Hi all,
I have 1.40 Olinex HSPL (Official ROM & Radio), this version prevents me from upgrading to the newest Official ROM. It reaches 100% and then shows 270 error and stuck on bootloader no matter what i do, to bring it back again i need to reflash with the old ROM.
I tried to flash the Original SPL (all versions), didn't work (the flash goes well, but the SPL stays 1.40 Olinex), I tried to flash it to a different HSPL (all versions too), still no go...
What should i do ?
Thanks

1.40 Hard spl can not be overwritten as it's protected. You need to search for an app called Jump SPL. This utility will allow you to switch Hard SPL's.

Unpack the attached archive. Connect your device to activesync and run the batch file (diamond-sspl.bat), press enter twice to copy the needed files to your diamond, press enter again and the file jumpspl will start on your device. Press the button on your device, which appears. Now your screen will turn black. Last step is to run your desired SPL. Done
Thanks it worked!

Ok, talk about it here.
It just installed over my Olipro SPL and before I knew it, it said INVALID VENDOR ID.
Now I can't update to WM6 because of my SPL that is CID locked. I am however able to install an original ROM.
Questions (yet to be answered):
1) Is it possible to run SSPL?
2) Are we able to get Hard-SPL on it again.
If not;
3) Are we able to write a new SSPL that can hack this bootloader.
I don't even know whether it is locked, but I assume they did find out about our SSPL and Hard-SPL.
well i just flashed back to pdaviet's rom from the new WM6 (nothing very impressive about it). I just let the updater push sspl to my phone and it worked. haven't tried loading hard-spl yet.
After flashing to an original rom were you then able to update to WM6?
OK, When I got back in to WM5 i was able to get into SSPL again. It shows SPL-1.07.ds
But we will have to make sure we can rewrite it. I can't test it now, have to go to work. I will check it this afternoon.
OK, i think essentially what this new IPL/SPL does it overwrite your existing, restore any CID locks and vendor ID's as well.
If you have a Dopod branded device from the areas this release is for, you'll have no issues.
I was able to easily update using this rom, then run Olipro's hard SPL after to return to 1.20 Hard SPL
if you unpack D810_SEA_WM6_Upgrade_20070709.exe or RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.00.707.16_6275_1.46.30.11_108_Ship.exe with winrar you will see a SPL.nhb file that is the one thats being installed just delete it

You need SuperCid and SSPL. sorry my engish.
I had the same issue stuck at 28% - I fell back to the last V5 WWE rom and run SSPL (latest Trin) before update to V6 again.

You need NEW supercid. Я сам с этими проблемами столкнулся. i dont know this for english.
I had OliPro SPl befor upgrading and have upgraded without any problem. Just run RUU and followed instructions.
I have an idea.
1. RUU flashed SPL 3.03 (so at that moment my phone became cid locked)
2.Probably my phone have the same cid as that ANZ rom. That's why i had no problems.
So all your problems are in new SPL and new logic for flashing device.
for flash new rom you should
1. unpack nbh file
2. use nbhgen to create new nbh with OS/RADIO/EXTROM/IPL only. WITHOUT SPL
3. use SSPL or hardSPL for flash this new nbh
4. enjoy
OK Guys,
This is a placeholder for Hard-SPL Dev edition - recommended for ROM Cookers and Developers only.
it's the same as the other except it doesn't require signing and blocks overwriting.
------------------
Done, see next post.
[size=+2]NOTE: This is NOT a SIM unlocker - it also doesn't unlock Security for other radios. if you need that, GO HERE[/size]
here's unsigned version of Hard-SPL - what you've been waiting for!
[size=+1]ok, here it is now as I said the wait would be max 2 weeks in the *worst* case. well the case is much better than that [/size]
this is only for people who know what they are doing!!! newbies who aren't sure what roms to flash, should go with the signed version of hardSPL here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400402
Installation Instructions are the same:
1) Download, extract to an empty folder.
2) Run RomUpdateUtility.exe, Have Phone Synced with PC in Windows Mobile
3) follow steps, check device for prompts after PC shows loading bar. it should go to black screen now.
4) SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done.
5) to confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode (volume down + reset, i.e. press volume down button and reset then keep holding the volume down key until you see tricolour screen) and verify the screen shows 1.40.OliNex.
note: you will not see the SPL version during normal boot, that is the OS version, not SPL!
INSTALLING THIS WILL HARD-RESET THE DEVICE
TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS:
- read the instructions.
- read the instructions.
- read the instructions.
- Anyone having problems with the device entering SSPL automatically (your device doesn't even go to black screen), please copy SSPLManual.exe to the device and run it. then once the screen is black, run RUU manually (you run the RUU on the PC, if it isn't obvious).
- if you get connection error in RUU after the device goes to black screen, then try a different USB port, also do not use USB hub, you can also try rebooting your PC, and can try using another PC. read the thread for even more tips that I don't remember now. also you can try unticking advanced network functionality in start menu / settings / connections / usbtopc applet.
- if SSPL-Manual.exe or enterbootloader.exe fails to run (says missing component or similar), try a hard reset of the device.
- CDMA (Sprint or Telus) diamonds need my other hardspl:, head over to: CDMA (not GSM) diamond hardspl - ONLY use this if your diamond does not use GSM protocol for radio!!! otherwise you will brick the device!!!
NOTE: this has overwrite protection, so don't try flashing another SPL using HardSPL.
if someone needs to revert to stock SPL for warranty reasons, we will soon post a stock SPL downgrade package.
enjoy!
UPDATE 1: 1.37 Hard-SPL
for those who need 1.37 due to some screen fuzziness issues on some newer diamonds, here it is with hardspl patches:
- Developer Edition: can flash unsigned code. Version: 1.37.OliNex
- Signed Edition: can only flash preapproved signed code. Version: 1.38.OliNex
please see Attachment below for Developer Edition!!
for Signed Edition, see the signed HardSPL thread of course.
I recommend you flash the original HardSPL, as that one is MFG. only flash the 1.37 if you experience the fuzzy display issue.
UPDATE 2: 1.93 Hard-SPL
if someone's diamond came with 1.93 SPL originally, maybe this HardSPL based on 1.93 will work better than the olders. I have a report that someone has black screen with older SPL's.
but even if your diamond didn't come with 1.93 stock, but 1.37 doesn't fix screen problems (fuzzy screen, flickering, etc.), it is recommended to try this 1.93 HardSPL.
if your diamond works fine with original HardSPL, no need to flash this one.
Version: 1.93.OliNex
IMPORTANT: all in all, I recommend you flash the original HardSPL, as that one is MFG and easier to deal with if there is some problem. only flash the 1.37 or 1.93 if you have screen issues.
if it was some other version and you still have issues after trying 1.37 and 1.93, then let us know in this thread.
STOCK SPL's: to return to stock SPL for warranty reasons: read post #39 in this thread!!!
aborts about 588kb into the download for me.

What is the difference between signed and unsigned spl?
Is this working when connecting the Diamond to Vista? I get an app CLOSE/DEBUG exception when I try to run it on Vista (x64). My diamond is the Asia 1.34 version.
Does it work?
Hi Olipro,
Does this one work equally well for SPL 1.23 and 1.34/1.35? There were some discussion about 1.34 locking up the Diamonds with now ways of going back to 1.23? Please advise,

It means you can only install signed ROM's, i.e ones form HTC, Carriers, or ones signed by Olinex and the other people in Elite Team. And they won't sign ranodm crap, so gives you safety- if it's signed, it's ok to flash it.
Unsigned means you can install any random ROM you like, cook your own easily and install it without any fuss.

Hi,
My Diamond has no response on the screen, so I think I need to return to factory for repairing. However I have difficulties in falling back to stock ROM and SPL.
From the Wiki:

I can't flash my ROM to latest HK WWE CSL ROM (2.03) as it just stopped at 0%. I'm using SPL-1.30.OliNex.
Questions:
0) Why? Any step I've missed? I've just copied the .NBH from HTC official ROM download. Should I get the .NBH from the Wiki instead?
1) Should I flash to v1.93 (the very beginning of the ROM)?
2) Must the RADIO be flashed back as well? or the above Stock ROM has included the RADIO already?
3) Anyone can give me a reference on the step-by-step in details...
Thanks!
Please help...

If the latest was the offical from the site then you could use that - as you are having issues flashing this with 1.30 HSPL, I would suggest updating that to 1.40

Re Q3, so do you mean if I extracted the stock NBH, it's only OS but not including RADIO? If so, I will get the RADIO from wiki page later. Would you please clarify for me?
After your information, I think the steps in Wiki are clear. Thanks.
If this is HK ROM is the one you have downloaded from HTC PAGE then it has a radio included
Since my Diamond is totally malfunction in the touch screen, I can't response to all the confirmation & prompts...
I've failed to install Stock ROM and tried your recommendation on upgrading to HSPL 1.40. There was a confirmation on running the program in my Diamond and I can't press YES and now my diamond is just like bricked.
I've also tried pressing VOL DOWN + Reset to connect the Diamond via USB. The ROM Update Utility has "successfully" update the HSPL, but actually when I hard reset it and found it's still running 1.30... Can I just use this approach to fallback to Factory status??
Anyone has good idea on how to fallback to Factory Stock ROM, RADIO and SPL, provided that my screen has totally no response to me?
PLEASE...PLEASE...PLEASE help.
You will not be able to update olipros Hard SPL in bootloader mode as the SPL is protected and the 1.30 will prevent this although show its been done.
What you will need to do then is just load a 1.93 ROM from boot loader. the were some in that link i posted earlier. as to reverting to the default SPL - you may be luck not to need the screen for any confirmation. but running a new SPL to overwrite Oli's you will need to use windows and the RRU
I've tried to load 1.93 ROM to my diamond but failed on OliNex 1.30. The link in modmydiamond.info on OliNex 1.40 Signed seems not correct, as it's still 1.30 after flashed. I've then flashed UNSIGNED 1.40 OliNex SPL (also downloaded from modmydiamond.info) and now flashing the 1.93 ROM in progress from bootloader.
I will flash the Stock SPL through the Bootloader after that...I hope I can successfully fallback and get it repair...
Last question (I hope), the stock SPL should be 1.37 so I want to confirm whether it can boot 1.93 ROM.
Thanks a lot!
Because these Unsigned HARD SPL 's are write protected.....you will fail all the time. Not sure if stock SPL can undue the write protection but if you still get stuck after you try then in order to bypass write protection I know Jump SPL allows for this.

That ROM had a different boot image - so you need to replace that by flashing another splash .NBH file using RUU.
Original splash can be found HERE
and if needed CUSTOM RUU HERE
Just un-zip these and put the splash file in the same folder as the Custom RUU and run the RUU - the flash should take a few seconds and viola - bye bye Diamond project splash.

As said before; you should be able to successfully run the stock SPL using RUU - if you are trying this via bootloader it will not work.
Which is the original SPL?? 1.23, 1.34 or 1.37? I do recall taking a picture of the original SPL when i 1st got the Diamond for days like that but i just can't find it now

I've tried to connect to ActiveSync successfully although the Initial Setup wizard on my Diamond. I've then run the RUU from RUU-SSPL-withoutNBH.zip and put the stock SPL .NBH file into the extracted directory. It can retrieve my device info, and when I confirm the update of ROM, after 3-5 sec it said about connection failure. I can browse the Internal Storage at the moment yet.
I've then tried similar thing using the Custom RUU inside the package diamond-hspl-1.34.zip. This time I can see 100% update. When I press VolDown and reset, the SPL is still v1.40 ONliEx.
What's wrong with my procedures above?

I know you guys most be tired of this but im still a lil confused about all this since i have searched around and i have still to know how to return the stock SPL...now i know theres alot of post that show how but what i need to do is find out one which i dont have to use my phone:
What i mean is....i dont have to copy SSManual.bat to my fun and run it from my phone...because i have to return my phone to HTC for warranty reasons but i cannot get passed the align screen configuration at boot since my touch is messed up (p.s. i can still flash and active sync)...
what i need to know is a way to return to the stock SPL without using the phone (except for Active Sync)...
p.s. if i have the ASIA WWE HK ROM on the SPL would be 1.34 or 1.93?
thank you!!
[SOLVED]
Basically, thanks to the ppl in this thread for helping.....since i couldnt get passed my align screen cause of hardware problems with my screen i couldnt access the sspl-manual in order to revert to stock spl so what i did is i flash my phone with Dia duit 1.4 which has no welcome screen or align screen so i could go thru to the phone then performed the sspl manual and reverted to the 1.93 spl (my version)and afterwards i flash my phone with the Asia HTC wwe orginal romhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410720 ......i know ure supposed to first flash orginal rom and then the stock spl but i took a chance and it worked...THANKS u guys keep up the good work and now its up to HTC to fix my hardware....Hoping its on warranty
By the way right now im on Olinex 1.40
thank you again!!!
can't you install the hardspl through bootloader mode?
Unfortunately no, everytime i do either i get an error [202] or it goes straight to 100% but then when i check with the vol - and reset button it shows olinex 1.40

Try to install a rom which don't have to align the screen. then you copy the file you wants from the phone.

hi
i had your problem and has olinex 1.40 anld like to restore hard spl
first you should install original rom on your device
then install original hard spl ( i try it )

then hard spl with it (copy sspl manual om your device run it then restart you device run it again then connect it to pc and run ruu

Dear All,
this time, I have a problem and need your help, please.
I just bought a new (used, but not by me ) HTC Touch Diamond. Hard-SPL (1.37 from whoever) was installed.
First MTTY'ed the device - with success (set 14 0, task 29, task 8)
Wanted to install OliNex 1.40 first
Started ROM-Update, everything went fine, screen of Diamond changed into "bar display" - but stays there with 0%
Tried several flashes (OliNex, ROM, Radio - everything the same)
Does anybody have a hint for me what to do? Identifier seems ok, DIAM100 is shown in intial bootloader screen (three color-screen)
I appreciate any hint.
With kind regards from Switzerland - Christoph
Radio
Downgrade your radio to one below 1.02.XXX before flashing the unlocked radio
Full instructions to unlock your diamond are here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=749201
Once you have done this, you can flash any ROM you like
Dear Dave,
thank you very much for your support.
Unfortunately it didn't help but showed everytime the same picture - stuck in the bar at 0% and doesn't do anything.
I tried STEP 1, STEP 2 and downgrading to radio 1.00.25.05 (but actually I don't know which is actually installed, as the Diamond never reaches the Touch Diamond page with ROM & HW Info, it stucks in the Touch Diamond page with no information at all, if started not in Bootloader mode)
It seems to me that the bootloader itself could be corrupted or the model number (shows DIAM100 in Bootloader) is somewhat corrupted, as I know that the internal storage consists of more digits (like DIAM10000 or so) - and a way to fix it with MTTY? But I can't find a description of the MTTY tasks of the Diamond.
Any more Idea?
Thank you Dave, and all the others who read and think, in advance.

Can you get into Bootloader mode by holding down
Volume down button + Back button (Bottom right button) + Press reset with the pen
Then keep pressed the first two buttons and let go of reset, keep hold of the first two buttons until it reaches the bootloader mode
If you can do this, then reboot and put the radio onto the storage card (4GB one) and enter bootloader mode, then folllow instructions on that screen to flash the radio, and you can do the same for the rom
It sounds to me like maybe you have not managed to flash the HardSPL properly
Hi Dave!
Thanks for your quick reaction.
Yes, I can anter bootloader mode. But nothing more. Flash is not possible. Hard-SPL was the first thing I tried to flash but it also remained at 0%
How can I put files on the internal storage card from within bootloader mode? (Phone is not booting, ONLY bootloader mode is accessible...) I never encountered this before...
But I can reach the phone with MTTY.. can I access the storage card through this?

Have your tried different HardSPL versions ?
Im not sure what is wrong... if you are in Bootloader mode, and the USB drivers are installed and you have activesync running on the PC it should update no problem
I would make sure all the above is true, and attempt different HardSPLs
I think that is the issue as you wont be able to flash an unlocked radio or custom rom without HardSPL being flashed first
Here is another version you could try
http://selfmod.net/how-to-hard-spl-a-htc-diamond/
EDIT - And I dont know if there is a way to access the storage card from MTTY or bootloader, my guess is that you wont be able to
Also, this is a GSM Diamond right ? Not a CDMA ? (UK Networks are GSM)
CDMA flash is here

Hi Dave!
Yes, it's GSM. Thanks for your help and the links provided - it didn't help.
I tried various Hard-SPLs: OliNex 1.20, 1.30, 1.37, 1.40 and 1.93 (developers)
Result - all the same: standstill at 0%
I've seen in MTTY that I have an "upload" menu item - but need there the start address and command line for Diamond plus to know what it is meant for, I will try to find out... and if there is some new know-how out of this, I will post it here, in order that future GENERATIONS may find it *laugh*
Dave? THANKS!
Kindest regards from Switzerland - Christoph

Ok, lol Another possible !
Maybe your friend flashed a Signed HardSPL which means you can only flash Signed radios and roms until you flash another unsigned HardSPL
If the Radio you are trying to downgrade to is unsigned that could explain the issue... try and find a Signed radio below version 1.02.XXX and try to flash that, then try to flash to another Unsigned HardSPL, if the radio flash goes ok.

Update stops at 0%
Short answer: You're running the normal HardSPL and you're trying to flash an unsigned (not signed by olinex) ROM. You need the developer version which fixes the 0% issue. Link is at the bottom of this post. Read on to understand the difference between Standard/Developer Edition!
Long answer: First you need to understand that there are two definitions of "signed". HTC and the mobile operators sign ROMs so that the RUU flash utility allows them to be flashed. Usually this is what the word "signed" in the filename means.
Then there is another definition of signed: The developers of HardSPL introduced their own signing process. They want to ensure that people flashing cooked ROMs can rely on a certain quality standard. The normal version of HardSPL will only allow ROMs signed by OliNex to be flashed. If the ROM you are about to flash is signed, it will say so in the thread you got it from. If it isn't signed, you will need the developer version of HardSPL. That one will allow any ROM to be flashed. Get it at the bottom of this posting.
A note on this: The signing process by olinex makes sure that the ROM you're about to flash won't brick your device. It doesn't mean all other ROMs are necessarily evil.

This is the answer. I used to have the same problem because when I bought my diamond I thought everything runs the same as the TyTN but ...
So to cut this story short, almost 90% of the 0% bar situations are because U R not using signed roms. However if Ya want to then use the unsigned HardSPL.
Hi Dave & Nazgul,
it seems that my case belonst to the non-90%
Of course I tried all this, but I have THREE diamonds - two were branded by the Swiss Swisscom (this is, in fact, the same image as the German Vodafone branding), one was the original HTC version
I'm flashing Diamonds since two years though.
My fault this time was, that I THOUGHT, this new one were HardSPL'ed, but it wasn't - and formatted the device using MTTY without Hard-SPL.
After that I had the above mentioned situation.
NO Hard-SPL was flashable - as written above - also noth the unsigned developer 1.93 edition - it always remained at 0%
I managed in the meantime to flash the original Vodafone/Swisscom ROM. So I have back the device in the official configuration (HTC Swisscom 1.97 package http://www.swisscom-mobile.ch/scm/d...pa=0x0x147x18x0x0x0x0x0&odg=SoftwareAndManual)
But - this uses Radio 1.08.xxx and I would like to downgrade because I think, Dave's hint above to use a radio before 1.02.xxx would be worth a try.
BUT - I STILL can't flash anything. Neither ANY Hard-SPL nor any Radio version nor any ROM.
The bar remains at 0%
I tried to find the original (first edition) of the Swisscom ROM Package, which used the Radio 1.00.25.05 - and then to try Dave's proposed steps.. but I can't find it anymore - all you can find is the "latest" package...
So I would still appreciate any help to be able to flash. Ok, now at least, I have a usable phone... but... I wanted to use it (as the other two) for ROM development testing, so who wants to have a PHONE!?!?
Kind regards from Switzerland - Christoph
Here is your radios
Sorry for the short post, I have a really bad hangover lol
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407956
Morn' Dave!
I tried them all - none of them was flashable... same 0%-bar.
I thought of having the V 1.00 complete official Swisscom-Pack and as part of it, the radio 1.00.25.05, which is included. Seems to me, that the c(complete) official ROM pack is flashable.
THEN I could re-try to flash Hard-SPL (with then installed radio below 1.02.xxx)
Hangover? What's this?

YEa that might work, it is almost certain the issue is the HARDSpl being either not flashed, or flashed with a signed version
Good luck !!
And the hangover is nearly gone... I cured yesterdays with more alcohol lol
Have you tried these UNSIGNED dev HARDspls ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400950
Hi Dave - GOT IT, solved
The "secret" was to flash noit from withi boot loader but from within Win Mobile with ActiveSync/Windows Device Center connected.
Then say "Yes" when "enterbootloader.exe" was asked to be installed/invoked.
Then the Device rebooted, flashed Hrd-SPL 1.40 correctly - and everything else onwards went fine.
Thanks a lot for your assitance, Dave and others.
Kind regards from Switzerland - Christoph
Ah.. I thought you were already using the Activesync and CustomRUU to flash it with !
Yes, the ROMs and Radios can be flashed from the storage card, but the Hard SPL needs to be done from Activesync / CUstomRUU
Pleased you got it working anyway
