Hi my diamond wont boot up when i press start button nothing happens i have tryed putting the wall charger on it but nothing taking the battery out for a long time but nothing happens tryed resetting it soft and hard but nothing and my pc does not find the diamond what can a guy doo please anybody help me

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

Is that a CDMA Diamond or GSM? You could try putting it into bootloader and then reflashing your stock carrier rom.

Bootloader = VolumeDown + Power Button
Hard Reset = VolumeDown + OK + Power Button

Hi it´s a cdma diamond ive tryed soft and hard reset nothing happens and my pc does not detect me diamond

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

Can You ener the tri-color screen? (bootloader)
try holding down volume down key and the power button while you push the reset button with the stylus.
If that works you will be in a rainbow colored screen from there you can plug in the computer to flash a new rom. make sure its CDMA or GSM it is very important..
-if you want to restore the factory rom hold the power button, volume down key, the touch wheel button, and reset with stylus.. i know its awkward, but it works..
Are you sure that you unlocked your phone? the colored screen should sy unlocked on the top somewhere..
... like wmdunn said ...just tried to explain better

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

I can not enter the tri color screen and i have tried too reset the phone by pressing the buttons but nothing happens . I was flashing my diamond when everything went blank and been blank screen ever since :(

Could you possibly have a bad battery?
Were you unlocking/flashing your device before this happened? Did it just start this behavior randomly?

Try hooking it up to your charger for a few hours and see if it will charge up a little and then try some things. When you plug in the charger do you see any charging lights or any activity?

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

I tried that last nigth to charge left the phone four a few hours with charger on but nothing

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

My diamond is gsm and i flashed it with cdma rom :( what does that mean did i cook the phone

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

Yeah ... you're in trouble for sure ... maybe there is someone around here that might be able to help. If I were you, I would go over to xda developers and see if anyone there can help ... they are primarily gsm.

I was afraid that might be the case, when you first posted ... sorry, Bud.

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

You're fine as long as you did not use the CDMA unlocker on your phone. If you used the CDMA unlocker, then you are permanently bricked (from what I've read, not that I know from experience :)).

If you just flashed a CDMA ROM to your GSM-unlocked phone, then you are fine. Just pull the battery if the phone is not already off, put it back in, press+hold volume down, and press+hold power button until you get to the tri-color boot loader screen. Once there, flash a GSM Diamond ROM and you should be good to go.

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

#X%#*# nothing no tricolor screen , when the charger is on the phone the bottom half of the phone heats up but not the battery, does that mean anything :(

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

You didn't answer...did you unlock your phone with a GSM Diamond unlocker or CDMA Diamond unlocker and/or flash a CDMA ROM containing a radio? If the answer is yes to either of those, you pretty much just have a paper weight.

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

I went to this site http://gizmodo.com/5281397/how-to-in...e-65-right-now and tried to flash the phone unlocking i dont know what that is , but i went step by step but nothing worked so i tried somthing else and got probably a paperweigth

Well that guide is for gsm.
In that guide when it says installing bootloader that is the unlocking step which technically means you are flashing/installing a hard spl so you can flash a custom rom.
What rom did you flash?

That second one is the HSPL for the CDMA TouchPro. :(
I think that did it.
Pretty sure you're bricked. Sorry Bro. :angry7:

Re: Diamond p3700 wont boot up
 

I called my htc service here in iceland they sad wat i was trying was illegal , but he told me too bring the phone too him and would take a look at it for me too see if its mendable :)

Well, before you do, lets clear some things up for sure, because they weren't outlined very well in this thread:

1. Is it FOR SURE a CDMA or GSM? And did you use the wrong unlocker?
2. Does the little white ring of light come on when you plug it up?
3. Can you find your way to a bootloader screen?

In plain english, try to answer those. The GSM version is weird and has an even smaller battery and a jagged dark colored battery cover instead of the standard Reddish, smooth battery cover.

He flashed a CDMA unlocker on a GSM device and cannot get to the bootloader, he is bricked.

What you did is not illegal by any law I know of, it just violates your warranty/insurance and since you told them what you did you probably voided any claims, but you can take it to them and see what they say.

1: nothing is sure but i think i used a wrong rom cdma rom :(
2: No ligth comes on nothing happens completly dead
3: No i cant find my way too the bootloader screen :(
So i think the phone is on its way too be recycled
