HI all.Already five days I got home the phone with China's navy much I enjoyed it, but I just had a great sense of helplessness. From the first day I have with this phone problem: after about five minutes of operation to stop responding touch screen or soft reset helping jse since I do not even hard reboot (press and hold volume up button + camera and then use the stylus to do reset). So I excluded the battery for about 5 minutes after that time I re-inserted the battery into the device and turned on him when everything started to work so I found an item MASTER RESET and then I made it proceeded normally, but up to the display settings when I finally managed to set the display (approximately on 10 attempts!) and again the phone worked well. then I try to delete the original touch Flo, but unfortunately it did not too. when the device is put in stand by mode and turn on the device after the display was not functioning again. Then I thought to try different combinations of key presses to obtain a hard reboot. Finally, I managed to find kobinaci functional buttons: I dragged the button at the same time receiving a call (GREN), and click the camera and I have soft reset then whole screen changed color to blue and make the hard reboot, unfortunately, I stopped at the display because the touch screen does not respond anything! Did not even remove the battery! Please ask for help, please
Do you use MIO 350 with this device but I never had the slightest problem and to use non-original rom

I apologize for my English using Google translator
i think the clone rom is corrupted
infact i really dont think clone model will even let you update the rom too
it could also be cause of damaged Hardware
Yes it seems you're right. It looks at the failure of hardware
thx.
hello there. for you and anyone else with china htc problem this is the solution for it.
go to this page and download the IMG file called "update.img" from this link
then follow this steps.
1. Format your HTC memory card (Micro SD card), so it will be clean.
2. Move the update.img (you already downloaded from the site) to root directory of your Memory card.
3. Press Volume Up button on your htc and while keeping it pressed , press the reset button.
You should get the blue screen telling the update being downloaded. Wait for a while and it will tell that Update is successfull and your phone will be rebooted.
THis is it.

This I have already tried, but without success. The combination of pressing volume up and press the soft reset using stylus on my device does not work!
I only managed to make hard reset but it was an interesting combination of a call button (green) and the camera button and then using the stylus, I made hard reset the whole screen changed color to blue . On my device, which was served on the operating system was installed WM 6.1
These Chinese guys are really smart. First they invented 2-sim IPhone, now Elf... Keep going people...
Today, I wrote that my phone is defective. So I have to send him to HONG KONG. When I receive a repaired or new I know how it turned out
Anyone tried to install Onyx Rom on this device?
So yesterday I was a new HTC touch (chinese clone) and everything is still fine

If you are using Windows vista or windows 7, you need to have Windows mobile device centre from the Microsoft website installed.
Yes, I have the activeSync installed in my pc, but it doesn't recognizing my phone. I'm using Windows XP. Any suggestion to solve my problem?
Thanks!

How would I know from that picture? They copied the entire bloody device and installed WM6.1 on it, they didn't call it HTC on the front to avoid getting their arses sued or customs stopping their product, I can bet you the internals are not in any way related to HTC, what is the sense coming here with inane questions?? You already know you don't have the genuine HTC product, you knew it the minute you bought it, you still want to ask members of this forum if you have the real deal?

Update: According to info from Cotulla, MAGLDR does not initialize the touch screen since it doesn't have touch input. WinMo or Android (linux kernel) initializes the touch screen. The failures I'm seeing in Android NAND builds must be due to bug in those builds. I've just downloaded 14 different NAND builds (clockwork and not) to test out again. I'll report results later.
See Cotulla's post on the matter here. Thanks for all the help on the matter to everyone.
Update 2: Here is the link to my post testing a handful of builds and what I found.
Note: Please take the insults elsewhere. I'm trying to actually get some help and offer it. I never said MAGLDR caused any damage to my device. It's a simple bug which once pointed out can be researched and fixed.
The work the DarkForcesTeam has done is amazing! We're talking thousands of hours of work collectively. Some commercially available products don't receive such dedication. I just want to try to help out as best as possible to make it an even better product.
When I use MAGLDR, my touch screen becomes over-sensative. It'll randomly select parts of the screen as having been touched when they're not, like a "ghost hand" was using the device..
It is not a bad digitizer. It is not a hardware defect. It is a problem with MAGLDR. I've confirmed this existing with versions 1.11 to 1.13. The problem only exists when using MAGLDR. If WinMo is used, problem goes away.
Here's what I did:
1) Task 29
2) WinMo 6.5
3) Ran an Android ROM from SD (Copes AOSP SD HD2 GB232/CM7 A2SD at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898831
Everything is fine. Screen is incredibly precise.
4) Task 29
5) MAGLDR 1.13
6) Change SD build to boot from MAGLDR instead of HARET
7) Boot up, everything comes up fine.
8) Screen goes crazy.
Since I didn't change the build I was booting, and only changed MAGLDR, there should have not been any touch screen issues.
9) Task 29
10) WinMo 6.5 reinstalled
11) Change SD build back to boot from HARET
12) Boot the Android SD build
13) Screen is very precise once again.
Does anyone know if the DarkForcesTeam (DFT) has commented on this issue before? Are they working on it? Are they even aware of it?
Has anyone else had any issue like this?
I'm using one of the first HD2s to come out for T-Mobile in the US.

I do not know whether this will work or not. But try a NAND build with SENSE in it. Sense has a function of "Calibrate your Screen". Try and recalibrate your screen.
I know for sure the build "imilka's Vision Sense v3.0 (HD2Z)" has this feature. The link for this build is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898708
I hope that resolves your issue.
My touch screen stopped working during windows phone 7 and i cant figure out a reason why. Im running magldr 1.12
It might be a mgldr booting SD build issue, I've been using cyanogenmod 7 android 2.3 nand for a month without a single issue..

When I use a pure NAND build, the problem is there too.
Anytime I use MAGLDR, it happens.
I don't like Sense, but I'll give the one you recommended a try later tonight.
havent had the issue either.. BUT!!! cause its winter here whenever i come from outside and i use my phone i get random presses on the screen cause its wet, when i wipe it off it just behaves..
Alright... my phone just died
Had the setup that you can see on my signature, and touchscreen just stopped responding randomly. First it was once or twice a day, now its like every other time that the screen is sleeping and I try to wake it up.
I did Task29, flashed official WinMo radio, and now the problem still exists. Every other time that the phone goes to sleep - i press any button, the screen lights up, but like the touchscreen function just wont work.
I know for sure that I am not the first, second or even tenth person that has this problem after running NAND-android. Maybe this should be put on the android development thread, so people wont break their phones.
I have no idea why is this happening, but I know that its time for a new phone. Hopefully T-Mobile will give me a new phone, which I can sell and get a native android phone. I hate windows, the reason that I got this phone was the screen size, which no other android phone had on t-mobile back when I got it.
So, one more time
PEOPLE, MAGLDR WILL CORRUPT YOUR TOUCHSCREEN IF YOU USE IT
With that said - I would like to thank everyone that made android on HD2 possible, and specially cotulla, his team, mdj and hastarin, I had a blast using it You guys ROCK!!
Edit: After flashing winmo - I kept getting problems for the first 1hr.
Now it seems that freezing is gone on Win Mo.
Will update later.

I had my touchscreen do that and just stop working BEFORE magldr even came out. A person I know who never hacked or did anything to his phone had this problem. It's a hardware defect and it's just coincidence that it broke while you had magldr on your phone.
not again...
if MAGLDR makes those weird things to your phone then DON'T USE IT!!!
I have been using MAGLDR since it came out. EVen flashing a lot of builds everyday to test but never had any issues with the touchscreen.

Same, I've flashed well over 25 times and my Touchscreen hasn't had any problems.
MAGLDR is safe, end of story.
Confirmed? Really? Because you think it happened to you?
This is anecdotal, and it is definitely not concrete in any way. This is pure FUD, nothing more. You should consider thinking before you post ridiculous claims that something has been "confirmed."
This has happened to ONE person on ONE phone, and pretty much everybody else is telling you that you are wrong. Does that sound confirmed to you?
It annoys me that you would smear somebody else's fantastic work because your phone had a freak accident. Go blame the government or something, just stop blaming magldr. Thanks.
Buy a WinMO 6.5 phone stick to WinMO6.5 if you want it to work as intended by manufacturer.
If you want to tinker, then be prepared to tinker it to its death.
If you can't afford a new phone, don't mess with it.
If you can't be without a phone for even 1 day, don't mess with it.
If you want to blame, then blame yourself. You are just messed up.
Danation and hd2k10, I'm not smearing anyone. My phone is fine. There is a bug in MAGLDR. One I'm sure the DarkForces Team can fix if someone can provide some good feedback. Read what I posted again. I'm asking to help DFT solve this software bug. Not saying it's bad.
And I did confirm the problem only exists when using MAGLDR. It runs fine on most of the phones, but there are others aside from myself who have had problems with it. We would love to see MAGLDR working perfectly and I personally encourage anyone who it works for to continue using it. I wish I could use it and want to do everything I can to make that a reality.
psykick5, did you try flashing a WinMo ROM or Android SD build to see if your screen returns to normal?

Maybe you should read around and see that its not ONE person on ONE phone?
Also, I have flashed many many times, on HD2 and other devices, the fact of the matter is that it happened. Its not just the OP, its not just me, there are plenty of posts in here, saying that exactly the same thing happened to them /just search and you will see/.
Also, I would hate if someone is talking bad about someone elses fantastic work, and this is why I thanked everyone that helped getting android on our HD2s. There is no disrespect, I was just trying to warn other people that this has happened, and not once or twice. The fact that it didnt happen to you - means nothing It wasn't happening to me either, and I even wrote an angry comment to one of the people that was complaining a while back, and ha, guess what happened today
I agree, that probably "confirmed" is not the write word in here, but what we are trying to do, is just warn other users, AND DEVELOPERS so they can look into it, what if the problem is with MAGLDR? Hopefully its not, but thats a big coincidence. What if by some way its overheating a chip or something? You never know, since you are not a developer, I'm don't think that you can be 100% sure about something that is not open source, and you can't see how its made or what it does to the device.
So cool down, and if you can't help - there is absolutely no need to post negative comments.
Thank you,
Tony.
Edit: This is not for you only, its for all the other negative comments that are before yours. And after yours Y'all need to chill out, we are here asking for help. I have donated to a good amount of developers in here, and I am not trying to disrespect any of them, as I said in my previous post. I appreciate their work, but as far as I'm concerned, and the few other guys before me - there is a bug in MAGLDR, and it would be nice if Cotullas team can take a look at it.
Must be a T-Mobile problem. I don't have it. Sorry for you tho, wish I could help.
I have EU HD2 and noticed same problems. Not all time and can say that i think its not MAGLDR problem. More NAND roms side. You ask why.
Tested many roms, not one. No, i dont go say these are bad. just tryed find wich works best for me.
With win 6.5 and win 7 roms i dont seen this problem but with android nand roms yes. Tested custom win 6.5 + android sd too. With that siutation dont had these problems.
Why i try here too is that i think its clued with another problem too, described on this hd2 forum on diffrent places. One is this thread.
Also i have read on some NAND roms thread that rom cooker are increased screen sensitivy or smth. Cant find right now it but if i remember it then i go back and post link.
Not all this sh1t again.
IF there was a "bug" in magldr for TS then it would affect the MAJORITY not the MINORITY.
Also the title of this thread is retarded, you havent "confirmed" a bloody thing other then your ability to presume something and then jump to a wrong conclusion.
EVEN if there is a bug would be a very small one and not one that DFT should waste their time on atm.
your understanding of a bug is that it shows up on the majority of a system? that's utter bull****! sorry.

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 ??
hey guys, trying to do my first upgrade to get win 7 on my very slow buggy hd2, i am following the guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971478
and i am stuck on the first step, i have checked the SPL version, 1.42.00 i think it was, had phone on, connected up the usb, then downloaded and ran HSPL2_Run from my pc, and it fails on the usb connect, stuck on what to do
Edit>
I have now rebooted phone, held down the volume key and entered the coloured screen, connected usb, says usb at the bottom of the screen, and re ran the program, still no joy
Edit>
I have now tried using a different file on the link HSPL and i get past the USB connect and get a large loading bar but then get another error

Can't speak for anyone else's guides but this YouTube tutorial with links to the needed files was the one I used and it works perfectly...
hey mate, thanks for the reply, i spent a good hour trying all different things and doing them over and over and all of a sudden it worked, done all the things on the video, and now i have win 7 on my phone, i am sooo pleased with my self lol
only thing is my sd card is 2gig so will need to buy a bigger one when i got some cash, when i get a bigger one can i just use the pc, drag and drop the files on the card to the pc and then back onto the bigger card, or is all the needed files saved on the phone?
cheers
I think I did read something somewhere about someone using a partition tool to do something similar, but for all practical purposes you should assume a hard reset is required to allow WP7 to format and set up the card properly.

Ywe drag and drop will work with photos, videos, documents, and etc. Or you can use copy and past too.
As far as you putting the new card in I think all you have to do is put the SD card in your HD2 and then boot it up. I think it will be like the first time you booted because WP7 uses the SD card for it's internal memory so it will have to format your new card with RAID and place what info it has to place on it. Atleast that is what I have read, I do not use WP7.

It won't. There is no real file explorer for WP7 and I don't believe the filesystem is readable outside of WP7.
I believe you will also need to reflash WP7 to have the card work effectively in the OS.

You may be right, but I thought that you could still use drag and drop or copy and paste if you use the little USB mass storage hack for WP7. But I have never used WP7 on my HD2 so what do I know.

You can to some degree, but it's not as simple as good old WM and WP7 will most likely rename all of the files to add further complication. For a noob, best advice is to expect a hard reset
Well after a day at work, last night i was loving the win 7 on my phone, now i hate it....
Got so many issues with it,
1. Randomly reboots itself every 10 mins or so everytime, all day long and when it does it goes into a sort of safe mode with none of my settings saved, themes etc, and i have to reboot 2+ times to get my settings back, then it goes again after 10mins
2. when screen is locked for a few mins, when i go to unlock it and activate screen nothing happens, then the phone reboots.
3. During all these problems, every other time all the apps stop working, dont load up, reset fixes, not always.
4. Battery dies within an hour os so from full
Used [LEO_70]BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA-HD2_WP7_V4_(13.Apr) rom
any others anyone can cecommend or maybe even Android?
Also how do i install a new Rom, do i just run in on the 5th option of Magldr or do i need to delete it off first then install the new one? cheers

Your issue most likely isn't WP7 - which is normally quite stable - but an incompatible SD card. I'd suggest you bring forward your plans to get a bigger card - have a read around (there are several threads) to see which flavours of card are more likely to work well - and prepare to re-flash.
You should note that the selection of a suitable SD card does not seem to be an exact science - there is evidence to suggest that almost identical cards may have varying levels of success.
So the bad news is you are facing expense; the good news is that your experience of WP7 isn't representative.
Hello,
I recently bought a HTC HD 2 Tmobile from ebay .
The phone will not boot up.
When i start up the phone it leads me to the windows start up to the tmobile start up then back to the windows start up and stays there and i cannot do anything except take out the battery.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Sounds like you are stuck in a boot loop. There is a few things you can try.
First check the battery pins and make sure you do not have any that are bent out of alignment with the others or that is being hindered in anyway.
Next you can download the official Windows Mobile ROM from T-Mobile. You will have to enter the IMEI number, look under the battery for it. Once downloaded you can try to flash it via USB. Just put your HD2 into the bootloader by holding down the volume down button while powering on your HD2 and then connect it to your computer via USB cable. You will have to have Windows Mobile Device Center or Active Sync installed on your computer so you can get the USB Sync connection you need. Go to here to find a link to both, just choose the one you need for the type of windows you use. Anyway once you have your HD2 in bootloader and connected the serial in the bottom white bar of bootloader should change to USB, this means you have the USB Sync connection. When you see the USB you can right click on the ROM you downloaded from T-Mobile and run it as administrator. I do suggest you let your HD2 stay off and charge for a little while first though to make sure you have more than a 50% charge.
If that does not work you can try running a Task 29 and then repeating the above mentioned steps to flash the ROM again.
If this does not fix your problem you probably have hardware issues causing the boot loop.
Thank you so much for the reply. I will try the things you have listed. Even though i am a bit lost haha. If these steps dont work , what are some of the hardware issues that may be the cause of this? And i know this is random but can you help me load android onto my hd2? I have 2 2gb micro sd cards do i have to get a bigger card? Which android os would you recommend? Thats quick and smooth? Thx!

the hardware issue would be overheating cpu, have to get a new main board via HTC warranty (if it is not voided due to water damage or dropped).
Android is easy to load. Fast/smooth you want a CyanogenMod7 ROM, you can find versions for SD or versions that you flash on the phone itself. You can either run Windows Mobile 6.5 then laucnch Android from SD (dual-boot), launch Android from SD with no Windows Mobile, launch Android flashed from internal storage, or flash Windows Phone 7 to internal storage and run Android from SD (dual-boot).
The tutorials are all in the HD2 Android forums and HD2 WP7 forums.
initially I would try a hard reset before getting too technical.
hold down volume up and down and switch on. keep holding volume buttons, when prompted press volume up. this will restore to out of he box settings ie remove all previous data on the phone.

As far as hardware issues go it is like XDA member orangekid said overheating is the predominant reason that comes to mind. Another thing is degraded prossesor connection or degradated flash/NAND chip connections. All of witch can only be fixed by main board replacement.
Yes I can help you "load" Android onto your HD2, just click the guide link ed in my Sig. I think everything you need to know is there. well except how to run Android fro SD card, hmmm maybe I should add that. Also you can go here for more links to very useful threads in the Android General Stickie Roll up thread.
Again I have to agree with XDA member orangekid, the CyanogenMod7 ROMs are pretty creaking awesome. But I do recomend the Hyperdroid ROM I have linked in my Sig. I have used it for my daily driver for months and the only real problem I have had is the latest update to the ROM the new updated market would not work properly I would have to go to Settings/Applications/Manage Applications. Then find the market selerct it and then select Uninstall Updates. Oh and make sure you do not have the check box checked to aromatic update the market or you will have to do this everytime you use the market. I am currently testing the [17 Aug][SENSE3.0] Pyramid HTC WWE 1.35.401.1 - Real 3D [V2.1][RAF 1.9GB] ROM to sort of test the HTC Sensation's ROM and to check out HTC Sense 3.0.
As for your 2gig SD card no it will work but I do recomend you consider getting a 4 gig SD card. I have heard mixed results from 2 gig SD cards that people use to dual boot with. I personally have never used under a 4 gig SD card and have never had any trouble.
Thank you all for your replies.
I will Try out all the steps to fix my phone first. then i will try to load up android onto it and i will get back to you guys. i thanked all that have helped thank you so much. i will be back around sunday or monday with an update. wish me luck! oh one more question. would a 8gb be a good size micro sd card? or should i get a 16gb?
It really depends on how much space you'll think you'll need like, are you a person who takes a lot of pics or video, do you keep a lot of music on your phone? If you do then yes I would go with an 8gb. If not then you could really just use a 4gb sd card. I use a 8gb class 10 sd card myself and store a lot of pics, roms and backups and I haven't had the need to go back to a 16gb. Also you dont have to get a high speed card either, a class 4-6 is plenty.
If you decide to go the dual boot for Android I would look up a program found here on XDA called Rundroid. It will allow you to run many different Android builds from your sd card and is very simple to use. I would give the link but I'm not by a computer right now, sorry about that.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Hiii just an update . i did try to hard reset and it does reset but after i reset when it reboots it stays on the tmobile stick together logo.

I dont want to comment on something and be wrong so with that I would take it to t-mobile and see if you can have it switched out under your warranty. I had a very similiar problem that it was stuck on the HTC/T-mobile splash screen and I sent mine in for repair through HTC. They fixed the issue and sent it back (for free), all I had to pay was shipping there. They do say that if they find something thats not covered under warranty like water damage/not the proper software they'll call and let you know if there will be a charge to fix it.
I will say that my bootloader and probabaly everyone elses dont look like yours. Just above the spl-2.08 mine says pb81120..also mine says Cotullahspl where yours does not. If you dont find what your looking for here on the site best bet is to send it in for repair. Even if T-mobile says you didn't buy the warranty or what ever you still may be covered through HTC. This also will apply even if you bought the phone used.
HTC repair can be found here.
were you not holding the volume down button when you turned on the phone?
I would just download/flash stock from that bootloader screen.
I was holdin the vol down and power and i bought it on ebay so.. idk if i have warenty.
Even if you bought the phone on ebay you still could have a warranty. In post 12 I linked HTC repair. If you call them you could find out if you do have a warranty on it or not. They'll ask if for the imei# and run it. Im not sure if its a two year or one year on the warranty but they'll be able to tell you that.
I bought a used HD2 on ebay as well. Mine was listed as broke and was stuck on the T-mobile splash screen. I asked for the imei# from the seller and then called HTC to find out if it still had a warranty which it did, so i bought it. I lucked out that my phone was covered under warranty, you may or may not have the same luck as i had.
Thank i did what you told me and they gave me a new motherboard on mine. Thanks alot
