Hi Guys, i have a strange Problem since a couple of days.
The touch HD turns itself off after some minutes. I have to take out the battery and put it back in, otherwise it will not turn on...
i have:
- deactivated automatic shut down in power settings
- deactivated today timeout
- tried hardreset
- tried another rom (currently dutties final)
no success :-(
i have absolutlely no clue what could cause this and how i can fix it...
help is highly appreciated.
hello there , actually maby its a virus or there is problem in SPL
Try to install again the SPL modified and tell me
best regards
ms4cah
unlikely it has anything to do with SPL. it was fine for months, i had not flashed or installed anything.
it seams dead now by the way. i cannot turn it on again.
i also tried a new battery. it doesnt even charge, no light at the power button. nothing.

Sounds like a warranty claim
I am getting the same problem!! is there anything i can do to fix this? anyone figured out the reason?
I had this sort of problem.
The HD would hang, then switch off, then to get back on I had to remove the battery for a while. Sometimes it worked after a minute, other times I had to leave the battery disconnected for longer.
So I performed a hard reset and it switched itself off during boot (after successfully resetting).
Battery out for a while.
H/R once more. Again crashed during boot but not at the same point as previous.
Tried a different battery with a full charge - same result.
Tried to re-flash a "very popular" custom ROM with USPL. Got to 1% and error. This was because the HD had crashed..
Tried to flash the official HTC ROM and it got to 15% and error. HD crash.
So I have contacted HTC and they are sending a courier to collect it so they can take a look with a view to repairing it.
The last ROM I successfully loaded about 2 weeks prior to the start of my problems was a custom win mo 6.5 rom. As I couldn’t get it to a stable state - I couldn’t flash the official HTC ROM.
I’ve convinced myself it’s a hardware fault rather than any software damage..
Although I fear I’ll be in for some bad news.
mine too
Hi,
I have the same problem.
Mine was doing hard reset and after a day or two the same problem.
Now I cannot turn it on.
I will send it to htc...
Crossing my fingers.
I had the same problem with mine...
While turned on, it automaticly tryed to turn of, as if something was pressing the on/off buttom. Everytime that message for turning it off poped up and I just couldn't control the on/off button anymore.
I tryed everything and nothing worked. It really seemed a hardware and warranty claim issue. However, since I bought it abroad and it does not have warranty here in Brazil, I just decided to sell it (obviously warning the buyer about the issue) and to buy another one (which is working as a charm).
It is a hardware issue, for sure...
So my HD has been away at HTC for nearly a week, and im currently tracking its return journey, due to land back here at some point this morning.
I have had no contact from HTC so its going to be a suprise as to whether anything has been repaired.
My hope was they couldn't turn it on at all - thus replacing the bits n bobs inside, replacing the main board containing my 6.5 ROM.
So for now im hoping "no news will be good news", but I will update this when I have it back.
... I've the same problem...
Hi, I've the same problem. Do you have any solutions?

Just recieved delivery. The service report states:
1. Diagnosis
2. Replace Main Board
3. Function Test
Result
Confirms it was a H/W fault and my "flashing" did not effect the warranty status. That may have been because they couldnt get far enough to confirm so.

Other than a Warranty repair, im afraid not. Try your best to get it back to HTC official software, then report it as no power / cant boot.

Good to know, confirmed h/w issue
i simply deactivated automatic shut down in power settings as mentioned in the first post and unistalled a couple of new programs i had recently installed!!
Not quite sure which of the above worked.. but atleast for now it seems to be working fine!! the screen has not turned off by itself and i have not had to remove battery etc to get it to work again!
I'm not quite sure if the problem is properly fixed but it has been a few days since anything occurred!! so fingers crossed!!
mine was doing this last tuesday, each time i went into my pocket for it, it was turned off, then i hard to do the reset pin or remove the battery, it has been ok since, i just thought, maybe it was me, pushing it in my jeans i might be turning it off.
also using duttys popular 6.5 latest rom, i dont think its fair to blame his rom, as mines ok now, maybe i should reflash it again?? im still waiting for a new version to be released.... JESUS!!! just looked it up to r12, im on r9 .
oh no... no it not..... says to go here, and it will be released here and not on dutty throy???

FYI, Throy is releasing roms exclusively to HTCPedia now, so no future roms will be released on either XDA or www.duttythroy.com
wow!!! i never knew!!!! thats crazy as his own site duttythroy wont be used.
im getting it now, but only 11 when it says 12 is out, either way, i will still flash i love the roms, i will be sure to be on all the site, incase theres another change of heart??
anyway guys i will report if i noticed the shutdown thing happening again with the version. 4mins till downloaded.....
I think theres a couple of different issues here. My own problem was due to faulty parts in the hardware itself. Absolutley nothing to do with any ROM, only reason I mentioned them was because of the invalid warranty possibility.
If your problem was ROM related, Im sure in the relevant ROM thread, there would be many people (everyone) with the same issue. Thats not to say that its not some sort of conflicting software you may have installed after the ROM flash.
Some simple troubleshooting steps:
1. Hard reset - If it still has a problem...
2. Flash Official HTC ROM - If still a problem...
Phone HTC.
All the best, hope you manage to get something to work for you. I know how lost I felt without mine!

Your exactly right. Some people experience similar symptoms which are rom related others have same problem which is hardware related. One can only be fixed by HTC as motherboard problem, other can be rectified by different means without having to send device back for repairs
Hi again,
Today I have received an sms from HTC service informing me that my HD has a circuit problem and they will fix it without any charge.
I have to wait.
Starting today, my touchscreen just doesn't register anything. It's not cracked or damaged at all. It just stopped responding. I can still use my dpad but my phone is extremely limited at this point.
I'm currently running Myn's Warm Eclair: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691174
I really don't want to format my phone to figure out if it's a software problem but does anyone know if this is just a problem with this android build or with android on our phone in general?

It has been a problem for me with some builds. I suggest you to make a backup with some app like Titanium Backup and reinstall Android. Try with different kernels if you still have the problem. Don't worry for the moment!
I have had this problem a few times. I still can't quite figure out exactly what makes it happen but it seems to be something to do with sleep. My solution is to restart and go into NAND then do a backup apps and then quit. something gets woken up in the screen and it starts to work again. No idea why, it just does. Good luck.
So I guess my touchscreen is just dead. I reinstalled android, reflashed my phone for the froyo rom, and I even flashed a windows rom onto my phone but nothing. I even opened my phone to see if it was connected properly to the mobo but all seems right.
On the windows rom, when it does the screen calibration, I can mash the crap out of my screen and I guess it picks up some sort of signal every now and then because the crosshair moved.
If anyone knows anything about this, please reply. I don't really want this to be the end of my vogue. It's been a good 3 years so far!

You may just need a new Digitizer.
Can get them pretty cheap on e-bay - just have to wait since coming international mail.
I am having similar problems. Usually when the phone goes to sleep and I wake it up the touch screen is unresponsive. Only way to get touch to respond is to reboot.
I have tried it on my vogue on both the fresh froyo and experimental fat free froyo using both the 10-9 and 9-29 kernel on nand. I have also used nbh editor to change the panel types (vogue uses auto detect so I changed it to Polaris) and still the same problem. I thought perhaps there was a problem with a program but I have no programs installed right now and the problem still persists.
Does anyone have any suggestions? My phone was working fine up to a few weeks ago and I would hate to be forced to use windows again. I have reinstalled windows and it works fine there so I don't think it is hardware related. It seems something happens when it goes to sleep.
Well there might be a driver issue. Try going back to the stock rom for your device and see if the touchscreen works, if it doesn't work, then it's probably broken. Try opening the vogue and disconnecting and reconnecting and then turning your device back on and test it again. if it still doesn't work, then yea you will have to get a new digitizer.
You can also try using other releases/roms with different kernels.
good luck!! and may your vogue live on!!
Thanks, I've installed a windows rom and the touchscreen has no issue there so it leads me to believe it is not the digitizer, especially because it seems to break when it goes to sleep.
I will try even older kernels and perhaps a donut build to see if the problem still exists.
Try to figure out when things broke for you by trying the kernels that have been released over the past month. Maybe we can isolate the change that broke things for you. Maybe not, but it's worth a try.

Hi! I had this problem, that was the reason why I put back WM. I experienced it using .32. I think it was from 1-Oct-2010 approximately when it started to fail.
IT'S A CONSPIRACY!!!! Last week my screen broke as well. I was running "not so super froyo" and it would work for a second then just be completely unresponsive... needless to say I now have a droid x *fap**fap*
Hi All
Was using SD versions of Android in my HD2 which worked quite well .....decided to make the jump to NAND recently but I'm having a problem with phone calls.
When I make a call out, everything works fine, but when I hang up on the call, the hard buttons on the bottom of the phone all light up but the screen doesn't turn back on.... Only way to get the screen back on is to plug in the USB cable or power adapter or pull the battery and do a reboot!
Have tried a couple of different builds from different chefs and a couple of Radios just in case.
At the moment I've got the following on it:
Radio is 2.12.50.02_2
Android version is 2.2.1
Build is DL DesireZ v3.4 Final (but this problem also happens with CleanDROID V1.31)
Also tried an MTTY Task 29, reload of MAGLDR then re-flash of the NAND in case traces of my previous ROM were still around but that hasn't helped either.
Any ideas?
I seen many threads about same situation. Actually i itself use daily gpc hd2 gingerbread v1.5 with same problem. Sometime help back button (when call ended not at me). Sometime just more light to proximity (or it light) sensor (when inside and put phone with face to some light). Outside i just must turn phone with face to sun or good light then screen wakes up.
I tested many many nand roms. All have same problem.
Tested win 6.5, win 7 and sd version, they works well. That gives confirmation that my proximity (or it light) sensor works well. And finally that something wrong with nand.
Here was discussion that MAGLDR does that. NO.
I started run over net and find solution. Here seems no help for this right now. Maybe just problem ignored because cookers itself dont have this and cant do anything. If you dont have problem then how you can fix it.
On web i found some discussion about kernel problem or smth about this proximity sensor. I cant find it right now again. There was talking about this problem, but no solution.
I thinked about open new thread and invite kernel chiefs to discussion to solve this problem. But today i find your ask. I opened for any test and help that i can give. I dont be afraid to lose my phone if something must go wrong. Phone is just piece of electronic and you can replace parts. But knowledge and experience you cant buy.
Any ideas how to resolve this little bad thing?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes it's a real problem but mine won't wake up no matter how much light.
The only way I can get it to wake up is to plug it in to power, then the screen wakes up.
Is that the same as yours?
I i remember it right i was suprised once too if this happened. I just put my "again dead" phone to charging and its waked up.
If screen is dead and same time connected to pc (i use for managing inside phone androidcommander) then moving over dirs wake screen back too.
But lets look how long my nerves will be good. Today i thinked to move back win 6.5 and sell this bastard.
No don't sell we need to resolve! I'm hoping someone will look at this thread and help us figure out why this is happening. I can't believe we are the only 2 people who have this issue.
Anyone else have any ideas as to why this is happening?
This issue was also on sd versions. So I see nand has not fixxed it. I am running MDJ HD 4.6 and have this issue. Sometimes the light sensor works properly and other times it goes to black screen and gets stuck.
I read somewhere that it might be the hardware itself. Saw a video on youtube also. Seems the european T8585 and telstra T9193 might have poor light sensors. The T-mobile light sensor supposedly does not have this problem.
So I am guessing anyone with this problem does not have the T-mobile USA version??
It could just be drivers too. It is a pain and sometimes I wish I could just disable the light sensor.
Also NAND roms are no better than sd versions as far as bugs. If the sd version has the bugs then so will the NAND version. The build is just installed at a different location.
Yes good point.... the bug will be replicated as it's just where the OS is stored that's different.
I'm thinking it's the hardware as I have this problem on WinMo6.5 too and I have tried various WinMo roms but had the same problem.
Mine is a UK HD2 supplied by O2. Wish there was a fix for it :-( It's a real problem.
PS I ran PhireMOD's Skinny EVO SD Android for a while and didn't have as much as a problem as I have had with the 2 NAND roms I've tried..... if that's any clue? At least with that rom I was able to make calls and hang up and still get the screen back after I hung up (except for the screen going white and washed out which could only be resolved by a reboot). There was still the problem with the screen being on all the time during a call or the screen being black and not coming back on during a call though.
I have these sort of problems too. It's really annoying when you're in a phonecall and you take the phone away from your ear and it takes a few secs to turn on. Also when I'm unlocking it.

At least yours comes back on lol mine stays off for ages and ages and sometimes doesn't come back on at all!
Noticed that if I shine a torch into the proximity sensor that's the only way I can get the thing to turn back on :-( Also noticed the 2 little holes where the prox sensor sits appear dirty/cloudy... not sure how that happened.
I wonder if the prox sensor is busted or if it's just dirty or something? Going to get a T5 Torx and take my phone apart to find out if it's something I can resolve.
Well i had this with rafpignas kernel...i changed to markinuX today and tested it with over 10 calls and it works flawlessly right now
Hmm, are you sure g9650? Seems my guess about kernel was then true. I use gpc pure gingerbread 1.6 with gpc itself made kernel. I go right now replace kernel and test. Results tomorrow.
Took the phone apart yesterday night and uncovered the proximity sensor. Even out of the case it needs a torch/flashlight to shine on it to bring the screen back on :-( I honestly think the proximity sensor hardware isn't working anymore.
I'll try the kernal you suggested though just in case that's what's causing the problem.
Datas0ft let me know if it works for you?
Latz, actually i taked to test markinus extra clean 1.7.1 (right now on it itype this). Had one call before and no changes.
Also i stuck on taking out kernel at this version. Low knowledge. Dont find any help yet on xda. I work on it. If you have hints dont hestitate say.

:-( I was hoping we found a miracle cure! Ok let me flash mine tonight and try it to see if mine behaves any different. Will post back with results... let me know fi anything changes with your phone datas0ft.

Ok. Searched forum. Finded way how to get kernel at some nand. Got MarkinuX kernel and now test. Test will be during whole day tomorrow on different conditions.
For kernel extract and install is this thread very good. Helped and teached me.
marcosxd i taked needed files for you and attached.

Quick question, the zip file you gave me only has two .ko files and zImage while the original rafdroid kernel has like 5 .ko files... what should I do? copy raf's kernel .ko files missing into markinux ones?
Or just pack the zip file using two .ko files? Thanks
I cant ansver. Dont have much knowledge on this. I followed instructions. This taked to me these three files. I installed these.
I finded some problems right now (wifi and gps dont work and my 3g too). This may not happen at kernel side. I have made some changes on rom side. I go replace whole rom and then again kernel. Then i go make final decisions.
I'm having the same problems, you two are not the only ones. This has been really frustrating me lately, and I thought it might have been a problem for only me because I just had the screen replaced. It worked fine in winmo 6.5, now in NAND I'm having some issues. I text a lot more than I actually call, however so it's not that big of a problem for me right now
i have an HD2 with a cracked screen i bought on craigslist. the unlock screen will stop working sometimes, and when i pull the battery and reboot, the home screen sometimes doesn't work. i've heard of these problems before but i'm not sure if this is a software or hardware problem. the previous owner had the phone running on AxLor DF1 XLite WWE. please help!
also i'd like to know how to flash to stock through micro sd, since i don't have a usb cable.
Thanks.

Go to this thread here, this is a thread on flashing from SD card. It has all the info you will need.
Also you can buy a replacement screen and install it. There is a couple of threads here on XDA on how to do this just do a search for them.

thanks, got on the stock T-Mobile rom now, but the touch screen on the lockscreen only sometimes works. would flashing to android fix this? i notice it will unlock sometimes after i press power then give it a few minutes, so i'm not sure if this is hardware or software related, and i'd like to avoid replacing the screen if i can.
EDIT: weird, i read a thread that said i should use the call button to unlock, and after a battery pull and waiting a few minutes, its worked for a bit, so i guess i found a temperary fix....
so now, i was wondering if its possible to boot android from the nand, and boot windows mobile 6.5, wp7, ubuntu, and meego from the sd, or can win mobile 6.5 only be booted from the nand? also, i need spl/hspl to boot all these things right?

You can't have them all. You can have WP7 running from NAND and Android running through SD. Not too sure on the rest though.

I know it would be a pain in the butt and in the wallet too. But it would probably benifit you to replace your screen. But this is a dessision that you will have to make for yourself.
Glad you found a teperary fix!
Yes you will need HSPL and also MAGLD flashed to your HD2 in that order to flash a NAND Andriod ROM. I beleive you can flash HSPL from your SD card, I think the thread I linked covers this. Buy I din't think you can flash MAGLD from your SD card. So you will have to have a USB cable for this. You can go to the HD2 Andriod NAND ROM section here on XDA and do a search for MAGLD and you will find the thread on it so you can double check and see if you can but I really don't think it is possibble. But you will have to have a USB cable to flash Andriod, WP7, MeeGo, and Ubuntu cause MAGDL does not have SD card flashing ability yet but they are working on it though. They are also working on being abale to run Windows Mobile 6.5 from SD card but as of right now it is not possibl, only from NAND right now. Also if you install a NAND Andriod ROM I think you can run WP7 from SD card but don't hold me to that cause I am not 100% sure of that, but if So that isit no other OS from SD card when running a NAND Andriod ROM.

thanks. for now i'll just work on installing android to the nand. i have a question though, will turning off the lockscreen in android possibly fix the touchscreen problem? i've been racking my brain trying to figure this out. i can either hurt my wallet with a screen repair, or i can do a battery pull every everytime i use the phone.. a real pain in the ass... sigh.. at least i got the phone cheap..

You know I can not say for sure if turning off the screen lock would solve your problem. But it sure is worth a shot so I say go for it and see. Also you can use a app like Touch Tools or BsB Tweeks to cut the lock screen off in Windows Mobile. Just do a search here on XDA or do a Google search for them and you will find them I recomend the Touch Tools this is a really great app. It adds a lot of tweeking ability to your HD2. I love it and have been using it for atleast 5 to 6 months now. Anyway if turn off the lock screen with one off these apps and it fixes your issue. Then you will know if you turn off the lock screen in Andriod it should have the same result. Heck if it fixes it you might just keep Windows Mobile ha ha just joking. I would not blame anyone for flashing a NAND Andriod ROM and getting rid of Win Mo. I personaly like Win Mo.
You're best off investing in a USB cable too lol. Your local hardware shop will have them. Its just a basic USB to micro USB cable.
I dont think any amount of tinkering with any OS is going to resolve your touchscreen problem............
The screen is cracked right?? Theres your problem.........
Could be issues with the digitiser as well because of this.
First job, new screen...........
i've been messing with the phone last night, and it seems the problem is related to the end call button. it seems whenever i try to wake up the phone with that button, it will freeze, while using the green button will wake up with no problem most of the time (>20% chance of freeze). it seems the freezing doesn't happen after a certain amount of time, since i left the phone in sleep all night and woke it up in the morning no problem. so in case anyone has the same problem as me and is too cheap to fix it, try only using the end call button when actually calling/putting the phone to sleep.
and where could i get a micro usb cable cheap besides online? i think t-mobile has them but they're like $10+...
it's dead again!
help! (again). the touchscreen is dead after i HAD to use the power button today, and now i can't use the touchscreen at all! i've tried turning the screen on and off like 50 times, tried like 10 battery pulls, but nothing! please help! can i open my phone somehow to get to the end key hardware or something???
earlier today also happened to me this problem, I install several rom a day, I can not go a day without testing new rom, I thought the problem was that, because I found this topic, when I use the button to connect the phone, everything is well, but not always the case that with the off button. Was it any rom that did this damage in some piece of hardware?

Sorry to tell both of you but your problems are hardware related. Member isoDUB yours is most definitly a hardware issue, but it has been a little bit sense you posted that post so I hope you have got your HD2 fixed or are working on getting it fixed. Member Body yours sounds hardware related to cause if you flash another ROM and you still have the problem with your buttons then it is most definitely a hardware issue.
Best option is to send to HTC and see if you can get a new one for free if you are under warranty.
same problem
hi
im not original english speaking so please excuse my bad english.
a few days ago i got the same problem. the display doesn't work when the phone was waked up with the endcall button.
when i woke up the phone with an other button the display worked.
i sended it to htc an they just told me they will not repair it because it is not in the original contition.
i flashed it with the latest original rom from htc but they didn't tell me what is wrong in detail.
i answerd them an asked what is wrong but until now i didn't get an answer.
Hello, I have a similar problem. When you unlock the screen so we jump on the green but some spots that disappear after a while.
Disaster strikes !!! Same prob here !!!
its indeed something with the buttons ... Touch screen is dead ... but sometimes its workin!!
Three months ago ... I changed the case of the HD2 with a new one. The "old"one was full of scratches ...
I think yhat HTC is not gonna accept that ... the "void-label" on the screw is damaged...
What do you think Guys ??
Grtz
every where the htc hd2 screen problem ........... i think that every one who has the htc hd2 facing the screen problem we shopuld start the new thread where we that who has the htc hd2 without any touch screen problem
Have the same damn problem ..once the screen is locked ..its impossible to slide it to unlock ..previously it was working 50% of the time and now it doesnt work at all :-(( ..
Any suggestions ? ...I read alot on the forums and people seem to say that its digitizer related but the imp thing is to note that almost 98-99% of the people having this problem are frequent Android rom flashers ..so does Android have something to do with this and will flashing original stock rom back be the solution ??
I have just installed WP7 and when it started the touch screen doesnt want to work at all. On everything it said it was installed successfully and i did every step in the guide -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356833.
Buttons works.. i can volume+ and - and i can also lock the phone but due to not working touch i cant work with it..
Anyone? Its not broken .. it was working great on the Android before the flash. Please i really need to know what to do.
Edit: I even tried installing v4 but still doesnt works.... :x
Im really sorry for triple posting but this is getting annoying. All day im trying other and other ways, flash back to WM6.5 .. TOUCH SCREEN WORKS ITS NOT GOD DAMN BROKEN ... I've send a PM to the developer of the ROM, guess what no answer.. i dont want to get back to WM6.5 .. I've used to flash 4 NAND androids (the best ones) each one of them in the main functions shows at least 2 bugs which are annoying like freezing display or my favorite - i cant hang up... i posted a thread in the Q&A Android forum about this, again no answer... I ONLY NEED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO to get my touch screen responding and working on my god damn WP7 so i can stop getting freezing stupid display and to be able to god damn hang up.. IS IT that hard!?!?!? Oh the best one is - i cant post to the main topic of the rom because according to the forum rules the newbies are idiots and they cant recognize any bugs in the rom so they can report it!... Jesus Christ give me a f***ing answer how to fix my touch screen driver or something or whatever i want my god damn phone working........
Hello I have the same problem, I went back to Windows Mobile 6.5 but the problem remains !!!!!! The touch does not work anymore!! How do you solve this problem??http://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/mad.gif
Hello you some news? I hope you do not have to buy the new touch screen!
For the original poster, I have no idea, sorry. For the second poster, it definitely sounds like your digitizer is broken. Have the same problem with my HD2. You can get them for cheap on Amazon, but replacing it takes some skill. Don't know where you live, but most repair shops will do it for around $50 here in the states.
Same here. i tried the YukiXda/Xboxmod Rom and after a reboot the touchscreen stops working. Will report to the devs. do not worry my friend
Hey darky, did you try installing the old HTC drivers on your WP7? Not sure if you did, or if that particular rom uses the newer drivers, but that could potentially help out. I found the old drivers in the Xboxmod cab update thread. Don't know if the rom you're using supports cabs or not, I've only used xboxmod & yukis rom. Search that thread, would post a link but using my phone at work.

Same as you, over here. As soon as I updated to SP1 & rebooted, no more touchscreen! But mine wouldn't work in any OS, including WM6.5. So I think my digitizer just had bad timing for me, but who knows could be rom related.
Thank you all for taking time to answer!
@lorispari No i couldn't get it fixed at all, your problem sounds different than mine because my touchscreen works with other OS without problem.
@JonnieLasVegas I haven't tried, i only tried different radio version and reinstall of the HSPL... though i dont know how much that could help me because im still new with the smartphones... as far as i see this HTC HD2 is really great but has a lot of factory bugs in hardware and software side (if i could say it that way). Even with stock WM 6.5 it had a lot problems. Anyway when i saw the thread with all the known bugs that WP7 has... i just clicked the HTC Leo: HD2 category and switched back to Android ICS which was another mistake because i forgot its still buggy as hell so im flashing atm to Gingerbread however in few months im selling this phone and getting HD7, hope till then there will be a category for him (or it may have.. i havent checked)
Thanks again for the answers! Appreciate it!
My screen was unresponsive twice. Turns out digitiser was broken. So had to flash to stock rom and send to htc for repair
If you need a fix, pm me, found one
