Hi,
I have owned my HTC HD2 for about 3 months now. I have had a problem since i first got it which is really bugging me. Sometimes when the phone locks, i am unable to unlock it with the slider. The slider gets to about half way across the screen and then freezes. If i leave it for a few minutes it goes back to a locked position agian and when i attempt to slide the slider across, it freezes.
The only thing which gives me access to my phone again is to perform a hard reset by removing the battery.
Any ideas? The phone is on UK Vodafone and is running the latest firmware (v.1.72)

I don't have an answer, its likely to be sense trying to load something and hanging.there are loads of threads about unlock problems, all different, however I wanted to help you avoid confusion by pointing out that removing the battery is a soft reset, not a hard reset.
I'd start by removing some apps, see if it changes the behavior, then re add til it happens
i've the same issue. but not removing battery, just press little red restard button uder battery cover. i think it happens when i enable rotation of today screen or because of proximatelyscreenoff program bug. after removing today from rotation of bsd tweek i have 1-2 restarts for 2 weeks.
I had the same thing sometimes, but never happened with the latest rom I am using, and I am pretty much installing the same apps over and over after each flash...
You aren't by chance running the facebook application?
Leaving that open and locking your phone will result in you not being able to unlock your phone
I wonder if this problem has anything to do with power supply; I sometimes can't unlock the screen either and a few moments ago my battery had run out and when putting it on AC I wasn't able to unlock it. When it had charged a bit there were no problems unlocking it.

HD2 screen unlock probblem
Hi All,
I have put my screen unlock code as 0000 and set as 5 mins to lock the phone.
But that is becoming a headache now.
Sometime the phone behaves very unusual, it doesn't takes my code "0000", no option rather to reset the phone or remove battery and restart.
After the reset the phone works with my code (0000) but don't know when the same problem starts again.
Need Help..
Anyone solved this problem?
In the Att Tilt2 the power button was on Top & could close the Screen while talking on the phone
How do we do that in the HD2 cos its Off button is on the Red Call Shut button
Anyone

HD2 Hard Locked
Okay...so maybe Facebook is locking my HD2. It's LOCKED I'm recharging, I've attemted a soft restart, hard restart and every other restart out there...nothing is working. I even tried pushing the white button below the battery case and holding the volume up and down...I actually thought that it began to do a hard restart. It did begin but then it got stuck at the "swipe" demo. It is definitely stuck.
HELP!!!!

leave it under tap water for 2 mins than take the battery out and put it back in. now you should be unlocked.
If it was your kid who did that and he was smart enough to put down the same lock pattern twice, he should be smart enough to tell you which pattern he used, right?
Just do all you you can to get into download mode and do a wipe. I don't know odin but I think that can help you? If you bring to t mobile they will just put it in download and wipe.

If you try entering the incorrect pattern five times you will see a screen where there will be a place to click for people who forgot their password. It will ask you to enter your gmail user name and password. then will ask you to set a new unlock pattern and you will be fine
Get into recovery and do a factory reset/wipe depending on the recovery you use, keep trying tell you get it to boot into recovery.
You dont need to factory reset my method works fine already tested

Hey Guys, I have the same problem. I have an unlocked T-mobile phone here in Ontario Canada so that I can use it on the Wind mobile network.
I can't rememeber the pattern or the phone won't accept my pattern, I have lost my mind. I tried many different times.
the phone does not ask me for gmail account after 5 times but keeps on waiting 30 secs after 5 tries and then lets me try againa and again and again.
I tried to reset the phone with holding the vol down and pushing the power button, but it only goes back to the pattern screen.
I can answer the phone when I call it but that is it.
Can some one please help me.
I also downloaded kies, but it wont connect since I cannot get into the settings of the phone to let the usb connect with kies.
hope you can help..
cheers.

Hold both the vol+ and vol- and the power. You will see vibrant on the screen. Well keep on holding it will go black again. Keep holding... It will come back...let go...you should be in recovery mode. Delete user data. This will wipe your phone.

Hey seriously does this work? I have a Vibrant and two other Android phones (ie three different unlock patterns). I took the requirement to do the unlock patern off on the vibrant for the last couple of months and when I thought of allowing it I realized I have been messing with the other two phones more and forgot the unlock pattern on the vibrant.
Currently my Vibrant is in use but I will like to be able to lock the screen now that my GPS and lag problems are much better fixed, but I do not want to wipe everything first. If this works I can enable the lock pattern and try different patterns till I get to this screen....but it has to be for real before I loose all my connections and presets etc on the phone.

yeah, i've noticed that too but tbh, i wouldn't buy one of those just in case it was stolen. i'm hoping ppl will also be as wary of those devices.
This Is What Happened To Me, My Friend Kept Doing The Unlock Pattern And Made My Phone Get Locked Out, I Wasn't Worried Cause I Had My Email And Pass, Well Turns Out The Email And Pass Didn't Work...At All, It Kept Saying It Was Wrong And I Couldn't Go Into Recovery Mode Or Download Mode Because I Guess It Was A Hardware Locked Vibrant? I Have No Clue, Long Story Short This Is What You Do, Either Switch Out The Vibrant, OR Go Into ADB And Fastboot, Reboot Into Recovery

I tried this, it still will not go to recovery mode. Are there any other ways of having to put this phone in recovery?
I am so pissed.
thanks guys
If your phone does not get into recovery or download. Best thing to do is just bring it into samsung for warranty repairs or exchange. Samsung canada covers it now free of charge. That's what I had to do, nothing worked for my first i9000m to get into recovery/download.

you are full of chit my friend. I've locked myself out of multiple android devices using the lock pattern and my gmail account unlocked them all.
If you don't know the unlock code and don't know the gmail username and password for your email account... sounds pretty darn stolen to me.
prove me wrong and I will be happy to help other wise go find a new route you thieves.

I did not steal this phone I bought it. I just calle tech support in Canada, and they told me to call tech support in the US. The US tech support told me that to do a hard reset, I have to hold down the Vol up and Vol Down button and power button for 15 sec and then let go to get to a reboot screen. I tried and it did not work. Then I asked to send the phone in for repairs and they said that it was not in warranty since I used it in canada???? Now I am **** out of luck.
cheers.
i'm experiencing a problem, every time i try to turn off my device the screen becomes unresponsive, also I tried to flash now a nand android ROM and i'm not even able to input my PIN number to unlock my device because my screen does not responds i really need help... pls i really apreciate if someone can help me with this
Update: now is getting worse, now the screen does not respond at all, i have picture, but it does not do anything, does not recognize anything, even turn off by itself just like if you where not doing anything to the screen, please I really need help
Maybe you could pull out the battery then put it back in and before you boot up, enter bootloader mode by holding the end button down and both the volume buttons down at the same time....then restart with a fresh rom or something...you probably already know this is a hard reset and everything will be flashed back to whatever rom you have....but maybe it will fix whatever is in conflict with your phone... a fresh start! But if your flashing roms then you probably already know this. Hope this helps.
The digitizer/lcd combo is pretty much dead on your phone. Same thing happened to many members here on the forum as well, those who own HD2s and even other HTC devices. Solution is for HTC to replace it (the digitizer). Chances are you are still under warranty; send it in for a free repair. If not under warranty, will cost you ~ 110 USD. I am currently waiting for mine to be repaired.
I have SPB Mobile Shell installed, and have never had any big issues until yday. For some reason it did not want to unlock when I entered the unlock code. I am absolutely sure I entered the right code, but it said it was wrong (I am not talking about the pin, but the code for locking the keypad). I tried to do a soft reset, but I am not even able to get to the pin-code screen login, as I have to unlock the device before this. In the beginning it said the password I entered was wrong, but now nothing even happens when I press the unlock button after entering the password.
Any ideas, or do I really have to do the hard reset??
If I am correct you have to slide to unlock and then enter your 4 digit number to access the phone.
I had this issue a few weeks ago and tried every method to unlock it. The symptoms that you are describing are exactly what I had. I know that I was entering the right number but the message that came up was 'wrong pincode'.
I contacted HTC and they couldn't help me and suggested that I do a hard reset. I reluctantly had to do this and it was reset to factory settings. JUST BACK UP YOUR STUFF. All my footprints were lost. Good luck !!
Yes, thats the exact same problem as I have. Guess hard reset is the only way out.. =/ I do have all the contacts backed up in Outlook, and as far as I know the memorycard will not be deleted, so all photos etc will hopefully not be lost. But anyway quite annoying.. =/
Hello,
I have a problem with my "sharp softbank aquos 402SH
I setup a pattern lock. Since I have not used the phone for some time I cannot remember the pattern anymore.
I thought an unlock with a hard reset is no problem. But I found no way to boot into recovery mode(tried power and minus button, power and plus button to boot).
Also the device did not show up in adb as a device(Windows 8/Sharp USB driver installed) but was recognized as a storage device.
The user manual says:
"Do not forget pattern, Lock No. passcode or password set for canceling Screen lock(write it down if necessary). If you forget it, visit the nearest SoftBank Shop for recovery procedure."
As I live in Sudan and there are only softbank stores in Japan. So this is not possible for me.
Is there any other way to hard reset the device?
same prob

Are you sure? Have you tried power-cycling the device? (Let it discharge all the way, and charge it all the way.)

thx
i also have that kind problem also show to many people but no way found of any to recover my bally please do something
As I think this phone did not get that many updates this might still work. I remember early on back then that i somehow managed to make a pattern that I had not meant to so could not unlock. Also quickly found out I could not get into the bootloader. But I found out you could bypass the lockscreen if you went into the emergency call screen. The thing is, you'd have to make a call then you could use the drop down notifications and enter settings app or something like that. I can't remember clearly, but I could atleast get access. And from there i just disabled the pattern. Don't feel I can recommend this though as it depends on how quick you are, and police services are sort of being misused this way. I remember being frazzled and extremely annoyed at that point as I had only had the phone for a couple of days. Ended up spamming a call three or four times to the cops to bypass without connecting a call. They called me back wondering what the deal was ? oops.
