Remove branding - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I've got the D2 from my provider (O2 Germany), it has a blue colour scheme and a different ordering of some menu items.
Has anybody tried to remove the (software) branding from the phone? I like the look of the original HTC design.
Thanks in advance,
Caroline

You will have to wait until they have made the Hard SPL, you will then be able to load custom ROMs which will do away with branding.

Yes, this video shows a the T-Mobile version with the branding removed.

Sorry for this newbie question:
What exactly can i get with a custom ROM? Can I replace the whole OS, or is this just for installing different components (e.g. other themes)?
Is there something like a original HTC ROM?
What if I update to Windows Mobile 6.5 with a custom ROM? Can I then use the HTC update or do I have to wait for the new version of my provider?
Thanks in advance,
Caro

Hi Caro,
habe gerade eben mein MDA compact V (T-Mobile branding) bekommen : )
Hast du schon was gefunden um es zu säubern? Mag das Style so überhaupt nicht.

Hi there. Got my MDA Compact V today and have to say: the TF3D looks different to the clip. Guess in the video there was a pre-release-version,
similar to the normal HTC-version.
An uns deutsche^^ :
Ich finde aber, dass diese jetzigen TF3D Farben deutlich besser sind, als
bei dem MDA Compact IV (Diamond).
Da war ja alles weiß & Margenta-rot *würg*
PS.: Great device! (Hope I don't regret the change from Diamond to this one^^)

Install it like any *.nbh - Copy the .nbh instead of a normal ROM .nbh and Flash the File to your Diamond...
At Example load bepes ROM, change the *.nbh File and flash it. But before make a backup !
auf Deutsch - Lade z.B. Bepes Rom runter und entüacke es, dann ersetzt du die dortige *.nbh Datei mit der von hier und führst den normalen Flash einfach aus. Ist genauso als würdest Du ein Rom flashen, nur ohne Hardreset... Zur Sicherheit aber IMMER Daten sichern bevor Du was flasht
It look like this :
THX.......
thanks

So long as you have flashed one of the many Hard SPL's to your device then yes you can.
On a seperate note, thanks for this, hate the o2 branded boot screen so this is much better!
Bluefade - Please let me know once you are done...i'm on Airtel too!!
Can someone post the original MDA Compact IV T-Mobile splash screen. That Would be great. Thank you so much!

Hope this helps,

I do not think this is going to help you. The update you are thinking of does not even work if you have a real serial number (at least mine did not) Non-the Less the update is gone. It was supposed that the update was actually a copy of the one from February.
@ms0529 -- don't suppose you have a working LCD to sell and in the UK?

Radio Update for Wizard

Hallo zusammen habe gestern endlich mal meinen Schatten übersprungen und bin nun stolzer besitzer eines wizards mit wm 6.5 von skynet
Jetzt habe ich überall gelesen von diesen Radio Updates,was ist das denn genau ,wofür brauche ich das ,wo bekomme ich es her und wie kommt das auf meinen Wizard ???
Ich danke euch vielmals
bitte das update nur in deutsch
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
English Version :
Hello together yesterday finally skipped my shadow, and am now the proud owner of a wizard with wm 6.5 from skynet
Now I have always read about these radio updates, what is that exactly what I need it, where can I get it and how it comes to my Wizard??
SINCE my English is terrible, I have the text translated by google once
I thank you very much
pls the radio update onliy in german
When flashing the radio, the language doesn’t matter.
I would suggest that if your signal is good leave it alone and don’t flash a new radio.
You can find a few radios here.
but now the ppc yesterday flashed with wm6.5, can I do now in retrospect a radio update, and if so how is it then? the receiving at home I have 2 to 3 beams
I can not help it? it is worthwhile to make the update and what I have to take that?
You can update the radio anytime.
I would only recommend it if you have poor signal strength.
You can use the same flash utility that you used to flash WM6.5 to your phone.
Just remove the WM6.5 *.nbf from the folder and put the radio *.nbf in the folder then run the update utility.
Ok, and what the radio updates, I must take on the one side and where I got more than the RUU her program?
because no one can help me and the right to post links where I can download the program and use the radio version should I?
where can i find this program RUU and which Radio update i use??
Sorry I don’t know what you’re asking for.
The link I posted above has some of the radios and most of them have the RUU flash utility as well.
If you’re looking for more radios you’ll have to use the search those are the only links I know.
this is me yeah, I just wanted to know which of these updates I should take the best
The radio I use is version 2.25, it works best for me.
ok thx. before I do I will update the radio card and the card from the mobile device take? because it is nothing in the manual.

[Q] I can't flashing HardSPL v2.51 on my Diamond2 (Topaz100), Why?

Hi everyone,
I buy a HTC Diamond 2 for fave some fun, but the Start let me down. Never had problem to flashing any of my devices like HTC P3600, HTC Touch HD. Now i got a problem, when i try to flash the HardSPL it still on 0% and after 10 minuts it fail. I want flash some custom roms but I can't without before flash a HardSPL. I know, this question somebody ask before (meyby) but I still don't find the answare. I try on 2 different PC, 1 with Xp and 2 with Win7, I try from MicroSD like describe on the thread of the HardSPLs, he still in loading and nothing. I buy the Topaz Used but is like new and it come with Original Win 6.1 and I dont know what they did or not, the only thing I know is that, in bootloader the SPL is 133.0000. I downloaded the latest HardSPL 2.51 and 183Olinex. Still don't work.
Some help? please..
try first v1.83
Make sure you have internet connection to PC and your device is synched to PC, as HSPL used internet.
This is where most of the time it fails for many users... see similar questions @ General and Q&A forums. Also refer the HSPL thread for more info.
Cheers!!!
Thanks Guys, I try so many time and it start working!! Great, now I can cooking my Topaz or make a brick! . I realy don't now how it's started but is good like that.
Thank at all.

hi! how u do that?
i have one with same problem and tried many times and still unflashed
Hi,
I was not able to flash my TOPA100 too, in order to HSPL it I have bough the HSPL from the official Olinex website : http://htc-unlocks.com/
Then it unlocked without any problem, still working after two years
Hello!
I have bought an O2 XDA Diamond 2 and it works no HSPL.
I've tried already Topaz-HardSPL_V3_01R2 and Topaz-HardSPL_V5_09R6_CRT_183HSPL.
I have installed also enablerapinew.cab on the device.
I tried it on a Windows 7 and windows XP PC , but nothing works.
The installation bar remains at 0%.
Anyone has another idea.
Please please please.
There are so many beautiful ROM ´s
German:
Juhu Jippie Hammer!!!!!! Ich hab es geschafft!!!
Ich hab es geschafft.
Hier die Anleitung mit der es bei mir geklappt hat:
1. Hier die CAB runterladen und auf dem Internen Gerätespeicher installieren : http://hpcmonex.net/roms/enablerapinew.cab
2. Neustart
3. Hier die HSPL Version runterladen die ihr braucht. Bei mir war es z.B. die "Topaz-HardSPL_V5_09R6_CRT_183HSPL.zip" : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312
4. Das Diamond 2 mit dem PC verbinden (wenn ihr es noch nicht getan habt)
5. Dann die .exe Datei aus der runtergeladenen .zip Datei öffnen. Bei mir musste ich die Firewall und den Antivirus deaktivieren, weil sonst immer eine Trojanerwarnung kommt. Ist aber normal.
6. Im Programmfenster den Button "Flash Hard-SPL (Automatic Flash)" drücken.
7. Das Programm durchlaufen lassen und fertig ist euer XDA Diamond 2
Hab dann als erstet das aktuellste original HTC ROM geflasht, aber das gefiel mir nicht so, da ich gerne WM 6.5.3 haben wollte.
Jetzt habe ich da energy ROM von den dev´s installiert. Siehe hier: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=562942
Das läuft bis jetzt echt super und sieht richtig gut aus.
Viel Glück an alle anderen die bis jetzt kein HSPL machen konnten.
English:
Juhu Jippie Yes! It works!
I have managed it.
Here the guide how it goes:
1. Here the CAB to download and install on the internal device memory: http://hpcmonex.net/roms/enablerapinew.cab
2. Restart
3. HSPL download the version that you need. For me it was for example the "Topaz HardSPL_V5_09R6_CRT_183HSPL.zip": http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312
4. and link diamond 2 with the PC (if you have not have done it)
5. open the .exe file from the downloaded .zip file. For me, I must disable the firewall and the antivirus because otherwise always a Trojan warning. but it is normal.
6. press in the program window the button "Flash hard-SPL (automatic Flash)" .
7. Follow the the introductions on the screen and your XDA diamond 2 is ready
I have first installed the latest original HTC ROM, but i did not liked it, because I wanted to have WM 6.5.3.
Now, I have installed the energy ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=562942
It works very stabil and looks really good.
Good luck to everyone else that could not flash HSPL.

No Guys, I will not do that. There is no way to flash and disable antivirus or firewall. I was able to flash normally. XDA is not Troian..
same problem with HSPL
