[Q] How do I get my keyboard to work? - HTC Sensation

At the moment, my phone rebooted out of no where and not my ability to type in any app, email, text, has gone to hell. I tried rebooting and reinstalling the rom and still no luck. The keyboard doesn't show up at all. Please help. I'm currently running the Android Revolution HD 6.2.1. XE Rom. This is the first time this has ever happened. Thanks in advance.
Oh and one thing I noticed was that under running processes, Touch Input keeps restarting. Not sure if that's normal.

I would try superwiping and then re-installing ARHD. Check the ARHD thread for the Superwipe script.

Go to language and input menthod in setting . It will show the available keyboards . Just enable it to use. If it does not show any keyboard install a keyboard app from market .
Secondly before doing reinstall I will suggest to do a fix permission in recovery.

Did you perform the required WIPE steps/factory reset instructions that your custom ROM would have no doubt recommended that you do before installing?
Hi all, thanks for the reply,
I tried both coredroid and LBC
coredroid i will have keyboard issue
but for LBC i have both.
And i did a full wipe before installing... Now im back to stock rom and no issue at all.

Strange! Did you install the same apps in each case? as I suspect it could be application related.
You could always try a stock keyboard replacement, I use SWYPE but there are plenty others.....I know that this doesn't identify the problem but hopefully avoids it.
Custom Rom issues should be posted in that ROM's thread.

[Q] sensation crashing during unlocking the screen

Hi there guys!
i just bought a htc sensation a month ago and make its s-off an flashed also a custom rom (senseless rom 1.2)
now my problem its, that the phone is rebooting sometimes, when i try to unlock the device from sleeping.
i push the power button, the phone doesn't react, so i push a second time. after pushing 2nd time, the display splash on and at the next moment off.
2 seconds later, i got the boot-splash of the device.
anyone had this problem already?
EDIT: this problem was coursed also before s-off, therefore i choose this section to disks about! =)
I'm having this problem as well. I have not rooted or s-off'd or anything else. Stock rom, most apps from the market. This started happening the other day when I installed an update to version 2.3.4. This is happening several times a day and is getting extremely annoying!!
hi,
i just followed this problem again.
i am using now the Beast Rom, and the phone has still this problem.
any ideas?

Try flashing ARHD 3.6.1 from Mike1986 very stable, good support and fully operational. way better than stock.

Defrag your micro sd card and fix file system errors. Uncheck enable fastboot and turn off your phone then turn it back on again. Lastly, try not to use "kill all" in task manager. Hope it help you guys.
Crashing as well
Same here with crashing.
During unlock, when using GPS. It's now several times a day. The device has become unfit for purpose. Will try the SD card trick.

Android Revolution 3.6.7 Search button does not work.

Since I rooted and flashed ARHD 3.6.7 and installed kernel faux123v0.2.5r+ everything is working fine apart from my search button (magnifying glass icon/physical button) When pressed it vibrates with heptic feedback but nothing happens. Someone said he was having the same issue - won't work on home screen but does while browsing! Same here.
I wonder if this is the the Faux kernel or does it happen Bricked as well?
Should I reflash?
Well I haven't any issue with 3.6.7...

same here, always worked fine, did you accidentally delete google search? otherwise you might have to superwipe and reinstall everything if you need it that bad

You don't need superwipe, just re-flash the rom, you get everything back and not losing any data.
I think you also can download it in market, google search.
Agreed... A simply reflash should do the trick...no need to superwipe
There are several ROMs in which the button doesn't work from the homescreen. Maybe that's the problem? Can you try it in some other application?
yup...no problems with mine ARHD 3.6.7...do what red8981 said...i think it will do the justice...
:fingercrossed:
The rom does have the search function, but if you run the romcleaner, it will deactive that function. You can edit Rom Cleaner's List, so it doesn't deactive(delete) that function.
Search button issue
Thanks for all the responses. I reflashed, and it came back!

Market Problems

Hey guys,
I just decided to finally try one of the ICS roms - went with ARHD 6.2.1 XE.
Flashing the firmware and the ROM went fine, no problems, everything is smooth and sexy.
Before I switched to the new ROM I made a backup of all my apps with Titanium Backup, restored them easily enough and all of them semm to be compatible with the new ICS.
However, when I check the market most of my apps aren't being displayed there. The list only seems to contain apps that came naturally with ARHD.
I tried to use the Market Doctor in Titanium Backup, but it won't even show the missing apps in the list of 'fixable items'.
Any ideas on this one?
Help would be much appreciated, thanks.
Edit:
Of course I read the sticky about popular ICS problems.
[30Dec]The Market isnt working
If you're having problems downloading from the market on first boot, restarting the phone should sort it out.

Already restarted (installed a battery mod) and I can download just fine from the market, just doesn't register my existing apps.
in the market does it show htc or tmobile top picks

it shows HTC top picks, yes
well i saw that this posted a possible fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1408351&page=433 post 4330 this should allow the market to read your sensation as a tmboile one
Everything is fixed now, thanks to the help in the ARHD thread.
Changing that line buildprop + clearing data & cache did the trick. Everything is back to normal.

[Q] Stock Camera not working in Sensation

Hi, i've bought an unlocked T-Mobile HTC Sensation and was running Android Revolution HD for Sensation gingerbread. my Camera app has suddenly stopped working... I've tried updating to latest ICS from Android Revolution HD 6.5.1 but still the camera is not working. when i start the app... the screen flashes and then again I'm back on the home screen. Strangely, when using application "mirror" it starts the front camera... and that is working fine... and i've tried multiple apps from market for back camera...but its not working using any of them... can you please help me out with this... any help in this would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks

this is weird did you tried other camera apps?
if its still not working then
do a superwipe and flash rom again and see(this method erases data ..so backp them before hand)
Similar problem, if i click the camera or camcorder icon the screen goes black, it either stays black until i take the battery out or it crashes and restarts?! Weird, cant use it to take pics in any other apps either. front camera is fine on skype though...!? everything is uptodate nothing was updated recently?! Anyone
(Im on stock)
This happened to me once when i was stock. I would do a battery pull and it would work again..but finally did a hard restore through recovery and cleared all the caches and that worked. Now im rooted and on energy GB rom and I have not had that problem anymore.
Just flashing a new rom did not help. I actually had to do a factory reset on the ROM as well..in the Setting/storage.
Never ran into this problem

Have u tried maybe a different rom??

I would suggest clearing the app data.
Have you news. I have the same problem and have yet to find any solution. If you have one I'd be grateful for it.

Go to Task Manager>>Advanced>>All apps>>Find the Camera app and select it>>Force Close if it is running & then Clear Data.
This should fix it.
If not, get this app. Go to primary and secondary camera, & check if they both work.
If it works, then there's a problem with the stock app.
If not, there is either a problem with the camera or with camera access.
I would suggest reflashing your current ROM, since this seems to solve issues, many a time.
Try installing another pyramid
have you tried to download a special or customized pyramid from the sensation android development department and then tried out your 4g??? a customized pyramid + tweaks will allow the htc camera to work because the htc family usually creates htc's like as if they were real babies.. the htc's adapt to you and then little by little all the problems like "over-heating reset, camera faults and random keyboard touches" are common problems with the htc... installing a different pyramid or returning it for another new one will usually fix this..

As far as I can tell, your camera is not being detected.
I would recommend that you do this:
1>NANDROID backup
2>SuperWipe (it can be found in this post at the very end)
3>Re-install ROM (Remember to check MD5 before installing)
4>Check if the Camera works.
If not, then Super Wipe and restore your previous backup.
If it works, get back to me. (PM me if I don't reply)
If you have further questions, feel free to ask.
