[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] zarphex:
I can't even get it to run past 0%. I've tried this one as well as jockys and neither of them will work for me. My phone either freezes up or won't even start the process. I followed the instructions. My screen wouldn't even go black after starting the update utility. I tried putting the SSPL Manual on my card and launching that off the phone but it just freezes after the loader icon comes up. Is it maybe that I put it on my micro sd card or something? Can anyone help me out here?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Anakha56:
So I need some advice on if a SPL on this Diamond will work or not.

My Diamond is running 1.93 Olinex fine and a friend of mine got his Diamond about a year ago and wants to flash custom ROMS to it. When I took a look at his SPL version and other data it is different from my phone:

His SPL: SPL-2.03.0000 and then another difference is "PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0.32".

Mine reads: SPL-1.93.Olinex "PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0.30".

Is it safe to put the 1.93 SPL on his device? What does the SPL control? And what is the second line?

Thanks for any assist. :)

HardSPL stuck at 0%

EEEEsh tough luck with me.

I wanted to flash to fleya's ROM on touch diamond 1. Then I did what he said, make sure you do mtty to avoid problems. I copied the ROM to internal memory as he said and did the mtty The DEFINITIVE MTTY Thread!! - Diamond Edition, which was set 14 0, task 29 & task 8. Then I rebooted as said and it didn't flash at all. So now it is stuck at boot on Touch Diamond screen. Thing's I can't flash any ROM to it, they all get stuck at 0%. Some said get HardSPL that's what is missing. And here I am. But to flash the HSPL is also not doing anything. Still stuck at 0%.

I got a ROM from HTC site and it goes beyond 0% to 1% and then issues invalid vendor ID. Do you know how to change the vendor ID of the Stock ROM or at least what i can do to flash in this hardSPL.

New life for a HTC P3700 ( Touch Diamond) ?!?

Is this thread monitored by anyone, still?!?

I got this old (some say obsolete) HTC Touch Diamond and would like to see if I can make it work as an emergency/backup phone to my Nokia Lumia 820 WP8. Or I can just load it with music, videos, for my two kids to play around or even use myself as a "wireless client" around the house so I reduce usage (and possible damage) to my main phone.

The device boots fine into windows mobile 6.1 I get a nice touch flo 3D screen of course the no sim error/message but everything else seems to work, even connected to my home WiFi. One thing that does not work (while connected to WiFi) is YouTube, it has an HTC app already installed which allows me to search and find but will not play videos, just errors out saying "could not connect" , even directly via InternetExplorer I can go to YouTube.com but it will not play videos. Some thing is goofy even though the wireless works. I can access my email via the preinstalled outlook and it syncs fine.

All in all, I was wondering if I should use a radio, SPL and ROM which is more compatible for my location, I live in the US while this phone was originally sold somewhere in eastern Europe, possibly yugoslavia or greece.

I am attaching some screenshot in case they help.

Hopefully someone more knowledgeabe than me can help me ..."resurrect" this thread after, what, more than 3 years!?!? (or if I'm in the wrong place, point me to the right one) :o

Thank you very much! :good:

Look in google for:

You find some youtube installations you can try.

I found one in a few seconds: see attachment.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] XwpisONOMA:
As I mentioned in another thread I installed the latest Eng version I could find and it worked fine, solved the video streaming problem as well.

Out of curiosity this youtube.cab is the same app like already preinstalled in HTC official version or a custom made one. Either way, as silly it may sound I have never installed a .cab file before so I am not going to try it. I'll look it up online and return back here if needed later.

Thanks again!

Hi, can you precise this procedure to enter into the bootloader mode? I tried several times just to get only the usual Soft Reset?

Do I have to relax one of the pressed tools before the other?

Thanks for your patience.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] faethon:
Hmm, I get a connection error a while after the black screen. And the SPL is not updated... Anyone else has seen this problem? And found a solution? Device connects normally though, activesync works like a charm using the same USB connector & cable.

Ok, used another USB port, now it worked... Was using a cable through a USB hub first, which apparantly didn't work out well...

Ok, now for the nice ROM goodies!!

When I use this Hard-SPL developer program it upgrades to OliNex 1.30 not to OliNex 1.40.

I have used the software posted in post 1 of this thread.

What I'm doing wrong?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cmonex:
we don't know what you are doing wrong if you don't describe your steps. make sure you run the included RUU after the device goes to black screen. confirm the RUU goes to 100%, at this point you should have 1.40 flashed.

How To Return To Stock Spl - For Warranty Reasons Only!

the one you criticized (post #39).

so here's steps (update: I'm leaving this here only so search can find information easier):

HOW TO RETURN TO STOCK SPL - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!

0. be sure to first restore stock OS, and stock radio. stock SPL is always to be done last!!

1. download the stock spl package and the RUU-SSPL package from post #39 in this thread.

2. pick the SPL you want to reflash to (ONLY FOR WARRANTY REASONS), it's a .NBH file, put it in the extracted RUU-SSPL package.

3. run the RUU (or if needed, run SSPL-Manual.exe manually, then run RUU when it goes to black screen), it goes to 100%, reboots, done.

+4. to verify, volume down + reset, see version number on tricolour screen.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Marc283:
I'm following the steps as described by you in post 2.

When I use the software provided I get the screen in the attachment.

When I click next the phone screen turns black. The RUU goes to 100% and the phone boots up again. When I turn it in bootloader mode. The screen says:

DIAM100 MFG 64M

SPL-1 1.30 OliNex

MicroP-Diam (LED) v11

PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x30

And the RUU says: Congratulations! ...... etc.

Edit: Don't know what went wrong, but tried it 1 more time before bedtime. And for some reason its ok now. :)

Screen wobble and fuzziness

I know this is going to sound crazy but...... after spending the whole of the weekend playing around with the stock uk rom (1.37) which came with my diamond on Friday I decided to flash this version of Hard spl and start using custom roms, everything went well until it re-booted it was then I noticed a fuzziness around the fonts and boarders of gfx’s at first I dismissed it as coincidence and continued with the setup (remember I was still running the stock 1.37 uk rom) after the autorun bit the phone reset and came back to life without any screen problems so I now flashed “TLR Diamond ROM - based on UK 1.37.405.1 + fixes / enhancements” which again went to plan however upon resetting I noticed the fuzziness back! So I continued to set everything up again which cured it upon every other reset! Well after 2 hours of intermittent screen problems I decided to reflash back to the stock spl and rom ready to send my faulty handset back but this is the freaky bit.......

after flashing back the stock 1.37 spl ONLY (just to make sure there no compatibles problems between roms’s and spl’s I find the screen to be back to normal and I’m unable to reproduce to problem again !!! So to some up is it possable there a issue between spl’s and rom version like with my Kaiser?

Oh and I did think it could be a loose connection and tried in vain to stop, start it by shacking and knocking my phone around.... but why after a weekend out and about would it start and stop so prescribed??

Oh and honestly THANK YOU Olipro, cmonex, tom_codon , and to all the cooks out there for making all our experiences so much better with these phone though YOUR hard work. Thank you.

Note - 12 hours after flashing back to the stock spl 1.37 I still cannot get the problem to recur.

More testing..... ok again everything fine all day then just now I reflash "hard-spl" back to enable me to flash "TLR Diamond 2" rom and guess what?.... its back I am convinced now that there is more to this than meets the eye!

"Wrong device ID." error during flash

Seers folks,

I got a problem here, I just tried to flash a stock ROM ( 1.37.401.3 ) to my Diamond.

The RUU from the original package says "wrong device ID", after this I tried to flash it with Custom RUU but there is also shown an error!

ERROR [244]: INVALID MODEL ID

I have unsigned Hard-SPL installed ( OliNex 1.4 ).

Shouldn´t I be able to flash every ROM I want? Or is it possible that the error results from an stock SPL that may is contained in the stock .nbh?

regards

To check "press the volume down button and reset at the same time"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] demacus:
thank you for reply, but i don´t understand what will be the effect of turning to bootloader mode...?

edit:

just flashed TLR 2 without any problems so i think the error was created through an stock SPL which was contained in the stock package.

will try to exclude SPL from nbh and try again...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cmonex:
well, what is this fuzziness exactly? can you explain more?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cmonex:
tell us what the modelid is in tricolour screen. DIAM100? something else?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sunball8:
tnx for every developer
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] zjsteven:
thanks! it's done.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] demacus:
The model ID is DIAM300.

I think the error was caused by the contained SPL in nbh, the RUU tryed to overwrite Hard-SPL which is locked.

I really could think about it before, its really simple...

regards&thanks to all developers,

demacus
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ratcom:
I'll try.... it’s like a very faint electrical interference around the edges of everything, I’m sure someone else must have noticed it if there was any real problems?? In the mean time all I do is hard spl my phone then flash the rom I want then flash back to the original 1.37 spl so I guess it’s no biggy I’m just surprised that I’m the only one with the problem?

Oh BTW I have a DIAM 100 with LCD Driver V11 if that helps?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Geekess:
I have a problem installing this SPL.

After I connect my phone, I start ROMUpdateUtility.exe. I check the checkboxes, click the Next buttons, it starts the process and then... Error[202]: Connection

But my Diamond does have a good connection (activesync with USB cable, I can transfer files).

Current ROM: the latest official HTC Dutch: 1.37.404.3

What do I do wrong and how can I fix this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cmonex:

wait until it goes to black screen

then run RUU
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cmonex:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ratcom:
PM Sent ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cmonex:
1) backup your current ROM just in case the other ROM is incompatible. look for kaiser backup pdocread commands, use pdocread -l to change the sizes (or it won't dump properly) then dump the listed partitions 00, 01, 02.

2) after you got your rom backup, in the NBH you want to flash change the DIAM10000 (or whatever is there) to DIAM*****. make sure NBH size stays the same. then flash

WARNING: anyone who has a modelid different from DIAM100, should do the same if they have developer hardspl installed. especially DIAM140, which is the indian EDGE only diamond, this one has been proven to have issues

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cmonex:
to everyone... 1) if it doesn't even start flashing the hardspl, use SSPL-Manual.exe 2) to enter bootloader to check version, volume down key must be held down until tricolour screen appears. reset button is to be pressed only for a sec, just like when doing a normal reset.

(When it will be avalaible of course :D)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ratcom:
there's no really need if you dont have any problems, however with the kaiser rom it was found that the spl's did more than serve as a bootloader they discovered that they play a bios type role and could cause problems mixing them with some rom's.

read here for some background info > http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2261226&postcount=2 < NB - NEVER FLASH A SPL NOT INTENDED FOR YOUR DEVICE
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Rapier:
If you put the Unsigned-Hard-SPL from Olinex (that is an 1.9 Mb file), that DOESN'T change your ROM...it just change your bootloader (and that you can see in the bootloader screen) in order to flash ANY other ROM (a ROM has about 100 Mb if it's not cooked to take out a lot from it). This is not possible if you have the original Diamond with it's original bootloader.

AFTER you install this, you should choose one of the ROMS available here on the site or one of the official ones and flash that one (for ex you can put the latest 1.37.401.3). THEN you will see the ROM version is different.

For the second question, doing a flash with a ROM from here, it will get rid of the O2 personalization (if you put a "universal" ROM like the official 1.37.401.3 mentioned above)

Hope it helps and I've explained OK (more experienced members can confirm if I said it correctly)

you will probably have to hardSPL it because the guy's post is incorrect.

it is not based on region, it is based on CID. CID is partially dependent on region but more varied than the base region (i.e. a region can have several CID's)
