Hey everyone,
I've a problem with my touch Diamond. The Touchscreen doesn't response from any pressure. But the device itself works fine. So first a softreset didn't work out, a hard reset didn't ether. so flased it back to a original rom and. I'm trying to flash to the originel 1.34 spl with this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2324837&postcount=20 . because i want to send it back, or if someone knows how to solve it keep it ofcource. The device is stuck in the "press on the screen to calibarate". I go to the bootloading menu used the volumedown - reset button. When I flashed the orginel spl it just keep saying 1.40olinex. So how can I get my touchscreen working again or flash back to the original spl.
Btw, sorry for my bad gramma
I've to solve the problem one way or the other, but if they are going to get it monday in this state i've no warrenty.
Hi there,
I'd like to return my Diamond (O2 XDA Diamond) to stock SPL (1.37) since my touchscreen is out of order and I'd like to send it to O2.
I already flashed the stock ROM and now want to flash the stock SPL.
I was following several tutorials on how to do this, but had no luck.
The problem, I think, is that I need to confirm something on my device before flashing (SSPL gives a warning in my understanding), but I can't since I'm stuck on the "Tap on Screen to start Windows mobile device" (is in German for me, but the first screen after Hardreset).
Any Hints on passing that screen via Registry or flashing Stock SPL without any confirmation is highly appreciated.

You can do thAT, on this way
Plug the USB cable to connect your Diamond with PC, make sure ActiveSync connected.
Copy "SSPL-Manual.exe" to Internal Storage on your Diamond.
On your Diamond, execute "SSPL-Manual.exe" and confirm to trust the excutable. Your Diamond screen will turn "BLACK" and ActiveSync will disconnect. *This is normal behavior***
Execute the ROMUpdateUtility.exe.
Your Diamond will automatically restart when finished.
To make sure stock SPL has been flashed back, press and hold "Vol-" key and use stylus to press reset once. until you see the tricolor screen and if you can see version of spl which before you flashed, it's ok!

You are welcome, try this, i discover this combination of buttons
ENTER+VOL UP = ALIGN SCREEN
that means, with this combinations of buttons, you can directly enter ALIGN SCREEN options, and try to align screen , sometimes this helped me, cause my touch screen has same problem, it start to freeze randomly, i don't know why, sometimes in right, sometimes in left corner, up-down, randomly, i noticed that htc diamond when is exposed , when i'm out and it's sunny weather, it stop to responding on touch, one my friend specialist for mobiles, tell me, maybe this happen, cause bellow screen in some pda is some thin rubber, and from heat it start to expand, and that cause problems, maybe this situation is in htc diamond...
greetz and good luck

Hi
I have similar problem and I will tell you what I did to get back to Stock SPL.
1. Flash the BSBs latest ROM from this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506533 . Either by RUU or moving the diaming.nbh to the storage, this ROM does not require allignment or any other input.
2. Install My Mobiler from http://mymobiler.com in your computer, where you can see your mobile screen in your computer and operate using your mouse.
3. Then return to the stock SPL as given in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2324829&postcount=39.
4. Flash your ROM again from the HTC. This can be done once the system connects to the phone.
I am successful in doing the above.
Regards,
V.Balaji
Hi Guys,
I am aware of how to upgrade a ROM, how to Use HardSPL and how modifying in general works, although I think I may have really broken the phone now.
I had OliNex 1.40 installed since forever. I have used several Roms in the past including EnergyROM, Ahen's Roms and I have currently been using Makeveral's BSB6.5O Rom, and it was working great.
The last time I tried to use the unlock, i tried to flash it with the 'Subrata' unlock package (the one with Step 1,2 and 3' folders. It didnt work both times I tried so I gave up. It said it was unable to write to the phone. I reflashed with BSB Rom and all was well.
Today, I found a seperate unlocker. It was a simple .exe file that opened up what appeared to be the 'CustomRUU' application. The screen initially went black and then the program said that it lost connectivity. I did read that it used Cmonex HardSPL but I did it anyway (I take responsability for this error) and from then on, the phone will not boot. No matter what combination of Hard reset button combinations I use, nothing happens. No vibration, no light around the centre button that I can see, nothing.
So is there anything, anything at all that I can do? Or have i totally F**ked it?
I have also done alot of searching both on here, PPCgeaks, all the forums.
Let me know, cheers guys.
I had a similar problem: Screen was black, no reaction from the phone. But i was able to connect it to my computer, it was not really detected, even though
i was able to flash a new Rom with a Custom RUU. Perhaps you could try that?
Try to change the rom . Pull out the stylus , Press the reset button and hold the VOLUME DOWN and the right down button . After connect to pc
The phone is in an Off state - I recharged the battery in it overnight - no white glowing ring around the centre button. No combination of buttons work - nothing happens and the device is off still.
OK, regardless of what has happened, Ive sent the phone to Victoria (Australia) to be repaired or replaced under warranty.
I just hope that it is so scrambled that they cant figure out that the device has been toyed with - will keep everyone updated!
btw - does anyone understand what technicians with more advanced tools would be able to determine (if anything)? Do they use special hardware to view the contents of the ROM or how does it all work?
thanks friends
Well..not exactly, but they have probably tools to examine the flash/memory/parts of the phone. interesting question
Update!
I sent the phone away to the Three mobile repair centre - the phone is back, fully repaired and Running BsB again.... just awesome.
it seem they replaced all the components of the phone except for the shell itself, I dont really know why they didnt just replace the phone? lol
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I told them the phone wouldn't boot after an overnight charge - thanks 3!
Sorry for bumping.
I have the same problem! I used the same program; 'DiamonCustomRUU.exe'
The screen became black. I can't open the bootmenu, soft- and hardreset doesn't work
It's a Dutch branded Vodafone TD.
I have to send it to Vodafone for repairing?
i flashed nfsfans rom, everything went fine but when it restarted it just stays on the verizon bootscreen and wont let me do anything i think its bricked but im not really sure please help me ive tried soft resseting and removing the battery it still does the same thing i dnt know what to do
i had the same problem.. somebody said there was a fix i didnt find it, the problem was probably missing a step in using the unlocker, it asks you to unplug and replug the phone so it can close activesync, i didnt do it and ended up where you are.
i got annoyed after trying to find a fix for an hour or 2 and called verizon because i didnt buy insurance for it, luckily i was still in my year warrant the vogue comes with and they sent me a new 1, i just had to send them my broken one back
its not really bricked i dont think, but verizon couldnt get it to reset from their side so it's considered that way
ya but is obviously no under warrenty any more so what can I do to fix it????

Give us a little more info
what does the SPL in bootloader show?
what radio is showing on the 1st splash screen?
If all else fails place into bootloader and flash a shipped ROM and start over.
yeah. whitey is correct.
what bootloader did you use?
you probably used .41 or .40 unlcoker instead of 2.31.
im kind of a noob how do i find the stuff??
uhh. just go to bootloader mode (quad color screen with seriel when not plugged in and usb when plugged in via usb)
(power+camera+reset hole) then tell us what you see.
just type all of the info on the screen.
alright it says
vogu100
spl-0.36.0000
cpld-3
hmm. i would recommend you downgraded your rom+radio with a nongps rom because you used a nongps unlocker.
use a tnz one
ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/Vogue/Users/Im...RUU_signed.rar
and then update the radio using 3.42.5 or 3.42.3
-sorry can't find link to exact radio update, but you should update via sd card-
then load stock rom
then unlock with 2.31 unlocker (cokeman's)
then flash custom rom
i installed nfsfANS ROM but i only get date when i make a call it says something about athintcation
is this when you only make a call?
if so. then you call your carrier.
(for verizon its *228)
and press option 1.
idk about sprint, bell, altell. but you need to authorize your phone to make phone calls, receive sms, and use data. in order to use data/send-receive pix messages, you need to use a cab. avalaible here.

Hi,
My diamond was water damaged a while ago, I let it dry out for a couple of weeks and it did not work, I bought a new diamond and tried the battery in my old one and to my amazment it started up, well to the touch diamond screen anyway, it didn't display any red writing and the sreen stayed on but went black after that. I though the radio must have been gone so put it in the bootloader and tried to flash the same radio I had before 1.17, the white screen came up and all went fine but still the same problem!
I really need the data on my internal storage and so need to at least be able to read that. I don't care about it working forever thats why I bought another one as a doner!
Could someone please tell me what happened and how to fix it! Why does it not get past this? Also I have hard reset it, reflashed the original ROM successfully, reflashed hardspl and reflashed the Stock SPL but it still does the same!
In case it helps the bootloader says:
DIAM100 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Wrong Platform(v0x0)
Does anyone know how to, or if there is any way to read the internal storage from the bootloader? I know the phone can read it to flash a ROM from it so why not to get my files off? I can get it into the bootloader so does anyone know any software that can help me to read the files and get them off?
Thanks.
HardSPL HTC repair
Also I called HTC and they said they could try and repair it but I'm not sure about sending it to them as I do want my data but it has HardSPL installed although they did say due to it being water damaged it is an out of warrenty repair and would cost me. Does it matter then if HardSPL is installed as I'm paying for it? I didn't ask them as I wasn't sure. Is there any way to install the stock SPL from the bootloader? As I did try but it didn't seem to work! I am not willing to destroy it further as some people do as I need the data.

if you wahck it in the microwave and swap the stickers around (Serial one under the battery) you ca nclaim on warranty, and end up with 2 new Diamonds
pls, a rescue ? I have the same problem, my HTC worked perfectly, till i broke the display, I've fixed it, it worked, but after a day ot two,...it crashed. And I get the same message when I enter the bootloader.
Infinite restart / reboot loop
What a pity! Any progress in this topic?
I have also this same problem. My Diamond crashed a while ago. It happened suddenly after I activated the WiFi module during normal daily use. The unit restarted itself and stucked in an infinite restart loop since then. I reflashed everything possible with success (also stock ROM), radio ROM etc. No way - the unit is rebooting and rebooting in the very same restart loop.
So I can not access the internal storage and can not save my data. Though there are no pictures of my new-born son, but there are some important files and notes I would love to save, but how?
Is there any possibility to access the internal torage from the bootloader?
Is it maybe possible to open the unit - voiding the warranty - and resolder the internal flash storage on another diamond (a working one)?
I suppose there is some problem with the radio, which causes the reboot. The remaining parts are probably OK. Maybe there is some way to deactivate the radio (WiFi module) from the bootloader (MTTY tool)?
Any hints highly apprechiated!!
Thanks guys!

Hi,
Perhaps you could flash another rom to it. but remember you need to clear the ram with mtty before flashing the new rom. get the diamond unlock tool from olipro (its there in the stickies, i guess) and/or flash new radio series then install the new rom of your choice.
Have a shot, and tell us how it goes.
thanks.
