Before you proceed, please note that I cannot be accountable/liable for any damage caused to your phone. This is only a guide!*
THIS TUTORIAL IS ONLY FOR HTC TOUCH DIAMOND - NOT FOR DIAMOND2 / TOUCH PRO / HD2 ( This is simply because i don't have these devices with me and that i haven't tested! Those who have a spare handset are welcome to send it to me for diagnosis )
Let me get straight to the point. I’ve found out the solution to all the screen blackouts or the famous “microp error”. I’m sure no HTC so called Technical department could solve this.
I’ve been sitting 40Hrs straight with my HTC Diamond. ( The worst part is removing the screw’s and putting them back.)
THE PROBLEM –
1.It’s a hardware problem. Upgrading the microp.dll will not solve anything. ( Microchips gives really wired errors)
2.SYMPTOMS : A dialogue box showing “ Microp version 0 , Upgrade firmware “ (as far as I can remember) , dim or no backlight , no charging indicator , No backlight for physical keys , no touch sense (D button) , soft reset button non responsive..
3.EARLY WARNINGS: (a). If u have dropped your HTC diamond , then there is an 87% chance of this happening. (b.) Exposure to extreme cold/heat. ( if it’s a heat issue then u might need to replace the motherboard.)
THE SOLUTION
I don’t have a cam to record the entire event. But there is a YouTube video of an HTC dissembling. I’ve downloaded the video and put captions in it so that it would be clearer. Video will be uploaded soon.

PROCEDURE
When you remove the back cover , you’ll see
1.The battery
2.Sim card holder
3.Tons of screw’s
Remove all the visible screw’s.Remember , your warranty will get void if you have one!! This tutorial is for ones without warranty. Take a look at this picture :
http://www.twitpic.com/1cymw5
Remove the screw's shown above..
Next Locate the below chip.
www.twitpic.com/1cynw4
This chip is the main cause for the screen problem. This chip wen taken out has 2 connectors beneath it . These connectors wen gone loose causes the screen problem. It will take a few hours to just get them in place. ( HTC need to improve in build design)
www.twitpic.com/1cymhp . ( 2 connectors ) take out all the stickers if you want. Less annoying ..
Press it with your thumb (HARD) to ensure that they are in place. You can hear the click sound if you switch off your “Room” fan. Once this is done , put the battery without replacing the rest of the parts . ( All connections connected ) .. Try to turn it ON. If it doesnt , try again . Again it doesn't turn on then try again. Keep on trying. I'm sure that you'll get it working. IF it does turn on , please post reply's.
NOTE : Make sure that you connected everything back ( Very IMP) . For those who cannot take the chip out , I recommend you to watch a youtube video on how to dissemble an HTC diamond.

THANX TO TEAM XDA !
I was wondering what went wrong d day wen i rebooted my device.
I was screwed with an error message "microp error please update ur firmware"
googled a lot before ending up with team XDA.
came to know its a software problem, i cleared storage, updated a rom but nothing worked. finally i read xda instructions, i went to d nearest mobile store n explained everything. (since i dont have tools to disassemble my device at home) d service man did d job n i got my htc diamond working !
he just charged 100 rupees, htc service center wud have definitely asked much more than that !
thanks to xda ! but d lesson i learnt is "NEVER DROP/THROW UR HTC"
----------thank you----------

Hi Siddharthsai,
I have a screen problem but a bit more unique. The touch screen can work for a while if I leave it alone but after using the phone for a while, the screen does not work. If I were walk around with the phone, the screen will not work.
The buttons all can work and the phone can function for programs that can be controlled by the buttons. I am wondering if the problem is the same as yours in terms of connection problem.
Appreciate your advise on this.
Thanks.

Have you tried Hard reset? Hold down the volume key and press the reset key and power button . Backup your data using PIM backup before doing this... let me know if its coming again..waiting for your reply.
I have done the hard reset using the volume down/enter and reset button. I have reached the screen where I have to press on the cross hair and is stuck here as the touch panel is not able to click on the exact spot as it is always clicking to the bottom left. The same thing happened when I tried hard reset using "clear all data and format" but have to wait for a while until the screen can work.
After that the screen problem came back again. Any other suggestions?
Thanks.
@ above
Sorry for the late reply. had some work.
Is you battery low? just turn off your device and charge until its full . this happens mostly when you use duplicate charger . try charging with htc original charger ( borrow it from a frnd ) ...charge it fully and hard reset. Tell me if it works... by the way are you having an Indian version of diamond? ( 2G) ?
Let me know.
RE:
Flash it with a new ROM and if it still persists , then its a hardware prob. do you still have warranty ?
man you are the bomb. many thanks for this tutorial
@ above
Thanx buddy. its not just me , its everyone in XDA ...we all rock
Guess what! My problem is solved. Did a hard reset yesterday but was stuck at the cross hair allignment as the screen was not responding. Left the phone overnight and could complete the allignment the next morning. After rebooting, the touch screen was jammed again.
Try flicking the screen with my finger a few times and managed to move from page to page and after flicking many times, the touch screen recovered and has been OK for the past 10 hours.
Guess one of the solutions for those who have intermittent problem is to flick your screen top and bottom. Guess the pressure must have connected any loose joints. I am a happy guy today )

Thats good to hear... see ... if you try , you can..congrats.
I have a HTC Touch Pro 2 and I am getting the Microp error. The phone is not covered by warranty so looks like I may have to attempt to fix it myself.
I notice your tutorial deals with the Diamond - Any idea how to fix a Touch Pro 2?
@ above
Bro . Microp error comes because of the connectors. Since this is a slightly bulky , twice as big as diamond and has a slide out keypad , i suggest you to take it to a guy who knows to remove and fix things back.. ( not service center ) .. he'll charge you probably 200-300 bucks...just tell him to reassemble it back. Let me know...
Regards
HTC Touch HD microp error solved
I recently made an attempt to do the same to a Touch HD which showed the same Microp error and know what , its working... PM me for the tutorial
( cant post on the diamond forum )
Regards
I needed new screen, the easy part was taking apart but stuck on these 2 connectors well the bigger one, even when apart it does not seem to go together?
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..

Good evening.
*
This must be the first time I have come to ask for help on a forum . I still love me cope by myself and find one solution , but now the situation is serious !
*
Voila, my SGS- I9000 is on, I can be on the phone but it goes off randomly! Sometimes in the middle of a YouTube video, or the Store, this problem sometimes occurs after ignition 10s or 10min. It's totally random . Smaller, when the phone receives a small clash between the slot for the SIM and that for the SDCard , it also turns off . ( And just at that point . ) But that's not too serious.
When the phone is off and I turn back , he comes back in 5-8 seconds (I find it fast . ) And surprise, if I had a download in progress , or write a message , it continues !
I tried Captivate Keep Alive but nothing works .
I re-re -re- re-re -re- flashed stock Rom base . And the phone is Roote .
I tried several batteries.
Save me . Please . I was given a Windows Phone in the meantime. You even imagine not . The total lack of customization that there's on this phone. I want to find my good old Android.
Thank you . From the heart.
(Sorry for my poor english, i'm french)

well, this is where you need to check (the SIM slot and SD slot) if contacts broken or shorting, you can buy one from ebay to change , most likely you have to dismantle back cover and do some cleaning inside of the phone and make sure all is normal . Look at My Directory (link below) for dismantling guides as well as technician manual to know how it should be fitted . Also USB slot, needs cleaning, look here
Basically a general check against internal shorts, would be the issue here.
Check this out! Links to useful Guides and " Banned " Documentaries
I also used to get random restarts but I found out my problem was I had my CPU frequency too low, below 200 mhz and it would random reboot.
Sounds to me like bit loose contact somewhere.
Are you sure whole the phone goes off, and not only the screen gets dark?
Ive been looking for my answer for like 3 days i swear im not just being lazy. and i have feeling the answer is somewhere on these forums but damn so much INFO....
My display screen is dunzo and im tryin to sync my HTC DESIRE510 to my pc, The pc reads the device and opens the file explorer with no worries. However, the software im trying to use will not detect my phone? I dont understand... Im sure im missing some step here.
Im not really sure about the phone, im not super tech savy but its a boost phone if that makes any difference. Ive noticed the threads bout unlocking the devices. I notice when my device connects the icons flash across the screen saying usb and usb something else... but then like a few seconds later a litttle box with two lil like < > marks inside of the box. i dont know what this means... is there an icon list for me to look at somewhere?
Please help...
Im sorry in advance cuz i really think the answer is right in front of me but im just to nubby to know it
