[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] abdullah1982:
Hi.To tell u in plain english Hard reset is formatting ur phone.Its similar to the clear storage function which u have in the System settings tab. You will lose all data stored on phone. whereas Hard Spl is an unlocking software. It will unlock ur phone for all type of upgrades and specially flashing ur rom. (HSPL is an user-modified SPL that you have to flash to your phone. It overwrites the existing SPL on your device with a "hacked" one so to say. It allows you to bypass the HTC certificate check and flash unsigned or CID-mismatching roms to your phone. You only have to flash it once and then you can flash roms anytime.) "Quoted from crackwhore"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] abdullah1982:
Well now is the perfect time for you to flash a new rom with WWE (world wide english). You will first of all get a new cooked ROM that will jazz up ur phone and u will also have english.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] abdullah1982:
All models are totally different and flashing a rom meant for a specific model on some other phone will just do one thing. It will turn ur phone into a paperweight, So to say it will brick ur phone. I highly advice you to go to Hermes forum and get cooked rom's from there. The link is

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] abdullah1982:
You always need to get Hard SPL on ur phone if u want to flash a ROM. Its the only way and dont worry at all, after flashing u can still continue using ur current carrier without any prob
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] abdullah1982:
Well my dear this site is a boon for all HTC users. Its the perfect place to mod and upgrade ur phone and one of the most imp. part of upgrading/modding ur phone is to get cooked ROM flashed. HTC original rom are nowhere near to the league of cooked rom. It will change ur experience and u will ultimately fall in love with ur phone. Well Cooked ROM are ones that are made by some develepors as per their needs. You will find new softwares, settings, the way ur phone behave, its processing speed. It will boost up anything. There are many developers out there who specailise in cooked ROM. If u are looking for a really heavy rom bundled with loads of softwares then go for ENERGY rom. You can try others too. There are quite few good chefs out there.

Tnx in advance!!!!!!!!!:confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mattie1:
Dont mix radioversion with SPL version. your SPL version is 1.20 your radioversion is something else..

1. Flash with Olinex 1.40 http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=93362&d=1213719705

2. Flash ROM I'm using this one.. there are many - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=521941

(3.) Radio doesn't have to be flashed.. if you have poor reception you may want to flash your radio.. I'm using 1.09.25.23 and it seems that that one works best for the majority. It differs between different operators though! If your satisfied with your current reception you don't have to flash the radio.

Good luck!

Thanks again for all your support!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ichiai:
@ B@tyl

im no expert here, thought but from what ive read, if you download a stock rom, not much should change with the speed and etc.

cooked roms are roms that either focus on speed, animation, etc.

it is still something i still researching in this forum.

i havent found a page where there is a list of all the roms for diamond available and a comprehensive of what the rom does do and what it does have.

but they always say, the best rom is your own cooked rom

that is also something im looking into

Hi,

I have some problems at flashing roms.

Step A and B are working fine.

At Step C I’ll export the downloaded ROM of my choice into the directory of the RUU. If I now want to flash the ROM the screen of the device is getting dark and the tool shows 0% the hole time until it aborts with an error. The device doesn’t show anything. It’s dark the hole time.

It’s not the 0% error mentioned in the other sticky guide because I could flash the ROM of the thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=551294 with the .exe file but not with the single .nbh file.

Do you know why I have such a problem?

Best regards,

trying to flash the latest official rom downloaded from htc.com, the proccess stuck at the tricolour screen. I had no choice but to remove the battery after the warning message that the usb cable might be disconnected.

Of course i had all the prerequisits and an activesync connection.

Any ideas?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] eruvaer:
Hi Assell,

I had the same problem when I followed this guide yesterday. I figured out that using the RUU which comes with the download in step A doesn't work. Instead you have to use the Custom RUU from step B (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=396073). Just create a new folder with the DiamonCustomRUU.exe and your .nbh file in it and start the .exe. Then do the flashing as described in post #1.

Hope this helps!

Hi to all,

1- I have OilNex 1.40 installed...But I saw there is a 1.93 version? Should I upgrade?!

2- If I was installing a new ROM and it crashed in the middle of installation for any reason what happens? Does Hard SPL returns to the previous installed ROM or what?!

Sorry again for the newbie questions and thanks loadz :)

From what I've red, HardSPL Olinex 1.93 (unsigned version) was made for some devices (built 1.93...) that had displaying (flickering) problems but should be basically similar to the 1.40 version.

Problem with my internal storage.

hi there, i flashed my htc touch diamond with energy ROM, everythings goes well.

I tried to connect my htc touch diamond to my car's audio (which can support USB storage) for musics. It can play the musics, but after i disconnect my diamond, i found that my diamond cannot detect the "internal storage" anymore, and yet i can detect it when i connect my phone to my pc.

Anyone here know how can this happened and how to solve it?

When i checked the memory setting for my diamond.

It shows that the "storage card is not installed"

Not working.. and your poll is fubar because I have read everything and followed the instructions, read other posts, tried everything mentioned by others who have this issue and my AT&T fuze refuses to take the hard-spl, and yes Ive tried all three of them. Tried on seperate PCs, one vista one xp sp3. Same error.

The hard-spl asks to run an unsigned file, select yes, screen goes black and diamond never reconnects to the PC to start the update, the only visible sign of life is the pulsing light around the round button. Eventually the RUU updater times out because the diamond is never reconnecting back to the PC. Only way to boot the phone from this "off" phase is to take the battery out and put back in, holding power button does not reboot. Thankfully, it comes back to the factory rom and doesnt brick.

Ive even booted the diamond in boot mode (volume down/power) and tried to manually update, still no luck.

Several, several people posted this same problem not only in this thread but in several others and no one has gave a valid answer to fixing our problems. Hell even an simple explaination would be nice. This issue isnt covered on the first page of this thread or subsequent pages, so this "Bible" is worthless without addressing an issue that so many of us have encountered.

Boot Screen:

RAPH110

SPL-5.10.0000

Micro-P-Raph (LED) v13

Micro-P-Raph (KEY) v5

PCBID 0x80

RID 0x0

HTC/AT&T Stock Generic OS:

ROM date: 05/06/09

Radio version: 1.14.25.35

Protocol version: 52.64c.25.35H

With this great community, Ive been modifying my phone since my 8125 and getting better results from that phone because of the hard work of people here. But to see so many questions about this one simple issue go unanswered, really gets me upset...

Glad everyone who is not having this problem is enjoying the work of the community, those of us here with this issue just have to bow down and suck it I guess.

..

EDIT: Nevermind, Im a flippin idiot. I have a Raphael not a Diamond eventhough they look exactly alike... Sorry I got my panties in a wad over nuthin. Was pretty cool that the hard-sdl didnt brick my phone tho, nice work. You know what they say, build something idiot proof and they will make a better idiot. :D

As far as I know, unless the ROM requires it (which is usually specified in the first few posts), you should be fine to keep your old radio.

Make sure you upgrade to HardSPL, though.

Hi,

I'm having the same issue as a few other people on here - I have a O2 XDA Ignito and I'm trying to HardSPL it before flashing a ROM (EnergyROM rocks!) - basically it asks to go into the bootloader and then the progress bar goes from 0% to 100% in a few seconds and then the device is soft reset.

So far I've tried:

Enabling manual boot loader

Enabling bootloader before (vol down / power on / USB connection)

Different versions of Olinex HSPL

Everytime it does the same.

Any ideas - please? I really want to get Win Mo 6.5 on this device.
