Whats wrong with my HD2 ?
its a dead touch display. Mine did the same on friday, so its on it way back for a service.
if u notice your display does not respond to you touching it. It turns down the ligth after a few seconds and it should go back up when you touch it. But it does not sence you doing that.
So send it back for a fix under warrenty.
Before you do try a realignment of the screen.
I have the exact same problem! Its been buggin me for weeks, been too lazy to return it yet.
Actually i think its a connector problem to the digitizer, i have found that if you give the HD2 a thud with your hand or launch it into your bed the digitizer will work correctly for a while.

Where is that option?
Start -> Settings -> Menu -> All Settings -> Settings -> Screen
But - i had HD2 with lost sensitivity on left side (~1cm of screen was insensitive at all) from 1st day after buy. Covered by warranty, fixed (seems i got the same phone - S/N, IMEI, firmware version, just did hard reset).

similar problem here, the difference is that my slider can move to either left or right as normal but the mobile cannot be unlocked. I have to do the soft reset to use it.
See my footer. My HD2 touch screen died totAlly this week. Was an import 9193 so no warranty. I'm waiting. For the Desire HD now, so got two little Aria for a bit.

Hi all,
I have my P3600 for only 1 month. The touch screen suddenly has no response without any reasons.
I have tried soft and hard reset but with no luck. Is there any hold button/fuction at the P3600?
Can you guys please help and give your expert advise.
Thanks.
Dennis
Anybody please.
The buttons are functioning just the touch screen had not any response
are you using a screenprotector?
ifnot youll probably need to rma it
You have notice that the menu start pop up with no reason?
Try to place the trinity in a very cold place and tell me if the touch screen function again.
I find that in a warm place some trinity simulates the press of the upper corner sx pixel, so in this case the touch screen not respond and the menu start pop up frequently.
i have this problem, my trinity open the more start menu and the screen not respose. Only recover this problem is remove the battery and wait more hour.....
I have this problem also, bring back to service centre and they said the LCD might me the cause of the problem, replace it under warrenty.
Could you post the S/N and the radio/rom version of the device with the "start menù" problem?
Unfortunatelly I have this same problem, I have read on the internet that when the trinity gets hot it does this because some parts of it extends and puts pressure on the screen top left corner.
I don't know how to fix it but it is a relief that I am not the only one having this problem. I don't know what the fix is but this problem basically renders the phone useless for me.
If anybody has resolved this issue with HTC please let us know.
I don't think it's a pressure problem on the screen.
I have the same problem also with the phone totally open and the screen free of the upper cover.
I have the same problem.
It's not a LCD Screen problem because i have replaced LCD screen with a new but it's the same problem.
Perhaps touch screen controller on motherboard or touch screen driver (dll) in the ROM.
I think it's linked with the following problem :

If I change the viewing mode sidewards, it is the calendar button that pops up all the time., and opens the calendar again and again. You can not control it anymore. Just X all the time. Seems to be software or ?

I wonder if this screen problem is going to be a time bomb for everyone. I don't think it has anything to do with the new ROMs as it is a hardware problem.
I hope it's not like the peeling thing. One started complaining and ten days later everybody was facing the same problem.

Could you explain for what you want to know serial number? This can help or just for statistics? Maybe then everybody will be glad to do it.
I bought the device on Feb 3rd,
and it started on march 3rd when playing a 'tetris like' game. It always opened the 'new game' button on the bottom left, while playing.
I must say, it does not occur constantly! There are times I use my p3600 and it is completly normal. But then just as from ghosts hand the task that is combined with the button in the 'left top corner' (upright position) starts to be pushed.

Simple:i'm trying to understand if it's a problem of specified p3600,or if it's a problem that occurs randomly in all the p3600!
Ok. Lets collect same statistic but lets do it organized. For example my data.
Rom: 1.15.405.5 (HTC) - official (or modified by somebody)
Radio: 1.20.00.11
s/n: HT645FK08xxx
CID/SIM Unlock: No (or "Yes" if you did it and with which method - IMEI or FreeUnlocker)
Screen Protector: Yes ("Brando" mat for Qtek s110/S200)
Issue: "Start" menu pop up very seldom (seldom,often,very often,constantly) while I use stylus to scroll items of field "Play sound" of "Clock&Alarms" Settings, switch "iLauncher" tabs, play "MasterSoft Sudoku" (I list all places where I find out my issue) and I need to tap to "Start" or other place of the screen to close it.
I do not do CID/SIM Unlock and I do not reflash any ROMs. My current ROM is the ROM that was then I purchase P3600.
Hey I have an elf the T mobile version 64/128mb , phone has been working for 8 months now all of a sudden it wont respond but the call and end call buttons work fine the 4 way navigation key only work when lets say you go into the call records by pressing the green call button. You cannot do anything besides change time, answer calls and hang up. Please Help Tried hard reset soft reset, and the phone is unlocked to all networks using the network key method.
this looks a hardware problem may be the LCD or the digitizer
Is it fixable by software or maybe opening it up to fiddle ?
It is not the LCD, it is only the digitizer (the thing that is responsible for the 'touch') I recently had the same problem, until 1 week ago I purchased a new digitizer off eBay for $15.
Do not get LCD and Digitizer, just the digitizer to save money.
If there is no cracks or damage to the screen (bad cracks, pixel damage etc) you only need a digitizer.
I have a video I made of me changing mine which I'm editing atm. I do have photos.
This is the correct response. It is not software if it started to work occassionally and then stop, this is what happened to mine. 99% it is digitizer!
Thats cool please email me link [email protected] for your video I will order one now.

See the 3rd result.
Hey I read its going to ttake 14 days for my digitizer to come , in the mean time is there a way I can bypass the touch the screen alignment page when you first boot up?
you can get www.mymobiler.com
Cheers.
Tried it but requires you to accept the installation on the phone any other ideas?
Thats weird, mine doesnt.
it will auto install.
It says on the little status box installing mymobile to the phone then it dissappears saying not connect. this message comes up everytime you try and run it.
Sorry, I ran out of brain juice.
You have to stick with this for a while than, and bear the bitter pill.
MyMobiler should be able to install onto the phone itself.
But I really wonder why this doesnt work.
Hey thanks anyway found this whiel browsing aroudn on the internet fixed the problem it aligns the screen for you http://216.139.221.18/downloads/mobile_speak_pocket/release/MSP_RemoteAlignment.zip

and it does auto install its the part where it asks you to accept remote.exe and you have to tap yes or no for it to run on your device, havent bypassed that yet but atleast I can just accept calls and check texts but let me know if you have a solution for the whole remote.exe thing

Hi guys,
This evening something wring happened with my HD2. Suddenly without any visible reasons touch screen stopped working. Actualy screen itself is working but it doesn't react on any touches. I did hard reset - no luck, screen is working but touch surface isn't, so basically my phone is almost dead :-(
Have you seen this behaviour ? Is there any possible way to fix it ? The only thing that comes in my mind which could cause something like this is static electricity shock, but if it kills HD2 screen I want my money back.
I guess now I should use warranty and this is just after 1 month of usage....
Just a stupd question
Don't be offended by my question, I just want to rule out the obvious.
You're not wearing gloves due to the cold outside?
Greetings
chuelibrueder
No, I'm not using gloves with HD2 :-(
I have the same problem. I believe that the connectors under the screen became loose.
I have send an email to htc and they told me to contact the retailer to check if they can replace the device and if not to contact the service center in Cyprus.
There is another thread about this issue here
i`m sure that warranty will solve it.. just contact your retailer.. good luck
Hmmm,
Yet another one having to go back due to hardware problems....
WB
I loose the touch screen today and the hardware button exept Home i think, i had to remove the battery and i waited 30s put it back and everything went in place, the phone had called one contact when i had the bug.
The only thing that happened before screen doesn't work and buttons : i received an MMS strange, i'm not sure i can rely on my phone
I only installed the 1.48 rom and the 3 patches (audio, sms and sd card)

I contacted the service center in Cyprus and they offered to repair it but they don't have spare parts right now. I've also send an email to the retailer and wait for their answer.
Seems i have to wait after Christmas for a repair or exchange.
The good thing is that by pressing the screen with my palm or giving it a few solid taps it works for some time.
bBeware keyboard layout!
I had suffer bye used hadwritting layout sometime it cause screen doesn't responds
try change keyboard layout not hadwritting
Just had the same thing happen with mine, powers up but the screen wont respond anywhere i press. I have tried hard reset AND soft reset, nothing!
Have just restored factory ROM, and deleted hspdl and dropped off at vodaphone in town. Im gutted!!
really seems to be a production problem: i had to send my hd2 back to htc for screen replacement just 4 weeks ago... same fault as yours: the touchscreen wasn't responding to input anymore!
the last weeks i noticed that many people had this problem too...
wow.. keeping a close eye on this.. guess the same problem from the HD is creeping up to the HD2..
Well im hoping vodaphone dont turn around and say its not covered under warranty etc, I had to [like most ppl] sign up for two years to get this phone, i aint gonna be to happy if i have to spend the next 21 months of my contract without the handset i wanted!
Yikes , yesterday my screen didn't respond either (for the first time). Soft reset didn't work. After taking the battery out and leave it out for > minute it still didn't respond. I pressed the screen a little and then it worked again. Not sure if it was because of pressing the screen, but it did look that way. I hope this will be the last time this happens!
tnx!

Well, it's been a few weeks now and I've had this problem several times again and worse, even after a hard reset; and almost each time I could fix it by pressing the screen/hardware buttons, but that shouldn't be the way, because I don't think it's good for the hardware, so I searched the forum and I think I found the two culprits (maybe a combination of the two):
1. The problem occured exactly the same day I began using my 16 GB card, class 2. It once happened that when I had the locked screen problem I took out the card and it immediately unlocked. But every now and then the phone still froze, even when I took out the SD card if the problem occured.
2. Then I have put off the automatic light adjustment settings and guess what; no more freezes!
It looks like a combination of power settings and use of SD card. I'm not very technical, but even when it looked like it was a hardware fault at first, it now seems it's a software fault after all.
Touchscreen doesnt work
Well F4CK my screen will not respond to touch at all anymore seems that this is a problem that is not well addressed tmobile is sending out a new one but the question is when will the touchscreen stop working on that "new" one.NOT happy at all.
Well this has now happened to me....no touch response but hardware buttons working, screen still displays-- off to JB HIFI as soon as I can to replace.
OOOKK I had this problem when i just flashed my phone with a costum rom. As far i remember my phone fall down once or twice but not something bad. I have the silicone cover and screen protector. If it was a hardware problem i believe that it shouldn't work at all even if you had to use the hardbuttons. Which that was how i would have to use to unlock the screen. I will go back to the factory rom and settings to see if there is any difference. My current rom is AthineOS 3.14 and Radio 2.15.50.14.
If for any reason you want to access your cellphone and you don't have time go through troubleshooting. I Suggest you download mymobiler which connects the phone and you can use it through your pc. Make sure you take the sd card before you connect. Here is the website www.mymobiler.com
In my case, my phone was RIP. The touch screen stopped working after installing a custom ROM. I installed the latest official ROM from T-Mobile and my phone and came back to life
Has anyone of you guys encountered the same issue with your HTC HD2? Care to share the fix you did? Would this mean bye-bye to my HD2 already?

If a clean install (task 29) doesn't help, then I guess you have no other option than sending it for reparation.
It seems like there is a limited life span on the touchscreen. Mine died in October, and I had to buy a replacement because nothing I did fixed the problem.
I had the same issue as you, but in my example touchscreen is slowly dying. For example I can't wake up the phone pressing right (red) button. So I learned that using any other button will not cause freeze of screen. I also discovered that if you gently slap your phone on hand, magically screen starts responding. Weird, but it's ‘working’ like this since 5 months so far.
I just encountered this problem with my HD2 as well. It seems that this is a fairly common issue. Apparently the digitizer for the touchscreen is located directly beneath the red power button and has a tendency to lose its connection.
For me, holding the red power button down with some force for about 5 seconds fixed the issue. Is this temporary? Perhaps, but it has worked just fine for a few days now. Try that out.
Can't Unlock the Phone..
I am having the same problem..I can't unlock the phone..No matter what android Rom I installed.I tried to removed the lock screen and the touch stopped working..But when the phone restarts and you put you pin etc,I can use the phone normally..but when it goes black and trying to turn it on again nothing works on the screen..
Though the hard buttom works..Home screen etc..but can't get the touch to work after the screen goes black!
It's not rom related
I have installed WM6.5 (Stock), Android GB, Android ICS, Android JB But the problem appears to be the same in all
when I press Red button touch doesn't work any more
I would go with digitizer theory
BUT my question is this:
is it gonna get worse? cause for now as long as i avoid Red button everything is OK :good:
and I love my HD2 but if getting worse is possible I have to get rid of it :crying:
Well i had the same problem.now my phone has been to the service centre for reparing

Funny (or sad) thing is we don't have an official service center here
so only option is to replace it or sell it as the way it is
Try this:
Lock the screen normally, screen turns off. (Power button)
To turn it on again by pressing any other screen buttons other than the power button. (DONT USE THE POWER BUTTON TO DO THIS)
I found that if I do it this way, the screen runs normal.
Hi guys
Something else that may be relevant is....
That it will always boot the LG logo so what ever is going wrong kicks in just after the LG logo
Even when the screen is completely dead i can get the lg logo up by holding the power button.

I've the same issue...
Hello Inked
I've exactly the same freezing on my D802 for more than one month now... And I have no idea what's happening too...
I brought it to a phone shop, he told me it's certainly a motherboard issue, he can repair it for 250€!... Way too expensive for me!
So, I decided to find a motherboard by myself and I don't find... I'm trying at this point to find the same phone with a broken screen to mix components.
It's a D802 32GB and it's quite rare in Europe unfortunatly.
So if someone has an idea how to fix this I'm at your disposal! And I can imagine it's the same for Inked.
I will try to post a video of the freezing problem tomorrow.
Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56259958&postcount=18. Read the guide to fix your phone
Are you sure it's the same issue?
Here is a video I've made of what's happening, the phone is not rooted (never been), flashed with rom stock EUROPE OPEN 20D, and hard reset:

I think touch screen is working because (it's not clear in the video) you can use the phone "normally" but the image stay frozen.
What do you guys think?

I've tried using your link but when i try and click the “1. click here to view picture” link i just get a 404 error.
Having said that, its not that the screen has dead spots, the screen freezes and just looks like a screen shot until you turn the screen off for a few second and then turn it back on.

But as atchoop says the screen is freezing as if you have taken a screenshot and doesn't start working again unless you turn the screen off for a few seconds.
A bit of an update......
I got the same effect as yours during few weeks then it comes back as my video shows because (I think...) I didn't use the phone for a while.
But I still don't know if it's mainboard or screen...
