Diamond Died, RIP
I have a question. Last night my Diamond died and nothing I did could revive it. It boots to the Windows Mobile start screen (the green one) and freezes there. I cannot even hard reset. Good thing for warranties.
My question is, I have a recent backup but I only back up the main memory. I have a bunch of apps installed to the internal 4GB storage. What happens to those apps if I restore my backup? Basically what I'm wondering is if you install an app to the internal storage does it place nay files in the main memory? The last thing I want to do is restore partial apps and have a total file mess on my new device when it comes. |

This happened to me last month, here is what fixed it, do each step in order: Turn off the phone Press and hold volume down button Press and hold center circle button Press and hold Power button keep holding in all 3 buttons until you get the white hard reset message where it tells you to hit volume up button to hard reset (your 4gb internal storage will not be erased) see if that works for you |

Thanks all for the input. I did remove the battery for about 10 minutes ro so and still no luck.
As for the apps on internal storage. To be honest I cannot even remember which ones I installed there. I usually try to install to the internal storage unless the app requires it to go into the main memory. I think I may just start over fresh since i don't want to cripple the replacement. I had a feeling that something was placed into main memory regardless of where you install. I'm assuming I'll just get broken link messages for the missing apps, correct. |

I think the culprit may have been some bogus Sprite backup files. every time it tried to restore those backups the device would crash. Did the reset and starting to install from scratch. What a pain, so much for backup software.

Also remember some times hardreset losing the internal storage. When that happens you need to format the storage via the computer... so if you're trying to restore and there is no internal storage card you'll run low on memory. There is also a fix available on HTC site.
