[Q] HTC HD2 won't turn on<don't recognise Charger or USB - HD2 General

Hi,I have a Android gingerbread 2.3,haspl v.3,MAGLDR113,it's second time my htc block and dont want to restart from the buton,i have remove the battery and it dosnt want to turn on ,there is no screen,the battery was charget,but the red light don't light when i plug the cabel,in my PC dont recognise usb,nothing and the phone,i try for 1 day to remove a battery,but no result,1st time when it happens it work,but for a week i can't use it,Sorry For my English,Some ideas what can i do before i took it back in the store

sounds like it could be a simple flat battery. when magldr is installed you cannot charge the phone unless android is running, so when it is off it does not charge.
if you can try another battery, or your battery in a winmo hd2, that will tell you if its teh battery.
If you have a spare usb cable (any type, doesnt have to be a hd2 micro usb cable) cut end off, bare red and black, hold red to + and black to - on teh battery for about a minute, which should give it enough power to charge.
Also check very carefully that you dont have a bent battery pin from all teh battery in/out. they bend easily.

i hava a Bat charger and charge the bat all night,and the morning it show me that bat is charget,put it on the phone,but nothing ... cant turn on

Maybe battery is dead. Do you own a volt meter an can check the voltage provided by the battery? It shoud show up about 4 volt.

i took the bat to my friend with devace to check the battery,and everything is OK,but the phone didn't turn on,Can i reinstal the Android ?and how can i do it

Is there a program that can connect to the phone and erase everything

To wipe the phone install the HD2 toolkit, you can download it here.
It includes every tool needed for maintaining your HD2.
Be sure to install the drivers!
Start the program and press the Task29 button, follow the instructions provided. When it's finished your HD2 will be fully wiped, so you would need to reinstall everything.
Do so by doing a MAGLDR repartition. After that choose MAGLDR update recovery to flash the Clockworkmod recovery.
Then go into the Clockworkmod recovery and flash your rom.
Now your HD2 should be fully wiped
BUT! If your PC doesn't even recognize your HD2, and you can't even get to the bootloader screen by pressing and holding both volume down and the "end call" button. Then it's probably a hardware failure.

Magldr repartition flashes cwm so no need for the update recovery step. That's for, well the clue is in the name,,, updating the cwm version on an already partitioned instal.

Okay, thanks for clarifying that!
Didn't know it worked like that, I only use CLK.
Sent from my HD2 using xda premium

I've seen this and similar a few times, when left on charge overnight, and upon waking the phone is totally gone. I've woken up to a fully hard reset phone myself, once, not dead but something weird happened.
Electrical surge, perhaps? Overheated circuits? Who knows.

Somehow the phone start,I have put on my router,and plug in USB all night,in the morning i remove a battery,remove a SDcard put back batery,plug usb and it go,I replace infromation from the card with onother sdcard,flash the phone. 10x for the help,maybe now everything is ok

I've same problem after similar conditions.
Mine is 512Mb HD2 running Andorid on SD
- while using in extreme conditions: very low network signal, hot ambience temperature, using GPS and downloading data throug 3G
- the screen freeze on image and not respond on touch neiter button
-after 2-3 minutes phone temperature became very hot and screen again on freeze
- removed battery (for power off button not responding)
- insert battery
- no power up, no green LED with AV adaptet, no USB recognized
I'll trying to charge battery but i don't have a table battery chager.

Could you please repeat me what you did, since I didn't get the first part, what did you put on your router (what kind of router please)?
I've tried using my phone with another HD2 phone's battery which is working (and which also started with my own battery?!) but my own phone wouldn't start at all with the other battery...
The battery wasn't fully charged, but did it have to be, if so how long should I charge the battery with the cut USB cable for it to be charged enough please?!
TIA
P.S. I've tried a voltmeter on my battery and it said 4.14V (should it be 4V exactly?) and should I even try the cut USB charge trick again (since I've tried another phone's working battery)?

Ok if I understand you correctly you have tried your battery in a working HD2 and it worked. Then you tried the battery from the working HD2 in your device but your device still did not boot up. If this is correct I do not feel your battery is the problem, but still check the battery pins on your device to make sure none of them are not slightly bent and not making contact properly.
Also if you can provide more info on what you may have done to cause this or what happened when your device reached the state it is currently in. This info can help others and me help you better.

I have a similar problem.
The phone won't start, it gets to the white htc screen sometimes but quits within a fraction of a second.
This has been so since the first Android boot hung (I suspect I have not followed the steps accurately enough...). I have charged, decharged and recharged the battery using the suggested USB-cable technique, but this was of no aid so far, so it's not the battery. Pins and all's fine.
It's someone else's phone, too, so it would be rather unfortunate if I bricked it.
Are there any other common reasons for this behavior? Most tutorials rely on a PC connection, but as it does not recognize such a thing, that's a bit of a problem.

Finally the same problem here.
Battery status was about 70% and running smoothly (WinMO Custom Rom) since installed.Unlocked the Screen and tried to start programs.
The Icons were lightened up but nothing happened.Tried to softrestart...Nothing happened.
Removed and reinserted the Battery.
=> Not turning on.
-another fully charged Battery => nothing
-charging on Charger => nothing not even charging light
-plugged into (running) pc => nothing not even charging light
-5 hours in the fridge => nothing
-charging over night => nothing
Any hints ?
Thx for the goot work around here and greets from Germany !
Sebastian
PS If anyone got one to offer => contact me. Dont like those situations

Bad news!
Seems like your MB is gone...:crying:
Maybe one chance left for a JTAG attempt to a local service shop...

thats what i was afraid of
at least it happend only one hour after i made a backup
thx for the reply !

Tutorial how to recharge phone when battery is drained!

So we all know the major problem with the WP7 roms.
You can not charge your phone when battery is completely drained!
Now here is the solotion. This requires no apps, no mods. Just your own handeling!
So what to do when battery depletes?
1. Plug your phone into a powersuply.
2. Turn on the phone and keep the power button and both volumes buttons pressed. (this is called a hard reset.)
How to hard reset HD2, view the first 17 seconds. Ignore the VolUp!.
3. You will receive an message saying:
''This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer defailt. Press VolUp to restore manufacture default, or press other keys to cancel.''
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. Do not press anything. Let your phone be for a couple of minutes. I keep my phone laying for a minimum of 10 minutes.
You won't see the phone charging (no orange light in upper left corner)! Believe me it is!
5. After 10 minutes restart the phone. If ''press any other button to cancel'' does not work. Take out the battery, keep battery out for 5 seconds. Restart phone.
6. Phone will start. After windows phone loading screen you will see the phone is charging. If you kept it on power. If not, you didn't follow my instructions.
Tip: to avoid battery drainage!
When the phone is making the bleep noice warning for critical energy level, turn off the phone and keep it at a warm location. Ideal is to take out the battery and keep that to as warm as possible. Batterys barely drain when they are in warm enviorments.
I am not responsible to any damage done to the phone!
I done this multiple times, all times it worked fine for me!
If it helped, Thank me and leave a comment
when i'm on the road there is only one warm place i could think off, besides my armpits...
but your method works, have faced it once.
Thanks for the conformation.
To bad the HD2, is kinda big... doesnt sit that well.
magldr works as well
whats not clear is if the battery controler is in use with this method, so be warned, dont leave it too long, if you charge it for no more than an hour it will be ok
mains power adaptors usually give out 1Ah, take in to account that the screen is on full, this should give you around 700mA, more than enough to get in to windows to charge propperly
USB charge will be half that, most USB ports only give out 500mAh so an hour will give you approx 200mA again, thats enough to get you in to windows
Overcharging a battery can have some side effects, firstly is reversed polarity, meaning it wont take as much charge in the future, or it could heat up a lot, which isnt good for anything, the life of battery or the device its self.

That is true, but I recommend trying it for a minimum of 10 minutes keep it on charge. and as soon as windows pop on it recharges normally.
And didnt knew magldr did the job as well, the only problem is if you deplete it to badly it doesnt go past the HTC screen in the beginning.
all this is completely unnecessary.
easy fix solution:
1. Pull the battery out and USB cable out (if connected and charging)
2. Plug the USB into the phone and allow it to charge without a battery (it will not, duh!)
3. Put the battery in while the HD2's connected to the USB charging.
4. Observe that you can boot all the way back into WP7.
enjoy.

I did not know that.
Well thank you. Although I am not such a big fan of taking out the battery when its not needed. I mean the change is short circuits with the connecting points when taking out, when powered or putting in when powered it larger. Now I heared from a comment above that MAGLRD does the trick as well. Now that is far more easier then all the others given above, Yours and mine
good tutorial on this. I cant believe the battery wont charge when dead thought this was a faulty error of the phone.

theres 3 methods on here,
bootloader charge
magldr charge
remove battery charge
all three will benifit frm heating up the battery, do not cook it, or it may blow up
there is a 4th way but i dont recomend it unless nothing else works
take a usb cable mini or usb printer cable
cut off the end connector
strip back the wires and seperate them all, you want the red and black ones
make sure all the wires cant touch each other, cover the 2 unused wires with tape i
then connect the black wire to the (-) negative and the red wire to the (+) positive
tape them in place
the 3rd contact point on the battery isnt used in this method
finally connect the other end of the usb cable to the computer
dont leave it too long and when disconnecting remove the computer end first

I recommend this one.
It bypasses the system somewhat. Don't know what happens when battery is entirely drained, but it is worth a try.

If it does not help. You can buy a new battery.
Click Here. Its not that expensive, a official new battery from HTC is around 30$is around 20Euro's.

Thanks for this timely post Lemonspeakers. completely drained the battery listening to music on loudspeaker and didnt hear any warning. Couldn't hard reset then checked this thread.
On putting in the battery after charging the empty phone, the screen kept cycling between mgldr and HTC splashscreen so booted into sd android and the phone is fine.
I assume I didnt charge the empty phone for long enough (30 secs), I didnt warm the battery and I suppose I could have left it cycling until it charged up a bit more.
Thanks again

your phone was not starting either? like it was black even though you pressed hard reset? how long do i leave it the empty phone to charge??
I "charged" it for about 30 seconds, suppose you could do longer

This would be funny if it wasn't so serious.
Have you tried warming the battery? Hairdryer warm
Dont know if you have mgldr so maybe try the hard reset option

That might work.
Otherwise maybe a phone repair shop, there is equipment that can charge your battery outside an phone. An emergency charger its called if I am not mistaken.
you could inform there.
its showing symtoms of it bring bricked. cause it doesnt charge, it doesnt turn on without the battery, and yeah conclusion is that its dead!

[Q] HTC HD2 died and now won't charge.

Hi,
Since yesterday my phone (leo/hd2) died and when ever i tried to charge it it would go in to a boot loop then back to normal booting (as in wp7 bootscreen) but now a day later it won't even charge! I have checked the pins tried different cables and still nothing. Also there is a small red tab on the bottom of the battery near the connecter which used to be pink.
Maybe your battery is completely drained? If so, check here.
it won't even turn on so i can't perform this > does this mean it's dead?
have you tried a different battery because you have used a WP7 rom and when the battery drains out it can not be charged ( unless charged on another phone) so i recommend you using a different phone to charge your battery or get another battery into your phone
Thanks, i'll try that now. But does the red tab mean anything?
Hi,
I have this very often. Problem is that your battery is completely drained and the phone doesn't have enough power to start.
This is how I solve it:
start charging your phone
when it switches on, keep pressing the power on/off button
you'll arrive in the magldr boot screen.
just wait for about 5 to 10 minutes
start windows phone (it's possible you'll have to remove your battery and put it back in your phone).
Voila WP7 starts without any problem.
good luck!
try an external battery charger/universal battery charger. (i recommend keeping one handy whenever u r messing with wp7)

Piece of crap?
Whoa, cannot agree there...
If you carefully follow all the tutorials, hints and tips here at xda, HD2 runs fast and smooth with several OS´s of your choice.
However, there is still a possibility that your device is defective. Or the cable. Or whatever. But that doesn´t make HD2 a piece of crap in general.
Lol, its the charging port and a defective rom once i fix both i will have to go back to miui ;( Is there any rom which allows charging while the phones off.
Hi,
It's not the rom, it's magldr...
Koen
What do you mean? Do i need to downgrade? Can you charge while it's off?
if u have 1.13 and u can reach the magldr screen then plug it in,quickly switch it to usb masstorage mode. but dont keep it there for long as the screen will be awake all the time.
try keeping it that way for 15-20 mins,it shld give u enuf juice to boot it up

what he meant was that,its not the ROM's fault that u cant charge it while the phone's off,
you see,whenever u plug in a switched off phone,it quickly boots into the magldr mode,before booting ANY OS( or any version of any rom ),and thats y it wont charge while switched off(unless future magldr provides this function)....the only reason WinMo cld charge your phone while switched off is that it dint need MAGLDR before booting
try the usb mass storage method if possible,it works
hope i helped ya
dont forget to thank all the hardworking developers
I always have a problem with aftermarket chargers and charging through USB. It won't chargers in both scenarios....any body has an idea on that?
When my HD2 completely drains i just attach the (original) charger and it will start cycling boot...but eventually the battery will be charged.

[Q] HD2 WP7 Mango out of battery keeps rebooting

I don't know if it is the same kind of pb linked to the SD-card, but there is mine:
I have just flashed the Mango with marketplace ROM;worked perfectly! (a bit slow sometime, but nothing really bad). I used it a lot today.
I think I ran out of battery tonight, and now when I plug the phone on power, the phone boots automatically (so stops charging...) and loads to DFT screen few seconds and shuts down (because of the battery?) then charge 1 sec, then turn on, .... etc.
Of course it restarts before the battery charges again after the system loading.
(Question here, does the battery keeps charging when the phone is booting? as the orange charging led is off.)
I might have found a way to stop drain the battery trying to start and stop at the magldr menu... but still don't know if it charges because the led is off.
Any recommendation/advice for me? (To avoid the auto-boot on charging)
(I can't (don't want to) re-flash, because the battery is almost dead!)
Thx
EDIT: I have used the original SD-card of 2GB, I also have a 8GB/Kingston/class4 that I didn't want to format, but if I need I can do it.
It seems that the phone is charging when it is on the magldr menu because the system loading goes much further (but the points animation is very slow when it was very smoothy before, like 1 transition per second)
Still loading after 2min
1. SanDisk 2GB Class2 (Bundled with EU HD2) - could install WP7, card was recognized, after one day of using and installing several apps the system starts to crash, random reboots each 20 minutes or so.
2. Kingston 8GB Class4 (Bought 1 month ago) - WP7 installs but can't get over startup configuration, it stucks, rebootings and Hard Resets won't help (tried a bunch of different ROMs, nothing helps)

seems dead for both cards, but I will try anyway with the second one if I can't boot the system anymore!
After 30 min charging on the magldr menu the phone starts again! Everything seems to be ok, but I am still wondering WHY it is not possible to charge the phone without it to start and try to load windows... Or maybe I missed something...?

I had the exact same problem let phone die... couldnt recharge i just used task29 wiped magldr let phone charge while was off :-\
The reason it wont charge during boot is reason why ur keyboard/mouse dont work and flash on and off during actual booting of windows... dont know what process that is .. but i can only imagine its something from going bios (using those drivers) then going to the operating system (utilizing those drivers) and inbetween doesnt work

I got the same issue. I put it to charge and refrained from entering my pin when it asked to, until the phone got a full charge. Looks all fine now...
Out of topic, may I ask how much storage your phone shows in settings with your Sandisk 2gb card? I also got the same card, and it got only 35 MB total storage and 0MB left. That's right after installation...

Sorry, but I don't know. After booting, it rebooted few times then couldn't find the SD-card anymore, so I formated the SD, took the other and reflash.
Then new one (kingston 8GB class4) is showing 7.22 total / 6.80 available. It has been working great today, and still
The best way to get around this problem if you run your battery dead is:
-Hold both the volume up and down keys while the phone is booting
-It will ask if you want to delete your data, just leave it as is for 10-15 minutes
-Pull the battery and restart your phone
The battery doesn't charge while booting up, so that's why it gets stuck in a boot loop like that.

Hum, just pressing the red button enters the magldr menu, maybe safer than the erase data menu There you can also charge the phone without draining too much.
Yes there is this kind of a problem this is how i solved that!
First of all i rebooted, the device was almost %0 percent of battery.
I just plug it to electricity and close its lcd and wait. I dont know why.. Charging device takes very long time. But it still works. Battery drainage is because of huge LCD, i think the battery drainage caused by the lcd canot be compansated by the charging state, so it keeps rebooting everytime.
When you get you first opportunity, please try turning off the lcd.

Yes there is this kind of a problem this is how i solved that!
First of all i rebooted, the device was almost %0 percent of battery.
I just plug it to electricity and close its lcd and wait. I dont know why.. Charging device takes very long time. But it still works. Battery drainage is because of huge LCD, i think the battery drainage caused by the lcd canot be compansated by the charging state, so it keeps rebooting everytime.

unless your charging from a laptop which may only give you 200mA the power from the USB will be more than enough to keep it alive with the screen on. the reason it keeps rebooting is because your sucking the last remaining mA out of the battery, like a sponge, it takes several squeezes to get all the water out, DO NOT keep doing this, or you will need to invest in an external charger or attach some wires directly to the terminals of the battery.....or use a WM HD2!
as others have mentioned, put it in to bootloader(best choice) hold VOL DOWN on restart and theres no chance of deleting data here! or put it in to magldr.
dont leave for any longer than 30min though, get it charging in windows as soon as its got enough to boot, its unclear if the battery full cut off works in the bootloader/magldr
I've been using the Magldr to charge my battery on the occasions when the battery gets too low. Today I managed to wait to long I guess. Even in magldr my phone sits for a minute then reboots itself. I also tried the hard reset screen. I don't have an external charger. Any ideas for me?
I have the same problem when I use my HTC charger. But when I use my Samsung charger (came with my Galaxy Ace) HD2 boots normally. Also I noticed that when I use the phone on HTC charger battery keeps droping. I think it uses more power then the HTC charger charges. With my Samsung charger i dont have this problem.
I tried charging in MAGDLR menu, but that only drained the battery more. (v1.13) I had to buy a universal charger ($4) to get my phone working again.
Any idea why this hasn't been fixed in MAGDLR yet? Or might there be an alternative?
For now, I think I will program Tasker to shutdown the phone at 10% battery...

The best way to get around this problem if you run your battery dead is:
-Hold both the volume up and down keys while the phone is booting
-It will ask if you want to delete your data, just leave it as is for 10-15 minutes
-Pull the battery and restart your phone
The battery doesn't charge while booting up, so that's why it gets stuck in a boot loop like that.

worked for me! thanks

My HD2 won't power - Please Help!

I woke up this morning and It appeared that the battery had ran out during the night as the phone was off.
I attempted to turn it on and nothing , plugged in usb charge and nothing (no lights no reaction to me pressing power .. nothing)
I had a spare battery ... nothing
I have tryed hard reset but since I get nothing that also does nothing.
Please help , any ideas?
I have stock winmo6.5 with americandroid running from sd (it would have been running android last night) , no new installs etc being this setup for months
1. First remove battery for some time, let it rest at room temperature.
then put battery with some charge into HD2, double check that battery connectors are clean
2. plug in wall charger into HD2
3. press and hold red reset button inside HD2 case
4. turn on while still pressing red button
5. after some while release red reset button
6. pull out battery repeat from step 1 if it doesn't boot up
try this several times, if this doesn't help you should look into motherboard fault.

Thank you for your reply , I have tried what you suggested but as of yet I have had no luck. Do you have any other suggestions?
you say you had a spare battery, was it charged?
you also said you were running android from SD, would your phone normally boot to android by its self or would it go to WM?
MAGLDR is a bit of a pain when it comes to the battery. if your unsure about the spare battery then get yourself an external charger and charge one up, there is a way of doing this manually with an old USB cable but id suggest get a charger

It booted up in stock wm6.5 - no rom / radio updated since I got it from HTC , I would then use the file explorer to navigate to the android folder and boot it that way.
99% of the time I would have it running android (only time it was in wm6.5 was when battery ran dead and I had to turn it back on)
The spare battery would have had charge , my friend has the same phone so I shall try her battery tomorrow but I'm thinking its not the battery
The strange thing is that it was working when I went to sleep, and I did nothing to it , no apps installed or roms installed etc and next morning I got nothing!! I MISS MY PHONE lol

HD2 Help . Doesn't turn on

Hi,
So i Had this Htc HD2 . I got it as a gift from USA. I've used it like 2/3 month. I installed MIUI rom on this device. And then i hot another phone and didn't used that phone anymore. But today i found this phone and i tried to turn it on. Then I saw that the phone isnt turning on. It just stays black and just vibrates. I dont know what is wrong with this. I live in Bangladesh. We dont have any HTC customer service stores here. So i need help with this. If anyone can Help please let me know. and by the way its TMOUS HD2.
Check battery pins are contacting correctly.
Check battery voltage - lower than 3.2V try charging the battery externally & not in the HD2, if you do not have an external charger you can use a USB cable & cut mini/micro usb plug off then touch the red+ & black- wires to + - battery terminals for about 1 minute or bit longer if battery completely flat then put it back in HD2 & see if can boot.

Are you sure it's not just out of battery? If it had NAND Android installed on it via MAGLDR and you didn't bother turning it off then it could have just run out of charge. Since you can't charge the phone when it's off in MAGLDR, you'll have to cut open a USB cable which hopefully @samsamuel will come along and tell you about since I always forget what has to be connected where.
If you know it isn't the battery, then can you boot into the bootloader (hold vol down + power)? If you can get to that then you can try flashing a WinMo stock ROM to confirm it isn't some sort of hardware issue.

Tried that. Nothing happened. The phone just constantly vibrates.

I wasnt sure if it was battery or not. And then i recharged the battery with a external charger and tried to turn it on. But no luck. it stays just the same. and i cant even get into boot loader (tri color screen). NO nothing. it just vibrates.
