Yes and Yes....im seriously stumped !

the only thing i can think is that theres some sort of wifi radio issue on my phone , but id have thought that would manifest by not connecting to the network rather than not pulling in data .

ive factory reset phone a couple of times and reset my router, no issues on other devices

think ill go back to the store for exchange as im not really prepared and shouldnt have to piss around with a brand new device

its a weird one
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
Have you tried changing the channel of your router? Try a lower number, like 11. Or temporarily removing any encryption and/or changing encryption type?
[HTC Sensation] kfgtboypsp:
Did u try resetting your router? I had the same problem last night. Taught it was my phone. Ended up being my router. Go figure ;-p
[HTC Sensation] InspectorFrost:
Tried that....now at work and connects fine to the network, deffo must be an issue with my home network

Problem for me is that networks and the like aren't really my bag , ive had a look at the admin page on the router and can see its connected and theres nothing immediatly obvious that i could say "that looks suspect"

so im not sure what the answer is

all my other devices mac, pc ipod/phone and previous htc work well and have never had an issue

getting on my tits a little

ill have another fiddle later and see what i can do

cheers for the comments tho

otherwise, i do like the form factor of the phone and ill even give sense a good go befor i probably switch over to ADW or maybe launcherpro
[HTC Sensation] InspectorFrost:
Solved!

Set up static IP address on phone ..... Worked like a charm
[HTC Sensation] comclusive:
I find the same, except I think it has to do with encryption. I have tried with wep and wpa and I get an IP address but cannot browse. On unsecured it works just fine.

Like you found a static IP works, but I think it is the static DNS that is actually the issue here.

This is a cumbersome workaround if you use wifi all over the place, so I downloaded Static Wifi which says it will store settings per connection.

The only issue with this is that I think the device has to be rooted for this to work :(

wifi reconnect

Hi all

Perhaps we all have the same issue

I have the HTC Sensation with almost 2 weeks now and i am having one continuous issue.

I have wifi set up at home the phone connects ok,however i also have a TV/Video sender,when i need to use the TV/Video sender i have to turn off the wifi(not ideal).The problem occurs when i turn off the TV/Video sender and turn the wifi back on,the phone will connect with the modem but not to the internet,Facebook,Twitter,emails will not sync,while testing i have discovered that if i "kill" facebook and Twitter and restart the apps all is ok again i.e facebook,Twitter and emails all sync.

Does anybody have an idea what is causing this ?

Rgds

I seem to have managed to resolve this by setting the security to wpa2 and i also altered the dhcp scope to force a new range of ip addtrsses higher up. Since I did that I've had no problems.

Hello everybody,

I am wonder if the battery of the SGS II is compatible with its predecessor. Because the battery seems to have a higher capacity than the one of the Galaxy S I, I am wonder if the battery will fit and work. Has anyone tried this? I could use some extra batterypower.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] surrealjam:
No, they are not the same size. However, the battery from the Armani SGS (i9010) is also a 1650mah and that one is identical in shape and size. Check out the accessories section (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=886743) for more information - there were people selling these on eBay.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Denizzje:
Ah ok. Just noticed that I missed the whole accesories section indeed ;).
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] PhoenixFx:
And the i9003 (1650mAh) battery will also fit.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] chandramohan1986:
If u really want a good battery life, Hk and china's online stores have 2700mah and 3000 mah, both are made my different companies, also come with additional back cover, because of high capacity size also big, you cant use regular samsung's back cover, I feel this one is better brand name MOMAX, COmpany from HK, 2700 mah, price is 300 rmb, around 40 USD
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] T_Frain_K:
Please, pay attention on this matter.

Usually, cheap and higher-capacity batteries are lithium polymer technology opposed to the safer but more expensive lithium-ion ones you have in your phone.

I am not saying it will inevitably result in spontaneous combustion, nor that you should not do it at all, just that the risk is higher. (The charging circuitry is usually specifically designed for a certian battery, and not hongkonk replacements).

Even if you do use them without problems (I had a few of those myself), please, dispose of it once you observe it seems to "swell", meaning it getting thicker than before.

Consult youtube if you want to know what exactly could happen in worst case (search for lithium battery fire) - lithium burns at higher temperatures than 2.000 degrees celsius.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] sinancetinkaya:
That's why I use external wall charger :)

I never charge high capacity batteries while plugged to the device
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] whosy11:
From what I've seen, most cheap, higher-capacity batteries are, simply not higher capacity. Someone over in the Captivate forum actually did some quantitative measurements. The results were that none of the cheap, 3rd party batteries came close to their listed capacity. Only the OEM batteries were close to their rated capacity.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=906611

Edit: The doubles-sized, extended batteries will certainly have more capacity than the OEM stock battery, but it's not likely to have anywhere near the capacity that it says it does. Oh, and, as far as I know, these tests were not done on any of the premium 3rd party batteries - just the cheap ones.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Chillaholic:
I got the 1650mAh Armani battery for about 24€ includet taxes and sending.

Its really great and fits like the stock one. I dont want to buy china-bombs,

that make my phone look like a call booth.:D

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] senotrius:
it costs 600 rupees for the 1650mah battery in india..vfm actually
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] blackheart2925:
The 1650 mAh battery you are talking about is the one for the galaxy SL? Does it fit into the sgs properly?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] xenitu:
The ones using 1650 mah batteries can you tell me that you realized longer battery life?

Since it is only 10 percent higher than the stock battery it should have only 10 percent more battery life. So the extension of battery life for me it is about 2 - 2.5 more hours MAXIMUM and that does not make sense to me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Chillaholic:
It should be 10% but for me it feels more like 20-30%.

Maby I loaded my 1500mAh battery wrong,

but it seems to me to be a bigger different between both.
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
I was lucky enough to get my HTC Sensation yesterday, so here are some pics for people that might be interested.

I couldn't find a screenshot app in the Market that didn't require root, so back to the old faithful digital camera. The HTC Sensation's screen is very glossy, which makes reflections a bit of a pain, I'm afraid.

I would take a video, but (a) the autofocus is screwed on my camera, and (b) a 640x480 video wouldn't do the HTC Sensation's screen any justice at all!

I've got 12 pics in total, having to attach them 4 at a time...
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
4 more....
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
and the last four....

(apologies, they seem to be getting darker and grainier!)

Looks awesome :OO

Any feedback yet?
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
In this thread from here onwards:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1081531&page=4

A bit better, yes, it's only disconnected once since I switched the option on, as opposed to fairly regularly beforehand. The option says that this uses more battery, so what could it be doing then?

Looks just like HTC website pics and online retailers pics.

It didn't get warm at all whilst running all the benchmarks, haven't played any games or watched any vids yet though.

Performance on the BBC website was very slick (embedded videos in webpages) over WiFi.

Nothing particularly, although the screen was on for the whole of that time. The phone is still on its first charge cycle, though. The battery was about 70% charged out of the box, so I let it run down to 9% then charge it overnight back up to 100% and left it plugged in for about 6-7 hours in total (it only took about 3-4 to get to 100% though).

no i mean the voice thats recordet when you take videos ....

if its metalic or as goog as the sound from samsung
[HTC Sensation] brandi:
benchmarks!!!

Please!!!
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
The camera is excellent. Taking still shots, it takes a fraction of a second (barely perceivable) to actually take the shot, rather than the usual 2-3 seconds with other phones as the phone tries to focus and process the data. Very good quality pics too, with what I have taken so far.

Taking videos in full HD is excellent too. Very smooth, and the phone seems to do it with ease. Smooth playback, no juddering or screen tearing. No problems with sound either. Very clear, couldn't hear any background hiss or distortion.
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
See the other thread I linked to above, they're all in there: Quadrant, Linpack, and SmartBench 2011.
[HTC Sensation] kfgtboypsp:
But, is it loud?
[HTC Sensation] kooljainatul:
dear sjgore,

can u upload some hd 1080p video if u can,

also is Sense UI smooth?
[HTC Sensation] umd:
Isn't it that smooth like on this video?

Thanks for all your feedback.
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
Yes, absolutely fine. About the level you would expect.

I will try and upload something later today.

Sense 3.0 is smooth-ish, can be a little bit laggy and jerky in places. I'm actually using ADWLauncherEX instead of Sense 3.0, and it's super-smooth. Still got the cool lockscreen "ring" though. An added bonus is a transparent app drawer (can't believe this isn't part of Sense 3.0) and the ability to hide icons that I will never use.
[HTC Sensation] idesmond:
Dear sjgore,

How is the quality of the speakerphone? Is it too soft? Too loud to the point of sound being distorted?

could u say in which way it´s branded?

only some apps and settings? or also some kind of startup things,....

so is it possible do completly debrand it? and is the firmware version a special vodafone one? or will it be possible to get the future updates like the unbranded version?

thx!!!

[HTC Sensation] Ernie89:
According to Sjorge, who has the phone in his possession now, it shows a Vodafone animation/logo when the phone is turned off AND it has three applications from Vodafone installed on the phone (namely Vodafone 360 programs). From what I've heard it can't be deleted the normal way.
[HTC Sensation] brandi:
Why don't you make a video of that for all of us waiting =)
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
Yes, that's correct. With all my apps installed, I've still got 0.89Gb free!
[HTC Sensation] daSn00p:
@sjgore:

can u determine if ur firmware is a "special" vodafone fw.

i know there are the apps which cant be removed and the turnoff pic.

but is the version nr of the fw a "special" one so u cant install the coming updates for unbranded phones?
[HTC Sensation] Ernie89:
@Sjgore,

Everybody is talking about benchmarks, but to me that isn't that important. What matters to me is that the phone works without flaws and it runs smoothly trough the menu, homepages, apps etc. Now you've used it for almost 24h, what do you think about the smoothness of the Sensation? Does Sense 3.0 give lags or judders because it uses quite some 3D sometimes or does it all work fine now?
[HTC Sensation] brandi:
My HD2 also works... I want benchmarks =)

No you are right, but I don't see why noone can post a "State of the Art" Video somewhere... I can only find those stupid "Prerelease Devices"
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
It's a Vodafone firmware version (1.27.161.1) so no unbranded updates, I wouldn't have thought.
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
To quote myself from a previous post:

After over 24 hours of very high usage with the phone, it is certainly extremely stable. It hasn't crashed or frozen at all.

I keep going back to Sense 3.0 briefly, thinking that I might have been too hasty dumping it for ADWLauncherEX, but I always end up back with ADWLauncherEX because it's faster, smoother, and I'm a sucker for transparent app drawers and hidden icons (I've hidden all the vodafone stuff and most of the HTC "bloat" like Dice, HTC Hub, HTC Likes, HTC Locations, Mail, Mirror, News, News/Weather, Reader, Quick Lookup, etc etc).
[HTC Sensation] android_master:
I just have a couple of questions:-

1)How is HTC Sensation on the multimedia part{music/video playback}? Is it that good compare to Samsung Galaxy S2

2)How is the camera performance?I am using Nexus 1 for the past 15 months{also tried Desire HD} & have to say pretty pathetic{below average} camera.I am due for an upgrade this June & i am specifically looking for a dual core multimedia Android.

Is HTC Sensation a good multimedia smartphone:D

[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:

[HTC Sensation] umd:
I don't have it but as I know from Desire that setting can close only some sliding animations. I guess it can't change the 3D homescreen animation on Sensation too. Maybe we use older version of Sense Launcher to not have 3D animations.
