[HTC Sensation] tenbeau:
I picked up a Sensation today and it is sitting next to my G2x. So far I have observed the following:

Sensation--Device got very hot immediately after powering it on. It has continued to stay at 101 to 111 degrees if used at all. If it idles it only drops to 96 degrees.

Touchscreen becomes unresponsive at times and a noticeable lag appears while trying to load apps. After charging to full capacity it has dropped 17% in 15 minutes of very limited use. The screen is very nice and it is a very attractive phone. I am not a fan of Sense (although this version is much better than the previous ones) Speaker phone volume is relatively weak (in my opinion) The build is great, although I have found a sort of dent in the upper area of the battery cover. The GPS is one of the best I have ever tried. All in all a very very good phone. The heating issues which started immediately and the touchscreen's lack of responsiveness make it hard for me to consider keeping this phone. I could probably just send it back and get a replacement but I do not want to get on that merry go round again. Unless the over heating ceases or gets better and the touch screen responds on all areas of the screen, it will go back and I will be staying with the G2X. Make no mistake though the Sensation is a GREAT phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] nccu_eagles:
I charged my sensation fully before I ever powered it on and I have not experienced any over heating issues. I absolutely hate the g2x lol

hi.. i no there no way to set haptic feed back on but when its used for the messaging the viberation seems very deep/loud and it just sound off and loud.it hard to explain what it sounds/feels like its kinda stupid but im just wondering if theres something wrong :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] addictedhacks:
I have changed the lcd density and diabled the bootup sound but I cant get my short mp3 to play instead of stock bootup sound. I have followed instructions and changed Ipone Killer_4.mp3 to Iphone Killer_4.wav but no luck... can someone point me in the right direction plz?
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
1. You posted in the wrong section, this should have been in General.

2. To change the startup sound, it needs to be PowerOn.wav. Also, if you just changed the file extension from mp3 to wav, it also won't work. You would need to re-encode the file from MP3 to WAV.
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
I upgraded to an Inspire. I had 3g on my account, so I called ATT to get it changed to 4g. The associate I spoke to said he couldn't give me unlimited 4g, even though I was grandfathered in with 3g unlimited by the resolutions department. Is there any real reason to switch to 4g, if it comes at the cost of having a 2gb usage cap?
[HTC Inspire 4G] stickbo:
Guess it all depends on the rep you get, but I can assure you that its still active. Just did it a couple weeks ago. I would recommend going to an att corporate store, not a vendor. Whatever you do, dont ditch the unlimited. Good luck
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
1. Stick to unlimited 3G

2. Root ur phone and turn ENG S-OFF

3. Install custom ROM and get "H" (AT&T's equivalent of 4G) speeds
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
I have rooted it.

I do have an H+ icon in the top right corner of the phone's screen. Someone I know used to do the old imei switcharoo to nonsmartphone data plan, but that doesn't work on Android phones like it did on the tilt2 (according to a good friend of mine.) Does Eng Off have anything to do with that? He said it worked fine on the nonsmartphone plan for a couple of days, and then when he downloaded his first app from the market. *****smacked. Got an mms saying he'd been switched to a suitable smartphone data plan. Misses the tilt2 to the tune of about 30 bucks a month.
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
You might as well get this issue resolved now, because in the future when all the

true

4g LTE phones come out, your 3g plan might not get you LTE speeds. Currently a 3g plan is enough to get you "4g" speeds, because AT&T is calling HSPA+ "4g" (my old iPhone 4 is a "3g" phone but I get "4g" HSPA speeds on it). There is no way of knowing if a 3g plan will get you true LTE speeds in the future, and you'll wish you had grandfathered yourself into the unlimited 4G plan now. I would take stickbo's suggestion and go in person to an AT&T store and make them grandfather you into the unlimited 4g plan.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thesuffering:
you can keep it if you are grandfathered and have 4g unlimited. i got the text when i got my inspire. called and verified it would remain grandfathered, and it does show unlimited online. i have a premier account, but i doubt it makes a difference
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
HSPA+ =\= HSPA. Get your account provisioned right, even if you have to call another agent or go to the store to get it done. Remember, carriers can limit which tech you are able to connect to. If you are limited to HSPA only you may never get the max out of this phone, let alone future ones.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tyguy:
Sorry for my ignorance but AFAIK there is no 4G card and/or plan or special provisioning at ATT at current time.

You (we?) should be good with a "3G" SIM to fetch 4G speeds where they are available (roll-out from ATT is rather slow). 4G LTE IS indeed another story.

Regarding grandfathering in, ATT tried the same thing with me and others to "downgrade" the plan (PDA personal 30 bucks a month unlimited data) to 2GB/month. A single call to ATT solved this problem because they have to grandfather you in if you are willing to pay 30 bucks for unlimited instead of 25 for 2 GB capped. With new plans it's a different story, they will be capped to 2 GB unless you do the iPhone 2G trick (search the forum).

Just my $ 0.02
[HTC Inspire 4G] longdongsilver:
I am on a medianet plan and my phone says I have hspa+. How can I confirm this? Medianet apns have been working fine but when I called about having unsigned apps activated ota they said my 4G might not work so great. Seems ok although hspa+ not 4g or anywhere near it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] caverhuff@gmail.com:
I got unlimited 4g when I got my Inspire 1 month ago. I just called ATT support and they verified that you can get unlimited with 4g anywhere in the US. Talk to another agent. Most of them are stupid. When I got my inspire I was told that I couldnt even get 4g without a new simcard lol.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Carlrobling:
Call them up. Threaten to leave because they wont grandfather you in. I assure you they will. I just switched from a grandfathered unlimited iphone plan that I got grandfathered from a medianet unlimited plan(They grandfathered me from medianet unlimited because i told them the tos doesn't say you have to have unlimited smartphone data to get grandfathered it just says unlimited data. They ended up putting in the unlimited iphone data plan for users that dont have required data plan). I had no issues what so ever if the rep refuses ask to speak with a manager. They can change it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tyguy:
There is no unlimited 4G as well as there is no true indication of 4G. There is limited or unlimited DATA, period.

Thought this would be clear. The little + doesn't tell you anything beside that you have "at least" a 3G connection and that you're not running on edge!

You either need a good GSM test tool - even this may tell you only UMTS or WCDMA or simply speed test. 3G should be capped at about 3.5 mbps down, 4G/HSPA+ will run between 4 and 8 mbps down, the latter in good areas.

- Sent from Inspire 4G using XDA App -
[HTC Inspire 4G] Carlrobling:
Your only technically right. Try running your service without the "4g" data plan (your data speeds wont change i know i ran the 3g data plan then switched to the "4g" data plan). Att will constantly txt and email about needing the correct data plan and then change it themselves like they do for the iphone. And you may not get grandfathered over. The op is only asking a question about what he is being told by att and also looking for some advice to keep his unlimited data.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zuriken:
That's similar to how my upgrade worked too. Originally an unlimited MediaNet plan (with an Ericsson clamshell), upgraded into an unlimited 3G plan (AT&T Tilt 1), upgraded again into their unlimited "4G*" plan with the Inspire.
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
Premier account DOES make a difference. I can get any smartphone (exception of iphone) without the otherwise mandatory data plan. And sometimes when I choose early upgrades I get the price between the regular upgrade and regular early upgrade (e.g., instead of paying 399 for Atrix under early upgrade, I got it for 275).
[HTC Inspire 4G] tyguy:
I changed phones (Fuze to Inspire and had PDA unlimited since my Tilt/Kaiser), they tried to pull the 2 gig cap stunt on me - complaint - got unlimited. Never got any emails or other notifications that I require a 4G plan (which IMO doesn't exist anyway) and can get up to 8.5 mbps download in good areas - so I must have INDEED 4G 'cuz 3G wont support these speeds.
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
it's 3.5 g

Look at my sig photo
[HTC Inspire 4G] stickbo:
I didn't think that the inspire had an lte radio, did I miss something?

As I remember I thought it only had an hspda+ capable of 14. 4 Mb/sec. Am I completely off? Not making a statement truly asking.
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
The Inspire "4G" does not have an LTE chipset

AT&T speak, if you read carefully, says they are working on providing "4G speed", with essentially some network tricks with 3G technology. That said...I'm happy when I get off my 12 hour shift at 5AM and hit 7.6 down :-p :-p :-=p. Hee hee finally Star Trek (TOS) shyte I grew up watching is possible on my effin phone!
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
You keep saying the 4g plan doesn't exist, but it does. It doesn't make a difference in speeds, and it might just be a technicality, but there are separate plans. This is how they are worded in my family account under "manage features" (I've got 1 Inspire and 3 iPhones in my family account):

-SmartPhone Personal (Unlimited) <<this is the grandfathered 4g unlimited plan

-DataPro 2GB for 4G Smartphones

-DataPlus 200MB for 4G Smartphones

iPhone plans have a different name:

Data Plan for iPhone (Unlimited)

DataPro 2 GB for iPhone

DataPlus 200 MB for iPhone

There may come a day when having a 4g plan DOES make a difference in your speeds. That is why I was telling the OP to try to grandfather into the unlimited 4g plan NOW, because these unlimited plans are going the way of the dinosaur. Once you lose that grandfathered connection, it is gone forever.
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
Yes, there surely is a provisioning for HSPA+. It may just be enhanced 3G, but there is a difference in plans for sure.
[HTC Inspire 4G] CashmereEsquire:
I worked for T-Mobile and have an ATT account, if ATT is anything like how T-Mobile is you data plan means nothing.

With Blackberries for example, those were the only data plans that would not work with an Android or Windows phone (and the cheapo internet for non smartphones) because Blackberries have certain security provisions.

Your data plan will NOT effect how your speeds are on the phone.

The only thing ATT will maybe do in the future is add a specific Sim card provision for the LTE data plans where your phone must have the correct plan in the system.

For example I sim swap from my Inspire 4g and iPhone 4 and I have a grandfathered unlimited iPhone web, and the Inspire 4g works perfectly. But I did get an email saying it is recommended I go to a 4G data plan.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tyguy:
I'm not in for a fight and also want to learn s'thing but I assume that they "added" this 4G plan just as a first step to get rid of grandfathering in the future and/or that new customers don't even see the option "Smartphone/PDA unlimited."

Side by side an unlocked Samsung 4G multichannel UMTS phone (Galaxy S II) isn't faster or slower than an Inspire so I still believe it's a marketing gimmick.

There is another interesting post here in the forum:

[HTC Inspire 4G] GuerillaZhou:
I just signed up for an at&t plan and the SIM they gave me was a 3g/lte sim card. I guess I'll wait another two years for a lte phone. So in the future, there will be a difference between 3g and 4g data.

[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Your sim card said "LTE" on it? Interesting. Maybe that's a good sign LTE is coming sooner rather than later.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Tx Redneck:

We have to admit, AT&T‘s current “4G” offering – which uses HSPA+ – has left us pretty much cold, with underwhelming speeds in comparison to Verizon’s LTE network. Happily AT&T also has LTE plans of its own, and the carrier has just announced the first five markets to get the speedier 4G access: Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Atlanta and San Antonio will all get some AT&T LTE-lovin’ as of this summer.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] twigster:
Hi.

Now that the new 10.1 is starting to make its way into peoples hands, I'm curious regarding the differences to the initial 10.1v and I/O tabs and the new 10.1 tabs. From the little actually posted it looks like the same procesor has been used and I actually can't really see other differences apart from the hard drive options, the tablet overall size and the camera.

This leads me to the question of development on the galaxy tab. If the specs end up being quite similar will there still need to be seperate development across the devices for the minor differences once sources are released? And will a new forum section need to be created for the latest devices or will it fall into one of the existing dev forums?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] andrei318ti:
I am also interested for an answer about this. I can buy tah 10.1 v for a relativly good price but I just wish to know wether it is worth to wait for the new model.

Tahnk you.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] marko68:
The same question from me..........
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] banzro:
10.1 -> GT 7500 and 10.v -> GT 7100

Hi,

Those liks are quiet good documented...

It's in German but will help you a bit...

the big difference is Camera!

http://www.handy-deutschland.de/samsung-gt-p7500-galaxy-tab-10-1-3g-datenblatt.html#daten
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] FricoRico:
Actually there is a little bit more underneath the hood than than just the camera differences.

Yes the CPU is the same, but the CPU isn't the only component in the tablet ofcourse. It seems that there is a different kind of flash memory used in 10.1v compared to the 10.1.. I don't know if this is the main reason for the 10.1v performing a tiny bit better in Quadrant scores, the CPU scores the same scores in Linpack. Though the scores in Quadrant have a 400-500 point difference. This might be caused by other factors but this would be the most logical.

On a downside, Samsung made the partition size of /system (where Honeycomb is installed) too small to make stock 10.1 roms running on the 10.1v.. This is an obstacle still to be overwon. In theory the 10.1 kernels should work on the 10.1v, in practice this isn't always the case. But with the 10.1v kernel made opensource yesterday, chances are it would be really easy to make 1 kernel for both devices.

So in short, the 10.1v might be a small factor faster and have a better camera resolution wise. But on the other hand the 10.1 is smaller, has more accessories availible (right now that is, don't know if Samsung will release accessories for the 'v' model soon). And as soon as /system can be resized, we are probably good to go and merge the entire development threads.

*fingers crossed*
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] coachclass:
Thanks to the OP for posting this. I actually posted the same question prior to finding this thread.

So, just to be clear, the 10.1 is newer than the 10.1v? If you buy one now (say at BB or Amazon), which version are you likely to get? Do retailers bother to distinguish the difference?

Why did Samsung bother to make two version of such similar tablets?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aSeeker:
Aren't the connectors the same for both devices?
[Wildfire General] deezykhara:
ive been using cm7.0.3 and have overclocked to 710 MHz but still think its a bit slow, so i was thinking if there was a better rom that works super smooth on the wildfire and is really responsive, if not what i could do to speed up my phone and make it more responsive, thanks in advance
[Wildfire General] :
JUST SOME THINGS TO SPEED UP:

--disable display animations.

--try to keep the number of home screen widgets minimum.

--Enable JIT (if it was disabled on your device). Pls search for this.

--turn off predictive text input.

--check whether the device is stable or not at that clock. If unstable it becomes worse. Try decreasing the clock and check the performance.
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
Try LauncherPro instead of ADW. Swiping across homescreens and the app drawer is far more responsive.
[Wildfire General] ErwinP:
And, totaly off the question, the cube transition effect of launcherpro is FANTASTIC.
[Wildfire General] deezykhara:
yeah i use launcherpro and think its really good, but im really looking for something that has htc sense but runs really smooth, what are peoples views on these two (ones i think have stood out, if there are any others please mention them): jokerdroid and dk custom froyo ?
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
I have used WildPuzzle, and, had no issues with it. Not tested the other 2 you have listed, but, going by the users views on these, seems these are great ROMs with no problems as well.
[Wildfire General] hans moleman:
Jokerdroid is definitely top of my list to try out ;)

Anybody else notice this? The past 2 days I can't get TV Shows Stream to play any videos. App loads, can search for shows and see the lists, but nothing will play. Looked around, googled, couldn't find any recent chatter about it. I've been using it a LOT on my TB.

chances are you're seeing the same message everyone else is (androidcentral forum members) about "this video has been taken down" or "video removed"--have you tried all of the source links (karambavidz/megavideo/etc) for the videos?

i love the app and will hate when it's no longer working. i already hate that it's removed from the marketplace. they removed it THE DAY i rooted and had to work my magic to get the .apk back

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albert_htc:
Hi

I've rooted my Desire, now I have 2 questions..

1. Can I use GParted to resize my 8GB SC Card ? to have a 1.5GB EXT3 Partition.

Resize current FAT32 partition and then create 1 x 1.5GB EXT3 Partition

( not delete all partitions and create from new )

Will doing it this way keep the card as my Gold Card ?

2. To make use of CM7 or GingerVillian will I need to update my Radio ?

I've read that's risky any 'sure' fire way to flash ?

BaseBand: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27

Kernel: 2.6.32.15-gf5a401c htc-kernel@and18-2 #1

Build: 2.29.405.2 CL263770 release-keys

Software: 2.29.405.2

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ufrat:
1. Is it posible to resize a fat32 don't really know but don't think so ...

2. GingerVillian should work with this Radio/BaseBand but updating it through recovery if you have rooted your phone is not that bad ...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
1. Using GParted is easier than it looks - And yes, you can do a 1.5GB EXT partition with it. AFAIK - it is possible to resize the partitions (e.g. take the 1.5 GB from Fat32 and create the EXT), but always back up your data first! (Just in case). As for the goldcard issue - If the card is not formatted (the whole) it should remain. However, if it's gone you can easily re-create it, by using the Goldcard tool (with GUI).

2. Updating the radio is only mandatory, if the thread states it or you have Call/Mobile Network/Wi-Fi/GPS issues.

The best way to flash it (less risk) - is by S-OFFing your pphone and flash the radio from fastboot.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adam Jensen:
1) You can do those partitions without GParted - just download Paragon 9.5 (or similar) and you can resize partitions, make new partitions (EXT2, EXT3) and so on. This is useful if you're on Windows.

On my 16GB miniSD card, I left 1.5GB for my EXT2 partition, whilst formatting the remaining space as FAT32.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albert_htc:
Thanks for the replies.

I have Ubuntu on my netbook, so I used Gparted from that.

Shrunk the FAT32 partition to 6.5GB, created new 1.5GB EXT3 partition.

Seems OK. Just need advice on flashing my first ROM..

Started new thread for that :)

You don't need a new thread as there are literally hundreads of flashing guides - just read one of them!!
[General Questions and Answers] MountainX:
On my phone I use GV Dialer by cpedia (http://gvdialer.cpedia.net/). (It's a paid app, but there is also a simlar free app - Google Voice Callback by Xinlu.)

Has anyone gotten one of these GV callback apps to work on Honeycomb?

The use case is this - I'm sitting at home and I want to call someone using Google Voice and I want GV to connect the call via my home landline. I have my tablet in my hand and I use the GV callback app to initiate my call. My phone will ring, I answer it, and GV connects me to the party I'm calling. (It is convenient and I get free long distance too.)

It's actually *really* convenient. I can already do it on my Viewsonic GTab exactly like this. But I would now prefer to use my Honeycomb device.

FYI, the Android market says both the callback apps mentioned not compatible with Honeycomb tablets. I installed GV Dialer by cpedia by copying the apk file to the device. It installed and it runs. But the list of phones to connect the call is not populated.
[HTC Sensation] gringooo:
I bought Sensation 2 days ago, and saw these strange lines over the Winamp widget. It was only in the space which was for the Winamp widget, and after I removed widget, the lines were gone.

That happened twice, and the similar lines appeared on the "show me" widget, which was "factory installed", so the problem is not Winamp probably.

Should I return the phone now, or wait to see will this become permanent?
[HTC Sensation] Zheiko:
Can you force this to be happening? I dont believe they'd take the phone back unless you can prove the fault...

Anyway, I'd give it a go and see what happens, if it gets any worse, you can always request warranty repair, for as long as the phone aint rooted etc.

EDIT: Looked at the pic you posted again, it doesnt seem to be HW fault, its more likely an SW issue... well, obviously 2.3 aint ready for this resolution, I hope devs reacts soon so this can get fixed
[HTC Sensation] redbullcat:
If it was the Winamp widget only, that'd be the problem, as I'd say it wasn't set up for qHD, or configured correctly etc

Move either of the widgets that have the issue to another part of the screen, then another homescreen. Just don't keep it in that physical rectangle area of the screen.
[HTC Sensation] gringooo:
I dont know how to force that error again. I would like that it was a software, its easier to fix, I think.

When I was moving the Winamp widget, those lines were moving with the widget.
