Haptic feedback just randomly stops working. - HTC Sensation

Hey everyone I have a problem on one of my sensations and just want to see if anybody knows of a fix for this. The haptic feedback on my sensation will just randomly quit working and really no telling how long it will take to start up again. I thought that this was from or even app related but even on a fresh install of my miui rom, insert coin ice, virtuous inquisition, or even quattro this randomly happens. Some can't pinpoint it to ics or gingerbread. Also ruled out rom because it happened in 4ext recovery last night as well. So I figured that this must be a hardware issue so gave T-Mobile a ring and they said it is a known issue with sensation and to install an app called sound manager which has vibrate settings in it. This just sounds like a load of BS and I'm wondering if there is something from one of the ruu's that this phone needs. Both mine and my wife's sensations have been updated all the same and mine never comes across this issue. Anybody got a good idea for me to go after?

i had same problem but i was running better keyboard 8 and it was on RcMix rom..what keyboard are you using?
Has happened to me stock, not stock, gingerbread and froyo. Seems like its a random bug(possibly with touchscreen driver, which can probably be fixed). Already planned on messing with the driver to see if it can be fixed.
Happens all the time. Running latest cm7 nightly. Rather Annoying.
Sent with a hint of unicorn horn.
this happens to me all the time.
I have the same problem, it's rather annoying.
Im having the same problem. is this only on cm7?
Used to happen to me, but interestingly enough, Swype fixed it.
I have owned two android phones now (n1 and the inspire) and they both had crazy annoying keyboards. It's like google is trying to mess with us!
I have had the same issue on CM7 and now UD 1.8.
Though... this has all been pretty recent.

CM7 | Cattleprod 4.3.1 - 1.8
DAMN!! no way!! I just ripped off a perfectly nice RealLook screen protector because i kept thinking it was the coating and my finger oils causing it not to work. I was even going to post a thread saying to not buy them because it causes letters not to work every once in awhile. It happens to me ALL the time, and seems to happen much more frequently when i use the HTC IME mod keyboard, not sure if that has anything to do with it.
Di11i....it would be amazing if you could get this working better!
Never had this problem for the first month with my first inspire, when i swapped it out for a new one (unrelated problem) had this issue sine.
Had this problem on cm nightly but since those builds are on android 2.3.4, I have not had any issues

Have this same issue....ffffff

Keyboard randomly freezes on DHD ROMs!

I have had no major problems with my Inspire 4G while on Inspire 4G ROMs (well... Stock, rooted stock, and Inspired Ace which is customized for the inspire.) On every DHD ROM I have installed, there seems to be a problem with touch input. When typing emails, searches, SMS, and other things random keys will just stop working! Sometimes I can tap them repeatedly and fix it while others you have to exit whatever app you are in and open it back up. It gets really annoying.
I am currently on CoreDroid, but have had this problem with TB Fusion, RCMixHD, and RCMix3D as well. Since Inspired Ace worked fine I tried flashing its HTC_IME.apk to see if this fixed the problem. It didn't. I seem to be the only one with these problems on the Inspire. Has anyone else noticed? Does anyone have any suggestions for what could cause these issues?
(Yes, I am aware of the problems flashing ime packages from other ROMs can cause, I was just trying to see if it fixed the problem. I had to backup zip ready to flash in case it caused FC problems...)
Thanks in advance guys!
I'm using leedroid and I have the same problems of random keys not working at random times.

Wait so there is no possibility of ripping the drivers from stock and flashing or getting a kernel with them? And how come it worked on Inspired Ace? Did gtg465x get the driver issue fixed? Not trying to sound angry there just a bit perplexed since IA was dhd based....

Might be hardware than, I do remember it being brought up and it's unfixable.. I've had it happen on factory stock plenty of times. I just change my screen to horizontal and fixes it.

Hmm... Well mine never did that. Only failed to rotate a few times due to a few malfunctioning third party apps... If i find a fix I will post it.
I've had this as well and thought that maybe it was Better Keyboard having an issue with either the Inspire in general, or CoreDroid. So this is happening to others using the stock keyboard. Glad it's not just me.

No you aren't alone... I consulted gtg465x and he only edited a few things in /system/customize so I flashed the IA /system/customize/default.xml and it seems to have greatly improved. Noticed one of those such lags but it is not the one out of every hundred that it was. I typed this a few other things multiple sms one of which was long and only had to tap one key multiple times to get it to work. And only three taps at that!
If I further test it I will ask gtg for his permission and post the default.xml in a flashable zip.
Now all that is left to do is edit build.prop to make my phone say inspire not dhd then flash from mdj v21 to 23, calibrate battery for this ROM (grr... Coredroid updates wiped my battery stats while it was only at 63 percent charge during install) and then I can finally be happy and leave my phone exactly how it is! Yeah that will last all of what? A week maybe? Haha nah I am happy on coredroid!

I've had this happen to me on multiple ROM's and it always seems to be the "e" key that stops working for me. I just restart my phone or change input methods and it usually fixes it for a while.
Wish there was a permanant fix cause it does get annoying.

According to my research, editing the build.prop file on Sense ROMS doesn't directly reflect what is listed in About Phone. It seems that you have to edit default.xml in /system/custom/CID.... before installing the ROM
Yeah I read the same thing.right after i posted that... Oh well! Maybe when I get bored enough to do it. And after further testing i concluded that changing the default.xml to disable some of the keyboard layouts and things as gtg465x did didn't really help all that much... On the bright side, i may just go back to inspired ace and use uot kitchen to customize it
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
So nobody has any other potential fixes for these freezes? Has it happened on every ROM you guys have used or what? I tried replacing my customize folder with the one from ia with cut down keyboard languages and layouts but no luck. Maybe we can find a fix!
EDIT: There may appear to be some confusion here. The problem in reference is not that the keyboard fails to rotate, gets stuck in landscape, or shows that a message is being typed and nothing appears on screen. The problem I am having here is that certain keys in random order at completely random times do not work but the keys around them do. This results in messages such as "Hey that bnd sunded relly gd" instead of "Hey that band sounded really good!!!" because the A and O ceased to function and likewise the exclamation point which is with the A. Also, at times the key will show it is being pressed but stops registering before the symbol it relates to is pressed. These problems exist on stock android keyboard and on sense keyboard. Hopefully someone will find a fix in drivers or something otherwise we will have to wait for a cracked official OTA GB update if that ever happens as they say it will...

I´m having the same issue, and it´s driving me crazy!!!
It´s weird, because I´ve had this phone for months, and had no problems, until a week ago.
I´m on Stock ROM BTW.
no solution? this is an on going problem and hard to ignore...
I have to agree with everyone here.. It is a pretty glaring flaw in the Inspire. And many people think that it barely happens.. But it is a problem that occurs for me at least 5 times a day and that is not an exaggeration. Everything that I have been reading does say that this is an impossible thing to fix.. Just a bit frustrating. Does anyone have a way that lessens this from occurring?
ive had this problem also for awhile. ive had it on every custom rom that i can think of. i used coredroid and cm7 for awhile. right now im using miui. ive tried 3-4 different keyboard at least, and had this problem with all of them. the keyboards accuracy also seems to decline. when switching to a new keyboard the problem initially goes away, but it eventually starts doing it again with the different keyboard.
finally! thanks you, guys. Finally I get support for a bug that supposedly didn't exist. I have been out of the rooting and ROM flashing game for a few months, as I got a new Inspire and never got the chance to root it. I finally caught a break from school work and got fed up with having to do battery pulls on the ATT stock ROM (terribly made, I must say. Sense froze daily.) I rooted and flashed the trusty old Inspired Ace and what do you know? flawless. as always. I flash the new coredroid 8.1 to see if the keyboard bug still persisted. For the first day, I had no problems. Then the freezes came back. I think it is very possibly a side effect of the undervolt kernel. As for those that say all phones are not created equally, and my processor just can't take the ROM, is that really likely on two phones in a row while the inspired ace ROM works flawlessly?
Edit: Also, for those that say stick to IA if it works, it hasn't been updated in a long long time and never will be since GTG465x moved to the Captivate
It's not that people don't beleive you, its just that this is not a common enough bug for it to be a software issue. It has to be a specific hardware malfunction. I have never had this problem on any Rom configuration that I have used. I have never seen it as a reported bug either.
Sent from my Inspire 4G Using XDA Premium
Good point... It just still doesn't make since since one DHD ROM didn't do it all yet others do. Coredroid I is not doing it nearly as severely cd6 did. So maybe there is hope that it is a fluke combination of hardware and software bugs rarely manifested.

Bump
Well, in preparation for android 4 I decided to get used to AOSP ROMs since they will probably be more widely available than ICS Sense ROMs. After using cm7.1 for just two days, the bug is still there. Note that this is a different inspire than the thread was started on. Does anyone have any solutions? It just makes no sense that this bug does not occur for me on Inspired Ace or Stock but does on every other GB Rom I have tested. For everyone reading this with the urge to pop a comment at me like "Stupid, stick with IA if it works," that ROM has been abandoned since May 5, so it is outdated. Any hopes for ICS roms solving the problem?
Keyboard app is not the problem. Does it on touch input (sense ROMs), swiftkey X, swype, and android default keyboard.

Sensation issues..

Srry for the cheesy title, but it's all i can think of atm.
I'm new to the Android world (Sensation 4G TMOUS being my first phone; owned for about a month) - using it on ROGERS on 2G atm until i can switch to an appropriate AWS carrier.
So anyways, my phone's rooted and has the Android Revolution HD 1.1.7 ROM flashed, but despite this, it's suffering from occasional lag and has some other certain issues such as it will randomly hang and i have to do a hard reset (battery removal) for it to function again... this is getting really frustrating because of how random the issue is. I tried the no-sense script, but that still hangs as well. Could this have to do with the kernels or something? I flashed the right radio for 1.1.7, but am not entirely sure what part the kernel plays and how it affects things.
It also at times when put on standby, fails to power on (rarely but it does occur); as in when i press the power button, the 4 buttons at the bottom light up, but there's nothing on the display... followed by them staying on for a few seconds before turning off again.
Just this morning (for the first time), when i unplugged the phone from the charger, it was burning hot.. and by hot i don't mean warm, but actually uncomfortable to hold - had to do a hard reset for it function again after which it gradually cooled down.
Another thing i wasn't too sure about is "trace". How come i can use trace in the "messages" app, but not in the browser/facebook etc. What's up with that ?
It's really frustrating that i'm stuck with the catastrophe that is lag.. once again (coming from a Nokia N95) and honestly at times i feel really disappointed in the decision i made when choosing a new phone.. it seems. I mean not only does the competition beat us in benchies/day-to-day tasks, but this horrid lag issue is really taking the Sensation right outta the contest.
I've contemplated creating a new thread about this, but wasn't sure because a lot of these issues have been discussed, but i had not heard of this dead-on-standby issue plus the fact that i sorta wanted to rant a little bit and thought instead of flooding the forum with multiple threads, why not make one big one. In any case i apologize if this is frustrating for anyone, but all i'm looking for is some help. Thank you.
It looks like these are the issues with newest ARHD. For speed try InsertCoin 2.3.4 (or RCMIX 2.3.4, they're basically the same). Probably the fastest Sense ROM
Swyped from my HTC Sensation
The problems you have, have been mentioned many times in the ARHD thread. It's a kernel issue. Try flashing another kernel like the unity kernel.
Thing is i'm really contemplating exchanging the phone for another (Galaxy SII preferably), but i'm not sure if this lag issue and other minor hiccups are gonna be a regular occurence or not.
If i'm going to sell it.. i have to sell it now when it has some sort of value in the market and not say in a few months by when perhaps cyanogenmod is already out and the price of the phone has dropped.
What would you guys do ?

You want to exchange the phone because of an issue with CUSTOM Rom/Kernel (except the lag, it also happens on stock). At least try stock/other Rom/kernel before that.

Download the latest ARHD 1.1.8 and many of these issues should be over.

Stock is worse..
@DiZzle.
Yea i'll give that a try. Thanks.
I had similar issues and went back to stock ROM with ADW launcher. I tried various kernels etc. but gave up. 1.1.8 might be better, can't comment on it though. I think that 1.1.8 was going to revert to stock kernel btw. I also used a ROM cleaner to remove a lot of bloatware.
I'm just waiting for CM7 on my Sensation.
Just hang on and follow how fast the custom rom scene is evolving right now.
I guess for kernel issues we gotta wait until there's a proper kernel source available

Sensation XE keeps rebooting / Custom Rom

Hi,
I’ve had a Sensation XE for a few weeks, and just noticed over the last few days that the phone has started to reboot itself. It’s done it whilst I’ve been using it, and also whilst it’s just been sat on my desk in standby.
I have removed all of the programs that I installed before I had the phone, and that doesn’t seem to solve the problem. Factory reset doesn’t seem to either.
I’ve noticed on some other forums that people have had restarting problems after installing the recent update, but I’m not sure how relevant that might be. Has anyone else encountered the same thing, and if so were you able to solve the issue?
I had restarting problems with my Desire HD and switched to a custom Rom, which solved the issue. Can the Sensation XE have custom roms installed in the same way, or is there a different method to installing them? If anyone has any suggestions on the best custom rom, that would be appreciated too.
Any advice would be great,
Thanks
It can be because of an update. But then more users should have that problem.
I have had my fair share of reboot loops because of software i installed that did not work well. And the phone would not boot anymore
For your Sensation XE you could try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
It uses XE clocks for normal sensations. And the 3.6.4 is based on a XE rom.
Sounds like it might be worth trying a custom ROM. Thanks!

Hi, was wondering if you'd tried the "Android Rev' HD" ROM yet?
I've had the XE for about a month, applied s-off and root immediately and then resisted any modding until last night. Applied MIUI.us 1.10.28, all good initially, then encountered a continual loss of network.
Tried reflashing ROM, different radio's, updates still no joy. Really don't want to go back to Sense, any feedback appreciated.

Hi,
I can strongly recommend ARHD ROMS .
3.6.4 for a 2.3.4 based ROM using Sense 3.0
Or the one I'm using:
4.1.5 which is a 2.3.5 based ROM using Sense 3.5
Or you could wait a little while because he is going to update the 2 ROMS today.

Do you still have that problem? I have the HTC Sensation and random reboots as well. I tried different ROMs (ARHD, Hypersensation and now the cm7 alpha10) and I always experienced random reboots I tried to track it down by studying several logcats or to reproduce the reboots, both without any results... However, I never had reboots while the phone was plugged via usb.
The annoying thing is that the reboots sometimes happen a couple of time right after one another
I think it might be the hw powermanagement, either the battery or some other hw parts.
Best
You’ve had a Sensation XE for only a few weeks, right? It is HTC's responsibility to ensure that their product should work in good condition. Therefore, bring your XE back for repairing or replacement. Don't void the warranty.

Hi all,
I am new to this forum, I do not know this is right place for this question. If not please forgive me and correct me!
I use htc sensation 4g. Then I flash to mike (3.6.4)rom, it seem smooth for every usage except its boot itself exspecially after skype calls or when its hot. So I flash again for clock to normal (means 1.2GHz). Now its less heat but sometime still reboot itself(but lesser now).
I've one stupid thing need to be add before I install 3.6.4 should I wipe user data? its upgrade from 3.6.3 xe rom.
Is there any advice to solve it?

Hi,
What you are experiencing is a poor kernel.
You can go one of two ways.
1.show-p1984 who does bricked kernels HERE (do not be alarmed by the name )
2.Faux123 kernels HERE
His latest is 0.2.3.r3,but I find his beta even better.You can find 0.2.4.beta7 in my signature.
If you want absolute rock stability,choose bricked 0.9.1(best for any 3.6.x ROM)
Good luck.
Hi there,
I had HTC sensation XE UK version, then I installed Middle East Rom to receive an Arabic update after changing the device Cid. Since I bought the device I noted that sometime it reboots after installing some new programs and also sometimes -NOT always- after removing certain programs, REBOOT sometime after I free the memory using "Super Tool Box" program, and rarely after exiting from other program that I could not classified!!!
I have contacted HTC support service, and they advised me to try the safe mode if the issue disappeared, this means it was related to some programs I have installed. This issue does not exist on the safe mode and despite removing >70 of all programs especially the system and tool programs on the regular mode, still I'm experiencing the same issue from time to another.
Currently, I'm just waiting for the announced upgrade to Ice Cream to check whether this issue is normal with the sensation XE or an issue to be fixed!!! Anyway, I was just thinking that it might be a good idea to share with a REBOOTING issue I had. Cheers…
Did you guys use some kind of Task Killers?
i had one and from that time i had serious reboot issues.
i looked up on this site and and after removing the Task Killer software i haven't seen this problem anymore...
Had that problem with the Sense 3.0 Virtuous Sensation ROM. Once I changed ROMs it has not done it since.
Clear your cache and dalvik from recovery and you should see none or less reboots.
Hey Guys
Im also experiencing similar issues
My sensation runs fine during the day then at work whilst my phone stays on a desk mostly it suddenly powers off whilst screen off
I have to reboot and it can happen again immediately after inserting my pin and unlock pattern
Im on a custom 2.3.4 rom (LeeDroid) and sometime it happens on stock kernal and sometimes on custom kernal but more less
Ive being reading about abit and it seems it could well be a 2.3.4 bug, but Ive also tried sense 3.5, android 2.3.5 and it's still an issue now and then, but thats expected with 2.3.5 being a leaked unofficial release.
Think I'll put up with it as much as i can until we get ICS or I might just return to HTC and see what they say or do.
I hope this is not a major issue. Im just going to upgrade mine to xe ;(

I will send this back to HTC asap....Bummer!

Odd little in-call audio bug

Recently I went to an AT&T customer service store to finally have my bricked skyrocket replaced. Everything was working great on stock gingerbread (they even gave it to me with the 2.3.6 update included), but when I went to flash an ICS rom, in this case CM9 alpha 5, I lost my in-call audio. Now, I know that this can be a bug with CM9, especially if you change the lcd density of the screen (which I did not do), so I decided upon trying a different AOSPish ICS rom, in this case AOKP build 40. Boom, all of a sudden I had my in-call audio back. Unfortunately, after about a week of running AOKP, my in-call audio died again. Here's the crazy part. I flashed back to gb stock w/ odin, and my in-call audio was STILL gone. In fact, all of my audio was gone on gingerbread. I've tested numerous roms, and they all seem to have the same result; Gingerbread gives me no audio whatsoever, ICS gives me audio, but no in-call audio. My first though was it was a hardware issue, but given that regular audio still works on ICS, as well as VOIP calls on skype, I'm not sure how it could be.
In any case, I'm just posting this here to warn people about this, or maybe see if anyone else has had a similar experience.

Here's my post from the other day. Welcome to hell...
Guys, I have a huge problem. I installed DPI Modder Pro the other day and set to 160. Everything was cool until I realized I could not make a call after installing 7/1. I see the time increasing and the other person I'm calling is getting the call but I can't hear anything, sometimes though its just stuck on "dialing" yet the other person's phone is ringing. I luckily backed up right after installing the 6/30 nightly but I can only use the phone after the first boot from a restore. If I reboot, calls are gone again. Can't make them, can't get them. I flashed back to stock via Odin and was able to repeatedly reboot and have phone access with rogers 2.3.5 stock. I did a clean CM9 install and like usual, the first boot ran the call no problem but after a reboot, nothing. I don't know what else to try. I've fixed permissions, wiped with CWR, you name it. I'm stuck on 6/30 and I can't power down or reboot or I have to restore to get calls back.
Please help. PLEASE.

I believe the first time I flashed CM9 I did the darkside cache only wipe as per the instructions since I was on non-touch cwm at the time.

I luckily backed up right after installing the 6/30 nightly but I can only use the phone after the first boot from a restore. If I reboot, calls are gone again. Can't make them, can't get them. I flashed back to stock via Odin and was able to repeatedly reboot and have phone access with rogers 2.3.5 stock. I did a clean CM9 install and like usual, the first boot ran the call no problem but after a reboot, nothing. I don't know what else to try. I've fixed permissions, wiped with CWR, you name it. I'm stuck on 6/30 and I can't power down or reboot or I have to restore to get calls back.

Well, first off, I did not change my screen density, yet still lost my in-call audio. Secondly, when I flash back to stock GB, not only does my in-call audio not return, I actually lose ALL of my audio.
Never lost in call audio on any of the aosp roms. Come to think of it calling has never been an issue for me.

Odin usually fixes all which is why this is odd

Although I'm still not sure exactly what the cause of the problem was, R4ins 7/03 aokp nightly finally gave me back my in-call audio. I'll run it for about a week and see if the fix stays. Until then I'm still tentative to call this bug "fixed" as this is pretty much what happened the last time I lost my in-call audio.
Edit: As I was afraid of, my in-call audio has again ceased to exist. First call worked just fine, left the phone alone for a couple hours while I went out to the beach, and when I came back and tried to place a call all I could hear was a very, very faint buzzing coming from the ear speaker.
Several months ago when it was still alpha 1 or 2 i found that after changing dpi calls can be borked so i pushed a dpi modified phone.apk for cm9 that i found in the epic 4g touch forums it seemed to fix mine and others rom.... But on alpha 5 that problem should be fixed
What kernel were you using i heard that instigators 3.x kernel had some random bugs with call audio and camera I'm on 2.8 with no probs and I'm using the nightly 7/02 build
Also welcome back to skyrocket forums you were missed

Maybe its a bootloader thing? Don't the ics leaks from design gears contain new bootloaders? Maybe I'm crazy. We need to find out if people that this happens to people who havent ever flashed the Odin ics leak prior to flashing any ics builds. I always have flashed the latest leak then went on to aosp and aokp just a **** I the dark I guess:thumbup:

The first time it occurred I was using the stock cm9 kernel provided by teamchopsticks. Since then, I've used a variety of different kernels, but they've all given me the same result.
Thanks for welcoming me back, I missed you guys too.
