Recently ran diamond unlocker on my phone to upgrade to hard spl and screen turned black and now wont turn on or anything, anyone have ideas or can shed any light would be greatly appreciated.
Is it a GMS or CDMA Diamond, what hard SPL did you use? Have you tried putting it into bootloader?
It is GSM (ORANGE network) but i accidently used a CDMA hard spl program called diamond unlocker
I found on ppc http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36062
now my diamond has no life in it at all.
THIS IS FOR CDMA DIAMONDS ONLY!
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A TELUS, SPRINT, ALLTEL OR BELL DIAMOND, DON'T DO THIS! man i think ur bricked i dont know but by the sounds of it wasnt for gsm fones try to take it back to were u bought it from
yeh i get that bricked feeling too will be sent back to orange, leason learned read everything. cheers though

Hi Folks, After trawling the wizard forums Im hitting a brick wall (GEDDIT??)
Story begins when we bought in 5 new Tytn's and recycling 2 existing wizard's (spl 2.xx rather than 2.xx.xxx from what I understand would have meant G4)
Our company decided to move from Vodafone to Orange (better deal yadda yadda). I have used Schaps wm6/Touch I for the 32bit Tytns and all is well. However, the g3 wizards refuse to show network settings so gprs and mail cannot be setup. I tried flashing to the wizard love rom which initially worked as a phone ok but this rom didnt utilize the direct push which is important to us. After trying another rom from here it froze at 99% and the update program said to reboot it and try again but it kept failing. When I arrived in work this morning its still sat here with the tricolour screen and the usb indication does work.
Is the phone fcuko'd or is there some sort of bootloader available that just writes rather than interrogates what is already installed? I have since tried reflashing it with the paradox and wizard love roms but its bailing out on me with the error 264. Apologies if im missing womething from the wiki but ive read and taken in so much yesterday and today I now feel like im reading german.
Qtek 9100
ipl 1.01
spl 2.17
If you need more info please just shout.
anyone else had this problem?
Hi guys,
I have recently purchased a Sprint HTC Mogul 6800 on ebay, so this PPC is pretty new to me. I want to know if there's anyway to change the phone settings to Bell or Fido with this phone I have (I am located in Toronto, Canada).
I thought by unlocking and reflashing a new ROM on the phone will solve by problem I have, but seems like this is not working...
FYI, the phone currently has the previous owner information right now, I don't know what to do anymore... =(
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Don
Sprint Mogul
First is Bell and FIDO CDMA or GSM since Sprint is CDMA. Secondly your not going to get very far changing info with out your MSL and that the code that allows you to program or reprogram the phone. You'll have to obtain that from Sprint.
Mogul
Alright I decided to try an answer my own questions. You could potentially use it on Bells network but FIDO is GSM. I also found this post on how to recover your MSL. I havent tried it since I have my MSL. Good Luck

Problem cant unlock phone
Well heres what I figured out for my Touch,
-In Vista the Windows Mobile Device Center allows me to browse and perform all tasks like as if there were no password
-In XP ActiveSync says the Device is locked and unlock it.
-After searching for a way to backup my phone so I can do a Hard Reset I found out that there should be a feature call Backup/Restore which was no where to be found in WMDC
(I also synced my Treo700wx and the feature didnt appeared for that phone either)
So, my question is whats the best way to backup everything because I do have access to the phones file through Vista. Thanks in advance!!! PLZ HELPP
use an app like spb backup or sprite backup

Yea but on the phone I am stuck at the lock screen, the only way I can access the phone files is through Windows Mobile Device Center in Vista. In XP it says to unlock it but I cant.
Where is the Sim Card to swap?
I have read the thread on the elf unlocker, touch unlocker, and many others. However, I haven't found anywhere where to swap the sim cards. Where is the Sim card located, I hope I am just being an idiot and it's right under my nose.
Can someone please tell me where the sim card is, and if they have successfully unlocked the Sprint Touch in the (USA)?
I spent a whole day on trying to figure this out, and still haven't. Wishing for a good semaritan to help walk me through. Thanks.
Ryan
Uhh dude, there is no simcard in the sprint version. Its CDMA instead of GPS.

Haha, you mean GSM. Everyone kinda has GPS and Rev. A on their mind. Soon we can whip out our Touch and use Google Maps with GPS!

Unlocking Sprint Touch Vogue w/ no SIM
Thanks for the reply. I shourtly found out there is no SIM Card, so to get straight to the point, is there any way to get the Touch Vogue to work on T-mobile (USA)'s network without having a SIM Card.
T-mobile said there is no way to use a phone on their network without a SIM Card.
Background: I had my T-mobile Dash stolen. Now thinking I could unlock it, I got a Sprint Touch from a friend who bought the I-Phone instead. Can I use it, or should I simply resell it?
Please help. Would anyone be kind enough to communicate via email for quicker response? [email protected]
can you unlock the sprint touch and
use it on verizon?? if so how do you do it??

Ryan, not quite sure how you mucked this up, but you did. There are two main cell network types in the USA. ATT and T-mo use GSM, which has SIM cards. Verizon and Sprint use CDMA.
You CANNOT move a CDMA phone to GSM and vice versa. They use different radio frequencies, so it would be like trying to listen to an AM station with an FM radio.

Short answer, no.
Long answer is that these networks are still locked. Verizon and Sprint are CDMA carriers. In other parts of the world (Korea), CDMA carriers have the equivalent of SIM cards. In those places you can just swap out the cards, and you're all set. A long time ago our carriers decided not to implement this functionality. As a result, Verizon and Sprint cannot swap phones.
In the future, you may be able to bring other phones on the Verizon network. There is an initiative in progress that should provide for a way to test and approve devices for use. This won't happen for another year or so, so don't hold your breath.
Rev A And Gps Work On Htc Touch For Sprint
i had to swap my original rom with a new one which gave me the ability to have rev a and gps working on my sprint touch mobile.. it works great and i love it.. never knew my phone was so functional... SO IF YOU HAVE HTC TOUCH THROUGH SPRINT... U HAVE GPS ON YOUR PHONE
Ok ive had the P3050 Vogue 100 touch for a while now.
I bought a used Sprint MP6900SP Vogu100 and kinda working - broken touch screen - everything else seems to work.
But my question is can i flash it with a telus rom?
I bought it so i can mess with the windows without wrecking mine.
Or is there a generic rom?
And another question is that it doesnt seem to be able to have a sim card put in, does this mean its locked to Sprint?
CDMA phones are locked to the provider, there is no way around it as the carriers register the Serial numbers and if it isn't in their system they won't add it for you.
As for roms, just grab the telus rom from the htc website, otherwise check the upgrades forum.
Should have done your homework re: switching it onto Telus.
Thanx for the info, tried searching "switching it onto Telus" but could not find anything.
I also bought a new touch screen and its not as clear as the original, do you know if it will clear up or will it stay that way?
And I put my touch screen on the Sprint and everything works on it but the Sprint will not accept anything bigger that a 512 mb microsd card the 1 gb card from my telus doesnt work in the Sprint either but worked in the Telus, is there a problem with the Sprint phones (and i flashed the latest Sprint rom on it)?
I bought a 8 gb microsd for my Telus and works fine.
Thanx D
Ok i think I fixed the microsd problem. - posted a new thread for that.
And i tried searching for fuzzy touch screen and cloudy digitizer and no luck.
Just got a nice used Jasjar/Universal. Has factory defaults. It won't connect to the same GSM carrier (AT&T) that my HTC Wizard does. Is there anything I can do, or am I stuck with an unusable phone?
Thanks
Must be a local problem of your Uni
It must work (if unlocked) on any part of the world using:
Dual-Mode UMTS/GSM
Tri-Band GSM/GPRS (900/1800/1900) + WCDMA (UMTS) (2100MHz)
That means no 3G in America but you´ll be able to make calls and use Edge
Said that you could try a hard reset, or changing radio and/or ROM
Instructions on my signature link
Hi there!
You were right, the phone did work. I'm not sure what happened.....all I did was charge up the phone overnight, and tried again in the morning. So, it was either -- the battery didn't have a full charge, or perhaps the SIM card wasn't seated firmly.
Anyway, it's working now - just made a couple calls, everything is good.
Any suggestions on what ROM to use for an upgrade? I used the "Touch Diamond" WM6.1 ROM for my HTC Wizard, so I'm kinda used to that... a lot of the ROM links you have, don't have many screenshots, so I'm not sure which ROM I'd be happiest with.
Thanks
Glad to know it worked
I always recommend Tomal ROM´s, go for 8.1 or 8.5.
