I'm in serious need of help - i tried to upgrade my sx56 to the 4.00.05 with voice command and now i can't get the back light on, i've got no phone and i can't even get the usb connection to notice the unit.
HELP - what do i do to fix this problem
thanks :shock:
Can you get to the bootloader? If it was only the operating system that you flashed you should be able to recover it. You will need an sd/mmc card, a card reader/writer and xdatools. All the info is here on the forum. You can download a rom from www.yorch.net and choose at the bottom of screen "sd card flashing".
forgive my ignorance but where would i find the bootloader and i unfortunately don't have a sd card as yet - i've been looking into that guess i'll be gettng one pretty soon
may i assume that this will resolve the issue that my usb connection is not even recognizing that my unit exists
thanks

hey cruisin-thru, i have just purchased a 256 card - will i be able to resolve this problem or am i totally screwed
thanks

Hi ...
since ur gonna flash ur XDA with SD i may advice you to get a newer ROM than 4.00.05. i recommend either TMO 4.01.00 or A30.09. both you can get cooked at Stefan kitchen at lumpistefan.dyndns.net
once you cook the ROM as .nbf file and download it, u will need SD reader/writer for ur PC. move the file to the SD card and insert it into ur XDA. if it asks u to format it just press NO.
goto the bootloader by pressing and holding the power button while soft reset. it should recognize the card content and ask u to press the action key .... enjoy ur new ROM!
note: if u still want the 4.00.05 ROM, use winzip or winrar to open the exe file and extract the .nbf file and follow the above steps.
good luck ...
thank you for your assistance - i've just purchased the card reader/writer and am about to transfer the .nbf file over
you indidated going to the 4.01.00, can you tell me what difference there is between the different roms
thanks again for all your help

Hi ...
Mainly the diferences are bugs that are fixed in old versions like some issue with the back light, SD card erasing, self rebooting ... etc.
A30.09 is perfect except it has an annoying sound issue and has no extras at all ... that's why I prefer TMO 4.01.00
BTW, I noticed that I just misspelled the kitchen address ... it's http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/
Help please. All my data get lost!
I know the data on the card, but just cannot see them.
From checking the property of datacard, i know that all the data still on it. however, after open the card, just 2 files which i never know, all the others gone.
Don't know what my trinity did on my datacard wile i using the bluetooth internet sharing with my pc. After that, this happened.
All 1.4GB data disappeared!
Please, anyone can help?

sure, it's my pleasure to help others here.
I use wm6 with a 4GB MINI SDHC(Karmba 4.0). After i use bluetooth internet sharing with my laptop, i found that all 1.4GB data disapeared from my sd card. Instead of them, i saw 3 files which have strage name on them and cannot be opened. All these files are 0byte. Then i insert sd into my laptop, right click sd to check property, i knew all data still on sd card, because the property of sd card shows "1.4GB used". After that, i enable my laptop to see hiden files, not see anything from sd card again.
Finnally, i found a tool called "Final recovery". This tool bring the most of files back to me, not all of them.
I suppose, the internet sharing write all the internet temp files into my sd card, then all my data had been overwrited. So, even when i use recovery tool, cannot recover all of them.
Karmba 4.0 set internet cache and temp folder in the sd card by default(Karmba 4.1 maybe does the same thing). Thus, i think maybe this is where the problem comes from.
By the way, i really appreciate what Karmba did for all the user here. His rom is quite good, But i think 1.2 is the best one. The others really need debug.
Hope this information can help other people who have the same problem. Cheers.
It's nice for you to share about your experience regarding recovery.
However, I think it's worthy to point out that SD corruption could be caused by almost any program that access the card. It has been discussed many times in the forum.
It's actually a HTC bug, which goes unfixed. Artemis got a fix to its SD driver long time ago.... Anyway, prevention in my opinion is far better than recovery. Look for a program called "sdsentry" and it will notify you when the corruption occurs and allows you to reboot the machine to prevent the corrupted FAT image got written to the card itself. It will save your day. Try it.

create an empty file naming welcome.not and copy to your SD card. Now reset your device and wait...
ps. Place the SD card to your device before reset.

I assume this is not working to you right?
Please explain more
Hi guys,
After I installed Tomal 9.0 rom, I also get stuck in calibration step.
I do the "welcome.not", but now I can not align the screen.
Using the screen is very hard, because I miss the icons that I want.
With 8.9 I noted some erratic behaviors, but it works +- fine.
It´s a hardware problem?
If not what should I do? reformat?
Thanks
Yes, probably the best thing to do is Doc format and then reflash
Or you can remove the welcomehead.not from sd and do a hard reset....

I just make a new text file(in PC) rename it (welcome.not), and copy it to the root of the SD card, sof reset and he "works", but still have the problem about accuracy
Good luck!

hello guys i'm a huge fan of all the work and help that i can get from this forum so i'm asking again for help.
After i flash my diamond with custom rom he develope a problem.
I use all the steps the mtty and everything but when i put anything in my memory storage it can't be played it can't be opened it won't do anything
If i try to play a file it says that the file is corrupted... if i try to instal something it says the instalation is unsucsessfull and soo on...
So can you help me to fix my memory storage... I flash it clear it but nothing works...
Please hepl!!!
try to change rom or hard-spl...maybe is rom related
if nothing works i think you have to format your internal memory to do this soft reset then press volume down and the central button of the d-pad and press down..
i use several roms after the problem i will try to use different hard spl
I format the memory storage several times but that won't solve the problem either...
Do you think that this comes from the spl???

what do you mean to put the original rom from htc...
or to send the diamond up to service...
I can't understand that: when i put something in the memory storage won't do anything but when i cut it into the main memory it's ok..????!!!!

Hy veli4ko here is HardSpl
To veli4ko
here is a Stok HardSpl
To veli4ko
1. Solution :
- On smartphone: press volume down and reset simultaneously to get the boot mode. Once you made that follows the instructions on the screen.
2. Solution :
- Possibly you do not succeed the first step to obtain a version of HardSPL Diamond, copy the file there. ROMUpdateUtility.exe nbh and running the phone connected to PC and a loader.
Good luck and more attention next time !
thanks
DjMaryuslive but that won't solve the problem... when i put it in boot mode i saw that i were with hardspl 1.93 and the i swich with stockSPLs_htchackerssign.zip in the ROMUpdateUtility.exe
and then i make hard reset but problem is still there... i don't know what to do... any more ideas
I've searched for quite a while and can't find a thread on this, think I've managed to find a fairly unique problem!
Following a recent screen replacement (entirely successful apart from the following problem!!), my DHD is not recognising my SD card. I've tried a factory reset and fixing the permissions through CWM recovery.
I have also tried the SD card in another DHD which recognised it no problem.
I know that this could be a hardware issue due to my fumbling around, but there are several other small glitches that make me think that my rom might be the problem, so I'm wondering if there's a way of flashing a new rom without using the SD card?
Anyone who could provide me with instructions for doing this would be much appreciated!!
Thanks in advance.
Using a file manager, look in /mnt/
Do you see anything in there? i.e /sdcard?
If not then I'd say it was hardware, If you can try another SDCard in it, give that a whirl.
AFAIK, even if you run a RUU~.exe to restore you still need a SDCard as that transfers the rom.zip/PD98IMG.zip to your SDCard.
Not trying to teach you to suck eggs, but have you checked the contacts on the handset? Dirty/Obstruction/etc....
Suggestions,
1). Another SDCard
2). Finding a suitable RUU for your device & running (Search the DHD Dev forums for the RUUs).
Ok i've had a look in Astro.
Firstly I get a little error message saying "Error creating external cache".
Looking in /mnt, there are 4 folders: /asec /obb, /sdcard and /secure
All of these folders are empty according to Astro. If I attempt to create a new folder within any of them I get an error message.
Have turned up a new issue too - the usb connection is intermittent. It will sometimes give me the option to choose the connection type, but at other times it will just charge the phone. I've made sure I'm using the correct cable (i.e. one that is capable of data transfer - not just a charger!)
Have also tried someone else's sd card from their phone that I know is working and no joy.
Thanks for the suggestion about contacts, I hadn't thought of checking that to be honest. I seem to remember reading somewhere that the phone will not access the sd card if the bottom cover is not on properly (the contacts are not seated correctly?) - is this something I should check or have I made it up? I'll have a look at the sd card slot this weekend and make sure nothing is causing problems.
Will also do some research into RUU.
Thanks again for your response, much appreciated!
Problem solved! Seems it was to do with the back covers not being properly aligned.
Phew! Thanks for the suggestions.
