hi there all,
a friend of mine is having a problem with his phone. I tried to explain him how to install an android base sistem, he did, but he had a lot of frezes etc.
I put him to make a task29 and after that to install all from the scratch. First was the last radio version which stoped at 96% and stayed there for a long time. He did a reset by pulling the battery off and now the phone is not starting up at all. when you put the battery in it, after a few seconds is starting to vibrate continuously without stoping and it keep it like this maybe untill the battery will be fully drained.
he cannot enter in bootloader, it is not recognised when is pluged in the usb ... practicaly you cannot do anything ... or maybe there is a way and I don't know it.
so please give us some hints. thank you !
If you have flashed a .51 radio and you have a TMoUS HD2 well then the phone is smoke. The only way to fix it is by JTAG and that's a fairly complexed way.
we are talking about europe version not tmous and the radio version was 2.15.50.14 which is correct !
If you dont even get into the boot loader this phone is really f***ed up..
But are you talking about the tri color screen?
i have hd2 since it appeared and I flashed mine for more than 100 times and also my friends come to me to tweak their hd2's, but it seems that my friend did something wrong.
when I taln about bootloader I mean the tricolor screen.
the problem is that the phone screen is black and he cannot do anything, only that anoing continuous vibration !

OK, I think the only thing you could do know is go to your provider and pray for a replacement. Dunno if the change your phone if it is bricked.
Could try saying .. the phone locked up .. I took the battery out ..
and now this is happing .. Give it a try what can they say ?

Would do exactly this. I don't think they're going to strip down the whole phone into pieces just to see why it isn't working. It's an older model so I think they will be fair and give you a new one.
Yup go back to a store or call HTC.
Romania is part of the EU now so the 2 year warranty should be granted.
Check that the battery pins haven't been bent out of place. They can bend very easily and if the pins are not properly aligned the phone can constantly reboot, which may explain the constant vibrations.

He can also just call and say that the phone won't turn on he was charging it over night. And when he woke up to use it, The phone wouldn't turn on he tried the battery in a friend's hd2. It turned his on and you tried your battery in his but didn't work... they will send you a replacement for free Thats what i did 2 months ago when i cracked my screen. And before sending it in i flashed a .51 radio on purpose so it wouldn't turn on. I know it might be a bogus thing to do but i didnt have $130 at the time.

Hold camera button, and turn the phone on.. then you will get the hard spl boot screen..
After this you can flash a new rom.

My first advice is to try another battery. I cant see it being rom or flash related though its quite possible its hardware related and would need service centre attention.
Try a new battery. since you say nothing is coming on at all, I take it theres no power at all to it. You can try another battery or ask someone to test the battery for you using a meter to see if theres any charge in the battery itself.
When you say not fully charged I hope you mean like 40% and not 20% before flashing.
Did you get through all the setup before it crashed? Not that important but just trying to get a picture of what was happening when it went off.
if all else fails if you got it on contract you could ring them and ask them to look at it. If it isnt on contract then might be worth biting the bullet and seeing how much a repair centre would charge to fix it. You should at least be able to get a free estimate.
it can't be the battery, since the phone can work via the net with the battery out, even if the phone is off.

You are responsible of wasting 3 minutes of my life testing your theory...
Polaris wont work without battery as i predicted...at least mine wont...
So the battery might still be a possibility as mentioned above...
I dont see any other possibility beyond hardware failure.I tested all PCarvalho´s xtreme ROM´s and never had problems beyond software issues and he flashed the ROM and it was ok for 3 minutes as he said...at least bootloader would kick in.
Thank u all for your reply : I didn't mention that PCarvalho 's Rom is the cause I'm sure it isn't.
My second step is changing the battery and I 'll till you about the progress.
Still the same proplem after i tested the battery which is charged
in that case its a repair centre job then unfortunately...sorry to say.
Do any body knows where is the HTC repair centre in Cairo,Egypt
actually i had a similar problem. polaris totaly dead. then i discovered, that the sim slot thingy didn't "click in" properly. that solved my problem.
Hey everyone, my hd2 died (original 1.48 rom), I already tried soft reset, hard reset, put out my battery, charge it and everyhting that came to my mind but when i turn it on it wont go further than the first htc image.
Is there anything i cant do or should i just take it back to the shop?
Thanks
I would take it back, even if you do fix it. You don't want a phone that may still have a underlying problem.
Htc HD2 BRICK Need HELP!!!!!!!
I flashed Duttys_Leo_Sense_2.5_5.2.23554.5.5.0_1.72_Multi-Lang_6.5.5_Radio_2.07.51.22.2_V1.2_WWE into tmobile htc hd2 cause i was [email protected]$kin goin Rom happy and didnt double check its compatibility and my screen went blank black, cant power on, cant go into bootloader, and cant hard reset but when i plug it in to my computer it recognizes it as a device without a driver i saw it in the device manager on windows 7 ulitmate. CAN I SAVE MY HTC HD2??
I KILL my htc hd2 (BRICKED)
I used HSPL2_1024_RUN.exe i flashed like 5 roms within 24hrs i was trying them out and this one made killed my hd2.
for those stuck on the htc boot image
take off the back cover of the phone and press the little red button, this will restart the phone
AS SOON AS you press it, press and hold the volume down button this will bring you to the bootloader
connect the phone via usb to your computer and flash a different radio rom (look first which are compatible with your rom)
if this doesnt work, using the same method flash back to your original rom.

for tmous with 1gb rom NEVER flash a radio with .51. in the code.
still haven't seen anyone recover from this. if anyone has please let me know.
Damn it captain!!!!!!
I just got it on the 24th shhhhhhhh....... ummm i just will take it to TMOBILE i hope i can get an other one, they may not have one in stock or they WONT give me another. i will see as soon as the store opens.
Sorry to hear about people's problems. Just remember if you have TMobile
USA there is NOT a way to flash another rom onto the phone..Just give it time the wonderful folks here are working on it. If your still in your 14 day grace period just return the phone to the store and play dumb. You might
have to wait for another phone since apparently they did not anticipate
how many people wanted this phone and sold out quickly. I know I was there
at 6:30 and the second in line and they only had 5!
Anyway, the most important thing you can do here is DO a search!
I KILL my htc hd2 (BRICKED)
BUT I have flashed roms into Tmobiles htc hd2 like TOUCH_X_TREME_23549_TMOUS_2_30_5_49 among others and they worked! i was just try different ones and i PICKED and I BRICKED!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry? sure about that? seems to me lots of people have successfully flashed their tmous hd2.
It only goes wrong if you
1 - flash a rom based on anything less than 2.10 rom
or
2 - flash a radio with ..51.. in the version number.

When I take it back do you think tmobile can they tell if i flashed a rom?

possibly, however its worth a try, there are other people that have reported they got it exchanged. the worst theu can do is send you it back un fixed. They can't keep it and make you pay for the fix.

Shamely going back to tmobile on wed
I went to tmobile last friday they tried to turn it on, pushing reset and taking out the battery so they put me on a list for this coming wed. I still got the bricked one with me they told me to bring it in for a trade. i have tried everything to turn it on but the screen remains BLACK. so i got a BLACK BRICK!!!
Any more ideas?

I do not see a little red button under the back cover. I am in the US, just bought phone, slightly used of course, no warranty. It suddenly went dead this afternoon while charging, will sometimes try to power up but will just keep flashing that one screen "stick together" over and over.....
Tried another battery, same thing.

Mine is doing the same thing . . . in the US, the reset button is right next to the SD card slot, and it's yellow. Mine wouldn't come on Friday, and I started a web chat with Tmobile to see if they would exchange it, and then it just came back on. They said as long as the white sticker at the top of the battery compartment is still white (proving you didn't get it wet), then they will exchange it. It worked fine for me the rest of the weekend (AFTER I did a hard reset, and got it running great!!). This morning, I locked it while running MobiTV, then I couldn't unlock it, so I pulled the battery. That was 2 hours ago, and it still won't come on . . .
If it doesn't come on before I leave work, I'm taking it to Tmobile tonight!!
UPDATED 20 minutes later: Just came on . . . no rhyme or reason why?? Just started after MULTIPLE times of taking out and putting back battery, SIM, and SD card. Got the same error that I've been getting the last couple months on reboots (services.exe)?? When I did a CleanRAM, it free'd up 3.36MB . . . so SOMETHING was hung up, but nothing was running in the task manager??
Generally, few task managers show what's really going on with the phone's memory. Use an advanced task manager which will allow you to control the actual processes running on your device, Google for the names of those which seem to cause mischief and terminate them (if possible) or try to find a solution.

Hey I am also Tmobile User and I have flashed a few ROMS luckily I have not Bricked my phone (knock on wood.) I was just wondering how your return went? I have insurance on mine and figured I would just take it back if that happened. I just didn't know if that would work? Did you ever get a new one
Another update . . . used my phone all afternoon, and tried to charge it, and it wouldn't charge??? Luckily, my husband has the same phone, so I checked his with the same charger. Compared the two phones, and the prongs that hit the battery were bent back. I folded them back down, and now it can charge again. Makes me wonder if that is the problem with the phone not coming back on? Maybe putting the battery back in so that it wasn't hitting the prongs has been keeping it from turning back on . . .
Bricked my blackstone, cannot charge, cannot turn on or enter bootloader. Wondering if there's anyway to unbrick besides JTAG. Thanks for any help.
have you tried leaving out the battery for a few minutes and then enter bootloader? And how did you brick it?
if you have the bootloader hspl on i find it hard that you managed to brick it, your phone might be damaged. have you tried to charge the battery or replacei t with one with power in and start up?
i let my brother use the phone for a while and somehow it came back to me in this state. I've tried leaving the battery out overnight, charging with original cable, zapping the battery with 9v & exposed USB, and also buying a new battery.
I think your the phone is totally dead if there is no charging LED light and the phone will not turn on.
See - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=697568&highlight=totally+dead
i had a similar problem..
there is no charging taking place, no screen display, but if u hold the power key long enough u get a vibration nd then the boot up sound but nothing on screen. leave it that way and after sometime screen starts workin..
found that the problem is something related to "microp error" which is strangely neither a hardware error nor a software error. some people reported that a complete disassembly and reassembly resolved their problem but tht too did not work in my case..
htc said they needed to replace the motherboard, but m outta warranty so m not getting it done.
neways best luck for ur fone
cheers
Thanks for all the input, it's pretty clear that the phone is dead and since i'm out of warranty i will be having the motherboard replaces. I guess you'll see a thread in marketplace for my hd as parts...
Unfortunatly , the same problem occured to me 2 days ago :/ .. the phone was working great , i just removed an application , installed another one and played the monopoly game for like 2 hours . when i finished playing i locked the phone.. tried to unlock it again , the screen didnt work , i tried charging it , the LED didnt work , i removed the battery, restarted the phone .. i heard the login sound but the screen didnt work too.
However, 4-5 hours later i gave it another try ... everything worked fine .. but the same problem occured when i locked it
I am not out of warranty date .. but am pretty sure they will remove my warranty when they find out that i used that permenant spl thingy + a cooked rom
and since an old nokia 7710 Motherboard costs 1700 ep in egypt ( $ 310 ) i cant afford to change the HDs one
anyway, as a last try ... is there anything i can do if i manage to open the phone again? change the rom maybe? oh .. and btw can i change the HSPL back to the stock one + installing a stock rom? maybe then they wouldnt cancel my warranty
oh and whats JTAG ?
thnx in advance for ur replies
Dear Fady
First of All change the HSPL back to the stock one and after installing a stock ROM i am sure your problem will solved.
if you got any information's regarding the JTAG please post here.

I've had my phone for about 6 months. It was working fine, but lately it's been acting really strange. It freezes on boot and get stuck on the "Stick together" screen.
I've tried a HR, Update and it still persists.
I've wanted to flash a custom rom, but the phone also freezes on the boot loader so i can't even get the flash to follow through.
The one time i got the tmobile's latest flash update to work. It rebooted the phone and then the problem was still there. With it getting stuck on the "Stick together" screen.
A few times when i tried booting the phone, the phone vibrated 7 times and then turned off.
I've looked around the forum and searched for quite some time but haven't found anything. (It's a pretty big forum so i may have missed it). I will continue to keep looking but if anything has a fix or can help me please do.
Thanks!
(Glad to finally be part of this community)

Sounds silly but try these two things.
1. There are some pins on the battery that can be easily bent. Inspect them to make sure they're ok. There are usually other symptoms with this though, such as it won't take a charge or won't start at all, just thought I'd mention it.
2. Try it without the SD card in.
Hey, thanks for the reply!
The phone charges fine with the usb cable. It's at full charge right now actually.
I took out the sim card and sd card when i did the HR and before i put those back in, the phone still froze on boot.
Really not sure what's going on, I'm going to try flashing it again when i get home. But last time i tried, it got stuck at 0% and then my phone froze, was scared it was going to brick, but i don't think it did.
Any other insight would be great, i really hope to resolve this issue.
If any other information is needed, please don't hesitate to ask. I can provide as much as possible to get to a conclusion.
Thanks,
-Raymon.
I got the same problem -- freezes and 7 vibrations before it. I made formatting with mtty (task 29 and task2a), it didn't help.
Anybody knows about 7 vibrations signal? Is there leodiag like blackdiag for HD?
That 7 vibrations HAS to mean something...but i'll be damned if I know what. People in both Leo sections keep saying that their phones vibrate 7 times then shut off, and I don't know what that really means....some investigation is in order!
Just got done talking to t-mobile, my replacement is on it's way, still very weird.
Would love to know the solution to this.
Please tell me can I replace my faulty HD2 from T-Mobile? I bought it in Frys without contract and used it with another provider. I never had a T-Mobile contract.

same here, bought the phone on Ebay and i live in Albania.
i have the 7 vibrations and then i have to take off the battery , leave the phone cool down so i can use it again for the next 10-20 minutes and then back to the vibrations
I have the same problem, mostly when i used GPS application, the phone reboot then vibrate one on th esplash screen then 7 times and freeze, the solution for this is to remove the battery for 10-20 minutes, pray and put it back, it is very annoying. I have this problem with ROM including the stock ROM.
hd2 freezes on BOOT!!!
try to take out the sim and leave the SD card in you will notice that it will work much better and get past the stick together screen ..mine does the same thing i think i may theSIM card but who know??
Nice suggestion, but totally useless.
I think these 7 vibrations means fault in NAND operation, but didn't find any approves.
I've this problem too.
7 vibration and freeze.
I've try update new radio, task29, new custom rom but nothing better.
Did anyone found any solutions, Please share.
Thank you.
mine got same problem.. i put the hd2 in freezer (without battery) for 3 minutes, then take it out.. put battery.. and my hd2 can start.. but after a while, when the cold is gone.. my hd2 will off it self.. hehehe
Any solutions?
I have the same symptoms, though the vibrations aren't that frequent, as much as stucking is..
I am not in a position to get a replacement, what do I need to fix?
This seems to be a heating problem, the freezer solution seems to work
