yup..i thought of rooting my phone, but now
Have you tried pressing the Volume Up + Power button to get the recovery menu? I would try that first.
like i said before.. the phone is completely dead. I have tried it all, nothing can power it up. It doesn´t even feel the powercable.. the orange LED isnt on. I think its very strange that no one else have had this problem.
is it a h/w issue?
or have you resolved the problem already?
When the picture of the phone laying down with the triangle was up you didn't pull the battery did you?
I have got the same problem after updating to another rom. But the rom was defect or it didn't show progress in 5 min time. So I (stupidly) deciced to pull the battery from the phone.. and now I can't turn it on/charge..
please tell me if this is a fixable problem?

Yes, unfortunately i did :S i tried all buttons and it didnt help so i pulled the battery, what went wrong and what would the proper solution be? it said sucess when i flashed it and then the screen jumped up and it was already to late :S
I havent fixed the problem but it´s taking care of. I have it on service so in 1-2weeks i will get an answer.
Hi guys! Thought you might want an update with my problem.. i picked it up from the serviceplace today and thanks god it was an warranty thing. They said the mainboard was broken and replaced. Thats like the motherboard on a computer, correct? Can a f*cked up rooting/flashing be the reason?
Hey dude, i am guessing they replaced the mainboard because the chip that stores the rom has been courupted, they wouldnt have been able to diagnose it or replace the chip so must have been easier to replace the whole board haha. Your lucky they couldnt tell you had gained root on it!
hi guys, some days ago i tried to change rom on my htc magic...it wasn't my first time so when i was to upadate new ratio my mobile stopped to live :/ right now it's turn off and when i try to turn on it doesn't work.
only light i see it's when i recharge my mobile but if i try to push on power key the red light(recharging) stopping to works.
any idea? it's something i can do on it?
plz anyone can help me?
I have the same problem,the only thing you can do is to send it back to HTC so that they can repaire it. I´ve flashed a wrong SPL.
If you can´t go into recovery(press Home and On Button same time),or into fastboot(press Volume down and On Button same time),i think your phone is bricked.
tnx for your answer...it's very strange to see red light goes off when i push home+ power or volume down + power.
well i think i have to send it back to htc :/
Thats the same problem that i have. I send it back and sayed thats happening while i charging the phone. I have guarantie and after three weeks i got it back.
Hi, i bought an HTC Dream/Google G1/T-Mobile G1. I bought as faulty and asked the guy what did it had. He said he needed to flash and update software. So i bought it thinking that if that's the problem i'd solve it and end up with an Android phone. I paid €50 for it. Thing is i can't do anything to the phone. I plugged the battery, pushed power and it gives the normal vibrate and then nothing, the screen doesn't even light up. I have to take the battery out to power off the phone then. If i plug the USB, it lights the red LED, but no recognition of the phone by the PC, turn it on again...the same.
I've searched the forum, top to bottom, and i've tried almost everything to try and make something out of my beautyfull brick. Keys combination, *.img to SD, haven´t tried throwing it to the wall, but i'm almost there.
If i could even get to bootloader... I have a Diamond and flashed it numerous times and never had a glitch.
Can you guys help out ? Please, i've searched the forum, read almost every post about bricked phones, etc...
Sounds like they may have flashed the wrong firmware file or its physically damaged and they lied to you.
I am pretty sure it needs re-flashed with a jtag interface if it's only a software issue. Because if the recovery image is intact it will still say "t-mobile G1" and be stuck in a boot loop.
Have you tried to start the phone to fastboot mode(hold down the back button and press power), or recovery(hold home and press power) ?
If you can't get into either of those you either need to find someone with a jtag adapter or get your money back because it's dead.
Thanks for the reply.
I tried all of that... . How on earth will i find someone with a jtag adapter, at least in a nearby area... guess i have nice brick then. I read somewhere here on xda of a shop in India that recovers the phone but its way to far for me to send the phone, pay the fix and they send it back!!! Well i guess thats it, i got screwed...
So recently my HTC HD2 touch screen has been working on and off.. Sometimes it would work and sometimes it dosen't?? I have searched on Google for help but everyone gets different answers on how to fix it. Some say its a hardware problem, others say it is a Rom thing, and most say just send it back to HTC or your provider to get it fixed. But I dont have a warranty on mine anymore, and I live in Canada & use rogers, so they don't carry the phone?? So I am really stuck and have thought of a couple solutions but would like to ask you XDA forum people if it has worked for you??
I was thinking mine is a digitizer problem so I post some pics here to ask if anyone else gets these problems? and if so how it might be fixed
I also thought of buying a new Digitizer from ebay and replacing mine?? has anybody that and been successful with that??

Thank You for reading and taking your time to help me
The pictures at the bottom if you notice the opinion menu should not have a selected silent mode when I haven't pressed it. and the home screen should not have the light blue button lite up because I haven't pressed it?? (its in the corner of the screen) and the last pic if i am correct the "turn on usb storage" should not be blue it should be white since i haven't clicked it..
Did you find a solution to your problem? The same thing happened to my sisters phone just recently. Did replacing the digitizer work for you? Somewhere I read that pressing the end button hard enough to 'nudge' the digitizer (which is located under the end button) fixes the issue. For how long and how much truth is in that? I don't know haven't tried it.
hey!
i had the same exact problem, my htc suddenly stopped working (touchscreen) and it was weird because I never spilled any water on it, so I tried what you said, pushing hard the red button and it worked! at least it worked for me
pressing hard on the end button works for me
Hi thanks for the tip. this works for me for now...
wonder is this a sign that it is going to wear off soon.
CRAZY!!!! It worked!
Wow! Thanks alot for the tip, screen fixed again..
Where id this red button?
I think it is or POWER button or red small restart button under battery cover.

i stripped the phone down and the flex cable was not connected properly so i pushed it all the way in and now the screen is fully working,

I am amazed that this actually worked! I pressed it with my teeth a few times and the screen is now fully working again!! Before I found this thread I was on the phone with T-Mobile already setting up an exchange for a new phone. Which normally they would send you a new HD2 but T-Mobile no longer has the HD2 so they make you choose from the LG MyTouch, Samsung Exhibit 2 and the HTC Radar. I was soooo ****ing pissed because none of those phones are customizable like the HD2. I did a hard reset on my phone so now I'm redownloading all my apps...pain in the ass but at least I get to keep my phone.

Okay, I might have gotten excited too soon. Cause now the touch screen is on and off working...I don't know what to do. I don't want a ****ty new phone. I want my beloved HD2.
it worked for me too...awesome thanks yall
EDIT: worked temporarily for me, touchscreen stopped working after few minutes
Mine is on/off working but I've found that screen works as long as end button is not used, when I use the red button I have to wait until it sleeps to wake it with any other button instead. Maybe a couple of times before finally get it to work.
Don't know if its related. Thanks in advance.

For everyone with this problem, It means that your hard buttons are wearing out, getting sticky. Its like if the esc key on a keyboard gets stuck, nothing can be done because it keeps esc'ing, well the same applies here on the HD2. Sh*t happens. Sorry.
I love this forum
I LOVE U ALL
COZ UMKE MY PHONE COMES ALIVE , & ME 2
THANK U ALL SOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH
thank you for above information
Thanks a lot, htc hd2 is in live again!
Thanks a lot, Htc hd2 is in live again!
After experiencing the same issue, I was also ready to buy new one, maybe Htc Desire HD.
I was running MIUI GB, I done hard reset several times, I downgrade the phone to W6,5, but nothing Happen, I went to HTC but the phone wasn't anymore under waranty and they ask me €240.00 to fix it, then I decide to change by myself the touch screen + Digitizer €45.00 average on Ebay, and/or keypad key button flex ribbon cable parts €7.00 average on Ebay.
And then waiting for the parts I'd just install Screen off an d Lock Apkdecided to don't use anymore the power red button until that I saw this thread. To simple to be true, but I tried, and it works, not every time but most of the time.
So it is just to change the keypad key button flex ribbon cable parts €7.00 average on Ebay.
Thanks again to all of you.
Screen Issues
My screen froze up occasionally as well. Seemed like more of a software issue rather than hardware; however, when I replaced the screen it went away completely.
cannot beleive it worked
pushed really hard on tghe call end button and now the key touchscreen works. God bless the internet.
Has anyone of you guys encountered the same issue with your HTC HD2? Care to share the fix you did? Would this mean bye-bye to my HD2 already?

If a clean install (task 29) doesn't help, then I guess you have no other option than sending it for reparation.
It seems like there is a limited life span on the touchscreen. Mine died in October, and I had to buy a replacement because nothing I did fixed the problem.
I had the same issue as you, but in my example touchscreen is slowly dying. For example I can't wake up the phone pressing right (red) button. So I learned that using any other button will not cause freeze of screen. I also discovered that if you gently slap your phone on hand, magically screen starts responding. Weird, but it's ‘working’ like this since 5 months so far.
I just encountered this problem with my HD2 as well. It seems that this is a fairly common issue. Apparently the digitizer for the touchscreen is located directly beneath the red power button and has a tendency to lose its connection.
For me, holding the red power button down with some force for about 5 seconds fixed the issue. Is this temporary? Perhaps, but it has worked just fine for a few days now. Try that out.
Can't Unlock the Phone..
I am having the same problem..I can't unlock the phone..No matter what android Rom I installed.I tried to removed the lock screen and the touch stopped working..But when the phone restarts and you put you pin etc,I can use the phone normally..but when it goes black and trying to turn it on again nothing works on the screen..
Though the hard buttom works..Home screen etc..but can't get the touch to work after the screen goes black!
It's not rom related
I have installed WM6.5 (Stock), Android GB, Android ICS, Android JB But the problem appears to be the same in all
when I press Red button touch doesn't work any more
I would go with digitizer theory
BUT my question is this:
is it gonna get worse? cause for now as long as i avoid Red button everything is OK :good:
and I love my HD2 but if getting worse is possible I have to get rid of it :crying:
Well i had the same problem.now my phone has been to the service centre for reparing

Funny (or sad) thing is we don't have an official service center here
so only option is to replace it or sell it as the way it is
Try this:
Lock the screen normally, screen turns off. (Power button)
To turn it on again by pressing any other screen buttons other than the power button. (DONT USE THE POWER BUTTON TO DO THIS)
I found that if I do it this way, the screen runs normal.
