My phone shuts down all by it's self once or twice a day. It occurs on multiple roms. I really want to find out why. Can someone tell me how I can log wat happens?
Since I don't know when and why it shuts down I would likely need a logger wich writes to a log file so I can look back what the problem is.
I suspect it to be a hardware problem... (Don't hope so but it happens on multiple roms)
Thanks everybody
What kernels have been used with the roms?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
The used kernels were default kernels of the roms I used. Problem started wen using CM7 alpha. and now using Android Revolution with Faux123

You don't have it in any other ROM?
I had the same problem before, I changed my kernel to bricked 0.91 and the problems are gone now.
I'm downloading Insertcoin rom now. I'll report back if the problem still occurs.

Change kernels. Go from 1.5ghz to 1.2 via daemon controller or another CPU adjuster.
The bricked 0.91 also fixes most issues too as stated above

Before you suspect Hardware.. Check first your software.. I'f i were you, i'll back up all my roms.. full / super wipe, then check it on by one.. lets say IC for first 2 days then ARHD on the 3nd-4th day.. If it does not shut down, it only means one thing, its not HARDWARE, it can be software.. Check also your chosen Kernel on your flashed ROM.. there might be an incompatibility running multiple different roms and kernels..
hope i'd help.. click thanks if i enlighten you so far..
Okay, I'm back from a weekend away.
What I did before I went away (Friday afternoon) is:
- Reboot to Recovery
- Wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe data
- install zip: Super-wipe (just to be sure)
- Install zip: InsertCoin 3.3.0
- install zip: InsertCoin 3.3.1
It all went well until Saturday evening. It was off when I got it out of my pocket. i tried to turn it on and it booted up. If it is on there is no problem at all. It stays on all the time...... Until I unlock my sim with my personal code. 2 seconds atfter that the phone turns off...
Since the problem reoccurred I tried the following things:
- Wipe cache, reboot (problem still exists)
- Wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, reboot (problem still exists)
- Wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe data, reboot (problem still exists)
- Wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe data, Super-Wipe, re-install rom, reboot (problem still exists)
Is there a way to test the hardware to rule it out? The problem occurred in three different roms and got worse. I really can't see how this could be a software problem.
I'm now going to download the latest stock rom and see what happens...
I had the same problem I'm on tmobile sensation 4g in the us and I think all us sensations have the problem... When I was using any rom that was based on the experimental sense 3.5 base my phone would turn off/crash I tried all different Roms but the problem still occured, I though about it and installed revolution hd with sense 3.0 and still on the old base and the problem is gone. I'm waiting for the official release of the new sense 3.5. Hope it helps
I had the problem on 3.5 and non 3.5 based roms. CM7, Android revolution XE, android revolution sense 3.5 and Insert Coin XE sense 3.5. The last one I mentioned was the worst and I even couldn't get past the security code.
I now installed a shipped Rom. Let's see what happens.
In my first post I asked if there was a log file in which I can see why it shuts down. can anyone shed a light on that?

I am having the same problems. I tried all of the same roms you have tried and as of last week I have decided to unroot my phone and return it to stock rom and recovery. after a week I am still getting the same random reboots. the only non stock part of my phone is that it is still S-Off, but I think im going to have to learn how to put stock S-On and go yell at the T-mobile guys to see if I can get a new phone.
If you can come up with anything better I would be willing to try it. the reboots are killing me.
This issue sucks. I'm glad I'm not the only one that has it though lol. I've also gone back to stock rom, no root/S-ON etc. Just to rule out the possibility that it's something funky going on with custom roms, kernels etc. So far I do still have random shutdowns, possibly a little less than I did before, but still there nonetheless. To get S-ON again, flash the RUU appropriate for your phone, then get into fastboot and type
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
and then
fastboot reboot-bootloader
More on all this is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201773
As far as logs to track down what is going on, I think it might be in lastkmsg. Unfortunately I don't know exactly where to find that or what to look for exactly.
And as stated twice before me, the problem still exists. I'm going to undo all changes to the Sensation and see what happens. If the problem is still there the phone will go back for warranty.
And again my old trustworthy HD2 saves the day as a backup...
I've never experience having a reboot with a super wipe then flashing a custom rom.. i do it almost everyday.. maybe its already a hardware since software installation (roms, and kernels) are clean when you do the flashing.. Has your phone experience some accidents? like fell on the ground?
Not that I know of.
I'm not new to flashing and I'm a real flashoholic. Nothing ever went wrong with flashing. Where other people would have problems with a certain ROM I could always enjoy the Rom without trouble.
I installed the eu version of the shipped roms. the problem seems to be different again. Nof it shuts down far less then before but I have to pull the battery to get it to boot up again.
I hope I have enough time today to S-on the phone. Does anybody know if the box states which version number it was shiped with? I know it's EU but there are different version numbers. (or is that not impotant)
Thanks for your help everybody.
I think the problem is the battery. I bought a new battery, the evo3d batery and so far I have not had this issue again.
Problem is solved. I got a free board swap and now everything is working again. So it was a hardware defect.
Thanks for the help all.
This is doing my head in to the point I have borrowed a new HTC Sensation only to find the problem exists on this phone also.
When using the Camera App If I hit the power button the screen turns off. I am then unable to switch the screen back on - It appears the phone crashes.
Behaviour some times differs depending whether I have taken a photo or not.
The following behaviour is observed:
The lights stay illuminate on the soft keys at the bottom of the screen.
The phone can receive calls how ever it doesn't ring and I unable to answer them.
This problem is confirmed on 2 seperate devices which have been flashed with:
Android Revolution HD 3.6.12
10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 radio
I have also run super wipe on the phone before installing the HD Rom.
Please help!?
Ive also had this problem on a few diffrent roms.
But i flashed amaze camara update, and not had any prob since.
Im now running the latest ICS with sense, with what ever camara software came with the rom. And not had any problem

Having the same issues on both mine and my wives phones, both running AR 3.6.11 along with lag and other issues! Pretty fed up - and considering a different ROM. How is the ICS ROM, any issues like the 3.6.11? Is it hard to install?
I would try Elegancia ICS. Maybe a little pain to install, if you need to update your firmware.

You may have to superCID if the firware dont work. Also easy todo
See post 4

Have a read of the last 10 pages or so of the ICS thread for superCID info if your stuck, but it is easy.
I will give it a try! Do you just download the zip firmware and flash it?
It's not a rom problem, it is faux's kernel problem.
You can flash bricked kernel to solve.

Put the img zip directly on the SD card, not in any folder.
Boot the phone in to bootloader Power on volume down same time.
Just follow the instructions.
DO NOT POWER OFF REMOVE BATTERY ETC.
You will have to remove file from memory card before rebooting.
If you fail with the upload, then you will have to superCID
Hello everybody,
This is my first post in this amazing forum...Wow ..........
First of all, REALLY BIG THANKS TO MIKE1986 for giving us an incredible rom and for being always present when someone needs help...REALLY, REALLY THANKS MIKE.
Here's the problem. I've followed the guide of joaquinf (MANY THANKS TO YOU TOO) and i perfectly installed ARHD 6.5.1 XE. Everything worked great, no problems, no restart, everything perfect. Today i decided to install ARHD 6.5.2 XE (1.50GHz Kernel, no sony bravia engine support, no SuperCharger tweaks). Everything seems to work great, except one thing: Copilot Live Europe 9.1.0.161. Everytime i install it, when i launch the program it starts for few seconds, then closes and return back to home. I don't know why. I've already tried to reinstall it, to format the sd, to reflash everything (with superwipe included), but nothing..It was working perfecly under ARHD 6.5.1, but now doesn't start anymore!
Can someone suggest me a solution?
Ok, found the answer by myself....
...There was a problem with the restore of the application through Titanium Backup ......
Sorry
Hello everyone,
I love to try different roms like everyday,
recently I tried Sense 4 Rom InsertCoin,
I don't know if it is ROM or i'm not doing it correctly,
but here's what I did.....
- From arhd 6.6.5 rom, Wiped/Format everything except sdcard
- Flash new firmware, tried two different, one link from arhd thread & other from Firmware's page, TMO-3.32 latest one...
- Flash the ROM........
Now, sometimes, it just turn on in like 15 seconds maximum "brightness lowers & quitely brilliant comes up", sometimes it takes more than 15 minutes & do nothing.
if I accidently get it working, I avoid to reboot, but if I have to, it get itself stuck on HTC screen & I have to reinstall the ROM to make it work again with 4-5 minutes boot time.......
which makes my phone's base hot like real HOT
So any help will be highly appreciated.....
as I am getting more than awesome battery life on this InsertCoin ROM compared to arhd.........
Thanks a lot........
EDIT:
I used official ROM & re-rooted & did all stuff again.....
now used firmware attached with arhd & it's working great......
I don't know what was problem but it's working good now

You shouldn't have flashed the firmware. Both ROMs (mainly all ICS ROMs) use the same 3.32 firmware. So if the firmware you used on ARHD worked fine, it should work on all other ICS ROMs. probably something went wrong while reflashing firmware...
Glad you worked it out in the end.

I had the same issue, are you flashing ARHD with EXT4 recovery?
If so, make sure to enable smart flashing from the tools menu.
That solve my problem.

Hi, looking after about my problem but can't find a proper answer for it.
I got Sensation, unlocked bootloader, s-off, 1.29.000 hboot and installed 3.33 firmware.
My problem is, that installed many custom sense 4.1 ROMs in the past few days. In every ROM I miss almost every HTC related
widgets, programs. Cleared the sense cache as many threads mentioned, restarted the phone many times, installed without wiping the ROM again but the same result. I was able to install properly a sense 3.6 ROM without missing component.
If anyone knows whats the trick I would be very happy and thankfull. Cheers
Did you use the ROM cleaner?
If you didn't. What 4.1 ROM are you using?
You SHOULD be and is RECOMMENDED to wipe device when flashing rom, using the 1 button wipe on 1ext rec.
Then install ROM. (I'll use ViperS for reference now)
Once booted into ROM.
Get into widget selection page, the part saying "all widget", press it and switch to HTC related widget, it should be there.
Thank you for your fast reply. I tried to follow what you said.
Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache/dalvik, format all partitions except sd
Then installed DarkSense ROM 1.2.3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1999915
Ran the ROM cleaner to have sense on the phone.
What I get is almost no widgets, in applications no sms, mail, clock, weather. In the installer only checked HTC releated apps and widgets.
Very strange, didn't saw things like this. Did I miss something? I had many HTC phones, now I got the Sensation and now have trouble.
Thanks in advance
I finally find one good sense 4.1 ROM, the Elegancia http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429953.
Also tried Viper as you mentioned, and CommuniSation, neither was working.
Didn't get jet whats the difference in these ROMs, why one is working properly and other 3 not. Also reflashed the firmware, but didn't helped for Viper/Dark/CommuniSation ROMs.
If anyone knows what other ROMs need that Elegancia not please share with me. Maybe the problem is with my device and had to be replaced.
Thanks

buddy, you should clear htc sense's "DATA" not cache! it certainly works, as mine did

that pretty "thanks" button's waiting for u if I helped

Hey, thanks for reply, but tried that too. In apps found htc sense and cleared data, restarted but all the same. Strange thing is that with Elegancia ROM works well.
