I recently dropped my 8525 hard enough to throw battery out of phone. I reinserted battery and started phone. Though I lucked out as everything seemed to work until I couldn't make a call. During boot I get "no GSM" instead of a battery version. I have done a hard reset, but it didn't help. I going to try to install a new ROM and if needed try to flash a new radio.
Anybody else have this problem? I am afraid it is a hardware malfunction in the radio.
If I cannot get this to work (I have already bought a new phone) I will be more then willing to donate (just pay for shipping) the phone to anyone who would like to work on it or test things on it. I have one half good battery and one good battery as well. Like I said everything seems to work but the actual phone. Let me know if you want it.
meh, that is not good news my friend, hope you get it fixed!
if it is a no go however, i wouldn't mind taking it off your hands
best of luck,
tbae2
Try to reflash original or stock rom. Go with the carrier rom you are supposed to have. It might work as there have been reports to indicate this.
Hope it works for you.
Cheers...
I have recently gone through similar problems, there are numerous things that can cause the NO GSM error on post. So here is the complete solution:
1. Some hard drops can jostle the antenna connection on the board, (a dodgy way of testing if this is the issue is to give the phone a shake and a few soft resets, the NO GSM error will sometimes disappear and state your radio version). There are numerous service manuals that describe how to disassemble and reassemble your handset (read the forums). It sounds scary at first, but so does not having a working phone (be sure you are out of warranty first). You will want to get some electronic circuit board cleaner and give the area around the golden clip on the top left (back facing up) a good spray (while you are at it, why not clean out some dust scroll button detritus). Then dry and reassemble, taking care to force the antenna all the way into the clip.
2. If step one really scares you or you are still in warranty, skip straight to here. A program called mtty (i use vers 1.42 , check the forums) can be used to interrogate the board logic from the bootloader, there are numerous tasks that can be used to clear registers and check gates for errors (for lack of a better word), the wiki has a great entry on all these.
3. A reflash of the radio and maybe even the os isn't a bad idea either... although remember that the latest radio may not be the best for your area/network (READ THE FORUM on this too)
Let us know how you go with it all, and good luck
if you need any further assistance PM me.

This was my idea last night as well. Froze on bootloader. I tried to also Install new radio but also a no-go. I am now downloading a new ROM without radio to see if I can get something other then bootloader. I will keep posted.
I can take the phone apart if I need to, I will make it a last resort. I am not afraid to though as I already have a new phone.
Seeing as I still cannot figure out how to make a ROM to contribute (vista and lack of programing skills) This would be a way I can assist If it would be more useful to someone here not dismantled I would like to look into it.
Update:
The radio hardware must be bad. I cannot flash a new radio or any rom with a radio. Schap's EM6 is working fine. I am going to look into discodergenson 's suggestion of taking the phone apart.
Schematic Diagram
Hi, I have a HTC 8525, with the same problem, doesnt start phone module.. anyway, in my phone, the sim card is not detected. Anybody have schematic diagram for this model? Or any other htc model, for reference.
I think this problem can be caused by dry solder in the driver of sim card, must identify it.
Thanks in advanced
(Sorry for my bad english)

I don't think a bad SIM card connection is a problem. Without a SIM card the phone still needs a radio connection to make 911 calls.
also obviously I only have a t8 and higher, not a t6 which is needed to take phone apart. I will update when I get phone apart.
Hello,
Can I successfully flash a new ROM if I have a broken display??
I am currently controlling my phone via MyMobiler. I have ordered a new LCD but until it arrives (aprox 15 days) I would like to flash a new ROM, also CID unlock the phone.
Is there a way that I can do all of this blindsided ??

Not being an expert, but you wouldn't be able to resinatll mymobiler to control it again afterwards, and then it would be useless until you got the new LCD? Most steps of it, I think you'd be able to do, when flashing I haven't ever had to use the touch screen/see the screen. But I think you would have issues being able to use it afterwards anyways as you would have a nice bit of guess work to get the right location when you're prompted to install mymobiler on the elf. Also, you would have to get to this point by using remote align?
But then again, someone with more knowledge may be able to offer better advice, I hope my views help.
hoping to get some ideas!!
MyMobiler was installed when the display was broken. I am not sure if it prompts a message when you install it? (after running the installer on the PC I pushed the left soft-key just in case, and it worked)
My only concern is what are the steps/messages on the first boot after flashing??! it has been 2 year since I've flashed a WM and I don't remember all the stages.

Did one on my lunch, from memory it seems to be calibrate (cries if one is slightly out...), date time settings, and a few annoying this is how winmo works with menus etc. then you get to the actual screen.
I have a second ELF coming tomorrow - If I can get it fixed I can see if I cna figure it out if you'd like? May take some time as I only get 30mins a day to mess around with them though. Maybe take some pics so you can get a guess for where the buttons are on the screens you won't be able to see, as from your posts it sounds like the digitiser works?
i have an HD2 with a cracked screen i bought on craigslist. the unlock screen will stop working sometimes, and when i pull the battery and reboot, the home screen sometimes doesn't work. i've heard of these problems before but i'm not sure if this is a software or hardware problem. the previous owner had the phone running on AxLor DF1 XLite WWE. please help!
also i'd like to know how to flash to stock through micro sd, since i don't have a usb cable.
Thanks.

Go to this thread here, this is a thread on flashing from SD card. It has all the info you will need.
Also you can buy a replacement screen and install it. There is a couple of threads here on XDA on how to do this just do a search for them.

thanks, got on the stock T-Mobile rom now, but the touch screen on the lockscreen only sometimes works. would flashing to android fix this? i notice it will unlock sometimes after i press power then give it a few minutes, so i'm not sure if this is hardware or software related, and i'd like to avoid replacing the screen if i can.
EDIT: weird, i read a thread that said i should use the call button to unlock, and after a battery pull and waiting a few minutes, its worked for a bit, so i guess i found a temperary fix....
so now, i was wondering if its possible to boot android from the nand, and boot windows mobile 6.5, wp7, ubuntu, and meego from the sd, or can win mobile 6.5 only be booted from the nand? also, i need spl/hspl to boot all these things right?

You can't have them all. You can have WP7 running from NAND and Android running through SD. Not too sure on the rest though.

I know it would be a pain in the butt and in the wallet too. But it would probably benifit you to replace your screen. But this is a dessision that you will have to make for yourself.
Glad you found a teperary fix!
Yes you will need HSPL and also MAGLD flashed to your HD2 in that order to flash a NAND Andriod ROM. I beleive you can flash HSPL from your SD card, I think the thread I linked covers this. Buy I din't think you can flash MAGLD from your SD card. So you will have to have a USB cable for this. You can go to the HD2 Andriod NAND ROM section here on XDA and do a search for MAGLD and you will find the thread on it so you can double check and see if you can but I really don't think it is possibble. But you will have to have a USB cable to flash Andriod, WP7, MeeGo, and Ubuntu cause MAGDL does not have SD card flashing ability yet but they are working on it though. They are also working on being abale to run Windows Mobile 6.5 from SD card but as of right now it is not possibl, only from NAND right now. Also if you install a NAND Andriod ROM I think you can run WP7 from SD card but don't hold me to that cause I am not 100% sure of that, but if So that isit no other OS from SD card when running a NAND Andriod ROM.

thanks. for now i'll just work on installing android to the nand. i have a question though, will turning off the lockscreen in android possibly fix the touchscreen problem? i've been racking my brain trying to figure this out. i can either hurt my wallet with a screen repair, or i can do a battery pull every everytime i use the phone.. a real pain in the ass... sigh.. at least i got the phone cheap..

You know I can not say for sure if turning off the screen lock would solve your problem. But it sure is worth a shot so I say go for it and see. Also you can use a app like Touch Tools or BsB Tweeks to cut the lock screen off in Windows Mobile. Just do a search here on XDA or do a Google search for them and you will find them I recomend the Touch Tools this is a really great app. It adds a lot of tweeking ability to your HD2. I love it and have been using it for atleast 5 to 6 months now. Anyway if turn off the lock screen with one off these apps and it fixes your issue. Then you will know if you turn off the lock screen in Andriod it should have the same result. Heck if it fixes it you might just keep Windows Mobile ha ha just joking. I would not blame anyone for flashing a NAND Andriod ROM and getting rid of Win Mo. I personaly like Win Mo.
You're best off investing in a USB cable too lol. Your local hardware shop will have them. Its just a basic USB to micro USB cable.
I dont think any amount of tinkering with any OS is going to resolve your touchscreen problem............
The screen is cracked right?? Theres your problem.........
Could be issues with the digitiser as well because of this.
First job, new screen...........
i've been messing with the phone last night, and it seems the problem is related to the end call button. it seems whenever i try to wake up the phone with that button, it will freeze, while using the green button will wake up with no problem most of the time (>20% chance of freeze). it seems the freezing doesn't happen after a certain amount of time, since i left the phone in sleep all night and woke it up in the morning no problem. so in case anyone has the same problem as me and is too cheap to fix it, try only using the end call button when actually calling/putting the phone to sleep.
and where could i get a micro usb cable cheap besides online? i think t-mobile has them but they're like $10+...
it's dead again!
help! (again). the touchscreen is dead after i HAD to use the power button today, and now i can't use the touchscreen at all! i've tried turning the screen on and off like 50 times, tried like 10 battery pulls, but nothing! please help! can i open my phone somehow to get to the end key hardware or something???
earlier today also happened to me this problem, I install several rom a day, I can not go a day without testing new rom, I thought the problem was that, because I found this topic, when I use the button to connect the phone, everything is well, but not always the case that with the off button. Was it any rom that did this damage in some piece of hardware?

Sorry to tell both of you but your problems are hardware related. Member isoDUB yours is most definitly a hardware issue, but it has been a little bit sense you posted that post so I hope you have got your HD2 fixed or are working on getting it fixed. Member Body yours sounds hardware related to cause if you flash another ROM and you still have the problem with your buttons then it is most definitely a hardware issue.
Best option is to send to HTC and see if you can get a new one for free if you are under warranty.
same problem
hi
im not original english speaking so please excuse my bad english.
a few days ago i got the same problem. the display doesn't work when the phone was waked up with the endcall button.
when i woke up the phone with an other button the display worked.
i sended it to htc an they just told me they will not repair it because it is not in the original contition.
i flashed it with the latest original rom from htc but they didn't tell me what is wrong in detail.
i answerd them an asked what is wrong but until now i didn't get an answer.
Hello, I have a similar problem. When you unlock the screen so we jump on the green but some spots that disappear after a while.
Disaster strikes !!! Same prob here !!!
its indeed something with the buttons ... Touch screen is dead ... but sometimes its workin!!
Three months ago ... I changed the case of the HD2 with a new one. The "old"one was full of scratches ...
I think yhat HTC is not gonna accept that ... the "void-label" on the screw is damaged...
What do you think Guys ??
Grtz
every where the htc hd2 screen problem ........... i think that every one who has the htc hd2 facing the screen problem we shopuld start the new thread where we that who has the htc hd2 without any touch screen problem
Have the same damn problem ..once the screen is locked ..its impossible to slide it to unlock ..previously it was working 50% of the time and now it doesnt work at all :-(( ..
Any suggestions ? ...I read alot on the forums and people seem to say that its digitizer related but the imp thing is to note that almost 98-99% of the people having this problem are frequent Android rom flashers ..so does Android have something to do with this and will flashing original stock rom back be the solution ??
Hello everybody! It's samanen here, a newbie on xda. NOOOB
For first I'd like to apologize my not-so-good english, I'm 15 and from Finland so please keep the point in the problems and forget my english difficulties
Ok, splutting off and let's move to the point here
So I bought my HD2 (used) about two weeks ago, and right away tried to put WP7/android on it and sync music, contacts, videos and other stuff - but my USB connection didn't, and still doesn't work.
Ofcourse I tried reconnecting, cleaning the usb cable and port on the phone, tried another PCs and total of 10 different USB ports, another cable, Mac OS, Win7, WinXP, SyncMate, WMDC, ActiveSync, removing the battery, resetting the phone, removing SD-Card and SIM-Card, ActiveSync, Hard Disk and Faster data sync options, etc etc with no positive result. Its no fun having a mobile device with no access to put media and other stuff on it :/
Specs and facts:
HTC HD2 (aka Leo), non-T-Mobile (EU version?)
Software info:
Os Version : 5.2.21913 (21913.5.0.94)
Manila version : 2.5.20181527.0
ROM version : 3.14.405.2 (04666) WWE
ROM date : 09/29/10
Radio version : 2.15.50.14
Protocol version : 15.42.50.11U
Hardware info:
CPU : QUALCOMM(R) 8250B
Speed : 1024 Mhz
RAM size : 448MB
Flash memory size : 512MB
Enough numbers?
I think I have tried all the stuff I found here... Still no result, can't be detected on my PC. When I connect my phone to my PC, a notification pops up saying that USB device couldn't be detected/recognized, and it may be damaged. 1 second after it popped up it disappears and if I check the devices connected to the pc, there's no undetected devices anymore.. If I'm quick enough to click on the notification, it shows me what devices are connected and their situations, and I can see an undetected USB device there, but if I refresh (reopen) the window it disappears..
Also, if I use the option "When phone is on, do not charge the battery when connected to a PC." and connect to a PC via USB, it STILL does charge the battery. So my hypothesis is that the phone believes it's on a charger/car kit because its not getting recognized as a USB hard disk/device on my PC and still charges as it's connected to PC. Could this be possible in any way?
Also, when I got the phone and put it on the charger, CoPilot popped up every second (I closed it, it opened, etc) and I had to uncheck some option "When connected to a car kit open CoPilot automatically", so another thing there which refers to my phone being a psycho and believing its being on a charger.
I know there are people with this problem, and topics on this forum, but I think my problem is a bit different from theirs and nobody has really got an answer for this..
Then to my second problem. I can't enter Bootloader mode, or Hard Reset mode.
When I hold down the volDown button and press the bootup button, my phone either normally boots up or doesn't even boot up or show signs of booting into bootloader.
Once I got into the bootloader after dozens of tries, but as I'm stupid, I didn't write down the numbers shown there.. And now I seem not to be able to enter bootloader even after 20 tries.. Hardreset neither works. Same plan - either normally boots up or doesn't do anything. Weirdo much? Can anyone help? :/ I think I've bought an useless device..
Thanks,
samanen
Hi man! Try to flash your phone from SD card with stock ROM. Hope you will get good result! Let me know what happens!
Maybe it is your usb cable. I also can not sync with the cable that was delivered with the official carkit. It is just possible to load the device with that cable.
Your bootloader problem could be caused by broken volume buttons. I think they often get destroyed when replacing a broken touch screen. Do they work without problems inside the os?

Hai there! Thanks for your suggestion! What rom version would you recommend? I'm such a noob with these roms etc so I'd appreciate much if you/somebody could tell me what to use I will try that as soon as I find my microSD->SD adapter (Im afraid it got into vacuum cleaner as I cleaned my room ), also I have no idea how that's done but I believe there's a tutorial on xda.

I have tried 2 different cables, one from the package the previous owner provided me and another one from my dad's N97 mini. Could I be so unlucky that those cables are ones that don't work with HD2? I hope I am If you think its about the cable, what cable would you suggest me to get? Just a basic microusb cable from the electonic store? Also the previous owner told me he wiped out all the data and synced the phone before sending it to me WITH the cable provided, so.. Idk Strange.
No, my volume buttons are working great inside the os, I can adjust vol down and up well without any problems. Also my volbuttons are not sticky or feel like broken so I just don't believe that theyre damaged. Also the screen has never got damaged or repaired.
Another problem - Isn't it required to enter bootloader mode when updating the rom? :/
Thanks for both of you for your replies and suggestions, I will keep you updated if anything helps or gets clarified!
-samanen
Sorry then i can not help you. I do not think it is the cable. I bought one on amazon. It is official htc charging and syncing cable. This just came to my mind because you said that your copilot starts if you plug your phone in....
If you want to install another winmo rom you can do it when connected via active sync and it will automatically go to bootloader. If you want to install hspl for custom roms or android you have to go to bootloader for the installation.

By your info i can say that you have European Model phone. You must firstly check volume buttons, after. Download official ROM by IMEI of you one. As i know sometimes problem in usb connector in phone. I repair some HD2's by replasing usb connector. I living near you) In little poor Belarus))) try this steps and let me know.
Also. If u want i can help you in repair process. Its very simple) i have a big experience with hd2's and iPhones) and other ones. Because i think you boughta bad repaired phone with bad volume buttons and usb connector

Man, do you think they could fix this in warranty/quaranty? I have still warranty left on this one and i think I could get a new one/HD7 in return
Yeah. They must fix it if you dont damaged phone mechanically(maybe previous owner replaced screen) or you dont flash hspl magld android Leo is still The King i think. Here more opportunities than in HD7 On eBay HD7 cheaper than HD2 because WP7 os not good than android let me know whats up!

No, I've never dropped it or anything and when it came from the previous owner the usb didnt work, and he has never replaced anything on this model (his previous model was replaced to this, completely new one because his previous model stopped working with no reason).
Maybe I should contact the warranty Thanks for the answers, let's see what they can do!

I changed my old iPhone 3G 16Gb white, in terrible condition to this HD2 and paid 100€ Yeah android or WP7 would be soo super cool, the customizability is the thing why I chose HD2! It's amazing how there are still developers developing new stuff for HD2, I highly aprreciate their work
Waiting for their reply from the warranty center!

Still no reply, wow. Today I got a message that my phone will be back in two weeks. Slow service.
They also told me, that as the usb is LOOSE when you plug the cable in, it may be my fault. wow. So they're not repairing it for free i quess..
My phone is back..
Ok, got my phone back. The mohterboard has been damaged, they told me it had got wet. That's something what's not under warranty, so they're not repairing it for free. The repair would cost almost 500€ so it's totally not worth it. The report says: USB-Connectiong is loose (from other components), also injury with water in screen and motherboard.
Seems that the last owner already knew it's damaged and sold me a damaged one, as he told me it's working 100%.
So, I don't have a clue what to do next. I think I should try repairing it myself but is it worth it? Or worth trying? Where can i get the parts and tutorials how to do this? I think i gotta only repair the usb thingy but i'm not sure - I'd love to get some help now. Thanks in advance.

I had the exact same problem and it seemed that my cable was loose. You can try repairing it by yourself (it's not under warranty) or trying different pc/cable.
Try this : go to your pc and remove USB driver from application control panel,and after reconnect hd2.
Probably us not a cable problem, but drivers problems.
Bye.

Hey gurus!
I have had my HD2 since opening day! Actually tmobile replaced it after a bit because of some defect (cant remember). I have since unlocked and installed gingerbread and then ice cream. The buttons had stopped being very responsive since WM 6.5. The power button has since stopped working and the other buttons are hit and miss. i really liked gingerbread and wanted to move back but want my phone to be useful. I am thinking I have to replace the hardware (digitizer?). Does anyone have a good guide (set of instructions) that might be able to assist me with this. I want to keep the phone and fix it myself. I have searched the internets and found a few things. I have been paroozing these forums for a long time now and trust you guys most. Any recommendations are welcome. I am a L1 Linux admin so am not the biggest noob ever....just a noob. I say that so you might be able to judge my tech ability.
Thanks in advance for the assist.

You don't have to replace digitizer in order to get your hardware buttons(Call, Home, Menu, Back, End/Power) work again: indeed you have to remove combo(LCD+digitizer/touchscreen) from the chassis(after taking apart your hd2) in order to replace hardware buttons flex(this is located between chassis and combo).
This is no simple action, but watching some videos(try to watch as more as you can) and with attention&care you'll finally get the job done.
Good luck!:fingers-crossed:
