Hi,
Im the proud owner of a HTC Sensation, bought it quite cheap and for what its done its awesome.
Got my bootloader unlocked by HTC, and rooted, nothing else.
It has been working for almost 4 months like that! without any problems.
Today however i am pissed....
I was using Gmail App with Winamp playing, and when i tried to leave Gmail app the phone crashed, couldnt do anything but music kept going...
had to remove battery!
everything started good again, and i was playing music and using dolphin browser....this time i got an message that Gmail crashed.....and phone crashed after again. this time music stopped playing and only music noise continued played....only the same tone...
now phone is dead...had it without battery, SIM card and SD card for about 20 minutes, nothing, recharged it for about 2 hours...nothing, cant turn it on....POWER+ Volume up or volume down does nothing as well....if i connect to usb i get nothing detected...
anyone has some trick?...
probably will get away with warranty...will see....
Try another battery and charger first. A software problem, crash can not lead to hardware failure

Hi
Did you removed the batter before you pressed and hold volume down + power button
Remove and reinsert battery, press and hold volume down + power button until phone boots
Try charging you phone over night and check
Does the orange LED glow when you plug you phone to charger
Hit the thanks button if you find Mr helpful

phone is completely dead!
no orange light nothing...
removed battery, waited a few minutes put again, POWER + Volume up or down, nothing does anything...will try charger and battery from a friend tonight.
I also think a software crash wont kill the phone...but its strange that crashed first in Gmail app and second time also it was the Gmail APP...
But i also had the phone rooted... don't know if by some means could have corrupted the memory...
Will update later.
You will have to press and hold power and volume down button together for some time till phone boots
HIT THE THANKS BUTTON IF YOU FIND ME HELPFUL

Just held it for about 5 minutes....nothing......
also seems battery has 3.9V with a multimeter...should be good , anyway will try at night with a good one.
Hi all!
This morning I turned off the alarm, at that moment I think I had around 30% battery.
One or two hours later I found the phone turned off, so I supposed the battery went away.
So I connected the wall charger and after a while then I tried to turn it on.
When I did that, Back, Home and the other key started to blink. I remembered that already happened once, so I tried to press volume down + turn on button (or I tried to press the turn on button alone). And I did it for 30 seconds.
The keys stopped blinking and the red light turned off. Nothing else happened, no screen, no lights...
I left the phone connected to the charger, without light. Then I tried to press the turn on button again for 30 seconds, and the red light appeared.
The thing is, if I disconnect the charger, the red light keeps on, unless I press the switch button for 30 seconds and it gets off.
I don't know what to do, I supposed that maybe it's a qhsusb_dload case, but I have no idea.
I appreciate any assistance on this!
Regards,
Dani
Leave it plugged in overnight (or many hours) and try again.

Thank you for this quick response!
Even if the red light keeps turned on without being connected to the charger? It never happened to me.
Should I try with volume-down + switch key?
Yeah just make sure you leave it on charge for a long time before trying to turn it on.
If that doesn't work, plug it into your pc and see what comes up in device manager.

I have tried connecting it to the computer but was not recognized, no new device, nothing.
Stop messing with it, and just leave it alone to charge for several hours.
Hi guys, thanks for the replies.
I left it charging all night, and tried a moment ago and still not working.
i find weird the thing that it has like "2 modes"
- red light turned on all time, even if it's not charging (I left it charging in this mode)
- red light off (now I'm charging it in this mode)
I can switch the light by pressing the volume down + power button for around 20 seconds.
I'm going to try charging it connected to the computer.

If you are trying to get into bootloader, you actually have to release the power button (after pressing it for a few seconds) while still holding volume down. Don't release volume down until you see the white bootloader screen (or you get tired of doing it, and decide its not working).
Also try to get into bootloader while the wall charger is plugged in. There was at least one guy that had a similar issue, and the phone would not power on no matter what he tried, until he tried bootloader with the charger connected. Weird, I know. But worth a try.
I left the phone charging all night long, and it's the same... nothing.
I would analyze if it's a QHSUSB_DLOAD case. I'm downloading ubuntu.
If it's not, I think I'm gonna dissasembly the phone and see if there's something disconnected.
Any ideas are welcome, later I'm going to upload a video.
What method did you use to try to power it on?

I have tried just pressing power button for 10 seconds, then I've tried pressing it for 30 seconds.
Then I've tried pressing volume down + power for a few seconds, then release the power while keeping volume down, for a couple of seconds. Nothing,
Then I've tried with 30 seconds and what I see is that the red light is switched off when I do this.
What worry me most is that the red light keeps on even with the charger disconnected.
Short video:
Short video showing that is not entering to fastboot
Long video:
Long video showing that is not entering to fastboot and the red light gets off
Hi guys,
I left the phone 10hs connected to the computer instead of the wall charger and today the red light is blinking.
I've read that is due a very low battery charge, but I've left it charging for 10hs or more, how could it be??
Is your pc recognising the device at all now?

I have the same problem but except my red light isn't on at all. I just connected to my PC again and it read it but still doesn't turn on.
That's a brick. You can try the unbrick evita thread or jtagg

Hi all, thanks for all the responses.
Which unbrick do you recommend???
Not you. Yours appears to be a battery or charging issue. Hardware.
The other guys is a brick.

Is there any other cause? Or it's sure that is a hardware issue?
I just want try to avoid sending the phone service, because it was unlocked.

I have tried connecting the phone to ubuntu and executed lsusb from terminal.
Listed a couple of usb devices but not the phone.
It's difficult to be certain that its hardware but typically the phone would return to its normal state after a long charge. I recall another person who was also not able to return his to a normal state in the sane situation as you and he had to send it out. Yours does not display the same qualities of a phone stuck in qdl mode.

Today I have faced a big problem on Xperia C. When my phone showed 16% charge remaining, then i switched off the phone & plugged it in charging. After 2 hour when i tried to switch on, it didn't open. Still when i plug in charging the phone, it indicates charging light. But phone can'r run or open. Nothing is happening when i press power switch, even not vibration. Plz help me what can i do for solving this?
Have you tried the reset button... Remove the back panel and you should see a small reset point... Use a blunt object, press for about 3 seconds and it should get the phone fixed...

Hello guys, yesterday my nexus 5 suddenly turned off and than when I tried to turn it on some weird stuff started to happen. Sometimes the phone doesn't react on pressing the power button but sometimes it does and then I can see the google logo and it turns off. The most strange thing happens when I start to charge the phone. It turns on, shows the google logo and turns off and does it again. I found the guy with the same problem on youtube. Does anyone know what is going on and how to fix it?

Sounds like you have a stuck power button.
