[Q] HTC HD2 Black Screen: out of ideas! - General Questions and Answers

Hello there,
I have recently received an HTC HD2 from a friend of a friend of mine. It didn't work and was stuck at a black screen.
After receiving the HD2 I saw that the HD2 was in a boot loop of some sort. Every time I would turn it on it would vibrate once, and then turn off. Then it would vibrate once again and it turned off again. The backlighting of the screen would turn on, and then after a certain period of time (maybe like 5 seconds) they turn off again.
Somehow (by luck, maybe) I managed to boot the phone into windows mobile 6.5. I still got a black screen, but I could hear the sound that the phone makes after it boots windows. I then attached the phone to the computer and downloaded the latest HTC HD2 Windows 6.5 ROM and flashed it to the phone as standard procedure. Now, every time I turn the phone on I hear the sounds of windows booting up and I can connect with it using windows mobile device center. I also hear sounds when I push the buttons on the phone.
TL;DR-> Black screen, phone reacts to input.
Question: will replacing the screen fix the phone? Or is it some other component failing. Booting windows proves the phone isn't bricked, right?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, you can always try to boot into three colored screen, by turning the phone on while holding the DownVol key at the same time. If this doesn't work you would need to buy a new screen to see if that fixes the problem.
Heres a link to amazon where you can buy a new LCD, you can also search how to change the screen on Youtube

Stuck due to power failure!

Hi guys
I was upgrading to smart1_wm6 clear when I had a power failure with my pc. Now, my prophet (s200) is stuck on a white screen. I first have a startup screen telling me that my OS is now 10.1.0.011, then I got a white screen and a sound and that's it. What can I do? It seems that I can't connect with my pc any more too.
Help please!

Start your device in bootloader mode (hold the comm manager button for about 5 secs while pressing the reset) and then run the upgrade again.
While in bootloader the screen will show three colours. Once in bootloader the device will connect to the PC.
*eek* mp apologies, but personally i always do flashing on my laptop (its nice to have the battery there)
yep, you are right. Normally I do too, but I can't any more since I have upgraded my laptop to Vista. Now I am forced top use a pc, because upgrades don't work on vista.
Thx KTA for the advice, I didn't know.
I had a similar problem and thought I had to send my device for repairs! A BIG thank you for this information!

CECT w800 wont boot

Hello, i've been searching around, and cant find anyone with the same problem, so i'll go ahead and make a new post.
Today i got my new phone, and i have a problem turning on the phone after just 40-50min use.
My problem is that every time i try to boot the phone, the screen just lights up really bright white, and then shuts down (this happens no matter what battery i use, it came with 2)
The same white screen appears when i connect the poweradapter. While its running from the poweradapter (not running, just making a fan-sound, tho i doubt its any fans in there) it doesnt react if i press the power button, so i am suspecting the batterie(s)' are the problem.
Thanks for any help

Orbit 1 no display

Please help! 1st time this has happened today. My display has gone off. I soft reset the phone, it loads up the o2 screen, but goes off at the green windows screen. The rest of the phone is ok; flashing green light still ok, ive tried phoning it from another mobile, all ok.The home screen will appear but when i touch the screen it immediatey goes off. Ive a feeling its the windows sofware? I haven't done anything different to the phone at all for this to happen.

phone works but blank screen and no input

my phone works, it can connect to my computer, it used to vibrate and make noise when i received a call, it just stopped accepting input and the screen stays blank - it used to power on but all black screen.
i thought it was a flash problem so i upgraded to the latest energy rom, now naturally devoid of its connection to my phone number it no longer vibrates when it gets a ring, just sits there dead. the screen has not come to, ive attempted to hard reset it a few times, nothing works. it is still capable of connecting to my computer and being recognized for what it is, an HTC Fuze.
Its out of warranty so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Korean V500N screen won't turn on

It is the second time this happened. Last time it fixed itself after half an hour.
The screen is always pitch black and the device stays warm.
Most of the time it is boot looping with a black screen, the 5G led on the back keeps blinking in different colours. When connected to a PC, in Device Manager I can see two "LG-V500N", then it disappears after a minute, and comes back, repeat.
Sometimes the device boots and stay booted with a black screen, I can tell the device is on because it is listed in "adb devices". Unfortunately I don't have any authorized device to connect to it via adb.
I am not sure what I can try, I have pressed and hold power + vol down many times but the screen remains black.
I also have trouble switching off the device, it seems to either stay on or boot loop.
After letting it rest for a few hours, switching it on shows this screen, with a white/gray line at the top of the screen, and after 5 seconds it switches itself off again.

Get into download mode by powering off the phone and pressing volume up while having it plugged into a PC. Then find a guide to flash a kdz lgup. You will probably lose data or have already lost it

It seems the phone will not stay in download mode for more than 5 seconds, it powers off after showing the big download mode screen for 5 seconds.
I will try to leave my phone on the charger for some time and then try again.

I managed to get the device to enter and stay in download mode, however the screen stays pitch black and I am not sure if I should continue flashing.
Would you go ahead and flash it if you were me?
The device is currently on Pie, I will probably try flashing a Pie KDZ first, before an Android 10 KDZ.
Sometimes there is a brief moment where the screen comes on, that's when the LG V50 logo shows before entering download mode.
Did an UPGRADE with V500N11r_00_KT_KR_OP_1017.kdz, which should be the same firmware that the device is already on, it flashed successfully, didn't seem to help, screen remains pitch black.
Did a REFURBISH with the same kdz, didn't seem to help either.
The phone seems to continue to boot loop after the REFURBISH flash. When connected to PC, LG-V500N shows up and then disappears repeatedly. Sometimes I can hear a sound effect being played from the phone, sounds like it has booted and the sound probably came from the initial setup screen.
Seems the phone has stopped boot looping, it is on the initial setup screen. The screen remains pitch black but it responds to touch.
Not sure where I can go from here.
Edited:
The screen has come on briefly once for a few seconds, it is on the initial setup screen. I only had time to switch the language to English, then the screen went black and the device seem to have crashed (no longer makes sound or vibrate as I randomly tap on the screen)

I think it's some faulty hardware at this point. You've tried everything possible as of now.

Hi! I bought an LG V50 and exactly the same things you described happens to me, the screen starts, it shows the logo, but then it goes completely black, but phone starts, sounds are heard and the touch screen work. But not image, screen is black. Could you find out what hardware defect it is? It's the display module, or will it be the motherboard? Thanks
Nope, I have sold the phone as parts.
