AAAAAAARRRRRGHHHHHHHHH!

Now that I've got your attention:

You should ask where he wants to use them before giving such a recommendation.

Closed cans may be good in loud environments, but the isolation comes at cost of sound-quality.

If he wants to use them at home or in silent environments mainly, half-open or open cans would be better, as isolation isn't that important then.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] dizzydz:
+1

I was thinking the same thing when I saw him post that. Depends where you want to use it. Closed cans will have a smaller sound stage.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] giorgios80:
beats sounds great on sgs2 but i don't think its word the money it's not that good
[Galaxy S II Accessories] scayre32:
Beats are good

but the prices are ridiculous. I'll be purchasing a new pair of headphones soon as I've been using my girlfriend's old iPod ones for far too long. A friend showed off his Sensation XL with Beats and the sound quality was very good, but I wouldn't spend £90 on them.

I think a shiny new pair of sennheiser in-ears are on the cards for me. They don't look as impressive as the beats but that means I'm less likely to get robbed too.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] TheSniperFan:
Depending on what music you listen to, beats are not bad.

However they're horribly overpriced. You can get better ones for the same money our comparable ones for less.

When it comes to quality you can't do much wrong with Sennheiser, AKG, Beyerdynamic or Shure.

Look at the price-tag of a pair of one of these and then look what the others have for the same price.

I only had Sennheiser's and AKG's. The latest two in-ears that I had sounded practically the same but the AKG's have proven to be much more durable (Sennheiser CX300 & AKG K324P).

im wondering if razrs stock rom can be ported to photon...

[HTC Sensation] RohanAJoshi:
Guys, plz tell me that is it worth that i can change my optimus 2x with sensation ?

can u plz tell me whats normal battery life of sensation with or without UC/OV ?

any other issue ?

and death grip ?

also plz give ur voltage table for different frequencies ( max Undervolted)
[HTC Sensation] Fulwood Sedge:
I've just switched from the Optimus 2x and I'm so happy I did now. I was using miui and cm9 at the time but when I switched to stock sense it is so much better!

It's altogether smoother than any rom I'd tried on the 2x.

I can now do so much more in a day on my sensation xe. And still have plenty of battery life left at the end of the day.

Iv not tried any custom ROMs or kernels yet as I'm waiting to see what official ics is going to be like before doing any s-off or root or anything like that.

Everything seems so much more complicated than the 2x if you want to put customer ROMs on HTC than it was with the 2x and there doesn't seem to be a tool which can recover from bricks as well as nvflash and smartflash.

Another plus point is that HTC is actually releasing ics ATM for certain sensations unlike lg who will wait about a year before releasing ics just like they did with gingerbread.

Hope this helps?
[HTC Sensation] leftheodo:
It depends on how much money you have to give! The Sensation is an overall much better device than the 2x ( less issues, better build and software quality, a much much larger development section, ICS(!!!!) etc ). But better phones are coming ( ONE X, ONE S and SGS3 later on ) so i would suggest you wait and see unless you found a great price for the Sensation! I love this phone and it's getting better every day especially since ICS development begun!
[HTC Sensation] 22VIN:
If you want to buy it on a contract than just wait until Samsung unveils the GS3. If you don't want the GS3 take a look at the Nexus or GS2. Sensation is not worth it, HTC are already starting to drop support and it's not as powerful as it's supposed to be. I, for example, will never buy an HTC phone again, I expected more but it's just another glitchy Android phone.
[HTC Sensation] RohanAJoshi:
can u compare the battery life of o2x with sensation ?

i m getting sensation for 24k which is 468 USD, is it worth ?

and why there is so less for cm ROM over o2x got lot support.
[HTC Sensation] runderekrun:
Having owned both:

Battery life is worse on Sensation (still gets through a day).

Speaker is worse on Sensation (kind of fixed through mods).

Wi-Fi Death grip if you hand gets near top of phone.

But saying all that, I am still happy I switched. Rooting your phone can fix battery life and speaker volume and the 4.3 inch screen is nice. The real advantage sensation has over optimus is the development. We have a lot of really good devs working on the sensation. Cyanogen team is having problems getting CM9 on it but they will figure it out by the time CM9 has an official release I bet.
[HTC Sensation] RohanAJoshi:
and what about camera quality over o2x ?

at least same ?

cause o2x camera have good camera.
[HTC Sensation] htc-one:
Sensation or Optimus 2X

I have used both phones. The IPS screen on the O2X is very nice. Lg made the screen for Apple's Iphone. The Tegra 2 chip for the O2X is also really powerful. Since the O2X has lower resolution 480X800, the benchmarks are almost at par with Samsung Galaxy SII. The problems with the phone is lack of development, lack of LG support, and very few extended batteries such as Sensation's 1900mAh battery. I would suggest that you wait for the Galaxy SIII, or HTC One X or the LG optimus 4X.
[HTC Sensation] RohanAJoshi:
plz compare this.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
As said, wait for the One X of Galaxy S III - it's not worth getting the Sensation now
[HTC Sensation] runderekrun:
Honestly there is no comparison. Sensation has a WAY better camera than o2x.
[HTC Sensation] Fulwood Sedge:
Give me until the morning as I will take a couple of samples from both as I still have my o2x in a draw somewhere so you can compare your self.

I'll take some outside, inside with natural light and inside with artificial light.
[HTC Sensation] 22VIN:
I can confirm this, a friend of mine has an O2X and the camera is pretty poor compared to the one on the Sensation. Plus, Sensation camera interface is way better.
[HTC Sensation] RohanAJoshi:
Thanx a lot bro, m waiting..

Today is my decision day..
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Go for the Sensation!!!!!!!!!! If you like to rock :)
[HTC Sensation] Fulwood Sedge:
Right then, Before i start i just want to say I have got a Sensation XE. not sure if thats the phone you are looking at buying but here goes...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FritteFrojt:
After uppdating to ICS my GS2 went bananas..

It showed two batteries, apps froze, it changed background by itself, I couldn't put my GS2 on charge unless it was turned off completely, I couldn't turn on my phone again unless the carger was connected, the battery icon up to the right side of the display was flashing, etc.

I tried later to factory reset the GS2 completely but the problems was still there.

Thank Satan my warranty lasts till May, so I've returned the phone to the store where I bought it. They've had a lot of people coming in after the ICS upgrade who also had problems with it.

Now I have to wait until April 20th, when my GS2 is about to return home to me.

Is there anyone who knows what the Hell is going on??

Is there anybody else who have this kinda problems after the latest upgrade?

This is a list I am going to update as I find various apps. If you know of one I missed let me know :)

These apps are ones that look run and feel like Android 4.0 ICS. By this I mean, its settings menu is the ICS style, or, it utilizes the side-ways-scrolling elements well, or it just takes more advantage on ICS then other apps.

If more apps are like these then our phones would look and feel much better in daily use.

[EVO 4G General] rose2jam:
Hey yall nothing special but I reancently drop my phone 1 too many time and crack the screen. Does anyone happen to know what phone I get as a replacement from assurion. I've heard people geting the EVO 3d. I have the white version of the EVO now and seems so slipery when I pull it out of my pocket. Also anything special I should do I had it, but i already flash it back to stock non rooted.
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
You may get an Evo as a replacement; the 3D if they're out of stock.
[EVO 4G General] BlazinThat:
Evo4g is what you get
[EVO 4G General] Exleh:
If it's slippery, get a case.
[EVO 4G General] VenomousViper:
I would suggest buying an otterbox for your new phone either way. It might be expensive but ive had my evo since release and my brother (ever since I got the case) thought it would be funny to show everyone who saw it and says "look! its indestructable" :\ Ass! You might also find that you can actually salvage it by buying a new lcd screen and digitizer glass for under 70.00 on ebay! just tell your carrier you lost it! you pay the same premium regaurdless if you have insurance! then you can turn it around and sell it as refurbished! Keep in mind some skill and technical knowlege of the EVO might be required along with tools if it is not included!
[EVO 4G General] od3llinc:
What's crazy is, my wife's Evo has had two cracked screens and every time we took them to the Sprint stores, they only charged us 25 dollars for a replacement Evo (Just the body, no battery/case/sd card/accessories). Are they not doing this anymore?
[EVO 4G General] scottspa74:
I've head my screen replaced countless times by sprint (with root) for free.

Edit: not to mention speakers replaced, bezel, camera lenses. All free. Never unrooted my phone, ever. Same root from day after launch.
[EVO 4G General] NxNW:
How many *is* countless?

I'm not trying to be flip, I think it's an important point (only semi-related to the OP, but definitely something that occurred to me lately) : if you're having to replace that many things on your phone, that doesn't reflect well on the build quality of the phone.

My observation, from this and other remarks on XDA, as well as my own experience (below) is that Evo's tend to break a lot. Probably less than other brands, and possibly less than other HTC phones, but probably more than certain other phones also (dare I mention the iPhone or is that just going to get me banned on XDA?)

On my original Evo, which I had less than a year, I had to replace the camera lens cover, the internal ear piece speaker (not the speakerphone speaker) and the digitizer. The last one I took to a Sprint store - 35 bucks was pretty reasonable, but they don't just replace a digitizer, they also swap out a whole assembly from some other returned phone including someone else's glass, LCD, and bezel. The other two jobs I did myself using parts I got on Ebay. I thought I did a good job too until, a few months after I did the speaker, the screen started acting funny and I realized I had screwed it together oh-so-slightly wrong and torqued the motherboard just a little. The problem got progressively worse and I finally had to buy a replacement Evo on Ebay. So much for saving a buck going the DIY route.

And those are just the problems I was able to solve. I also had to live with the famous crack in the bezel near the volume button, various dings in the relatively soft plastic of the bezel, and a down-volume button that just stopped working (too much use in recovery sessions I guess? )

Evo's *feel* pretty solid, and they're definitely not cheap plastic toys, but I don't remember having these problems with the fruit flavored phone I used to have.
[EVO 4G General] rose2jam:
My few is everytime I take it out of my pocket... Oh well geting a purple 3d so can't complain too much besides being purple
[EVO 4G General] VenomousViper:
just remeber guys/gals I did say you would have to have the specifications. tourque specs is a large portion of this BEFORE you finish your work. This is a highly complicated peice of technology and any wrong tweeking might cause you to screw up your phone. I suggest

addiquate research

before you attempt any repairs to your phone :) Also, there have been some instances where the carrier WILL NOT work on your phone if they deam that you have voided the warrenty. I have had this problem before. Again, it is really up to the shop if they want to fix it. Do this at your own risk.
[EVO 4G General] NxNW:
Well, yes, it is a calculated risk. The old rule applies : don't gamble if you can't afford to lose.

To me, it's just a phone, so I gambled (and lost). I survived just fine, but I agree that not everyone would/should make the same choice.
[EVO 4G General] scottspa74:
OK. So it wasn't countless.

But

3 screen (2 my fault and 1 the tech installed wrong - about to go for a 4th screen cuz I recently dropped and cracked it again, but this time it's not shattered)

2 or 3 external speakers

2 cam lens covers

And 1 badly dinged bezel (that I didn't even ask for, they did it while replacing the screen)

Never had to pay a dime.

I think the build quality is great. Maybe they could use a better speaker, but I think I was using a kernel with audio gains when it blew (i.e. my fault).

Busted screens were obviously my fault.

And HTC has GOT to find a way to protect camera lenses better. I had camera scratches on my HTC diamond, too, but all the Evo and newer HTCs have an even less protected lens.

I never unrooted. I usually try to make it look sorta stock, though. But the last time I brought it in with ICS, and even had ROM toolbox right on my homescreen lol

No, HTC bring out too many versions of the same hardware to replicate the enormous time investment people made in the HD2. Nexus looks like the most likely to attract the largest number of developers but I gotta say I'm happy having made the change from HD2 to sensation.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Rom Manager & CWM Recovery are not compatible on SGS2. If you try to use both, you will have problems sooner or later. Rom Manager tends to break recovery (which seems to have happened to you) and/or cause bootloops.

Have/use one or the other on your phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dantounet:
Oh right,

but in the wiki there is an explanation to flash the rom from ROM Manager on cyanogen wiki for Samsung Galaxy S2 (I cannot post the link as I am a newbie) and ROM Manager makes you install the ClockWorkMod recovery.

So I guess I will not use ROM Manager and backup/flash from ClockWorkMod.

Thanks for the info.
