Iv tryed a hard reset but nothink still getting the same! it still wont change! the laptop wont see it eaither as im guessing cos its not turnt on
please please plase hoping someone can help

Take out the battery and plug it in. The orange LED should be on for a couple of seconds, if that doesn't happen, then the device might be broken (use you warranty...)!

Hello, i belive this is my first post but i been reading up on these forums and find them very helpfull. i did a search on here and google with my issue and found no help. last night i was looking through my contacts and my phone just froze. i waited a min or two and still froze. so i pulled the battery out to shut it off. now the phone is dead...it wont turn on, it wont charge when i plug it in the charger, i also tried pressing the volume and power buttons to do a factory reset with no luck.
if anyone can help, i would really appreciate it.
thank you
BTW: i belive tmobile return time is 14 days...so i cant return it to them since its like day 34...just my luck lol

You should be able to swap it out no matter what, your warranty is still in place. Just bring it to the store and they should either give you another one the same day or order you one man.

Did you press the volume down and the power button(not both volume buttons) until you see the screen with the box and android? Also try pulling battery and leaving it out for at least a minute or two. Have you rooted the phone?Where you on a custom rom? With more information furnished I am sure the talented people on this forum can be of more help.

I would try putting the vol down and power together again (you can press the vol button and then press the power and hold both for at least a minute) to see if you get any response. If not, contact TMo on the phone and you will have a replacement unit in a few days.
Question - when you plug it into the charger, do you see a battery charging screen come up? One unknown is the battery.
You might go to a TMo store and see if they will let you plug the battery from their demo in yours and see if it will respond to the above. If it does, it is your battery (you should also be able to get that under warranty).
If not - it is your phone - then do the above.

If your PC is not recognizing the device when you plug in then you are pretty much screwed... sorry man...

he sd he just tryed doing a factory reset which is vol up n power thats y i asked if he put recovery on there using nvflash cuz if not vol down n power wont work idk man could be a battery dwf weird n do what jhaste sd if it recognizes it ur good if not idk

thanks for your help everyone.
to answer some questions
1. i did not do nv flash
2.when i plug it in the charger i dont get a charging indicator or screen.
my girlfriend has the same phone as me...so when i get home today i will swap the battery to see if its the issue. i did call tmobile and they said if the battery swap dosnt do anything that i can get a replacement under warranty. good new i guess
im just worried i will get one with bugs lol ( like random shut downs, screen bleed, and gps issues) cause mine has been flawless...untill this lol

well seeing as you did not use nvflash, when you get home try flashing clockworkmond recovery using the nvflash method... Ive got a feeling that when you pull the battery, hold your volume buttons down and plug in the usb cord that it will perk up

is this guide what i need?
androidtotal.com/install-clockworkmod-recovery-lg-g2x-t-mobile-nvflasher
looks like a complete guide. also will make my phone stock again or will it have something else? i guess i should google what clockworkmod is

yea dude im with jhaste on this one i mean that is weird shouldnt have dun that on stock rom thats y 50% of me says its battery but dude if u do hook it up to the computer n u get life ur good then u need to do the nvflash method install recovery n flash a rom theres even an image for the stock rom if u like that one that much. its all in development part of forum. so worst case scenario bro u could do that i think ull be aight n if u do end up takin it back under warranty n u get a ****ty one man that sounds so bad u should always get a good one, but neways if u get one that has bad screen bleed or something quirky call tmobile again u have a yr warranty just dont drop it scratch it or dunk it in water lol n ur warranty should be good n dude dont worry bout screen bleed i have it a lil n i can give two ****s it dont bother me its common with newer lcds i mean if u have it bad n can notice it when doing daily things with ur phone then by all means take it back if that aint the case then dont worry bout it cuz 99% of the time ull get the same result if u take it back

its under development and u wana use the ext4 version its the newest tgagunman has a nice easy guide i myself dont know how to put links up so if someone could

[Q] HELP!!!Sensation 4G doesn't power on

Hi y'all,
My 3 days old sensation doesn't power up. It's S-Off, rooted and I've been testing different roms on it until I got to the revolution HD. I followed all the steps, Super swiped, flashed it, but the first time I rebooted it didn't power back on; I tried "power+Volume down" and no results.... I've tried removing the battery for an hour or so and trying and it still didn't work.. Kind of pissed cuz I paid the full non subsidized price for it ($530).
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance

Wow I'm sorry to hear that did you try plugging it into the charger and wait about 20 minutes and see if you can boot it into clockwork mod
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App

Hey so sorry to hear what happened... I can imagine the pain going through..
Can you give some more details?
1. Does it vibrate when you press potter button?
2. Does it show any charging light when you plug in power?
3. try charging for one hour or replace battery with another sensation set as sometimes battery can be culprit
I always try to prevent running that super wipe script since that pays with your partitions...

had your battery ran down all the way?
that happened to me and i had to do a battery swap and forwhatever reason it worked after that. i can still use my other battery no problems.
just something from my experience. might want to think about getting a secondary battery,just in case. 10 dollars.
(does the charging light blink orange 4 times, then nothing?

Hi All,
1- No, it doesn't do anything. no vibration, no light. It like the battery's been completely drained.
2- Also nothing happens when I try charging it (I only tried charging thru the PC though)
3- I ordered a new battery, so hopefully that would fix it. Whats weird is that when I started the installation process the battery was more than half full.

First of a you need to try and charge from mains, does your pc make any noise or do anything at all when you pop it in?

Sorry to tell you but...Its bricked. Mine just did this last night.
It was charging...Once done, I took it off the charger and set it down. I came back to it later to use it and it was completely dead. No response.
I connected it via usb to my laptop to try the ADB reboot and was told by my computer the DREADED "cannot install drivers". That was the last action that happened.
Tmobile is sending me a new one. Have to go till monday with an old flip phone.
Call Tmobile. They called it hardware failure.

Holy Crap!!! I just realized what I've done. While browsing my downloads on my PC I found two superwipe zip files: One for the sensation and one for the EeePad... I might have used the Eeepad zip file!!! Damn it! Most probably that's what killed the phone... But whats weird is that even after the superwipe, the phone was on. It didn't die until i decided to reboot it.... DUMB! DUMB!DUMB!

I feel your pain. Not knowing what killed it is the worst part. I dont know if it was some ticking time bomb from a ROM, Kernel, theme, or if it was just an honest quality control issue that finally reared its ugly head.
The one clue I have is that when I got my phone on day one, long before rooting and all the magic, it did this to me...ON DAY ONE! After freaking out and doing a battery pull, it finally booted after holding down the power button for a minute. This time, however, its done for. If your PC wont recognize it, then its dead. Simple as that.
Id either call tmobile, or call HTC to see if they will fix it. (They will likely reflash it the elite way if its software related). If its hardware failure, then they will replace it.
I hadnt done anything serious to mine. It just stopped all on its own. The tmobile tech guy said its hardware failure for who knows what reason? I know that my phone has been buggy for a long time. Should have done this back when it was working!
Lesson to be learned: Dont put up with stuff that a warranty exchange can fix. Dont wait for a total brick to occur on its own. If you suspect issues, SWAP IT!

[Q] Not responding to anything (Sensation)

I'm having trouble with my HTC Sensation. I Flashed ARHD 5.0.1 this morning and tried to flash the update to 5.0.2, but something went wrong. while I knew the battery must've been running low, the bootscreen took ages (first waited 15 minutes, lost my patience and then pulled the battery, next try was an hour). so I decided to try recovery in the HBOOT menu and it jumped right to an update screen saying LOCKED in a red box and telling me to update or not. so why not, clicked yes and it took ages again. so i pulled the battery and clicked no this time. then in the bootscreen saying beatsaudio I think it crashed. now it wont boot up by pressing power button and it wont get into HBOOT either. wondering if its the battery, pulled it out and checked with a multimeter, its on 3.76V, should be enough. strange thing is also that while in the charger, the LED doesn't light up. I just dont know what to do now. getting kinda desperate.

It looks like bad flash. try running your RUU from pc while phone is switch on.

The sensation has some wierd feature that when battery is very low it wont turn on, leave it charging for an hour or so and then try again and flash as jasminthoria said.

ive had it in the charger for a whole night now, and still the LED doesnt light up indicating that its charging, its just completely unresponsive, also i dont get the feeling its charging anything. ive used 2 different chargers and i have connected it to the computer, but it just wont react, it's acting like its dead (or maybe it is i dont know). As soon as I'm back in Holland ill go to the vodafone store and see what they can do for me. i dont mind paying for the repair myself.

Have you taken the battery out after charging it? I forgot to put that in my last post

yes i have

if you can try another battery try that see if it turns on if, it does then its your battery, if it doesnt then it could be something more than that

well I've just tried my sister's sensation's battery which works fine in her phone, and it didnt work, so i dont think the problem is in the battery.

[Q] Phone won't boot at all

Hello guys,
My blaze will not boot up at all. I get no buzz, like when the battery needs charging. I have connected my phone to the computer and it still won't cut on. I have taken the battery out and let it charge over night, phone still wont cut on. I have tried holding buttons and anything I can think of my phone still wont cut on. It worked just find a couple of days ago and when I woke up I had this problem. I rooted it in nov. to the baked rom. Before I completely give up on this phone, I was wondering did any of you have any suggestions.
Thanks

Get a new battery

check for water damage, battery.. did you do anything to it?? Drop it??

Kudos to what racing said. You could try taking out the battery. Plugging it into your computer. Before inserting the battery hold down the volume buttons down then put it in. Try combos with the individual volume buttons. Just shooting blindly here. Might get download mode might not.

Thanks guys. None of your suggestions helped. Truly wished they would have. However since I already broke the screen to the phone from dropping it, Im just gonna buy a new one. Thanks anyways
