i am wondering, does flashing new rom affect the hardware button issue on hd2?
HD2
gooding working for you!!!
Flashing a new rom shouldn't affect the functioning of your hardware buttons.
Although there are a few special occasions where the hardware buttons seem unresponsive due to a software fault.
If so i would recommend a reflash of the rom or try another rom

So it seems that sometimes my D-Pad works and sometimes it doesnt. Would anyone possibly know the cause of this or a potential fix? I am running the latest No2Chem rom (5047 I think) with few software. Would it be a hardware or software issue? It did it previously with DCD's newest rom so thats why I tried No2Chem to fix the Issue. But this problem never occured before using any of the custom roms out there. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi. I've tried to install a few new roms to my device but after installing it i couldn't hear any voice in my ear when i was calling and the other person also couldn't hear me. After pressing the end call button the phone almost everytime frozen and i had to take out and put back the battery. Could you please help me with this problem?
Thanks
Hi, although you haven't said what ROM's you are talking about some ROM's require a radio update too. Could this be the case? It's probably better posting your issue in the custom ROM section.
i've noticed the same thing (so far i've tried only Energy ROMs)
i think ill be reverting to the original ROM soon
at a guess i'd say it was a radio issue, check out the radio thread in the roms section and upgrade to a newer one i.e 2.08 and this should solve the problem
I have been troubleshooting this issue for some time now and have narrowed down to 'my HD2 unit' which has an issue only on 2.10+ base roms. Apparently this does not affect most users and appreciate any ideas for resolution.
When using 2.10+ base roms:
Receiving calls, the screen blanks off which is ok for calls but when I try to access the phone during the call, no buttons can light the phone except the end call which of course ends the call.
When any other buttons pressed, the button light just turns on for a split second and turns off, nothing else. Volume buttons seemed to work as volume can be changed but screen just remains blank. After the call is complete, the screen turns back on automatically.
Strangely out going calls are fine and do not exhibit this symptom.
What I have tried and does not help:
Different radios (both 576mb & non 576mb versions)
Different HSPL (1.42, 1.66, 2.08)
MTTY, fresh rom install, hard reset everytime and test immediately before any application install
One more note is that my unit was one of the early batches which I ordered from expansys.co.uk but should be from HK.
Thanks in advance...
Are you enabling Tap Time or Screen Sensitivity using BsB Tweaks? If so switch them off and see if that resolves the problem.

Nope. I have been using Topix all the while and tested each rom from a fresh install, no additional apps.
Currently I have downgraded to Topix 1.6 (1.72 base rom) and the issue was resolved

so you've not tried other 2.10 based roms, just the topix?
maybe try another rom based on 210 to see if you get the same effect?

Yes, I did try. in fact originally I thought the 2.10 rom by zenkinz had problems so I switched back to Topix then 1.6+ roms. now I know it is due to 2.10 rom compatibility...

Strange thing is I never heard that before. You say more users experience these problems but at least it was never mentioned in the topix thread nor did I read about it in other threads. Did you ever flash back to stock and perform a task29?
You can check 2 things.
1- Older radios caused problems when 3g mode was set to auto. 2.10 radios don't have this problem.
2- Could be a problem with the proximity sensor hardware or settings. Try to test the proximity sensor by some other means.

Probably a good idea to try. I will try and feedback once I download the stock...
Well the stock flash did not work.
Tried to flash back to stock, hard reset
Re-HSPL, mtty, Topix 1.6.4, hard reset
Problem still exists, running out of ideas now...
I had the same problem...-My- solution was...
...turning off the -Face mobile down to stop ringing- feature...
FW-ROM v1.66 -hTC-
I Had exactly the same problems with miris 2.10 based roms. After some requests he built a 1.72 based rom. After flashing radio 2.10.50.19_2 a task 29, Installing HSPL 1.66 and flashing miris 1.72 rom the problem was gone. i also noticed a big improvement in in call audio quality and data connection stability. I am using his new v15.1 rom with the 1.77 base and it is great His roms are available at htcpedia.
Hope it helps
Hi there,
Im very new here. I have a T-Mobile HTC HD2. Both HTC and WinMO are something new for me, as previously im iPhone user. Any guide/help is very appreciate. The phone keep hanging during boot. Usually its hang during the pink box and when htc sense finish load. How do I fix this?
I would like to install android on this phone. Is it possible for me to install after I update to latest OS(WinMo 6.xxx).
Update:
My HTC HD2 keep freeze during boot. Now I want back to normal, whatever ROM is it.
Welcome to XDA and whole real world as I am sure iPanzy kept you down but thats another matter for another day. Now I am not sure what pink box you are talking about you mean the splash boot? What are you using WM6.5? In that case look below.
Now you have few choice as HD2 is true multi platform device, as we are belessed with superior dev team and support many OS. You can use dual boot WM(NAND) and AOSP(mSD) or you can use NANDROID. If you pick dual boot I say use WM6.5.X as base 29XXX is by far the most superior stable then if you want to use AOSP then download and install Android on SDCard or skip all of that and use NANDROID as native.
Pink box I mean is probably shows "Stick Together" words
Now even worse, after few second the phone boot it freeze. I`ve tried factory reset, the same thing keep happening. What should I do now? Should I flash to new offical ROM/OS?
FYI in using T-Mobile HTC HD2 with 1024MB ROM.
For now let forget installing android on but focus on the freeze.
Thanks for the help STHNS
I know you are using Leo1024 as its TMobile also I had feeling it would be that ugly logo thats why I said splash boot. Which was the first thing I got rid of when I got HD2 and put custom splashscreen.
Now it would be unwise to jump in to Android as you might want to check if your HD2 is functioning properly so later if something does go wrong you can send it back for warranty without issue. So lets be clear what are you saying? You can't load in to your WM6.5? SenseUI never loads? or your stuck at bootscreen? Is it used/new? Where did you get this device?
My phone stuck on 3 difference places. I keep reset so the phone can be use normally. Indeed very few time its successfully boot.
1. Stuck on Pink box logo"Stick Together "
2. Stuck on loading Sense UI
3. Stuck after finish loading Sense UI.
Most of it stuck on 2 or 3.
Well no problem first where did you get this device? I have a feeling its used and you got it though some type of shady deal where original owner gave you talk about blah blah lol thats why he sold it, I could be wrong
But serious matter here shut the HD2 down completely and power it back on. Then report what you see the in steps. Hopefully you got it new if something is wrong due to faulty hardware you can send it for repair or warranty. But I have a feeling you don't thats why you came here :O again I could be wrong I am just always suspicious
Its used and i bought it on eBay.
Btw how could flash to offical ROM?
What rom is on it? And why would you want official rom? If you want WM based rom go use EnergyROM WM6.5.X 29XXX base as its far more stable.
EnergyROM WM6.5
Does the installation is same as official ROM?
To test the phone, I advice to go to the HTC Website and download a ROM (you have to use your phone's serial number to guarantee to get one suitable for your phone). If I remember correctly there are 3 variations: 2.08, 2.10 and 3.14. - go for the 2.10 (just to keep away from the 3.14 version as you want to move onto Android). Flash the ROM.
After a hard reset there should be no problems, if there is then your phone has hardware issues.
Thanks for the info fred.
Where I can download the 2.14 version?
What is shipped ROM?
What the diffence between shipped ROM vs official ROM.
Sorry for a lot questions. HTC and WinMo is something new to me. Im iPhone user.
2.14? You mean 3.14?
1) Shipped rom is the default manufacture rom that comes standard on it.
2) No diff between shipped and official rom they are same thing we call them stock rom. Which is supported and maintained by the folks who made the phone.
If you want to upgrade stock rom not sure why you want to do that you can go to Tmobile website and check under wmupgrade or go to HTC website and look under support. I say you forget about WM 6.5 stock rom and go use WM6.5.X EnergyROM base 29XXX its simply superior in every aspect.
The reason I suggest you flash, for example, the 2.10 ROM is that it will flash the SPL, the main ROM and the RADIO. This will get the phone running fully on an official ROM.
The problem you have can either be modifications to the operating system software or additional software or a hardware problem. By flashing a stock (official) ROM you will have cleared the existing operating system and additional software. Now if the problem is still there then it is very likely that it is due to a hardware problem.
If after flashing the problem is gone, then by all means flash the excellant Energy ROM or flash your desired Android ROM.
If you only flash a custom ROM which does not include the RADIO (which controls all communication interaction and not just the FM Radio) then you are reducing the chances of finding out the problem.
Silly question, have you tried booting the phone up without the SD Card?
After all the problem, freeze, hang up and etc I no longer put any sd card on my htc hd2. I beleive the problem might be with the hardware. But why not we try our best before given up on it.
I had several simple questions.
1. Can radio be downgrade?
2. What radio for? Its same like baseband on iPhone
3. Where I can download 2.10 HTC HD2 US T-Mobile? Search here found nothing

1) Yes you can downgrade Leo_Radio's long as you use the correct one as you know there is .50 for HD2-US(Leo1024) and .51 HD2-EU(Leo512).
2) Radio is software that controls your phones wireless interfaces such as data, voice, bluetooth, gps, wifi and other power and memory related firmwares. Well never used iOS so can't say what they call it but far as AOSP goes yes we call it baseband.
3) Search for TMoUS 2.10 stock rom and you will find it or do search in this forum as I am sure someone has it archived.
3)
Answer to your question No. 1 - Yes, Radio can be downgraded and upgraded if you install HSPL prior to downgrade/upgrade. FOr the rest you have to search the forum for the answer.
Heelo, yesterday i've flashed Albe 95 rom 4.0... a beautiful rom!
But...But...my Hardware Keys after flash stop working....they don't do nothing...are dead.
I've reflashed the rom and retry with 3.5 version...but nothing.
I don't think that the problem are the hardware button...but the rom
Thanks
P.s...sorry for my bad English
Install stock firmware and check the buttons again. I think that problem come from the rom that you have installed.
