Mine just died today fully. Phone would turn on over the last couple of days then when it goes into stand by the screen would freeze. A pull of the battery and reboot would not get it to come back on. I then treid a couple of adb reboot commands and it got it back again.

Then today it just died. Not getting battery light or anything. All it will do is power on and vibrate then nothing. As I am custom rom I cant send it back or they will charge a fortune, so just bit the bullet and ordered a new one arriving on Saturday :)
[HTC Sensation] brilldoctor:
Let me just clarify - I have no screen protector on - Just this case http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005B3OEV2/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details - I have sent the phone in to carphone and will report when I get it back

When you plug it in to your PC, is it coming up with QLOAD USB or something like that?

Ok, just got it back from repair and its working fine (but they updated it so now I can't s off it)
[HTC Sensation] mariosaraylian:
@brilldoctor: I have been struggling with this for WEEKS! It is NOT a hardware problem. It's an upgrade to ICS and get stuck with this **** problem! I tried other threads and nothing successful. My capacitive backlights for the touchpad under the LCD's dont work either WITHIN a ROM. In recovery they work fine. Another run-around was to Fix Permissions in Recovery also and then boot into the ROM and sometimes they all worked, sometimes they didn't. Another one was to SuperWipe and start from scratch down to the Radio flashing level.....same ****, lights, sensors don't work.

I'm still going crazy trying to figure it out as it is NOT a hardware problem!!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] Arachnosoft:
Hi guys! I'm having the same problem here, my proximity sensor is not working at all, I'm on Virtuous inquisition 4.0.2 and tried different kernels but nothing! I just wanna know if it is a hardware problem or something else??
[HTC Sensation] Arachnosoft:
Do you guys found a solution or an explanation to the problem? Or still using your sensation without the proximity sensor?
[HTC Sensation] raggatokan:
Same thing with prox sensor here :(

Weird thing is that, when I take the flashlight and point it to the prox sensor (with light) andro sensor Anrdoid Sensor Box reports that proximity sensor is working (0.0 cm -> 3,5 cm).

That would definitely mean that it's a software, not a hardware problem.

Maybe some kind of calibration for proximity sensor would fix it, but I can't find one (there are for rezound and zte, but no for sensation (pyramid)).

How can I just disable it?
[HTC Sensation] brilldoctor:
I ended up sending it in for repair, which fixed it
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
Its the update that brought these problems. I've helped many with this same problem.

When you boot your phone, cover the sensor with your thumb. That is all.
[HTC Sensation] berilslv:
got same problem with elegancia .... no proximity and light sensor... sad , i tryed to serch every post in google... without luck.

Some1 got some ideas , exept send to warranty. So long i cant go without phone.

and wagedroid cover dont help :S huh , so unhappy :S
[HTC Sensation] tx3m:
I have the same problem as all of you guys. I tried everything I found as a possible solution on the web, but none of them worked for me. The funny thing is, that they work sometimes, and sometimes don't work. But what I found out, is that they are not working when the battery charge is 30%-100%, and when gets less than 30%, they start working perfectly. I tested it for about a week, and it was the same everytime the charge was getting less that 30%. So may be some of the developers might know where this problem could be coming from, since on a low charge the sensors work just fine.

If it matters, I am using my stock battery, but it is the same with my other battery.

My current ROM is ViperS 1.6.3, Sense 4.1 from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671547&highlight=vipers
[HTC Sensation] burn_the_house:
wd-40 spray method works

the same problem with both sensors i had on my sensation xe - sometimes they worked sometimes they don't,or one of them worked, anyway it has been around a month since i have used the WD-40 spray on the proximity and light sensor and i can confirm you guys that they work just fine! you will notice the difference in about 4-5 (or more) days after you apply the spray, at least 4 me it worked ! good luck (sorry for my bad english) ;)

Hello everyone

I am not able to get the root permission on Nexus s I9023 to work on ICS 4.0.3

although the steps does work with me on 2.3.7 Gingerbread before and i was rooting alot of nexus devices for my friends,

I've tried several su+busybox+Superuser.apk and nothing works

even tried to chmod su and busybox to 0755 and chown to root:shell

when i reboot the device after installing the su and busybox, i get message "updating System..." then the launcher runs, i go and try to check "Marketenabler" for example but, "Huston we've got problem "

even using the "terminal" app, then su -> permission deined

busybox -> it lists all the commands

All my tries unsuccessful, My ROM is OTA 4.0.3 Baseband I9023XXIKI1

kernel 3.0.8, build IML74K

my workstation operating system is Ubuntu

I'd like to get it rooted!!

Thanks for the forum geeks

update:

by more searches i came across "5023-cyan.img" the recovery image that was the key in successfull root of nexus s ICS 4.0.3

other recoveries will not get it rooted

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BartLuke94:
Hi guys, i have an HTC Mozart with custom rom and i love it, but i really want to know why the market doesn't have the games that the other market have, like fifa 12, dead space ecc, i really want to play those game on my wp7 :(

And an other question: why the price are so high (angry bird, fruit ninja ecc.)?

Sorry for my bad english
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Korhaan:
Hi,

There are a couple of reasons why there are less games. First off the WP7 marketplace is the newest out of the three app marketplaces of iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. It just takes time to build up a lot of apps, and WP7 has had the least time so far.

Since it is the newest marketplace, it prevents a lot of devs from trying the platform. For indie developers, not that much. But for larger studios there needs to be at least a certain user base before they will develop apps. I have also heard some people mention that it requires additional work to port existing games over to WP7.

This is what leads to the higher prices for the well known games like Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja. Since less high profile games have been ported over, the well known games can charge more. There really isn't an incentive for them to lower prices since they are already known on other platforms and are past the "give away stuff to get your name out phase".
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Additionally, Xbox Live games seem to come at a $3 minumum, although there are a couple of free ones that just give a few points (like, 50) of gamerscore. If you don't limit yourself to the big-name games, you'll see a lot of indie ones that are free or only a dollar, and some are very high quality. The trick is sorting through them to find the good ones.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tyeabc:
Additionally if you want a game but don't like the price watch it for a while, it might go on sale or maybe even free for a limited time.;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ssmug:
Anyone using Exchange on the native email client suddenly notice a huge battery drain/wakelock with Exchange server?

I haven't changed my email setup in weeks and I've never had this problem before. My phone is a little over 5 hours off charger and at 19%! Exchange services is at 19% with a 1h 13m wakelock on BBS.

I have Gmail and Hotmail (yeah, yeah) accounts both set up as push. Only the Gmail syncs contacts and calendar (I've double-checked everything). I probably get ~20 emails/day or so.

Until today, I would get >24 hours with light usage, and a full day with heavier usage. This literally started today out of the blue.

I searched all of XDA and the GN forums specifically and didn't see anything that addressed this particular issue. Any suggestions?

TIA
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ssmug:
Anyone?

The actual service is com.android.exchange.Exchange Services
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] king23adrianc:
somehow the native email push keeps running and waking up the phone..

so i just sent to never notify me.

and i manually click the app to check every now and then to solve this problem and maintain my battery life
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ssmug:
The weird thing is that it just started doing this, even though I haven't changed any settings in weeks. And not having push email would suck...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mudferret:
This has happened to me from time to time on CM and AOSP ROMs, but not on my GN yet. It's a Google problem IIRC and something that they "fixed" in the past, but they obviously haven't.

I'd observe this 1/10 nightly ROM flashes so I'd keep an eye on it for the first couple of hours afterwards and kill it if it was starting to go rogue.

It's a known, flagged, issue (on Google) but I don't have the link handy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d.cortez:
i noticed similar Exchange Mail behavior on my phone with any ROM that i flashed. i narrowed the constant-sync to my calendar. when i disabled calendar sync, the battery drain stopped. my research suggested the problem was related to a corrupt calendar or recurring calendar entries. so i archived all my Exchange calendar entries (which removed them from my calendar) removed then re-added the Exchange account to my phone and finally restored the calendar entries i needed. so far, no issues and i've flashed 3 ROMs and the problem has not returned. somewhat extreme, but it worked!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jpinsl:
I have no issues with stock Exchange and Gmail apps on rooted 4.0.4.

You could try deleting and recreating the email accounts to see if that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deyanp:
Also got the issue this night. 25% gone after 4 hours sleep, wakelock because of the Exchange service ... Disabled google sync, then reenabled it 2 hours later, and no problem ... It gets stuck somehow sometimes ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LocutusEstBorg:
I had the same problem on my SGS2 on ICS. I finally had no choice but to migrate my email to Google Apps. In the end it was the best decision since the Archive function on the GMail app is amazing and it simply works 10x better than any Exchange ActiveSync client.

The Google Apps connector for Outlook also works almost as well as Exchange Server.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dantexaiver:
cant seem to play videos over wifi on my 10.1tab with out the videos either lagging or not even to want to load at all. trying to watch xvids and x264 encoded movies on my network via File manager HD and mobo player. Is there a solution for this?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rumpleforeskin:
first try copying the files to your tab and see if it plays, that way you can determin if its the network or file format causing trouble.

If it is network are you sure you have enough bandwidth?

ensure that "multicast stream" is enabled on your router if it supports it!

use something like wifi scanner to determin that your wifi is operating on the "cleanest" channel available to you

Im not sure how "file manager HD" accesses shares, samba prehaps?

Has anyone experience the flipped screen?

it happens when the screen awake from sleep, but not all the time. I don't know what causing this, it seems to happen randomly, I tried different holding positions even upright when awaking the screen, it still flipped. Once it is flipped, either activate screen capture or reboot the phone will correct the problem.

anyone have idea what is happening on my phone? Screen capture files start piling up in my note's storage....:(

oh.... the touch on screen is also flipped as well; touch on the left side, appeared on the right....

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hchxoom:
Check the sgs2 threads... I can't remember for sure,but think this results from a combination of certain tweaks in custom roms (fancy rotations and crt on or off, maybe?).

Do you have CRT ON selected in JKay settings? Or have you enabled via some other workaround?

It is a well known cause of mirroring after turning the screen on and all you have to do to get rid of it is switch it off in JKay Deluxe settings.

Qisda is the ODM for all the 2nd gen dell devices, they're responsible for the drivers and validating OS versions for WP7 devices (the VP) and for making the roms and drivers for android devices (S5, S7, V)

Contacting them wont get you anything as the contract between dell and qisda is 'private' as in they have not officially ever announced that they produced them for dell. You wont get anything at all out of them as it would likely be a breach of contract or something if they start being all public about it. (just as much since supporting isnt in their contract, why would they? they are literally not getting paid to support it, at least with regards to user support)

So long story short, I wipe data, update my room and boot up, run Titanium Backup and everything's back to normal...

Just curious, is there any awesome way of storing this info and restoring it after an upgrade? It's always the part of the rom change that is annoying and tedius. Maybe I'm just being way too lazy and someone will tell me to suck it up. I don't know. I figured I'd ask what other people do for this.
