Cant turn off HD2 in Phone options

I have recently started having a problem with my HD2. When I long press the end button to bring up the phone options menu in order to power the phone off, the touch screen becomes unresponsive and the phone locks up. At first I thought it was a problem with one of the Android builds I was running so I reformatted my SD card as well as tried a different Android build. That didn't work so I re flashed the Windows ROM I was using and still no luck. Now I have flashed to a different Windows Rom and refrained from using Android and it still doesn't work. The phone options menu pops up, but it wont register that I have pushed anything. I would say 1 out of 20 times it will register a response and will shut down. This is the only time I have a problem with the screen. I am able to do everything else with the phone, but use the phone options. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem? Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me. I have searched all over this site and the net and have not found anyone with a similar problem. Oh yeah I have also done both soft and hard resets to no avail.
Did you try removing your MicroSD Card to see if that changes anything? I had that happen to me a few months ago and it worked after I removed the card. Not sure why that has any effect on it at all, but I'm a trial and error type of guy. Ended up formatting my sd card and after that I never had the problem again. It might not work for you, but it's worth a try.
Thanks for the response, but I have tried that and no luck. The card has been reformatted and the phone does weather I am in windows or android.

i have the ssame problem just started today
Hardware issue related to touch screen ribbon cable located behind end button.
on WM OS you could create a link to launch endkey.exe (found in windows folder) & use that instead of physically pressing endkey. This would overcome your issue to some extent & help diagnose fault as hardware or software ...
Got the same issue, I found this thread helpful:

[Q] HD2 screen unresponsive - only when attemting to use the lockscreen slider

Help please. I was running WP7 and the phone started giving me problems when trying to wake it up and slide away the unlock screen. I thought it may be a bug in WP7 so i reformatted the SD card and flashed back to 6.5. During the first boot the screen functions fine, but as soon as it locks, and I attemp to use the slider on the lockscreen, the phone is unresponsive. Tried soft and hard reset..Phone works fine until the first sleep.
I am starting to think its hardware related but i dont understand why it works fine until the first time it locks itself.
I'm having the same problem. And the freeze also started after trying the wp7 Rom. Even when I'm on win 6.5 it still keeps freezing the screen after first lock. I hope it's not a hardware problem.
Hardware problem, just got back home from the post office to ship mine out. Many threads on it. If you are under warranty, revert stock rom and SPL and send it in. Please answer the poll in m sig below so we can have some good data on which ones are breaking.

[NEED HELP] Screen takes so long to turn on?

I just switched from the HTC Desire to the HD2 and installed android on it.
I compared the two phones and I noticed that when I click on a button of my desire the screen will turn on instantly. On the HD2 however, when I press a button first of all the backlight goes on but only shows a black screen, then after 1-2s my lockscreen finally appears.
I think theres a problem with my HD2, but did someone also noticed this or could compare his HD2 to another android phone? I hope there is some sort of fix for that although it doesnt seem like a common problem
thank you
follow this thread for more info your problem.

reboot
try rebooting your HD2 a few times, this might fix it
As far as I'm aware it's a problem with all Android ROM's on the HD2. I have used WP7 and have got none, but then with Android ROM's I get it.
Well that was before my phone bricked itself.
Why don't you flash Task 29, before Android Rom.

[Q] Touch screen not working on HD2 using Ultimate Droid 3.2.5

I have been using Ultimate Droid 3.2.5 for a couple of months now and a few days ago i pick up my phone to make a call and the screen doesn't respond when I touch the screen. Only the bottom buttons and volume buttons work. At first, if i I play with the buttons at the bottom i can usually get the touch screen to repond. I tried to wipe data/dactory reset and reinstall rom but now I cant even get it to work like before. Only thing I can do now is answer calls and call back the last person that called me. Has anyone else had this problem?PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks!
Did you eventually find out what cause this issues?
I think my phone is behaving similar, I'm using different Android ROMS for quite a while now, and suddenly without any apparent reason the touchscreen isn't responding very often after waking up the screen. It won't happen if the screen is on and the touch screen is working, only after a wakeup..
Sometimes it's just impossible to get it working again, and I'm forced to wait a while until it decides to respond again. It kinda feels like the phone is forgetting to wake or initialize the touchscreen properly.
ROM and Kernel changes didn't solve this so far.
I think the issues originally started with Typhoons CM7 NIGHTLY 3.7.1 / tytung 12.4v3 for me.
Actually I never found out what the problem was. I just flashed it back to stock and had T-Mobile send me another one. That was in May and actually a few days ago it happened to my phone again. So this time they sent me an HD7. It really sicks that they dont have that phone anymore. Cant do sh*t with this HD7!
Same here the Power Button is the problem, you just have to train yourself not to use it. I use Button Savior and Button Remapper. On my second HD2, luckily T-Mobile sent me a HD2, but that was in like March, right before my one year was up.
Make sure you keep this one working cuz there will be no more HD2! I may find one on Craigslist or something. This HD7 and Windows 7.5 really sucks monkey nuts!!!

Yea I played around with WP7 on the HD2 when it first became avaliable and wasn't really worth the time and trouble it took to get it on there. One month later I went back to NAND and haven't looked back.
Same here! Registering Zune was a problem at first.
Thanks for your quick response! Yeah, seems to be a problem with the end button / flex connector of digitizer
I found another helpful thread about this issue: The Infamous Unresponsive Digitizier Screen Possibly Solved!
Obviously you need to replace the digitizer to fix this problem.
I'm sticking to the solution of not touching the button at all, there are apps to turn off the screen and shutdown the phone. At least waking with any other buttons works most of the time for now, but it's not really a long-term solution.
Wish I would have saw that thread b4 i sent my phone back!!!

[Q] Touchscreen not working on WP7

Hi!
I just freshly got a HD2, and decided to turn it into a WP7 device. The phone works perfectly (and I do mean perfectly, the touchscreen's just as responsive and precise as it should) on stock 6.5, but as soon as I flash WP7 (mango/tango) onto it, the touchscreen ceases to work. I tried several builds, the physical keys are working, but the touch isnt. What can be the cause?

Go back to stock ROM, If your touch is working there, if yes let me know, I'll give advice thn.
Best of luck
Already did, several times actually, how else would I know the touchscreen didnt just get messed up somewhere in process? Im pretty much running like a headless chicken, I cant get android to work neither (clockwork recovery stops at 1 2 3 4 5 6 GO!, no matter what I do).
I task29ed, tried different partitions, every generic piece of advice. WP7 boots, has sound, reacts to volume keys, prompts to slide to shut down when I press the hang up button long enough, but there is no response from the screen whatsoever.

I had this issue for a very long time and it made me bonkers. I even contacted T-Mobile and they sent me refurbished HD2 to deal with it. I thought it might be a defective digitizer, then I thought that it had to be some issue with the backplate not being on correctly, then I realized that it was the series of roms I was currently using. I would suggest that you do a hard reset "End button+Up Volume+Down Volume", then start from scratch.
Flash Magldr 1.13, radio 2.15.50.14, and installing the Pdaimatejam 7.6 mango rom. Here are some resources:

Pdaimatejam Mango Rom
Let me know if this helps.
Thanks, but it didnt work neither :/
