Hello, this is my first post here. I tried to install Windows Mobile 6.5 as indicated in Gizmodo http://gizmodo.com/5281397/how-to-install-windows-mobile-65-right-now but it didn't work and now my phone won't boot.
The phone is an HTC Touch Diamond from Sprint. I followed all the steps indicated and everything look fine, but after installing the OS the phone displays the screen TOUCH DIAMOND, and then restarts and displays the same thing. I'm able to get into the boot loader (Tri color screen) and says:
DIAM500
SPL-0.57.CMONEX
MicroP-Diam (LED) vB
PSOC-Diam STAGE_EVT v20.
I don't know what to do now
Thanks
try to load back to default setting by pressing the power on button at the top of the phone, before the "Touch Diamond" logo come up, press and hold volume down button and the center button until the three color screen come out, then release the two button you are pressing..
if the problem still happen, that mean the rom you are using should have risk on it..
give it up and try other rom or flash it again..
hope my suggestion can help you solve the problem..
dont worry.
if bootloader is possible as you write
than you can flash all time orig. rom back.

Hi I have the same issue on my HTC Diamond. I flashed wm 6.5 and it was working fine, then it hanged on titanum weather. I reset and it stayed on the HTC Diamond page, I did hard reset and got the Olinex 1.40 3 color page. It does respond from serial to usb when I plug/unplug. Can I reflash without active sync?
Turns out I was able to flash, but both roms I tried work well on 1st install, but stay stuck on the Touch Diamond screen everytime I restart de device. Is it a problem with the radio not compatible , or is there a specific Hspl for each ROM???
I found solution for this problem. If your diamond won't boot go to bootloader mode and upgrade your radio http://modmydiamond.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=15&Itemid=26 and after that your dimond worked fine without loosing data.
try to hard reset the phone by pressing vol down key + the center button + reset button.
if the problem is still like dat..
try to install another rom..

Thanks davidwong007 for your help, I was experiencing the same issue as op and your method did the trick. For a minute there I thought I had bricked my HTC Touch. I did step by step what you suggested and ended up in the rainbox screen, once I was able to do that, I knew there was a hope. i did a full factory reset of the phone and voila the phone fully booted, the pain in the butt touchflow loaded. Very important thing I forgot to do in the past is to back up my phone, after the restore you will lose everything on phone, except what is in the internal storage. Thanks again.

dear friends ,
my phone has shut down and only when you take out the battery and put it back in after which you press any button on the phone it comes on and shows the htc logo after which it displays the following
ipl 3.07.001
spl 3.07.000
gsm 02.69.90
os 3.7.0.0
remains on for about 5-6 seconds and goes off
have tried to enter the boot loader mode by pressing the record button and reset button but it continous to behave in the same manner as mentioned above .
also when i try to charge the phone it shows only a red light
hoping someone can offer a solution to my problem
thanks and regards
I'd also be interested to know about this as my MDA Compact III has just done exactly the same thing.
have you guys tried flashing...that could kill it if not done propertly....but i doubt,the led is on,splash screen appears...info appears...what were last few things you did
according to spl os and ipl you flashed artemis touch 4.02 if i'm not wrong...or maybe tom's v5...try reflashing the same rom or just try a hardreset
Interesting...I've recently flashed the same ROM (v4.02)
I am certain I followed all the instructions about USPL and its been working fine for about a week...then it just went blank!
Will try re-flashing and/or a hard reset.
Thanks for the advice.

dear friends,
took the device in for repairs the fault was with the power circuit board which had to be changed as`informed to me by the technician
i now remember a few months ago the power button stopped working and a few days before the phone went bad it would work intermittently but there was no spring in the button hence it would have to be pressed quite hard for it to work i feel that this loose power button caused the power circuit to fail also my sd card was spoilt and the same had to be replaced
cast me appx in usd 30 for the repairs
thanks

what do you mean by( I can't unlock the exca)?
Hard Reset
Hard Reset will most likely solve the problem. I had the same problem.
TO HARD RESET:
-Turn off the phone
-Hold 2 soft keys
-press the power button for 3-5 seconds(still holding two soft keys)
-black screen will show up saying that pressing send key(green) will restore your settings to original settings.
-press send(still holding two soft keys)
-the end.
NB: YOU'LL LOSE YOUR PHONE'S DATA.
For Hard-Reset see sticky "a picture tells a million words"
The hard reset dont work, frezz in HTC screen I wait 2 hrs.
I dont want unlock, I want normal funcions.

Don't understand bolded?
You have tryed Hard-Reset not work, remove battery for about 5 mins and replace, try again "Normal boot then if not work try Hard-Reset"
Sorry for my poor english, Im from mexico.
I try the master reset many times it does not work, of several ways, extracting the battery for 5 minutes, 1 hr, 3 days, and it does not complete the reset, freeze in the htc screen, or another times in windows mobile logo screen.
When attempt to change the flash (for solving the problem) the process does not continue of 3%, this happens so I cant execute the jump USPL aplication.
In summary:
reset hard not work (hold 2 soft keys / turn on / black screen / send key)
Change the Rom for repair de damage not work (I cant load the aplication for jump USPL)
Write Rom direct in the bootloader (3 color screen) not work (hold camera button and tur on)
Any idea?
Change bootloader?
Another powerfull rom?
Special software?
Special combination to delete all in the internal memory without entering Romupdateutility locks or windows?
Please helpme to recover my excalibur.
this is so easy to fix,
your old rom now crashed, hardreset can't help you,
to repair,just download a new rom then open bootloader mode.

Help.
pleas if anybody can help me
after I tried to flas new rom in my htc touch diamond and I failed, my htc cannot start up, it freezes at HTC touch diamond screen
please please please I need help
hard reset it : Low volume + central pad + reset.
But the problem isn't totally solved, it's the same for mine...
yes I have tried it, but still doesn't work
I can't install any rom and I don't know what to do
can you get into bootloader?
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)
if so, you see in the white part of the screen the word 'serial' connect your device to pc and this will change in 'usb'. Now you should be able to flash a ROM, i would go for your original stockROM
go to bootloader, connect with usb and try to flash another rom..worked for me...
or take a look at the mtty thread and please use the search function...
best regards
yes, I get into bootloader, and I sync my phote to the pc
and when the rom start flashing it stops in 0%, I have tried ALL ROMs, but still not work
also I have tried with mtty but still I am desperate
any other option please...
did you perform hardSPL on your phone? (i.o.w. is it unlocked so that you can flash custom roms?)
if not you can only flash a stock ROM
use mtty and flash any rom
I recently tried to unlock my uncle's Diamond. I used Hard SPL1.4 from this site, and it finished that successfully. After restarting, I went through the whole screen calibration and so on, then I went to the kitchen to get some food. By the time I got back, the Diamond wouldn't start at all. I haven't tried a hard reset, but I don't think that would do me any good since the phone doesn't start up at all. Is there anything I can do? Or will I have to tell my uncle I ****ed his phone..
Just a quick detail, I did notice that after it started up again, the area next to the SIM card slot heated up quite a bit. I don't know if that's related, but I figured I'd tell you anyway.
The Hard SPL of choice is the 1.93. Any who, try and place the device into bootloader mode (tri-colour screen).
Hard Reset Your Device:
• Soft reset button and hold the vol. down + Circle button until u see the grey screen. REMEMBER THIS WILL ERASE EVERYTHING SAVED ON THIS ROM (i.e. contacts, calender, etc.)
Bootlaoder Mode:
• Soft reset and hold the volume down until u see the tri screen
Do you see the Hard spl 1.40? if yes, then just a hard reset and see what happens
IF none of the above worked, take out the BATTERY for a bit and try the above options all over again.
Hi, thought i would add to this thread.
Mine also did this, it worked fine for a week with Windows Revolution 6.5 rom then it randomly turned off and refuses to turn on.
Bootloader mode / hard / soft reset none work.
I have a Stock TILT 2 (TP 2) never flashed running basic programs Mobile Shell never had any issues with it, haven't installed new software in a few weeks , but I soft resetted it this morning and it keeps getting stuck in the boot screen. when first turned on it will run through boot screen then load screen for a millisecond then back to boot screen and never advances again , I've tried battery out sim card out Sd card out everything, even tried hard reset , but wont allow me to hard reset with front buttons and power, is there another way to hard reset , is it possible my phone just bricked for no reason ? thanks for any help ?
have you tried to do a hard reset via the pc? the original rom is on the htc website so you can try useing the exe file there. there is also an updated rom you can try to flash there. hope that helps
You might try sending it to the bootloader screen and reflashing. I don't know if it will work, but I thought it might be worth the effort.
I did notice that HTC removed the original shipped ROM for the Tilt2. I'm sure it is floating around here somewhere. If not, I have it and can send it to you when I get home.
Thanks I have original rom and just released wont work.
dod you see anythign on teh screen? if you do, then hard reset may fix it.
Power off your phone (or take teh battery out). Then press and hold teh call and hang up button while press teh power button. it will enter the hard reset mode. (remember hard reset will erase all the info on the phone and rever tot the stock setting).

wow, thank god i dl'd it when i dl'd the updated rom... and they still have the image of the old rom right beside it... lol
as for op, you can try to enter the bootloader with the following steps
Remove the back cover from the phone.
Hold the Volume Down button.
Use the stylus to press the reset hole.
Or if the device was powered off, press the power button whilst holding down the Volume Down button.
and try to flash from there
hope that helps again
