Sensation not turning on - HTC Sensation

I've looked every for a solution to this problem and I never could find a similar case or an answer. I am running Viper on my sensation (specs in sig) and heading back home my phone just shutdown. I turned it back on and it stayed on splash screen. So I took out the battery and now it won't turn on. I have 3 other battery's and they're fully charged. Sometimes I can get it to Bootloader, but once I go into recovery it shuts down. Sometimes it just won't even boot. The orange light doesn't even show when I connect it to the charger either with battery is in. Can someone help me get a solution because I don't think I can send this if it still unlocked, rooted, and have a ROM.

Hold the VolDown button then press the Power button. You'll get into the bootloader and just go into the Recovery.

Put a small piece of paper behind the battery in order to make it fit in more tightly; that way we can see whether or not the problem is being caused by a faulty connection to the battery pins. Also, all Sensations don't charge when they are at the htc splash screen nor when they are in the bootloader.

I have Put a small piece of paper behind the battery, but my sensation not boot at all... first i want to install viper ROM, i have try 5 times but it boot-loop, than i install super-wipe, but wrong super-wipe,
htc sensation I can not turn on it at all
i think the boot-loader error when i install wrong super-wipe (i install superwipe for htc wildfire)

using wrong superwipe is the problem ...it might have wiped important partitions and thus bootup failed .... only Jtag is the solution i think ..
you need to go to any local shop who have jtag and try to flash firmware using jtag

Hi,
1.Replace to another fully charged battery and try "boot" the phone.(when charging the battery the led is orange)
If isn't work,
2.Try to wipe everything using superwipe and reinstall the ROM from the beginning,you have to do this procedure with FULLY charged battery and BACKUP(if you have)
You need:
HTC Sensation S-OFF - Guide to S-off, Installing ClockWork, PermRoot, SuperCID & Flashing
ClockworkMod Recovery 4.0.1.4 from AlphaRev or 5.0.1.0 from ROM Manager
How to flash:
Don't use ROM Manager! Flash ROM following the steps below:
Download ROM and place it on your SD card
Download "Super Wipe" script & place it on your SD card (optionally if coming from earlier version of my ROM, obligatory if coming from stock or other custom ROM)
Boot your phone in recovery mode (vol down + power)
In main menu, select "install zip from sdcard"
Select "choose zip from sdcard" and browse to the location of "Super Wipe" script
Once again select "choose zip from sdcard" and browse to the location of Android Revolution ROM
After flashing process is complete, reboot the device
MAKING THIS PROCEDURE FOR YOUR RESPONSIBILITY ONLY!

Well it's not bricked if you can get into hboot. Have you tried downloading the fastboot zip for flashing the latest clockwork recovery? Then you can flash that through hboot and see if it'll boot into recovery. Worst case scenario if nothing else works you might have to flash an RUU and go back to stock and redo everything. But I really don't think your phone is bricked because it does turn on and successfully boots to hboot.
Try to install all required components from the beginning,be carefully and patient with the procedure.

Hi,
Are you s-off?
What ROM?
What radio?
Etc. etc,
MOAR information,please
I used Android Revolution HD I fixed that thanks god!!! But now another problem starts.. i turn on the phone and restarts over and over after the green sign. I can't access recovery also. I tried to install a recovery putting this file: PG58IMG in to Memory card and then install but no success it does the same I can't access recovery at all. When i try to access it my phone restarts the same when i try to turn it on. If someone one know what to do please tell me...thank you i would be grateful if you can help me! I am S-Off yes
For Revolution HD there are very critical pre-requisites before flashing ROM:
-Latest and recommended firmware package (Differs for each version pls check)
-Super wipe script
-4ext
Did you do all before flashing ROM?
I think i did not. I've just rooted and after installed this custom ROM and it worked for 3 days until today. What i want to do is to access Recovery so i can swipe everything and Install a new ROM. but every time i try to access my phone restarts
I had a problem similar not long ago. My phone would do constant restart when trying to boot up and I had a firmware file on my sd card so it wouldn't go into recovery (4ext touch). So I removed the sd card and was able to go into recovery, tho nothing showed up, I inserted my sim card back in and THANKFULLY it recognized it and I could fix my problem. Not sure if doing this will help with your problem but give it a shot.
Try to flash 4ext:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377759
trying right now mates... let's see !!!
If not works, then try to install original RUU and startover.
To install original RUU:
- Just connect your phone to Windows (Drivers must be installed before, to do that just install HTC sync, it will also install some other stuff (drivers), uninstall JUST HTC Sync not the other stuff)
- Run RUU.exe
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
I am telling you that my phone doesn't turn on at all... i mean i can't go to menu etc..
I am downloading this : RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.24.401.1_Radio_10.39.9007.00P_10.11.9007.09_M2_release_190934_signed.exe at the moment ! is this good?!
You may guess best one to choose by your operator and country.
I have tried several ones till get the correct one since i do not remember the original one
I've just installed that my friend but same problem
Did you installed HTC Sync?
Does Windows recognized your phone succesfully before install?
Does RUU installed properly? It should reboot several times while installing.
Would you please describe problem in some more detail? When you push power button what happens? Did you see anything on screen? When you push volumedown and power together, what happens? What is on the screen?
Did you manage to fix ur problem mate.

If you flashed the radio file, you need to take that off your sd card otherwise it will just keep updating the radio or trying to and you can't get into recovery. Pull card and delete that file you placed there. Then you can boot into bootloader and get to recovery. if you have arhd rom, once you boot into the rom, go to settings., power and uncheck fastboot.

If you are trying to get an arhd rom loaded I suggest you come over to the arhd dev thread and ask. You will get a solution. Kernels are in the rom so I'm not sure what you are seeing. Start with what shows at the top of your bootloader screen. Locked unlock, radio, hboot etc. that will help.

You could factory reset it:
From the manual:
If you can’t turn HTC Sensation 4G on or access settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the hardware buttons on HTC Sensation 4G.
1. Remove the battery, wait for a few seconds, then reinsert the battery.
2. Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then briefly press the POWER button.
3. Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the VOLUME DOWN button.
4. Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER button."

It was stated that he can't access the bootloader, which is what is required for the "FACTORY RESET"...
There are a number of people reporting this issue. I've even experienced the issue after the device powered down due to a drained battery. Luckily I have a stand alone charger. I put the battery on the charger for about 15 minutes, put it back in the device and it was able to boot, charge, connect usb etc...
I tried for 20 minutes to get any response from the device before trying the charger.
No charging LED isn't a good sign.
There seem to be more and more people reporting with this problem these last few weeks. IT happened with mine....it was not battery drained cuz it went dead when battery was 100% charged. I've been trying to get input as to whether this is related to ROM or firmware we're flashing....but no one seem to know.
Nothing will work...ADB...battery out...etc...I've sent my phone back to HTC...waiting to see what happens.
There are at least 3-4 different post with the same problem the past few weeks.

Well what i did was that i had a brand new sensation, i got it s-offed, rooted, cwm, superCID. all that done following the guide here on XDA. i wanted to have the new elegancia ICS rom which required the 3.32 firmware with the 4ext recovery. I got the 4ext flashed and then flashed the 3.32 firmware which caused a bootloop. then i panicked and tried to put it back to stock. not realizing that it was prolly bootlooping due the stock rom not being compatible with that firmware (not positive if that caused the bootloop. just a guess) it bricked after trying to put it back to stock. nothing responds. computer doesnt recognize it. new battery doesnt to anything. no charging led. looking back on what i did. I was still able to get into the 4ext recovery when it was bootlooping. If i flashed a compatible rom while it was doing that would it have fixed the issue. can anyone confirm if the bootloop was caused due the the stock TMOUSA rom not being compatible with 3.32? Tmobile is going to send me a brand new one. I'd like that rom but dont wanna repeat the same mistake lol
Thanks

WEll..if your phone lights up or have some response.maybe you can still do something by connecting to computer. Mine was completely unresponsive...and can't be detected on computer!
Maybe it's an overclock issue? I've read on different threads that there may be a motherboard issue. The sensation is known for overheating. Maybe it's frying the motherboard.
What frequency were you guys running and was your phones randomly shutting down before it became unresponsive?
i think we guyz got the same problem :S its just turned off with a constant beep

[Q] Sensation stopped working completly

First off, i'm not bad with computers, but apparently not so great either.
Also tried searching, but I couldn't find it.
Then my question.
I tried to unroot my phone and followed this guide of the unlocker.
downloaded a RUU (after a lot of searching for mirrors) and I think it didn't work properly.
Either way, I continued with the guide doing the following in the cmd on windows
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
fastboot reboot-bootloader
now, my phone doesn't do anything anymore. Doesn't charge (or atleast the LED does not turn on) can't turn the phone on, nothing. I checked the SD card and that is still all in tact.
Is there any way to let my phone work again?
I would really appreciate the help!
Phone specifications
HTC Sensation (3g)
Vodafone NL Carrier.
If you remove the sd card and the battery, than after some seconds re enter just the battery and try to turn it on, does the htc logo come up? Does the screen turn on?

So battery taken out and let sit for a few seconds and still nothing..sounds disturbing. try putting the battery back in and press the power button and the volume down together at the same time for a few seconds.. anything?
I"m having the same issue with mine. S-Off, root and CID all went perfect. Went into clockwork, installed/ran the superwipe program, flashed the AHDRev ROM successfuly, then installed the 'bricked' kernel. Also went successfully.
Then popped battery, then nothing. LED flashes to indicate charging, but phone refuses to boot. Popped battery up to 10 minutes, also tried whilst on charger
Nothing in fastboot cmd prompt either

Did you also use clockworkmod or 4ext?
I wonder if that's the pattern

Believe it or not but batteries dying or defective can result in the same issues I'm seeing. My sensation had to have a battery replacement before. Led indicator stays orange and black screen occurs. I don't know if that's what the problem is and it can be a handful of different things. Sorry to hear about your phones. Hope you get it up and running again

My Sensation is dead, bricked, won't charge or turn on

I tried flashing my unlocked Orange Sensation and now it does not show any sign of life: I can't turn it on, no light from the LED indicator when charging it.
I removed the battery several time and put it back then tried power it on without any luck, here what I did before:
I followed this tutorial and S-OFF,installed ClockworkMod Recovery, and rooted it all successfully.
After that I tried flashing if using Sensation_3.32.401.5_deodexed from this thread, but the phone kept restarting showing HTC logo screen.
Then I read that I need to super-cid my phone since it was from Orange. I did that using Auto Super-Cid Script By Pavelol v3, again the phone kept restarting showing HTC logo screen.
Finally, I successfully installed Firmware from 3.32.401.x & 3.32.401.10x RUU in this thread, then reboot, BAM phone is dead!
I don't know what I did wrong, but it should not kill my phone!
I looked at previous threads but there is no clear cause or solution.
Help me pleeeeez

Well, you certainly bricked your phone by installing the ROM before upgrading the firmware or superCID your phone..
First of all, there's no need to superCID just because you are on Orange, you could have downloaded the suitable firmware from mike's thread. Then again you should have done it before trying to install the ROM. That's what you probably have done wrong.
Now as per the solution, refer to the following threads..I guess they will help you

You don't need to be able to fully turn your phone on in order to access the recovery and bootloader. Charge the phone for a while, even if no LED is showing. Reflash the 3.32 firmware if you can access the bootloader. Flash VI through recovery. Observe.

I charged the phone with no LED indicating its being charged, pressed the power button and nothing happened. The phone can't be powered at all.
I think you need to take it to repair shop, to un-break it they need to replace a part on your htc using JTAG.
This will cost you alot of money.

Remove battery, replace battery, hold volume - and press power, this is how you enter bootloader. Does this work?

Already did that
I've already removed the battery and replaced it many times without any luck.
Try to take to a local HTC repair center. If You have any kind of proof of purchase, they have to repair it under warranty according to the IMEI no.
I succesfully got my phone back in this way. Just don't tell them what You did, only that it won't turn on.
Good luck!
I will take it to HTC repair center, unfortunately I lost its papers so I'll have to pay for the repair
I had the same problem...phone won't turn on and unresponsive. Not sure if it's ROM related....it happened after I installed the new revolution ROM...but everything seem to go fine and was able to boot to the new ROM...then when using for call it had a long beep tone and just turned off and never turned on again.
So I am waiting for repair from HTC as well...hopefully they will replace it as well. Do you think yours is a hardware problem? I am glad they replaced yours even it was rooted.. I am hoping they can't turn on and had no choice and way to know it was roooted!

Indeed! Same hapened to me. It was mainboard failure. They couldn't turn it on.
Bad side it has latest stock rom with HBOOT 1.27.0000, and still no way to unlock bootloader, rooting and S-OFF.
HTC repair center says that the motherboard need to be changed and it will cost me about 235$! I found out while searching that many experience this problem.
I tried to find a replacement but almost all my search result is about the upper PCB with motherboard flex cable which is leftover of people buying motherboards.
HTC has problems with motherboards with several models also.
I hate HTC, I will not buy any HTC again.
try contact your dealer, and ask if he can find the tickets?
Hey man, try jumpstarting your phone by taking out the battery and plugging it in the wall, try turning it on while it is directly connected?
This is a know issue. You have hard bricked your device. I did it too. If you have warranty, there is no way HTC can detect a modified device and they will replace the motherboard for you like they did for me, free of charge. If you don't have warranty thankfully there is now a relatively simple way to fix this:
Just follow this guide:

Note: This will fix only devices which were bricked by turning S ON. And bricks caused by a damaged hboot via interrupted OTA update/RUU flash on a S-ON device. Any devices bricked with other ways are currently *not* supported. We are working on it

My case is that I've installed a ROM before updating the firmware, anyway I have tried it and it won't work with me.
Anybody can explain this to me?
I don't know how flashing a ROM before upgrading the firmware can damage my motherboard ! Anybody can explain this to me?
I did many crazy things with Samsung and Huawei and those never hurt the hardware
