[Q] can't boot hd2 after flex cable replaced - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I wasn't sure where to PST this but I got an HD2 from a friend that had clockwork recovery and a miui Rom already installed. I resoldered the charge port and it worked fine. But I ripped the volume buttons off the the flex ribbon cable. I replaced it with a new one and now the phone will not boot int a ROM. I can get into the recovery manager and the other menus and even flash a ROM but it al not boot.
I downloaded the latest miui ROM .1.10.21, 2.3 and it gets about 4/5 of the way through the flash and then ends abruptly and says installation complete. when its flashing, I see the radio zip 2.15.50.14 and the ROM. The radio is 1st and it appears to flash but it seems not to complAfter ete during the ROM flash.
After the reboot it takes a while to boot and I eventually get a lock screen in Chinese, but the screen is unresponsive. It shows some moving graphics but unresponsive when touching. I left it alone for about an hour and still nothing - screen on but black and it will occasionally cosecha true boot screen again.
So do you all think its the flex cable? It worked fine (even with the broken one) before replacing it. Please excuse me if this should have gone in a different forum.

Try a different rom first, it could be that you are working with a corrupt file.

I just tried to download the ROM again from here:
miuiandroid.com/roms/miui-development-roms/
Still abruptly ends with progress bar at 4/5 of the way through. I'll search for a diff ROM but I really wanted this one.

You are missing the point, the idea of trying another rom is to see if your issue might be hardware related.

Somehow i knew you would be the first to point out this thread is not posted in the right forum
As for shawndh
1) IF you can boot any rom with your previous flex cable then IT is the new flex cable problem
2) IF you have brought the wrong flex cable depending on your HD2 type, then it might be the flex cable. (HD2 has two variants. EU and T-Mobile) I hope you brought the correct cable.
3) ELSE your mainboard has somehow damaged on suddenly short-circuiting through the NEW flex cable.

Sorry, no offence!

Ignore the above: mentioned flexcable for both variants is identical!

Thanx for clarifying that about the flex cables. Well, I found out I have a new issue. It seems the 2nd MIUI ROM I flashed did actually work. The issue is that the touch screen has now become unresponsive. I have no idea what made it stop working though. The digitizer and LCD have never been separated and the connection to the motherboard is good - no damage to the flex cables either.
I noticed it when i flashed the stock t-mobile WinMob ROM on the phone. The phone flashed fine and booted up. But I could not unlock the lock screen. This phone is a real PAI! So I'm going to start another thread about that. Thanx.

push end button hardly to fix this issue temprorary, most probably your end button is rying to kill your digitizer :S

Nice skin I tought, but after installing I performed a softreset and then
My screen went mad showing the attached picture (Sorry for the quality), Uni was stucked at that screen not working soft or even hard reset.
After taking out battery and place it again I tried a hard reset and this time worked, all is working normal now but every soft reset I made since that event it appears the same freaky screen...
Any ideas of what is going on with my Uni is more than apreciated
Thanks in advance
Does it continue to boot now after the freak screen? Or do you have to do battery & hard reset each time after soft reset?

Yes I was just going to say install a new boot screen. Mine went feaky for the first time just 2 weeks ago. However it didn't affect the boot-up, just looked funny. However, I expect that if the picture was affected, it could also quite have easily been the boot up too.
I have a very nice boot screen which I copied from someone else* and added my own bits...
(*someone else, sorry I forgot who, but you're quite welcome to step forward)

Hi Orb,
Find the splash image attached.
It will be flashed as a rom image so please do necessary backup of your data and then start flashing. Please note that you need to re-flash the OS image (i.e. my v8.5 or v8.9 etc.) once again after the splash flash is complete.
Step by step:
1. Backup the data from your device
2. Connect the USB cable
3. Flash Splash (rom) image (do not reset the device at this stage)
4. Flash OS (rom) image
5. Hard-reset your device

run task29 to clear your rom space from all the flashing, reflash your chosen rom using usb, and check your battery connections, some possibility of a bent pin maybe.

here my picture about my pin and battery:
hhmm looks all ok to me, I'm sorry this doesn't help you in anyway at all but there seems to be a few people this is happening to of late.
now my LEO cant turn on..poor me...
hey man,
i just had the same problem and i was freaking out for a bit. i was stuck on the screen forever.... but i knew i was in a okay situation because i was still able to go into bootloader mode. anyways, i tried to format my sd card from my tools>>format sd card>> after that i restarted and my phone would hang on the tmobile splash screen.
i then tried to flash miri rom and it was still hang. i reflashed the last known working rom which was energy rom and it booted up perfectly.
im curious how your phone wont turn on? sorry to hear that man.
same problem with my hd2
i bought this phone on ebay and have the same exact problem it is stuck on "stick together" screen some times its boot and work normaly but after 3-5 minutes it reset again back to "stick together screen" this is frustaiting please help
I find this happening to me afew times a day actually, it gets rather annoying but I find taking the battery out for about a min or two and then trying again helps usually. It's a pain when you have to pull the battery 5+ times just to get your phone to start back up.

Could be the rom, could be the hardware, could be the radio.
thanks for your help guys is there anyway to check which one it might be ??

Process of elimination.
Flash the stock rom and double check your required spl/radio combination.
If it still doesn't work then it's hardware.
If it does then it's either the rom or the radio.
Good luck.

That would be the problem. I'm sure of it. Then again... if you had no radio then I fail to see how your phone is even booting. You're probably using a rom that is incompatable with the radio that you have installed. What rom are you using?
Reboot to bootloader (power and volume down) and tell us everything that you see on the screen.
You might want to take the sdcard out first so you don't accidently flash anything.
thanks for the reply, when I restart and press volume down and power button I get message and its says factory mode and there is a few options mainly testing hardware also clear flash and that's it, when I posted the results I can see under heading of bootloader said N/A, I have tried many times to load different ROM but just can't I used ROM manager and followed other ways shown on these forums but for some reason this phone is stubborn and can't modify it

So there wasn't any text on that screen?
Was it a white screen or colorful?
We need the SPL version, radio version, S-ON or S-OFF etc.
thanks for response, I can't see spl version, when it loads factory mode, its got black background with yellow text and blue highlight under heading of version it has uboot ver 1.1.6. the headings are full test item test, version clear flash which is nand type flash and. reboot nothing else

Yeah... I really have no clue what your talking about.
Your sure you have a MyTouch device... right?
Mind taking a picture if you can?
You should have something that looks like this:

Give me everything above where it says Fastboot USB in red.
If you don't have this screen while holding down the back + power or volume down + power then I would think that you have a different device.
thanks for your help mine looks slightly different has a little black hole on the left but. I think it might not be the same when I bought it the guy said its htc magic but I think it may not be I don't have the same screen come up as you have shown

HD2 bricked?

Hi at all.
I'm a member from Germany so please excuse my bad english.
I think ,y device is bricked. Installed Android on my NAND since it was out (I think it was Feb. 1st) but now nothing works anymore. The device hung up several times since monday, so i decided to update the rom (Typhoon Cyanogenmod 7). After the update it was the same experience: the device hung up every boot at the lockscreen of android. I tried to flash clk again, flashed MAGLDR, i also flashed a WinMo 6.5 Rom but nothing works. The device gets stuck at the first boot screen.
I dont know what to do now. I love my HD2 so i pray to the lord, someone got the conclusion to my problem.

I would start from scratch.
1) Flash task29
2) Flash MAGLDR 1.13
3) Flash Android again
it should be fine.
It also sounds like your HD2 may have a hardware issue, maybe cpu overheating.
If you still get this flash stock from SD (go to HTC and find your stock ROM), if it STILL does it send it in for warranty.

Done exactly this several times. I cant send it in, cause i bought it on ebay without warranty *cry* Thought i should update the radio rom, but the updater got stuck at 96% and send "INVALID COMMAND, the update is not for your phone" Now i get Upgrade ROM code error at HSPL screen

that means you need to flash official stock for your area, get it from your IMEI number on the HTC site.
Also, HTC does warranties by IMEI and when the device was originally purchased, so even though you bought it from ebay they will probably still cover it.

tried to update via the newest htc official rom...failed at 8%
It says the updater doesnt work for this phone...
EDIT: after 6 times of trying to flash the stock rom, it finally ran through to 100%.
The phone reboots and...*tada* stuck at first boot screen
Huh, you're having the exact same problem as my brother-in-law. He bought a cheap HD2 phone hoping I could fix it for him, but the same problem occurred. I tried my best on the damn thing for nearly 12 hours, but it was all for naught -- the closest I could get to installing a ROM on it was 99% before it freezes.
I haven't tried MAGLDR yet, but flashing a radio had the same problem.
As a last resort, I was going to try the technique mentioned in this topic (perhaps you can try it too): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668347&highlight=Bricked
P.S. Don't worry about your English. Your English is still better than my German.
I tried the unbrick tutorial, but it fails at the mtty-program, cause it dowsnt show up USB (using windows 7). Using the Task29 program doesnt work either. So back to start with the device stuck at the first boot screen

It sounds to me you may have internal hardware failure. I know it sounds crazy but some members with your exact problem havechad success with this method. Put you HD2 into a plastic sealable bag and place it in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes then immediately flash the ROM from SD card when you take out. If it works I will tell you my thoery on why it works.
Cant flash from SD card, the bootloader doesnt show any flash-options when i boot into hspl

Well either you don't have the LEOIMG.nbh file on the root of your SD card or you need to reformat your SD card using Fat 32, make sure to malefactors back up copycof you SD card on your computer before you reformat it though. Also if the HD2 still has a ROM on it it might just boot up aftercgivimg it a good cool down in the freezer. The reason I say this is because sometimes if the processor has become somewhat disconnected from the main board form overheating or other reasons. The cold makes the internal parts contract just enough to get it to bootip all the way. Now after of warms back up it may shut itself off and reboot back to the same screen it is stuck at now. Which in this case you will need to get te main board replaced to permanently fix the phone.
reformatted the sdcard from fat32 to fat32: doesnt work
ok, i tried the hint with the 15mins-freeze and it works!
i flashed clk, android and after 10-15mins, it back to start: the device hangs andgets stuck at the bootloader...
Try magldr... To rule out software related issues

Well I am glad to hear the freezer trick worked but sad to hear your problem sbowed back jp again. Like I said in my last post if it come back that means for sure you have a hardware issue. probably need another main board.
Sorry man.
So you are able to flash but it always returns to the SPL? I've seen this twice now and it was physical NAND failure in both cases.
i am able to flash but the hd2 freezes after a while and at the reboot it gets stuck at the bootloader (android logo)...with the freezer trick again, the phone boots normally (no need to reflash) but the device freezes everytime after 15-20 mins

You have either a thermal breakdown of fhe processores connection or bad physical space in the NAND chip.

[GUIDE] Restore hd2 back to wm6.5 with broken volume buttons

I would like to announce that the hd2 that have the volume buttons broken can be repaired. This guide has to be taken with caution as it may create a nuclear explotion. This will only work if using magldr, as it will boot by it self when connected to USB.
Requirements:
USB
Computer
Hd2 ruu
t-6 screw driver
- screwdriver
The first thing is to dissassemble the hd2 completely

2nd is to get something that can hold the LCD and digitizer up.
3rd, connect the motherboard and camera flex cable together together and don't close the flex cable connection
4th, connect the LCD
Now a USB
Next the battery by put tape to hold it the motherboard so it can make contact with it.
Now, we need the computer ready to flash oem Ruu, connect hd2 to computer and with a - screwdriver connect the first 2 pins at the mother, before it boots.
Only blue and yellow
It will enter tri-color screen and now it can be flashed.
Once flashed disconnect USB and take off battery of hd2 carefully and assemble back.
And that is how u go back to windows mobile.

Nice work my friend, one suggestion though you may want to put guide in the thread title. This might help get better traffic to your thread
Thanks for a tip man
Nice tip. Hope I don't have to use it.

Hi stevediaz,
Why do you say it will only work using magldr?? I have an HTC HD2 with the ribbon/flex cutted. I would replace the main flex but would like to be sure that everything is working before trying to replace it. I can't boot the HTC (it doesn't gets past the white splash screen with the htc logo) because the volume buttons aren't working. It got bricked when I tried to flash it with android after the "task29". I believe never installed magldr. Can I still get to the bootloader using your method and try to install windows or anything else?
Best regards,
calcaneo

There are several reasons for hanging at the HTC splash screen, lots of them recoverable if you can get into bootloader and manipulate menus, so its definitely worth you giving this a try.
If magldr isn't installedis not the bad, u can still. Restore aslong as it does work, but It will be harder cuz u will need the power button connected and it I harder but u will need helping u to restore it to windowsmobile. I am already working on a guide to install clk and magldr to install wp8 or android without the volume buttons.
