I get very, very poor battery life when I visit sites that use flash, games as well would probably have the same results, have you tried turning off your auto-adjust brightness settings? Also, what custom ROM/kernel are you using?

My "time since unplugged" time is never right. It seems like it always gets reset somehow to where its always showing a shorter time than it should be. Im trying to do some battery test and this is making this very difficult. Figured id ask in here first before posting a topic. I've searched but couldnt find anyone with the same problem. Im running phoeinix ultimate js7 and onix 2.0.1 if that makes any difference.

I use my phone all day long. I'm on campus for most of day. Which means like any other student, I'm going to get bored, browse Facebook, text message, get on Skype, and maybe play angry birds for a little while my professor is "teaching me something new" that the rest of my moronic classmates don't know cause they don't read our textbook.

I have seen some widgets cause excessive battery drain. Might take a look at which ones you configured. A reboot sometimes helps as well.
[HTC Incredible S] Reja87:
Hello Guys,

i want to sell my Incredible S and now its my turn to flash it back to the original HTC-Stock Rom. Till now i used the Android Revolution Rom with a EXT4 Clockwork / Recovery Mode . The Incredible was bought in Germany so the Languange of the Stock-Rom should be German or Multilanguange.

I allready checked this Thread :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1033922

but i dont know which of those roms is the one iam looking for nor how to flash it back. Do i simply use a RUU-Installer or do i flash it like i did with the custom rom?

Thank you for your help!
[HTC Incredible S] wallytax:
You can just flash the RUU. I managed to get my phone back to stock that way. Others needed an extra step, changing the hboot first. I did not. But use the search function. This question is already asked and answered many times now...

Use the WWE variant...
[HTC Incredible S] Reja87:
Hello wallytax,

thank you much for your answer. I realy tried the search-function but i was not able to find a helpfull thread about my question. Sorry about that.

So this one would make it :

RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.12.405.7_Radio_20 .2804.30.085AU_3805.04.03.22_M_release_187295_sign ed

?

As much as i understand "WWE" means "World Wide English". Is this also Multilanguange (for german)?

If i have to do that, how does this work? Could you please post a Link for a tutorial?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Yes the WWE ROM is also multi-language with German.
[HTC Incredible S] wallytax:
I used this one:

RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.30.405.1_Radio_20 .2808.30.085AU_3805.06.03.03_M_release_199308_sign ed

This is the newest Stock rom... Good luck! Hope you will succeed..
[HTC Incredible S] Reja87:
Hi Guys,

i tried the RUU-Installer wallytax mentioned. It worked like a charm!

i just had to install HTC-Sync Software and after that the Update went trough without any problem.

Thank you very much! :)

[HTC Sensation] listenger:
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?
[HTC Sensation] dagnai:
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...
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Have you tried a different battery?
[HTC Sensation] listenger:
I just ordered a new battery... Takes a couple of days before I recieve it
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Also keep note of which recovery you are working off of. There have been charging issues with certain recoveries.
[HTC Sensation] listenger:
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 :/
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
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.
[HTC Sensation] anarchyuk:
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..
[HTC Sensation] redbullcat:
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 :)
[HTC Sensation] arifafzan:
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?
[HTC Sensation] listenger:
Havn't had the time to really do any custom ROM or the like, so the phone was all original from the factory...

[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
First and foremost this is an UNOFFICIAL build of TWRP and is not supported by Team Win, but I do have permission from Team Win to post this build.

All the credit goes to Team Win for making this recovery image.

The source code for TWRP is found here: https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/

And since I edited 2 files to get this recovery image to work on our device, here they are: default_recovery_ui.c: http://db.tt/rr3Qdvm extra-functions.c: http://db.tt/HALUrq1

Within this recovery there are different button controls:

- Menu: Advanced Menu

- Home: Home Menu

- Back: Back

- Volume Keys: Up & Down

- Trackball: Up, Down, & Select

- Send: Select

This recovery image has the option of compressing your nandroid backups to save space on your SD card, albeit that it takes longer. Also all recovery image builds are flashable from recovery.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:

Just flashed it and I'm hella' impressed. I definitely like this over CWM 2.5.0.7 I highly doubt I'll go back to CWM since this has everything I want/need. If you do get free time and throw in a wipe boot, this will be epic. Even Jesus would use it on his HeroC. ;)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
Can't wait to try. I think that most any Rom wipes boot anyway during install. How much does the back up get compressed? That's the coolest feature I can think of right off the bat.

I have been flashing images in Advanced restore in cwm, but it sounds like you could flash other images as well... sort of an h-boot s-off flasher.

Any issues restoring backups from cwm? I guess I'm going to find out. I've been loving the lantern series too.

You think Meth is bad? Try being a flash whore with a Gingerbread habit and a legacy device! It ain't pretty.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ch1naski:
I know that with the 3d backups, the compression is around 50%... Maybe a little more. Takes longer to backup, but it's worth it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
Thanks ch1n, that sounds nice. I'm about to flash it. Just pulled it off of my dropbox.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Have you tried restoring a cwm backup on this yet? Or has anyone tried FR's with it? If not that's what ill test tonight.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
Idk about FR. As for restoring CWM backups, it won't work I think because TWRP uses a .win file type for backups while CWM uses .img and also different save locations. Give it a shot though!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
I found that out after I wiped everything. It creates os own folder with a backup folder in there. Was able to flash a cwm and restore. Lots of options.

I just stuck a backup in the backup folder, we shall see. I might backup in win, but it gets f'd up usually when I flash a new recovery, then backup. Do we need the recovery image in the backup?

Edit: tried flashing recovery then backing up and it got stock on system... at least I think I did. I waited 5-7 minutes. I did try compressed and I do have firerat's. It wouldn't do the cwm backup either.

You think Meth is bad? Try being a flash whore with a Gingerbread habit and a legacy device! It ain't pretty.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] InsaneHien:
Just flashed it, and it's not bad. It does have about the same options that Amon-RA recovery had, so that's good.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ch1naski:
Compression on the nandroid backups.

The ability to only backup the partitions you desire. Customization of the recovery. (does nothing, practicality-wise, but COOL). It's the shiznit.

Thanks dastin, you rock.

I am having my first problem :( When I try to do a backup, it just sits there and doesn't progress. I tried it with compression and without and it won't backup. I'm stumped. Do you have any ideas that I could try?

Regards,

rast4man
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
Did you flash the recovery over your last recovery (CWM) and then try and back up? I have issues with that all of the time when I change the recovery that I started with. I don't know if this is a firerat issue or not, but I think it does.

I tried flashing this recovery and then backing up; it got stuck on backing up System. This has happened to me whenever I flash a new recovery without wiping and starting from scratch with firerat's. So, I started from scratch and found that my mtd partitions did not stick. My system mtd was 170 (which we all know is the stock partition size. I suppose it's possible that I missed a step, but unlikely.

I'm glad to hear that it restored WildHeroc since I will use this recovery when running that since I don't use firerat's on that (too lazy to keep changing mtd partitions and deal with a bootloop issue that will make me have to restore jaybob's and the mtd is way off and I will have to start all over again LOL- talking about run on sentence).

I'm bummed it doesn't work with firerat's because I have been having issues when restoring where: the camera won't work, or, gmail won't send emails, or the last one: I would go Google from my browser (both) and I couldn't type anything on the site, but i could put a URL in. Weird. I will have to try again or maybe give a2sd a try.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Yea I have to say firerats doesn't work either. I tried many times and couldn't stick. And I know I didn't miss anything.

self proclaimed XDA resident prick
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rast4man:
Not sure why you're FR's isn't sticking, mine works fine but I'm having an overall problem backing up. I did flash over CWM 2.5.0.7 and apparently they don't like each other in that respect. I ended up having to do a flash to CWM 2.5.0.7 and a restore to an earlier backup made via CWM. :( I was kinda' bummed as I didn't have time to make a really recent backup and had to revert to something older and less configured. Oh well.

Maybe this recovery could use a few tweaks in order to get it to play nice with not only FR but also to work when flashed over a CWM. I'm hesitant about using it for backing up again as I had to do a wipe and more or less start over. Still a kick ass recovery just might need a few tweaks. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
Well I never use FR, but I flashed over CWM 4.0.1.4 and had no problems. I'll get to stuff when I can.

There's no reason to wipe the boot partition. Anytime you install a new kernel it gets wiped.

You guys are welcome to modify the source to add the option if you really want it, but we've made the decision on our end to not include it in any of our official builds.

I have added a link to this thread on our site under the unofficial build section.
