It dose not manual.

download the rom here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394985
then go into bootloader [looking for how to now] bootloader is tri-colour screen
and run the exe from that download
you should be ok after that
to get to bootloader, try holding volume slider down and then soft-reset, or try up and soft-reset
the bootloader is usually side-of-device button combinations.
if those dont work, try the ront buttons and the reset button

Did it come with a CD? I think there was a copy of the manual for my Touch on the CD that came with it.

You should use that as a motto.

go to bootloader is:
hold down button and press (red) reset button

Bingo! This is the same as what the manual said. YJ

I found that the manual is wrong. The way to perform a hard reset of the Touch Diamond2 is:
1. With the Touch Diamond2 switched off, press the volume up and down buttons simultaneously.
2. Keeping them pressed, use the stylus to briefly press the red soft reset button (you’ll have to remove the back of the Diamond2 to do this).
3. Release the volume buttons when a message flashes up to say, “This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. Press VolUp to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel.”
4. Press the volume up button.

[SOLVED] I can't enter bootloader? (How-to?)

Hi!
I know I am supposed to press volume down and dow a soft-reset but this only boots my phone as normal soft reset. I do not see the tri-band boot screen that people are talking about. I have a Swedish phone ...

No offence mate. Everyone is more than happy to help, but it wouldn't hurt running a simple search first.
All the best.

I know its in order to insult people how do not search , but I was asking for the boot loader - not about Hard Reset

oops..
sorry.. haven't had my coffee yet

go to bootloader is:
Try this
hold down button and press (red) reset button
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395795&highlight=bootloader
(again got this from search too.. )

I have tried all of the buttons and no one lets me do a bootloader

Press Volume Down and KEEP it pressed until you get the bootloader screen. So...do not release the volume down after you've pressed the reset buton

That finally did it
thanks!

Vol Down+Power Buttons are not working when trying to flash!!!

Hi,
I've searched alot for this kinda problem but it seems I AM the only one who has this problem.
I had succesfully installed R2AA0010 UK ROM 4 months ago using Micro SD Method, but now when i'm trying to upgrade it to R3A version the Volume Down+Power Button is not working and I can make it to tri color screen. (Just nothing happens)
I've tried SSPL Manual as well but it stops on screen "Loading..." and nothing is happening!
Please help!!!

how to hard reset then?
EDIT: I've found how to hard reset but when i'm pressing the silver buttons they're also doing nothing. (The WM will come up normally)
I think i'm gonna lose it

You can just load the bootloader from the windows directory...
I think it is called botloader.exe
there is only 1 o... try to open that .exe bootloader should show up and you are ready to flash.

Use clear storage to hard reset....and if you are doing sd card method maybe you forgot to rename your file into kovsimg.nbh or whatever it's suppose to be

Thanks for reply!
Yes, I can go to tricolor screen through windows but as i said it will stop at "Loading..." screen. I've read the instructions and I renamed it to kovsimg.nbh as well.
I cannot hard reset using the silver buttons but I did it with clear storage icon! but nothing changed!!!!
I think my topic is correct, I didn't mean that my vol down and power buttons are corrupted or damaged, I mean It's not working when i'm trying to flash!
Any Idea?

Yes, that's what I exactly did! But the normal windows will come up!

HR through settings
another way to hard reset it to go
start > settings > system tab > clear storage
then press 1234 and press yes

maybe your spl is a bit damaged cause you can't hard reset and you can't flash sspl
try flashing hspl again

to hard reset
switch off
press both silver buttons
just press power button briefly, dont hold power button.
keep pressing both silver buttons till reset screen
hope this helps.

Holy crap you guys I do not know why I triple posted...

Next time you can call this screen the bootloader screen... don't call it volume down and power button because it is very misleading...

U need to copy Rom which U want to upgrade to SD card. If u want cooked room so flash Hard-SPL, and then it will automatically install rom U want. or if stock Rom so flash Hard-SPL back to stocks.

Don't worry, your device is not damaged. Follow the guide here to fix your problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=685025
Note that you'll lose all data on your device when performing this fix. Hope you have a backup at hand!
Essential thing to be known:-
1. Bootloader mode Knowing how to enter into Bootloader mode is one of the most essential thing to be known for a opal user (windows mobile users).
How to enter?
There are two way to enter into bootloader mode.
1. If you device is on, open your device's back cover. Press the soft reset button ( red button ) using stylus. As soon as you press it, immediately press the volume down button and keep holding it until you see a tri-color screen on your device's screen.
2. If your device is off, press the power button as soon as the device vibrates immediately press volume down button and keep holding it until you see a tri-color screen on your device's screen.
Uses?
If you flashed a damaged rom, you would be no longer able to use your device. In that case enter into bootloader mode. And flash a different rom.

[SOLVED]Help! Cant do Hard Reset(Format)

Just before few minutes i have successfully upgraded my BS. I choose HSPL now my BL is 1.56 Olinex then flashed an blackSTONEhenge™ (WM6.5.3.28238/Manila 2.1) v6.0 rom all the process finished like a charm, now i can't able to Hard reset(Format)
I tried many times by pressing vol up + vol down then then power button at the same time but i cant see any prompt to format, it directly boots up into the os and i checked my volume keys also inside the os both works perfect.
As i used blackSTONEhenge™ there is also no clear storage option under START-SETTINGS-SYSTEM what do i do now?

Curious....why do you want to hard reset?
If you press vol up & vol down and continue to hold these and press power on button once you should be presented with a white screen and blue text. Press vol up again to restore manufacturer default, i.e. hard reset
Alternatively try asking within rom thread for where "clear storage" is located. I personally haven't used this rom so cannot comment, but it should be located somewhere on device

Hold Vol Up + Down and press the power button once (do not continue holding the power button). Continue holding vol up + down and it should get u where u want to go. Worked for me.

It was mentioned to format once or twice in the rom thread,
Thanks for your idea it solved my problem i can able to format now, i was such a noob trying holding even the power button instead of pressing it (very shortly) Once, it was not mentioned in any of the thread i googled.
Yes i searched but no 'clear storage' option in this rom must be fixed in feature.

Glad you got this sorted.
