Bricking a phone. - HTC Sensation

What are some of the things that brick a phone that people should a not due.and what does semi-bricked mean the phones only half way bricked.and can all phones be unbricked if one does happen to get bricked?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA

a phone is bricked when it doesn't boot, doesn't turn on, WHEN YOU CAN'T ENTER IN RECOVERY (if you can is not bricked)...
there is an unbricking project in the development section that regards just one type of bricking....I don't know what is it exactly...
I just flash roms, this usually doesn't brick the phone...
you risk to brick when you try to change the hboot, when you try to s-on your s-off device...when you enter deeply in the system of your phone...
flashing kernel, roms, modding, rooting...these things doesn't brick nothing
so just do that if you are not a dev.
cheers

VISIONary.apk will not turn s=off, you have to manually do it.

NOTHING will appear to have changed when rooting a phone. The only difference is you will notice a "super user" icon appear on the screen. Has a little Android Head and Cross-bones. What exactly are you expecting it to do or look like?
The head and crossbones but it doesn't show up

It's just stuck saying rooting device please wait. I swear it did it in less than a minute last night and know it just hangs there

^^^^^^ Turn off the phone...take out the battery, reinsert battery and turn the phone back on and then try to root.
Well I deleted the .apk and now it won't download it oh well...thanks for the help all

Try disabling superuser logging. And it will take a while.

Idk that's how it is. I even tried it myself by finding that app and trying to install the rom. I kept getting that boot.img error. So I bought that app and I say its well worth it. Its kinda laggy with some roms but that's because its running straight from the sdcard.

It is supported, I was emailing the developer and asked him why it wasn't on the list and he told me that the code for the sensation is there and that some Sensation users were experiencing minor problems. It worked perfectly for me. When CM or MIUI is released, that's where I'm going to be using the app mostly.

Antenna Reception

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.

I regret buying my Sensation -,-

I have been looking high and low for a solution to my freezing problem but i still have no luck. My phone constantly freezes especially when watching Youtube videos. It would warm up freeze then reboot, but not a successful reboot, I would have to take the battery out and leave it to rest for a couple of minutes.
I'm not happy with this phone anymore, too much frustration for what my head can handle
Any ideas on how i could fix this

It will wipe and reflash the firmware and drivers, which would fix the issues if it has to do with that.

Newest version of my kernel has a rebooting issue that I fixed in the source code but I have not made a new kernel release yet (been busy with CM10.2). Flash r23 of my kernel and there shouldn't be any more reboots.
I regret releasing r24
