I forgot to put the DIAMING.nbh file on my diamond! now it just shows up with "Touch Diamond" and then resets! i need help please
is this an easy fix??
Thank you so much!
go to bootloader (vol down + reset) and flash new rom from romupdater in windows
i got to bootloader but it won't read my usb... there is no DIAMING.nhb file (or whatever it is called) on my phone.. is there any application that will let me get the usb to work.. any ideas???
thank you
i can still run the custom RUU, and it runs on my phone as well.. so is there anyway.. or is there already one out there that has the DIAMIMG.nbh with it so that it installs without the need to manually move the file to the phone..
thanks again
Yes it does, if u get into bootloader, connect your phone to PC, you should see written USB in bootloader a then run RUU from windows, it should work. I experienced similar problem and that was my solution
i tried to flash a different rom onto my diamond, and it got 100% done.. but still... i wasn't able to move the DIAMIMG.nbh file to my root... do i need to use a rom that doesn't have a DIAMIMG.nbh file? where would i find one.. if i may ask?
your help is appreciated thank you
UPDATE
ok... so i found, and downloaded 2 RUU roms. one of them got to 90% done, and the other got to 91% done... does anyone know why this is..? these are the official roms, (I think).
i have searched for the past 2 days almost nonstop, i need a rom that will fully install onto my phone. This rom can't have me move the DIAMIMG.nbh file over manually either, because i cannot do this in bootloader mode.
i tried these 2 official roms. _HTC Touch Diamond_QMR_RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.93.401.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe
and this one,
RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.26.25.09_0.93.25.26_Ship.exe
do you know where i could download some other roms at? thanks
did you use Hard-SPL? maybe something with spl theres wrong
When flashing from your PC, you don't move an NBH over.
Go to htc.com, support, and download the current rom for your phone.
Soft reset holding volume down
Connect to your PC (DIRECTLY and NOT through a hub)
Run the updater you just downloaded from HTC
ya. i'm using hard-spl..
i tried getting a rom from htc, but i don't think that it's recognizing my s/n.. could i borrow someone elses??
i'm connecting my phone to a USB that's located in the back of my computer... i don't think it's a hub, but i'll try a different port maybe..
thank you again
so here's the full story.
i tried to install a rom.. it was shaks v3. and this was the rom. -> 2.03.401.2
i didn't put the diamimg.nbh file on it before i flashed it.
the RUU ran fine, but afterwards it was stuck just saying "touch diamond" , and it was resetting itself constantly.
i got into bootloader mode, and noticed that i could not transfer files from my computer to phone through that..
so i downloaded a rom that didn't require you to move the .nbh file over manually. it got to 90% , and then stopped i tried another, and it got to 91% and stopped, i tried another, it got to 89% and stopped, and i tried one more that got to 19% and stopped. i have tried using these RUU's on different computer's to install also..
IS there any way to move files using the bootloader mode? i know that the computer recognizes it, but not as a device with removable storage..
I'm starting to lose hope with my phone, and any help will be greatly appreciated
i don't know if it makes a difference, but i got my phone from Sprint.
ok!!! i totally just remembered that roms were made for CDMA users (Sprint verizon vodafone... ME) and GSM users... i was trying to flash a GSM rom onto my phone...
make sure that you know what type of rom to flash.. there are CDMA roms out there.. you just have to search...
thank you Felipe404, for your quick replies, and you made this easier for me.
thanks to JonInAtl for the precise reply...
both of your guy's help made a huge difference, that you don't even know.
WHOA!!!!!!
yea, i did the same thing,.. flashed my gsm diamond with cdma rom, after flash it just showed the bootscreen - Touch Diamond and there it stopped... so i got to the bootloader, connected the device to pc and flashed another rom from computer.. and it did work
no problem mayne
Just to clarify here, the ONLY reason to copy DIAMIMG.nbh to your device is if you do not want to update with the RUU. You can install every ROM using the RUU regardless of who made it.
That said, every time I want to update, I do have to copy it over to my phone as the USB port on it no longer works (it still charges, just says unknown device regardless of the ROM).

Hi guys. After som serious flashing of cooked ROMs I decided for some unknown reason that I should try to restore a stock ROM. Now, being very tired as I was, i completely forgott that its probably a good idea to flash a new Stock ROM on the unit BEFORE flashing it with a signed SPL....so I just flashed the Signed SPL to the device. That in it self seem to have gone ok, because when I start the unit it say "SPL-1.15.0000". Problem is though that it also says "Upgrade ROM error, please try again"
Now, what should I do? Have tried put both signed and unsigned SPLs on the storage card and started up via the volume down/pwr button thingy, but that does not seem to do anything. I have also tried to attach the unit to a USB port when in tricolor mode ("USB" shows up on the screen) and tried the CustomRUU program. It finds the device and starts to "upgrade" (grey screen on the device with 0%) but then it just doesnt seem to get any further...
As the device was working fine with a custom ROM before I started all this, I suspect that the main problem proably is that I now have a Standard SPL with a cooked ROM, and that they collide sort of. I, as well as the Blackstone, is now stuck and I am all out of ideas what to do? Have also tried Hard and Soft resets, but that doesnt seem to change anything.
Help!
try removing the SD Card and put the phone into bootloader mode and re-flash the stock ROM! if this doesn't work ... still with the SD Card removed try flashing to USPL and flash the stock ROM again!
hope this helps
You can try USPL on your HD and flash a custom or stock ROM with it.

Thanks for the feedback!
Just be be sure, "into bootloader mode" is when you start the device holding down volume down and powerkey until you see the tricolor screen? Then that is probably what I have tried to do for a while now without success (total success that is, I do get into the tricolored screen)). Or maybe I am doing something wrong, could you perhaps point to a detailed explaination besides the one in "HardSPL" thread?
USPL I havnt tried, will do that! Is it still so that trying to do USPL on Vista is asking for trouble?
I read somewhere that Stock ROMs should only be flashed from internal storage, not SD cards, is that true? If so, how do I go about accessing that storage now when it doesnt show up in the file explorer on my PC (PC recognizes it as USB device, "HTC Sync" but I get no file access to it).

bootloader mode is when you power off the device and hold the volume button down and press power till you get the tricolor screen...
so here is what you need to do .
1. remove the sd card
2. go into the tricolor mode connect your device to the pc and make sure it says (USB) at the bottom
3. run the stock shipped exe from you pc
if that didn't work then you should try the USPL version.. and there is a guide if you are using vista.. i just tried and worked fine.. here it is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3331078&postcount=153
and the reason i'm asking you to remove the sd card because if you have a rom (blacimg.nbh) it won't let you do anything it will try to flash from the sd card and right now you don't want to do that.
and you shouldn't put any rom into the internal storage of the phone..

What happens if you do that? will it try and flash over the flash? Proper *&@! it up?

i don't think anything would happen... the file will get deleted when you flash as the rest of the files in the internal memory
Thank you everyone! The USPL thing solved it, when I did it from a XP machine! The once bricked Blackstone is not alive an kicking again!
About USPL, I saw the workaround for Vista, but downgrading a few components to make it work just doesn't seem like a safe way to do it. And I cant help but to think that it might have unwanted side affects, ie affecting system stability. But maybe I am wrong?
Going back to shipped ROM without bricking?
Hi,
After reading this thread I am now a bit worried and, as a newbie, would appreciate maybe a "simple" answer to my question.
I''ve been experimenting with various cooked ROMs after following the guide in the WIKI for installing HardSPL and then putting the ROM file (BLACKIMG.nbh) on my SD card and installing it using the power on + volume down button method.
However, I now want to revert back to the original "shipped" ROM, which I have downloaded from the list of shipped ROMs via the WIKI (I downloaded the one which closely matched what was originally on my HD - as I didn't know how to backup the actual ROM on my HD at the time).
So, my question:
How should I put the downloaded original/shipped ROM:
RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.3_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship.exe
into my HD without bricking it?! Do I just run it on my PC with ActiveSync enabled or do I need to do something to remove the HardSPL or something first?
Sorry if this has been answered previously but I get confused when a thread just makes loads of references to SPLthis and SPLthat etc.!
if you have the HardSPL already installed on your phone then you don't need to do anything more.. just connect your phone to the pc and let it sync (activesync enabled) and flash to any shipped rom you want by simply running the exe file..

Hello,
I know you guys got some excellent walkthroughs, roms, programs and threads where you've helped a lot of people out but I could really use some personal feedback. I had hoped to fix my phone using one of the excisting threads but unfortunalty I can't get it to work with those.
My problem is one I've seen more of in here, I used the SE updater and it froze at 53%, I did what the program said, reconnected and it froze again at 12%, and again, again, etc. So I disconnected thinking it might be a bad USB port. But then the updater didn't recognise my phone at all. So I used the mtty program suggested in some of the threads and I got past the red/green/blue screen but now it's stuck at the Sony Ericson logo, as if WM6.1 is gone.
This is what the red/green/blue screen currently states:
KOV110
SPL-0.78.0000
MicroP1-787
MicroP2-707
From what I gather this means I can't flash roms, right? I tried making it a hard-spl but when I use the tool it says it can't connect.
So is there anyway to get a rom on it and bring it back to life?
Thanks inadvance!
Get an original rom from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475482
copy .nbh file from the package onto your sd card and rename it to : Kovsimg.nbh then bring phone into boot loader via : vol down + power.
It should flash the rom now. i the problem is still present after that you
have to deal with mTTy but first try the flash...
i think you could also bring phone into bootloader without sd card inserted then connect usb cable, display should now print 'USB',and after that start rom update utility.

Thank you for your reply, I will do as you said although I've already tried something similiar to this. I believe the problem was that I couldn't flash roms from my SD since I don't have the hard SLD. But I will try it anyway as soon as I get home.
In the mean time I would love to hear more ideas about how to fix my phone.

You really need have to flash the HardSPL first as, based in your above post, you still have not done that. It will be useless to flash cooked ROM with that. If you can still power on your phone and you have an activesynch in your computer, i suggest you download the HardSPL first and update your phone using your PC. If you are successful doing that, then you can flash all you want.
original roms will still work with original spl... but nevermind =P

My phone can still power on in the sense that it shows the Sony Ericson logo or that I can access the three collor screen. But it won't launch WM6.1. I also have a problem with updating to hard DSL. It does recognise my phone because without it connected the program finds nothing and with the phone connected it wants to start updating. It says ''updating from image version: (emply) to image version: 1.00.X1 Ipress next and it opens a progress bar on both my X1 and the PC. But it never goes beyond 0% and then gives me an connection error. I think it has something to do with not being able to get passed the Sony Ericson logo. I mean the hard-DSL program does recognise my mobile but activeSync is never active because my PC doesn't recognise a WinMobile phone (since it wont go past the Sony Ericson screen)

Really? That might fix my device then. Could you suggest a rom from the long list? Perhaps one that works on all versions? Because I'm dutch but my mobile has always been in english so I'm not sure what rom version I had. Except that it was identified as an R2 Rom by the Sony updater before it killed my X1...
Go here
Find the latest stock rom for your country (and perhaps your carrier) and flash it
No need to have Hard SPL for that

Alright so I got an R1 original rom (I now realize that the R3's were originals aswell) and it worked! I'm not sure if it was the different rom or the formatting with FAT32 that did but it works again. So I'd like to thank everyone who was kind enough to reply.
The device is incredibly slow now but now I can use the hard-DSL installer, right? DOes anyone have a suggestion for a good rom to use?

DON'T hard-spl if you're going to flash a stock ROM. And especially if you're going to use SEUS.
Try flashing the R3A first. The R1s are way slow, as you've seen.
Heey guys,
A mate wanted me to flash his DIAMOND so i thought let's do that.
-downloaded Hard SPL, Radio and ROM.
Somewhere along the process something went wrong. I can get into the bootloader. can do factory reset (without any reslut).
I booted up and all I get is TOUCH DIAMOND screen.
Now I've searched the entire forum (also cheking out other options and phones issue's)
So the suggestion is to go back to stock. And the funny thing is they all need the Active Sync connection, I can't get there.
Please somebody help me out here
Put your fone in bootloader, then connect the usb cable to your pc, your pc will install a driver call htc usb sync, after that you should see the words usb at the bottom of the screen instead of serial, one it says that you can use a ruu to flash a rom of your choice
2# is definitely right !Just do it and your issue will be solved !
ok I'll try that.
Funny stuff. tried flashing it again all night without any succes RUU kept giving me errors.
Now this morning I'm at work and thought to give it just one more try.
It's flashing now.
ThnQ guys/gals
Dear Readers,
I have a few concerns about my recently bought Htc diamond.
The problem is that during bootup it stays frozen on the Touch Diamond bootscreens.
It has HardSPL Olinex v1.93 on it.
First i flashed back to the Stock Rom, worked fine only a couble of unexpected freezes wich made me think into using Mtty(set 14 0, task 29, task 8) to fully clear the phone and than reflash the NLD rom back on it.
Now flashing the rom went al the way 100%, and Congrats me after that.
I rebooted after that but never goes past the bootscreen with the red info lines.
So i thougt that restoring the SPL 1,93 olinex to factory setting might do the trick. But there is no way to do that since i cant get active sync to connect!
My problems is that although i can acces all bootloadmethods ,the phone is being recognized through USB, and all Rom/SPL flashes goes up to 100%. It still doesnt seem to save that rom on its memory.
and when i check the screens of the CustomRUU program it doesnt show any info add the older software version, only shows the info of the rom wich im going to flash.
If i check the USB icon on the task bar while connected to the pc, it says something like ..Qualcomm CDMA.. etc. ! the phone wasnt a CDMA version!
Any ideas?? is it Fixable or do my cats have something new to chew on??
many thanx,
Jeffrey
Copy any ROM you want to your Internal Storage, rename .nbh to diamimg.nbh, Restart your diamond and than immediately press Vol Down and back button, once in a bootloader press power button to flash rom, once finished restart Diamond, and see if ROM will be installed successfully

What to do with this link??
I got Mtty running but i cant acces internal storage to copy a rom to it, and flashing by USB went all the way 100% but somehow the phone never boots in to the flashed rom.
Even trying a reflash doesnt show any signs of an older Rom being present on the phone memory..
One question about Mtty, when its said to use the ROM flasher i kinda assumed they ment the CustomRUU program. Am i right, or is there some build-in command to Flash a ROM within MTTY??

I had a problem with my phone where I did mtty, but forgot to rename the diamimg.nbh file on my phone. So it wouldn't get passed the bootscreen.
My solution was to connect the phone to the usb, hold down the up arrow(I think it was the up arrow) and soft-reset. It came up with those 3/4 color blocks and said "usb" at the bottom. I then used the official htc ruu(also didn't show the current rom on it) to flash the normal htc rom onto it and it worked. Then I just did the normal procedure to get the custom rom on again.
So are you trying to flash the original HTC rom onto it, or a custom rom? Cause if it's a custom ROM, maybe it's just the radio, not the actual OS?

I tried both custom and Stock Roms several times. After flashing the Stock roms i noticed that the radio version get updated, just no OS to boot!
Since the flashing sequence completes to 100%, i think its strange that the os doent seemed to be copied at all. Is there a possibility that a bad SPL is causing the OS not to be found?? In the Bootloader it still says SPL v1.93 Olinex so i guess its still Hard spl'ed. But when i try connect the phone to pc by usb, it shows up as Qualcamm CDMA device then later changes to HTC...
The Phone is not a CDMA version but i think maybe there is a change that somehow a CDMA SPL accidentlly got uploaded to it. This supposed to cause a phone to brick.
Many thanx for trying to help!

Ok, maybe you can try from scratch to re-flash everything?
You should still be able to HardSPL, by doing the soft-reset+vol down thing.
I'd suggest getting the HardSPL from here(I only used it once, but I know it worked for me):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
Hopefully that alone is what you need but if it isn't, you should then be able to flash a radio onto the phone(there's a link in that thread too) and then the stock HTC rom(I think the stock would have a better chance than anything else)
All of those flashes should be possible by doing the soft-reset+vol down and then using the RUU. Do you know how to use the RUU to flash a HardSPL, Radio and then OS separately?
you should probably try a full mtty just before you flash the OS(just after you flash the radio) as well, do the set 14 0,task 28 and task 29 and then task 8
And regrading Windows picking up your phone as a CDMA, I can't remember what mine said, but I don't think you should worry much about what Windows thinks the phone is.
*Edit, you should follow the mtty guide here for the most part:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540290
But the second last step(number 7) where you're required to remove the usb cable, soft-reset+vol down+back button to flash from the internal storage, you should keep the phone connected to the usb and soft-reset+vol down and flash the rom using the RUU

But the second last step(number 7) where you're required to remove the usb cable, soft-reset+vol down+back button to flash from the internal storage, you should keep the phone connected to the usb and soft-reset+vol down and flash the rom using the RUU

Ok i tried its flashing the Stock HTC NLD rom now aroun 42.. 43%, its slow but atleast still going. This is a big Rom tough.
Two questions:
1. Flashing the hardspl took some time to initiate the progression bar and then suddenly in the blink of an eye from 0 to 100%,
after flashing the hardspl file wich showed in RUU as olinex v 1.40, it still showed SPL.193 olinex on the bootloader.. .. is this common??
2. Is it even possible to downgrade a bootloader?? i would love to have olinex 1.40 back.. i used it before and it worked fine on many roms...i keep thinking my SPL is the problem.
Bye now the Rom flashing finished and it didn't help.. its still frozen.
here is the output from MTTY, may be its usefull:

,thanx any way
Did you use the corresponding stockRom (the one with the corresponding spl i mean):
_QMR_RUU_Diamond_HTC_NLD_1.93.404.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship
Just in case you didn't, you can find it over here:

Yes i did try, didnt work for me..
i kinda lose hope now.
Losing a phone sucks, first lost my iphone3g then bought this cheap as a replacement for the remaining contract, And now i really regrets that i tried restoring its stock rom,radio,spl since its really did brick the phone for good..
thanks for all the people that tried to help but i'm not sure if its fixable....
So thanx anyway..

Hi,
Was hoping someone can help me...the USB port on my HTC Touch Diamond2 has stopped working. When i plug it into my pc (or any other pc) it just charges the phone. I have tried everything from changing the connection settings on the phone itself, to different USB cables. I upgraded my phone to 6.5 a while back and never really got my USB to work after that, so im not sure if that maybe changed something.
The warranty on the phone has ran out, so cant really take it back to get fixed.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
It could be damaged pins, but it sounds like your USB to PC connection settings are messed up. What is selected when you open this setting?
Hi, for loading another rom you can use SD card flashing.
unpack stock ROm with WinRar or use .nbh file from cooked rom
rename Ruu_Signed.nbh to topaimg.nbh
put topaimg.nbh in root of your sd card
go to bootloader
Hi - yes, tried flashing it with the latest ROM from the supplier, but still i cant get it to work...the ROM i got is also the latest ROM and i think it might be the same one i flashed it with when it stopped working. Is there a site i can get the stock standard (6.1 i think) from? Thinking about it, it definitly stopped working after flashing it with 6.5. Geez, I've tried everything now...
Here is Topaz ROM mirror thread.
