Hello
I have a frined with Sensation XE (not rooted, S-On completely stock) ant it was acting weird lately. sometimes freezing, or rebooting and entering infinite loop. Removing battery and putting it back would help for sometime but then the problems started again.
Ultimately, the phone is completely dead. No orange LED whne charger connected, no bootloader, no tuting ON at all, and the screen is always off.
I am wondering if this is a harware problem and motherboard or smth else should be replaced? or can this be software fault and maybe it is possible to fix with unbrick project or smth?
please advice.
PS: the battery is totally fine - check it with my other Sensation phone and it works great...

I am in Japan and there is no official support for Sensation here (it sucks). I got my phone from ebay 5-6 months ago. Sending the phone to HongKong or smth like that would cost as much as buying a used one or maybe even more.
So i decided to go with self-repair way. If this is hardware - i will replace the motherboard myself or whatever is broken myself. I just need to find out where is the problem.
Pleashe help me with identifying it
You could try removing sd card and sim. A problem with these may cause such issues.
Aftwrwards, remove and reconnect the battery, make sure the battery contacts actually make contact, or put some folded piece of paper to hold the battery, if it does not.
Than let the phone rest in charge for some 15 minutes, and try turning it on.

Hello
Thank you for advise but I have tried all of that already. Removed sim and microsd, charged the phone several times even for 1 entire night.
I managed to connect the phone to PC and with a wire-trick it shows QHUSB_DLOAD does this mean the phone is not dead completely?

Thanks Actually I am now trying to follow UNBRICK PROJECT instructions on my Linux Mint installation, but I am getting an erro saying "Device not found Check connections."
BTW, when connected to charger - no orange LED - which means i suppose that phone is not charging?

Hi,
Make sure to connect to PC via usb 2.0 slots only,and no hubs.
Also try different slots,front and back.
I do not know about linux,but do you have all the correct drivers?

I think I do not. Sorry for noob questions - but this si the first time I am dealing with brik - did nto even know I need drivers. WHat drivers do I need and where to get them?
And if you are speaking about usual HTC-sync and ADB drivers to run ADB and Fastboot commands - then yes I have them and they run just fine.

After installing a new rom ,my polaris died ,no lights not recharging , I removed the battery,the SD and the sim card for > 24hrs and still the usb is not recognised and no lights at all and also not recharging any solution????
Hey.
Im reading u have a problem Polaris not booting up or worse not even working. Well i have the same problem and im also looking for a solution.
My device started to play tricks on me, like shutted down when not needed, freezing, and also when freezing i pressed reset button which did nothing but shut the device down completely (not even charging or booting up again). After many hours later it worked again but still had the same problem.
And well... now... now its totally dead, it stayed off for a day and not even charging nor booting.
Come on guys, some one must have had this problem before and maybe u can tell if its fixable or do i really have a f*cking brick on my table. , and also how can i avoid it if im getting myself another device?
I have the same problem with polaries...

Please anybody help me.. Its pain for me. the phone is not opening. What I do now...
Check if your battery is not dead(voltmeter i guess), also what ROM/radio did you tried to install, also did installation completed successfully?
Don't want to make assumptions, but i think it's terminally dead(mobo fried?)
Thanks for your advice...
I checked my battery with voltmeter, it shows ok..
I installed the Salvy.C.83_Megan_v1.4_WWE_Polaris_EzInput_2.1 ROM and it was successfully installed, but after 1 day it is fully not opening, not responding...
What should I do......
Please help..

Could be the nand failing have a look using mtty to see if you have any bad sectors.
Disable usb connections in wmdc or active sync.
Put the phone into bootloader screen.
open mtty Connect mtty to you usb port.
Type info 8 to check for bad sectors.

So what I do....???
I have the same issue, my polaris if connected to usb doesn't light orange, can't go in bootloader anymore and mtty seems to not been able to issue any command to the device.
As you know, is there a way to flash an hard spl via mtty? Or another way to flash it on my "seems bricked" device?
As for info, i was using the same rom as you, but mine was working great!
And now seems dead... my invincible polaris...
Please, anyone help us?

Hi guys
I've had the Sensation for about 3months now, and suddently yesterday it stopped working. It wont charge, no LED's and wont start at all. There have not been any waterdamage, drops or rough use.
I've read a lot concerning similar problems on this forum, but none of the solutions has worked for me.
What I can tell is that I have tried after searching the forums:
- SDK, ADB and try to reboot the device via USB-connection (device not found)
- Win7 (32bit) can't recognise the phone (asking for drivers which are not found in HTC Sync, QHSUSB_DLOAD)
- Trying to enter recovery mode (Volume Down + Power up)
- Charge the battery overnight
- Charge the battery with a plastic-piece covering the two middle pins on the battery (As suggested in a thread)
- Battery out for 1min and then put it back in and start up
Neither of these worked, so are there any other good ideas? Or is it bricked?
Hi guys,
i have exactly the same problem, already have tried all of these solutions, nothing have worked for me... Please help.
PS:sometimes my screen lights up <black totally, but lights up>... when plugged into usb cable or charger... but not now anymore...
I have bought this phone in china, there is S/N but i guess that here in UK i cannot do anything about it since HTC's warranty is not global...

Also keep note of which recovery you are working off of. There have been charging issues with certain recoveries.
Yeah, I read several threads and posts about recovery-issues... Unfortuantly I cant check what version I got myself, as it wont start up at all :/

I would suggest to go to a store that sell's the Sensation and ask if you can test one of their batteries out to see if your phone has either a battery issue or something else. If you are stateside, of course try a tmobile store, but without knowing where you are located, this is a hypothetical at this point.
I know I had an issue with my Nexus1 not booting up from a kernel I had flashed. But I noticed my charging led was flashing three times and then stop. I researched this here on xda and found that it just needed to be put into recovery again somehow. I ended up just plugging the phone into the wall and remove the battery. Try to power it on there and then reinsert the battery and try the power + volume down button. That time it booted for me. But again, this was for my Nexus1 not with this phone.
same happened to me, sent to HTC and had main board replaced, lcd, flex cable etc. the driver the phone looks for is the equip HTC use to jtag... I am not sure if this is a hardware failure or boot corruption...but even though it was s-off via alpha rev it was that damaged they didnt complain... i say hardware failure. the thing is even when i have s-off i didnt change the rom. I have a riff box on order so if this happens again we can surely see if this failure is software or hardware..
Yeah, do what kpjimmy said; go to a store where Sensation's are sold and ask if you could use a battery to test it out to see if it's bricked. It it's not, you'll need a new battery (try getting one for free from HTC, citing warranty. I did it with my battery cover). If it doesn't work, you're mostly likely bricked, unfortunately. Refer to anarchy's post for more info on that side of things
Same problem here yesterday.. can't charge. But phone heat. I just pull out battery, n put back.keep repeated that. Finally can on. U use custom kernal?

Hi guys,
Need some help here
I have a HTC Sensation, I'm using Android Revolution HD 6.6.2, everything was working fine until this morning. My phone made a strange beeeeeeeeep, I couldn't do anything, so I turned it off, and since, no way to turn it on again. I last charged the phone last night, so the battery shouldn't be a problem.
I tried to boot with vol. down and power, not working.
When I plug the charger, the light doesn't turn on.
I really have no idea what to do next. Any tips ?
My main problem is that I bought the phone in Ireland, and I since moved in France, so I can't go back to the place where I bought it to replace it..

Can you see the phone when you plug it to your computer?
Or you could try a new battery
Nop, nothing on the comp when I plug it.
I have a spare battery, same issue.
I just tried to boot without the sim and the sd card, it worked (wtf ?).
Shutted it down, and no power once again.
I'm gonna try with another sim card when my wife will get back home, will keep you informed, thanks for the answer.

I had this problem and what I did in the end was use the Android Debug Bridge. Here are instructions on how to install it:
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-adb-and-how-to-install-it-android/
Then once you've installed it run command prompt (Start>Run>cmd) and type cd/androidsdk/tools (or whatever location you've installed the adb to)
Plug your sensation into your pc with USB and then type adb devices into command prompt. Hopefully it will come up with a code below devices attached.
Then...type adb reboot recovery and hopefully your device will boot into recovery, from which you can relfash a rom or whatever
Hope that helps!

panic! lol I'm not sure - my first guess would be that the battery has somehow died - that would explain why there is no light when you charge it, just the same as if you were to try and charge it without any battery plugged in! If you have a multimeter, try measuring the voltage output from your battery and ensure that the battery is making proper contact with the terminals in the battery compartment

That's bad man it might have corrupted all the partitions especially if bootloader partition got corrupted then your phone is bricked which seems to happen in your case . you got no luck with adb/fastboot?
Edit:
You were able to bootup without sim and sdcard? Then have you tried another sdcard

Hi, I actually just experienced the exact same problem. I actually finished flashing the ROM and everything rebooted..and reinstalled the apps too. While calling on the phone...all of a sudden it made the beep sound. IT rebooted the first time..and I Thought everything was ok. Then I made a call again...and after a minute or so...the long beep came on...and then now it's completely unresponsive...no light when plugged...can't turn on.
Any update or ideas?
Hi everybody, I followed every single steps of the guide to install ICS and ARHD 6.6.3 on my phone, but something went wrong... It hasn't yet booted to the home screen after 1.5 hours it finished to flash the ROM. It's stuck on the white screen with the "htc - quietly brilliant" logo. What can I do? I tried to turn it on by pulling out the SIM and SD cards, but it doesn't solve the problem.

Can you do a restore?
Or go into recovery?
ICSensation 4G
No...it won't turn on...won't do anything with volume down + power...or when plugged in to PC and ran as ADB
A follow-up of my situation..
The day I started the thread, I was finally able to start again my phone, don't ask me how, I have absolutely no clue ! I removed the battery, sd card, sim card, put them back, and so on, for hours, and finally it worked..
BUT.
This morning, same situation. And I can't get it back to power up, once again.
I can't access it through adb, as the phone is totally powered off.
Wondering if it's a bug from Android HD 6.6.2 as newr got the same version and the same problem..
Hmm...so you got it booted up again? So it's not a hardware problem? I don't know if it's the ROM problem..it happened afetr I installed 6.6.2...but mine never did turn back on...no matter what I did....can't connect to ADB...can't turn on...can't charge.
I just sent it back to HTC...hopefully it won't turn on...as if they do..they'll say it's not under warranty cuz it's rooted.
Anyone have problems with 6.6.2? If it's causing it...it should be told as otherwise, others may have problems turning on their phones.
How can we tell if it's hardware vs. software?
I tried a lot of things since yesterday, but this time it's not booting again.. *sigh*
And in France, apparently you can't send it to HTC directly, you have to send it to one company working with them, where you have to pay 20 euros just for the diagnostic, I'm so f*cking happy right now.
Same problem here. Weird noise, line across the screen and dead. Plugging USB into PC comes up with a detection noise but immediately fails to find drivers. Any one had any more luck?
Are you all using the same rom? Maybe the developer of the Rom knows something about it, I would ask. Seems strange that your all using same Rom and same thing is happening to you all. Hopefully it can be fixed! I wish you all the best! Wish I knew of a solution but sadly I do not . Best wishes .

Same issue with mine. Yesterday, 8/20/12, I broke a sim card connector pin and Nexus S wouldn't recognize sim card after a reboot. Rebooted the device again after the warning message: Sim card not detected/found.
Now Nexus S won't boot. Computers (Windows & OSX) can't recognize it's connected and 5 different charges won't show that the battery is charging. Battery still has a charge as I tested it in another Nexus S. When the battery is in, the device heats up. When connected to a power source, the device heats up.
Used Unbrickable resurrector with no success. UR shows: Device not found, No device detected.
Finally, I was running Jelly Bean from OTA update and not rooted. I noticed that in the past week or two the stock Andoird keyboard would cause force closing of apps or exceed processor threshold of 35% even if there was no program running. Google Now was also sucking the battery after the JB update. Turned that battery drain off on the other Nexus. Also, the Android Media process was taking a drain on the processor. Usually running at 40-50%.
Bought this used from CowBoom and hoping the extended warranty will replace or fix the broken sim card connector and unbrick the phone.
Luckily I have an iPhone 4S and a 2 yr old HTC Desire to turn to.
I've read on another thread, perhaps?, that two other users in the past week or so have had this same problem.

Same happened to me. The Unbrickable resurrector also didnt detect the phone. so i made the Unbrickable Hardware Mod (httpxx://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566475) remove the xx from httpxx. now my phone is being detected and the tool is able to load its files. but still the phone is dead, no thing happens and the tool shows no device found after it loads the files. but when i picked GALAXY S from the drop down menu. the tool loads the files and now both the tool and the phone shows download mode with an android shoveling dirt. heimdall now detects the phone but it doesnt work caz its not a GALAXY S. So let us know what happens if u try this mod. cheers
The exact same thing happened to me. Strangely, it's happening with JB roms. And yeah, i told my problem in a very educated way on the ROM topic and they simply deleted the post, how nice.
Anyway, i just sent the phone to the warranty almost three weeks ago, i'm waiting for them to fix it or give me a new one.

i was thinking about buying a new phone such as Galaxy Nexus if my Nexus S can not be repaired or way too expensive to repair...
i had same issue a few days after upgrading to JB JRO03E. i got the main board replaced under warranty. took about 2 and half weeks.
the phone came back with GB installed but OTA'd to ICS then JB JRO03L.
I had the same issue running cm10-0823. Screen froze while sitting idle. Pulled and replaced battery, and phone won't come back.
Looks like cm10/jb is causing some burn-out in circuit board; cpu, memory...?

as i have heard is that new bootloader messes with hummingbird CPU ...
I have exactly the same problem I flashed Codename Android ROM 3.4.1, done some overclocking (only 1200 MHz) and the device crashed. Well, nothing unusual. But I removed the battery, I think it was just when the device was rebooting - I think display turned on, I noticed some flash when the battery was already removed.
I tried to turn on the device, but it's dead. Display doesn't turn on, UnBrickable Resurrector says device not found.
I can send the phone to the warranty, but it's unlocked. Do you think they will find out it's unlocked? Even if the download mod doesn't work etc?
What should I do?
Well, I happened to end up with the same problem. Installed latest cm 10 nightly, started rebooting my phone. The moment I restarted it from CWM I realised that I forgot to flash some mod in CWM so I pulled the battery to go into recovery. Phone bricked, no input at all. Sent my phone on warranty, I hope they won't mind it had unlocked bootloader and cm10 on it ;P
That's just a bit stupid to be honest, pulling the battery while booting why not just wait?

Now I know it's stupid. Do you think they will repair it even though it's cm flashed and unlocked?
i sent mine to repair and they fixed without paying a dime!
Cascabreu, you just made my day Well, I just have to wait now

The mainboard is fried. No way of knowing previous state of your phone. They will just replace the board.

I had the same issue back in August just after I flashed 4.1.1/JRO03E. It just died one day while listening to music. Took about 3 weeks to get the mainboard replaced under warranty. It came back bootloader unlocked and with Gingerbread 2.3.3 installed.

Hi, I have a Desire S, the phone is not booting dead, completely dead, and I connect to the computer displays the information I QHSUSB_DLOAD, can do something about it?
Apparently, the phone itself off

Well,, what do you mean by dead?
Has it passed out by itself?
Have you been doing something to it like flashing- rom? radio, or whatever?
Is it loading the battery (orange light) when you connect it?
Is it stock?, unlocked?,
The information you supply is inadequate

dead I mean, that does not turn on, you can not turn on the recovery mode or anything.
At the charger, nothing shines.
It is the factory, so probably S-ON
As I wrote, acted in the evening, in the morning already dead
When connected to a computer display QHSUSB_DLOAD This is the only sign of life

I'll not lie to you that i know what has happend.
There is a small chance that your usb port got stuck with dirt, there is no connection and the battery is just empty
Or the emmc chip is fried for some reason-and this is a bigger problem,,,
Anyway, if you are not familiar with servicing phones, not rooted, not unlocked or whatever
, and still have warranty
, you can either send it for servicing or wait for an answer from somebody wiser than i am
