Hello!
Only recently had i descovered this useful forum full of tweaks , apps , themes , and roms for my handset , so i entrust you with finding the best answers for my questions , for this is the best website i have found on the web regarding my issues.
I own a HTC Touch Diamond for over a year now. Nothing fancy , still has his original settings and stuff since the day i pulled it out of its case. Problem is , i got tired of my Windows Mobile 6.1 and decided to upgrade my headset OS to 6.5...
This is where my problems began. I read alot of tutorials , watched a "lifetime" of "how to" videos , i collected as much info as possibile regarding the update to 6.5;
I did find on the forum tons of W6.5 ROMs and downloaded a few that i personally admire.
Now the tedious part.Upgrading...
I followed all the instructions and managed to upgrade my ROM version. For an unknown reason , i managed to downgrade it ^^. Went back from 2.03 i think , to 1.87/1.37 (can`t recall now , its 7 in the morning and i`m at college) and said to myself "this should be normal , thats what tha tutorials sais".
I carried on and started the Windows install process. My headset screen turned into the familliar red/green/blue/yellow stripes as it was booting the new OS.
Then , a progress bar emerged and sat at 0% for almost 10 minutes. The progress bar on my laptop did the same thing : not budge for a long period of time. Thinking this is how it works , dead-slow at the start and eventually progressing towards the finish... Did not happen!
Instead , my phone froze it`s ass still , and the software responsible with installing my new OS errored out with a message sort of like : There was a problem bla bla connection bla bla , troubleshoot. Yeah , how kind of you!
Removed the PSU from the phone , inserted it back , and restarted. SURPRISE , it didn`t brick the F up! But now i`m stuck with an old version of the same 6.1 ROM with no GPS and wireless capabilities... Sweet!
Can any of you generous and intelligent gentlemen have the time/kindness to help me out on my problem? I fear bricking this once working , now broken down piece of "stinking waste" phone. I really like it and don`t have the financial means of buying another handset , so i would wish to keep it intact and working for as long as possibile...
If not , then advice me never to try to install a W6.5 ROM on it , maybe cause i heard collegues telling me the headset is old (obsolete maybe) and could not handle this new OS. If this is the case , at least i have your brilliant minds telling me this , and i will do so because i trust your knowledge.
Thank you , and looking forward to hear from you!

I need somebody to guide me step by step through the process , i am desperate!
My current 6.1 ROM is "broken" , my WiFi , my GPS and even SMS don`t work as they should...
Please help me somehow!

i have been updating and trying different roms over the last couple of days, i decided last night to revert back to o2 xda mini s original rom downloaded from o2, uploaded the wizard-love rom then started the updsate as instructed, followed the instructions and it installed, however when i soft reset during the 3 second customisation period, the device shows no sign of life, and wont turn on............................................i would like to know if i have bricked my phone, or there could be other reasons, before i go to the expense of getting repaired.
the only info on the device i can remember was i had the wizard-love rom installed before the upgrade and it is a G4 device and i am gethering it is(was)CID locked.
Many thanks in advance for any assistance someone/anyone can give
I think the o2 rom you were trying to load contains IPL/SPL. On a G4 this could mean a bricked phone. Still, I think I've heard people using their carriers rom on their G4 without problems? Could someone confirm this? I always take out the IPL and SPL and recook the rom just to make sure.
You don't even get to the IPL/SPL screen? You could try putting it onto the wallcharger for serveral hours and try again. Good luck!
i hear you and thanks for reply, only tried that rom as it is the only o2 rom and actually says it is the factory one for my phone, so must admit , presumed it was compatible....................while i am writing does anyone know of a way of reviving this problem, even if it means a price,
regards
just to update, no ipl/spl screen or life at all , tried the wallgharge but nothing as yet, regards
cid locked
are you getting any response from the phone at all? if not leave the battery out for at least two hours then put battery back in and just charge from the wall without turning on the device for at least an hour. if it still doesnt turn on whatsoever its bricked!
if thats the case then do as i did last year when i accidently bricked mine and claim that you lost your phone to your insurance
good luck
mark
no responce at all, will try your suggestion , however as i bought it off ebay no insurance and no contents ins also, never mind .............easy come easy go
regards
another update, contacted ok xda repair center and as it is " bricked " will cost me in the region of £185, so not sent..............however thanks for the help everyone , much appreciated
good to hear that your enjoying your phone again..
just be very very carefull nextime..

thanks for the reply, not using phone as still bricked , so bit the bullet and have just pusrchased an xda orbit, however will not be updateing roms for a while , at least until i get some use out of the phone
regards
Bought it 5 days ago. When the battery went dead last night, I plugged it in to charge and switched it on .It did not go past the Windows Mobile splash screen. I took the battery out as well as the sim and memory cards, to no avail. I left it plugged in overnight and got the battery fully charged (battery indicator light is now green) and the network status green light would (at least sometimes) start flashing on boot, even though the phone would not completely boot up. I CAN get it into bootloader. What I want to know is, should I go to www.htc.com and download and install an official ROM from there, or should I leave all that alone and take it back to where I got it from before I screw it up? Additionally, the phone shows up as a Dopod D810 when registered on www.htc.com, and the radio and ROM versions appear to be lower/older than what came pre-installed in the phone. Advice anyone? I am fairly new and in the process of learning all this wonderful stuff you guys have to teach.
it seems like its already been fiddled with (correct me if i'm wrong people), i would visit the HTC club site and if you can upgrade using your serial number do that, as if you look in the trinity WIKI in "Trinity" forum (Not Trinity 6 forum, here) it states there is a different way to flash the p3600i as its setup different than the standard p3600.
This is exactly what happened to my phone when the battery died (after installing FInixNOver) Is there a problem with these ROMS, or something that happens when the phone dies!... My phone was also 'sticking/frozen/crashed' on the splash screen.
I just reflashed it with a new ROM after fully charging it again.
Thanks VISTAR. And WIZZKID - your phone works perfectly now after the flashing? And do you think it's because of the stuff you installed? BTW my ROM was an official HTC ROM. I actually got called out early this morning to do a flight to the island where I bought the phone (I am a commercial pilot flying Caribbean routes) and I packed it's backside back in the box and sent it to be exchanged. I don't have the new one yet, but I am beginning to wonder if I shouldn't try something else because of this problem of sticking at the splash screen - however I only have a choice of the Kaiser and the S730 at the moment. The P3600/P3600i is among my favourite WM phones of all times, but I don't wanna have to go thru this again. What do you guys think? By the way - I only just realized that I started this post in the wrong section, so please forgive me anyone whom is not pleased by that.
iF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE OF A KAISER I WOULD GO WITH THAT, ITS THE BEST OUT THERE AT THE MOMENT..
Yeah I know but I just don't like it the way I like the P3600i and some of the others. Besides I prefer no sliding hardware keyboard. Moving parts is an issue for me as I am very fussy about wear and tear/looseness. Thanks again for your help. I am gonna move over to WIZZKID's thread on this P3600/P3600i non-starting issue since I am in the wrong section of the forum. Thanks to all those who assisted...
Got a second P3600i and it did the same thing - a hard reset fixed the problem.
Hello all, i bring this up caz' i spend so much time figuring what is happing with my O2 xda terra (hera 100) aka htc herald p4350-(incredible how many names this phone have)-which is, the touchscreen is dead, and all happend suddenly.i made tha soft reset-no use, i made hard reset-i got stucked in the align screen,i read very much about this device and i put a new rom on it-same no use, everything is working except the touch.i put the phone a part, i checked each cable, i measured with an ohm-meter the resistance of the digitizer (it sense the presence),i put diferent calibration data in the registry---nothing.... i m exaust,i spend my last 4-5 days being the most activ user on this forum, i m out of power but i really want to fix this. I need you humble opinion about this problem, i can t figure if the problem is software or hardware. thanks u all
Hello during the last week my I9000 try to do something weird, after trying a regular cellular call the screen freeze , there is time that android debuger report on android.phone that hang or crash .
like 99% of ppl i thought its my rom , so restock it via ODIN to the stock kernel & rom , and supprise still the same problem but without reporting , its just hang on black screen during call , so i tried to open and clean it little bit (he looked new inside) the alcohol didnt help .
he didnt wet or something and after all my tests 100% its not a soft problem .
any idea what to do ? (if reball / reflow needed ill try to do myself i've the equipment) and out of warranty , so before buying new one ....
Thank for all the advices ppl !
didnt mention it but ..
the cellular call is work and i can hear the voice and speak , but all the phone process stuck or crash , try more than 5 ROMS and 3 kernels (not including stocks)
Right.
First of all - I have no idea which ROMs you have tried yet. but, phone.apk crash WAS popular some time ago...
As I never experienced it - I have no personal experience (but I have good will, once per year ) so...
If I'd be you - I would dig this forum for phone.apk crash, using search button... and I'd Start from here
Good luck
Thank you..

Hey guys , i bought the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0' from thailand this is the full Specs:
On the box stated : SM-T715YZDETHL
in the about menu stated : SM-T715Y
Build Number : MMB29K.T715YDXU2BPJ1
T715YDXU2BPE3
android 6.0.1
- i didn't touch it , just update (no root nor anything alike)
the first time i opened the device ( which was sealed ofc ) it had a issue that some texts got dissapeared (you see like W lc om instead of Welcome and some more stuff like that) , black covers layers of the screen some times and a few more strange stuff.
i cannot send it to services of thailand because i dont live there nor around there.
once updated to 6.0.1 seems like the first problem solved but i still cannot play any 3D Game (it just crash on start , also i get poor results on some benchmark tests) , seems like an hardware issue but i wanted to make sure its not a software issue.
i wanted to install an english version or internetional version 6.0.1 android but cannot find any info on it. and not sure about the thai version i have.
so , what roms can i flash ? , do i need to do bootloader unlock first or something like that ?
thanks alot guys - you guys are my last hope...
well.. now it wont even charge.. (it's just giving a Red X icon on the battery while connected to the charger (all original and came with it!)
it started 2 minutes after i added a new SIM Card somehow ..
i tried 4 diffrent chargers (which works on other phones and tablets).
cannot burn a new rom because the usb wont regonize even in Download mode.
any idea ?
(i tried to blow air inside the charge pin and clean it.. all stayed the same sadly..) .
thanks guys.
Jesus..
well got past the NO Charge/USB problem.
and also rooted my device.
seems like i have hardware issues with the GPU (Mali) ..
