My screen is broken, my phone is unlocked with a ROM.. can I re-lock it?

---

So my screen is shot.. the phone hit the ground very hard.. the screen popped out a bit and doesnt work. Can I put the stock ROM back on it and relock it with out the screen working? I have insurance, but I dont want them to diagnose it and figure out its hacked. Please give me any info you can! Thanks guys!

you should be able to, are you able to sync the phone w/your comp via activesync? ifso, just flash back to the shipped ROM (relock if necessary, and swap 'er out!)

how can u flash back to the stock rom? i have the ntelos version and i have flashed it with 2 different roms. how can i get my stock ntelos rom back?

you will have to download the stock/shipped rom, maybe from your carrier's website?

i'm not familiar w/ntelos so i'm not sure where to find the stock rom.

*after a few mins of searching through the ntelos site i found a link to diamond "software download" on the lower left - http://nteloswireless.com/phones/htc/htcdiamond.php

which will take you to the HTC site where ROM updates appear to be available:

and a link to the most recent ROM DL, you'll have to enter your serial # to access the ROM - http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownlo...at=2&dl_id=483

i entered my serial number and it said the serial # was invalid

It seems to have worked.. I called Asurion, and they sent my phone.. just got it!! Thanks guys.. now time to unlock get it back to where i had it!

How do you lock the phone back though after you've flashed back to stock rom. My screen no longer recognizes the touch. And I will definitely have to take it in for repairs asap. Is there a cab out there?

I broke a screen on mine before and was able to do whatever with it...then again if you are getting it replaced by insurance... you could technically say it was lost / stolen and you wouldn't have to bother with re-locking etc.
