Screwed up my htc hd2 - HD2 General

Well, I was trying to get a costum rom on my htc hd2, so I installed HSPL, after that, I couldn't listen to music with the headset in, the mobile just crash, gets really slow to react, kind of dosnt react at all, and when I call people it just makes a wired buzzing noise, instad of makeing the normal calling tone, and it often, just freezes,
Its a HTC HD 2,
Bought in Denmark, from Telia, (If that helps anyone)
it has that thingy, 1.42.0000 thing, and I sucessfully installed hspl.
I dropped it same day, onto the ground, and it was quite hard, but it wasn't untill after I installed HSPL it ****ed up,
Thx in advance, sorry for my english, normally dont speak it, hope you can get some sense out of it

try flashing another rom. And is the HSPL version the correct one for your phone?
Since it's installed succesfully I'm guessing yes, but you may also look into that.
Kind regards.

Try running a task 29 format and then reflash a new rom.

Thx alot, i' thought about the new rom, i'll try that tomorrow, uhm, I was wondering if someone was able to walk me through it via msn or something, beacuse I've got quite good computer experience, but, my mobile experience sucks, anywho, if you could help me, then dani-4621(at)hotmail(dot)com (at) = @ and (dot) is obiviously "."
thx, just tell me when your online tomorrow, and I will try to live up to that.

Latest Official HTC ROM trashed my device!!!

Hello
Just installed the latest official HTC ROM - RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship - from the HTC website on my device. Upgrade went smooth as so many upgrades (with other phones) before. When it boots 'smart mobility' is shown in it's normal colour for around two seconds during which the font gets some sort of dropshadow effect (much like looking through unclean glasses) and then turns cyan. WM start screen is displayed as I describe as watercolour. Switching off screen and back on gets the normal graphic to live but still with a reoccuring 'smear effect' much like at the start. Device is very sluggish and freezes. Wifi and BT are on by default, no Phone and data reception. When connected to PC it shows ActiveSunc connected icon but 'PC says no' - Little Britain Syndrme. What do you think I should do? I can't revert back to the original ROM as I can't find it anywhere.. can't reinstall the current one as of version message.. in fact can't install any other ROM as I can't get ActiveSync going. Argh! Help! As highly as I think of HTC, this is really screwed up!!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts

I'm not an expert , but def sounds like a wrong hardspl to me. I've had this happen to me twice because of my inexperience the first time and my carelessness the second. Can you redo the hspl somehow and try another maybe xda cooked rom? Or have you already tried to go back to the rom you flashed from? Thats what saved me before. Go to duttys site. He has a bunch of htc roms for D/L. Maybe you can find your old one there.

Thanks for for your thought cbreze. I'm annoyed as everything went by the book and the upgrade went fine until reboot. All I can do is to hard reset the phone at the moment. Can't get an ActiveSync connection going. Any way I can still flash to another ROM without it? Been to dutty's before and there's the same official version that causes me the problem and the Orange UK ROM.. not quite what I had in mind on o2. Can't find the 1.14 ROM which shiped with the device. Any idea where I can get hold of it? Also, I think I have seen a utility somewhere that helps to recover from a bad flash and in the absence of ActiveSync connection. Or was this just a pleasant dream?
Just have seen cRaCKwHoRe post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377 which exactly describes my issue. Will follow that trough but please let me know if you have any additional thoughts. I'm really p***** off with HTC. They could post cRaCKwHoRe's info this on their site. First time I ever got an official ROM and the last as I'm a burnt child. Usually get them from here and it's always first class stuff. Thank you people.
cRaCKwHoRe's instructions did the trick. Panic over. Thank you to everyone whom had a look at the issue and great thanks and deep bow to life saving cRaCKwHoRe. Donation is on the way as soon as I get paid.

Noob:HD2 issues....need advice. (T-Mo U.S.)

Hello XDA,
I first off want to say that this site is amazing. Alot of good people on here making some great stuff and i just want to say thank you. Now, my issue...
I purchased the HD2 (T-Mo U.S.) the day it was released and ever since i have gotten the phone i have experienced nothing but issues. The first thing i noted about the phone was that the speaker was WAY too loud. Even when i turned it down it just seemed to be still be loud enough that people in the same room could hear my convo. After a while the speaker started to crackle and now the call quality sounds like ****..it's not all the time but most of the time. Another issue i started to have was that everytime i picked up a call the ear speaker would go mute. I would have to either put the convo on speaker OR hold the phone face down to active speaker, then whip it right back to my ear and it would sometimes unmute itself. You can only imagine my frustration when i called the tmobile store and they tell me i can get a replacement as long as i "wait for a new shipment"
So now to my software issues. As far as modding concerns i have not really changed much on the phone. I' ve installed HD tweeks + some games and my contacts. Now every time i exit a game...the OS either freezes...or it just starts buggin out on me. The bottom bar (phone / menu) will freeze or the whole OS will become super laggy and unresponsive. It has even happened just by using the SMS application at times. Also i find that i could be doing the simplest thing on the phone and for no reason...it wil decide to freeze on me. Sometime half the screen, sometimes the whole thing. I have to remove the battery to reset it when that happens.
Now i know about closing opened programs through the task manager and also about clearing sms's regularly and soon and so forth. If there is anything else you guys think i should consider doing i am ready to hear it. I came from a 1st Gen iPhone that i had since 2007, which i jailbroken for tmobile (the OLD way...lol) and in the 2 years i had that phone the HD2 has given me more problems in its 2 weeks.
Do you guys think i got a really defective phone?...or is WinMo really just that ****ty? I dont want to get another phone but as it is,..im really thinking about just giving up on it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and once again thanks!
I think you have a defective phone. My HD2 (from T-Mobile) doesn't have issues at all with the phone going mute. It could also be the HD tweeks, i would do a hard reset and see if you are still having this issue.
i would suggest try flashing a custom rom with new radio and c if that works i had the call sound problem flashed rom n radio now its crystal clear and runs brilliant

Oh really?...Can you give me more info on this and your previous issue?
my phone would occasional mute or hold the call without me relising and the call quality was terrible my friend in usa has t mob one and he had similar issue he read the stickies in the rom development forum and flashed a custom rom and radio and he thinks it solved his problem it solved mine if its new i would be tempted to take a new handset and see
hope that helps

i wouldnt flash a rom. its a brand new phone do the factory reset first and if that doresnt work exvhange it. If you flash the rom you will void your warranty most likely. IMHO you're already on 2.10 rom which is pretty new and should have all the latest hotfixes

You won't void your warranty flashing anymore... the hspl can easily be taken off now with the same app that puts it on. You can try flashing a rom... it might fix it. Otherwise, flash back to stock rom, take hspl off, and then exchange it. I'm still on stock atm, and haven't had any problems people are complaining of. My only issue is T-mobiles crappy 3g coverage that doesn't even work inside my house. I have 1 more day to decide if I want to return it and go back to at&t... Save up and get myself an australian HD2.
Returning the phone today. Even with the issue of broken ear piece, i just cant take this anymore. Beautiful phone, great UI (sense) but the glitchy-ness of WinMo is just too unbearable. guess ill be getting a Nexus.
it is really up to you if you wanna return it back and get a N1. i bought this phone cause of this specs. and for me it do very nice. you can even buy a iphone also which also very easy to use and less bugs ofcourse nothing is perfect as in "Perfect"
not everybody wants to take risk and flash roms and other stuffs so i guess its your best decision. good luck... but if you need any help about HD2 please feel free to come by this threads...
yea i bought the HD2 hopefully i dont get those problem or else NEXUS one for me too.

Phone freezes..need help asap

Phone rings, I pick up the call, the screen shows connected and starts the call timer but you cant hear anyone the other end. hang up the call and the phone freezes with only a soft reset (taking battery out) works. I have a T-Mobile contract handset and was running the 1.43 rom. I thought maybe flashing to another rom might help so tried the 1.48 update but still having problems. I have hard reset and installed no software but still have the problem. Any ideas guys....
Obvious answer: Don't answer calls!
On the serious side, if you are seeing the same issue regardless of software and after a hard reset it is most likely your hardware. Get in the que to get it replaced as soon as possible. I hope it doesn't sour your opinion of the phone too much, it really is a great phone.

1.43 ROM? That is a 512LEO type ROM, you might want to step up to at least a 2.10 ROM if you have a 1024 Tmo HD2
If you want the stock ROM without the "trial" then go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655653
Then download and install the 2.10 ROM (This will clear the "trial" screen)
Then install the 2.10.1; and it will put everything back to stock except for the HSPL (if you run from PC)
What do you mean by "if you run from pc"

[Q] "Mobile of the year '09" bull****

I just got my HD2 back from repairs after 1 month now, I had the problem where the phone freezes up when I recieve calls. This got fixed, and I have not noticed any of the symtoms I had earlier. But now...
1. The FM-Radio does not work.
2. When I connect my phone to my computer, my computer sais: "One of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it. for assistance in solving this problem, click this message." And just connect - disconnect - connect - disconnect.
3. When I turn on my cellphone, I get a warning: BTTrayCE er ikke et gyldig Pocket Pc-program. (BTTrayCE is not a valid Pocket PC-program in English)
It just kills me that the phone that actually won the "Mobile of the year '09" by Amobil.no, sucks more than the Iphone.
Should I just send my phone back to repairs again, or do you guys have any idea how to fix this without using another month in repairs?
OS: 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
ROM: 1.66.409.1 (76641) NOR
Manila: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM-date: 01/12/2010
Radio: 2.07.51.22_2
First off, I'm sorry to see that your phone is having these issues. Mine has worked like a charm ever since I installed the first custom ROM.
Now my question; have you HSPL'ed your phone yet?
You could try installing another (custom) ROM and a newer radio version to see if it helps.. It might aswell fix your problems.

I did use HSPL before I sent my phone to repairs, but it did not fix any problems, therefore I do not believe in HSPL'ing anymore.. I did not notice any difference at all, after installing a custom rom, or radio..
I see.. Have you tried Task29 yet? (Formatting it completely)
And then installing the latest Radio + a custom rom? (Before trying this, be SURE you have HSPL'ed it!)
If you've already tried that, I think the only thing you'd be able to do is to get a huge stone (or your HD2 itself), put a note on it saying 'It still does not work properly', and throwing it through the window of any HTC office in your country .
Or just open a ticket/calling them saying it still doesn't work and that you demand a replacement/new phone, as how it is now it's kinda an expensive brick.

Do HTC even bother about their customers? Doesn't seem so, seeing that if the cellphone should have any problems of this sort, they say you will get a new phone. But rather getting a new phone, I got the old one back, in worse condition than before.
Also, I wonder if they can check my problems? Because we have a law in Norway, if the same problem occours after 3 times repaired, you can either get a new phone or money back (same with all other electronics). So could I just lie and say I have the same problem + the new problems? **** the ethics ..

Task29 isn't that risky.. Just run HSPL again and get that done, then run the packed exe as found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644781. As long as you press the VolDown button when it restarts, you will be totally fine. However in your case, I'd indeed not expect much improvement, as it really seems to be a hardware problem.

I think it is all the same with those big corporations. One customer, who cares? As long as their phones sell, why would they bother? Same story all over again.
I'd go for the three strikes = new phone way. However, it does suck to have your phone taken away from you for another month or so..
sorry mate..mine works like a charm since day one must be just u it still is the best phone
lmao it has some disadvantages (like tft screen,no tv out/hdmi out/crap loudspeaker) but lmao its still better than most phones out there

Guess what, it is the lastest stock, I just checked it.. Norwegian atleast, and I don't bother using other languages (even English). Just posted a ticket on HTC.com/no, and then I will send it to repairs again, and again, and then I'm changing to a Samsung Galaxy S..
I've heard Samsung support is even worse than HTC..
But indeed, the Galaxy S does have features that our phone lacks.. Still, I think the HD2 looks more sexy.

The HD2 looks way better, I do agree. But my brother bought himself a samsung galaxy s, and he's going to start making games and apps, so he could teach me a little bit, and if I have problems, I could go to him rather than sending it to repairs, (not all problems are easily solved on the intarwebz) and then I'd get rid of Windows Mobile..
Sorry to hear that you have such hard issues with your HD2.

I had the same issue too. TomTom replaces two BT files (Your bluetooth should not work by now) so the BT application can not start up properly. THIS fixes at least this problem (Use Resco Explorer or TotalCommander and unhide system files).
I hope you'll find help for your other issues, too.

Well, instead of buying a licence, you hack it, using a keygen of some sort :S Didn't quite get what I did, but I used CMD to open a keygen and create a file :S Was weird, but hey, I did it... After 2 hours of trying
Easy when you know how, but im sure its not something that should be discussed on the forums. (WTB TomTom for sale from the australian site, as i feel its worth the cash)
anyway, darkkoushirou is correct regarding TomTom + Bluetooth.
I found it easier to install it to the SD card then factory reset. Once thats done i used total commander to simply copy a link back into your start menu.
Now that my custom ROM has XDA_UC i have set it to auto-copy the link back to my start menu after each rom upgrade
I know that when i got the handset i was trying many different apps, some of which caused issues. Once you get an idea of the ones you need, doing a factory reset is recommended. Then only install the 'good' ones.

it's a pretty common solution, seems to fix something in the way the radio communicates with the phone drivers.
It will work where you turn on loudspeaker on then off or go in to settings and turn off touch audible tones.
