Also, did you try task29?

Try Installing This Cab On Your Phone --> http://hpcmonex.net/roms/enablerapinew.cab Then Run HardSpl Again.
kk thank you, i will try. will post results as soon as i get them. Thanks again. kudos to you!
If your phone does not have the HardSPL on it, and it will not boot properly, you need to get it back into bootloader mode, wait for 'USB' to appear on the screen, and flash the stock ROM, then try again with the HardSPL program.
EDIT: To see what version of Rhodium you have, remove your battery and look at the sticker under there on the phone. you should see something like RHOD100, RHOD200, RHOD300, RHOD400, or RHOD500. RHOD100-300 is GSM. RHOD400 & 500 is CDMA. Make sure you flash the correct ROMs, radios, and HSPL for your device or you run the risk of bricking it.
Hello everyone!
I'm new at these forums, so excuse me if I'm being a "noob". I've searched all over the forums and found some instructions for my problem, but none of them helped.
My story is:
I have a T-Mobile MDA III device (I think it's also called HTC BlueAngel). It had the stock ROM, without any modifications. It was WM2003 I suppose.
I wanted to upgrade it to WM6, using this. In that thread it was recommended to use the updater given there, so I downloaded everything and tried to flash. After about 30 seconds of verifying information on the PDA, I got to a screen where it was supposed to say From and To version numbers, but everything was blank. I also have successfully flashed a HTC Trinity P3600 and those fields were blank there too, so I thought it's OK and pressed Continue. The program started to process, but after a while it said isn't designed for my device. I have tried numerous ROMs and RUUs to update it, but all of them gave some sort of error, some said "Congratulations, update complete" even if it didn't do anything.
The problem is, that my PDA is now stuck at the bootloader (?) screen. The backlight is off, the top of the screen says Serial (USB when cradled) and on the bottom I can see a version number (v2.05). I have read about key combinations (Camera, power, reset, record, etc) which are used to exit this state, but none of them worked. If I cradle my device, Windows (Windows 7, 64bit) recognizes the device as "Microsoft USB Sync", but WMDC doesn't see my device at all. On the forums I've read that in this state the device allows ROM updating, but I haven't found anything that could work, and the RUUs don't seem to recognize my device.
So if anyone has a ROM and updater that can work with this device, please link it to me, it's very important. I don't want to lose my PDA. If you haven't got a WM6 ROM, it can be even WM5, or even the stock ROM of this device, I just want to somehow revive it. Really, any ROM will do, just give me the proper updater and ROM. Or if you think the ROM wasn't erased from the device, please help me getting back to it.

Thanks, I've downloaded the PDFs and tried to follow the steps, but there were some problems.
The first strange thing I noticed was that the driver said it was already installed to my computer. I think that's not a problem, but still worthy to mention.
I have completed the driver installation, so I moved on to the ExtROM tutorial. Unfortunately this step failed completely, because it needs a working BA, and as I've said I'm stuck on the bootloader screen. Also I've tried to reflash the WM2003 that was in the tutorial, but it said that the Updater is not designed for my device. So I moved on to the final step, flashing - I downloaded the Updater and tried to flash the WM2003 you provided. I kept pressing Continue - but after getting to the last page, and pressing Continue for the last time, after about 10 seconds, the updater said Congratulations! The ROM have been updated successfully. But that was just a message, my BA acted like nothing happened. I'm still in the Bootloader and can't do anything. What am I doing wrong?

Can't you exit bootloader screen by simultaneously pressing power and reset?
Did you disable USB-Connection in activesync? Is important to do.
If update runs till "congratulations" in very short time (update usually takes about 10 minutes - estimated ), it seems like updater didn't see the nk.nbf file, which should be 32.769KB.
Please don't throw bricked phones at me, but- is the file unzipped? (note: i don't mean opened)
And: though d-two has given you the drivers for Win7 (and he's the one you can really trust he's got the right stuff) you may just try
another PC. Many people have trouble when trying to update with Win7. I still use XP.

If I press power and reset simultaneously, the screen goes dead for a second, then bootloader comes up again.
Tried disabling USB connection in WMDC (No activesync for Win 7), it changed nothing.
The nk.nbf is EXACTLY 32.769KB, so I don't know why it won't see it. With some versions it sees it but gives me an error 150 (RUU not designed for this device).
If by unzipped you mean extracted, yes, all the files (EnterBL.EXE, nk.nbf, MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe, etc.) are extracted to a folder, it looks the same as in D-Two's tutorial.
Unfortunately I don't have an XP PC. Will using a Vista laptop do any better, or should I use some kind of emulator of XP and update from there? If so, can you link me to one of those?
Sh*t.
Take out the battery for at least three days.
Then retry.
I lately had an VPA3 revived by this.
Always stuck in first step of bootscreen, already wanted to abandon it,
then after some days retried just out of some mood.
Worked.
XP emulator may be a good idea, but i'd have to google it the same way like you.
Because of my Siemens phones i haven't yet left original XP.

he is not stuck at the 4 color screen he stuck in the bootloader mode..
If the bootloader mode active with software is he not wakeup after 3 days without battery or something else...
the BLENTER.EXE erase at adress 0x40000 the first 4 bytes and this will active the bootloader mode!!!
you must install the driver like in the PDF!!!
and than you can flash it with any rom!!
if you have install the driver correct it must like this...
sorry for my bad english

No problem about your english, mine isn't perfect too
I realized what is the problem. When installing the driver manually, it says that the driver is not signed, and therefore I can't install it. I do everything the same as you did, but I fail at this step. I can't get it to install. Any solutions for this? :\ I'm starting to worry about this.

Found this option and I could install the driver You sent to me.
But the RUU still doesn't see my device. It acts the same as I was running it without my device.
