hi,
thnx for the help.. i did follow the steps mentioned.. but it styll doesnt wrk. whn i try to flash the rom.. it supposedly looses connection wid the computer .. the screen looses the light buh the wizard is on all the way.. u cant use it though.. buh the lights are still blinkin.. (the wifi and phone)
thnx

hey, my mda doesnt even turn on anymore, do u guys think its the battery but the battery was fine when i flashed it but then it doesnt boot to the window, so i took the battery out and put it back in and it doesnt turn on anymore.. i tried the camera, rest button and other stuffs. do u think my phone is bricked? or i should def. get a new battery and try it out?

I suggest you back to your Official rom first then start over again. I do this many times. Activesync always loose its connection before start flashing. It's a normal procedure. When you mention that your Wizard is still up and on the way, what you mean exatcly? Be more specific bringing point details on where you are stuck for instance. Then I'll try to help you out.
Good luck.

Sounds a power problem to me. I've been into this couple of times after being in a bootloader mode for a long time. Plug the Wizard directly into the powerwall to start charging then back to your flashing process first doing with an official rom. I don't think you have bricked it.

sry, i forgot to mention that it doesnt even charge too, both powerwall or pc

Try to enter in a bootloader mode by hold on the camera button while pressing the reset button. You'll go to bootloader. If not, remove battery one more time, wait seconds and put it in back. Then, force bootloader again and try to charge through powerwall. You should get an orange light or similar during recharging. Check your model. Hope it helps you this time.

which version is it ,G3 or G4,and which Rom were trying to upgrade with.
Well,if its a G3 then,there's some power problem,but if it's a G4 and you tried to flash a Rom with IPL/SPL included,well its a brick.

Yeah...unfortunately zabardast_1 is right about your device. If it is a G4 and you flashed a G3 ROM, you could have bricked your techtoy! Hope you knew what you was doing at that time!
Try to always provide enought information regarding your environment and device so we can help you out better!

do some search before you open up a new thread brother. anyways, here's a possible solution (you may have to try it out coz i never found myself in this situation)
this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366505) has one solution (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1915254&postcount=5) from orefkov which may help or this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351234) from nirvana might help too
hope this helps in recovering your gene. also i suggest going further, you should get into flashing or cooking only if you know what you doing

Stuck from boot loader resolved
Man i called htc service centre here in bangalore , they gave me a simple solution for my problem...
We can hard reset the device just by pressing and holding both the " -" keys right above the answer and end keys and pressing the power button . It will run the ghost image and recover the device ...
note :
1) make sure your battery is more than 50 % charged .
2)you must do a power cycle in your device ( take out the battery , then press and hold the power button ) before you do a hard reset ...
My device is back to normal...

Wow ! Now this is what i call "life saving medicine". Thanks for giving it !
I am referring to Ghost image.What exactly it is and is it safe even after flashing ? Finally what is power cycle(Is it complete discharge of backup battery).
Thanks again buddy

I guess your spl is giving you the trouble. search for olipro"s CID unlock file , you should be ok after this .

How can one make sure that the battery is more than 50% charged when the phone is showing the bootloader screen... If I keep it for charging in that state, does it get charged?
Please help

Start the phone in bootloader without connecting the cable. NOw press the powerbutton for a while to shutdown the phone completely. Then plugin the cable or charger, it will start charging without getting started. Charge it for sometime, or to be on the saferside, untill the light turns into gree from amber.

@bryabgopan just a road down memory lane for u
hi
i dont know if u remember long time when i sent a PM to u asking help to upgrade my 3400i u gave me a very rude reply and said its not rocket science and to look around but i see u asking for help
so its different when u need help and some one else asks u for the same im saying this because ur words then really hurt me its happened around 3-4 months back
so my humble request to u is if u cant or dont want to help just say it in a nice manner and not in a rude manner see u wanted help and u can see people trying to help u here

i dont know,, it was ok 85% be4 the phone shutdown..even i did put the charge on its give me the red light without use or charger its give nothing no power on or anything at all

As far as i know, this red light usually appears when either internal or main battery are low.
if while charging the light remains on, try replacing your internal battery.
better is to get it checked up by some hardware professional.

ok lts take another look...
press and hold both green and red button and reset ur phone..
do u see three color screen?

Well, screen can not break by itself. The Device must have fell down. You need to get it check by some technician.

your problem is not same as mentioned on this thread. seems like you have flashed some incompatible ROM. can u mention which ROM you flashed, or try contacting the ROM cook for advise.

Well your problem is related to cooking a ROM, you need to keep in consideration that while cooking a ROM you can have total of 535 packages and sizer below 20MB.
Try removing external packages one by one and cooking a rom..

How to fix an HD2 that Freezes at the splash screen and won't boot

HI,
I just had this problem and I saw that a ton of others had it too. It was where my phone would stop at the windows screen and not boot, and my PC wouldn't read the phone so I couldn't load a new rom or Hard SPL. How I fixed it was by getting my phone into bootloader mode, (the multi colored screen). Here's how to do it.
While phone is Off:
Hold Volume down & press power button
While phone is On
Hold Volume down & press Reset Button (meaning the little yellow button by the battery that you have to press with a pen to soft reset it)
Once your on the bootloader screen, plug your phone into your PC, you will hear the ding that the computer recognized it but your Windows Mobile desktop software will still say your not connected, don't worry about that,, you are connected. After that, just pick whatever rom you want, then just install it like normal. and it works. If your not running a rom, do the same but install hard SPL instead of a ROM.
I hope this helps,
As long as your phone turns on at least to the opening screen there is hope.
kn0t.

i had that problem, my phone was stuck on stock together splash screen, but I just called up tmo and they have sent me a new hd2.

Three words. I LOVE YOU! well not really since I'm not gay ha!
By the way This also works for the HTC Imagio!

Ok first off what ROM do you have and what SPL does it show when you are in the muticolor bootloader screen? Secound if you are trying to flash a ROM yse right clicking the .exe file and selecting run as adminastrator is a good idea. l

I had the same problem.. what usually helps for me is when it gets stuck.. pull out the battery and give it a solid 15-20 minutes.. and then turn it on and do nothing up until after it has booted

i do the battery thing but i cant go on doing this , i put a little txt or phone call and the phone goes bonkers and heats up,nightmare!
ok on the tri colour screen it says
PBB110 HX-BC
SPL-S.08.0000 8G XE
MICRO(LED) 0X05
MICROP(TOUCH)
SERIAL
AH!! just got into the boatloader screen !! by pressing volume up and down together~! rest it! but i need to wait cos ive pulled the battery again!!!

I am having the same issue. I had a android rom then was finally able to flash via sd the stock rom, but it would just freeze on splash screen when trying to boot. Now when I try to flash rom again it will start and freeze on 1%. Any suggestions?

Now when I try to load rom via usb it starts and then freezes on 1%. Then will say communication error and then when trying to boot phone it says software issue and now I cant even get a rom put back on! Please help lol

Ok try going to windowsmobile.com/getstarted and download and install the latest version of ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) , wich ever one you have to have for your computer, and install it on your computer as they have updated USB drivers for your HD2.

have you tried loading a rom from the root of your memory card LEOimg.nbh?

i have this problem too...but what is worse is after i went to splash screen and connect my phone to pc, my pc wont detect my hd2...so i cant flash a new rom...
ps : im on stock rom bought this almost 2 years ago if im not mistaken

You need to put your phone into bootloader then your computer will recognize it. Hold the volume down button down while you power on the phone and the multicolor bootloader will come up. Next connect your HD2 to your computer via your USB cable. Wait for the Serial in the white bar of bootloader changes to USB and then flash. If you go to the device manager of your computer while you see USB on your phone it should say HTC USB Sync if you want to be assured that you have a connection to flash with.

[Q] Crashed HD2, destroyed?

after flashing to 14 jan mdj. my hd2 crashed after 1 day of use. After that I can't boot into android or use USB. I think I even can't charge the phone. I don't see the red led. Andy ideas for fixing it? Try a new battery? It doesn't start up anymore, but it did a few times and said 12.fatal hit when booting android. I haven't tried Tricolour because I can't start it up anymore
Thanks,

When you turn on your phone what happens? What screen dow it take you to? What does it say when trying to run android? .......and for future notice this is the comnplete wrong section for this....and some more info regarding device, hspl, radio would be helpful too.

oh word? ... try this
1..first download the official wm 6.5 rom from tmobile or http://www.htchd2forum.com/general-...SID=799c9ce6abe4e3ddc05368f8432db509#msg22469
2...second remove the SD card and connect the phone to ur computer
3...hold the down volume + power buttom till u see 4 colurs and them run the tmobile official rom... let me know what happens

it doesn't boot up anymore, I will post again when I have it booting again.

All have to do is to download an htc official rom and connect ur Htc hd2 to
computer and flash it
Good luck

Can you seriously follow anyone's instructions given man? Quit trying to boot the phone. Connect the phone with your PC via the USB cable. Hold down the "volume down" key and the "power" key at the same time. Tell us if you see the tri colored screen.

Have you checked the battery contacts? They bend very easy, and the symptoms you describe are exactly those of that. If they are bent, VERY, OH SO VERY CAREFULLY straighten them up. If one or more are broken, I hate to tell you this, but you need to buy a new phone.

I think you have wrongly done the Clock Work Mod which shows the 123Fatal Hit error and ur hd2 remains stuck there. Your HD2 is not crashed at all just charge it with an external charger then go to bootloader by pressing n holding Volume Down key and Power button until you the triple coloured screen, then connect your data cable to HD2 and flash it with a stock windows mobile rom so it will restore ur hd2 and after that u can install nand rom on it by following each and every step mentioned in tutorials here. Whenever I select boot AD SD after flashing partition layout I always get 123Fatal error now I don't understand what the problem is....If someone has a solution for this problem please reply in this thread as I don't want flashing through DFT method.
