Partial brick?

i picked up a phone lastnight from a friend, he said it quit booting.
i did a hard reset, and it booted fine. i set it up via wifi, all good. i went to restart it, and it stays @ the " stick together" screen. @ the bottom of the screen it also has
R 2.15.50.14
G 15.42.50.11 U
D 3.14.04666 8G
it never go's past that on a reboot.
i flashed the latest oem mu it booted, set up all fine, installd HSPL rebooted, got the above again.
sugestions?

forgot to mention, @ this point there is neither a sd card in it or a sim. does the make a differance?

UPDATE: i ran task 29, no go on first 3 trys.... finaly it seems i got it cleaned out. reflashed stock again, then hard, chucky rom just booted up... now to get it set up, then on to setting up some android goodness so i dont have to deal with win-blows

update: so much for being solved...
i rebooted multiple times last night to make sure it would, all was good.
got up in the am, picked it up and none of the apps would open, sence locked up and wouldnt restart, so i did a soft reset. now its stuck @ the boot screen again....
ive tryed pulling the sd, soft resets, pluging it in, etc.. nothing.
its realy to bad,i had hi hopes for it after talking to guys running android on it.

why not just uninstall hspl and flash stock rom. then call tmobile to replace it.

i bought the phone used from a friend, ie: no warrenty.... as stated in the op.
yesterday afternoon, i ran task29 probably 5 times back to back, pulled the bat, let it sit about 10 min, powered back up, ran task29 a few more times for good mesure, then reflashed. all has been good so far.

[Q] HELP!!!

my hd2 shut down twice by it self today but after second shut down the phone is not booting completely it stays on after the two boot screens, it stays on the orange windows page and not finish boot. ( 2.13 stock rom)
i did like 10 hard resets and nothing
maybe or my only solution is to flash another ROM, im thinking the 3.14 upgrade cuz i was on 2.13.
i did upgrade from 2.10 to 2.13 but my phone was on and sync with my pc (this was like 7 months ago)
i just want to know if i can upgrade to 3.14 with the phone in the three color screen boot screen or i have to do the whole hspl thing and flash a custom rom??

Flashing from bootloader is how ANY ROM flashes. Put your device in bootloader, connect via USB, and flash away!

Big THANKS
i did flash my phone before but it was up and running but because it was an upgrade form the tmobile site the phone went to bootloader by it self and not by me so i was confused if i do it directly been on bootloader it will work but now i know
thanks again

ok, so i flashed the stock upgrade 3.14 ROM from TMOUS site but problem didn't go away, it crashed, it shutdown by it self and not turning on, not even vibrate or went to boot page it just didn't do anything , so i waited almost a day to turn it back on and the phone did turn on but i tried it in bootloader and flashed a custom ROM (BlueTopia 1.0.2 by cmylxgo) and it was working like a charm with android
BUT silly me i took the storage card out without turning the phone off and android running so when i realize i did it i put it back but phone was off and now it don't want to turn on. I'll wait like 15 min to try turn it back on and see what happens...
could it be a software thing?? i'm starting to think is hardware problem because it happened with 3 different ROMs?
does anyone had this problem before??

About to destroy my HD2 (Need help)

This phone has been giving me hell for a really long time.
In short; it don't work. It will flash but will never boot right.
When I got my HD2 it had the stock WinMo 6.5.3 ROM that worked perfectly. I played with booting Android off my flash drive but got the fast audio problem. So I flashed ChuckyDroidROM, and used that for a month with some different Android builds, all worked fairly well.
But then one day, it started crashing after a while of use. Sometimes it would just not let me unlock it, and other times it completely crashes and restarts. Every time it happened earlier and earlier after booting.
So I tried Task29 and putting the stock ROM back on it, no go. It crashes right after it boots.
Now I've flashed HSPL 2.08.HSPL, Radio 2.15.50.14, and MAGLDR 1.12. I'm trying to flash WP7 to it, but since the MAGLDR menu doesn't show up, I can't flash anything.
It boots into MAGLDR, but just shows "aMAGLDR V1.12, Build: 12 2011 XX:XX:XX, by Cotulla 2011" but nothing else. The menu doesn't show up, but it did once....
Any ideas? I'm desperate. I'm about to blow it up....
EDIT: Now it won't even f**king turn on!!!! And yes the battery is FULL

I'm having an issue with my HD2 also (even though I've flashed it successfully several times) so this sounds like a very, very isolated issue. The problem I'm having - disabled phone functions in WP7 - also appears to be an isolated issue. Sometimes these things can be the result of a bad flash. Give this thread a week. You're in the right place.

When your rebooting and the splash screen shows up are you holding down the power button to gain access to magldr options?

Did you took out your SD card? If no, take it out, try turn it on. If you can reach the boot (means the multicolors menu) than your good to flash.
I have the feeling that might be because of damaged SD card (similar issue I had). Hope that helps.
Good luck!

Yes I am. It showed up today, and I was able to flash WP7 to the device, but now it will not boot into WP. It freezes at MAGLDR, no options.

I can flash anything I want, it just never boots, or it boots and then crashes immediately. I have tried with and without my SD card/SIM card.

Wow it seems as if your doing every thing right. My suggestion is, Re-flash the stock Rom that came with the phone, Revert back to the original radio and spl. Call your sevice provider for a replacment phone as it sounds like its defective. Thats what i would do.

Go into Bootloader Flash a Stock Rom.
Then Update the Radio
Format SD -.- but backup your Data
and try to reflash MAGLDR
After that try to reflash Wp7 it should work

New developement:
It won't turn on, period. Nothing.
The power button does nothing, the reset button does nothing, nothing works.
The battery is at 4.1V, it's rated at 3.7V, would that cause the phone to not turn on?

Maybe a hardware failure.
Any warranty?

This happens when the phone over heats dont turn it for a while and dont have it conect it to the computer or anything when u try turn it on.

[Q] White screen

Hi, I recently sent my phone in to have the USB connector port repaired, when they sent it back everything was hunky dory. I immediately installed Android, the TyphoonN ROM by Twyeen. It was working fine no issues or anything then about a week ago it wouldn't load the screen, so I took the battery out put it back in and there was a white screen. I was driving at the time so my girlfriend kept trying it, anyway after about 30minutes it booted fine.
So I just went on with my phone ignoring what had happened, and yesterday the same thing happened and it has been just under 12 hours now and every time I turn it on it has a white screen, unless if I hold volume down and go into bootloader. This is the weird thing as the bootloader loads fine, the full Tricolour screen and everything. My computer also recognises my phone in bootloader.
Can someone help me please?

If your bootloader loads fine I would suggest a full reset from square one installing hspl, magldr, then android.

Ok thank you. How would I go about doing that please?

Did you fix that problem?
I think I'm in same situation.
Give me some advice, please.

Erm no, I left it for a while and it was fine, but it did it twice at work yesterday and now wont come out of it after over 12hours again. If you are in warrenty I would unflash everything and send in to HTC.
Sorry.

Thank you for your help & advice. But my warranty is expired...
And when I tried to flash back to init., it didn't work.
leoimg.nbh - 9% and reboot & white screen
task29 - about 4% and reboot & white screen
HSPL - 1% and reboot & white screen
Anyone can help me??
Thanks in advance.

T-Mobile HTC HD2 boot loop

Ok so I mean I wanna say i'm proud of myself for getting as far as I did. I had a HD2 running on a NRG Energize rom. The touch screen was unresponsive so I got that fixed at a repair shop. Then it was having a problem booting and kept going thru this boot loop showing me NRG Energize over n over. I tried to run the t-mobile upgrade to the 3.14 but it got stuck at 8% and wouldn't go passed that. I ended up doing the extraction thing when u rename the nbh file to leoimg and got the phone to run the upgrade from that. I thought all my problems would be solved but the phone started up and as i was setting up my e-mail and stuff it froze and restarted. now its stuck on this stick together boot loop... I don't know what to do next, all i'm trying to do i get this phone working even if its at a stock capacity. Any thoughts i should do now?

So what i'm getting from searching the forums so far is that when i get back to the phone i should check the battery pins? can anyone confirm this? Cause the phone starts up but it'll freeze and reboot or just hit the bootloop from the time i turn it on. keeps stopping.

Yea battery pins should be the first check.
