Hi All,
My Desire S decided to die today for no apparent reason:
I had been browsing the internet before jumping in my car and switching on the bluetooth. I had been driving for about 10 mins when I got a call through on my cars bluetooth system, about 3 mins in to the call the caller disappeared even though the car said it was still connected.
I pulled over to check the phone and found it was frozen on the call screen. So I disconnected the battery and powered it up, but it could only get the the HTC splash and sound before the screen turned black and the unit became unresponsive.
A few more tries gave the same issue, so i decided to boot it into recovery to do a full wipe, this completed successfully, but the phone was still doing the same thing.
After removing the battery again the phone will now not turn on at all and does not respond to the charger (no led). I've tested another battery, but still no luck, and tried the bat from my DS in my sisters DS and it works fine.
So my phone is completely dead it seems. I should probably send it off to HTC for a repair, but the problem is that the phone is S-OFF and i have no way of getting it S-ON while it's bricked.
Can anybody suggest anything?
I'm not having much luck with HTC as my mozart is at the repair centre as we speak with a bootloader issue... I might have to choose another manufacturer in future
PS: It was S-OFF but running stock software
there is not much to say...try to remove battery and wait for a while...if issue still persist htc service is only hope

Thanks, i'll leave it overnight and see how it looks in the morning. Luckily i have an optimus one spare that has always served me well... It just does not come close to my DS.
I've just had a development!
When i plug it into my windows 7 pc it recognises it as a device "QHSUSB_DLOAD" but fails to install a driver for it.
Can anybody elaborate on what this is?
Thanks!

Afraid this is not good news...you'll need to reign the device and claim under warranty, I wouldn't worry of you made it soff they probably won't be able to tell, read the recent posts on the ext4 recovery thread as same thing happened to someone else

Ok thanks for letting me know. I must remember not to customize my HTC's in future...
Is not customize`s fault is yours because you removed the battery when it was still working (freeze yes but chip is still working) :| How ben_pyett said you must send it to htc... there are similar posts around here and all removed the battery > htc service ...sry mate

Do you think the DS should always be turned off when changing the battery?
If you don't intend to buy new one, yea, it should be

Shame the manual doesn't say so then!
Well i've got it booked in for repair.
Has anybody here had many dealings with HTC Repair, or Regenersis (the UK repairer)?
The guy I spoke to over email (i got fed up of waiting on the phone) about my Desire S was a complete retard. He sent me the same email 3 times in reply to me telling me to restore factory settings... Each time I told him it was not possible as the phone would not switch on...
He then told me that UPS could not pick up my phone for at least 2 weeks, this is despite the fact that I sent my Mozart in for repair last week and was told at least 48 hours. So I would have to find my own way to post or courier it.
Then he books the phone in and sends me the 'Tick Sheet' with the phone information and problem description and in the problem description box he wrote "HELLO"??? WTF? What sort of jokers are these?
At least the woman I spoke to about my Mozart was helpful, she actually gave a meaningful response to my questions, but even she got the problem description wrong, writing just "Reboot Cycle" which is way to vague considering the problem it actually had.
Hi, all.
Here is the situation....
In the past week or so I been getting update notices for .....45.....
Message was so brief that I haven't had a chance to get all numbers..
After accepting an update phone was hanging on the exclamation mark doing absolutely nothing over night...
Of course, I have my phone S-off and rooted. Nothing else was done yet, same stock ROM with no alterations. Now the tough part. Since that attempted update battery life was awful... Needed to charge almost twice a day...
NOW!!!! Does not take the charge at all... Charger works, charging my HD2 + USB computer charger nothing works. When plugged in and I remove the battery, insert it back it gives me an amber light for 5 seconds, then goes dark. Cannot boot with power cable plugged in..... Bunch of crap...
Did anybody else ran in to the same problem? Was that update meant to kill the phones with S-OFF? Or it's just my phone crapped up or battery?
Please give me some guide... 3 week old phone and so many problems.
Thanks all!!
No problem to bump my post.
Phone doesn't charge at all
Never, really never install an ota on a rooted ROM, even if its stock. I guess you should start by reinstalling stock ROM and wipe before. The charging thing is a known bug due to recovery. An update is available which you should install. You will have to manually charge the battery with a cut charging cable. Instructions can be found in this forum.

You don't have a Sensation yet and you are educating yourself in a proper way? I wish more people would be like you. Now, if only natural selection would work on online forums as well.

Everyone, I am starting this thread with one purpose and that is to see if others have experienced this problem. Also if so how many people have and if it is a major issue or just a freak thing that happened to me.
Ok my Sensation was running the stock ROM for the TMOUS Sensation which was the recent OTA update. This also means I had reverted back to the stock recovery too when I went back to the stock ROM well over a month ago. My Sensation was still Super CID though as far as I know. Now that should feel everyone in on the software that was on my Sensation.
Now for the problem, I was typing a text message to a friend this morning and as I was typing my message my Sensation froze up. This alone was odd as my Sensation had only federal up once before sense I purchased it back in October. Anyway I knew I had to pull the battery to reset my phone. But I was on my morning break at work and break time was over so I just put my phone in my front sweater pocket and walked the 5 minute or so walk back to where I was working on the job site. I pulled my phone out of my sweater pocket and noticed the screen was black. I pressed the power button expecting my phone to wake up but it did not. I pulled the back cover off and pulled the battery out for a full minute and reinserted it. My phone still would not turn on. Also to add my camera flash flashed once when I reinserted my battery. Anyway I repeated this process several times and still my phone did not turn on, but the flash only flashed that one time.
I got home and tried my wife's battery from her Sensation but still my phone SD not turn on. I tried my battery in her Sensation and her phone turned on fine with my battery. So I concluded my Sensation was screwed and proceeded to call T-Mobile costumer service and spend about a hour on the phone with them until they agreed to send me a replacement Sensation.
If anyone else has experienced or experiences this in the future please post here in this thread.
Edit: Thank gosh I still have my HD2 as a back up device.
Edit 2: I came across a post that lead me to a thread started by XDA Senior Member namila007. It had other XDA members that report their Sensations dieing in the same manor.
Happened to a Desire S once. Froze, remove & re-installed battery the phone did booted to the splash screen only, but not any further. Replaced complete board under warranty.
Well this does not happen to most people but you should go for a new one under your warranty but sorry I do but know how to fix the problem
Nope, but I can say, that I am did the same thing as you did. Like reverting back to stock, and still having supercid. I've done that 2 month ago? Nothing wrong with.
That sucks man. I had that happen to a vibrant i had.
sent from my Sensation on CM7 Alpha#10
Yea, this happened to me too. I was playing some xbox 360, went to check the time on my phone...Wound up a few hours later feeling like a turd and waiting for a replacement from Tmobile.
No idea what happened. The last thing it did was make a noise when I plugged it into my laptop, prompted my computer to install drivers (failed) and then mentioned that dreaded message that implies the phone is needing to be flashed by the factory. (QHSUSB_DLOAD)
If you see your computer mention QHSUSB_DLOAD, then your phone is 100% bricked.

Just wanted to say thanks for the replies to all and thanks for everyone that has viewed this thread. And just in case anyone missed it in the OP, I am currently waiting on my replacement Sensation from T-Mobile. It will not arrived until the 25th of January. Again thank goodness I still have my trusty HD2 or I would be without a phone until the 25th.
Now to the post above me, I have not even tried to connect my Sensation to my computer because it will not even power on what so ever. The charge indicator led does not even come on when you connect the charger. So I highly doubt I would even get anything at all if I connected it to my computer. But I might just plug it into my computer out f curiosity to see what does happen.

Hi,
Hey,I am really sorry to hear about your phone.
It is very rare that people report total failure like yours,so I would imagine that it is just a freak situation.
I am also glad that you are getting a replacement without any problem.
Other than that ,hope all is well with you.
I assume this is quite a common problem. I received my sensation xe just a few days before the new year it was constantly over heating down the bottom where the touch buttons are causing it to shutdown / reboot this was when doing basic tasks like browsing the web. I then had my phone completely die a couple of days ago.
I took the phone into a vodaphone store yesterday and they exchanged it with a new handset.. I haven't had any problems yet.
I was reading through the Sensation Unbricking Project thread and found the below quoted post. I thought I would add it here as it matches what happen to my original Sensation

will this method recover my phone??

Call HTC they will replace it you just have to pay for shipping its like 20 bucks I had two phones replaced and they arrived in a week don't waste your time trying to fix it. you should still be under manufacture warranty cause this phone is not a year old yet.

Ha ha thanks but I have had my replacement phone for at least a month or more. I actually revived this thread because I finally found another post by another member that claims to have had their Sensation. I feel like they way my Sensation died is a pure hardware failure.
I started this thread in hopes that others that had the miss fortune of this happening to them could find this thread and know that it had happen to someonelse. Also so maybe a fair consinsus of what may be the cause, if it is just random, and some kind of idea of a percentage of devices it happens to.
I see that namila007 also started a thread about his Sensation dieing in the same way. It is a copleofother people that have posted in his thread saying that their Sensation deied in the same way. I am going to up date the OP with a link to his thread and post in his thread as well.
what to do :/ i also think its should be a hardware failure . im going to contact htc coz im still under the warranty
Hello everyone I have a HTC Sensation XE, which mounted Android jelly bean with Rom CM10 Kang Alpha, everything worked perfectly until one day the battery has reached the 2% and the phone is turned off, as there are no longer on, and connecting the power does not turn on no led, I tried to leave it attached a few hours, remove the battery for a while and I also tried it with a charged battery (my friend's) but to no avail.
Connecting it to the PC recognizes it as qhsusb_dload, (but can not find the driver)
I discovered that the qhsusb_dload mode means that the phone is a brick.
Now I wonder: is it possible that my phone is a brick just because the battery is completely discharged? or is it more likely to be a hardware problem?
In your opinion, support HTC notices that are S-OF?
When they call and ask me what I was doing with the phone, what do I tell him?
Thank you all! :good:

its because the battery drained too much (the internal power )
i may be wrong ..but thats my guess
Sometimes if battery drains to zero the battery goes into a deep sleep and this possibly is causing this. I lost battery down to zero once and no charging light or anything came on. I did not try to see what my phone was recognized at so I'm not sure about QHSUB_DLOAD but I do know it had no vital signs not even charging light! What I did was immediately put another battery in my device and it came back to life ! If you do have another battery put it in and see if this works for you. It worked for me! But like I said, I don't know if device was QHSUB_DLOAD or not because I did not test it. All I know is it had no charging light or anything! It's sure worth a try ! I wish you the best and hopefully this issue will be resolved soon.

Hello and thank you for your reply, I already tried with another identical battery and charging, but unfortunately to no avail, now I'm trying to let it charge without battery for about ten hours, hopefully good!
I doubt if its a brick, What I think is that HTC put some code into the kernel and other things that means if the phone has run completely flat then it wont boot up until at least 40% charged - This is what has happened to me and lots of others

Very strange. What were you doing before the battery died? This could be an important factor in what is
Happening. Were you flashing anything ? Or changing anything ? Were you in the middle of anything? Very strange it would do this from just the battery draining ? I've heard of this happening to others also when battery drains to zero. It kind of makes me afraid of draining my battery to zero. I do wonder what exactly causes this. You say you tried a new battery and the charging advice given in posts and still no joy. I wish I could be of more help but I'm not even sure why this would happen .I do hope you get this issue solved soon! I wish you the best.

I also can not understand what happened.
Before the phone is turned off, I was playing a game. I was not fleshad it, touching it with sensitive data.
I flashed a Rom for weeks and everything worked without any problem.
I have NEVER done any overclocking the system.
The only thing I think is that it is a hardware problem and the battery was just a coincidence.
I think I'll try with the assistance hoping to be adjusted with the warranty.
I attach the phone to a sheet where I describe what happened, what do you think I can write to you to be as convincing as possible and do not put a check in the bottom of the story?
Thank you very much! :good:

I tried this solution but when I run the script to find the phone (. / Brickdetect.sh) misses the phone and I can not go on.
Just tell the warentee people that the phone just simply died. I wouldn't go into the part about it being bricked if I were you. Then they can say you somehow caused it. Actually the less you say the better! Don't tell them its rooted, don't tell them its bricked just play ignorant and say it died and won't charge. They will replace it then. When they ask questions play as ignorant as possible ! This will work in your favor. If you go into the part about it being bricked it will raise a red flag up and likely they will blame you. Simply say it died.. ..it won't charge. .....that's it. I don't think you will have any trouble that way. And surely it will be replaced ! No worries friend. But between us how the hell does a dead battery brick a phone? Its bizarre. Now I'm going to make sure and never run my battery to zero again! It makes me worried. So strange don't you think ? Oh well I know they will replace it and all will be good. Please keep us posted on what happens OK. Best wishes to you and don't worry they should replace it without any problem.

That usb mode is for RIFF box resurection. Mode in witch u can flash bootloader, it must be done with riff jtag box! Trust me, i know what i'm talking about... For some reason, bootloader is corrupted. You can aks that in any mobile service shop that have riff.
It's a very simple to flash it again, after that you can flash stock or custom rom. After that everything will be fine again!

Thanks a lot of good advice.
I will keep you updated on the matter, I'm going to deliver assistance in the phone.
I also can not understand what happened, I flashed a dozen times without any problems and always with caution, and now I'm a brick phone just because the charge is arrived at 1%

Also your story is strange.
If you have just bought and the guarantee I would refer back immediately demanding immediate replacement.
If not you can try with the unbricking project. With me it was not successful!
no i mean now that you i assume have charged the battery does it vibrate or is it totally dead?

Thanks a lot of good advice.
I will keep you updated on the matter, I'm going to deliver assistance in the phone.
I also can not understand what happened, I flashed a dozen times without any problems and always with caution, and now I'm a brick phone just because the charge is arrived at 1%
We had heard about this solution, now first try with the help hoping that me to adjust it with the warranty, if it is not rather use this method!
The phone when the battery is exhausted never gave any sign of life, it is a real damn brick.
Also your story is strange.
If you have just bought and the guarantee I would refer back immediately demanding immediate replacement.
If not you can try with the unbricking project. With me it was not successful!

Yes, this bothers me also. And its not the first time I've heard of this happening. I read somewhere that some batteries when brought down to zero or one percent have a deep sleep trigger that most chargers can't bring the battery out of and I'm wondering if that happened and effected the device somehow? Somehow bricking it? This is just a thought, I don't know for sure but it's all I can think of that could have possibly happened. Just guessing here but it's possible ? Perhaps? I can't imagine what else could have happened?? I now will try to never bring my battery down to zero. Just in case....it could be completely unrelated but it seems suspicious. Also having heard this happening before makes me wonder?? I do Hope you get your replacement soon and all goes well for you! Please do keep us posted on what happens and good luck!!
sent from HTC sensation, soff, 3.33 firmware, viper Rom, sense 4.1, kernel version PYD-X stable 3.1, mugen battery 3800mah. Please press thanks if I helped in anyway.
So I was using my phone playing a game when it all of a sudden said phone was at 0% and then shut down. It was at 30% just about 2 minutes before. I have been looking online to see what the issue and I just get more confused, mainly because my phone is all stock, its not rooted or unlocked. Can someone please help me because I am totally dumbfounded.
Thanks.

Hey there!
If this problem happens again, then its definitely an issue with the battery and i will recommend you to change it.
If not, then it was probably just a coincidence.
