Just bricked my Diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Obviously did something wrong in the ROM upgrade. I was trying to install Hard SPL, and it said it wasn't compatible with my phone's SW version - and now it won't switch on, which I find odd. Any ideas?

Have you tried to flash an original ROM already?
EDIT: That won't do if you can't switch your Diamond on.....

I have the Same problem .
Do you try Volume down + reset to go to bootloader ?

That's the problem when you don't have an SD card port. If the hard reset doesn't help, I guess that the solution would be to use something like mtty.

solution
Hi everybody! never give up, you can always repair it: try to find your original rom, connect your diamond to your computer, put it in bootloader and lunch rom update utility. Normaly it will work, i repared my last elfin doing that.
tell me if it work!
regards

it won't turn on at all

Ive not had this problem after a rom upgrade because I havent done one but I did have a problem where something boofed and it wouldnt turn on and I had to remove the battery and sim card and re-insert for it to turn on...maybe worth a try...

Neither the bootloader works?

take the battery out for 30 sec, put it back, press volume down + power button and press with you stylus reset. If it goes in Boot loader Connect it to your USB and load the new rom!
Hope that helps!

Don't worry. I used a GSM rom on my CDMA phone, then nothing worked. Even all type of reset, they did not work. Just find out a correct ROM to reflash it, then should be fine. Now my phone has 90% of function recovery

I suggest you to take out the battery out for quite sometime, let the backup battery die. Power it up later on and follow flashing procedure again.
It is always suggested to use Laptop for upgrading as they dont get affected by power shutdown for short time.
Hello Folks,
I tried all suggested til now. I took out the battery for more than a week but the problem is (and was) that I couldn't get a connection anymore with the Qtek thru activesync 4.5.0
The device isn't seen by the computer. Not even when I say activsync to connect to a device.
Still open for more suggestions
qtek doesnt do anyting
if your qtek doesnt doe anything any more try giting it in to bootloader mode and the try to reflash it if you cant get in to bootloader mode your device is nearly finished and you cant do anything more with it the return it to qtek and let them put a new flash chip in it
or get your hand on a new flash chip and a good manual of getting it opend and let someone who can reather good solder solder the old flash chip out of your device and let him put the new one in it and your device must be okaey after that and you can havefun with your device and the when you upgrade you qtek do it eith a laptop because laptops have an battarey that is capebale of work for 1 hour when the power is down or with a traffel battarey it can work on full loaden one for 3,5 hours

Dejan
if he didn't flash any cooked rom onto the phone, just give htc a call, and see if they will replace it, if it still in warranty period.
Presume you have tried a Hard Reset and tried to install from fresh? If not try this, does not matter if the Internal Memory is corrupt...this should still work...
If not I would pass back to the customer and advise to get warrenty repair

What do u mean "different device id" ?
So there is no power to the device? (take out the battery & place it back in).

Sometimes flashing a radio can brick your phone, not much you can do I don't think.

Strange problems with my X1!!!!

1: I cannot flash my X1 using any methods! see this link
2: When the X1 is on and i'm trying to turn the screen on, i'm pressing the power button but the Dialpad and Calendar will automaticly comes up it's just like i'm pressing dial and left silver button together with power button
3. I think that's why my vol down+power button is not working as well as silver buttons when trying to hard reset!
Please help me, it's not even a long time that i'm using it!
(sorry for my bad english)
Have you tried flashing by USB method instead of Via Memory Card?
sorry, dont funny to read the thread, so this question could be known by you.
did you turned off your phone by long pressing the off button?
the second way is a little bit tricky:
push reset .. than (no longer than 0,5 seconds) off + vol_down until vibration comes and tree-color-screen.
it works too after taking battery out and than back. but more time for pushing off +vol_down.

Strange this is the second person claiming about the same stuff... anyway... take out memory and try hard reset.
I did everything!!! Nothing helped!
I'm going to flash it back to stock ROM. i donno if i can
i had the same problem...[after a LITTLE cola damage ]
i contacted the sony ericsson support and they repaired me my x1 [switched a key] even their was set a custom rom...
"if the problem is caused by the custom rom you have to pay 25€ for setting an original rom otherwise we will repair it on guarantee"
so the best thing is to tell the hotline what you´ve already tried and send it to x1 support center...
the german firma "becker&partner" was realy fast...after 3-4 days i´ve got my x1 back
doesn´t know where you are living/how fast the x1 support is in other countries

Hi Wraaaaap and ISP! Today i had the problem num 262 when trying reflash stock bios, and I found the way that don't need to press power + vol down buttons. maybe it might works for U guy. But firstly, your phone have to normally start up, and can access to windowns screen. And then, go to this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218 follow instruction in order to flash bios again. If Ur phone have 0.72.OliNex (or 0.52.OliNex MFG) U should flash it back to stock bios? Before reflashing bios, take off SD card, copy stock ROM to SD card and remane it to Kovsimg.nbh, put back to the phone...Start flash. and vice-versa if ur phone's bios is tock one. Hope it will help U

if ur phone stops at silver screen, shows "loading..." so u take off SD card and copy ROm in there (if stock bios so copy stock ROM or 0.72 so copy any cooked Rom) rename ROM to Kovsimg, put the card back to the phone, take off battery and start again. It might work.
don't need to press anything, just power button one time.

My HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) was dead :(

Hello guys!
Sorry my bad english!
I installed to WM6.5 ROM in my HTC phone in february. I used may months, all day...
And yesterday i switch on my phone, put on my desk, and today, i see , that the screen get white. It dont do nothing, just get white. I restart the phone many times, and remove the battery, the phone do this: i enter my security password (i locked my phone) and then its go to white screen, and dont do nothing. And if i swich on my phone, and dont do nothing, its just go to frozen...
A dont install nothing my phone since many weeks.
Maybe, the WM6.5 ROM was out of date???
I dont know, but if i connected my phone to PC, the PC isnt known my device...
I dont do nothing, my phone was dead, and im a big trouble (((((((((((
PLEASE HELP ME!
did u try to hard reset it?
can u still enter bootloader mode?
if u can still enter bootloader then try flash another ROM
I think there is a timebomb in the Rom you are using.
Go to bootloader menu, connect to usb, and try to flash an other rom by installing via Windows.
okay, but what is the hard reset? Is that a red button on my device back?
if it is, i try this, but it isnt solve my problem.
and how i can go the bootloader menu?
thank a lot.
Don't worry...just try the hardreset:
1. With the device turned off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons, then briefly press the POWER button.
2. Continue pressing the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons until you see this message on the screen:
This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to the manufacturer default settings. Press VolUp to restore manufacturer defaults, or press other keys to cancel.
3. Release the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
4. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
If this does not work...just flash another rom...it really seems to have this timebomb issue...you don't have a hardware problem...it's just the software.
here's a video instruction for the hard reset:

thanks a lot, the hard reset worked!!!
thanks!!!

Flash the latest Hard SPL http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=179550&d=1240516932
I'm curious, what way did you flash these roms. Are you using USPL or HSPL or have you just flashed these straight from stock?
i used an older february HSPL, now, i will put on my device the latest version, thanks the idea!

2 versions of HSPL, 1.14 & 1.56. You will need HSPL 1.56 on your device to be able to use roms based on 1.56+
thanks a lot, i flash the new HSPL, and now, all phone function back to normal!!!
THANKS!!
Impressed by the support
Hello,
I was watching this thread continously and whenever i try to jump in to help you with tips about flashing, someone would have done it already.
I feel somewhat releived to know that your Kit(d) is back on track.
I like this forum very much not just for the solutions but also for the people's attitude.
