I tried this on my lock screen and it worked.

Try it at own risk, I am not responsible for any problems. It worked for me
This is my second sensation with the same issue. I got my second sensation approximately 6 days ago, after my first sensation developed the lock screen issues. Well today I started to experience the same lock screen issues that plagued my first sensation. Well I did a little checking around and I think I might have found a solution to the problem. I have an app installed called mybackup pro. I have been using this app for a while and it has come in real handy in restoring my phone. There is a free version available in the market. I used the paid version. I opened mybackup pro, and I just like to say that I DON'T HAVE anything to do with the app in regards to any monetary gain, basically I just use the app. I opened the ap, i clicked on cancel for the password, clicked on back up, data, local (/mnt/sdcard) check all, and let it back up all the settings. Well I went into my settings/applications/manageapplications/all. i then clicked on the first htc sense tab and cleared the data. You will be prompted with something to the pop up stating that all the applications data will be permanently deleted. I clicked ok and then clicked on the second htc sense tab and did the same thing. You will notice that all your widgets and everything will be deleted from your phone. I rebooted my phone and then opened mybackup pro and clicked on restore, data, local (/mnt/sdcard), data and the most resent date, I ONLY CHECKED MARKED SYSTEM SETTINGS, ANDROID HOME, AND CLICKED ON OK. Let it do its thing and when it is finished it will ask you to reboot your phone. Your phone should be extremely close to the way you had it before (widget wise). And in my case my lock screen is working again. I hope this helps anyone else. Again, It worked for me.

Holy wall of text batman

Please update this thread periodically even if your method doesn't work.
Did this allow sense to operate more smoothly on your device?

I don't even understand what the issue was meant to be in the first place!!

Sorry for the long entry but i was trying to be as specific as i possibly could for everyone, and yes my lock screen responds perfectly.
This post was meant for anyone experiencing lockscreen unresponsiveness on their phones.

I already tried clearing the data from both Sense applications and then rebooted my phone. I didn't make a back up of everything so Sense was back to the way it came from the factory. Long story short. It didn't work for me. I still had the lock screen issue.

also another trick to faulty lockscreen found on another post, when the phone lay flat on table lock seems to be trouble to unlock unless u pick the phone up in ur hands...but if u have it laying on table flat and grab left side of lock and drag it to the left and the up it works everytime for me...seems the left part of the lockscreen is always ok lol (something to do with phone being grounded)

Ok, the only difference is that I restored my settings using mybackup pro. Could that have been the difference.

I think the way the app and ring move together is what causes the lock issue. I think its just the physics of the ring/app moving together causing the issue. Thats my guess. Other than the lockscreen buggy I have no touch screen issues. YOU?

Wifi problem and as of today the lock screen issue started. He lockscreen issue has been resolved.

Yup, I think I agree with that. There are some issues that just don't make any sense though. Why does it become responsive after touching the ring two to three times. It will stay responsive like it should until you turn the display off. I just can't wrap my finger around it.

Could it be something with sense?

Probably is. I seriously don't know why everyone praises HTC. They are going in the wrong direction with Sense. Instead of making it less intrusive, there making it more intrusive with SENSELESS eye candy. HTC needs to take a page out of Samsung's book in my opinion. There making there UI (Touch Wiz) less intrusive but still keeping the features that make Android better.
Sorry to say but this 3D eye candy isn't making anything better and it's quite obvious HTC half assed Sense 3.0.

LOL, Well comming from 6 G2X this is an upgrade. Hahahaha

Are you charging this via the stock charger, or via USB pc? If using a wall charger is the outlet grounded or the old two prong style outlet? I had this issue when using the stock charger in an ungrounded outlet when I was at a friends house for the week.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App

Yes i am using the stock charger

I don't know if this works for you guys .. but I had that lockscreen issue as well. I noticed that when I play with my wifes phone its perfectly smooth and unlocks with a single swipe. And she can unlock mine easily and never been a problem.The only thing difference is that she didn't take off that screen protector. I have oily skin type so I guess it must be my finger getting sticky. Went to tmobile and got a screen protector and it solves all the problem. Sounds silly but it worked for me and I haven't had a single lockscreen issue in four days as opposed to 4 out of five times before. Hope this helps ..

Lockscreen Issue [Nothing to do with the ring]

Its happened to me twice now, the lockscreen froze half way up the screen with the bottom half black(Weather lockscreen) and it still works when you swipe up from the bottom half, but the only way to fix it is to reboot. Has anyone else had this problem, and if so sorry if its already been posted.

An HTC Champion recognized this as a bug and told me it will be fixed in our first update (for the T-Mobile Sensation 4G)

so what lockscreen is everyone using when this happens? Weather, picture album, etc...Also, are you using the sense launcher or something else? I've had my phone for almost 2 weeks now and I am praying that this doesn't happen to me

It happened to me once also. Weather lockscreen.

I dont have that problem only sometimes when i unlocked my screen it wasn't good response but fixed it after some screen switches
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App

This has happened to me more than once and I almost never have my phone in Landscape mode... Maybe it has to do with the G sensor detecting it being horizontal though?

It's happened to me only once. I use the weather lock screen. I had to reboot to fix it.

I've had this happen twice about 2 weeks ago but hasn't happened again.

This has happened to my phone about 3-4 times. The only way I can fix it is to take my sensation out of it's body glove protector (kind of a pain) and then pull the battery and turn the phone back on. I can't shut down or reboot the screen no matter how long I hold the power button. I love my phone but this is getting on my nerves. It does it at the worst times.

White HTC screen after exiting to home

As the subject says, whenever I exit an app or the browser, it goes to the white htc screen and then it says loading for abt 15 second and it'll take me back home. Anyone know what causes this?

Are you using a task killer?
Sounds suspiciously like rosie is being killed by something every time it goes to the background.

it's a RAM issue! I solved it by uninstalling the new Market App (I cannot use the new functionality here in Europe, anyway) and other services that I didn't used that I had running in the background!
Problem solved!
With all the love I have for my Sensation, I feel HTC should have gone with more memory!!

How can I get the old market back?

I would have to say it's HTC's over-bloated Sense that is the problem. With CM7 I always have 300-200 Mb of unused memory. I can run games, videos, anything memory intensive and still never use it all.
As for the white screen when hitting home... It's a memory issue with Sense. I would get that back when I ran stock ROM.

My phone keeps rebooting!!!

Hello everyone, for the past few day my phone keeps rebooting and this is driving me crazy... At first I thought it was the Rom I was using but then I changed to a different Rom and the same thing kept on happening...
It doesn't matter what Rom I'm using this keeps happening, and I was wondering if this is happening to anyone else. If it is happening to others is there a fix for this or should I unroot my phone and get it replace?
Any suggesting that could help me fix this problem I have will be greatly appreciate it...

Have you updated the radio?
Do you superwipe between ROMs?

I haven't updated the radio... and I always perform a super wipe when changing from one rom to another... I don't know what else to do its driving me crazy....

Could you tell me what's your supetwipe procedure

Try a different kernel

Is it the phone that's restarting, or just sense?

Are you overclocking or undervolting your device? If so, try it without (or not as severe)
Are you using a backup/restore app after flashing a ROM? If so, try without a restore....or at least just user app restore (no system app/data restore)

Sorry I. Never replied to you guys again. My phone just stopped working... Now. It's. Working again but it's still rebooting. I notice that once my battery hits 50% or less it reboots.. I'm not. Overclock. Any ideas what I should do. I have insurance but I don't know if there's a way to unprotected the phone and make it completely stock... I'll looked around. To see if there's a way.

Mate, my suggestion, if you are experiencing hardware problems (Buttons etc) would be to talk to HTC about it.

Yes it's harder to gain S-OFF and Root with 1.2x, but it's not impossible. I wouldn't let that bother you.
I'm sorry, it's been that long since I've been on Sense, that I can't remember what's supposed to be displayed there in the battery status. I don't think mine displayed apps like your questioning. But like I said, I simply can't remember sorry.
Hopefully someone using Sense will post to help you with that.
Do you have button problems when using the stock browser?
Do you have another SD card to test for awhile? The unmount/mount issue could be the card itself. If not, maybe back it up to a PC and format the card (in the phone) and see if that helps?
