Welcome to my world... I had to exchange one because they got so bad. My problem is that it shuts the phone down. TMO says it is a known issue... WTF? If it is a known issue, then HTC and TMO should have NEVER released it for sale!
I've had exactly two reboots since the 8th. i'd say t mobile should let you exchange it at the very least

i had some ,but i found that it was from apps that were not compatible with the device ,just try and monitor what you install so you know what app may be causing it

Then you are lucky, I have mine bought yesterday resseting itself every 2 minutes... Too much money for such troubles. And this is the 3rd forum message about reboots I found. There should be just one where everyone could put their experience.
Moderators, please if you read this - make one general topic for resetting isues
Factory reset fixed this for me

My power button is hard to press now. It takes two/three presses to function. My phone is new so I called tmobile and they said there is nothing they can do as far as that issue. It isnt a known issue as far as the device. Has anyone noticed this? Or am I crazy lol? I looked online and some people say they were able to get a replacement. I think I will call again tomorrow. Is there a quick fix or should I just prepare to ship it in to tmobile and start the unrooting process.

this is my first mytouch 4g. i sorta blame it on myself but the phone is in perfect condition. im pretty much stuck with it until i buy the g2x next week
hey
pm me for one..i can help.( or at least try)
also i know money people wont look at this post but the same thing happened to my nexus one, the phone is perfectly fine but i guess months of pressing it too hard to get it into boot loader etc etc.. depressed the button underneath the powerbutton so nowi have a nexus on my draw that i cant get fixed htc said theys do it for 198 or 98 one of the 2 either way they can suck it im sure its not that hard to fix
so everyone take it easy on your power buttons they mess up every now and then
as for waranty and insurance i dont have any i think the insurance company is a rip off 6 dollars a month to just send u a refurbished phone that will have the same problem if not a new one in a couple of weeks if not months.
Hi guys im new in here i just bought the htc inspire a couple months ago and love it except nobody can understand me on speakerphone. Ive tried talking louder softer flip the phone over hold it further closer, everything. Ive been told i sound muffled , noisy, static. Any ideas?

No problem. I heard there's a update to allow sideloading to unrooted phones. Do you have that?

No. I just got an update the other day that seems to have made the phone a little faster but thats been it as far as updates .

Okay so I was having all kinds of touch screen issues,with the lock screen and in general the display wasn't recognizing swipes and was constantly opening Widgets and apps on the home screens.So I went to do a warranty exchange and took off my Tpu blue argyle case and after a reboot everything went back to normal so just thought I would post(even though this probably won't help anyone)there is a chance that it might.Please post your responses whether this helps or not and if your phone has been naked all it's life and still having problems.I usually always have my phone naked in a Nexus one pouch as I bought a bunch of them and like the protection they offer.

Thanks for contribution, but this is NOT a fix, trust me. Not for most people anyway.
Your a little to late to the dance my friend. This has been said multiple times over the past 6 weeks. Works for some and not for others. A lot of people also report that after a while, the problems come back whether the case is on or not.

Right on no biggie,that's why in my post I said this most likely wouldn't help anyone I just wanted to know if anyone else noticed a difference and if it came back,and like you said it does so thanks.I just thought it was odd that a case was causing problems,I was also having wifi problems and since I took the case off those too have been resolved so I guess I have to wait and seen if there is a direct correlation or couincidence as I didn't have any issues pre case.

The case is blocking some of the WiFi signal. I know its not much but a piece of rubber is enough to **** up a already weak signal.

Right on,thanks for the apology and I appreciate the info,your right it's common sense and it's just I have read of sooo many people complaining about this phone (death grip,poor wifi,touch screen issues,random reboots)and I hadn't experienced any of them until last week when I bought a case and for the last week I have had problems until today and when I took of the case off presto all MY problems disappeared.Which is odd since my wife has a similar case and has used it since launch and never had any issues.I just normally never use a case with any of my devices and haven't for a few years.

There's some things I would do if I were you just for precaution.
1. Turn "Tell HTC" off. Its a setting under "About Phone". A lot of people have reported improved touch sensitivity and speed.
2. Take your battery out and keep it out over night.
Those two things seem to be fixing the issues the most.

I encountered the laggy unlock ring problem about 2 weeks after I got the phone. It lasted about a week and then went away. I haven't had any problems for almost a month now. I've never put a case on my phone, but I did disable all HTC syncs and disabled most HTC and Tmobile apps.
Just thought I would start a room so we can talk about the latest t-mobile update.**

It's happening to me too, and a few searches on Google found some threads on some of the ICS ROMs that quote up to 45 minutes for it to come back. I'm wondering how many messages those people had, though. The last I checked I think I had over 15K (I'm a pack rat - that's every message since my first Android phone activated the night before they launched the G1). I know that it took a couple of hours to restore those messages when I first got my Sensation using MyBackupPro, so I'm hoping that will be the approximate amount of time this "upgrade" will take.
I'm also hoping that the messaging app will be faster. I had almost this many messages on my G2 last month before I upgraded to the Sensation via a warranty exchange. The first time I loaded the messaging app on my Sensation it took 5-10 seconds to show me the list (G2 was < 1 second). Hopefully the HTC ICS Sense messaging app will be as fast as the app on my G2 or I may have to revoke my pack rat status.
[Update, it seemed to take around an hour when all was said and done. It seems to load and update the screen much faster now as well, but I'll know for sure when I get some new messages...]
Ok after reading all of you guys opinions on the ota is ready making me think twice about installing it lol
Sent from My $40 Sensation
I just updated my post above to include the results. It looks like the messaging app might be faster for huge numbers of messages now.
But you may have to wait up to an hour per 15K-ish messages to do its initial bookkeeping on the first start after the OTA.
My sensation won't update. It starts the update process then freeze. WTF!

I'm happy with it, but I have noticed one issue. Twice now the screen brightness has gone way down and not come back up. I have to turn automatic brightness off and back on for it to come back.
I don't care about the blue battery icon, I use ChargeBar and Battery Status to keep an eye on charge levels anyway.
I too have the same problem, I received the android 4.0 update notic and have already download it but unable to update after the download. when ever I hit the install now all I see is an android icon and the ! mark on my phone scerrn. When that happen I will have to remove the battery out of the phone before I can get it back on. I am using the sensation 4G but running the sensation XE firmware from XDA website.

Then you need to call HTC and find out who you need to talk to to find out if your serial number is still covered by the manufacturer's warranty. If not, it's probably something you should have done BEFORE you made the purchase. I could be wrong but it sounds like someone passed a hardware problem off on an unsuspecting buyer. BUT....it MAY still be covered and they didn't know either.
Isn't it worth a try?

This is their online "Warranty Statement". But it does conflict with the results some others have had doing a return. It COULD be that they returned it thru their carrier.
