Hi,

Im posting answer for the thread OP since he isnt about.

why are following post 1-4? you only need the driver install (Post 2) and EITHER post 3 or 4. Not both.

Basically it sounds like you have CORRECTLY done MTTY. Hard Reset will do nothing as it seems you have not flashed a new rom!

What to do:

If you have yout ROM on you internal storage, just take the battery out, put it back in and continue, and press the keys to start the flash

if you have NO rom on your Internal Storage:

1:Put phone in Bootloader

2:Connect USB

3:Flash a rom via USB

DONE!!

(If you device ever hangs on the Screen like you say, you have forgotten to ACTUALLY flash the rom ;))

SS

P.S. this EXACT question was asked in the last 2-3 pages!! read abit!

MTTY flashing problem

Hi SiliconSquirrel

First off, thank you for the quick reply and information!

Second, I apologize for the incorrect problem description, it should have read "I went from Post 1

then

to Post 4"

But the reason for juming over posts 2 & 3 is because it post 1, it says (in big red letters) "NOTE: WORKS WITHOUT DRIVER INSTALL ON XP", so I interpreted post 2 as for everyone who has Vista & Windows 7 (not specifically XP). Also, in post 4, it says that you need to complete a & b first, which I did.

So, again, thanks for taking the time to reply.

Cheers

I've read the first 10 pages of this thread and i didn't find the answer that i'm looking for.If i do the mtty procedure and format all,does this mean that i have to flash the radio again?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] SiliconSquirrel:
Hi,

the part referencing NOTE: WORKS WITHOUT DRIVER INSTALL ON XP, so if you have XP SKIP post 2 and use EITHER post 3 OR 4.

If I was you, in the future use post 3 as it is MUCH faster, takes about 2 mins!!

have you fixed your issue now? did you manage to flash?

SS
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] SiliconSquirrel:
Hi,

No the task 29 ONLY formats the area of the NAND that holds the ROM.

therer are other areas of the NAND that hold the Radio, SPL/HSPL etc etc.

task 29 is SPECIFIC to the memory addresses of the dedicated ROM memory.

Good Question!

Hi MG...My problem is solved... The main trouble was to find original ROM from operator(in my case it was Italian 3G)...Now it is working

Hopefully my problem solved itself, but I can't seem to get further down than the timeline than 2004 drivers :+
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Catdog83:
Mtty shows nothing after pressing enter!

I wanted 2 Flash my Diamond from my System

I connected my Diamond and I runned this ''bootloader''

The MTTY programm showed me that COM1 is connected I used default parameters and when I hit enter the MTTY Programm opens but there is nothing typed into the Window!

I've got Windows XP!

When u dont understand what I mean, I can also make screenshots!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] paulscarff:
Thank you

Hi SiliconSquirrel

Yes, I was able to perform the flash and yes I'll definitely take your advice on using post 3 instead of going to post 4.

Thanks again.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
Hi,

what are you talking about? have you ACTUALLY read what i typed? I said NOTHING about copying ANYTHING to Internal Storage.

I said flash via USB

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] codeslicer:
Hi, I think I have the same problem that Kolobok16 had. I'm stuck in SPL1.93 (stock nor Hard-SPL), and running either Hard-SPL or a modified stock rom results in the progress bar being 0%).

So if you can help, please go here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5466356

Thanks.

~codeslicer
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
I told you in your thread that the only thing you can do i get a stock from from your country, which is EXACTLY what Kolobok16 did. If you have the same problem as him, you solution is the same as his!!

can you offer a reason as to why you ran MTTY without HSPL? especially after reading this:

why decide "that wont matter to me" then you post here and i have to try and fix! why not just read the threads BEFORE you do anything and not destroy your device?

as i have said about 3 times now to you: FIND A STOCK ROM FROM YOUR COUNTRY AND FLASH IT VIA USB!!!

hi

is try this after task 8 my device reset

and just show htc black screen(htc logo im middle )

and device does'nt start windows

what i must do ?

(win xp

htc diamond_diam100 p3700

hsp 1.93 onilex)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] zenity:
What the MTTY procedure does is to format, (wipe) the OS partition of your diamond, so it's basically blank after this, ready for a New Rom (hint).

All you really need to do is download your chosen rom and flash using USB. ( if you've formatted without copying a diamimg.nbh file to internal storage, you will have to put it in bootloader and flash using USB).

Please read page 1 of this post, paying particular attention to post #4 part 6 and 7.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mlm1102003:
i copied

but when it go to updating

it hanged on loading . . .

so i hard reset

and now even i cann't update from usb

because it stuck at 0%

and cann't update
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
NOOB post, probably read nothing and tried everything and screwed your device.

your description of the issue is undecipherable therefore i will apply no effore in helping you as you cannot accurately describe what you did, what stage of my instructions you have failed at etc.

MG
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mlm1102003:
(sorry for poor english)

first i wana update my diamond

so i hard spl (1.93) -it was so hard because it stuck at 0% over many time finally i did it

after i want to update rom to latest roms ( like deep shining)

but again it stuck at 0%

so i think mtty may answered

so i read the struction (post1,2,3,4,...)

start "Post 3: MTTY Instructions For FLASHING FROM INTERNAL STORAGE"

i download deep shining and rename it to DIAMIMG.nbh(1)

and

2: Copy DIAMIMG.nbh to the "Internal Storage" of your Device.

and

3: Bring device into bootloader and Connect device in bootloader mode to USB, the word "Serial" will change to "USB"

and

4: Run mtty1.42.exe, You will se a box showing "COM1" from this list select "USB"

and 5,6

but i did not wait for Cmd>

now i do stage 7

and here is the problem

now its stuck at "loading . . ."

after while

i disconect it

and do soft reset

now i see htc arm in black screen(even no red numbers )

(thank you for answering )
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] krabman:
First, thanks for the thread. Been swapping roms since the begining without needing this but finally got myself to a point where I now did need it. Good work, nice instructions that were easy to follow through a somewhat convoluted process.

Secondly I am in a place where the internet barely functions so I was unable to read more than a few posts and it took several hours to get the files even as small as they were. I wanted to point out that I could not get the vista 64 driver to fly on my vista 64 system and tried the 7 driver which worked. It is probably already in the thread somewhere that this could be done and if it is please disregard, if not its a data point for you.

Anyhow,thanks again for taking the time.

QTEK 9100 MTTY problem

Tried flashing my 9100. Crash half way through. IPL 2.18 and SPL 2.18

Can still get into bootloader. Have a Win7 PC. tried access with MTTY. No go. Can't find USB . Tried reboot device. No go. It DOES say USB left lower corner after connection. Can hear sound connecting. Tried reboot pc. No go. Tried compatibility settings XP and Vista. Nog go. Looks lik it can't find de USB port. "USB port can't open"

Booting device normally results in free in bootscreen.

Even tried XP in VM ware. Same problem.

Downloaded a ton of tools. None of them seem to work.

At the end of my possibilities.

Is there anybody out ther that has a brilliant suggestion?

Thanks ;) in advance!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
Read the instructions!

Why

do

you

all

the

I dont get people like you, there is FULL instructions in the first 4 posts and people still think it is a good idea not to follow then, then when everything goes wrong they expect me to fix it!

No, sorry!! follow what i have postedin the thread and it works. this has been working and stable for over a year now, this prosecc works, your currently not!

Hi MysticGenius, This thread has been really helpful for me. I've been following the steps as mentioned and was happy flashing roms every now and then.

But today, I messed up.

Please help!!!

I'll tell you exactly what hpnd...

After all the steps, when it was time for task 8, I typed only 'task' and in a hurry to disconnect, I pressed enter. I saw busy icon and some letter showed up against task like 'task <sic>' or something. In panic, I disconnected and removed the battery. I thought that was the end of it, it's bricked.

But after sometime when I turned on, I was able to enter hardspl.

I connected it to pc, it said usb not recognized and it didn't change from serial to usb.

I restarted my pc, then tried connecting. Now it changed to usb.

After that I ran mtty - task 8 and disconnected and flashed new rom.

The new rom is working fine, except that I'm having problems connecting to pc.

First time, when I connected after flashing, it said 'try changing to high speed port usb 2.0' or something. When I selected disk drive, nothing is happening. In active sync, it said retrieving settings and hanged. Something is wrong!

I know it was because of my carelessness, but only you can help me out. Please help!!!

Thanks...

i am not able to install the radio version

radio bersion 20 is not upgrading on my htc touch diamond.

Even windows 6.5 is not installing even after following the steps.

can any one please help?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
All task 8 does is reboot the handset, you can (if you wanted) just disconnect after task 29 and pull the battery!!

Unfortunately nothing i can help with!! but you could try connecting to a different USB port on your comp, or try hard-resetting the handset?

MG
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
Did you try to install the (mtty)drivers on your pc again?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] genxt:
Thanks MysticGenius and Nirak for the help.

@MysticGenius: I know that all task 8 does is reboot, but when I typed task and pressed enter without typing 8, something came on screen like 'task <something>'... that is when I disconnected and removed battery. That's why I was worried. Could u plz tell me which task is run if I type 'task' only?

@Nirak: I didn't do anything. Does mtty need separate drivers? I'm running xp and as far as I remember I just downloaded the mtty exe file. It was a while ago and I really don't remember what I did exactly when I installed mtty first time.

Anyway, now I'm able to connect to pc using both active sync and disk drive mode. But the GPS is not getting a fix. I think that's a ROM issue and I shouldn't worry too much!! :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
If you run XP you don't have to install any drivers, i just made a (wrong) guess you ran Vista or W7 and maybe reinstalling the seperate drivers that are needed for MTTY on those systems could solve your problems.

Anywayz, happy to see it all runs well again, for checking the GPS there are several tools around here, look for HTC GPS tool.

..is this ok?? but it still flashed..is olinex can cause that string??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
This is just the access level.

if you want to check if MTTY worked, after "task 8" DONT press vol down when restarting.

If MTTY worked correctly you will get the White HTC screen (or what ever your splash is) showing, but after a time, NO RED NUMBERS.

if this is the case, pull the battery out, put it back in and restart the HD2 pressing the vol down to initiate the flash.

MG
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] em-ey10:
..mysticgenius, i did what you said..and after about 5mins,those red numbers your saying didn't appear. does it mean MTTY work?

by the way, thank you very much for giving useful information and answering my inquiry..keep it up the great work..:D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
Yep!! if the numbers DO NOT appear that means there is no rom, therefore MTTY worked!

Those red numbers are output from Windows Mobile to give some Sys stats!

I have windows vista 32bit And the first part of this when you choose the inf file just says this is not a valid windows 32bit thing :S

Help?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Looooooka:
hmmm

mabye you should update this thread.

all this messing and patching of windows 7(probably vista as well) files is a giant waste of time...plus i'm against modifying system files.

just tell people to use the EugeniaUSB signed activesync drivers.

they work and you can use mtty with no problems(tested on windows 7 x64)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
Maybe you should not suggest things that dont work for everyone.

I have tryed those drivers 3-4 times on Win7 and vista both x84 and x64 and they work "SOMETIMES"

MG
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Melhiat:
Hi there.

Thanks for the nice walktrough.

Only one advice from me is to use VMWare virtual PC as host XP system. Then u don't have to bother with the additional drivers for vista and Windows 7.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cmsquared:
thank you very much for the clear steps and the effort put into it...really helped me a lot =) ...however i have encountered some problems...

i have done everything correctly however after i typed in task 8...what happened was it went to the htc diamond screen and i was too slow to do the vol down plus back....so it was stuck on the diamond screen

ive flashed the rom internally to get a rom back in the phone...non mtty ..then tried to reinstall the driver but it keeps saying the device cannot start! it says the driver could be found however the device had a problem...can anyone help me? surely i wouldnt need to redo all the driver things again as task 8 just reboots it, and if i wasnt quick enough ai could just soft reset and click vol down and back right? can anyone please confirm?

the only reason i tried mtty was because internal and RUU flash was very unstable causing my phone to crash mulitiple times a day!! HELP PLEASE!!

oh and i was wondering.. is there a way to check if you have flashed it MTTY? thx
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
i have covered this in the last few pages. if you miss task 8, just remove the battery, replace it and when you start the diamond, press vol down and back and continue as normal.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cmsquared:
i'm sorry but i think if you read the actual name of the thread it says

"Diamond Edition" near the end....does it look like 'Blackstone?"

however this may still work with blackstone..i just thought maybe that is the reason why it isnt working...

i tryed to follow the guide but i can't get it working:(

I did everything mentioned, but then it sayd that the driver is not signed (i used Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider) and the device did not show usb in the bootloader when i connected it.

So i tryed to boot without driver signatur (f8 option) but i get the code 10 error:confused:

so i tryed to use Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider another time, but now it gives me the code 10 error too:mad:

cold you help me please?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
You did it all right. Although you do have quite a few extra failed warnings, they are to be ignored....;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
Ok, firsty, i would just like to say to EVERYONE so this DOES NOT happen again. I have just checked the thread and zeka1974 thought it a good idea to post here, them PM me to tell me he/she had done it to get faster service.

THIS IS RUDE, please dont do this, especially when all this "special" person had to do was read the BIG RED WARNING in the FIRST POST.

Hi,

to be honest i would have thought that this will be ok with most HTC's (although im not putting my life on that so is not my fault if you try and it not work!!)

I do know it works for HD/HD2 Diamond/Touch Pro, Topaz.

MG

Just use F8! no big deal! its had a few hickups for me too, im looking for a reason/fix

Connect you phone in bootloader, go to control panel/system/device manager and uninstall the driver and delete from system, disconnect phone, reboot, reconnect in bootloader, allow windows to install the driver, then follow my steps.

Hi,

Just followed this guide after my 2nd ROM flash went badly wrong, wouldnt boot and got stuck on numerous screens.

Ran this baby and everything seems to better now with the same, original DIAMING image on the internal storage I used, which is strange.

Anyway, posted up to say thanks ALOT, anda possible error if this hasnt been mentioned before (im guessing not as the instructions would have changed)

I ran the whole guide, sticking to the vista 32bit method on my XDA ignito and got stuck on the part where it says:

There was nothing wrong with my driver installation (i had successful reports from the c omputer during installation), what simply happened was that the computer didnt recognise any USB devices connected when it rebooted. Removed and then re-inserted the USB cable, restarted the program and then the USB setting was visible. Might want to edit that incase of people blaming bad downloads or bad driver files on the servers.

I have got a BIG problem

I followed all of the instructions and got the expected results every time but now I have managed to get both Diamonds screwed up some way or another.

I can bring the phones in to bootloader mode and when I connect them to the PC the status changes from "Serial" to "USB" on the phones. From the they go to ROm update screen where the blue bar would normally run and complete the update.

Problem is that they both hang at that screen and after a while I get the ROM update error.

Neither phone will connect through "ActiveSync" either.

Any ideas anybody?????
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
yeah,

1: dont quote a post that big

2: if you get an error it is usually a good idea to tell people what it is, or maybe the error code.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ardec1:
Well Pardon Me!

I have seen quite a few posts about that problem so I thought it worthwhile to re-list the procedure I followed.

Besides that, I managed to get both phones to connect to the laptop again.

Re-ran the unsigned hard SPL. Ran MTTY, but only "task 29", nothing else and I was able to flash a new ROM to both phones.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 4D3:
Not Smart!!

task 29 on its own is pretty dangerous! set 14 0 lets the handset know that it IS going to have a rom flashed and not to completely shutdown access to the NAND!!

But what do i know, i just put these instructions here for a laugh
