Hi
This may sound like a weird request, but I want to brick my hd2. Currently it has Magldr 1.13 on it, but it wont go into the bootloader (tri color screen) no matter what. I have tried all the button variations (vlume down+power etc etc) but to no avail. So I want to know a way that I can brick my phone WITHIN magldr so it wont even turn on. That way, I can send it into tmobile for a replacement. Please help me without bashing, flaming, etc. Thanks!
Where you holding down the volume button while pressing the power button?

yes, I appreciate it, but Ive developed a few roms for the hd2 myself, it just wont go into bootloader mode ever since installing magldr 1.13....
Flash one of your roms, then.

Put your phone in the microwave
please....something that will keep my warranty
so if u have MAGLDR installed on your phone can u access USB Flasher ?
If yes you can install CWR or if u have allready can u install any ZIP ROMs ?

This happened to me and it was driving me crazy. You have a corrupted bootloader you need to keep trying to take the battery and hold volume down with power until you get the bootloader(i did it like 100 times at least)then you flash any windows rom(kumars did it for me) this will fix you bootloader. Also make sure the battery teeth are even.
i would of thought it was near impossible to brick a HD2,Your more likely to brick a normal android phone than this but just an idea,how about flashing an actual Desire HD rom(not port) itle have the wrong drivers so in theory it should bugger it up

what about task29
Connect your phone to your computer via usb flash drive, then run the custom ruu for a T-Mobile version winnow rom only, then flash the wrong radiio.
Edit: did not realize you need to be in boot loader to flash radio, forgot.
Flash a Leo512 only winmo rom. Or even leo512 only android rom if you can find one.

The microwave thing (2 seconds) is the best way, I think. But then again, it might mess up warranty... Otherwise, I'd open the phone, but that'd void warranty also.

hello...could anybody help me please...i was updating my htc magic to [ROM][32b] Official AOSP 2.2 OTA...but after i copied the update to sd,and i rebooted at the recovery menu i couldn't scroll to select the update.zip..it takes very long n i decided to pull out the battery n restart it again..unfortunately it went wrong somewhere n the phne keep on restarting again and again...i've tried to hard reset and all...but it won't works...help pleasee...
no replies yet...that's very sad..
If you can get to the recovery screen try wiping and factory reset.and flash a different rom. If that doesn't work. You can always do the unroot method by using the smping.mbh file or something like that. Look up how to unroot in google and you should know what I mean. Hope this helps

Well then you need to unroot your mytouch it basically puts it back in factory settings and you do it through fast boot. I'm guessing you have the original mytouch this how I did it

You don't need to get in recovery screen. Turn the phone off and hold the up volume button and the power button and fast boot the sapping.nbh file
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
What I did is:
Through fastboot I flashed SAPPIMG.nbh. It put my phone to the cupcake (1.5). Then I installed rooted HTC 1.6 update. After that I flashed any Rom I wanted.

So you can't put it back to stock? If you manage to get it back to stock by doing the same thing you did beforev you should try using a different recovery. aman-ra's recovery is the best for me. But I can't see how you can't get into the fastboot screen by pressing power and volume up,that's never failed for me. If its really impossible you should have tmobile replace it. I don't think they can tell you hacked it if they can't even get into fastboot.sorry if I took long to answer

Hello i'm having difficulties in upgrading to MAGLDR1.12 form MAGLDR1.11 because i can't sync my device in gingerbread.
Is there any other way doing that ?
You have to enter the bootloader mode to upgrade magldr. Restart your hd2, and hold down vol down while booting. You will se the hspl tri colour bootloader screen. Now your windows can connect and upgrade magldr. Just like you flashed it initially...

i cant find the thread anymore, but im sure magldr 1.12 is only for WP7. u can use it with android but there is nothing added for android. wait for 1.13
How do I get the phone to create an active sync with my computer if I already have MAGLDR 1.11 installed? I boot the phone into the bootloader with the multicolor screen, but windows mobile device center does not see it.

Bootloader is a way and in my opinion a better and faster way to flash things like roms,splash screens,magldr,radios,Task29. there is no need to sync anything just click the CustomRUU or RomUpdateUtility and flash away.

Try doing a factory reset on the phone. Get into the bootloader by holding the volume down button and then holding down the power button simultaneously. Use the volume up/down button to highlight factory reset, then to select press the power button
I did it and 3 android dudes with skate boards are on the screen for like 3 hours no exactution
Which version of the stock rom are you using. Is it 2.2.1 or 2.3.4 ?
If you can't get the factory reset, I will give the stock rom . Do update using hboot.

Given you are on the .85 or .86 hBoot.
Download THIS FILE . leave it zipped up, and store it on the root of your SDcard.
power down the phone, pull the battery if needed. Then power on the phone holding down the power button and the volume down rocker. Once it boot select "bootloader". It will scan the SdCard for the file then prompt you to update the file.
But when I start up the phone and enter the prompte screen it scans the SD card automatically is that suppose to happen?

flash through recovery go into the bootloader (bootloader=phone off volume down hold power) use the volume rockers and go to recovery and boot into CLOCKWORKMOD recovery which is what you said you have then do a full wipe and install rom normally. if you cant do this then no offense but you really shouldnt be messing with your phone... if all else fails download the stock rom and flash through the bootloader
wen u say install rom normally..wat do u mean?? i did carry out a full wipe..n rebooted my phone..but froze there!!

download the ROMNAME.zip put it on your sdcard where you can find it then go into clockworkmod recovery and go to install zip from sdcard choose zip from sdcard navigate to where you saved your ROMNAME.zip select it and it will install use virtuous sense and stick with that cause if anything happens you seem new and i dont think you will know how to fix it...
and wiping isn't gonna magically fix the fact that your operating system is f'd up but you should wipe before flashing a new rom cause it will screw up the new rom flashed

The clockworkmod method doesn't always work.
Mine right now is doing this same problem and when I go into recovery Clockworkmod only gives me the red triangle of death. And yes, all my recoveries are flashed with the correct versions. (I know what I'm doing)
Sometimes there's just a series of things that all goes wrong in the perfect order.
Trying to return phone to stock and CANNOT enter the bootloader for it to recognize my stock image on the sd card because the darn power button is broken/stuck.
I try adb reboot bootloader and that sends me into FASTBOOT, NOT bootloader
any other way to get to bootloader (without use of the power button) or flash back the stock rom?
Thanks!
There is an app on market called quick boot that you could try. Hope it doesn't boot into fastboot too. Otherwise just try to flash an unrooted stock rom, that might work for what you need.

I use an app called Widgetsoid, which includes the ability to make a widget that can reboot your phone, Can be set up so that you choose how to reboot (Recovery, Power off, etc).
Requires SU access to reboot with the widget, and please be aware that when I had a couple different roms, the widget simply failed to reboot at all -- for example it works fine when I'm running Darkside Sense 4.0, failed to work at all on meXdroidMod Ghost Chili's rom.
Hope this might help ya out
I found an app called button remapper thanks to I forgot who.
It will remap power,but...
It will not work to turn the phone on,and once you use it to get to recovery,you will need the power button to scroll through,so you'd still be in trouble if its completely broke.
Pm me and I could send you the file when I'm on the computer tonight.
If you want to try.
Or search for button remapper on xda.I don't think its in the market.

How about if you go to install zip from sdcard,or wipe/reset,did I miss something where you can use the trackpad to go back,when there is no go back option?or like I was saying,you would need to hit that trusty power button to ho back.
I don't know,I might have missed it after flashing about 500times.
But pretty sure I use the power button all the time to go back after wiping data,then cache,power to ho back,wipe dalvik,power to go back,install zip from sdcard,power to go back,then reboot system.

Getting a bit sidetracked here, I am trying to revert to stock ROM and cannot because the Power button is broken on this piece of crap and I cannot get to bootloader.
• adb reboot bootloader and that sends me into FASTBOOT, NOT bootloader and does not load image
• no option in Settings > Power or Settings > Applications to disable fastboot (I have gingerbread)
• using CWM recovered > Install zip from file does not work
Can anyone advise a way to revert to stock image without HBOOT, that actually works and does not require the power button?
P.S. this whole thing has really made be disenchanted with the mess that is android right now. Since it seems that it really android is not open or owned by google. Instead owned by the carriers. I should not feel like a criminal for wanting a basic android phone. Makes me almost want to scrap and get an iPhone.
Firstly, its not the Android OS that's the problem. Its your broken ass phone so calm down. If your thinking Android is not open, go ahead and get an iPhone and you'll see what a not open OS is really like.
Secondly...
I read you have Clockwork recovery installed. Flashing this image through Clockwork will at least make it look stock. It is said you will lose root but probably keep S-ON.

Why are you trying to revert to stock if you don't mind me asking? Are u sending it to HTC for them to fix it? They wont care if your rooted they will just wipe your phone and put in the mysense gingerbread rom. I highly advise u to contact HTC and check your warranty. I sent in NY CM7 mt4g and they fixed the power button for free.

Thanks, frustrated is all. Taking it out on Android OS, but really peeved at GOOG
- for having caved into the carriers by letting them bastardize the OS with their mods, forcing me to feel like criminal in modding and jumping through hoops to get a vastly better experience
- for not outbidding verizion on that wireless spectrum and becoming a carrier themselves
Was original N1 owner (first week) and will prob sqitch to galaxy nexus (as soon as they get on more carriers)
Thanks on the suggestions, tried to reflash through CWM several times and keeps giving me installation aborted.. will download again (in case is corrupted) and try again; Interesting other suggestion, will take a look at, but not much time, have to send back replacement tomor
Thx again
You can also try this. It is a nandroid restore somebody made. It seems a bit more involved because it looks like you need to use an older version of clockwork recovery. If I am correct you can find an older version of the recovery and flash it through rom manager, but dont quote me on that one.

When I had a MT4G and the EMMC chip died I hooked the phone to a 12 volt battery and fried it. I then called and told them I plugged the phone in to charge one night and the next morning it would not power on. They replaced it no questions asked and I never heard anything about it again.
My mom's power button went out as well. Tmo and HTC flat out refused a replacement MT4G, Saying it was a "known issue". I called them about 10 times total about this problem. They just want to sell me another phone. Full price. Since i've called them so many times they wont even do a Insurance claim.
If this is a "known problem" why the f isn't it being taken care of properly?
Has anyone else had this problem with customer service?
