Bricked my Diamoind! help please - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Greetings,
I have had my diamond for a year and half now and it works perfectly although it was slow at some times. yesterday I tried to use a ROM made by the community. So first I tried to change to an unsigned HardSPL. I tried 3 different versions however each time I received an error. afterwards I tried to use a HardSPL made for CDMA phones (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35839) .
I ran the ram update utility I received the invalid model ID error.
Now my device does not start when I press the power button, and I cannot hard reset it .
Please help me to fix this problem

Vinma, YOUR PHONE IS DEAD !!!!!!!!
"first, if you have GSM diamond, this will brick your device. "
you should have read the instructions more careful !!!!!

I remember reading somewhere that there are a few methods to revive dead phones and that 90% of them can be brought back to life.
Please help me if you are aware of any of these methods.
I also have to add that I have contacted HTC regarding this issue and so far they have not been helpful. I would really appreciate it if anyone who has had a similar problem could help me.

Okay, press n hold Volume Down button and try to start the phone..
If you can't start the phone your phone is dead..
But you can save it with JTAG http://forum.revskills.de/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=117&p=639#p639
Or buy a new phone !!!!!!

ur mobile got knocked the f**k out

help appreciated!

Hi wondered if anyone could help me. Am new to pocket pcs, just got my hands on an xda2s, have started to get through the different threads and get my head around it. Decided that the first thing to do was to update the rom to the latest 02 rom. Went online, downloaded the update, plugged in the cradle to the computer etc. followed instructions like backing up info, soft reset etc. Clicked update and then an error occured where it could not update the radio rom. The computer message told me to unplug the cradle, perform a soft reset which i did and run the programme. Trying not to panic too much i followed each step and again the same thing has happened. In fact it looks like it has wiped my xda as it does nothing at all now except read serial v2.07. Anyone got any advice about what I can do? I've paid alot of money for a brick at the moment and after day 3 of owning it, I'm not doing too well! Please help if you can!!!!
have you tried the FAQ?
Have you checked the FAQ?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_GettingStarted
Have fun :wink:
I did read through the FAQ. The problem that I have seems to not be the rom that I used, I even tried to use a different rom just so that it would make my xda useale. Nothing seems to be working! anyone else got an idea?

this concludes the beta test...

Hello all,
first, a big thanks to all the rom developers around. You transformed my Diamond in a usable and enjoyable tool.
What happened to me tonight is very frightening. In fact, I cannot believe what happened.
And this is the story: I was at a birthday party and later in the evening I checked my phone : it seemed to have frozen, so I rebooted it as I do sometimes when I have no other choice. But this time something strange happened : I got the following message "this concludes the beta test of this software release. thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers" - what the ... ? No way to make a call, the message is impossible to remove... completely blocked !!!
I don't remember exactly the rom I flashed last because I sometimes change. It might be a dutty's release (75%M sure) - anyway I was in a very bad situation because my wife wasn't feeling well and I couldn't call her without finally borrowing a phone from someone.
I will flash a new rom tomorrow and I hope that the message will disappear but I can tell you that it is a very strange feeling when suddenly your phone refuses to operate normally. It's a nightmare.
I hope that someone has an explanation for this because I don't want to go trough this situation ever again, it's just so annoying to have a phone which tells you "No you can't use me; your trial period has expired" when you need it he most.
Thank you for your opinions in advance
Have you tried a hard reset?
Yep same problem here.
Using duttys 1.93 - Can't get to his website either.
Hard rest does not work - had to reflash back to branded (Telstra) ROM
i'm having the exact problem right now, what can i do to fix this? someone told me to reflash it but how? i'm VERY new to the diamond
hardreset does not work
I bought the phone from a person so it's second hand. The seller did mention he updated the ROM, I'm assuming this is the cause of the problem? help please
thanks!
I am getting the exact same problem.I do not know what to do.
Sigh and since my computer will not sync, I cannot reflash it. Hard set is also a no go.
ya I cant sync it with my computer either... i'm searching other sections on this forum and I cant seem to find one that teaches you how to flash without syncing with the computer
OK i got it well kinda sorta. If you hard reset and just use the date taht dutty had then your phone will load. Do not correct the date and you should also change the date on your computer so that it wont sync. Then donwload his new rom or whatever rom you prefer and then flash it. Then change the dates back. It worked for me.
thanks.. do you have the link for the new rom?
I'm going to give it a try
The link it dutt'y new rom is here http://rapidshare.com/files/162091111/Ruu_Signed_duttys_diamond__V2.9_5_2_20275_RTM_Full_MSVC.zip
just a question how do you flash it?
can you help me? i'm very new to this phone
I had the same problem last night- expired beta software. If I do a hard reset I believe I will loose all the info on the phone, is that correct?
I was thinking that changing the date will work, is there another way to change the date without having to loose the info?
Someone has a reliable link to an instruction on how to flash the ROM?
I am also using throy 2.3, to find the latest release please go to WWW.DUTTYTHROY.NET
Any help appreciated.
!everyone! you can flash roms from bootloader. hold volume down and the little red reset button, keep holding vol down untill bootloader. at the tri color screen, run ruu from host pc. everything will be fine with this method. just like activesync.
ok i to change the time and stuff and it actually can sync using active sync.. however.. when tried to install HSPL 1.24 after the part where the phone will turn black.. i click on the DiamondCustomRUU as instructed
but it says this "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). CLick on OK to terminate the application"
Is there a way I can recover this without losing all that is on my phone?
Do anybody know the password for the latest ROM 2.9 from Dutty? His page is unavailable right now....
Duttys V2.9 RTM Finale
someone please tell me how to flash.. from scratch? i hard reset my phone.. and i cant get HSPL to work. When i install the activesync way, the black screen turns on then i cant open DiamondCustomRUU
if i do i the bootloader way, when i connect from the three colour screen it cant pick up the phone because it says i'm missing Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM
please help been stuck for hours already
i won't flash Duttys ROM again!!! Right now i need my phone and it doesn't work! And if i reflash it i lose my data....
never again!
its you have a problem with duttys rom
you need to use his thread to point out your problems....
not this one.

T5355 stuck on "TOUCH Diamond2" screen

Hi guys!
I have been trying everything that I could find on XDA to fix my problem.
I got this HTC clone a few weeks ago, and it was working fine.
I decided to install a UI on it and it worked fine. After a while I got bored of the UI, so I decided to uninstall it. After the uninstall, the device indicated that it needed to be restarted. I did that, but after it rebooted, it started to reinstall Windows Mobile 6.1. I was annoyed by this, but was like, whatever, and let it continue.
Where the real problem started was when the device froze up (I left it alone for over an hour, but there was no change).
I then had to pull the battery. After I put the battery back into the T5355 it just keeps getting stuck on the "TOUCH Diamond2" screen.
I tried all the hard reset and soft reset tricks I could find and have no been able to either setting it back to factory or bootloader mode.
I was able to find a post that described how to place the boo.ini, flash.bin, and loader.bin file onto my micro sd card. I was able to to get the boot.ini an flash.bin files, but can't seem to find a loader.bin file (it that the actual OS rom?). I then found a post that showed how to use HiSilicon IDT to force the install of the OS Bin file (C02_HTC_20091102_R2127_英全视角B包.bin).
I followed the instructions on placing the T5355 into "Download" mode and pushing the OS bin fine to it.
I am able get the IDT software to detect the T5355 and start pushing the install, but the damned thing ends up giving an XLDR error.
PLEASE! PLEASE! Somebody help me! This phone is brand new and really want to get it working again.
Model: HTC(?) T5355
Please help me someone!!
Is there anyone out there that can help me???
I am so frustrated and can think of what else to do!
The biggest problem I have is that I can't use ActiveSync. If I could use that I wouldn't have much trouble.
Does anyone know how to use HiSilicon's IDT properly? The instructions I was working off of are in Russian. I think that a need a loader.bin file for the T5355 that I can put on my micro sd card...or maybe not...I don't know.
I just really want to get this device back to factory settings.
Please someone take pity on me!!!
enter bootloader [those orizontal strange colors]
try flashing a new rom. you may search and download the original 6.5 build from HTC
to enter bootloader, press "volume down + shutdown button" and then flash the rom
ATENTION: plug the USB cable, wait a few seconds, you should see USB on the lowest white color, then do the flashing job
I don't think you would be experiencing these problems with an original topaz
Please take care this is a HTC CLONE

DalvuS, thanks for the reply, but the issue is that I can't seem to get into bootloader mode . I wish I could. The T5355 seems to be stuck in the middle of wm 6.1 install. I need to somehow wipe the install and be able to push a reinstall back to the device.

Exca that comment doesn't help me. It just makes me more sad. I was gipped when I bought the phone . I thought I paid for a "real" Diamond 2.
If you can't to catch the bootmode, looks like hardware problem.
You can't to repair it at home, imho. Try the specialized service.
..............
... and: are you sure about key combination for bootloader screen for CLONE?
Hello people, how can i dump my rom from my phone (mfu w71) for backup, because i cannot find any rom in english only in chinese. I started to dump the chinese rom with some chinese kitchen (K3系列ROM工具), but i'm stuck. I do not know to do anymore i have extracted ROM, SYS folder. I think it would be good to start another section on this forum for the chinese phones.
Some help from experienced cookers would me be much apreciated.
My T5355 is up and working!!!
Thanks to everyone who replied to my post!!!
I discovered that the problem was that the PC I was attempting the install from was running an AMD based processor.
I tried on the family laptop (which runs an Intel processor) and the install worked!
I AM SOOOO HAPPY!!!
b0gdi good luck with your issue. Try doing a search here in XDA for "dump my phone".
nothing[switched off] -> press start -> command -> bootloader -> bootloader commands -> system start -> play
checking one by one by interfering would have done the trick
I'm glad to hear that... so now you're ok
NEXT !
help me please

[Q] Problem with my HTC P-4350

Hello. I'm new in here. half hour ago I got registered. so i have a problem with my HTC. For about 1-2 weeks now the device was restarting. 2 days ago the device never opened again. yesterday I tried the hard reset sequence and the device open to the message that i will lose everything and if i agree to press send but when i press it i get a green screen and nothing more. what can i do? what might be the problem? I uploaded also a video (but I can't post it cause I am a new user so ask me to send it as a pm) and a photo of the green screen.
thank you very much.
By all means, if you don't mind losing data that you had on the ROM memory, then hardreset.
Hard resetting I think is the best possible solution for you.
So press that green phone button when it tells you to ^>^
I already did a hard reset. that's why i have that green screen. I did a hard reset about 4-5 times now. thanks for your answer.
Ah, I see.
Try this:
Soft reset your phone while holding the camera button.
Does this get you to a screen where it's Red/Blue/Green/White Screen?
If it does, try plugging in a USB cord. If you get this far and see the word 'USB' in the lower left hand corner, then I think we can continue on.
I did it and it shows usb. what next?
Awesome, I'm glad.
Next, Download and run the .exe:
http://rapidshare.com/#!download|16..._4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe|56629
After this, all should be well.
Now if you want to flash custom ROMs like the ones that I make, just follow the directions on any one of my ROM threads from Top to Bottom ^>^
before i continue. after the installation i will have the OS back? I will have to install it again? i had WM6. thank you very very much for all the help.
error 300: INVALID UPDATE TOOL.
THIS UPDATE UTILLITY CANNOT BE USED FOR YOUR PDA PHONE. PLEASE GET NEWER UPDATE UTILITY.
that's the message i got.
Hmm, okay, try searching mediafire for the user aizend1985 and look for an .exe entiled Wing something or another.. I'm out right now, so cant get the link for you.
Download and run.
i can't find the user. i'll try again. when you have the time please send me. again thankl you very much. have a great time.
Here you go mate, try this:
http://download1152.mediafire.com/he785npun6pg/yj1oz2m3mzm/TMo_Wing_RUU_Update_4.26.531.4.exe
If this doesn't work I'll try to do some research for you and see what we can do.
Error 244: Invalid model id.
Okay. The last thing you can do is to try the dutch vodaphone herald version:
http://rapidshare.com/#!download|18..._4.21.172.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.rar|52629
Download and run the .exe from the Red/Blue/Green/White screen.
If this loads onto your device, then what we do is we HardSPL next.
*crosses my fingers for ya*
If this doesn't work, then have HTC try to repair it. Because I don't think there is anything else to do for it :1
:'( Error 244: Invalid model id.
thank you very much for everything. at least I know that it can be fixed.
you reflashed your phone in some custom roms?
but it didnt work still and you tried the hard spl too.... can you tell me the history of your phone before it went like that, i am a technician and might help you on your problem.... what was the last thing you did on your phone? i will wait for your reply if it's ok....
dear [email protected]
I have the HTC P-4350 for the last 5 years. the last 1-2 weeks the phone started to freeze and the screen went white slowly and then restart. after the 2 weeks the phone closed and didn't open again but the hard reset is working until the part that said format done (or something like that) and then i get a green screen (see the photo I have attached here). after that i made this post and the friend Tribulattifather (member of the site here) helped me with some info and gave me some files to try and install but the first file gave me this message
"error 300: INVALID UPDATE TOOL.
THIS UPDATE UTILLITY CANNOT BE USED FOR YOUR PDA PHONE. PLEASE GET NEWER UPDATE UTILITY."
and the other gave me
"Error 244: Invalid model id.".
there isn't something else. any idea?
thank you.
what is your spl number and ipl....
did you do the HARDSPL on your phone????
do the hardspl first and then flash your phone using a micro sd....
tell me if you already did that.... i will wait for your reply....
i also want to know if you dropped it or something before it went like that.... plz tell me the whole history of your phone....
to my perspective, the phone's problem can be resolve in flashing....
tell me if you hardspl it,,,, because you cant flash it on some ROMS if it's not HARDSPLed...
hi [email protected] i had a problem with my internet that's way I answer now after all that time. I droped it a couple of times by accident but that is a long time ago. the IPL is 4.17.0001 ans SPL 4.17.0000. i never did anything like hardspl. i changed the flex cable 5 months ago. when i first got the phone 5 years ago it had WM5 and after 5 months when i bought it I got WM6 at service. i never got the phone to service cause never anything happen. i can't remember anything else know.
I have an update for my device. now it doesn't open with anything. i mean i can open it to hard reset or to see the spl. it doesn't respont to anything.
May be time to put the phone to rest, mate u.u
I'll play the taps..

If you're telling people that you can fix their phones, then you need to be able to fix it without having to come to a forum for help. Especially if you're charging for this service.
