Volume UP doesn't work - HTC Sensation

So I had this problem and as my phone is off warranty and as I have some knowledge, I noticed that the volume flex cable was a bit damaged. I bought one from parts4repair, replaced but the problem still exists. So if it's not the volume buttons what may it be?
Yes I did search the forums for this and didn't find anything similar to my problem
Hope you guys can help me..

HOX Volume issues

I have noticed that my volume has been dropping every once and while... this is a new issue so I am not sure why... my phone is completely stock... should I warranty it out?
If everything is stock then yeah, try looking into the warranty.
Iam having the same problem with mine ever since I updated mine. It seems like out of know where the volume will just drop for my ringer and the messaging tone. The only thing I can do to get it back to normal is to restart my phone. This actually happens a couple times a day.
Help Please!

I emailed HTC phone repair department but no response as of yet. Since my One X is over its 30 days with At&t I guess this is my only option.

Well after several emails between HTC warranty and being on the phone with them, they would not send me a new One X due to the problems with the volume and text message sizes being software issues. So I figuered I would give ole At&t a try and after being on the phone for about 1 1/2 I got them to send me a replacement One X. I got it and so for so good. I'm not having any of the problems I was before. As I said above the HTC person (DANTY) did happen to say they are working on another release for the text message size always getting getting smaller & also the volume problem. Who knows maybe Gellybean??

Well the new One X has the same problems as the old. The volume goes really low were you can't hear it and the text size get small as previous unit.

I've been having the same issue with the volume on my One X. Hoping a software update will fix this problem.

I started a thread for the same problem. Obviously if we all are having problems with the volume, it must be a software issue. I did not want to take a chance of a replacement and have more issues other than volume. I will wait and see. In the mean time a restart fixes it..

S-Off breaking Vibration?

Hey Guys, I finally got my Sensation back from repair, of course its completely stock now. I sent it to repair because Vibration didn't worked anymore. I thought it could be possibly got cracked by myself applying s-off with junoptobear (i don't have any idea if its correctly written). Do you have any experience with that?

Edit: My Sensation is a Vodafone Germany branded Device with ICS (4.0.3)
different roms have different settings for the vibration feedback, but if your on stock then maybe your phone is still broken? or it works fine now? also make sure haptic / vibrate feedback in settings is checked.
I think you got me wrong, it got repaired and its working now but I don't know how it broke. There are 2 reasons I could think of why vibration broke, the first one is that datrepair (german HTC repair partner) ****ed up the vibration while repairing the cracked screen on my device before it was rooted or myself applying s-off. I don't know if it worked before because I didn't really used the phone before.

I suspect it was the screen repair that caused the issue. I recently went through juopunutbear to S-OFF my replacement/replacement phone. I can't see how that process would have screwed it up.
No. S-off did not break your vibration.

Vibration and haptic feedback is coded in kernel afaik.. And soff process don't touch that.. In fact soff only modifies bootloader and some flags to get permanent soff

I thought it could've broken the hardware (the wire-trick). I did it like described on one of the pins and the sd casing (I'd say I did nothing wrong because it was s-off after that). So my exact question should be: Could the wire trick possibly damage the vibration motor? I'm sorry that I was not that precise.

the wire trick technically does grounding on that pin ..which takes the phone to download mode for some time after first tap and then back to normal with the next tap..thats all ..i dont see any way that can dmage the vibration motor ...and afaik i havent seen any facing this issue after SOFF
Thats what I wanted to know, thank you, I'll s-off my device again with no fear.

I can confirm 100% that after screen change motor stop work in HTC Sensation. Maybe different part revision, wich i doubt is the case cuz replacement part is working fine and picture is perfect.
What is funny, i try fix this vibration problem after screen change for a few days now, replaced with new on PCB at the end just to see that it isnt workin again
By accident, when i got call i drop phone on table, maby 5cm height drop, and vibration start working for few sec then stop again, and it always go on if i hit phone at time when it should be working.
Still havent found solution to this.

This is an ongoing issue with the one x. My first 1 did the same thing but didn't start until 3 weeks of owning it. I got rid of it for another 1. So far it's been 2 weeks and not a problem with this 1 yet. I think it's a software issue though. I have the AT&T ONE X

Anyone have a very SOFT power button that doesn't stick out

My power button doesn't stick out very much at all. It used to be a nice clicky button but now the slightest touch will turn the screen on and sometimes causes the phone to reboot from it holding itself down.
Anyone have the same issue who fixed it and is willing to shed some light?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Only way to fix it is to exchange it for another one. I'm on my 5th phone. Its annoying as hell.
I'm rooted. Will HTC still exchange it?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I have the same issue. I'd prefer not to deal with exchanging it so I'm hoping that when Sweep2wake comes to the latest rohan kernel I can substitute that for the power button.

Volume rocker problem

When I press the volume up or down, it presses them together.
Just like in this video:

Couldn't find how to fix this, solution anyone ?
To be honest, that sounds like a hardware problem.
But you could try removing the back cover and *GENTLY* press each of the buttons on the phone itself.
If that works you cover buttons got messed up.
Otherwise it's probably (but not 100%) a hardware problem.

probably hardware problem. annoying one.
Sorry to hear that.
It is an annoyance as you said, but these buttons are not a must, different apps, roms and mods can change the volume for you.
