help - HD2 General

i restart my pphone but it stayed in the "windowns" screen instead of the home screen no matter how many times i restarted it, so what should i do now !!!!!!

I think it would be helpful if you provided addition information about your phone like what ROM you're using, etc.

um.... i cant even go on to the home screen so cant really tell.....

hard reset

Which windows screen? Titanium? Or the boot screen?
What were you doing when it happened? What happens when you pull the battery out for 10 minutes and put it back in?
We really need more details to help you.

why, why why do i click on topics that say help

My wizard won't boot up....

my wizard won't boot
My wizard isn't going past the WM6 splash screeen, it gets stuck on it. I've tried soft and hard reseting a number of times as well as removing and reinserting the battery but nothing helps...
I recently flashed it with Blackdiamond 2.0 and have been using it without a single problem for the last 2 weeks or so.
Last thing I did on it last night was to use the 'Advanced Settings' in the settings menu and checked the options to make the scroll bars thinner and the scroll buttons smaller, it asked for a soft reset but since I was using it at the moment I clicked no and continued using it eventually powering it off and went to bed.
Now when I turned it on this morning it just won't go beyond the blackdiamond splash screen (pic attached)
I can't flash the rom again since activesync can't establish a connection with it(doesn't recognize that its attached with the pc, probably because the ROM never loads). I really don't know what to do... any help would be greatly appreciated
thanx
Check XDA-Wiki (top of this page) for troubleshooting guide under Wizard section
I'm not sure what is wrong with it, but it started because...I was trying to turn the bluetooth on and it wouldn't let me, so I did a soft reset, and what happens is it will just go to the loading screen for windows and stay there forever! I don't understand what happened . I've tried to reset a couple more times but it won't work...and also the power button on top doesn't work anymore.
Can anyone help me?
problem solved thanks
I just can't understand why people find more comfort in asking a question than doing a simple search and find the answer by himself. It's less time consuming and you feel a bit proud that you solved your problem on your own.
I think we should make a sticky with things like this :
"My wizard won't boot !"
"Which is the best rom ?"
"Will WM6 work on my device ? and where to find it ?"
All questions above have been asked hundreds of times, perhaps more and are still asked by almost every new guy that just registered.
how did you resolve your problem? I don't see troubleshooting anywhere...unless I"m very blind or maybe dumb.

You got 2 choices :
- flash a new rom (put it into bootloader and connect it to the PC then flash)
- hard reset

My Wizard was dead unlimited times.........,
it is easy to get life back, isn't it ?
WTF is wrong with u guys?? If its dead is dead. If the screen works, led works, the pda isnt dead. So hard to understand??

My hero is half dead after reset & reboot!

Hello.
Now I got a serious problem with my Hero.
I made a factory reset, reinstalled my apps from the Market, changed my APN settings and turned the phone off.
I try to turn it on again - But now it stuck at the HTC logo and keep flashing over the letters like normally.
I get past the HERO and the little android dude just fine, but can't go on from the HTC icon.
Ive tried back + on/off to make a reset, but the same thing repeats. Stuck at HTC icon :/
For sure Im going to take contact to both HTC and my operator (Telmore - Denmark) tomorrow :O
Any one got an idea what this can be? I havent rooted or flashed nor touched my phone in any unoffical way.
Thanks
Best Regards,
Philip

Remove the battery for a while and then place it back and start youre phone again. That might solve the problem.
Ive tried to remove the battery lots of times. "for a while" how long do you mean? Ive had it out like 2 mins or. But ill try thx

Maybe half an houre or so. Its just a tip I read about of some that had a bad factory-restore. Some even left the battery out overnight.
Oh that looks like a bit of hope
Thank you. Ill let rest for an hour or so and see if it works then.
Anyone be welcome if you got other ideas - and thank you Heppieboeddah

Really dont know if this will work for you. I do hope so. You also might leave youre sim-card out while starting the first time. You wrote you changed something in the APN settings...
you can also try removing the SD-card. a broken / incorrectly formatted card can also trigger this behaviour.
Ive tried both with and without simcard and sdcard.
I just putted my battery in again.. still no luck :/
Damn its hard to live without the Hero :O
I had the same problem and had to return it to the supplier. Has been away for over 1 week now. I would be very interested to know what the cause/solution is.
I reflashed it with the 2.7.3 update.
Now it works again!

Noticed Something Strange.. Hard Buttons Have Lights?

Okay, I'm not sure what has happened. I picked up my HD2 last week, I had WinMo running until I got home from the store LOL. After trying the different builds I settled on Darkstone FROYO for obvious reasons to me. Ran it ever since, until today, I decided to give a different radio a try due to the fact that large file downloads ie Google Sky Map would fail and I read that a different radio may help. After flashing the radio I went from the Chucky ROM to RC4.7 BLACK TMOUS VR ROM. All went well. Backed up my SD CARD DATA and reformated it to FAT32 32KB, copy my backup back on the SD and loaded dual boot.
Booted right up into Android and right away i see my hard keys are lit up. To be honest I didn't know they even were lighted. LOL.
Anybody else notice this?
They are not working in any build as of now. Are you sure that when you booted into Android from WM, these buttons were not lit up.
If they were, they gonna be lit up all the time (even if you lock the device). If that is the case, would suggest you to reboot it to windows and boot into android only when the buttons are not lit up.
They are on... but yes you are correct. they are on all the time. Even when I lock or when the device goes to sleep.
You booted it from WM with them on, wait til they turn off before booting android
I noticed something else too... I still had the boot screen from the Chucky ROM even after the flash to the VR ROM. So I just reflashed to AxLor DF1 Xlite and that is taken care of. my lights are now off yet again.
wasted thread this has been talked about 1000 times over find another way to get your post up
they shouldnt be lit up lol

i agree... but maybe that how "he's" getting his post count up... lol
anyways, this has happened to me a couple times and i agree with earhog, wait till they are off in WM before u run HARET. this way they'll be off when you boot android and wont drain your battery as quickly...

Damn... I have always searched the forum for answers and advice prior to posting any questions... hence my post count. I did do a search and all I could pull up was posts about them not working. This was more of observation than a question that I thought was strange.
Nothing more.

exactly my point since this android port hit all we get are people posting things that are not helpful ...how is this helping any one , so what u are telling me is we need to help him figure out why his button lights are staying on ..the is a effin emulator ....how about i go post a thread ..."my android market is working"....wtf is that going to do for any one when there a 15 threads saying the same thing find one of thse thread to "CONTRIBUTE" to ...
Every post should be from a Developer or Chef?? The point of the post was... hey this is what is happening, has it happened to anyone else? How did you fix it? Ideas?
The EXACT point of this forum. If you you knew the answer and it was nothing that intrigued you... why did you open the post? Lol. Anyway, it has been answered, issue solved.

I am using my first post just for you. You sir, are an ass and need to go elswhere with your "higher-than-mighty" attitude. Since none of the roms are finalized, this is an acceptable topic for this section. OP even stated later on, all he found was posts for the buttons NOT working. And it is apparent that he was asking if anyone else has ran into this issue. For all we know, there may be an issue the the ROM he has loaded that is causing the buttons to stay on like that.
So heed your own advise and stop padding YOUR post count.
noticed something like that too. the button lights are on SOMETIMES. I can say for sure, I didnt start haret with the lights on, but at some point the lights went on during running android (and stayed on). I think an incoming call triggered it, but I'm not sure.

MAGLDR - battery question

I've noticed that when I'll turn off phone and then put USB in, red LED is lighted for few seconds, suddenly phone starts, battery stops loading and MAGLDR is executed. It seems MAGLDR substitutes code for battery loading. Does it mean, that if I'll make battery totally empty I won't have a chance to load it without OS (which handles battery loading process)?
i thought they fixed it in magdlr .13? so you can drain your battery to 0% without problems...
AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
RTFM

Read the bit that says "New in 1.13"..... It's pretty simple.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10197474&postcount=1
On a side note, no, you can't kill the battery. Once power is connected, your phone uses that, it's just the light goes off while MAGLDR is booting.
Same here, when I turn off the phone and charge it, it turn on automatically. Help please!

It's suppose to do that... that's a new feature in version 1.13 so that there isn't the problem where you have to remove battery to get phone to boot like what happened with earlier magldrs. People complained about that, so cotulla fixed it the only way possible... so it will turn on automatically, and now people are complaining about that. He said in next version it will have setting to allow the uncontrolled charging while phone is off, but you might have to remove battery to get it to boot again. Also not sure if uncontrolled charging is bad for battery or not.
You have to understand... you're hacking your phone to run OS's that weren't meant for it... things are not going to act the same as a native phone. You should feel lucky you can do these things at all.
I have 2300mAh extended battery and with almost every android rom it is useless. When android boots up to the stage when you must enter sim pin than hd2 reboots and it is going into loop. I have discovered when I isolate middle pin on the battery everything is working fine, battery is charging and it can be used without problems.
Doesn't any body READ anymore???

What??? People post explanations to be read???
I thought we were just losing our time trying to help. It seems many prefer to read the title, go to the last page and ask a question for which the answer is on the first post
For their defense, the search functionnality is too complexe. Isn't it possible to just clic on a button and receive answer to all our question directly in our mailbox. Or maybe a button we can clic and directly solve our issues.
I found one... it's the "add to basket" button for an Android phone on an online shop. Works great
this thread helps me a lot! thanks for good article!

Complex? are you having a laugh?
You type in your keywords and click tyeh search button, whats hard about that?
You also get a "similar" threads list whyen creating a topic prior to posting and 9/10 you can find your answer this way also.

Of course I was having a laugh
In French we call "ironie" (not sure at all about the translation).
I write stupid things to make the owner of the thread realize that the question has not to be asked.
For this question, you don't even have to use the search function (which is not complicate, I agree).
The answer is on the first page of MAGLDR thread!!! (know issue, not corrected in x.13 but a paliative solution has been applied... the phone start to prevent having to remove the battery).
Honnestly it's sad to see that you keep posting the same answers and it seems some people never take time to read. They just ask directly their questions.
Maybe I'm sometime difficult to understand as English is not my language.
So our answers don't help... the question neither. It just make a lot of useless thread with the same question again and again.
I can also add that when you post a thread, the forum give you the thread which could give you the answer!!!

HD2 Touch screen problem

Hello,
mine HTC HD2 T-mobile US version have problem. The touch screen stop working and from time to time start to working. I`m with Android, reboot lots of times the phone, leave him without battery for 20 hours but the problem is still there. I reinstall android, format SD card and the problem is gone for 12 hours... now the touch screen again not working. The buttons and the android works fine i can accept the incoming calls but cand do nothing with the screen.
Could u please help me what to made.
If you had done a *search* on google, or in the hd2 general section, you would find that the issue can only be solved by replacing the digitizer, either yourself, or paying a professional to do that.
That's right, replacing digitizer( or whole combo) is the only reliable solution!:good:
