Dear Community
My display is broken in a way, that I can see everything, but cannot react with the device using the touch screen. Only the physical buttons work. Therefore I want to use my warranty. The only problem is that I flashed an olinex spl. I have a stock spl and everything works well, right to the point where I have to confirm to install the software (bootloader.exe) to flash. I have some other software to operate the diamond from the PC but there I have to confirm to when I install it, which doesn't help at all.
Does anyone know a way to use key combinations or a way around it.
Thank you very much.

I recently upgraded to the official 1.93 WWE ROM (and new hard SPL), and now my screen flickers a lot when the phone is switched on. (The flickering starts at boot-up when the red writing appears at the bottom-right of the screen).
I have been able to solve it so far by pressing the power button twice to switch the display off and back on again, but wondered if anyone else had experienced this and could suggest a more permanent fix?
Thanks,
Neil
Most likely who hasnt experienced this.....lol
Anyway, when you get this after a reset, just turn on and off the display and all goes back to normal.
You need to flash another hard spl. The issue is caused by an outdated spl not being compatible to your lcd screen. Try hard spl 1.37 found here:

I want to flash
_QMR_RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_1.93.405.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship
to my UK Vodafone Diamond which has SPL 1.37 from the factory.
Which Hard SPL should I use - 1.37? Signed or unsigned?

Thanks! I tried searching for "flicker", but got too many results and didn't find that thread.
i have the flickering screen too, i want to try this method but my activesync does not work. i try a hard-reset and now the device ask me to insert Getting STarted Disc to install synchronization software which I did. it still doesn't work. anyway to do this?
Thanks

I want to try flash HardSPL but my USB port doesn't work, is there anyway to do this?
Hi
I have a UK orange Diamond which has been unlocked using the legendary Oli unlock method....
Can I put the UK orange HTC ROM upgrade directly on this and will the handset still remain Sim unlocked?
I am on T-Mobile UK and want to make sure I can continue using this without a brick!
also is there a good method of backing it up?
are there any alternative ROM updates which anyone would recommend in this situation?
Thanks all
If your Device has Hard-SPL installed on it, you should be able to flash any ROM without any problems.
If your device has been SIM-Unlocked, do whatever you like it will remain SIM-Unlocked. Even if you flash a new ROM or even Radio ROM it will stay SIM Unlocked.
To backup messages, contacts, etc I recommend you use PIM backup.
But anything on the 4GB storage doesn't get wiped off anyway.
And about bricking your device...apparently Hard-SPL is meant to be a lot safer than the Stock-SPL because if you screw up your Flash you can just go back to the Hard-SPL and flash a new ROM, overwriting the corrupted one.
Thanks for that,
Silly Q but how do I know if Hard SPL is installed? I know the unlock method required installing something...
Im scared of doing this as I have bricked in the past my HTC Kaiser! lol... dont want to make this mistake again!!
Lol don't worry about it, I even freak out when installing official updates.
Flashing ROMs still scare me and I have been using and flashing PDAs since 2005!
To make sure HardSPL is installed, Go into Bootloader mode on your HTC Diamond.
I think its the Soft Reset Button + Volume down button.
Hold the Volume down button and quickly press and let go of the Soft reset button, whilst holding the volume down button until the bootloader menu comes up.
If you have HardSPL installed, you should see something along the lines of 'Olinex'.
As far as I know, if you used Olipro's unlocker then you must have installed HardSPL in the processess anyway, but best to be sure!
Thanks for the info, It does say OliNex on it so im flashing now....
still on 0% .......
only been 3 mins tho, so patiently waiting...
How did the flashing go?
got there in the end mate
had to put the HARD-SPL developers version as the official orange rom would not go past 0%..
was scary but its working a treat now!
thanks a lot for your help
Glad you got there in the end
Enjoy your HTC Diamond
After I get new rom and a unsigned Hard SPL my G-sensor just show the programs in vertical position... in Teeter, the ball just stay at the up side of display... Why???
What ROM did you flash to?
From the first momment I tried the Energy rom, after, dutch, ahen, macadam, and others... but in all of them my display shows some programs in up-side-down position... where I mistake?
I have the same problem
I have tried different ROMs but i am still not able to use teeter
Helllpppppp... If some one knows...
i have the same problem after i crashed my diamond...may be you guys crashed it and didnt notice that you just broke the g-sensor hardware....
Are you sure about this ??
I dont think we can break the g-sensor hardware so easily without even having a scratch on diamond. :|
I don´t think its possible... ´cause I just change rom... in the same moment it wasn´t function...
Maybe it change to the original Hard SPL 1.93 get back to the normal form... but I don´t know how can I make it turn back to 1.93... ´cause the file isn´t executable...
I have HardSpl 1.93 and it doesnt function for me
is there a newer HardSpl that i can try maybe ??
Guys can any1 of you help us out here ??

anyway,what it is the connection between gsensor and hardspl???
I don´t know what´s connection... but my friend had the same problem and he get his diamond to support and there the support just put another rom (Official) with a 1.93 hard spl and the g sensor turn on perfectly without hardware damage...
So...
the same problem in more then 3 diamonds (If I correct)... it isn´t a hardware damage...
@ Foxlou : any updates from your side ?
I have been trying very hard to make this work but it just doesnt work . I am thinking of going to a service center and giving them the device..

let us know it its a hardware issue
Guys try to flash with a stock ROM (2.03). If it doesn't work, try another SPL like Olinex 1.40.
If you want to know what kind of problem is it (hardware or software) just flash with stock rom and stock spl.
very easy to identify whether is ur g-sensor hardware spoil or not function
go www.htc.com flash ur latest diamond ROM .. check whether the g-sensor working anot .
For me i still would recommend use offical ROM
I flashed with the Stock rom but the problem is that i am not able to put the stock SPL.. i have HSPL 1.40.
Whenever i flash with stock SPL it will show as 100% but still i wont get the Stock SPL. Btw guys any links for stock spl 2.03

I am asking for advice!
I have searched the forum, but havent found any solution yet. Volume Buttons of my Xperia stopped working (as well as some keyboard buttons, for example I cannot typ "t", "i".. and several others.. !!). So I need to get back stock rom for warranty reasons, but I cant, cause I am not able to get into the RAINBOW SCREEN..
Is there any other possible way how to get the rainbow screen or how to flash stock rom without that...
What about the PC program that shows you mobile screen on your PC..? Can this program run the rainbow screen?
Thanks for any help!!

This is quite bad bro... Don't think you can do anything about it with PC software. There is a flashing method using an image on MicroSD card but I think it also requires you to do the Volume-down-press. Have you tried Hardreset through Windows Mobile? (Settings -> Clear Storage) I don't think this will help, though... But why not try it.
Flash it using usb connection with you PC
Your phone will automaticaly go to the three colors screen during the process
2firegall!!: i did hard reset, but it did not help :-/
2mopral: ok, thanks, I flash the stock rom through PC. but could you tell me how to that? I flashed through PC for example Touch-ITs' roms - but they are provided with certain program to be run directly on PC (RUU something.exe...). but what shell i do with stock rom, that is xxx.nbh or xxx.image :-D?? sorry i am not that experianced!
once again, THANKSSSS!
Sorry, I should have done a better search ! Now I have found the Rom Update Utility - hope that this flashes the stock rom into my Xperia through PC...
Did the rom update help? I have the same probleme.
NO! :-/ It did not help, I am going to SE Service today, hope they fix it soon, cause I can write messages without hardware keyboard (I am lazy to use on-screen keyboard with stylus).. The volume buttons still dont work, and I am sure, these issues are covered by guarantee ..
Hi, I have a truly big problem with my Xperia X1. It is on guarranty so I can't disassembly it. My LCD screen failed. Underlight works, touch works, but the screen stays black. I think that something has disconnected inside of it.
I can control - run GPS, Music, call for somebody from memory of my brain - using touch and keyboard. Everything works fine, but the display has no image.
My problem is... before this accident I changed the SPL for SoftSPL (from this forum) and used some non-original ROM's. After 4 or 6 ROM's I changed it for the newest original firmware, but... the SoftSpl stays.
I think that before get the phone to the service I should invert the SPL for HardSPL back, right? Soo... is it hard, need I to make something on the phone?
Please for help.
it's the other way around: you should have hard spl on your phone now, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to flash custom roms
you have to restore stock-spl, find the file and instructions in olinex thread in the stickies
additional tutorials are in biovolts thread

It would be easier, when my phone woulde be synchronized with any of my PC's. I remember that I had problems with the window of choice (mass storage, win sync etc), which should show after plug USB cable. It never shown and I had to go to the settings on the phone and then select the option.
Now I can't see my movements... what can I do?
try going to bootloader mode (tri color screen) and do a hard spl the flash..
