[Q] Root without Volume Buttons - HTC Sensation XL

Hey guys, im new here.
Short story:
I would like to root my sens.XL but i dont have any volume buttons and there is no possibilty to repair them (atm).
So is there any solution? I found some old topics about this issue but they were outdatet or about other phones.
I have adb working if it helps.
Thank you very much for every information.

Hi
why there is no possibility to repair them?

[Q] Can't enter bootloader anymore!

Hi guys,
today I (again) used Task29 because the phone behaved strange (didn't find certain files anymore....again).
But this time its quite different. After finishing Task29 I wanted to enter the bootloader to flash the rom from my sd-card (\kovsimg.nbh)....but it won't start holding vol-down + power!!!
It does start normally, but hangs (due to no rom) at sony ericsson logo.
I can do hard reset, but as no rom is on the internal mem, it doesn't have any effect.
I need the bootloader, but it simply doesn't react on the key combo!
Has somebody got any idea?
I mean, it can't be bricked as everything else works like it should, right??
I have OliNex 0.72 since last couple of rom-flashes (~6). Been doing this for a while now....but each time successfully.
Please give me some feedback!
Thank you!
greets,

the problem maybe on your Volume down hardware botton... try to reassamble the x1 and try to change the volume down hardware.. but you must have skill to soldering the hardware.. if you doesnt have the skill just go to phone service.. to change the volume down hardware...

Thanks for your reply!
But then it would act as if I'd push only the power button, right? And the Vol-Down button worked before that.
It simply doesn't react by using this key combo.
If I press power button alone, it switches on normally.
Any idea how to solve that?? Please help!
After some research it looks like I would need a Jtag box and adapter for the X1 plus any Jtag-Software to get a new bootloader onto the phone. This will be prolly around 250€ all together.
...so I'd say my beloved X1 is finally (after almost 2 years of usage and flashing fun) bricked.
I don't know how this happened but i am facing the truth right now.
Only way to revive it: Does anyone know a repair-shop in/ close to Munich which has the equipment??

Thanks for your reply!
But first linked thread implies that you can enter the os.
Second one uses cam-button instead of vol-down button, but thats not my problem as my vol-down button is working.
But this confirms that my problem really is the bootloader itself.
So, no luck so far.
Thanks for your help anyway!
fastboot not an option? or has SE that not?(download mode ect)
edit: forget that its an x1. and not an x10. sorry my fault

[Q] Software or Hardware problem? Help pls! :)

Hey guys so recently I've been having a permanent glitch on my phone. To be accurate, I just started realize this problem yesterday and it got a bit more serious today. It's like this:-
About 1.3cm from the search button softkey, my phone is not able to be touched. As in the screen touch doesn't work. I can't press the backspace key ( when I'm on cyanogenmod or IceCold ) and I can't press the enter key ( When I'm on Nik's ). When I go to Note ( I'm still on Nik's ) and I start to draw something, I can't draw all the way to the bottom of the page, it stops 1.3 cm away from the softkeys. It's that whole horizontal line of " unsensitive touch ". But I can still unlock my phone ( htc's ring lock ) tho I need to do it quick or I'd have to try again.
I tries flashing different ROMs but the problem persists. It's getting a little fustrating and I'm on wits end here on how to fix it. Have anyone had this problem before?
touch screen issue
Hi
i had the same problem, but with my sony ericsson satio. i didn't get it serviced or checked, but sold it off while buying a new phone.
i believe the issue is a touch-screen malfunction since multiple roms you have installed are unable to resolve the issue.
try taking it to a service center to flash the firmware. perhaps the touchscreen needs replacement.
hope this helps.
-f.
@farhadrarapore whatttt Nooo I was hoping no one would give me that answer.. Thanks a lot btw for the reply.. I guess I have to sell it then :''''(
Sounds like a hardware problem to me , but first take it to a GSM repair shop maybe its cheaper than to sell the whole thing and buy a new one...

[Q] Fixing hardware buttons on Galaxy S

Hi all,
1st of all, I'd like to apologise for a 'newbie' not well formulated post. I'm trying by best.
I have an old Samsung Galaxy S, which is in a perfect shape from a hardware point of view, but has a software glitch. Long time ago, when trying to fix a back button lag, I managed to make menu and back buttons unusable (home does work). So I have an iPhone
I don't remember exactly how I did it, but it was not a rom problem, there was a code to upgrade screen firmware or something like that. Custom roms don't help, but I know the hardware is OK.
Can somebody please suggest a way forward to fix (if possible at all). Even keywords to Google would help.
Thanks
I don't have any knowledge of fixing hardware buttons. But installing "soft buttons" to replace them is one solution.
You can install Custom Roms with NavBar feature like JB C-Rom Mix.

[q] help! Htc one on qhsusb_dload mode

Hi Guys, I need help on my HTC One. I decided to join this forum to ask for help from you guys. I am no android nor a pc techie which makes me a newbie when it comes to terms and everything technical, so I have to say sorry if I don't get or understand your terms on your replies.
Here's the problem. MY HTC ONE WENT DEAD! My phone is updating it's applications that time and then suddenly the screen freezes and eventually went off. After that it won't turn on or even respond to a hard reset(power button + volume buttons). Wall charging it or even plugging it to a PC doesn't make the notification led turn on. But i do notice that when i plug it to the PC it cannot install the device so I take a look on the device manager and the device name of my unit is "QHSUSB_DLOAD". I googled it up and other forums says that its a problem on the motherboard and it's on a hardbricked state. I've done a lot of searching and stuffs but I cannot find a forum thread that will specifically fix HTC One(because i think that cure/solution only applies to a specific unit). I've seen them unbrick other HTC units but not the HTC One. I know the easiest solution is to bring it back to a HTC service center but I think that's gonna cost me big bucks knowing that it's a motherboard problem.
So guys, with all my heart I beg you, If you know a solution or any thread that discusses the same problem as mine, Please Help me T_T.

You sir are screwed. Your HTC One is bricked & I don't believe it is fixable. There might be one thing to attempt but since you are not a techie, it would be very difficult to try. It need to go to a repair facility.

Home & back button stopped working

I'm running SLICK s422 ROW on a 2 1/2 week old K3 Note & suddenly my home & back buttons have stopped working. Strangely the menu button still works fine. I'm having to use on screen software buttons to navigate. Has anyone else here had this problem, or a possible fix? I've seen a few reports on the internet of others with exactly the same fault.
I had the handset shipped to the UK from China, so don't suppose I'll be covered by any kind of warranty.
I've tried rebooting into recovery mode & don't feel any haptic feedback when I press them either, so I don't think it's the ROM.
The buttons have started working again!? I pulled the battery to stick a 2nd sim card in & they sprung to life. I did try pulling the battery out before, without success. I'm not complaining, but it is very strange.
hi I have the same problem since this morning. Only left side button work. But when the screen is locked i can start camera and move padlock on screen so buttons are working. After screen unlock they stop to work. Any solution please. Reset and pulling out battery doesn't work.

Hi, I run in trouble with the same. Only menu button works, I got this phone from China as k50-t3s and played around with k50-t5 and Indian Rom. Is there any solution meanwhile

did you modified a factory t3s and then it stopped working?
So there may be an issue with using different chargers with this phone that causes this problem. I only experience this after I've used one my other chargers to charge the phone
FIX?
Note this is just a temporary fix. Like Sandancer75 mentioned, simply remove the battery from the phone for a few seconds and try again. The response on presses after requires a little more effort but atleast it got the buttons working again

Home and back buttons​ not working

Same problem
Does changing the ROM help?
Hey kdobrev,
Thanks for your reply,
I've tried 3 different roms but no success.
Regards
I've got the same problem, changed the bootlogger, the ROM... you name it but no use. Now I've just replaced a cracked screen and now the navigation keys are working again. I wouldn't advise anyone to change the screen if they haven't some experience - The K3-Note screen is a bit of a bugger to replace.
That's a bummer, but thanks for the reply!:good:
Regards
Hi
