HD2 touchscreen broken? - HD2 General

Hi got a problem with my HD2 which i got a couple of months ago, it came with WinMo 6.5 as standard, so i decided to put Android on it, so i flashed all the MAGLDR and clockwork mod stuff on, and loaded HyperDroid GBX onto it, this ran brilliantly up until yesterday when i briefly browsed facebook, then i locked the phone and put it back in my pocket, next time i tried to use it the touch screen would not respond whatsoever. Only the physical buttons worked, so i pulled the battery out and reset it but that has not helped.
Any reason why it suddenly failed like that? Very annoyed

Hi!
Try to return back to stock WM, it might help.

When I turn on the phone with the power button the touch screen doesn't work so I have to use any other button and it works. Running the same rom as you.

Yeah i noticed that too, when ever i unlocked the phone with the power button most of the time it didnt respond but any other button worked fine.

i sent it to repair.they will change the whole screen

Go back to a WM6.5 stock ROM, if the screen still does not work, then you may want to consider having it repaired. If it is under any sort of warranty make sure you un-HSPL it.

What happens if they find out that I have run Android and Energy rom on it?
Now it has SPL-3.03 0000 and I think the latest ROM.
Can I send it in like this? Is the spl original?

Once latest official ROM is installed and phone booting normally, nobody cares what OS was installed on it before You can have even SPL 2.08.000, it will pass check-in. And yes, SPL 3.03.000 is the latest official one.

Hope you are right, because I don't want to end up in jail for having messed with the copyright....
My phone won't open, the screen is not responding. But I know I have the 3 14 0466 ROM(?) and spl-3.03.0000
the multi-coloured screen says:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL 3.03.0000 XE
MicroP (LED) 0x05
MicroP(TOUCH) 0x40

Did You tried to flash through SD card?
It's easy. Just unpack somewhere downloaded ROM, rename file RUU_signed.nbh to Leoimg.nbh, copy it to your SD card and go to tri-color screen. Then you will be asked to flash the phone and after after pressing Vol+ key it will start to reflash. Hope it helps, goodluck!

thx
was that last one for me? I think I have the correct Rom and SPL, the screen is not functioning, so I am planning to send it in for repair.
I have tried sd-flashing, and it didn't help. Used different sd-cards and LEOIMG.n...
but I managed to get it to the spl and rom as mentioned.
Planning on sending it in, bad plan?? or good plan??

If it is still under warranty, go on
In what circumstances your touch stopped working? Was it dropped ground, placed in wet conditions (eventually steam or mist or submerged)?

no reason really. Never dropped it, had it since last March.
Ran Android and Energy-Rom on it since october...
No Idea why it stopped working

It doesn't work all time or only after standby/block? I've had same kind problem with touch not working after standby, with Artemis WinMo ROM. Solved after HR but after few days repeated. I installed one of the latest NRG ROMs and it solved this trouble. If touch doesn't respond all the time then it may be dead because of controller failure and should be replaced IMHO.

it is totally blocked. nothing works on the screen. buttons are ok, but the phone is locked, so i can only see the unlock-slider...
IMHO?

It's My Humble Opinion

Heheh, thanks. I am sending it in then. Hoping they can fix it. Can't be that expensive, if the warranty isn't valid. If warranty covers it, I am glad...
Thanks for your help

Phone stuck at white screen with HTC

Hi there,
I really need help!
I wanted to flash my phone with a nbh file, but I could not enter my bootloader.
I had installed HSPL3.
Now someone told me to use Flashaholic ROM update utility.
I did this, and a black screen with a % indicator appeared, not too long, it restarted, and went into a white screen with htc in the middle.
Restarting with volume down button pushed doesnt bring me into bootloader.
What can I do now?
I really need help!
Unfortunately, if you can't get your HD2 to boot into the bootloader, there's not much to be done.
Are you sure you had HSPL installed? Because from what I have heard, HSPL is there to always allow you to use it for flashing stuff, regardless of the integrity of other software parts such as the radio or the ROM, so reaching the bootloader should not be a problem for anyone.
Can you connect it to your PC via USB? If you manage to get a connection, you might just have a chance to flash another radio/ROM.

I installed HSPL3, and it said it was succesfull so...
After that I installed a custom rom with an utility that came with it (Dutty's)
So far I know, I cannot get any connection, but I try to download a stock rom (an utility exe) from HTC.com.
But I think this won't work right? because you have to sync.
You could try and flash a stock ROM via the SD Card, see if that works. There are some instructions here on XDA in the ROM Development section, check it out there.
Basically, once you have downloaded an official ROM from htc.com, extract it as if it were an archive and get the ruu_signed.nbh. Rename it to LEOIMG.nbh. Then take your SD Card, format it to FAT32, place the LEOIMG.nbh on the card and put it in your phone. While holding down the volume down button, boot the phone and a white Loading... screen should appear and the flashing process should begin.
I`m afraid this won't work either, as the bootloader is supposed to show up in order for you to be able to flash anything, but it's better than doing nothing, so...

I really need my phone fixed =(
Hi, if I remember correctly, you already said in the Artemis-thread, that the VOL DOWN button is broken. If this is the case, I fear there is not much you can do...
Have the same problem too.
I've installed a few roms with no worries, tried one about an hour ago that performs a Task 29 and i'm also now stuck at the white HTC screen...
it says the task29 was succesfull and then got stuck on the white HTC screen and the rom failed to load as the laptop did not detect a usb connection...
I've downloaded a stock rom and put it on the SD card named LEOIMG.nbh and tried pressing the vol down button, the Red,green,blue,white screen appears i can see
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL 2.08.Hspl 8g XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x30
Then "serial" at the bottom or if i have the phone connected to the pc then "USB" appears.
If i hold both buttons and perform a Hard reset the phone asks to press Vol up button then says restored really quickly then freezes at the white HTC screen..
Any suggestions
Cheers
Actually got it sorted now, the rom had the Flashaholic utility built in which i haven't used before.
As we speak the rom is now installing phew (stop sweating now)...
Thought i had bricked it...

It's not broken, it just worked before I did the task29.
The phone is empty, and has no bootloader, and no ROM.

task29 DELETES the ROM. You NEED to install a ROM. A Radio-ROM should be installed automatically with task29. If this isn't the case, you need to install a Radio-ROM too. You can either install the HTC ROM or you can install a custom ROM like forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612580
Suggestion: Enter bootloader -> connect USB -> install ROM with CustomRUU

Well im not able to.
I did a HSPL before then I putted a custom ROM Dutty's on the device.
After that I putten a Stock ROM on it again, and then I used Flashaholic, and after task29 it got stuck.
Well no bootloader means no HSPL which is good news for your warranty coverage..
Just go to HTC service and play dumb " uhm i was playing around websites with a flash game and uhm my phone uhm rebooted and is like stuck ever since in uhm HTC logo"
Now if the case for not being able to load the bootloader is a broken volumedown button, yeah ur pretty screwed, prepare to dive in ur wallet.
Were do you live? If you need help and there's one living nereby maybe we can help (p.e. a full battery) I live in the eastern part of the Netherlands (Overijssel) PM me if you can come.
On the Kaiser (my previous phone) I also had a problem I couldn't enter the bootloader anymore, but I can't remember why or what I did to recover it.
- If it was an allmost empty battery and recharged it?
- If I have used a special tool to connect?
I really can't remember.
If I read your story, I think you have loaded a corrupted NBH thru SDCard method, otherwise i think you cannot wipe your bootloader. Task29 only wipes the ROM area not the bootloader.
Have you tried to contact Bepe or Cotulla, cause i think they know everything about (H)SPL.
Otherwise you can start building a new house (you've got your first brick )
have you checked you battery connections, the middle one is notorious for getting bent out of shape at which point the battery will not charge and you can't flash you ROM.

Sending HD2 in to HTC

I called HTC to get my phone repaired since the touchscreen is unresponsive. I previously had Android installed on my sd card, and energy rom flashed. I recently downloaded the new update for the phone so that energy rom would be gone. Is there anything else I have to do before I send it in? Something to do with the original HSPL or something..
sorry i'm a complete noob at this, please help ]:
funny my t mobile hd2 touch screen stopped working last week also and i have to send it in also.
i have the first revision model with the red reset button and i have been seeing alot of problems on line with these screens. the second gen ones with the yellow reset button have better screens apparently.
you need to remove the hspl and have just the spl on it.

Get a default Stock Rom that's shipped for your Serial number. Put that on the root of your SD card after naming it to leoimg.nbh.
Now run the bootloader with the SD card inserted, and follow the onscreen steps.
(re)flashing to a stock shipped rom will reset everything, i.e: remove HSPL, stock radio, stock rom, etc.

I flashed the old rom, and tried removing HSPL, but i got an error, now all i see is a triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle... when i turn the power on with the volume down button, i get "Upgrade ROM code error Please try again"
I'm planning to ship it within the next hour, do I have to fix this error before shipping? Or would it be fine..because when I turn it on with the volume down button, it says

[Q] HD2 Stuck at Lock Screen

1. I bought a used HD2 with Froyo installed.
The Issue that I encounter is the touch screen gets stuck at the lock screen, if it goes to sleep and I try to wake it up, I cannot slide to open.
2. So I decided to install Gingerbread on it, I can do the setup, once the phone goes to lock, I try to wake it up, but can't unlock. Even when I reboot, touchscreen is unresponsive, tried to take battery in/out, nothing works.
3. So I decided to restore to factory by installing the "RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.10.531.1_Radio_Signed_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08_2_Ship"
Rom
4. Everything wipes, I can load back to windows, touch screen works, then it goes to sleep.
Guess what, I can wake it up where the screen comes up by pressing the buttons, but the touchscreen slide for lock won't respond.
I even tested by calling I can answer the phone by pressing the call button, but no touch screen response.
Any help what I can do here?
Thank you!
How you installed original ROM
If you mean the original t-mobile rom.
I held down power plus the volume down button, until I went to the tri-color screen.
Then connected USB, until it said USB, and ran the Rom exe
It wiped everything from what I can tell and brought me to Windows.
I thing the best for hd2 is when format sd card and put in it stock rom for hd2 and flash from there
fyi - when i take out the battery and reboot in the phone, the touchscreen does not work at all.
Not sure which rom i should install.
well , I thing you must put stock rom from htc.com , because maybe you have some bug in the phone , I had similar problem before , and i put stock rom from htc.com , and then install hspl radio rom magldr cwm aggain and everything ok after that
Well Android was on the rom, so I went to T-mobiles website and installed the stock rom, but still issues, touch screen now not responding.

The ROM you flashed is a stock T-Mobile ROM. It is just the older version look for the 3.14 ROM on the HTC site or go to T-Mobile.com to download it. You will have to enter the IMEI number from behind the battery if you go to T-Mobile.com. also you can download them from the T-Mobile text and stock ROMs thread in the T-Mobile Windows Mobile 6.5 Development forums. Do not use the 2.01 ROM from that thread though it contians a radio ROM version 2.05.50.11 and that radio will brick a TMOUS HD2. Also I suggest running a task 29 on your HD2 fort then install the ROM. .Just Google Task 29 for HTC HD2 and you will find it.
but you installed the original rom with USB right , i thing you must try to install the rom from sd card
So I installed a rom from T-mobile still no luck, touchscreen not responsive.
For Task29, should I run 'Task 29 w/o mitty', then do the install for the t-mobile rom?
Thanks
Yes - I installed the T-mobile rom from USB via the PC.
How am I suppose to install it via SD and what difference does that make?
Thanks
I ran Task29, then did the t-mobile rom, touchscreen not responsive at all now.
i dont know if it a software issue or hardware now.

Go to the "[TUT] Flash your ROM / Radio via microSD" thread to learn how to flash via SD card it is easy.
And yes you may just have a hardware issue, usually it is the digitizer that has malfunctioned when you lose touch capabilities.
So what is the advantage of doing it by SD?
By the way I reinstalled MAGLDR and Gingerbread, still no go, the buttons work but no touchscreen.
How did the guy get the touchscreen working initially when i tested it today, but it stopped working when i was there, he told me to just install a newer rom.
i fell for it and now its not working.
i guess its digitizer but can't be for sure because it was working this morning for a bit.
thanks

Ì just know instalation via Sd is better , but you sure the screen is fine I just ask
p.s
just try to install stock rom via SD maybe this bug will be fixed
I'll try it - otherwise will have to see if a hard reset does anything, read about that too.
last recourse is to find a specialist to repair it or something
the screen is in mint condition

Just to let you and others know the deference between flashing via USB and flashing via SD card is this. When flashing via USB if you have HSPL on your HD2 it will not get reverted to standard SPL if you flash an official ROM. If you flash via SD card your HSPL will get reverted back to standard SPL if you flash a Official ROM. Also flashing via SD card is a little safer because you have no cable to get accidently unplugged in the middle of the flash.
I'll probably try this tomorrow, but after I do it with the SD card and it does not work.
Will I be able to redo the HSPL easily?
Ugh - such a hassle buying off craigslist.
thanks for all the input by the way

As long as you have a SPL that is in the list below after you flash the ROM you will have no trouble flashing HSPL back to your HD2.
SPL 1.42.0000
SPL 1.62.0000
SPL 1.66.0000
SPL 2.07.0000
SPL 2.08.0000
SPL 2.10.0000
SPL 3.03.0000
Reason to believe that a hardware problem, the proposed repair inspection

[Q] So, how does the bootloader work?

Hi, I just got a new HD2 (after I thrashed my first one). I've been fixing some other peeps phones too, so I know all about the flashing procedure.
I've installed HSPL and a new radio onto the phone, but when I enter the bootloader screen all it shows is:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
Not cotulla or anything. Any ideas about what's wrong? and what does the last line indicate anyway?
It does boot up with stock ROM, but the touch isn't working! I tryed to install MAGLDR, but it always got stuck at 123456 ---- and that's it. Any ideas ?
My suggestion is you re flash HSPL as it seems it might have not flashed correctly. I also suggest you run a Task 29 and re flash MAGLDR. It just seems you might be having troubles with your NAND memory. If this does not fix it then it is a chance you have bad blocks, but that is only worst case senario.
Bad blocks, meaning something on my internal memory on the motherboard? Because the motherboard works in my other phone (which screen is totally trashed)
Okay, so I got it too boot up in WinMo with touch working and everything.. It's just that the SIM card wasn't inserted. When I tried that, the touch won't work..

Yes bad blocks means bad memory blocks in your NAND memory chip. But from your last post I do not think you have any bad blocks.
I am a little confused now though, so do you have a working HD2 now or is it still not working correctly?
Well.. The whole story is:
I have had my HD2 (let's called it HD-A) for about 1.5 year now, but recently I got drunk and threw it to the ground, thus breaking the glass, so the hard buttons in the bottom fell off. The touch was still working and so was the phone in general.
Then some dude asked me if i wanted to fix his phone (HD-B) (which his friend bricked [it was doing a boot loop]). I though, tyeah I'll try to fix it, so he mailed it to me. When I got it I tried, but failed so the phone don't even turn on anymore, even though it totally new. When I told him he just told me that I could keep it for spare parts.
So, I put the motherboard from HD-A into HD-B. They are the same model T8585's and everything match. The phone turned on and everything, but then came the problem from #1.

[Q] HD2 Stuck in Booltloader mode - with some odd behaviour

Gents,
I am hoping someone can help me with an odd problem.
I have spent a fair few hours reading through the various threads and found a few similar issues, but nothing quite the same.
I have tried the various suggestion on those posts, but have unfortunately not getten very far.
Thought that perhaps the best option is to start a-fresh with a new thread that describes my issues with the HD2.
Needless to say I have a HD2. Originally came with WinMob6.5.
Last year I decided to flash with Android and flashed with UltimateDroid Rom which I very much loved. As it had SPL 3.03 0000. I read a few posts, and had no problem changing the SPL to (HSPL) 2.08.HSPL and MGLDR1.13.
I recently got myself a Desire HD and thought as I have two phones, it may be worth flashing one of the ICS Roms to the HD2 and have a play and see what it is like.
I flashed one of the ICS Roms and was fairly pleased with it, but did have a few bugs, and decided to flash back to a different Android Rom. I thought that the best way would be to first flash it back to the original HTC Stock Rom before I start.
I downloaded the file from the HTC website and flashed it. Ever since then It will not do anything other that boot and stay in the Bootloader screen.
I tried to flash it again with the HTC rom - it goes through the flashing procedure just fine, but when it reboots, yet again, all I get is the Bootloader screen.
I read a few threads and found suggestions that I flash it using the SD. I did that, and yet again, all it would do is boot to the Bootloader screen and do nothing else. The only issue I found with flashing from the SD is that it changed the SPL back to 3.03 0000.
I had no issue using the HSPL4 and changing it back to 2.08.HSPL. But yet again, will allow me to do nothing else.
Ive tried a veriety of suggestion like using task 29 and HD2ToolKit4.2.0.1 etc and I am getting absolutely nowhere.
The really frustrating thing is that when I run the RUU flasher, it detects the phone, and goes through the flash gets to 100%, tells me it is successfull, restarts the phone and I am back where I started - the continues Bootloader screen.
So, any advice and help would be very very much appreciated.
The Bootloader info:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0X05
CotullaHSPL 0X30
Thanks.
Faulty voldown button, perhaps? Registering permanently pressed?

To test this if you have reflashed stock WinMo, hold volume up whilst it's booting and it might ask you if you want to hard reset. If this happens, then samsamuel is correct. If you're lucky, it might just bootup normally as well

Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately, not worked.
Holding the vol up button, does nothing.
It just boots right back to the bootloader screen.
The odd thing is that I can flash it just fine. Its detected by the pc, it flashes all the way through to the 100% and says it is successfull, but then on reboot, goes right back to the bootloader screen. Its well frustrating.
I am not sure if this makes any difference, but the phone was originally on the Virgin network and also Virgin branded software.
Thanks.

I don't think there would be any difference, except that of course being on Virgin your connection would be sh*t My brother and mum are on Virgin and get really poor connection everywhere

I am really at a loss. The obvious question now would be, is the phone bricked? Or is there a solution somewhere?
I have tried absolutely everything I can think of.

I've tried.
The only one I can find is RUU_Leo_Virgin_Mobile_1.66.351.1_Radio_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Signed_LEO_Ship
I tried flashing it both via pc, and sd. Flashes fine, goes to 100% no issues, but on reboot, is back to the Bootloader screen.
Only noticible difference is that the SPL has changed to 1.42
Anyone have any ideas?
try hassling virgin for a replacement would be my advice. Youve tried all the sopftware options (most noteably flashing the stock rom) so i gotta suspect a hardware fault, whether a faulty key, or whatever. So long as the spl line says 1.42.0000 1.66.0000 or 3.03.0000 then its valid for a return (of course warranty is probably gone by now, but worth a try)

Thanks from the reply. I was starting to think that its bricked.
I've also tried as a last resort creating a goldcard, but to no avail.
Thanks for the suggestion with Virgin, I will give that a go.
Thanks again for the effort.
