Just plug it into the wall outlet and call ATT and they will send the ROM over the air to your phone. They have a "push 1 for this rom" or "push 2 for that rom". It's a cakewalk and only takes seconds.

Read the wiki. It has all been written and outlined for you, my young padawan....

A Better Way
Put the phone in a tub of water. Reach in and turn it on. Make sure the water is plenty Hot. Your new rom will appear with the smoke jeannie.

my diamond reboots itself..!

Hi all,
just wondering is there anyone who experience same problem as mine..?
After couple of day of use, my diamond start to reboots itself without any reason.. i've done hard reset, didn't install any program. I have synced with my computer and that's all i've done and it just reboots on me!
it happens so randomly.. so i don't really see any direct cause..
usually happens when i open and try to edit contacts, or trying to reply sms..
doesn't happen very often though. after reset, it stays stable for a while.. and suddenly happens again next day.
any advice? should i try to re-install rom?
i got this from ebay overseas and i don't really want to go thru the hassle of sending back for a/s
Thanks in advance

When you hard reset, did you choose the option to clear 'Internal Storage' as well?

mod edit: Please be polite on the forums, and read the FAQ before posting

oh..
@marisa
No I haven't tried that.. thank you i'll give it a go
@cammy
well, thanks to you too. i don't expect to get diamond in my country so ebay is kinda my only choice. hope you don't have to wait long

There's absolutely no need for that. They're clearly more enthusiastic about this device than you, so accept that - and they've found quite an interesting problem that hasn't been found before...

Well, following lukybandit's example in the Excalibur forum (so check that for more info), I've decided to start a similar thread here. To save space, here is the original, where the idea came from:
lukybandit said:
Hello Guys,
I notice newbies or sometimes, even regulars asking stupid questions. To save space on XDA, here are some examples that you should steer away from. Take this seriously and it's all in good fun. Before I show you some examples, this is to show that some questions are either already answered in the forum, or use your common sense or finally, if you have no common sense - READ the forum. Everyone was once a newbie but how did we all get here? We searched, read and maybe asked a question here and there, but valid questions. So use the "Search" button, find yourself a topic and seek knowledge. We're all here to help but don't flood the forum with stupid questions. This is to teach all newbies to avoid these kind of questions and cut the regulars some slack. From nowonwards, whatever DUMB thread I find, I will trash it and post the link here.
Example #1:
Can I Put The App(Fruity Loops) On My Dash?

Give me a Break. How do you expect to convert a 5 GIG .exe (Windows Install) file to a .cab? It's a phone. Damn it - Yes, this phone can DO a lot of things but don't expect to scratch your records on a phone. Who the hell is mixing a song on their phone? No Professional !!! haha What has the world come to? You see someone mixing a song on the bus, head bangin' - pissed off cause he isn't getting the beat right cause his **** ain't tight - well no, DUH you mixing on a PHONE lol

How do I enable them? At the moment all I get is my alarm goes off, which just leaves an alarm icon in the top menu bar for me to click on, but I want the brief details to appear in a bubble - is there a reg setting for this?

Doesnt the Diamond have an LED?
Hello!
I bought my Diamond yesterday *yay*...
I wonder, that small transparent piece of plastic built into to the earpiece. Is that an LED?
If yes, mine doesn' t blink or anything. Should it? And if yes, when?
I had an HTC Wizard before which blinked green when I had signal and orange when charging or a message received.

Every battarie will be loaded in the same way; there is no software which controls the voltage based on the battarie!!

I posted my share of stupidity. I believe we all did.
But I agree it comes to a point where its to much!
What about banning the word fagphone?? (iPhone) thats were my support is!

I was scheptical so i reserved myself to the idea that we should really make a harmless joke app that shows you the batt is charging. Then see how many people download it.
Also could you guys tell me how to modify the registry so my phone heats up more because want to put it in my cofee every morning.

is it possible to install xp (sp2 or sp3) on htc diamond??
storage(4gb) is enough for install xp so maybe it is posiblle?
probably i will need some other boot loader??

There are 3 command you can enter:

[email protected]?1
[email protected]?0
[email protected]=270F,270F
These do the following
[email protected]?1 - Shows Outbound time in HEX
[email protected]?0 - Shows Inbound time in HEX
[email protected]=270F,270F - Reset both timers to zero.

I use ATcommander and send

it's OK, but when i send [email protected]=270F,270F i see ERROR
I've installed Hard-SPL
Why?
Thanks

I knew it......
... when i enter the 270F,270F it says ERROR.
Correct me if i'm wrong Dave. You simply type in what you told me to, namely the AT code and hit send, yes?

I am truly amazed at the amount of help offered to someone who wants to sell a used phone as new. Spare a thought for the poor sod who will be conned into this. And please don't start the "it's like new business", you know it isn't.

You might need security unlock or Hard SPL at least to do this.
So if you have HardSPL already, you possibly need security unlock. Security unlock is still been worked on at the moment, so you could be stuck for a while.
Sorry, but I don't own a Blackstone to test on.
Thanks

What I am trying to bring to this thread is a bit of ethos and concern for the guy to whom you will flock your wears. 3 days or 133 days you have no right to clock it and present it for something it isn't. It is also illegal.

Illegal? Well 2 things.
1. As you'll have noticed, i'm new to all this side of things as far as XDA goes so i was unaware of that.
2. Tell that to everyone else and quit hassling me.

The ethics and ethos of this have been discussed everytime a thread like this is started.
As this is not possible at the moment I see no need for this discussion to continue.

Ok well since you guys won't help him I will.
The quickest way to root your G1: First you need a car battery and some jumper cables. Take your USB cable and splice into it, wire it to the positive jumper cable, now ground the other end onto a metal surface. Next thing is to press the power+camera+home+menu+back buttons as fast as you can, while doing so start humming the theme to MASH and have a friend tickle the battery cover of your G1. Do that for a good 17 minutes. Now unhook everything and rub one out, then wipe the ejaculate onto your screen and try making a smiley face. Last step, and most important......kill a cat while your power the phone on, not a kitten though and preferably a black cat as they work the best.
If you did it all right you will now have superhuman capabilities and your mother will cry when she sleeps at night.

Wow, that exactly how I rooted mine but I failed the first time cause I used a kitten, maybe you should write the guide codani, you might make a better one than me, don't forget to reserve the first 3 posts for the future
