Hello everybody,
I tried to flash my phone with the Bell UI beta 2 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445372
That didn't work because I got the error message INVALID MODEL ID, then I made a little bit of research and found this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409425 it explains how to bypass the INVALID MODEL ID problem, so I reconfigured the ROM and flashed it. Everything seemed to work fine when I flashed it, then after flashing I tried to boot the phone but it's stuck at the "touch diamond" startup screen. I'm able to get into the bootloader and I've already tried to hardreset multiple times with no success. I've got a DIAM100 with SPL-1.40.Olinex.
Now is there anyway of fixing this? Or do I have to send it in?
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Thanks!

not an expert on this, but just a couple things to note..
1) if you can enter bootloader, then you haven't bricked your device.. might want to change the post title..
2) have you tried flashing back to your stock ROM?

Is it really bricked ?
ok try that :
Start your phone and maintain Vol Down,
you should enter in bootloader mode, so just try to flash with another rom.

Since you can power on the device it is not really bricked I guess, cause last time I bricked mine, the power didn't even go on...
Guess you should just try another ROM

it's not as bad, as you think (hopefully):
-enter in bootloader mode (as suggested above)
-u'll see the colored screen with USB written on its lower side
- onnect it to your pc with USB cable
- start flashing a working rom in a normal way
it should work!

hey guys you are awesome! I didn't know that you can flash your device within the bootloader! I've now reflashed with a never bell version and it works great! Bell is really smooth TF3D could learn something from pointui ^^
Thanks alot!
