he guys!
i need a little help and i can't seem to find a thread that might help me.
i have an htc desire (root+s-off) and two days ago tried to flash a new rom. and as i was already at it flashed the newest radio version and an sd-alignment, because i had just before had had to flash the original shipped rom because my phone didn't react anymore. so i did the root and s-off again, flashed all three zips and rebooted. after that my display went black and nothing happened for a while so i removed the battery and tried to restart the phone but it didn't. i tried to connect it to my computer and it doesn't recognize the device anymore.
either i removed the battery too early and bricked it or it was a bad idea to flash 3zips at the same time.
has anybody encountered this before and is there sth i can do?
any help will be greatly appreciated.
Can you boot into the bootloader through Vol - and Power button?
unfortunately no.
device does not react at all. i can push any button but the phone stays dead. screen stays black, no LED flashing, doesn't vibrate, nothing!
Maby its time to part as equals and donate it to the dev team?
Do you want to help out developers? Got a broken device?
the desire won't help them because it has a snapdragon cpu.
is there really no possibility to fix this?
maybe a too simple solution, but could the battery be dead or empty?
since you get absolutely no reponse...
I considered that too but the battery was NOT empty when the phone died.
I thought it might still be that the battery is just broken but I read that when you take out the battery and connect the phone to your computer or plug in the charger the LED still flashes. And with my phone it doesn't.
Your led won't flash if your phone is off. Try taking out the battery and plugging the phone in to the charger and see if it turns on.

How long do you let it charge before trying to turn on? If its right dead, then you should probably leave it plugged in for ten minutes or so before trying to turn it on.

But if I take out the battery how can it charge?
I thought if I take out the battery and plug it in, it should come back to life immediately?
But if you think that could help, I'll be happy to try.
So let me sum this up to be sure I got it right:
I take out the battery, plug it in, wait for a couple minutes and then try turning it on, right?
YOu should take the battery by pluging it at least 5 - 10 minute for sure it is already charging then try to turn on your phone again, this might work
im not sure the phone will work at all without the battery in place (haven't tested)
But i think that Kenny means, putting the battery in and letting it charge for a little while before trying.

The phone will work while plugged in without the battery. But try what Kenny suggested.

hello. i am looking for some help from some good android guru. my phone was acting up on the ROM android revolution version 3.2 so i tried to re flash and i wiped the phone and everything. then i got a error saying something like catche partition cannot read? but then i got the PD198IMG from the ace hack kit and i put it onto the root of the SD card and booted into HBOOT. the system flashed it fine and everything no errors. the phone rebooted and then said HTC then went to HTC then under neath it "quietly brilliant" and it just sat there for 10 minutes. and every few minutes the screen would go black then said the quietly brillant on it. after i while of that i just took the battery out. i wasnt home at the time so when i got home i tried to turn it on and nothing. when i plug it in nothing. so i thought the battery died and the phone didnt want to charge it. so i got a external battery charger from amazon that actually charges the physical battery. so when it was charged i put it back into the phone and the phone will not turn on. i dont know what to do. any help guys? if i try to send it into HTC can they tell if i rooted and turned S-OFF. or should i bullshi* them and act like i dont know what is going on. and send it in. any help would be good thanks so much guys!!

Have you thought about posting this in the correct forum?

Is any power getting to the phone. When you have the battery in and try to turn it on do any of the leds flash? when you have the battery in and it plugging into a wal charger do any of the leds light up?
Moved to proper forum.

nothing is turning on the phone is COMPLETELY black..
If you cant get into hboot and the orange led doesnt turn on when you plug it i to ac power then your device probably fried. Behold the warranty; if it wont turn on you dont have to return it to stock.

If your bootloader is unlocked, read my signature.
But im hoping someone here can tell me otherwise.....
Was at work last night, playing a game on my phone when the battery got low (6%) so i stopped playing, let the phone sit, looked at it a little while later and it was at 2%, it died before i get out of work, no big deal. Get in my car and my car charger isnt working. My car charger has an extra usb outlet on it so i check that with my ipod and it works, so i immediately assume its the phone off charging issue i had before. Except now im not even getting the amber led saying its even trying to charge. Ive tried my wall charger, usb, pulling the battery and leaving it out for a while and nothing. Ive looked around and this has happened to a few people, but they were all under warranty (which i am not) and got it replaced. I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else and if so how did they fix it?
I had the same problem, are you using a custom recovery? The thing that fixed it for me was to charge the battery out of the phone on my external charger
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
yeah im using a custom recovery but this hasnt happened to me in a long time. I just recently flashed to the latest CoreDroid and (i think) this is the first time my phone has fully died on me since then but im not sure. My girls friend is gonna come over in a little while, she has the same phone as me so ill see if her battery boots my phone up n if so then ill charge my battery then replace the recovery.
Do: take the dead battery, Sim and micro sd card out. Hold the power button for 5-10 sec. Reassemble, connect wall charger and don't touch anything for at least an hour. Restart, phone should boot now.

Thanks trying this now. Still have no amber charging led but maybe ill get lucky
Probably old recovery with charging issues. Look up threads by vladnosferatu , he posted a revival method ages ago.

Didn't work for me
**** I think the same thing is happening with me.
Okay no, my charger cable was just loose
so, yeah. My phone is officially ****ED. Just put a fully charged battery in it from my girls friends phone, still wont power on :/
This is even more ****ty due to the fact that i have no warranty
ANYONE know ANY way around this?
If i can somehow get HTC to take this back an send a re-furb im deff. selling it and going back to Samsung. This is the 3rd HTC phone ive had thats given me problems.
Interesting. Would be nice to know what caused it. There is a way to check via adb wherever It's alive a bit, but I'm not sure what commands. Try leaving it with battery out overnight for now.

my computer wont even acknowledge my device never mind adb. Im close to just breaking this damn thing
I've got stuck with this issue on a couple days ago.When I try to plug the charger an LED light will blink all the time and the phone can't turn on, so I left it for about 5 minute(LED still blink all the time and I can't turn it on).After that I pull a charger from the wall and plug it again at the different plug,then an LED light turn normally orange not blink anymore.After a few minute I've tried to turn it on and it work again!
Why no warranty? Don't HTC have at least one year warranty? The phone hasn't even been out that long. HTC fixed my HD2 under warranty even though it was over13months after I bought it.

Got a hold of HTC. My phone is still under factory warranty gonna send it out tomorrow to have it fixed, the phone doesnt even turn on so im hoping there will be no way for them to find out its rooted.
Hey guys!
So if I'm charging my phone while it is off, I am not able to turn it back on unless I unplug it. Not a huge deal but it is a bit bothersome. Just wondering if everyone's phone was like this too?
Thanks!

Have the same experience with my phone, and I know am not the only one. Someone mentioned it in the development section some time back and one of the devs(tbalden I think) said it was normal.
Best way around it is to let it charge for a bit, like 10 min or so if the battery was completely drained, unplug power it up, and as it boots you can plug the charger back into it.
You just need to unplug it when you're powering it on. When it turns on just plug it back in, simple. And not that much of a pain if you do think about it

This is the answer.
I'll bet the people having charging issues are probably still on either the cwm 4.0.0.8 or the MoDaCo cwm 4.0.0.9
This phone does not have a dedicdated hardware circuit for power, and so the recoveies have to account for that.
CWM 4.0.0.8 is installed with revolutionary, and cwm 4.0.0.9 is available here - for a long time those were the only options we had.
Eventually Koush wrote us an official clowckworkmod recovery, which is 5.0.2.7 and found at clockworkmod.com and properly handles the issue at hand.
Here is a very detailed explanation of exactly where it messes you up that I wrote describing the problem back in august.
Hey blue go on IRC plz
2 weeks ago I have bought a HTC Sensation, branded by Vodafone, LOCKED, S-ON, HBOOT 1.27, firmware 3.32, everything works.
I have done S-OFF via juopunutbear , superCID, debranded, firmware 3.33, latest radio, and 4ext recovery.
I have tried many ROMs like: ARHD, Pyromod, AOKP, CM10, official CM9 stable, ViperS, and OpenSensation.
I have also tried many KERNELs : SebastianFM, faux132, bricked kerlnel, DragunKernel and tamcore.
OpenSensation and tamcore were last working.
Last night I have installed HyperNonSense-v3.4 , but it don't load. It's only show a HTC logo and restart.
So, i press Vol - and enter bootloader. Select recovery and it normally boot into 4ext recovery. I have battery charged only to 30%.
It was late night and i was tired. So i put my phone on table, DON'T TURN OFF and go sleep. (08 september 1:25 AM)
(9:25 AM) When i wake up, i see only 3% charged battery. So i go have a breakfast but when i come to bedroom, my sensation was OFF.
(8:15 PM) A half hour ago i put Sensation on charger, but LED don't turn ON.
I can't turn on my phone.
Tried to remove battery and other things many times.
But i still CAN'T TURN ON!!!
PLEASE, can SOMEONE HELP ME???
:crying: :crying: :crying:
i don't know if it helps but pull out the battery again,also take out sim and sdcard and charge the device as it is for 5-6 hours
then put them again and try to turn it on
best wishes to you

Try to leave the phone to charge a couple of hours and then.
Try to turn it back on a combination of up and down volume and power button.(all buttons in the same time)
My friend had this problem with htc evo 3d.
He was able to solve it in this way.

I have heard of this happening A LOT with this device. It makes me afraid to death to EVER let my battery run down all the way! I'm wondering if it isn't some sort of "bug" the sensation has ? I've personally read of this happening at least ten times! I'm wondering what causes this? People say there device is running perfectly fine then battery runs down and it won't turn back on! Too many people with the same story to be a fluke thing... Some had success with charging without sd and sim for several hours then replacing sd and sim and put back on charger for a while. I hope this helps and wish you the best.

Ok to actually put some knowledge behind this instead of people guessing whats wrong:
Good news is the phone isnt bricked.
Basically htc build in some code that means if the battery runs completly flat, it wont turn on again until it is charged to at least 30 % - it doesnt even power on the charging LED.
Trust me, I have had this problem myself but after charging for a few hours it should turn on

On Monday night I used the Juopunut bear S-OFF method successfully and then installed ClockworkMod Recovery and Cyanogen Mod 10. It was working like a dream I absolutely loved it. I restarted it many times etc and it worked completely fine, I had zero issues. However last night, I turned the phone off and then plugged it in to charge. When I woke up this morning I cannot turn it on, no matter what I do. When I plug it in to the charger the orange light turns on for about 1 second and then turns off. Is my phone bricked? Is my battery dead? Thanks in advance

yeap leave it for a while
It works!
After letting it charge for about 20min while the orange led blinked on and off every second I unplugged it, held down the power button, and the beautiful HTC logo illuminated across my screen. I'm now up and running and the device is charging. I'm very glad I didn't buy a new battery for $40. I'm hoping this will never happen again but if it does I won't be alarmed. If anyone out there is having a similar issue do not fret!
Problems with HTC Sensation
My HTC Sensation has become unusable due to faults that have recently developed. I sent it off to HTC but apparently it has 'water damage' even though I've always been incredibly careful with it and never dropped it in a puddle or anything.
I'm new to this website so I'm not sure how to go about getting advice.
If someone could help me on how to get some answers it would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
I dropped my mobile in water, dried it with hair dryer left it fir a week and then it started again.
