Just like the title says, should I trade R for sensation?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] anonymous_1997:
I would say yes as the sensation is a 1.2 GHz dual-core processer whereas I believe the r only has a 1ghz dual-core (correct me.if I'm wrong) and I also personally believe that HTC is much more dev friendly and there phones.are of a much higher build quality

Sent from my Sensation XL with Beats Audio
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] vrajan:
How long you have been using SGR? One always be better than others. Personally I would stick to SGR and use it for a long run. I don't have any single issue with the phone since i bought in December and I could do everything I wanted to do in this phone. I am using the phone extensively for business and personal purposes.

---------- Post added at 01:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 PM ----------

Just wondering what advantage 1.2ghz DC has over 1ghz DC and how that affects us on the day to day usage. Just curious to know the difference. I don't have any issue with the audio quality with poweramp :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
Sensation have many plus points.

More powerfull processor 1 ghz vs 1.2 ghz.

Lil large screen 4.19 vs 4.3.

Better camera 5mp vs 8mp.

Better resolution.

official ics and expanded dev support.

I would suggest u to trade ur r for sensation but check sensation properly for wear and/or any faults.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] sirholm:
Samsung is often alot easier to root/flash, since there is no s-on/off.

I would compare this way:

I9103:

+ light weight.

+ amoled screen

- only 5mpixel

- difficult to renew cassing.

- not that much dev, because of s2

Sensation:

+ camera

+ alot of dev, oc, etc

+ complete cassing can be changed in seconds.

- heavy and too thick in my opinion

- runs horrible on stock sw

- display has way too much brightness compared to amoled/LCD2.

and take a look in the development sections and take a look at what roms that might suite you.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
Sgr and sentation both uses same display technology. Both have s-lcd.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] allinkiran:
The reasons that I am thinking about trading away my R are majorly three.

First the screen is bigger and of higher resolution on sensation.

Second, the camera is better(though not much of a requirement, I'm pretty satisfied with 5mp/720p at the time being :D), also the resale value of HTC IMHO is higher in India as compared to samsung(and I like to change my phones quite often)

Last but not the least is the support for the device. The support for sensation from the dev community is off the charts.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
u should look at these scores :eek: i wasnt knowing that our SGR have more potential than sensation.

SGR

quadrant (higher is better) - 3072

benchmark pi (lover is better) - 509

linpack (higher is better) - 57.1

nenamark2 (higher is better) - 31

sunspider (lover is better) - 4359

browsermark (higher is better) - 51367

sensation

quadrant (higher is better) - 2357

benchmark pi (lover is better) - 621

linpack (higher is better) - 46.6

nenamark2 (higher is better) - N.A. (its about 22 fps approx)

sunspider (lover is better) - 6428

browsermark (higher is better) - 39673

after seeing this scores i would say our SGR is much better than sensation :D

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
You are totally right. Although people in Sweden experienced some issues during phone calls - random disconnections, pretty annoying. Screen (despite higher resolution) was also considered as not as good as the one from HTC incredible s (which is really worse than ours).
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] allinkiran:
I knew that :D....had already been doing my research about this for nearly a week now. I tried searching for user opinions on the web too. Didn't find any satisfactory answers so decided to post here. I love my R but am still tore down the middle on whether to keep it or send it packing. :(
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
but don't forget that...benchmarks depend on rom as well. Sense Roms have always got the worst scores (well they're the most glamorous) while samsung's ugly roms reached the best.

I don't know if tegra2 is really much better than qualcom snapdragon, but the thing is....none cares about our chipset and our device right now, including samsung. Look at android development section of any htc phone, (not to mention sgs2) and compare to ours. You're gonna cry my friends.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
:( u r right we r far behind in dev support.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] GeorgePB:
I wish I could sell off my R and get a SII, but I don't know how much I'd get for the R.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
probably not even a half you paid :(
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] vipul12389mehta:
Ok.....when i was to purchase sgr...i was in a dilema wether to go for sensation or not....

So i wld suggest u to jst perform google search with keyword..HTC sensation problems. Out if the 10 searchs 8 wld say that htc is having touch screen issues...n dats a manufacturing prob

However sgr does hav issues bt nt any global issue...

So i wld say b4 tradin perform google search for known problems with sensation series....
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] allinkiran:
Mine's going for 17k....got it in December though :p
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
I bought in feb :( but not getting more than 16~17, i m not interested in selling my sgr but really resell price is less than expected.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] allinkiran:
Resale value is very poor for Samsung :( HTC fares very well in that dept.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
You wanna know something funny? Last year I announced my HTC Legend - (CPU 0,6 ghz) for 1700 sek - and within 3 days I got at least 15 answers.

For mine SGR I got just one for 1800 sek (ca 255$), well much less than I expected ;) To compare...I paid for it in October - ca 4300 sek (around 611 $) ;) Bit depressing, isn't it :)?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
Same here :mad: if u buy sammy than dnt think to sell it :D u will only end up in loss.

supricingly s ii resale price is not fair, here 4~6 months old s ii available for only 16~20 k inr (300~380 usd)

U bought sgr very expensive :eek: its about 33.5k inr, in october s ii was priced around 29~30k inr.
[HTC One X] cyben76:
So i just received my Spigen SGP Anti-fingerprint ultra fine screen protector and Skinomi DryTech HTC One X Skin protector today.

For those thinking of getting both or either one of these, here are my first impression...

I'm returning the Skinomi DryTech, doesn't fit right. The cutout for the rear 5-pin and speaker holes doesn't fit properly. It covers one of the gold pins and part of the speaker holes. The camera cutout a bit too big. Maybe i'm just too fussy, but i'm so used to BestSkinsEver type of fit, very minimal gaps and very close precise fit. Guess i'll have to wait for BSE to come out with HOX skins. I've given up on Invisibleshield ever since they added Zagg to their name, quality just wasn't the same.

Next, Spigen SGP Anti-Fingerprint Ultra fine Screen Protector Steinheil enhanced optical hard coated film. It doesn't cover the whole screen just the middle flat part. Although i'm not really happy with the fit, i'm keeping them until i find a better alternative.

I'll try post some pics, but the only camera i have now is the HOX camera..

update (12th May 2012):

Received the replacement full body skin from Skinomi, fits better but still not aligned 100% so they sending me another replacement.

Decide to try the Skinomi's DryTech Screen protector that came with the full body kit.. it fits to the edges of the curved surface, slightly rubbery feel, but not as bad as other skins i've tried. few micro bubbles right after installation, seems like the bubbles slowly disappearing. Will try it out a few weeks and update my views.
[HTC One X] digitalallstar:
I don't think we'll ever find a traditional type of screen protector to cover the screen 100% because of the curvature of the edges. Best coverage would be from a flexible wet application screen protector ala BSE or IS. Downside would be the sticky orange peel texture.
[HTC One X] :
I also received my SGP Ultra Fine Screen Protector today. I'm not opening it or keeping it. It has a matte appearance which isn't for me. I'll have to sell it on eBay or something. How much should I ask for?
[HTC One X] cyben76:
I think u can return them for a full refund if u haven't opened it.
[HTC One X] cyben76:
I'm thinking of getting Seidio Ultimate Screen Guard - Fingerprint Reducing and HD.

http://www.seidioonline.com/htc-one-x-fingerprint-reducing-and-hd-screen-guard-p/spm3htnxl-2.htm

According to the product description:

- Covers the front face of your device, including the screen and the proximity sensor with cut-outs for the home button, speaker and camera
[HTC One X] :
I've listed it on eBay here
[HTC One X] feygor:
I think Skinomi has acknowleged that some of their screen protectors don't fit the back see here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25267093&postcount=97

Apparantly after emailing them, Azzatar has been sent a replacement that should fit better. I'd try that.
[HTC One X] mrvirginia:
^^this

only a wet applicating one is gonna cover close to 100% of the screen
[HTC One X] cyben76:
Just to add the SGP doesn't even cover 100% of the flat part. Top to bottom acceptable, though there is a slight gap of about 1mm. Side coverage it only covers the part of the screen where the LCD is, with about 8mm gap, 4mm on each side before the glass starts to curve.

Hard to prove my point when i can't take a pic...
[HTC One X] rasterX:
I think it's less noticeable if the protector dimensions are perfectly aligned with the LCD, the edge disappears when the phone is on, but very obvious when the phone is off. My wife has a Optimus 2X, which has a even wider curved bezel, and the screen protector is sized exactly to the display also.

I agree with the others that hard screen protectors won't fit to the edge of glass, unless they come pre-molded to the screen curvature, and this might not be possible with this type of material.

Apparently same prob with Zagg InvisibleShield, i don't have a camera other then that on my HOX so i use other people pics... hhehe
[HTC One X] expertzero1:
Spigen faq page for the screen protectors

Why is the HTC One X Steinheil Series cut smaller than the display size?

Due to the curved screen of the HTC One X, dry application films cannot adhere to curved edges. Over time, the edges will bubble and attract dust and lint which will ultimately make the screen protector unusable. Cutting the screen protector to fit the maximum display area that is not curved ensures that the screen protector will protect your device's display longer without bubbling.
[HTC One X] cyben76:
yup, but never expected it to cover such a small surface area. Thought it would at least cover till the edge just before the curve surface starts.
[HTC One X] sh500:
+1

This is exactly what I have found with screen protectors that I have bought from eBay. They are far too narrow and am quite sure that making them wider would not adversely effect it.

It seems that there is a 'single manufacturing standard size' template, which then the majority of companies have adopted to base their One X screen protectors on.
[HTC One X] cyben76:
I had SGP screen protector, it only covered the visible part of the screen. I ordered Skinomi DryTech at the same time, but the full body skin did not fit well. I used the SGP got about 2 weeks, then just today decided to installs the Skinomi DryTech screen protector, it fits the screen right to the edges. It feels slightly rubbery, but not as bad some of the previous ones I had, the orange peel is not that obvious. Just fresh instal there are a few micro bubbles, I'll wait few days and see how it .

As for the Skinomi full body skin, I'm still waiting for a 2nd replacement, the first replacement did not fit that good as well.
[HTC One X] flupo2000:

Remember reading up on the original screen protector, it does not cover the whole screen and people were saying it was similar quality to the cheapo £3 ones from ebay.

[Nokia Lumia 900] cx1:
Since getting my Lumia 900 on the 14th I have replaced it twice. First was for the quality of the earpiece speaker. Second for the purple screen bug.

So I now have a descent but not great sounding earpiece but I am having serious call issues.

Often when people call me it tells them my number is not a working number. A lot of people call me and tell me it goes straight to voice mail. When that happens there is no call in the history just the voice mail. All the while I have nearly full LTE.

Sitting on the phone for an hour with At&t this morning I finally landed at a "tech" support person who obnoxiously stated if I am having trouble to get a Motorola or iPhone. The service is what it is and will not get any better on my phone. I switched from Tmobile and cannot believe the way I was treated by this rep.

So completely annoyed right now.

So is anyone else having these issues?
[Nokia Lumia 900] LordGreylock:
It's too bad you are having such a bad experience. It sounds to me like some of the issues with the calls are due to network and possible AT&T provisioning issues or something similar but not the phone itself.

My Lumia 900 sounds great, some of the best call quality on a phone I've had. I think possibly better than my iPhone 4S. I have had very few issues with mine.

I've heard of others having the purple screen issue but very few people having speaker or earpiece problems. I would continue to return it until you get one that works like it should.
[Nokia Lumia 900] foxbat121:
LordGreylock is right. I will start by going to an AT&T corp store and ask for a new SIM card. That typically clears out most provision issues.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
As the other 2 response do address what I think is the issue, what is not addressed is the rudeness of the support agent. Now, as a support agent, I know that sometimes you don't have a great day. But rudeness is never a good response.

On April 2nd, I was a very happy, or rather a happy Verizon customer. I owned that Motorola device your agent talked about. I had just recieved an update to the device, and all wifi and data, disappeared. Now, I am not a slouch when it comes to supporting devices. I did every thing I possibly knew to fix it. I called up forum gurus seeking their help. I could not fix it. I finally called Verizon support. My response was very similar to yours. I was told, Oh Well. After working around for a few minutes....I was once again told oh well. With the call obviously ended, the agent asked, is there anything else I can help you with. I replied, no, you've done quite enough. On April 3rd I ported my number to AT&T and bought a Samsung Focus S. Oh Well.

All carriers have the same issues. Whether you're with 1 or the other is simply a personal choice for personal reasons. I know that AT&T has no more or no less issues than Verizon. I could not give my money to Verizon after that experience.

The guru's here all agree, your primary issue is most likely service or provisioning and not hardware. Take it into a store if you can. Ask them to check your account. Be insistent, but not rude. Show them the phone is not acceptable in this condition. They should help you. Many of the problems on this forum so far have been resolved with a double check of accounts and provisioning. No doubt yours will be also.

But, do NOT accept the attitude of the support agent. That is not acceptable in any way, for any reason. Ask the in store employee for an avenue for Feedback. You might be able to find it online. But take the time to fill it out. It may not mean much in the total scheme of things, but use your voice. Verizon has called me 3 times to apologize for my service. They ask what they can do to make it up, so I do not remove my Xoom from their service. I tell them, you've done quite enough thank you.

Oh Well...
[Nokia Lumia 900] flooty333:
Coming from the iPhone 4, my Lumia is head and shoulders above the iPhone in reception, call quality and call volume.

It kinda blows me away how solid calls are on this phone.

Like others have said, it def sounds like theres an issue on how the network is recognizing/not recognizing your phone/sim. When first got my Lumia my SMS wasnt working for a few hours... did a soft reset and things started coming in. Almost like it needed to be reset on the network.

Good luck!
