Hello
The HD2 is great but:
After installing a few programms (no matter which ones)
my HD2 gets into a reboot cycle.
I then have to hard reset to get the HD2 working again.
A few installations later I get the next reboot cycle.
What can I do?
I have tried 3 different cooked ROMS, but it's always the same.
Thanks best wishes Uli
think you´ve tried to flash an official Rom ?
Read HERE and follow the steps. You've installed a few custom ROMs before it happened right? Its because installing custom ROMs on top of each other can lead to errors that can cause problems like hard reset cycles. MTTY formats the storage before you flash your ROM making a nice clean canvas to write on to.
reboot cycle
Hello optiknerv
Thanks for your reply!
I had this problem from the very first ROM I flashed.
best wishes Uli
That happened to me too...
Take the battery out.
Take the memory card out.
Replace the battery and boot to the Today screen.
Put your memory card back in.
Should work fine.
It might be something to do with a recently installed app on the Storage Card, so remove those you've loaded lately and reinstall to Device?
I think it would help that before you flash a custom ROM you must flash first the stock one from which the custom was made and always perform two hard resets.

I've noticed that not all roms put what spl we should have, so is it safe to assume that 1.33.2005 good for the rom?
The rom I'm looking at is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=574526
Yes! Tried it myself
I think it's good for all roms, actually it might even be a prerequisite for all hero roms except micro hero.
Not 100 % sure of the latter though.
I just tried flashing the hero rom and it flashed just fine but after it got passed the mt3g splash it just repeated the hero and htc splash, I'm back on cyanogen, any ideas on how to get it working?
Did you wipe before you flashed? Also, the first boot can take a few minutes.
If it's neither lack of wipe or lack of patience I have no idea
It's lack of patience lol. I'll try flashing it again and wait this time.
Okay, well it's not lack of patience unless waiting 1 hour isn't long enough. Any body else have some ideas to get this working?
Kaptur mentioned it, but did you wipe before applying the update.zip ?
Yes I did.
Then I recommend you try another ROM, maybe evil D:'s sense/nano sense as apparently thats quick/stable.
it has to be a bad download or you need to wipe a couple more times I've wiped and it still did a boot loop before so try wiping at least3 times and /or try a new rom
I flashed 2 different heros after that, 1 of them i got the splash loop and evil's worked.
I usually find if a wipe then flash doesnt work, I just repeat the same procedure i.e pull battery, wipe and reflash then boot does the trick.
If all else fails repartition card and then flash, and if that doesnt work, i guess that rom isnt for you.
Im having this problem with nano sense.
I always wipe completely and recreate all partitions if im running a hero rom
Wouldn't recreating the partitions get rid of my apps? If not, I might try that.
Hi all, I suddenly have problems flashing roms and installing cabs...
This is the case with Dutty's rom, kumars rom and a few others (topix). They install fine but after installing my applications and restoring my pim data it hangs in the white boot screen (with the HTC text and red info about rom, radio and such in the bottom left).
Even after hard resetting this seems to be the case. It boots sometimes normally, sometimes it hangs on the orange windows screen, but in the end after setting up most of the stuff hanging on the white screen again. I haven't changed any cabs since my previous roms. Could apps be the cause of these issues?
Have flashed tons of roms already, mostly SSPL and since a day or 2 I installed HSPL to do the flashing. Could that have anything to do with it? Have been using this phone for a month and a half I think without any problems.
Going to flash one last time for tonight (work calling again in a few hrs :/) and only restore pim data to see how that goes...

Maybe your card is kind of "critical", making the flash kind of bad?
Didn´t have any issues with either Dutty´s, nor with topix...

Hmmm, my card? I flash from the pc... No card is used, also flashed the last time without sd card in it.
I also have flashed topix and dutys before and had no problems at all, I suddenly got issues after flashing Kumars rom (not blaming it! Plenty of ppl very happy with it!) and after that the same with others...
Meh, waiting for the sms-hotfix to finish installing now. Just finished flashing again and restoring data (and installing a few cabs). Hopefully I can actually start using it again, at least until the weekend.
I think what he means is try to reformat your card. Even though you flash with PC some of the newer HTC Sense with Documents tab write and read data from the storage card. If it is corrupted or bad it can cause a lot of problems.
I have had this happen twice in the past and the format cleared the problem.

Ah ok, haven't installed the versions with the document tab though but worth a try I guess.
Otherwise I'll reflash the Turkish 1.61 WWE (or was it the t-mobile 2.01 version) rom again and reflash roms from there. Perhaps I'll flash with the SSPL again to see if that makes a difference.
Phone still working for now, hardly installed anything and just restored pim data. Guess I'll leave it like that for now :/
Hmmm, I now flashed a firmware using the SD card method and that seems to have worked fine... Hope it's fixed now.

I encounter similar problem like you did .....
Apparently .... it doesn't always happen.
But when it happens .... it just keep stucked at the white boot up screen.
So end up I have to flashed the new ROM again.

This has been happening to me quite frequently. I am not sure why this is happening. I am flashing Stock ROM and try to flash the Cooked ones.
I DO NOT want to go the Mitty way and screw up my device if something goes wrong. So I hope the Stock flash would help me this time around. I just flashed the 1.66 Stock ROM and am planning to flash Dutty's 1.3 WWE to see how it goes. Hope this would fix the issue.
I guess my device is taking the hit with the ROM flashings. Got to rest my baby with a stable ROM for a while.

MTTY is a mess. do not touch it.
flashing a stock ROM didn't helped me. maybe the SD card is to blame...hope so!

Excellent choice. This is what I did to refresh my HD2 from all the flashing in the past 4 days:
1. Flash back to the Shipped ROM (hopefully you have a copy of the shipped ROM, someone posted a link to the thread here somewhere)
Important!!! Make sure you have the RIGHT Shipped ROM. I made a mistake thinking my ROM was WWE Europe when it was WWE Asia. Got an error flashing (since it was looking for the right CID, etc.) but I got it sorted out. (I couldn't even get to the white htc splash... only bootloader mode)
2. Flashing to the shipped ROM apparently triggers a "task 28" like MTTY state, restoring your HD2 to stock (formatting, etc.)
3. Now that your back to Stock, re-run HSPL
4. Download you favorite Cooked ROM and start Flashing like Day 1
Optional Step 5. When you've found the ROM you plan to stick with Then my customizations begin (Manila tweaks, Reg Tweaks, App Tweaks, App Installs, etc.) (I am currently on a very stable Cooked ROM... YMMV of course...)
Optional Step 6. Backup using SPB or Sprite and keep backup handy so when I need to reflash or hard reset (assuming its the same ROM or maybe a slight upgrade) I just run my backup and get back up and running in no time.
Happy Flashing everyone!
Hi,
I hope you can help.
I recently changed the ROM on my HTC HD2 to the Cruzer series. This worked fine. However, since the rom change, the phone itself has since been stuck in safe mode for all my Android Builds.
I have tried everything to get out of it, by holding down the menu and power keys on boot up, taking out the battery and leaving it out. I have also re-flashed the phone with the new wm ROMs several times, but it's still the same for me in Android
Do you think this is a genuine fault with the phone, or is it something to do with the Rom change and how to get out of safe mode? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Backup your sd card, then delete the old data.img out of the Android folder. There may have been something happen that makes it boot into safe mode.
You will loose all your setttings, contacts and apps installed and it will take a long time for the 1st boot as it is making a new data.img. This might help. At the very least you are assured that it is or isn't the data.img. And as you backed up its easy to replace if it still boots in safe mode.
ultramag
Thanks for the advice. I will try your suggestion. I have tried to reload numerous builds though, since this problem has plagued my android please. All of them complete re installs. With safe mode returning each time.
Marsbar
If the data.img isn't the culprit maybe the SD card needs to be formatted. I use the format utility in winmo (fd10 format utility if it isnt included in your winmo rom search the forums to download it). Just backup all your data, format it, and then load it back up. Hope this helps.
Hello dear forum users.
I need your thoughts and advices on my problem.
I'm closely following the Android development on HD2 and learned nearly all methods accept "CLK".
What I recently realize is when I try to install a custom Anroid ROM I'm watching logcat and I mostly see that its giving some errors not always the same error but sometimes it stops after Iampc's(correct me if I'm wrong) sound script and starts bootloop and some times it installs without giving any errors but when it boots is giving lots of FC's after I entered the PIN or sometimes before entering the PIN. Some times it seems to load everything OK but when I turn my phone off and on again it is giving me the sound script bootloop, or not booting at all or sometimes it starts checking or reinstalling the .apks.
I've tried tytungs NexusHD, Tyween's CM mod, ponster's Hyperdroid, crawlingcity's UD etc... I tried lots off android roms and errors are the same.
I'm doing task 29, magldr 1.13, CWRmod, althoug I've fromatted the sd and partitioned it wih CWR I also did wipes of factory reset, cache and dalvik, than rom installation but results are the same.
I tried with different micro sd's and partitioning with cwm and under linux etc. etc..
I tried installing without the sd-ext partitioning and its still the same.
I've tried installing the winmo rom Energy and it setups and loads ok.
I really don't understand what is causing this and it is really making me angry.
I don't think it is related to the hardware because than winmo should give me the same kind of errors but it is not.
Does anyone faced this kind of behaviours? Please share your ideas and thoughts. Thank you.

Thank you for your advice. I don't know but I'll try to see if its really about the bad blocks. Thank you again.
I don't think my problem is about the bad blocks in the nand. Because what is funny is that I can flash the imilka's ROM's without any problems.
And one more think I realized is that I'm facing this problem with the gingerbread ROMs. I guess they are sharing something and I can not delete them so I'm facing these problems. I think it is really about that you can not delete the nand fully or format it with task 29.
Becuase I realized that when I change ROMs although I've wiped several times I'm getting errors but If I flash the ROM after flashing the original HTC ROM I don't get the same errors. So I guess what we really need is a better tool to wipe and format the NAND for us.
I don't know if this is possible.

In fact, I still can use Imilka's, Rafdroid and few other Nandroid ROM
But, I dont want to make it worse knowing that there is some badblock(because I want to sell it)
So, I am back with Winmo and SD Android. It is much safer for me

Dear xda users,
My Girlfriend got a HD2 and I installed Android on it.
She used SD versions but she kills them everytime.
After a month the phone got stock on boot screen.
Then i tried to install NAND Roms but after 2 months of smooth running the same problem again... (example: Coredroid, and sense roms)
I think that the problem is that when the phone freeze she pull the battery out and after a few times the phone won't boot anymore.
Followed all the noob friendly guides.
Followed all the instructions in the post of every rom.
Installed the recommed radio, MAGDLR, CMW, data partions that were in the instructions
Common problem on sense roms?
Should i try to install no sense rom?
(Got experience with Desire HD flashing and Touch pro 2)

Hi,
It could be that with all the battery pulling, that the pins could be bent.
Make sure they are all straight.
Buy her an iphone, then she can't pull the battery! :-D

I don't think it's hardware related.. Because i can boot in the MAGLDR without any problems.. But when i wan't to boot android it hangs on the coredroid boot logo
(This happends with all roms (sense) i tried so far)
Boot into magldr and re run the rom from there,cleare the caches firsr ot course
Then glue the battery in - buy a tazer and promise her a double dose if she pulls the battery again
lol, hahaha

ive seen a few posts where people have struggled with getting past boot logo, think it was fine after using a different partition in recovery but as your device is for the sd build am not quite sure how that works as Ive never had sd android or if having sd requires clockwork mod recovery? if so try different partition as i said earlier if not hang on till someone has the answer

haha great answer, my girlfriend doesn't touch my hd2 or she gets alot more than a double dose with the tazer method, HD2 is not the solution for a women... you take the hd2 of her and buy her a iphone surly they are women material.

Problems almost always occur after a few weeks or months of use for me, just reflash the ROM, and you'll good to go.
removing the battery is not recommended, it can corrupt files on the sd-card. Try to boot without sd-card and see if it helps. If your ROM does boot, it means the SD card is corrupted, you can try to backup the SD card and restore it after completely wiping the sd-card.
If your rom doesn't boot, than it meant there's something else going on, maybe corrupted flash, so reflash and try again. This will delete all your data, so be careful
if your girlfriend is not an daily flasher also might i suggest using a daf build. All the configuration is done for you. if you are using a sd build from magldr than make sure you change the name of the build than edit the startup txt like this "rel_path=whatever you name the build(example: "rel_path=MIUIROM nand_boot=1") the 1 for magldr 0 for windows 6.5. the reason for me saying this is all android builds create a folder android when they boot up with all your info like data and cache is in there. So its best to separate the two just in case you want to boot up more than two builds from sd.
Same here.
could be a bad block in your NAND memory. you can check this with cLK and fastboot.
see this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13600733&postcount=9
i checked mine and there was a bad block in the userdata. i think that is wy my phone was freezing.
now i have flashed cLK and untill now its working great!
