If I understand you correctly, you'd like to use the OEM ROM for your Diamond? If so, it's easy to "downgrade", just flash the phone with the file you downloaded from HTC's website. If that is not what you meant, let me know.

i want to try orginal windows and my htc now flashed if i used orginal one can i get back my 6.5 cause i don,t know how to flashing it

If you want to get back to 6.5 you'll need to do a bit of reading to learn how to flash a ROM. The information can be found in the sticky here (is at the top of this forum).

If you only flash OS, no problem. If you have hard-spl installed your device will be almost unbrickable.
With a new Hard Spl, I can restore an old ROM?

can you explain me what hard-spl is ?
My question here is, will original ROM restore the splashscreen and initial bootscreen that was changed by LVSW?
So many questions

You can usually restore an old ROM even without Hard-SPL. It makes it a little easier because you can flash even ROMs that are not intended for your device (for example HTC Rom to Vodafone Compact GPS).
can you explain me what hard-spl is ?

Sure. It is a replacement bootloader made by DES and later by Olipro. You'll find it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1239088
LVSW offers it as a download as well, I don't know why he didn't include it in the update itself (nbh).

Yes, original ROM updates are what I call full updates: Bootloader, Splashscreens, OS, Radio. However they will only overwrite Olipro's Hard-SPL if you use Soft-SPL (sspl) for flashing. Keep that in mind if you want to send your device in for warranty repairs...
Enough noob questions answered For details use search, its not hard.
OK OK one more thing...
If I flash from mun_rus rom back to WM05 and take device for warranty... thay will not accept it?
If you flash it properly (load SSPL first, then run official update) they will have no way of telling the difference.
Obviously this only works if you have access to the official full update.

If your phone is the S300+ (SFR version of Trinity) it's gonna be hard. No SFR ROM is available yet. So you can find the OS part over here and you can save your extended ROM, but it seems to be hard to restore exactly as the same.
I`m just asking out of couriosity...
Flashed to muns SE rom works like a charm...

Hi there all im new around here.. kinda new with the PDA phones also Diamond is my first one so.. sorry but i have just 1 question..

Hi when i wanted to upgrade to new stockrom i couldĀ“t do it without hardspl
im using 1.24 it works like a charm..
When upgrading a manufacturer ROM to a newer release of the SAME manufacturers ROM, you don't need HardSPL.
My phone is danish now, Can i change it to english via official rom?
how can i get the rom from htc web site?
Thanks
namida85:
most likely english will not install on your device. to make it happen, you need to install OliNex HardSPL first.
this will enable you to flash any rom afterwards.
where to get rom? just use search engine on this site or internet, you will find what you are looking for.

Yes, if you want to flash different ROM (even official, like FR to WWE) you need HardSPL.

NEED Windows 6.1 rom for my HTC touch pro 2

HI All
on 20th july 2010, i bought new HTC touch pro 2. Being an outdated one, this model is one of mine favorites. After one day of purchase i tried to update my phone to windows 6.5 on HTC website but i was not able to do so because this the the phone was intended to be sold in netherland and not in Singapore. This statement was told to me by HTC customer care, then i called the seller and asked that what should i do. They didnt admit that they cheated on me and they advice me to download windows 6.5 from Netherlands website and i followed their instructions. When the update was finished the language of the phone was turned out to be in Dutch. I asked for help from the seller but they told to pay them exta sum to 50 dollars to restore or to install windows 6.1. I even contacted HTC customer care but they didnt help me out.
So guys, if anyone of you have orginal window 6.1 or orignal window 6.5 then please give the link to download the same. I am in a fix right now. I made a bad purchase and right now my money is on stake.
Please help me
Right now i am in Singapore.
If you want to go down the custom rom route, you should use hardspl to unlock your phone (instructions can be found in this rom development section) and then flash any rom you want. There's quite a few choices so you might want to try a few.

Yes, go to flashing your first GSM Rhodium topic and then choose a ROM.
If you're outdated (like me... ) I recommend a stock 6.1 rom, which I just love. I donno if you're staying in Singapur or not, then choose an Asia ROM.
Right now, it sounds like you're limited to Dutch ROMs, since that's where your phone was designed to be used. But as others have said, if you install HardSPL on your phone (see the sticky posting about it), then you will be able to choose from *any* official ROMs (either from HTC or from carriers) for the GSM Touch Pro 2, or any of the custom ROMs on this site.
So put on HardSPL, then it should be easy to get a ROM to meet your needs.

Not sure about language but I highly recommend McCune's Cosmik Debris Rom. FASTEST WM6.1 ROM and flawless. It doesn't come with any today plugins except the basic ones so you can install whatever you want (I installed sense 2.1 and it's fast as hell).
Once you try this one, you won't care to try any other ones . Just be sure to download the Connection Setup from somewhere (on the 2nd or 3rd post of the thread).

I think that hard spl is installed in the phone, because when i bought this phone it was loaded with windows 6.1 (english) after i update it to windows 6.5, i stucked up with dutch language.
what you think?

I doubt it, it's probably just that you loaded a ROM that was compatible with your specific phone - i.e. if it's a Dutch TP2, then you'll be able to load Dutch official ROMs (but nothing else).
To check, you can put your phone into the bootloader and it will tell you the SPL version (don't worry, this won't harm your phone). Hold down the "Volume Down" button on the side, and press the reset button (and keep holding Volume Down). The phone will come up with a tri-coloured screen and a load of text. In there will be the SPL version, it will be something like 0.79, or 0.84, etc.
HARD-Spl
HARD SPLing your phone will void your guarantee, but you shouldn't worry about it.
Go to the noob session, HARD SPL is an exe, will "open" your phone in 2-3 minutes.
Then, you can flash any rom.
I do not know, if you need an asia rom just because you stay in asia.
Maybe not.
I use 6.1 stock rom, also called shipped rom.
Or just choose any.
I have this if this (6.1)is what you are looking for.

No need to do that. All original ROMs can be downloaded from here (just not the carrier specific ones).

How to make my Diamond orginal so that the warranty gets valid???

Hello! The amplifier in my diamond is broken. The audio sounds very thin and week trough the audio-port, but sounds good when i use my bluetooth-headset.
How do I make it original so i can use the warranty?
I have hard-spl and a custom rom, do i have do replace the hard-spl with the original one, or can i just install a original rom and still use the hard-spl??
Where do i find the orginal "hard-spl" in that case?
Pleas help me! Sorry for the bad English.
you can just download the stock rom provided by your provider, if you have bought it through him, or if it was with a generic rom, you can easily go to the htc website, give your serial number and it will give you the link to download the rom directly from the htc website.
It will flash the original hard-spl, radio and rom, so it will be original
best regards

Pretty weird. Are you sure i'll get the original hard-spl by doing this? Because I installed a original ROM by doing this, and then i installed a custom ROM again after a while, without installing hard-spl and it went just fine:S

If it's the first time you flash a ROM, you have to follow the HardSPL tutorial.
After your Diamond have HSPL, you can flash which ROM you want, there are lots of good ROM in this section, i suggest you Maemo ROMs but you should try it yourself.
I'm using Celoni Tribute ITA, he also released a WWE version with WM6.5.x and HTC Sense.
Im using 2.03.xxxx
Get them from the Diamond Stock ROM WIKI
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Diamond_Upgrades
hey thanks a lot but do i need to do a HSPL to upgrade to those ROMS? the shipped ones? and any HSPL would work? or i have to flash an specific one in order to upgrade the ROM to the shipped one 2.03.xxx ?
No it should flash fine if it is your operator
If it is a different operator, maybe, Im not sure
so i dont have to do any HSPL ? just run the rom with the phone on activesync and thts it? and i think my phone is not flashed with HSPL it will work without doing it?
If it's the right ROM for your phone you'll be able to flash it even without HSPL, but it has to be an official update, check on the HTC website for your IMEI.
I suggest you to use HSPL to have a very higher choose, there are lots of ROMs here, official ones are outdated nowadays.
ohhh ok thanks!!... is there any rom that lets me use htc sense on the diamond?
Sense is WM6.5
If you are going to flash a 6.5 ROM you need to unlock it and HardSPL etc
TouchFlo is the 6.1 version of sense, its almost the same without the eye candy
Hi,
Check this out and pick what suits you best.

I've been using GTX for a couple days w/out problems, although it's not the fastest ROM I've ever used looks-goodies/speed ratio is very reasonable.
Of course you have to HSPL your phone before flashing.
Also It's highly recommended to use radio 1.17.25.09 which I think is the latest.
I've had it installed even before flashing GTX and used it with wm 6.5 ROMs in USA, Mexico, Canada, Germany & Greece w/out problems. It's Quad-Band.
