    My HTC ONE XL screen would not respond no matter what I tried. I went to switch it off again, then noticed the option to restart. This warned that this would close all apps etc. Once I pressed RESTART

          i have a beautiful samsung s3 with a working touchscreen and i find it absolutely hilarious how people who possess the HTC SENSATION XL have to deal with such an error.... Perhaps HTC should change its name to HMS: HAPPY MAN SOON!

              I understand this is very old thread but I have the same problem with my sensation xe, has anyone found a permanent fix to this yet? At the moment my phone freezes completely and taking the battery out doesn't fix it, also the date changes itself to 2/1/1970 (weird right?), plugging it in to my computer however completely fixes it for a limited time which at the moment is around 24hrs but it is still really inconvenient if you're out and about, hope someone can help

                    My Sensation has now developed erratic responses to touch input. This is in addition to a camera blur fault. Third handset in 16 months....

                        hey guys,
                        i am using HTC Incredible S and i have problem more than this in touchscreen. i hope its some software related issue coz sometimes it works and sometimes not. if that was a HW prob. it should not work permanently. but it works occasionally. its too strange...... please help for this problem.

                            Hi, I need some help and advise. My HTC Sensation XL keeps on freezing after about 5 seconds / mins i dont used it. The only way i can get the phone to work is by taking out the battery and putting it back in and also when i charge it through my laptop. If i am using it does not freeze, but as soon as i stop using it it freezes.

                                      My HTC Sensation is doing exactly the same - I tried to get to the bottom of it, and checked that the earth pin inside is making good contact with the case, which it is, and then turned on the show touches option in the Develop option - this shows that the screen is sensing 3 or more phantom touches when it is suffering from this problem - it looks to me like a software issue, as pressing the lock button twice often clears it

                                        My HTC sensation touchscreen is freezing when I try to end a call resulting in me getting charged for 2 to 3 minutes more than I should be. I sometimes have to switch the phone off to end a call...it is very frustrating and costly...what are my options??
