Think I have solved it. Did a repair install of activesync. Seems to have installed.

Have to reboot phone now, and try again.

PS do you have a dump of the stock t-mobile rom Paul?

[mattie01]

i am very tempted by this. but i only got the phone today. anyone have any ideas of backing up the t-mob rom?

[mattie01]

ok well the first part appers to be done i went thou loading hard spl on the phone. so i'll just give it a bit till i can grab a t-mob rom so i have something to revert back to.

[redblackred]

I did the HardSPL, all correct, then when i was installing the ROM its keeps going to ERROR on 0% about 4 mins in. I don't know why, I'm doing as it says, anyone know whats up?

I've never installed a ROM on it before, so it was simply doing the hard spl on the stock ROM then installing the TLR 3 ROM.

[rupert_hollom]

I too am interested in putting TLR v3 onto my Diamond, but before I start is the original Orange ROM available anywhere in case I need to restore back to that. I have details of the original SPL so can re-flash that, but can't find the ROM. I have read stuff about backing up the ROM myself, but just wanted to see if it was available first before trying to back it up myself.

TLR3 is running fine on my Diamond! the whole phone seams to be more responsive now

I would like to see the 'slide' animation put back into manilla though

Is that when you go between 'tabs' by swiping left and right? I would like those in as well as I think they look good...

[James]

yes, correct! I believe it was taken out to improve the speed..

[redblackred]

Anyone have an idea why its saying error everytime?

No sorry

What Hard-SPL did you install?

Are you on Vista?

I used the HardsPL listed in this thread, I also have Vista.
I just tried installing Dutty's Hybrid rom instead, thats gone to error too, 'cept this time I've got tri colour in recovery mode and its still freezing - hopes its not f******


Seems to be working now, I flashed it to verson 1.0 or something with JumpSPL. Now its working. Link

Hi,

Installed HardSPL (the one in the link) that went on fine.

Tried installing the new Rom, failed.

Tried it on both my Vista 64bit and 32bit , on the 32bit I had a brief error message saying that one of the windows services had crashed due to an un-expected error.

I was logged onto the Admin account on both computers.

Not sure if that will be any help to you.. will have to wait until I get to work tomorrow and use active sync on an XP machine to do it <_<

Current Orange Diamonds are using a stock HTC ROM, so flashing back isn't a problem- just go back to an original HTC ROM.

The only other thing you might need to do is to change the Splash1 and Splash2 screens back to the HTC Originals; not sure if anyone has specifically made these availiabe yet; I think the updated official HTC ROM has been posted somewhere- this would have the HTC Splash screens.

0% Flash Error: This is due to using the wrong version of HardSPL; Olinex have made 2 versions of HSPL. One is 'signed' (V.130) and one 'unsigned' (V1.40); the signed version can only load signed versions of a new ROM, whereas the unsigned vesion can load any ROM.

The 1st post here does point to the unsigned version, so it should have worked; the TLR3 ROM is now also availiable as an Olinex Signed version for use with SPL 1.3

Normal flashing rules apply- no screensave/power save on PC, and no connecting through a USB hub

Hi,

Yep was indeed me being a newbie (I think, i've just done it from work with Xp but i assume it was me as this is my first ever winmo phone)

Downloaded the signed version and its now installed and booted.

This is indeed a very awesome phone, happy to get rid of the nasty pinkness though.

One thing, has anyone else got a very thin green strip on the top of the screen? Any ideas on how to get rid of it, or is that just something thats normal?

That's Batti, the battery monitor, it'll slide down to yellow then red as you use the phone.

You can uninstall it in the usual way if you wish though.

[Shizuma]

Arr! Thanks

[redblackred]

I sorted it all in the end. I needed to use use a different SPL. Works a treat. I'm loving Batti Meter. Only bug(?) I can see is sometimes when I want to end a call, the phone sort of throws a hissie fit - freezes for a second or 2 then its fine.
