l3arc0de · #1 (**permalink**) 06-27-2010, 11:53 AM

I just picked up a used Bell Diamond and the guy that had it changed the rom and add some software. Most of the stuff I don't like or need so I want to remove everything.

My question is, is there a way to "format" it and return it back to the way it was the day it was bought?

So basiclly the stock rom and nothing else.

Thanks in advance.

Will this effect my phones functionality? will I have to program my phone after the rom is installed?

is the phone activated on bell? if so, then you shouldn't need to do anything.

Yes its hooked up to the bell network now. I just want to start fresh and clear all the garbage out of the memory.

Thanks for your help

I agree with razor.

Flash the shipped rom and clear storage and format internal storage after you flash. Then you'll be back to the original setup.

unfortunately, there is no bell shipped rom available for the diamond. a shipped rom flashes the OS rom, radio rom, pri, prl and boot splash. the bell stock rom i gave him a link to is OS rom only.

Flashing with bell stock rom will work.

nope...no where. not even on conflipper's website. that's why there's no diamond bell radio also. so, if he has a non-bell radio on his phone, he's stuck with it.
