Im installing a new rom on my vogue, and now i am at the tap screen to update windows and the screens not responding. I have hard reset...nothing, activesync will not connect in order for me to reinstall rom, any ideas would be helpful, thanks in advance
I had that happen to mine. I took it to the sprint store and they replaced it even though I didn't have an insurance plan.
I wasn't updating the rom though, and my touchscreen got flakey before dying.

Right i need some help, big style.
Had me phone now for nearly a couple of months and it's been fine. Then today it all went wrong. Firstly the phone just did'nt work no signal or anything. Tried everything to fix but nothing seemed to work. So hard reset. Now the phone boots up and goes thru setup etc.. (but no 02 option??) gets to my today screen but when I choose anything i get a msg saying did i want to run unknown program etc.. choose yes/no. I have chosen all the combinations to get it to work but the phone sometimes freezes so i have to soft reset to get going but then I'm back to square one. I've downloaded the backup o2 rom but when i run it i get an error saying it cannot create a folder??? So at the moment i can use the phone sometimes but sometimes it freezes up 9/10 i cant sync with comp.
Before you ask I only have tomtom installed and afew themes, and the xda worked fine before hand.
Any ideas please would be a great help. If not I'll be straight on the phone to o2 to get a replacement.
cheers

Right getting really annoyed now with my phone :evil:
managed to get it working again after downloading the o2 rom and re-flashing. Since i started this thread i have re-flashed rom about 3 times!!!! My phone just stops working. No network signal or anything!!! All the problems started after i install wisbar, phones never been the same since. stoped using wisbar and started pocket plus. phone worked fine until i soft reset cus it frooze. when it restarted nothingworked. I'm just about to flash again for the 4th time. Only gonna install tomtom and eten dialer and afew games thats it. I'll install in basic mode but wont delete any o2 files as normally do. If it goes again after this it's going back to o2.
cheers
Well, simply send it back for warranty repair, what's the problem? These things happen, I'm used to that... had to bring my Nokia 6600 back 2 times during warranty year... :?
does it damaged the phone if your constantly re-flashing the rom?
Sorry to keep posting but is there an anti-virus software or something cus i think there must be something on my xda cus even after flashing the phones still not 100%
cheers
Keep in mind, by the way, that flashing your rom with any ROM other than one provided to you by your provider is grounds for voiding your warranty
yeah I know i just thought that may fix whatever problem there is. I think i've just got a dud mini s. Worked fine for a month but now it's gone crazy. I think re-flashing with the o2 rom 5 times and still no joy means the phone will go back.
I'll ring o2 first thing in the morning.
cheers
Hey guys, any help will be GREATLY appreciated...I had my HTC Touch Vogue replace by sprint's insurance no more than 2 weeks ago because it broke. I decided to install Windows Mobile 6.5 on this one and WOW its like a completely new phone the problem is that now the screen is acting all crazy. It spins all over the place and even moves without me touching it. I reset all the settings on the phone so I believe is a hardware problem. Its a real bummer because I haven't even pay the $100 for this replacement crap and now its broken. Can I put Windows Mobile 6.1 back to the phone so I can take it to the store and get it checked out? thanks in advance!!

yea put the stock rom from what ever carrier you have back on the device, if it is hardware related which it sounds like they should replace it for free
Stock roms to download and use for flash

Be sure to put the bootloader back to stock as well
I was able to put the stock Winmo 6.1 on it however Im not sure how to put the stock bootloader on it ?
You usually don't need the stock bootloader on the phone to take it back to the store. I have always just flashed back the stock rom and went with it.
Well but im going to send the phone back to the insurance since I received the new one, I dont want any problems with them lol besides I dont know what they re going to do with the phone, what if they try to reset it and install the OS again, and see CoKe bootloader
I was reading a tutorial on this site about relocking the voge and it says to simply put the stock rom from my manufacturer on the phone, but that clearly doesnt work I wish it was that easy, can you guys point me in the right direction pleasse
You have to install the .40 unlocker from imcokeman; then install your default carrier ROM and it will relock your ROM. I've done this for returns and it works. Here is the link with the file and some notes:

yes yes yes, I was doing that right now, I kept reading and found that article however In some place around here I saw something about freezing at 29% and ironically I was installing the stock rom after going to .40 and froze at 29%!! so I though I was dead but went into recovery mode and gave it another try and is almost at 100% now!! *crosses fingers* thank you very much for your help will report how it goes.
great success! thank you so much to everyone who contributed!!
OK, here what's the deal: a few days ago I cracked the screen, so I bought a new one and replaced it. BUT, now the phone does not recognize it and the screen doesn't turn on at all. The phone boots and it's working fine, I can recieve calls normaly, but the screen is dead. ALSO, the volume keys stoped functioning...
Any ideas please? I'm getting kinda desperate here...
Tnx
You probably messed up somwhere in your wiring. Open it back up and make sure everything is intact. Check out some guides online to make sure everything is in the proper place.
Allready done that, everything is in place...I do have a cooked ROM thought I can't remember which since my screen is not working, obiveously...Could it be tha I nedd to switch back an original ROM for it to be able to recognize the new hardware??? And is there an app that would allow me to monitor phones activity over PC???
No, A cooked rom wont affect a screen replacement in anyway.
I repaired mine while KWBR's Topix 6.5 was on the handset, infact Ive never had this handset on a stock rom, so it wont make a difference or help you.
Did you buy your Screen and Digitizer factory pre-assembled, the small price difference compared to buying the part standalone is worth every cent in preventing these sorts of after repair problems.
So I recently opened up my phone with the official tools to replace something inside because the warranty didn't cover it. After I put it back the touchscreen stopped working. It only works sometimes in the morning. After I unlock the phone the touchscreen is fully responsive but when I lock it, the touchscreen fails. In other words, the touchscreen fails when i'm at the lock screen.
Lordy no one searches anymore I swear. This has been covered many, many times. Try flashing a new ROM, or hard-reseting and if all else fails call for a warranty replacement.
Hey meister, how can i flash a rom if i can't even get into the phone itself????
Hard Reset FAILED
Soft Reset FAILED
Can't send back to T-Mobile because broke warranty when I opened it!!!
Uhm, again...nice use of the search, you can flash a new ROM via SD card...no touchscreen interaction required whatsoever. You can hard reset without touchscreen interaction. You CAN send it back to T-mobile for a warranty replacement, they will just charge you 100-ish USD because the case has been opened.
I flashed in the Energy Maxsence rom but it failed. I tried the Hard Reset and it failed. Soft reset is unaccessible for me because my touchscreen failed. FYI I was told by a t-mobile USA worker that if I ship my phone in, they will send me a new one and if they find out the warranty is broken, they will keep my broken phone and force me to pay 500 USD for the warranty phone. So yeah no way it's $100.

If i were you, i'd ask myself this...
"Self! I think we should SEARCH THE FORUM before we make assumptions! And Self!, we need to listen to the Dev above me on how to do it! If not, WE NEED TO SEARCH THE THREADS!"
After much thread searching [after several above lambasted the OP for "not doing so"], I've found no information regarding this issue. My HD2 became unresponsive last night, and sporadically regained touch control. I just flashed the T-Mo update and the touch functions worked flawlessly until I locked the phone. When I bring up the lock screen, the touch functions are gone, essentially turning this phone into an expensive paperweight.
I figured originally that the issue was hardware-related, so when I did regain touch control I booted Android [a Froyo 2.2 NexusOne build specifically for the HD2, booted via HaRET] and it worked for a small amount of time, before losing the functions again. This leads me to believe that it's a software issue, but on that same note, re-flashing a new ROM has done nothing after a lock screen is enabled.
Frankly I'm clueless where to start, and rightfully upset. I bought this phone in April and love it, I've had no problems whatsoever until last night.
Hey guys,
a friend has a HTC HD2 what has some strange issues.
If you start the phone, everything is fine, you can work with it like it should be.
But after you switch of the display and reactivate it after some time it seems that the digitizer is no more working.
It's just luck if you try it several times and it work again. Most of the time it doesnt.
At first for me it seems to be a software issue.. he was still on Stock ROM WM 6.5 and nothing changes anyway.
So I did all steps to unlock the phone and installed ICS 4.0.4 release. Still same issues here... :-/
After that I gave WP 7 a try, there it seems to be a bit better but still the same trouble.
After turning on the display again the digitizer is no more working. But directly after a reboot it works still fine even with multitouch.
Does anyone had ever heard a a HD2 like this? Is the digitizer just broken or can I repair it in any way? I mean it works great if you don't switch the display off
