So my HD2 touchscreen stopped working last week. I received my replacement HD2 2 days ago.
Flashed HSPL
Flashed Magldr 1.13
Flashed DFT WPH
I noticed the phone was warm after flashing magldr ( Luke Warm)
Day 1 - Running Windows Phone 7 Installing apps setting up E-Mail (Warm)
Day 2 - PAID for games, the second day I was using the phone, decided to play Fruit Ninja for about 5 minutes. ( HOT)
People are experiencing the same thing in the Android Forum also.
Once again I am not saying this is Magldr, This issue should be addressed and not written off to the second page.
As a community on XDA - I ask everyone with access to Live Services or your means of installing games apps. Install Fruit Ninja and other games, play the game for 5 minutes or so, report back your outcome.
This is a serious issue and must be addressed.
I first thought it was because of the 2.15 radio, so I downgraded to 2.12 but still having this issues, even when I'm on airplane mode it gets very hot while playing games.
Windows Mobile 6.5
As much as I hate to say it. I'll probably just go get the HD7 or Dell Venue Pro.
In the meantime, I'll use my Galaxy Tab for the games.
My HD2 gets very warm only after 40+ min of gaming or 40+ min of heavy IE usage, which it did under WM6.5 with stock ROM also. When I gets warm I just let it cool down on the homescreen for 5 min and go on. I suggest you try a different memory card.
European Leo, Radio 2.12.50, Magldr 1.12, WP7
I had same issues with Android (10 custom roms), WP7 (DFT and Moonlight). Now I am on XBmod ROM and averything is working perfect. Now, my device is not HOT anymore, just warm when playing games, 720p video or browsing the internet. Radio is 2.15.50, MAGLDR 1.13, T-Mobile HD2
Memory Card
This issue has absolutely nothing to do with the memory card, I have at least 5 different classes and brands. The information given to you is inaccurate.

Im using darkstone's android version on my htc hd2 tmobile 1024mb with 2.12 radio, hspl 3, newest chucky rom gtx lite and every once in a while my phone would freeze up for about 10 secs then resume functioning. This is very annoying and frustrating so i was wondering what can i do to fix this?
mine does it too with a completly different rom..
i think it is because when the screen is off it goes into a "sleep" mode where the cpu gets throttled back to save battery..
when you push the button it takes a few seconds for the cpu to load everything up and resume the phone..
its probably because your loading everything off the sd card and its alot slower then the inernal memory.

this is a known issue on all builds thus far.
try disabling autorotation in display settings. this fixes it for some but not for others (me)

Some people say problem is less when they calibrate g-sensor in winmo before started android
I've had this issue on every build as well. Usually for me it gets worse progressively to the point I have to un-install or add a different build. Thankfully when it happens there's a build that is released that I haven't tried.
mines done the same on all builds tested and I am constantly changing it, but downloading 160MB every 3-4 days is getting a little old... I'm going to look into a faster micro SD card..
I had freezing issues like everyone else but mine was when i restarted the phone at once it loads up it would freeze at the first sync. Other times would be during any game play or any cpu intensive app. i found it to be a combo of things. i realize that the sync freeze was due to the hd2 trying to grab all my 120 emails for the gmail app. so i went and deleted al my emails and it hasn't freeze since. i also disable full weather animation, turn off all unneeded sync like stocks, news, and disable any sense widgets that i did not need, also turn service provider to manual and not auto. My phone hasn't freeze once in 5 days ( fingers crossed) versus 3 or 4 per day before i did this. hope it helps someone

I traded my g1 for an hd2. Gave it to my wife and she loves it. Only problem is the SOD. Until a solid kernel fix is made she figured this out and no SOD so far. She uses Aldiko a lot and you can adjust the contrast with a swipe down the left side of the screen. She turns it all the way down and its completely black. Swipe up the left side and screen is back on. Cheap fix I know but works for now till the real bug could be ironed out.
the only time i had an sod is when i tried 2.11 radio..
what radio you using?
I am using the tmobile radio 2.10.50. Or something like that.
if its related to radio, I have 2.08 and never had one sod
What rom are you using? Also which winmo rom? I know its not a radio problem.
So, could it be, that radio 2.11 and higher kill the screen?
Do you recommend to use only radio 2.08?
I am from germany and a week ago my touchscreen was defect and had to be changed for a new one. Could this happen because of the wrong radio?
SODs have nothing to do with the radio. it has to do with the SD card. i can confirm this by taking my sd card and putting it in 2 different hd2s with 2 different radios and i had no SOD what so ever but when i would use a different sdcard i would get SODs on both
I've heard that higher class SD cards have better results. But sods are typically causes by the g sensor bottle necking when the phone goes to sleep. Aldiko prevents phone sleep but you can shut the screen off by turning the contrast down all the way with it. Swipe down off. Swipe up on. Like I said cheap fix but works for the time being.
I use a class 2 sd card that came with the phone. the only form of SOD i experience is the screen powering on but it remaining black which is only temp, as a few turns on attempts anbd its fine. which i realy wouldnt consider screen of death since it never sticks like that permantly to requiire a reboot.
That's lucky for you its a common bug at the moment. I have to baby my wife's hd2. I'm a bit jealous. Lol

thats not true. i use the stock 16gb class 2 sd that came with the phone (TMOUS) HD2 and i have no SODs at all. I experienced SODs with a PNY 8gb Class 4 so higher class doesnt mean less SODs. it has to do with how the sd is formatted and if the sd has errors on it.
That's what I'm using the 16 gig that it came with. I'm just saying what I've read. Now that you said that I know I can save money and not have to but a expensive SD card lol.
Viewing the answers it seems to me that nobody really knows what is causing the SODs... someone said that could be the SD CARD, others that is on the ROM side, others Radio, others GSENSORS... in my opinion have to do with the early stage of Android development in HD2, maybe Cotulla will be able to release a new Kernel which fix the SODs and Freezes problems...
Use chuckydroidrom with radio 2.12.50
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
The Radio is the problem
ok Ive done this for 3 phones and I can tell u that SOD has only to do with the Radio. The only thing ive seen that the rom affects its the robot voice.
get this Radio Leo_RADIO_2.12.50.02_2
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9GU2FF3X
And Im a 100 percent sure is gonna work and if u want get the chunkydroid just in case.
Also the 3 phones which ive put Android had been from tmobile USA.
Using chuckydroidrom, supherhd2 1.2, class 4 sd card -- I don't get SOD other than sometimes waking from sleep. Either it's the blank screen which just takes a few tries, or it shows up but is unresponsive, then the wifi reads "error."
Unfortunately that happens a few times a day.
[edit]
Also using radio 2.12.50.02
Great Success!!!
Guys,
I have had great success running Miri's rom / 2.11 radio / turned windows mobile sense off / running Nexus One build FRG33 9-8-10
I have had now screen of death, no audio issues, no bluetooth issues, camera & camcording work in 5mp, wifi working, wifi portable hotspot is working (I desperately need this because of my job), no freezing, all apps working, my NES/SNES emulator works like a charm, no freezing issues, Quandrant speeds range from 1550-1650 (low speeds when snes emulator running in background).
My only issue is that, when in sleep mode, the orange light stays on constantly, but even with this, I have had battery life of 36+ hours. This setup is ready for daily use.
If anyone can help me get that orange light out, I would be much obliged.
you would think after all the great development going on here, this issue (the biggest issue it seems) would have been the first to be sorted out. I for one am pulling my hair out over it. i get it constantly on all the builds I try except for darkstones which kills my battery in 2 hours. running stock rom, 2.08 radio, stock 16 gig sd card
i have tried radio 2.10.50.26 and 2.12.50.02.2
all have SOD. all rebooted when i tried to log in at the market place
i have tried nearly all the roms
it seems like only mattc is the most stable..
but he hasn't have any updates for the last 10 days.
thanks
jack

Cant agree with you on that. I have also tried different roms, and stayed on Darkstone 2.1 from 18.8.10. I use 2.12.50.02.2, Elegancia v10, Class 2 16gb card which is almost full and I have only 2 issues:
1. SOD after you try to wake the phone up and immediately put it to sleep (Power button, and a second after again). It takes about 20 seconds until it starts working again. My suspicion, gsensor/sdcard, nothing to do with radio.
2. Bluetooth, A2DP controls do not work on my Bluetooth headset.
So, for me, this is the most stable.
BTW, I can run a battery for around 24 hours with gmail push, exchange push (through Touchdown, not native Android program) and average usage of calls, SMS, Wifi, Youtube and Market..
First off I'd like to say hello to everyone! The name is "Bird" and i have a couple questions.. I recently stop using my iPhone 2G unlocked/jailbroken and started using a HTC HD2. I am into Apps, Music, Movies, Games, Themes, etc, anything to make a phone more fun and have more options then what it came with OTB. I did some reading on the site last night about running Android on the HD2 and installed Americandroid SD. My first question is: What is the advantages to running NAND oppose to SD? .. Also, Running americandroid i have noticed i cannot recieve Picture Messeges (unless I reboot and run Windows first, the messege is recieved and open) but once I run android I cannot view the pic in a messege again. Any fix for this or am I doing something wrong? .. Also running Android I cannot open Angry Birds game because it prompts me to Force Close. Once again, any fixes for this or is it user error? .. Last, I noticed a signal drop and then it picks back up again, but I also havent really noticed too much interruption while the signal drops. When the signal dropped I quickly sent my girlfriend a text to see if she would get it, she DID.. Any help would be greatly appreciated and Thank You in advance! ... also these are my version..
ROM ver: 3.14.531.1
Radio: 2.15.50.14
Baseband: 15.42.50.11U
nand over sd - no need to boot winmo first for nand android, it starts straigth into android. (angry birds works on nand roms, see below)
some apps, angry birds included, simply wont run from the sd card (when using nand roms) so perhaps the same applies to SD card roms?
I see teh signal drop too, i believe it to be the phone switching between high speed and low speed networks, since it usually (at least for me) drops from one or two bars, and then comes back as 4 or 5 bars, and vice versa. Try settings - mobile networks - use 2g networks only (just as a test), , see if you get the same signal drop.
Before I get flamed I have read all the comments I can find on WP7 Rom battery tricks i.e. camera record after reboot trick, leaving 3g on etc. All Im asking is if other HD2 users are experiencing as little as 6-7 hours of battery life on WP7 roms, iv'e tried xbmod, HD20 and YukiXDA and have tried this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978101.
Phone is hardly used, no phone calls just settings and odd text message and only wifi on when using phone.
I'm gutted because I love WP7, any advice appreciated and am not trying to "Noob" up the forums I just wanted to start a dialogue with other WP7 Rom users.
Thx
Nope, that´s not normal.
There are several possible reasons for your problem. MAGLDR, Radio ROM and SPL versions are crucial. Bad flashing can happen all the time. Plus, an "incompatible" SD card can bring a hell lot of issues, too, as well as an "old" SIM card.
Anyway - I can say that under WP7, I could not reach the same battery lifetime like under WinMo 6.5 - you can more compare to Android (NAND versions). Maximum 2 days at really low usage (week-ends), 1 day with "normal" workload. I could easily double that time under WinMo 6.5.
The HD2 likes battery like i like beer.....as much as possible in the shortest amount of time.
My phone and wifes phone (exact same phone + ROM) work for about 7 hours. ive tried many different tricks, radios, ROMs and no luck. luckily at home and work i have access to charging points, so not so much of a problem. just anooying when we go travelling!
Try latest YukiXDA Rom with 3G on. My phone lasted a day and night ( few calls, texts, games (including installing) Facebook etc. Much improved.
i'm using yuki's latest and mines dead in about 7 hours also (without even using it cos i have a company phone) but some have reported 2 days , i've got the battery tool and my current is usually around -250 sometimes higher before and after camera trick but some have reported 2ma ,, i'm sure i'm using the bat tool wrong lol . gigahurtz whats your current

Every time i boot android it freezes either with the GO GO GO! or at the start of android, every time i start gps, or turn on internet. Also when i play games or anything like that it freezes and does nothing else more. Sometimes when i play music and it freezes also the music does so it loops a buzzing sound. I have tried many different versions of NAND ROMS. All ended up freezing. It feels like i am the only one having such problems , because i have searched many threads and none have the same problem as me. So what should i do?
Which ROM?
MAGLDR Version?
CMW Version?
TMOUS/EU?
Radio ROM Version?
GRJ22 NexusHD2-GINGERBREAD v2.7NAND
MAGLDR 1.13
CMW 3.0.2.5
15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14
can you descripe how you flashed the roms? maybe you did something wrong - each time.
maybe try to use some toolkit like mine or the other one to do a guided install.
Run task29 on your phone, then reinstall MAGLDR, followed by the correct partition layout., then zip package. Boot your phone WITHOUT the sdcardin it and test what you can (obviously music wont work without the sdcard.)
If everything works, you probably need to format your sdcard to remove any lingering configuration files thats its loading (dont forget to backup anything important you want to save of your sdcard.
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Premium App
do a task 29, reinstall magldr, go to clockworkmod, wipe data/chache/dalvik cache, then reinstall the rom
Well i have tried everything. Did the task29 about 10 times and reinstalled maglrd 5 times. I get stuck on the CWM. I download the right partition layout (as the rom requires) and whenever i try to boot from NAND i get nand kernel open failed. I also try the AD recovery under #8 i get stuck on the ''GO GO GO''. I have tried this for 5 hours and still no luck. I'm giving up and flashing a stock W6.5 rom. Thanks for trying
Sounds like you didn't flash the cwr right
Try the guide from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=945427
Okay so i decided to do this from scratch. Stock downgrading the rom then from the beginning. I'll post if it will be successful.
I had the same problem...
It was the sd card. It was corrupted and I was told to use the Panasonic formatting tool(after removing pictures and music and t backup and sms backup)
So I hspl 2.08 mag 113 loaded zip and away I went
The formatter even brought back to life 2 sd cards that windows couldn't format.
Hope this helps. It worked for me.
I have the same problem with an HD2 TMOUS.
The freezing problem happens when performing certain tasks, like gps navigation, 3g/edge navigation or video filming.
I did again the flashing process from scratch, task29, magldr, cwr, and finally the rom, for a moment it was ok but then the problem started again.
I installed Sygic instead of Ndrive on this device and the freezing problem using gps go away. But when I turned off wifi and when the data connection over 3g/edge started the phone freezed again.
Going to check the sd card but I think this could probably be something with the cpu load.
PS: Sry for my english
The Final Thing.. HTC HD2 Hardware crap..!! Overheating issue
My Dears
This problem has nothing to do with the Rom /versions of Rom / winmo or android roms / the way u flash / or there is nothing wrong with the applications u installed / Processes Running in background
I experienced the same misery & also have seen many forums, where friends having this issue, usually they attribute it to software issues with roms/ applications, but unfortunately its not like that!!
Indeed its hardware issue because of faulty Motherboard your Leo has inside.
Your phone crashes because of overheating CPU and fails to reboot until unless you wait to let it cool down for 4-5 minutes or more by taking battery out
HTC HD2 Freezes, fail to soft reset, even stuck on rebooting when its processor got heat up up to 37 - 38 C, its fairly common to get up to this temp wen u use wifi, data connection, sd card, hold your set in hand or there is summer when usual temperature outside is 35 - 40 or more
Basically its design fault, When you use your hd2 for some time, its 1ghz processor produce a lot of heat, but no way for it to dissipate, 2nd all the imp things like antenna, sd card port, sim card port, charging port are concentrated on lower aspect of set causing excess heat generation but its metallic casing fail to dissipate, and eventually your processor fails to work at all
I have tested it personally, i used battclock on winmo & also widget telling temp on android, hd2 works fairly wen its core temperature remains <35 C, once it goes upto 37 - 38C its starts freezing and then even fails to reebot untill unless let it be cool down.
No other solution except to send your set to htc warranty or repair center & get your motherboard replaced
Not all the handsets of htc hd2 have this problem, many works well, but if you are unlucky to have the weird one, get its motherboard replace
& all the things will be fine
i have a bad words for HTC, Poor job!!
