Boot freeze HTC

Ok, so here's the problem, I've had Artemis v10 installed on my HD2 and it kept freezing up. so I took out the battery, placed it back in and now it wont get past the white HTC screen =[
I can however get in the tri colour bootloader screen.
Can anyone help me on how to get my phone working again...?
Thanks in advance!!!!

I'd say try to take out the battery again if you haven't done that.
Otherwise, a hard reset might be in order.

I often get a partial failure of the soft boot if the battery level is very low. Charging up to 25% or more usually solves it.

Have you tried asking in the Artemis thread?
I dont use this rom but im guessing you either havent flashed a radio or flashed a wrong radio, the thread shuold tell you which radios are compatible with the rom.

Stuck on "Stick Together" screen for no apparent reason

This is odd. I'm running a stock TMOUS ROM, haven't done anything out of the ordinary, and my phone froze up (which happens several times a day) so I unplugged the battery to reset and now I'm stuck at the "Stick together" screen.
All other cases of this that I've seen are from people's unsuccessful attempts at flashing a new ROM, but I'm running the stock T-mobile rom that I've been running for 2 months.
Please help. Id rather leave hard resetting as a later resort, since I dont really want to reinstall my apps and reset all of my tweaks, but if it comes to that so be it.
Oh, and the only thing different that I did was install the new bing maps mobile app that came out this morning. I did that several hours before the freeze...

Update:
I got impatient and hardreset despite my reservations to do so, and it's booting up now.
Well there's clearly no better time to flash a new rom than now... Off to the drawing board.

Take the battery out and make sure the pins are not bent, usually this is what happens when they are, the phone keeps rebooting itself but never fully starts. Gets to a tmo logo and restarts.
Edit: glad it works now, on my old one i had this problem and it was due to that...

mine did that once, took the batt out like twice more....then i just left it for like 15 mmin and it booted up

Can someone tell me if the 3 pins on HD2 for the battery are all aligned up horizontally or is 1 higher thn 2 and 3 is way up there?
Kind of like --- or _ -

I am having the same issue. I have dutty's rom.It had been working fine and then I got the issue where the screen wouldn't light up so I took out the battery and now it won't go past the boot screen with the stick together and doesn't even display the three things at the bottom left hand corner.

I did hard reset and still stuck on stick together, and my pisn don't appear bent.

3-4 weeks. It was working fine and now it just shows the stick together and not the rgd at the bottom riight. I can get to the HSPL boot loader, but I don't think I have installed any programs the last week or so. I guess I could try task 29 etc, but it seems kind of strange i would have the problem all of a sudden.

I need some serious Help!!!!!!

In my attempt to run Android I think I accidentally bricked my phone/
Couple weeks ago I installed HSPL3 in my phone, after this I installed Chucky GTX ROM and also I installed Radio 2.12 then I installed HTC Sense Desire Build but Android wasnt running fine at all.
Ok last week unistall Chucky ROM and installed Energy.Leo.COM2.Barebones WM Build.For.Android, I changed the the radio to 2.15 and I installed MCCM SE V3.4 FroyoStone Sense which it ran great and did not had any problem with it. But about two days ago I would try to unlock the screen but the screen would not respond at all so, I thought it w9s just android so I turned the phone off and boot into windows but the touch screen was unresponsive also. Usually it would come back to normal where the phone would work just fine but today it did it and the phone completely stopped working.
I thought if I change the ROM it would fix it, so I change the ROM and Radio but with no success, in my desperation trying to fix it I googled the problem and I read that if I execute Task 29 that might would fix it, so I did but it only stays on the boot screen (it has ENERGY Boot loader) and it does not show at the bottom Radio, ROM or anything that it usually shows.
The last thing that I did was try to hard reset it but it did not work, I really would like someone to help me with this if there is anything I can do to fix my phone, please, please I would really appreciate it. Thanks before hand

...your phone isn't bricked. Task 29 erases your ROM from your phone. I wish people would stop recommending Task 29 because people who don't read don't understand what it does. Anyways, you need to load another ROM onto your phone now and see if the screen works...more than likely, it won't. This is a known problem with the HD2 running Android from the SD card and we are still not quite sure of the cause or of a fix other than sending the phone back to HTC for repair, which costs around 125USD if your device is not under warranty.

Here is the ittle issue I have I plug my phone to my computer (the phone is off) and when I try to turn it on the phone does not cuts on at all. I took the battery off the phone and turn it on and it actually cuts on, then I plug it to my computer but the light on the phone is not on. Is there anything you could recommend me to do. Thanks again.

What do you mean by "cuts in?" If you tasked 29 your phone you gotta hold down the volume down toggle and at the same time turn you phone on to access your bootloader. Then plug it into the computer and it'll say usb, blah, blah, blash, and flash a rom.

[Q] is my phone fudged?

I think my phone might be fudged. I have been running android fine for the last few weeks until it crashed, I removed the battery to reset but the phone wouldn’t turn back on. However I could boot to the tri-color screen so I tried putting windows 6.5 back on the phone, the installation finished but the phone still wouldn’t boot the OS. I can still get the tri-color screen and have tried re-installing the radio/magdlr but they stick on 0%. Also my battery at best probably has 20-30% of juice left (it won’t charge either).
Anyone know what the cause of the problem is and if there is a way it can be fixed?
thanks in advance!

Try doing a Task29 then flash a compatible Radio then flash MAGLDR.. and lets see what happens

You will need to charge your battery. If it dies during a flash then you will have an even bigger problem to sort out.
If its less than 50% this is probably why its sticking at 0%.
Is your HSPL still intact and which radio are you using?

lower than 50% doesn't really matter from the bootloader, only RUU.
It sounds like hardware problem, or something fishy going on in NAND, I'd do task29 followed by ROM/Radio

thanks for the responses. I still have hspl, I manged to successfully install task 29 after that I tried flashing a windows 6.5 rom, once again phone won't start up after 100% all i can do is get to the 4 colored screen.
is there anything else I can try? considering my battery must be really low and I have no way of charging it.

If you got 100% when you flashed the Windows Mobile ROM and your HD2 rebooted itself, then you sucessfuly flashed the ROM.
Did it boot up to the bootloader or the first splash screen (Stick Together or white HTC screen depending on which HD2 you have)?
If it booted to the first splashscreen it could be the processor having troubles or possible bad blocked incthe NAND memory.
If it boots straight to bootloader then you have a bad NAND memory.

It doesn't reboot to either screen, it simply turns off after the rom is finished installing and doesn't start back up again. The only thing I can do is press volume down and red button to boot the 4 colored screen. When I press the power button all that happens is the phone sometimes makes a tiny vibration.

Yeah sounds like you probably have a internal problem with hardware. But it might could because software related issue, but I highly doubt it. The only software problem you could have that I can think of is a problem with your SPL or HSPL which ever one you have, but you should have HSPL cause you where running Android.

Would a corrupt bootsplash do this?

If you are asking if a currupt splash screen could cause your issue, I would have to say it could be possible, but I do not know enough to say for sure, sorry. You can put this to a test though and flash another splash screen, but the ROM should have flashed a splash screen. Maybe the splash screen it flashed was currupted or had a bad flash. Go to this link to get a splash screen and learn how to flash one.

I've said this a lot in other threads, but create a gold card SD. This will allow you to flash ALL the necessary components from the SD card. Then report back with your experience...

Issues boot issues

My HTC surround died this summer and i have decided to try to fix it. I have tried replacing the SD card, leaving the battery out, reflashing it, factory resetting it and non of this has worked. My phone wont turn on unless you plug it in. It gets to the White HTC screen and then shuts off and restarts. Under the tricolor screen it shows SD UNKNOWN 27, im not sure what that means. Could someone throw me a bone to how to fix this? thanks

try one more other sdcard and after resetting plus the phone as soon a u reset . still if aint workin there probably theres a problem with the sdcard slot

I have tried two other SD cards. I think it could possibly have a battery issue too though. Right before it completely quit working my battery wasnt lasting for more then an hour. Sometimes i had it plugged in and it was dieing faster then it was charging. It also started to get very hot and then it would shut off. I used to be able to power it up to just past the HTC screen without it being plugged in but now i cant make it past the HTC screen with it plugged in. Any thoughts?
Thanks

Also when I check the CRC I get two codes
BL CRC-oxA4CA6CC6
OS(SI) CRC-0x1932A82C
Can anyone shed some light on what this means? Thanks
