Hi guys,
I've just bought a sensation. I've started to use it while charging the battery. When I tried to make my first call, it turned off. Then it turns on, but turns off again. A few times it turned on and i could use it for a while, but then again it turns off. is it related to the battery or something else? should I try to below methods although it is brand new?

My first smart phone and it's discouraging :/
I will appreciate if you help.
Is it stock? Try running the RUU, but it sounds like you got the defective one :/

Problem with your ROM probably. Try to root your phone and flash a custom ROM

pull out your battery
put it in again
turn the phone on while holding volume
go to recovery and reset to factory settings

I checked all the other bricked threads and none have the same problem as me.
My HTC ONE X will not boot and or charge. I cannot get access to the bootloader or recovery.
My HTC ONE X had it's bootloader unlocked via the rogers htc-dev method. I also installed clockwork recovery. It is rooted also but you prob figured that already...
I pulled a bonehead move by flashing the MIUI rom the international one x by changing the update script to flash onto my phone. After it flashed it looked like it worked. When I left recovery and shut the phone off it would not turn back on.
I called AT&T they said they will switch it for me when they get a shipment but I want to keep this phone because the boatloader is unlocked and they might patch the rogers method.
Thanks in advanced.
P.S. I know how to use adb and other tools such as RUU and they did not work.
Have you tried holding the power button for 10 seconds to reset it? You should see the 3 lights below flashing.
Ouch.... Another loss for htc sales

you cant get to hboot? 0.o
First of all, you should be able to get to H-Boot by holding volume down when turning it on.
Second of all, this is why they lock the bootloader in the first place.

H-Boot key combo is not working.
I have been flashing roms since the samsung moment, I built and modified roms on my EVO and ported roms from other phones to the EVO. I always had recovery to fall back onto to get my phone booting again. Even when I had the Xperia Play that required a PC to boot recovery I was still able to get the phone to work. This phone is strange that is will not even turn onto H-boot/Bootloader.

Im glad I have my iPhone to fall back on but it is really annoying that I cannot even get the bootloader to load. I only had it 3 days and already broke it.
Thank God the dude at AT&T cannot get into the bootloader also to see that is was tampered with so they are giving me a replacement.
And people wonder why at&t locks their phones down. I'm guessing you just told them "my phone broke...I have no idea what happened". Just lovely.

Honestly, not trying to call you stupid or something, but did you really think it was going to run on this phone when it was meant for another one? The GPU and CPU are completely different...
Anyway, I'm glad AT&T is replacing it for you. Hopefully if someone else bricks the same way then they will be able to get a replacement as well.
so you are smart enough to use adb, an RUU, unlock your bootloader, root, flash roms.......but you aren't smart enough to see the hundreds of posts saying that the international roms don't work on our phones??
lol
Coming from a phone that is virtually unbrickable (Captivate), I'm quite curious about how you managed to get it into this state. What exactly did you flash? Did the package contain both the system image and bootloaders for the tegra3 one x?
Just pull the batte..... oh

My EVO was unbrickable too, I flashed a rom that was designed for the international version. It only contained system and other basic rom stuff, nothing that was crazy.
No idea why you wouldn't be able to boot into recovery then. I hope all HTC handsets aren't like this..

Total stock, no root (stuck with 2.2 from factory)
It happens quite a bit. Phone seems to freeze, screen times out, won't power on with power hold, won't go to bootloader with volume and power. If I plug it in, led won't turn on.
If I wait about 2-5 min then phone will be charging and I can reboot, power in etc.

You can also call HTC. They won't send you a phone. They actually will fix your phone, although you will be without a phone for a few weeks.
If you do go through AT&T, there is a chance you get a 1.85 phone so you can root!
Tried installing a ROM, and being the noob that I am it was an International Rom. I used TeamWin. Can't post outside links because I'm new. The rom was IceColdJelly AOKP ROM from onexroot.com
I realize I was stupid. I just want out of this situation and I'll be really careful for now on. Is my HOX a lost cause? I bought it about 2 weeks ago (Really unlucky with the whole price drop...). And now, I've done this.
I get it, I've learned my lesson. XDA please help me out. How can I fix this brick? (If it is a brick? I'm assuming.)

Yes, it's a brick, but there is a fix if you have access to a Linux computer and know what you're doing.
beaups said:
when the device is bricked (qhusb mode), after pushing and holding power for ~10 seconds - in linux shortly thereafter all of the partitions will enumerate and expose themselves to linux for about 5 seconds (you'll see sdX1, sdX3, sdX8, about 30 partitions alltogether). During that quick 5 seconds you can DD whatever you feel like back to those partitions.
.
This is how I've recovered bricks. Corrupt hboot --> Brick device. DD back correct hboot while in this mode --> unbricked

Good point, if you were on stock 2.20 before, it's not bricked, you just need to get back into recovery and flash something else.

Can your computer see it? Was it fully charged before?
Try plugging into the charger for a while. The battery in this phone has a weird tendency to suddenly lose all its charge.

That's not good. What does it look in explorer like when it shows up? Do you see QHSUSB anywhere?
The new hboots won't allow flashing of an incompatible Rom. Make sure you charge it for a while hold power button and volume down for a few seconds and see if capacitive buttons flash. If so, release power button but continue to hold volume down and see what happens

Okay, a couple of questions:
-Are you certain you were on 2.20? I ask because there have been cases of people buying One Xs recently and getting phones on 1.85.
-The phone is completely unresponsive despite being plugged into an outlet (not your computer) for a couple of hours?

Okay, one last thing. Open up Device Manager in Windows and expand the whole directory tree. Check "DVD/CD-ROM devices" in particular. Plug your phone in and see what happens.
If nothing happens at all, try leaving it plugged in overnight and see if anything is different. If it's still dead, it's bricked, whatever you did with it. Since it's new, you should be able to return it and get a new one.
Idk what to say if you were on 2.20 it should of failed the Rom flash...but it successfully flashed ?

well to relock the bootloader and unroot it you need the usb as you said, if you don't manage to get it working then it is pretty impossible to restore it to stock

Just that. Use an app to initiate the reboot sequence since your power button is broken
Sorry to say but without a power button or USB port there is now way to unroot and s-on your sensation. Your best bet us to see if yo can buy the parts online or buy a broke sensation and do a parts swap.

Hi.
I'm trying to find a solution of my Sensation problem for 3 days and i'm asking you guys what can i do with it.
I bought a Sensation and it run perfectly for a week, than startet to reboot and etc. Mostly it happens when i use WiFi or camera, it turns off and won't start again, i need to remove battery for 5 minutes and then it starts normally. I tried factory reset but didn't helped. Also when i remove battery and put it again and turn on it turns this screen with all info and options like Boot, factory reset etc without pushing vol+pwr buttons.
How can i remove this problem from my HTC? Installing new rom or something? Please help me if someone can.

I would suggest jnstaling the RUU for that model and carrier. I had a sensation 4g from when it came out, I bought it from tmo us and I did notice that if your battery is bad or near the end of its usable life it can cause the phone to turn off when taking pics xause this did happen to me very often. Unless you are willing to buy a replacement brand new HTC battery
