HELP please! Burned my Diamond with ROM Update

[davidl]

Hi all,

i just tried an ROM update on my diamond and ended up with a probably burned diamond.

I tried to updated to "Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex" and then to Elite 2.0.
First the Hard-SPL updated didn't work an stoped at 1%.
As i figgured out i had to start the update tool as administrator under my Windows Vista.

The diamond now starts and shows the following screen:
1. A Water like Picture
2. The Text "Xda diamond" in the bottom left corner
3. The Text (in red characters)
R 1.00.25.03
G 52.26a.25.09
D 1.37.00.00
4. The Character "H" (in red) next to the "Xda diamond" Text

The Diamond stops here and does nothing.
I can get to the three colors screen by pressing Vol Down and Reset.
I also tried a hard reset which worked, but i ended up at the same screen and the diamond does nothing and just stops there.

Have i completely damaged my Diamond? (I hope not, would be a nightmare to me)

I will be very grateful for any kind of help on this!

Thanks in advance!

Did u have Flash Hard SPL before?
When u didnt, the Update stops @1% whit err msg like: Wrong vendor ID

Then u have to flash hard SPL before, is sticky in this Forum.

Try maybe with a ROM from here in the first Sticky post, then u can ask for support.


hope helped u

when you get the "three colour screen" then everything
should be ok, try to reflash the device!

[davidl]

Hi thanks for the quick answer!

I tried now to flash again to the Hard-SPL 1.30... but i get an Error 284 at 0%.

The three color screen shows the following:
DIAM300 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.LiMex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11

PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVI v0x30

Any ideas?

Any help welcome!

I am getting a wrack, my nerves are going crazy. I hope i can recover at least to some ROM now...

[mastah]

Flash hard-spl, set ur device in bootloader mode (tri-color screen. Search for it if u doesent know how)
And flash one of the compatible Roms, they are sticky in the forum.
Maybe urs spl isnt compatible whit the Rom u flashed.

When the Device boot's, and u see the red signs whit numbers, then i think its all ok...
...only incomplete rom.


greets, and good luck

Try to flash on XP

I can feel ur pain

[davidl]

thanks mashta,

i will try it on vista 32 first, since i do not have xp here :-)

thanks again for all the help!

[mastah]

On Vista 64, I had to take the following steps to have it working:

Fisrt: connect the device in boot mode to the PC

Second: wait until Vista installs a driver update

Third: disconnect the device and restart the PC after the update is installed

Forth: right-click on the RUU executable, and choose
compatibility mode with Win XP SP2

Fifth: run the RUU, cross your fingers and start praying


As how to enter bootloader, press volume down and reset simultaneously

I had no problem flashing to Unsigned Hard-SPL (1.4?) and bepe's bElite 0.54 Basic ROM using Windows Vista Business x64 (SP1).

It worked out of the box, without any special drivers installed whatsoever. I believe there were some drivers installed when I got it into bootloader mode, but aside from WMDC I didn't install any extra software

sounds like a bad flash? i once had the same problem with HTC tytn2, and i managed to contact forumer GSLeon who helped me out. he said "after a bad flash,u should never keep attempting to flash again, because u may permanently brick your phone"

[davidl]

THANK GOOD IT WORKS AGIN! :):):)

And now the asnwer what was the problem:
A fucking USB-HUB from MSI!

I had my diamond connected throu that USB hub and so everytime i tried to flash i had communication errors at 0% or 1%.

I connected the diamon directly to my pc and guess what:
It worked like a charm.

THANKS AGAIN TO ALL THE HELP FROM PEOPLE HERE!
This forum is realy amazing.

Thanks again very very much!

I am so happy to have my diamon back :-)

And i will never buy a MSI USB HUB again...

[Blob8me]

Releived is not the right word, back to life fits more :-)

Thanks again for all the help i have got here!

[ratcom]

And i will never buy a MSI USB HUB again...Just so that in a few weeks time when someone else searches and finds this thread.........
NEVER US ANY KIND OF HUB TO FLASH A PHONE, ALWAYS PLUG THE PHONE DIRECTLY INTO YOUR MOTHERBOARDS USB SOCKET

Oh and davidl you are one lucky son of a bitch ;)

[cmonex]

people could read a bit more before trying to help - the guy obviously had the hardspl flashed because of the version that was reported in tricolour. (1.40.etc...though it was mistyped :) )

anyway good that it got resolved OK. using hubs is indeed not recommended.
