Ok so I had installed a home replacement called qq launcher version 1.21 and uninstalled around 10 min after. While it was uninstalling, the loading bar kept going and the phone froze up. So i took out my battery and proceeded to turn it on again. Now when my phone turns on, after booting up it goes to my pattern lock screen with a completely black wallpaper and my phone freezes. When I press the power button, the screen goes black and stays like that. The only time it switches is when i plug in my charger and when i do that, it goes back to to the same lock screen and stays frozen unless i press the power button (which turns my screen black again.) Im running gingerbread 2.3.4 and im not rooted. My phones also disconnected so i only use it on wifi. I would really REALLY appreciate it if someone can help me get my G2 back to normal, i depend on it greatly whenever im on a wifi network.
With the phone off, hold volume down, press and release power. This should pull up the bootloader screen. You should have the option to do a factory reset from here. Try it.

Hey guys, i have some problems that i hope somebody can help with. My phone isnt rooted, basically out of the box stock, but ive had it since the day it came out. So shes got some time on her.
It was working perfectly till about a day ago. Then all of a sudden the screen would not stay off for more than a second. I would push the lock button and it would turn off, but the lighted buttons (home, back, etc) would stay lit. Then the screen would turn back on a second later. But i found that if i push the lock button and immediately push it again, the lighted buttons will also turn off and the screen will stay off. If i hold the lock button it will just flash the menu with the options to power off options (airplane mode, silent mode, etc..), but immediately disappear. But if i hold the lock button till just before that menu would pop up, it wont always disappear.
Also sometimes when i try to open any app it will close automatically, popping up with a recent apps menu that ive never actually seen before. I can push back and the menu will go away and i can try to open the app again. Usually successful the second time.
And last my battery life has gone down the drain. It went from fully charged to empty in about 7 hours. It used to last much longer. The screen might be on in my pocked, so that could be the problem, but i try to check it often to see if its on.
Just hoping that someone will know if this is a hardware or software problem. The phone was perfect in the morning, and a few hours later the problems started.
I have android version 2.2.1, froyo i believe.
Any help will be really appreciated. Sorry for the long post, just trying to be specific.
I flashed my LG Optimus P500 with the Oxygen 2.3.2 rom yesterday, and it had been working great. I spent a few hours customizing settings and getting acquainted with the layouts and everything. I'm pretty sure I rebooted it at some point.
But then, about 6 hours after flashing it, I held down the power button and pressed reboot (after opening a bunch of apps that I didn't want to bother closing. Once it shut off, it didn't come back on automatically, so I tried to manually power it on. It didn't come on. So I plugged it in to charge. The battery level was at 7 or 8% when I did this. Then when I tried to power it on, it just showed the battery charging that typically comes up when it's off. I held the power button for a few seconds and it booted up as usual, but when I spent a few seconds on the home screen, it went back to the Oxygen logo for about 10 seconds and came back to the screen lock. Since then, it keeps power cycling on its own. I can't keep it on for more than a few seconds. Sometimes, it gets stuck at the screen lock and I can't even press anything on the touch screen or the power button, and I have to do a hard reset.
I tried booting with no SD card and the same thing still happens. Should I reflash it? Any help would be appreciated.
I went to plug in my one x to charge. The second that I plugged it in, the screen went black. The home and back keys were still lit up. I'm not sure if it auto restarted or I powered it down. After that it seemed like it was just going to restart, but it only got to the htc logo screen. The normal little orange bar showed loading. I think it only does that once normally, now it goes twice. When it finishes that animation, it just sits at the white htc screen.
I haven't modified anything recently. It has been running over a year with no changes. If I hold power down at the screen, the home keys flash every few seconds. After seven flashes, the phone powers down and immediately restarts. There is no way to power it down until it dies. I took it apart and removed the battery for a few minutes, that didn't help at all.
If I home power and volume down, the red charge light comes on a few seconds. It then seems to boot to a black screen. I can't see anything, but the home keys are lit up. If I hold power down a while, it goes back to booting to the white logo screen. I tried hooking it to my computer, but it isn't getting to a point where it is being recognized as being plugged in.
I assume the thing is beyond help, but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

"home power and volume down"?
If you mean HOLD power and volume down, trying to get to bootloader, and you cannot, you're not going to be able to do anything else with and to your phone I am afraid.
If you ARE holding down the Home key in the process, I am not sure if it makes a difference but don't.
thanks

Sorry, you are correct, it should have said hold. I tried to edit it, but it wouldn't let me edit so soon after posting as a new member. My phone has been through a lot. In the process of opening the case many times, the volume bar got damaged. I have to use something metal against volume down to manually trigger it. I'm fairly certain that it has tried to boot into the loader though. I guess the charger had a short and fried some memory..

If you just purchased the phone why not simply return
it to tmobile for an exchange, that's what I would do.
Good luck!
I had my phone sitting on my desk, pressed the power button to check the time, and set it on the desk again. Suddenly, I felt it start vibrating over and over and over, and when I pick it up to check what's going on, I see it's stuck on a restart loop. The phone turns on, the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" logo appears for about two seconds, and it turns off, again and again. The same thing happens with the phone connected to a charger, and if I press power+vol down when it's turning on, I get to the bootloader screen, and it shuts down again (can't scroll through the options using the vol keys). The phone is running on the stock ROM, and I did the OTA update like three months ago. Any thoughts on what's going on would be greatly appreciated.

your power button is stuck in press position try press it to release it
The button seems to be fine. It doesn't feel stuck, and has a normal clicky sound. I tapped on it, and wiggled it a bit, and the same thing keeps happening.

yes the button it self is ok but the back side is stuck try hit the phone near to power button with the hand to release it
Either the button is stuck or your power flex cable has malfunctioned. Power Flex Cable can be replaced and should solve this problem - see the below thread I made some time ago regarding this:

My issue was water damage but would cover any damage to the power flex cable.
