Is anyone else experiencing any problems while charging their sensation?
When I have it plugged in it seems to be very jumpy and doesn't recognize where I have touched on the screen. Example, it takes a few attempts to open the notification bar. Or I try to scroll through my home screens and it might bring up the customize menu etc etc

It did this to me the first time I plugged it in after bringing it home. I did a factory reset while it was still plugged in and it was still happening. I was about to take it back but it worked fine after unplugging and haven't had the problem since. Does this happen every time you plug it in?

I have not seen this problem with mine BUT I had the same problem with an old android phone (Behold 2--- HORRIBLE phone!) and it turned out to be a bad charger. I threw it out and got a new one. Problem solved. Have you explored more than one charger?
This usually happens if u use a non-stock charger, or if you connect too many devices to same power plug. Could this be the case?

Interesting... It happened to me with the stock Sensation charger. I normally plug my charger into the outlet on the wall my bed is pushed up against so I was pissed at the shape of the charger. I have been using my MT3G charger ever since because it hugs the wall. Makes me wonder if its the Sensation charger that is bad instead of just a fluke...
Just plugged it into the stock charger and yes, the charger is the problem apparently. Thank you for helping me discover the solution (which should have been quite obvious to me since switching chargers fixed it..) #Facepalm
This happen to me yesterday. It was fine if charged through my pc. But using the stock wall changer it started going crazy. So needless to say I exchanged it now all is right.
Funny thing is it worked perfect when I got it . Just yesterday it just started going crazy. So between this and unresponsive screen issues I just had to exchange it.

I think this could be the cause as it seems to be fine with the official charger.
I'm happy with this, at least it ain't me phone. Already sent one back.
Thanks for the replies y'all

Hey guys I just got my nexus s and im wondering why my battery is charging so slowly. I started charging it while it was completely dead and it took almost 6 hours too completely finish charging. Is there something wrong?
Btw I just got the phone yesterday and this is my second charge.

Are you using the factory wall charger or? Are you charging with a wall charger or USB hooked to computer/car? I honestly do not notice this problem with the NS.

I was using an iPod wall adapter right now because i forgot mine at home..
Also I know this is offtopic but can someone tell me how to optimize the battery life on this phone? Idle why but I feel like the battery isn't that great on this phone

Mine took like 3hour 20min-ish for the first charge. 3hour-ish for the second and third.

If you have the Super Amoled version, then you can use an all black desktop screen saver, switch your email/Facebook/weather syncs to a later time (2-6 hours instead of every 30 minutes), put the phone in 2g only mode when your not browsing the web or downloading apps, etc.

What the hell does this got to do with a 6 hour charge time ? As if the display is on all the time... or as if the syncing uses 10%+ off battery. It has nothing to do with this stuff, you're just not on the same page as the problem.
Try again with the original charger plugged into the wall socket, not into USB.

Why don't you read before you post tough guy? You sound real stupid. The OP asked an off topic question about how he can gain better battery life. "Hooked on Phonics" anyone?

Oh, I get it. Sorry, my bad.
I realised my Nexus S does take some time to charge up fully as compared to my Incredible S though.
Charger's rating is diff though after observing. 1A against 0.7mA

Mine takes about 3hr 20mins(+ or - 10 mins) usually. I guess that's pretty normal?

Hey guys!
Recently took the plunge in the Marketplace and purchased a new Samsung Infuse MHL cable.
Stupid me, I didn't even check threads to see if it would work on the Sensation, shortly after, I noticed alot of people having problems with MHL cables on their Sensation.
Well, I received the Samsung MHL today and it works 150% on my Sensation running the latest Leedroid.
Simply plug USB from MHL into Sensation, Power charger to MHL, and HDMI to MHL and it will broadcast your phone on the TV. Everything you do on your phone will show up on your TV. I then selected a movie file (Halloween 4 ) and It works perfectly!
Just a heads up for anyone wondering!!
That's what I've been using for a couple of months now. The best part is you can plug the usb end to your laptop and set up the rest, it works fine but it doesn't charge. Just FYI

I was using insertcoin, I think it just shows its charging but its actually not. The icon just shows its charging. Keep it on for a while and let me know if it actually charges. The original tmo mhl cable couldn't do that.

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?

Hi,
I saw someone with the same problem.
He removed his sim card,left it for a while ,then switched on the phone without the sim card.
Might be worth a try.
Tried it, still no luck any other solutions?

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.

can you return it with manufacturers warranty to tmobile or is there another warranty you need
Have you tried another battery before you return it? Could be a bad battery?

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
Hi
My battery doesnt charge or at least not good. Im charging for about 11 hours now and it only charged 50%. Sometimes it when it charges im losing some %
ive already tried to wipe my battery stats but it didnt worked
Im using insertcoin evolution v2
Thanks

Are you charging via pc ??
Sent From My Sexy Sensation.
Have you tried a different battery? Perhaps a new battery would solve the issue? This way you can see if it's the device or battery. If your still having troubles with a new battery it could be the device or the charger It's self. Hopefully its something as simple as needing a new battery but you must do some experimenting to find out. I'd start with a new battery and see if that corrects your issue. Best of luck.

Try restarting the phone. For me after this is done, charging time improves significantly. Don't know why but it works.
My phone charges in about 4 hours or so. However, my car charger does it in half the time. It may be the lame charger that comes with the phone that is the problem.
