i think my phone is dieing

Hello all,
I'm not sure but i think my blackstone is on its last legs.
It all started after i flashed to Dutty's last rom the r15 one. Did the usual uspl and eveything went to plan. Then about a week ago the phone frooze, i could'nt get it to reset so had to take the battery out (no biggy). Then tried turning it back on, and it just frooze again right at the windows start-up screen. So did a hard reset and the phone seemed very slow and jumpy.
Then i thought maybe the download of dutty's rom wasn't the best. So today i had planned to install a different rom and see if it was just a bad download or sumthing. And heres the big problem, i can't get the bootloader to connect to my pc.
And what seems strange is that when i enter the bootloader it flashes up with the re/green/blue/white screen andt ehn it shows a grey screen with "loading......." for about 10 seconds then comes back the normal bootloading screen. As usual serial pops up at the bottom, but when connected to my pc it won't show USB!!
I have win7 64, but i have set it up so i can flash using USPL as thats how i got dutty's R15 rom on there.
Any help would be great and hopfully i can get this sorted swn as i love my hd.
p.s
i've spent the past 2 hours searching here and havent found anyone with the same problem.
Thanks
Antony

if you could update from the sd card that would solve some of your problems.but i realy do not know if it is working if you do not have HSPL.
maybe you can find some info on the forums about updating via sd card without HSPL.
or you could try to connect to a computer with other operating system than windows 7.

i am now installing the stock rom.
hopefully then i wil be able to install a cooked rom again.

Thanks for the help,
I will see what the outcome is from the stock rom. And if i can't get it working again with win7 then i'll have to set up my mini pc (made a pc inside an old nintendo SNES) as thats got xp running
thanks once again

just for my curiosity what method are you using to flash a stock rom if you cannot connect to computer through usb?

Well after more hours spent reading thro web page after web page, i stumbled over someone saying that it could be down to the usb cable and i have a few mini usb one, so tried them all, finally got the bootloader to show the usb.
I was then going to install a cooked rom, but thought i'd be the best to go for stock first.
All is working ok now. I'm not sure if it was down to the usb cable totally tho as it was a bit strange the whole grey loading screen on the bootloader which has gone now with the stock rom.
ah well looks like its fixed for now.

hi can anyone help me please :(.

please try a hard reset, that should help solve the problems.
i doubt if this is anything to do with ROM you flashed (since you have flashed successfully, as your phone does boot.
if none of this works please post.
a hard reset should help you though.

i see, error222.
please make sure that your USB cable is working.
pleasemake sure your computer has active sync 4.5 installed ( if windows XP)
or the latest WMDC (if vista or win7 )
also regarding the memory card, are u sure the card is fine ?
please put it another device/card reader and check, try formatting it and see if ur elf detects it.
ROMs usually don't have anything to do with memory drivers.
what HSPL/USPL did u flash ?

task29 erases EVERYTHING from your internal storage.
To flash a ROM now turn off the phone (battery pull).
hold the volume down key and press power.
You will now be at a tri-color screen.
now flash any WinMo rom from RUU or flash magldr for Android/WP7.

when you plug your phone into your PC and you're in bootloader does it say "USB" on the phone?
edit: you on a tmobile USA phone or international one?

uk t mobile unlockd when i try'd it in my frends pc it says it dectects the procsser but wont install hardwaare but it dont have activesync on it /running xp

You don't need activesync on it since you are running from the bootloader. The only reason you would use activesync is to get it into bootloader mode.
does it say USB on your phone in bootloader when you connect it?

task29 erases everything except the HSPL...
so...after task29...
flash your stock ROM and done!
OR
if you want to use a custom ROM that INCLUDES a radio, then flash the ROM and done!
OR
if you want to use a custom ROM that DOES NOT INCLUDE a radio, then flash the chef recommended radio and ROM and done!
i have a feeling this "omega" ROM you speak about might not include a radio. this would be mentioned in the thread of the omega ROM...read and proceed accordingly.

I had the same problem. Turns out it won't work on my Lappy that is running XP but when I tried again using my wifes Lappy with Windows 7 it went straight on. I was at it for two days trying to get it to work. Took only a few minutes once I swapped Lappy's!!.

Bootloader not detected at PC

Hello,
Today i have tryed to flash a new CWM on my HD2.
But i get always an error "USB init. Failed" so i've searched in google an in this forum for an solution but i haven't find any.
I've tryed to flash CWM in Bootloader mode but my pc's (2 XP ones and 1 Win7) don't detect my phone.
Please Help

install windows mobile device center to your pc.otherwise it doesn't recognize it.

I have installed WMDC. But it doesn't recognize it at all.

but cwm isnt flashed from bootloader? r u using magldr or clk?

MAGLDR but also in Flasher mode nothing happend. In WMDC i have already disabled USB Connections but also -.- nothing

try another pc. and last solution format pc(i did so a few weeks ago when i met the same problem)

after last time i formated my computer imy phone wasnt detected in computer ...in bootloader i couldnt see USB just serial ...i just installed activesync ...and right after phone was detected ...so try to install activesync and see

[q] htc hd2 flashing rom issue
Can anybody help me.I have MAGDLR and the Bootloader installed by a previous chap who owned the phone, all the correct versions. THe phone HD2 (T-Mobile), when I got it, had Gingerbread on,but the FM radio was not working,
so I thought an Upgrade was in order. I went to the MIUI website and downloaded the latest stable rom and followed the instructions as best as possible, but I had problems with the
Bootloader going from Serial to USB and being able to flash the rom like that. I then tried the loading the rom ZIP file to the SD card, and then using Clockwork orange recovery to
to install the ZIP file from SD card. That being said, I rebooted and the phone just stayed hung on the HTC logo screen. (And I didn't do a back up, before I started.)
I eventualy found a Jaws MIUI rom, that instaling via Clockwork Orange, worked, but it is Froyo and not a lot of stuff works very well. What is the correct procedure to install
from SD card, with Clockwork Mod Recovery? The Roms that I download, do I have to unpack the zip, do something on the files? I have read that depending on the rom that you have, when
doing a ClockWorkMod Recovery installation, that you need to have the right Size partition or image disk version of the Clockwork recovery MOD, But I can't swap and change this as my USB does not work between the phone and the PC.
I have installed active sysnc, does not work and I have tried this both on my Desktop and Laptop. As the one response suggests, Formatting your PC seems a bit extreme.
Help, Pleeeeeeeeez!
Thanks

After many tests with other PC´s and USB cables and different Windows / Linux installations I have noticed that my phone doesn't charge -.-
I think its an Hardware Porblem of my Phone. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Usb port is gone on your phone get it replaced.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

Hello, I'd love to mention one thing bec I got the same problem like some fri. No need to worry fri.My problem troubleshooting is " Just install Windows Mobile Device Center". Thanks all and I love xda.

Help me please to fix my phone

My phone got a little liquid on it and after that it frozen so I did a soft reset and now my phone is freezing on android boot screen every time. The problem is what my MAGLDR is not working properly now too and my ClockworkMod Recovery is not working at all, so I don't know how to reinstall soft now. The MAGLDR is kind of flashing always and its hard to control as sometime its not reacting to my button push. And then I try to go into ClockworkMod Recovery its just starts loading, does that 1234 go and it freezes on it, every time. But besides all this stuff my phone looks like working fine, just looks like it just has some software damage. I think it should work with a new soft if not at least I can send it to my insurance as I will change a soft back to normal, because now my insurance will not fix my phone as it freezes on android boot screen so whey will see that I have android and not windows. Waiting for any good advice. Thank you
Btw. My original boot loader is not working too, I can't get in to it. I think its because of the android.

i suggest flash the stock rom first , then do all the work again flash MAGLDR and then recovery and then the android rom you want to use and read the instruction for your device if you using hd2 EU or hd2 T-Mobile ... good luck

That's what I waned to do, but last time when I tried to connect it my computer couldn't find my phone. That's why I'm asked for a help here. I will try to connect it later today, after I come back from my work and I will post it here, if its connects or not

So yes, like I said before I cannot connect my phone using MAGLDR. USB Mass storage is working fine, when using USB Flasher my computer detects my phone but when I try upgrade a soft, I get connection error, it cannot find my phone. I don't know any other ways to connect my phone as I cannot get into boot loader Any help???

'USB mass storage is working fine'
You may be able to flash a stock ROM from the SD card but I think it involves the bootloader. Have a look at This thread and see if it helps (I CBA to read it properly, sorry )

Thanks, but yes it involves the bootloader

Does Bootloader normally work if MAGLDR & ClockworkMod Recovery is installed on device?

yea man its working fine in my phone .... okay how about if you get your phone and connect it to another pc ... maybe the wrong with your pc ... and run the usb flasher and flash the stock rom bro

Yeah that's a good point. If you can, trying PCs with different versions of Windows could help (i.e. XP, Vista, Windows 7 etc.)

Ok so I managed to connect my phone via USB Flasher on my work computer and I installed "[30.DEC.10][DFT]LEO "Stock Desire" NAND Android ROM" without any problems but my phone still stucks on DFT Boot screen. I also tried to reinstall MAGLDR and ClockworkMod Recovery to get Clockwork Recovery work but it didn't work, it didn't change anything. Does any one have any ideas what can I do next? Is it possible to install wm 6.5 via USB Flasher? As I know it needs bootloader Does any one have more ideas how to fix it?

yea bro install the stock rom as wm6.5 using the usb flasher ... get it back to the stock then re-install any rom you want

I can't! Because wm 6.5 requires connection between bootloader or active sinc, there is not other way when instaling wm 6.5, and none of them work now on my device
