I'm not using es explorer, but you need to mount the system as r/w. Don't know if you can do that with es explorer. I always delete it, as I don't use it. But anyone not having root explorer should buy it. You will never regret. It's my favorite App of all. And permissions should be set as every other App. You could also set permission in cwm recovery under advanced.
[HTC Sensation] offenberg:
Set permissions like the other apps in your system. But it might not work if it is a stock odexed Rom.
[HTC Sensation] suhaimidee:
I found the settings to enable root and mount on es explorer. And got it replaced! Thanks offenberg for the apk :)

Put the file in system app and reboot but still 4x4
[HTC Sensation] mgear356:
+4..

Please make a homescreen 5 x 4 please..
[HTC Sensation] offenberg:
Then you must have done something wrong. Mount system as r/w copy the rosie to system/app and set permissions like the other apk's in your system. Then reboot.
[HTC Sensation] regificus:
+5...

It would be very nice to have a 5x4 or 5x5 Homescreen, thanks in advice
[HTC Sensation] xredshark:
perfect! works really well!
[HTC Sensation] zoth:
5 x 4 would be really awsome. Wish someone could do it.:D
[HTC Sensation] wesleyvdbrink:
Changed perm to rw r r

Owner same as other apps

Reboot (shutdown and pulled out battery)

But stil 4x4

EDIT: thought it was for home screen :) menu is working now, Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] mexxxico:
On the screen qHD (540x960) resolution you'd pushed 5x4 on the homescreen?!?

I can not believe it.

Is not it logical to place the 4x5? 5x6?

P.S.

5x5 or 5x4 I think it would be problematic because of the widgets as well, but I think the 4x5 is less work. already have an icon too far apart in height
[HTC Sensation] offenberg:
I must agree. Sense widgets are designed for 4x4. It would look very bad if you changed that. If its even possible. Everything is possible, but it makes no "sense" making an effort.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisOliver:
I decided to try out custom ringtones in Mango beta 2, and I realized that a lot of ringtones are missing that were in NoDo. I used to use one called Quietly Brilliant(or something like that) because I thought it was the best one. Now I have to find a custom ringtone because the current ones are terrible.

Is this the same for everyone, or just me?

Edit: I've found the ringtone for download, and I think it's a HTC only ringtone, so I won't get them back until RTM Mango is released...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ttblondey:
HTC ringtone?you mean dl from their website?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisOliver:
Nahh, not from HTC's website. I meant when an OS gets given to HTC, they might of added a selection of their own ringtones..

Obviously I could be wrong, but I thought it was a HTC ringtone because it's called Quietly Brilliant and that's what HTC's tag line thing is.

With my S-OFF & rooted HTC Sensation 4G with Stock US Rom (T-Mobile)... USB Tethering does not work for some reason... (I see windows phone on device manager with exclamation mark)

Procedure:

1. I plug the phone via usb to the pc... I get the "Choose a Connection Type" screen on the phone...

2. I choose "USB Tethering" and voila... nothing happens besides getting "Android Phone" with exclamation mark on device manager...

-> Drivers do work perfectly for every other android phone (like inspire 4g with CM7, infuse 4g rooted with stock rom, and HD2 with CM7)

any help would be great! Remember USB tethering works flawlessly on other devices... Only issue is with Sensation... (happens on my 3 computers, same issue only with sensation...
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
try the usb tethering driver HERE. It's needed for USB tethering of the mt4g so may work for the sensation too. Won't hurt to try.

[HTC Sensation] mbushnaq00:
I know many ppl may disagree with my decision, but I have been using the SGS2 for 2 months now and I was not impressed with the quality. The built quality is really cheap were I have a small crack next to the power button and the phone never fell!!! Also the signal drops and heat issue make things worse.

The only alternative now is the HTC Sensation. I noticed ppl were complaining about the death grip and lag in the browser, but I think ppl are over reacting and its not big of an issue.

Anyway what I like most of the Sensation is the Sense UI, and the amazing built quality, compared to the SGS2, the Sensation has a way better feel in the hand.

What do you guys think?
[HTC Sensation] PdtS:
Welcome to the world of notification LEDs! :)
[HTC Sensation] kirdroid:
I have both and they are great in their own way. Yes sensation users also have retorted problems like over heating, signal issues etc. Honestly all these issues look common to all high end dual core phones.

Build quality is better with sensation and feels nice to hold in the hand.

Performance is better with sgs2 and feels much snappier than sensation even with out sense. Altough in everyday use it isn't that noticeable.

Display is better with sgs2 by a long margin according to me.

Many sensation users have reported wifi issues, but for me wifi with sensation is way faster than sgs2.

With the same number of apps, battery is better in sgs2 than compared to sensation. Maybe sense is the culprit here, I don't know but I'm not turning off sense as I like the eye candy it brings :)

Mobile network wise, I get similar speeds with att 3g network.

Finally keep the one which you like most. Looks you like the sensation more, then go for it.
[HTC Sensation] moh0:
Death grip is a real issue brother. But yeah the browser is buttery smooth imo. The Sensation feels AWESOME in the hand, Aluminum body and has really nice heft to it. I'm sure you won't regret getting it.
[HTC Sensation] mbushnaq00:
I wasnt impressed with the over-hyped screen, the yellowish tint and the banding makes it look really bad, it looses the "cleanness" or "pureness" of the screen. In addition the screen gets a burn in affect very quickly.

I dont think droping calls would be a common thing in high end smartphones. In my SGS2, I would say 40% of my calls gets dropped and I get a no signal sign in the notification bar. Also the heating is really bad to an extent that u cant carry the phone with your hands anymore! Plus when it gets REALLY hot, the application running would crash in several minutes.
[HTC Sensation] kirdroid:
For me I don't have dropped call issue in SGS2, yellow tint not noticeable to me in normal use, banding irritates me sometimes. I mean we can go on discussing pros and cons in both of them. There are similar threads in both the forums and eventually it leads to a flame war.

If you are asking about buying a sensation in this forum, you are going to get favorable responses towards sensation, the same applies in sgs2 forums as well.

The best thing is to read thru sensation general forums and see what issues users are complaining about and then try out yourself to see if those happen to you or if you can live with that :D
[HTC Sensation] mbushnaq00:
Yes you are right, but I posted in the sensation forum because I need more convincing in buying it, as I already have the SGS2 and I know what is the device like.
[HTC Sensation] moto211:
My favorite thing about my sensation is the qHD screen. For me, I really enjoy the extra screen real estate. Also, I think the colors on the sensation screen look very true to life. On the other hand I've noticed that most AMOLED screens of all types (AMOLED, AMOLED+, SAMOLED+) produce colors that are so vibrant that they look unreal.
[HTC Sensation] matejm1994:
Hi, I also have Sesation. I have no problems with it. Well, dead grip is noticeable, but you must hold it in the right top corner to lose one dot of signal. I have no problems with it.

And of corset Sense is much more beautifull than touchwiz.

Before I have bought Sensation, I compare both phones in the shop. And it isn't secret, that Sensation feel much better in hand than SGS2. And in my opinion build quality of sensation is more important than SGS2 is for 0.001 ms faster :)

But there is one thing I don't like about sensation. And this is battery. I have to charge it every day. And i am not heavy user.
[HTC Sensation] The Radius Kid:
If I was in your shoes,I would give it a while and see what else pops up.

Yes I own a Sensation and do like most things about it.

I do feel they rushed it to market to beat the Samsung intro.

The new I Phone should be out shortly and I'm thinking the new Blackberry.

There may be an "updated" Sensation as well.

You can bet they've been watching and learning from the Sensation.

Patience will be your ally here.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
I like the Sensation but will be buying what ever SGSII variant T-Mobile gets. The browser on my Sensation has never been laggy. In fact, I think its pretty fast. Faster than my G2X. Where the phone lags is in its ****ty Sense UI. HTC added to much eye candy to it resulting in a boggy feel.

Like I said, I like the Sensation but I really like the direction Samsung is going with Android.
[HTC Sensation] pwasad1:
Welcome to the Sensation. I really love this phone and i expect you will too. The SGSII is a great phone but i find in the long run build quality is one of the most important features cuz you can always flash a new rom if you're not liking the way your phones running. the only downside to coming over is that the development is still growing so you'll have a little bit of a wait if you like changing up your roms a lot. but you definitely wont be dissapointed!
[HTC Sensation] Clivectmob:
Hi, for what its worth, I've had both too, most of what pol have said on here is true. Each phone has its pro's and cons, but I will say, I moved from the sgs2 to the sensation, and have moved back to the sgs2 again. For me, the build quality of the sensation isn't any better than the sgs2, due to the stupid battery cover arrangement on the sensation. And the issue with dust on the sensation speaks volumes about build quality. Just cos there is a piece of aluminium involved doesn't make it better specifically. Actually, from a radio point of view its just plain stupid, as ppl are now realizing.
[HTC Sensation] Teso Dos Bichos:
I was very close to buying a Sensation but I opted for the Galaxy S2. My reasoning being that the Sensation is not optimised, Sense is bloat and the device is locked. I was simply not prepared to wait months to get a stable ROM. I liked the build of the Sensation, the screen resolution and the prospect of the asynchronous processor but I considered it futile to buy a Sensation at that point. If I were in your position I would stick with the Galaxy S2 and wait to see what happens. When the Sensation finally gets unlocked and there are good ROM options available which help to get the most out of the hardware then make your decision. By the time that happens there might be a better option available for you.
[HTC Sensation] robstunner:
it is unlocked.

LeeDroid is stable so far for me

Screen res makes up for the SAMOLED+. What i hated about the SGS2 was the fact that the pictures i took looked AMAZING on the phones beautiful screen yet when i uploaded them looked not-as-good on the mac.

I would get the sensation, and if you dont like it you can get a SGS2 in a trade AND make some money on top. A few Sensation owners have netted SGS2+$100.
[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
In the UK, the Sensation is 375 GBP and the SGS2 is 400 GBP and the SGS2's been out longer. You can pick up a Sensation on eBay for $450 while SGS2's are going for over $600. There are some idiots that bought SGS2's to use on T-Mobile so maybe one of them made a stupid swap out of desperation but the Sensation's not worth more than an SGS2 just about anywhere.
[HTC Sensation] robstunner:
Two did on this very board. Withing the US though.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
I tell people this all of the time man. Just because a battery cover is aluminum, doesn't mean the phone is built better than one with a plastic cover. You don't see buttons falling off the GSII like you see on the Sensation. Your also 100% correct about the cell cignal along with every other signal passing through plastic easier than metals. Samsung uses plastic for a reason. Its light and it provides the end user with the most important aspect of a cell phone. Signal strength! The most rigid smart phone I've ever owned was the Vibrant. It lasted through over 50 fires and numerous drops. I always let it in my shirt pocket while at work and after coming out of a fire, it was usually wet. My Nexus One didn't even make it through 5 fires.
[HTC Sensation] riz157:
Got both, out of the box sg2 works more flawlessly. Sensation looks better, love the led miss that on the sg2. Camera prefer sg2 more. Like the sense UI hate touchwiz. Internet is definitely much smoother and faster on the sg2. It's easier to navigate through text on sensation, edit copy paste cut works better on sensation.

HTC software works better and functions are more polished. I was very happy with sg2 but after using HTC don't think will be going back sg2, especially as I have flashed ROM sensation works even better.
[HTC Sensation] The Janitor Mop:
In my eyes, the only things the Sensation has over the GS2 are build quality, screen res, UI, and the LED. The problem is that all these advantages are mitigated. Build quality is mitigated by the fact that it ruins signal (and realistically, a ton of people, myself included, put a cover on the phone, so we don't even feel/see the back of the phone). Screen res is mitigated by the fact that the screen is an outdated LCD and is pathetic in sunlight. Sense 3.0 is mitigated by the fact that it's laggy as heck. I guess the LED is the only thing not mitigated by anything lol.

I wanted the SGS2, but it seems like T-Mobile will be getting a variant of it in the U.S. that isn't as highly spec'd. That's realistically the only reason I got the Sensation (not the phone I wanted, but it was the best I could do).

I've had a good old dig around the internet and can also say that Vodafone AUS is/planning to develop a 2.3 update for Mini pro.

Source: Vodafone Aus - Blog: http://blog.vodafone.com.au/blog/device-software-wrap-up-110804/

(they actually say, "Testing has not been scheduled yet. We anticipate testing in 6 weeks") and the blog is updated every week, so keep your eyes peeled

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ThiaagoFelix:
cool. Waiting for it.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] flex96:
"

The blog post lists various handsets and two Sony Ericsson phones, the Xperia X10 and the X10 Mini Pro. The post says that the X10 is currently on 1.6 and that 2.3 is currently being tested and is due to be completed in about 2 weeks. When it comes to the X10 Mini though, the company say that the testing hasn’t been scheduled yet but, that they anticipate testing it in 6 weeks time.

Sony Ericsson have already said they will not be updating the X10 Mini, X10 Mini Pro or X8. So either Vodafone Australia have got this wrong, or Sony Ericsson have done a u-turn on what they’ve previously said. Due to Sony Ericsson’s previous statements, either scenario could be likely as Sony Ericsson previously announced that those handsets along with the Xperia X10 would not be updated past Android 2.1 but, Sony Ericsson changed their mind with the X10 and said 2.3 would be released and was pushed out last week to handsets.

We’ll be keeping our eyes on the Vodafone blog and Sony Ericsson blog to see if any thing is adjusted or any announcements are made. We at SE-Xperia hope that Vodafone are correct though."

there is a slight chance that this is what they're being told to say. as already mentioned, They made a u-turn on the X10 which to indicate that they do have some feelings..

this is also same that is mentioned in vodafone site so that means vodafone by mistake revealed what sonyericsson dont want to revealed right now...

i think something is cooking...

sonyericsson keep saying no for x10 also but after releasing arc they agreed i think same they can do for x10 mini series also as no xperia mini is out & definately they can came up with 2.3 as many other competitors provide same android version for same typ of processor...
