[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] drhadidy:
guys im sorry if ill sound stupid here but this is my first flash and i want to make sure of everything not to brick my device...

i have HTC diamond which has russian ROM and upgraded to the last ROM version from the official HTC website using the official serial number.

the ROM version is 1.93.411.2 RUS

radio version 1.00.25.05

i want to change to an english interface...

so ill have to

1-download and install the OliNex Unsigned Hard-SPL (Developers Edition)

2-download and install the radio (ill stick to the 1.00.25.05 Version)

3-

now about choosing the ROM version

....

can i chose ANY WWE ROM version

or there are special ones that will work with the Hard-SPL version i used up there??:confused::eek:

im a little bet confused about this point...

also if i choose a radio signed version do i still have to go for step 2 or not??

thanks for your help
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] blitzbulz:
any idea? I am also curious how to fix a diamond in case like failed rom upgrade?

how do I connect it with active sync if the rom failed to be installed????

failed installing rom means the OS is broken right? broken OS means no active sync? so how to fix it??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Paulio5:
Newbie here to ROM's, i have had my Vodafone UK Touch Diamond a few months now, at home and work i get such a weak signal and i am hoping a radio flash will solve this for me, can anyone confirm if they have done a Flash on a UK Voda Diamond?

Also can anyone advise what are the best ROM/Radio/HardSPL to use on UK Diamond.

Greatly Appreciated

i dont get it! i have flashed my trinity umpteen times before but my diamond is still a virgin! dont regard myself as a noob (cos ive cooked plenty of roms before) one question why is CID unlock not mentioned in the first post? or is it part of the unsigned spl ?

olipro's thread on CID and SIM just mentioned sim unlock!

my bad ignore this post!

unable to flash

hi..im new diamond user..change from p3600i to diamond..

why i cant flash my rom?its say check my cable/connection..and nothing happen in my diamond to ask confirmation...

how could i do?please help.. im using radio Radio v1.00.25.03
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Jackuuuuu:
Yo, I just changed from P3600i too... Try to follow racerx_ method too. I just both concurrently.

1. I stuck at the most is getting Ver 1.40. I finally got it by forum searching. Get the unsigned development version. Also see Troubleshooting post. Very good direction.

2. Selecting a rom! My gosh, as tnyynt suggested, moving from a Trinity forum is crazy adoption step! So many roms to choose from!

I have spend whole night and got it all worked out! Thank you for the excellent guide.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] pauldgroot:
I've upgraded my diamond to Syrius Beta 3 and everything worked ok for a week or so.

But since last night it wont go past the bootscreen wich says TOUCHDiamond and all the radio/rom info.

I thought of a hard reset, but I have couple of messages that I want to keep since my last backup friday.

So is there any way I could still boot into windows mobile?

Problem:

Just installed Hard-SPL from OliNex. After reset (hard-reset), the image on display glimmers! Sometimes more, sometimes less or not at all, but it does. I've later installed Duty's ROM, and I'm planning to install higher radio which will hopefully correct this mistake.

Anyone else had this problem?

Current versions:

ROM: Duttys V3.1 WWE

ROM Date: 19/11/08

Radio: 1.00.25.05

Protocol: 52.29.25.12H

Screen Align problems

Hi all

have just updated rom to Dutty's 3.4V. everything is working fine but on one problem. my screen does not align correctly. Have done the screen align but for some reason does not save settings as, as soon as the screen align has completed it works fine for about 5 minutes then it all goes crazy e.g. everything on right side of screen does not work I tap on number 9 for some reason 7 comes up as I can see 7 flash as if it has been pressed, same with number 3 and 6. also if in a program and need to click on ok which is found top right side of screen then start menue pops up. I will then do the align screen again works again for a couple of minutes then it goes mad again. have tried a couple of different rom but keep getting same problem. have even tried the official orange rom.

Please help

Thanks in advance.

P.S. If I have posted in wrong section sorry.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mugglesquop:
try a different SPL (version 1.37 is the preferred one i believe)

SPL can cause fuzziness, so might be the cause.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mugglesquop:
you run it on ur PC with the phone synced via activesync...

read the instructions :rolleyes:

Dear tnyynt,

Thanks for your guide on flashing ROM for the HTC Touch Diamond... Must say that it saved me a lot of trouble and answered all my questions... Just one question although... I have flashed with Olinex 1.40 and Radio 1.08.XXX and with AZTOR 1.97... I want to flash Dutty's 3.6 version... Should I flash again with Olinex and Radio or just over this... Regards...

installing hard-spl

Hi, I'm currently about to install the hard-spl on my diamond and just want some feedback on which I should choose? My current device spl is 1.93 as attached.

Should I go for:

1. Unsigned 1.43 Olinex or

2. Unsigned 1.93 Olinex

Regards.

A few months ago i've installed olinex 1.40 and the phone go's back to htc for fixing my touchscreen ( the phone doesn't responed with any pressure, but furter works fine) But know i need to flash back to 1.34 spl or 1.37. First i go the the bootloading screeen ( volume down + reset) and than flash to 1.34 spl. It jumps direct to 100 % and nothing has chance. It's still is olinex 1.40. Can someone please tell me what i'm doing wrong?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Zakraket:
Im trying to do the HardSPL

1. Download OliNex Unsigned Hard-SPL (Developers Edition) from here;

2. Unzip the files from the archive to any new folder;

3. Run the executable (in most cases it is ROMUpdateUtility.exe, but it also can be ROM.exe or any other name, recognize it by the icon);

4. If you understand the caution and risks, check the box and click Next;

5. Read carefully and follow all directions;

6. If you completed all steps indicated, check the box and click Next;

7. Next screen will show current version on device and by clicking Update you will see the version to be flashed;

8. Click Next when ready;

9. Your device might ask you for confirmation on launching a program. Just tap Yes! Your device will display a completely black screen. A Progress bar will appear on your computer screen. Be patient while your device is being updated. Do not interact with device in any way, do not unplug cable, do not turn off device or computer!

10. When upgrading is finished, your device will automatically soft reset. Click the ‘Finish’ button to exit the RUU.

But after step 8 I get an error 202: CONNECTION. The updateutility cannot connect to your PDA Phone .. etc.

I have an active sync connection (just synced the phone), I can browse to my phone memory and card using Explorer, so I assume my connection is perfectly working.

I am using Windows Vista. My phone is version 1.93.404.1.

Any tips? Perhaps I should do a hard reset first?

edit: a normal hard reset first doesn't help, still the same error :'(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
Yes.......how about trying a different version of Hard-SPL.

Which version did u try? Some of these versions are not compatible so thus try another. ;)

Problem installing HARD-SPL

Hi, just tried to install Hard-spl, following every step in this tutorial carefully. When it started installing and the phone screen turns black, after a few seconds the program says error and it can't find the phone. Only option is exit. After exit, phone screen is still black. What to do!?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shiranmotha:
Some clarifications please.

I bought my new Vodafone Touch Diamond about two weeks back. I'm using it in Sri Lanka and I had no problems like network locks. It cost me a lot & I dont wanna brick it.

I was using a HIMALAYA (I-MATE POCKET PC) for three years and i never had to use Hard-SPLs. I read the first post & it said I have to upgrade the SPL to HARD-SPL before upgrading the radio ROM. it recomends the unsigned 1.40 version. But what is available in the thread are version 1.37 , 1.38 , 1.93.

Also elsewhere it is recommended to use signed versions & this recommends the unsigned.

Can someone please guide me. And is it worthy to upgrade to 1.00.25.05 from the original 1.00.25.03? Does it improve the battery life up to a significant level? Does it improve the HSDPA reception & heating the device on calls? If the SPL upgrade fails in the middle due to a Power Failure, is it possible to re-upgrade? Or will it brick my device forever?

I've found out the hard way that the Custom Update Utilitity (RUU) crashes when you try to run it from a network drive. I thought it was an O/S issue, but it turns out it just doesn't work over the network, even on network mounted drives.

Ht, because im new here, and i asked several questions and asked for help but no one replied to me to help unlock my diamond...bugt one, and payed for unlocking..

bytheway...it runs very slow and freezes 5-6 times a day...i set down and red this forum, i found that i should update my rom, radio etc...i decided for swiftBL Rom v 7,5, radio 1,09,25,23 i downloaded OliNex Unsigned Hard-SP...i know i have to hard reset after installing this stuff...so, may the forces be with me, hope everything gonna be ok....i will follow the instructions given here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=416211 ..and will post after updating...

the hell is that...first the device lost the contact with the cable, but i didnt touch it...crap..then i went out when the proces started, when i came back after 2-3 minutes it was finished, the diamond asked me something, i think the there is an unsigned application or i cannot remember, now the device restarted and it installs the windows..oh my godness, it is much faster than earlier..oh, i forgot to say one of my friends put hungarian language in the device..now it is lost, but the device works fine...i will try it onemore time...then im goind to sleep...:mad::mad:

and again...i tried ith with a signed version but nothing..simply, when i start updating, in the status bar is on 0%, then the device write me this message:

"the program is from an unknow publisher..." etc and asks at the end yes or now, i think it was to proceed or whatewer. if i tap on yes, on the computer the status bar of updating skips on 100%, then my device restarts but nothing happens...it begins to install winmobile and thats that. If i dont click on the device on the yes button, the program in the pc says check the cable connection and a few more things...and, every time, when i try to update, when these craps begin to eat me, the activesynch connection losts...:mad::mad: oh, what should i do...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] materijalmen:

HELP!!!!!!!

Hi,

I have a UK T-Mobile MDA COMPACT IV which is I think is also known as Touch Diamond which I use in the United States, my phone has the sim card in it.

Would I be able to upgrade my phone or is this HardSPL+Radio+Rom not intended for my phone?

I am a newbbie to this and I want to have a better performance on my phone. when going into messages, camera ect.......it lags a little bit and when I charge it, it also becomes hot or when I am using it alot. Also People have tried calling me or I have a lot of dropped calls. Could that be from the Radio version that I have?

Also when receiving mms pictures they are very small even though I change the settings to original or larger.

When I go into Device Information this is what it says:

ROM version: 1.37.110.3 WWE

Radio Version: 1.20.OliNex

Protocol version: 52.26a.25.09U

Bottom line is Will this improve everything that I mentioned and Am I able to use these on my phone?

Thanks!!!!!

Raymond

Very Good ROM so fast, i like it!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] materijalmen:
which rom do you talking about?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] materijalmen:
Finally, i have made it!

MY SUGGESTION:

-before you start flashing etc, FIRST YOU MUST HAVE Service Pack3 on your computer. when I installed it, I mdae this upgrading guide without any problems.

first upgraded to HardSPL.

Then FLASHED.

I had the radio version what i wanted, so i didnt changed the radio version.

:D

This is my first ROM flash on my Diamond...:o

Can somone please explain which option I should press (and what option 2 means - I can't remember the exact wording) when doing a hard reset after flashing a ROM, I get 3 option asking me to...

1) Press volume key up to restore factory setting.

2) Press volume key down to restore factory setting and MovI??? -I think this means to clear the internal memory too.

3) Press any key to abort the reset process.

I'm sorry if I'm being a nobe, I didn't find anything on this thread about this.

Hi

I have T-Mobile MDA Compact IV (unlocked) and I'm trying to to flash "Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex".

1. While I'm opening RUU it shows my current Rom, then it shows version that I'm upgrading for, and when I press next it stops on 0%...and it says later that my mobile is not connected... :(:(:(

Please any help...Rom provided by T-mobile is boring...and I'd love to change it....

Thanks very much for this easy to follow guide. I have never flashed a phone before but hated the T-Mobile pink and white on my Compact IV! I followed every step of the guide and everything went smoothly apart from the radio update where the Windows program kept crashing. I tried it on different PC and it worked, the only thing I can think that may cause this problem is XP Service Pack 3 on the PC that did NOT work.

I have been happily on 1.40 Onlinex on my XDA Ignito for some months and have flashed many roms (Aztor, Dutty, Shaks, Panoosha etc) but am now trying to security unlock my phone but keep getting errors in the process.

After much searching to trya nd sort these errors myself I thought I would follow the instructions here and see if changing my SPL version might help but I can't seem to install any other SPL on my phone.

When I perform the SPL updates (treid 1.37 unsigned, 1.93 etc) it looks like it has worked fine as it ogoes to 100% and reset the phone but if I go into the bootloader screen I am still left with Olinex 1.40 ???

On my bootloader screen I have the following if this helps?

DIAM300 MFG 64M

SPL-140.Olinex

MicroP-Diam (LED) v11

PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x32

1) if the device is SIM locked (in my country it can be locked in 2ways: use just one network where you bought the phone and at the and of mont, you have to pay the telepfhone bill, and the second is when the phone locked to one sim card but u can buy credit for the card whenever you want) I HAVE to pm Olipro to give me the SIM unlocker, Will it work whatevere is the device locked like i wrote at first example and second?

2) Then i have to hardspl

3)Then to upgrade the ROM

4)Then the Radio

after this can i use the phone with any sim cards to use any network? This is very important for me, im interested in upgrading and unlockin too, jut dont know is the unlocker working realy, or just at the version when you dont have the billing?
