strange, my flash worked with the original ROM
I had the same problem, flash icon disapeared after rom upgrade. It was the newest Dopod rom. Nothing I did would fix it, so I figured I could live with out it. Well when I upgraded to the So. African rom it came back. I guess it gets missed sometimes in the rom pack. I even ran the Dopod rom again to see if it was just missing from the rom, but it worked that time. Switched back to So. african rom again and flash is there no propblem.

Problems might be solved by wiping the original rom and install MoDaCo's 1.5 one.
I have been with these problems for days and after install 1.5 rom from MoDaco, everything goes fine again.
The fact proves they are not hardware faults.
They are almighty system BUGS!!!

no way I'm invalidating my warranty by messing around with different roms... even if it is software fault, it should be repaired by manufacturer rather then users themselves...

Since your warranty has been invalidated, why not try this customised rom to get everything back again?

I'm offering an alternative to those who are unable to get warranties or relunctant to wait for a new but probably another unreliable phone set.
You may ignore this if you are confident to get a new phone without extra cost.
Seen as there is meant to be an official update coming from HTC sometime in the near future I'm going to hang around for that, if one fails to materialise then I'll start using one of the custom ROMs.
Having said that, everything currently works on my Hero. And so it should, it's only 5 days old.

If you can reproduce the fault by going back to the stock state (and hopefully get the LED/Headjack faults again) you have proved that there is a software bug in the phone.
i never had any doubt it is a software thing when a simple app, Toggle Headset, bypasses the 3.5mm jack problem, and that problem is always present and simultaneous with the LED problem :/
you don't fix motherboard problems with a widget, so it obviously isn't a motherboard problem :/

If the problem is reproducable by flashing the Hero back to the original ROM and waiting a couple of days får the problem to reappear it's 100% confimed. But so far this thread is my best hope that HTC really knows of the problem since [email protected] apperantly "fixed" it...

Problems? I've installed 4 different versions and 3 radios now, no issues at all! Its usually people who don't follow instructions who have the issues.
Official is available on MoDaCo's website, you can try that.
As for warranty, make a nandroid backup and you can go back to stock and re-do recovery partition easily.
Comfirmed. Updating to latest Version fixed the issue. I just restored a old nandroid backup and problem is gone... Weird, as i was expecting it to be there..will now flash back to latest version... still unsure if i should go about getting my phone replaced...
I sent my hero back to HTC who MAKE the phone and they replaced the mainboard
IF they don't know who does ? why doesnt a hard reset fix it?

<DISCLAIMER>
THIS IS JUST A THEORY!!! I REPEAT THAT IT'S JUST A THEORY!!!
I have a friend who has a theory why a hardreset doesn't fix it:
It's because HTC shipped the phones with a factory configured image wich might have differed from the ROM mage flashed to to phone in the first place. When all of us had to do our first hard reset the ORIGINAL ROM image replaced the factory configured image which apperantly contained software to poll the headphone jack to see if the user put a jack in there. That software DIDN'T exist in the flashed ROM image.
THE ABOVE IS JUST A THEORY!!!

SO why did it work at first and what has the LEDS go to do with it? i reset my phone twice and it all worked fine it was a week or so later that it went wrong if it worked why did it stop?
dont worry about invalidating ur warranty, just make sure you do a nandroid backup before you flash , any issues or need to go bak to stockrom just do a restore!!

If you make a nandroid backup your warranty will not be invalidated once you restore it. Get Your facts right.
Flashed almost every version of MODACO and no problems whatsoever.
What is the problem with the 3.5mm jack?
Does anyone know whether a ...ehr ... iPhone headpiece ... ehr ... works there?
Hey guys the offical update just came out i just didn't notice cause they have the picture of the Touch Pro2 for it. So go and get it guys!! Just go to t-mobile.com/wmupgrade
Before I even install this...just wanna make sure. Is the HSPL going to be overwritten?
Thanks! I didn't notice it either.
yeah can custom roms still be installed?

As far as i know it does change it from 2.08 to 2.10. so i recommend you do some research before installing this update cause as of now i don't think there is a way to override 2.10 to have hspl.
It's just the 2.13 ROM, from what I saw on the download page.
In this event: The WMobile OS version is the same.
Ok so I installed it, I then read where people said it was twitchy and such and....well it is. My clouds no longer glide across my screen, they now twitch across my screen. I'm downgrading back to 2.10 until 2.13 is better.
its working for me...

i would hard reset and then see how things are going...even though when you upgraded to the new rom it hard reseted for you, just doing it to be safe
Touch Screen Not Responsive
My issue with the new version is that the touch screen is flaky. I have to swipe my finger harder to move from screen to screen and push harder to get the characters to work. Went back to a cooked rom.
No more touch response issues
I re loaded the official rom again and voila, my touch senstivity issues are gone....I am not sure what else got changes between the first release and the official one(18th May), but I am not seeing the touch sensitivity issues..its smooth and am able to click on the x button without any issue...
im having touch problem and connection problem it keeps loosing service and serches for service, i didnt have this problem on the old rom, is there anyway to fix those without going back to the old version?
Please see the general forum for the fix on sensitivity:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683192
As for the Radio, in the 2.13 version the radio was updated, so yes you may have different results from different radios in your area, please see this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669733&page=3
for your answer on HSPL, yes 2.13 will overwrite it to SPL 2.10; however if you re-install 2.10 then it will re-write the SPL to 2.08, and then you can re-install HSPL....
Topic to General please...

I download early this morning and tried on WIN7; said file corrupted.
btw, download speed was like crap
Slow to non existent download speeds
I'm trying to dl the newest official update, size 220mb, speed 6kb/s, you heard right. Guessing the server is getting slammed. Can't be my internet connection, cause I'm doing this from work, I work for Comcast and I'm at the headend, have my own personal connection rated up to 25mb/s. This sucks........

I hard reset and then also reflashed the ROM, still had the same issues. I liked the menu's to "bounce" when I hit the top or bottom and scroll smoothly. I applied all the registry edits and it didn't help much, like I thought it did. My Sense weather was very twitchy and it really bothered me. I downgraded back to spl 2.08 and my 2.10.531 ROM for the time being. It is much better now, I never had any issue's to begin with so the update seemed pointless.
Looking at some custom ROM's right now.
My touchscreen is no longer working in either android or wm. I originally had the energy rom and since my Problem started have switched back to chucky rom and finally back to tmobile stock rom. I had radio version 2.12 installed and have tried 2.10 since. Any suggestions?

Eh thats what I am afraid of.
Seems a bit odd to me that reports of this seem to be surfacing only now? Could this not be linked to running Android?
I have the same issue btw.
I'm going to try a task29 see if that helps.

When you sent it back did you uninstall hardspl? if you did what was the exact process you used. I tried loading the nbh file from a stock rom but am not having success. Have tried a couple of different memory cards. Also, I wonder if this has been happening more with the energy roms.

you need to remove hspl before sending it back or else they may deny your claim.
solutions
1- use hspl3, run as admin, and reverse but if that doesn't work (didn't for me) do the following:
2- load bootloader manually (reboot holding volume down)
3- plug into usb
4- now run hspl3
this worked for me (thanks again to samsamuel!)
I don't know what I did but it has miraculously started working again. No idea. Really. Maybe in my failed attempts to remove hdspl I did something.

congrats! though i wouldn't be surprised if it comes back...mine was good for a day then it was over and done. funny thing was the hardware buttons worked (and i could flash different roms / etc.)
good luck!
Had the same issue week. i was running energy rom and darkstone's droid. Mine wouldn't work at all. t-mobile sent me a new one. Gave me a loaner phone. i stubbled across that my phone responded to touch and worked just fine as long as the sim card wasn't in the HD2. When re-inserted it work start freezing up again after a short period of time.
Same here touch screen does not work. I reflashed the ROM no help (energy rom) I even tried the stock rom no help removed SD card no help. Will be taking it back to TMobile after i uninstall HSPL

Maybe a bit early to set a pattern, but in all cases I have read in this thread, the not responding screen come after installing the following combination: Energy ROM + Android. Strange, just in case I will try to avoid that combination...
And I see another trend here! T-Mobile devices! Maybe there is some problem with the US HD2 Touchscreen?
Just had the same problem.
I have an unbranded HD2 running stock 1.66 WWE ROM. Had Android FroyoStone V2 running.
Have just sent my HD2 back to HTC after removing HSPL and reflashing with the 1.66 WWE ROM.
I did not install android on my device. Just the cookie ROM.
I reflashed the stock ROM and removed the HSPL and still no help. TMO told me to do a hard reset which didnt work either and they are sending me a new one 3-5 days to ship. Using a loaner phone.
I had the same problem last week. I was also running energy & android, reflash my HD2back to stock rom and got the screen replaced by HTC.
Don't know is it due to Android?
It happend to me yestorday, i dont have ganraty on my phone!!!!! dont know what to do!!! ;(
I had the same problem and I could not solve it . I dont know what to do. I allredy made un order for a new htc hd7 mobile from US.
I am fed up with official rom3.14. It has so many issues. Is there any way that I can downgrade it to starting rom 1.3 which I had when I unboxed it? I dont have any hspl or any thing else. I also dont know about it. This is my first upgrade!
stock roms
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=577717
try this thread, it should have whichever ROM you are looking for
or you can get adventurous and flash a custom ROM
youcan also download any official rom from HTC site. just install older official ROM and youll downgrade it.

If you want to flash a custom ROM then go check out the guide in my sig as it will tell you what HSPL is and how to flash it or revert it back to SPL. It also has links to how to install Android to NAND or WP7 if you want to go that route, plus it will give you some good knowledge on what everything is that is needed to do that.

I still have the 2.13 stock T-Mobile USA ROM that came on the phone.
I have not yet flashed to the newer one, only that I have not had the time, as it requires reinstalling and reconfiguring all apps, etc, afterwards, a big undertaking.
But I have intended to flash to the newer ROM, when I get around to it. All the reports I have read here and elsewhere have stated that the newer ROM is much improved.
Therefore, I am surprised to read that you find the new one much worse. Could you please explain, and tell us what you find worse about it?
Thank you.

Just to let you know if most of you apps com from the official Market Place it has an option when you go to my apps in the market app that gives you an option to download and install all of the apps you have install or purchased from the market either all at one time or one at a time if you want. Also the Omarket app has the same my apps option but you have to download and install them one by one on there. So if you go to a good WiFi spot you can have all of your apps back in hardly no time really. And if you have apps that you did not use either of these apps to download and install just download the cab file for the app and store them in a file on your SD card, I have one on my SD card named Cab files just in case I go back to Win Mo.
I tell you. Ilost option enble clear type and screen alignment. My compasonly shows direction the location and other features are gone. I have got storahe issue. My album evry time it opens it uses up 12mb of internal storage. I get 24 mb lost if I open my album twice. I had wallpaper_09 default in all tabs and after updating all tabs are horrible black! There is much more too... Without clear type the web pages look horrible!!!
