Unable to install Haard SPL (OSX+Parallels+Vista Ultimate)

Hi,
I tried many times to install the hard spl version 1.34 on my new Diamond, but I have always the same problem:
- the program start
-it run since the boot loader mode appear on the screen
-then appear the progress bar and then ..... NOTHING.
I'm not new to flash and add new software, infact before the Diamond I had a Trinity flahed many and many times (Kaiser, Elegance Edition, etc....).
What can I do to solve the problem ? Really I don't undestand.
Please If someone has solved the problem post the solution.
Thank's

Post your SPL upgrade procedure, step by step.
We'll try to see where you might've gone wrong.
Did you sync your diam with active sync?
Did you try the spl-manual?

Maybe it is also good to give a link to the post you got the SPL from, so we know exactly which version you have (signed/unsigned).

I could not do it on my macbook pro either. IN teh end I resorted to boot camp and it worked fine

The procedure I made is still the same.
1. connect to activesync
2. start the exe
3. the screen of the diamond star the boot loader mode
4. appear the progress bar both in the pc screen and the diamond screen
5. the procedure stops and no data are transferred to the diamond
I tried all the three version of hard spl but the problem is still present.
The version of hard spl (from 1.24 to 1.34) is the one you can find in the first page of the forum.... belive me I did it many times in the past and I read very well the procedure suggested in the post.
However I will try to use boot camp.
Thank' s to everibody .

I think I read somewhere (but have not tried), do a hard reset, and when the screen that says Tap to begin using your device pops up, start attempting to flash from there.
But they "should" flash from the bootloader screen.

I had exactly the same problem. Tried all the tricks to go back to the previous ROM. I also tried boog321's hard reset idea, but it just puts you back into the bootloader. HOWEVER, when I then went through the screen alignment process (just for fun), lo! it works!

The problem is that i can`t get inside windows anymore. It stays at the screen 3 seconds after power up. Is there a way to hardware reset?

Just flash a different rom dude!! probably a expired beta rom.

i have tried to falsh 4 differnt ROM`s. It makes 2% and says rom orrupter or something.

Tried installing via MicroSD card? I installed the same ROM a while back...

Hey. I just re-flashed right now after I installed an expired beta by mistake.
Start with the Hermes connected USB, showing the splash out of luck screen.
1. Hold both Power and the ok button on the left and then RESET with the stylus. It should go in tri-color mode
2. Flash a known good ROM
Good luck!

Bro just flash your ppc using other ROM (flash it in bootloader mode) when its in the hermes rom upgrade tap the (force using safe SSPL) it will do the trick.

I already said i did that.
After 1% it stopped and says : ERROR 270. UPDATE ERRROR: The image file is corrupted please check your update utility.
I have done this with 5 roms now.
Will try microsd install.

Hope you have Hard SPL, you need it for sd card flash...

I solved the problem with the bad ROM.
I downloaded an official rom from here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
I has done a clean install.
But i still can§t install another rom, from the forum.
Will try again.

The new official rom's appear to be flashable only by using the "flash from internal storage card" method, so just search out those words & you shall find all info/ tut's on doing it m8

Or unzip the exe file and flash the .nbh file with udK.s Custom RUU

just start bootloader mode (reset and keep vol down till the tricolor appears.)
u'll see "serial" written on the bottom of the screen, just connect your diamond to the pc till "USB" appears instead of "serial".
now just follow the method that omaga mentioned erlier.
it's as easy
good luck!

doesn't work either way. i got the same error when i tried flashing the new rom. it doesn't work with the custom RUU, i gave up and flashed another one before trying to flash from storage.
my advice is to flash an older official ROM and try the flash from internal storage solution or try a cooked rom

I had exact the same problem. Tried twice to install the official but sith no luck.
Got bored and Installed Duttys.
Did not try the flash from card though.

Don't worry - when it happened to me I was scary too that I bricked phone- it's not bricked.To make it work just reflash your HARDSPL once again on that tree color screen use olinex 1.40 or 1,93. After that this rom starts working you don't have to reflash it again. I flashed this rom twice and always in the end it trows error bla bla bla . Reflash HARDSPL and it works with no problem even if you do HR.
Cheers guys

thanks friends, i install Dutty's last version (so i need at least one working system).
But i still want to upgrade to latest official, and don't know hot to do that safely?
pegaz: did u re-hardspl after new official rom or u'r talking about any rom suitable ?

Thanks.....
worked for me too.

this problem you're talking about happened ONLY with this official HTC SHIPPED 2.03 version. Any other rom's doesn't cause any problems such like that above

And put your phone in bootloader mode manualy.
Volume down + hold reset button down for a while= 4 colour mode should appear, wait for "serial" change to "usb" just as seatone posted before
Done this with all my previous HTC devices (bt-mode manually)= Problems with flash? 0 times
and a second very importent tip is that Read every thing about flashing the phone before doing it

Ok i just did this update and it did the same thing =( I got the same error and it doesn't seem to work. I did this upgrade from a 1.35 HTC ROM upgrade so it was stock all the way. What can I do to fix this? It's a UK phone and I live in Canada so I downloaded the US one when it asked where I live nearest to. Did I make a booboo?
Ok I did it a third time and it worked =\
Anyone find that the alarm clock function doesn't work? Even if it did like before, it doesn't go off when the phone is off which sucks! My older phones do!

just sharing = i've tried to update te new room 2.03.401.2 and got the same error as you(The image file is corrupted, 270)
Well i, tried to reflash with the same room and again got the same error. Then i downgrade to my previous room, in case 1.93, after did it i reflash hardspl olenix 1.93 ( cause i did not have it before). Done, i was completely safe again.
I did not give up and, again tried to flash the 2.03.401.2 official, but this time from the from the internal storage. Guided by this tuto = http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2707841&postcount=4035
THATS IT, ITS TO EASY, First i thought it would be so hard, but the procedure its easy a lot.
SPECS @OFFCIAL Diamond_HTC_Europe_2.03.401.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship
The touchflo3d is VERY VERY VERY FASTER, as much as you/me/we/us thought. It also has included automatic regional settings from brazil, which before does not. It's to soon to tell more specs about it but i've soon until now its just great.
TNX GUYS, AND I HOPE HELPED.

I had the same problem yesterday.
So I just rebooted & installed the rom I had previously been using (latest official french one).
Then I followed the instructions for doing a flash from the internal storage :

Instructions for flashing from internal storage:
Extract the RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_2.03.401.2_Radio_Signed_Dia mond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship.exe file (or whatever one you are wanting to flash) to a new directory on your PC
Find the RUU_signed.nbh file in this new directory and rename it to Diamimg.nbh
Copy Diamimg.nbh to the root of Internal Storage
Hold in the volume down button + the back button (thats the top right button on the front to the right of the big middle jog control) + soft reset
Follow instructions on screen
When the process is complete (it will say UPDATE SUCCESS) then reset

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471699&page=8
Everything worked fine.
I also had changed the hspl to HSPL OliNex 1.93 as the phone came with a crappy operater ROM.
At first when the phone gets stuck in the tricolour band mode I thought I wouldn't be able to connect to the pc (no active sync) but at the base of the tri-colour bands you'll see 'USB' if your cable is connected ('SERIAL' if not), & then there's no problem executing the ROM installation.
So put the ROM you had before, then once done, follow the instructions from the quoted text above. It'll work & you'll breathe a sigh of relief.
Here's a decent explanation (visual) of how to do a hard reset : btw, hard reset clearly explained for newbies (such as me)
http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_touch_diamond_hard_reset_soft_reset_en.html

I'm having the same problem after unsuccesful update I'm getting 4 coloured screen with messege:

Any solutions?, I'v tried already above with no success.

HELP! - Cannot flash bootloader away from SPL-0.41.coke

I have a major issue here. Please bear with me.
I flash my phone to the official 6.1 rom a few months back. Now I recently decided to try a custom rom by NFSFAN. So first thing was to flash the bootloader by IMCokeMan version 0.41. After doing that I flashed the custom rom. Once it booted up my phone kept reboot itself every few seconds or so. It turns out now that it was a battery issue, but I was sure the battery was fine and thought it was simply an incompatibility issue with the rom.
So I then tried to flash the official 6.1 rom back on, but it froze at 44% and then threw a 262 error after a minute or so. I then learned that I needed to flash the IMCokeMan 0.40 unlocker/relocker to get the official rom back on. So I did. Then tried the official rom again, and lone behold, froze at 44% and then gives the 262 error.
Then I thought I'd try the NFSFAN's rom again. So I flashed that. Once it successfully finished and started to load it freezes at the Telus splash screen and "No Radio" appears in red on the screen.
So this is where I'm at. I've tried to flash nearly every bootloader I could find and no matter what I do the bootloader always shows "SPL-0.41.coke". I can't flash any official rom including Telus, Bell or Sprint as they each freeze at different spots but consistently at the same spot individually (Telus at 44%, Bell at 30-some%, Sprint at 29%). I can flash custom roms as well as the beta wm6.5 rom but those don't fully load and give the "No Radio" error.
The ONLY rom I can successfully flash is an old 6.0 rom that someone dumped from a telus vogue. But in this rom under "Device Information" the rom is 1.11.661.1 and the radio version field is blank! And I cannot make data connections, as in I cannot connect to the internet, etc.
So my question to anyone that may know is: why am I having these issues with the radio version? How can I get rid of the SPL-0.41.coke bootloader?
And what can I do at this point? Any help from anyone is a thousand times over appreciated!

*********** bump-a-doo? *************

eeps! similar issue! did I brick it???
My symptoms are different, but the way I got there is pretty much the same:
I wanted to try NFSFAN's 1.28 Bell rom, so I unlocked with IMCokeMan's 2.31 unlocker (2.31 instead of 0.41 because I had previously upgraded to UTStarcom's Bell WM6.1 rom with the 3.42.50 radio when it came out). The unlock process went smoothly, and I had no problem flashing NFSFAN's 1.28 rom after that either.
NSFAN's RUU said I was successful, and my Vogue automatically restarted but got hung up on the "Bell" splash screen, I tried to let it work itself out for over 15 minutes before I tried a reset, but it still had the same problem. Tried a hard reset: same problem. I let it sit connected to the charger for a half week now and it still is hung at the "Bell" splash screen.
I'd try to flash the stock rom again, but I can't get the RUU to work without an activesync connection (right?).
Did I brick it? Any advice would be appreciated.
Here's everything my version-screen says if it helps at all:
M 03
B 01
P DCAAXOM-4350H
R 3.42.50
D 3NFS (is that NFSFAN's rom or an error?)

I've been reading through the ImCoKeMaN's unlocker sticky (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20370), and I noticed there is a "VERY IMPORTANT / Warning" referring to the 0.40 rom you used. Here's what it says:
If your carrier did not release a rom and you flash an exe of another carrier with the 0.40 unlocker you won't be able to flash ANY rom until unlocking again (this requires booting into WM)

Thats the problem im having theres no way I know to get passed that screen that says no radio. So you can't even get into WM. So since it cant load into WM you can't run the unlocker. Most custom roms flash fine but its the radio thats missing it wont go past that.

You do NOT need to be in WM to unlock, WM has nothing to do with it
Start phone in bootloader mode (power+camera+stylus in reset hole and hold this until the 3 color screen comes up) it will say serial at the bottom
Plug in the USB cable to your PC and it will change to say USB
Start the 2.31 Unlocker RUU.EXE (RomUpdateUtility.exe) file, follow the steps
then run your custom ROM when after it restarts do does it thing and reboots again by going back into bootloader mode and doubleclicking the RUU.exe file in the custom ROM folder you want to use
Once it runs through the setup after flashing and then the autorun and restarts - hard reset the phone (red+green+stylus in hole) until a gray screen comes up
Follow directions and then setup and autorun and reboot
Make sure you have a carrier cab and/or mms fix either on your PC to copy over to your phone or on your SD Card ahead of time and you should be set to go

I answered his question on his thread. You forgot one thing though Doug. He doesn't have a radio. He'll need to flash back to stock before he flashes a custom. Doesn't this get frustrating???

Please help!!

i just loaded a new rom onto my diamond. after installation the phone turns on and displays touch diamond then sits there for about 20 seconds then reboots. its keeps doing it. what can i do?!! ive tried loading another rom but it seems to keep doing it.

When you put you phone into bootmode, does it still restart then?
And have you tried a hard-reset?

it did stay in boot mode, but once i loaded a new rom it did the same thing. i had to load a couple roms before it stuck and started working. thanks for your help.

Maybe this link will help to solve the problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3433851&postcount=22

Option 2:
If the link above method doesn't work for you, then just simply but your device into bootloader and flash a stock ROM then go back to a cooked ROM and everything she be ok.
Go Here to Find Stock Roms It doesn't matter which one you chose as the goal here is to remove the bloated ROM which happens from too many flashes.

hi, i know this post is a little old but MY DIAMOND IS DOING THE SAME EXACT THING!
i just started leaerning how to do all this, and the only HardSPL that worked on my phone was 1.24.
i updated to that spl, then i upgraded the radio but when i did the rom flashing event i am left with a messed up phone, resulting in only turning on and off, not getting past the touch diamond screen.
PLEASE HELP ME.

Guide to completely restore your messed up device
This little guide is made for newbies who are stuck after flashing images in a wrong way or flashing wrong things.
Note: This is only for GSM Touch Diamond!
This Guide does not include the MTTY Procedure!!
Q. What does this mean?
A. Well, if you are still facing some problems after following this guide, it's time to use MTTY.
Q. what is MTTY?
A. It's a flashing procedure before flashing a ROM, it actually formats your phone (you internal storage will not be lost) and then you are able to flash a ROM.
Q. When do I have to use MTTY?
A. You have to use it before every ROM flash. Before you proceed with step 14, you must read this! It's the only step you need to do it, except for the latest cutsom ROM flash.
Perform a hard-reset (Hold Center button + reset)
Go into bootloader mode by holding volume down and pressing the red reset button
A red-green-blue-white screen will appear. In the white part of the screen, there should be the word 'Serial'
Connect your phone to the computer.
If the word 'Serial' changes into 'USB', you succesfully connected your phone
Go to this link and download 'Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex.zip'
Extract it to an empty folder.
Run RomUpdateUtility.exe, make sure your phone is still connected
Follow the steps, check device for prompts after PC shows loading bar. it should go to black screen now.
SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done.
to confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode 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!
Now you have re-flashed Hard-SPL, it's time to flash a stock ROM.
Make sure your phone is connected again
Download a stock rom (ie from here) and run the executable.
Follow the instructions, and be patient.
You're done now. You are now able to flash a custom ROM of your choice.
If you can't get your device to work, not my problem! If this didn't help your device is bricked. You'll have to return it to HTC.
And of course I am not responsible for any trouble you get with this guide.
Don't you understand some steps or do you still need help?
Try reading this. It is a great tutorial about flashing your device including the MTTY procedure.
If you still can't get a clue of it don't hestitate to PM me!
You can also add me to msn, see the msn icon to the right of my post.
