[HTC Sensation] RAWLiNGS007:
The usual cliché (i used to think the same, up until today): I love sense cos its elegant and most complete, but its a reseource hog. I love xxx launcher for being fast, but I miss sense widgets.

I tell you: try Sense 4.1 viper rom (has issues but will be fixed with OTA), you wont regret, its super fast and lag free. Finally :victory:

I've enjoyed Nova Launcher. CM9 comes with Trebuchet... undecided if i'll keep with that for a while or not yet.
[HTC Sensation] satrang:
Sense is much better for me, more battery life

[HTC Sensation] hunt3rz_1:
I much prefer the trebuchet launcher which comes either cm10.still in development, but it's fast, minimalistic, saves battery and is simply easy on the eyes.

Give cm10 kang a shot!
[HTC Sensation] steve austin:
hated sense from the jump because you could not resize widgets. switched to launcher pro. at the time it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. Then I realized that there has not been any development on it since forever and the screen sliding, though fast, began to be jerky and did not play well with desktop visualizer. I switched to Go EX pro. It was faster, snappier and had great animations. However, it burned A LOT of battery. I have switched to Apex. It is not as visually appealing as Go EX, but its battery footprint is much less and it is buttery smooth.
[HTC Sensation] costaxo:
Tried sense for a while but I couldn't live with it, as many stated it's a resource hog and a battery drainer..

I'm on CM9 now PyroMod (blahbl4hblah's rom), tried trebuchet for a while it wasn't bad at all and I could live with it.

But I'm using apex now. It's oretty much basic but it's what i need exactly and it blends with trebuchet fine.
[HTC Sensation] DanteXXL:
The only reason I chose HTC over other phones is Sense UI so... yeah. :laugh:
[HTC Sensation] madebyme:
ADW! :D
[HTC Sensation] h4ck3rc1:
agreed, I bought my sensation because of the solid aluminum cover and great looking phone with good features, I hate sense though so I got root and got rid of stock ROM, put AOKP, and use APEX launcher now - very quick

I always disliked the sense launcher, until I tried Sense 4.0. Really good launcher for a stock rom. If I don't use a stock rom, I love Apex Launcher :)

[HTC Sensation] harsh.deep:
I think Launcher Pro works best for me!! The level of customization is far greaterthan sense!!
[HTC Sensation] mk3y:
switching between sense (3.6) and apex launcher but usually end up with sense again after some time.
[HTC Sensation] Sage:
as much as i love sense its too bloated and slow for my liking. It concerns me that Sense is bigger than the entire Android Operating System.

Apex Launcher + Android Pro Widgets for SMS, Calendar & Contacts + Fancy Widget for Time/Weather widget. All are Sense type Widgets.

Much better.
[HTC Sensation] FatLabour:
I cannot stand Sense launcher. Just because of the looks.
[HTC Sensation] icstrim:
i use 360 Launcher. only thing i dont like at that is clock/wheather widget... rest i love .. very smooth and fast :good:
[HTC Sensation] vernon092487:
Apex and Nova for me. I'm currently using Apex as I can have 10x10 homescreen grid and they provide more updates than Nova..
[HTC Sensation] jamesro1208:
I am currently using apex launcher and love that I can customize so much. Really the best launcher out there!
[HTC Rezound] ncwildcat:
Bootloader aside, is the rezound really a better device?? The razr maxx keeps the thin look with a massive batter. Also interested in signal reception, specifically 4g. I have a thunderbolt now and it drops data on 4g a lot at home. Reconnects after a few seconds usually but this is very annoying and the biggest reason I am upgrading. Also, it looks like the rezound extended battery is like the thunderbolt and turns an already heavy decive into a brick
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
The screen sucks on the RAZR.

I use the Rezound extended battery all the time and barely notice the difference from the stock battery.
[HTC Rezound] brisdaddy1207:
Is this someone trollen in the Rezound forum, Really!!!!!!!!
[HTC Rezound] ncwildcat:
What's with this comment?? I have owned lots of different HTC phones and usually like them, but they have all been crap with reception issues. I am vertigo ready to spend some of my hard earned money and have been reading a lot recently. Funny how I can post this in a razr forum for that perspective and there aren't kids with opinions like this. I ask in different forums to get different perspective opinions. People usually are partial to what they own.
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
The reception is super with the rezound
[HTC Rezound] qudwis:
depends on how good moto blur will become with ics

since unlocking bootloader won't happen soon

meaning custom roms will be hard to do
[HTC Rezound] DbZ Gokuu:
IMHO, the Rezound is the best phone on the market today. It can keep up with the GNex and the RAZR hardware wise. Reception wise, I can't speak for the RAZR or the Nexus but I always have 4g signal where its available. The beats audio is superb. People may complain about battery life but I didn't buy a 4g phone for the battery life. I would definitely recommend this phone to anyone and everyone.
[HTC Rezound] Superguy:
Having owned both the Nexus and Rezound, the reception is significantly better on the Rezound. 4g signal is rock solid and i very rarely drop calls. If 4g is available, you'll have it with the Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] kceb83:
I went through two galaxy nexuses and just switched to the rezound. The signal is significantly better on the rezound. No matter what Rom or radio I flashed with the nexus I couldn't hold a phone call in my house. With the rezound I get a solid 4g signal in my house. There is something serioulsy wrong or weak with the nexus radio.
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
Razr maxx = Motorola's attempt to try to make the Razr a useable phone. I do feel sorry for moto owners their devices get replaced so fast. Everything in the razr maxx and the razr are the same except for the battery.
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
you need to go and hold the razr maxx. the razr was uncomfortable to hold (very wide).
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
the razr maxx is identical to the razr except it has 32gb of internal storage(instead of 16) and a much bigger(mah wise) battery. the cpu/gpu in the rezound is better then the razr maxx & signal wise/transfer speed wise, nothing beats the rezound.

p.s. the screen on the razr really screws with your eyes(fuzz around icons/text). p.o.s.
[HTC Rezound] drynyks:
Which HTC phones were those? I have had 3 and never had reception issues!? Always been solid for me and I am regularly in low reception areas. Do you by chance have a metal plate in your head?
[HTC Rezound] ncwildcat:
This is the second childish response...I have had the Vogue, touch diamond, touch pro, Eris, Inc, and now thunderbolt. Of all those the Eris had the best reception...the thunderbolt constantly drops 4g but it does recover quickly. I have always enjoyed the flexability offered with HTC devices and dev support, but I really need something that is reliable in the reception department
[HTC Rezound] drynyks:
I think the Razr will be better for you for sure.
[HTC Rezound] DbZ Gokuu:
I also had a Dinc and I never ever had reception issues. But the first time my Rezound dropped from LTE to 3g and the icon disappeared for a second I flipped out cuz I had never experienced that before lol
[HTC Rezound] Skizzy034:
Where can I get the extended battery that everyone is talking about? Is there more than one or different kinds?
[HTC Rezound] killsforpie:
The Rezound's camera is really nice too. It looked better than the Razr's from what I could see in the store.
[HTC Rezound] fbm111:
Wife has razr. I have rezound. I constantly have better reception than she does. 4g 3g hand off is better. Going from wifi to 3g 4g much faster as well. Rezound much better screen.

Gnex I took back after I could not get any reception at all.
[HTC Rezound] Sleek69:
If you don't mind the bootloader and awful screen (compared to the rezound) the razr maxx is the way to go.
[HTC Rezound] Izeltokatl:
The 4g, is going to be a regional thing. But in SoCal I get sold coverage. Can't go wrong. it is a great device.

Sent from my rezound.
[HTC Rezound] PaulQ602:
I too never had a problem with reception on my DInc.

I think both phones are good enough to leave it to which one feels right, both physically and in terms of interface. They are very different in those areas. If you like both equally, which would surprise me because they are so different, I would be concerned about the sealed battery and memory in the Razr. When it comes down to the three big guys on the market right now, which one feels right is the question. It's a very personal choice.

Obviously, I would choose the Rezound. I did and I am very satisfied.

[HTC Rezound] PokerMunkee:
I work in IT and thus support our mobile phones. I have never seen so many stock Motorola phones crapping out and being replaced under warranty. I will never own a Motorola phone.

Wasn't the GNex's battery issue a software glitch, reporting low bars when it was really better?
[HTC Rezound] soutwater:
IMO, Rezound is great. Good build, looks great and with CleanRom 2.1, has ICS Sense already. Planning on trying scrosler's Senseless soon for more vanilla feel. Recommend getting it to everyone.

4g drop outs were a problem with all the 1st gen lte phones. Bugs are still being worked out by verizon

verizon was running a sale on the htc extended battery (2750) with cover for 20 bucks. Not sure if the sale is still on. It was "unadvertised", the sales people didn't even know it, but it rung up for 20.

Verizon says its the way that the nexus reports the signal, but there are plenty of reports of users that were dropping 4g on the nexus while other devices next to it held a signal.
[HTC Rezound] H3Dude:
The Nexus bars are reporting LTE signal, the rezound reports CDMA. that is the difference.
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
it was more then just a mere glitch. i've had both the rezound and the nexus. on the rezound i was able to download 1gb in roughly 5 minutes... on the nexus it took 15+ minutes.

i use skype for calls and on the rezound calls were always fine & clear. on the nexus they'd regularly cut in & out and voices often sounded robotic/glitchy.
[HTC Rezound] Skizzy034:
Thanks. How long ago was this sale? And can I get the battery at like best buy, radio shack or other places? And also is this the extended battery everyone is talking about and buying on this forum? Are there more than one? Sorry for all the questions. Just wanna make sure.
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
the sale is no longer advertised but if you go in to a verizon store and ask them to check the price it should still come up on sale. i believe the actual verizon stores are the only ones carrying the extended(at least that's how it is around here).

also, the official htc/verizon extended is the only one so far. still waiting on mugen and/or seidio to release something beefy.
[HTC Rezound] JohnShaft69:
+1

I second that!
[HTC Rezound] jordant2:
I am pleased to see so many people admit that the galaxy nexus has terrible reception. I switched to the rezound and the signal is rock solid. At work the galaxy nexus would lose signal and could not hold on to 4g. I thought there just wasn't good verizon service in that area. The rezound usually has 2 bars and never loses 4g, at worst it will drop to 1 bar. I really like the phone so far. The latest sense runs smoothly and I really like all the options.

Also ICS seems sluggish on the galaxy nexus. On a side note I have a galaxy tab 8.9 and honeycomb is sluggish as well. Gingerbread just feels snappier and more refined. Definitely get the rezound!
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
"I'd buy that for a dollar!" :)
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
Either the verizon store or htcpedia.com have the official htc extended battery. Its the only one I've seen. It works well. I bought mine the end of december and since they didn't know about the price, they couldn't tell me how long it would go on.
[HTC Rezound] jordant2:
LOL! 10char
[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
The sealed battery in the razrs put them out of contention. Throw in the terrible screen and feeling like crap in the hand and they are in a lower class of device. If you hold a Nexus, a Rezound, and a Razr in the exact same location and look at the db of the signal, the bars are meaningless, the Rezound gets the best, followed by the Razr and the Nexus brings up the rear.....the far rear.
[HTC Rezound] ajftl:
And the maxx comes with qhd display suck ass
[HTC Rezound] Gene_Bailey:
Its funny though because not even 4 months ago qHD was a great thing. In fact qHD is not a bad resolution.. its not as good 720p, no one will say that. But my girlfriends mother loves her RAZR. And I must admit the screen on it is quite nice. I've had dozens of android devices over the last few years and I've seen all sorts of screens, Super LCD panels and AMOLEDS of all sorts and the RAZR isn't bad at all.

My personal preference is the Galaxy Nexus (love the screen, I'm a purist when it comes to Android, and I haven't ever had reception issues after 4.0.3) but, my man, what it boils down to is your preference.

I am sorely tempted by the RAZR Maxx. The gigantic battery is an incredibly nice feature especially because it maintains a slim profile. Also I love the materials used to make it. Not a fan of Blur though..

The Rezound has a lot of features that I like, and Beats Audio is quite nice. I LOVE the red accents. Striking. But! Its just too thick for my taste. Also the battery is sub par to me. Sure, extended batteries exist, but again they increase thickness.. and on HTC devices they become ungainly. The screen on the Rezound is top notch. Its pixel density is really something. But I only notice it when the screen is really bright as opposed to the Nexus where its apparent you're looking at hi res all the time. The camera here is the best out of the three. That's definitely worth noting.

The Galaxy Nexus really is a great phone. Its like Google's iPhone. They designed Android 4.0 for this device kind of like Ape designs iOS for their iPhone. It works really nice. Sure the Rezound will have it, and the Razr will have it too, but stock ICS is just.. such a joy to use. I don't want it buried beneath any skins! If I want to change it, I'll run MIUI. The camera on the Nexus is quite nice all things considered, Mega pixels don't equal awesome. BUT the sensor on this devices could be better. Much better. One of things this device has that none of the others has is NFC. This may not mean much to many of you, but the devices to accept payment from it are actually quickly spreading where I live and NFC has a huge future. The Galaxy Nexus is the most future proofed device on Verizon at the moment.

But, ultimately my friend its your choice. I would rather go with the Rezound than the Razr.. but I love the Galaxy Nexus. Its all about preference! With Android comes choices!

So, whatever you get, love it!
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
I would probably have gotten the GNexus if it was down to $199.
[HTC Rezound] Gene_Bailey:
It is lol Amazon.com has it for that price for new and add a lines
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Not for a upgrade though.
[HTC Rezound] Bluesnake01:
HW wise, the Rezound takes the spot. The RAZR and Nexus have a better CPU but its clocked lower than the Rezound which puts them both real close, also, you can OC the Rezound higher. The Rez GPU is also ahead of both the RAZR and Nexus, memory however is slower but these are things that you won't really see any difference (unless you are a bench-a-holic). Camera, the Rez easily takes the spot.

Screen wise, it'll be preference, the Razr has less ppi and isn't as clear BUT the Amoled Vibrant colors look amazing! Even at qHD, it's stil better than most screens out there, an Amoled QHD makes it very satisfying for most.

The Razr is very rock solid proof compared to the Rez, feels cheap but trust me, its a better built phone. However, like I stated, the Razr feels cheap, too wide, some think its too thin and the battery is internal (which most, especially me, hate). The Rez also comes with the overpriced earphones BUT they are EASILY the best earphones you can get with a phone (and they sound GREAT!). You can also upgrade to a 64 GB SD Card on the Rez.

I love Sense but the new one seems to be very laggy compared to my older Dinc, its not as smooth. However it has very nice extra options and beautifully done animations. A different home launcher will get rid off most of the lag and keep most of the great sense options. I disliked Motoblur from the beginning, its faster and smoother than Sense but it feels very out of place IMO.

Signal wise, people have said the Razr has slightly better signal while others have said the Rez holds it better. In the end, they are both VERY great for holding signal, the best really for an LTE phone (Thunderbolt sucked a**, I hated mine). If signal is a concern, both phones will satisfy you. HTC has an unlocked bootloader which you are able to load lots of different roms (able to get a Clone ICS AOSP with a better HW phone IMO).

All those things said and done, IMO the Rez is the better phone.

[Milestone 2 General] jsschmid:
Yeah well... don't read on. Actually the native SIP calling *IS* enabled in the ROM mentioned above... never mind...

Is there a possibility to get native VoIP support for the "[Port&MOD][CM7][GB kernel][20-Dec-2011] cm72-111215.1631-NIGHTLY-v1.3" ROM??? I was using the "[ROM][22-01-2012] CyanogenMod 7 for Motorola Milestone 2 (Android 2.3.7)" ROM before and was very satisfied with the native support of VoIP, so if it's possible I'd rather avoid installing additional app's like CSIPsimple.

Just to clarify : I'm talking about the "Internet call settings" of Android which can be seen here: http://www.voipvoip.com/android/sip.html and usually can be accessed - if availiable - by going into settings -> call settings, then scrolling to the lower end.

Thank you for any good advice!

[HD2 General] AthenaLod:
why don't you buy a "new" hd2 from ebay or craigslist? it will be most likely cheaper than the price of the new glass, shipping to and from and paying the one who fixes the phone.
[HD2 General] Mister B:
I can do it, I am in Thailand so shipping may not be the best for you.

What is the fault? actual crack digitizer or loss of touch or LCD cracked !?

What sceen assembly you got ? go to bootloaded & look at codes below:

MicroP(Touch) 0x30 = you have inside the crappy 60H00295 Soldering Version

MicroP(Touch) 0x40 + 0x50 = you have inside the 60H00300 Click On Version

A complete 60H00300 assembly can be used to replace soldered versions if you so wish.

[TouchPad Development] GavChap:
Built a version of Superuser.apk from the github source to make preferences work. All I've done is remove the code that checks for a new version. It works perfectly now.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19946299/Superuser.apk

Directions:

1. Uninstall your current version of Superuser with:

adb remount /system

adb shell rm -f /system/app/Superuser.apk

2. Install new one using adb

adb install Superuser.apk

Or

adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk

Alternatively you can remove your current Superuser.apk with a root system file manager and install the new one the same way.

I've also put in the issue with ChainsDD on his issues list and where I found it, seems to be to do with the waiting thread when it requests the current su binary version.
[TouchPad Development] TMan459:
Thanks for the post. I'm wondering, and yes I've searched plenty on XDA and RootzWiki, will this fix su issues all around? For example, using TB 4.0.2 sends my CM9 TP into a reboot. I've read this may be an issue with Busybox.

Any insight anyone?
[TouchPad Development] GavChap:
I don't think it's busybox and the exact point that Superusers waits for the su binary to return the version number. The actual command works 100% OK, you can do the exact same commands in shell and it's fine. It seems to be something to do with the actual java exec thread. TB has the same issue, where as other backup apps (ultimate backup) do not, and they still call su binary. I'm still trying to figure it out.
[TouchPad Development] nomadman:
change to:

adb shell rm -f /system[COLOR="Red"]/app[/COLOR]/Superuser.apk

thanks

edit: and i had to push the su app instead of install
