HardSPL + MTTY, an almost bricked HTC Diamond! - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

I really need some help!
I was following the the post The DEFINITIVE MTTY Thread!! REVISED 02-11-09 and I made a mistake as follows;
blanktruth said:
Ok, first of all I did not think that it was this dangerous to use MTTY!.
I followed everything and came to these lines
---------------------
Cmd>task 8
Cmd>
---------------------
But after Cmd>task 8 my device restarted immediately before the second line Cmd> appears and I panicked and disconnected my device and pushed the wrong buttons while "Touch Diamond" logo was on the screen.
Now, nothing happens. I can not start from the beginning because I can not start the bootloader by pushing Vol Down and the small red reset button...
Is there anything else left for me to try? Or should I throw my HTC to garbage?

Now, I do not know how, but I brought my HTC to bootloader mode and now I can see it via MTTY. But I mistakenly formatted the Internal Storage while I was trying to bring my HTC to bootloader.
Is there any way to upload the DIAMIMG.nbh file to Internal Storage? Or should I follow a different way to save my HTC Diamond?

i have the same probnlem!! with my diam300
my bootloader show not Diam300 64m but only 64M on the first position in 3color mode... plz help

Connect the Diamond and run the customruu.exe from your desktop, this should work.

how to connect if i used mtty... its clear everything what i have on device storage and in bootloader canot start stock or developed rom...
if i want start hard spl its say invalid model it....

The only thing to do now is to flash back a stock ROM or use a custom ROM with the RUU.

Solved!...

First of, your device is supposed to soft-reset after the "task 8" command and you should have been holding down the "Volume Down" and "Back Buttons" to begin flashing your new ROM. The whole idea of using MTTY is to format your Main Storage and flash a new ROM. Therefor you should have loaded the ROM that you wanted to flash onto your Internal Storage.

Thank you for your reply.
Actually I had uploaded the ROM to my internal storage, but during trying to bring my phone to bootloader mode, I formatted the internal storage...
Anyway, what I did now is, first I opened the USB Connection feature from ActiveSync, and then used CustomRUU.exe to Flash the ROM...
Everything is solved now...
Thank you very much all...

bootloader is all you need to revive the phone
connect it to usb in bootloader mode and just install an oficial diamond rom from an windows xp pc.
it's easy

Actually the most crucial part was to bringing phone to boot loader mode. And I think I managed that by pushing the Volume Down and Back (the arrow pointing left) buttons immediately after restarting my phone. And I had to do this after taking out the battery and putting it back after 5 sec.
When I pushed these buttons at the start up the phone tried to install the ROM from my internal storage, but as I explained I had deleted it by mistake. Therefore it could not find the ROM. I disconnected my phone from my PC and the screen started to say something like Retrying USB connection or waiting for USB connection, something like that.
I restarted my PC in Digitally Signed feature disabled by pressing F8 during start-up. Reconnected my phone to PC (the screen of the phone was still blinking as waiting or retrying usb connection). And voila the phone screen changed to boot loader mode...
The rest was easy. I opened the USB connection feature from ActiveSync and used CustomRUU.exe with a ROM to flash my phone...
That is all...

1. plug phone in to computer in bootloader
2. run customruu or stock from rom update on computer
3. wait for rom to flash to device
4.???
5.profit

but my booloader dont show model ID: DIAM300 64M what i had befor
and show me only: 64M
and any flash error with invalid model id, i canot flash, rom, stock rom, or hardspl...
understand me.. im not totaly noob... i used mtty X times... but now have this probles

can somebody help me?
my diamond dont have model id...
before i had in bootloader mode DIAM300 64M model id, but now i havent got... its show only 64M,
every rom flash stopped at 1% cose model id error,
every hard spl falsh finished 100% but after flash when device restart write model id error...
i cant do anithing... can somebody help me?

For everyone facing problems after flashing his/her device, take a look at the link in my sig.
There you can find a guide to restore your diamond.

you dont understand me..
i canto flash any rom any hard spl becous my diamond dont have device ID...
in bootloader dont show DIAM300 64M but only 64M
after all flash say error mobile ID...
i try mtty, hard reseted, soft... and nothing
after start its show me only first stock screan, the red text on the right bottom sight dont start: 1.17.25.14
2.100000
geny d2x
its maybe wrong but i forgot what waz here...
how can change device model ID? form 64M back to my stock DIAM300 64M?

Try another version of Hard-SPL, some people report that 1.40 not fully works.
I suggest you try 1.94 Olinex.

my diamond is death... if somebody know how can heal it... plz write me...
my device ID is missing... so i cant flash any rom, any hard spl, any radio...

try this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409425&highlight=invalid+model+id

im not sure but i dont think one can brick his/her phone after hard spl, thats the reason of hard spl in the first place that u dont brick it. boot loader is always present

Guide
if you are using Windows XP try the following steps:
Connect your device to your PC
In Active Sync > connection settings > check Allow USB connections (which you have un-checked while doing MTTY)
Find a ROM with CustomRUU.exe / diamond wrapper
Now enter into bootloader mode(forget about the device ID)
Go to customRUU.exe and run it
Follow the ROM installation steps
This will help you installing your new ROM.
I had a similar problem and i resolved it by follwoing the above steps.

Brick Hermes, stuck at WM6 Screen, help!

Recently tried upgrading my SPV M3100 from WM5 to black WM6. Everything was going fine and I had installed the following
SPL (Bootloader) version 2.10.Olipro (HardSPL v7)
Radio version 1.43.00.00 (optional)
Was updating to ROM version: Windows Mobile 6 LVSW 160607 when USB cable was disconnected before installation ands I am now left with WM6 screen only
Can anyone help?
If you stuck in the wm6 boot screen and have flashed HardSPL 2.10 already you can just enter the bootloader and reflash your ROM again. Why do you use nearly 6 months old ROM (LVSW)?
Did you try to reflash the ROM?
Just switch to the bootloader and run the update again.
If the updater is complaining about "Not able to do so" you might need another ROM, but that method worked to or three times for me.
Cheers,
Jago
tried raflashing but activesync won't pick up phone
you do not need active sync to pick it up. Just enter the bootloader and run RUU.
how do you reflash without activesync?

Simply - flashing process itself is not done by the Active sync (its icon is grey when flashing). I have tried to flash a ROM this way and it works. You just have to input correct values to the RUU yourself. Bootloader is the tri color screen. You can access it by holding power and ok button while using the stylus to soft reset the device. Hermes will pick up the usb connection.
Please read the WIKI and flash an original WM6/WM5 rom before attempting to flash a cooked rom.. then make sure you know what you are doing before flashing the cooked.

Put your device into bootloader mode.
Connect it via USB to your PC.
Run the RUU on your PC (like if you had Active sync working).
Flash the ROM.
(should work with all cooked ROMs)
Update: I tried it now with the Schaps 4.20 - it is working.
When you run ruu it should create ROMUpgradeUt.exe if it says it fails to find the device just run this. I usually take a copy before clicking to close the error box.
where do u locate RUU.exe
sorry I'm not an expert in this
RUUWrapper.exe should be in the folder with the image you are flashing. Sorry if I confused you saying ruu.
When you download the cooked rom it comes in rar or zip containing 2 files - one with extension .NBH and the second one is RUUWrapper.exe (resource upgrade unit), unpack them to one folder and run RUU.exe Be sure to flash only ROM for your device otherwise you will kill it for good.
tried running RUU but get error 260, i.e. cannot pick up phone on USB
See post 12
yeah, tried running ROMUpgradeUt.exe, but still no joy

If this does not work for you - then you can use flashing from the SD card (no USB needed for this kind of flashing) . But try what markafreeman suggests first.
Lets try some troubleshooting:
Whne you connect your device in the bootloader (red green blue screen) to your pc what does it say?
In the white part of the screen on your device it should say USB - then it will work.
If not you can still try flashing the ROM from the SD card - you will need a card reader though for this kind of flashing.

My FSC-n560 is bricked. Help please!

Hi!
I was using Newplow's WM6 038 ROM with my N560.
Yesterday I tried to write another ROM(WM6 038 with 8MB pagepool) but during update got an error.. It said it just failed.
Now my N560 is stuck on booting screen(people climbing mountain..)
I tried Warm, Cold, Hard reset but with no luck.
Even the power button doesn't work so I had to remove battery. When I insert battery it powers on by itself.
I can enter bootloader screen by pushing power+record button so I tried to copy rom image file to SD card but it doesn't work.
I tried two ROMs(OS_213U.nbf from Original WM5 ROM and Newplow's) and 3 SD Cards(2GB SD, 1GB MicroSD with Adopter, 16GB SDHC)
Is there any recovery tutorial in bootloader mode?
Help me please!
Sorry for my English.
Have you tried flashing a ROM through the computer rather than the memory card? Try going into bootloader and flashing that way rather than the card.
The pagepool ROM is meant for N560s that have been upgraded to 128Mb RAM... have you upgraded the internal RAM to 128Mb? If you have not, then this may have caused your problem.
I had this problem when flashing to 038 normal RAM (from 035). A hard reset reset to the normal start screen, but nothing worked. However, trying a new burn with the Loox flash tool restarted the process and it worked. I found the cure was to make sure you hard reset the N560 before doing a burn. It appears to be that you have to do this to release enough RAM for the burn program to reside and for "working" storage. You may not have done this.
I suggest you try simply re-running the flashtool with SD/SDHC cards removed, battery in place, on the cradle via your PC, even though it appears stuck. The signals coming from the USB link may wake up the bootloader routine in the N560?
Solved the problem! Thanks for your comments!
I asked same question in Newplow's guestbook and the person who made pagepool rom answered. I used MTTY to revive my pda.
What I did is in below post. need translation
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=55274
Hi all,
I have the same problem. N560 is stick on the himalaya picture. I tried to falsh from WM5 to new rom for Wm6 and after installation the pda stuked. So I did a warm reset and now only the start picture is apperaing. Problem is that battery is down now.
Can someone give more info on the process followed to revive the PDA ? I just cannont read russian (may be Jinsu77 ?)
Many thanks for support in advance
same problem here please please please someone help us
the only thing i can do is the l c:\os_213u.nbf on mtty program and nothing else happend to the machine
sorry for my english
read, and pay attention here:

POST 203.
It was me asking on Newplow's guestbook.
In case you're using Vista, you need some trick to be able to rom update. Read below.
http://www.modaco.com/content/windo...u-on-vista-it-can-be-done-the-ultimate-guide/
And then you need to download MTTY (I used version 1.42, got it by googling) and follow below steps.
(used google translation from 4pda.ru)
------------------------------------------------------------
For rom update without ActiveSync.
1) take this set of extract, copy it to the folder with the firmware.
2) copy the file os_213u.nbf example in C: \
3) You press the button Recorder + food and poke in the hole reset (Recorder button and hold until you eat dolphins)
4) plug the device to a PC, the Task Manager, shooting process - wcescomm.exe
5) Run mtty, choose Port: USB, connect.
6) If mtty caused an error and shut down, simply restart mtty, if not typed commands, then repeat the procedure with paragraph 3.
7) in mtty command, enter: (first letter in kommande - a little l l от слова from the word L L oad)
> l l c:\os_213u.nbf c: \ os_213u.nbf
Since the end of the process will be an inscription about the error, remove the device from the PC.
9) Run rom update, zhmete "next", until you see dolphins.
10), plug the device to a PC and program.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hope this helps you all
in advance sorry for my english
I am doing all the instructions carefully and the mtty show this
Image Download Finish
OEMFlashWrite(A0000000h,8C200000h,1A0F023Ah)
Download Fails !!!
OEMFlashWrite error(12)

the pda shos the dolphins and the full blue bar
after without change anything i run the PocketLOOX5xxFlashTool that i have in the same folder with the :
EnterBootLoader.exe
OS_213U.nbf (originally rom)
RUUServer.dll
RUU.dll
and the only thing i can see is that the PocketLOOX5xxFlashTool is trying to find the pda without any luck
also the pda is stucked in the same screen with the dolphins and the blue bar
do you see any mistake in this procedure
Helppp!!! please

have you closed EVERY process of activesync before proceding with mtty?
I close the wcescomm.exe and the rapimgr.exe is there anything else?
The pocket LOOX 5xx FlashTool cant connect with the N560 and at the and says that Error"The language in this Flash Image update (ENGLISH) differs from that on your device()!" and i have always english rom exept maybe from the last rom "the killer" with the 128MB rom that i dont know if it is an english or something else because the device never opens to see
After flashing in MTTY(don't care about error messages), you need to unplug your n560 from PC. And then proceed romupdate until you see the dolphin picture. Now you plug n560 to PC and cilck next and wait for a while.. Hope it works!
I change the language of the rom and it works
thank very much all of you
At all they have Probs with flash from SD Card: only use a Card with 512MB! I think a Card greater then can't read by the Bootloader....
hey.
i am compeletly new here. I have the same with my n560. I tried to upgrade to 128mb but after restart I see only climbing. I tried everything here but on dolphins afterr line is blue it is finished. that I am unpluging device. starting looxflastool for 560 and first is trying to connect by active sync and that when no connection made I see dolphins on left screen of flash tool window. than I am pluging again and after couple secs I see that: Error"The language in this Flash Image update (ENGLISH) differs from that on your device. I tried to change rom on every language but not working as well. PLEASE HELP
if that helps than i will add than on top when delfins i see on 560 is two lines. first is typed 2.14.G4 on second directly below is 2.15.
and when mtty 1.42 finishing flashing i see following:

Need help!!! Please!!!
I bricked my N560. I tried to downgrade from WM6 to WM5 and now I see only delfins and in the first line "2.14.G4" and in the second line "2.15"

You can usually get back to the boot loader if you do a hard reset. I am sure you know how, if not you will find it in the FSC CDROM manual that came with the device. Let us know if this works? I have got stuck at this point too, so I know it works..... hopefully!

Help-Artemis locked at startup screen

Hi,
I'm using Artemis with one of Tom's ROM. The device was working well. But today suddenly the device won't start up - it is locked at the startup screen showing the SPL, IPL etc. I can enter the bootloader.
Can anybody tell me how to flash the ROM at this stage?
Flash from bootloader
Hi!
Please download an official rom and keep pressed the Power and Record buttons. You will see a screen with 3 colors (red green blue). Connect the USB cable and wait for Activesync. After this start the original rom flasher and follow the instructions. If you can start the Windows, you should flash the USPL again and you can flash cooked roms. If you flashed a new one, i think you should also upgrade the radio rom.
Sorry for my English
well i'll give it a try.
BTW will activesync work if the phone is not booting up?
sure it will, but make sure you have the only phone pluged in, nothing else, and disable all firewalls and antivriuses.
Good luck
i flashed with htc official rom and it worked first. after soft resetting a few time (due to program installation) the phone again back to earlier state.
it is showing:
ipl 3.13.0001
spl 3.13.0000
gsm 2.94.90
os 3.13.0.0
and stuck at this screen.
i tried to update the phone again with the same rom - but i'm getting error 270.
do i need to unlock cid before flashing?
but i can't use the uspl tool as i can't connect to activesync.
pls help.
make sure the battery is fully charged again.
Restart your PC, isbale ll antivirus and firewalls
Better if flashing in XP PC
put PPC in Boating status
Flash Shipped ROM
Specify which software caused you the trouble and do not install it again
CID unlock PPC
Flash any cooked ROM.
once i flashed the phone with the shipped rom successfully. The phone was CID unlocked then. But now when I try to flash the shipped again i'm getting an error message (error 292 or something - stating-invalid vendor id)

chance are you have stuffed your bootloader...
start from scratch again by running uspl:

USPL needs activesync running. Can you tell me how to run USPL when I can't boot into windows?
well,
its been some time, but i am pretty sure uspl puts your device into bootloader and operates from there...
have you tried setting it into bootloader, connecting via usb and simply starting uspl?
running a normal setup-routine, there is no need to start it from wm either-simply put it into bootloader and start setup!
greetz
Well i tried that. But it seems that USPL doesn't work without activesync.
i've also tried flashing with SD card, but after a brief "Checking SD card content" message the phone goes back to bootloader.
Someone helpppp pls.
are u sure your sd card is correctly configured, according to the wiki entry- especially part "if above fails" ...?
if all steps fail, assumed you performed them correctly, you might try taking out battery and leave the device fully without power overnight...and restart it the next morning
I've used a 512MB SD card - formatted it- and copied the OS file as ARTEIMG.nbh - put the sd card in the phone and started the phone in bootloader mode.
I think there is nothing more to do.
I can enter the bootloader, connect the phone to PC in USB mode. So, I hope that my phone is not bricked.
But how to revive it?
if you are in bootloader, i dont see why you shouldnt be able to flash!!!
try another sd-card, use another xp computer, exchange the usb cable...
yust to be certain: have you left out battery over-night?
...and what are the details stated on boot-loader screen (numbers)?
oh, and I get the feeling you are not working exactly as told:
in your PC right-click on Computer, then select Manage
Select Disk Manager and then delete existing partition
create a new partition with max size 256MB
format this partition in FAT32

...i dont have my micro-sd-card-adapter at hand atm., but there sure will be possibilities formatting your sd card accordingly...try administrative tools/computermanagement/storage/diskmanagement under xp, boot your pc with a diskpartitioner like acronis disk director...
i can only advise you to keep trying...but as long as you can not say for sure sd-card-flashing is working correctly, i wouldnt give up...
and as far as flshing bootloader via usb/activesync goes, i can only say i once screwed my device due to insufficiant battery power during sd-card-flashing and thought it was bricked just at the point you are stuck now!!! - totally resetting it with the power-oiut-method, i.e. battery out overnight, revived it!!!
than agin i sure as hell did everything the way it was ment o be done...and nothing worked until i switched to another pc/ usb-cable!!!
so, to sum it up, DONT GIVE UP!!! bootloader is showing...so there must be a way to get this to work...

How to Flash HardSPL (Using Olipro 1.20) - USB or SD

Upgrade to Hard-SPL Olipro 1.20 - USB or SD Just Added SD Card Method at Bottom of this Post
10 Step Program
Pulled from Website dated: Monday August 06, 2007 by ??? if someone knows, I'll give credit.
Recovered and Updated Monday October 27, 2009 by SuperSport
because the WiKi has vanished
Hard SPL will allow you to flash cooked ROMs without SuperCID’ing your device and also will protect your device from being bricked in a bad flash. If a bad flash occurs it should remain in bootloader, and you can re-flash another ROM.
Caution!!! Flashing Hard-SPL will Probably Hard Reset your device!!!! Backup all data FIRST!!!
Before you proceed, check which SPL is on your device:
*** Enter Tri Color Screen ***
--Unplug your phone from USB - Helps to avoid freezing USB Ports
--Hold down the Power & Camera Buttons
--While still holding them down, press the Reset Button using the Stylus
--Release the Reset Button, but continue to hold the Power/Camera buttons until you see the Tri Color Screen
*** Enter Tri Color Screen ***
If your SPL is 1.30.Olipro, 1.20.Olipro, or 9.99 CP, then you already have Hard-SPL on your device and can skip flashing HardSPL, although, I recommend using Olipro 1.20 to avoid problems.
If you want to continue flashing Olipro HardSPL 1.20:
Press the Reset Button using your Stylus. Wait for your phone to start back into Windows. Plug the USB Cable into your phone and PC. Verify ActiveSync or WMDC is connected properly. Now you can Flash.
1. Download "Olipro HardSPL 1.20.zip" in attachment below
2. Unzip the Files, and Run the Program "Olipro HardSPL 1.20.exe" This is a small AutoFlash file I created using Olipro 1.20
3. Windows Vista and Windows 7 may confirm you want to run the program. Choose YES.
4. Check the check box, click ‘Next’
5. Also Check this check box, click ‘Next’
6. In the next window, click the ‘Update’ button
This will show the version number of the ROM, radio, or in this case bootloader that you are about to flash.
7. After the version number has appeared, click 'Next'
8. In the following window, click ‘Next’, your phone may ask if it's ok to run the program, Tap 'Yes'.
(After you click this, the flash will begin, so do not disconnect your device or do anything on your computer)
9. A Progress bar will appear on your computer screen, and your trinity will display a grey screen with progress bar. Be patient while your device is being updated. This will only take a moment.
10. Once your device is finished updating, if it did not automatically soft reset, Press the Reset Button with the Stylus. Click the ‘Finish’ button to exit the RUU program.
To confirm Hard-SPL is on your device, re-enter Tri Color Screen following directions above. You should see the following:
Hard SPL 1.20.Olipro
TRIN100
IPL-0.50 (your device may show IPL-1.00)
TRIN100 MFG
SPL-1.20.Olipro
CONGRATULATIONS!! You have now installed Olipro's Hard-SPL 1.20 on your device using USB Method!! Press the Reset Button with your Stylus to restart.
**********************************
Alternate SD Card Method
**********************************
For those who would rather use their SD Card for this (Maybe your USB Port is not functioning). For this method, the way I'm describing, your phone must be running a version of Windows Mobile. Can be any Version, 5-7. If your phone does not currently run, flash back the OEM ROM that came with it Originally. You can find some in my signature.
Caution!!! Flashing Hard-SPL may Hard Reset your device!!!! Backup all data FIRST!!!
1. Be sure you have a, Non-SDHC, SD Memory Card.
2. Be sure the card is formatted Fat32 and Without a Label.
3. Download the attached HardSPL SD.zip file and extract it's contents. Copy both files, SSPL-TRIN.exe and TRINIMG.nbh, to the Root of your SD Card.
4. On your phone, use File Explorer to browse to the Root of your SD Card.
5. Tap the SSPL-TRIN.exe file. This should run the file.
6. On some phones, you will see a security message come up. Select 'Yes' to run the program.
7. You should now see a Grey screen with Blue Lettering. It will be asking you to Press power button. Go ahead and press the power button.
8. You will see the update progress for a short moment, it will restart, and update again, then show "Update Complete - UPDATE SUCCESS" If you see this message, it has worked.
9. Press the Reset Button with your Stylus to Restart
10. Delete the two files from your SD Card (TRINIMG.nbh, SSPL_TRIN.exe). To confirm Hard-SPL is on your device, Enter Tri Color Screen following directions above. You should see the following:
Hard SPL 1.20.Olipro
TRIN100
IPL-0.50 (your device may show IPL-1.00)
TRIN100 MFG
SPL-1.20.Olipro
CONGRATULATIONS!! You have now installed Olipro's Hard-SPL 1.20 on your device using SD Method!! Press the Reset Button with your Stylus to restart.
Maybe if this could be Stickied?
Thanks, it's a very nice guide for Trinty users, clean and detailed, I also recommand using Olipro 1.20 and not 1.30 to avoid problems, especially with 6.5 roms the annoying "WLAN ERRROR" sometimes seen in bootloader mode ...
Yes, make this "Sticky"
Brds,
nAr
Thanks narshorn! Someone else posted this a long time ago on a WiKi I believe, and I just recovered what I could of the original web page and then rewrote it to work with my files. The original page was removed from it's server, so I grabbed as much of the cached version of it as I could, thus, I don't know who did the original.
Also, thank you for the confirmation of using Olipro 1.20 and not 1.30. That was my belief, and I've heard others, but I'm glad you confirmed.

Because stupid me forgot that if you don't have HardSPL on your phone, then TRI COLOR SCREEN flashing is not possible. Doh! FIXED above.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. When I physically went through the steps, I forgot I still had HardSPL on my phone from previous.
I just went through the steps AGAIN after removing HardSPL, and verifed it works correctly as listed in Post #1.
thankz for promptly reply
btw, what d diff between HardSPL 1.20 and 1.30?

I've seen many reports that 1.30 caused issues. Olipro, 'the guy who made our Trinity's safe for Flashing', stopped updating the thread, but if you read it, you will find many users reporting problems and asking for the thread to be updated to go back to 1.20.
I've been using 1.20 since it was released, and have NEVER had a problem with it. And believe me, I Flash a LOT!!! I'm expecting my poor Trinity to catch fire any day now.
Oh... Thx for the tutor...that what i need now...
Good job someone remembered howto
Thanks for the reminder - managed to forget how to enter tri-colour screen in the three months since I last reflashed.
I need help here
I have tried each of the methods.
though your explanation and step by step instructins are very clear, istill can't seem to get Olipro's HSPL on my phone. in the case of using active sync, after it enters the tri color screen nothing happens again and the i get an error message (ERROR 260).
When i tried using the SD method, when i tapped the SSPL_TRIN file, it goes stright to the tri color screen ths is the information i have there
TRIN100
IPL-SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
and for this reason i can seem to flash any rom with success each time it only gets to the tri colou screen and i get the ERROR 260 message.
Anyone with any idea on how i can fix this.
thanks in advance

Did you copy the TRINIMG.nbh file to your SD Card also? Was your SD Card formatted FAT32 and No Label?
Using the SD Method, you do not need to be connected to your Computer. Copy both files to SD and do all work from phone.
Let me know if that works or not.
Remove the HARDSPL...
Hi,

Only do this if you do not plan to flash any more Custom ROMs, and would like to stick with the OEM ROM (You may Brick your Phone if you flash from the Stock SPL):
Download the "HardSPL SD.zip " file from the first post.
Extract the files
Copy ONLY the "SSPL_TRIN.exe" file to your SD Card.
Run the "SSPL_TRIN.exe" file from your SD Card (This puts your phone into a special mode that will allow the HardSPL to be overwritten)
Now, your phone should be in bootloader mode with:
TRIN100
IPL_SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL_1.07.ds
At this point, you can flash your OEM ROM that includes the Original SPL and IPL.
I use this one: http://www.mediafire.com/?v5yjt1zvgjm

Your mobile screen is showing the correct information, with the exception of USB not showing. As soon as you get to the Tri Color Screen, try removing then reconnecting the USB connection and see if that makes any difference.
Also, when the Tri Color Screen comes up, does your computer ask to install a driver? If it does, be sure to allow that.

Glad to hear you are going. Now you are safe to flash custom ROMs.
Also, remember that each time you flash back to the OEM ROM for any reason, it replaces the HardSPL with the stock one. You will then need to flash the HardSPL back again. At least this is the case for the OEM that I use.

[Q] Touch Diamond not booting and ROM update not working

Hi all,
I wanted to put a new ROM on my Touch Diamond p3700, and managed to bust it.
I followed the MTTY guide from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
I got through the steps OK, but at some point, after restarting the device I noticed that it stop booting.
It would display only TOUCH diamond, and that's it. No other red numbers with RGD.
I tried a hard reset. Nothing. I also did a hard reset with a moviNAN format, and nothing. (though I think this might have made matters worse)
I tried a RUU, and it stays at 0% for a couple of minutes and then gives an error on the PC.
I tried an original ROM, but it says Not allowed for this Vendor ID (goes up to 1%).
I tried Hard SPL 1.24 a couple of times but this also stays at 0% for a couple of minutes and then gives an error.
I am totally out of ideas, but I'm only an extreme beginner, so I do hope there will be a solution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
try with HSPL 1.93
hspl 1.93
Hi.
Thanks for the reply
I assume you're talking about this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9246383&postcount=2
I downloaded the archive, extracted it.
As I said, the phone doesn't boot, so I can't connect it to activesync,
but I did go to bootloader (red green blue screen), inserted the cable and showed USB.
Reading your steps I saw that I might have missed the hspl step inside the MTTY tut. So basically I did the mtty part without the hspl.
I connected the phone to the PC, it sais USB, I ran ROMUpdateUtility.exe, the grey screen appeared with 0%, stayed like that for 5 minutes and program gives an error that it can't communicate.

there is no HSPL step to perform in mtty mode. go to bootloader and report back the SPL version you have.
there is no reason you shudnt be unable to format. maybe you might need a jumpSPL if ur previous spl is hard spl-ed
In bootloader is says:
DIAM 100 64M
SPL-1.93.0000
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x32

you are still having the stock SPL...
lets get you HSPL...give me a few minutes while i come with attachements and instructions
download+unzip to C:\ (recommended)
- connect ur device in bootloader mode
- dont do mtty at this stage
-run the DiamondCustomRUU.exe
report back
ruu err
I get this
Code:
ERROR[262]: UPDATE ERROR

did u try flashing this HSPL?
whats ur current location so i can recommend a flash of stock rom.
I'm in Romania. My phone was locked on Vodafone.
What do you mean "flashing this HSPL"? This error I get when running DiamonCustomRUU.exe in the archive you posted. It starts the progress bar on both PC and phone, stays at 0% and after 5 minutes, it gives that error.
okay. download this. and run the diamond-sspl.bat
if it runs successfully and ur screen turns black...then run DiamondCustomRUU.exe again to flash SPL 1.93
if the batch file does not run let me know...
btw i wil be here till we can sort this out
I connected the device in bootloader. Shows USB.
I ran diamond-sspl.bat
and says:
Warning: no device connected.
Waiting for device to connect...
A window pops up, and says if I want to retry. Hitting yes just pops again.
So basically it says that it can't copy whatever it needs on the device because it's not connected. But the device is connected in bootloader and says USB.
okies....lemme make a cross check of the HSPL on my device and report back
in the meantime, do you have your STOCK ROM? the original rom that came with your device.
if you dont, but still know the rom version to download, check here....
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows mobile&model=Diamond
in the event we cant proceed any further, atleast we can recover ur device to start up again with batch file...
Try this version of HSPL which allow a temporary SSPL on ur device in order to allow a transition of SPL..
as usual report back. this is the last step...after this if there is no progress we may have to resort to stock rom and then start at step 1.
btw HSPL 1.93 confirmed working on my device.
The same issue. Error 262.
Isn't the problem somewhere in the communication between the PC and device?
When I run ROMUpdateUtility.exe the device does go to the grey screen with progressbar at 0%, but that's about it.
I don't have my original ROM, and I don't know the version,
but I think this should be it
RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_2.03.479.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship.exe
You can try restarting your PC and then try to confirm any USB conenction problems.
But if on the device it appears USB in the bottom half of the bootloader screen it means the connection is okay.
Now this is a flash (see attachement) i only use as a last resort. If this doesnt flash, consider downloading the rom file you jus mentioned and flash it...
Download the attachment and run the .exe file. Follow the steps...if it works...try flashing any HSPL u have downloaded.
also try this link from htc.
http://www.htc.com/ro/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=2&dl_id=483
input ur device serial (which is under ur battery) and see if u can download. this is more direct approach to download the correct rom file for ur device.
YES!
Fixed it.
I switched USB ports, left the default driver (2007, not 2004 as was said in MTTY), used the ROM I said above and it worked.
Thanks a lot for your assistance.
good!
and if ur up for another try. then start with the attachement HSPLwSSPL
dont do any mtty. jus try to see if u can flash HSPLwSSPL...
but if ur done for the day, i wish u a rest well earned.... hehe...
anyways feel free to drop a PM in my inbox shud u decide...
