are you on custom rom? or stock? maybe something in build.prop has changed (or I'am talking nonsens) that does not recognize lower that 1.0A

I charge my p500 with original and 2 other samsung wall charger and nothing had happened. Try reinstalling rom after a complete wipe(includind system from mounts) and give it a try again before replace battery
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunoloule:

I will try reinstal my ROM.

Thanks for the advice!

Did re install worked ?
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunoloule:
No. It did not worked.

I sold it.

It was a nice partner.

I bought a Samsung Galaxy S3.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtk217:
Hello, I have a red lens defy which is 2 yrs old.

as all li-on batteries mine too has started degrading so recently i bought a new one made by nohon (model bf5x).

the battery is great and works excellent for long periods (almost 2 days of average+ use).

unfortunately the phone itself gives out bad read outs. meaning that after about 12 hours of use ill be left with 1% even though the battery itself continues to serve me for at least another 24 hours.

that is unfortunate because i can never know for sure what is my battery percentage.

i was wandering (as a software developer) whether or not i can create a custom driver to replace to current provided one so that it will report the correct percentage of the battery.

I'll be glad to be referenced to some documentation and be given some general direction of where to start at.

Thanks for everyone who will reply and help.
[HTC One X] excorcist:
Hello dear xda community

I would like to share with you my experience with HTC ONE X.

I've bought it last June through Telenor (mobile provider in Serbia), and a month after yellow dots started appearing on the bottom of the screen. I've took it to the shop where I'd bought it and after two weeks I've got it fixed.

Than, after a while, screen started flickering, took it again to repair center and they had it fixed.

Then yellow dots reappeared, took it again to repair center and they had it fixed again.

Than, in December, I broke my screen and repaired it for 150 euro.

Then, my phone stared to restart with no apparent reason, and was getting into dead loop of restarts and freezing during boot. Got it to service and waited for more than a month to have it repaired. On service report it was written that PBA was replaced, I think it is motherboard.

That, two months after that, my WLAN reception got weaker and I could hear electronic sparks from headset in the phone.

Got it to the repair center and requested to have it replaced, was denied, and had my phone returned to me with fixed WLAN but they claimed that there was no electronic sparks that could be heard or detected.

I've shown this problem to numerous people and everyone could hear it.

Took it again to service, requested replacement, waited for three weeks and received phone without any repairs.

I've also visited unofficial service just to have it checked without opening the phone since it would void my warranty and they informed me that it most likely problem with solder and that mainboard is bad. I've told them that the mainboard was already replaced but they told me that IMEI numbers on contract and in phone are the same and that my mainboard most likely was not replaced at all.

Is IMEI written on new mainboard from old one?

Was this a fraud from official htc repair center?

I'm planning on suing Telenor for selling such a low quality phone but I need info on IMEIs as well

Thanks in advance.
[HTC One X] ll_r1d0_ll:
if your motherboard is changed then the IMEI number should also change if it isnt thn your motherboard isnt replaced its still the old one
[HTC One X] excorcist:
htc support support told me first that there should be new IMEI, but today they told me old IMEI is written to new board, and that is only done that way for HTC ONE X.

I think that they are lying to save their hides.
[HTC One X] ll_r1d0_ll:
i think so because they cant write another board's IMEI to your board's IMEI it isnt possible until they make a new board specially for your mobile :/
[HTC One X] excorcist:
thank you ll_r1d0_ll

I was pretty sure about that but I had to check.

Never been so pissed off in my life, I had terrible experience with my phone.

I cannot believe official htc support would lie to me. :(
[HTC One X] ll_r1d0_ll:
your always welcome :) sue them :P
[HTC One X] excorcist:
do you think I've got some chance to do anything? But this is definitely a fraud
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
Ouch, HTC are actually well known for lets say "fibbing". They we're caught out replacing the SLCD2 displays out for Generic LCD when sent in for replacement.

Keep your eyes peeled when you send your device to HTC !
[HTC One X] excorcist:
I was not aware that official HTC repair center has a tendency to put bad parts or to lie about repairs. I am truly disappointed with HTC as brand, that is absolutely terrible IMHO
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
Official HTC repair center can replace imei with s-off....they have the right tools for that :D and official HTC center isn't putting back bad parts a repair center certificated for HTC phones could do that like it was with me....

[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
Yeah join the club, that why my next device isn't HTC. Had HTC phones for what, 4 years? No more...
[HTC One X] rafu997:
I've had mainboard replaced twice. Always new IMEI. Now I'm fighting for another replacement of mainboard but I have "relocked" status in hboot and it's hard to convince them that my issue was not coused by unlocking bootloader
[HTC One X] Vladonexxx:
At least your Hox is getting fixed.. I've sent mine in for service bc of the yellow spots (seems like every single one is getting them) and they sent it back w a new screen but with a small crack in the housing.

After 2 weeks the phone restarted in bootloader with onboard memory fried.. sent it back in for replacement bc housing, motherboard and screen (new screen issues) needed exchanging and I was not willing to accept a fully romanian built htc. They held on to it of 3 weeks (15 days max stated in the contract) then sent it back with no repairs stating that they can't get the parts.

Then they had no new HOX to replace it with so the only solution they found was to storno it and dissolve the contract. This made me lose almost a year of high priced contract payments because of them.

Now I'm signing a new 2 year contract for a note2.. not my first choice but it's the only one I can get for the same price except for the S3 which would be a step down imo and I'm not willing to pay extra because of their incompetence.

This is what working with Orange Romania and HTC is really like so BEWARE
[HTC Sensation] XR33:
Phone keep randomly turning off, even with a full charge? Tried different Roms, but nothing changes? New battery doesn't do the trick? Me too, until I found a post on a Vodaphone site that said that multiple copies of HTC Sense was to blame, and that if you go into SETTINGS, then APPS, then select the ALL tab, scroll down to HTC SENSE and Disable the oldest one, then reboot, all my problems would be solved.....

And they have :)

Hope this helps somebody else and hope it's easier to find than the original post ;)
[HTC Sensation] Shredz98:
Another thing that may be the culprit is that the battery is not connecting to the pins correctly. In which case a piece of paper can do the trick! Just lodge it above the battery so that it presses it firmly down onto the pins and you should see no more reboots!

Did the trick for me on several occasions :)
[HTC Sensation] XR33:
Did the pack the battery thing at first, and it did seem to work until I upgraded the battery to an Anker.....

Also, ROFL at my spelling mistake in the title. Was definately meant to say Sensation :nod:
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Disabled it, see how it works.

Can you link to the original post on the Vodafone site?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] XR33:
Took some finding the second time round too lol - http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/HTC/HTC-Sensation-crashing-constantly/td-p/1163449

Post 9 :thumbs:
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Anyway, i disabled it since yesterday.

Everything fine so far.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Just had a random restart, the first one since I disabled old sense.

ARHD 7.3 stock kernel.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Had a couple more today.

Don't think disabling old htc sense does the trick bro
[HTC Sensation] XR33:
:(

Only had two shutdowns in the last week and both those were after long gaming sessions in the mornings. That's quite an improvement compared to the 7 or 8 I was getting a day. Sorry it hasn't worked for you though.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Had a few more today too.

I am desperate and willing to try anything.

Maybe, I'll enable it and compare to how it was before.

I should probably get another phone (one S, one mini)
[HTC Sensation] Falco33:
My brother has this problem as well. If you find a fix please tell me. :)
[HTC Sensation] kwaku85:
Randomly restarting of Sensation it's Snapdragon problem, not software. Sometime it's PowerManager IC problem, but then You should see problem with battery level. Once- it's full, and while ago -almost empty etc. Same problem is with Amaze 4G and other with same CPU.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
A friend of mine just started having this issue, after upgrading ROM.
[HTC Sensation] mymeatb18:
My wife's used to have constant reboots daily, stock, rooted,then soff. All rebooted. Then I tried flashing in a certain order the worked with no more reboots.

1.full wipe

2.flash firmware(only once of course)

3.boot into recovery full wipe

4.flash rom
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
I only flash ROM, as I don't need to flash firmware every time.

I like ARHD ROMs. It happens even when I do full wipe and it laso started happening to a friend, who didn't have this problem before, same ROM as me.
[HTC Sensation] Falco33:
Anyway to fix this?
[HTC Sensation] mymeatb18:
My post says to only flash firmware once but if u flash firmware then go back to recovery you'll notice it has an error mounting a partition and to perform full wipe. Also phone doesn't boot until wiping cache and dalvik. I'm just saayong what worked for me when I thought all was lost and tried every ROM
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
I tried wiping cache and dalvik without any benefit regarding restarts/turn-offs.

Anyway, depending on the ROM I am using, sometimes I get random restarts, sometimes turn offs.
[HTC Sensation] mymeatb18:
Well I suggest trying the method I posted. I know sounds like it won't do much but I'm I'm telling u I had reboots like crazy everyday and once I flashed in that order it stopped COMPLETLY. So make a back up and try to start all over with firmware and everything.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
OK, I will try that.

Anyway, I was on stock kernel and now I just flashed SebastianFM, see how this works, better or worse.

I'm also thinking about trying another ROM.

//LE: with SebastianFM's Overclocked Kernel, I already had a few restarts :-\
[HTC Sensation] TheLnxDrd:
Thanks

I Had the same problem and now i have fixed it!
[HTC Sensation] imran429:
I think what the guy is saying about power manager is correct as my batteries level fluctuates, at one point itll be 80 then when it freezes and i reboot it drops to 60 :(

any help on this one :confused:
[HTC Sensation] Gatosbil:
I agree with mymeatb18.Perform a full wipe from recovery itself or using some wipe script and reflash your rom.

As a second choice you could flash a stock RUU and see if this makes the things better.

---------- Post added at 03:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:39 AM ----------

If the problem is some battery indication you always can try to delete battery stats for start.If you have a second power manager maybe causes compications.

An other reason that your phone reboots maybe is because of some wrong kernel modales (uv21 e.t.c).Usually it happens after flashing new kernel without to clean kernel init.d folder.

I can't think something else now.I hope I helped you.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
delete battery stats is just a myth
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
I flashed ViperS 1.6.3 and used it for a day.

I had 2 turn offs all day yesterday.

It also comes with new kernel, did a full wipe before installing.

It's not great 2 turn offs, but it's better.

I'm also thinking of trying the latest stock ROM for sensation, but I'll try a few ROMs before.

I'm also thinking more and more about getting another phone.
[HTC Sensation] Gatosbil:
I had some problem too with ViperS 1.6.3 (Not force shutdowns or reboots but It was a little bit stucky).When I flashed the latest firmware from Revolution HD topic I the ViperS had less lags than before.

You can download the latest firmware from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1412618

Right now the latest firmware is "Firmware from 3.33.401.6 & 3.33.401.106 RUU".(It has Hboot 1.29.0000)

Flash the lastest fimware and reflash your rom if it is nessesary making a full wipe first.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:55 PM ----------

Why you don't try a Jelly Bean rom instead of ICS.ViperS 3.1.1 JB is a fantastic rom for Sensation.I have it installed 2 weeks now and I can say it is the most incredible rom I have use!It has a great stock kernel (SebastianFM-1.0.1) but the only disadvantage is that it hasn't Sweep2Wake support yet.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
I just did that, see how this works. Didn't reflash ROM.

Maybe I'll try that too.

My problem doesn't seem to be related to the ROM, maybe it's the radio, maybe it's my phone
[HTC Sensation] Maximus999:
I gave my old Sensation to my gf recently and I found the same problems while I had it. After about two to three months of running a ROM (either Bruce's 4.1.2 or Albinoman's 4.2.2) it would just randomly start turning off a lot. I found the only way to fix it was to do a full wipe and restore from a nandroid backup or flash clean to a stable ROM. Then it would be fine for a few months. Tried the paper in the battery compartment which didn't help and obviously the AOSP ROMs don't have Sense so that wasn't a problem anyway.

I just think what it boils down to is that the Sensation isn't a very good phone. Now that I use a ZL with FXP I never have any issues with random reboots or the phone turning off, and I'm not blaming Bruce or Albinoman, they both did great work in making the Sensation usable for me, but neither were able to overcome HTC's poor quality phone and device firmware.

Honestly, if you guys still have a Sensation I would honestly recommend getting a new phone. I was always so frustrated with my Sensation not working properly, turning off all the time, and with HTC's awful software support leaving the official software on 4.0.3 and not updating the device firmware. Now I have the latest 3.4 Kernel and a very stable 4.2.2 build from FXP, and the ability to just go back to stock firmware using flashtool.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
So, I flashed the latest firmware, the latest radio and ViperS 3.1.1.

Already had a random restart. oO
[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:
Just my input here. I suffered from this for many months, sometimes have a reboot every time I turned on the phone for 1 hour periods. I looked at every angle I could find, from the kernels in roms, to aosp vs sense, gingerbread vs ics vs jb. I tried the paper trick and all the firmware I could. I noticed I had the battery % fluctuations and my phone would power off sometimes when connecting to a network, when constant turning off booting into aeroplane mode without the SIM would fix this and phone would boot right away, no issues. So I replaced my SIM card but my problem was not solved. For the last week or so I have not had a single reboot, and I achieved this by simply reverting back to my stock HTC battery. Now I'm not 100% sure if it was my anker battery that was the problem, for a long time it served me well. But I haven't had a reboot/power down since, and I'm now rocking sebastians jb Rom with no issues.

So as I said, just my chip in, make of it what you will :) I will update this in a month to say if all is still working well :)

[HTC Sensation] OllieArmageddon:
It's simple, had the problem on mine. It's undervolting. After a while the chip cannot handle as low of a voltage, starts to freeze when a heavy task suddenly gets put onto it while there's other back ground tasks. As Roms get more bloated as the months go by the cpu is under more load. If I played a game a text would often crash the phone.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
My first battery didn't last till lunch, so I don't think I'll be able to use that. My second battery was also htc, was good at first and after 6 months also didn't last that much. My third and current battery (Momax x-level) seems ok so far. Also, not sure what is to blame for restarts. Maybe phone/motherboard, maybe battery, maybe ROM.

If i get another phone, I'll have other problems. :)

[/COLOR]

How can I check and modify if I want the voltage?

What would be normal values? I'm willing to have higher voltage and lower battery life, but more stability.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
you can use system tuner or kernel tuner to adjust voltage values if you know how much
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Is there a list with the voltages for different frequencies?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
yeap

in those apps you will see for every freq and the analog voltage

and you can adjust them seperately if you want
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Tried kernel tuner, but I didn't figure out how to use it.

Anyway, sometimes 2 days pass without any restart/turn-off, sometimes I get 5-6+ in a day.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
go to voltage tab

there you can adjust every bar for its freq
[HTC Sensation] AT B-S:
CPU problem ??

I had that to last year. Got 2 boardswaps and than the phone started to FC (HTC WhiteScreenOfDeath) after using the browser for half an hour or so.

I installed OSmonitor and CPU-Z and found the CPU only had 1 functioning core Core0, Core1 was death.

After i did a RMA HTC swapped my phone for a new one, first thing i did was install CPU-Z an OSmonitor again.

This "new" phone also had the same problem Core0 worked Core1 was death.

Now HTC don't want to give me another phone only repair my phone. How can they repair a productionflaw of the Qualcomm CPU ?????
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Both cores are active for me.
[HTC Sensation] Nicx59:
Could this be the reason why my HTC Sensation XE randomly re-boots while using OnDemand governor, but with Userspace governor it doesn't get any re-boots?

The OnDemand gives too low voltage maybe?

I don't know very much of these yet. Still trying to learn more about HTC Sensations :P
[HTC Sensation] OllieArmageddon:
Yes. OnDemand spikes the CPU frequency when any stress is put on it. With a voltage too low it won't handle the sudden spike well. Userspace I believe always gives you CPU headroom, so theres no sudden spikes.

I know this from PC overclocking. If I want a lower voltage I have to turn off power saving features which make it clock down.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Just changed governor to userpace.

See if this was causing the restarts/turn-offs

//LE: already had one restart.. :-\

//LE2: had a few more restarts, some right after finishing a call and also had one with everything disabled (WiFi, sync, 3g data, gps)

Pretty sure it wasn't the governor causing this.
[HTC Sensation] Nicx59:
Right on; that's the same problem I had with ViperS 3.1.1.

Just flash the kernel manually! Using fastboot or such.

Tutorial here. (Scroll down, find the ''Extra 1: Flashing boot.img'')

It works.

(If re-boots occur after this, try different governors. Userspace is stable for me..)
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
But I had this problem with different ROMs (and different kernels)

I will flash the kernel again.

Yesterday I had a lot of restarts. This morning 2 already.

Done flashing kernel.
[HTC Sensation] Nicx59:
Still randomly re-booting?

Damn :/

Then you better ask Ivicask or rzr86.. Or anyone who is smarter than me :D

Is it a battery problem then?

Is the battery correctly in the slot? You may wanna try to put a piece of cardboard or something so it the battery won't budge.
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
The battery is fine, a momax x-level, about 6 months old. All the contacts are clean, I put some duct tape on the opposite side of the battery pins so I can't even pull it out by hand.

After I re-flashed kernel, I think I had one more restart, not sure, because I left the phone on desk and when I came back, it seemed a little slow, as if it just restarted and apps were still loading.

Anyway, I'll wait a few days and see how it is.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
make sure that the battery is completely fine

becasue you have reboots with a lot of roms and kernels

tell me also what recovery are you using?

did you try wipe dalvik+cache too?

fix permissions from recovery?

i can't think something else now:(
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
4EXT recovery touch v.1.0.0.5 RC9

Did a full wipe, also wiped dalvik+cache after restart and also fix perms a lot of times.

No help :(
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
A couple of days passed by and everything seemed fine, till today I had a random turnoff in the middle of a call.
[HTC Sensation] XR33:
Out of interest, does everyone else use Titanium Backup? I get it to back up everything, so I guess it reloads everything, including old copies of system files too? Would explain why I have duplicates of HTC Sense, Weather etc. Mine is still turning off occasionally, but not so badly that I feel the need to buy a new phone (as I did last month lol).
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
I've been using ViperS 3.1.2 for a while now and I must say, I haven't had a problem since.

Zero turn offs, zero restarts!

I was beginning to think that the phone was faulty.
[HTC Sensation] rivalas:
i have the same problem as you, ViperS 3.1.2 won't fix your problem, it will start turning off again.... i have lost hope for fixing this ...
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
Just noticed the phone was turned-off. :(

First time since I upgraded to 3.1.2 [about 2 weeks ago, when it came out, came from 3.1.1]

I really hoped it was a software problem and this ROM fixed that.

I am thinking about upgrading to One X.
[HTC Sensation] XR33:
I eventually solved my problem by getting a Samsung S4 :( :) :(
[HTC Sensation] mardum:
I don\t like Samsung and TouchWiz.

For now, I want to stick to htc.

Anyway, a turn-off every couple of weeks is acceptable. :good:

Especially after having 5-10 daily.
[HTC Sensation] XR33:
Just a quick update, since I gave my Sensation to the Mrs, she has had no problems with it. Admittedly, this was on a fresh install of Viper 1.6.3. , but I don't think the choice of Rom would have made any difference..... I still think that, for me. there may have been a conflicting program that was being re-loaded by Titanium Backup. Fresh install, different apps and no restarts for a month and a half.
[HTC Sensation] erikjanssen:
A new battery, a full wipe and ViperS did the trick for me.

The battery was swollen (almost twice as large) thus not a exaggerated decision to buy a new one.

No random reboots since a couple of months!
[HTC Sensation] IcyT:
I had the same problem too. Got to a point where I couldn't even type my pin code before the phone rebooted again. Solved it by buying a new battery.
