So, in an earlier post I had asked about downgrading to WM5 from AT&T WM6because my bossman lost all his beloved Windows Live capabilities.
I grabbed a Congular WM5 ROM, from a link here, did the image load from SD.
It said to me Update Complete, Update Successful, but would not boot to the OS. It would simply hang at the PALM splash screen with the grey indicator bar running 99% of the way at the bottom, then hanging.
This did not please me.
So I then started messing around with the available WM6 ROMs, like the AT&T SD install, and the ROW updater renamed from CHEEIMG_FW to just CHEEIMG to load from SD, all to no avail. Again it is just hanging at the PALM splash screen with the OS load bar hanging at about 99% completion.
I let it sit for about an hour, and it just hangs...
I am guessing it is not bricked, due to the fact that I can still get to the bootloader screen and load an image successfully... however it goes no further than that.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. And I would be willing to name my first born after the person who can tell me how to resolve this.
look for a new job...
On Palm's support page they have a recovery tool - see http://www.palm.com/au/support/treo750/downloads/wm6update.html .
Maybe this will help you keep your job!
I upgraded using the Telstra version and had no issues except for not being able to run iGO My Way 2006.
Cheers
renamed from CHEEIMG_FW to just CHEEIMG to load from SD
Just to verify, You should rename to "CHEEIMG.nbh" then load........

Make sure your file explorer shows file extensions to do so...
Also, there is an install for Live on WM6 available for download. I had posted the file in another thread - you can find it by searching. Also, if you search the entire site, there is at least one lengthy thread devoted to the various releases of Windows Live for Mobile. This should have been the last reason for your boss to want to downgrade to the earlier WM5 version.
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 !

When I go to boot android from my SD card it won't load. I run Haret.exe and then the linux boot screen comes up, but then i get this message at the bottom:
Kernel panic - not syncing attempted to kill init!
2.165865 Rebooting in 3 seconds.
After this last line it stays frozen forever. I am using Myn's latest Warm Donut, and yes I have all the files on my SD cards root, and it is formatted to FAT. I haven't taken anything out of the files that I downloaded. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for all the great work
Same thing happened to me
I used to do this kind of stuff on my Kaiser. I don't know what is wrong. But, I get the exact same problem.
HELP same is happening to me.
I get the same message on my sprint Touch.
Kernel panic - not syncing attempted to kill init!
2.165865 Rebooting in 3 seconds.
does anyone know the solution to this. I tried Myn with same freeze. Android 1.5 worked but then it shuts down after 5 min.
All other builds give me the same message and then FREEZE.
Thanks for your help.
2.165850 Rebooting in 3 seconds
Please help!
I am seeing many others with this same issue when booting from SD when I searched for "attempted to kill init!" under Vogue CDMA.
Kernel panic - not syncing g: attempted to kill init!
2.165850 Rebooting in 3 seconds
After that it just stays frozen. Any help would be great appreciated.
I had this exact same problem yesterday and I finally solved it after messing with the phone all morning.
I am using the verizon version of the phone btw and I am kind of a newb to this whole process.
The boot problem ceased after I installed windows mobile 6.1. I can't post the link because I am new to this forum, but it was a verizon package of windows 6.1 that included a radio update. I think the reason it fixed the boot problem was because it updated the radio.
Please note that by doing this I had to call verizon and re-activate my phone on their network (while having windows mobile 6.1 installed on the phone.)
After installing windows mobile 6.1 on the phone (with included radio update), I was able to flash to Android with no problems and no longer got the freeze up at "rebooting in 3 seconds.."
Hope this helps!

I got it to work after updating my ROM to WM6.1 with new Radio from HTC web at: htc.com/us/support/touch-sprint/downloads#133
Thanks again for your reply. I am now running : Myn’s Warm Donut - [RLS 5 - 04/24/2010] -Added X10 & Teds Espresso Themes 04/26
Use the sprint one, it unlock gps as well.
ANDROID THE EASY WAY
NOW AVAILABLE!
This Process will NOT be quick, but it’s easy and runs great!
Takes about 1/2 hr to set up the first time. It's an All-In-One Flash - Includes Stripped WM, Android, and Compatible Radio.
Includes an AWESOME Android build, Desire Sense - BlueTopia v0.6, by cmylxgo.
FAST, STABLE, COOL as Heck! It is installed on top of my Super Ultra Lite ROM.
Booting into Android is controlled by My Android MortScript.
ROM is based on latest T-Mobile 3.14 with almost everything removed. Not really worth booting into this ROM as it's just used to load Haret to get Android going.
If you want to Flash this ROM then change the Android build to another, you may by replacing the Android Folders on your SD Card with your desired Build.
Please read all below before starting.
Download all files listed:
AutoFlash SuperSport Android BlueTopia 6.exe Grab All 4 Parts (MediaFire Link) Sorry so LARGE!! Only way to include everything. MediaFire allows Multiple downloads at a time. If you have a fast Connection, grab all 4 pieces at once.
Task29 provided by doloop.zip (Attached) If needed
HardSPL3 (Attached) If needed
Unzip Task 29 and HardSPL3.
Clean old Android and any Android helper folders OFF SD Card ie: Android, Media, FilesToBeDeleted, etc. For best results, backup your card, then re-format FAT32.
Be sure your SD Card is re-installed in your HD2.
Flash HardSPL3: Run HSPL3_PKG.exe, or be sure you’ve already done it in the past. Follow the instructions found HERE if you don’t know how. This will take about 3 mins.
Task29: Run Task29 provided by doloop.exe. This should be done before ANY Flash. If running Windows Vista or 7, you must Right Click and Run as Administrator. Be sure your phone is connected by USB before running and follow the instructions. It’s just like flashing a ROM. When it reaches 95%, press and HOLD the Volume Down button until it reboots into Bootloader Mode (Red, Green, Blue Screen). This will take about 2 mins.
Flash My ROM: Be sure your SD Card is installed in your HD2, then Flash your phone with my ROM. Be sure your phone is connected by USB then enter Bootloader Mode (Red, Green, Blue Screen) by Holding Down the Volume Down button while turning on phone. Run the file "AutoFlash_SuperSport_Android_BlueTopia_6.part1.exe". Follow the Instructions until your phone Reboots. This will take about 7 mins.
Allow windows to start up first time. This will take about 1 mins. DO NOT PRESS YES when prompted if you want to Boot into Android. That will come later. WARNING!!! DO NOT PRESS 'YES' YET! This will cause Android to NOT INSTALL! (If this happens, use the File Explorer to browse to the Windows Directory and Run the Cab "SuperSportAndroidBlueTopia6.cab". Be Sure to install it to your Storage Card, NOT Main Memory. Delete this CAB after installation completes.)
Android will now Silently Install to your SD Card. This will take about 4 minutes. Wait for the XDA UC Service End message and tap OK. YOU MUST WAIT FOR THIS. If it does not come up within about 5 mins, then something might have gone wrong. Flash Task29 again and start the ROM Flash over.
You can now Select Yes to the Window asking if you want to Boot into Android. (Future boots will ask this again. Just select YES to boot Android, or NO to stay in Windows.)
Android will now start up. You will see the Green hTC logo. Allow Android to set up the Data Space. This takes a LONG time! Be VERY Patient. Up to 10 mins the first time (Mine was 8 mins, Future boots after the first time boot quickly). It will sit on HTC logo for a LONG time, then blank screen, then final boot.
Future boots will now give you a prompt to allow Auto Boot into Android, or you can select to go into Windows if you are so inclined. You can also use Android-Ubuntu to change the Auto Boot settings to be quicker or slower, or boot into Windows if you prefer, although, there's not much there.
To boot back into Windows, Remove your SD Card and Reboot. To Flash another ROM, enter Bootloader - Hold down the Volume Down button while powering on your phone.
For my ROM WITH Android, Download above.
For those who just want the WM ROM Without Android Built in, Download Below.
This ROM has the following:
-Free RAM: 373.90MB WOW!!!
-Free Storage: 705.06 WOW
-Very Little left of Windows. It really is not usefull for anything except starting Android.
4 Flavors:
NO Radio NO BootScript - Best for those who already have an Android Compatible Radio and want to use their own Boot Program.
AutoFlash SuperSport Android Ready SuperUltraLite NO Radio NO BootScript.exe
With Radio NO BootScript - Best for those who still need the Radio, but want to use their own Boot Program.
AutoFlash SuperSport Android Ready SuperUltraLite w Radio NO BootScript.exe
NO Radio With BootScript - Best for those who have have an Android Compatible Radio but want to use my Simple "Yes/No" BootScript.
AutoFlash SuperSport Android Ready SuperUltraLite NO Radio w BootScript.exe
With Radio With BootScript - Best for those who need the Radio and Want to use my Simple "Yes/No" BootScript.
AutoFlash SuperSport Android Ready SuperUltraLite w Radio w BootScript.exe
To Do:
Create Cabs of future Android Updates that can easily be installed on top of old builds, or on top of my Android WM ROM.
Looking forward to it
BlueTopia is a nice choice.. Do you think you can post the winmo build?
And have you thought about using UC_NET instead? As you can see the progress bar during setup, might make it easier for some people that arent familiar with UC.. just a thought

I will look into it. Any idea if it can force install to SD Card? That's the trouble I have with XDA_UC, I don't understand it enough to know how to silent install to the SD Card. I'd love to have a progress bar too.
I will post the WinMo build when I have it working properly. There's an issue with the AutoBoot function that I think might be due to the ROM being SO Stripped.

Hmm.. I'm not sure actually, here's the thread for it. Maybe take a look at post 3 (portable commands) in that thread.
Here's a post from him on that topic, from a while ago though (July).
Really Dumb Noob Android Question
I have to use Outlook (corporate environment kind of thing...not Exchange). What is the best way to be able to synch Contacts and Appts. between Outlook and Android?
That is, so far, the only thing holding me back from giving Android a try. And this ROM appears to be a great way to try it out.
Thanks for any advice.
Can you please make a release of JUST the winmo rom? That way we can simply apply whatever android distro we wish to our SD card, and the download is smaller : D

As far as I know, there is not a way to sync using WMDC. It needs to be done using HTC Sync, or using your google account. To use Google, you can set up an email account as an Exchange Account. Set the Server as m.google.com and tell it to sync your email, contacts, and calendar. For some reason, tasks do not work, so don't check them. If you set up Outlook AND your Phone to use the same Google Exchange account, then things will sync wirelessly WITHOUT having to connect to USB. Be aware this will likely use a little more battery if you allow it to sync often.
To use HTC Sync, download it from HERE and install it on your PC. Your phone will need to be set to HTC sync when you connect it to USB.

Yes, when it is working properly, I'll post JUST the WinMo ROM. Currently, it's running just fine, I'm just having trouble getting it to AutoBoot when started.
Ok, I just added to the First Post a link for the WM ONLY ROM. This ROM does NOT include Android.

Free Ram - 373.90 MB WOW!!
Free Storage - 705.06 MB WOW
Includes Radio: 2.15.50.14
Download Size: 53.1 MB

Out of curiousity, is it still possible to run a winmo program since the android os is just an overlay? If so, how?
Also, I tried youtube and the video is horribly choppy. audio is fine but video is stop and go ... stop and go... is this a known issue?
Any soft reset shortcut?
other note: tried running angry birds and it doesnt work.

Actually Android is not overlay on top of Windows. Windows starts haret, then shuts down completely, only leaving Android running. The only way is to reboot, and not boot into Android.
My YouTube is really smooth, but that's over WiFi. Haven't tried over gprs.
No soft reset that I know of. Only holding power button and shutting down.
After trying to run AngryBirds the first time, you must reboot back into Android and run it again. It will run second time around.
PS: one thing I've noticed is that after a couple reboot, things seem to get smoother.
Unfortunately, Android isn't perfect on the HD2 yet, but it's getting better every day...

That brings up a good point. If anyone wants, you can delete the Android off the SD Card and replace it with your favorite flavor. The Boot Script should still work, as long as you place the Android build into the folder Android with CLRCAD.exe and haret.exe in that same Android folder, not a sub folder.
awesome rom thank you,...runs very smoothley and first one where everything has worked!! as soon as funds come in you will be my first donation..
only problem is batterylife life and data speed i live in socal what radio will u reccomend im on tmobil network . and 2 youtube is very choppy unless i use wifi.

Please keep in mind that the Android Build is NOT mine. Please donate to cmylxgo as he is the one who put the Android build together. I cooked the WM ROM, added the Radio, added his Android ROM, and created the BootScript. I just wanted to come up with a way for people to try it that just worked, so I put it all together in one easy to flash package.
Yes, there are still some issues with running Android on WM, but it's slowly getting better. cmylxgo has mentioned a new Android Build coming up shortly. I'll see if I can add it to this thread when it's released.
I've heard about YouTube by a couple of you now. I don't know yet what that is. Not sure if it's My ROM, or the Android Build, but when I find out, I'll try to create a fix.
EDIT: The radio on the first post is the only one I've tried with Android. I'm on ATT, so not sure how that compares to you.
thanks for this simple guide.. *so simple, even a caveman can do it* noob question, how do i restore the phone to factory settings incase I need to send it in?

Hehe, I like that. To revert, you would need to flash the HardSPL back to 2.08 (Use HardSPL 3 and select the 2.08 version), then flash the Stock ROM back on. As far as Android goes, just delete it off the SD Card. My ROM simply copies Android from the ROM to the SD Card and sets up links.
Does the camera work in this one? I really want to ditch WinMo and go to Android, but I want to first be sure everything works. I have read in some other threads that camera support is not working, which seems like it would be a deal breaker for many people.

Yes, it does. That's a deal breaker for me too. I do have occasional data connection problems, but I'm almost always on WiFi, so it has not been a huge deal for me yet. It sounds like cmylxgo is working on the data issue along with other fixes with his Android Build. I will likely update this ROM when that happens. I'll also post instructions for those who do not want to flash the ROM again and just want to update their Android Build.
everything works perfectly, I just flashed it 3 days ago and I'm very pleased so far..... and belive me I've almost tried everything around here.... Thank you Super Sport to put all this togheter.
Hey there guys,
Long time since i've dealt with my diamond..
unfortunately, after putting a couple of hours into trying several ROMs/Radios and 2 versions of Android for diamond, i STILL can't get this to run.
Installation seems to go properly... and the startup files are from the original builds.. and still, when i run haret, instead of booting into android, it reboots after the green line loads.. and goes back to WM.
I'd appreciate if any of you has an idea as to why it would happen.
thanks in advance.
I have the same problem with the newer version of haret on my blackstone. Did you find a solution?
Same problem to me.
I don't know what happends
Diamond: diam300
Android : FroyoBV6
Every time I press haret , Diamond reboot and star Winmo again
Not sure if this is related, but I am having the same problem with 5/31/2011 HaRET on my rhodium 210...
