Yes take it back, they will be nice enough to replace it. Try and show them the problem also so they understand...the day I purchased my inspire I had a few stuck pixels and I returned it the next week and they didn't even care...

Go to setting display and turn off all animations. Try that and see if it works

if you cant return it try rooting and installing a custom rom..might fix the problem. if you cant return it you've got nothing to lose

Nothing would work so I ended up just giving the phone a full reset and it works now.

Lockscreen Issue [Nothing to do with the ring]

Its happened to me twice now, the lockscreen froze half way up the screen with the bottom half black(Weather lockscreen) and it still works when you swipe up from the bottom half, but the only way to fix it is to reboot. Has anyone else had this problem, and if so sorry if its already been posted.

An HTC Champion recognized this as a bug and told me it will be fixed in our first update (for the T-Mobile Sensation 4G)
so what lockscreen is everyone using when this happens? Weather, picture album, etc...Also, are you using the sense launcher or something else? I've had my phone for almost 2 weeks now and I am praying that this doesn't happen to me
It happened to me once also. Weather lockscreen.
I dont have that problem only sometimes when i unlocked my screen it wasn't good response but fixed it after some screen switches
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
This has happened to me more than once and I almost never have my phone in Landscape mode... Maybe it has to do with the G sensor detecting it being horizontal though?
It's happened to me only once. I use the weather lock screen. I had to reboot to fix it.

This has happened to my phone about 3-4 times. The only way I can fix it is to take my sensation out of it's body glove protector (kind of a pain) and then pull the battery and turn the phone back on. I can't shut down or reboot the screen no matter how long I hold the power button. I love my phone but this is getting on my nerves. It does it at the worst times.

[Q] Infuse Concerns

So Im just about to pickup the Infuse because my buddy is gonna sell it to me pretty cheap. He said that every now and then his phone when pressing on an app will not open the app but instead vibrate intermittently and pretty much need to be reset by taking out the battery. Is this a common issue with this phone and if so is there any fix for it (software updates, rooting, etc..) any help would be greatly appreciated.
P.S.- Im pretty sure I had this problem when I had the Captivate (3 months) until I got the Inspire...
i dont think you will know till you get it, it may just need to be reflashed and what not.
It's totally stock and he said that he's restored it once b4. I'm more looking for if others have had this issue.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda premium
If you use GPS, try it first to make sure it is locking and tracking accurately.
Yeah Ik the Captivate had some HORRID gps... My buddy told me that the Infuse was pretty decent and seemed to track ok...is this still an issue?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda premium
definitely not a common issue with this phone... hence, the reason he is selling it.
the intermittent vibrations indicate that the app he is trying to open is force closing - or that something else in the background is force closing.
however, this should not freeze up the phone to the point of needing to pull the battery.
Any thoughts on a cause or solution or what might cause it if it happens w/no apps added?
Idk if it'll happen with no added apps just talking in hypotheticals now
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda premium
i have no clue. it could be any number of things.
you said your friend "restored" the phone once, so maybe he messed up flashing his previous rom, or maybe he messed something up going back to stock.
i wouldn't buy the phone - as i said, this isn't a common issue, and i'm not sure how you'd figure out exactly what the issue is in your situation.
just find a brand new infuse for cheap (i guess they are $50 at target sometimes), especially with the sgsII coming out soon - i'd imagine you can find a pretty good deal if you look hard enough.
He has never rooted done anything to it... Totally stock

Try asking him for a 3 day trial run, then install any custom ROM n see if the issue comes up. If yes, restore stock n give it back to him. If it doesn't u have a good deal.

You said he 'restored' it. He's definitely done SOMETHING to it.
Personally, I wouldn't buy it.
Restored as in factory reset that's in the settings....that way his apps/pics/contacts are not on it...
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda premium
that is some type of failure in the app...
when I have an app that does that I clear cache and data for that app, if that does not resolve the issue I uninstall and reinstall the app...
if that still doesn't fix it, I give up on that app
When its doing this... Is there an instant way to find out which app it is... He says there's no fc pop up on the screen

Sometimes it just may need a restart to fix the auto-rotation. Reboot should fix it.
Sounds like you have a broken accelometer or its on its way going out. I had same problem g sensor won't calibrated at all now says abort everytime restarts do nothing.
I can't do anything that requires accelometer/g sensor and sounds like you have same problem.
Sorry man .
Reset your phone to default settings there's a great download in inspire development that will revert everything for you the call HTC and they will fix it for free as long as you restore everything to stock froyo or gb ruu. And you havnt tampered with anything etc etc .
HTC said 6-9 days for my phone to get fixed and back to me

[Q] htc sensation wont turn on

Can someone please help me? My htc sensation was working fine and all of a sudden it started freezing, so I took out the battery and put it back in. Now it won't turn on or boot into Hboot. The battery is fully charged and I even tried a different battery but still nothing. I've plugged in the phone without the battery as well and still nothing, the screen does not come on at all. Does anyone have a solution?

this happened to me too for some reason too, when i try to turn it on it just vibrates every 40 seconds or so with a blank screen . i am running ordroids latest rom. oh and my theory is i short circuited the battery or something because when my phone was charging i yanked the power cord of the wall with the phone still plugged in , any ideas and/or soulutions to my problem ?
The same happened to me a few months ago and had to get it replaced with T-Mobile.

Hey man saw your issue...
This happened to me about 3 months ago. I was watching a youtube video when suddenly my phone froze. I did the exact same thing. Pulled the battery, waited a few mins, popped it back in and nothing. If you have insurance on the device you can get it replaced. They completely replaced mine and it was s-off rooted! So you should have no problems at all!:good:
Mine has done that a couple of times. All I do is wait about 5 minutes then pull the battery, put it back in and then try to restart the phone. Sometimes it take 5 or 6 tries before it will reboot and even then sometimes all I get it the splash screen. Another hint is to have it plugged into the charger after you have put the battery back in. If the charging led is on then that means there is a very good chance the phone will boot

Big Time problems! It started a week ago where I lost data and was advised by Rogers techs to "Try" a bunch of things and was told to do a "Factory Data Reset". I hated to but they said it was the thing they knew to try. Did it and got data backi for a few days and now I have NO Service and can't connect at all. They are sending new phone and will be here hopefully tomorrow.
It's 4 g lte and never switches and when I look at data it just said connecting and when put in and out of airplane mode it said connected and then works

I guess I'll wait till the ota update and if that doesn't fix it I'll exchange for another one
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I think i had this problem, lost all data connectivity until i either restarted or toggled airplane mode.
My sim didn't look like it was correctly installed because the tray was protruding a little bit. I removed the sim tray and messed with the card a bit, it looks like it fits better and i haven't had a problem in 2 days.
Battery has also been better since then, hope this helps if we're having the same problem.
I'll try it thanks

It's not just you. My phone did this a few times while I was at school. At first I thought I just lost connection cuz I get crappy reception anyway but after a whilr I noticed it wasn't reconnecting so I restarted and it turned on again. It happened 3 times while at school. 0 at home.
I've only had it for about 24 hours so I'll let you know if it happens again
