[Q] Can't turn screen back on after hitting the power button in the camera app

[edwardblum]

This is doing my head in to the point I have borrowed a new HTC Sensation only to find the problem exists on this phone also.

When using the Camera App If I hit the power button the screen turns off. I am then unable to switch the screen back on - It appears the phone crashes.
Behaviour some times differs depending whether I have taken a photo or not.

The following behaviour is observed:

The lights stay illuminate on the soft keys at the bottom of the screen.
The phone can receive calls how ever it doesn't ring and I unable to answer them.


This problem is confirmed on 2 seperate devices which have been flashed with:

Android Revolution HD 3.6.12

10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 radio

I have also run super wipe on the phone before installing the HD Rom.


Please help!?

Having the same issues on both mine and my wives phones, both running AR 3.6.11 along with lag and other issues! Pretty fed up - and considering a different ROM. How is the ICS ROM, any issues like the 3.6.11? Is it hard to install?

I would try Elegancia ICS. Maybe a little pain to install, if you need to update your firmware.

Have a read of the last 10 pages or so of the ICS thread for superCID info if your stuck, but it is easy.

I will give it a try! Do you just download the zip firmware and flash it?

It's not a rom problem, it is faux's kernel problem.
You can flash bricked kernel to solve.

Put the img zip directly on the SD card, not in any folder.
Boot the phone in to bootloader Power on volume down same time.
Just follow the instructions.
DO NOT POWER OFF REMOVE BATTERY ETC.
You will have to remove file from memory card before rebooting.

If you fail with the upload, then you will have to superCID
