ROM upgrade probs... - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

Hey Guys...
Heres a new one for ya!
So.. Hard SPL installed, success "upgrading" to Elite 1.0
Now.. when i try to "reinstall" a standard Stock rom (tried both Asia & UK) it goes through the procedures with no real probs... then stops after entering Bootloader.. at 0% and stays there!
Any Ideas??
BTW After resetting / battery remove etc, the old rom is still there, no hard reset or any of that mallarky!
I even tried taking out the sim, just to be on the safe side!
I know that "before" with my UNI, it did this sometimes when I had a SD card in it! But the internal storage is built in now... so???

only signed ROMS can be upgraded with the Hard SPL for unsigned ROMs u need the latest Olipros hard spl to be installed. for now only two roms are there that u can upgrade with a signed hard spl. if u want other ROMS to upgrade use this SPL version of olipros but i may remind u that its not for newbies !!!

DOH!
Of course...
I didnt even think about that!
Cheers Mate..
Actually I sort of got things sorted.. Re-Flashed Elite.. Giving it a second chance!
Will test though and let you know. Thanks for the tip!

About Hard Spl 1.13 Oli Plz Help!

i tried to upgare my bootloader
with the black edition but when i start the rom upgrade it asked me what boot loader i have

when i give that option it tells me to run the rom only with mityy
but i saw an option in the rom upgrade that say force spl so i choos that option and after few second it finished and i see i have 1.13 oli
so it works that way because i didnt peek version in the rom upgrade i just peek the force spl
????
yes, it worked... as you can tell BY THE FACT YOUR PHONE IS STILL OK... why the hell did you waste YOUR TIME AND OURS by posting a whole ****ing topic telling the world "whoopee my flash succeeded because I followed instructions."
sorry man!"'

Yea, And if you would have read the Hard SPL thread or the Upgrade Guide by MrVanx you would have known what to do! I guess it's good someone like Olipro took the time to create this!

Olipro,
hi,
I flash with LVSW's full update with 1.13Oli SPL, During the first screen I select Force SSPL. After flash the ROM I got white backgroud on Today's screen. I read through few people's experience with white background and try to fix it. Nothing works so I flash the OS only upgrade. The upgrade stop in middle of flashing. Later I discover the DL files were bad. Now, my 8525 bootup into 3 color screen with:
herm 1.13Oli screen. No activeSync connection..... In XP I can see the MobileDevice, but nothing within the folder.
Is it my device is now brick??
Any help will be appreciate.

go to the Hard-SPL thread, download the new Hard-SPL.
when flashing, select 1.11 and tick Hard-SPL (or don't, doesn't really matter).
go through the flash, let it update your SPL.
now, with 1.30, flash the latest LVSW WM6 ROM, or any other
Hi,
Thx for the fast response.
I have DL your newest Hard-SPL V4 version 1.30Oli. When I run the update it shows error (264) connection. No matter what, it will not update.
I have remove and reinstall activesync, but XP will find the device, but no activesync connection.
What should I di next??

Hard SPL not working?

So I'm having problems installing Hard SPL (Olinex Unsigned). The phone is connected w/ Active-sync to my computer, and all of those required "steps" to check before you begin flashing were there. It takes just a few seconds for the HardSPL to install, and it says "congratulations...", so I assumed it went well. However, when it boots up, it says NOTHING about Olinex. Instead, when I'm on the boot screen, it has red letters, the lower ones stating my normal ROM build. It looks like:
R 1.00.25.5
G 1.52.29.25.12H
D 1.93 ...
I assume this is the bootloader? I held the lower volume button and hit the soft reset button to get to the bootloader, and that was the same screen it went to. However, then the ROM boots up on the phone, and it's the same intro screen as my initial ROM was. When I proceed with trying to install the HardSPL again, it tells me my current ROM is 1.93.401.2.. not Olinex.' I also tried the SSPLmanual file. No good..
Also, I realized that when I ask for it to update, Mobile Device Center loses connection w/ my phone. Maybe I am just having a problem holding a connection between the two? Activesync is turned on on my phone, and Mobile Device Center says that my phone is connected before the flash.
Has anyone had this problem before, or know how I can fix it? Thanks everyone. I've been looking around everywhere.

I'm under the impression that you are not entering your bootloader screen. Please try this again (soft reset and ASAP, press the vol down button). Keep holding it until you see Red, Green, etc.(rainbow like coloured screen) .... please report back what it says on that screen before we move on.
wow.. I suppose that did the trick. AND it DOES say that it has Olinex on it, so I guess that installed w/o a problem! Thank, I really appreciate the help. Unfortunately, I've heard many different ways to get there (mainly hold vol-down THEN press soft-reset).
One last question though.. Now that I spent a good 30 minutes installing the list of those tweaks, would I really see much of an improvement jumping to a cooked ROM? I was looking at getting AZTOR or Nataly's lite (I'm not asking which one..), but I am not sure how much of an improvement I'm looking at. I'm currently running the stock ROM as 1.93 (I guess I'm running Olinex atm). Now that I've applied all of those tweaks from that one page, is it worth it to jump to a cooked ROM?
Thanks again! That makes my day seem MUCH more successful now.

haha, so you recommend I go ahead and push my luck w/ a 2.03 cooked ROM? Will I really have to worry about all of those tweaks, or will they already be optimized in the cooked roms? Again, I'm looking at 2 that are based off of performance, so I can expect they'll already be well-tweaked, but I'm new w/ all of this.

Hi I would but thats me. yes these roms are tweaked for performance.
make sure you have read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211

Hi have a look here to flash from the internal storage.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3287426&postcount=10
Lately I keep like 4 cooked roms in folder on my internal storage and when I feel the need to try a new rom I just copy it to root, change name and install OS from bootloader (volDown, backButton, resetButton).
That is my identical process. Sometimes they never make it to the flashing stage but always a couple on standby...lol

How to downgrade 6.5 to official HTC Diamond ROM???

Hi all,
I want to downgrade to 6.1 again after having 6.5 for about 2 days.
I'm experiencing audio issues, which I had before, I sent it to the service-center and it worked like a charm again.
So all I wan't to know is if it's possible to just download the official ROM from HTC.com and use theire RUU to downgrade. I'm a nooooob but I managed to install 6.5 pretty easily. But I don't know what hardSPL does etc. So i'm not totally sure if it's possible. Can anyone help with this. Having abolutely no audio is pretty anoying. Also searched the forum but found nothing usefull, allmost everybody comes to the conclusion that it's a hardware issue. Which is strange because why do I experience this after installing 6.5 and when I used 6.1 it worked.
Thanks in advance
Daan

Ok, let me try. I guess someone will correct me if I'm wrong with what I say
First HardSPL won't let you flash original rom directly. It will block SPL flashing, to avoid relocking or messing up the phone. So, regarding your problem, I would first try to flash a 6.1 cooked rom to make sure that the problem is hardware, not software.
If it's hardware, here is what I did when I had to return my phone:
- First, "cook" an official rom: you have to extract nbh, take only os.nb, rebuild the nbh, flash it.
- Eventually, flash the official radio if you tried alternative radio, same goes for logo.
- After that, your mobile should be almost like official, the only remaining "suspect" is the HardSPL. You have to flash back one of the stock SPL provided here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2324829&postcount=39. It has to be done at the end, when everything else is back to stock.
Don't have much time right now to give more details, let me know if you need more...
Thanks a lot man i'm at work right know but i'll try it out as soon as i get home
thanks again

Just got home from work.
Like you said, I need to know if the problem is HW or SW since i've experienced this problem before, maybe it overheated or something I don't know. Anyhoo I flashed radio 1.11.25.01 and it seems to work fine now. But the funny thing is that when I flashed it with 6.5 there were no problems at all but after about 15 hours or so when I tried to put on some music... Silence!!! F***. So I hope this won't just repeat itself endlessly.
The reason why I tried flashing the radio first is that I kinda like 6.5. But well, if it's going to happen again i'll use your method.
Thanks for the reply, I'll keep you posted if anything weird happens

Strange. Yes, it could be overheating Or, maybe a radio crash ? If it happens again, you should try to remove the battery, wait a few seconds and put it back again.
Crossing fingers for you
The sun is Shining!
Well the audio is still working, I'm draining the battery to check if it's maybe a power problem, but so far I still have sound and my battery is down to two bars in the windows mobile power meter (not in the menu bar)
So I really hope radio 1.11.25.01 fixed my problem
I hope this is my last post on this thread and if it isn't, we'll just have to dig further
Thanks very much,

bricked my GSM diamond with CDMA

hi folks,
seems to be that i have a BIG problem...
my t-mobile diamond had some heavy connection problems the last days (apart from this battery sucking system that made me charge it twice a day), so i decided to install both a new radio rom and a new WM rom on it.
after all those attempts didnt work (yes, i've read the threads and yes, i've followed the instructions! ), i got the ****ING IDEA to follow the instruction shown on youtube.com/watch?v=ZYGibMZC7-g (see also forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36062) for a CDMA diamond. don't ask why, i thought that i could own a cdma phone as all of the gsm software didn't work... :-//
during step no. 1 (unlocking - yes, i wanted to do the whole programm! :-/ ) my diamond switched off and ... is dead now! no chance to switch it on, no chance to get into bootloader, no chance to hardreset...
now my question to the pros: do i have ANY chance to reanimate my diamond? i would be grateful for any ideas!!! thanks in advance,
p.p.
have you tried vol down and soft reset simultaneously?

Try a hard reset. If that doesnt work see if you can enter bootloader. Instructions can be found in a search.

thanks, but as i've already written, both doesn't work. my diamond is simply... DEAD! :-(
yep looks like it
anyone ANY idea to get my diamond back to life?
my frind i think you nead a new mb so you must go to htc service
It was quite common, when people were looking desperately for SU and were using CDMA soft.. Sorry to say this, but your diamond is a brick now, and only motherboard replacement will do. there are some hardcore people on this forum who are rescuing such phones, but I'm not sure if they are still operational. Search for JTAG on teh forum, or send it to the service. If it;s on guarantee, then you should be fine, as they shouldn't be able to determine what happened. Otherwise you can always zap the phone with a stunner, and presto, phone ready for guarantee.
your phone is dead bro, i will be willing to buy it from you, i need peices to fix mine, pm me if interested
hey dude, dont worry..u're like the umpteeth guy who did it..just refer to this forum forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-488687.html..haha
I have long time ago also installed a CMDA-ROM accidentally. When the flashing procces ended I just got only the slpash screen (black without Rom Version Information).
I thought my Diamond was bricked but i could not believe it . After i had performed a hardware reset several times i used mitty and i could flash a ROM.
Now i have mostly a ROM as backup on my storage-card this in case it will go wrong during flashing procces.

Tilt2 tethering help

HI im having some very big problems with my tilt2. I can teather it fine but for some reason after a day or two i get the remote party has ended the connection, and no matter what i do to it, weather it be uninstall the script and speed patch and reinstall it, it wont help. so i have to format the phone and load it all over again and it works fine for about 2 days tops. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening? I seem to be formatting this phone every 2 days just to get it to teather.
i had the same thing happen to my kaiser with the stock att rom what i did was flash the rom and radio. after that problem was gone never happened again. you can also try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538874
i don't know if this is of any help to you. After you get the error message can you still connect with active sync?
nope
after the errormessage i cant connect on the internet at all, i have to formatt the phone and reload everything to get it to work again
Rom and radio
What rom and radio do you reccomend for the tilt2 thats stable
i remember getting that error on my blackjack, it was mostly because i let it idle and data disconnects when not in use. its not like its a stable connection. if you wanted that you buy the crappy little usb card.

the rom i'm using right now is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=617142
and Radio 4.49.25.91 i found the link on the same page.
if you're new to flashing i suggest you go here first http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540 it helped me out alot
Possible solution
The above mentioned "idle" problem is more than likely your culprit. I had a similar problem as well with the stock ROM. I suggest using NRG's Leo ROM to fix this problem. There are other solutions, but they are pretty tech savvy ones. Plus, if you haven't flashed your ROM yet, dude, you don't know what you're missing. The whole reason we're here is to push our phone's to the limit as far as functionality is concerned. Stock ROM's don't even cut it. Give a new one a whirl, I promise you won't be disappointed, plus, your reformatting issue will be gone as well, just a heads up from someone who's been around, you know?

For the Tilt2 you'll want to use the enablerapinew.cab file in the Hard SPL thread.
