Hello.
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask about this, but i'll just give it a try.
Recently my diamond started acting weird. Suddently some data wasn't there (Like contacts), and then after some time the phone freezes. Then i reeboot the phone by pressing the Reset button in the back, and then when it boots again, it is trying to make the firstboot screen again, but it cannot configure again because there is no more space for that. :S
Then i Re-flash the phone, and it works for like 3 hours and then Does the above again.
Anyone know what this can be, and if i can correct it?? I think it is some sort of hardware thing, but hope you guys know better
I know how to flash and some other things, but see me as a newbie (no fancy Words pleace )
Phone:
Diamond GSM 100
Rom: GEN Y DX2
Hard-SPL 4 Olinex
Radio: 1.11.25.01
Hi
I don't know if your problem is similar to the I had, where my phone would freeze at a random point and resetting was the only option. After the reset the phone would delete everything on the main memory (including messages and contacts). After a month with reflashing different roms, I think I kind found a solution that I hope also works out for you:
1. Download the original stock rom from HTC:
http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=2&dl_id=483
2 Install it by following this guide:
The DEFINITIVE MTTY Thread!! - Diamond Edition
by MysticGenius. (The method basically deletes everything and gives you kind of a fresh start)
3Now everything should hopefully be working smoothly and you are free to reflash it with your favourite rom
Good luck (^.^)

Hello friends, this is my first post in prophet forum, though I had been a ppc user for more than 2 years. 5 months back, I bought an O2 XDA Neo, which was loaded with a dopod rom, with numbers coming up as 2.09.001 etc during startup. Shortly after purchase, I flashed with RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship rom. Everything went on well, and I was using the phone without problems for the past 2 - 3 months. Well not exactly without problems, some times when I reset the phone, it gets stuck at the spl, ipl screen, and I have to reset again many times to get it to load windows. I initially thought the problem may be due to the battery not being charged fully, but later I found that battery charge is not the problem, as the phone not booting became more and more common even with a fully charged battery. Even when I managed to get the phone started after repeated and frustrating soft resets, I started to get corrupt PIM data, like the contacts and calendar applications not starting up. ALso strange folders with name y? and y?? appeared in the phone memory. THese folders could be deleted only with Resco Explorer. Also the bluetooth was not working properly, that is when I turn it on using the comm manager, the blue tooth icon gets activated but actually no bluetooth is turned on. Later after a soft reset, bluetooth turns on but now the icon in comm manager is not activated. I did a hard reset a couple of times thinking that this problem will be rectified, but all the problems continued.
Going through the forum i read some where that JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship was one of the most stable roms for this phone, so I set about flashing this rom. I used ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID and the update went on till 95 % when it showed error 326. I tried again, with the same result. I later flashed RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship back, and the phone is working as before.
NOw I would like to get the following problems corrected
1. Phone getting stuck at ipl, spl, gsm screen
2. Proper working of bluetooth as I would like to use it with my BLueant Supertooth II
WHat will be the correct these prolems ? will the imate rom correct these problems, if so how am I to go about loading it ? or is there a better one than what I am having now ? or is it a HARDWARE problem ?
I am very sorry for this extremely long post, but I felt if I said all my problems in one post, I would get better response.
PLease help....
You should have stayed with the RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship ROM from the beginning, since it's the best and also latest official Prophet ROM. It's a 2.20 ROM which is the latest available.

I am still with that ROM. It is with this ROM that my prophet is causing the above problems.
Can you guys advice me how to load JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship rom with out this error 326 showing up ?
can someone please help me figure out what the deal is with my phone, it's been working great minus the fact it wont work with activesycn anymore, but today i was at my friends using wifi and surfing the net and using Remote Desktop and it locked up, i rebooted it with the reset button and it sits at the Windows Mobile splash screen, for 45+mins, i havent waiting longer than that, i noticed if i pull the battery, sim, SD out and let it sit, put it all back together, press all the buttons, turn it back on and press buttons while is coming on, itll come on, dont know why i have to press stuff lol but its working, and its done this twice, if my activesync worked i'd re-flash it but this rom hasnt been too bad for me, it's one of the earlier Faria releases of wm6. anyone know what would cause it to freeze up during boot and work Sometimes? or a way to make it boot up for sure w/o doing a hard reset.
i noticed it will boot up if i press some buttons during the first/second splash screen, the HTC one and the one with the version numbers, if the keyboard lights up i know its gunna boot successfully. this is crazy. and annoying.
You might try flashing with Shelltool. I'e never done that but it seems to work.
Have you tried to do a hard reset on it? No flash is required. Also for ActiveSync, go to Start > Settings > Connections > USB to PC and uncheck (or check) the box there and see if ActiveSync starts working for you.
And you can always flash directly to the bootloader (no activesync required) if thats what you want to do. Just turn off the phone, then hold the camera button and turn the phone back on. As long as you see USB above the left softkey you are good to go for flashing a different rom onto your phone. I would strongly suggest if you do this to flash back to an official ROM first (T-Mobile 2.26 is a good one to use) and then flash a custom rom of your choice.
No idea why this would have started, but my guess is something you have recently added has a conflict on your phone. You might want to go to remove programs and remove the last couple of things. Then grab a trial copy of MemMaid and run that to clean up bad registry entries and such. See if the problem goes away.
Good luck!
Ah.. See, I want to flash really bad and try something with the new HTC Touch on it, there are so many roms lol, i don't even know where i saved the file for the one im using now.. but the only problem is, i cannot get the damn thing to sync with activesync, i've tried reinstalling it and unchecking the other box on the phone, no go. i'm sure there is no other way to back everything up is there? :-( i'll try memmaid too just incase that can fix the registry. any specific rom you recommend with HTC Touch ? i text A LOT with my phone so i'm mainly only worried about texting and taking pictures, but i've got the UK rom to install, i heard that is better than my current one.

I don't care for the Touch stuff (I assume you are talking the Cube), so I really can't comment on that. You'll have to try that yourself.
Use PIM Backup to backup your SMS, MMS, Calendar, contacts and more to your SD card. You could install it by downloading it directly to your phone (its just a zip file with the exe that you run).
As I said, you can upgrade without activesync. Just go to the bootloader as I described.
Hello all,
A simple question.
How can one tell what kind of a unit he has, is it WWE or is it ASIA or maybe another, I have bought my unit 2nd hand and since then had problems with the softwares and radio roms.
I have used WWE rom, and I just can not get all my contacts in, I have used ASIA and for a few days all was working fine, till something happens I reset the unit and either data is lost or the radio has no signal etc.
Another question, is it possible to stop the Automatic Customization after a hard reset???
Your help would be much appreciated.
WWE or Asia depends on installed ROM. Type can be Polaris 100 or Polaris 200, AFAIK, and is visible during hard reset.
What ROM are you using now? Looks like trouble with ROM or bad device.
Customization can be stopped, if I remember correctly, but you should check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355277&highlight=Polaris+tips+tricks
Hi,
Many thanks.
For the moment I am using a cooked rom Khanx 1.6 Pro.
I was really fed up with the Original Rom as I said it was fine for a few days, working smoothly, even backups by SPB were fine, and suddenly one day the unit froze and I had to reset after the rest nothing worked, all data lost.
Even after Hardreseting I was having problems with 'VDDemon' each time, only after re-installing the rom for a few times I was able to go back to working with it.
I mainly use the unit for telephone (ofcourse), mail, notes and sms.
By the way when I enter bootloader, I can see POLA100 MFG, and the SPL-2.20.Olinex, CPLD-2.
And what I meant about the Automatic ..., when you hard reset the unit you get a windows saying that in 3 seconds and automatic instal is beginning, how can one stop this instal????????
So really I am not even having fun with it at all.
OK, Pola 100 is here too, but SPL is original HTC.
Could you try device for few days with "bare" ROM, meaning no other software installed? Maybe it's software incompatibility.
For stoping customization check thread I mentioned, think it's described there. But I might be wrong, it could be some another thread. In any case, I remember reading about it here and a way how it can be stopped.
My Polaris is stable as stable Windows device can be...

Hi,
My girlfriend recently bought an XDA Orbit 2 which has WM 6.5 install on it.
Everything else on the phone works perfectly and without issue but she is unable to make phone calls correctly;
The phone will be able to dial out and establish a connection but no sound can be heard by either party even though both phones say the connection is there.
This can be resolved by a hard reset, however this only last for about 10-20 minutes before we lose all sound once again.
Can anyone shed some light onto this for me?
One thing that always screws up phone calls is the radio on the phone it should be a 1.59.xx.xx to check it go to start => setting => system => Phone Information => Software Information. Will find it there also while you are there what 6.5 rom is she running on it as if its not a stable one it may be worth updating it...
Should the .xx.xx be anything in particular or just stay as .xx.xx?
anything in particular i use the stock one (with the default rom) which is .42.15 any should do the job though...
Ok the radio on it is 1.58.25.14 which im asuming is wrong. How do I change it?
This a custom flash thingy ma bob wont hard reset the phone when you flash it => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=376119
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426203
Is the radio i am using and imo the best for signal/ battery life.
How to do it.
1.Download both
2. Put the nbh file in the same directory as the custom ruu
3. Put the phone into bootloader (Start + OK + Reset whole on bottom, hold the buttons until it show a red green white blue screen)
4. plug it in to computer (let the drivers fully install)
5. Start up the Polaris_Custom_ruu.exe
6. Follow the instructions, shouldnt take too long to go through and flash
7. it will reset and you will have a nice shiny new radio and hopefully no more call problems.
All i will say now is what an idiot for selling the phone in that state... (may actually be the reason it was sold lol)
Im going to sound ike a total idiot now but I have no idea what ruu is or nbh or where to put it or what a bootloader is.
Could you possibly put it in moron speech Chris?
LOL well honestly i thought that i had already done that....
Have a look at the files that you download and then it will be explained.
The RUU is the thing that will do the flashing to the device
The nbh files contains the information of you download the stuff and follow the instructions you will have the result that you want honestly i cant think of a simpler way of doing it
Ive also put 2 screenshots to try to help you (one has a different radio but you get the idea...)
Also give this a read but i feel it may confuse you more..

Its a noobs guide to flashing and has all of the info that you need to have.
It does give one point that it has to have SPL-2.20.Olinex on the screen but i would guess this is there as you already have 6.5 on the phone.
Awesome, thanks chris I will get it done tonight after work and let you know how it goes, if it fails I have no doubt I will be back complaining about my lack of phone savvy.
Hey Chris, just to let you know that it worked perfectly, thank you for your help it was much appricated.
No worries glad that it worked as if it didnt then i would be out of ideas...
Hey guys, I have trouble going into the message screen on my touch pro. Every other part of the phone works fine. But if I touch the screen to access the message section, it wont respond. Or if I touch the all messages area of the screen, it will light up but the screen wont switch over. pretty much every other part of the phone works except accessing the message/sms part. i still can receive incoming texts but i have no way of replying it!
I have tried soft reset and it would not help either.
This problem appeared out of nowhere.
my touch pro is unlocked, ROM version is 5.05.401.1 WWE, using windows mobile 6.1
From your report, it sounds like something in the software is crashing. I had something similar and the only way I could figure was to re-flash it (involves losing everything loaded on your phone, without a backup) with the ROM I wanted. There may be another way but for the lack of experience with a stock ROM and your specific situation, it is difficult to help you troubleshoot.
should I go for a hard reset?
or should I reinstall a new ROM? if this is the case, can you kindly tell me how to do it?
all my contacts are saved on my sim card so im not too worried about losing those infos.
I suppose it wouldn't hurt anything to try the hard reset first. Also, if there was anything added/installed and wasn't a part of the stock ROM, it is likely you will lose it such as programs, games, etc. Let me know if you'd like to try your hand at flashing a custom ROM, if the hard reset doesn't work.
If you aren't comfortable with either of these, it might help to give it a few days to see if anyone else chimes in...
