What ROM are you running on Android? AND are you NAND or SD??

Sadly it has nothing to do with the rom loaded on your phone. The end button is right on top of the ribbon cable for the digitizer. Your phone needs a new digitizer. I had the same thing happen to me. You are not alone and its a common problem. I would say Its actually a fault in the HTC design since the end button puts direct pressure on the digitizer ribbon and eventually its becomes damaged. I have a new hd2 now, but I use button savior on android. It allows you to use a the touch screen to press the end button.

thx for ur advice . probably i have to buy another screen once (.

HD2 No Screen

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.

[Q] Brick or hardware failure?

Hi guys,
I bought a second hand mini pro, and flashed (rooted, unlocked bootloader)it with the help of one of the several guides. with Simplexity and MiniCM7
It seemed to work fine at first, but now something odd happens.
I can only turn the device on (working) when I keep the keyboard slided out. When I start up with it slided in, The screen is turned on but no image appears: It stays black.
When it is turned on (slided out) I can use the phone normally. But when I slide it back in, the screen is frozen and won't react to touches.
Putting the phone in and out of standby (slided out) will have two possible outcomes: Either its usable as normal. Or it simply won't come out of standby at all. The phone seems to react (sounds) to pressing the buttons on the keyboard though.
I used Seus and manual methods to reflash to stock, try other kernels, but the problems remain.
I think it's the hardware that's failing but maybe this can be caused by the flashing as well?
Are there any methods to rule out one or the other?

I'm responding to the thread's title : It's a hardware failure.Brick means you can't even power it on/flash mode.If I helped click the "Thanks" button.Also,try using nAa-11 my and x10man's ROM called XMP Rom and tell us if you still have this problem.I understand that you posted this here (If you post it in questions section almost no one will respond )so I won't tell about that.
(Oh, my bad. Mods feel free to move my thread)
I was afraid of that. I'll try your ROM as well, but I'm afraid its the hardware too.
Thankfully I only paid 30 euros for it
I think the flex cable is gone bad, i have the same problem here. My mobile doesnt respond to any touches. First it happened only when i would slide the keyboard. But now its dead as a whole

The XMP rom didn't fix it, so I guess you're right. Would a flex cable (those are the flat orange ones right?) be expensive?

I hope you fix it
This is the cable we are having a problem with, i have given my mobile for replacing this stuff as i couldnt get this locally. This board houses the LCD and the digitizer and the buttons connect to this. The black cable goes to the motherboard. Its pretty simple to take apart the phone, but take care while doing so. Another thing its that, when you are opening the display panel, its better to use a guitar pick instead of a screwdriver and open it at the latches, that would avoid damage to the outer plastics.

Thank you
But .. what is the digitizer ?
You have a link ?
my gf had this phone and this problem too. the reason was that the cable from MB to digitizer runs under the power button. And if you press power often, it's going bad.
Not really down to end button use alone. Main issue is the bond of ribbon to digitizer (touch screen) breaks down over time. Have had it happen on my own personal HD2 that has had light treatment & hardly any button use. Also seen it on an old stock hD2 almost fresh from the box. The things fail regardless of use really ... early & revision Digitizers seem about as bad as each other. So far our repaired handsets, Longest repaired being almost 1yr are still working great on $18USD replacement Digitizers ...

[Q] Instal ROM to fix responsive buttons?

Hi XDA communtiy,
I've been breaking my head with the following question:
My responsive buttons stopt working.
It goes better after a factory reset, but then again. No home, back button...
It is a real pain in the *ss.
I don't think it is a hardware problem, more a software problem...
Do you think that if I install a ROM on my device this would clear my problem?
Does anybody has the same problem?
It began shortly after the android update 4.1.1.
Greetings,
Krikke
Hope you didn't dropped your phone?
You can try the roms f you want ...(Dn't forget to backup)

Yeah, you can try inserting the screen assembly of your current device into the one with cracked screen, if the responsive buttons are working correctly there and you don't need the second phone. Otherweise I don't know, can't really call it a software issue. What about logcats?

[Q] At&T Optimus Soft keys failed

Hello guys,
While I was using, all of a sudden, the soft keys and and the lowest area of the touch screen is not taking any responses. The touch screen works fine in other areas. I tried enabling navigation keys on screen which comes at the bottom end and hence that didn't work. .The screen is responsive above that. phone never fell down. It was well protected.
Tried resetting, didnt work. Same issue is there even when I open TWRP. The navigation keys on twrp also will not work
What do You guys think? Is the keys dead?
Kindly help

That's a hardware fault. If you believe that it has not suffered any external damage, you may want to open it up & make sure the ribbon cable for digitizer is completely seated to the board.
Otherwise, you may need a new phone.
I'm sure there was no external damage. Well protected with case, Screen guards on, Never fallen from my hand. Not even a single scrach on phone
Will it work if I change the digitizer?
:crying: I have same problem too
I'm gonna try replacing the Digitizer.
