Just keep it plugged in for 1-2 hours and then try booting in to try color screen bootloader and go from there.....
If you have MAGLDR installed then you can not charge the battery when the phone is off.
You should try to charge the battery using an external charger.
Edit: If you have a friend with HD2 and windows Mobile 6.5 then you could use the phone to charge you battery.
Wrong, you can charge it while it's off.

really? are you sure? because there are a lot of references to the magldr bug that wont allow charging (or even powering on without pulling the battery) if you try to charge with the phone turned off.
well i tried to charge for the last 2 hours nothing tried to remove battery nothing. Iam going to try and find a charged battery to see if the phone mite turn on or something. ill post later to let yall know what happen tho. thanks for the help.

Just give it a try man and see for yourself whether it charges or not....
what are you guys fighting about man, they just updated the magldr v1.3 and yeah we can now charge the phone while its off

Wrong x2.
1. No one is fighting.
2. With new magldr, phone turns itself on when plugged in. Charging when off is not possible. The battery requires management which is only implemented in software. It may hold a small charge if you have magldr installed, but it won't charge fully, or properly. Also, it's not likely he's got the new magldr if he's returning back to windows.
Lastly, for the OP, what method did you use to return to winmo? And which winmo rom did you use?

Find a way to charge your battery and everything it's going to be just fine.Your phone it is going to work.
Changing the battery should work.
I'm new here so basically with new 1.13 or later phone can't be charging if it's not turned on?

Read? Phone turns itself on if you connect a charger. Phone has NEVER charged while off with nand. This way at least you don't have to pull the battery to turn the phone on.

Just in case: If you on same situation that described on first post try this:
Q: If you completely run down the battery, would you be able to charge it with the phone again?
A: If your battery is dead, press and hold Vol Down and plug in USB cable / charger at same time. Phone will boot into bootloader and charge there just fine. Leave for 20 mins, pull battery, reboot and charge normally. If phone has just run down, plugging in the charger will usually turn it on.
Its found on one NAND thread and goals goes to g.lewarne
Actually i was on same situation and this helped on first try.
check the connection between battery and phone , the metal things i mean.
Perhaps, it is off the subject, but...
Poster #1: why do you want to get rid of this beautiful phone?
Just curious...
ok i bought another phone and i took out the charged battery from it and put it in the bricked HTC and it does nothing. now i know it was almost reverted back and i think the battery ran down but Iam not completely sure but maybe it could have been in the reverting software i used and maybe it just like lock up or something cause at that point you couldnt see the battery indicator. now i guess ill just have to sell on ebay for parts but it would be cool to try and un-brick it or try and figure it out.
Hi all,
I have 2 HTC HD2s. I have had the first one for a couple years now, flashed with magldr 1.13, cwm, and an Android Nexus One NAND rom installed. The second HD2, which I just flashed, has the same setup. However, the second HD2 will autopower on when you shut the phone down, where the first one will stay powered off. Any fixes or suggestions that I could try? Thanks, guys.
Check the battery pins on the back of your phone, and make sure they are straight.
Also, remove battery, plug into charger, wait, wait, put battery back in, magldr will boot, then android, remove charging cable, power off. ()
Ok so following the above-mentioned instructions, it turns off. However if I then plug in my phone, it turns on automatically lol weird. Is this typical behavior? My other HD2 doesn't have this problem.

This is standard magldr behavior. Use clk if you want the power off feature while plugged in.
Thank you

I was trying to delete every files/folders on the SD card while it was still in Android OS and when it was connected to my desktop via usb cable but then when I finished deleting the files/folders and when I take out the battery to reboot the HD2 it would not turn on at all.
Then when I plugged the HD2 into a charging cable via the electrical outlet, the HD2 would turn on at the "Stick Together" logo then turned off after about 3 seconds. It repeats this pattern of turning on and off continuously when the HD2 is plugged in. It would be completely dead and would not turn on if it is disconnected from the outlet and just be on battery power.
How do I fix this? Did I just brinked my HD2? Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks.
i had this happen when my charger cable went bad one night and my phone drained down to nothing. just the boot logo like you described then it reboots.
i hope yours is the same. that the battery has too low a charge to start the phone further.
I let mine charge for a half hour then it worked.
also check to see if the battery terminals are bent a little and not letting the battery charge.
good luck

Were you running an SD build possibly?
Also as previous poster states check for bent battery pins where all 3 contacts need to be straight in line.

It is not the battery problem. I have two HD2 and I can check the battery power. Both batteries is at 100% full charge.
I just don't know how to fix this problem. Please help.
Oh, and yes, I was running the SD build prior to the problem.

SD Android should never affect WinMo, but that has to be one of the stupidest things ever. Why on Earth would you delete the files key to the system whilst in Android?

I did not know that it would mess things up. I thought that WinMo would take over once I take out the battery.
So what happened to WinMo? How come it cannot boot back to WinMo now ?
Any fix for this?
I had the same problem when installed Winmo 7,5. turned on only with cable and restarting every 5 sec.
I took out battery for 10 mins and when plugged in worked normal.(but after every turned off i had to take out the battery) and because of that i turn back to winmo 6.5 and ics android sd card (haret) and until now working perfect.

Unfortunately I have no clue. I, like you, wouldn't have expected that. Just try re-installing if all else fails I guess. Unless by some miracle it begins working again I would think this would be the only way, sorry
Also try reformatting your SD Card to FAT32 format and see if this has any effect.

In this case your issue is normal. Windows Phone (not WinMo which is seriously sh*t but Windows Phone 7.5 which looks to be amazing) runs through MAGLDR which does not support cold charging (charging when phone is off) therefore when plugged in the phone just begins to boot up in order to start charging, but cannot charge until it is booted into the OS and there wasn't sufficient battery to do that, hence the bootloop.
Hey folks, i have a HD2 which isn't turning on. I received a call and it just switched off. Now there is no activity in it at all. No led when connected to a charger. I had MIUI installed on the phone.
The repair people say that the motherboard needs to be replaced which would cost approx 12000INR.
Any way i could revive it back?
Please suggest. Thank you!

You can try the the freezer trick, put the device in a zip lock bag and put it in the freezer for a few minutes and then see if you can turn it on or charge it. You can also take a old USB cable and cut the mico USB end off and strip the wires back then touch the read to the + on the battery and the black to the - on the battery for a minute or two and then try to boot the device. I sorta souds like you were using MAGLDR and the battery died. You can not charge the device while it is off with MAGLDR. So I would try charging the battery first.
Thank you for replying. You're right i was using Magdlr. I'll try what you said

I've got the exact sam prob, the HD2 was using MAGLDR, and now it won't start (except for a few times it did), but I honestly can't figure how - since once it had been charged on an external batery charger, and then it turned on and worked for a while, but now it won't work with a charged battery...because I tried using it with another HD2 phone's battery which also has MAGLDR and which works (even with my phone's battery).
The pins have been changed, and it worked then also for a while I've been said, but it's not working again now.
Any help please?
TIA
P.S. I've tried ziplock...15min...nothing :/ How to try the USB? Which wires should I connect to which pins please?

something like this

but be very carefull, if you have an external batt. charger that would be best

or mini usb, or even an old usb printer cable, with the chunky end, , it doesn't matter which type.
Thanks samsamuel,
Seen the +/- signs on the back of the battery late, after having meassured the voltage, which is 4.14V (should I do the USB charge then even and how long is it safe since my battery powers up another HD2)?
TIA
if teh battery works in another device, then no, theres no point, its not that.
4.14 is fine, i think it goes up to about 4.2/4.3 when full, drops to the low 3.x when drained.
If the freezer trick didn't help either, then its gotta be either hardware, or something totally catastrophic, so if its an option for you, id try JTAG, failing that, id be considering using it for parts, , buying one with a cracked screen perhaps, and swapping your screen into it, ,
dont take my word for it, though, read learn and try things, you never know.
Hi guys! I have a problem with charging my battery in HD2.
From some time it don't wont to charge when system is boted in. However, it is possible to charge it for a little bit in a bootloader (3 color screen). I tried tons of time making task29 or installing differend systems (android, wm and wp7) but the problem is the same on each of them. I tried also wiping HSPL with SD Card method (istalling stock system via sd card) but nothing helps.
I can't figure out what is wrong. I think that battery works because it can be charged in bootloader and charged off.
Please help.

Have you tried other chargers? That's always a simple fix. I have also read of this problem and it ends up being lint in the charging port so check that as well

It might also be battery that is faulty but 90% id say its motherboard :/
Hardware issues.
I also have the same problem. =.=
Worth checking battery pins for good contact & trying another battery & charger to eliminate the basic easy fix hardware issues.
Sounds like could be more serious but always best to test everything & assume nothing in a logical ease of testing/cost approach
Take the battery out and make sure when you place back in the pins are touching. It worked for me
