Can't Flash Back!!!

Please someone, anyone, help me out.
I recently flashed my trinity to Bepe's Rom...everything went alright.
Then today I attempted to flash it back to LVSW's rom.
I've done Hard SPL, updated the radio etc...
when I flash LVSW or MUN rom's rom, everything seems to go smoothly, but when the device resets I still have Bepe's Rom.
Tried several times to no avail.
Can anyone help me?

Flash once with an official HTC ROM, then flash with the ROM of your choice

Official Rom DOn't Work
Thx for suggestion re: flashing with an official rom. I flashed with an HTC rom, but still no joy.
It seems to flash fine, but after finishing still got bepe rom!!!
God this thing is like a curse, I just wanted to try it out now it seems that I'm stuck with it permanently.
Someone plz help...

How long does it take you to flash the ROM? Approximately.

It usually takes about 1min 30sec - 2 min to flash the cooked roms.
The official rom takes about 7 or 8 min... definately longer than the cooked ones.

Remove your SD Card an try to flash again, thats very strange!

Sorted...thx.
I was starting to freak out. The SD card was the problem.
You're a legend mate...

Thanks, good to hear that there is no problem any more

From cooked to official - Problems

I have tried to flash official WM6 ROM for p3300. The flash works but when I load software, I get memory problems and eventually the device forces a hard reset and everything is gone.
Tried reflashing but still problems.
Anyone help?

Wierd and unique problem i must say....
best option would be to try out the other versions of the ROM's and see if it stables out - and if it still happens - then put back the original ROM and hand it over to te service center as a defect - this is necessary as the warranty will be considered VOID if you give them back with a cooked ROM.

reverted back to a cooked rom and all is okay. Will leave it that way.

can't flash artemis, uspl not running correctly

hi there.
this is my first post, and unfortunately, it is asking for help..
i recently bought a artemis, and the last couple days i've been searching on roms, both cooking and flashing.
i've tested a couple roms, from vanilla to touch, b&b and others, every single one without a problem. for all of them i've user XP sp2 in a virtual machine (VMWare). everything went ok, cid unlocking and flashing the roms perfectly, and as i finally decided to cook my own rom, i started looking for generic roms from htc, to see what they looked like, so i could had a better understanding on how to cook a good rom to settle my needs.
unfortunately, i flashed a rom, don't now for sure wich, but it's from o2, and from that moment on, i could not flash anymore.
every time i try to run the uspl, i can't get the spl to 1.11.000. it stays on 3.07.000.
i've tried running several times in a row the uspl, then flashing, tried flashing a generic rom, hardspl, arte and uspl, tried running the .nbh from the sd with no success (although there seems to be a fix for that, will try that tomorrow), tried getting into boot and flashing.
but the funny thing is, in the uspl, when it is running, and reaches 70% it jumps to 100%.
and whenever i try to flash it, obviously, i get the error 270 update error.
so, after that, any ideas? the artemis is running smoothly, without a problem, although not with its original rom, and locked to a different provider (it's cid locked to vodafone portugal)
thanks in advance
edit: i've had the chance to test the sd flashind, again, with no result

no ideas anyone?

nevermind, managed to get over it.
used an upgrade from the htc in the language my pda is locked. solve it

I have the same problem. I am working with it !

[Solved]Strange problem!!!!!!!!

dear friends
I am facing a strange problem on my diamond.
After flashing any ROM (whichever it may be) the loading of cabs etc takes place successfully.
But, after few minutes/hours the contents of strat/program are gone. and no program functions. I have flashed re-flashed and reflashed. cannot get over this strange proble.
Can any body guide me what wrong is happening with my diamond???
PS: I have hard SPL 1.40 olinex on my device.

c_shekhar:
I have a similar problem. I have had no issues flashing in the past and am very familiar with the procedure. The other day however I noticed a problem where by some of my apps would "disappear".. odd. Also after some time my phone would hard reset instead of soft reset, at first I put this down the ROM as I have had this before with udk's ROMs (no disrespect intended!) and had tried his topaz ROM. It seems to have got to the point now that once a few hours have passed my phone will lock up and then when I reset, it just hangs at the "touch Diamond" screen and I have to hard reset.
I have tried reflashing Radio, Hard SPL, OS.. I have also tried installing my apps one by one and soft reseting after each install. just whenI think it is working it will freeze again.
I have tried flashing different HARD SPL's but it always completes but when I go into boot loader it still says OLINEX 1.40.
What was the last ROM you flashed before you started noticing the issue? The last two I tried where udk syrius topaz and DIB 1.33.
I wandered if it was something to do with the data on my internal storage???
Going to try a hard reset and format movinand next to see what that does.
P.S: yours was the last ROM I used for my Polaris, it was awesome!!

I tried uDK's topaz based latest ROM and after that it started givind problem.
many a times when I prick for soft reset it hard resets the device. I have hard resetted my device several times but it does not set the problem right.Huhhh
Thanks for liking my Polaris ROM..
any headway found by you pl share.....I had borrowed somebody's Diamond and it is F*##ed up.

Same problem here
I have the same problem.
Started with morna 1.8 and then vic 3.5 and then windows net 6.5.
Seems like it keeps doing it. I just flashed a complete standard stock rom from htc from my internal storage instead of via active sync which had radio os etc all included. i then did nand reformat and copied all my data back. its almost like it forgets the apps that was installed. I also tried redoing olipro 1.4. Its running now on the stock rom from this morning. I did reset about 15 times and its still "sticking". Ill update you guys to see if anything changes.
Very very odd.
I know its not rom related and not a flashing problem - unless i flashed the diamond too many times. Ive been flashing from the good old Imate days, Kaiser, Kaiser 2 etc. So Im NOT doing anything wrong...

I new I wouldn't be the only one!!
I have just hard reset and formatted movinand AND re-downloaded all my apps so for now nothing will be going back on my internal storage that was on before.
I'll post any updates.

I have the same problem with the Morna. Flashed, reflashed, soft & hard reset.. nothing solved. Every about 24hour the TF3D won't start, the SMS&Emails folders are empty, no contacts and on desktop an error on file BOOT.MSC (can't find associated program to open that)...
After 3 days, I have flashed the Touch with the TIR11 and no one problem. I don't know if the problem is of the rom or else...

Sounds like a virus...

never encounter this problem,but some of my friends does.neither do I know why

offtopic: Are you working on a Diamond rom? I really loved (in fact I'm still using it) your 1.60.21014bCS on my polaris... I think it will be permanent... Have you thinked of making a M2D rom for Diamond ?

I had this problem if i cooked a bloated rom on my Artemis, it was easly solved by flashing an untuched stock rom directly from the operator and then flashing a custom rom again and then no problems untill i next flashed a bloated rom, i think that if the rom is too big it fills the area designed for the rom the starts to overright the hpl/spl or radio then the phone starts to crash and loose programs.
so get your opperators rom, flash, flash stock SPL, then flash h/SPL to re-unlock so you can try another custom rom
don't forget to use the H/SPL custom ruu-flasher to flash stock spl or it won't flash (its overright protected)

Thanks for the info, i'll give that a go. Makes sense. Will have to wait till tomorrow so i'll have to put up with a crippled phone till then!!

I posted about this issue a couple of days ago,I had all the symptoms described.
After using the clear storage option on my diamond,clearing the phone and internal storage then flashing a new rom,the problem seems to be resolved.

I also experienced similar issues yesterday and for the first time ever, during the use of a udK rom.

Update

Update : ITs 17 hours later and still going fine. So maybe the reflashing of the stock rom resolved it. I must say the stock rom i flashed is huge. its over 110Mb so maybe it cleaned out all the jazz. Or maybe when i reformatted the NAND it resolved the problem. I dont know. I also did a softreset about 50 times during the night removing the battery every now and then and its still ok. Ill Update again as soon as something Happens

Ill try another rom tonite probably morn 1.8 or wm 6.5 beta 3. and see what happens

i flashed to a HK 2.03 rom and try udk's again, so far so good, will report back any issue

I got exactly the same after the huge 6.5 beta
Clear storage was enough to get rid of it for me (no need for the internal format or the std ROM)
Thanks

Can you kindly write more details?
Is HK 2.03 stock ROM?
Which hardSPL did you have on your device before flashing the HK 2.03?
etc...

Stability Restored
Got mine stable again by following post #10.
Flashed stock 1.93 rom then flashed stock 1.93 spl.
Now back with oli 1.93 hspl and pda corners v3 rom.

Why are some ROMS causing devices to automatically hard reset

Why are some ROMS causing devices to automatically hard reset for some people and not for others?

what roms are these?
i have tried all the roms here and its never happened to me????

It 'happened to me, always on Saturday for 2 time!!
Now I have flashing the original rom and also try this Saturday.
The hard reset is not complete, the icons of the programs remain, and manilla is not loaded. If I do so "physically" vol down, circle button and reset all ok.

Yeah i have the same problem. Tried 4 different ROMs in last 2 days. Found a stable one now and seems to be working well.
Even tried the WM6.5 Beta ROM. Worked very well and was stable. Just didn't like it.
What ROMs have you tried and what ROMs kept hard-resetting?

The first was a rom dib 1.28, last 2 hard reset and always on Saturday with enhanced Morna 1.10
Now i flashed the official HTC rom RUU_Diamond_HTC_ITA_2.03.408.2_Radio_Signed_Diamon d_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship found on this forum :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471699

Until now, never happen to me also.
I have tried almost every rom in this forum, now with udk r6.
I have hspl 1.93 since beginning.
Normally what I do is, before changing to a new rom I always go back to an official rom, then hard reset, then new rom, then hard reset.
Also I always use laptop and keep the official nbh or a tested rom inside internal memory just in case.
hope this help.

This can happen if the storage memory (not 4gb but rom memory) is corrupted.
I would try 1 of these methods to fix:
Flash a stock rom then flash the cooked rom.
or:
Follow the following thread to use mtty to format your memory:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3433851&postcount=22
What happens is that some of the memory is corrupted and mtty/stock rom formats the device and can either restore the bad memory or mark it out of use (there are spare's)
This should fix your issue. This issue appears to be caused more by the newest roms for some reason but only affects a small minority and doing one of the above restores their device fully.
Hope this helps

happend to me once,not sure why...

hspl 1.93
try different hspl.
I had same prob when I had hspl 1.93
flashed back to hspl 1.4 sloved the problem

I`ve been using several wm 6.5 ROM`s and only ROM what did the same thing was udK WM6.5 BETA1 and BETA2 21500 ROM. Now i use sone`s RC2 ROM, and everything is working great. No more hard resets

I have flashed nearly dozen of ROM's but it never happen with me.

i must of flashed 20-30 diff roms and my diamond has neva hard reset itself

This happens to me a lot. Best thing is to use the method posted on Page 1 of this thread using mtty. Unfortunately, mtty doesn't like the Vista USB driver for activesync, so XP is a must. Manually "rolling back" to the XP driver has been reported to have worked in Vista for some people, but sadly not for me. I personally have to use XP on VMWare as I only have a Vista laptop these days
I still get a bad read out out though, something about a certain set of blocks being unable to be deleted, which looks as though it means I have to use this method EVERY TIME I flash, which isn't too bad, but if I don't, I get an unstable device that randomly starts deleting everything in it and eventually itself.
