Thanks a bunch for this info cornelious2, very helpful. I have a Mac at home, so flashing this way helps me quit messing around with my phone so much while at work where I use a PC.

you're a genius!!!...i wonder if there's a way to flash so that it won't hard reset the phone?...

anyway thanks for your hard work

You want to flash a completly different operation system onto your phone, and have it save your settings, files and customizations?

So all I do is download the rom I want... and unzip it onto desktop and only pull one file and put it into the internal storage? and change that one file to DIAMIMG.

right? Or do I unzip the whole file and pull everything into the internal storage.

just the .nbh file if its packaged it shoudl be called RUU_SIGNED.nbh that is the file with all the romy goodness the other files are just for your computer to talk to your phone and the bootloader. so you are correct just rename the RUU_SIGNED.nbh and rename it to DIAMIMG.nbh and put it on the internal storage(not in any folders just internal storage) and your good to go!

by the way, I got my touch pro yesterday, so if anyone else has any questions first post here, and then if I dont answer within about 24 hours pm me. (though weekends I might just not be around)

You do know that you can just flash a radio ROM and leave everything else as is, don't you? Hmmm.

I'm pretty sure my post says OS.
