[Q] Help Like Immediatly - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

So Heres The Story: My brother had the htc hd2 and he rooted it and such and such and he gave it to this girl and she was having problems such as drop calls that's it and she gave it back cause he agreed to fix it but she got a new phone so he gave it to me and now I face a problem where the phone won't boot up only a black screen is it bricked? also he says that I need to install something he said its fine and he won't help me so that's Wjy I'm Here Please Help Me ASAP :crying:

You aren't paying us, we help when we feel like it.
Turn off the phone, hold the volume down rocker and boot the phone, what shows up?
P.S: You broke two rules of xda (if not more):
1- Your title is not descriptive at all.
2- You did not search before posting.
Next time, be more careful please

I agree with Marv here. The title is demanding and uninformative and not having read the rules is a ludicrous justification for breaking them. I don't see how him informing you that you've broken rules is in any way wrong and maybe he put it a bit bluntly but its ultimately all correct. Just adding on that swearing is also not allowed on XDA since its an unrestricted forum.
As for your actual issue, have you checked that the battery pins aren't bent and the battery is actually making contact with the pins when you put it in?

[Q] HELP! My Touch 3G Help! Gmail Setup NO DATA

I downgraded my mytouch 3g to 1.5 firmware to root it and i thought that i could enable the adb on the my touch with the onscreen keyboard you can bring it up by pressing menu on the setup screen but no luck at all so im stuck here on the setup screen and i dont have a data plan so what can i do i just did my g1 thru adb shell and i activated with wifi but its not working on the mytouch 3g so please help me out please..........and no i dont have a friend with a sim.............no i dont want to pay for a 1 day use of data for tmobile plus they suspended the account for now and i cant do that anyways........but the weird thing is when i start command prompt and goto the tools folder i can type in fastboot devices and the mytouch shows up but when i try to flash like fastboot flash recovery cm-recovery-1.4.img it starts but it shows this (Hopefully the image loaded lol) but yeah i explained in the pic of what im talking about as well i dont kno what that means and how im supposed to fix it........so hopefully u can help me out is there anyway to enable adb on the mytouch thru fastboot so it can enable it so i can use adb shell and it would actually show up when i type in adb devices because i kno its working because fastboot works???? all the help you can give is aprreciated....
Seriously 23 views and not one piece of info????????????? are you serious......I NEED HELP...........
That means you are using perfected SPL. Just because fastboot devices returns the serial, it doesn't mean you can flash images using adb.
You will need to have engineering SPL to be able to flash images (recovery, radio, etc) through ADB.
No one probably replied because if you had searched for fastboot Remote: Not Allowed in google, you would have found the answer already.

If you needed help so bad you should have posted it in the correct thread.
Moved to General.
Guess what DEVELOPMENT means? Seriously, take a look in the thread at most of the other posts. I take a look and I see "SPL Collection", "Radio Switcher", "Sapphire Hacking", "Rom Bible", and then "HELP! Gmail Setup NO DATA"
One of these things are not like the others.
I'm moving it to the appropriate thread but next time I'll close it without warning.

Your not DEVELOPING anything by rooting your myTouch, your merely modifying something that already exists within the phone.
When it comes to anything dealing with technology, developing something means that you are either creating something completely new, or you are taking a process/application/media medium that already exists and improving it. In lame man's terms, your either creating an all new application/ROM/way of rooting (in our case) or you are taking a currently created ROM and improving on it in order for it to run properly on different devices (such as porting a ROM created to run on the Droid X so that it will work on the myTouch 3G). This could also include creating new kernal's for devices to be able to be properly overclocked, be compatible with newer ROM versions, etc.
But, I do understand where you come from. Sometimes it is just human nature for a person to become defensive in the presence of ignorance. A word of advice though, being disrespectful towards a forum admin is not the way to go about getting help.
Would also like to add that if you look under the General Discussion header you'll see that it says "Discussion about the T-Mobile myTouch 3G, HTC Magic (general Q&A, tips & tricks)".

I wasn't necessarily bashing you, nor was Binary. I'm a mod myself for a gaming clan that I'm a part of and I just understand where Binary is coming from. Think about the fact that you have thousands of people trolling these forums and when 70% of them don't post things in the proper place or post a question that was answered two threads from the top, it gets very redundant having to "help" them out by pointing them in the right direction all the time. If people would merely take that extra second to search or read an extra sentence it would make everything so much easier. Yes, Binarys response may have sounded slightly sarcastic, but when I've seen the guy have to move 20-30 threads and tell people to search for their problem because the answer was in a thread two days old, then I can't blame him. People really need to try and look at both sides of a situation before flaming. Its understandable that your frustrated, but again, flaming at anyone on these, or any other, forums is not the way to generate positive responses.
Now, as for you problem, how exactly did you go about downgrading to 1.5? Do you have the MT3G with the 3.5mm jack? You not going to be able to run anything through ADB until you can actually get into the phone and enable USB debugging (unless you can get into recovery), in the meantime, your going to have to run everything through fastboot. Next, that recovery image your using is kind of old, you might want to try Amon Ra 1.7.0. Along with your answers, post your current fastboot information (turn the phone off and power on by holding back+power). When the screen with three skateboarding Androids comes up, write that information into here.

No I understand completely. I agree with you 100%. I was a noob for years in fact. Believe it or not even I still have issues. I just posted one in the G1 Q&A a few days ago and it still hasn't had any responses so I know how you feel. Yet I also know what it takes to get flammed and how to avoid it. No one here is flamming or bashing you and I apologize if it seemed that way but sometimes you need to make light of a heavy situation if you get my meaning. You're thread will likely get hundreds of views... and not just from members. And I move around an average of 20 to 50 posts per day! So yeah... I move more posts than you even read! So while you're trying to imagine that just think about how many I would have to move, edit, delete and close if I didn't come off strict towards everyone. I'm not a jerk like I come off to be... I'm actually very lenient but I can't ban someone today for breaking a rule today and give someone a second chance tomorrow for breaking the same rule. In the same way I can't just move a thread without an explaination either because it causes confusion. So how am I supposed to appear strict, enforce and be fair all at once? Ask your parents! LOL! Just think of me as this forums father. I'll ground you for breaking a rule or I'll help you fix your bike if I can. See my meaning? By the way... forum wise... I'm a single father (only moderator) of three children named Wing (the Oldest and most mature... little maintenance, Tilt... middle child, and my youngest Sapphire. Sapphire is a handful because she is growing so fast and she (as in the members) doesn't quite knows what she's doing yet.
Sorry but that's the best metaphor that I can come up with for now.

Unpolite

Why are some answers rude . If a person posts without giving it much fore thought and an answer appears to be self evident what do you gain by calling them stupid or giving a "Snotty" answer. In my opinion the person make the rude comments are showing there own stupidity. If a person makes an obvious error you can politely bring it to there attention without name calling.
I think the biggest problem here in xda is people dont search.. People ask questions that have been asked loads of times.
What a stupid question!!!
How dare you clog up the boards with this rubbish!!!
Just kidding mate
Its like my dear old mum used to say...
"Some people are just dicks"
Sent From My Toaster Using A Tin Can And Some String
BTW it's "impolite"
I think I'll vent a little here, if you don't mind..
.. but as Shum97 said, people don't search. The forum search may not be up to scratch or hard to navigate for new visitors, but it is there. Maybe having an even bigger and glaring button SEARCH would help leviate some of the [Q]this-[Q]that topics which don't get past the 5 post stage.
Another way of searching is to use Google and add "xda" into your search query. Try searching up "xda unpolite hd2" and see if you can get back to this thread (not directed at you OP).
Now a major point I think is worth mentioning:
Notice the transition of Apple iPods and iPhones from a somewhat unknown in the early 2004-05's to a global sensation beyond? Also notice an increase in "iPhone is da best ur fone cnt beat it ha!" and / or "ZOMG sum1 help me wif my prob plueeeeeeze". Once devices start becoming popular beyond the moderate / advanced computer-literate customers it starts becoming a nightmare to browse any useful comments amongst the sea of flamers and fanboys.
I think that's what is happening to the HD2. Due to its massive screen (seems size is what average joes think about) and the moderate but decent exposure by xda users, this phone in particular by HTC has begun to gain in popularity. Likewise, the phenomenon with the increase in popularity (leads to) the increase in irritating posts on this forum (or any forum really).
How to solve this?
Answering much of the questions in the Questions forum could help stem the overflow of [Q] or even [Req] topics into other forums. The reason why they are spilling over is nobody wants to answer endless questions with virtually no information and endless repetition. How to deal with that? I don't know..
And believe it or not, how you construct and word your questions can be determinate of your response time and how engaged the responder is to your query.
Questions like this..
Hey all, I am having problems with the bluetooth settings on my international HD2 (stock WWE 1.61). When connecting to my Sony Ericsson HSH925, the prompt mentions driver x missing. After browsing through some other topics, there seems to be a conflict between program x and y which causes this driver to be erased. I have tried the drivers from the other topics but they were all for ROMs before 1.61. Would anyone have a fix for this or would we have to wait for HTC to release an updated driver?
.. will most likely get answered and stay on track.
Questions like this..
HLP I CNT CONNECT MY BT HEADSET 2 MY HD2 I tried connecting thru da menu but it not work. Srry if its been asked b4 srry if its been asked b4 srry if its been asked b4 srry if its been asked b4csrry if its been asked b4 srry if its been asked b4 srry if its been asked b4 srry if its been asked b4 help me PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS *bump* *bump* *bump* *bump* *bump* *bump* *bump* *bump*
.. will most likely be ignored.
The other possibility (and this is to the extreme, but not necessarily impossible), is that advanced users / developers / testers will move off to another site, leaving this forum to wash away in endless never-finished topics. An example I like to compare to is remember (if anyone's old enough) how downloading (by that I mean illegal downloading of pirated material unfortunately), was a sort of niche, a nerdy / geeky past-time who nobody below a Major in IT would understand? Then it slowly become popular over time, and then rose sites such as Kasaa, then LimeWire, then torrent sites. Where next? Because it has become so popular, it has also attracted the flack of anti-piracy regulators (rightly-so) which just never would of happened had it remained secluded and nobody-knew-about-it-basis. I "think" the next big thing would be VPNs and proxys, but you ain't hear nothing from me.
Anyway I hope the forums don't turn out to be what the X1 forums are now (which I was a proud owner of). And to go back to the OP, I guess on behalf of xda to the wider non-tech-savvy community, we aren't angry or unpolite by nature, we are just tired of answered questions and one-line flame comments silluetting out the actual developments and hacking topics that has made the HD2 greater than it ever was.
*going to troll the Questions forum now*
I'm with btyeh on this one.
a big tip is when using google, try typing:
site:xda-developers.com [your search terms here]
i.e.
site:xda-developers.com hd2 unpolite
The top search result should be this topic.
I've been an avid user of these boards for quite a while, and encourage people to help others (as I do), but it doesn't work if people don't bother to try and help themselves first.
You wouldn't get much help if you rang a support line and said "it's broken, fix it"
Its not easy to help someone with so little detail.
What is broken?
How is it broken?
What has happened to it recently/has anything changed?
I've noticed a much larger number of topics that are repeating, and quite frankly, its making me think twice about even looking at the site, let alone bother to take the time to respond to the 4th topic of the same problem on page 1 alone.
If it chaps your "delicates", why answer? Why even look? skip the thread and go on about your day instead of being a complete prick to some stranger.
Sad thing about the internet, is that because it's through the safety of a terminal, people have sacrificed manners and common sense.
If you don't want XDA to become the next youtube-comments site, then learn to not be a search-nazi. The annoying people asking annoying questions will go away or learn to ask the right questions.
btyeh
I really value the time it took to post that. Specially when 9 out of 10 of my post go ignored. I could post something here or in another forum and it would be the same result.
I usually provide a lot of detail and thats because I really want to show that I've done my research. Doing my own research shows to me that I value others time.
I will have to agree that a lot of flames start by the person failing to search.
So now we have a delimma.
Those who arse are chapped by the insane amount of double and tripple post are asked to ignore it and move on. Those who post these topics are asked to do searches and not double post.
No one puts their foot down and says dont flame or your banned. No one puts their foot down and says do a search or be banned.
I know that sounds harsh but I think both needs addressing. The site needs to get under control the amount of first timers who ask questions and dont bother to do a search. The site also needs to put the jerks flamers and a-holes in check also myself included.
I guess my beef is I mostly have to search for these things myself. I think its only fair that someone else have to do the same. Atleast show some effort.
I am making a effort to not to be a jerk to new memebers. I Actually wont answer the thread if i think i am going to be mean.

I think we all make this effort.. but to some dudes.. its just the wrong day.. like i avoided answering this thread because i think its the most whiney ass man on man sex **** i have ever heard in my life to write a thread crying about how someone was/ is inpolite to you or someone else on a forum..
but here i am.
I think its not just the way we answer new folks though but the way the questions are asked...
when there is a thread called
"Question"
regardless what comes when you open it.. the dude deserves to get flamed.. for not even prefacing us with what a question was about.. and wasting time space and bandwidth just to pacify his own simple.. ignorance.
This being said.. a newer person posted a Question the other day and less than 4 hours later was *****ing no one answered him yet... yea i made a smart ass comment about him being a **** for expecting people to answer him in a manner of seconds.. but i also answered him. .and tried my best to help him with his issue..
i guess what im saying.. is as the theoretical knowledgeable portion of this forum we are probably going to flame ignorant questions... but we need to try and answer the questions at the same time..
Yea you might call someone an idiot for asking an idiotic question.. but if you are gonna take the time to flame.. take the time to point them the right direction while your at it.

Because i did my due diligence and search like anyone who's tech savvy enough with an ounce of logic (and if you're not those type, you shouldn't be involved with ROM flashing and should just stick with stock ROM), so I don't see how that gives other people the free pass to post whatever their hearts desire without giving us some background to their problems.
Sure, I've seen threads where people were unsure of their problems but they post a laundry list with background info, pics, ROM version, etc....yet there are others who simply post "HD2 froze...phone wont get past white screen." I'm sorry, but stupidity and lack of awareness are not excuses for you to post whatever you want. What's funny are the people who complain about the "unpolite"ness every week, yet are still as shortsightedness as the people who post without any measurable contents.

Just answered this one over in Q&A.
Could have been rude, but that wouldn't help him with his email problem, wouldn't have made him more likely to provide background in the future, only would have made me an asshole.
When he reply's back with the proper background info, I will try my best to help him, and then kindly bring to his attention that in the future he should search twice , then gather the apropriate background info, then post his question.
The old carrot and stick technique usually provides the best results for all.
Plus the reason he didn't post all the background info may be because he has been trying for an hour to get it to work, and may be upset that he is not able to get important emails tomorrow at work.
Being rude to people is an easy way, and easy ways usually don't pay.
There is seldom ever a reason to be unpolite
There's a couple things not mentioned so far that also contribute to the impoliteness:
Often the people who would reply have done so already for another person, and are now fed up seeing the same question.
If you've been around here for as long as some of us, or have been on a device thread since it was new, you've seen the same question asked possibly hundreds of times. How many new threads ask how to flash? Or "HELP! I'VE BRICKED MY PHONE"?
I don't remember ever opening a thread to ask a question, I just know that someone else has already asked it, and it has been answered already, I just gotta find it. Even a lot of googling is quicker than waiting for a reply anyway.
On the other side, there are some things which can be annoying about these responses, that is:
When the answer is buried in a ROM thread, and there is no dedicated thread to the problem.
or
There are more threads about the problem which say "search for 'x'", than there are actual threads with solution 'x', making searching unlikely to give the results you want. Often there is only one small thread, such as the disabling the HTC customisations thread which is only a few pages.
or
The search terms are not obvious (such as the same thread already mentioned) if you don't know the details of the problem, or the answer very well, then it can be hard to know what to search for.
I think compared to other forums ive seen XDA is by far the best almost everybody is really helpfull a few bad apples though just like every forum. But I think everyone needs to be patient to n00bs as we have all been there. I too have been guilty of posting without searching but thats since has changed.
Eitherway you guys on XDA rock

Not a good day

My beautiful hd2 is no longer flawless. The vibrate function has ceased to work. I feel like ive lost a relative lol. You can hear the little motor trying to work inside but no vibration feedback. Suppose its time to scan ebay for a new 1 or maybe upgrade to the desire HD (if the missus will allow)
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Time to open it and readjust that motor. It could be jammed and needs a slight repositioning
Think you might be right im sure theres a thread here on how to open it up. Time to search.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Wel that aint done anything nw it is intermittent wether it works lol. Time to mazuma this mobile and get a DHD me thinks
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Dude, Don't put it on the Motor.
Just say I no longer like the HD2 and I want a DHD, No body's gonna kill you
i don't know how much the OP searched before posting this redundant thread...
FYI, common cause of the vibration motor failing (mentioned in many many threads) is that the flash LED cover can get pressed inside. this puts pressure on the motor, preventing it from spinning.
take a close look at the flash LED cover on the back of the device...see if it appears depressed into the body. if so, your problem might be simply resolved by opening up the device just enough so that you can re-seat the flash LED cover back into its designed position.
if the flash LED cover is sitting right, then the motor might truly be busted...in which case, go ahead and think about replacing it with a DHD.
FYI, i've used a friend's DHD briefly and i can honestly say that its stock ROM felt noticeably MORE SLUGGISH than some of the DHD-based custom ROMs for the HD2 that i have used. of course, the DHD's CUSTOM ROMs might be leaps and bounds better than the DHD's stock ROM and any DHD-based custom ROM for the HD2!
I'll trade you for mine with a cracked screen
@ASCllker if you had read my "redundant " thread you would of known ive already tried opening up. So thanks for your redundant post in my redundant thread. I love my hd2 i just cant have a phone with no haptic feedback.

ahan, i label it redundant because the opening post of the thread offers no new information, nor have you worded the subject and opening post as a request for help, more like a "breaking news" (pun intended). this is a forum, not twitter...so try to be verbose/detailed as opposed to terse and "bloggy" (for lack of a better word). of course, all that is my opinion.
still, my post was meant to guide your attention to the flash LED cover, because you didn't make it clear in your later posts exactly what aspects of the device's components you looked into when you DID open it up. nor did you mention that you were already aware of the possibility of a faulty flash LED cover. so i added new information. you might already know about it but future readers might benefit from the information (who am i kidding? as if new-comers EVER search!).
once again, focus on details please. if this thread was just some breaking news from your life and you've made your decision to move on to replace the HD2 and need no further help, why not have the thread closed? if you really intended to get help, then i suggest you change the subject and edit the first post to add more information. you might get better help than what has already been posted in this thread as well as in numerous other threads.

17 May 2011 - HD2 for Sale (Spares or Repair)

Hey forum folks, I'm selling my HD2
]
Sadly, I dropped my HD2 and the screen went *smash!* although, it all still worked. Anyway, this blighted me so I tried to replace the screen with a brand new digitizer/screen replacement combo but I have failed. Despite very carefully taking it all apart and putting it all back together (as per the HTC guides on youtube) I've failed to do a good enough job and the screen now believes I am pressing it when I am not. Anyway, I believe this can be fixed but I don't have the know how or the funds to do it as I am going travelling in a fortnight.
I have therefore taken the v.diff decision to flog my phone so that someone can fix it or use it for spares. As far as I can tell everything is working except for the volume buttons. I think the problem with the volume buttons is that the orange sticker thing might have fallen off and I don't know where to get these replaced?
Anyway, the screen is BRAND NEW; as is the digitizer. The GPS module, battery and camera all work fine so it's an ace little phone that could be easily stripped for spares. I'm giving you guys the chance to get in on the bidding and if you've got any questions I'll answer them right here! So get bidding - oh and the auction opens at 0.99p!!!
I should also add that I don't think this contravenes the forum rules but if it does I beg and plead and grovel in a very humble manner - I only mention it because I know how important these rules are and I know how upset the moderators get with idiots and I am scared I may have stumbled into that category with this posting.
I think you're ok, just post this in the Marketplace next time, maybe a mod can move it for you.
Hi Guys and Gals,
Sorry to bother you all, but just wanted to say that I have been forced to relist my old HD2 after the last auction was won by a massive timewaster who didn't pay up and who wouldn't respond to questions as to the delay.
Anyway, I've relisted the device on e-bay, and you can find it at e-bay.co.uk and the item is ******. I hope that this time someone who actually wants it might win!
Cheers
We have a Marketplace for selling things. And we don't alllow ebay links, as per the forum RULES.

Tips of saving the i9000 digitizer's sensitivity

Today, i write these tips to help people who are no ideas in dealing with the matter of i9000 digitizer lost sensitivity. Now i just list some ways according to my cell phone repair experience.
I f you guys faced with this problem, you can do as what i said here:
First of all, you should check if there has a protector on your phone screen. If so, please tear off the protector, and you can touch you digitizer to check, if the phone has sensitivity, it means the protector has a bad effect on i9000 digitizer.
Secondly, check whether the contact has drifting problem or not. You can click one icon in phone display, if no sensitivity, but the other screen places where surround this icon have sensitivity, it means your phone contact faces with the drifting problem, and you should recalibrate the i9000 digitizer screen.
Thirdly, If the digitizer were broken. You can replace it by yourself just according to the i9000 take apart videos on youtube or a proffessional guidance site, it can save a lot of money if you do it.
Finally, the worst way is send you phone to cell phone hospital. I do not agree with you guys do so, because many repair shop just ask the very expensive price to fix the borken phone, and indeed, we can replace our broken phone parts easily.
