[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoomerFZ1:
I just received my gtab and it WAS 1.2 out of the box. After trying to root via the internal card method and not being successful, I did the nvflash thing to go back to stock. Now I have 1.1 bootloader. Is there a way, or a need, to go back to the 1.2 bootloader as it was stock (guess I should have backed up then, huh)?

Thanks and sorry if this has been covered...searched but no luck.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ed6607:
1.1 was the original bootloader, 3588

1.2 in the new bootloader 4349
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoomerFZ1:
Yeah, I know this. But with more devs developing for 1.2, is going to 1.1 gonna hurt me in the future? And, if so, is there a way to go BACK to my original BL...1.2???
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roebeet:
I can't speak for all the 1.2 ROMs, but all of mine can be flashed over 1.1 as long as you have build 3588 stock recovery. You can also flash to 4349 stock to get to 1.2 - but again, you need 3588 stock recovery to do it.

There's also an nvflash image for 4349, if you want to go that route. I believe goodintentions' site has all this information.

I looked at Play.com and found the official HTC dock for the sensation.

http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/...n-CR-S490-Desktop-Cradle/Product.html?cur=258

£23 is a bit steep for a dock. The Kidigi dock is £18 plus it has a batter charger.

Thoughts on the official dock?
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
I like it, always prefer to use OEM stuff than 3rd party so might look into getting this
[HTC Sensation] Angelmsx:
I wonder if this is the same dock as the one on the bell site. Although the bell dock for the sensation hasn't officially launched yet either. Can anyone confirm?
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
Looks like there's a button on the top left corner. Says video. Perhaps this dock launches dock mode?

[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
I would assume so
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/HTC-Desktop-Cradle-S490-Sensation/dp/B0055HXNI4

No button though.
[HTC Sensation] El Daddy:
I want this. I emailed HTC last week about an OEM dock and they said they couldn't provide any info.

I hope it is released in the US soon. After having the dock for my N1 for so long, I'm really missing it.
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
play.com says the release date is Aug 1, let's hope that the US release date is the same. I'm definitely getting one.
[HTC Sensation] AZ2ENVY:
Wow I want two !
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
So... It's Aug 1st and it's out of stock on play.com. Has anyone ordered one from any place?
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
Don't think so. I think it's also been delayed. Just like the official HTC cases.
[HTC Sensation] micspabo:
I would suggest to take the KiDiGi Docking station instead. Looks better to me!
[HTC Sensation] farfromovin:
I bought two cheap arse docks on fleabay for $14 shipped each. When this gets released though I'd likely switch as I'm a huge fan of OE accessories. Fit, finish, function is always much improved. You get what you pay for I suppose.
[HTC Sensation] death1246:
such a poor design they could of easily had the gold dots for it would of been much better

Anyone going for it? ;)

[HTC Sensation] farfromovin:
I'd highly recommend OE. The eBay units I bought (no name) made my screen freak out when plugged in. If I use my own HTC charger with the no name cradle it's ok. However, the generic cradle doesn't have nice little cutouts for the volume rocker switch so you have to be careful placing it on the dock. Overall, I'd buy an HTC unit if they sold them in the US.
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
I'd buy it. But I have the kidigi dock. Disappointed it doesn't go into dock mode...

[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
It's the kidigi one.
[HTC Sensation] fryrice8850:
i picked up one of these at the local US t-mobile store and this dock is nice but it puts the phone in this really bright "dock" mode. I rather have the clock instead.

there is also a "video" button but no clue what it does. i left it depressed. I also got the car dock as well.
[HTC Sensation] splayer7:
Am I seeing things, or is that a mini-usb plug instead of a micro-usb plug.
[HTC Sensation] farfromovin:
Anyone have a source for a genuine HTC dock here stateside?

[HTC Sensation] zerone55:
I think this dock is available on mobilecityonline.com in US. A little pricey though.

Cant post a link since I don't have enough posts. :(
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
I bought this one a few weeks ago. It's the same as the kidgi one. Well built and priced rather cheaply. Don't like the red "EVO" logo though, may try to remove it with some fine sandpaper.
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
Thanks for the info. How much did you pay for it? It's not available on tmobile.com, I'll go to my local tmobile store to check it out when i have time.

Is there any HDMI/Video-out port? Perhaps the video button is to turn video output on?
[HTC Sensation] rosedog:
^^ this ^^
[HTC Sensation] cibomato:
I don't like all these cradles where the phone is horizontal oriented. Isn't there a cradle where the sensation is upright?
[HTC Sensation] archangel52005:
They should be at most T-mo stores now. They run like $50 before taxes though. I've messed with it and like it but not sure if is a $50 purchase. I have no idea why they wouldn't be available on the website yet though. I'll take some pics when I get in on Tuesday if they aren't already uploaded by someone else. I didn't notice any HDMI port either.

Got Mine

I had ordered my Cradle back in June. It finally showed up last week from Expansys USA.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
LOL I had cancelled mine thinking that if I had a case on it, the dock would be rendered useless IMO. Can you use it with a case or no?
[HTC Sensation] deemota:
You are totally right with your assessment, can't use any type of case while docked.
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
Thanks for the pics!. Anything special on the back? Also, it does put the phone into dock mode?
[HTC Sensation] deemota:
Nothing special on the back. Just usb port for charger or hdmi cable. It puts the phone into dock mode right away. If you leave the video button pressed then it won't put it in dock mode. The video button also let's you send video to your tv with the usb to hdmi cable.
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
I might buy it. But I have the Kidigi dock, which has a battery charger.

And chance of opening the dock to see what makes it go into dock mode please? :D
[HTC Sensation] deemota:
Sorry man, there is zero chance of me opening it up. LOL. I just saw it at TMobile store, you can pick it up there. $50 though. I paid 36.99 from expansys.
[HTC Sensation] GorillaPimp:
http://www.expansys-usa.com/htc-sensation-desktop-cradle-cr-s490-219003/

Price is up to $41.99 now

I have a kidigi style one already but I will probably buy this one too. One for my nightstand and one for the living room. Pretty sure you can connect the mhl adapter to this.

Thanks for the pics and info deemota
[HTC Sensation] AZ2ENVY:
The MHL adapter does NOT work with Kidigi docks . I have 2 of them and it does not work with either of them . If you want a dock that supports HDMI out the HTC one

will be the way to go .
[HTC Sensation] nyknicks8:
Thanks for the pics. Does the phone go out of dock mode when removed?
[HTC Sensation] deemota:
Yes it does....
[HTC Sensation] Willieumm:
Anybody tried this one yet? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Anker-Deskt...511464?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4aae56e9e8

I'm wondering if it goes into dock mode?
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
Doubt it, It's like the Kidigi Dock.
[HTC Sensation] Willieumm:
Well I guess since nobody else has tried it I'll be the test dummy and report back. For $20 including a spare battery charger & free shpping it's got to be worth a shot. The Anker battery is great in my opinion so hopefully this is good quality as well.
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
It doesn't go into dock mode.It's like the Kidigi one...
[HTC Sensation] Willieumm:
Yep, you were right. I got it and used it for three nights. It was horrible, the phone became unresponsive when placed in the cradle. It had a very laggy feeling unless you took the phone out. The Anker 1900 mAh batteries don't even fit in the spare charger that came with it so I sent it back. Then I bought the OEM HTC desktop cradle off eBay for $37.40 and $1.99 shipping. It reminded me of one of the golden rules in life: You get what you pay for. This one is pretty much perfect, not a single complaint from me. Just not sure what the "video" button does. But it comes in a nice looking HTC box with an OEM wall plug and USB cable. It also kicks the phone into dock mode and does nothing to hinder the phones performance. This is where I bought it from: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160657535610#ht_1353wt_1182

The price has since gone up to $41.31 but with free shipping now. It took exactly 7 days from date of purchase to arrival in my mailbox. :)
[HTC Sensation] deemota:
The vido button is if you have MHL HDMI cable connected, then it projects your screen onto a tv.
[HTC Sensation] h4pppy:
Seems others found already out what puts the sensation into dock mode:

[HTC Sensation] keridelsnr:
I've just received mine from Clove Technology in Bournemouth £30 including P&P. great bit of kit, very well made and includes a video button, it also sends the phone into dock mode. it really does look the business
[HTC Sensation] stewalker:
Is it. Confirmed that the OEM HTC dock will not work with a case? This is the case I have ordered

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/vi...=3&nav=WON&nid=28357619491&trxId=762820475007

I really want a dock that will also kick the phone into desk mode but don't want to have to take the case off every night. I know the mod can be be done to enable deck mode but the only dock I've for so far that will definately account for using a case is craigsdock.

Preferably I would like a dock that will work with a case, will start and stop dock mode automatically and also Have a slot to charge a spare battery.

Maybe there is a dock out there that will work with a case and then I can jus mod it to work?
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I have the clear and black one:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20333330&postcount=22

Great case IMO, one of the best out there for the price :).

As for chargers, depending on what type of battery you are charging I guess. But for a fact, I know the Seidio chargers that are made for the Active Cases will fit with that case because the active case is a tad thicker than the Aprolink one.

Did anyone try this one out yet?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/BATTERY-CHA...Accessories&hash=item519c8298f2#ht_4832wt_943

I forgot to add that I also have the Craigsdocks.com docks, both versions. I can def say you cannot go wrong with the guys docks. They are really well made, compared to Seidio. I cannot compare them to the Kidigi or HTC because I do not have them. I know you are over the pond, maybe you can email craigsdocks.com and tell them that kpjimmy from xda-developers sent you. He may cut you a deal in some way. Never hurts to ask. GL
[HTC Sensation] stewalker:
To be honest you're pics and review on here is the reason I bought the case. It looks gorgeous.

I really like the look of that dock you've found if it fits covers aswell that's perfect. It also mentions something about activating horizontal dock mode and displaying media icons but I don't know if I'm reading it wrong or not?
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Glad I helped shed some light that. Yes I believe that horizontal kidigi dock does trigger dock mode in sense roms. If you read my other posts, there are conditional apps that can trigger that as well, so I personally wouldn't use that as a reason to buy it lol...but that's me.

Just a fyi, the 'spare' battery charger looks thin so I assume it only charges the stock battery. Just use the anker or other 3rd party battery to charge in the phone and keep your stock charged up as a back up. :D
[HTC Sensation] stewalker:
Well I just bit the bullet and ordered the dock you posted. I see what you mean about the size of the spare battery slot. When I receive it ill post some pics of what its like. Now I just need to find the highest capacity battery I can.

Thanks for all you help.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Not a problem. I have used anker batteries since launch and they are great IMO. For the price I expected stock capacity, but it is indeed a bit more. So I am happy with them.
[HTC Sensation] stewalker:
I recieved the dock that was posted earlier, the kidigi one with a removable insert so it can be used with cases.

Anyway the dock stated on ebay that it would trigger dock mode on the phone but this isn't the case.

I got intouch with the seller who stated it does trigger dock mode via a magnet in the base.

I was under the impression that dock mode was triggered via a resistance across the pins on the micro usb?

Either the sensation 4g does trigger this was as that what the dock is designed for, or the seller is talking a loads of rubbish?

Does anyone have any idea?
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I never gutted the Seidio dock but it is pretty light so I doubt magnets were involved in triggering dock mode. Because If I just rest the phone in the dock of the Seidio, it doesn't do anything....I think. I gotta test it and report back LOL.

EDIT: Ok, went to my seidio dock which is not plugged in and just inserted the phone in the dock and it auto triggered the clock mode. I don't have dock mode because I am now on Virtuous Inquisition and that is mostly AOSP stuff anyways.

Anyways, went and placed the phone in the dock at a few angles without placing it in the port to dock it and nothing triggered the clock mode until the port was inserted into the phone. So my guess is the pins that trigger dock mode or in my case, clock mode :D
[HTC Sensation] stewalker:
Well I think they are just full of it then. It definately doesn't start dock mode!
[HTC Sensation] abdelfane:
Can anyone confirm if MHL adapters work for the kidigi dock or not? If not, can you point me to one that does work? Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] craigsdocks:
Perhaps they don't know whats in the docks they sell and just took a guess.

A HTC dock would never have magnets to trigger, that is a Motorola dock trigger.

HTC uses circuitry only
[HTC Sensation] fryrice8850:
never seen any motorola docks has magnets. I remember blackberry were the first to do this. Then the nexus one by HTC has the magnets, and now the galaxy nexus.
[HTC Sensation] def-g:
Great Dock!!

Bought the OEM one on eBay for $30US. Charges the phone super fast and great for watching movies, ect. Goes into dock mode once it's placed on the micro usb.

[HTC Sensation] cryptstyling:
I have the kidigi dock with HDMI and mini-USB.

It's a nice dock only there is no trigger mode for me.

Ok my rom is 4.0.3. so there is no dock modus on it. When i tested it with a GB with dock modus there also didn't trigger a thing.

There is another problem for me.

Overnight without charging the battery drains realy fast in the dock. In 3 hours there was a drain of 60%.

Maybe some other people have the same problems???
[HTC Sensation] Saggitarius206:
I have a similar problem. Sometimes i have the feeling, that even if i set the phone to loading only. It doesn't really charges, it only gets warm.

The dock is connected to my pc via USB 2.0, got to test USB 3.0 next time and the HTC USB charger.

Hi guys, a friend has got this tablet. Is there a guide for this to install recovery(cwm) and honeycomb?

I had a look but there so many models on this section but i need the hannspad sn10t13r1653.

Cheers
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kickinz1:
Normally you just need to boot in APX mode (Volume down + power for 2 second while powering it on) and download the package indicated in the post indicated at the bottom of this post.

Verify the number of partitions by doing:

./nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --getpartitiontable table.txt

Find in the table.txt file the partition number of SOS partition

For example if partition SOS is 11:

./nvflash -r --download 11 part9.img

For example if partition SOS is 9:

./nvflash -r --download 9 part9.img

if you screwed up your hannspad, just follow this thread (same zip file):

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisd1a1:
hi folks, i'm hoping someone can help.

i'm very interested in getting this tablet but i wanted a few honest views off users.

i'm not worried about Froyo, tbh there isn't a real difference to ginger, but the twin core build intrerests me more thatn the single core tables that are comming out.

have hannspree removed the phone apk's (etc) to improve power and memory management?

i don't play many games so i'm not worries about split second responsiveness but i've heard it can sometimes lag a bit, honestly how does the stock rom perform?

i wondered if anyone had tried go launcher or launcher plus and how the responsiveness compared to stock? screen responsiveness, typing etc?

also i'd be using this for video on the go, i don't watch HD but normal avi/divx, do they play ok?

i'd be very grateful if anyone would be willing to record a short video if the tablet in use so i could get an idea, the marketing vids are always a bit false;)

i'm been out of cooking for others about a year due to family matters (but still been home building for my HD2) while there are some mods over on slatedroid,theres nothing on XDA. if i get the tab i'll probably start playing with the rom and post a few slimmed down recovery versions. to see what we can start

regards and thanks in advance

Me to Hanspree

Hello, is there any ETA on when the Hannspad kernel source will be released?

There was a rumour suggesting you wouldn't release it. But I'm sure that's just a rumour because under the GPL which the open source Android platform is released under there must be a kernel release for legal reasons.

Look forward to your reply

Many thanks,

Hi,

A friend of mine has bought one of the Hannspree tablets but can't get the Bluetooth GPS APK to install on it.

He wants to connect the tablet to an external bluetooth GPS and I suggested a bluetooth GPS app that I'd used on a Samsung galaxy 1 because the built in GPS was crap.

Running the APK gives a dialog saying the install was not succesful.

Any ideas would be gratefully received.

Cheers.

i dont think this tab has a GPS unit, though maybe wifi GPS would be the way to go.

- Plays without problem, also HD, just make sure you use hardware accelerated player.

Can you recommend a hardware accelerated player? I have tried 5 or 6 from the market, some that claim hardware acceleration but none of them have been capable of playing 720p smoothly.

I thought it claimed to could do 1080p H.264?:confused:

I often have problem with updating app's with the new Market.

It says there is a update of a app available, but no button to run the update.

Anybody has the same experience?
[HTC Incredible S] doctorsax:
If there's more than one app to update, a button that says 'update all' (or something like that) appears in the top right corner. At least it does for me. Otherwise, if there's only one app to update you have to press it to go into the screen with an update button. That just seems to be the way the new Market works.
[HTC Incredible S] jkolner:
It's correct that if there's more then 1 update there is a "Update all" button.

But often when there's only 1 update and you go to the app, there's a "Open" and "Uninstall" button, and no "Update" button.

It works if i revert back to the old Market.
