Help needed , HTC Touch screen error!

Ok first of all a big hi to this great community (xda team) and users.
Im new to this stuff but im in need for a little help, and i hope someone is willing to help me.
I have HTC Touch and im having problems with it. Its broken now it doesn't work. Not to forget to mention the phone i own is chinese made, which means i think is not the original one (even it looks and acts like the real one).
After modifying some phone applications, by installing tweaks and applications i found on internet, i installed some modified Keypad application, and after using it a while, one day it stopped responding and instead of showing Number keys, it only showed black buttons. SO i tried to uninstall it and after successful uninstall i restarted the phone but it showed me the screen aligning thing and i did what was required it booted but was not working properly. so i did several reboots, and then even tried reseting it. after several tries im now stuck on screen error.
I uploaded two videos on youtube how the screen gets mixed and the other problem, hard reset won't work on my device.
Links to videos:

i would be very happy if anyone could tell me what to do with my device.
PS. Im newbie so i might need some simple instructions if possible.
Thanks in advance.

No one cant help???
I hope someone is willing to give me some instructions...please!!!
Best regards. Gjizaqin

Very strange.
I havent seen any so unhelpfull forum like this :-( im really sad.
I posted the thread asked for help, explained the thing in the best way i could, and no single reply even the one "we can't help" would be nice to see.

Update to my post:
Im writing this with idea of helping others and pointing people to right direction. After maby 1 month of hard exploring i repaired my htc touch (chinese clone)
The phone im using is also known as Elf0100.
So how i fixed the problem:
After trying many many times the standard Hard reset method (Send, stop keys pressed and presing soft reset button with stylus) this method doesn't work with chinese htc clones. So anyone out there having Chinese Htc clone, the right method for doing Hard Reset is: Hold Volume Up & Camera Key pressed, and press Reset button for about 3 seconds without releasing Volume up and camera buttons. After that you should get blue screen, and in the top screen will be shown "Boot loading, hard reset, or something like that im not very sure".
Anyways if you have your Windows mobile damaged (like the one i had), you can repair it with the following method:
1. Download the manufactured version of Windows (or maby this is called ROM) from this site.
2. Format your HTC memory card (Micro SD card), so it will be clean.
3. Move the update.img (you already downloaded from the site) to root directory of your Memory card.
4. Press Volume Up button on your htc and while keeping it pressed , press the reset button.
You should get the blue screen telling the update being downloaded. Wait for a while and it will tell that Update is successfull and your phone will be rebooted.
THis is it.
Although i didnt get any help from this forum, i know i might help others cause this is most frequent place regarding PPC.
Best regards to all.

Hi gjizaqin,
I feel sorry you lost valuable time looking for an answer to your problem (and found it alone !) but I think you are too hasty to blame this forum. I am myself quite new here and I've already learnt so much using the "search". For instance I found another remark of yours in another thread and also found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2466074#post2466074 where you have your answer
Another reason is the title of your thread Help needed , HTC Touch screen error! like me probably others understood you have a technical problem with your screen (broken or damaged) and nobody could help you but repair shop...
I trust you'll continue contributing here because your last post proves you're a gentleman.
All the best !!!

Thanks for your reply tito12,
Anyways its nice forum but not very newbie frendly. I guess the way I wrote this thing will be much easier for any newbie to fix his china htc, without talking too much about roms, loaders etc etc, wich is very confusing for newbies (like me and others).
I thought it was screen problem cause my htc was getting some messy colors while loading (you can see it in the video i provided). And i stated "unhellpfull forum" by keeping in mind that more than 200 people viewed the thread, and not even single one said simply : "i have no idea, or sorry" so i know someone will try to help me out.
Anyways as a owner of HTC I will still contribute to this forum, in the way I can but words I wrote could be some kind of newbie impressions.
Best regards to all.

Sorry to see no one could help you out - maybe its because its a clone and most users here have real genuine ones? Anyway its great to see you got it fixed and stick with the forums as I am sure you will learn a lot from them and soemtimes get an answer. I find that hardware questions dont get many responses but if you go into say a skinning forum you will get more replies.

Have I Got A Very Expensive Brick?

Hi Guys/Gals,
I'm VERY new to all of this, as far as I was concerned, FLASHING was a bloke in a dirty mackintosh!
I do hope that I'm posting this in the right section (like I said I'm new to all this)
I have (had) an O2 XDA Exec, it had WM5 on it, and my (idiot) boyfriend decided that I should have WM6. I trusted him to do this (I know, I'm too trusting too ). During the installation, using active sync, Vista decided that it knew better and everything went kapput!
I'm sorry that I can't desribe it in your techie speak.
All I have now is a blank screen, and when I plug it in to charge the red light comes on.
ANY and all help would be VERY VERY much appreciated.... and if I may, could I ask that any help is described to me as if you were talking to a 10 year old?
Many, many thanks.

Hope Not
Check and read the WIKI for Universal and am pretty sure you can find some answer in there. I nearly bricked my Exec once but every information i needed is in the WIKI. By the way is there anything on the screen? Have you tried doing a hard reset?

Where to start?
Thanks Sandi76,
There is nothing on the screen at all, I've tried doing a soft reset and a hard reset and still nothing.
I'm looking at Wiki now, but I honestly don't know where to start. It must be the blonde (natural of course ) in me!
So, if someone could just help me to get started, it would be appreciated.
....and my boyfriend will be very happy about not having to sleep in the shed!
Thanks again,
MissG

PS. I'm not going to let him touch my phones EVER again!

There is hope!

Hi,
I think the first big problem is Vista. I've heard that Vista is not friendly to the ROM updating process. I may be wrong and somebody may have solved this but I would suggest that you get hold of a computer with XP in it to try to restart the updating process.
Second, can you put the phone in bootloader state? (press the two option buttons and reset hole at the same time) If so, you can flash your ROM again. I know, i know, to press the three at the same time you need a bit of help...maybe your bf can help with this...

Never again!
Thanks so much Wovens,
I've tried the reset to factory settings and pressed the 0 key, and it just says Clearing..., goes off and then nothing happens.
(I must have very long fingers because I can do it myself, and my b/f needs never come near my phone EVER again!)
I'll have to search about for someone with XP. I think that all my friends use Vista???
Do you think that finding an XP machine is my first step?
Thanks guys... I REALLY do appreciate your help you know?

Hi again,
if you only have Vista, read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292631 it may help.
Again, I would do it with XP. It may be that something got partially flashed when b/f tried, so, factory settings will not work because they are not there any more. You will need to flash again. There is also, if I remember correctly, a way of flashing via SD card that bypasses the computer process. But you would need the phone fully charged or till battery light shows green as you don't have anything showing on screen right now.

Wovens

IF there's a will there's a way...
Although i had flashed my ROM under Vista i am not going to recommend it because of the hassle of reinstalling the old driver for your exec, and the process is just a pain but it's worth it once you've done it. Try XP. But if it will not work check and read the whole wiki of Universal and am sure the answer you are looking for will be there. By the way can you go on the bootloader mode? perhaps you can try the mtty utility under 'How to upgrade your ROM' in the Universal WIKI.

Hi MissG, I recently resurrected my old Exec and had the same problem (trusting Vista Ultimate), I thought I had bricked the Exec but then read the wiki and found this:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader
I know you think the screen is blank but look very very closely and hopefully you will see that it is in fact showing the v. as in the screenshot, if so then follow this and praise be to Xda Developers - good luck
Cheers
Wicksie

Lost hope?

OMG! You're right. I actually did read that on wiki yesterday and tried it, but couldn't see anything.
So I just gave it another go (just in case) and it is there. Incredibly faint and small I can't read what it says, but I can see that there is some writing there.
So, all is not lost then?
I've had no luck finding an XP machine yet though, so I may have to resort to partitioning my machine here (which I don't really want to do... knowing my luck recently, I'll also have to join several other forums to fix my PC!)
God bless the internet, God bless forums like these, God bless all of the people that help
It's like having a complete library in my bedroom.
Thanks again, and thanks so much for all of your help. I'll let you all know how I get on with it.

Hi,
Some guy in another thread said he's managed to flash his Uni using an XP emulator inside Windows 7! It also works for Vista. See link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=481205

A HUGE thank you to OLYMPIA786 for going above and beyond the call of duty!
I'm a very happy little girl now and my b/f doesn't have to sleep in the shed any more

It was a real pleasure.

Out of pure idle curiosity - what was the actual issue in the end?

nothing big, same old vista compatibility problem, i flashed it with XP and it gone through the very first time.

Olympia786 did my Exec as well - a stunning job!! There are times I hate Vista and this was one of them!

I have got vista ultimate on dvd but never installed on my laptop.don't want to take risk with my universal.I didn't like the vista to be very honest,too complicated and not user friendly.happy with XP.

Noticed Something Strange.. Hard Buttons Have Lights?

Okay, I'm not sure what has happened. I picked up my HD2 last week, I had WinMo running until I got home from the store LOL. After trying the different builds I settled on Darkstone FROYO for obvious reasons to me. Ran it ever since, until today, I decided to give a different radio a try due to the fact that large file downloads ie Google Sky Map would fail and I read that a different radio may help. After flashing the radio I went from the Chucky ROM to RC4.7 BLACK TMOUS VR ROM. All went well. Backed up my SD CARD DATA and reformated it to FAT32 32KB, copy my backup back on the SD and loaded dual boot.
Booted right up into Android and right away i see my hard keys are lit up. To be honest I didn't know they even were lighted. LOL.
Anybody else notice this?

They are not working in any build as of now. Are you sure that when you booted into Android from WM, these buttons were not lit up.
If they were, they gonna be lit up all the time (even if you lock the device). If that is the case, would suggest you to reboot it to windows and boot into android only when the buttons are not lit up.

They are on... but yes you are correct. they are on all the time. Even when I lock or when the device goes to sleep.

You booted it from WM with them on, wait til they turn off before booting android

I noticed something else too... I still had the boot screen from the Chucky ROM even after the flash to the VR ROM. So I just reflashed to AxLor DF1 Xlite and that is taken care of. my lights are now off yet again.

wasted thread this has been talked about 1000 times over find another way to get your post up

they shouldnt be lit up lol

i agree... but maybe that how "he's" getting his post count up... lol
anyways, this has happened to me a couple times and i agree with earhog, wait till they are off in WM before u run HARET. this way they'll be off when you boot android and wont drain your battery as quickly...

Damn... I have always searched the forum for answers and advice prior to posting any questions... hence my post count. I did do a search and all I could pull up was posts about them not working. This was more of observation than a question that I thought was strange.
Nothing more.

exactly my point since this android port hit all we get are people posting things that are not helpful ...how is this helping any one , so what u are telling me is we need to help him figure out why his button lights are staying on ..the is a effin emulator ....how about i go post a thread ..."my android market is working"....wtf is that going to do for any one when there a 15 threads saying the same thing find one of thse thread to "CONTRIBUTE" to ...

Every post should be from a Developer or Chef?? The point of the post was... hey this is what is happening, has it happened to anyone else? How did you fix it? Ideas?
The EXACT point of this forum. If you you knew the answer and it was nothing that intrigued you... why did you open the post? Lol. Anyway, it has been answered, issue solved.

and you do have a point but the forum has rules and there specific rules for this whole hd2 android forum , thats why when you see people like me saying this stuff we never just put the answer its because would you tell your child the answer all the time no because we all know he really wont learn anything...which is the real reason for this site

I am using my first post just for you. You sir, are an ass and need to go elswhere with your "higher-than-mighty" attitude. Since none of the roms are finalized, this is an acceptable topic for this section. OP even stated later on, all he found was posts for the buttons NOT working. And it is apparent that he was asking if anyone else has ran into this issue. For all we know, there may be an issue the the ROM he has loaded that is causing the buttons to stay on like that.
So heed your own advise and stop padding YOUR post count.

noticed something like that too. the button lights are on SOMETIMES. I can say for sure, I didnt start haret with the lights on, but at some point the lights went on during running android (and stayed on). I think an incoming call triggered it, but I'm not sure.

MAGLDR - battery question

I've noticed that when I'll turn off phone and then put USB in, red LED is lighted for few seconds, suddenly phone starts, battery stops loading and MAGLDR is executed. It seems MAGLDR substitutes code for battery loading. Does it mean, that if I'll make battery totally empty I won't have a chance to load it without OS (which handles battery loading process)?

i thought they fixed it in magdlr .13? so you can drain your battery to 0% without problems...

AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
RTFM

Read the bit that says "New in 1.13"..... It's pretty simple.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10197474&postcount=1
On a side note, no, you can't kill the battery. Once power is connected, your phone uses that, it's just the light goes off while MAGLDR is booting.

Same here, when I turn off the phone and charge it, it turn on automatically. Help please!

It's suppose to do that... that's a new feature in version 1.13 so that there isn't the problem where you have to remove battery to get phone to boot like what happened with earlier magldrs. People complained about that, so cotulla fixed it the only way possible... so it will turn on automatically, and now people are complaining about that. He said in next version it will have setting to allow the uncontrolled charging while phone is off, but you might have to remove battery to get it to boot again. Also not sure if uncontrolled charging is bad for battery or not.
You have to understand... you're hacking your phone to run OS's that weren't meant for it... things are not going to act the same as a native phone. You should feel lucky you can do these things at all.

I have 2300mAh extended battery and with almost every android rom it is useless. When android boots up to the stage when you must enter sim pin than hd2 reboots and it is going into loop. I have discovered when I isolate middle pin on the battery everything is working fine, battery is charging and it can be used without problems.

Doesn't any body READ anymore???

What??? People post explanations to be read???
I thought we were just losing our time trying to help. It seems many prefer to read the title, go to the last page and ask a question for which the answer is on the first post
For their defense, the search functionnality is too complexe. Isn't it possible to just clic on a button and receive answer to all our question directly in our mailbox. Or maybe a button we can clic and directly solve our issues.
I found one... it's the "add to basket" button for an Android phone on an online shop. Works great

this thread helps me a lot! thanks for good article!

Complex? are you having a laugh?
You type in your keywords and click tyeh search button, whats hard about that?
You also get a "similar" threads list whyen creating a topic prior to posting and 9/10 you can find your answer this way also.

Of course I was having a laugh
In French we call "ironie" (not sure at all about the translation).
I write stupid things to make the owner of the thread realize that the question has not to be asked.
For this question, you don't even have to use the search function (which is not complicate, I agree).
The answer is on the first page of MAGLDR thread!!! (know issue, not corrected in x.13 but a paliative solution has been applied... the phone start to prevent having to remove the battery).
Honnestly it's sad to see that you keep posting the same answers and it seems some people never take time to read. They just ask directly their questions.
Maybe I'm sometime difficult to understand as English is not my language.
So our answers don't help... the question neither. It just make a lot of useless thread with the same question again and again.

I can also add that when you post a thread, the forum give you the thread which could give you the answer!!!

i plugged in the phone to my computer and it just reboots, i cant charge the battery. I need some seriously help here. Yes i have read this post but i cant find a solution to this problem.
I have also trieed it in my wall charger but the same happens, just reboots all the time.

[Q] Cannot Hardreset my phone?

Hui all xda-developers.
I'm a knew member in here, so I will first say hi to all members .
As my title says, i cannot Hard-reset my phone (HTC HD2/LEO).
The hole thing is a big story, but what the hack
First I brooked my screen, then I tried to change the screen, but without problems. Then after to month, I did make an Password for my phone, because of privacy thing on the phone. BTW, the phone changed the password itself .
I talked with HTC, and they says that it is a bug in the phone, and the only way was a hard-reset, (But when i clanged the screen, i did broke the volume up and down button ) - then they gave me a price if they should make my phone 4000 Danish krone's ........ I will not give 4000 DK, I have All ready paid about 5-6000 Danish krone's for the phone!..
Is there someone in this forum that can help me? I all ready have searched Google and so on, talked with so many people, but all the time they say 'Hard-reset' ..
I seriously don't no what I have to do, maybe it is possible by USB cable :S

So your main problem is that the phone changed the password and not you cant hard reset right ?
This happens a lot even there is a thread about it somewhere. Try to remove the sim card and the sd-card then enter your pin code.
Or if that didn't work you can try to flash an official ROM for your device via USB, But since you broke the vol rockers and your phone is locked I'm not exactly sure how you'd go into bootloader nor connect in ActiveSync mode. Give it a try, it may work

Welcome to xda!
I think that the HD2 section must be overwhelming for a starter... and the search function can deliver confusing results.
However, as the phone has already some major on-market time, most problems you might face have been discussed sometime in the past, that is why I do recommend you to use the search function with simple search terms.
Now, about your question:

The tip nr. 15 describes how to reset your phone - and the rest of the thread describes many other more or less unknown features and functions of your phone.

He already knows how to hard reset
But his vol's are broken, that's why he's asking

Mate if you broke the screen and the volume key buttons then why on earth are you trying to reset the phone?
Fix the hardware first and then deal with a hard reset. If both those items are broken then there really is no way to hard reset the HD2. I wish you the best of luck but it looks like your HD2 is really dead...

I'm trying to reset my phone, because i cannot find those hardware\main board for the phone on the Internet? (Those wires in the phone, that goes to the volume up and down)
If you can recover an Nokia (something) without an hard reset, then why can we not do it on an HD2 ? Do you no what i mean >?

^^^ Yeah, my bad. Missed the whole point that the hardware is completely broken. And a password issue.
Anyway...
