Try a different rom. If it still persists in another android rom, then try winmo. If it still persists in winmo, then it's your button that's the problem.
It can't be the button due to the fact I can use the the key to power on the phone and it works with every press. I can't enter the magldr menu since the end call key doesn't register so when I hold it when powering on it still boots straight into android.

Then just change to a different Rom.

You can use power button but not end call button? Do you know that power button and end call button is just the same button?

Then try getting in a different build. Do a long press on power button during power on.

it seems as if as soon as the phone powers on the power button does not respond because if i do a long press on the power button it still boots straight to android and doesnt bring up the magldr menu
so ive tried 2 nand builds and a nandram build as well as a windows mobile 6.5 rom and still the problem persists. but how can the actual hardware of the key be broken if the button can be used to turn the phone on? tried doing hard reset and that didnt do anything. is there anyway to do a 100% clean wipe of the phone that will completely remove magldr and CWM from the phone?
It's called a task 29. task 29 wipes the phone completely.
I still think it's the hardware though.
did the task 29 still doesnt work. but how can the hardware be the issue of the button still works to power on the phone? has anyone else ran across this problem.
thanks or all informations

Ok, really noob.
I turn the phone off every night but sometimes I forget if I turned it off or not.
As far as I know, we can only click the power button to light the screen but if the phone is already shutdown it will turn on again.
Is there any other key to touch the phone so we'll able to see if it's on?
Hold town power and vol down. If it is on it will.go to.the lock screen and if it is off hboot will appear, wait for the green text to go and then use vol keys to navigate to fastboot and press power to select and then navigate to power down and press power

Does anyone else encounter any issue unlocking their phone? Have to click the lock/unlock button before the unlock screen respond.
I tried to flash different roms but still getting the same problem.
Hope someone can help. Thanks!

Try unlocking with any button other than the end call button.
Cyanogen rom have an option for volume button press to unlock
I tried using other buttons and sometimes it works sometimes it won't. Its like the touch screen function does not work. Would anyone know if i need to tweek something to solve the problem?
By the way thanks for the previous replies.

I don't have any issue with the power menu. Only with the unlocking. I tried the suggestion of kompeak but even with cm rom I'm still getting the same issue and the volume option doesnt work for me.

I don't know whether this is ROM dependent or if something just suddenly eff up on my end. Been using tytung's GB V3 NAND for quite some time now, and now im having the problem that the end key doesnt put the phone to sleep. Not only that, but it can't even end-call as well. Though if I hold it down long enough and release it, im presented with a phone options with the choices of silent mode, airplane mode, reboot, and power off." Anyone know whether I have to remap my keys, do a factory reset, or use a different ROM? TIA!
Your in the same boat as me, the Power button wears out, I have trained myself to not use it, I use a combo of Button Savior and Button Remapper.

Is there any option to change unlock screen from power button to any other button.I feel by continuous use of power button may damage.Please help?
In cyanogen can wake up with volume keys
CM7 based Roms allow you to set your volume keys to wake your phone. But you'll still have to press the power button if you want to put it back to sleep.
Not sure about other Roms.

Actually you can download "Screen off and lock" app from market and lock the phone using your screen/long press search button...
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
WidgetLocker (Lockscreen replacement, get it via the market) also supports waking up your device via volume buttons.
A lot of other costum ROM's provide flashable zip's to wake the device up via volume buttons like ARHD. (As someone said, CM7 has this feature integrated)

Thanks for the reply quickly bros and one thing always using power button will damage or no problem for using.
No, it shouldn't, it's made to be extensively used, as long as you treat it with some care, you shouldn't be afraid...
I know we still need to press the power button But is it possible to have a soft button for power down/ reb00t instead of pressing the Physical button for a few seconds?
it could help to prolong the Power Key which is might also be the problem for those non responsive screens :silly:
Terminal Emulator.
type "su", then "reboot" for reboot. Want a shutdown? Reboot, but take the battery out after it reboots.

On WM6.5.x I have used utask almost since I got the device brand new & used the extra soft button for power off & shutdown thus hardly ever used endkey button & power up from standby was normally windows key for me as that was best key for my handling of device.
Also my device has had light use & physically gentle use too but still the display issue has occurred.
Having spoken to our device supplier (we have over 20 HD2's) his opinion is even without use the ribbon cable to digi bonding breaks down as he seen same issue on never used old stock after a few days or a months use ...
Hardware quality of the HD2 is a long way from what HTC use to be ...
Poor digi, Mainboard BGA soldering/thermal control & speaker issues are way too common ...
there exists a touch-based solution for android also...i forget the exact name but it was widely distributed with gingerbread android builds in the time period when devs had not yet figured out the hd2 key mapping to bring up the power menu more than once with the end call key.

Download Quickboot (reboot) app from play store and put it on your home screen. It brings up a power menu for re-boot, power off, recovery etc.
Also try screen lock and off app. It turns off the screen. To turn the screen back on, use any of the hard buttons.
I use both these to save using the hard buttons.
^ hey it actually works, tnx :good:
