My sensation xl had one major problem initially- aftr about 2 months of getting it the battery issue started where instead of a solid charging led, there began alternate flickering of green and orange led...in a few days it stopped charging when connected to the charger but the lights kept flickering and I had to switch off to charge. Then later led started flickering even when switched off. In between all of this I have sent my fone fr repai thrice and I don't know why they won't replace it! Since yesterday my fone hangs up and switches off then switches on itself by the screen freezes up. It is so frustrating!!
Has this happened to anyone else??
Oh and I did a factory reset twice last night and now the bottom of the screen heats up within 2minutes of normal use! (I don't play any games, since its after reset, there are no apps either)
does anyone have any idea what the problem might be??? its giving me a lot of anxiety and my service provider(3) is least bothered!

My HTC was working fine yesterday until it froze at one point and it wouldn't respond to any buttons including the lock button (which has never happened before except occasionally during incoming calls). I did a battery pull and at first it would only vibrate and remain a black screen, though I could see that it did light dimly when I pressed the power button. After about 20 battery pull attempts it went back to showing the splash and screen and the phone turned on succesfully. After about 10 minutes it froze again, I did a battery pull and now it only showed the splash screen and froze, occasionally showing a red light in the top left corner. My phone was already on low battery so this process went on for another 25 minutes or so (vibrate + screen, freezing on splash screen, or booting then freezing) until I gave up. I came home and charged it overnight while it was off, and it was fully charged this morning, but now it won't turn on at all, it only vibrates once with the screen lighting very dim for a moment then just has a black screen.
I've been searching for a solution for the last 3 hours, seems it could be a range of things but nothing I've tried has worked. I'd appreciate the help, I already spent £90 on getting the screen repaired a couple weeks ago, I don't really want to spend more especially if for some reason HTC decide it can't be repaired under warranty.
Are you s-off and running a custom Rom? It so can you provide details on Rom, kernel and firmware?
There were threads a few weeks back about sensations randomly dying.
Thanks
s-off?
No I'm not running custom ROM.
Came acrosss a few other threads with similar threads but my problem seems to be a combination of everyone else's problems, so I'm a bit lost
are you under warentee? Your stock so there should be no reason at all for HTC to deny your warentee. I'm curious, have you tried to put a different battery in? To see if possibly your battery has gone bad? Worth a try? Even though it says full charge maybe its gone bad? Wouldn't hurt to try. If not and new battery won't work I'd definitely look into warentee repair. You have not altered your device so they definitely should honnor repair.

Hi there,
I bought my ACER CLOUDPHONE S500 2 months ago.
Everyting worked fine, I didn't root the phone, nor did I try to. I used the phone for a coupple of weeks until yesterday, all of a sudden it started vibrating constanly. I pulled out the battery and memory card + sim and put only the battery back in. When the battery touches the contacts it starts vibrating again. So even when the phone isn't booted yet, it just start vibrating constantly without stopping.
Pulling out the battery and plugging in only the USB charger does the same (vibrating constantly).
I tried to restore factory defeaults but that doesn't help.
The phone works normally and can be booted (so no black screen or stuff) but just vibrates the whole time.
I normaly live in Belgium, but I'm on holiday in Thailand for 3 months, so I guess returning it back to the store isn't an option now.
I guess it's a hardware problem but if anybody has a sollution, it would be very welcome!
Is there an other way to stop the vibrating?
anybody has a clue?
I posted this yesterday, does anybody know what is wrong?
I guess it's a hardware problem as the vibrations start from the second I plug in a powersource (battery and/or USB-charger)
IS there any way I can stop the vibrations or is it more like a shortcircuit on the vibration part?
It gets very anoying having a constanly vibrating phone in my pants, I guess I'll could give the phone to my GF..
Hi, I never saw that kind of issue on the cloudmobile but I guess you'll be stuck until you can send it back to service. Seems to be hardware related...
Tought it would be a hardware problem... still 2,5 months to go in Thailand before I can turn it back...
Thans anyways!
Dead pixels?
About problems in this phone..
Did anyone note dead pixel on the screen? I read about a lot of users that have this problem...
Hi!
I'll start from the beginning
About a month ago I flashed the Nik Project X rebirth rom"http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2226221" and I''ve been using it for the last month with no problems. 2 days ago when I woke up in the morning (I charge mhy ohone every night), my phone says it only has 7% battery.. And I use it for the whole day and the day after and it still says 7%. There is a setting called hot reboot you can do to restart the shell so I did it and it rebooted with no problems and nothing changed. But still the 7% is there and it wont charge so i think that if I turn it off it might work charging but it doesnt, when you plug in the charger the led light flashes red around 30-40 times and then stops and the phone isnt starting whatever i do.. I try holding the power button for 4 sec and nothing happens it just wont start. only the led light seems to work. anyone of you guys that know what I should do?
please help me.. ::crying:

Hi all, I've had my HTC chacha for a year and a half. Fot the first year it worked smoothly but last six months turned into a nightmare. It started with problems with charging which today also exist. The phone doesn't charge even if it has been charging in excess of 10-12 hours overnight. Instead the percentage is decreasing until it reaches 0% percent to turn off. I overcame this problem by taking out battery and placing it back. After turning on phone again, it signalized fully charged.
What makes phone unusable is that the it constantly automatically restart itself. Usually it restarts when using applications like WhatsApp, FB Messenger, Viber or when I'm viewing a website on Opera. At first I thought it has something to do with internet but now it also restarts typing regular text messages or using camera.Tthe screen suddenly switches off and it restarts. When the phone comes back on, the battery indicator is down to 0% but after a few minutes goes back to the normal level it was (i.e. 65%).
The most interesting thing is that, while plugged for charging, I can use all this apps without restarting.
As i know that there is no isolated problem for one costumer, i suppose there is someone else who faced this proble. Also, I hope there is someone who can help me with it, I'm really frustrated not being able to use the phone regularly.
The phone is on its regular OS, never rooted. Did 2 factory resetes, didnt help.
I just got the moto g
I had updated to marshmallow just after opening the box.
It's the second day of the device and the display just turned black all of a sudden. On screen buttons gone too.
I pressed the power button and the screen turned off. When i turned the screen on again after 5 secs the screen turned black again.
I turned the screen off and on again.
This time the screen kept blinking. It didn't turn off just the contents of the screen kept blinking.
After I rebooted the phone, the issue disappeared.
I'm not sure if it is a software bug that happened or early signs of some hardware issue. I still have the 30 days for replacement.
Rest of the device is working fine.
Has anyone found the same issue?
I am using stock software, no root.
Yes brand new stock moto g updated to m and had the exact same issue, it's happened once a day so far to me (I'm on day three of owning the phone) A reboot fixes it but it's annoy I don't want to have to reboot the device all the time. I can see it being annoying trying to get the device swapped because when I wipe the device to give it back to the shop it will be working fine :-\
It just seems to happen randomly, nothing to do with a certain app I don't think, I can't replicte it when I try to figure out the cause of it.
