Depends if it is hard bricked or soft bricked. If the screens turns on and appears the PC---/!\ --- phone. The he can try to use the three key combination or the usb homemade jig. Otherwise he can try to find someone with the JTAG

search in google JTAG galaxy for more info.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordanooo:
sounds like a hard brick. People claim that taking the battery and sim out of the phone for 30 mins (min) and then putting back in and booting to download mode sometimes works

You could try that

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FadeFx:
On galaxy s this also happens from time to time, even i had it once. Try if Odin possibly connects anyway and flash again, if not, remove your battery leave it out for 60 seconds and then try if you can get to download mode again. You definitely have not hardbricked your device...

Hello friend!!! You are lucky enough to still be able to get into download mode. Please check you PM box (messages). I am sending you a link you might find helpful.

Best of luck with the device, let me know if I can help more during the process.

Did you already try: vol up, menu, power on (by this order, holding them all together in the end) ???

(It might be that for your device you should press and hold: vol down, home button, power)

Did you try taking out the battery (for 10 - 15 secs) and trying the above combination again???

Also you might find this page of interest for your case: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1734997. Credits to [MENTION=3963883]neerajganga[/MENTION]

Please take a look at your PM messages.

A last comment; in my experience, using the latest version of Odin and firmware from the links I sent you, never required extra files (like pit or any other type).

Best of luck! :good: Share how it goes!
[HTC Sensation] gotpriest:
Thanks in advance for any help you fine chaps may (or may not!) provide.

Been lurking for quite a while. My brother rooted and put Cyanogen on my MyTouch3G about a year ago, and now that I'm on Senny for 60 days, I've about had it with the clutter and bloatware that came with the phone.

What I'm looking for:

- A sleek, sexy look. This will probably involve installing the ICS theme at some point.

- Minimalist. Seriously. I use like 20-25 apps. Maybe. If I don't use it, get it the hell off my phone.

- Good Camera. My phone is my social line. I take pictures of my cat, record idiots in the parking lot, and use it like a mirror all the frakkin time.

- Good Performance. Shouldn't need to be stated on a forum like this, but yes.

- Good Battery Life. Alas, the Stock Battery life has much to be desired of on the Sensation, but much can be fixed through a 1730 battery and judicious Modding.

What I'm not Looking for:

- The 2009 Android Look. Seriously. We're beyond that. Lockscreen Widgets, beautiful status bars, I need it, I want it. It's why I pay for a nice phone.

- So Barebones that I have to call a Bishop and pray to 7 saints in order to find settings or get to commonly used features.

Unfortunately, I think I'm going to have to part ways with HTC Sense. It's certainly a beautiful program. (I love the lock ring. I've embraced it and loved it since the first day. Goodbye, ring.) Unfortunately, many of you claim (and some others yet prove) that the Sense is a leech upon the Android system and needs to be purged. Up onto the altar now Sense. Yes. You. Shoo. Time for the sacrifice.

With that in mind, I've been recommended to use:

Reverted (The expansion on Xboarder's Mod). Looks interesting enough to try.

On the forums I've seen and have interest in:

HyperSensation

Cyanogen7 Basic

The drawbacks to the first is that it's still pretty deep in development it seems (Reverted, despite Xboarder's being pretty complete.) I also have heard that ADW Launcher has issues on it.

I'm intrigued by HyperSensation, but am not too keen on the theming styles for it.

I have experience with Cyanogen, but again, it's just the base that most people work from. Not the best necessarily, but stable and reliable.

Does anyone have any recommendations, thoughts, or advice, regarding a ROM that may suit my interests, or thoughts to persuade or dissuade me from my current three interests? I do this mostly to save time - I work in Retail at the moment, and being the Christmas season, I have little time to be fiddling around every night installing a different ROM.

Last, but not least. If I do find myself having to install different ROM's repeatedly, what's the best way to backup and restore my essential data between wipes? Can Titanium Free do everything I need?

Many thanks again, ladies, gentlemen, and newly self aware mechanical constructs!
[HTC Sensation] mpmilestogo:
I'd love to recommend one of the Sense ROMs but you said you are done with them. Perhaps a half-way point is to install one and then "de-sense" it. You get some of the better parts of things but have a lighter look and feel. In the dev section there are a number of ways to lighten the ROMs or you could just start flashing things like crazy Sense or not and see what sticks. I have two HTC Sensation 4Gs thanks to a mistake with tmobile so one runs CM7 alpha 10 and the other is now running InsertCoin (today). I've pretty much given in to the fact that the very first app I install is titanium backup and then I restore my apps. I also do nandroid backups very often so I have a known place to get back to.

My advice fwiw. Just start flashing, testing, removing, re-installing. Just go crazy with the new Sense ROMs and CM7. Something will stick unless you are like some of the rest of us and just want to flash things at some regular pace :-)

I do like some of the Sense ROMs though. The Energy Sense ROM is very nice and I like Insert Coin and ARHD quite a bit. CM7 wins me over though and I still have a G2/Vision phone which has a CM7 nightly on it which I swap the simcard to every so often because I like that phone too.

Give 'em all a try and then come back in some days or a week. Then all of the developers will release new stuff. Its an agonizing circle of downloading, reading, fixing, wishing.

And I enjoy every minute of it.
[HTC Sensation] gotpriest:
I suppose my next question would be, what is the limit to which I can Mod an existing ROM.

Say for instance I wanted to use basic CM7 or Reverted's Mod, but install Amaze Cam, a new SMS Mod, and an ICS theme on top of that.

Is that possible? Or would it change the ROM / make it unusable?
[HTC Sensation] Galaxa12:
I highly suggest Coredroid 2.7 That's what i have and it has the looks that no other rom has.. it's fast and isn't overloaded.. It's a beauty.. Atleast go look at it =D http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1195902
[HTC Sensation] Tromador:
I don't believe you can have the Amaze Cam without Sense and it's worth noting that CM7 on Sensation is reported to have some camera issues (which can perhaps be eased with different cam mods/apps). I can't verify this, although I use CM7 and like it very much, I've never once used the camera, it's simply not one of the features I really need on my handheld.

If you want "the most toys" but without the sense bloat, you are probably best getting one of the Sense based ROMs that has a lot of the sense interface removed. ARHD is highly used and comes well recommended, so you could try that.

See http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1098849 and look for post #4 for the de-sensed version.
[HTC Sensation] gotpriest:
Is it possible to theme Sense-based ROM's to look like ICS at all?

Edit: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19451428

Is there any reason that Theme from Desire wouldn't work on Sensation?
[HTC Sensation] computerslayer:
I would echo the ARHD recommendation. You can kill of Sense if you like, but it is pretty clean even with it.

- Computerslayer
[HTC Sensation] mitchsurp:
I jump back and forth between ARHD, InsertCoin and P3D, though less of that last one lately. They're all Sense-based, but you can rid yourself of many Sense things by just using a custom Launcher, like GoLauncher. That way you can still have a functional camera (likely an issue, I hear, in CM7), and keep the lock screen.

Also, I know you said Titanium Backup Free would do the job, but if you do fork over the $6 for the premium version, all the restore installs are silent... that is, you don't need to click "INSTALL" and "DONE" for each one. The apps and their data are installed in the background. It's the best $6 I've ever spent on an app.
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
Hm Reverted or any of the other CM-based builds sound like what you're looking for except for the camera part since they all use the ****ty aosp camera.

Miui is pretty solid, but Scott and TD are still working on porting the miui cam. But until then, it also has the ****ty aosp cam. :( But until ics becomes reality for us, this is what I'm waiting for.

In the meantime, I desensed AHRD with this script and it's actually pretty decent. Plus you get to keep the lockscreen and sense cam. If you really wanted an ics look, you could replace the included Launcher Pro with ICS Launcher. Don't get confused with the term "desense" though. Sense is still there. Scripts like these just get rid of Rosie and delete all of the HTC widgets and extras.

It just shows red light, three red lights when i try to turn on, and then continuous red light when im trying to charge
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aR_ChRiS:
Red long led when charging means it's charging, but the battery is still flat.

Leave it for around 2 hours you should see an orange/green led lit.

After having your handset ready for flashing, just pop flashtool up and start restoring.

Flashtool won't read my phone, it just says "Please flash your device in flash mode."

I know the battery was fully charged as well because i used my friends phone, (Also X10).

Still can't access XRecovery as well

Fixed the Phone

I was able to fix the phone. Turned off the phone and took out the SIM card and while the sim card was out, i was able to get the phone to connect to the laptop. Tried PC companion to repair phone but it failed, so i immediately went to Flashtool and flashed the generic rom and it worked (: YAY

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
A rom reflash will fix it. The reason the back up doesnt work is it is just backing up what you have and it is broken so to speak. Not sure about using a mac but put a fresh rom zip on your sd card and then flash the rom and let it boot. The common issue for this is doing a reset after the rom flash which removes somethings the roms need to boot.

Hi Everyone,

I have a problems with my screen after I flashed new ROM. I tried couple Rom like MikG v2.59 and Stock Rom leak 4.24.651.1. I got the same problem with my screen too dim almost can see anything. I have to turn off the light or I have to reboot the phone. Everytime I reboot the phone, the brightness comes back to normal but when i do the lock screen or turn off the screen then my brightness doesnt come back at all. I dont have any problem with my froyo 2.2 (original rom).

Note: Every times I flash, I wipe userdata, cache, and dalvik-cache at least 3 times.

I am logged into google on both devices, laptop and phone, i have USB Debugging set to OFF and I am on Mass Storage. Now normally when I am browsing the android market through my laptop, and purchase/download things, it would automatically set to download onto my phone. However ever since I got the new market (dark-black themed) and/or installed AirFluip's KJ6 AOSP ROM, I haven't been able to download via PC. Also some apps when I try to download through my phone, it says "Insufficient space on Phone" meanwhile I have like 400 mb of storage. The app I was trying to download was only 8 MB. Could this be a bug? or a problem with the actual software?

never mind, i got fixed it. Turns out the actual problem was, in fact, the cache. even if i cleared it in applications, it wouldnt work. but i found an app on the market called MarketFix.

[HTC EVO 3D] markdexter:
Can anyone explain why the CDMA version of our phones has more ROMS to choose from??

Is it much a matter of it being more popular?

The Warm Rom for the CDMA, is one of the nicest looking Roms ive seen, how much work is it to port it over to GSM?
[HTC EVO 3D] lamlopeala:
If I am not mistaken, the CDMA version was released earlier than the GSM version, therefore development started earlier. Also, until recently (sometime in september) HTC finally released the code for their Kernel for the GSM version so developers can play around with. In regards to porting CDMA to GSM, im sure there is lots of technical reasons. As an example, we are eagerly waiting for the guys at MIUI (Scott) to finish making a stable/working version for us. Im sure once that one is finished, we will have an AOSP Kernel which will allow other developers to port more ROMs over here ;) (hopefully)
[HTC EVO 3D] phonghoangka:
gsm and cdma veraion has any diffence, so u think it'll take a long time for dev , so now MIUI rom has in project, just wait
[HTC EVO 3D] Skeletal:
I might be incorrect in saying this, but aren't the phones sold by Sprint in the USA running on CDMA? This might account for the high number of CDMA phones out there, and therefore more ROM development for them?
