If you have a Verizon diamond, please help us out. It has to be a Verizon Diamond since they are different from any other Diamond. This will also be a step towards customizing the Verizon Diamond as well. What we need is a dump of the stock Verizon Diamond ROM. Here is how to do it -
(pulled from the Unlocking, Relocking, Flashing thread)

Dump My ROM:

1. Download Dump My ROM.
2. Connect your phone to your computer!
3. Transfer EnableRapi.cab to your phone and click on it to install it.
This step may or may not be needed, so you can skip it, but if this doesn't work, you'll have to come back and do it.
4. With your phone still connected, run Partition Addresses.bat.
5. A File named Partition.Addresses.txt should be created containing some very important information.
Here is what this file should look like:
code:

Copying \itsutils.dll to WCE:\windows\itsutils.dll
216.00M (0xd800000) FLASHDR
|           3.12M (Address1) Part00
|           4.13M (Address2) Part01
|         119.63M (Address3) Part02
|          89.13M (Address4) Part03
  3.75G (0xf0000000) DSK8:
|           3.75G (0xf0000000) PART00
STRG handles: 
handle#0 ce810c7a   3.75G (0xf0000000)
handle#1 afee0026  89.13M (0x5920000)
handle#2 6ff807fa 119.63M (0x77a0000)
handle#3 aff807d6   4.13M (0x420000)
handle#4 cff806ae   3.12M (0x31f000)
disk ce810c7a

disk afee0026
0 partitions, 0 binary partitions
customerid=00000000 uniqueid= 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
disk 6ff807fa

customerid=00000000 uniqueid= 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
disk aff807d6
0 partitions, 0 binary partitions
customerid=00000000 uniqueid= 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
disk cff806ae
0 partitions, 0 binary partitions
customerid=00000000 uniqueid= 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

Notice the highlighted four addresses. These are what you need to continue.
Once you have these, you need to have some basic text editing skills.
6. Right click on Dump My Phone.bat and click edit.
You should now see a file that looks like this:
code:

@Echo off
Title Dump My Phone
REM pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part00 0 Address1 Part00.raw
    pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part01 0 Address2 Part01.raw
    pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part02 0 Address3 Part02.raw
REM pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part03 0 Address4 Part03.raw
pause
echo on

Again notice the four highlighted addresses.
7. Replace the addresses in Dump My Phone.bat with those from Partition.Addresses.txt.
8. Save this newly edited file.
9. Run Dump My Phone.bat.
This step will take quite a while (as it has to transfer the data from your phone).
Once it is done, you should have two files: Part01.raw and Part02.raw.
10. RAR these files, and upload them somewhere (megaupload is nice, or the ftp here).
11. Let us know!

Hot off the press! Fresh from a hard-reset.

I had a Touch Pro just recently then it went all wonky. Verizon was exchanging the phone for me but sent me a Touch Diamond by mistake. I contacted them and they said they were out of warranty replacements for the touch pro and that I'd have to wait for a new shipment. Well, I needed my phone sooner than later so I decided to just accept the Diamond but I told them to credit my account the discrepancy in price between the two. They were happy to oblige. I kinda miss the keyboard, the LED flash, and the extra ROM memory, but I tell ya, this little guy seems to have much better call quality, it feels a great deal faster and the graphics much smoother.

Now if we can only make up a 6.5 ROM for it *wink, wink* ^__^

Hope this helps you guys!

Good work erik. Try putting a few different SIPs on your phone like TouchPal, FingerKeyboard, EZInput, and Meridh's input that I forget the name of and see which one you like the best.

awesome!!

Any news on the Verizon Diamond ROM? I am very anxious. Anything I can do to help? Thanks, guys.

Once it is done, you should have two files: Part01.raw and Part02.raw.

How can I use these "RAW" files and make them into a STOCK ROM that I can use the RUU executable (nbh) to place the SHIP rom back on my VZW Diamond? Basically I want a fallback so that I can do a little testing but I never worked with RAW files...

Thanks

I did that and have a complete stock ROM you can use. It will be defaulted to a 16 Meg page pool and it will be un locked but otherwise identical.

I like the nwe VZW TF32D skin. I am going to grab that for my kitchen ;c) Look at the screen shot, the color matches the color of my sprint diamond.

Just need to figure out how to remvoe the word VZW. Anyone know what manila file that is off th top of your head?

I also have a stock "kitchen" that you can have. Very basic, no options 100% VZW stock. Its just basically the stock XIP already page pool modified and unlocked, set to 16 megs, Stock SYS and stock OEM folder.
