can any1 help me out here i just bought an 8525 for 80 off a co-worker he didnt want it because it keeps turning off on him i think its a few loose connections...theres a bit of play in with the battery but anyhow changed batteries same thing so any one know what part i should be replacing and also where i can get parts for this phone. i have tried looking on the site that i use for my other phones but all i find are screens and black housings so if you guys can help me out i'd love it
anyone im looking at it right now and all seems well and i tested the battery on a different fone and everything is green just cant figure it out. also just found out that my jogwheel is broken
That could explain why the co-worker sold it to you for 80 bucks.. .. you might be able to find parts on Ebay .. see if anyone is selling one with a busted screen or something..
thats exactly ehy i got for 80 i knew what it was just hoping for an easy fix i do repairs tho so no biggie just gotta find the parts thanks ill start looking once my ass friend gets off myspace!!!
It can't be a "loose connection" unless the solder from the battery connectors came loose because he battery connectors are connected right to the board.
thats one thing i noticed also the prong look like they have been squished down almost flat instaed of < they are more - but not that bad and there is quite a bit of playu from the battery compared to my good 8525 oh well maybe i can come up on a third and swap out parts. thanks for the help guys any other suggestion i have already kinda fixed the prongs. and now the phone wont even turn on this suck but i know this can be fixed

I dealt with a similar case a while back. Going off randomly. In his case it turned out it was the battery connections. They had lost some of their spring tension and he was unwilling to try bending them out a little for fear of causing more damage. In the end we decided that he would try placing a strip of card between the battery and the casing on the side opposite to the battery connections. ie. to press the battery more firmly against the connectors. How thick it would need to be would depend on how squashed the connectors are.
It worked for him and he decided just to leave it in place.

If you cant fix it let me know. I need the vibrate motor. And no im not kidding
I am going to be buying a universal (o2 XDA Exec) however it has got a couple of things wrong with it.
1 being the stylus is loose (which i have read is a common problem but there is a stylus which sits snuggly apparently so will try that)
and 2 being the phone cutting out when you use battery intensive things like WiFi. the battery apparently doesnt last very long either
so do you reckon the solution will just be buying a new battery? or flashing a new rom?
Thanks
The chance for you to fix that kind of problems with a new battery is about as high as it can be.
it seems the new battery has fixed the problem
Many people have problems with Universal battery, if you are going to buy new battery, buy chinese with more mAh. Look on eBay.
i bought a 1750mAh from uk works perfectly
the stylus falling out problem i fixed by putting 2 layers of sellotape around it
I am using HTC HD2 since last 1 year..Its out of warranty right now & I recently flashed "ANDROI_PPC-SHIFTPDA_GingerBread_2.3.2_WP7S_V1_NAND_(07.Feb)" & it was all working fine unless yesterday when my 7 months old labrador chew the top right corner of my phone while it was in d cover..Got a slight crack in the glas/lcd..However it is still functional..I mean no color spill or abnormal behaviour in terms of display..except the touch screen has stopped working now..I've tried hard reset..soft reset several times but it doesn't seem to be working...Its driving me insane & I dont know what to do as my phone is out of warrranty...I remember I had a TyTN II 2-3 years ago & got its lcd split/broken somehows & HTC service center charged me INR 4000 / USD $88 to replace it...Though times have changed & HD2 definitely is a much complex device comparatively..So would cost me much more if i give it to them...Just went thru a video on youtube "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdihThJFyz4" in which tutorial for HTC leo's screen & digitizer replacement is mentioned. Im really not sure where the problem lies. Because it was perfectly fine till yesterday before i woke up this morning & realized that my dog has done a lil munching on my HD2..Any suggestions ???
I think that your only options are to put it in for repair and shell out however much its gonna cost, or try and fix it yourself by replacing the digitizer. Theres not really any way to know how much damage you hungry dog did though.
If it was me I'd stop buying food for the dog and use that money to pay for the repair.
Good luck
This is my mates HTC Desire HD, he keeps it in an Official HTC case which covers the full screen and is very careful with it.
A mark has appeared on the middle of the screen which as you can see in the video is really annoying. He has not dropped it, nor hit it with anything.
Anyone got any ideas, or have had the same problem??
Here is a very small video which demonstrates the issue that I placed on YouTube.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTtFHV2IdNA
Looks like he has either sat on it or had soemthing heavy pressing on the center of the screen. Either way it looks as if the LCD layer is sitting too close to the digitiser and even the slightest pressure on the screen causes that distortion.
I'm not aware of a fix other than a new digitiser maybe.
Contact the dealer. Maybe you're friend can get an replacement (Y)
Update... turns out over the weekend my mate took out the extended battery (he had to use tweezers to get it out!).
He had purchased from an Ebay seller from a UK seller (not an official HTC battery though). It was a 1600mah battery.
The issue went instantly.
Looking at the 1600mah battery, its curved!
So beware everyone, get an official battery! Or risk screwing up your touchscreen!
Thats interesting . First time I have heard a battery casuing screen problems.

I have yet to read a successful hi-cap battery story... makes me wonder whether HTC has ensured the H/W cant use anything beyond the specs.

TS said that the battery was curved so it was prolly pushing against the inside of the phone onto the panel
Hi just joined as its my phone in question
The battery has bulged very slightly in the middle so that if you placed it on a flat surface either way up you can rock it in any direction. I reckon its approx 2mm thicker on either side in the middle than at the edge
Signs were there over the past few weeks as it wasn't lasting as long on each charge and no-where near as long as the original HTC HD battery which is now back in the phone.
As to the High capacity one its a generic battery i.e. no mfr markings on the black and white label
Details say
"Replacement for HTC Desire HD" on two lines in top left corner
"Li-on 3.7V" in top right
"3.7VDC 1600mAh" below that and CE logo next to that
You will find the battery sold at lots of places online (both UK and international) as the picture from the UK seller I bought it from was by no means unique.
You better buy a second original battery from HTC.
5 mins ago i read about buying a nonHTC battery with higher capacity and I nearly ordered it. Good thind I found this thread.
Thank you

I´m so freaked out with my T9193, she stopped working... It has made me so sad, I really love my little jewel...
First I suffered the infamous unresponsive screen issue, but I had it repaired, actually it has a new OEM digitizer and LCD, but there is no output at all: the screen keeps blank (black). You can tell the phone is on because of the bright of the screen, the starting vibration an charging orange light...
I know it works because I Task29 it and flashed original shipped ROM (Telstra´s), and everything went ok as I could see in my laptop.
The main idea was to sell it as parts or very cheap in order to buy an Inspire 4G, but.... well you know what: it is a HD2! and even more, it is a T9193! Bought directly in Australia and shipped to my country... I feel like part of an elite jaja...
So, my question is, what do you think: an Inspire 4G or another T9193?....
Thnx
have you tried entering the bootloader? Maybe you should get it repaired. I suspect something is wrong with the motherboard. Alternatively, it could also be the case that the LCD is not working. I had the exact same problem with my Touch HD last time around. I sent it for repair(it was on warranty) and HTC changed the motherboard. Im sure repairing it is cheaper than getting a new HD2(unless you are going for a used one). Besides, you might wanna consider getting the evo 3d/galaxy s ii instead of the inspire 4g?(its your personal preference...but im just saying...) Hope your phone comes back alive in full glory! I know how it feels when your treasured device is in a coma. I experienced it with my Touch HD and i also experienced it with my HD2 recently, when it spun for 10 mins in the washing machine.But everything is ok and its breathing fire now!
Thanks for your comments kawshigan.
Actually I was able to flash it entering to bootloader (pressing volume down while turning on), but I couldn´t see it on the phone screen, so it seems to be just the LCD....I think...

well,if you were able to flash it,there is a high chance that the motherboard and the flash is working. So,it could be either the LCD or the BUS. But for the latter, if you send it to HTC for repair, they will still replace the whole motherboard regardless of a broken BUS or chipset...its just a way of making money...but if that can revive your HD2, you should go for it
