Alright so I was trying to update the rom on my phone to no avail, always the damn program (custom ruu.exe) came up on the last screen displaying error 262 (update error) which is VERY common.

So I find in multiple forums of people recommending a certain update of the diamond phone series, I dont know why the f^*( I tried it, halfway in the update the phone went dark, and now wont turn on AT ALL.

I try the soft reset, battery out for a while, reinstall active sync, try in different pc's (win7 64bit, xp 32bit) no hope so far.... Well the ONLY sign of life is when I plug the phone via usb cable to either PC there is a hardware detected under "Qualcomm CDMA technologies MSM"

I believe its some sort of diagnostic mode to access the phone, but I cannot find drivers ANYWHERE! Please folks help me out

is this thing done? is there hope?

that's not a brick
rename the ruu_signed.nbh file to RHODIMG.nbh
move to microsd card
flash away

tried that and nothing happens.

when i plug in the usb cord to pc it will detect as via usb cable to either PC there is a hardware detected under "Qualcomm CDMA technologies MSM" thats ALL that would happen... well that and ocassionaly it will get out of that usb mobe and just light up the charging light on the phone....

Its a brick, you flashed a SPL for a different device.

The diagnostic port its detecting is the PBL and you cant do anything with it.

From what I've gathered (from reading and from personal experience), if your TP2 won't turn on with a good battery, it's a brick. Yeah, a pretty simple exercise here. I had one that would also get recognized by my PC when connected via USB, but as noted by Mr. X, this is useless.

Door-stop, paper-weight? I got one too!
