My HD2 quit working.
When I power it up it goes to the magldr screen and beeps 7 times then freezes.
I know that if a desktop computer beeps 7 times it means the CPU or mother board may be bad. are the cell phone beep codes the same?
If I boot to HSPL it comes up with serial and when I plug in the USB the computer says USB device not recognized.
Other than throwing off a cliff, does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Try a difffernt usb port and cable, there are options to update/flash via the sd card, just search.
The cliff option, only provides short term satisfaction, in the long term I recomment the above options
try the search feature
Also, have you been doing some battery pulls lately? If yes, then ckeck your battery pins .. they may be bent. Otherwise, come to the monitors for a debrief . I meant follow the above post .
You can try different USB ports and see if that helps or even reinstall Active Sync or Windows Mobile Device Center depending on what version of Windows you are running on you computer. But to be honest with you it does seem to be a corolation between the 7 beeps or 7 vibrations and a bad processor or main board. So to me it sounds like you need to get it replaced if you still have warranty on it. If not the cliff is up to you, lol.

Hi everyone,
Recently, I tried to get my phone to tether using these directions: (can't post the link yet, but these directions are kind of universal)
2-On the phone, go to keypad and dial ##634#, then press the [Call] button.
3- A diagnostic mode screen in gray will show up.
4- Dial *#7284#, and press the [Call] button.
5- A Microsoft USB Test screen will show up which allows configuration of USB Path Control settings (options available is Zune Sync; Modem, Tethered Call; and Modem, USB Diag).
6- Select Modem, Tethered Call.
7- The phone will automatically restart to activate the setting.
8- Connect the phone to PC with a USB cable.
..and so on and so forth
However, when I tried to put it back to the zune/sync, it wouldn't work. I go back to the menu where it gives me the three choices of zune; tethering; and USB modem, and it shows that the phone is on the Zune sync option. However, when I plug in the USB cable into it, the computer doesn't recognize it - there's no charging involved, and the zune software doesn't open.
Additionally, when I try charging it to the plug that came with the package, the phone doesn't recognize that it's connected to that either and it still doesn't charge. Does anyone know what the issue is here?
I've tried multiple times to go back to the Path Control Settings menu and switch it to Zune Sync but nothing is happening to remedy the situation. Any pointers?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
A long shot but did you by chance set the Zune software to sync wireless ? You may need to set it to No or turn off wirless Sync.
Settings>Phone>Wireless Sync
Make sure your phone is connected and sign into Zune. Again only a long shot.
I'm 99.9% sure I didn't set it to wireless sync. I turned off the wireless on my phone to conserve battery as well.
Also, in order to check the wireless sync setting I need to connect my phone, which I have, but the computer nor the phone has registered the connection. (No sound made on either end, and the battery charge icon isn't showing)
Thanks though! A long shot is still a shot!
edit: FYI, I'm running Windows 7 64-bit. I'm not sure if that had anything to do with mucking up my phone as it did...
This sounds pretty strange. I have been changing from Modem to Zune back and forth and no problems at all.
I guess a Hard Reset will do the job for you. But I am not completely sure. Good luck.

Do I understand correctly that you cannot charge the phone with the wall charger?
If that's the case, it's probably an issue with your cord or the mini usb port.
Did you make any other changes while in Diagnostic mode? If you're not sure, check out this thread.

Yes, you understood correctly. I cannot charge the phone with the wall charger. It's the charger that came with it, so it's the charger that has a USB port. I've also tried using different USB cords unsuccessfully. :-/
I haven't made any other changes while in Diagnostic mode.
A hard reset is a last resort. Although I'd still want to figure out why it happened as opposed to just figuring out how to fix it to prevent something like this in the future.
Thanks guys!

I think the mini USB socket on your phone may be defective. Fortunately, the setup following a hard reset isn't nearly the task it was on WM...
So I tried a hard reset, and the thing still didn't work.
I'm assuming this is a hardware problem. Thankfully AT&T has the whole 30 day exchange thing going on.
They couldn't fix it there, so they did exchange it for a new one. The new one works. So yay!
Thanks for all your input peoples!
I looked through similar threads but have found no solutions.....
My TMOUS HTC HD2 randomly stopped charging, even when plugged into a wall charger or computer. No orange light even displaying when hooked into the charger when powered off. I have bought a new battery and charger and still doesn't work.... Whats weird is that there is usb connectivity (only using MAGLDR v1.1 with an android NAND android rom installed in usb android flasher mode). I am guessing this is a hardware issue so i am trying to return it to stock, the only problem is that windows mobile device center 6.1 x64 on my windows 7 desktop will not recognize/sync with my HD2..
I would like to return it to stock so i can send it into HTC for repairs (if possible)
I would really appreciate any possible help
hold the volume down button when turning it on. You should see a screen with 3 colors. At that point, you can flash stock.
I have done this but the only problem is that the computer wont recognize it and the phone stays in "serial mode".
Any thoughts?

And you have WMDC 6.1.......sounds like a screwed up USB port.
I was playing with the way i plug the DVP to my computer. Only difference this time i was using a external powered USB hub which is then connected to PC. While doing so, the DVP re-booted and came to this screen. Has any one come across this?
View attachment 498186
I have seen that once after plugging into the supplied ac adapter when my battery was almost dead. I think it happens when the phone thinks the battery is dead.
nvr seen it. what di dyou do?
Its so weired I was unplugging and plugging back in a few times to see if it does again - it did actually. Then i was confusing this symbol with USB composite mode and started researching online. Then all of a sudden, zune opened up and all back to normal again.
I believe this only happens when there is a dead battery. It turns the phone on because it has to be powered on to charge properly but there is not enough power in the battery to run the os. It then allows a short charge cycle, then restarts and loads everything. That has been my experience with seeing that symbol. If you plug in the phone with a dead battery and try to turn the phone on, it will load this symbol until it charges for a few minutes, then it will allow you to turn it on.
I believe that symbol means its charging, and it doesn't yet have enough power to fully turn on. USB provides less power than a wall outlet, so it can't fully run off of a USB power source.
Thanks for the replies folks. For a moment, i thought we are onto something
But at-least this made me research and dig for any clues on my pc.
I was looking at the event log and error logs and came across a reference to VHD (Virtual Hard Drive). But, i am not sure if phone is set as a VHD and accessed by zune or its the emulator doing it. If you have WP7 development tools installed, do a search on your pc for '.vhd', you will come across one called '....NandFlash.vhd'. This will show up if you happen to have developed some app and done a run via the Visual Studio WP7 emulator. I did try to mount that VHD and it isn't allowing me.
When i looked at that file in Textpad/notepad/wordpad, it has many a info (registry and user info,etc). But, with my limited knowledge can't figure much.
Yea, you get that screen when you're phone is dead and trying to recharge. Also if you don't turn on the phone while charging, you can slide your DVP up. This will allow you to see the keyboard flashing to let you know it's charging. I don't know if anyone else found that but that's what it did for my DVP.
Hello every one,
When I plug my Omnia 7 with my laptop, it appears the message "USB Device Not Recognized. Unknown Device (Code 43)." I have tried different ways posted in this forum but non of those worked. I tried to restart my pc, plug off battery, hard format my phone, tried in different laptops, and the other methods, but non of those worked.
I need help please if anyone could tell me what to do I would appreciate.
Try reinstalling zune, maybe even reinstalling sammy usb drivers.
Sent from my OMNIA7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I have to say .... we can spend hours understanding these windows phone
I do not know why a windows phone cannot be synced with a windows computer. Am having the same problem. My device appears as unknown device in Device Manager. I tried to update the drivers from Zune folder, but it does not find the correct drivers there. Any help would be so appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

All you can do is to cross your fingers and pray
Cause mine started working one day out of no where .... so i think with MicroSoft products, everyithing is based on pure luck
I think I can help - it may be the BATTERY!
Hi - I stumbled on this thread by accident but had a very similar problem - I will look up the Whirlpool thread where I wrote about it as it was a while ago - but similar symtoms all fixed by replacing battery. _ i dropped my Ominia briefly into water.
Here's what I wrote in Whirlpool forum on 2011-Oct-31 (can't post link as new member) Thread Title "Samsung Omnia 7 i8700 - Part 2"
My beloved Omnia 7 took a very quick dip in the pool on the weekend. Life lesson learnt: "Do not put phone in top pocket as it will fall out."
Anyhow I grabbed it straight away and turned it off – dried it off etc – I was amazed it booted and runs BUT things are not good.
� Phone works normally (all functions, wifi, apps, OS etc.) on external charge either AC or PC USB
� Phone works normally on battery, but it keeps playing an alert chime, will not sleep, and in Settings / Battery Saver it flashes on this screen � and it does not sleep as whatever it�s alerting on prevents idle.
� Goes to sleep when on AC/USB charge.
� After plugging into AC/USB, and unplugging from AC/USB, phone runs normally, believes it is being charged, does not play alert chime, but does not sleep
� Does not interface with PC via USB � plug into USB causes �USB Device not recognised� (tried different cables/PC�s)
� Does enter download mode, but USB not available.
At a long shot, it may be the battery. I know I could buy online (risk it won't be the issue). All I need to do is a quick battery swap test but need a spare battery.
WHAT A MESS. Let me know if you are a Brisso and wouldn't mind sharing your battery for 5 mins....
If replacing battery fixes the problem then GOD knows what Engineering Samsung/Microsoft is upto

I had the same prob here and windows can not recognize my Omnia 7 any more after it caught rain.
I had the same problem on my Windows 7 (64 Bit)
Unknown usb Device , lot of posts have found and at the end it was USB-Cable !!!
The problem was in the length of the cable, with long (1m cable) i can flash but no connection over Zune, after i take cable from my Nokia 15 cm short cable it works without any problems.

What Windows are you using, do you have original ROM on your Omnia ?
For example if you are using some other rom than original , that there you have changed settings for USB port (In Diagnose Mode you can check this)
I am on original German T-Mobile ROM, exact same issue, no cure for now. Looks like an end of life for old good Omnia ...
But I did force update both 8112 and 8773 yet before ZUNE actually suggested the update .So not really in a position to complain.
But if anybody here did a "fully legal" ZUNE update (no flash no forced) then it means that the update itself is a problem and MS / SAMSUNG are responsible (not that it ever changed). Did anyone on OEM ROM with the issue upgrade in a fully clean way ?
Just now noticed - this is similar to the problems mentioned in another 2 threads hot here - just in another case people experienced only annoying "alert ringing". Looks like some of us get hit more severe, others less. XDA gurus - PLEASE spend time on this ! This looks as a massive desease case, last hope is XDA.

UPDATE : after all, this was not software related issue. USB port got rust, 70$ to replace it - all troubles gone, connects to PC and no alarm.

My phone ran out of power, shut down, and I plugged it into my laptop to charge it... only it won't charge.
When plugging it into my laptop it tried to install the drivers (don't know why since it was plugged in once before) but failed.
I checked the Device Manager to see what the issue was, and instead of it listing "Nexus 4" (as it has in the past) it says "QHSUSB_DLOAD."
Now I've googled this, and read several post about it on XDA, but they all mention bricking the phone when flashing ROMs and/or Root.
The thing is, my Nexus 4 is NOT Rooted/Unlocked/Etc. It's running the same Stock as when Google shipped it to me back in Nov of last year.
What can I do to get it working again???

Plug it into the wall for about 5-10 minutes and try again.
If it doesn't work, just RMA it.

That is beyond confusing... I've never once had this phone plugged into a wall charger (wall charger was sitting in the box until moments ago) and all of a sudden it decides it doesn't want to charge off the computer.
After charging it from the wall as you stated; it powers up and will connect to the computer without listing QHSUSB_DLOAD as the device name. But instead it says Android ADB Interface, and won't let me access the device as a Media Device via Windows Explorer (in fact it doesn't list the device as connect at all in Windows Explorer. It's only showing in Device Manager)
Sidenote: While waiting for a reply here on XDA to the issue, I decided to contact Google Support via phone about the issue. The reps answer was "Contact your computer manufacture and ask about the drivers you need from them..." - Just love some of their answers to things.

Well, sometimes the phone runs out of charge and it refuses to charge from the laptop.
Have you tried restarting the phone and then plugging it again?
