Hi,
I am having issues with my HTC Diamond after reseting my handset this morning i was presented with the bootloader screen with no apparant operating system.
I have managed to install a rom and went through the setup screens but upon completion the phone reboots and i am back to the boot loader.
My phone has SPL 1.34.Hard and was running the last dutty rom for about 2-3 months.
Anyone have any ideas on what i can do short of ring up my insurance and telling them i lost it haha
After some reading of a hundred million threads i came across the solution which i will share here incase anyone has my problem.
Hold down volume up + center button and reset (with your third hand lol). The screen then goes gray and preform a restore.
I really hope this helps someone else in that finds there way into my situation
Seems to bve getting beyond a joke now lol. the Phone boots up and then loads into WinMo. After reseting the device it goes straight into the boot loader again and stays there.
I have tried both options on the restore screen including the formatting of the NAND memory.
[edit] Ran the process again and it worked the second time reboots into the OS now [/edit]

I have a big problem.....
My phone hung this morning on the alarm. It kept on going. So I turned off the phone. A few hours later I booted up the phone again but it didn't boot to the os... it is stuck in the 3 colored bootloader screen
I tried reflashing the original WM6.1 rom. It worked.... until the cusomization had ran. After the customization reboot there was the bootloader again.....
Can anyone help me on this?
Info in the bootloader screen is as folows:
KAIS130
SPL-3.29.0000
CPLD-8
USB
Please help!!
First thing I'd do, is a bulk standard Hard reset on the phone. if it crashes again on the customise, then hard reset again, and soft reset before the customise kicks in.
alternatively, if you're happy to try a custom ROM, then flash it to a new one.
if these dont work, then its time to approach HTC, and see if you can get it repaired...
I allready did a hard reset after flashing my tytn and a soft reset before getting the customization screen. But every time it boots up and it wants to configure my phone. So I cannot get arround the cusomization
While re-flashing my TyTN II to the Orange WM 6.1 Test ROM I did the reset before the customisation...and what happens the phone resets itself to default. It seems that the operators have found a way to make sure that their customisations are added.
Mine is purchased without a account. So there should be no provider **** on it..... It's a realy weird problem though....
Could it be dirt??? I left the battery out for a few hours and it works for a short time. Putted my sim card back in and it stopped working. Reboot and it worked again for a short time but after te next reboot its over again and it wil not come back again. I now plan to leave the battery out for the night see how it is in the morning...
Anyona an idea (bump)
I've got the same problem.
Although I'm able to restart successfully the Kaiser randomly.
If you pay attention to the tricolor screen... it blanks the screen for a very short moment. Precisely in that moment, a message is written in the screen
" No imgafile file found! "
And then went back immediatley to the tricolor screen.
My Kaiser is HTC orginal, updated with the original HTC ROMWINDOWS MOBILE 6.1. I did not nothing special to it, I treated always it carefully... It seems a random Hardware problem. HTC is an awfull brand.
Now I have to go to HTC service... they will get my phone for a couple of months at least.... and I know (from previous experiencies) they work very very badly (they can give your phone back even broken!!)
Conclusion... HTC never more.
Did have the same problem. Asked and RMA to HTC. Shipped the phone on june 30th. Phone came back repaired yesterday !
This morning... the %$* red green blue reappear when I soft reset the unit.
Not very reliable, will have to buy another phone.
Hello guys!
I'm having some trouble with my HTC Touch Diamond. I am running the latest ROM, and the phone has worked perfectly since I've got it!
But one day it suddenly powered itself of during a phonecall and I was not able to power it on again. I removed the battery, put it in again, didn't work. Took out the battery and waited for almost 30 minutes, tried again and now it worked!
Since then the phone locks up in no systematical pattern (when I wake up in the morning it mybe locked itself, sometimes when I listen to the radio or typing an SMS..). Do you have any idea what the problem might be? Can't type in the serial number as I just have managed to turn it on.
What should be mentioned is the behavior when trying to start it. Either the phone gives no respons, or it "buzzez" and the display shows "touch diamond", but the rom version is not appearing down to the right. When it starts, it starts just as it should and no error messages is displayed.
I have not tried doing a hard reset yet, which I must say is considered the last option.
Have anyone experienced something like this? Or does anyone have a suggestion about what might be causing this?
Thanks on beforehand
Edit: have performed a hard reset now (did not format the 4gb). But the problem is not gone.. The phone just died while surfing. Now it locks at the green windows mobile-screen just before the homescreen loads (if it even boots at all...)
Please help anyone!
So, I plugged my Kaiser (Tilt) into my computer the other day to charge it, and the next morning when I unplugged it, I noticed it was locked up. No biggie, I soft-reset it, and it came directly back to the bootloader (right before the bootloader shows is a white screen, that says "Loading image... No image found!", that flashes for a fraction of a second.
If I plug it into my computer at this point, Windows says the USB device has malfunctioned and it doesn't recognize it. I can't flash it ("connection error"), and it wouldn't hard reset.
Then it kinda came back to life, kinda. Suddenly it'll boot into WM. Windows still doesn't recognize it, but I used JumpSPL to get it into a bootloader, and tried to install a HardSPL on it so I could flash a new ROM (to this point it's been stock-only because it belongs to the company I work for). The HardSPL flash failed partway through, and then it was stuck in bootloader for real. At that point I tried flashing a stock ROM, and it kept failing at different points, never getting more than about halfway through.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Or, do you want to buy it? At this point it's mine (company doesn't want it back), so I'm willing to experiment freely with it. Right up until my Touch Pro 2 comes in and I lose interest
*** UPDATE ***
So after writing this, just for kicks, I decided to give re-flashing the original ROM one more shot (it's been off and untouched now for several days at this point) and the flash succeeded. We'll see where it goes from here
Good luck with your phone.. I hope all goes well.. If you find out what the problem was/is, let me know
Hey godefroi, im new to all of this, just bought a messed up tilt from my friend, and i want to know if you could givve me the link for the insturctions to refalsh my tilt
Just hit up AT&T's site (which redirects you to HTC's site) and download the ROM. The file you want is "_ATT Tilt_RUU_Kaiser_CINGULAR_WWE_3.57.502.2_radio_sign_25.88.40.05_1.65.21.18_Ship.exe", which was the latest update for the phone.
Seems it's not fixed. After playing around with it for a couple days, it's back into bootloader and stuck there. Taking out the battery and leaving it for a few hours brings it back for a while, but it seems there's no permanant fix. Next step will be flashing HardSPL and a custom ROM. I'll update when that happens.
awww dang, that sucks. thank you for tellin me. hopin your tilt comes out ok
Did you ever get this resolved?
Hey man did you ever get this fixed? I cant find anything on it.
I can get to a boot loader screen and it shows USB and when I plug it into my computer I hear the sound that it's recognized but my active sync wont connect.
This is what I posted earlier and a moderator killed the post because I didn't spend hours hunting for a solution first before posting. I don't think one exists but if there is I would be glad to know it. I have flashed this phone and my older HTC Wizard dozens of times with no issues so Im not a "noob"
Earlier today I was taking a picture and the screen kind of stuck so I has to soft reboot it.
It didn't come back up. I was left at the rainbow bootloader screen.
I tried holding the camera button down and rebooting but it didn't change anything.
I tried several different combo's of holding keys down and rebooting and it always came back to that bootloader screen.
So the next thing I did was to format my cd card and downloaded KaisDiagTest1.zip and then coppied the KAISDIAG.NBH image file from the zip on to the root of the sd card.
That worked fine and I was left at a screen saying SPL 1.00.OliNex.
Next thing I did is were I think I screwed up. I flashed it with _ATT Tilt_RUU_Kaiser_CINGULAR_WWE_1.62.502.0_radio_sign _22.45.88.07_1.27.14.09R2_Ship.exe which is the ROM from the HTC site and I think I was only supose to use a custom ROM and now after it finished flashing the ROM it rebooted and is stuck showing loading ... on the screen.
It goes past the boot loader and is stuck at loading...
Please advise if there is anything I can do.
Cheers,
Chris

I never did. Every once in a while I can get it reflashed, but inevitably it stops working. Just like yours, I'll sfot reset it and it'll be stuck in bootloader.
Best bet is when it gets stuck on the bootloader or on the "white screen" as to put it. Do the following:
1) Unplug battery, memory car and simcard. Reinsert battery ONLY after 3 seconds (cards stay out!)
2) Hold BOTH softkeys down at the same time
3) Whilst holding softkeys, turn the unit on
4) You will be prompted to press "SEND" to reset all user data (you will lose everything on the internal storage. Press the Dial (green button) to reset.
5) When it's finished, you will be prompted to press "SEND" to reboot. Press send and it will boot into WM but might take slightly longer.
6) Realign your pointer and tada. It's up and running.
n.b. This often happens when the radio version of your phone isn't correct. If you notice, when you get stuck in the "white screen" the "gsm signal sight" is frashing green!
I've got to warn you again, this procedure WILL delete all of your internal user storage, hence why I recommend taking out all of the cards before proceeding.

Nope. Stuck in bootloader is stuck in bootloader. Like, stuck. No, really, it's stuck. Hard-resetting doesn't get it out.

There's no white screen, just bootloader rainbow. Also, there's no chance that I flashed the wrong radio, because this phone has never been flashed with anything but the official ROM. It's never even had a HardSPL flashed on it.
hmmm...now that you mention it has never had a hardSPL, maybe that could be the next step?
i understand that some people may want to keep a "stock" configuration in case waranty needs to be claimed or for any other valid reasons...but if the phone is out of waranty, theres little to lose.
only reason i'm suggesting it is because cmonex has a hardSPL that aims to fix EXACTLY this problem, among others (if i understand your problem and cmonex's fix correctly):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=420683
also, this thread links to a page in the wiki about your problem (or something along the same lines):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423486
finally, a collection of hardSPL versions can be found in this "roll up" thread:

i guess you may have already gone through the above mentioned links but if not, they may open up more avenues for troubleshooting or even a permanent resolution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a launch day Nexus One running CM5.0.5.3, the OC/UV kernel, and the EPE54B radio.
It has all been running great until today. I took it out of my pocket and it was warm (not hot) to the touch. I noticed the screen was blank but the buttons along the bottom were illuminated. I tried resetting it (power+volume down+trackball) and that didn't do anything, so I pulled the battery. When I rebooted it, it seemed to take a longer than usual time at the initial boot screen, and then went to the animated screen. It stayed on the animated screen for quite a while and then froze. It's stuck on the X mid-formation.
I then booted into the bootloader (which reacts like normal) and went into recovery. I re-flashed CM5.0.5.3, no effect. I wiped cache and system and re-flashed. Nothing. I did it again, and it finally booted up but I could only select things with the scrollball. The volume rocker worked fine, but the touchscreen is completely non responsive.
If I let it sit at the boot screen for a while it will go black eventually and time out.
I'm at a loss. I'm in the process of downloading a stock ROM and am going to flash it next. Anyone have any suggestions? My bootloader is (obviously) unlocked, so I'm worried about warranty work
Update: Just got it to boot (with the stock ROM) and I've got a warning screen saying:
Sorry!
Process system is not
responding.
[Force close] [Wait]
Any ideas?
Reflash CM 5.0.5.3 and then post back
Ok, re-downloading now.
Just flash in recovery?
Flashed in recovery (after wiping)
The phone stays on the stationary initial boot screen (four bars) for about a minute and a half and then goes to the animated cyan X. It stays there booting for probably two minutes before stopping mid-animation. If you let it sit there for a while the screen will time-out, which you can bring back with the power button. Sometimes when you hit the volume rocker you can hear the beep beep but nothing shows on the screen.
What the hell is wrong with my phone?
After an obscenely long time I got it to boot up.
Touchscreen is not responding, trackball is not responding, I have a question mark on the battery indicator, and no service.
I can't unlock the screen because of the non-functioning touchscreen. Live wallpaper is running great, it makes the sound when USB debugging is connected, it just won't react to any input.
I can, however, establish an ADB connection. It shows up on the device list and a remount succeeded.
Would reflashing the radio be of any benefit?
Dang the touch screen is unresponsive? I'm not an expert, but i'll try to give you some ideas.
I had some trouble once and I used settings-privacy then erased everything from within the OS. Then I reported to the screen just before going into recover and hit clear storage. Then went into recovery and wiped everything that I could. After that, flash the Rom that you want.
I've done a full wipe to no avail.
I'd bite the bullet and call htc, don't mention that you have rooted, it may be a hardware thing.
Scaaaary!! But hey, it happens. I would also try wiping for EXT on the SD card if you have been using apps2sd.....May not hurt, mights well try everything.....
Wiped everything, reflashed radio, flashed to stock. Nothing. This is exactly what I was worried about when I unlocked it.
Oh, well.

Yeah, I'll do that tomorrow. I guess I'll flash everything back to shipping and hope they don't notice.

Many people have posted that they got a replacement even with an unlocked bootloader. One guy I heard said they charged him $55.
Either way, you can probably get a replacement.
Has anyone ever ran into a situation where the UI locks up after a boot? I keep searching through threads and can't find anything. I'm not sure if it's something I have installed or if there is actually something wrong with the device. I had a nook previously and never encountered this problem but on the new one I just got (ebay refurb) the problem just keeps coming back.
Basically, it boots just fine and starts to show the Launcher but then the screen goes black and leaves the soft buttons at the bottom. The only way to recover is to shut it down and start it back up.
The funny thing is it doesn't do it all the time... sometimes it boots just fine and never locks up while in the OS... it's only on boot it does this.
I've tried multiple different versions of cm7 and am getting the same thing on all versions. I've tried different kernels and stock speeds and it still happens.
Any help or advice would be appreciated!
Hmmm... well after hours of troubleshooting I think I pinpointed it to beautiful widgets
