my hd2 just recently started the same thing! all of the lower ( call, home, back & power button) work but my screen isn't responding to even unlock it. Let me know also if anyone has figured out a way besides having to buy a digitizer, please!
Right now i've not been able to use my phone for 2 days. The screen won't respond. If a call comes in, i can't answer it, i can't text or reply any.... Freaking annoying. The worst of it all is that i have no warranty and i've had this phone for only 2months now. So i'm actually stuck with this stupid phone. Grrrghhhhh........... I'm thinking of buying a digitizer and opening it up too. But i'm also afraid that i might break it. Really really annoying.
OKAY GUYS, the pressing down hard on the red power button works, but only for like two or three days and then u got the same damn problem again :)
THEN i tried when you push down on the top of the red button and then u press down on the bottom of the red button hard with ur nails and IT WORKED!... For like two or three days as well.
SO i tried pressing down on the red button with a pencil, worked for 2 min and now my phone does not work at all! So, i need help asap b4 i jump off a cliff. THX!
Me and my wife both have the HD2 and I flashed the Android 3.2 a while ago....blah blah blah onto both of our phones. Her phones touch screen stopped working out of nowhere. I tried bvuaixxx's (below) response and thank you very much.
**************PRESSING DOWN HARD ON THE RED BUTTON DID THE TRICK*************
youtube is amazing and is such a life saver! it has helped me to do many many things!
Push down the power button very hard then it works. My hd2 is having problems with the back button hardware wise. the light flickers. if anyone has a solution to that pleaaaaseee let me know as the warranty has finished. thanks :)
Bro the exact same thing happened to me, first it started of that if i wanted to unlock my phne on i had to use any other button other than the power button, and it would work. But ever since yesterday my phones touch screen will not work at all, all the physical buttons still work but my fukN touch screen wont work -_-
If you have this same problem just get a new touch screen digitizer and it will solve your problem. Obviously it will happen again with time. These phones have that problem.
i think this happen becos the conector of digitalizer and motherbord is under the power button..as we presing the pwr buttn mny times i think tht cable cracks..
ok ve got this guy that fixed it raphezider or something like..he said that the digitizer is below the end key,so u shud just press it hard enough so it cud nudge the digitizer now mine works and is smoother!! try that!
I droped this phone from about 1.50 meters of the ground and is so broken but touch screen is working very well. If you wont i will give you link of video thet i make.
so did you fixed the problem or find a way to temporary fix it? I have the same issue and it happened recently. your video description is exactly the same problem as mine.
oblem just happened to me today , it frozen after fall down , i took out the battery , every tihing not working ,then i just press everything in the device for long time hahaha , then it works !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS RIGHT NOW MY PHONE IS NOT RESPONDING... EMAIL ME @ dominique.carter015@gmail.com or facebook me that would be the shit cuz my life is riding on this right now
Same here... screen doesn't respond. I did a hard press on the power button for about 10 second (press on the power button when is the phone completly off), and WHOLLAAA. Fucking works so far (don't know for how long).... YYIIIIHHHAA
Despues de desarmar y armar de cambiar roms a mi querido HD2 encontre el fallo real, se trata del botón de colgar al ser oprimido toca el flex de la pantalla táctil eso es todo al tiempo de tanto uso lo llega a cortar y mi solucion para no hacer una gran inversion fue quitar este boton hasta la parte donde se ve el maldito flex asi llevo mas de 2 meses y no me volvió a fallar (tapé el hueco con un sticker negro y ni se nota ademas instale el tap tap y apago el HD2 desde la pantalla)
My HD2 had the same problem, however it does not have any crack. but it decided for itself when it wanted to be touched or not (LOL). Then I tried to push hard on the power button and it did work. So thank you very much for the advice, I would not had thought on something like this.
It's called water damage you fool, why are you complaining? I bet you used your phone in the rain and play with it in the bath right? Well these phones aren't waterproof and just using it will wet hands is enough for some water to run inside and short something out like what has happened on my desire.
I tired the temp fixed, but it only worked for 2 days. HTC wants to charge me 125 to fix it. Considering I only bought it for 75 on CL... not spending the money. I love the phone, its unlocked, but damn, I hate it keeps doing this...
iVE had if for over a year and it worked fine until a couple weeks ago. Shit is soo annoying. I cant even answer calls. To tell the truth this phone has been nothing but headaches since i got it. waste of my money!
this only works for a minute if you take the battery out and press in the center where the battery is and press and hold down the power button for a few seconds with a key or something hard and flat it should start back working but dont hit the power button at all it will lock back up and you will have to repeat.
i dont usually comments on videos but im going thru the same problem & it was pissing me off that i started pressing the red button so hard and rapidly that it started working again :)
My phone did the same thing, If you go to google search for the HD2 ROm t-mobile update to that, screen should still not work, YOU gotta Knock the shit outta the lower screen near the power button or hang up and keep doing it, it should work but if you hit that button again, knock it around again worked for me when i got mad
if u hold firmly on the END CALL/POWER button it will unfreeze the screen... its a button key malfunction.. thats why it wont matter if u replace it because as long as the POWER button has been hit or what not it'll freeze the digitizer
i figured iit ou,,,t its the screen,,, i had another phone which i swaped screens and it works like new now,,,, not just the digitized but the whole lcd,,,,, its the soderings that melted from the digitized,,, its a design flaw,,,,
What you need to do is this The digitizer, which controls your touchscreen, is under the hangup button. Try pressing the button bit hard till it nudges the digitizer a little. It worked for lot of people, hope it does for you! :)
my htc hd2 works now..i know the solution..i can now turn it on and tap on the screen but somethimes it goes back..wtf i dont wnt this thing..i thought it was the best phone ;(..im a girl..got 18 ysterday..just add in my facebook account..stefanel_garcia19@yahoo.com..then msg me about this so i can reply faster..cause im not opening youtube daily..dont worry i will respond u..or when you tink that im just wanting friends..its wrong..UNFRIEND me if i didnt respond you..tnx,just a little solution
I have the same problem...it's just my 18th birthday yesterday...and i'm just using my HTC HD2 phone...then suddenly in the evening the screen did not works...and i thought its just hang or something...and its just lock so it cannot turn off instead i remove the battery...and im just tired so i fell asleep..when i woke up i put the batteries again then its not working again..until i search on youtube and anywhere but there's no solution..pls HELP me..i dont want this...anyone knows how to fix?;(
You might be having a problem with the digitizer. Inside the glass there are extremely fine strips of metal conductors or sensors whatever! That over time could have stopped touching each other and the plug for the digitizer is pretty much right under the end button so that is probably your problem. Get other a new phone or digitizer
ive been lookin on ebay the last week and seen new screens for like 35.bux . i busted mine after the yellawolf show last week . the whole screen is cracked up but it still works great . lucky my friend had a hd2 for his back up and gave it to me for free cant beat that. these are dope ass phones you should at least get a screen and try to fix it yourself .
the problem is in tmobiles older screen the connector bethween de motherboard an the screen lcdand touch i fix this problem in others case this problem is resolving weldering the conector
I have the exact same crack on my phone...and I have the exact same problem. Mine will randomly decide to work and then decide not to work...SO ANNOYING. Have any luck fixing it?
@eggyjookbox honestly i gave up on that piece phone and bought a my touch 4g i sold my hd2 broken and everything for just under 200 on ebay so thats what i suggest
@Cevapi2k i love yopu so much right now lol ,m i have a crack om my scrren. so i decided fuck it and removed part of tyhe screen around the power button and just kinda prodded it with my nail and now i've fixed the screen working , so kinda chuffed :)just a small section of the screen tine , really not enough to noticwe so thanks
your digitizer is broken. the glass is fused to the touch screen so you need to replace both. this wont happen to me cause I use a case. ben is hot? seriously?? ugh...
@corrections alright um its not the broken glass its the touchscreen or a connection on the inside hundreds of people are having the same problem and my brother had the same exact problem but his phone wasn't cracked
