Senstaion Keeps Turning off?

[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

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

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:

Anyway, i disabled it since yesterday.
Everything fine so far.

Just had a random restart, the first one since I disabled old sense.

ARHD 7.3 stock kernel.

Had a couple more today.
Don't think disabling old htc sense does the trick bro

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.

 

[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)

My brother has this problem as well. If you find a fix please tell me.

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.

A friend of mine just started having this issue, after upgrading ROM.

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

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.

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

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.

 

[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.

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 :-\
