It's a known issue. Sometimes a long press of the end-call button will bring up the display, but that's rare. It normally needs a soft-reset/battery out to reboot the phone.
It's obviously a software issue as the buttons light up when you press them, then turn off when they time-out, and then light up when pressed again, so the OS is still running happily in the background.

during my search and tries for applications and tweaks for the device, i remember i saw something that assign a display wake up on the long end press, and something that wake up on shaking the device, is there any confirmation if these tools solve this issue?

Nope - try them. You could be the hero that confirms it

Today was my turn to have that issue. Unfortunately :-(
I 've been looking for an answer, but there is no solution. Just a thread that talk about that the issue is caused by SD-card, corrupt files, formatting issue...
Please, do we have any solution for that issue? it started this morning and I have it 4 times today.

hmm. happened to me today. don't know what caused it.

I had this problem today as well for the first time. I thought it was to do with having the animated weather wallpaper and having rain. Today for the first time I had it predicting rain and my Leo kept saying "Loading touch sense" when coming out of lock. It's never done that before.
Then after an hour of lock it refused to wake, despite the physical keys lighting up.

I had this problem also today as well for the first time! But twice, so basically the first time and second time
First time phone wouldn't go on, touching the screen, hitting the spot where the lockslider was (in the dark), pressing short or pressing long on hard-buttons. The phone didn't respond at all.
Second time the hard-keys would light up, but phone refused to wake.

I had this problem.
Solution: Download an app called MemMaid and use the settings in post #75:

For me it was the Disable Auto Device Lock.cab (in combination with windows exchange server) that caused the frequent HD2-doesn't-wake-up problem.
I uninstalled it and it is working fine again.
Have a look here, the exact same problem was discussed :

Aaargh. Just happened to me again. So that's twice today.Locked it with Opera open. Went to toilet. Came back and Leo wouldn't come back. Again the physical keys were lighting, but the screen stayed dark.
I'm running standard ROM that came with phone, 1.48.405.2 and then official hot fixes on top. Only using apps that came with the phone too.
Not done any tweaking besides cosmetic through the standard phone options.

guys let's try to focus here, we all have/had this issue. So let's try to remember what's the last things we dis so we can find the common cause so we can identify it.
Well I said in my post above, I read (don't remember where! ) that the problem is related to the microSD card.
Was logical for me, because I kept copying, deleting, copying tow large files large files in parallel, I mean I stressed my microSD. By the way it's the one provided by HD2 with the copilot in it.
What I've done, is that removed the microSD for a while and there were no freeing again for like 4 hours, and it was with screen off for like 1 hour and half, come back from the fitness, and it's ok.
Once back home, I backed up all my MicroSD to my computer, then formatted it with HD2. After that I copied back all my data to my micrSD. So far so good.
hint: what's the official SD Card Storage Cards hotfix from HTC for?

HD2 Touch Screen Not Responding

Hi Guys i hope somebody who knows about capacitive touch screens can help me! I have taken my HD2 apart to fix a smashed camera lense. On removing the back cover i used a small screwdriver to prise off the back case and unclip it all round. It came off with no problem, i fixed the camera and put it back together. When i turned the device back on the touch screen isn't responding to my finger on any screen. Like i turned the touch screen off! The hard buttons still wok but nothing from the screen. Nothing looks damaged (I.e the glass isn't smashed). I seem to think i might have damaged something when prising the cover off with the screwdriver. Please, any suggestions would be really helpful!!!

Can anybody out there help with this? I am currently without a phone :-(

I have exactly the same problem, but it happened from nowhere. I didnot unscrew anything. Please Help

Check the flex cable.. this part are very delicate.

same problem
ive got the same problem, mine just stopped working, i performed a soft and hard reset, removed the battery still nothing. it worked for a moment but once locked it stopped working again, only the hard buttons.

same problem but it works on and off. basically the screen will respond until the phone is put into hibernate. the after that id have to push the phone button and end button back and forth until it responds

Same Issue independant of ROM
Same issue here.
Funny thing is it started a week or two ago randomly out of the blue.
Same scenario:
lock the phone can't get touchscreen to respond for unlock
Judging by these posts everyone started seeing this about the same time, maybe it's a software issue or background app .
Help!

I have same problem. It can work for a couple of hours or in 1-2 days then just stop responding, almost every time when in hibernate. Lets just hope it's not hardware failure.

This started happening to me this morning. Out of 50 tries, managed to unlock the phone three times only. This happened out of the blue, right after i removed my phone from the charger.
Have soft reset, hard reset, reflashed ROM, but the issue still remains.
I really really hope this is not a hardware issue.
Does anyone out there know how to solve this? My phone is virtually unusable right now...

Same problem here, I've been testing for about 2,5 months now and today I've sent mine back to HTC . I think it's a hardware problem, tried everything from hard resetting to reflashing. When I press the HTC logo and keep it pressed the screen does respond again. Conclusion: hardware problem.

You're probably right.
I've also tried everything. But kind of strange that if I lock when not on home tab it seems to work. And the screen, almost always, reacts as it should as long as I just dont' lock it.

I just started to get this issue. touch screen works fine until it hibernates. reflashed, still happens. found this in my search:
htcphones.net/htc-hd2-problems-with-touchscreen/

just got off the phone with tmo. they are sending me a new one.

Yeah, it happened to me as well. I opened a new thread like a month ago explaining the problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=710282&styleid=15
and I contributed in another one concerning the same issue here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708530
Summing all up, it ain't caused by a software or a ROM of some kind (at least in my case) because soft and hard resets didn't solve it nor did the flash of a stock ROM. The most probable cause is a digitizer (touchscreen) defect that appears randomly and totally out of the blue. The only thing to do in my opinion is to send the phone in for repair, which I did. It came back with a check mark on "calibrated screen" checkbox. As of now phone's working fine and I hope they solved it even though I read of other people who have had their leo's screens completely replaced..
A curious side note: htc care reset to zero my phone's call duration timers..

I'm not sure if it's the screen. In my case I think it's the connector from the screen to the motherboard, because pressing the housing seems to help.
But let's see if HTC is able to repair it, I hope they are, because the problem is so random they might not even see it

After losing functionality on my touch screen for a week, finally decided to send it in. Took the trouble to revert my HSPL to original and Stock Rom.
Repair should take about a week. Now I'm stuck with an ancient Nokia 6230i for this week. I feel so lost without my ppc. Have had one for as long as I can remember.
Hopefully the phone comes back okay...

I've had so much problem with the screen not responding so I did all backup then reflashed, hard reset to put the device back to stock. Did this during the weekend, I even fired up my old iphone 3g to have as backup phone.
All set today to go to the store and have it repared under warranty.
But since Sunday evening it works perfect. I've been testing it a lot and the screen has not stop responding even once.
This might be just temporarily but does anyone else experienced something like this?

Mine sometimes worked well for hours... days... but eventually the problem came back.

Mine died on me when I was actually out of the country (stuck in Vietnam without a phone). It would work for 5 minutes, then stop for hours. I would have to switch my phone on and off for a couple hundred times before it worked for another 5 minutes...
Got so tired of it that i sent back my HD2 for warranty repair. Expect it to be back tomorrow (or Friday at the latest). Hope there's no further problems with it.

I hate to say it, but the HD2 is known for its highly defective touchscreen. Even when it's working, a lot of people experience strange and bothering events, such as the touchscreen "touching" itself, a very high/very low screen sensitivity all of a sudden, the tilting of the screen to one of the four corners of the device and so on and so forth.
With a device so expensive one would expect it to work flawlessly. Seems to me that HTC doesn't think the way we do...

[Q] Specific Touch response issues

About a week ago I suddenly started having some issues with the touch response on my HD2, but only when doing certain tasks. Whenever I try to shut down the phone, I press the power button and then the menu pops up giving me a few different options, but the screen is completely unresponsive to anything I touch. Also, the slide to unlock doesn't operate about half the time, so I'm constantly hitting the lock button & trying again. I haven't had any issues with touch while doing any other tasks. I've also tried several different ROMs, including going back to the stock ROM. I've read about several devices with bad digitizers, but this seems to be more specific than that. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

My brother's phone had the exact same issue. We both got our HD2's on the same day in May as part of the Buy One Get One Free deal. Since then, he has had numerous freezing issues with his phone. My phone on the other hand, seldomly suffered from those issues. A week or so ago he told me that he couldn't unlock his phone sometimes, and that he had to keep cycling the screen on and off to finally make the screen respond to touch input. So, after playing with it for a few minutes I noticed the screen became completely unresponsive when attempting to power off the phone. After messing with it for a while, the screen would not respond on any screen at all. So, I called T-Mobile today, and within 5 minutes they offered to send out a Warranty Replacement. Absolutely no hassle at all.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I should give that a try.

what's up ???
is it general problem ???????
my device will arrive next week so will it have the same problem
so depressed ... it is very nice device to have but a screen problem make it realy bad .....

[Q] Touchscreen Problem

Alright, so here's my problem. My touchscreen won't response to any finger movement. I could press the hardware buttons like power, volume and talk and it response to that but my problem is mainly trying to get inside my rom. I tried flashing rom via NAND and via clockwork mod and nothing helps. The G Sensor seems to work just fine because it rotates the screen when I'm inside my ROM. I could go back into MAGLDR but I don't think anything there is going to help?
Has anyone else experience anything like this and if so, what did you do to solve it?

had same problem, found a FIX
i have had same problem past couple of days. i was running darkstones SuperRAM_FroYo_V1.5 build with oz 2 cleanex rom. i know that every now and again it would be a pain to unlock the device with the agonising wait for the lock screen to show up but this time the touch screen would not work at all not recognising any movement and not dragging the unlock button across. i would have to take the battery out and restart, even some times touch screen would fail completely when in winmo too, got to a point when 3 days of working then not working and taking the battery out a million times to boot back into android to unlock the device, then touch screen died completely.
FIX- Hard reset
will reset windows mobile. all data on device will be lost.
hold down up-vol key and down-vol key, soft reset button and then power button till it displays formatting screen. follow on screen instructions.
hope this helps.

Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

I have this problem and have found no way to fix it, I have tried everything except possibly going to the clk loader instead of magldr. when i put the phone to sleep with the power button is when i have the issue of not being able to unlock my phone in Android. I have tried task 29, going back to original windows roms, sd and nandroid, it is a hardware issue related to the digitizer as far as I'm concerned. I love my HD2 and really need to fix or find another one. I know this doesn't help, but maybe a little more insite if nothing else

I had the same issue. With my 1st HD2 it started as an intermittent problem, then eventually completely stopped working. With my replacement it just started to happen again. I immediately flashed back to stock tmo windows and the touchscreen would work so long as I did not try and put the phone on standby or wake the phone using the end key. If the phone went to standby on its own, the touchscreen would not work either. I changed the settings so that the phone would not go into standby at all. I then learned that locking the phone from the windows menu and allowing it to go to standby that way somehow averted the touchscreen problem. After 2 days, the problem seemed to resolve itself, almost completely. If I try and wake it using the end key, the touchscreen still wont work, but every other button on wake works. Also, putting it in standby with the end key seemed to not cause the problem any longer.
I dont know if the issue varies per person, but what worked for me was going to stock windows for a couple of days, then starting over with android. I guess it depends on how far along the problem has progressed.

Look at my thread in my Sig about the Unresponsive Screen Solved. This sounds exactly as that. And there are various workaround solutions through out the post.

[Q] Touch screen not working on HD2 using Ultimate Droid 3.2.5

I have been using Ultimate Droid 3.2.5 for a couple of months now and a few days ago i pick up my phone to make a call and the screen doesn't respond when I touch the screen. Only the bottom buttons and volume buttons work. At first, if i I play with the buttons at the bottom i can usually get the touch screen to repond. I tried to wipe data/dactory reset and reinstall rom but now I cant even get it to work like before. Only thing I can do now is answer calls and call back the last person that called me. Has anyone else had this problem?PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks!

Did you eventually find out what cause this issues?
I think my phone is behaving similar, I'm using different Android ROMS for quite a while now, and suddenly without any apparent reason the touchscreen isn't responding very often after waking up the screen. It won't happen if the screen is on and the touch screen is working, only after a wakeup..
Sometimes it's just impossible to get it working again, and I'm forced to wait a while until it decides to respond again. It kinda feels like the phone is forgetting to wake or initialize the touchscreen properly.
ROM and Kernel changes didn't solve this so far.
I think the issues originally started with Typhoons CM7 NIGHTLY 3.7.1 / tytung 12.4v3 for me.

Actually I never found out what the problem was. I just flashed it back to stock and had T-Mobile send me another one. That was in May and actually a few days ago it happened to my phone again. So this time they sent me an HD7. It really sicks that they dont have that phone anymore. Cant do sh*t with this HD7!

Same here the Power Button is the problem, you just have to train yourself not to use it. I use Button Savior and Button Remapper. On my second HD2, luckily T-Mobile sent me a HD2, but that was in like March, right before my one year was up.

Make sure you keep this one working cuz there will be no more HD2! I may find one on Craigslist or something. This HD7 and Windows 7.5 really sucks monkey nuts!!!

Yea I played around with WP7 on the HD2 when it first became avaliable and wasn't really worth the time and trouble it took to get it on there. One month later I went back to NAND and haven't looked back.

Same here! Registering Zune was a problem at first.

Thanks for your quick response! Yeah, seems to be a problem with the end button / flex connector of digitizer
I found another helpful thread about this issue: The Infamous Unresponsive Digitizier Screen Possibly Solved!
Obviously you need to replace the digitizer to fix this problem.
I'm sticking to the solution of not touching the button at all, there are apps to turn off the screen and shutdown the phone. At least waking with any other buttons works most of the time for now, but it's not really a long-term solution.

Wish I would have saw that thread b4 i sent my phone back!!!
