Interesting. I just got a brand new one and it has this same problem!!!!
I'll have to get it swapped then, shame as apart from this, there are no problems

I saw this case yesterday on a demo unit, both cameras had the problem. Had some pictures on the phone - older ones were OK, newer ones were with lines.

I had this issue happen to me this weekend. Weird green and red lines. You could even tell in the 2 pictures I took with the camera. Not as prominent as when I took the picture, but I can still see some areas of discoloration
Currently the lines are gone. I haven't installed or uninstalled any apps so I don't think it was anything to do with something that's incompatible.
Not sure if I should get it replaced or not.

I had the problem too...i took pics though and they weren't on the pics after viewing in the gallery. I did a reboot with a battery pull and it went away. Only happened to me once.

I did a thread about this issue, but got no feedback on it. Any thoughts?
Here is a thread of mine with embedded videos: http://androidforums.com/2830694-post1.html

Same here. At first green lines did not show on picture, then they did. I was able to reboot the phone by Long pressing the power button and the problem went away. Not only that, but the camera looked so much better. (seemed much clearer.) I also noticed some videos streaming from the web also had green lines. Can't say its related yet.

I just noticed I had this issue today and found this thread. I tried just a shut down and then started the phone again, that did not help. I shut down, pulled the battery, put it back and started up again, problem solved.
Someone else has also made a video:
Since the issue has gone away and seems to be fine now, I'm not going through getting a replacement. If it occurs again, I'll just do a battery pull to fix it again. It seems the fix holds for some time, although I don't know how long.

I called HTC to get a ticket on file. The guy I spoke with said even an HTC employee in his work area had the same issue once. A battery pull fixed it and they have not had the issue since.
They might get back to me for more information, but today I had to give them phone number, e-mail and IMEI.
They said they're investigating.

I had the same issue with mine the day after I got it. I turned off the phone pulled battery held down volume - and power and selected factory reset. Have had no problems since then. Sorry if someone already mentioned this solution but I'm at work and didn't get to read everything every one posted just trying to help

Your "solution" goes a bit too far. There's no need to do a factory reset and lose all data/settings. Just shut down, pull the battery, put the battery back in, turn it on. Problem solved.

Just pulling the battery didn't work for me so I did the reset. Just trying to help

I just purchase mine on Sunday from Telstra store $792 outright, working fine Sunday night, then Monday morning started getting corrupted lines on Telstra News and Sports. On Monday afternoon went to use camera out on site, and camera had all green lines on screen, took 3 pics and they have the lines as well.
Tues morning take phone and whole kit back to Telstra store where I purchase less than 48hrs ago. Asking for a replacement, they advised they cannot without sending it to repair to check on water ingress !! WTF ! My new phone has not been anywhere near water. All I asked for is a replacement after parting with almost $800, now Im left to wait for Telstra to send away for 7 business days to then decide if I'm entitled to a replacement ??
It appears from all over the net the current fix is to only remove the battery and re fit . After me removing my sim card and memory card, my green lines had disappeared however the shop employee did get to see the fault.
Dam why should I have to wait ! They have $800 of my money and I don't have what I paid for !
Come on Telstra.
GASM

This happened to me. Its just software. Mine did it for a day when I first got it but then disappeared and I haven't seen it happen since.

My friend has the same problem, Except when he restarts the lines go away but they come back after 2 days or so. It's really bothering him. The other thing is he doesn't want to send it to HTC as it will take forever to get back.

Dead Desire S - Any help?

Hi All,
My Desire S decided to die today for no apparent reason:
I had been browsing the internet before jumping in my car and switching on the bluetooth. I had been driving for about 10 mins when I got a call through on my cars bluetooth system, about 3 mins in to the call the caller disappeared even though the car said it was still connected.
I pulled over to check the phone and found it was frozen on the call screen. So I disconnected the battery and powered it up, but it could only get the the HTC splash and sound before the screen turned black and the unit became unresponsive.
A few more tries gave the same issue, so i decided to boot it into recovery to do a full wipe, this completed successfully, but the phone was still doing the same thing.
After removing the battery again the phone will now not turn on at all and does not respond to the charger (no led). I've tested another battery, but still no luck, and tried the bat from my DS in my sisters DS and it works fine.
So my phone is completely dead it seems. I should probably send it off to HTC for a repair, but the problem is that the phone is S-OFF and i have no way of getting it S-ON while it's bricked.
Can anybody suggest anything?
I'm not having much luck with HTC as my mozart is at the repair centre as we speak with a bootloader issue... I might have to choose another manufacturer in future
PS: It was S-OFF but running stock software

there is not much to say...try to remove battery and wait for a while...if issue still persist htc service is only hope

Thanks, i'll leave it overnight and see how it looks in the morning. Luckily i have an optimus one spare that has always served me well... It just does not come close to my DS.

I've just had a development!
When i plug it into my windows 7 pc it recognises it as a device "QHSUSB_DLOAD" but fails to install a driver for it.
Can anybody elaborate on what this is?
Thanks!

Afraid this is not good news...you'll need to reign the device and claim under warranty, I wouldn't worry of you made it soff they probably won't be able to tell, read the recent posts on the ext4 recovery thread as same thing happened to someone else
Sorry

Ok thanks for letting me know. I must remember not to customize my HTC's in future...

Is not customize`s fault is yours because you removed the battery when it was still working (freeze yes but chip is still working) :| How ben_pyett said you must send it to htc... there are similar posts around here and all removed the battery > htc service ...sry mate

Do you think the DS should always be turned off when changing the battery?

If you don't intend to buy new one, yea, it should be

Shame the manual doesn't say so then!

Well i've got it booked in for repair.
Has anybody here had many dealings with HTC Repair, or Regenersis (the UK repairer)?
The guy I spoke to over email (i got fed up of waiting on the phone) about my Desire S was a complete retard. He sent me the same email 3 times in reply to me telling me to restore factory settings... Each time I told him it was not possible as the phone would not switch on...
He then told me that UPS could not pick up my phone for at least 2 weeks, this is despite the fact that I sent my Mozart in for repair last week and was told at least 48 hours. So I would have to find my own way to post or courier it.
Then he books the phone in and sends me the 'Tick Sheet' with the phone information and problem description and in the problem description box he wrote "HELLO"??? WTF? What sort of jokers are these?
At least the woman I spoke to about my Mozart was helpful, she actually gave a meaningful response to my questions, but even she got the problem description wrong, writing just "Reboot Cycle" which is way to vague considering the problem it actually had.

HTC Sensation Bricked? Suddenly can't turn on anymore..

Hi guys,
I've run into some problems, I installed Android Revolution HD 6.5 two days ago. Everything worked like a charm, now I shutted down my phone to go in recovery, sadly enough my phone won't reboot, does not charge nor does it respond to my desperate pushes on the power button. Anyone experienced anything like this?
Worth mentioning also is that the battery was 80+% charged.. So it would seem strange to me that this would anything to do with eventual dead battery.
Just to be clear: hadn't installed anything, nothing less, nothing more.
If I could just get acces to bootloader through usb or anything like this.
I fear that there is someting seriously wrong here?
What are you guys thinking? Any possible solutions?

Hi,
The same thing more or less happened to me.
My phone went dead one night and wouldnt turn on, charge or connect with the PC. I had already arranged a repair with HTC for another issue and so I sent it off to them and a few days later I now have it back and it is working fine so far.
They replaced the mainboard and a few other bits and pieces all under warranty.
I hope you get your phone fixed and sorted asap.

Hi,
Is there any chance the battery pins could be damaged or bent?
Is there any way for you to get hold of another battery(from a shop or friend) and try that?

I will test the battery in the laboratory tomorrow.. I've read you should get a minimum of 3.6V or something like that? Curious to see what has caused this problem. Do you think htc would see I flashed a custom rom on it if I send it to repair?

Hi,
That is why i suggest a different battery.
If they can switch it on,they will see the s-off.
If they cannot,it does not matter.

They don't use a JTAG unit or anything like that to see what has went wrong than I presume? Well, first thing I'll do is test it right away at the laboratory. I will post the result in the evening.

My sensation was rooted and had a custom ROM on, but I was preparing to send the phone back in when it got bricked. I had managed to install stock rom and do S-on but the phone had an unlocked bootloader using HTC dev website, so I was worried they wouldnt do the repair.
As it happens they did all the work under warranty and didnt say/ mention having unlocked bootloader. It has come back locked though.

Was anybody able to find a fix for this?
My sensation 4g has basically the same problem. After rooting and installing ICS it worked fine for a few days then it ceased booting or responding to a charger (no LED response). I was able to turn on the phone again by letting it sit for a while but no luck lately. I'm wondering if my phone is bricked?
When I press the power button the screen stays black with lights on (no LED).
I can't get into bootloader and the phone is not detected by ADB, I tried the unbricking project thread by Dexter, however my phone is not detected by linux. On windows, i did get it to detect as qhsusb_dload.
Any thoughts would be helpful!
Thanks

If your getting QHSUSB DLOAD I'm so sorry to tell you as I believe your device is HARD BRICKED. You can try jtag. If you search there are several companies who will jtag. I'm wishing you the best and I'm sorry about your device.

I had to return my HTC Sensation to the repair center. Apparently the motherboard just fried. I got a new motherboard and just S-OFFed the phone again. Very weird problem though. As has been said in this post earlier, if they can't turn on the device they won't see it is S-OFFed and your warranty will apply.

Phone screen turns on randomly

Is there any reason why this would happen?

It didn't happen to my device until I upgraded to 4.0.4 Android and HTC Sense 4.1 (Spanish Orange network HTC One S version 2.38.75.4).
When it switch on while on a pocket it is very annoying as the phone "tries" to make an emergency call.

Faulty power button?

Only detected after a firmware update? I don't think so.

I was flashing the new Viper on my nieces phone and didn't quite get everything set up the way she likes it before she had to go home so I had to restore her nandroid of Viper ICS and now she is texting me telling me she is having this issue. Can anyone tell me if they ever had this issue and resolved it and if so i guess i might resolve it when i see her next weekend by reflashing the ROM? Or is it a serious issue or maybe one she can resolve? thanks for any info pertaining to this, my niece is quite picky and i am sure any of us crackflashers here know what it is like when you promise a woman the best for her phone then screw it up for her, never hear the end of it! lol. thanks for any help!

All i can really think of is that in the viper rom you have the option under tweaks to let the screen turn on when a message arrives. Mine used to do the same thing every once in a while but it was somehow connected to my data connectivity jumping all over the place so i re-flashed and wiped caches which did the trick.
Hope you get the problem resolved for your nieces sake!

I'm having the same issue with my Evo LTE

The same problem with SGS2 / ICS 4.0.3. Any idea how to fix that please ? It is VERY annoying, cuz it drains my battery !!!

If there are still people with this kind of issue,
I would recommend to check for "wakelock" usage.
As third-party apps can use "wakelock" to turn on the screen, there might be some buggy app which is using the feature improperly.
I had the same case before, turned out that "Naver Mail" app was using Screen wakelock to turn the screen on randomly.
As a solution, there is an app in Google Play called "Wakelock detector" which has a feature to show statistics of Screen wakelocks.
GooD luck

Random Screen On caused by faulty power adapter
I changed my power adapter for charging, and the problem went away immediately. I assume it was the result of either drawing too much power, or not enough to charge the phone. Anyway, there you go. Hope it helps! :silly:
