Hello, guys.
Several days ago I bought HD2 with cracked screen, also stuck in Android bootloop (some Cyanogenmod ROM)
I don't even planned to make it work normally, planned to use it as spare parts for another HD2, but after reflash to a stock 3.14 - it booted up normally.
But Wi-Fi is dead, it simply doesn't turn on.
Link to a video:

Anyway, I will replace display module as soon as it arrive to me.
So, does anyone have suggestions? Something tells me, it's a HW problem, not SW. Now device is dissasembled.
And there is no visible damage near Broadcom chip or somewhere else. No corrosion, no cracks, no overheating marks. Nothing.
Bluetooth is working normally, despite it's the same IC.

Any help is appreciated... :confused:

could be something regarding to your wifi antenna in your housing, the connector to it, or coaxial cable to the mainboard
