**Added a few new things now that we have S-off. Check them out below.**
This thread was created simply for Noobs. Yes, if you don't know how to boot into the bootloader..than you should be reading this. We were all Noobs once. You can always check this more than once since i will be updating it with more issues and solutions fellow members post that i might have forgot to add.
If you dont have this recovery flashed already here is a Link to a WORKING CHARGING WHILE OFF RECOVERY PLEASE FLASH IT JUST TO BE SURE YOUR SAFE here. Will get removed when Rom Manager gives you the right recovery and not a broken one.
My Phone Died and i can't turn it back on!!! help!!
1. Download the recovery i have posted above. Once downloaded rename to remove the name of the recovery until its just named recovery.img.
2. Plug your device to a computer and run the command
adb reboot
or
adb reboot bootloader
if your device doesn't turn on, then simply pull the battery, put it back in, then redo the steps.
3. Once your phone does power on from one of those commands, reboot into android OS and put the recovery on the root of your sdcard.
4.Boot into bootloader while plugged into the computer and run the following command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then the problem is fixed! I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, but thats the fix.
7/28/11 We now have s-off.
follow this guide here for a better in depth on how to do it. : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
How do i flash a ROM on my sensation?
1.place the rom on the ROOT of your sdcard.
2.boot into recovery using either the app rom manager and choosing boot to recovery, MORE THAN LIKELY your custom rom will have the advanced power menu so you can just hold the power key, go to restart, then choose recovery, or powering off and booting holding power+vol down, then scroll down to recovery, press power key.
3. WIPE your DATA/CACHE partitions, then scroll down to advanced and wipe your dalvik cache.
4. go to install zip from your SDCARD
5. Choose zip from sdcard.
6. Find the rom, press power button, and install it.
7. Reboot and enjoy!
Will i lose all my texts, apps,etc when i install a new rom?
Yes you will. You could make a titanium backup of everything though and restore it when your done flashing the roms so you can get everything back. Download titanium from the market.
What is the difference between a Nandroid Backup and using Titanium backup??
Well When you make a nandroid backup, your backing up the ENTIRE rom, not just things you want to restore onto your new rom. in other words, with a nandroid, if you want to go back to your previous rom if you don't like the new one, use a nandroid backup.
Nandroid sounds interesting and is something i would like to do!! How do i do it?!
You boot into recovery, go down to where it says backup and restore, and choose backup, name it, then go ahead and back it up. Thats obviously where you want to restore it as well. You *ALSO* can choose the app ROM Manager and do it from there.
My battery Life SUCKS after i flashed this New ROM!! IS MY BATTERY MESSED UP??
Nah its not don't worry about it. Your battery life usually is going to suck because your battery stats got wiped from android, and it has to recreate it. So let the battery die once probably, fully charge it, then let it die again. then Charge it then you should be ok. Give it a day or two you should see a change. If not, let the developer of the ROM know NICELY in his thread. If you see that someone already posted about the battery life, no need for you to post it as well.
How do i flash a kernel??
You flash it exactly how you do a ROM. No need to wipe anything just flash it and reboot.
How do i flash a RADIO?
That depends. if its in a format and the name starts with a P then has a bunch of different numbers after, then you do the following:
1. Place on the root of your sdcard.
2. Reboot into the bootloader.
3. Then it will find it, and ask you if you want to update.
4. Let it do the update. It will only replace the radio.
5. Reboot into recovery and wipe DALVIK cache.
6. Reboot and enjoy.
ALWAYS make sure you read the Original post of the person who is providing the radio to make sure he ripped everything out and its ready to flash.
My Phone is S-OFF and it fully died and now it won't turn back on and it doesn't look like its charging while its off WTF AM I BRICK?!?!
No its not. From what i learned its in "offline" charging mode since the battery is so low, and even though the light isn't showing, its still charging. To turn back on:
1. Either wait a few mins and let it charge for a little, then pull battery, put it back in and try to turn on.
2. Plug into computer, let it sit for a second, then use this command from terminal:
adb reboot
It will turn it on for you. i honestly don't know WHY its like this, but thats just how it is for right now. i personally had to use the second option. If i learn more about this, ill update you guys.
Does this Recovery update?! If so, how do i UPDATE IT?!
Since S-off and recovery JUST became available to us, its prolly not updated right now. But for future reference just download the App ROM Manager from the market. Once loaded, if there is ever an update or something for it, it will be in that app. then you can choose it from there and it will update it for you.
I hold the volume down+the power button but it doesn't boot into it!!!! help!!!
Pull the battery out before you do it. OR to make things ALOT easier, before turning your sensation off go into settings,power, and uncheck the Fastboot option. Now when you turn the device off, it will fully power down instead of just going into a "sleep" mode. Now do it.
My wifi is terrible! When i turn it sideways, i lose ALL MY BARS!! WTF?!?!
'Try moving your hand, you might be detuning the WiFi antenna'. If you know that the WiFi antenna is adjacent to the camera lens, you're more likely to be aware when you're covering it. But Your not alone either. i actually have this same problem as well. Yes i know it sucks. There are only three things you could do here though honestly since We haven't really brought it down to a conclusion of is it our hardware that's causing it or is it the software.
1.You could boot into bootloader and data wipe your sensation to see if it fixes it. BE WARNED IT WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE, MEANING EVERYTHING WILL GET DELETED OFF IT! APPS, MESSAGES ETC.
2.If that doesn't fix it, go into Settings-Wifi & Networks-Wifi Settings. Once your in there press the menu button and go to the advanced option in the pop-up menu. Once in there choose Best Wifi Performance.
3. If that doesn't work, then you need to get a warranty replacement. we know it sucks, we promise.
My touchscreen stops being responsive! Whats going on!?
It seems to be happening to everyone after about a week of use, me as well. We think maybe an ota will fix it. But to do a quick fix of it just turn the screen off for a few seconds then turn it back on. it usually fixes it whenever it stops working.
My Data connection is horrible and extremely slow. Why?!
This also seems to have happened to everyone. To try to fix, call t-mobile and see if they have your phone in their database, and make sure on their database it has that you have a sensation and they have the right data package going for you. Also make sure your Sim card isn't old, which t-mobile can also fix for you. I Can personally say talking with t-mobile helps. i used to have poor connection. now i can use wifi hotspot for my laptop while being on the phone talking with someone still with full 4G bars.
You could also try this fix ( Thanks Mysterioustko):
-Go into the dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#*
-Select Phone Info
-Go to the "toggle cyphering" button and disable it
-For good measure turn off radio and then turn it back on
-Then reenable the "toggle cyphering" button
Just got my new sensation but its really hot!!! Is it defective?!
No it's not defective, its just hot. These batteries can heat up from time to time, ESPECIALLY on your first few charges, but it won't happen much anymore after. My battery was extremely hot from just charging it for the first time with the phone turned off, so i'm speaking from experience and from other users as well.
The voicemail notification won't leave the status bar even when i don't have a voicemail!!
Simple fix: Settings-Call-Clear Voicemail Notification.
Any more questions? Please Ask here. Ill try to answer them and add them to this post. Hope this helps people. Let's not keep asking the same questions over, and over, and over.. and over again.
you should add in some of the other known issues too, such as no sound issue & the voicemail icon clear, & try to get this as a sticky.

That Makes sense. Just i never came across that voicemail or no sound issue. Direct me to a link real quick so i can add them so i can see the problem and post the solution? Thanks alot for the input i appreciate it. ill keep looking for more Problems and what not. And i already asked a MOD to sticky it. I just doubt they'd Sticky it in the General AND Developement section, since i posted it there as well for the people who miss it here somehow (or just never come to this section of our forums) and vice versa.
I've read about people having touchscreen issues, where parts of the screen become randomly unresponsive. I have also noticed this on mine. Is the presiding school of thought that this can be fixed with their update?
I also have intermittent data stalls that require a cycle in and out of airplane mode to fix. Tmo has advised me that htc is going to fix this in their update and they are aware of it.

Thanks for this. Couldn't hit the thanks button for this post. Apparently ive thanked too many people for one day
Added the Touchscreen issues and the data stalls. Let me know if i didn't put it in there right. And yeah i do think an OTA will fix it. Lets just hope for the best. I highly doubt its a hardware issue since everyone seems to be getting it after using the device for about a week.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this type of question but I didn't want to start another thread for something so simple.
Sometimes after I send a text message, the large word I typed magically reappears in the textbox. It happens randomly and I don't know how to reproduce it.
Hey
...wow... these forums are MASSIVE and I can't search noting? whats up with that?
Anyway that's off topic, so can I update the Hboot to 1.18, is the newly ship t-mobile phones at 1.18.
Issue #1: Downloaded Apps that was save on the SD card and showed on the homescreen, icons wont show or becomes like of the andriod market icon after a reboot.
Solution: Go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Choose "All" tab> and look for the HTC Sense loader app. Tap it and choose "force stop" then press the home button. your homescreen will reload and the apps icons will now show.
Issue #2: HTC Sensation's default video player, sound goes away after 50-70secs of playing time.
Solution: i downloaded a different player since im getting pissed off with the default player and i cant seem to find a fix for it. i really hope this would get fixed with featured updates.
^Issue #1 worked great...cool! But, not sure how often it will need to be done....
well for me, everytime my device restarts, i do this.
Two main issues I've noted thus far, one minor, one moderate:
1. Sense performance seems choppy/sluggish when swiping from one screen to another. I believe this part of Sense is called "Rosie" but not sure. Sense performance is *definitely* slower than the EVO 3D which is weird because both phones have nearly identical hardware. Software glitch?
2. Battery use is *much* higher than I expected even after having a couple of weeks for the battery to settle in. I'm getting 150ma to 250ma usage when phone is just sitting there, screen off, not doing anything special. Yes, I have it set to push mail from Exchange, sync weather once per hour, sync with HTCSense.com, stocks, GMail, and Facebook. My HD2 did all this with about 20ma-40ma usage so can't understand why the Sensation sucks up so much more juice doing the same work. Turning on the screen and GPS (I use Google Nav) puts me in the 600+ma usage range. I currently can't get through even a half day of decent usage without draining the battery flat.
Item #1 is probably a software glitch because I've heard others complain about it. I'm hoping an OTA fix is on the way that will also unlock the bootloader.
Item #2 is more worrisome. I can't understand why the phone is using so much more power than my old HD2 (running Coredroid 1.6). 4G coverage near me is not all that good. I have a funny feeling the 4G radio is really sucking down the juice. Is there a way to force it back to 3G mode? I don't need 4G speed all the time and would prefer the better battery life.

I was also wondering this too. I just got a Sensation yesterday and am wondering how to turn off the 4G to save juice when I don't need it

Final Root Method
Where will this be posted once achieved? I'm dying for it! Thanks.
Hello...
I'm a newbie to modding phones (obvious from the question/problem I've about to ask). I have an HTC Inspire and I followed the one click rooting guide and installed Coredroid7 with the 3rd set of radio/RIL listed in that thread. With a bit of a struggle I got it working - worked great and I loved it. Unfortunately I found on the market place an app (Overclock Widget by Billy Cui ) - clicked on "load on boot" and a few bad settings and the entire phone froze. Since then whenever I boot my phone is stuck on the white screen with green HTC logo. The config on my phone is:
s-off
hboot 0.85.0019
micop-0438
radio 26.09.04.11_m2
emmc boot
I've googled all of the internet and followed advice such as reflashing the radio/RIL. went into recover and typed the "adb shell, etc... to remove files indicated (but they were not there)". tried to do recover but the recovery files werent there. At this state, there is only so many combinations you can do and I feel I have done it all.
there are a lot of advice on set cpu problem with other HTC devices but none of them work/can be applied to the Inspire.
Can someone please help me? In your answer please answer me in a dumb down way - keeping in mind I am new and have a hard time understanding acroynms and how to perform complex operations with the hint of a word phrase (ie - please be explicit for me on how to flash radio, instead of saying flash radio XYZ)
Thanks in advance
PS: I am already nervous/scared of what has happened, I am hoping I don't have to do a eng s-off as part of the solution please
based on my description (white screen with HTC logo) have i bricked my phone or is it in a boot loop?
i tried the following
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033353
and when i say install PD98IMG.zip it just says installation aborted. This is the image I got from Coredroid7 that was working before the problem started.
also tried this:

but my phone does not have the file they wanted me to delete
If you see the white HTC logo your always okay. The problem comes when there is nothing showing, you must have changed some settings that won't let the phone complete some core processes.
This can easily be fixed by pulling battery hold volume down button and power and booting into Hboot. Then go into recovery factory reset and wipe dalvik_cache(under advanced) and flash the desired ROM or do a restore from a point your phone worked perfectly.

First... THANK YOU very very much for telling me it is not as bad as it seems.
I have done the following:
go into hboot
recovery option
wipe dalvik
flash coredroid7 again by having it be embedded in PD98IMG.zip however like mentioned above this fails.
Right now I am redoing the process again by formatting my sdcard, creating /download to put the PD98IMG.zip in follow the procedures again above. In case this fails, what are my options?
thanks for the guidance. i flashed it again with:
CoreDroid_Desire_HD_GB_2.3.3_V7.0_RV
and I am out of the white screen mode.
Just remember if your phone boots up but not all the way its still ok you can save it. The easiest although most annoying solution is reflash the rom. Also i know you hear about people bricking there phone. I truly think its harder than anyone thinks. Good luck with the inspire. Also if you want overclocking/underclocking stick with setcpu(you can get it free for being an xda member just search xda). Let it auto detect speeds. Give it root permission (itll pop up asking make sure you check remember above the allow button). If your overclocking I recommend staying undler 1.6 ghz (1600 on setcpu) and go to profile select enable. Then set up a profile for screen off and set it for around 300 mhz to help with battery life.

I think I've had about every kind of soft boot thre is on the sticky guide, and one that isn't, and I have always been able to recover (knock on wood). Even black screens...
I was stuck in a similar situation once:I forgot to take off "load on boot" and increased the max speed all the way to like 1.9. And phone froze.
SetCPU gets permissions in the process of phone boot up, after the whole OS is loaded. There is a tiny time gap between home screen coming up, and SetCPU being granted SU permissions. So this is what I did:
I did a reboot. And after the phone starts, without giving any time opened the app drawer for "SuperUser" app, and took off SetCPU permissions from there. This denied SetCPU of it permissions and it was loaded at default speeds. Then I went into Settings-->Applications, and erased all SetCPU data.
Well, it took me like 3-4 reboots before I could master the timing to get to SuperUser and take off SetCPU from there. But it atleast saved me the hazzle of reflashing everything again. And yes sir, I forgot to take a nandroid backup
thanks
Thanks All
Problem fixed
same issue only worse
I have the same situation. I flashed absolution 2.0 last night. Everything went good. Turned it on this morning seemed to work fine also then I turned it off for work and tried turning it back on at the end of the day and it just runs a loop. I can get to the HBOOT menu but I only have 5 options; fastboot, recovery, factory reset, sim lock, and image crc. There is no advance settings and when I choose any of the available options nothing happens except the phone reboots (crc does run a check but then nothing). Hooked to my pc and it says found android 1.0 but I can't do anything with it. I have also pulled the battery and sims card.

Hey all-
I love this rom, but have been having some weird problems that I can't seem to find answers to. I appreciate the help!
-Whenever I reboot the phone or plug in the charger, the locations app opens and asks about downloading maps. After I download said maps, the locations app still opens whenever I reboot the phone/plug in the charger, only now it wants me to activate my premium navigation. I don't use this, so I click cancel, but the problem continues.
-Whenever I answer or make phone calls, the speaker phone comes on. I can turn it off and speak normally, but it shouldn't default to on whenever I make a call. I found a similar issue online, which said that it was due to an accelerometer fault. It was suggested that I uncheck the option that said 'flip to activate speaker'. This solution did not help. It was then suggested that I recalibrate the accelerometer and restart the phone. I could not do this. Whenever I try to recalibrate the accelerometer, I get an error which says 'calibration aborted'.
- The phone turns off randomly. Usually when I'm in the middle of doing something on the phone. It may be due to a faulty battery cover, but I'm not sure. Is this a reported issue with the rom?
- I am unable to turn the phone off without removing the battery. The lock button works fine, but holding it down does not bring up the power menu. It was working fine, but then it randomly stopped.
I have re-flashed the rom multiple times, and even done some full wipes and then re-flashed, but these issues keep returning.
THanks all
-Gideon
Look I don't know if this actually helps but here it goes:
1. When installing the Rom make sure that you have formatted the sd card. For me this was a solution for many bugs, including navigation ones.
2. Some Roms have an option in call settings that has the speaker turning on when a call is answered, it could be in tweaks also.
3. Do you do Titanium Backup? If so this may also be the culprit. By backing up system data and application info, all previous settings and in your case bugs and problems may be coming back too.
What I do:
1. Format sd
2. Full wipe
3. Mount USB storage
4. Transfer Rom zip
5. Unmount and install from zip
6. After Rom is settled, then I put my Titanium backup files on the sd but only restore the apps not the settings or system data.
7. Also I fix permissions with rom manager just to prevent any bugs.
Again just what I do, hope it helps you out.

Seems to be somewhat common but no fix to be found...
Using CM7.1
Was working perfectly for a month.
Seemed to happen out of no where, no new apps installed or settings changed. The phone will vibrate for incoming calls, haptic, everything except SMS.
Using GoSMS but it does the same with the stock messanging app. Vibration is turned on in all the system and messanging settings. In fact, when I test settings in GoSMS it reports "vibration on".
Tried clearing the dalvik cache and tried installing this app but it won't show anywhere in the app drawer and I can't find it anywhere on the phone despite the market saying its installed. Unfortunate becasue it seems this app was designed for this very issue with desire/insprire.
Anyone have a fix for this or a method I could get the above app to install properly?
Thanks.
edit.....It's looking like an app issue......
never mind on the rom repair part....sorry
mods can delete....g
Gregsarg was actually probably right the first time. It doesn't seem to be an APP issue (as all MMS apps have the same lack of vibrate), but a broader issue.
His suggestion to install CM7 on top of itself is likely the simplest attempt at solution since you haven't found a specific solution through your searches.
I also tried the GoodVibrations.apk and it only shows in airdroid, mybackup, and managing all apps... It doesn't even have the 'open' command on the market menu after installing it >.>

Thanks. Unfortunately I didn't see this suggestion before it was edited out. What exactly is meant by install CM7 on top of itself? Through clockwork I presume?
Yeah, just flash the SAME rom again (after backing up AND without wiping anything), and your settings should stay in place.
There is also a setting in the stock CM sms app that controls vibration, which is turned off by default.
Yeah vibrate in the stock SMS program is on. While I haven't gotten around to reflashing just yet I have noticed a few other things that lead me to believe its a ROM issue. Sometimes when I put the phone on silent it turns off all system vibrations even after coming off silent. I have to go back in and turn vibration back on. This is intermittent. Also, out of the blue the phone started vibrating during calls, come to find out "vibrate every 45 seconds during outgoing calls" was magically turned on.
It WILL vibrate when an SMS arrives if I'm on a call. Swell.
Flashed the new 7.2 nightly and the problem still exists. Everything remained intact after the flash so I figure I'll just do a full wipe/factory reset and flash the new nightly again and start over. Hopefully whatever caused this won't carry over with titanium restoring apps.
Do the full wipe, install the rom... then get a friend to send you text messages BEFORE you restore from Titanium, and then after....
Easy to isolate if you're carrying the issue from ROM to ROM.
Had the same issue, could find no fix. Used vibrate tools from the market and no issues for a week or so now..

That did it thanks! Saved me from having to do a full wipe. Phone is back to vibrating with SMS and I can change the vibration pattern. Nice.
Cool, glad it worked for you. I really wish I knew what happened though, it's kind of bugging me.
Meh, technology..
*signed
Well I'll add this... Out of curiosity I removed the vibrate tools app and everything is still operating as designed. So whatever that app turned on has stuck.
Let me start off by saying I am not completely sure where to post this.
I currently flashed my phone with Viper rom 3.1.0 for my HOX AT&T.
It works great but i have come to find one problem, my speaker doesnt work on anything but speaker calls not movies or music. Resaon being is that it states the beats audio was not found.
I installed this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ng.beats&hl=en but i found my phone soundless not even a peep.
So then i tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692233 flashed it into my phone and still no sound.
So I reflashed my phone with the same rom and option doesn't seem to be available.
Has anybody faced this problem and if so has anybody gotten to a solution?
I tried using the Cyanogen 10.1 which works great but mobile data connection keeps dropping constantly forcing me to move to airplane mode and back to get data working again.
Any help appreciated.
Have you tried using cm10 or AOKP roms?

Did you do a full wipe (factor reset, wipe cache, wipe Dalvik, all in TWRP, not in bootlaoder) when you flashed? Also, don't restore any system data with Titanium (or similar backup apps). Might be a silly suggestions, although it doesn't hurt to state the (seemingly) obvious.
Wouldn't hurt to re-download ViperXL and re-flash.
You might also try to reboot into Safe Mode, just to make sure its not a 3rd party app that is causing the problem. Safe Mode is similar to button sequence for bootloader, except start pressing the vol down right after the white boot splash screen comes up. The phone will appear to boot normally, but you will see "Safe Mode" in the corners of the screen at all times. You will also not have any access to any installed apps.
I'm on ViperXL 3.1.0, and haven't experienced any such issues with the speaker or Beats on my AT&T One X. So I'm suspected its just a bad flash, or some 3rd party app causing the issue.
