[HTC Sensation] Mattmanx:
Couldn't Agree More

Just my two cents (I finally created an XDA profile just to get a post out there about my Sensation experience so far!):

The people on this forum really dampened my expectations on his phone. All the talk about benchmarks, comparisons to the GS2, etc. are quite discouraging to folks on here... Almost to the point where I considered changing carriers or waiting another N months for the next set of phones to come out.

However... I am so happy that I didn't go that route. This may be because I'm coming from a myTouch 3G / HTC Magic that was almost inoperable at the time of my Sensation purchase, but I am extremely impressed with this phone. You really gotta go mess around with one if you're on the fence - the form factor is sooo sleek, the screen beautiful, and the UI seems snappy as hell to me. Being a developer, and concerned with performance, I do hope it's rooted soon, but I'm enjoying Sense 3.0 much more than I expected to.

Cheers!

Matt

I can understand what you mean. There are a lot of anal retentive people on this site who have nothing else going on so they nitpick any phone they purchase. I don't understand the logic of a person that looks for problems. For example, I saw a thread on here a few days ago from a person who's thread said something to the effect of, "hey I just got a Sensation..what problems should I look for?" Now when I saw that I'm thinking, why the hell would you be looking for problems? Just use the phone, and if there's a problem you will notice it. I saw another thread yesterday, where the poster was saying that he was concerned about the lens inside of the front-facing not being perfectly centered inside the hole....It's always something with these guys. Try not to let them damper your enthusiasm for any phone because they will if you allow them to. Some of these people on here would find fault if Jesus released a phone...
[HTC Sensation] gamer4595:
Just so you know the sensation is getting updated (along with all newer HTC devices) to get unlocked boot loaders!
[HTC Sensation] hurrpancakes:
Do you have a link to HTC specifically mentioning the Sensation will get an update like this?
[HTC Sensation] Apollo-2:
Stellar device

+10. The nitpicking in this forum is ridiculous. You might assume from reading countless threads that the handset is faulty. Not even close. The G2X complaints were valid, but not with the Sensation. Pick it up and you'll immediately understand why they called it the Sensation. It really is that nice. The build, screen, and all around feel is absolutely stellar. Really couldn't understand the disconnect between these threads and the actual device. Benchmark junkies please help keep these forums clean and move on to a new device.
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
For those always worried about benchmarks (I don't care about benchmarks), I heard that the benchmark apps aren't updated to read the 2nd core yet (or something like that).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrostbiteT44:
Ok I have a rooted DHD running Cyanogenmod 7. Everything worked fine until I wanted to do a complete factory reset to just sort of clean the slate. I did do a backup of Titanium backup before I did it.

The process went like this I clicked the power button went into reboot recovery and clicked on wipe data/ factory reset, then everything finished. It then rebooted with cyanogenmod 7 which was ok and saw that my SD card wasnt erased.

So what I did was did another factory reset through settings. Then the phone restarted and cyanogenmod 7 starts up and now it cant read my SD card it says its either blank or unsupported file format.

What happened? anyway to recover it?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrostbiteT44:
YAY!!!!!

Figured it out!!! What i did was i went down to the local store looking into buying a new SD card. I asked him if he could check to see if the SD card worked before I bought another one, so he stuck the SD card into his computer with one of those MicroSD to SD adapters and it popped up on his screen and he reformatted it and viola it was done and now my DHD recognizes it. Also he gave me the adapter for free sweet!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LandUzu:
I have the same issue and have NOT solved it!

I had flashed the latest LeeDrOiD GB ROM (after doing ext4 wipe) and made a mistake, which ended up with my phone reverting itself back to stock after a wrong selection in bootloader. DOH!

Anyways, after my very brief experience on GB....and very good it was too ;) - my phone was back at 1.32.405.6 with the standard radio.....absolutely back to bog standard.

I was advised on another thread that it was because id left an old stock rom on the SD card ........

After, again seeking advice on here, i removed the PD98.IMG file from the SD Card root. I then set about trying to re root and eng s-off/ radio s-off. This went smoothly ( to the best of my knowledge) i reloaded ROM manager and CWM and booted into recovery. This step went smoothly right up until i tried to select the .zip from the /sd card but an error came up saying something like " E:Can't mount /sdcard"

I rebooted the DHD and got the same message again :( I decided to copy over the card contents to a temp folder on my laptop and formatted the SD card with default settings and then copied back the card contents. This did not work either.

I have another sd card that i have also tried after formatting and i get exactly the same result. The cards contents are fine and can be read on either PC or laptop. I believe there is a setting/fault on the handset itself.

I dont know whether it has anything to do with SuperCID, as i did opt for that option when using the radio s-off tool.

i am now stuck with a DHD that is useless......

PLEASE HELP SOMEBODY......PLEASE????

Ive been trying literally since 8Oclock this morning.............. :( :(:mad:

There may be a cash reward involved for the solution leading to my systems recovery......:rolleyes:

All The best
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
@ LandUzu

Have you checked the settings in menu / settings / SD & phone storage / mount sdcard

If already mounted, try unmount / mount

Edit2:

If you can't boot system;

Turn off phone & boot into bootloader (Hold vol down, keep pressed & then press power button once)

Recovery

Mounts & storage

Are you able to "mount USB storage" and see the 'drive' on your PC, or able to "mount sdcard" as well?

Also try;

Removing battery for a bit (not too sure what effect, if any)

Remove sdcard and physically look in the sdcard slot (use strong light) for bad / damaged contacts

Edit3:

* FULL format (not quick) in PC sdcard to fat32 default allocation
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LandUzu:
Thanks for your suggestions......

Hi there UpInTheAir,

Thanks for your suggestions, but i have already tried all of them prior to posting mate.

If i look via settings> sd & storage the card is 'unavailable' to mount or unmount.

If i attempt a mount via bootloader>recovery, i get 'Error mounting /sdcard'

And if i try to mount USB storage, i get 'E:Unable to write ums lunfile (No such file or directory)'

:rolleyes: See why im banging my head against the wall?!

The contacts dont appear to be in any particular bad way and i have given it a good blow down the gap in case there was any dust........just cant work it out. The worst bit about all this, is that i had Lee's GB rom running SWEET n SMOOTH when i decided to reboot and all this happened. Im GUTTED!!!

Any further suggestions apart from send it back to HTC?

Regards :confused: :confused: :confused:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Most research points to a bad sdcard. But as you've posted earlier, you've tried two and both work on the PC.

If you cannot find a better or simple solution,...........have another idea;

Flash a stock RUU via PC. I helped Turkish Soldier try a couple months ago, but his was really bricked as his bootloader was already corrupted. We gave it a try, but the phone didn't end a communicating with the PC, so was back to HTC unfortunatey. But yours is different, you still have root & ENG S-off, so should work.

If the sdcard is still not accessable after, maybe it is a hardware fault.

Follow this guide:

[GUIDE] Installing RUU's

Follow the guide exactly and you should be right. Basically, you DL the test ROM and extract the 1.15 Utility. DL the 1.32 RUU and use the 1.15 utility to push it to your phone.

You can also DL the 2 required ROM's from here:

http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Ace

If all goes well;

You'll need to do all the Visionary - S-Off - ENG S-Off etc again if your able to mount the sdcard. If not, I don't know, as I said, maybe hardware fault.

I hope someone comes up with a simple solution for you, best of luck
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LandUzu:
Thanks again,

Thankyou for this lifeline, i will try right now and report back my out come.

Cheers matey. :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LandUzu:
Well thew results are in, and they aint good!! i tried both methods in that tut and neither could awaken the acknowledgement of the /sdcard by the DHD.

Im now intrigued more than upset as to what is causing the lack of comms between the 2, but that is a quirk of modern technology i guess.

Thanks again UpInTheAir for your valued assistance. I think we can safely say the DHD is f**ked.

I have :rolleyes: organised a repair and hope to hell my carrier doesnt replace it with an unflashable software version number!!!

Kind Regards & thanks once again.

LandUzu:p
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
No worries.

I did you manage to "downgrade" to stock RUU via PC ?

Or you downgraded, but sdcard still wouldn't mount?

If you managed to flash the stock somehow, would have removed the CWM recovery & HBOOT. All I think you need to do now is use jkoljo's tool to S-On, and it will be stock as, except for your sdcard-DHD-sdcard inoperable.

Just to be safe, check with another card at the HTC service center, never know........

Sorry I can't help further, never know, could be an easy fix somewhere, but seems unlikely.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LandUzu:
Managed to downgrade but still no cigar!!

Thanks, i didnt know whether to bother doing that or not, may as well save any hassle from the carrier or HTC.

Ive been searching the house high and low for an sdcard to tes....out of interest, what is the minimum suitable size for the DHD to run (basics)

Regards

LandUzu:o
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
I have read somewhere in the downgrade forums that a min of 2gb needed for goldcard, but as for as actual use goes, not to sure. In any case full format fat32 default allocation prior to any test.

can you help me please

it keeps crashing everytime i start it.:confused:

do i need to root my device because i'm using a crack vesion of slingplayer?
[Droid X General] comediangrant:
I was rooted with z4 and unrooted before I decided to do the gingerbread update. I did and went through the updating process. Upon reboot my phone froze within 10 seconds of fully loading after the restart. I did a battery pull and it repeated the process. I have restarted the battery multiple times and have even tried to reboot in recovery mode and was not able to bring up a menu in recovery mode to do a factory data reset.

Please help I actually work for an Indirect rep for Verizon and need my phone to do business.
[Droid X General] comediangrant:
one other piece of information if it may help when I do boot up the phone will go to a black screen with the notification bar still visible on the top. I cannot get anything to happen on by boot screen either.

Please give me any information that will be of assistance

[Captivate Themes and Apps] iRide113:
Coming over from HandCent (massive battery drain), and only one complaint.

With HandCent, it would unlock my screen even though I had a pattern lock enabled. But with Go SMS Pro, it just turns on the screen and makes the unlock noise, but it does not actually unlock the screen, but rather just show the pattern lock screen.

Help please?!?!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] pwnerman:
What happens when the screen is off and you get a text message
[Captivate Themes and Apps] iRide113:
Screen turns on, unlock sound happens, incoming message sound happens, but it is still left at the pattern unlock screen.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] pwnerman:
GOSMS wont let you bypass the lockscreen if you dont wanna hear the unlocking sound go to settings/sound/scroll down and uncheck Screen lock sounds everything else can be changed in GOSMS settings like if the screen turns on when u have a meesage and all that but ive used GOSMS for about 10 months to my knowledge it doesnt have that bypass feature
[Captivate Themes and Apps] iRide113:
Major deal breaker.... HandCent did it with ease.... :cool:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] pwnerman:
hit that thanks button lol and may i ask why you have a lockscreen if you want to bypass it anyway?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] iRide113:
I will, I will. I'm on my phone right now. ;)

Well it did a pop-up, showed the quick text box, and if you started to type, it would let you and then lock your phone back up after.

And if you didn't want to text back, it locked back up in 10 seconds (or whatever you set it to).

You can't exit out of the quick text box without the phone locking back up... really nice actually :cool:

Sent from my Cappy; using my fingers to push some buttons.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] pwnerman:
yea it wont let the pop up come over the lockscreen sorry but to stop it from doing that do into GOSMS's settings/ Notification Settings and uncheck Unlock screen
[Captivate Themes and Apps] iRide113:
Did that; I'll push all your "thanks" buttons tomorrow :)

But by the way, can it do it when there is no lock on it?

Sent from my Cappy; using my fingers to push some buttons.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] pwnerman:
I havent tested that but it prob will
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
I use GO SMS PRO myself....I hated Handcent.....only reason I don't use the stock samsung one is because my wife has an iphone and she likes to text the smilies LOL

GO does that for me....and thats the only reason I use it :p

I have pop up notifications on lock screen disabled.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] iRide113:
happy now pwnerman? ;)

Sent from my Cappy; using my fingers to push some buttons.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] pwnerman:
This is prob because your using GOMMS.

#5 in the GOMMS TIPS Clearly states "To send regular MMS use the Attachments tab

I've recently switched to this app as well. must faster and lighter than handcent- but I'm having one issue.

I have it set to unlock the phone when a message comes in. If I receive a popup notification for a message and immediately take my phone out of my pocket, sometimes the screen orientation will change and this will dismiss the popup. the message disappears from my notification tray and everything. has anyone else experienced this?

[HTC Inspire 4G] Elbob10s:
I'd like to give the most recent nightly a try. I made a backup of my ROM via ROM Manager. I have Titanium Backup do I want to backup all user apps, all system data, or both?

What is the process now to properly upgrade from 7.0.3 to Nightly 100? Do I need to wipe data?
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Going from 7.0.3 to the new nightlies is a big jump. They've changed from Gingerbread 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 as well as several kernel changes, and tons of other stuff. In this case it's probably best to do a full wipe before installing the nightly. Then restore your user apps in Titanium, however DON'T restore system data, as this will cause big problems. Any ROM settings that you customized in 7.0.3 (in Settings or CyanogenMod settings) you'll have to manually set again.

edit: One thing to note, if you're a heavy corporate Exchange email user, you'll want to hold off on the nightlies for now. There is an email issue that seems to be occurring on the Inspire only, that causes all email apps to crash when viewing messages on an Exchange server. The problem's been around since nightly 88 and hasn't been fixed yet. However, if this is no big deal to you, then the nightlies have otherwise been working well.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Elbob10s:
I only use the Gmail app so that won't be an issue for me. I'm using the LorDmod 5.5 kernel I'll probably have to flash that again.

Thanks! I believe I know what I have to do now :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
If you flash a new nightly you'll definitely want to upgrade to the newer LorDModUE kernel as well. It is specifically designed for the newer nightlies.

edit: He's got a new smartass2 cpu governor in v4.0 so be sure to check it out. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] poetofsound:
+1 for LorDMod UE kernel on CM7 nightlies! Kicks butt!
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
@Elbob10s,

One more thing I forgot to mention. Once you've installed the new nightly, then it's usually OK to flash subsequent nightlies directly on top of the previous one without wiping. When you do this, you'll need to reinstall LorDMod again, since the kernel will get overwritten back to default.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Elbob10s:
I'm on nightly 101 now, I tried 100 before it. I'm having a couple of minor issues with ADW Launcher and how it's showing the dock background now.

My personal contact icon is showing the grey box now only. On 7.0.3 I was experiencing a bug where the box would take over if I lost phone signal for any time until I rebooted, I was hoping that would have been fixed in then nightly lol.

But my biggest issue was after flashing LorDMod 5.6 last night the Home, Menu, Back, and Search buttons would no longer respond. I ended up doing another wipe and reflashing nightly 100. Is that the incorrect version for the nightlies?

I'm now on 101 in hopes of the contact icon working but no dice. Haven't tried to flash the kernel yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Yes that was a known issue on LM 5.x kernel on the newer nightlies. You want to move up to LM UE kernel, the link is in my sig. It was designed for the newer nightlies.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Elbob10s:
The UE with smartass2 is working great. I fixed the contact icon issue by adding my phone number in the phone settings.

Everything seems to be working great now.

SPIED! New HTC Win Phone 7 handset at AT&T store! Pics of Dummy Phone, UPC & Name.

FYI, I was at an AT&T retail store in Central California today and the store mgr let me check out an upcoming (not yet announced or released ASFAIK), WP7 "dummy phone" by HTC. :)

No details on the exact processor, RAM, screen technology, etcetera, as it was in a plain, white cardboard box with no printed specs or paperwork, but I do have "some" additional info. ;) I managed to steal a few quick camera-phone pics of the front and back of the device, plus a pic of the UPC barcode, and the HTC Model Name & #. No info from the store about expected release date, etc.

Any interest here? ;)
