So today I dropped my phone. It worked fine for the next two hours. Now its acting up. Ear piece wont wont at all, Speaker works fine and so do earbuds but the speaker wont work.... the thing is i used the phone for almost three hours after i dropped it ... so it worked for 6 phone calls then it decided to stop. I figured maybe something came loose inside so i cracked it open and everything was connected. Put it back together and at first the coloring was off. when it start the "Vibrant" was a purpleish color then flashed white then blue then green then it was white and now that issue is over but the ear piece still will not work. I dont have time to re-flash tonight i have work in 3 hours ha. Any suggestions so i dont have to have headphones with me all the time?? till i get a new phone?
[Vibrant General] darksandz93:
use the speaker phone? must've been quite a fall, im surprised you didn't crack your screen
[Vibrant General] ipeench:
Thats what I have been doing. It was about a 5foot fall, I used the phone a few seconds after that and it worked fine then i also used it about 20 minutes before it stopped working. Imma try some things today and see what happens.

If I could turn back time I will go to the exact day that I order my sensation. The worst HTC device in history for me. Can't wait to get s-off so i can fix this s**t phone and make it amazing. It all depends on you if you want to wait but you will need to wait for s-off and a new firmware to solve all the problems in this phone wish are a big list.
[HTC Sensation] stanleynhan:
loving my sensation ever since the day i bought it XD you could buy the one with the att frequencies if you wanted it on att but yet again you could also get the galaxy s2. i say get the sensation and just wait for s-off, itll be worth the wait
[HTC Sensation] robrob777:
After reading all the problems the Sensation has like:

Dust under screen

Touchscreen unresponsive

reboots

Deathgrip

LED notification almost invisible..

I have decided not to buy it, I had the cash in hand, everything planned to go after work to buy it, but i decided to check XDA.... I postponed my purchase.

keeping my HD2 until iP5 arrives or issues with this phone are fixed.
[HTC Sensation] xSunny:
Dust, Touchscreen, Reboots, DeathGrip, Led Notifications? The first 3 never happened.. Deathgrip only on Wi-Fi while in landscape, And Led notifications i dont use em so dont care =] Maybe i just got a good phone =]
[HTC Sensation] nccu_eagles:
issues reported on XDA are always overrated. I own 2 Sensations with no issues. I have four friends with Sensations who also have no problems. You must remember that people who have a phone that works great out of the box are not likely to start a thread saying "my sensation works great" but the people who have a negative experience will post my "buttons are stuck"...I can guarantee that more people have purchased a "problem free" Sensation than those who have purchased duds....Also if you are purchasing a Sensation for AT&T be sure to get the Canadian version so that you can use the 4G/3G otherwise you will be stuck with Edge
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
I've had the Ion, Nexus One, Droid 2, and Incredible. The Sensation is easily the best purchase I've ever made. Zero complaints and it's about to get even better with s-off.
[HTC Sensation] Sergio76:
Humm

My issues :

Reboots that happens a few times a day depending how much I use my phone.

Glitches on widgets 3rd party ones makes me restart sense a few times a day.

Touchscreen unresponsive sometimes.

WiFi death grip.

I dont believe this is dodgy hardware its all too do with firmware so not everyone will have same experience since we don't all use same firmware.

People are free to speak there issues that why this is XDA so we can help each other.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
My first 3 Sensations had various issues listed however out of the 5 I've seen in person, non have them have had dust under the screen. Eveb if it did, big deal. Return it for another. The one I'm using now is my 4th device and I have had it for 1 month with no issues at all. Not even the wifi deathgrip issue in landscape. My wife has a Sensation as well and hers has had zero issues as well. In the end, any device can have issues and if you get one that does, RETURN IT. I returned 4 G2X's until I got a bug free phone. Its really not that big of a deal.

That being said. The only thing I don't like about the Sensation is the new version of Sense. HTC is moving in the wrong direction and instead of making it less intrusive, there making it more intrusive. Another thing they did was add too much useless eye candy which clearly bogs down the device. It also seems as if they forgot to optimize it. I put ADW on my Sensation 1 month ago and haven't looked back. It has made my Sensation faster than my G2X which I thought was impossible. A phones UI really can't get any faster. Everything now is pretty much instant.
[HTC Sensation] Angelmsx:
I have zero issues with my sensation. I get good wifi signal even in landscape. No dust, no camera issues, and the led notification is plenty bright for me. I can actually see it through the grill. Great touch screen and very responsive. I haven't experienced any lag in the sense UI, I admit its not as smooth as my cm7 n1 or my captivate and atrix on launcher pro but its plenty fast for what it is. I have no regrets buying the sensation (bought it outright too) to replace my atrix. I've had my share of bad luck with other phones being lemons too but it seems I lucked out with this device.
[HTC Sensation] tuffgong01:
Deathgrip is experienced in some fashion on all phones... But it is annoying especially on this "flagship"....

No dust under my screen

Ive only experienced screen freeze a handful of times.

Notification LED is nothing like BB, but iphones have none.... Just sayin..

Reboots... Random ones..? Zero.. But they are random my im sleeping when this happens. Atleast I'm not pulling the battery every two hours like BB...
[HTC Sensation] Cbzeej:
There are a few issues out there. I'm actually on my 4th phone. 1st one kept freezing and headphone jack was tripping. I would tap the headphone jack and it would randomly start calling people. 2nd one would freeze way too much and the 3rd one, well, and I just wanted one with a screen with no scratches :p I'm hoping most of these issues will be fixed with a future firmware update.
[HTC Sensation] wombat131:
No issues at all.. I have this phone for over a month now and yes, I'm able to reproduce WiFi deathgrip, but only if I hold it in landscape in a very uncomfortable way.. great phone! :)

I think I may buy it and return it if these issues appear.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Yes, we are aware of the bugs/problems with the Sensation. Not all of them suffer from these bugs. If you don't want to deal with bugs, don't buy a smart phone.
[HTC Sensation] wombat131:
Nice one! Still, no offense, but it's madness that we let this happen by continuously buying 'flawed' smartphones.. Don't get me wrong, I've owned a few smartphones by now (touch pro, hero, desire and now sensation) but somewhere, it just nags me..
[HTC Sensation] forelli:
I second that. Being in Europe I should have bought an european Sensation. For 400 euros I got an asian Sensation (not the Hong Kong version!) and the only issues are Sense restarting once in a while and the phone getting hot from time to time while charging. I also have to nention that mibe us OC to 1512 MHz with On demand governor. Software: 1.35.707.1

I love my sensation. No problems at all except for the battery life but once I did the battery calibration a few times, my battery life improve and every once in a while the death grip with the wifi only in landscape mode. I don't regret the purchase at all. The best phone so far
[HTC Sensation] Spekko:
+1 also no issues with my sensation, just a MINOR thing with the back cover comming a VERRY little loose on the one side, but i put a tiny piece of paper underneath and its perfect now, no complaints, no dust, no death grip... im sure if everyone made threads of good working sensations we would have way more than the faulty threads... u just unlucky if u get problems
[HTC Sensation] messer19:
Buy Sensation. The only problem I ever had were random reboots, but it didn´t happen for the last few weeks so I think everything works fine now. Perfect phone simply doesn´t exist. I´m in s-off waiting club either and I´m sure devs solve most of the current issues.
[HTC Sensation] cheesekeeper:
A little surprised to hear you say that - even with the stock ROM I'm pretty impressed with mine. As good as it is now, I can't even imagine what it will be able to do once you're done with it. HTC should use that in their advertising: "The new S-OFF Sensation, as owned by Sergio76." To anyone who knows your name, that would have to be its biggest selling point. :D

The stock ROM definitely doesn't do the platform justice - the hardware specs are excellent, so the performance is definitely nowhere near what it's capable of. But once it has been properly tweaked, it should be awesome.....
[HTC Sensation] minski.1:
I have no wait for sensation, i buy it. :-)
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
For the sake of accuracy, here is what is really going on in the two main 'problem' threads on the 1st page.

The 'dust' thread has 505 posts spread among 145 users. The top 15 posters (10%) account for 49.1% of total posts in that thread. So 15 people make up HALF of the discussion of that supposed massive problem.

The 'touchscreen' thread has 544 posts spread among 196 users. The top 15 posters (7.5%) account for 50.2% of total posts in that thread. So again, 15 people make up HALF of the discussion.

Further, there are 26,427 posts in this forum in total, only 4% of which are found in those threads. Perception is not quite reality here. The vast majority of us do not have these issues and are not starting threads to say so. There is no recall being made by HTC. It is available is multiple countries with likely hundreds of thousands of users already.

The only concession I will make is the 'deathgrip' which any smartphone user knows has been a problem of varying degrees among all manufacturers. It can be worked around just like past deathgrips.

All in all, this kinda reminds me of the early days in the Nexus One forum but with a few more children starting 'look at me' threads. In the early days over there we had whining about reception, dust, touchscreen sensitivity, and soft-touch wear. A year and a half later barely anyone is talking about all of that but instead they're just in love with the device and struggling to find reasons to leave it. I'm quite positive once s-off hits and the development explosion takes shape, we'll look back on these days and laugh that anyone cared.
[HTC Sensation] claud_face:
Lol I was quite shocked reading his comment as well. All I'm waiting for is your amazing rom!!!
[HTC Sensation] DaDoctor:
LOL, dont worry about that guy bro, sensation forums are filled with newbs!

Anyways, back to the question

Well my friend, it depends. If I was in your shoes I would wait for the Holiday for the following reasons:

+ Holiday and Sensation are the same specs, except screen.

+ Holiday has a bigger screen which is fantastic in my opinion.

+ Holiday is shipped with 2.3.4 (which we would probably have on sensation once we get S-Off)

+ Sensation will not work on AT&T's frequency so you will not be able to get 3G and you will be stuck on edge (unless you get a sensation that uses same freq)

+ You would probably get a better deal on Holiday since you are a current customer of AT&T (assuming ur eligible for upgrade)

+ You dont have much longer to wait as the rumors are that holiday is comin next month. Might be only rumors though...

The only disadvantage you might miss on is being able to run CoreDroid ROMs on it hehehe :D

Good luck with your decision.
[HTC Sensation] ctscloud:
Nice try, but throwing numbers doesn't do much at all. It just shows that there is an issue with the phone and with so few having the issue, htc won't do anything about it.
[HTC Sensation] cheesekeeper:
Seems like a pretty good analysis to me. There are without a doubt some people who have issues with their phone. But, take a browse around the other forums and see if you can find a single device which doesn't have hundreds of posts bagging how crap they are.

If you used these forums as a guide, there's probably not a single smartphone on the market that's even vaguely worth owning. But fact is I've owned several smartphones, and they've all been excellent. There will always be people with problems, and they will always be the ones generating tons of posts complaining about how crap their phone is........
[HTC Sensation] Sean3:
That would be a disadvantage indeed :D Which is why I opted for the sensation after my Inspire bit the dust.
[HTC Sensation] ctscloud:
Yes, his analysis is right and that's what I think also. I'm not saying any of it is wrong. But you missed the point, given the issue is small in terms of sheer numbers, it's less likely the carrier and htc will do to help. We can say anything we want on forums but it doesn't really translate to much of the carrier and htc helping with people with phone issues (like myself). Hope you can understand my point.
[HTC Sensation] DaDoctor:
Unless you get the Z710A model which does support AT&T's frequency. Here check out this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1170584

[HTC Sensation] BBOOZE:
I will admit. I love my Sensation, but the continued inability to root it is really grinding. I think the phone is fine, as-is, but it would be way better to root it and at least get rid of the junk. Will be my last HTC phone if they don't come thru quick with S-off.

The up side to the sensation for me its the dev support...I flash my inspire every chance I get...as for the Holiday its going to be AT&T's first LTE phone, but the wait is endless...if it twirly truely is next month, they are keeping a right seal on the release date...thanks again...might make my decision when the sensation gets root...

I love my Sensation. No problem at all. Better WiFi than my previous smartphons and best screen. qHD resolution is great. Actually I prefer it to my Desire amoled screen. And no dust, no lag. Just works :)
[HTC Sensation] Bsketball:
My issues are terrible WiFi connection (including the fingers-near-back grip) and stupidly buggy touchscreen. I see the touchscreen being fixed with software (hopefully), but the crappy WiFi seems to be a hardware issue, which sucks quite frankly.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
So its safe to sat that all smart phones from all manufacturers have issues? That seems to be the ongoing theme. Unless you know of a smart phone that recently released with no issues?
[HTC Sensation] ctscloud:
If there were no issues, then we'd have the answer to cancer and AIDS, or even better, no diseases. So I'm not sure where you're going with that question, other than to put up an argument.

I'm not surprised there are issues, that's the nature of the market for phones among other things. However, there is a threshold wherein it doesn't make sense to have multiple issues with very little post purchase support from either the carrier or HTC, given the price for the phone and such. This is mainly because of the notion that 'most' do not have the issue. Perhaps it's too much to expect a near perfect or perfect phone, but who doesn't strive to be the best? I don't have a problem with products having issues, however, this is where the customer support is supposed to come in to help assist their customers who are in the minority. By the way, you spelled say wrong.
[HTC Sensation] robrob777:
Probably, but new HTC devices have more issues IMO

I bought the ip3gs in the release week, and no problems, I gave it to my GF..almost 2+ yrs and still great.

IP4 even with the "antennagate" issue was much better than the death grip that the sensation appear to have. in IP4 you had to short the antenna, and any case will fix it.

Motorola defy, also I bought it for my Mom in the release date, no hw issues. so far almost 8 months.

HD2, the one I use right now, bought it in the release week, no HW issues, however software WM6.5 is terrible.

later, bc WM was making my life impossible...HTC G2 bought it 2 weeks after release and it had very loose KBoard, sound was very quiet, led on the optic pad was useless. had to return it, and I don't usually return stuff.

Now I want to upgrade to sensation but there are HW issues. I use a lot of wifi, and if it has death grip..i wont keep it.

I searched for a fix and only found a video... I cannot do this to this $602 usd phone I'm planning to buy.

I don't have any of those issues or any issues in fact. Maybe I just got a great model? I find no lag, touchscreen is perfect, no dust either
[HTC Sensation] nccu_eagles:
LMBO he meant Saturday duh :D
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
I'm just saying. Don't act like the Sensation is the only phone with bugs right now. I'm using 3 phones at this point and all of them have issues. The phone has been out for less than 2 months. Of course there is no support for it yet. Its taking manufacturers an average of 3 months to update.

And no I didn't spell "say" wrong. My phone auto completed it wrong. It was a miss type. How old are you anyway that you have to play Mr. English teacher? There is no more room on XDA for people like you that doesn't contribute a damn thing and instead goes around correcting peoples spelling errors or what you think are spelling errors. You would think that one would see I replied with my phone and it was a miss type rather than a sleeping error. Then again, from the looks of your previous posts, that would be expecting a little to much. :-)
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
New HTC devices have more issues than what? Obviously you never owned a LG device and definitely not the G2X. The only company right now that is doing things right is Samsung. They stepped the game you with there GSII and have already released multiple updates. If you ask me. Samsung is the new Android manufacture to beat.
[HTC Sensation] ctscloud:
Lol I find your post very funny. There's no point in arguing with someone who won't listen to reason and just replies with content that doesn't add to the discussion.

Back on topic, to op, I would get the phone, you shouldn't run into most of these problems mentioned around the forums. I am doing a warranty exchange on mines so hopefully it'll work out when it gets here.
[HTC Sensation] esincho:
Guess I lucked up because in not having all the reported problems. Just the touch screen tripping when laying flat and charging.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Doesn't add to the topic at hand? That's rich coming from you. I like how you beat around the bush and never answered my question. By the way, I was adding my opinion to a topic you brought up about problems with the Sensation. Its not my fault you can't open your eyes and realize that all phones are releasing with problems. If you don't want to deal with bugs then don't buy a new smartphone.

There's one thing you realize after owning over 10 smart phones in 3 years. THEY ALL SHIP WITH BUGS. If your thick head can't comprehend something so simple, then maybe the smart phone market isn't for you.

We all know about the bugs plaguing the Sensation. You aren't bringing anything new to the board.

KTHNXBYE!
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
We all get lucky. I got lucky after 3 attempts with my Sensation and 5 attempts with my G2X. I will return a phone as many times as needed in order to get one with minimal or no bugs at all.
