The problem is that the phone is suddenly becoming extremly hot anytime it is charging or turned on. If I turn it off and let it cool down and then turn back on it becomes very hot in just few minutes. The battery after all night charging will discharge in 30 minutes max if i don't touch the phone, if I do anything or softreset it will discharge in immiedietly. If it has 95 % before softreset after it will be be like 5% and giving me alert about low battery level. Charging process is also much slower than normal, after 5 hours it will be around 50%. Before it was up to 100% form 5% in 4 hours max. This is all about power problems that made me think it could be battery dying... but propably not the case :/ Plus the battery doesn't heat up only the shiny black part around usb port is the place from where all the heat comes.
The other problem is that active sync or usb mass storage connection cannot be established. The computer doesn't see the phone at all. Moreover it will always charge the phone via usb even if I disable charging via usb in power options.
I tried a couple of hard resets and reinstalled newest official rom available on htc europe website from nbh file on a card (since usb is not working and I had spl 1.56 from that rom on the device already) This didn't help.
I am pretty sure now it is not a software fault or mechanical injury since I've never dropped the phone and always had it in this htc sock. No water contact was ever possible. It was just a regular day when this happend and I noticed it when the phone was in my pants pocket and started to burn my leg. Think it is some hardware issue related to usb port or anthenas since this is the source of heat.
Already returned my HD for fixing, but just thought I would let everybody know what happend to me. Anybody had a problem like that with their phone or maybe knows what is going on with this crazy Touch HD device?
My HD has started doing this in the last 10 days!
The black shiney part is get way hot, even when its not even on charge!
It wouldn't connect to active sync but would just as a disk drive.
The battery is running down to about 60% from 100 in less than 1.5 hours with no use!
I've never dropped the phone, spilt anything on it or anything.
I've hard reset it twice, and it was back to normal for a day, then started doing it again so i turned the phone off and charged it over night, was normal for about 5 hours after turning it back on, and now its started doing it again! I'm going to try the test on HTC's website to test if its a faulty battery but this doesn't explain why its getting so hot????
Let me know how yours turns out, i'm going to call orange insurance and see what they say!

My HTC Magic does not boot when turned normally ON. I installed an application from Mobentoo Slideme download application and all of a sudden the phone restarted and begins to repeat the boot tune with the HTC flashing in the centre of the screen continously. ( That is the tune and the logo appears at every 10 seconds approx.)
I will have to shut it down only by removing the battery.
And again when i restart the same thing happens.
I as well tried removing the Mem card. But no use.
Before yesterday i was a little drunk and accidentally the phone finish in the floor with the screen crashed but it continouos working just fine. Then the battery die, in the morning when i connected it start and loop on Tmobile logo, it doesnt charge becuase i leave it there for 1 hour and when disconnect it instantly dies.
The phone dies working on froyo 2.2 SuperRam with vauss pro rom installed. Has done task29, reinstall rom and continues the same.
Im new on this phone, sell my iphone a few ago and was pretty happy until that day.
One of three things:
1-Bad battery
2-Bad charger
3-Bad phone
Try a new battery, charging via USB and lastly calling HTC for a warranty replacement.
My HTC HD2 has SPL 3.10 .. one day, it just suddenly stop charging .. When I plug the charger in, it doesn't light up. After taking the battery out and wait for 5 mins or so, I put the battery and it turn on but it stuck at stick together screen and never goes pass that. The phone can go in the bootloader but it can't do a hard reset. Please help me .. and thanks for any input
Try downgrading your HSPL version to 2.08H
If you want Custom Windows Mobile or Android, it is the best option either way.
Then go ahead and try flashing the stock rom found here(FOR TMOUSA)

I did tried to install HSPL 4 to downgrade .. and it said on the the screen we hacked it .. but the phone still didn't go pass the stick together screen
Then I tried to install MAGLDR, it run pass the 100% and it didn't boot into the black screen .. the phone just disconnected itself from the computer .. I did this process for a few time.. but always have the same result
ok.. now i am able to go to the MAGLDR screen .. installed android froyo 2.2 ... and it's running .. but when the bar is finished .. the phone doesnt reset. it just stuck at the screen and saying Reset now. Is there anything else i can do ?
Try putting the phone in freezer for 10min. Remove sim card. Remove battery and SD card then wrap phone in plastic bag(ziploc) before putting in freezer. Before hitting turning phone back on, plug charge... IT WORK ON MY PHONE
