Definitely hardware since it went straight to the bootloader.

Ok here's the thing. My phone suddenly stars acting really weird after a year of problem free use. the volume rocker started to go bonkers, almost like the downward rocker is always on. rebooting is really difficult as flashing mode turns on. The only way to turn it on is to hold the home button at the same time as the power button to turn it on.
once inside the os, the volume rocker is permanently downwards, so ringer is always at vibrate, and working with the phone is impossible.
i tried restarting quite a few times, restored original firmware and installed latest energy gtx rom, all to no avail.
i think there is a problem with the circuitry or something which might be causing this. any thoughts on how to fix this? I have had this since last november with a contract on tmobile UK. any ideas about where to get this fixed should this be a hardware problem?
thanks in advance
Yeah looks like a hardware problem with the rocker seemingly pressing the downward button all the time 24/7.
See if you can play around with it to loosen the rocker button.
Otherwise it's an open the unit to fix it which will void warranties, etc.
thanks for the reply. i'll take this to tmobile. lets hope they solve the problem.
I have a bizarre problem with my HD2, which seems to be hardware based ... kind of....
*Sorry if this ends up being really long*
Basically my Volume up and down buttons have stopped working along with the windows button and "back" button.
However, the "home", "call" and "end call" buttons still work, but not properly.
When the phone boots you can briefly see the windows (not HTCSense) volume indicator pop up just before Sense loads, which didnt used to happen.
Once the phone has loaded up only the call, home and end call buttons do anything, they light up the buttons when pressed, and the "home" button does indeed take you "home" and the "end call" button locks the phone and turns off the screen, however, pressing the "call" button doesnt bring up my call list, I have to use a soft key.
I also cannot bring up the hard reset menu, holding the volume keys and booting doesnt do anything, which is why i think its hardware based???
Another interesting problem is that the "up, down, left, right" soft buttons dont work on the keyboard (since this all started)
I had this issue about 6 months ago, I flashed my phone, to no avail .... but about 6 hours after flashing it, it just started working.
The only think I have tweeked on the phone really is installing CHT as I've been booting to Android for the last couple of months, which now I cant do as it hangs after about 5 seconds of booting.
ANY suggestions would be great.
Same problem here I got the phone from craigslist and same problem as above. Can anyone tell as if is hardware or software related problems and if anyone solve this before ?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Sorry I've only just replied, but I ended up having to send mine to HTC, they ended up replacing the main board (apparently). So definately hardware. Sorry bud.

After Rebooting the HTC Radar yesterday, it reboots every time in "Serial Mode". There are some options on the Screen like APPSBL, Image SRC and Factory Reset". Every time i long press the Power Button, it comes back to this Screen. Today in the Morning i preset Power + Volume Down + Camera Button and it boots up normal. All Data are there, but i cant use the Hardware Volume Buttons anymore. If i press this Buttons, nothing on the Device responds.
Does anyone have a idea, what i can do? The rest of the Device seems to work ok.

Now after some days, they work both. First only the volume down, some days later, also the Volume Up. I think there was some steam in the shower which disfuncts the buttons. but thx for your suggestion.

Naaahhh...! its a job.....! just keep your phone away from moisture.....!
It happened out of the blue, my phone's volume suddenly went full. Tried to lower the volume with the Lower vol. button, it doesn't change anything! So with natural instinct I pressed the Increase vol. button instead, and it went down to muted! After I got home, I tried turning off the phone-- but that was stupid. My phone now stuck in the Factory menu, and I can't make any choices there. I checked the volume buttons physically, but nothing is wrong with it.. I'm using Android 2.3.6, and also, there was this time before I left where my hands were wet and I pressed the volume buttons, but I don't think that's the case, because the volume buttons almost has no gap to the insider. My friend said that this is a problem with the program, is there really a problem like this? If there is, then I would like to know how to Hard-reset my phone without going to the factory mode, without booting, just directly from a PC. Thank you!
My mom's tablet is having some issues recently, but the most important issue is the power button. We thought its broken/doesn't work, but it somewhat worked when press and holding the volume up button when increasing the volume. It shows the Power options, same when press and holding the power button. Is there something wrong within the buttons? How can I fix it?
btw the other issue is the memory overflow restart issue when the tablet freezes, then beeps for a long time, and finally reboots. Any fix for that, too?
Anyone?
