red, blue, green and white boxes with the number 0.19 in blue in the top middle.....what happened??? How do I fix this????
use the memory card and put a ROM file and install the same rom you have before
how......
how do i do that when the phone will not go past that screen?
have you tried master reset? hold down send and end key while pushing soft reset button on side with the stylus.

Hi, as title says, my screen is "broken". It displays the bottom of what should be on that part of the screen (around 1cm of the screen at the bottom). As far as I am aware, that part of the touch screen works.
Screen is white otherwise, with coloured lines going down the screen, and grey lines going across. Anyone seen this before and or how to fix?
Have no idea how it happened.
Also is there anyway to perform a HARD reset without having the screen working?
Thanks in advance for any help.
try hard reset or other rom
hard reset:
while gps button and internet button pressed - press reset button.
flash new rom:
1.if you have hard-spl download any rom, if don't download only official rom.
2.rename .nbh file to POLAIMG.nbh, copy to sd card, while camera button pressed - press reset button.
I know this is a bit of an old phone now, but I'm hoping someone might be able to help...
When I switch the phone on, it gets to the Windows Mobile screen and then just hangs. After a few minutes, it turns itself off.
So far, I've tried the following;
1. Soft reset
2. Hard reset
3. Remove battery, put on charge (red light), replace battery (amber light), hard reset
4. Removed battery for 2 weeks
5. Praying
6. Swearing
Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thx

Hi
You could try starting the device in bootloader in order to re-flash the ROM, or flash a new ROM. Methods for this are:
1) Press the soft reset hole button whilst holding camera button fully in.
2) Remove the battery, then re-insert it and switch the device on by pressing the power button but again ensuring the camera button is depressed fully.
3) Remove the battery and re-insert it. Don't switch the device on but plug it into a Windows PC using a USB cable whilst, you guessed it, depressing the camera button.
If you can get into bootloader (three coloured screen with some yellow writing) then you can probably reflash the device. It sounds like a software problem not a hardware problem but I could be wrong on that.
If you can't get the device into bootloader mode you have a problem that is more complicated to fix, about which I can't advice.
Best wishes

Hi,
Thanks for the reply....I couldn't get your method to bring up the bootloader to work, but tried pressing Power and OK while doing a soft reset.
This brought up a screen with 4 horizontal bars - red, green blue & white. Text at the top says;
HERM100 (text in white)
IPL-1.01
HERM100 (text in yellow)
SPL-1.04
In the white bar is the word 'Serial'
Does this sound right?
Then it just hangs on this screen - is there something else I am supposed press on the phone, or do I do something via my laptop with activesync etc?
Sorry for the additional questions, but I've never had to do this before.
Thanks
An update....
After noticing that 'No GSM' appears on the splash screen, I have now found this page which I think might answer my questions.
I'll have a go at this tonight

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?
I did it!
Ok, found out that all my contacts were synch'ed with my gmail.
I hard-resetted it, and it works now.
Thanks for your help
Lol well done!
For people that dont have push/exchange contacts etc, always backup using myphone, spb, sprite or other software.
Cant tell you enough how important it is to back up, unless you like loosing everything right?
Greetz.
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..

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.
Thank you for replying... but sadly no, it didn't work
I do have warranty, ill take care of that..
Thank you again.
did hard reset and returned to factory settings. all my installed applications were lost. pity.
All I wanted is to install the @#$%% russian keyboard!

If its brand new out of the box, id take it back and get a different one. If its second hand, see if you can get into bootloader. If you can you can then flash a stock htc rom, if not its back to the shop.

i have the same problem But how i can Backup when phone is turned off
Hi.! I need help fast.! I am an American. My name is Kenisha and I have the HTC Touch Pro 2. My phone has been acting funny everyday since I recieved it from AT&T. I try to use the keyboard but if I slide my phone too hard, the phone will power off. Same way if I want to slide my phone back to its original position. I do not know why this is happening. The latest problem I have had is that my phone has a weird screen on it. Four colors from top to bottom: Red, Green, Blue and White. I tried to reset my phone, it had no effect, I tried to take the battery out and see what happened. Also, I tried to reset the phone by pressing the the call button and end button and power button all at the same time. Again nothing worked. The words also say that there is "No File". Please help because i do not know what is wrong. I have only had this phone for two months
Take it to an At&t store, and get it swapped, did you try to install a rom or something
dropped my tf101. Now when I try to boot the katkiss revolving circles dont stop going round and round. I am able to get into twrp though.I am aunable to restore because I never did a backup. Also I was getting red artifacts all over the screen. I would lightly tap the underside of tf101 and it would make the colors change dramatically on the screen and show red lines going across the screen. after tapping the tablet a couple more times the display colors are normal again but it still wont boot. What can I try?

If you can get into TWRP you need to download the latest Rom and Gapps to a PC and install them onto your sd card) assuming you have one - if you don't ? my advice is get one (or two or three). Put sd card back into tf101 - boot to TWRP and then wipe all (see page one of the KatKiss 4.3 developers topic on this for exact wipes - oops just took this from Timduru's page
Go to recovery
Make a full wipe / factory reset (you can skip this step if you're already on KatKiss-4.3, if ever you encounter a problem do the full wipe and try again before reporting )
Format /system
Flash the rom
Flash optional kernel
Flash gapps
Wipe cache/dalvik
Reboot
As to the flashing of the screen - the fall could have done something to the video drivers hardware (but fingers crossed)
Good luck
Ziggy
after putting in my micro sd card i saw there was a back-up on it. I was able to restore from it and boot successfully. However my colors were off. . shaking/flexing/jolting the tf101 results in things like the whole screen turning blue green with lines across it. I'm not seeing any red lines anymore and now the olor red is missing all together. This makes white look blue and red look black. I was able to confirm HDMI out to tv still produces image/colors correctly. I'm afraid hitting tablet anymore won't bring red back and kill image entirely. Now since its fall yesterday a light tap on TF screen results in screen to go dark momentarily. Any chance this can be opened to fix missing red? Another problem since fall is vol down button is not functioning right. Seems like its stuck depressed. Is the vol down button necessary for advanced options?
Everytime I reboot I get bootloader white text in the top left of screen thats only supposed to show when vol down is pressed. Then the next screen says press down -vol for wipe option but I it doesnt move when i press vol- ( however I think I can actually initiate a vol- button by flexing the pad. Sounds strange right? Anyway I gues that means I can pick the wipe data option from that screen if i have to. after that select android/ data wipe screen I notice now every time I boot up in bottom left it says "SAFE MODE", what does that mean?
Your VOL buttons are stuck down. I am not excactly sure how to boot to safe mode, but it is due to one of the VOL buttons being pressed during the boot up process.
I would suggest taking the bezel off and trying to carefully bend it so the buttons move freely. I wrote a guide for it here: http://www.transformerforums.com/fo.../10501-rs-guide-power-lock-button-issues.html
I was able to unstick vol-, but after hitting tab a few more times trying to get red back, now there is nothing on display. I confirm hdmi output is still working. Anyone service these? Otherwise i guess i get a bluetooth keyboard/mouse and use as desktop PC?
Something i can fix myself by opening?

Most likely it is a loose video or backlight cable. Open it up and take the bezel off per the guide I posted. Then remove the back cover. There is one screw on each corner and then 3 on to and 3 on the bottom between the screen and back cover. The video and backlight cables are in the middle near the charging port. Make sure they are properly seated. Power it on reassembled to see if it works.

I can tell you that when i press power rhe screen does light up. Its just grey screen. Does that mean back lighting isnt the problem and im wasting my time opening tab?

That means the video cable is loose or that the video card is bad. Since it works via HDMI, it should be a loose video cable. The video and backlight are separate cables.
I tvook the case off. Im not sure what to do. Ive got some basic colors on pad display again but it wont boot. Circles still spinning. I cant ssem to enter twrp either. I tried holding vol down power ro reboot and i quickly see green label on bottom of screen and then goes dark. Would twrp be visable from hdmi out?

Here are some pics I took on the bottom side by charger. what should i reseat. Nothing seems movable .can you tell me how i can get into twrp since i currently can't boot. I tried holding vol - and power but i didn't see opption to hit vol +. I tried to hit vol + anyway but i just got a grey screen. I tried holding power vol+ for 10 secs. to cold boot. still just spinning katkiss circles. Do i need to get into APX mode (hold VOL UP and POWER for about 10 seconds and use EasyFlasher to re-flash TWRP?
Bumping thread
What button combos can i try to get back into twrp since i currently cant boot or enter recovery? Is it the multi color wire ribben that i should be adjusting?

I believe this is the display cable that tends to come loose after being dropped, if not that one, a similar coloured and positioned cable, I did have a video showing the exact procedure but can't find it atm
EDIT - Found it

thanks for the vid. I was able to get display working again including red so this will work even if the problem is your display stops showing all colors and starts showing lines and other artifacts. It seems I answered my own question. you cant use twrp with hdmi only. native display only. Although it could be the commands would still work though you wouldn't be able to see what your doing i'm guessing? so in twrp i did a second recovery of my 4.2. katkiss backup since dropping my tf since I was again just getting spinning circles when booting and I'm now able to boot again. Hopefully this doesn't keep happening where tf wont boot and I have to keep recovering. Seems like dropping it may have done more than mess with display?
