My sensation restarts on its own(happens quiet often) after the 4.0.3 OTA..................
HELP.............
Also wanted to know how to open fastboot mode In sensation(Im new to HTC).........
For Fastboot mode, turn off your phone ,remove battery and replace or uncheck fast boot ( do this in setting <power<uncheck fastboot )press power button and volume down button together at same time. Now you will see Hboot menu select fastboot using power button if you want to scroll up and down use volume buttons.

Restarting problem
I have had phone powering off by itself.
I have tried different software solutions as well as factory reset but it did not helped.
The real problem is hardware. To be more precise, the pins which connects to the battery simply does not do that.
- Power off your phone.
- Remove the cover
- Remove the battery
- cut the small piece of paper (thick as business card) and insert it opposed to the battery connectors. Insert it while putting battery back, between battery and casing
- Power on you phone
To me it works for last two months
PS: I will try to include the picture.
Did factory reset and it worked for me.
BTW thanks....

I think your powerbutton is stuck into "on" position this is the reason of booting from alone...
This is hardware problem..
S.R.
This Phone makes me crazy, the biggest problem is... its not my Phone! i borrowed it
The Phone is never rooted/unlocked
Locked - S-On
The volume down button does not work anymore.
I took the Phone apart and removed the flex cable, but had the same problem.
The Phone Always start in bootloader mode (white background and the options) if i dont do anything
If i pull the battery out and i hold volume up and power button it will boot to the Phone with safe mode.
I used a ruu from somewhere but still safe mode
I tried to unlock the bootloader with fastboot but i cant select yes with the power button (it doesnt do anything)
What are my options now, i dont mind loosing everything!
From your explanation it seems the phone is stuck with volume down button pressed/on
That's why normal boot is taking you to bootloader and from bootloader it is taking you to safe mode
Try to readjust the flex cable

I have an odd problem and I don't want to re-flash my ROM until I figure out what it is. Whenever I power down the phone, I can't power it back up again unless I remove the battery for a few seconds and put it back in.
When I press the Power button after powering down (and leaving the phone "dead" for a few minutes), it won't turn back on. If I press and hold the Power button, the soft touch buttons at the bottom (home, menu, back, search) will start flashing. If I try to power up from power off state after the phone has been charging overnight, nothing will happen. The battery in/out trick clears it allows it to power up normally. Other than this the phone seems to work fine.
DETAILS:
Phone: Sensation 4G TMO version
ROM: ViperS C2 5.3.0 (De-sensed)
S-OFF (Juponutbear trick)
Latest 4EXT recovery.
Any thoughts what could cause this? I was running CM11 but decided to go back to ViperS because of battery life. This just started happening with my most recent flash effort. (I do a full wipe each time and install the updated WiFi package thing.)

go to settings and untick fastboot
Thanks! That seems to have done it. Fastboot was OK on other ROMs. Wonder why not this one?
Hi there,
Sorry for my bad english.
Im having a big issue right now with my Nexus 5.
My Android is 6.0 original's ROM (stock) and Im facing a new bug, I was using the cellphone and it turned off without my request, now, when I press the Power Button, it does nothing, when a press the combinations with Volume Up or Down, it does nothing. When I plug in the charger's jack, it boot up, but the boot loops. When I press the combination to Restore or Recovery, it shows the image but turns into boot loops again and I really dont know why.
I cant use it normally, without charging, if I do, this is the problem.
Is it soft bricked? I believe yes, but how can I solve this?
I cant remove the battery, it is "sealed".
How can I proceed?
Thx in adv.
Can you get into fastboot mode? If you can, you could try flashing a stock ROM.
What happens when you just plug in the charger without pressing any buttons?
The back of the phone can be easily removed with a pry tool. The black housing covering the motherboard can be removed and the battery disconnected from the motherboard.

Sounds like the power button has gone bad. If you plug it in and go to bootloader, does it still reboot before you can make a selection? This has been a common problem on the N5. Most of the time the only fix is to have the entire switch replaced by LG or local company... Unless you are very handy with a solder.
Same problem here.
For all those that have the same problem, it is the power button
Had the same problem. Solved it by removing the power button and installed "DTSO: Double Tap" that wakes the screen with the volume buttons.
the only problem is that i no longer have the ability to turn it on once the battery dies, other than open the phone and shunt the contacts.
But it works....
I'm hoping someone who knows the behaviour of this phone can help.
I changed the power / volume up/down buttons after taking the phone apart. I followed a rather good guide here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jX4PWIw0f4
After plugging it all together again, I tried to start the phone without the cover on. It started fine, and my stuck volume down button problem (causing safe mode) was fixed.
I then put the phone back together properly. Since doing that, it won't start.
Phone doesn't have SIM or SD card inserted at the moment.
If I unpug the battery and power via the micro USB port, the red LED is faintly on, the phone looks like it's booting with the Sony logo appearing for about a second before all going dark and repeating the process.
Question: is that normal behaviour because battery is missing and phone will refuse to boot without battery?
If I connect the battery, phone will no longer start. Holding down the power button doesn't work. I also tried plugging in the old strip where the volume down wasn't working (but power OK) and no difference.
This would suggest the battery has failed. The outer aluminium foil is broken at the bottom following me taking it out first time - Sony use stupidly sticky stuff to hold it in place and it seems to stick to the aluminium foil far too much causing tears when removed.
But if phone should boot without battery and currently isn't then it isn't (just) the battery.
So can anyone offer and advice on how to proceed? I'd like to avoid spending $500 on a new SIM-free phone if I can!
