hello
i have drain my battery.
now it dont charge and dont turn on
i think is the CWM.
i used a 9v battery to charge my battery, but the phone dont turn on
when i connect to be charged the orange led, blinks for 11 times...
what i can do to turn on my phone ?
I had this problem. its not CWM. If u drained your battery till its fully dead. It has to be charged at a certain point for it to turn on. the blinking orange light means its charging. I left mines for 5 mins on the charger then unplugged it. Then hit the power button, then it turns on.

i will try it...
what recovery you have ?
i have cwm 4.1.0.5
Question... When you plugged it in in it's "completely dead" state, was the led off, flashing, solid? I drained my battery completely, when I plug it in, the led flashing 11 times last 3 flashes are slow then goes dark.
I tried doing what the ABOVE post said with connecting a bare usb wire for 20 mins to + and - red and black ...
but did not work either, maybe just going to tmobile and getting a battery switched out since it is still a new phone... may work? Its not even recognizing the phone in the computer to do the adb reboot function either... someone who fixed this issue please help us! dire need to use the phone ahhhh
theres like 4-5 people with this problem on the forums right now that havent figured out how to solve it

flashed this recovery and tested for charging while off and led on PERFECT thanks!!!
Hey guys, i've done the search button and still can't find any answers. First of all, all i've done to my phone : S-off, superuser, root. No custom ROM installed. i did that 2days prior yesterday and it was working and charging fine. So yesterday when i was playing paradise island my phone died. I connected it to the USB wall charger and left my room. After 3-4hrs, my phone is still dead. So i thought maybe the USB or wall charger is not working. I tried using my cousin Mytouch wall charger with the htc USB, still doesnt work but using my wallcharger with the mytouch usb, my cousin's phone charges.
When i try to charge my phone, the amber light comes on but its flashing, then after 3 times, light will stop
Troubleshooting i've done
I've tried numerous times to go to HBOOT, nothing
Removed the battery several times, nothing
tried USB charging through my laptop nothing.
Any help guys??
Same issue!
Please help with this!!
CMW
If you search you'll find that there is a problem and after installing CMW Recovery most phones will not charge if they're off, so if you let your battery drain to the last you will be unable to charge your battery trought the phone, no solution at this moment for this
Work arounds
- Charge your battery on a wall charger directly not trought the phone
- Charge your battery on an stock untouched Sensation

Wallcharger, is there one i can purchase??
Is the battery itself the problem?? because t-mobile, will sent me a new battery. I've only had this phone for 3 weeks. IF the battery itself not the problem, they will send me a new phone but i'm assuming that i've going to have to send the old phone back, is there going to be an issue regarding the warranty when i send the old phone to them???
it's not the battery, it's the cmw what's the problem. You have an older version of cmw.
I see, where to get the latest CWM? There's a way to go back to stock right?
Now i kinda regret S-OFF,ROOt, CWM ...lol..-.- i know it's my fault tho...
Once you managed to boot the phone again, you can install rom manager, from there you can easily install the latest cmw.
i have the latest CMW Still doesn't charge when battery at 0%
You would think they would test CMW before releasing....

I used CWM 4.0.1.4. From what i know its suppose to fix the charging problem. As of right now, im trying to manually charge my battery by splitting on of my old USB cable +wall charger. So hopefully this will work.
None of the threads in the entire forum are even remotely helpful if you can't even get the phone to turn on.
I can't reflash the recovery - if there is no way for me to get into the bootloader.
A wall charger hasn't helped - nor my N1 battery taped in.
NOTHING.
Please stop jumping a million steps ahead to reflashing the recovery - start with HOW TO TURN THE PHONE ON - bearing in mind that NOTHING IN THE FORUM so far has worked.

I've been using my brothers G2 battery (which doesn't fit) to turn on my phone.
But since I don't have a universal charger, and my phone wont turn on (I tried EVERYTHING) than there is no point to attempt to get into recovery unless I'm going back to stock.
Tl;DR CWM Needs to fix there shhhhhheeeet.
I finally manage to turn on my fone by splitting my old usb cable...i know somone said, its dangerous but it work for me....so do it at your own risk....now im juz looking for a safe wayto revert to stock w/o cwm,root,super user....might keep S-off tho
Any suggestion
If u need to start you fone....get a spare usb cable...and split it..remove the battery from your fone. Now tape the red wire to positive and black to negative....attach the usb to ur wall charger.....then wait 10- 20 min. Now remove ur battery then insert it back to you phone and turn it on. Once it starts, connect it to ur htc usb+ wallcharger.... once again, someone said its dangerous....so make this your last resort

Yeah. That didn't work for me. After splitting two cables - I decided to cut my losses.
Unfortunately I'm not in the US - and that's where I bought the phone. I'm going to try and find and independent vendor and see if they have a battery I can buy.
If not - I am ROYALLY screwed.
Yeah the battery/cwm combo is ****ed. So angry.
Do you have the one with the blue text? It's supposed to fix these issues
Swyped from my HTC Sensation
Sorry to revive this thread, but I am in the same boat. After trying to flash android on my brother's hd2, I noticed that the battery died. I cannot charge it since it has no ROM currently installed... Has there been a fix?
So I rooted and installed leo rom and it was nice. Wanted to try the neon pyramid rom, installed and all was fine.. I noticed though it seemed as if the battery wasnt charging like it did before. So I chose to let it discharge all the way down to 0 and re charge. All was well, until I went to plug it into the charger and now I get a blinking orange light for a while, then it just turns off (no light.) The phone will not turn on and the only light i get is when i first plug it into the charger it blinks maybe 20 times and thats it.
Are there any tricks I can try to wake this thing from the dead? What should I do?
Any help is appreciated, I need my phone back!
Why did you post this in the Sensation forum? You seem to have a Nexus S, see your signature.
Back to the problem:
What happens is you remove the battery, put it back in and hold the volume down button and power button till you see something...does this work?
This is a known problem and can be easily remedied.
Basically, on some Sensation's, the custom recovery img (CWM) doesn't let you charge when the phone is completely discharged.
To correct this, follow these steps:
Take out the battery and put it back in
Plug in the USB cable to charge the phone
Leave it for an hour or two
Come back
Unplug USB cable and try turning the Sensation on. If this doesn't work, take out the battery and put it back in. DO NOT plug the USB cable back in.
You may have to do this a few times to get it right. For more info, look at this thread.
Hope that helps
I must update my signature...ive got both, but I get nothing when trying to boot to the bootloader

Tried a couple times, ive got nothing, is there something i am missing?
Ok, the above method did not work, HOWEVER I found another thread and tried it.
I cut the usb cable open, and connected the positive and negative to the leads on the phone, inserted battery and it powered on, now I am charging and good to go. Whew!
Thanks guys!

he guys!
i need a little help and i can't seem to find a thread that might help me.
i have an htc desire (root+s-off) and two days ago tried to flash a new rom. and as i was already at it flashed the newest radio version and an sd-alignment, because i had just before had had to flash the original shipped rom because my phone didn't react anymore. so i did the root and s-off again, flashed all three zips and rebooted. after that my display went black and nothing happened for a while so i removed the battery and tried to restart the phone but it didn't. i tried to connect it to my computer and it doesn't recognize the device anymore.
either i removed the battery too early and bricked it or it was a bad idea to flash 3zips at the same time.
has anybody encountered this before and is there sth i can do?
any help will be greatly appreciated.
Can you boot into the bootloader through Vol - and Power button?
unfortunately no.
device does not react at all. i can push any button but the phone stays dead. screen stays black, no LED flashing, doesn't vibrate, nothing!
Maby its time to part as equals and donate it to the dev team?
Do you want to help out developers? Got a broken device?
the desire won't help them because it has a snapdragon cpu.
is there really no possibility to fix this?
maybe a too simple solution, but could the battery be dead or empty?
since you get absolutely no reponse...
I considered that too but the battery was NOT empty when the phone died.
I thought it might still be that the battery is just broken but I read that when you take out the battery and connect the phone to your computer or plug in the charger the LED still flashes. And with my phone it doesn't.
Your led won't flash if your phone is off. Try taking out the battery and plugging the phone in to the charger and see if it turns on.

How long do you let it charge before trying to turn on? If its right dead, then you should probably leave it plugged in for ten minutes or so before trying to turn it on.

But if I take out the battery how can it charge?
I thought if I take out the battery and plug it in, it should come back to life immediately?
But if you think that could help, I'll be happy to try.
So let me sum this up to be sure I got it right:
I take out the battery, plug it in, wait for a couple minutes and then try turning it on, right?
YOu should take the battery by pluging it at least 5 - 10 minute for sure it is already charging then try to turn on your phone again, this might work
im not sure the phone will work at all without the battery in place (haven't tested)
But i think that Kenny means, putting the battery in and letting it charge for a little while before trying.

The phone will work while plugged in without the battery. But try what Kenny suggested.

Hi folks!
I brought a HTC Sensation on eBay, but until now, only the phone and USB cable arrives.
So i need to know if is possible turn on the phone only with USB cable and (wall) charger, without the battery.
Is it possible?
Does damage the device?
No it's not possible. You need battery

I wish modern phones were able to turn on without the battery, while plugged in, like the old phones used to. Dunno why they stopped, but it came in handy when your battery was bunk and you had to use the phone, even as a corded handset, for a while

Probably because it's possible to use more power than what is coming in, so they removed the "feature" for stability reasons. Using Google Maps for navigation with GPS on and the screen brightness all the way up can do this, and some people will even have bluetooth enabled to tether to their car stereo, draining the battery WAY faster than what a charger can push in.

Your right. There's also a chance of eMMC damage or data corruption/loss by loss of power. In the end, letting you connect a flash memory phone to a computer and switch it on without a battery will only hurt the device.
Btteries must have at least a 1-2% charge before the device can be powered on. Your sensation will flash it's amber LED to warn you if the battery doesn't have enough charge to turn on while the phone is connected to a charger.
Thank you so much guys!
I'll open a case on eBay and buy other battery.
