subscribing, mine is starting to connect/disconnect intermittently
If you can really deal with hardware and connectors then there is a thread of how to open up an atom here in this forum.
If its still under warranty, I suggest you take it to the service centre.
It won't cover under warranty for physical damage.

Nope. They won't cover under warranty. But they would surely rectify your problem by asking you to pay for it. Best option if you can't locate a good replacement.

Well, you are good at hardware then
Hi guys
I'm having the same problem as oyama, my USB connector broke off the board.
Oyama, can you explain me how you did it?
I'm pretty good at hardware and I have some previous knowledge.
Can you help me out?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards

Hello,
I hope someone can help me.
My HD2 was overrun by a car and by strippping the phone I've damaged the flatcable of the front keypad.
Does somebody know where I can buy a new keypad?
I've found a new LCD and digitizer but no keypad...
Maybe someone knows something helpful to solve my problem...
I've searched on eBay and Google with no success...
Many regards
Crusoe

Nobody there?
this might be a dumb answer so i apoligize in advance
have you tried contacting HTC directly? they must have some places where parts can be obtained? authorized repair centres etc?
+1 for updates though, my keypad flexi seems alittle 'flaky' at best..
Yes I've ask HTC directly... They have a company who repair their broken devices...
I've ask them and they say: "Yes we have a keypad PCB and no we won't sell it to you... Send your phone to us. It will cost round about 150€. Without LCD and without digitizer."
Nice one...

Hello.
The MicroUSB platform on the main-board of my HTC HD2, is broken. So I can't charge the phone nor transfer files.
I disassembled the phone and I need a new main-board now. The part number is 76H03923-XXM.
Where can I buy this part? I've contacted HTC a week ago, but still no answer.
If anyone have this part for sale, please contact me. Or if anyone have a broken HD2 (maybe broken screen), and wants to sell it then don't hesitate to contact me.

Damn so it seams it wasn't only me that happend that. So did i broke my USG port and my phone does not charge. Plus went to the official reparement and they do not want to take responsability for it. They came with the vague excuse of "mainboard defect not covered by the warranty".
They showed me a photo of the board and as they saying my phone has humitty there for not there responsability...
I also wanted to buy a mainboard for my phone but i've searched everywhere and no luck.

To begin with, I sent mine for repair too. HTC wont take the responsibility for the phones broken USB port. They only sent me this picture showing the broken USB.
I haven't treated my phone bad, so i was very disagree with their decision. But they only gave me a link to the Danish court of appeal.
- So, what have you done now? Bought a new phone?
It's sad

To me they came with the lane excuse of humitity in the board. I see that everything is a good excuse not to take responsability for theye'r crappy materials...
I've always been afraid of something like this happening. That's why as soon as I found out powermat made wireless charging for the HD2 I ordered it. It really sucks for everything to depend on one little port.
You might try this solution for now and just use wifi to transfer files. It makes flashing tough but at least it'll be working, and you can take your time looking for a new board.

I got exactly the same answer. "Humility on the board", it would cost me 550$ for HTC to change the Main-board.

I already have seen powermat buy can't buy it. I live in Denmark and they don't ship over here...

Nothing there
--- For now, i ordered this one; http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.40593... So i can charge the battery external.

Damn $550? Thats a new phone... They asked me €180 and i though they were crasy lolol. The 2nd battery n the charger for it i have one what really needed is something to replace the USB connection...
Try : http://www.globaldirectparts.com/HTC-HD2-Replacement-Repair-Parts-s/6112.htm
Can ask them on the part# for them to search.
Similar problem here. The Micro USB doesn't get inserted properly, seems like it's sticking out a mm too much, resulting in a very bad connection, whereas a few month ago the micro usb would stick in completely.
It now only charges, transfering content with a pc isn't possible anymore.
My thoughts were: if I buy a cradle, chances are that it would connect better due to the gravity (don't laugh ). Today I received the cradle but no result. It only charges, and I have a feeling the charging will stop in the near future.
I have the HTC HD2 for exactly two years and I found it very frustrating being confronted with what is in my thought a construction problem.
I've seen the link for dealxtreme, the external loader, but the comment posted below it, doesn't really encourage me to buy the item (high temperature)
Any other thoughts would be appreciated.
If you know anyone that can solder. They can detach it, and re solder it back onto the main-board. Shouldn't be too hard. I think? Should be possible.
Might help out some of you who have the same issues like I did. I used a toothpick to remove dust from the micro usb port. Although the connector still doesn't fit entirely, I now am able to transfer files again to my phone using the cable. Connenction still isn't that good, but might help.
htc broken port
Dear all. If you experience problems with changing your connector i can help.I have the equipment and will do the job for 20$ only (the price includes the brand new connector) Only problem is that you must ship it to Bulgaria so i can do the job. If anyone is interested can pm me.

thank you
Is there a way to change the partition size witout USB?
EDIT: Is it possible to feed the power directly to the battery connector, and if so how? I could solder a simple circuit if this would be necessary to use a USB adapter as power source
Micro-USB
How can I change myself my micro-usb (for HTC HD2) . Are there a tutorial ? or any videos ? Where could I find all accessories and components required for the repair?
I think the accessories will cost more than a new HD2... I think you can´t do it by yourself because its to tiny
Bad idea!

i6amokk doesn´t answer to my PM
EDIT: I bought a second HD2 with damged, but working screen... Now I change the Mainboard, that I have a completly OK HD2 an one with damaged Screen and broken USB. Now how can I stabilize the USB Port to prevent that the new Mainboard get broken too?
And i6amokk anserwed, I sent him Pictures but I,ve not much hope, because the top Layer of the MB is damaged...
My big bulky phone with the big bulky extended battery dropped to the floor as I got up from my chair, not realising that the usb cord had decided to entangle me. Next thing I know, my precious hd2 is lying on the floor, screen faced down, and the usb cord "ripped".
Everything seemed to be working fine, but when I tried plugging it into my dock, it wouldn't charge, so I tried holding it at angles - it worked, but whenever i let go, it would stop charging.
Does anyone know how to fix this without having to take the whole thing apart?
Sorry friend but you will have to take the phone apart to fix this problem. Might even have to replacecthe mainbosrd as the USB port is attachedcto the mainboard and can not be replaced seperately.

As a temporary solution you could buy a wall charger and an extra battery off ebay for a couple of bucks, changing and charging batteries on the go works for me!

ty, but I'm worried that it'll get worse in the long term (long being anything over a couple of days), ie. completely stop working, and data transfer? I'd have to use wireless adb to do transferring.
Is it still under warranty? You might get lucky

I looked at the warranty terms and conditions, and it says that anything that has to do with the usb port area will not be considered as being part of the warranty, and I don't have the receipt because I got it 2nd hand. :'(
it could be fixed, but the port must be resoldered to the motherboard. In case some circuit tracks were broken in the incident, they will have to be remade, a good service center could handle it.
Most of them aren't too fond of using real electronic measurements and algorithms in order to track corresponding usb port pins to various points on the motherboard but it's not impossible. If my hd2 would have been damaged in this way i won't hesitate to crack it open and get my hands dirty
If I wanted to, how much do you think I'd be able to sell it for? Thinking of selling it, and mybe getting a used tmous, if I can afford it.
I've managed to find some tmous on sale, so, what do you guys reckon I could sell mine for?
When I broke my first LEO512 by thinking I could repair it, I took the individual components (Case, chassis, motherboard) out and sold them on ebay. I got about £119 in total for it all
You could always sell it for full price and let the buyer find out themselves what's wrong with it.

I have this problem my micro usb port has completely broke, and the circuit lines on the mother board are screwed up, HTC will not touch it
gone the route of a wall charger for now came with another battery for £8 delivered so im happy i can still use my phone, while looking on Evilbay for a new hd2

Finally had the courage to open it, and as you said, the connections are more or less broken off, and I've got shaky hands (without nerves) and can't handle soldering it, so I'm thinking of patching it up with some blue tack

hi T-macgnolia ....(dont take this as an argument... just curious ) i just saw a replacement micro usb port for hd2 on ebay.... so is that usb port on ebay just to fool us or can it actually be replaced
Ok, short story - nt gnna work, does anyone have the bottom part of the motherboard up for sale?
Just got even better, looks like the lcd's broken now
Maybe someone can help me. I have a T-Mo HD2. I sent it in to HTC's repair center, while in repair they damaged it and the Camera/Volume Up no longer function. HTC won't repair it (It's a long story.) Anyway, since I've been fighting with HTC for weeks now, and getting nowhere... What could they have possibly screwed up internally so I can look into replacing it myself?

1. they HAVE to repair it when they damage it
2. in good case the buttons are damaged which you can replace if you disamble the phone
in bad case, they damaged the mainboard, so your hd2 is a brick

I don't agree on this, it could be only main flexboard... or worst case scenario the main flexboard connector on mainboard could be faulty/damaged.

Its possible, the flex connectors have slipped or the circuit board gets cracked internally in a fall, best to just to strip down to check . dismantling guides in My Android Collections
