My phone no longer switches to landscape mode, I flip it open, the screen stays in portrait mode. Any typing or input that I do doesn't show on screen until I close the screen. I've tried to reinstall the ROM and am in the process of trying a new radio/ROM install as well, anyone have any ideas before I take this back to Verizon and get a new one?
Rom: DCD 3.2.5
Radio 3.39.10
Update: Things seen to have a taken a turn for the worse, the handset is no longer turning on after installing radio 3.42.50 via sd card. The backlight lights, but has no display.Arrgh!
Sounds like a hardware problem to me. Hopefully you can get it working enough (at least booting) to take it back to the store.
OK, I took out the battery for 20 minutes, did a soft restart, the phone boots up to the Today screeen, I'm thinking its time to flash the original ROM and Radio and make a trip to the Verizon store.

Something similar happened to me. The center navigation button did not work, then one by one other feature started to not function. I finally to purchased the eBay part all is back to normal.
Hardware, IMHO
Called up verizon, new phone comes in tomorrow, it looks like the display driver and button inputs were failing, I can reflash the original VZW ROM and RADIO now and try to relock the phone before I have to send it back

Hy
I have quite a big problem with my TP.
I run NRGZ latest rom with my UC settings and S2U2, and after a week with no problems at all my pone has become self-aware
That means that he, by himself (phone is on desk and no body is touching it) starts to opening camera (and taking pictures) starts to opening comm manager, starts messing with my (his) volume settings (increase, decrease ring volume).
First I thought that maybe some of setting got fuzzy (but for 6 days it worked perfectly fine) so on reflash my TP to stock rom and flash it again with custom rom (|RAPH|ROM|6.5|WWE| ★ EnergyROM 'Warhawk' (SYS 23016) ★ | Built Aug 11 | w Manila 2.1!).
With latest flash I disabled UC and didn’t install any other app but issues are still here: randomly opens comm manager, camera, volume settings.
I have to mention that I really look out on my phone (in my country it costs 1000$ in retail) so it didn’t fell, took a bath or anything like that.
My phone is still in warranty and I will flash to stock rom, radio and SPL but before that I liked to know what the cause is.
I had the same problem. After installing NRG's ROM, my phone began to whack out just like yours after a few days. Ultimately, it started getting really hot, and the battery was no longer able to charge when the phone was on - it would discharge down to zero when plugged in and could only charge with the phone off. Going back to stock didn't solve the problem, and I ended up having to get the phone replaced. I have no idea if it was related to NRG's ROM or just a coincidence as I've used NRG's ROMs with no problem before.
Ghost?
Maybe NRG's ROM is so cool that unseen want to use it too
Seriously, flash an official ROM and then flash back to NRG's ROM. Some unexplained behaviour has been attributed to NAND corruption which the an official ROM flash corrects (by reformatting in the process). I had a different weird issues and were fixed when i installed an official ROM and then NRGs ROM.

already did that and no difference
could it be HW issue???
Me too - flashing to stock made no difference. Some kind of permanent hardware damage was done to it (and not from dropping or from water or anything obvious). Maybe the cooked ROM cooked the processor or something.
Hmm, do you think you could get it replaced by reflashing the stock goodies back to your carrier? Or if you really looking for debugging the issue, try sending a pm to cmonex of hardspl fame..
I'm having the same type of problem with my fuze. The volume just zeroes itself out; you can actually see the slider visually go down the slide scale, past vibrate to silence. If you adjust the volume up using the side volume up button, but the slider will just go right back down. It doesn't seem to matter what ROM I use. This is the only problem with the phone. But when it starts this volume adjusting, no other programs can run as the phone stays in the volume adjust screen. Sometimes it works for days without problem and then the problem will not go away, even after a hard reset. Any help??? I'm just a noob that knows very little programming; just enough to get in trouble.

Mine has the scroll wheel operating out of its own. So when using Opera it zooms in and out all the time.

did you (or anybody affected with this or similar issue) find out how to reproduce this "bug" because with my luck when i go to repair center everything will work just fine
Mine seems to act up worse as the battery starts to get just a bit low on juice. The phone is the most stable when I leave it plugged into my computer using the USB cable.
My phone would only charge with the phone off. So I recharged then followed the directions on www.blownfuze.com (or maybe .org - can't remember) to get everything back into shape for a warranty return. I actually took it into the warranty center in person and they tested it while I waited. Obviously it was all fine because they handed me a brand new phone.
Qeustion
My HD screen is off, and i cant seem to get it on again.
I just was working on it 1hour ago, took it out of my pocket and see that i have no screen.
Rebooted the phone, but no succes .. i see the screen turning on, but it light-gray (backlight) but no actual info/colors etc, also tryd a soft reset, no succes.
I have the Energy ROM Com5 build from 8July with the new 2.12 radio rom.
Could it be that in some way the screen died?
Hope someone can help me, im @ work now so i cant connect it with the PC.
When im home im planning to reflash the device ..
Thanks!
Weird
I just pressed a button and the screen turned on, and the colours/info just slowely fade away ... weird.
Could it be that the touchscreen is not oke anymore?
Or could it be a problem in the radio/rom i use? (and therefore a reflash could fix this?)
Hope its a easy sollution, otherwise ill be flashing it to stock and get it fixed by HTC.
Very very strange.
It seems to work again.
Anyone think i should reflash it to stock and try get a new one?
Are these signs of a screen going defect?
I dont know, first phone for me with touchscreen.
I would suspect a faulty screen, if it is still within warranty i would deffinately get a new one, however yes, try going back to stock first, see if it helps, it may be just a bad flash.
screen problem
I've had this and similar problems with my HD2, now on the 5th replacement from HTC in just 6 months of owning the phone. I also had the same problem on my HTC HD previously. Press the power key and just the buttons at the bottom light up but no response from the screen. Also had exactly the same problem your experiencing where you can faintly see the screen but not lit up. Flash it to stock rom and return to HTC for repair.
BEWARE!!! take some pics with date stamps of your handset before returning. They sent me 3 handsets all with the glass front panel not fitted correctly. Check the return handset carefully, you should be able to feel a lip between the casing and the screen as the screen is set a fraction lower than the casing. THis should be uniform all around. They tried telling me that i had damaged it myself despite calling them as soon as the handset had been delivered back to me.

That's 'sleep of death', which affects loads of htc devices.
Oke i will stock it soon and return for repair.
I think its idd a screen problem, cause when the screen isnt functioning anymore, and when i put my ear on the glass, i hear a little squishing sound, like air is escaping .. it doesnt do that when the screen shows info/colour.
Please help!
Since yesterday, after plug off from loading, my HD2 (German t-mobile ROM 1.77, Radio 2.07) doesn't switch of screen. In the past week, I haven't changed anything or installed any apps.
By pressing 'off' key, screen becomes black and will be revoked with screen lock after few seconds. When screen light gets low after predfined time, it will come back will full light after few seconds.
I've tried hard reset, installed stock ROM from t-mobile (include radio ROM) - nothing changed.
Does anyone can help?
GSIAK
I've seen this issue periodically here on the boards. From what I've read from the users who experience this issue, it is likely to be hardware related. One way to test this is to turn off the screen when the device is plugged in (charging)? If the screen will stay off when plugged in then I have some bad news.
The only solution I have seen is to send the device in to HTC for repair. Sorry.
I believe it has something to do with the micro usb being defective.
Hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
Many THX, the device is within warranty and I will request for repair.
this sounds like the "car kit mode" hardware issue.

Look at the end of the thread for the reason it is happening, and you will need to have it repaired or replaced.

I'm using an HD2 on T-Mobile, still running the stock Windows. (haven't gotten around to slapping android on yet)
A.) ... was at work today, took the phone out of my pocket, and I couldn't get the screen to go on. The hardware buttons on the bottom would go on, and I could feel it vibrating and booting up when I powered it on, but after hard resetting(removing the battery, I mean) the screen still wouldn't go on.
.....so I go home with it powered on still, pull it out of my pocket and BAM! the screen goes on and it looks normal... but....
1.) Now the bottom 5 hardware buttons won't go off when I lock the phone. Sometimes they're dim, sometimes they're bright as if I'm using it. sometimes they flicker on and off.
2.) the screen won't brighten beyond 20%. It adjusts 10-20% fine, but sliding it from 20%-100% does nothing.
3.)In addition, whenever I hook it up to a PC to charge/transfer files, I SOMETIMES get the "This Device would work faster in USB 2.0" message. that I never got before these issues. This is confirmed by slow transfer speeds when this happens(400-600kb/s instead of the normal 3-5mb/s). This leads me to believe it could be something internal in the phone...
Worth taking to T-Mobile? Not sure what they can do for free, I bought it used about a month ago.
I Tried a factory reset recently, didn't do anything to help these problems.
I tried running it on another battery, same issues.
Think putting android on it could help any?
XDA Devs is the best around for this type of thing, so I figure there's someone on here who could give some advice. I love the phone, but these problems are awful! Thanks so much!
try re-flashing the stock ROM first (factory reset might be not enough), then if the symptoms reappear I'd think of warranty repair
Two days ago 2 smalls parts on the bottom of my screen stopped working to the touch. i press they keys on the keyboard on those stops, which are "W and E" or "B and N" in landscape.
I tried rebooting and also did a re-installation of my Rom "NottachTrix 1.3.1", but it doesn't work.
When i removed the battery cover the entire screen becomes very unresponsive and if i press the top of the phone, above the power bottom, the screen goes crazy as if it gets pressed everywhere, which leads me to believe that it's definitely a hardware issue.
I called AT&T and i can get a replacement phone for $125, which would be the Samsung Captive Glide.
However; i have to return my atrix once i get the phone.
Obviously I have an unlocked bootloader and also a different rom.
Does anyone know what i should do, as far as returning the phone to it's original condition. Should i bother locking the bootloader (if it's possible) or should i just install an original rom?
