2. Sometimes the battery justs falls off little bit from the phone and it turns off...
3. When i wanna correct something(when typing) .sometimes i wanna use the buttons that are on the bottom but recently they randomly stop working too
It also has scratches just little tho but its been a year since i got this phone... the same phone.i want a replacement! another new vogue =D
can anybody passs me the stock rom from sprint.
what should i do? any other problems i could tell them to get a new one.. lol
if i just show them the phone it looks ok....
Magicalan,
You've had it for over a year and you want to send it back and expect them to replace it?
Give me a break lol, any service centre will say its wear and tear.
Im closing this thread as it serves no real purpose. As for the original Rom, check the Vogue wiki.

M8s, can any1 help me?!?!?! While i am doing something on my phone, on display shows some strange lines, and display start to become white... It sometimes gone crazy with this, and sometimes, it works ok!!! I have WM5... anyone know what could be a problem...? And how to fix it?
Thx in advice!
dont worry ur phone is not dead maybe the wires that connects the lcd with the motherboard are not so good
So, what you think what i can do...? It usually gone wild while i am doing something big... For example: deletting big amounts of files in same time... I am not touching it while it deleting them and lines again apears... And phone is relatively new... 3 months old!
i've the same problem. i asked a lot of questions about this problem in other forums but no one helped me. Because they didn't know anything.
i changed a lot of WM6 roms but the problem is still going on. i opened my wizard and i connect the parts in my hand. It worked and the scrren didn't freeze. Then i put the parts in the case, the freezing came back. i remove the main part in the case and connect it outside the case, it didn't freeze. So i think the problem is in the wire thet connects the lcd to motherboard. I think i'm gonna change my lcd.
If anyone knows something or "Orbiter87" if you find a solution for this problem, please write here. Thanks...
(sorry about my english, it's not good enough)
Hey guys,
Your problems have nothing to do with ROMs, these sound like hardware issues with the wizard itself. Orbiter, if your wiz is less than 3 months, I'd hound the warranty. If you don't have warranty, you may have to do some home repair. I'd love to help you, but can't...I'd probably throw out my wiz before I attempt to do anything with its hardware.
And one more thing... When i am playing some games or turn on some programs, it works normal... So i think that it is something with ROM!
it's nothing about ROM
i have the same problem on my 9100 try to move the display a litle bit when the stripes appear
i said the problem was in the lcd wire but now i don't think.because i opened the case and took the mothermoard out of the case i turned it on. it work and touched-pressed everywhere on the board, lcd wire but it didn't freeze. Again i put motherboard in to the case, it' freezing started. i think i'm gonna buy a new one and throw away this one. otherwise i'm gonna be crazy...
had the same problem a long time ago.
in my case it was the batterytodayplugin/program called "batti" in combination with overclocking.
so what programs are installed on your wizard
steph
I erased lots of stuff! Now i have only:
Anton Tomov Pocket Mechanic
Loving Wife Unlock Ext Rom Wizard
C. Ghisler & Co. Total Commander
The screen going white usually happens when the Flexi Strip connecting the Lcd to the motherboard is either not properly fitted or is damaged,white screen is very rarely the fault of the LCD.If the wizard is in warrenty then send it back otherwise if you are willing to do it yourself then download the k-jam service manual and give it a go.
I think you mean "the wire that comes from lcd to the motherboard" as flexi strip. If so, i did a lot of thing with that wire but it didn't change. Like i said, when i took off the motherboard from the case, i pressed every point on the board but it didn't go to the white. But when i put it into the case and press or do something to the board it goes white. There is a problem with case but how can the case do something to the lcd' image...
(While doing this things, the wizard was open)
ok im not that new to flashing i have flashed about 6 or 7 roms on my phone in the past. today i was running dutty's V4 and i have been running it since it came out to the public and today i went to read a txt message and the phone blacks out and i get a red light at the top but its only there when the phone is on a charger. i can not restart the phone at all.
dont know if it helps but i was running Dutty V4 with cube enabled also running s2u2 and thats about it as far as stuff that was running other than the rom itself. i really hope there is a fix to this. i have already tried to reflash but device is not found.
well crap... i hear the red light be nicknamed the red light of death... i hope to god there is a way around this... if not would att know i reflashed something else if i went in and started to complain?
i had a similar thing with my orange uk keiser and i just got orange to ghange it for a new one. that was over a month ago now and i have had no questions so far. if you cant get it to work then they cant either

Have you tried to put it in Boot Loader mode? Can you do a hard re-set?
As posted above, this is referred to as "red light of death" - RLoD.
Rzanology had a potential fix for this involving removing battery cover and pumping battery up and down on battery contacts (battery cpr), that appeared to work for some folks - tried to find the thread but was unsuccessful. You might try pm'ing him.
If you are unable to resuscitate your device, most have simply returned it. Good luck!
apologies for the hijack (and sorry to hear that you're having problems) but I've always wondered what they check when you send it back for a fault repair.
Just wondering how many people have sent back their phones with hardSPL and custom roms still installed
well if it totally dead don't worry about sending it back with custom things flashed to it. most of the time they just hook it up to a charger and see if it will turn on and if not throw it in a bin of other messed up kaisers. I'm sure HTC knows about the red light of death and what makes it happen.
no biggie on the hijack
well im stil standing in att but obviously since im sending this I got a new phone. they tried to give me a loaner until they sent mine for repairs but when they offered me a 89.00 phone I laughed and told them my kaiser is worth more as a paer weight and that I run my bar from my phone and that their loaner wouldn't cut it. they then offered my an iPhone to replace it, telling me its a beter phone anyhow so I went to the magazine stand across the isle and showed the a mobile power magizine that has the tilt listed higher and also told them that I needed my 3g internet and also said look if ur willing to give me an IPhone why not a tilt. after about 10 mins talking to me I got my new tilt.
now omg I can not wait to get the htc today screen back and opera. ie sucks

So if I properly brick it they'll probably just replace it? Is there a guide on bricking anywhere

bah... ruddy kiddes toy
apperently I dotn have trouble bricking one so just pretend ur me...but tbh if u want to brick it completely I would just replace the fuse in ur car charger with a much higher one and crank juice into the phone... but don't put too much into it burn chipsets smell horrible.
the microwave for 1 minute does wonders for bricking phones not that I would know that for fact though

Not the old microwave trick - wasn't it you who posted this in Hermes thread a few months ago?
Phone insurance which covers "accidental" damage is a good move, although you will probably need to pay a small excess. I managed to push the usb port inside my universal a couple of years ago and got a straight swap. If you dropped it (from a height onto a concrete floor) I'm sure no one would even try to turn it on. Alternatively have a run in with a stranger in a hoody on a dark night, get a crime number and no one will even have your phone to check for HardSPL or custom roms

As mentioned in the other thread (no I'm not going to search for it. ) the only thing AT&T cares about is if the water sensor has been tripped (little white square under the battery permanently changes color when wet), or if there is obvious physical damage/abuse. Apparently they can't get past the RLoD either. As an aside I'd really love to know what the RLoD return rate is...
So, given those constraints the other thread's conclusion was that 12v across the battery/charge contacts should permanently brick it quite nicely. Just watch out for arcing.
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT THE FLASH IMAGE AT THE TIME HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE RLoD. It appears to be a hardware problem, and no-one here has reported an issue with a returned RLoD Tilt or Kaiser with a 3rd party flash image loaded.
In my case I also had to wait a few days to get the replacement units unlock code because apparently the IMEI was so new it wasn't in the database according to the service drone. Which suggests that AT&T is using a table of unlock codes from HTC rather than a piece of software to generate the codes. Now that we have an unlocker and "Super CID" program available, it's moot anyway. (Good karma wishes jockyw2001!)

My Tilt hasn't gotten messed up yet. But I have return 2 8125's and 1 8525 back in the days and I sent them back with custom roms. AT&T never complain or anything like that.
My bad, it wasn't Rzanology, it was sWuRv (that avatar freaks me out).
Here's the thread in case it happens again...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358136
Recently my S710 developed an annoying habit of having its screen randomly go black. It's not that the screen actually goes off, since there is still a back light and you can still see very faint image of what should be on screen if you look at it from a certain angle, but not enough for it to be useable.
It started happening after I flashed my rom to Gonzo's Mona Lisa, but I think that's more coincidence than anything else, since it happens with all the ROMs I've tried.
It's not a constant thing, either. It doesn't happen when I do anything in particular. I have noticed, weirdly, that when it does happen while I'm trying to write a text message, turning on caps makes the screen visible. As soon as I press anything else, it goes blank again. I usually just have to wait for it to return by itself. This is, as you can imagine, pretty annoying when you're trying to write messages.
I hate to think this, but reckon it's a hardware problem? I am really loathe to send it in for repair, I'm sure it will cost a fortune.
Hi i got the same trouble,
it became too anoying to use the phone
but the only solution is to bring it back to repair center because they have to change the mainboard and then you get an new IMEI number too.
hope you still have a warranty of the cellphone on it because it's almost the price of the phone if you wanna to be fixed the problem.

Have you installed Mesh?
I have noticed that this only happens when the Mesh client is running.

No dont know even "Mesh" so i m sure it was because the hardware, so decided after 2 month of having the problem to bring it back to the store and there they send it to a repair services after 4 weeks i got it back with a new front cover and new lcd module but the problem was still there and i had to wait another 4 weeks to get it back from the repair service and then like i said in my first post i got a new mainboard with a fresh new IMEI Now i m back with a new phone but i waited 8 weeks
so i dont think it's because a software . Because i tested 2 month before sending it to fix the problem (with warranty )
LiquidAx
Hm, How long is warranty? A year? In that case, I do have a warranty. Sounds like this is gonna be a rollercoaster ride, especially considering how reluctant people in my country are to do anything without trying to make it seem like it was your fault.
If you want to take advantage of the warranty, you will have to flash back the original ROM of course.

Yes you have to restaure the original flash, and the warranty is 2 year because mine it had 1 year and 3 month old when i to it to the repair service
for the problem they can not fix it in another way i m sure of that so i guess it's not your fault at all or you have to ask a new one
hope you will go ASAP to the repair service
LiquidAx
Oh, I have flashed back to an original HTC rom just out of curiousity that it might fix it . Thanks, I'm sure I'm on a pretty big mission here.
Ok, so I've had my Fuze like 4 or 5 months now and have had no problems until a day or two ago. I try to do anything, my screen does not work properly. I touch somewhere and it doesn't register it 95% of the time. I looked at the screen and there seems to be a little liquid under there but I don't know how it got there, I put a screen protector on it the whole time I've had it and it just appeared out of nowhere and it's never had any kind of liquid spilt on it or anything. I try to click on the text box for SMS in touchflo 2.1 and it won't go in there and it starts moving the text messages up and down and opening task manager randomly and whenever I open the start menu it goes right into moving the items around. I have tried reflashing but have not yet tried to go back to stock. I'm going to try that and if it doesn't work I'm takin it in to AT&T to see if they can either give me a new one or fix it.
I have had the same problem with my screen on Touch Pro.
I had to get the phone repaired under warranty. I think HTC replaced the screen.
Search the forums, quite a few people have had this problem.
Has it been exposed to heat?
Seeing as your a fellow texan, have you left it in your car or under direct sunlight for a prolonged period?
I'd look up an At&t Device Support center and take it to them, they should change the device on the spot if there's no physical damage and its still under warranty.
Make sure you revert to the Stock/Shipped ROM and SPL (i wouldn't worry too much about the SPL though if you can't get it, i've turned in 2 devices with a hardSPL and nothing ever happened, but its better to be safe then sorry right?)
best of luck
Dont get me wrong, i love the HTC Sensation, especially seeing as i came from a nokia N97 mini... (never again). But the HTC's screen some times just will not work for me!
The issue comes now and again when i try to scroll or press anything, only the very bottom of the screen and very top of the screen will work. The whole Middle of the screen if you like, becomes totally unresponsive. If I turn the phone off and on it works again, or if i wait 10 minutes or so it will also work.
Just wondering if any 1 else has ran into this problem or if i should just send it back in the hope of getting a better one?
Thanks
definitely not normal...I'd take it back mate :S
take it back
Back it bro as quick as possible, and ask for a new one.
Haha will do, just sent them a message, so hopefully get a new one ASAP
Thanks guys
