[HTC Sensation] infazz:
Hi All,

Please help me with one question only :)

I'm sure we have some people here who changed classic htc desire to sensation / sensation xe.

And the question is about speaker of sensation. is it really that bad? How you can compare it with desire?

I have desire right now and its speaker quality is quite OK for me to hear and answer the call :)

Really appreciate You'r answer! thanks !
[HTC Sensation] ste1164:
About the same if I'm honest. Sensation slightly better.
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
Im going to upgrade my senny to senny xe today!! Got a good offer from a friend in his shop!! Really happy lol!! ^^
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
edit:im getting confused with the lesser XL
[HTC Sensation] claud_face:
Wrong, that is the XL. :)
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
Just add another few $$ and im off with XE version. So i said to my self, why not? Im kinda like the red accent on sensation ;D. Regards to all the defect sensation have, i hope they fix it in this new version. Through my reading, most of xe version only some get the problem :)
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
Wohooo!!!! Xe rock!! Just got this babe few hours ago..it does have that feel & that shop smell ;D
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
One more reason im buying this is due to the beat headphone which cost high here in malaysia..nearly $500..buy just add the same price, i can also get brand new xe phone..lol
[HTC Sensation] arzbhatia:
Maybe I'm late but i recommend you NOT to buy the Sensation XE. It's not the Sense I don't like (You can change the ROM anyway doesn't matter), it's everything, from the screen to the back cover and also the service. In some places, the service is good but mostly pathetic.

You'd get the best Dev Support and updates if you get the Galaxy Nexus, I highly recommend it.

Get the Galaxy Nexus or the Droid RAZR.
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
Im not a fan of motorola, not even touch wiz of sammy :b im better with htc sense :)
[HTC Sensation] arzbhatia:
Galaxy Nexus doesn't have touchwiz mate. Its the best phone out in the market. It has pure Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.1 - the latest version.

Go to www.google.com/nexus to have a look.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Trouble is, with HTC you have an option of aosp, cm, sense , de-sense. With non HTC phone you cannot have sense aš an option. I really rely on Sense now, so it'd be difficult to switch.
[HTC Sensation] fandroid93:
Thats true. That is one reason why I really like HTC phones, my other reason is because HTC is the best :D
[HTC Sensation] halleycool:
Bro just get any blutooth headset...I'm myself using jabra street2 on my sensation...terbaek bro ;)
[HTC Sensation] arzbhatia:
Meh, I vote for Galaxy Nexus.
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
http://www.jabra.com/sites/mobile/au-en/products/pages/jabrastreet2.aspx

This jabra is really good as compare to dr beat?? :)
[HTC Sensation] halleycool:
So far I'm ok lar...but the sounds kinda laggy....using rom ARHD 3.6.7 XE...
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
Is it really just a gimmick?

(^^)
[HTC Sensation] Bl@ck$oLiD:
Hello my friends,

i have the normal Sensation and my girlfriend have the XE and i see both phones have nearly the same featers, performens and speakers.

I have root my normal and install the XE Rom and i buy the same backcover like the XE and now I have two identical phones.

I think you can save the money for the XE if one haven´t much money.

Yours sincerely

BS

PS: Sorry for my bad english :D
[HTC Sensation] dublinz:
PS : your English is way better than my German :
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
Like i say, i buy it because of the head set dr beat. Here is quite expensive. The price is nearly the same if i upgrade to xe. That why i think im better get the xe as well. That way, im not just getting the head set dr beat, but i get both with the new phone xe :D

Edit: after using xe for few days, i do notice, the speaker is much better than the original (no noise background etc) and the vibration when you press keypad also is much more smooth and feel good. The touch screen also much responsive, even when im typing very fast, it can catch every letter i type :D

Or is it just me??
[HTC Sensation] Bl@ck$oLiD:
@dublinz:

thanks i doing my best. The main thing is your understand me. :D

@naimmkassim

you are right if somebody would ike to have the Dr. Dre earphones. But if somebody owns good earphones yet and needs no other, i think you can save the money.

And you are right the loudspeaker and the touch is a little bit worse with the original Rom but with a new rom its a way better than the XE.

i had say a original Sensation with the XE Rom, a bigger battery and a new Cover it give no differents about the two Phones.

Yours sincerely

BS
[HTC Sensation] flunk86:
Totally agree
[Xperia Play General] SondreVAIO:
Hi. If you read some reviews or Specs about our Play and Nexus S. There isnt much difference. You can see that Xperia PLAY is better than Nexus S. So Hardware is Supported for ICS :D

Dont compare the Play with Nexus One. Compare it with Nexus S xD
[Xperia Play General] TheCraig:
Very Similiar hardware.
[Xperia Play General] dannejanne:
Even a lot of much older phones will be able to run ICS. As long as the phone has a GPU, which most of them have.
[Xperia Play General] antispiral:
mmmm...what? just because it has hardware acceleration doesn't mean all phones with gpu can run it.
[Xperia Play General] AndroHero:
It pretty much does, just like apple, google will wan't as many devices as possible on there latest OS. Anyway the ICS SDK emu has already been ported to some very low end devices like the samsung galaxy 5 that only has a 500mhz cpu.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hottabich:
Good day!

I have a problem. Some time ago I've crashed my Desire touochscreen.

So I've bought a new touch screen. Glued it in via Super Glue.

Worked fine for some time. But then it doesn't respond to my touches. So it works works, then, BAM, stops working.

If i start charging my Desire - also stops working.

Any advice or help?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hottabich:
Com' on :-) No clues at all? :-(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManoMachine:
looks like touchscreen is not the only thing that you crashed.

are you sure that the phone isn't freezing?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hottabich:
That's the problem, that touchscreen is the only thing i crashed. Because when the touchscreen was crashed, it still worked good.

The phone isn't freezing if you mean low temperature by that.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Send it back to HTC and let them repair it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
I'm 99.9% sure he killed his warranty as soon as he did the touchscreen himself...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hottabich:
It's off warranty for lik 1 year
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imsohawker:
What's with the no help with my problem? I'm a smart man, and I rarely seek others for help because I feel I'm more capable then the rest. But when I hit a wall and I can't find my way to the other side I seek for the answers, and what a waste I should have known that to be. This big and wonderful community of very smart and talented individuals is a let down. I'm not trying to insult any one. I'm just making it known that there are people who truly seek help, and I know the answers are here, now it's a disgrace to see someone very patiently and generously seeking help only to be practically ignored till the thread slips down deeper into the forums to be lost and forgotten FOR GOOD. Here's my real question, what does it take to get answers? I'll be searching else where and on my own to figure it out by myself, then I'm going to do the opposite of you all, and I'm going to share my knowledge with someone who needs it just as bad as me. Because I am grateful, that is all.

Ya'll can say what you will, I may see it but I wont be reading it.

Good day!

I learned a long time ago to never be disappointed means to never expect anything, from anyone. Well it's a different case when there's a forum dedicated to QUESTIONS, and ANSWERS. I expect the knowledgeable ones who can help TO help.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
@imsohawker: You need to be aware that there are over 4,000,000 members on this site. Of them, the Streak community is a tiny one, which is why it's located in the Low Activity and Legacy section of the site. Most Streak owners do not have AT&T, being in Europe and Asia. Of the ones that do have AT&T, you are the first I've seen that has a "pay as you go" plan. So if you aren't getting answers to your questions it's likely because your situation is so uncommon that no one here has any practical experience that can allow them to answer it.

I did in fact attempt to help you out, but there is only so much I can do, simply because I am not on a "pay as you go" plan through AT&T. I'm sorry. I wish I could be more helpful.

@markdexter: Be aware that when you created a username on XDA Developers you agreed to abide by the site's rules. The number one rule on the site is search before you post. If it's abundantly clear that the poster did not search before posting, e.g. asking how to root the Streak, you will get told to use the search engine. Usually I am nice enough to provide a link and mention using the search engine the next time, but for repeat offenders, I report their posts for violations of rule number 1.

While XDA members are rather knowledgeable people, at least for myself it's more gratifying to find out the answer yourself than it is to have it spoonfed to you.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imsohawker:
Very well said. I know the statistics, and how low on them I am. I was hoping I could of at least had someone with the general know-how guide me, but as you said I'm the first you've seen with a "pay as you go" AT&T plan. Sorry for the outbursts! I was in the wrong to assume with such large numbers of knowledgeable folk that I'd get lucky enough to have someone fall in my lap with the answer I was looking for. Again thanks for the attempted help, which is better than none. Much appreciated!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdexter:
I would get a new sim card to start, I also think it has something to do with pay as you go.

also have you tried changing the network type? On your dial pad, type *#*#4636#*#* then press phone information, then at the bottom, theres options try wcdma only, or gsm only Just go through them, worth a shot

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imsohawker:
I think it may have something to do with my pay as you go too, the first android phone I had bought unlocked (LG GW620) I had problems with my phone telling me my SIM wasn't inserted, I believe I resolved the problem but I forgot how, that was 2 phones ago but I know it would still occasionally tell me to insert my SIM, and my previous phone (unlocked sidekick lx) I had problems with losing service a lot, though sometimes it still showed I had service (bars) but I couldn't send messages or anything. So I'm almost concluding it's my SIM being a pay as you go SIM and it has restrictions maybe? I did however call AT&T's support and they have changed the IEMI of my sim to match my dell so I was hoping that would fix my issue but it hasn't, also I just tried the WCDMA only and that didn't work, and I think I already played with these settings but not through the dialer code. I'll try the other but I'm doubting it, but everything's worth a shot. Thanks
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scruffdog1978:
All I did was buy a cheap 10 gophone and used the sim outta that and activated it online...did the same for t-mobile....i was switching between the two cards to see which service I liked better..maybe try that....i had no issues what so ever. Btw my phone was orignally att locked which I got unlocked.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaydog:
I read your original post as soon as you wrote it, as well as your others and found it interesting, but not having a clue as to what the problem was I did not chime in.

You may try a more general forum on XDA, as this is probably not a streak specific issue. Also, I have found the forums on At&t wireless's website to be surprisingly helpful.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ericalanMICHAEL:
I'm running CM7 and would like to try out the MIUI rom. Do I need to wipe data/factory reset in recovery before flashing the new rom? Also, is there anything I should do outside of a nandroid backup before flashing a new rom? This is my first time flashing a different rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jamadio:
In your case, yes.

Developers and their ROMs vary in the changes they make, and while some might need no wiping, many do.

As a result, as a general safe consensus, the following is usually recommended to avoid all possible repercussions.

1. factory reset

2. format/cache

3. format/system

4. wipe dalvik cache

Again, this isn't always necessary, but when moving from one ROM to another, this is a good idea.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ericalanMICHAEL:
Cool, man. Thanks for the quick reply! Was hoping I could avoid a data loss. Flashing now. :cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Beekersguy:
I've used Titanium Backup whenever I've switched roms, and it's been super handy.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
You can usually safely just wipe the cache, format the system and wipe the Dalvik Cache and leave the data partition alone (as long as the rom is using the same file system type). Then on the first boot all your previously installed user apps will magically reappear, but your first boot will take much longer.

[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
Hi, a new version by update for the Market.apk 3.3.11 (not ICS).

It appears an update to the Android Market is now being pushed out to handsets, and you can download it here. You cannot find it in the market at the moment.

Warning: this updated Market doesn't seem to work very well on Honeycomb tablets, there appears to be a number of glitches.

Edit : I've tried on my TF101 rooted (ARHD 2.1.0) and it's work ;)

What's changed? So far, you've found:

- New settings:

=> Update over Wi-Fi only,

=> Auto-add shortcuts (automatically adds homescreen shortcuts for new apps, ala Honeycomb)

and the others changes:

- Smaller font,

- New app drawer icon,

- Microphone (voice command) button in search menu,

- Star rating chart on app pages,

- Minor UI tweaks.

How do I install it?

This is an update, so you download it, and you install it normally as an update.

Download here:

Market-3.3.11.apk
[HTC Desire S] swordlink:
Nice one ;) thx
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 4123551:
Great work! Ill include this in my New roms till there is a New update.
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Way too slow! Slower than older versions. Even with set dns images take a millennium to load
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
No slower. Have you tried before ?

I've tried on my DS (BinDroid 2.3.5) and on my DZ (2.3.3).

And it's not slower than the older versions.
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
turns out my internet was just slow at the time. tried it again and it is pretty quick! Although still not instant.
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Unfortunately it is still having the "bug" with non-standard screen density setups.

If one will change default screen density (240 for HDPI devices) to something else (200 for ex), many applications in the market cannot be installed. Try for ex. Skype, it will say "This application is incompatible with your device" and won't let you install it (not event download it).

There are 2 ways to bypass this:

1. Change temporary to the default HDPI density (or the default density for your device), then accesss market and download application of your choice

2. Revert to an older market that doesn't have this bug (Market prior to 3.x.x). Also do not forget to delete/uninstall/freeze MarketUpdater.apk or else it'll auto-update and get a 3.x version again.

If someone will ever find a way to use latest 3.x Market without the need to switch back and forth through density settings, I'll gladly update. Till then...old market is better for me
[HTC Desire S] lynxnoon:
not bad

i think better than the previous one ....well, for now:)

i was wonderning if xbox 360 pad can be used with our sensation for gaming.

i'm saying this because ps3 pad can be used for gaming and all it takes a driver which enables it.

i'm not a dev but i would love it if someting like this can be done.

please dev can you give some insight about this thread.
[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
What way does the 360 controller connect to the Xbox wirelessly? If it's Bluetooth, there *MIGHT* be a slight chance. But if it's not Bluetooth, no way to get it working.
[HTC Sensation] Shery4life:
it only says its use wireless at 1.4 ghz protocol to connect

othere than that i could not find anything
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Ok this is what I do know about your question. I do think the X-Box 360 does use Bluetooth for the wireless controllers, but do not hold me to it as I have not researched it in depth. If it is Bluetooth then you should be able to connect it via Bluetooth if your device supports the service the controller uses to communicate. But this is where the problem lies at, I do not think the services or supported in Gingerbread. Now if the Sensation suppers USB host functionality then you probably can use a USB hub to connect your Sensation and the X-Box 360 controller to and use it that way.

Now in ICS I do know that game pads are supported. You can read the article on Engadget to read more about that.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Unfortunately for you the 360 wireless controller works via radio rather than bluetooth (unlike the PS3 and the Wii)

:)
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
one of many reasons why I can not wait for ICS!!! :D

p.s. I do not believe Xbox controllers run on Blutooth... PS3 controller yes.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Thanks for correcting me, as I said I had not ever really looked into it. I knew the PS3 controller worked via Bluetooth, so it was a incorrect assumtion on my part.

Also thanks to someone I consider a friend malybru.
[HTC Sensation] Ndokami:
Even so if you dont have a stock build of android like CM7, or MIUI, Bluetooth wont work with the ps3 or wii controllers... HTC needs to fix that in their next update. i love sense and i love gaming it sucks i cant have both :(
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
360 = rf

ps3 = bt
[HTC Sensation] airzone:
Yeah, you will never get a 360 controller working without a hardware mod of some sort.

Wii is BT as well.
[HTC Sensation] Shery4life:
i just want to know how does cm7 or miui allow the users to connect to ps3 pad

if they use different bluetooth app or driver files than i think it will be good for us to just move them in our phone and we are good to go.

if any 1 can tell me the reason these two rom can connect to ps3 pad. and what is it that allows them
[HTC Sensation] akbisw:
U need a radio reciever in your phone at 2.4ghz to use xbox controller. Our phones dont. So no go. End of story
[HTC Sensation] kevinliu2336:
I know there are usb adapters for the xbox 360 controller , would it be possible to use a usb to micro usb cable and use USB OTG to get it to communicate, then creat some sort of driver to get it to work? Sorry if its impossible, just throwing science at the wall here to see what sticks. ;)
[HTC Sensation] akbisw:
LOL we work around science.

Hey guys,

I was just thinking about a recovery menu, to install roms, update.zip etc.

But now i noticed there are no physical buttons to select something.

We can go only up and down with the volume buttons, but we cannot select anything?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ghost010:
on the nexus S we only use volume keys and the power button in CWM....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kzoodroid:
Your post makes absolutely no sense. Could be a couple possibilites here. Are you talking about holding the power button and volume buttons down to get into recovery? Are you asking if ROM Manager and Quickboot can get you into recovery? I have no clue to what you are asking or trying to say. If your talking about how to get into recovery that wasn't what the OP wanted to know. He wanted to know how to make a selection once you are in recovery.

To the OP CWM Recovery's code can be written to use whatever buttons are available. Once the phone drops a custom recovery will be written for it in a matter of minutes if it hasn't been done already. Same with superuser.
