Crashed HTC Touch Diamond 2

Hi,
After installing Package_Customization.CAB my phone wont start, so now how do i fix this, any ideas?
//Danne

What do you mean by "won't start"? It does not load at all, does it crash when loading OS (meanwhile windows logo on the screen) or what?

After the text "Touch Diamond" and some version stuf in red text i lower right, the screen turns black but with some baclight is stil there, but then nothing hapen, no windows no nothing. //Danne

OK, you need the memory card reader to insert your SD card in, then insert the reader to usb connector in your PC, then choose some ROM at XDA and copy topaimg.nbh to SD card. Boot into bootloader and flash your device.

Ok, i just started the Phone with lower volume button pushed at the same time i powerd up, and i just started the "ROMUpdateUtility" and it is flashing right now.
Thanks any way.
//DAnne

Hope it's gonna work. Break a leg

It worked!

PC doesn't recognize (see) my phone

Hello,
I have a problem, when I connect my phone with the USB cable to my computer, it doesn't do anything. He don't recognize the phone, doesn't make any connection nor see the SD card.
I've already tried to clear the box: Enable faster data synchronization, and tried to choose Disk Drive (Faster file transfer), it all doesn't do anything.
Tried different PC's, with WMC and Active Sync 4.5, with different OS's.
The cable isn't broker or something because the only thing that happens when I connect the phone with my PC is that the orange light (battery charge) is on.
I've installed Shadowline ROM, but it did work with that rom (active sync and disk transfer).
I think it is a problem of the ROM tho, so is there any way to flash my ROM without using a PC?
Answers would be realy appreciated.
Thank you.

You can flash from the storage card, just rename the .nbh file to TOPAIMG.nbh and put on the root of your storage card, go to bootloader mode and it will flash.
Your cable can be bad and still charge. I would try a different cable.
Also try deleteing the partnership in Active Sync and try to reestablish it.
I assume you hard reset after you flashed the ROM.
I do not think its a ROM issue.

Ok thanks for your reply.
I did what you sad but when I loaded the TOPAIMG.nbh in the bootloader, it came up with an error and freezes on: Loading ...
When I restarted it It Only shows:

And then he goes to the white screen with the blue letters saying: Loading...
(I waited many times, one time for 2 hours but nothing happend).
When I put out my SD-card and the battery and connect the phone with the USB (my pc still don't see recognize anything) it will boot to the exact same screen as I typed here above but then he stays at that one.
I can't do anything, already tried to hard reset him but that also didn't work.
It feels like im pretty screwed..
Please help!

Maybe you have a problem with the mini USB.
Happen to me with Touch HD.
If so take it to a reppair shop.

Well, I borrowed and USB cable from my friend and now he indeed makes an connection. But no active sync connection. I also can't see my SD card in My Computer. He still only shows the screen that I typed here above, but then under in the white area a little text: USB
What do I have to do next to fix it,
please help
thanks

I am concerned that you screen shot shows SPL 1.83.00, but you have flashed Shadowline's ROM.
It should say SPL: 1.83.00Olinex which would mean you have HSPL installed which is absolutely required to flash a custom ROM.
Did you have that ROM operational and just couldn't sync, or has the device not worked since you flashed this ROM?

Yes, I had the shadowline ROM, and it al worked good. I also could connect my mobile to my pc with the USB cable.
I don't know what happend, I didn't install any other program or something else but I suddently couldn't connect my mobile phone to my pc anymore.
But I wanted another ROM because I noticed that the Shadowline ROM feld a little bit laggy, so I found out that you can do that by your booting with the SD card.
And I know that you have to install hardSPL first, so I downloaded that one from the big post in this ROM forum from Topaz.
Booted with the SD card, and then when I started to flash the ROM he gave an error and now I have to problem that I can't do anything anymore.

I guess my point was if you had Shadowlines ROM, you were already HSPL'd, no need to do again.
Hard reset the phone and try to install ROM from SD.

Hi,
i had once the same problem. No connection with PC anywhere. I couldnt do nothing with that and was quite desperate about that.
But once suddenly it came to work again. I am not sure what made it work again but the only thing I can guess was that I took out and gave back the memory card with the turned on phone. Since then I have never had this problem again.
I wish you that this taking out of memory card helped you too.

Well, If I'm hard resetting, the only thing he does is show the percentages, then he says completed, then he reboot en I'm back at the tri-color screen again.
And I can't enter the bootloader, so I also can't install the ROM from the Sd-card.
And taking out the memory card while the phone is on also dont work
Any other options what maby will work?

Just some points;
Make sure the .nbh file is named excatly TOPAIMG.nbh paying attention to the case of the letters.
When you attempt to go into Bootloader, Holding Voume Down and Power buttons at the same time when phone is off, what screen appears?

[Q] my handset doesn´t recognize sd apps
I had the same problem as well, so I deactivated and reactivated the SD card from the phone, actually I cant take out the sd with the turned on phone. It worked once, but it happened again so i tried to the same but know the deactivate function in settings doesnt worked. Now i dont know what to do. if anyone could help me i would be very thankful.
My handset is a xperia x10 with 2.1 generic flashed bb 2.1.54, and 2.2 wolbreak gingerbread rom.

Have you tried to re-install the rom or install another?
Can transfer to phone via blue tooth or network considering your SD card isn't working.

try a hard reset mate might do the trick, it will just reset the phone to when the ROM was first put on the phone, restart the device before it boots push down volume up & down at the same time just follow instructions

i also got this problem with my memory card

phone issue?

Try bringing up MAGLDR by turn your HD2 off and then turn it back on but keep the power(end) button down and MAGLDR will come up then use hour volume up and down button to to scroll through the options. There is a recovery option select it and it will do what is equal to a hard reset of the Andriod on your phone. If this does not work try reflashing the Andriod ROM if still no Chang try another Andriod ROM. If still no dice out your Pbone into bootloader by turning it off and then teurning it back on but hold the volume down button when you tap the power button and keep holing it down until bootloader comes up once it is up plug your USB ito the computer and phone and wait until serial changes to USB in the white bar at the bottom of the screen and then flash a custom Windows Mobile ROM to your HD2. I say custom cause a official rom will wipe MAGLDR from your phone. Do not flash a official rom, especially don't flash a official ROM from your SD card as it will take wipe MAGLDR and revert your HSPL to SPL and then you will be back to complete stick and square one.

[Q] Cotulla's stock build on HD2 PROBLEM !

Ok so I bought a phone from ebay and it had the NAND Android by Cotulla built. It came with a google account and I was trying to delete it by using this method from another forum:
"Basically this was done on a rooted phone. We used the program called Root Explorer and navigated to /system/framework. Make sure that is mounted r/w and not r/o (read write vs read only). Rename framework-res.apk > framework-res.apk.bak. You might get an error after this (force close). Just go ahead and force close it. Immediately rename it back to framework-res.apk. Reboot and you're done. Enter your new main Google account. "
I rooted this phone with z4root and it worked. And thats how i got access to the files and was able to rename the file. (the reason I rooted the phone because apperantly the catulla build doesnt require root access, so you have to do it on your own)
I got to the part were I got an error and I force closed it and it kicked me out of root explorer. And I couldnt get back in to rename it back to framework-res.apk. So I rebooted my phone and it only gets as far as were the HTC with the white screen is loading but never loads the Android OS.
When I start my phone I hold down the power but and the down volume and takes me to the boot menu, it looks like this:
aMAGLDR V1.11
Build: Dec 31 2010 05:30:51
by Cotulla 2010
------------------------------
boot menu:
1. Boot AD SD
2. Boot AD NAND
3.USB MassStg
4. USB Flasher
5. USB TTY
6. AD Hardreset
7. Tetris
8. Services
9. Reset
10. PowerDown
So Im guessing I still have hope and it is not a brick (i dont know what exactly it means but it doesnt sound good.)
Like we say in the Marines, Im a boot to this. I serious am new to the flashing roms to the phone and messing with the framework or anything.
What do I need to do to get my phone working on NAND Android? Do I need any software installed on my computer? I hope someone can explain it to me barny style so I can fix my phone. Thanks !!
I saw on another thread on this site that the catulla built is not the most popular. So is there a way to go from where im at (point stuck in my phone to flashing thru MGLDR/CWM or CLK/CWM ?) which I have no idea how to do that either.... and what do I need to do?
Thanks to anyone that wants to spent the time to help me.
-Josue

That was the first NAND rom released when cotulla released magldr.(the black screen with menu, , you get there by holding power down when you start the phone)
Thing is, it hasnt been updated or anything, it was just a proof release, and teh method it is flashed doesnt create the racovery partition needed by the CWM(clockworkmod, clockwork recovery, clockwork) method that most current roms use.
So, firstly, go get the NAND tootlkit , phone into bootloader, connect usb, (the word serial on phone screen changes to USB) in NAND toolkit click ;install magldr, since yours is out of date,, (wont need to do this again)
Then, pick a rom you want to flash, (many roms have two versions, magldr and cLK, get the magldr version for now, you can change if you like once you know what you're doing), somewhere in the first few posts of that roms thread will be instructions as to what system partition size you need.
When you know, put the phone into magldr menu, choose USB flashing, and then in the NAND tool click the size you want in the left, then click 'repartition'.
When its done, start the phone and hold power as the screen goes black, till you get the magldr menu, choose 8.AD recovery, this will start CWM which you can then use to 'install zip from sd card - choose zip' to flash the rom. (Assuming your rom was already on your sd card)
SD cards - most roms extend the internal storage memory by using an EXT partition on the sd card, so its worth setting one up before you start. In CWM - advanced - repartition you can have it create an ext partition for you. This WILL format the whole card, so back up first. (Choose 0 for swap, you can always change it later)
Read everything HERE and HERE and take your time.

Ok I had Dowloaded the NAND toolkit like 2 hrs ago but I kinda have the idea how to use it b/c I had read the entire write up. I think for some reason my computer is not picking up my phone, even though it was befor I messed it up. So I cannot get pass the first step of insatlling the updated magldr. I do the step you told me to but nothing happenes to the phone. I dont see were the word serial on phone screen changes to USB....?
OK so I have my phone in the Bootmenu (Im guessing thats what everyone calls the bootloader?). I plug it in, and open the toolkit. I click install MAGLDR, I go all the way to the step were it says verifying the information on you PDA phone...please wait...
-ERROR[260]: CONNNECTION
And it tells me make sure your phone is connected to computer. And it is. I have used 3 different cables to connect the phone to the computer. Do I have to select something from the bootmenu, or something Im missing?
One of the step is to "hold volum down buttom and power button till you see screen with three colors." But I never get to the point, im just at the boot menu.
I know my phone is connecting because it does the buzzing noice like when you plug/unplug any usb. And in the bootmenu I choose USB Mass Storage mode and it brings up my sd card on my computer. Where can the connection problem be?
Thanks for helping me with my problem.

no, bootmenu is the black screen, magldr, , you want the phones actual bootloader, , , power off, press, hold, and keep holding voldown, tap and release power, keep holding voldown till coloured screen appears. thats bootloader.

amazingly I got to that part (bootlaoder). Little by little...
Next problem: Im at the bootlaoder and have "SERIAL" but it never changes to USB even though the computer is pick up the connection. And I get the same error message. Is there a reason why "Serial" dont change to "USB" eventhough it is pluged in correctly to the computer and it sounds like the computer picks it up?
Thanks for being patient with me and walking mw through the steps..
Update: I restarted my computer and it changed from "Serial" to "USB" Which is great BUT I do the steps and cant get pass the first one (STILL). The program is not picking up the phone for some reason...

Are you sure your USB cable is a power/data and not just a power cable? Not all USB cables do both.

also if u have active sync or the vista/win7 version turn off USB connections in that.
try a different USB port preferably on the back of the PC.

I have 3 usb cable, one of those is the one for my external hard drive. So I know that one should because data passes through it. I know its not the cable, and its not like I can go out and buy another one because Im in Afghanistan.
I dont not have Active Sync on my computer. I have windows 7 on my computer but I have no ports because it a laptop. I just took out another laptop out of the box, hoping I was just my computer. When I tried it and installed HD2 toolkit it also didnt work. The only way I can get the theword Serial to change is when Im in bootloader and nothing happend, I leave it pluged in, then I restart the computer. As soon as the computer start to reboot, the word changes to USB. So I figured it was going to work. So I go back to tool kit and it says the same problem: ERROR[260]: CONNECTION.
Both laptops are windows 7 running on 64bit. I dont know if it would make a difference running on a 32bit. In the bootloader this is what comes up:
PB81120 HX-B3
SPL-2.08.HSPL G8 XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x50
When I did plug it inthe first time to the new laptop, something popped up, saying something about not being able to install driver, driver not installed.

Hi,
If you are running Windows 7, you need to have WMDC (Google it) for the computer to recognise the phone.It contains the drivers required.
Then you should be able to install everything.

WOW that worked. Thats exactly what I needed (WMDC). Thanks alot. I was able to go from MAGLDR V1.11 to V1.3, using the HD2 Toolkit and installed 150mb b/c I plan to flash the Pongster's CM7 rom. Someone is helping in PM. I still have no idea how to flash that rom. But could not have gotten this far with out yalls help. Thanks, yall are some really smart people. Im still learning how to do this flashing and stuff.
UPDATE: I just installed Pongster's CM7 rom. It seems amazing!! Thanks for everyone help.
Question: My phone was unlocked prior to this happening. But no i inserted my sim card and it has no signal. Does the phone lock up again after doing this process? I would much of a problem if I was state side b/c I use T-Mobile but Im in Afghanistan and use a local sim and can make calls. Is there a way to unlock it, I paid someone last time to unlock my last HD2 but I dont want to do it again.
Thanks
-Josue

no, once unlocked they stay unlocked, so must be a different issue.

I feel stupid but ill just say it. I put in the similar card in wrong that's why it wasn't. Reading it. I have signal now. Everything seems to work now. But I'm going to update the radio. But I have no idea what's radio is or what its used for...can anyone answer the question for me?

Hi,
Generally the best radio for Android is:
Radio Leo 2.15.50.14.

You can check which radio version you have in:

i can't turn on my hd2

For several days I get tired of uploading windows 7 on your phone hd2. The first time everything went smoothly, but broken marketplace forced me to install another rom ... and after that began to complications. Reinstalling WP7 ran smoothly, unfortunately after the restart, the phone hung up on the screen where you had to enter the PIN code, the screen does not respond to touch. After reset, the message began to appear that the memory card does not work and could not turn on the system. Again I tried to upload the new rom, but unfortunately it did not help ... Later I was able to upload back android nand and somehow everything worked. Today I made another attempt to install WP7, unfortunately, only worsened his situation, which is as follows:
The phone will not even turn on, just as I plug it into usb. MAGLDR loads seamlessly, this 4-color screen as well. Unfortunately, the system loads until the htc logo appears and some animation, after that the phone automatically resets and so on.

Check and make sure you do not have a bent battery pin as a bent battery pin has been known to cause the HD2 to boot loop like you are describing.
If you do not have a bent battery pin, then I suggest you run a Task 29 and then re install MAGLDR then reflash your WP7 ROM. Also it might help if you do a total reformat of your SD card then try to boot your device with a freshly formated SD card. I know I know WP7 formats your card anyway on first boot but hey it could help. If you still have troubles after that I suggest you get a new SD card and try that. You see if your SD card does not work WP7 will not boot cause it uses the SD card as the internal memory for the device.

I don't know how, but now everything is working! I didn't do enything! Just plug usb cable, and system was loaded! I disconnect cable and it still working?!

Yes, now i can restart the phone, and everything works properly. I don't know how it is possible..? For now I stay with android, I will wait for better version of wp7 rom for hd2.
