So , i had my hd2 and i got magldr on it and clockwork i think how its called , for installing android from sd. Android worked fine but then suddently it just turned off and i can't put it back on , not even in the bootloader ;s its just a black screen , no response or nothin , tried to plug it in , not even showing it is actually recharging , the battery was 60% at that time. Also i tried everything , hard reset , soft reset & taking the battery in and out, also tried to connect to my pc , but it didn't do anything. Any solutions for this? plz im desperate
It seems like your phone is bricked. That's the time when it becomes so unresponsive (like it's dead) to how you described it.
and is it possible to unbrick this?

Not in your case. Only if you were able to boot into bootloader then you could.
you got any suggestions what i should do?

A jtag method could fix it... pm send to you.
Bent battery pin.
how can i see this , how should the pins be?
If one is bent it is usually pretty obvious, all three should be sticking straight out, all the same, but they catch easily on the plastic surrounding the terminals on the battery.
The normal cause of your symptoms is a regular radio flashed to a tmous,, or a flat battery. If the option of putting another battery in your phone, or your battery in a different hd2 is possible, you should deff try that, just to rule it out.
the pins are all ok , i can see it on the led of my powerplug. when i put the battery out it is green when i put it back in it is red
Hello there
i have exactly the same problem with my HD2.
Did someone managed to restore his phone ?
Thanks

It's happen when i try to flash the 13.29.55.13H_3.35.07.20 Baseband via Recovery. My device is Tattoo A3232.
After reboot there's a Recovery picture so i tried to remove a battery and turn on again but this time it won't boot at all. no Tattoo logo or anything. and then I tried to plug a charger and there's no charging light. and i've plug into computer and no devices found.
I don't have any clue to do now. so i just try to post this before i go to HTC Care. I really hope you guys can solve this one.
UPDATE: they've replaced a new board with the old one. Now my Tattoo is 100% health!
I know this sounds stupid, but what helped when I had a similar problem with my PC (not mobile phone) was the following: removing the power cable, waiting about 10-15 mins and then plugging it in again, then at least it booted again.
maybe if you take out the battery and wait quite a while it will at least show the tattoo logo...else there are different causes for your dilemma: a piece of hardware is now bricked, the phone ROM is damaged, memory completely wiped...don't know what is the cause of your problem - but you should pray that HTC Care will repair your device if nothing else will work
what hapens if you hold volume down button and keep it held while you power it on, you should see spl screen ??
if you do get the white screen with the 3 androids then you are good to flas an IMG file

nope, nothing appear at all. probably like TheSSJ said. I really hope they will claim the phone.
When you were putting the battery in the slot, have you placed it correctly? Please, check your battery and let us know.
and then I tried to plug a charger and there's no charging light

This happens when you incorrectly place the battery back.

Or when the device is bricked...I don't think the battery was placed incorrectly into the phone...^^
now it's been taking care by HTC Care now. hopefully they'll repair it.
good luck
good luck, i hope you get a good result without any problem because you were flashing at the point of fail.
keep us posted on this, im interested how fair they play in replacing your handset.

UPDATE:
they've replaced a new board with the old one. Now my Tattoo is 100% health! it's came with a new RUU though. 1.67.729.xx i think. not the 1.67.405.6.
and of course I already rooted and flashed fyodor custom room.
@3DPRO: congrates
I have tried rooting about 5times with excellent results, this time it did go well for a beginning. I flashed the rom and the phone said success and wanted me to reboot. Then a image with a phone laying on the stomache with light on a greeen symbol with (!) in a triangle came up. Now my phone is dead =( plugged in to the computer dosn´t even work. Not even the powercable. Whats should i do? is it broke? Help! plz!

yup..i thought of rooting my phone, but now
Have you tried pressing the Volume Up + Power button to get the recovery menu? I would try that first.
like i said before.. the phone is completely dead. I have tried it all, nothing can power it up. It doesn´t even feel the powercable.. the orange LED isnt on. I think its very strange that no one else have had this problem.
is it a h/w issue?
or have you resolved the problem already?
When the picture of the phone laying down with the triangle was up you didn't pull the battery did you?
I have got the same problem after updating to another rom. But the rom was defect or it didn't show progress in 5 min time. So I (stupidly) deciced to pull the battery from the phone.. and now I can't turn it on/charge..
please tell me if this is a fixable problem?
Brooks316
Yes, unfortunately i did :S i tried all buttons and it didnt help so i pulled the battery, what went wrong and what would the proper solution be? it said sucess when i flashed it and then the screen jumped up and it was already to late :S
I havent fixed the problem but it´s taking care of. I have it on service so in 1-2weeks i will get an answer.
Hi guys! Thought you might want an update with my problem.. i picked it up from the serviceplace today and thanks god it was an warranty thing. They said the mainboard was broken and replaced. Thats like the motherboard on a computer, correct? Can a f*cked up rooting/flashing be the reason?
Hey dude, i am guessing they replaced the mainboard because the chip that stores the rom has been courupted, they wouldnt have been able to diagnose it or replace the chip so must have been easier to replace the whole board haha. Your lucky they couldnt tell you had gained root on it!
Before anyone says it i have been searching all day.
I recently had MAGDLR 1.13 on my HD2 and it was working fine. and a friend suggested i give cLK a try. and i got to the fastboot and everything seemed fine. when i unplugged the phone the screen went off. and now it seems the phone wont work unless plugged in. i cant boot into ANY OS. and im very much so afraid my phone may be done for... some one PLEASE HELP!!!!'
UPDATE: I fixed it. it was a pin misalignment issue.

If it turns on while plugged in then its obviously most likely your battery that is fooked.
Try a different battery or leave it charging for hour or 2.
agreed.
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Premium App
you guys are 100% Awesome you really think leaving it on the charger for a while will help? More info btw It can flash anything as long as its plugged in. ive changed it back to MAGDLR to the stock Tmobile US Rom. and now it just boots then as soon as the OS gets ready to show up then it just reboots again... you think its the same issue?
sounds more like battery pins / charging hardware fault to me, and since it is now in a bootloop, which is common in battery pin problems.
Check the pins carefully.
EDIT - oh just seen your update in post 1, lol
Hi there,
i have search but can't find anything
A friend of mine just gave me HD2 and i was super excited about it.
The phone wasn't used for ages so i plugged it for 10 minutes and while plugged i tried to turn it on.
the phone started to vibrated continiously without displaying anything.
I removed the battery, unplug power, inserted battery again and it just vibrates like nuts
Once out of 5 (roughly) it flashes... the flash and then vibrates... again nonstop
once out of 10 (roughly again) it just doesn't do anything at all.
even when plugged to the power, no led or nothing.
did i get a dead beast ?
I tried, holding buttons, pressing reset button, etc but with no luck...
hope you guys could help me... many thanks in advance
Check the battery pins on the HD2 and make sure that non of them are bent slightly or anything like that. A slightly bent battery pin can cause the HD2 to do some crazy things. If non of the battery pins are bent then you might just have a bad NAND chip and the only fix for that is a new main board.
Nice bike in your avatar pic too by the way.
just checked them all out and they are well aligned and don't seem to have been touch
that sucks
Cheers for my ride i like it too ^^
cheers,
i just checked them all and they all look just fine
sound like i am fu**ed am i ?

Dang man that does suck, I hate to tell you, "Yeah it probably needs a new main board.", and then someone else come up with another idea. But I do think that is going to be your fix. i say this cause if it was bricked it would more than likely vibrate one brief burst and that would be it, nothing else. but the steady vibration sounds more like a bad component on the main board. Sorry friend that is my opinion. Maybe I am wrong though.
something new happened this morning
I left the phone without battery all night and put the battery in when i got up.
the screen displayed the following message.
/!\ Software update failed. Please Try again.
I couldn't do anything from that point so i pressed the reset button... (didn't want to remove the battery)
phone went off....
as it wasn't responding to anything... i took the battery out and back in.... and brrrrrrrrrrr ... back to scare one
any ideas ? doesnt smell good ...
PS : sorry for double post, hotel connexion in cyprus does really suck.
speed is bad and unstable... they have 150Mb line for the all island (no joke)
cheers

keep the volume down button pressed then swutch on your phone ...if you go into a tri colour screen ..then you might be in some luck ....then you have to go to the official htc site and download a rom update from there ..and flash it ....
i tried but nothing
now it's just dead...
i plug in it so maybe it will charge the battery normally but it doesn't seem to to anything. normally there is a led indicator no ?

orange led will glow ...when plugged in ....maybe your friend tried to flash android on it but didnt succeed thus causing phone to not charge ...or maybe it is a serios hardware defect ...you can buy replacement motherbrad from here http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mainboard-Motherboard-HTC-hd2-leo-T8585-/260819122167?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cba07f7f7#ht_500wt_969 take it to your local repair shop and tell then to replace it ....try this if there ar no more hopes there are cheaper boards avalible too on ebay search...be sure to buy this mbd ...only if your phone is non T-MOBILE

Yep it sounds like a bad NAND chip. My guess is it has bad blocks that is keeping it from booting and the steady vibration is being caused by the same. Again just my opinion. I say this because it said, "/!\ Software update failed. Please Try again.", this is common in cases when the NAND went bad.
Hi everyone,
I would really appreciate it if you could give me an advice for my TMOUS HD2 P81120, that won't turn on.
I bought it with some firmware problems, spent plenty of time flashing it and finally managed to install a stock ROM from SDCARD using a fridge (it couldn't install w/o such cooling).
After that, it booted to white splashscreen with pink logo (smth like "Bringing happinness", don't remember the text) and stuck on it. I rebooted, flashed HSPL 2.08 successfully.
After that the device won't turn on at all. When I hold the Power button, all I get a barely sensible short vibration, but the screen stays completely black, no signs of life. I kept it on AC charger overnight — nothing has changed. When I hook it to the charger w/o the battery, and put the battery in, HD2 powers on itself (same short vibration, no other signs of life). Tried removing the sdcard, different combinations of power-ons, still nothing. Tried freezing it again for 5-10 mins — still no luck.
Please let me know what else I can try.
and one more thing — when I plug the USB, the PC doesn't detect any device.
It seems that a JTAG is my last resort, still I'm not sure I can find the hardware for that.

the problem is that your HD2 are overheating so the only thing thats left in your case is to replace motherboard

Good point!
Make sure that none of the three pins on the phone that touch the battery are bent. One of the causes of constant reboot is when one of those pins are not touching the battery. Please let me know if it worked for you...

That were definitely not the battery pins.
If anyone cares - here's how it ended (or not yet )
I found a JTAG service in my city, they wanted 50$ to restore the device to a working condition. I agreed, they took the phone. After that they've called me and said they have restored the bootloader, but can't make HD2 actually boot (they flashed stock ROM directly through JTAG, but it always got stuck on "Stick Together Screen". Now I understand I have probably flashed the wrong rom/radio — that's what has bricked it. I paid them 7$ for "diagnostics" and got back a phone with a working bootloader.
After that, I used the "fridge" method to flash latest radio for HD2 and some custom Win6.5.3 ROM (10 mins of fridge before each step). Then I cooled it again and put the cold phone on a frozen chicken (still laughing on that). Guess what — it booted into WM6.5, I even managed to make a call, though it rebooted in 3-5 mins. Overheating problems confirmed, at least it's not a complete brick.
What I've done now is found a guy that will try to "reball" the CPU's BGA - sort of "reheat" the chip to get a firm contact of it with the motherboard, and solve the heat problems. He'll call me today and let me know how it went — i'll update this topic.
As a conclusion, I can only say: "Check three times what you're flashing before you actually are flashing". Otherwise, JTAG is a wonderful "resurrection" solution, although a bit pricey (my case is pure luck).
