But my HD2 restarts even if temperature in the room is 25-26, so I wrote another email, the answer was:

Dear Mr@#@#@# Thank you for contacting HTC. Did you install any third party application recently to the phone? How do you charge the phone? Can you try to charge it from a diffrent end? Please try the below battery test: 1. Charge the battery to 100%. (Try another end ‘’ USB CABLE, Main AC, car charger 2. Disable from running or uninstall any 3rd party applications. 3.

For overcome this prolem, you have get your device in ice box of fridge about 1-2 minute (it covered by nylon bag). Now you can reset it. I did appllied this way very times and have good results.
[HD2 General] f4k3z:
hi.

this is my first post in this great website.

regarding all the heating issues i had that problem too when i got my phone. i tested several roms and radios and the only one that worked for me and reduced the heating problem drastically was:installing ROM from the MIri_elegancia and the actual radio i am using is 2_12_50_02

i have hd2- T-Mobile version

right now i m replying from the actual phone listening to music and connected tru wifi nd normal temperature for 1ghz CPU, may be u can give a try to that radio just remember that this radio is onlyfor t-mobile hd2.
[HD2 General] apaseall:
I had a problem copying some music files over to the sd today.

I eventually copied them over one album at a time.

During the last freeze before trying one at a time I noticed that the phone was getting quite hot. Hot in one specific spot. Best described as the part of the sim card that is hidden from view. I had the back cover off due to freezes earlier, so i could take the battery out. I found that taking the battery out briefly and not turning on for a few mins after reinsertion helped with the freezing issue. Now I am wondering if all the freezes were caused by over heating.

There appears to be no physical contact between the hot spot and the metal back cover. Has any one tried making a thermal contact in order to use the passive cooling of the metal cover ?
[HD2 General] br4nd0nh347:
Funny that they say this, because after using battlog I noticed that this happened (stop charging) only after the temp reached 35.5C.

Try battlog and see if the temperatures are close to what they say, otherwise it's not cool that it has such a small range. But because of the processor and since it was the first (technically second) of its generation, I guess it's expected.
[HD2 General] BomTempo:
Hello, I have same problem in recently. (rebooting while talking, while copying etc... due to hot in the bottom area.). Mine is UK T-mobile version but I don't use is with T-mobile... I asked them to repair. but they didn't accpet my request because of I am not a T-mobile user. Does someone know how to request repair it? I asked HTC, they also didn't accept due to T-mobile version. I bought it from ebay.... Is it hardware problem or software problem? Should I Flash the rom to HTC version?

I would be happy if someone give me a advise.... Worst case, I will buy a new one.
[HD2 General] :
well been having the same issue for the last 4 weeks.

Phone would reset under heavy use and started to hard reset itself as well. It got so bad in the end that opera would not open neither would ie. Youtube would crash the phone with anything more than 10 seconds use. Then whilst during a conversation it crashed.

I ended up using the phone within the last week with the cover off. I did use a gel cover case. I tried different roms and radios with no real success.

I finally sent the phone back to htc yesterday so i will update with their response when i get one.
[HD2 General] moav:
I'm having kind of the same problem.

Once it would only reset itself when it got a little hot. Now it just freeze and the real downside of it is that it'll will keep getting hotter until I'd manually reset it by pulling out the bat. This is clearly a serious problem because if I won't catch it on time it would slowly but surely fry up the insides.

I've contacted HTC and they sent me to the local supplier here in Israel, now I've bought it from Amazon back in the day it was released and Amazon won't cover any malfunction warranty, so I wrote them another letter and waiting for a reply.

I don't remember seeing this issue the first couple months I was playing with the phone. It's becoming summer here in Israel, and quite a hot one, but I surely notice that the device is freezing not only if it'd get hot, just a little hit is enough sometimes.

I'm as the rest of you guys trying to keep it going for as long as it can without disturbing it's royalty's temps but come on, I didn't buy an $700 device without WiFi, camera and music player that can't last 5 min.

We need to contact HTC as a group because it's quite obvious they're not replying to our demands (I've been waiting for 4 days now for the second email and some of you even longer). Even if some of us don't have a proper warranty, if after 3-4 month of use this very expansive device fails miserably, they should take responsibility and fix all of the devices from that production line.
[HD2 General] khaeid:
well, HTC are known that they give no **** for customer care, i agree with contacting them as group, do you have any suggestions for how to do this?

i see that by next summer no HD2 will stay operational anymore, a real ****ing device
[HD2 General] :
well finally got my phone back from htc today they said they changed out the motherboard so fingers crossed!
[HD2 General] Pentacrusader:
HTC staff is completely dumb!

look what they responsed:

Hello Mr##### Thank you for your quick response. Kindly note that the phone might switch itself off automatically, if it was overheated for security and safety purposes. Thank you so much for using HTC products. Respect & Regards, HTC TEAM

[HD2 General] R3dox:
I noticed this thread a while ago and I thought I was "lucky" that my HD2 didn't reboot due to heat, however, I have another issue that is pratically as annoying as rebooting.

I've had my HD2 since december (S/N HT9AZNW0....) and when the temperature started to rise (In holland, so not even that hot ;)) I frequently had a frozen HD2 when I returned it from sleep, or so I thought. Resetting it would give me issues entering my PIN (only the left side of my touchscreen would respond, so it didn't really freeze, I just couldn't move the slider to unlock) and I thought at first it had something to do with the software (most notably the auto-rotate that is included in CleanEX roms).

Turns out that whenever this happened, I could only fix it by letting it cool down (the lower side of the screen, near the hardware buttons was much hotter than the rest) before trying to start again. After testing multiple ROMs and mainly thanks to testing Android I figured it was a hardware issue.

So I mailed the HTC support and they told me to call the service call centre. He just typed up what the complaint was, asked me for my details and a courier came to pick up the device the next day. That was wednesday. Today, only a few hours ago I received a mail that my device was being returned to me (the repair centre is in the UK so they only received it today even :o), but it doesn't state what they did or whether they even found anything.

I'm happy on one hand that it's apparently going much faster than I was told (they said 2 weeks), but on the other hand I wonder whether I'm getting the shaft with "we found nothing". All in all HTC did provide rather quick support and if it's actually fixed, I'd be quite happy indeed. :)
[HD2 General] matthew33:
Well, well, well.....a year later and still no solution to HD2 overheating.

I was going to wait until I had the cash and get a HTC Sensation....but now i've thought about it....HTC can F**K off if they think they are EVER getting a sungle penny off me again!!!!!!

I'm here, in Wales (UK) and it's only 21oC outside and a LOT cooler where i'm sat indoors, out of the sun...and this CRAP phone gets to about 35 degrees, FREEZES...only option is to pull battery out.

Phone can be only 24 degrees, but as soon as I turn on mobile data.....FREEZE!!

Use wifi up to 40 degrees and it's fine.

Been searching every corner of the net for months, reading THOUSANDS of forums and other people with same problem....no solution.

I give up......getting a new phone, NOT HTC........and i'm gonna film a video of me smashing the HTC HD2 to bits and put it on youtube as a recomended fix!!!!!!!

[EVO 4G General] starplaya93:
I'm not sure why, but whenever I have my evo plugged into my laptop to charge and I attempt to reboot or turn on my computer it doesn't get passed the very first load up screen, doesn't even make it to windows boot up screen. It's a cheap windows 7 emachines laptop, but I doubt that has anything to do with it...

the second I unplug my phone, the computer boots up normally.
[EVO 4G General] superlinkx:
I'm not entirely sure, but I think its your computer's bios. I know a lot of people's computers won't start if they have their iPod plugged in. Try making sure that your computer is set to boot from hard disk first, cd drive second and flash drive third. That should work, or there could be a deeper problem. Basically, it isn't the Evo, its the computer.
[EVO 4G General] midri:
I had an MSI board that would do this when my iphone2g was plugged in.
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
This. I can never boot with my iPod plugged in, but it's no big deal.

-------------
[EVO 4G General] psx2p:
it is a settign in your BIOS, to disabel it disabel "Boot from USB" or just make sure your OS Hard drive is first in the boot order in BIOS. some people have this issue when a CD/DVD is in there system, and thats how to fix it, your PC looks on your usb for the OS.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
I have the same thing on my Toshiba it is not set to boot from USB, HDD is first and it still hangs at the BIOS screen. Not a big deal, I'm just saying it does it.
[EVO 4G General] oOflyeyesOo:
Yeah, I got the same issue with my evo last night, except on windows vista. But it doesn't matter, its just the bois in the motherboard trying to connect to it as a hard drive. I wonder if you could use your evo as a bootable device for linux or even windows, using it as a live cd to boot a operating system and use the ram to boot up, rather than installing it on the hard drive.

That would be pretty cool. Eh?
[EVO 4G General] Saturn2K:
I had this same problem with an external hard drive. In your BIOS, you may need to disable Legacy USB support.
[EVO 4G General] coolguy949:
The computer is looking for files too boot with on the drive. You have to either turn off USB drive booting or set it after the hard drive in the boot order.
[EVO 4G General] tempe38:
I had this happen once when my Vogue was plugged in and it freaked me out. I don't remember why I unplugged the Vogue but as soon as I did it booted the rest of the way. I was so glad when I realized that it must have been because the phone was plugged in.

Hi guys,

My cousins from L.A. are visiting me this summer.

They be here around 11th of July.

Laurentius26 and me wanna buy TMOuS HD2.

Anyone knows where in California my cousins can buy the phone.

And also how much the price is off contract, I know it was $450,-

But I think by now, the price has to be dropped aint it?

Someone please inform us.

Thx.
[HD2 General] Laurentius26:
Yeah would be great so I can test my roms on TMous device as well.

Thanks Xmoo. ;)
[HD2 General] Laurentius26:
No one can help us with a adress?

Please let us know. :)
[HD2 General] Tm5078:
check craigslist seen go for 200-250
[HD2 General] Paten:
Price is still $449.99 off contract from T-mobile. You won't be able to find a new, unused phone from any retail outlet for less here in the US.
[HD2 General] Svegetto:
Yep, in a Tmobile store you're still looking at $450 off contract, however on craigslist you can find new ones for around $300 (might be even lower since they had the 'all phones are free' on father's day last weekend, so I'm sure a good bit of people grabbed an HD2 just to sell....I almost did the same). Too bad they're in Cali and not on the East, then I could help out more.

Good luck

(PS, just in case you guys aren't familiar with craiglist, it's a site where you can sell/trade/give away stuff, but it's nothing formal like ebay)
[HD2 General] Laurentius26:
Thanks friends, appriciate this. :)

Hi,

anyone using TomTom 7.91x with internal GPS on this device?

If so, could you post the export of

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver

registry key?

Thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] qs2010:
i have TT on my diamond. its now hooked on my laptop

in which folder / where can i check this for you?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] buteo:
You need (maybe you have already) a registry editor, such as Resco or Total Commander (free). From the application you can navigate to the key and export it as a text (maybe .reg) file.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] qs2010:
downloaded it but cannot see you hklm or .reg file..

:confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] buteo:
If you are using total commander (I have the smartphone version, with a different UI...):

go up in file manager to the root (\) folder

chose Plugins, than registry

now you can navigate to HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet

select GPS Intermediate Driver as it was a folder

copy it to a folder of your choice (e.g. My documents)

Now you have a text file with the key contents and can post it!

Hope that helps

Thanks

[HTC Aria General] sorensenaj:
Is anyone able to tell me how these live wallpapers are running on the 600mhz processor? any slowdown? Is there any videos anyone can post of them being run on the HTC Aria? Thanks guys.
[HTC Aria General] tiga2001:
Well, most of the live wallpapers are running perfectly. I personally leave it on Acquarium Live Wallpaper. I believe Youtube has some videos on that. I have experienced no slowdowns on that so any Youtube video should demonstrate the speediness. The Super Mario Live Wallpaper does have slowdowns, though, even when I turn off "Low Priority" to give more CPUs to Mario Live Wallpaper; the rest of the phone still seems pretty snappy, though, even though the Live Wallpaper has slowdowns.
[HTC Aria General] K.I.T.T:
ROOT??

Damn!! I must have got a rooted HTC Desire from T-Mobile when I got mine because ALL the wallpapers work on my phone with no hassle?? There must be a problem with your phones... :p
[HTC Aria General] tiga2001:
No, the HTC Desire comes with live wallpapers in their Sense UI while certain mid-level phones like HTC Aria, Droid Eris, don't have live wallpapers in our Sense UI, which is why we have to root our phones to replace our Sense UI with one that includes live wallpapers. I'm not sure why they do this. But phones like ours are typically free while the HTC Desire is obviously not free, so that's probably just one way that the carriers are artificially separating these phones.
