Help, my device is broken?

My Touch HD doesnt respond, it hangs and restarts itself all the time. Today it chrashed totally and I cant start it no more. It comes to the text "smart mobility" then the softwareinfo in the right lower corner pops up and nothing more happens..
I cant do a hardreset. (tried with volumebuttons and powerbutton at the same time)
I cant upgrade the software..
Anyone had this issue before?
Servicecentre?
Sad times...

Cokey,
Can you even put it into the bootloader mode?
Cheers.

Ehrm, whats bootloader mode?

hold vol down, and press power on (keep holding volume down until screen comes on)
you should see a screen of 3 coloured bars
if you can do this, you should be also able to do hard reset. for a hard reset make sure you hold both the volume buttons down, and keep them held after you press power on
Tom

Okey, havent tried that yet. But hardreset wont work, with both volumekeys and power on...

I've just tried that bootloader mode and that works but a hardreset isnt working. It starts up as written above then the display fades out a bit. Nothing more happens...
Darn it...

Cokey,
All is not lost, don't worry. If you can get into Bootloader mode, then you will be able to flash a new ROM onto it. Go to the ROM section and follow crackwhore's very detailed guide.
Have fun flashing!
Cheers.

Thx for the help...
After maybee 20 hardresets starts it finally started...
All seems ok with it right now... Will leave it on over the night so Im sure it wont hang/restart again..
Again thx for the help..
(Flashing is something I wanna try but I really want my OS to be in Swedish )

I have the same issues. I am constantly reflashing the ROM because the phone will not last more than a day before being stuck on the Smart Mobility screen.
I have been flashing all of Dutty's different ROMs including LEO R4 and WM 6.5 R14 Turbo, WM 6.1 etc every day for the past week. It still freezes daily and when reboot, it gets stuck on Smart Mobility Screen. I am ready to throw it in the bin!
Anyone got any ideas. Flashing ROMs isn't working or fixing it as I have tried all sorts. I have also upgraded the Radio yesterday, still doesn't help. Tried also a new SD card, again, still freezes.

Have you tried reverting back to stock rom to see if problem persists? If so, return device under warranty

J,
USPL or HSPL? Do you install any applications, or do you leave it as it is and it still crashes in a day?
Cheers.

No luck
I think my warranty is out the window when I tampered with the screws and broke the VOID Warranty sticker.
I have used both USPL and HSPL and same issues occurs. I think I have narrowed it down... if I don't touch the onboard memory, ie not install anything to the onboard memory or touch it too much in that area, then it will tend to be okay. It starts to freeze and lock up at Smart Mobility Screen whenever I copy stuff or active sync etc.... so far anyway.
Looks like its going in the bin... last resort tomorrow, revert back to stock rom and see how long it lasts.

Uh oh, HD2 might be bricked/broken?

Hi all,
Hoping someone can help!
OK, first of all I'll admit quite openly that my knowledge of flashing and so on isn't what you'd call strong so any accusations of being a n00b are warranted and accepted.
I got my HD2 in Jan and I'd flashed a few handsets before without issue so flashed the HD2 pretty much straight away and played with some ROM's and so on and settled on one (from memory Dutty ROM) and everything was fine, the phone was stable and everything was good.
Then 2 weeks the handset started acting oddly. I hadn't changed anything (as far as I'm aware) but the phone starting freezing, restarting and so on. I'd have to take the battery out to restart it (and sometimes leaving the battery out for a while before it'd boot up.) When it froze the area around the bottom of the battery would also warm up. I'd also notice that if I tried doing something on the handset it would restart - almost as if I was putting to much "strain" on the handset and it went *bang*.
I decided to hard reset the phone and it went back to original form. Now, I'll again admit this is probably down to my lack of knowledge, I assumed this put the handset back to a factory state but this is probably not the case (it certainly looked like it but some signs suggested it hadn't).
This seemed to improve things a little but the problems just came back. As I'd flashed it and put on the HSPL I thought the warranty was now invalid so thought I'd try and "fix" it myself.
Big mistake.
Or was it?
I think the phone has an issue with power or something like that as it freezes as I've said. And it did this while I was trying to flash a ROM. Panic then set in.
Basically my handset is now in a state where it'll boot into the bootloader (power and Vol down) three colour splash screen and it'll do the white HTC "normal" boot up screen but nothing else.
I can connect to the handset via RUU and I can run:
Task 29
however this doesn't run and finish gracefully most of the time. It'll stick on 99% or 100% or sometimes it'll moan about not being able to do this on this handset.
Any ROM I now try to flash on it using the exe's or RUU (I've not tried them all, granted!) starts and stick at a certain percentage. The Artemis ROM sticks at 12%, Official 1.43 WWE ROM sticks at 0% and Leon ROM sticks at 9%. Eventually they'll time out with an error. Unfortunately I left the handset at work so cannot state which error(s) I get when trying to flash a ROM.
So, after boring the hell out of you, is the handset terminally ill in your opinion? I really do think that there could be a faulty power button/general power issue with the handset (just a feeling I've got) but from my brief reading I'm not 100% sure.
Is there anything I could do? At the moment it's completely unusable so any suggestions on getting it into a working state? Ideally I'd like to get it into a state where I could return it to O2 UK and not have them flag the fact it's been flashed.
Any help gratefully received!

can you get into bootloader? if so, check the spl.
if it is 1.42.0000 or 1.66.0000 then the warranty is fine.
if the spl ends .hspl then connect to usb and run hspl 2.
choose whatever was your stock spl (one that ends 0000, 1.42.0000 most likely)
reboot to boot loader, and confirm the spl ends 0000 and you will be fine.

have same problem!
my hd2 freezed on startup screan, boot screan, sometime donot start - only black screan, after rom flash 99percent or 100percet once freezed when i return stock rom and spl,sometime dont want to boot with 1.42hspl, next time with 1.66, but my experinece is :

Samsamuel, you're an utter *star*.
Now back to 1.42.0000. I can blag O2 now if needs be in regards to the handset (tried upgrading to 1.72, USB cable came out, phones shagged, give me a new one, etc) without them getting funny about it if needs be.
Will try upgrading to 1.72 stock O2 ROM and see what happens.
Thanks again Samsamuel, I owe you a pint!

I have the exact same problem.
The screen freezes for a while, and then the device reboots.
Usually it's stuck on the white (with green "HTC") screen after that, the red text doesn't show up.
If I remove the battery and leave the device alone for a while (cool down?) it boots past the white screen (although it's highly likely that it crashes again when I enter my pin).
At first this was only happening when I was watching some video's with coreplayer, but now it's just happening all the time, even when it's in my pocket.
I just finished flashing a stock rom, but it's even worse now
9 out of 10 times it doesn't even make it to the pin screen, and I have spend about 2 minutes total actually in windows mobile.

Brood, it sounds like your issue is hardware related, I would contact htc too look into getting it repaired.

Just an update from OP.
Thanks for the link ilijan, very interesting.
I spoke to O2 business tech support yesterday and deliberately asked whether anyone else was complaining of this issue. They said no but I'm unsure whether I believe them and whether this was just the corporate line.
After setting my SPL back to 1.42.0000 I tried flashing to 1.72 stock and this did work. Every other ROM I tried wouldn't work. Even with the official ROM it's still freezing/restarting.
Getting a refurb today.
Thanks to all that responded/helped. Appreciated.

[q] please helpp hd2 android failure! I just want windows back!

So I tried a crack at android on my HD2 for the second time cuz the first one crashed on me, but I noticed that this version of android didn't come with any sort of data connection at all. I tried to get it back to windows but my phone is stuck on android. I've done soft resets, hard resets, i formatted my sd card, but it still automatically boots back to aqndroid. are there any sort of stock builds for winmo 6.5 for the HD2 out there?

Get into the tri color screen by powering up the phone and holding vol down. Plug phone into computer. Flash the rom.
You can download the rom at HTC or search HD2 stock roms here and you'll find a list. Make sure you pick the right rom. e.g if you have t-mo HD2, pick a rom that is compatible with t-mo.
If you don't pick the right rom and you flash that rom, expect your device might be bricked, so be careful.
N.B. It might, wait, not might, it is, a good idea to read up the guides (all the guides) thoroughly before you start customizing. Otherwise you'll just be asking these redundant questions.

Hw did u get android on ur device? and which build did u try? we need more info if u really want android on ur device...Its pretty easy and it takes less than 10 mins 4 me (or any1) to switch builds @ will..
Anyway to get WinMo back...
1. Hope u've performed a HARDSPL...
2. Just perform a Task29 ( dis wipes your phone clean leaving ur radio & HSPL intact).
3. Visit the WinMo dev section, download a custom or stock WinMo ROM..
4. Follow the Dev's instructions (basically connect usb, enter bootloader, click, click etc).
5. Flash away.
6. Soft reset and u r done!!.

my htc hd2 is STUCK.. HELP ME PLS

I bought an HTC HD2 FEW WEEKS BACK FROM ONE OF MY FRIEND.
I DO NOT HAVE THE HISTORY OF WHAT HE TRIED TO DO WITH IT.
BUT BECAUSE IT WAS STUCK/DEAD , HE GAVE TO ME FOR CHEAP.
NOW THIS PHONE IS UNDER WARRANTY TILL AUG-2012 AND IS FROM VODAFONE.
(EVEN AFTER INSTALLING ANDROID IT IS VOID)
HE MUST HAVE TRIED SEVERAL ROM/HSPL TO GET TO THIS POINT.
PROBLEM:
When I power up the phone, it displays a NRG LOGO SCREEN (energize software), and it gets stuck on it forever.
When I do hold the volume down + power button, then it comes up with the three colour screen and it says SPL-2.08.0000, AND also says rom update failed (only if i try to install and then start up)
The phone does connect through USB when it is on the three colour screen, but it does not let me install ANY OF THE romS or the spl'S...
I have tried literally every single step possible. I have tried to do task 29, i have tried install the original rom, i have tried to put the rom in the sd card and try it that way.. I have also tried to do hard reset... vol up and down and it does not complete either..
I best rom it let me install was 99% of 2.10.50.19.2.. but after 99% it got stuck .. it seems like it gets stuck within 1 min or so.. anything you do!
Some times after several hundred attempts, it does let me change the spl... as it was displaying 3.... before then i changed to 1.4..... and then to 2.08...
All i want to do is to get rid of the NRG SCREEN, so i could send to the htc ,, for repair ( i know that it is not under warranty if i used andriod, but they will not know) .. or is there any way to completely format the phone,,, is there any solution to install andriod or microsoft? pls help

Before we start, you can ask him how his device has ended up like this, can't you?

Because you have stock SPL, you won't be able to install any custom ROM or any stock ROM not made for your region/SN.

AFAIK, task29 is, also to be considered, a custom rom so it needs HSPL to be flashed. Are you sure you have followed the steps correctly?

That is not a ROM, it's a radio. You need to flash HSPL to be able to change the splash screen (NRG Screen). HSPL should go like this: SPL 2.08.HSPL .

Microsoft is a corporation, Windows Phone is the OS .
One more thing, to be able to flash a LEOIMG from sd, the .nbh must be a rom that is compatible with your device (It will work if you get it from htc.com using the device's serial number)
I hope this helps. And I'm sorry if I am incorrect at something.
Good luck.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To summarize it, you need to do either one of the following:
1- Install HSPL, and do what you want.
2- Go to HTC.com, download a rom using your Serial Number, rename file to .zip, extract the .nbh file, rename to LEOIMG.NBH [Capital letters], put onto sd card and insert into phone, boot up device while holding volume down ONLY, and make sure splash is removed and you're back to the "htc" stock, then send to repair [why?].

posting teh same post in multiple sub forums is considered rude
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1440265

Yeah, HSPL is needed for flashing pretty much everything. One thing you could do would be to flash a stock ROM from your SD card (just google it I CBA to provide links and stuff) which would reset everything to factory WinMo (including SPL to SPL3.03 [assuming you flash the latest ROM 3.14]) and from here it would basically be a fresh start. Probably the safest route without HSPL

Hi.
Thank you for your replies...
Let me tell u guys if I forgot to say earlier. The mobile phone is not letting flash any of the Hspl... be q series, 2 series or 3.series... all the times it says error 0000006 and 000000010 etc... a couple out of hundreds it did let flash but then it doesn't let me flash the factory rom fom HTC.

I have succesfuly flashed the 3.03 hspl... bit still no success in flashing any roms ... it gets stuck sometimes at 99% and sometimes at 0% and sometimes it comes up with a scrambled screen and stuck

OK,
My final.outcome.
This phone let's me flash the hspl but it doesn't let me flush any roms including the original HTC factory rom.
I can also perform the task 29. Etc but still the NRG screen is still there.
I would like to know that if I flash the original Split and send it HTC, will be repairable for free? Sure? Even with the NRG.

now i think the only option available to you is jtagging the device which may permanently void the warranty !!
it had happened with me once, but somehow it got solved !
i used to randomly install clk, magldr, radios, hspl etc multiple times !
it used to get stuck while installing and then i used to remove the battery and try again !!
somehow it started ! !!
STRANGE DEVICE !!

Yeap its a real problem!!
Now , It will not let me change the hspl to spl whatsoever I do.
I would like your suggestions
I bought this brick for £50 and I can return it to get my money back. Has any used jtagging and does it 100% work?. The thing is if I do used jtagging, and if it doesn't work ,then I can,t return it!. How much does it cost and is it worth it?

jtagging will solve your problem !!
they remove the motherboard of the device and flash the os into the motherboard directly through a device named riff box !!
refer this video for more info !!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zElsUERTzOU
but pls do not try this at home ! !!
just contact a local repair shop to jtag your device !!
also u can contact these guys from the video !!
good luck ! !!

Check that the micro USB connection isn't "wobbly".
I had a TMOUS HD2 and never had any issues. Then, I sold it and got a Telstra HD2 and had big issues getting ROMs installed until I realized that the connection at the phone was a little weak. I can't send any updates to WP7 via cab sender unless the phone is in a certain position to keep the connection from breaking.

Don't worry ... you can give the life to your phone back... it shows fail bcus u have 2.08.0000.. so it means u Sud have 2.08 v hspl.. so try flashing hspl by getting into bootloader(3 colour) by pressing volume down + power Then flash hspl.. but remember select 2.08v.. then again after flashing hold volume down + power.. bootlooder.. then flash magdlr 1.13 ... now the phone will boot into a black screen with written mangdlr.. wen the black screen magdlr screen comes then press power off for 5mintzz.. follow the guide to flash.. there is a stick thread in NAND DEVELOP... U can get the windows version back to your phone to get the warranty...

Ok ,, some good new at last ..
I have used the HSPL4 to change my 3.03hspl to 3.030000 spl...
Success, as when i go to the tri colour screen it says spl and no hint of hspl...
Bad news, is that i still cant get the rom flashing,, as it gets stuff at some point and mostly at 99%.. Have tried both ways through SD (leoimg) and through USB.
Now final question is ... When i on the phone a big logo of NRG (ENERGIZE) writtten comes up and it gets stuck there.. the phone has SPL .. so it still under warranty to return it?.. I still have all the void sticker intact.

did you try to flash just a splashscreen as i suggested in your other thread? (they can be flashed alone, no need for a whole rom, , just like radios)
if you can get a stock splashscreen on there you are sorted.

Maybe try to download the original Software from HTC.
With you serial number you can get the latest windows for this phone.
Flash the Software you get from HTC.
If this is working ok you can try to install any Android ROM.
Read at first this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905841
Try to understand and follow the steps..
But if you have even no luck with original Windows soft. You will also (maybe) have a lot of probs. with Android..

Thank you guys for all your help..
I have flashed andriod on several phones some time ago and I actually forgot the right steps to follow.
But this phone is unique is not letting me finish.
After following all the right steps, i wasnt able to install a rom succesfully even after installing the HSPL... and I am also not able to install the factory rom from htc on either the hspl or spl settings.
But i now got rid of the NRG screen and I have also installed the spl 3.03.. When you on the phone, it displays software upgrade failed..
So I have now sent the mobile to HTC as it is under warranty. I will then re-flash andriod following the right steps and see what happens!
Thanks again!

My mobile came back from HTC with a week.. Looks like a brand new one!
In the letter it says the replaced IMEI, PCBA, FL BD, W/O_ REGIONAL_ID, LEO
WOW
GREAT PHONE... ITS MUCH FASTER THAN THE PREVIOUS ONE FOR SOME REASONS

HTC HD2 Hangs on SPL-Screen

Hello,
I recently found back my hold HTC HD2 and when I tried to start it up..It just hangs on the HSPL/SPL coloured screen. When I first powered it up HSPL by Cotulla was on it and it always ran Android.
So I download the Stock Windows Phone ROM from the Internet and installed it, but it still hangs on the HSPL Screen. So I installed the Stock SPL but I didn't help..
Can someone please help me? I really want to use the phone again but it seems there is a problem. There still is a SD-Card in it which has 4GB...Can someone please explain me how to get the phone back to Stock windows phone?

Can someone please help me?

Try removing sd card.
If still same issue leave sd card out & reflash ROM from links below.

I had the same problem bro, do you want android or windows on the phone?

I want the original Windows Phone back on it.

Mister B:
I followed your steps but it didn't fix the problem. When I start up the phone, the three coloured display shows up and it says 'Serial' on the bottom. Tried the reset button several times and even holding down both Volume-buttons to Hard Reset the phone, but it didn't fix the problem.
The phone always worked fine, what is the problem?

Have you tried doing Task29(full wipe) via HD2 toolkit?

Yes, I already tried Task29 before flashing Hard SPL and Original ROM. I really want to get the Phone working again so my Mom can use it!
Hopefuly someone can help my out with this annoying and weird problem.

After installing the stock rom, what did the phone do? Did it restart to the HSPL screen?

Yes, it restarted back to the HSPL screen. It also shows 'Serial' on the bottom and when I connect USB cable It shows 'USB' on the bottom.

Try flashing stock rom from sd card rather than via usb & see what results you get.

I tried flashing the Stock ROM from the SD-card but it didn't help. It still is stuck at the SPL-screen showing 'Serial' on the bottom when I start up the phone.
Which exact ROM do I need to use for a Netherlands(Europa) HTC HD2 (NON-TMOUS!)?
I hope to hear back from you as soon as possible!

Can someone help me please? Tried everything!
