i restarted my pc many times but problem still remains
my HD2 sync perfectly with HTC Sync.
two days ago i flash perfectly Android in my HD2. but today i cant do anything:s
Put your phone into bootloader mode and connect to pc. Does serial change to usb once plugged in? If not try moving to another usb port on your pc , preferably one at the rear and allow the drivers to be fully installed. Once you get usb to show on screen you can then try again.

Thanks. how do i put my phone into bootleader mode?
Switch off, hold in vol down button and switch on. Keep vol down pressed in until get to multi-coloured screen. In the bottom section you should see the word "serial" - plug in to pc and this should change to "usb".
Switch phone off, remove battery for min 5 min. Put battery back.
Push down button "volume down" and keep pressed. Dont release it.
Now keeping volume down putton pressed press down power on switch. Keep pressed to this time when you see on your tricolor screen.
Release buttons.
You are on bootloader mode.
Install MAGLDR.
When phone shuts down on reboot keep pressed power button, dont release until you see MAGLDR menu (10 menu points if i right).
Install you preferred nand rom how rom guide tell.
After install phone reboots.
Enjoy your fresh android rom install!

[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] 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

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!!!

Hi,
Try installing the ROM provided by 'voluptuary' (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1528984 - [ROM] Clean ROM - Stock UI - RTM 8858 Base - Focus v1.3 - 7.8 Official).
Edit: I do not know if you will be able to get back your data. I am using 'voluptuary's ROM and it is pretty clean.
I reverted back to original ROM 2010
Buddy i reverted back to 2010 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131022

I had the same problem while flashing one of the custom ROMs and whatever I did, the device used to get stuck on Samsung logo screen - blink for a while and turn off and again the Samsung Logo appeared. It would not enter Download mode nor MAGLDR mode. Here is what I did and it worked, I do not know if it will work for you.
Try the following:
1. Check whether you can enter Download Mode - (Vol Up + Camera + Power).
2. If Download Mode appears select Format and Format your device.
3. After Formatting, again enter Download Mode and install MAGLDR (provided in Voluptuary's ROM folder) and flash Voluptuary's ROM (3.10a).
If you are unable to enter Download Mode try this:
1. If you have installed MAGLDR in your mobile earlier, check whether you can enter MAGLDR mode (Vol Down + Camera + Power).
2. Once in MAGLDR mode you can install the ROM 3.10a mentioned above.
For me both did not work initially and here is what i did:
1. Turned off the phone, and connected the USB cable to the device and connected it to my PC - left it for a while (may be - 20 - 30 mins).
2. Samsung Logo was still blinking.
3. Disconnected the USB, turned off the device (Removed the battery and re-inserted). Pressed in held Vol Up + camera and then connected the USB cable, the Samsung logo appeared again and out of frustration i pressed Power button (Vol Up + Camera was still being held) couple of times repeatedly and voot... the phone entered Download mode. First thing I did was to format and re-install the MAGLDR and I proceeded flashing the ROM and now my phone works fine. Don't know what was the main cause yet.
I hope the miracle works for you too.
behind every miracle there is a reason
Tried everything u said...didn help!!!...
Is there someone talented:silly: enough to resolve this issue?

[Q] MAGLDR not loading

Some months back I installed Dynamics ROM v2.1.
Yesterday I wanted to flash the newest version 2.2 on my Omnia 7.
But I'm unable to enter the MAGLDR screen with volume down + power button + camera button.
It gives a faible vibration when it tries to enter the MAGLDR menu but the Samsung Omnia 7 logo just keeps standing there.
After a few seconds the logo disappears and reappears.
When I release the buttons the phone just loads the currently installed ROM.
Same with the Download mode; Although when holding volume up + camera button, then inserting the usbcable I'm able to enter download mode.
Anyone experienced this before?

Thanks Anaheiim,
I managed to install the MAGLDR v2 again with updating samsung usb drivers.
Altough it works, the only way I can get into the menu is:
- remove battery
- insert battery again
- hold volume down + camera button
- attach usbcable to phone
Then after pressing the back button I managed to get into the MAGLDR menu.
Without the USB cable I cannot get it to work, but at least it is working again.

I will give your ROM a go aswell. I think I did try one of your beta versions some time ago.
Can't recall the reason for switching back to dynamics, though.
I have sorted out what the exact issue is, the camera hardware button needs to be pressed really hard.
It seems to not always register when I press it.
