Yes take it back, they will be nice enough to replace it. Try and show them the problem also so they understand...the day I purchased my inspire I had a few stuck pixels and I returned it the next week and they didn't even care...

Go to setting display and turn off all animations. Try that and see if it works

if you cant return it try rooting and installing a custom rom..might fix the problem. if you cant return it you've got nothing to lose

Nothing would work so I ended up just giving the phone a full reset and it works now.

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 ..

Worst reboot times?

I started this thread because I want to know did anyone's g2x reboot at a very bad time?
Mine was when I was showing off my phone to my friend and showing how fast it is. I gave it to him to see and he just scrolled one page and it rebooted. I was embarrassed. Anyone else?

Right at the climax of an awesome sexting session with lots of good pics and video. She had passed out by the time it came back on. Blue ball city.

I bet you where embarrassed. The funny thing is that it was my first ever reboot, usually it just turns off.

Big Time problems! It started a week ago where I lost data and was advised by Rogers techs to "Try" a bunch of things and was told to do a "Factory Data Reset". I hated to but they said it was the thing they knew to try. Did it and got data backi for a few days and now I have NO Service and can't connect at all. They are sending new phone and will be here hopefully tomorrow.

It's 4 g lte and never switches and when I look at data it just said connecting and when put in and out of airplane mode it said connected and then works

I guess I'll wait till the ota update and if that doesn't fix it I'll exchange for another one
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

I think i had this problem, lost all data connectivity until i either restarted or toggled airplane mode.
My sim didn't look like it was correctly installed because the tray was protruding a little bit. I removed the sim tray and messed with the card a bit, it looks like it fits better and i haven't had a problem in 2 days.
Battery has also been better since then, hope this helps if we're having the same problem.

I'll try it thanks

Funny thing since I have been home my phone has been at ten percent for 2 and a half hours and just dropped to nine percent don't know what's up with that I'm gonna let it get to one then recharge

And no data issue maybe it's just were I work

It's not just you. My phone did this a few times while I was at school. At first I thought I just lost connection cuz I get crappy reception anyway but after a whilr I noticed it wasn't reconnecting so I restarted and it turned on again. It happened 3 times while at school. 0 at home.
I've only had it for about 24 hours so I'll let you know if it happens again

Happened to me today too. A quick airplane mode fixes it But if it starts happening all the time then ill be pissed.

Sounds like a trend lovely

Check out connection checker in the play store. Makes this issue a little more easy to cope with.

I have the One X with AT&T. I have not had any issues with data so far. But did have an issue with my WiFi.

I've had that issue twice in the last three hours. Is it a hardware or network issue? Starting to grind my gears.

I took mine and got the simcard switched out. The....ahem...nice person at the att store said my phone could be going bad and suggested if this happens again to switch it out. I love the way they train their people.

Overheating question.

When I watch a tv episode on the internet on my phone it gets really hot. And every time I'm done watching it and click the home button sense always re-starts. It goes to the "loading" screen. I was wondering if this was due to overheating? Does anybody else's phone do this too?

Nope, you are just away from the launcher long enough that the OS is unloading it from memory.

I forgot to mention that at the bottom of my screen every now and then there will be a gray box with "preparing sim" in it. What is this? And why is it doing this?

It's probably either because you are switching airplane mode on and off. All it means is that it's checking to see which phone number your phone has so you get access to the cell service you paid for. It really is trivial.

But never once have a turned airplane mode on.
