Now that no2chem has a diamond, I'm sure we'll see nueSPL for the diamond in the near future, which will allow you to unlock/relock from internal storage. It's just a matter of time..

okay now first you need to get your .nbh file on your root directory of the internal storage.

I want to flash from the Internal memory, but i don't understand what you meant bye "root directory" pls explain

[cornelious2]

root directory means the lowest level in a file system so it would be /internal storage and not in any folder

eg the root of the c drive on your computer is C:\

I also had to include holding the back button or else it wouldn't work. Just flashed juciy 2.5 from internal storage!

I'm Telus and thanks for the heads up with the back button! I was getting frustrated before when it went into bootloader and just sat there.

even faster, it takes me but a minute or two to flash my phone

I didn't try without the back ey but i can confirm it does work WITH the back key on my Sprint phone

Posted this in another thread, thought it was relevant here too:

There are basically three ways to flash your diamond.
1. Run the RUU with your phone booted (running WM).
2. Run the RUU with your phone in bootloader.
3. Press Power + VolDwn + Back + Reset with a ROM named DIAMIMG.nbh in the root of the Internal Storage.

1 allows things like a sSPL to be run first to allow a hSPL to be applied.
1 requires at least 50% battery life.
1 shows your current ROM version and the future ROM version.

2 has no battery requirement.
2 shows only future ROM version.

3 should have no battery requirement
3 does not show any versions, but does show what aspects are included in the ROM (will only say OS since we only flash Operating System ROMs here really)
3 can be done anywhere as long as the image is on the device (but if it's just the one you already have on there, it would make more sense to do a Hard Reset).

yea I like having multiple roms on my phone and swaping them as i see fit, usually I keep stock, the current rom im using, and any rom I want to test.
