[Q] Htc Sensation Not getting charged - HTC Sensation

any idea why HTC Sensation isnt getting charged.. As soon as i connect it to the charger the part below the memory and sim card get heated so much that u cant even touch it..And the phone is restarting on its own.The following msg that htc showed me "Ur phone is using more current than the supplied curried".Showed it to the local technician he say the board is fine and he cant repair it.. There are no authorized service centre in Mumbai.The nearest one is 200 km away.what should i do?
Custom Rom. ICS Rom.
No previous problem.First problem.

It sounds like you're plugging the phone into your computer to charge? Assuming the problem is not the cable itself shorting, it sounds like something with the phone itself. If you aren't confident in being able to take it apart and fix it yourself, and getting it serviced is not feasible, your best bet would be getting another battery and external charger. This way, you'd be swapping batteries and charging externally. Not sure if there's anything available to you locally...

No not charging with my computer. Its the normal htc charger and its original battery. The same battery work fine on my other sensation phone without any issue...I used an anker battery fully charged the phone started and the battery lvl started falling, within 5 mins the battery came down to red level and phone got really heated at the place below the sdcard and memory card location and even the screen side..The technician say that 90% when this problem occur its not possible to repair it..!!! i also tried using other battery and other charger but same things happen with it.

do you have custom kernel?
are you overclocked?
try to change kernel or underclock the cpu

Change the battery. If that doesn't help, the port is damaged.

Battery changed but still same msg... Port damaged? how to repair that?
Just uploaded image crc is it helpful?

I mean physically damaged. Just take a look inside where you would plug the cable. If anything looks amiss, its probably the cause of your charging trouble. You have two options, find a new logic boars, or find someone who will micro solder a new port on for you. EBay has more than one person who will provide that service.

Okay...?
The majority of the people here have rooted.
It won't help. I have deleted the batterystats on mine phone more than 20 times in the last 3 days and there is no change nor hope!
Let me rephrase by saying your ROOTED phones battery stats might be lying to you.
And for the guy who tried it three times and failed. I don't think you took the time for fully discharging the phone. That's right I'm calling BS.
Anyway got to go my battery just dropped 30%
Just wanted to let you guys know that this is completely true in my case. The other night around 2am I went to sleep with the battery around 68%. When I woke up 4hours later for work my phone was turned off. I then plugged it in and my battery was at 0%.
I was on the perfect storm Rom. I then switched to das bamf. Still happens. Tried bump charging and 0-100 charging and its helped but when I reboot the phone the battery shows about 7% less then where it was.

I think that is thy the stock battery icons don't show an exact %, b/c they haven't been able to make it work right. Don't worry though i believe that the devs will get it before HTC.
Ok my battery was just now at 50%. I restarted and now showing 41%. I don't know what's going on.

As I said, you can charge and discharge all day long, it won't help!
Thank you for reposting this. So sick and tired of people complaining about dropping 10% in a few minutes after a full charge.

I think this is a glitch. It drops like crazy after restart but then stays there until it "catches up" I guess.

So far,I have only rooted my phone, not a custom rom. I either have a crappy battery life, which seems better when I shut 4g down, or there is a glitch on the metering. My .02 worth.

[Q] Battery totally depleted (in minutes?) while being on charge... WTF?

I had numerous issues with this damn phone since Videotron changed my beloved HTC Glacier (just because the headphone jack was broken) to this P999 **** (they brand it Optimus 2X here).
I saw the phone reboot by itself, becoming slower than a G1 on ICS, refusing to connect to any wifi (awesome for someone without data plan) and refusing to boot after installing ROMs.
But that one take the cake. This morning the phone battery went to 0 in a matter of minutes while it was plugged into the wall. Don't ask me what happened, I was sleeping and when I woke up, I had to boot the phone.

Of all issues I had with this phone, battery wasn't one until that.
So if anyone as a theory, I would be glad to know it.
- Thanks!
Phone details:
LG-P999 (Refurb device, acquired the 9th April 2012)
Lexar 16GB Class 10 SD-Card (never used the on-board storage)
ROM: SINGH-UI (MIUI 2.3.30)
Android 2.3.7
Baseband May 18 2011
Kernel 2.6.32.51-CM7-Faux123-048 (Stock clk/vt?)
(I know the ROM isn't the latest one, but as I said, the phone seems to refuse to boot any GB roms I install lately but I was able to use a Nandroid)
I've had similar issues with charging. Mine would drain while plugged in with only the screen on. Terrible. It would get super hot too.
It's possible the battery is going bad or a glitch in the phone making it thinking it was at a higher % than it was. I would try discharging it completely then using an external charger (or a new battery, $10 on amazon) to charge it
If you are willing try this one and see if it fixes the issue. Please post results.

Damn man sucks to hear about the horrible experience you're having with the G2x. Try running the latest nullifier before flashing a new ROM.
Also, download the ROM directly to your phone.

Use a different charger/USB cord?

Help: phone shutting down continuously

Hi everyone,
for the last two months I've experienced a serious problem with my sensation; the phone shuts down inmediatly withouth any fixed reason, sometimes happens when I unlock the screen, others when taking a picture, also when playing music, etc. Then from one shut down to the next boot the battery level change drasticaly, from 60% -> 20% , then in a while another shut down happens and the battery comes back to 50%, I honestly don't understand. The shuts down always appear with a battery level <60%
This behaviour happened to me with ViperS 1.6.0-2 , CM10 and now again with Hypernonsense. I have two batteries, the official one and Anker, also happened with both batteries.
Here is a logcat, hope someone could give me a hint, honestly I cannot trust in going out with it anymore.
Thanks!
PS: Maybe the most interesting part of the logcat is till 2:00 am

Even i had the same problem before my phone went crazy.. doesnt charge and gets overheated.
I have the EXACT same problem. Or had, i tried the trick of making the battery tighter and so far (for more than 2 weeks) i haven't been getting reboots on CM10. Used a piece of paper .

Seriously? so just putting a piece of paper in the upper side or how?
Had the same problem with my old HTC Desire, lately the batteries started to drain very fast. I don't know what exactly causes this problem of shutdown, but it became me a phone killer.

Hi,
Try charging differently.
If you are using a wall charger,then,try using the PC/laptop to charge.
Or vice versa.

OK thanks i will give it a try
Tell us if it helped.
You can also calibrate the battery turning it off, charging it to 100 then booting into recovery and deleting the battery info (option under the advanced menu) and then booting and going through the entire charge.
AW: Battery charging issue..!!
My battery is full loaded by 4215 mV - i had also wrong readings for% and i was on CWM Touch Recovery. I flashed TWRP recovery and the readings and load is ok.

Is the cable loose in the socket of your phone?
try a different cable
although i never had any trouble with the official opo cable i did find out that certain cables don't let the phone charge very fast, even if you use the right charger
you can also always start an RMA request to get a new cable and/or charger if you are shure the problem sits there
I'm having a similar issue i get the feeling that it is potentially an app issue, however I haven't seen any thing in my battery stat reports so far. I plan to monitor it a little more closely this week to see if i catch any thing suspicious.
Turn your phone off and charge it that way, its deffo gonna be quicker but see if its much quicker. if so you have a dodgy app mate

I agree with this approach. In my case it seems to be app related, and from what i observed The prime contributor to the change in charge discharge rate is Spotify for my setup.
