[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Why not get it checked out professionally?

Maybe it's a damaged tracer inside the antenna sticker. It shouldn't cost much to get an HTC service centre to access what's wrong (although if it does require a new motherboard and they don't cover it under warranty, it'll probably be uneconomic to repair. Make sure it's fully reverted to a from the factory state (no hardSPL and original ROM/Radio/SPL) before taking it in though.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ldjocke:
Well, that is the next logic step.

As I said in my first post, I have read on other forums aswell as this where people have had problem with this exact same thing and if anyone of them had it fixed with software I'd like to know.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sarge21rvb:
You could buy a broken one on ebay for parts and just swap out that motherboard for your own instead of sending it to HTC. Its fairly straightforward to replace it.

Regards
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
If you've restored it back to an as from the factory state (with all original ROM/Radio and SPL) and it's no longer behaving as it did when it was new (test with the memory card removed) then that proves the difference must be due to hardware changes/failures if you test it in areas where there's known good 3G coverage and the same sim gets good 3G coverage in another phone. If you haven't done this yet, I'd suggest you do (you didn't say if you changed back from hardSPL to OEM, it shouldn't make a difference but at least you'll know it's 100 % original). Preferably test it with an HTC WM 6.0 ROM/Radio/SPL. If that doesn't make a difference, before rushing out and spending money on motherboards etc, get it checked out by an HTC professional - the small cost of such testing may save you more money in the long run on parts that aren't actually needed. A work-around that's been used to get reception (although not in 3G) is to change the band just to GSM from Auto.

Good luck finding someone who's been through your exact scenario but this is something you can do in the mean time.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ppelleg2003:
Hi ldjocke, I live in Italy and my Kaiser works fine with 3G (checked with Vodafone, TIM and 3 operators...)

Looking at band selection in phone settings, I can found:

Auto

GSM(900+1800)+UMTS(2100)

GSM(1900+850)+UMTS(1900+850)

UMTS(2100+800)

Choosing Auto it succesfully connects...

In Italy GSM uses 900 and 1800 and UMTS uses 2100...

Where do you live?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ldjocke:
Hello Ppelleg.

I'm in sweden, and got thesame settings as you on my phone.

Afther reading through this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=335074 I'm confident that it's a hardware issue. Sending it in and will be back with information.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ldjocke:
Just wanted to close this thread.. I sent it in for repair and as everyone said in the thread that I linked to in an earlier post it was the 3gcircuit that was burned.

But.. the price it cost me to fix it is the same as buying a brand new HTC HD2 (6880sek) and that's just not right.

Still looking for anyone that has gotten it in written from htc that the tytn had a couple of faulty boards. There should be some way around this massive amount..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
What did the the HTC repair centre had caused the board to fail? What did they say when you questioned them about having heard of such an issue with older models of the phone? If the price was going to be astronomical, they should have contacted you to get the go-ahead first (unless you'd given them authority to go ahead no matter what the cost).

Some points to put to them.

Take out the battery, leave it alone for some time, put it back in.

Or a better solution would be to try another battery. Sounds like your battery is spent.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gregwee:
I've done a search as well as looked at the stuck thread on Touch Sense mods, but didn't see any mention of editing/deleting icons in the Home Screen tabs at the bottom.

I'm using one2free as my service provider in Hong Kong, and bought my HD2 through them. They've put a tab next to "Home" with shortcuts to all their service, which I don't use. I'd prefer to edit the links to ones that I actually use if possible, or else just simple remove the "one2free" tab from the Home screen tab. There is no option to remove that tab in the "Home Screen Tabs" customisation menu.

Here are two pictures of what I'm talking about.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi gregwee, hit "Menu" at the bottom right of the phone, then hit "Personalize Home Screen Tabs" and then uncheck the program that you want to move. Hope this helps.

[HD2 General] Ankon:
Very well written. There's one point I'd like to correct, though. You can set the contacts tab to show Outlook pics even with Facebook integration. Here's how:

1. Start editing the contact.

2. Tap on the contact picture icon on top right.

3. A list of available pics for the contact should come up. The second of which is your Outlook contact pic, if you have one saved. Tap it.

4. Voila

Now, can you please link the reSTART and ireflect icons? I'm curious and want to check them our. I did some searching, but the results returned are staggering.

Nice review, lorin.bute.

I have switched back to this device after 4 months iphone 3Gs usage. This device is the best I have ever used in the past 7 years. The screen reacts and the softwares run just as fast as iphone 3Gs but with rooms for my customization. Just looks forward to the upcoming WM6.5.3 to enhance this device, and most likely WM7 in 2010.
[HD2 General] ahdai:
The battery life is indeed disappointing. Well HTC wanted it to be slimmer than the iphone.

A desktop cradle and a spare battery is a must i feel. We are all using a relatively new battery. Just imagine 6-12 months down, it may not even last a day. A cradle apart from showing off the phone also prevent from tripping the cable while charging.
[HD2 General] freyberry:
Well, if a spare battery is a must for the HD2, then what do all the iPhone users do?

The iPhone has even worse battery life and you can't swap out the battery...
[HD2 General] borgqueenx:
i use mobile chargers.

click it in the iphone and it starts charging. works perfectly.
[HD2 General] freyberry:
Yes, I had one of those, too, for my iPhone 3G :D

That was more of a rhetorical question, but I can add that those chargers are less convenient to carry around than a second battery.

Hi,

I got my HTC HD2 only a couple of weeks ago, and I already got a problem with it :(

The thing is, that I can't boot it up properly; when pressing the "Turn on/Turn off/hang up"-buttom, it boots by comin' up with the white screen with the green "HTC"-logo in the middle and some system information in the left buttom.

Afterwards the animation with "quietly brilliant" comes up and the Windows logo with the orange background comes up - and then it turns off and boots up again.

I've tried to...

* reset it (not hard reset - I have some contacts that I don't wanna loose).

* charge it up (I can, when the windows-logo appears, see, that the battery's full)

* pull out the battery for several hours

Please help - I'm very sad about that I used tons of money on a device, that now won't work.

Is there any way, where I can solve the problem without loosing all my contacts?

Boot problem..

Hello there,

I bought my HTC HD2 like 2 months ago, and the first two days it froze like thrice !

Now, suddenly i find it turned off then when i try to boot it up, it get stuck on the white screen with the green "htc" and information in red to the bottom left. It hangs there!

It did later show the following black screen with white text:

"The device is unable to boot because either you have turned off the device incorrectly or tired to install an application from untrusted source. Press Volume Up to reset your decice or press any other button to cancel. This operation will delete all your personal data and restore the device to it's factory settings"

but the thing is, i can't press anything at this stage, nothing happens....

I did try to hardware reset, charge, remove battery and put back, etc..

:(
[General Questions and Answers] Dark Ninja:
You tried:

1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons, then press the END/POWER button shortly and release it.

2. Release the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons.

3. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.

If that dont work try flashing a new rom using mtty.

If that still doesnt work I would expect it to be a hardware problem, i would send it back to htc or if without warranty take it to a Phoneshop (or open yourself), probably a wires loose or something.
