Hi,
I have been flashing roms for ages on this phone and my desire so I have a fairly good knowledge, but recently while I was using rcmix sense 4 Rom (Im not saying this rom was anything to do with it) I was unable to open the camera so tried re flashing, super wipes, fixing permissions, different sense roms, cm9 roms and even restoring back ups but still my main camera does not work. My front camera doesn't either but hasn't for ages.

tried going stock by flashing an RUU?
No haven't tried that is it likely to do more than a super wipe?
Thanks

Reflash firmware first. If that doesn't solve it, flash RUU.
Here is the guide for RUU: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26541181 (XDA link)
This is becoming a common thing, mine has done the same thing and become non-responsive. Wipe, firmware, different roms has not helped me. Camera will not start.

The last alternative is to flash RUU. There is no more that can be done in terms of software; it has to be some kind of hardware issue.

All fixed took case off and tapped camera end of the floor, was bored lol but it worked

Lol nothing like getting a bigger hammer. I did the same thing and now my camera also works. I tried everything first. I took a small screwdriver and tapped on the brass colored area around the back camera and now it works!!
Seems like the least technical solution is the best. Not sure how long it will last tho. Don't think a guide can really be written for this tho lol.

My camera not work.
Have you found a solution?
Unlocked, s-on, root, hboot:1.27.000, android revolution hd 6.6.7, 4ext recovery
Sorry for my bad english. I'm a Brazilian.
Hmm, sounds exactly like my problem. Can't fix it with software either, and fixed it with pressing on the camera itself. But after a couple of weeks, it is now back and I can't fix it anymore... :/ Bad hardware...
It also looks like the camera is not entirely horizontal (right side lower than left side)

I installed Android Revolution, and everything's fine,except for receiving pictures. They come to my phone resized, about the size of a thumbnail picture. The preview is larger than the actual picture. Any help?

those overseas ROMs don't properly handle our MMS. You can try downloading another text app like handcent sms and then use titanium backup to freeze the stock text app see if that works.
Ohh,i see. Can you help me find a Tmobile stock rom?

that didn't work for me on any of those ROMS my pics were still SUPER SMALL so I plan to just wait for CM7 or a USA made ROM
It worked for me, I flashed it right after I flashed the ROM I'm using now, that's the best way to do it. Or do a wipe, but it works

and you are receiving MMS images @ 1000K?
I'll give it a shot, when I finally unlocked&rooted it, I was just so excited to flash something new,and I realized I didn't back up once I had already wiped it clean.
Hi noob here, I just want to ask if there's a way to improve the sensations antenna reception, I have been having inconsistent signal sometimes people will call me and even if my phone is on they said it goes straight to vm due to low signal specially when my phone is idle for a long time. Hope someone can shed a light to my problem.
Note: I already tried warranty exchange and same thing, tmobile signal in our area is very good.

Did you pull the battery at any point?
Check the connectors in the back of the battery cover to ensure they have a good .. connection..
Something might not have flashed right. Reflash the firmware and see if that fixes it.
I rarely open the back cover, it happened right after flashing the firmware. Could it be that i use a GB rom? I heard that it happens on ICS roms to some people.

So I went to 4EXT Recovery and repaired permissions. But that took way longer than usual, like 10 mins.
Does this point to perhaps a corrupt or bad flashed ROM? Or perhaps an app that is being greedy? Or........?

If it keeps lagging it could be possibly the rom. Try and do a clean install meaning wipe fully then reinstall. See if that helps. Or you can try downloading a different rom and see if issue is still present. If issue is gone, could have been the rom. Your going to have to do some experimenting to find out. Hopefully a clean install or different rom will fix your problem. If the issue is still present on different roms it could be your device itself. Check and see with some different roms.

Evening sensation people, I am a Rezound owner speaking on behalf of my friend. He owns a sensation that since day one has been plagued with random hot reboots. I thought it was a software issue and later found he had a faulty screen. We attempted to root but I could not get s-off using juopuntbear method. He is on ICS, stock ROM. He is rooted but nothing has been modified. He has clockworkmod as well. After replacing the screen and battery he still a year later has these random reboot issues. It is not tied to any particular action or app its just random. I love Android and have great experiences with the platform and want my friends to enjoy it as well power user or not. So if any info is needed please let me know ( logcats etc.). I think XDA's community is the best and I know someone here has an idea or two. I'll be checking back soon and I truly appreciate your time here guys thanks

Might be a faulty sd card or sim.
I'm pretty sure it was verified (as in using the device without these two for a while) but it was not mentioned...
Also, had a full and complete reset of all partitions been tried? Perhaps flush 4Ext recovery, wipe all partitions, and flush RUU. See how that holds.. and again, would be better to try that without sd and sim.

OK I'm not familiar with the 4ezt are you saying to try ruu with no sim installed. We have not tried that?
Sent from my Rezound using xda app-developers app
Random reboots could be a result of a loose battery. Make sure the battery is sitting tight enough in the housing. If it seems to wiggle a bit make sure the contacts are meeting properly on the battery and the device. Wedge a small piece of paper on the top of the battery to secure it.

4ext is a recovery. Similar but different that ClockWorkMod. You can find a link to it in my sig.
A faulty Sim and a faulty regard may cause random Reboot.
As matekaneve mentioned also a wiggling battery can cause this. Thanks for bringing that up

The battery thing is an interesting idea. He is on clockwork mod, should we just install the other recovery and ruu or flash a stock ROM? I'm just not familiar with The sensation and what people are using. Plus I have s-off on my rezound
Also was that supposed to say faulty SD card ?

If he's not s-off the only reasonable way of flushing roms is with 4Ext recovery with the 'SmartFlash' option turned on. Otherwise the kernel cannot be flashed (!!!)
And RUU is an exe file which takes care of mostly everything for you. It's an official HTC thing. You just need drivers so the phone is appropriately recognized by the Pc, and exeute the RUU. It will take care of the rest.
And yeap I meant a faulty sd card (and/or Sim)
