Hi.
I have a htc sensation.
Rom: vipers 3.1.4
S-ON
My touchscreen sometimes doesnt work, but if i turn off my screen(lock my screen), and turn it back on, it works.
Is this rom problem or touchscreen problem?
Thanks!

are you sure that you already flashing boot.img from the rom itself..?
what about if you tried installing another rom..?, is the problem still there ..?
if problem still there..so it can be your phone hardware had problem, but if not..then that's the problem come from the rom indeed

i mean if you're phone bootloader just had unlocked but still S-ON..so you must flashing boot.img too that are extracted from the rom.zip that you already installed..

you pc must already had ADB / SDK...if not..you can download from here.. or minimal adb and fastboot from here..

1. extract the rom.zip that you already installing...and copied boot.img from there to adb / sdk folder on your pc
2. turn on your phone with pressing and hold volume down + power button until inside bootloader...then select FASTBOOT mode..
3. connect your phone to pc via usb...then open cmd and change source to your adb / sdk that fastboot.exe placed folder..then type "fastboot devices" enter (to check first that your phone already connected) if success connected that will be prompt your phone serial number
4. then continued typing "fastboot flash boot boot.img" enter
5. after finish..typing "fastbot reboot" enter
6. done..
all command type without quote

hope this can help..

So i bought this phone ~2 months ago. I had sense 5 on it. 4ext recovery. And i saw, that it was on S-on.
Than i wanted to try out vipers 3.1.4. I downloaded the rom. putted on my sd card, reboted to 4ext recovery, enabled smartflash. than wiped, and installed the rom. it was great until one morning when the touch kept freezing, and i needed to lock the screen and turn it back on to work.
Today i will install sense 5 again and doing the same thing that i did with 3.1.4.Am i doing something wrong?
And i need to do what are u saying after rom instalation or ? On my pc there isn't adb/sdk.
Sorry but i'm new to android. I was an iphone user.

IF you already using 4ext recovery and enabling smartflash then...you don't needed to flashing boot.img again with manual way..
my guide in the previously post..just if you using another custom recovery like TWRP or CWM and already forget it to flashing boot.img manually form fastboot

so..this you're already do the right step...just try installing ViperS 5.0 again from 4ext recovery..then..your phone will back to normal again..:good:
