Wait, so you guys are changeing your Sensation XE (with Beats) for the Samsung Galaxy S II?

I'm planning on getting the Sensation XE as a gift for someone, please let us know why you are changing, aside from what else you have mentioned, as it would greatly affect my decision on whether to get the XE or the iphone4s. Thanks. Really appreciate any reply.
[General Questions and Answers] :
I took my sensation back. The reason I'm trading for the gs2 is because the sensation has shoddy headphone jacks, dust under the screen and htc seems to not care nor acknowledge the reports....

I never wanted anything other than an htc, but these problems changed my mind. Samsung seems to make some pretty nice phones and I'll gladly take samoled over qhd.The memory is awesome too, 16gb + my 32gb card = 48gb for whatever and I like having lots of music and can keep my card just for music.

Last reason = sensation xe and sensation xl. Htc releases a flagship phone and within months announce a rehash (upgrade) and I feel they kinda screwed their customers who signed a 2 year for their (flagship) phone already.

Final note = The sgs2 looks great and is a phone that actually makes me excited to get. The sensation never did that for me and I only got it cause I was tired of the hd2.
[General Questions and Answers] dimitrie:
I have the Sensation 4g but I'm using the Android Revolution HD rom so its shows up as the XE (I'm guessing the other guy is using it too). The only reason I'm returning the Sensation 4G is because of the dust that showed up under the screen (a lot people seem to have this problem http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1114612) and creaking case which occurred after taking off the battery cover 2 times (a common problem too). Other than these 2 problems the phone is amazing, but after exchanging the phone 3 times and the problems reoccuring I've had enough.

You might wanna check the forum to see if the XE has these problems too.

Are you getting the T-Mobile version or the international one? If you're getting the T-Mobile one, do you know if the resolution is as bad as people are making it seem?
[General Questions and Answers] :
I've seen videos of the t-mobile version and I think the screen looks great.

I'm getting the t-mobile version. I'll take a flawless phone with a better screen and lower res over what I've experienced with the sensation..
[General Questions and Answers] dimitrie:
I got my 3rd replacement Sensation 6 days ago. Would I still have to pay the 50 dollar restocking fee if I wanna exchange if for the SG2 ? Or will it be free because it hasn't been 14 days?
[General Questions and Answers] :
Idk. I returned mine to Walmart and get a full refund. I was on day 14.
[General Questions and Answers] barondebxl:
That's not true, the T-mobile galaxy s. 2 has a snapdragon asynchronous CPU and an 1850 Mah battery and guess what? The battery life isnt as good as the AT&T or the sprint galaxy s 2 which have the exynos processor which is synchronous.
[General Questions and Answers] g_says:
I recently had the epic touch on sprint but switched to tmobile to get the sensation. The problem I had with it was the fact that the battery takes so long to charge up. For me that's pretty annoying. Also as I was using the epic touch as my GPS, the battery still was draining even though it was plugged into the car charger. (I know I didn't have a faulty battery because my sister has the infuse 4g on at&t and it had the same problem---super longer charge time and draining while plugged in).
[TouchPad General] Blank2k2:
I'm using the Advanced Browser, while its a step above the stock browser, I'm afraid its just not good enough to be the device I reach for.

First, it's become increasingly annoying at how often it asks me to login to facebook / forums & I've not been able to find a way to make it remember my login details.

Secondly, the speed of Flash content on facebook/miniclip/gala/lottery etc websites make it pretty unusable.

Last but not least, some websites seem to just keep refreshing constantly. (example: Sky.com/shop)

These are just the main 3 issues i've ran into while trying to "show off" the device to people - and ultimately, end up running to the laptop in order to do what was asked.

So, does anyone know patches/fixes or even a new browser for the touchpad?

[Atrix 4G General] d_a_n_payne:
Before I updated to 2.3.4, I was happily rooted...lol...also, for some reason, the phone wouldnt connect with my computer...like when I plugged it into the usb, the phone screen lights up but absolutely nothing else happens...nothing pops up on my comp nor does the phone say its charging...it wasnt a problem then, tho

Now that I am updated to 2.3.4, I am stuck with no way of rooting it...no wireless tether, no screenshot, etc...so I was wondering if there is any way of rooting it without the computer? Or connecting thru the phone portal somehow?

Thanks for any help! I just really need the wireless tether!
[Atrix 4G General] d_a_n_payne:
FYI: I believe the problem I am having with connecting to my comp has something to do with the fact that one drunken night I was trying to charge my phone with a friends cord, that was either messed up or not meant for charging, and I attempted to jam it in my phone over and over...I think I was wigglin it a good bit too...lol...i know its stupid but I freak out when my phone goes dead:rolleyes:

[HTC Sensation] grkmafioso:
Hey everyone, I have a Tmo Sensation 4g. I took all the proper steps to root the phone and wiped my stock rom off before flashing the Android Revolution 3.3 HD rom as well as changed to the radio that he recommended. However, it seems that my 4g is not available. Prior to flashing I had 4g nearly everywhere and now I only have 3g. Anyone have the same problem? Is there a fix?
[HTC Sensation] rick@uswirelessla.com:
Should post in Q&A but check the area that talks about RIL's and install the one that is ends in 169. I don't have any problems with my TMUSA sensation with this rom and also check if you get the H that is also a symbol for 4G

[HTC Sensation] TheDeadCPU:
hehe.. This is because T-Mobile lies and puts a 4G icon when you have 3G.
[HTC Sensation] ionballer:
Don't be dumb, this is not development. Your phone is 4G, 4G is 3g but it's just tmobile advertising there 4th generation connection. You get faster download speeds on 4G but on euro build roms they only have 3g. You should get a H logo when you are using data such as downloading, browsing the Internet ect. Which H stands for hsap + which is 4G. Sorry to be so mean it's just a very old topic just should of been posted in q and a not here.

Sent from my Sensation running Leedroid Sensational 2.3
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
Seriously, the 4g icon and the H icon, are just that.. Icons used to represent your data speed. It is not your actual data speed. If I wanted to I can create a mod that will replace the icon to Edge to represent 4G speeds, but it won't mean I'll be on edge.

[G2 and Desire Z General] itm:
I'm running MIUI, and want to get rid of the default notification that Tasker always generates, even when no profile is active. Does anyone know of a way of suppressing these notifications?
[G2 and Desire Z General] waydownsouth:
From within Tasker:

Settings => Monitor => Run in foreground (uncheck)

Although, this raises the possibility that Android will kill off the Tasker monitor service when resources are getting low...

The better alternative:

Settings => Monitor => Notification Icon

You can set it to transparent so it doesn't appear in the notification bar, but, the entry will remain in the notification area & Android won't be as likely to kill it off.

Next to those options you can tap the ? icon which explains it pretty well

[HTC Sensation] Kremnari:
My sensation recently developed the touchscreen issue. It having previously been s-off/revolutioned/supercid, I thought it best to undo these things before sending it in for warranty. I ran the appropriate TMOUS RUU_***.exe, but now I cannot access the bootloader at all.

The vol down + power on does not work, it just boots normally.

Adb can't access the device (probably because I can't enable usb debugging).

I had previous changed the superCID back to stock, so that should be find, but the secureoem flag (whichever it is) i believe is still unset (or just not to 3).

Any suggestions?

Thanks XDA

Kremnari
[HTC Sensation] tpbklake:
Go into Settings -> Power and disable the Fastboot checkbox. That is what is preventing you from getting to HBOOT by holding the Volume Down/Power button. Also Under Settings -> Applications -> Development is the USB debugging checkbox.
[HTC Sensation] Kremnari:
Sorry, I should've been more specific. My touchscreen issue is that it's completely unresponsive. So I am unable to change any of the settings.

Is there a rom that would already have usb debugging and/or fastboot off enabled?
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
most new ones do have usb debug enabled, but not fastboot off...but if you cant access bootloader, how are you gonna flash another one?

EDIT* another alternative is to try something like this http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/org.l6n.remand/

there are several *better* variations of it on the market, you can use your pc mouse to control your fone, must have root tho
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
Try this:

- Disconnect your phone from USB.

- Plug off the battery and put it again.

- Hold Volume Down and Power button.

If that doesn't work, try flashing RUU again and repeat the above steps.

Good luck :D
[HTC Sensation] Kremnari:
Usb debug is not enable because adb can't access the device.

You are correct in this matter. My lapse was with the ruu's being able to flash the phone without fastboot or adb. Which brings up an important (somewhat off-topic) point...is anybody attempting to determine how the RUU's are able to communicate with the phone without using the adb?

This is unsuccessful. I have tried both builds of the RUU for tmo.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks anyways so far guys!
[HTC Sensation] mwie:
For me pulling the battery was always the way to enter the bootloader... It bypasses the set fastboot option.

As this is not working for you - is the volume down button broken as well?
[Nook Touch General] ryanpl:
I've been using Zeam 2.8.8 as my desktop launcher and think it's great for our Nooks. I am having a problem when trying to remove large widgets, i.e 4x2, 2x3. I long press the widget and drag it to the trash can, I'm not that stupid, but when it's in the right spot the widget and trashcan are supposed to both turn red. Problem is on a grayscale like Nook there is no visiable change in color. Is there an app I can use to remove the widget? I've been looking for an app the past three days but not lucky. I also am using ES File manager which allow sys access. Is the wedget listed somewhere in the system files so I can delete it? Go Launcher is more better in terms of widget removal.

[HTC EVO 3D] housry23:
Hey cheesy, I know this is off topic & i'm sorry about that, but I have a question for you. Since we live in the same town, I was wondering if you had any problems making calls on Sprint yesterday(Friday, Sept. 2nd). It worked fine on Thursday, then when I got off work on Friday, I tried to call someone & I got an error. It said "we are unable to complete your call at this time. Please try again later". I reverted back to a stock ROM & it started working, and then flashed back to Synergy and it still worked, so I don't know if that fixed it or if Sprint towers were down in or area & they got them fixed at the same time I was doing my fix.
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:

Edit. I see your using a transformer. I'm getting a new toy soon and that may be it (still gotta run that by the wife). If you had the choice to get ANY tab would it be the transformer? Because I may own one by the end of the month.

[HTC EVO 3D] housry23:
No I didn't update my PRL.

I would definitely get the Transformer if I had to do it again, but if I were thinking of buying right now I would advise to wait a couple months until the Tegra 3 devices come out. I'm pretty sure Asus is going to release one with the quad core Tegra 3 by the end of the year.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickytenzer:
I can't seem to be getting any answers from this forum, mainly because I assume it's an advanced question, but I'll try again.

A few nights ago, I was trying to update Busybox using Stericson's app from the market, but it failed and said there is now 2 versions installed. Ever since then, I have had issues with downloading from the market OVER WIFI (3G works just fine).

Logically, I can only assume this has to do with the screwed up installation of Busybox as the issue appeared quite literally after I tried to upgrade.

Since then, I've tried wiping EVERYTHING and starting from scratch. Flashing a pure stock ROM, using CWM to unmount and wipe everything, but nothing seems to work. And the annoying thing is that "Root Checker" from the market tells me that I still have Busybox installed:

"Installed Busybox Version:

Busybox is not sharing its version information

Busybox supports the following applets:

Busybox is not sharing its supported applets"

Can that be right? Should wiping everything get rid of all remnants of Busybox? If not, then how can I? I can't rightly use adb or root explorer as those require root/busybox to begin with to gain access to that depth of the system...

Someone please guide me in the right direction. I'm afraid that this might be a hardware issue at this point... :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickytenzer:
Logcat with a download that doesn't start gives me this:

W/DownloadManager( 2982): Aborting request for download 14: while trying to execute request: java.net.UnknownHostException: xt-vdt-yul1.v13.lscache2.c.android.clients.google.com

Which according to this http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/net/UnknownHostException.html means that the IP address of the host could not be determined.

Does this mean that the market can't figure out what IP address I'm on to download to?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Busybox comes as default via cf root.

And it's highly unlikely to be related to your problem.

As far as your download problem, i am not sure, what version of the market are you using? Have you tried the newer version? Have you tried clearing all of the market data.

Settings, applications, manage applications
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickytenzer:
Thanks for replying. There are 2 reasons why I'm concerned that I screwed something up in trying to update Busybox:

1) It told me that the installation was messed up and that there were 2 of them installed

2) Upon a FRESH install of a STOCK ROM, Root Checker tells me that it's installed, when it really shouldn't be (or so I believe).

As for Market version, I've tried 3.1.3 and the previous generation before that (the stock on the SGS2). I've cleared Market data and download manager data multiple time. I'm able to OCCASIONALLY get a download to work over WiFi. Very rarely though, and it ALWAYS works on 3G.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickytenzer:
I will literally pay the person $50 who finds a fix for me. I'm so desperate.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Are you sure its not the router?

Have you tried setting a static IP address for the phone?

What rom are you on?

If you have CWM recovery, you have busybox.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickytenzer:
I can't be 100% sure that it's not the router, as I have yet to try another one. But like I said, the timing of this issue has to be related to that bad install of Busybox, as it was LITERALLY right after that this problem started. The Busybox installer told me the installation screwed up, and right after that I couldn't download over WiFi.

As for static IP address, I setup DHCP to give my phone a different IP address than normal (.101 instead of .109) and it still doesn't work.

As for ROM, I'm currently running STOCK KH3. Stock kernel as well.

:(

This issue has NO consistency. I just managed to download THREE straight apps over Wifi, and on the 4th it stopped working again. This is REALLY pissing me off...
