I tried using Caulkins Kitchen, and I think I made a boo boo

nuzzle · #1 (**permalink**) 01-19-2009, 05:37 PM

I don't know if this is the right place for this, so please move if its not. I have the Sprint Diamond, and I've unlocked it and have used a few roms successfully. I decided to give it a whirl with the "Calkulin's Diamond 21109 Kitchen v4.2"

Once I started flashing the phone with the rom I made, I got an error. When I re-booted, the screen stays at the Touch Diamond screen.

I did a hard reset, and it still stays at the Touch Diamond screen??

I tried to re-flash a different rom, and since the phone isnt 'connected' it cant do it...

Obviously I am pretty new to this, I thought I had it down but I guess not. So if anyone can help me outta this little jam I am in, I'd be thankful.

Have you tried putting the phone into boot loader manually?

Hold the power button on top, the volume down button on the side, and the back button on the front all down at the same time while resting the phone. you should get a rainbow screen.

So true!

I'm afraid to imagine the response if that question was posted on XDA. The silence would be deafning!

Ehh, I wouldnt say I havnt read. I've been reading as much as possible on this site for the last 3 weeks. I started reading up on things 2 weeks before I got the phone, and even more so now. I dont want you guys thinking this is my safety net, although it is nice to have a place with so much knowledge being shared. I've learned a ****load in the past few weeks and plan to learn a boatloat more. So thanks again for all the help
