Hello to all, I read alot on this forum, but decided to register as I believe that there are very intelligent individuals on this forum.
Yesterday I tried the "HTC Function Test Program 1.03g" on my HTC Wildfire (WWE_2.22.405.1). I did this by calling the number: #*#*3424#*#*
I did a "Display Test" which displayed a white screen and dissapeared by pressing the back key. After doing that test I noticed the screen doesn't sleep, in other words the screen remains on with back lighting.
Today my phone paused and I saw a very colorful graphic on the display so I had to reboot / removed battery.
The screen was blank, after trying to remove the battery etc I managed to boot untill enter sim code but right after that the screen went blank again.
Now I have figured out that the phone is running normally, the screen is blank though. After reading in the forums I successfully reinstalled the RUU Ver. (RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed)
But still blank screen. My feeling tells me that the display has somehow been disabled. I cannot boot into recovery mode (Volume-down+power on) as the screen is still blank. No matter what I do, screen blank.
The phone seems to still be alive.
Any ideas what I could try? I have done this test on another phone now, and the screen is staying on now, so Im worried if I reboot it, I will end up with blank screen.
Please give me some ideas on what to try I would be very grateful.
SOLVED!
Sd-card was faulty! very strange!
Hmmm, very strange indeed! Still always good to know thank you for posting

Hi there,
I'm having strange issues with DHD. I've read a few threads with issues like this, but symptoms are always slightly different.
Yesterday, I've connected it to the charger (the battery was empty), and when I tried to turn it on, it just did 3 vibrations and orange notif. LED started blinking. When connected to the USB, the Windows recognizes device as Qualcomm, and further reading suggested that the phone is entering service mode, which is normally accessible with Power + Vol+. I've also found out that volume rocker can be the issue, but in my case I don't see anything wrong with it, it's working and looking like before.
No matter what I did, it always did the same, it won't even go into recovery (Power + Vol-), screen always stays blank, the only activity I'm getting are flashing LEDs and vibrations.
Also, phone is charging when turned off (battery removed and reinserted). I've charged it for a few hours yesterday and the green LED was on.
And finally, when turned off, and plugged into the USB, after few seconds, adb devices will show the device, and after the serial number it says recovery. Does that mean that the phone booted into the recovery? The screen is still black though.
So, the most important thing for me is to find out is it possible to return the phone back to stock, in order to send it for a repair. And even better, a solution for the problem
I believe its a hardware problem, although adb says its in recovery. Any more ibfo you could give us? ROM, how you rooted it etc?

thanks don't hurt ya know?
Take off battery,connect phone to charger via USB for 3 minutes ,than insert battery put battery cover now u should see orange light ,now press power button and voila
It's an issue with the volume rocker I think
Had a very similar issue when I had IceColdSandwich on my DHD, only started when I flashed that Rom, reflashed a different Rom, everything is fine again!

I'm not sure that the issue is with ROM, I'm starting to think that it's probably a hardware issue. And that's why I need to found out how to return everything to stock, and send it for warranty.
Try again it will work .may be leave it longer after you put the battery in like an hour .it should work after an hour press the power button

Today, i visit the service, flat cable and battery where reinserted and everything is normal now. You could try this method if you have a warranty. Best regards.

Thankyou so much after leaving phone in cupboard for like 5 years and forgot why it was on there I decided to plug it up. Then I remembered it wouldn't turn on and I was getting the orange blinking. After following your instructions it's all on again. Have upgraded since then so I guess this is a back up phone now lol
Hi,
I'm sorry if this has already been answered I just can't find it.
My Wildfire's screen froze a couple of times, then the last time I removed the battery and reinserted it.
When I tried to power back up I got the vibrate but nothing on the screen, so I repeated a couple of times with no luck.
I then tried the Hboot method (Hold vol - and power) and I got the Hboot on, but when I tried to navigate using the volume buttons nothing happened, so removed battery and tried to repeat, I couldn't get back to Hboot. I have only been able to get the Hboot screen that one time.
When I power up, I get 1 vibrate and nothing on screen.
When I hold volume + and power button, I get three vibrates and the green light comes on.
When I hold volume - and power I don't get any vibrates, unless I remove the volume - then the power button but still only one vibrate.
I've tried installing the CyanogenMod but no luck.
Is there anything that can be done to save my Wildfire?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Seems like you're in Qualcomm Diagnostic mode. Though I don't remember the solution, some Googling might help

Any help please
I've tried the method stated on this forum but with no luck.
Does anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks!
--- EDIT ---
So you wrote your question again in the "Wildfire S" (Marvel) Forums - in this case the much more important question would be: what phone are you talking about? A Wildfire (Buzz) or a "Wildfire S" (Marvel). Despite the name those have almost nothing in common - they are totally different devices
--- EDIT ---
I'll answer in this thread although you opened another one in Q&A.
You haven't been too specific with your problem but sometimes it helps to have all the details
So here we go:
a) did the phone work correct (besides the freezes) before you took out the battery?
b) is your WF rooted & s-off?
c) which ROM?
d)
When I hold volume + and power button, I get three vibrates and the green light comes on
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
does this happen when connected to PC or charger or not
e)
When I hold volume - and power I don't get any vibrates, unless I remove the volume
Click to expand...

did you hold both at least 5-10 secs or so?
f)
I've tried installing the CyanogenMod but no luck

you mean after your problem occured? How did you do that?
Believe me: the more details you provide the more likely someone might have a solution or at least an idea what's going on
OK, sorry for the lack of info!
My phone is a Wildfire, not a WildfireS.
A: Yes, was working.
B: No, never needed to.
C: Not sure, never kept a record of it. It's one of the first models though if that helps.
D: This happens without USB cord attached. When the USB cord is attached I pull the battery and the green light stays on.
E: Yes, I've tried this for over 10secs before.
F: Yes, after blank screen. I installed on SD card and followed the directions. Bare in mind, I cant set Debug or the charge only setting.
Thanks!

ok, you should mention it in the Marvel forums, too, to avoid misunderstandings At least you're in the right forum here.

That's what I thought. In this case you won't be able to flash any other ROM - you could just do the usual upgrades by HTC
This doesn't sound to me to be a minor problem (but probably someone else might correct me here) - nevertheless - just to make sure: have you tried to do a hard factory reset following the HTC user guide?
- With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then briefly press the POWER button (instead of holding it)
if this boots your phone up:
- Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the VOLUME DOWN button.
- Press VOLUME DOWN to select CLEAR STORAGE, and then press POWER.
- Press VOLUME UP to start the factory reset
(errm and yes: this will delete all your user data, of course...)

But I assume you have done that anyway - did you try to connect your phone to the PC (HTC drivers installed, of course)?
How about charging - does the phone seem to behave normal - i.e. if you keep it from charging for a few hrs does it show the red LED for charging mode and the green one for being fully charged?
That's pretty much all I could suggest from scratch. - Hopefully someone else with a good idea will step in here :fingers-crossed:
OK, still have the Wildfire with the annoying blank screen.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a fix?
Thanks!

besides the suggestion of the Qualcomm diagnostic mode (no I don't know anything about that): did you try to power up without the sdcard, yet?
Furthermore I slightly remember that you could do a factory reset using a key combination - but I'm not sure about it.
Same goes for a RUU. Are you able to connect to the phone with the PC?
Really just random guessing - hard if no error messages appear...
Yes, tried with the SD card.
Because I can't see the screen I tried it loads of times, all with different combinations.
I can't get any vibrate from volume down + long hold power.
I will only get a vibrate from volume down + short hold power.
What would be ideal if there's a way to use ODIN PC to flash a new ROM, well that's what I think it is, faulty ROM?
Thanks!

really hard to say as there's not a little information what's going on. What if just the screen is dead? have you tried to wait after boot and insert your pin after a while (I mean try to guess where the numbers might be) and call your number?
Why anyone want's to use ODIN on non-samsung?!
ODIN is purely just for SAMSUNG products
If you have warranty.. put it to service centre.. they will fix it
Need hard reset power off your phone press volume DOWN and power. YOU WILL FIX IT EASYLI.

Hey there!
I'm bumping this because I have the same problem and creating a new thread seemed more bad to me.
Anyway, I'll start from the beginning.
I found out my battery was swollen 5 days ago. It's probably because of my charging habits. My battery life have shortened everyday this 5 days. Yesterday morning I wiped my battery stats to get a better battery life. When I was back home my phone's battery has depleted while I was listening to music.
I came to home, plugged my phone to charge and waited 15 mins to get it charged a bit to open. When I tried to open it, it vibrated but the "green htc text on white background" screen didn't come up. The screen wasn't working. I tried what is said before in this tried. Once I got managed to see the bootloader but the volume keys weren't working (as above) After some moments of rage, my brother offered to test the touch, I opened the phone, (as I dont have a PIN) we waited for some minutes and then he called me. I mimiced the answering gestured and boom, I could talk with my brother.
I bought a new screen as I think screen is broken. But it could be because mainboards screen part is damaged (probably because of my faulty battery, voltage wavings etc.) or something completely different.
Please guys help me. I can't buy a new phone atm so I have to fix this

Ouch sounds like a rough one :/ OK so you have no visual, but do have touch and audio? Are you s-off or s-on? You could try to "blind feed" the rom.zip of a ruu to the bootloader to try restore it. But it may well be that your battery has killed the screen. Have you ordered a new battery?

I'm S-OFF. I had it written in my old sig.
I too think that it was the battery that killed the screen. Ordered both a screen and a battery but they won't be coming before 20 days at least. Damn you China, why you have to be that far.
Anyhoo, I can't get to the bootloader anymore. Or I think I can't get it. I once managed to get it but volume buttons weren't working. After that in every try I couln't see the bootloader screen. But you're right. When I can't see the bootloader, it doesn't mean I don't get the screen. I could do it with a fellow's help. But only after a few days. I'm getting a surgery in 10 hours. Can't really care about my phone right now

First I have to ask, do you get a vibration feedback when you are getting into bootloader by VolDown + Power buttons?

Hello, guys!
I have a problem with my HTC Wildfire (Buzz).
The problem: My screen has started to flicker and jump. And i didn't drop it(i think i didn't) and i bought it 2 years ago. I can charge it, i can reboot it, but as soon as i lock and unlock, firstly it is just black screen and the bottom buttons turn on, but i have to press my power button for many times for the screen even to turn on. And when it turns on, as soon as i unlock the screen it starts to jump and flicker. As well - When i am charging my green light isn't turning on.
Specifications: Standart ROM, HTC Wildfire Buzz, Android Version - 2.2.1
What i tried: Tried factory data reset(nothing changed), took out my SD card(nothing changed), Powered it off for a couple of hours with a battery taken out(nothing changed).
Sorry if there is a solution already on this forum, but i didn't find it.
Please help and thank you.
You can try running a ruu on your phone to reflash stock firmware to see if that helps

Hi all,
I have a HTC Desire Z and having an issue with it, it is a stock standard DZ. Done some searching and couldn't find anything like this with a solution. So tonight my phone vibrated in my pocket like i received a message. When i got it out the screen was black. None of the buttons were responding so i removed the battery and restarted the phone.
The phone now gets stuck in the bootloader every time I turn it on. When in the bootloader none of the buttons respond, meaning i cant select anything. Have tried cleaning the volume buttons, they were a bit dirty but it didn't fix it.
So when it boots it goes into a white screen, Fastboot and bootloader are highlighted
My question is, has anyone experienced this problem? Does anyone know how to get the phone to boot properly.
Thanks for any help.
