I installed HTC Home Plug In (to SD card), HTC Customizer (to SD card) and a battery indicator in the Windows Start Up File. These are all apps I had installed before on previous devices including my HTC 3470 and AT&T Tilt -with no problem. It shows the O2 start screen, goes to the Windows Mobile screen, vibrates and then starts all over again - screen goes blank, O2 sreen, etc. Any ideas on how I get out of boot mode would be great. I know how to do Hard SPL, Flash a ROM etc. However, I can't get it out of the boot mode to flash it.

just keep the buttons pressed!
just like this:
1. Press and hold the both lower buttons, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the bottom of your device.
2. Release the RESET button, but continue pressing the the other buttons until you see a message that everything will be deleted.. bla, bla, bla.
Fixed. Your advice and patience has helped. I was too fast and wasn't waiting long enough for the screen to appear!! Many thanks!
this is my first post
sorta new to htc, but i've worked some with flashing and working with motorolas, so i'm not totally new to all this. i've got an issue i haven't been able to find a thread about though. i've got a tilt/kaiser that got interupted during a file transfer and was going only to the "tri color" screen/ bootloader (i assume this is the bootloader screer). while in this screen active sync doesn't recognize the phone, but i've read that isn't really abnormal. i tried various hard spl jump spl "shots in the dark" but i haven't been able to figure out if there are actual programs that i need to use to install these roms, or if its supposed to just "work". mtty see's the thing sometimes, and doesn't other times. any how, after hours of messing around, i found that if i unplug the usb and bull the batter, then reinsert the battery and immediatly press the power button it boots. i thought i inadvertantly fixed it, but i tried to do a hard reset (soft keys, and stylus deal) and it went directly back to the multi colored screen. i pulled the batt and put it back in and didn't push anything and it went right to the same screen. i then pulled the back and did the immediate power button and it booted again.
so, all that to say, i know its not actually fixed, but active sync can see it now, so i assume my actual question needs to be: how do i actually "flash"/"reflash" the at&t rom and is that actually what i need to do?
the info on the tri color (and white, quad color??) screen is:
KAIS1*0
SPL-1.56.0000
CPLD-8
and at the bottom it will read serial if the cable is unplugged and usb when it is
thanks in advance for any help
first i would try a hard reboot tto do this yuo have to hold down the two soft keys and hit the reset button with the stylist what you are doing is a soft reset try this and let me know what happen
after that you have to flash hard spl inorder to flash a new rom
You need to install hard spl before attempting to flash a new/cooked rom, see the kaiser wiki, flashing without hard spl will brick your phone. If you have already tried flashing then try mtty task 2a to restore to factory default. Check the Kaiser Wiki, all the info you need is there.
let me know if you need help with hard spl
sorry, i've been out of town and haven't had any time to mess with this problem. i'll do some more reading about hard spl and flashing before i go much farther. i did try the hard reset with the softkeys and stylus but it just went back to the multi colored screen i remember. i also remember that after sucessully getting it to actually boot three consecutive times by holding the power button briefly after inserting the battery, i tried it a fourth time and could never get it to start all the way back up. we'll see how it goes and i'll try to post something difinitive either way. thanks for your help so far.
Hi, first let me say im sorry if this has already been covered somewhere, i have spent all day searching the wiki and forum to no avail. If the solution is already here please point me in the direction and delete this thread.
I have just flashed my kaiser from the original vodafone WM6 ROM to Dutty's WM6.1 Hybrid v2 5.2.19716/5.2.19700. At first everything seemed fine, then when i tried to restore the backup id created with sprite backup it restored, reset and now wont get past the loading screen. It shows the vodafone splash screen then duttys htc screen then goes back to vodafone.
I used Hardspl 3.29 before flashing. I tried hard reseting which made no difference. i cant get into the bootloader (tried the camera, power reset thing loads) and i cant connect to my pc as it wont go past the splash screen.
I had a look at MTTY but it doesnt give the options described in the instructions and after reading the warnings about MTTY decided i shouldnt mess around with what i dont understand.
Any help will be greatly apreciated, i love my phone and the idea that ive just broken it scares the crap out of me.
Thanks
Sandy

first, are you SURE you can't get into bootloader?
I know it sounds stupid, but try REALLY pushing the camera button in while pushing the stylus into the reset hole. Once you get to the bootloader (tri-color screen), try flashing a different ROM
good luck

I agree here a lot of people don't realize the Camera button is a two stage button. It stops at Half-Press then you can push again to get Full Press. You need a Full Press to get into bootloader.
Just to clarify.
Press and hold the camera button and at the same time insert stylus in reset hole and hold until bootloader comes up.
In other words, do not let up until bootloader shows. It should take around 2-3 seconds.
yea ive been doing that. After trying many times i have found that holding the camera button down for around 2 minutes after the htc dutty series screen comes up brings up a white screen with the error message;
"the device is unable to boot either because you have turned off the device incorrectly or tried to install an application from an untrusted source. press send to reset or any other key to cancel"
The message dissapears if i let go of the camera button, and resets back to the vodafone screen and stays there. If i press the send button same thing happens (just an idiot check but the send button is the green pick up button right?) ive tryed the enter button and both soft keys but all to the same result. I have tried holding down each button on that screen as well and the error message stays as long as i hold the button but when i let go it just goes back to the vodafone splash screen and stays there.
I have tried holding the stylus with the camera button all the way through to this error message, doesnt seem to make a difference.
just to clarify, ive done what you suggest and still cant get into the bootloader.
Thanks for any help, this is driving me mad.
hold the camera button and use the stylus to press the reset button, and continue holding the camera button until the bootloader screen pops up.
i used to let go the camera button as soon as the screen go black, but then it just reset the device instead of going into the bootloader...
oh forgot to mention. Shotly after the dutty series screen comes up i get the window appearing sound but nothing comes on screen. suggests to me that maybe its trying to tell me whatswrong but i can see what it is. maybe, i dunno..

Im holding the camera button for around 2 minutes before it does anything, then i get the above error message.
Do you have a storage card installed?
yes. tried taking it out and doing the same thing. no different.
anything else i could try?

OK But are you also holding your stylus in the Reset Hole?
If yes, And you can't get into Bootloader, well I think you are "boned"
Yes im doing that. Boned? really? What about the error message that eventually comes up? isnt there anything i can do from there? Any other way of reseting it so maybe the bootloader works?
And if its really broken, do you recon my network will send me another or have i just properly voided the warranty?
Hi, guys!
I 've just got a HTC Touch pro (O2 Xda diamond pro) from O2. I was not really satisfied with the branded Touch Flo 3d interface wherefore I tried to use the Diamond 3d Config Tool touchflo to put my device back to original HTC settings. But since these original UI was much slower than the O2 one(personal impression) I decided again to reset my device to use the stabdard O" branded Touch Flo 3d interface. Unfortunatelly when I change to keyboard mode I still see a HTC screen instead of the O2 screen.
Can you please help me on this?
I have also tried to hard reset my device, but foudn out that when I restart the device and press the VOLUME DONW and the ENTER key (on teh keyboard) the only thing that happens is that I see four color bars on the screen with some yellow numbers and text. THats all.
Please can you help me at least by telling me (maybe with photos) which buttons to use to hard reset and how the screen should look like? I have ofcourse checked the user guide, but I do not see the screen asking me whether I really want to do a hard reset (as described in the user guide).
Please help me on this!!!
Many thanks in advance!

Some would say RTFM or the Wiki before you post but I've been helped so many times here when I didn't deserve it I'll say volume down + enter + reset
Hi!
Yes, thanks for the tip, but I have ofcourse tried that and as I said there are just some color bars appear on the screen. BUt before they appear I see a message "No Image File!". SHould that mean, I cannot hard reset my devicè anyway?

The enter key is the circular button under the screen, not the one on the keyboard
Still does not work
Many thanks for the tip. Yeah, it really looks like a circus act, but still does not work at all. First fo all I see a white screen (I assume that is the boot loader) saying "Loading ..." and short time after that I see a message "No Image File!". After that, I only see the following screen. Sorry for bad image quality. Took it with my old Nokia 6230i device.
Any tips?
Maybe there is someone who knows either from where to get an original O2 xda Diamond Pro image or how to setup the vertical screen that appears when the keyboard is open?
Text on the screen:
RAPH120
SPL-1.90.0000
MicroP-Raph (LED) v13
MicroP-Raph (KEY) v5
PSOC-Raph STAGE_CVT v0x36
Serial
Many thanks in advance!

Is there really noone who can help me out?
Hi,again!
Does anybody noticed the same problem as I have described above?
Please help me out guys!
Thanks in advance!
Regards
BBMG
You did read that the "enter" button is the round button on the front and not the "enter" button on the keyboard?
you entered bootloader, that mean you didnt hold the "enter" button (circular looking, when plugged in you see lights around it) at front of the phone, while holding vol down and press the reset button
BIG BIG Thanks
Hi, again!
You, were totally right. I was too stupid to recognize the round button as the enter button, although it was mentioned already before.
Now, my device is restored correctly.
Thank You!
hmmm
i kinda got the same problem but i pressed the Circle Button + Volume Down + Soft Reset
.. always if i do so it hangs at the T-Mobile screen
the bootloader with Volume Down + Soft Reset works fine
... any tips what i do wrong or what i could do now ?
and btw dont install Nydiot Virtual Desktop on your raph
Guys,
I am really in a fix. It seems my HTC Diamond 2 is stuck at the first screen (all black with HTC written in grey). I cant access my phone book and the operations are extremely slow. I have tried doing the soft restart by pressing button next to the stylus. Please help. Also as yo may have guessed I am extremely basic in my knowledge of technical stuff so please try to keep it as basic as possible. Any Kind of Help will be appreciated.
I guess you could start off with taking out your battery... But I guess you already did that?
Same Issue
Hi, I'm having the same problem described above, but worse. I have an HTC Diamond 2. It stays at the logo screen (black screen with HTC letters in white). It doesn't pass anywhere from there. I've tried using the reset button on the back near stylus, tried the hard reset (Vol Up/Down + Power key) but it doesn't respond. There's an option that "works": If I press the 'call' key + power button, it shows an update menu with the following: 1. Update Logo 2. Update OS 3. Update Eboot 4. Format User Space 5. Return; none work except for the format user space option, but it does nothing.
I've tried also from the PC but it doesn't recognize the device via USB. I downloaded Active Sync, and an update wizard from HTC.com but still no success in recognizing the device.
Please help me, I need this phone to keep working, I don't know what triggered the problem..
