Error 270 - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

Hi All,
I did some search, but it seems there's no Error 270 topic for a Touch Diamond. And surprisingly that's the problem I have. Here's the deal.
For a whole duration of the day I've been trying to upgrade to 2.03 ROM, which would my first ROM upgrade. I tried the ROM from the phone's importer site, the HTC site, xda site, all lof them with the same result. After the RRU reaches 100% the mobile goes to Tricolor with "Upgrade ROM code error" message and the RRU shows says Error 270.
I searched the forum and saw that some of the people suggested to burn different HardSPL versions, so I tried burning the 2.03 with various HardSPL versions, 1.24, 1.30, 1.93 are the few I remember, there were more, both signed and unsigned, the last is SPL-1.93.OliNex unsigned -> all of them installed nicely, with a clean reset after them but the following upgrade to 2.03 failed every time the same way, Error 270, as usual.
I use an original USB cable and an XP OS that, at the moment of RUUing, runs nothing but the RUU.
By the way, I also tried doing the upgrade from the internal storage. I renamed the ~100MB file to the name specified in the Noob Guide (DIAMIMG.NBH) and put it at the root of the storage device, but the bootloader gray screen says no image found (or something similar and goes directly to trying to find a USB host).

OK an Update (for whoever gets this problem after me).
I'm not sure why the installation from PC failed time after time - this is something for smarter people to find out.
I solved it by eventually managing to copy one of the numerous RUU_signed.nbh I tried, to the Internal storage, renaming it to the DIAMIMG.NBH and running the bootloader procedure.
Why didn't this work for a 6-10 times I did this before, I donno, the important thing that now it did, and I'm going to enjoy my diamond starting this moment.

Hello,
I'll be happy to help to the extent I can.
But can you please specify where you stand right now?
I mean, what steps did you take already and where did you stop?
For example,
Do you have Hard SPL installed already?
What's the ROM you currently have?
Can your phone boot up correctly? Can it sync with your PC?
Is your phone locked?
Let me know some details.

Corrupt Charmer (PM200) upgrade help

Guys, my phone is dead and I need a little help please.
I have a T-Mobile MDA Compact II and have mistakenly (why it worked I don't know) 'updated' it with a Prophet firmware release. This progressed as I expected but was I since discovered completely wrong. My phone now shows a black screen with Dopod logo on boot and then hangs.
I have since found this site (looks good btw!) and subsequently the ftp area. I've downloaded the correct firmware for my phone, reset into the three colour screen and kicked off the Romupdater for the proper version I believe to be for my phone. With the 2 releases from ftp (one in that directory appears to be only half a zip file) they appear to be uploading but there is no change with the black screen problem.
I'm now stuck and am hunting for options. I'm more than happy to help myself but can someone explain what I need to do and start me on my way to fixing this.
All because it hangs from time to time when I run up too many apps on it.
Thanks in advance
Andy
Tell us what ROM you are using and which software you are using to perform your ROM update.
Anyway, it is weird that the Prophet ROM doesn't work on your phone. Keep this low tone, but I've done a Prophet ROM flash on my Charmer before. Everthing works well except the camera, that's why I flashed it back to the original ROM. I won't advise others to do so, there seems to be a few 'fatal' cases. I'm not sure, probably because it is compatible with the earlier Prophet version.
UPDATE: Nevermind, you seems to have the information. Good if you can stick to the same threat to avoid confusion. To others, please refer to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=275337&highlight=
At work and I've left the phone at home but I believe it was something like 2.3.15 (i.e. upgrade from v1 to v2)
Correction, it's SPL 2.15, IPL 1.12.
I have seen a post on Hermes bootloader access over USB using Mtty and now have access to the cmd> Can someone help me perform a bootloader based ROM downgrade to known working or deleting the image that is there?
Have now found the awizard utility, which file type does awizard need to be fed via the ROM directory?
Yes I'm a newbie at this and shouldn't have messed with the ROM update but I'm an I.T. guys by trade so if you can feed me the info I need I should be able to follow instructions
Phone is still 'dead' though.
It needs
XXX-OS.nba
XXX-Radio.nba
XXX-ExtROM (directory wit Ext Rom stuff)
You ought to get these from the FTP. I've myself uploaded a Charmer original UK ROM T-mobile, it should be still there is no one messed with it.
Hmm, I've missed something then. I put the .nba files into the ROM directory and then run awizard and hit w. Where I would expect to see a list of files with numbers there isn't any.
What I miss?
the dir structure of the aWizard looks like the attached, where you have the ROMs under the "ROM" dir and Ext ROM. Where the aWizard directory has the aWizard.cmd file.
Can someone provide a split up (i.e. seperated nbf files) for the Charmer or the correct memory addresses to punch into nb2nbf to create my own?
The images seem to have been removed from the FTP site and I'm in position to de-brick my phone!

LAST HOPE!

I'm having a mare....my Artemis has died after a hard reset - just sits at bootloader. I can't flash any rom at all using RUU. All cooked roms fail after 3% with a "image corrupt" error and all original roms (wm5 and wm6 for o2 orbit) fail after 5% with "Flash Write" error.
I've also tried flashing from SD card....starts...but then fails on the validating certificate with an "SD FAT error" or sorts.
I know it's probably salvagable as I can get into bootloader....any ideas? People on forums are telling me to unlock using USPL...but because i cant get into the os to get activesync....it won't work.
a simular thing happens to me my one sits in a rgb screen and says ipl 3.04.0001 and spl 3.04.0000. none of the roms i used work ive just decided to leave it. if your ipl and spl is lower than mine i guess you will be more likley to get working again as people with the same ipl and spl as me cant get their one working
Try to go to bootloader and try to use it :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
If it work try to flash with any custums roms.
If you don't have this , you only can flash with officials roms. That's why you can't flash with custums roms

Thanks for this however I;ve been directed to that thread before and each time it's pointless. There is no point me attempting to USPL my device when I can't get an activesync connection due to the fact it has no OS bootable.
As for the official Roms...I've tried the ones that have been touted as official for the Orbit but with no effect.
My IPL SPL is currently 1.25.0001/1.25.0.000 but when i attempt to flash with official rom (!) it moves to the same as spikez - ipl 3.04.0001 and spl 3.04.0000
Anyone with any further help - ordered a new Touch HD but I need to get this one up and running
Thanks
have you tried sd card flash
make sure you put the orignal rom on the root of a none sdhc card (1gb or smaller) and is renamed to "Arteimg.nbh"
official wm5 rom
official wm6 rom
Simply put the phone in bootloader with your 'boot' card inserted and follow the instructions.
Spikez.....I've tried that before. It reads from the SD card....goes through the motions, and then provides an error after about 5-10mins saying "SD FAT update failed"
Any ideas...please reply if only to say "no chance mate"
Thanks for any help you can give me.
i still guess yours is more likely to be fixed than mine as mine just goes straight to the rgb screen can you take a picture of what appears on your screen.
Try use an none offical rom and does your artemis ask you to "update sd image press this key to start download"
unfortunately i've left my digi cam at work I can explain rather well though, bear with me:
I reset the device with SD card in and I get a white screen saying "Checking SD Card" - there is then an arrow asking me to hit volume key to flash...I do that.
I get 5 mins of "Reading from SD" at the bottom of the white screen. Following that I get a "verifying certificate" message and then about 10seconds later a "SD FAT update failed!!!" message...it then just sits there until I press a key on the device and then it falls back to bootloader (multi coloured screen)
this MUST be fixable by somebody who isn't a noob like me - any ideas?
either try add these files into root of sd card
Enterbootloader.exe
rapitool.exe
RomUpdateUtility.exe
RUUGetInfo.exe
RUUREsource.dll
RUU_USPL_Signed.nbh, and
"Arteimg.nbh"
or try once in bootloader plug in usb and try using a ruu
files didn't work...just went straight through to bootloader as opposed to reading SD card. As for launching the RUU through windows...didn't work either. Bombed out after 5% with a "FLASH WRITE " error

as your ipl and spl is so high i guess you may have a Brick i cant seem to get my one working either as i earlier stated it is very common that people with this ipl and spl cant seem to get theirs back working.

True but as can be seen from that post...mine shifts from 1.25 to 3.04 depending on the flash attempt?
my best suggestion to you is stick with it. Try read through this sign up and post here andrew, bill, [email protected] and noney82 very helpful read through see if that post is any use.

HELP on installing new ROM

HI,
Im having problem installing a new ROM wm 6.5 to my touch diamond1. I tried doing the installtion from my internal storage. I renamed the new ROM already and place it in my internal storage and tried to install from there. I have a hard SPL Olinex 1.4 or 1.37.
after I pressed the lower vol+back button the red/green/blue screen cam and then a gray screen asking for movihand.mtg and after that it loads another gray screen saying loading.............. for a long time.
If anyone has encountered this problem need assistance.
Im trying to install deepshining ROM ver 8.
Thanks,
You need unsigned hard_spl like the Olinex 1.40 or 1.93
see this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
do not forget to use the search option
things i found to check:
do you have the hardspl 1.93 (are you sure)
try deleting the files on your internal storage (or copy them to your computer) and only put the DIAMIMG.NBH file in the root
try it with the customruu.exe if it stays at 0% for too long, something is wrong, probably with your hardspl
put your device in bootloader (rgb screen), connect to computer, on the bottom serial should change to usb. try using customruu.exe.
you need to have the nbh file in the same directory as customruu offcourse.
maybe a not so nice remark. sorry in advance:
but if you have so many problems why try flashing at all? i can guarantee you that you will run into problems using custom rom's. you will have to do a lot of searching and trying to find solutions. the manuals about flashing are already in the forums. and working for everybody else. so you are probably doing something wrong.
I would suggest that you search a lot more and longer and list everything you tried. you are not the first to run into problems, and you will not be the lasts.
good luck
thanks I will try again thanks for the advise.

Original Vodafone SPL (warranty)

Hello,
I've got an touch diamond with hard spl and windows mobile 6,5... but today my touch screen doesn't react on touching anymore so I need to send it for warranty. I had an backup of my original spl but I lost it installing windows 7...Now I need an original spl for my vodafone phone... Maybe someone can help me with this(I'm from holland don't know if that matters for the version of the spl...)
already many thanks...
Erick
Try searching on the Vodafone website for a Rom for your device, if you are able to find it then flash it, it will install the rom and radio, but the SPL will remain HardSPL. As the final step when you have your stock rom flashed is the SPL flashing, the SPL can be extracted from the Vodafone rom package with "nbh extract"... when you will have it follow the steps in the HardSPL thread where you can find the way to flash the original SPL...
Allright, I installed a new firmware from the internal storage because my touch screen doesn't work... now the only thing i need is the original bootlader. I tried nbh extract but it doesn't work on my windows? (windows 7) here is the link to my original rom http://www.vodafone.nl/Vodafone/wg2...igned_Diamond_52.44.25.24_1.08.25.08_Ship.exe
maybe someone can help me how to install the bootloader...(again I have no touchscreen anymore
regards and thanks already
heres how i envisage doing it.
you need to run jumpspl on your phone. I guess you can still run an OS and execute apps using the navi pad and action key.
if you have done the jumspl correctly your screen will rurn blank connect your phone to your PC and then you can flsh the original spl back!
i attach the jumpspl with instructions as well as the SPL.nb file extracted from the ROM which you posted the link to.
i did not recreate it as an nbh file as i do not know what model ID, country ID,Version and language your phone, is may be some one else can tell you! or if you tell me can build a flashable nbh for you!
i ask can some one else to please verify this procedure first, before you attempt doing it!
Well great thanks for the help but maybe you can make a flash file for me...the next thing is the problem, windows is installed and when you want to start windows you will need to tap te screen to run the standard procedure to allign the screen and set the date...I can't do this without touch and so i can't load any apllications how do i find the info that you need?regards
Can anyone tell me where to find:
ID, country ID,Version of my HTC touch Diamond??(without touch screen)
regards
alrright the next things i've found hope that it helps for creating a nbh file for my spl instead of the hardspl...
Country - The Netherlands
Dutch Language
Rom1.93
DIAM100
FCDID:NM8DMS
ok ive done it with the info you gave but i also used some of the generic info like Moel ID= Diam**** .... etc
the nbh is built but you should get confirmation off some one else before you proceed! i take no responsibility ! hope this helps
can somebody check/confirm this? Already many thanks! regards Erick
allright i installed it but it doesn't work still have got olinex spl...at this moment active sync is working maybe someone can help me out now?
regards
it wont work until you run jump sl properly! jump spl overides the write restrictions on the spl!
if you run jump sply correctly the screen will go blank as soon as you execute it!
then connect you usb cable and flash! (whilstthe screen is blank)
already thanks for the great help, JUMPSPL is running! now i try to install the rom with customruu and then copy the nhb you made for me in the same directory..only it still stays on olinex
CustumRUU says it is installed correctly and that it's finished...I think Jump SPL isnt working like it should, the screen is not turning black but it says that i can install the spl...I think the problem is that i can't alling the screen and windows is not fully loaded yet..?
regards
mmm, the problem is jum spl alright! im sorry i dont have a solution for you may be some one else can help! try searching i quiet sure i have read similar problems elswhere!
yeah the problems are there enough but no sollutions to it...I need the following thing...In the startup folder of windows mobile there is the welcome screen, i wan't to delete it so maybe i can go throug loading windows and then i maybe can load the jump spl...just to skip the allignment of the screen...but when i want to delete the files it says that i've got no autohority, also not with total commander, maybe someone knows anything to delete the files with active sync..?
regards and many thanks already to idristo

How to load the original ROM back?

I've been reading this forum and the internet for about 4 days now,
hence I post this question...
I have an HTC P3300 (Artemis) and tried flashing windows mobile 6.5 onto the ROM..
it reached about 56% when the usb cable got unplugged and the flash failed.
I can get it into bootloader mode...
I'm from India and the original carrier was Idea.(I suppose so, because it had an Idea screen for a few seconds when the phone was switched on)
I used to use a Vodafone SIM, so I guess it was already CID unlocked.
Tried flashing various roms.. including the HTC windows mobile 6.0 worldwide edition, the t-mobile edition and the sprint edition from this site, after putting it into bootloader mode.
Windows Mobile Device Center will obviously not run, as the phone doesnt go beyond displaying this :
IPL 3.07.0001
SPL 3.07.0000
GSM 02.69.90
OS 1.27.0.0
I havent done a HardSPL and I suppose that the ROM flash only changed the OS ... everything else was probably the same.
I can't get mtty to work via USB....nonetheless, I have no clue how to use mtty.
Here are the filenames of the ROMs i've tried:
1. Evolution 23820 ...(downloaded off some site with windows mobile screenshots that got me all "WOW!")
2. Artemis Vanilla 2.0 WWE
3. ART_TMOUK_11311001_024990_WWE_Ship_R3.exe ..(T-mobile)
4. HTC_P3300_WWE_3.13.405.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R.exe ..(this one should have worked)
5. HTC_P3300_NLD_3.13.404.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R.exe ..(this one's probably german)
6. Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.0 (some .uif cd image that i downloaded off rapidshare..about 65 MB)
7. Opal_WM6.5_D24_21901_COM2_WWE (I know I shouldn't have tried this, but this was my first attempt after successfully updating a touchviva to windows mobile 6.5, but I was a complete n00b back then..)
I tried all these ROMs mostly using a "ROM Update Utility" included with the package..
I also tried getting the .nbh files out and putting them on a 1GB microSD after renaming them "ARTEIMG.nbh" ...it used to say "Checking SD card".. and then would show the RGB bootloader again with :
IPL 3.07.0001
SPL 3.07.0000
Errors I received while flashing through USB :
1. Invalid Vender ID (390)
2. Connection Error (260)
it generally stops at 3%
What should I do now?
Thanks for reading.
ouhh doesnt look very good. but happens aaand can be solved.
try this:
Hardreset your phone
or reinstall the originalrom in bootmode: link
please keep care of the usb cable. or try to reflash your phone via sd-card. its very easy and less dangerous.
tried both
hard reset lands u to the same place.. HTC logo and IPL SPL GSM OS...
installing the rom from the link given ... shows a connection error(in bootloader mode)
and did you try to install another rom via sd card.
wihtout pc-connection?
You have to first unlock your device by uspl and then install the rom or simple way is by using sd card. Search the forum for upgrading Artemis by sd
ok, but how do i use uspl if all i can get to is bootloader mode?????
i thought that u need to have windows mobile running well to use uspl...
WM5 English ROM
Does anyone have the windows mobile 5 english rom for artemis?
I tried the french WM5 rom from rapidshare.. but it doesnt work...
I got it to work!!!!
thanks to all you helpful kind smart people at xda!
well.. you people kept me searching for answers...
i found the original rom at an htc south asia site.. windows mobile 6.0
the htc artemis p3300 is also called "dopod" on that site...
anyway... the only reason i couldnt get to it in the start was that it said the cellphone serial number i'd entered wasn't eligible for the update..
i just messed with the last few digits (interchanged them) and got it to accept the download...
that was plain lucky,...
but it wouldve never happened if i hadn't tried..
now.. i'm going to do an artemis uspl via windows mobile device center according to the guides on various fora..
thanks people!
i want to post the rom to some site so that people can get it even 3 years from now... (most of my links were all from 2007.. so the rapidshare downloads hardly ever worked!).. but i don't know how..
