Help I Can't Unlock My Diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi,
I have a big problem, today I connected my Diamond to my PC, when activesynch was connected, my Diamond has rebooted automaticly. After rebooting, my Diamond is locked automaticly and I can't unlock it. I have tried to unlock normaly (push, with the stylet, the button unlock) but nothing happens ! The TouchFlow don't work, I can't push the button !
I tried to reboot several times but for to reboot I can't push the power button because it is locked. I need to remove the battery and after my diamond reboot and it relock again.
I tried to HARD RESET (Volume Down and Enter button press + reset) but it's the same because these buttons are locked, it reboot same as soft reset.
My diamond has the ROM 1.37 UK and I have modified the configurations by the post "List of diamond tweaks" (with automatic locking and other performance configuration).
I just want to enter in my diamond but I can't flash again the ROM because it don't want to connect with activsynch because it is not started completly. It lock just when I have the screen "Windows mobile" in green.
Please Help me :-(

Take the battery out

Please read my post -->
"I tried to reboot several times but for to reboot I can't push the power button because it is locked. I need to remove the battery and after my diamond reboot and it relock again."
I know, I can reboot if I Take the battery out but after my Diamond is always locked.

Sounds like the phone is fubar'd...best to send it back seeing as you have tried most of the methods to get it sorted out.
wouldnt waste anymore time on it, id get it sent back to where you bought it from and get them to replace it or send it to HTC and get them to fix it.

Ok, I hope never have the same problem in the futur

Remote registry editing
If you can have the activesync connection working on your diamond, you could try to reset back the autolock feature by using a remote registry editor and the reboot your diamond.
You have to change back the following value:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDevic eLockEnable to 0

HELP!!! Urgent!

Hello. I am in desperate need of help. I left my blueangel charging in the craddle last night only to find it this morning with a blank screen. After trying to soft and hard reset it without any success all it shows is the blue imate startup screen and the software versions in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. I would appreciate any advice on the matter.
sounds like rom problems
first try remove battery for couple of minutes
also remove sdcard (if any inserted)
replace battery and reset device
if this won't help
Only thing you can try is to update the rom
I would also appreciate the contact details for a service center in spain. I have an Imate PDA2K bought in the UAE.
Thank you vastloper, I have tried that several times but makes no difference. On top of everything else I cant update the ROM as ActiveSync will not recognise the device, basically it will not connect to any other device. Any clue?
You do not need activesync to upgdate your rom, you need latest rom no matter which provider or version, reflas and then connect via activesync
why would ROM become defective all of a sudden? makes no sense.
take out the main battery and leave it for a few hours, (or overnight), so that the backup battery drains.
Then reassemble the phone - it should perform a hard reset on its own.
If this doesn't work, u may have a hardware problem.
try this for whoever get stuck at boot screen or in bootloader mode
1. Download mtty v1.42 from http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/mtty1.42.rar
2. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete)
kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
3. put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.
4. Run mtty (from downloaded) Choose WCEUSBSH001
5. type "set 14 0" without the quotes to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
6. type "task 28" to get your device formatted
7. type "task 0" to ask your device reboot
8. take the device out of the cradle, and manually reset it if it does not do that already.
good luck.

WM 6 NBD 7.3
IPL / SPL 2.26
GSM 02.25.11
OS 5.2.1413 (Build 17913.0.3.0)
Now i tried to go back to the latest German ROM Update provided by ORANGE CH.
(RUU_Prodigy_21611_2161111_010410_OR_CH_GER_Ship.exe)
The Update Process start's on the PC Screen and remains on 0% and will terminate with ERROR [260]: UPDATE ERROR
The Phone hangs and cannot enter in "3 color update mode".
I have to take out and reinsert the battery to bring the Wizard back to Work.
Then the Wizard start's up and you can work without any Problems. (Exept you have to set the Date / Time again it is set to 2006-02-14 12:00)
Next Steps
- did a Reboot on the PC and the Wizard -> Same Result
- tried to Flash NBD 7.3 ROM again -> Same Result
- did a Hard Reset (press the 3 Buttons on Reset then Send Button ) and tried to Flash again -> Same Result
- tried to manualy enter Update mode (press Camera Button on Reset) with the same Result the "3 color update mode" will not appear
Has anybody a Idea what else i can do?
Tnx in advance for any HELP

I assume the Problem is locatet on the PC and have to find out why i can't flash my Device again.
Recently i changed something on the PC - I installed a external BlueTooth-Dongle from MSI including the MSI BlueTooth Software
Starting now with the easyest step - reinstalling Active Sync 4.5 and try again.
Regards
Now everything works fine
I tried to Flash a ROM and it work's
i did not change anything exept entering the bootloader mode manually once.(no reinstall activesync or deinstall bt software !)
May be entering the Bootloader Mode manualy "cured" my PDA?
i don't know
Regard's
im glad you got it to work. Most important thing is to read make sure you know how to and are confident enough flash roms. Makes things a whole lot easier. Atleast that way if something goes wrong you will be able to backtrack a lot easier and maybe explain your situation a whole lot better. Hope everything else goes wonderful for you and have fun man.

Bricked my Diamond any Fix?

Hello
today i installed an application from untrusted source and it bricked my HTC touch diamond
it gets stock for 5 mins on the htc logo screen then displays "the device is unable to boot because either you have turned off the device incorrectly or tried to install an application from untrusted source, Press SEND to reset your device or press any other button to cancel, this operation will delete all your personal data and restore the device to its factory default settings."
i pressed all the buttons on my diamond but none works.
i would really be grateful if anyone helps me to fix my HTC (without erasing all the data if possible)
thanks for your time
have you tried a hard reset?
I can Hard reset it but is there any other way to fix it without losing the data or any way to copy the data to my PC while the device is bricked?
thanks
If you are able to reset your phone via a hard reset, it is not bricked. Backup people!
back up..........
and back up again

Whats the best way to back up?
Thanks
I'd recommend SKKV tols along with PPC PIM backup (don't forget about your registry.
you can find a lot of freeware backup apps over at freewareppc
Resco Backup is awesome if you don't mind paying a few bucks... How much is your valuable data worth to you?
I fixed my device thanks a lot for your help everyone!

You can enter the bootloader and connect it via USB there.
Enter + up on volume + stylus should enter a tri-color screen.

Can you get it into bootloader? {Hold Vol. down button while pressing power}
If it will go into bootloader, you can flash from there.
It worked
1. i've put it in bootloader [Hold Vol. down button while pressing power]
2. connected the diamond to my pc with USB-cable
3. Install the original rom

Update ROM by using the BootLoader
Hello there,
even though you can't boot into your OS in the Diamond, there's a way to enter "BootLoader" mode. I'm not sure it works, but you can give it a try.
Here's how:
- Connect the Diamond to your PC
- Enter bootloader mode on your Diamond: with the device turned on, press and hold the volume down button along with the power button, then press the reset button with the stylus tip, then release the volume down and power buttons when bootloader tricolour screen appears.
- Use the ROM Update Utility. If the previous step worked and your connection is working, then with some luck you will be able to Flash the Device with the ROM update utility.
I've tried to find the thread that discussed this with pictures and such but couldn't. You might want to look for similar instructions
Good luck
Shane
JTAG
does anyone managed to JTAG diamond?
