Hello. I bought HTC diamond branded by vodafone. I have some problems. I cant turn on phone. i cant turn into bootloader. when connect to USB or charger nothing happend. water indicator is OK. there is not water damage.
What i can do ? is there any way to flash it without Activesync connection ?
Please help thanks a lot and sorry for my english
You could try SD card, but without bootloader that is still going to be a problem, as you need that to read the sd
Alright so I was trying to update the rom on my phone to no avail, always the damn program (custom ruu.exe) came up on the last screen displaying error 262 (update error) which is VERY common.
So I find in multiple forums of people recommending a certain update of the diamond phone series, I dont know why the f^*( I tried it, halfway in the update the phone went dark, and now wont turn on AT ALL.
I try the soft reset, battery out for a while, reinstall active sync, try in different pc's (win7 64bit, xp 32bit) no hope so far.... Well the ONLY sign of life is when I plug the phone via usb cable to either PC there is a hardware detected under "Qualcomm CDMA technologies MSM"
I believe its some sort of diagnostic mode to access the phone, but I cannot find drivers ANYWHERE! Please folks help me out is this thing done? is there hope?
PS i tried to update the drive on the Qualcomm device to wince usb (HTC USB SYNC) and it will install, however since IM NOT ABLE to go in the bootloader what else can i try?
i cannot access the bootloader & phone would not turn on.

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but sounds like your only hope lies in using jtag (which is not easy or cheap, could try a warrenty exchange.)

You could also put it in a microwave, or hook it up to a car battery, say it fried it self, then get a new on warranty
so you guys are telling me theres 100% nothing i can do?
not even with the qualcomm usb situation?

so you flash a diamond gsm rom on cdma rhodium your device is one expensife brick its not easy to unbrick it best you can do is say you charge it all night and found not working in the morning send it in for repair and hope you get new one
a good advice read read read before even trying it always be shore
threads like this should get pinned for eternity.
hah i was thinking something like that, except that i just noticed battery low before sleeping, seemed drained in morning, wont turn on now, tried a friends battery and same problem.
PS: the main reason this happened and propably similar threads, is because there are notices to UPDATE YOUR TP2 with a DIAMOND UNLOCKER which misleads us novice users! its a shame for this to happen to such an expensive phone, and i wont usually do what ill attempt, but cant repay this company $600 for a simple fix for them.

Hello, i have recently got a hd7 and i am moving and gonna have no wifi/internet is there a way i can connect the hd7 via USB to my laptop and get a wifi signal so i can use internet on laptop without running up my 2gb dataplan cause it will run it up very quickly . if this is possible can you please point me in the right direction for direction on how this is possible
I don't think it's possible unless you can make your phone as a modem (just like wm6)but i'm afraid you can't do with wp7.
This should work.

Haven't used it on hd7 but used it my hd2 for while. Be careful not to uninstall without in Zune mode. I ended up just leaving it installed after I used it just in case. But now there are fixes so I guess it really doesn't matter.
This will use your 3g data I guess I mean it pretty fast.
Sent from my HD7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Don't try to use that dfrouter I once tried it.I try to connect than i uninstall it and my device cannot recognize my pc and cannot charge you can refer to this link read carefully and you decide before its too late :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204678 I have to send to service centre and lucky they didn't ask much.they change the mainboard and it was a week before i send due to power button failure.
I have a small problem .. my windows phone is, I believe halfbroken .. there is there a way to solve this problem? I would like to install a new rom.
go to the booloader screen, half bricked devices have a lot of text but doesn't say USB or Serial in the white bar... normally this comes with TMobile devices and bootloader 5.12
the fix for this is Y-Cable method, use the search because your question it's already solved...
Hello!
I have an HD7 and it's bricked... and so became when I installed a rom older than HSPL.
My smartphone worked perfectly, until one day, during an upgrade, it shut off, and today, when turned on, the screen is "download mode".
So, he died, and I can't reinstall the rom.
I tried the GoldCard method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597837), but can't find here in Brazil, the usb y cable necessary.
To make matters worse, the support of HTC left Brazil, and the "generic supports" can't do this procedure.
So, I wonder if someone could do this method. I think in sending the smartphone by mail, and bear all necessary expenses.
Someone volunteers?
This is not a troll, but...
"but can't find here in Brazil, the usb y cable necessary"
Please, those things are so easy to get.
But anyway.
