So how do you want to flash it . I guess you have to return it, without the proper equipment you can't do anything about it .

Just return this dead hd, you mention is brand new, so return it back to the seller

Did you receive the phone this way? Did it ever work? Did you change anything or do anything to it to cause this?

Two weeks after i received a new HD device i had the same problem. No charge, so didn´t start up. I´ve returned it to my dealer to change for another new one. Problem was in internal charge circuit (hardware). I tried in first moment to change the battery that dealer sended me to try. If device don´t charge the battery you have a perfect brick..

I had the same thing with a brand new unit, send it to HTC repair (they picked the unit up at my home and returnd it, free of charge) they removed the mainboard and replaced it giving me the same phone just with a new imei code.
@mainsail, don't try to flash the unit I did all of that: new radio, new fw. No improvement. Had to use a friends Touch HD battery to do this. then I had to place the original rom, or my warrenty would be lost. So Just send it back.
Also did some research (and left a message on xda) but the problem is with the mainboard where the power unit is at, not something I/you can fix.

my touch refuses to charge off the power plug that came or the one i got with my kaiser but it will charge from usb even from the usb lead for the power plug that came with it, any ideas?

Do you get the RED LED showing when you plug in?
Mike
Battery could be SHOT.
no there is not the usual red light

The device should show the red LED when not charging or the battery is not inserted, unless:
1
The charger is blown
2
A component is blown on the device.
As you have tried two chargers I suggest it is a device component and therefore a repair job. As a last thing to try you could try the hard reset key and stylus combination.
Mike
I really dont where i can repair my device ;p
Can people from holland suggest me a repear place in the north?
thnx all in advanced, i will wait one more night
Well after a month of waiting i finally got a new phone!
There was a blown component and the repair compagny of my provider ask me to pay 230 euro's because it was a 'level 3' repair.
But my mobile provider didnt agree with the repair price so finally i didnt had to pay after all!
Windows Mobile 5 is on it So i'm going to flash!
Thnx to all,

Well, good to know we diagnosed it correctly - pleased it's working and happy flashing

My Opinion
been running through threads all over, just found out that there is no solution, because when a program pushes the unit to wake up from standby it freezes, this program can be weather, alarm, mail, active sync, and even a CALL can cause this, so it's a permanent bug in wm6 and PPC :-(

Is it possible to accidently flash a Kaiser ROM to Wizard

I recently got a Wizard from someone I know. I unlocked it and flashed some ROM. I didn't like the ROM so I went to T-mobile NL website and got their official update to WM 6.0.
I also had the Kaiser update to WM6.1 on my desktop. Is it possible that I accidently flashed the Kaiser ROM to the Wizard or would I get an error before the proces of flashing started??
After some long night playing with my toys I found the Wizard dead next morning... it doesn't do anything anymore...no bootloader no led's no battery charging....nothing.
Maybe I should consider not drinking beer while playing
Anyway is there a solution or is this my first bricked HTC device?
Well, if you did indeed flash a Kaiser ROM to a Wizard, than I am fairly certain that it is bricked my man! Stop drinkin and flashin!
Try swapping the battery with another HTC device, if possible.
Try charging the dead one with a wall charger, if not.
If it won't charge, and won't boot, then you have yourself an expensive paperweight.
Hahahaha
My Men!!! The no ID RUU is hacked to dont recognize the device model? the Country? or some ID like IMEI? its dangerous isnt it? that's why i rename all the files for ROMS like wizard_bla_bla_bla.rar or something jeje cause my brother has a HTC universal.
So about your batt... get a wall chrger that gets more than 1 ampper maybe 2 and more output input doesn't matter its a default value for home electrical supply, and conect it.... if its not so try with a technician that make electroshocks to the poles with a little generator... it works for revival batt full drained by mistakes. or get an only batt all charger it exist believe me.
and if it works buy a new one cause the one you've got and revives dont last forever again.
Thanx folks, I am gonna try and find a replacement battery now. Luckely the wizard is just for playing...
My Magician charger....
I have these chargers lined up and haven't been using the Magician one for a long time.
At some time today I was looking and thought: What the Heck! give it a try...read the miniscule sticker: 1 Amp !?!
She Lives!! ...and all the settings are still there !?
am gonna try to flash the Kaiser rom to see wether that is possible gnagna
Will stop in time.

you dont learn the lesson... maybe it says wrong device....

Touch 3G does not power on !!

Hi Guys,
I had my HTC Touch 3G for a week now and was working fine.
Today, I tried to restart it but it powered off and never powered on since !!!!
I tried removing the battery, sim, mem card ...everything !! No luck.
Any ideas ?
it doesnt power on at all ?
try this :
remove the battery and plugin your device to a power source

Nope.... nothing.
Try Hard reset (full reset), see if it works. Otherwise you may have to return to the supplier. if it's still under warranty, ask for replacement. so sorry to hear that.

I tried that too... it wouldn't respond to anything.
I'll take it back to the supplier this afternoon, and ask for a replacement.
Counting down the minutes
Same happened to me.
Took it back, checked it and found that the motherboard was faulty so they changed it.
Maybe HTC does not apply the best quality controls in manufacturing, but the phone is great

Yeah, I have to admit, it's a great phone. loved it from the first few minutes of operation.
I took it to the store and they said that they'd change it if it's faulty but it'll take a week.... anyways back to the old Hermes.....
Hello, just letting you know that I got my jade back last night.
The local dealer sent it to HTC somewhere and replaced the mainboard. it seems fine. Lets hope it doesnt die again

Symptoms of Bricked HD2?

Hi, what are the symptoms of software bricked HD2?
I have HTC HD2 but not sure whats wrong with it, no power what so ever, no leds etc however the battery does charge. (Strange I know)
I got the phone like this so not sure how it happened
Thanks
Maybe the display have a problem not lighting up or something!
To tell you the truth; HTC HD2 is a bit difficult to software brick it imo! Take it back from where you bought it and change it!
The screen is fine, it doesnt connect to the pc or anything.
It might have been bricked by flashing TMOUS radio, just wanna know what the symptons are if that happens. If there the same symptoms as mine Ill send it off to get JTAG'd
I bought it faulty.

That sounds like a bricked HD2() like in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1068989.
Thanks for the link, could be a software or hardware fault. I'll try and get a phone shop to look it.
When you say "the screen is fine".... how do you know if its not displaying anything. Could be an LCD fault, how do you know the battery is charging...??
Im a bit confused by this one.
Apologies if I've missed something obvious, somewhat drunk.
As your on O2 im gonna assume your in the UK and its an EU HD2 (T8585).
If so, it cannot be bricked by flashing a tmous radio.......
I know its charging because the battery warms up and I checked in my other HD2 lol.
Its not an LCD fault as it doesnt even connect to the PC etc. Its just dead apart from that it charges the battery.
You wanted the symtoms of a hardware or hard bricked HD2. Well they are as follows.
1. The HD2 will vibrate and the hardware buttons will light up but it will not display anything but a black screen, not the first splash screen.
2. You can not boot into bootloader by holding the volume down button down while powering on the HD2.
3. On some hard bricked HD2s they will still apear to charge but it is not really charging the battery properly because the charging software is not working properly, thos is why your battery gets hot.
4. The HD2 is not recognized by the computer at all or only as Qualcomm something.
These are the symtoms I know for a hard bricked HD2.
Yours sounds like a case of a hard bricked HD2. In case the shop that you carry your HD2 to does not offer a JTAH service for the HD2 I can put you in contact with someone that can JTAG your HD2.
Thanks for that, How much does the person you know charge? I can get it Jtag'd for around £40
Sorry it tooke a little while to get back to you but the person I know charges $50 USD plus you pay whatever shipping and handling it is to ship the HD2 to him. But he lives in the US so you might be better of if you can get it done localy. But the guy I know is very good.
Ok thanks for that, Ill let you know if I cant get it done locally.

HD2 Problems with USB, not being recognized, can't enter bootloader

Hello everybody! It's samanen here, a newbie on xda. NOOOB
For first I'd like to apologize my not-so-good english, I'm 15 and from Finland so please keep the point in the problems and forget my english difficulties
Ok, splutting off and let's move to the point here
So I bought my HD2 (used) about two weeks ago, and right away tried to put WP7/android on it and sync music, contacts, videos and other stuff - but my USB connection didn't, and still doesn't work.
Ofcourse I tried reconnecting, cleaning the usb cable and port on the phone, tried another PCs and total of 10 different USB ports, another cable, Mac OS, Win7, WinXP, SyncMate, WMDC, ActiveSync, removing the battery, resetting the phone, removing SD-Card and SIM-Card, ActiveSync, Hard Disk and Faster data sync options, etc etc with no positive result. Its no fun having a mobile device with no access to put media and other stuff on it :/
Specs and facts:
HTC HD2 (aka Leo), non-T-Mobile (EU version?)
Software info:
Os Version : 5.2.21913 (21913.5.0.94)
Manila version : 2.5.20181527.0
ROM version : 3.14.405.2 (04666) WWE
ROM date : 09/29/10
Radio version : 2.15.50.14
Protocol version : 15.42.50.11U
Hardware info:
CPU : QUALCOMM(R) 8250B
Speed : 1024 Mhz
RAM size : 448MB
Flash memory size : 512MB
Enough numbers?
I think I have tried all the stuff I found here... Still no result, can't be detected on my PC. When I connect my phone to my PC, a notification pops up saying that USB device couldn't be detected/recognized, and it may be damaged. 1 second after it popped up it disappears and if I check the devices connected to the pc, there's no undetected devices anymore.. If I'm quick enough to click on the notification, it shows me what devices are connected and their situations, and I can see an undetected USB device there, but if I refresh (reopen) the window it disappears..
Also, if I use the option "When phone is on, do not charge the battery when connected to a PC." and connect to a PC via USB, it STILL does charge the battery. So my hypothesis is that the phone believes it's on a charger/car kit because its not getting recognized as a USB hard disk/device on my PC and still charges as it's connected to PC. Could this be possible in any way?
Also, when I got the phone and put it on the charger, CoPilot popped up every second (I closed it, it opened, etc) and I had to uncheck some option "When connected to a car kit open CoPilot automatically", so another thing there which refers to my phone being a psycho and believing its being on a charger.
I know there are people with this problem, and topics on this forum, but I think my problem is a bit different from theirs and nobody has really got an answer for this..
Then to my second problem. I can't enter Bootloader mode, or Hard Reset mode.
When I hold down the volDown button and press the bootup button, my phone either normally boots up or doesn't even boot up or show signs of booting into bootloader.
Once I got into the bootloader after dozens of tries, but as I'm stupid, I didn't write down the numbers shown there.. And now I seem not to be able to enter bootloader even after 20 tries.. Hardreset neither works. Same plan - either normally boots up or doesn't do anything. Weirdo much? Can anyone help? :/ I think I've bought an useless device..
Thanks,
samanen
Hi man! Try to flash your phone from SD card with stock ROM. Hope you will get good result! Let me know what happens!
Maybe it is your usb cable. I also can not sync with the cable that was delivered with the official carkit. It is just possible to load the device with that cable.
Your bootloader problem could be caused by broken volume buttons. I think they often get destroyed when replacing a broken touch screen. Do they work without problems inside the os?

Hai there! Thanks for your suggestion! What rom version would you recommend? I'm such a noob with these roms etc so I'd appreciate much if you/somebody could tell me what to use I will try that as soon as I find my microSD->SD adapter (Im afraid it got into vacuum cleaner as I cleaned my room ), also I have no idea how that's done but I believe there's a tutorial on xda.

I have tried 2 different cables, one from the package the previous owner provided me and another one from my dad's N97 mini. Could I be so unlucky that those cables are ones that don't work with HD2? I hope I am If you think its about the cable, what cable would you suggest me to get? Just a basic microusb cable from the electonic store? Also the previous owner told me he wiped out all the data and synced the phone before sending it to me WITH the cable provided, so.. Idk Strange.
No, my volume buttons are working great inside the os, I can adjust vol down and up well without any problems. Also my volbuttons are not sticky or feel like broken so I just don't believe that theyre damaged. Also the screen has never got damaged or repaired.
Another problem - Isn't it required to enter bootloader mode when updating the rom? :/
Thanks for both of you for your replies and suggestions, I will keep you updated if anything helps or gets clarified!
-samanen
Sorry then i can not help you. I do not think it is the cable. I bought one on amazon. It is official htc charging and syncing cable. This just came to my mind because you said that your copilot starts if you plug your phone in....
If you want to install another winmo rom you can do it when connected via active sync and it will automatically go to bootloader. If you want to install hspl for custom roms or android you have to go to bootloader for the installation.

Man, do you think they could fix this in warranty/quaranty? I have still warranty left on this one and i think I could get a new one/HD7 in return
Yeah. They must fix it if you dont damaged phone mechanically(maybe previous owner replaced screen) or you dont flash hspl magld android Leo is still The King i think. Here more opportunities than in HD7 On eBay HD7 cheaper than HD2 because WP7 os not good than android let me know whats up!

No, I've never dropped it or anything and when it came from the previous owner the usb didnt work, and he has never replaced anything on this model (his previous model was replaced to this, completely new one because his previous model stopped working with no reason).
Maybe I should contact the warranty Thanks for the answers, let's see what they can do!

I changed my old iPhone 3G 16Gb white, in terrible condition to this HD2 and paid 100€ Yeah android or WP7 would be soo super cool, the customizability is the thing why I chose HD2! It's amazing how there are still developers developing new stuff for HD2, I highly aprreciate their work

Still no reply, wow. Today I got a message that my phone will be back in two weeks. Slow service.
They also told me, that as the usb is LOOSE when you plug the cable in, it may be my fault. wow. So they're not repairing it for free i quess..
My phone is back..
Ok, got my phone back. The mohterboard has been damaged, they told me it had got wet. That's something what's not under warranty, so they're not repairing it for free. The repair would cost almost 500€ so it's totally not worth it. The report says: USB-Connectiong is loose (from other components), also injury with water in screen and motherboard.
Seems that the last owner already knew it's damaged and sold me a damaged one, as he told me it's working 100%.
So, I don't have a clue what to do next. I think I should try repairing it myself but is it worth it? Or worth trying? Where can i get the parts and tutorials how to do this? I think i gotta only repair the usb thingy but i'm not sure - I'd love to get some help now. Thanks in advance.

I had the exact same problem and it seemed that my cable was loose. You can try repairing it by yourself (it's not under warranty) or trying different pc/cable.
Try this : go to your pc and remove USB driver from application control panel,and after reconnect hd2.
Probably us not a cable problem, but drivers problems.
Bye.
