Camera missing - Touch HD General

After couple of ROM installations my camera disappears. Any idea.......???

Same thing happened to me
Well my friend, the same thing happened to me after updating my HD with the latest ROM from HTC. I posted the problem a couple of weeks ago but nobody replied to it. I did some searches on the forum and found other people with the same problem. Unfortunately the only solution seems to be sending the phone back to HTC for repair. Not sure what they do to the phone to repair it could be SW or HW. I also found a guy with the same problem that was looking for a new camera mudule to replace it although I'm not sure if his camera stoped working after flashing the phone. In any case I can tell you that I tried to fix it by flashing the phone back to its original ROM but it didn't worked. Good Luck and let me know if you find anything. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Hi, i have the same problem. I try to change ROM back, try flash some cooked ROMs, but steel not working. I sent phone to HTC service on friday and i write HTC's solution after delivery from service... sorry for my english

Wizard Earpiece stopped working, Please Help.......

Hey Guys, the new "OFFICIAL" ROM has been great!!! Unfortunately the last two days I started to encounter a problem with the earpiece of my 9100 not funtioning, what I mean is that I can only recieve and make calls via speakerphone. I'm not too sure what thread saw it in, but I believe I recall other people running into this problem(cant exactly say for sure if it was ROM related.) I was just wondering if anyone ever experienced this after the install of the latest ROM. I have installed the same exact programs to the same exact place as my original ROM(which never had this problem). Could this be hardware related? :?: I hope some one could shed some light on this, I would greatly appreciate it. My last resort is to due a hard reset, and if that does'nt work ship it out for warranty repairs. Also I have not dropped or mishandeled my device in any way.

Broken Vibrate?

I got my blackstone yesterday. Excitedly opened it up, fiddled with it a while, and flashed a new rom. It was a while before i realised that the phone woudlnt vibrate. Im pretty sure its a hardware fault, but just wanted to check here to make sure I havent missed something.
The phone wont vibrate, even when being called / txted with vibrate mode on. I also understand the hardware buttons are sposed to have some kind of haptic feedback or minivibrate, but this doesent work either.
I searched through all the settings, and couldnt find any magical turn on vibrate feature buttton. Vibrate notification is definately turned on, and so is the vibrate profile. I inittialy installed Panoshas Black Pearl rom. I tried a hard reset, and then also flashed the Dutty rom, and finally the original rom to see if it that worked.
Can anyone point out an obvious mistake ive made? Or am I gonna have to send my lovely blackstone back?
Thnx in advance.
Hmmm...you've already tried flashing a new rom and if you still have the same problem, send it in. It's still spanking new, shouldn't be a problem getting it rectified....or better yet ....replaced!
Was it vibrating when you recieve it, on it's original ROM ?

I only noticed that it wasnt after I flashed the rom, so altho im fairly certain i dont remember it ever vibrating, i cant be absolutely certain.

thnx for your response, i think ill probably do that.
its pretty annoying to have to send it back already lol, but its worth it to have a working vibrate.
A Second Opinion
Yep, I got my Blackstone a week ago today and it vibrated just fine out the box. I have not flashed any new ROMs, but I have installed plenty of programs including .net 3.5 and mobilmagic button stuff and hd tweak, installed and uninstalled advanced config and a few keyboards, the list goes on. Long story short, my vibrate doesn't work either! I think this is due to my tampering with it though, I really do. Also, I saw another post where someone had the same problem, he ended up getting his to work after playing with .net 3.5, hard resetting more than once and soft resetting too. So try that, let me know what you find out! I plan to hard reset and flash new ROMs soon, so I figured maybe these problems would go away then. Oh and, anybody else have a problem where their end key doesn't end the call, ? This is such a tinkerer's toy, lol!
Probably a good warning about flashing ROMs! Did you backup your original ROM? I think you will need to restore your original ROM before you send it back for "repair". (Otherwise it is likely you will be charged for any work/replacement - justifiably!)
Before you despair, what ROM did you flash it with? Have you contacted the developer about it? It may be a setting in a tweak you don't know you've installed. Have you tried playing Tweeter (the vibration feedback when the ball collides with a wall will indicate a working/non-working vibrator).
Rather than just offer bad news to you and tell you it's your own fault, here is a helpful tut on How to backup ROM, albeit a little late maybe. It may not be all doom and gloom - some kind soul may be able to offer you their backup ROM (particular to your mobile provider) which you can use to restore it to factory default before testing for the vibrate and/or sending it back for a fix. Who is your provider and what original ROM do you need?

thanks for the tip. i fiddled with .net framework 3.5 and more hard resets, and altho i have installed hdtweak and advconfig a couple times, ive done multiple clean flashes without them and it still dont work. in fact - as i said above, im 90% sure it never did work, so im convinced its a hardware fault.
i hope yours wroks after a rom flash, but i think mine is gonna have to go back...

yeah - i definately played tweeter even before flashing any roms, and there was no vibrate - so i guess that proves it really is the hardware.
i bought my phone from mobilephonesdirect, but have my rom backed up, so should be ok.
ta for the offer tho.
Mine was the opposite, it wouldn't stop vibrating, even when switched off.
You had to take the battery out to get it to stop.

You could try and use TouchResponse. That program gives a vibration response with every touch on the screen. If not, indeed send it in.

sadly ive tried that as well and no dice...
im pretty sure I have the same problem
hey, I have the same problem and hard resetting and all that didn't help. Where did you buy yours, think they came from the same place? Are you sending back to HTC, how quickly did they say they could fix it and send it back?
Thanks

got mine from
mobilephonesdirect.co.uk
havent been able to get throught them on the phone yet.
ill keep you updated if you want.
I appreciate that
yes I would love for you to keep me updated, I purchased mine through ebay from addictedtophones.com, which is out of California. They seemed like nice people but they sure aren't wanting to help my broken vibrate after only 8 days! That is just sad my friend. I have also contacted UK and US support and HTC global repair service. They have indicated that they are looking in to it. Apparently the US section may not have the resources to work on the device. I requested that they replace the phone, if they couldn't work on it ASAP, the person seemed to agree and put the request forward. I hope that helps your situation. I spent too much for a broken stone!

updated
I received my new replacement Touch HD in the mail a little bit ago, it vibrates. It must have been a hardware issue best I can tell. I just about had to send it off to HTC, but I finally got the retailer to replace it. It actually took a lot of crap just to get HTC USA GLOBAL repair center to want to accept the idea but, I called UK HTC and they called HQ in Taiwan or somewhere and got something done. So if you need some help, Ive got a few contacts that can help, anyone can just let me know. I hope this doesn't become a widespread infection.

I'd say it's probably a hardware issue. My first HD also didn't vibrate, and had to exchange for a new one. Probably some issues with one of the batches.

TOUCH HD keeps turning itself off

Hi Guys, i have a strange Problem since a couple of days.
The touch HD turns itself off after some minutes. I have to take out the battery and put it back in, otherwise it will not turn on...
i have:
- deactivated automatic shut down in power settings
- deactivated today timeout
- tried hardreset
- tried another rom (currently dutties final)
no success :-(
i have absolutlely no clue what could cause this and how i can fix it...
help is highly appreciated.
hello there , actually maby its a virus or there is problem in SPL
Try to install again the SPL modified and tell me
best regards
ms4cah
unlikely it has anything to do with SPL. it was fine for months, i had not flashed or installed anything.
it seams dead now by the way. i cannot turn it on again.
i also tried a new battery. it doesnt even charge, no light at the power button. nothing.

Sounds like a warranty claim
I am getting the same problem!! is there anything i can do to fix this? anyone figured out the reason?
I had this sort of problem.
The HD would hang, then switch off, then to get back on I had to remove the battery for a while. Sometimes it worked after a minute, other times I had to leave the battery disconnected for longer.
So I performed a hard reset and it switched itself off during boot (after successfully resetting).
Battery out for a while.
H/R once more. Again crashed during boot but not at the same point as previous.
Tried a different battery with a full charge - same result.
Tried to re-flash a "very popular" custom ROM with USPL. Got to 1% and error. This was because the HD had crashed..
Tried to flash the official HTC ROM and it got to 15% and error. HD crash.
So I have contacted HTC and they are sending a courier to collect it so they can take a look with a view to repairing it.
The last ROM I successfully loaded about 2 weeks prior to the start of my problems was a custom win mo 6.5 rom. As I couldn’t get it to a stable state - I couldn’t flash the official HTC ROM.
I’ve convinced myself it’s a hardware fault rather than any software damage..
Although I fear I’ll be in for some bad news.
mine too
Hi,
I have the same problem.
Mine was doing hard reset and after a day or two the same problem.
Now I cannot turn it on.
I will send it to htc...
Crossing my fingers.
I had the same problem with mine...
While turned on, it automaticly tryed to turn of, as if something was pressing the on/off buttom. Everytime that message for turning it off poped up and I just couldn't control the on/off button anymore.
I tryed everything and nothing worked. It really seemed a hardware and warranty claim issue. However, since I bought it abroad and it does not have warranty here in Brazil, I just decided to sell it (obviously warning the buyer about the issue) and to buy another one (which is working as a charm).
It is a hardware issue, for sure...
So my HD has been away at HTC for nearly a week, and im currently tracking its return journey, due to land back here at some point this morning.
I have had no contact from HTC so its going to be a suprise as to whether anything has been repaired.
My hope was they couldn't turn it on at all - thus replacing the bits n bobs inside, replacing the main board containing my 6.5 ROM.
So for now im hoping "no news will be good news", but I will update this when I have it back.
... I've the same problem...
Hi, I've the same problem. Do you have any solutions?

Just recieved delivery. The service report states:
1. Diagnosis
2. Replace Main Board
3. Function Test
Result
Confirms it was a H/W fault and my "flashing" did not effect the warranty status. That may have been because they couldnt get far enough to confirm so.

Other than a Warranty repair, im afraid not. Try your best to get it back to HTC official software, then report it as no power / cant boot.

Good to know, confirmed h/w issue
i simply deactivated automatic shut down in power settings as mentioned in the first post and unistalled a couple of new programs i had recently installed!!
Not quite sure which of the above worked.. but atleast for now it seems to be working fine!! the screen has not turned off by itself and i have not had to remove battery etc to get it to work again!
I'm not quite sure if the problem is properly fixed but it has been a few days since anything occurred!! so fingers crossed!!
mine was doing this last tuesday, each time i went into my pocket for it, it was turned off, then i hard to do the reset pin or remove the battery, it has been ok since, i just thought, maybe it was me, pushing it in my jeans i might be turning it off.
also using duttys popular 6.5 latest rom, i dont think its fair to blame his rom, as mines ok now, maybe i should reflash it again?? im still waiting for a new version to be released.... JESUS!!! just looked it up to r12, im on r9 .
oh no... no it not..... says to go here, and it will be released here and not on dutty throy???

FYI, Throy is releasing roms exclusively to HTCPedia now, so no future roms will be released on either XDA or www.duttythroy.com
wow!!! i never knew!!!! thats crazy as his own site duttythroy wont be used.
im getting it now, but only 11 when it says 12 is out, either way, i will still flash i love the roms, i will be sure to be on all the site, incase theres another change of heart??
anyway guys i will report if i noticed the shutdown thing happening again with the version. 4mins till downloaded.....
I think theres a couple of different issues here. My own problem was due to faulty parts in the hardware itself. Absolutley nothing to do with any ROM, only reason I mentioned them was because of the invalid warranty possibility.
If your problem was ROM related, Im sure in the relevant ROM thread, there would be many people (everyone) with the same issue. Thats not to say that its not some sort of conflicting software you may have installed after the ROM flash.
Some simple troubleshooting steps:
1. Hard reset - If it still has a problem...
2. Flash Official HTC ROM - If still a problem...
Phone HTC.
All the best, hope you manage to get something to work for you. I know how lost I felt without mine!

Your exactly right. Some people experience similar symptoms which are rom related others have same problem which is hardware related. One can only be fixed by HTC as motherboard problem, other can be rectified by different means without having to send device back for repairs
Hi again,
Today I have received an sms from HTC service informing me that my HD has a circuit problem and they will fix it without any charge.
I have to wait.

Touchscreen unresponsive, help needed

Hi guys,
I searched the forum for this and didn't find any threads that had an answer so i thought I'd ask for your help. This morning for no apparent reason the touchscreen on my HD2 (stock ROM) stopped responding, everything else is working fine but the screen is just not registering anything.
I tried flashing a couple of custom ROMs but that didn't do the trick, it's now been a whole day where I can't use my phone. I've had this happen to me once before but after a few hours it started working again (also for no reason). This time though it doesn't seem to be fixing itself.
Anyone has any suggestions, hints or tips before I send it back for repair?
all i can say is to make sure it is flashed with stock rom and no custom spl is present when you send it back!
Thanks for the tip, I'll definitely do so. To be honest I was hoping there is a fix that doesn't involve a repair since i bought the phone on craigslist (yeah I know silly me) and there is no warranty. So I'm guessing HTC will hammer me on the price.
you may be able to find a replacement digitiser as it sounds as if that is what is faulty on your device.
Im not sure if anyone has succesfully replaced a digitiser on an hd2 just yet though.
there are a few posts around where people have tried to do the entire screen array, lcd included but i dont know if they were succesful.
would be great to find a service manual for the leo
i just had a thought aswell... if you have no warranty then you may aswell save flashing the device back to stock... you will be charged for repair anyway!
This problem has been discussed several times on XDA. You should search for "touchscreen" or "touch screen" to see the various problems people have had. There doesn't appear to be much you can do about your particular problem.
My HD2 had the same problem when it got hot for any reason (while charging or if it was a hot day). Putting it in the fridge to cool it down helped. You can try that if you like...
Seriously - if you can repeat the problem on the phone, send it back for replacement. The phone is no good to you like that.
Thanks for all the replies, it looks like I will have to send it in... sigh... Let's see how much HTC will charge me.
By the way I tried the fridge thing after reading about it on this forum. Didn't work.

HD2 camera stopped working

hello i'm not too sure if anyone has had this problem before(yes i did do a search), but the camera on my phone has stopped working all of a sudden, it's as if the phone doesn't recognize the camera since all the shortcuts for it are gone and when adding pictures to contacts the option to take a photo is gone too If anyone could help a newb with this problem it would be greatly appreciated. Also sadly i cannot return the phone to tmobile or even send back to htc since it was given to me as a gift and I have no paperwork to prove the purchase.
Are you running a stock ROM?
yes stock rom, the phone was working perfectly until a week ago I can't think of any apps that could've caused this since the only thing installed was resco file explorer. I did however try using one of the early ports of android on it but that shouldn't be the problem since everything was on the memory card
hard reset time.
I've done a hard reset at least 4 times by now to no avail even updated the rom using the latest one on t-mobile us web site
you can try contacting HTC support in the US directly, since all US HD2's are still less than a year old, they might be willing to help...I think you're at the point you need to replace it or get it repaired since it already hasn't cleared up with the hard-resets.
