[Help] Phone won't boot - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hello,
I still got Windows Mobile on my HD2, so I wanted to start putting MAGLDR on it...
...so I started following these steps:
1. Power off your phone.
2. Press volume down button (don’t let go) and power on your phone.
3. It will load into bootloader.
4. You should get ‘Red, Green, Blue and White’ screen with SPL-2.08.HSPL.
5. Take off the battery.
6. Power on your phone.
= etc

The phone doesn't boot anymore after completing step 5.
Is my phone dead already? I didn't do anything with it yet.
Also no red light when plugging in the USB cable...

No reason for that to happen unless you have a bent battery pin!!

So you cant even get into the multicolor screen?

[Q] how to update magldr?

i have search but cant find an answer that works. please help!
You might want to check those glasses: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
ive seen this, but when i go to usb flasher and confirm it shows Wait USB... and wont connect.
you need to "run it as admin"
i tried running as admin, and am no longer getting stuck at wait USB..., but when i try to update magldr, i got an error 264 after it tries to verify the phone information
Your phone is in the bootloader menu ?
the one with the 3 collors ?
if not shut your phone down pres vol down and then power your phone on while pressing the vol down button.
Your computer sould now find a alternative driver for your HD2 if not install the one that is floting around here somewere. And try again.

This was pretty simple way to upload from 1.10 to 1.13
I don't know why others have given confusing solutions..
Thanks
I'd add my 2 cents - run UPDATE UTILITY from drive C: (had that issue myself and spent some time on it)
to summarise 'flash magldr from bootloader, not from usb flasher'.

[Q] Cant go back on 6.5 Stock Rom

Hi everybody,
First, sorry for my poor english, i try to explain the best i can.
My HD2 is on one of the first Phone 7 release 01/2011 ago.
I want go back on stock rom, cause recently, i've a bug, my phone can't boot. It stay on Phone7 logo and next reboot.
Without my SD card, the phone boot, but it's in english, and My computer recognyze it on " Windows Phone7 " with yellow exclamation point.
I've tried to flash 6.5 stock rom with usb cable, but it's said it can't connect the device.
To go on flash screen, i push reboot+power off+ vol down button. Next on emagldr 1.13 screen, i select "5.usb flasher".
Next i can check on my computer's now recognyzed as " Microsoft USB Sync", but the stock rom still not abble to work:" no phone response, check usb cable"
I'm sure that my usb cable is working.
Any suggestion ?
You might try going into the normal bootloader, not into MAGLDR.
Push both vol. down and power buttons until the device starts into the multicolor bootloader screen, then connect the USB cable.
If you didn´t change your PC, it should now be able to connect via ActiveSync.

Thanx for your answer, i think the bug is here i cannot enter normal tri-color bootloader, it doesnt work :s
When i do power+ vol down until the device start, i first have a blank Htc screen maybe 1sec, and quikly next boot menu from MAGLDR 1.13
However, i'm sure that my Vol Down button work, it works on magldr menu.
try pulling out the battery, then hold down the two volume buttons, as hard as you can safely get away with, pop the battery back in whilst still holding buttons down, if it doesnt start tap the power button. keep holding down the buttons through out the whole process until it comes on.
if you can read the content of your sd card in pc then you can flash WinMo6.5 rom via sd card.... :
- go to HTC website, download appropriate rom for your HD2 with your s/n
- extract NBH file from downloaded ROM (can be done with 7-zip, Winzip...)
- rename extracted IMG file to LEOIMG.NBH
- copy that file to SD card
- boot your HD2 with SD card while holding VOL DOWN
- you should see a flash menu appear, press VOL DOWN again (if i remember.. ) and you'll flash 6.5 rom
- that's it, you'll have new instance of WinMO 6.5, with stock SPL, without MAGLDR and ANY trace of WP7.-..
oh, if you dont see anything on your SD card or you cant copy to it, it is locked and you have to format it either with some utility or in a Nokia N, E series phone... I know for a fact that N79 works
this should do the trick...

huh, must be that i'm blind missed it completely
Thx for taking time to help me,
So, if i push vol up and down, i 've a screen, next the screen loading wph 1,2,3,4 Go.
I read on it "This operation will 1.delete all your personal data, and reset all setting to manufacturer default. 2. Calculate CRC checksum. Press Voldown to restore manufacturer default, or press Vol Up to get CRC, or press other keys to cancel".
But,
Nothing happend if i press vol down, or volUp or other buttons :s
Maybe we've to try another way to get into bootloader, i think my poor batterie level is bugging the bootloader.
So, I known that we can't acces bootloader via windows.
I'm on Seven x64, my hd2 is recognyzed as a phone7 Device, with a yellow "!".
If i launch HSPL 4, with administrator right, and XP SP2 compatibility level, it can't acces via USb. " no response".
Any suggestions ? May i change the driver?
right, well that proves the buttons are working, i think its just a case of not having them held in at the right time
pop the battery out, hold down the vol down button on its own and keep it held down, put the battery back in and if it doesnt restart tap the power button.
dont let go of the vol down button
Yep, i've done this maybe 30 or 40 times, no way, no bootloader.
I4ve found a thread that explain to fullu charge the battery, remove it and wait 24H before, do the operation ( vol down, putt battery still vol down, push power stil vol down) No way, this doesn't work :s
So i've order a new battery, maybe it'll resolve the problem, i hope. See when it arrive.
Oh dear, well if you definitely cant get in to bootloader and the keys do work then that's a problem, I doubt a battery will fix it but id be interested in knowing if it does work, good luck! Is been reading quite a bit about fixing devices via the wee metal points inside devices, I wonder I the points inside the hd2 will allow this...
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I'm not sure i've understand all your reply Dazza, are u suggesting to check the 3 pin connector baterry on my HD2 ?
If it's this, i've already check this, the 3 pin are good, and i've put a graphyte electrical dust on it to improve the contact.
Nope, I mean if you pop the battery cover off there are 3 metal connectors next to the sim card, it seems on some devices people have found similar points and managed to connect the device to a serial port on a pc, then had direct access to the device bypassing the bootloader. I don't think anyone done this for the hd2 yet but apparently this will fix a completely bricked device
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Ok ! Maybe if the new battery won't resolve, i'll try something like that
Its complicated an as far as i know its not been done for the hd2, im not even sure that's the correct points but its a possibility. There are another 2 points on the opersite side to the volume buttons under the battery cover.

[Q] Cannot acces Tricolor screen. Stuck at in MAGLDR

Long story short, I was attempting my second flash. I followed the steps before and everything was going fine. Now right before i open CWM to install android the MAGLDR ( which is version 1.13 ) gets stuck at "123456GOGOGO".
Now i thought maybe i would start my proccess over but I cannot acces the tricolor screen. I wasnt able to do this in the beginning of my proccess either, when i pulled up my HSPL program on my desktop my computer entered the tricolor screen on its own and I proceeded from there.
Basically i have looked around and have found some ways out of the GOGOGO problem, yet I cannot acces the Tricolor screen using hardware buttons so I am stuck. And its not a hardware issue. In MAGLDR the Vrockers work fine and before I did anything the rockers were working fine in Windows 6.5.
Any Ideas? I have a feeling i got a pretty nice paperweight now.
the normal way to enter the tricolor screen is to turn the phone off then hold the volume down button and momentarily hit the power button.
Also, To keep from getting to the 123456 GOGOGO hold the power button while it is booting normally and you will get to the MAGLDR menu and there you can go to the AD Recovery and flash a new rom.

pull your battery,
put it back in,
hold down volume and power button,
and theres your tricolor screen
True i know about to Volume Down and power key to enter Tricolor, but for some reason with my phone that does not access the Tricolor, tried it many times.
Holding the power button while it booted made no difference.
*******I followed these steps for flashing my rom:*****
First, you need your files!
HSPL4
MAGLDR 1.13
Clockworkmod Recovery
Download a ROM of your choice, I prefer Hyperdroid
Unzip only the first 3 files, and place the ROM zip on your SD card.
So, here we go!
Remember to back up all of your contacts and any data stored on the phone that you want to keep, because you will be wiping windows off ENTIRELY.
HSPL4-
Plug in your phone.
Right click the HSPL4 file and select "Run as Administrator"
Go through the screens, then when it's connecting to your phone your phone will go into bootloader (red, blue, and white screen)
Select HSPL 2.08 when it comes up, hit next. Let it work.
It'll popped up saying "We hacked it!", and you'll see it on your phone. Click yes, then ok and you're done with this step! Phone will restart.
MAGLDR 1.13-
After phone's restarted, go to the MAGLDR folder, right click "ROM Update Utility", and Run as Administrator.
Checkmark the necessary boxes to continue through steps. Then click "Update", then click next through screens.
Once it starts updating ROM image, it taks about 2 minutes. Then click finish.
Phone will reboot into MAGLDR.
Navigate MAGLDR using the volume up and down keys. Use the green button to select (you may have to click twice).
(At this part in the video I uploaded the ROM zip, I'm assuming you already loaded it though, so skipping on).
Flash Clockworkmod_150
Scroll down on MAGLDR to option 5 "USB Flasher". Don't select it yet.
On your computer, go to the Clockworkmod folder, right click the DAF file and run as administrator.
Click next until it gets to waiting for USB.
Now press the green button to put it in the mode.
Text will start to appear on the phone screen, and the Clockworkmod flasher will do its work.
Once done, click finish, and MAGLDR will reboot. It may say something like "kernel fail", it's normal, don't worry about it.
Scroll down to number 8 "AD Recovery", select it.
It'll say Go Go Go Go, and then you'll be in Clockworkmod Recovery!.
****************************************************
BUT! at this point i get stuck in GOGOGO and i have to remove battery.
I JUST got this phone and really want to atleast get it back to Windows Mobile so i can restart my flash.
read the link in my signature...i was there and few of the folks succeeded after completing the process
Hoping it wouldnt come to this but looks like i dont have a choice, hopefully I get a try your method out tomorrow since the success rate looks promising, Ill get back with the results!
Try to reset your phone. Push the red little button on the back near the SD card
I have the HD2 open and have removed the flex cable at the bottom of the phone yet when i connect USB it auto boots so i have to power it down and to do that i have to connect flex cable. once i have the cable connected i power down then i hold the volume button and before i can restart the phoen autoboots from the USB being plugged in so im in a loop.
But i cant boot without the USB being in so Im in a pickle. Again

Try this:
- Hold down the vol_down button and don't let go.
- connect the usb, don't let go of the vol_down button
- should go into bootloader
- now let go of the button.
Nope that didnt work either, any OTHER reason my phone wouldnt acces the Tricolor screen? Ive tried everything 100 times.

[Q] Black Screen and wont turn on. Did I brick it?

So I got a stock HD2 from my bro today and decided to put Nand Android on it.
1. I first loaded HSPL 2.08 via HD2TOOL KIT. Everything worked perfect.
2. Then I installed MAGLDR also via HD2TOOL KIT. Got the MAGLDR menu and thought everything was cool. Then I proceeded to shutdown via the last item on the MAGLDR Menu.
3. The HD2 shut itself off. That's when I proceeded to try to turn it back on and got nothing but black screen.
-----so my HD2 right now:
1. Slight vibrate when I long press power button.
2. Stays on black screen with no changes.
3. Cannot get into Tri-color HSPL screen(vol down+pwr).
4. Will not charge
5. When connected to my windows 7 PC, it detects as qualcomm device.
Tried pulling battery, pressing soft reset(no action), Pressing vol up+down+ pwr for hard reset (no action).
Is my hd2 bricked? How is it possible that I bricked it by installing magldr via hd2tool kit?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks guys
//edit: I made a video of what I'm referring to. http://youtu.be/uTPNokbVGus

No joke, im gonna say your screen is shot, especially after seeing its shattered. Lol. It honestly sounds like its booting up and working properly. Try putting it in bootloader and plugging it into your computer, like push vol dwn + pwr and hold it for 30 seconds or so. Then see what windows see's it as. It honestly appears to be working (from your video) just that youre not getting and display. If it were bricked, i dont think it would power up or vibrate.
Try opening it up and checking the cables inside to see if they are alright
Thanks for the help guys! I ended up leaving the battery out for 10 min. Put it back in. and everything was back to normal. phew!!!

Redmi 2 pro super bricked, help me!

last night I was playing with my redmi 2 pro and bricked it. What I did with was idiotic. I will describe the incident in depth.
My mobile was running on miui 8 6.7.21(lollipop) but I was having some issue with it, so I wanted to use a custom rom named XOSP. I know that this rom doesn’t work on lollipop bootloader but still I flashed the rom and obvious result is I got boot loop. I could still have fixed that just by flashing fastboot rom but instead of doing that I boot my mobile into fastboot mode and flash the emmc_appsboot.mbn via cmd with fastboot command then I reboot the device. now my device keeps vibrating, I mean if I try to power on my device by pressing and holding power button it starts vibrating in a loop. If I hold volume down and power button it vibrates 13 times, then stops for 1 or 2 second, in this pause if release power button and volume button phone stops vibrating. By the way no led light up or no light in display.
I have connected the mobile with pc but nothing happend, even I can’t find my device in device manager. I have all the drivers and mi flashtool installed and Driver Signature Verification
is disabled in my pc. I have tried to connect the device with battery without battery with volume button pressed but nothing happens. I even tried the resurrection method by connecting to point with wire but still nothing happens it.
Bro this is my only mobile and there is no xiaomi customer care in this country you are the only hope. I can’t buy another device within 7-8 months, so please help me to bring the device back.
Test point
Did this test point test point method not work for you?? -
Quick guide:

- Connect your phone to your PC via USB
- Start MiFlash and make it all settings
- Set the phone battery
- Hitting, pressing "Flash" button
- Flash stuck on Attempting to connect Device - do not panic.
- It is necessary to remove the connection with the points and reconnect to the PC with the battery in the phone.
- The installation process will continue.
- As a result, the phone is loaded.
