tonight I just found that for some reason my phone stop ringing.... so I thought I must have turn on vibrate mode for some reason but find out it is not... then after a soft reset the headset icon shows up on the top when there is nothing attached to the phone!!
anyone seen this before?? or know how to fix it?? I tried plug in the headset and remove it but the icon is still there....
yea i was also facing the same problem . then i submitted my handset to S.E and they also dont knw abt the problem so they told me that they will replace the hardware totally and give it to me after 8-10 days

i had this problem when i got the first days my SE, there is somewhere a post in the forum of other ppl that also had the same problem...
in my case the problem went alone after pluging unpluging the heaset and few restarts...
i was wondering cuz the radio worked PERFECT without the headset, shame there is no way to "force" this problem when desired
Has anyone else had this issue? No matter which ROM, RADIO, Phone Settings, ect... I have tried almost everything. Anytime I make a call OR receive a call, the speakerphone icon is toggled automatically. I can turn it off momentarily but the thing just turns right back on again a few seconds later.
btw- I have done hard resets, clean installs (task29), removed sim card and sd card during flashes, hard resets after flashes.
Please help!!! My wife is the only one that doesn't seem to mind my problem because she's been able to hear my conversations all day. LOL
I've never heard this one before. It's possible you have a bad phone.
If I were you, I'd flash back to stock (including the SSPL) and call customer service and get the phone replaced.
You will be able to keep your phone until the new one arrives, which could take a couple of weeks judging by input from others here.
You've paid waaay too much to not have a phone that works perfectly for you
My HD2 was stuck in "Car Kit Mode". An Update for HTC HD2 Car Kit Mode function enhancement has been released to somehow fix this problem (link below)
Seems the problem has already been identified in another thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619859
A quick fix is to plug in a usb cable to a computer, and switch to disk mode or activesync mode. Doing this will reset the speakerphone setting. The reason this happens is the phone is stuck in car kit mode.
I need a little bit of help.
I've just started having a very annoying problem with my HD2. I does not shut down.
Each time I try to shut it down it just restarts.
If I have the battery taken out and I put it back in, the phone turns on automatically.
I tried various ROMs, reinstalled the HSPL, used Task29 various times and the problem it's still there.
And the most annoying is that when the battery reached the critical status (low %), the phones just enters a continuous loop of restarts until the battery is completely dry. Because I cannot turn it off the only solution is to take the battery out until I have the opportunity to charge the device
I don't know if it is a software or hardware problem. I think it should be software but still I do not have any clue on it.
Did anybody had this problem up to now? Any help would be more than welcome.
interesting problem. Most times if a problem persists across hard resets/ rom flashes with task 29, etc, then it is usually a hardware problem.
Have you tried calling your carrier or htc for tech support, maybe a new phone?
Solution?
Hi,
I also had this same problem. I solved it, strangely, by plugging the phone in to charge then unpugging and reseting. Hope this works for you too!

Unfortunately I cannot benefit from the warranty service or free replacement.
The repair costs would not be an issue. The only thing that bothers me is that I don't know if is a hardware or software related.
If I consider the symptoms it should be soft related. But if I consider the thing that nothing of the above mentioned worked, then I have to tag it as hardware issue.
The only thing that could trigger such a behaviour is the fact that this weekend I had it in some high temperature environment ... trying to hold the phone which was charging, in a car without AC, outside temperature 37 Celsius in the shadow, I almost burned my hand ... so maybe some strange protection was triggered.
Another strange behaviour it had, is that i could not charge it on various trials. With the charger connected, in car or at home, it would not charge and the signal led which on normal charge is amber, in these cases was blinking between amber and green.
if the phone gets too hot, it won't charge. That is a safety feature.
Make sure you check your battery contacts as well, where the battery sits in the phone. If the middle one is bent so it doesn't make contact with the phone, it can give you the flashing led.
I thought I read on here that the hd2's were warrantied by htc for 2 years, based off serial number. Wouldn't hurt to call and see.
But it sounds like something fried in the heat.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to see if I can have a service check on it.

This issue has been discussed many times. A lot of people (including myself) has this problem. Try to put it into standby mode and after half a second, the screen comes back again. I have searched the forum many times, seems that no one has come up with a complete solution. Looks like it is not a hardware issue as most people found that if you connect it with your PC in activesync mode, it will resume normal.
My experience :
1. The problem just come up all of a sudden. Haven't install any software or apply any tweaks a couple of days before it happened.
2. Try to look into the active service via memmaid, nothing special.
3. Restore from previous backups when the machine hasn't got any problem. Didn't help.
4. Soft reset a couple of times. No use.
5. Hard reset finally. Problem still there.
6. Start to doubt that it is a hardware problem.
7. Use the plugin method. Normally after activesync, it resumes normal.
8. Also try to plugin micro USB without real connection. It sometimes works.
(I started to think that it might not be a hardware problem. It is obvious that when plugging in, something "stops".)
9. However, either way, it will happen again all of a sudden.
10. Start to take a few irrational moves : install BSB tweaks (haven't install since it sometimes crashes with Cookie's home). Switch to power saving mode with BSB.
11. Stop windows live autosync.
12. Install XDA shutdown. Whenever connected to PC via activesync, will manually put HD2 to sleep mode using XDA shutdown. Then unplug.
It has been four days now, everything resumes normal. The problem just gone all of a sudden. I really don't know what is the reason behind and which steps being taken is a solution. Anyway, that's my experience. Will update again for any changes again.

but if the problem persists across several roms and radios, how can it be software related? The fact that plugging it into the computer or charger sometimes fixes it, leads me to believe that it is the female usb connector that is the problem.

You might be right. I really dun know if it is a hardware or software problem. But, it's kind of interesting that after u plugin it will work for quite some times. And, it will come back after the next soft reset.
OMG!! ... this means that I've just got the HD2 Ebola disease. )
Now being serious, after flashing 3 ROMs, hundred of soft resets, battery in out ... and one long night ...I just give up.
I will just try not to have the phone discharged. I hope there will be a solution sometimes soon.
Possible solution
I had the same problem.
I removed the cover, cleaned the two contacts on the back of the cover and for some unknown reason it returned to normal (although I was holding a pencil in a threatening manner to the red reset button).
What are these nodules for? I think more to do with reception, but it worked perfectly.
Ok, I just received my Unlocked Samsung Focus from AT&T today and everything was fine until I synced with ZUNE.
after sync, phone started to make Message sound 10 loop, repeating the same sound over over and over again, every 0.5-1 second AND DOESN'T stop no matter in which menu you are, even when you're listening to music... But it stops when you plug in the USB cable...
I tried phone reboot, even hard reset, but it's still the same the freakin beeping sound doesn't stop
any suggestions???
It's the same sound when you plug in USB, after you dissconect it it starts to repeat it endlessly HELP!!!!
Sounds like a serious issue, if it persists after a hard reset.
Drop in an AT&T booth and ask them?
the problem is, I live far from USA and there's no AT&T provider here.. ( I live in Georgia, Tbilisi)
the problem is, as it seems, that phone's micro usb port is touching the ground or something like that, cuz when you plug in the cable (no matter if it's plugged in computer/charger, or not) the sound stops. and sometimes it's periodic :\
I searched a little, and it seems I have a same problem as described here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=984909
seems like phone's micro usb port is a problem, i tried to separate the phone and micro-usb port with a little thick paper and it seems to work for now... no sound for now, but I fear that it will return as soon as I'll plug the micro-usb cable :|
So I have a question:
Is there any way to delete/replace/disable USB plug in sound notification?
Hi,
This might be a newbie issue but my HD2 was working well up until few days ago when I noticed that everytime I make a call instead of ringing normally it does it in speaker (hands free) mode what caught my attention since I didn't change any settings.
I'm inclined to think that it might be due to some corruption in the software since I didn't find any optios to revert this so I was thinking on doing a hard reset but...
The other issue I have is that I tried to connect it to two different computers (that it used to connect without problems) and it does not do it.
It does charge on the USB but neither PC's recognize that the phone is connected.
I tried 2 different cables on the 2 PC's without luck.
So again I'm now more convinced that it is a software problem.
Any idea how should I proceed so I don't loose any data????
Thanks,
Look up "stuck in car kit mode" see if it's the same symptoms.
I look into it thanks...
I looked it up,but is not exactly the same.
It's stuck on loud speaker yes but not in landscape mode, if I rotate the phone the screen works ok.
It also goes to sleep so they are not exactly the same
It just does not get recognized by the pc when I plug it on the USB.
I just get the charging light and the little plug simbol on top as you get when you plug to external power but the computers don't make the sound (or any sign of recognition) that normally comes when you plug any USB device to it.
Unless this is just the start of it...
Well, after reading all 12 (or so) pages on that thread and cleaning the heck of the micro usb, wigling the cable in every direction this morning I managed to connect the phone to the PC and get rid of the loud speaker, so even if the symptoms are not exactly the same looks like it heading in that direction.
Bummer...
I guess it's time to start looking for a new phone.
