I can use ADB and go to 4ext Recovery and there touchscreen is working.

wiping, flashing several roms and firmwares
I've been cleaning, wiping, superwiping and flashing over and over, but so far it was useless.. whatever ics rom i use touchscreen wount work, but in 4ext recovery touchscreen is working very well!

im not good with hardware stuff but try the following things:

firmware 3.24/3.25 and install ARHD 6.2.1 doesnt work?
firmware 1.17/3.12 and install ARHD 4.1.13 doesnt work?
it is a hardware fault and you need to make it s-on and factory reset and bring it to htc and ask for a replacment

firmware: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
s-on (end of the post): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300

ARHD 4.1.13 with 3.12 firmware and radio 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2

now everything is working :)

so i can use only gingerbread roms with firmware 3.12 or lower...

i tested with 3.12 firmware some older ICS like InsertCoin 4.3.2, but no luck, i tried multiple kernels also.. clocked and stock kernels.. i tried before many 3.24 fw and 3.24 fw based roms.

i cant use ICS roms :( touchscreen wount work with ICS roms :confused:

when i flash back to gingerbread everything is just ok, can use even clocked kernel with no issues

i dont understund what is your problem, is it with touchscreen like i had?

actually my touchscreen working very well, just touchscreen wount work with ICS roms.

so if you have same problems, then easy solution is to use 3.12 fw and some gingerbread rom.

im looking forward to have ICS rom working, so far no luck

You should let him know that eventually in GB it won't work anymore either. I wonder what is causing the TSD to burn out, or not work.

Yes, my touchscreen digitizer has died completely. It wasn't responding even in gingerbread a couple of days after having the ICS issue.

Zorroh let us know what happens with yours.

Good luck

This is definitely one of the weirdest things ever ... new fw, new drivers and still not working. How come is that related to the OS?

Hi Guys,
I had the same issues with the tochscreen not responding. I tryed different firmwares and roms but the tochscreen did not work at all.
Now I'am back on Gingerbread and Hboot 1.17 everything works again.
Strange, hope the Problem would be fixed. but i don't think so. Nobody elese seems to have that problem.
Anyway thanks for your support.

i have the same problem, but my problems got bigger.

i never did something to my sensation xe before.

I received from HTC OTA ICS. So i installed it. After it was done, i can move my lockring, but when i release it, my phone hangs. Same problem with simcard insert. I can touch a number and then the phone hangs.

After this i got some help and i unlocked my phone with htc dev unlock. Installed 4ext. With 4 ext my touchscreen works as a charme.

Installed ARHD 6... and rebooted. Same problem, can touch 1 time and then phone hangs.

My biggest problem now is that i have HBoot 1.27. I need to downgrade Hboot to install gingerbread again, witch worked fine before.

Can anyone help me with this?? Is it already possible to s-off and go back to Hboot 1.17??:confused:

Problem Solved

i got the ICS on my phone today! and touchscreen working!

i tried several roms with right firmwares etc but nothing and now i finally tried stock recovery:
http://vi8.info/HTC-Sensation/Stock-Recovery/

i used this rom package: PG58IMG.zip Full hTC Stock RUU 3.33.401.6 (All-in-1-ZIP-ICS) , i placed it into sd card and rebooted to bootloader, there you need to flash it like firmware and it updates everything.

so, now i have ICS and now probally i need to root it again.

problem solved! :D
