thanks guys.

well priceing its gonna be cheeper to buy a new handset than a new LCD.

the main mother board didnt actualy get wet. the keyboard and the back of the LCD were the worst hit. thanks to the whole split screan thing. i think had this been the xda2 it may have survived.

the only question now is do i go in search of another blue angle... or do i bite the bullet and get the 2i. better camera definatly an attraction but the blueangel keyboard is fantastic if your using instant msn. ether way i have to wait till the middle of june because o2 wont let me have another one without paying full price even though my upgrade is a month away.

:( i love my XDA..... :(

[Java for Android App Development] Makbrar3215:
I am pretty new to coding and app development. After searching around this is an easy thing to do. But I'm so stupid I can figure it out.

So what I need is to add a hardware function to a toggle switch. If you know how to add function to it. What I need is to send all audio through the earpiece when the toggle switch is on. Can you please put the whole code I need to do this? Please help me out!
[Java for Android App Development] vijai2011:
After you define your toggle switch in your xml, you can add a id and then you can

android:onClick="onSwitchClicked"

anywhere between the toggle block. This will say what to do when the toggle is clicked. Now put the below method in your class to control the toggle status:

public void onSwitchClicked(View view) {
switch(view.getId()){
case R.id.switch1:
if(switch1.isChecked()) {
// To do when 1st switch is on
}
else {
//To do when 1st switch is off
}
break;
case R.id.switch2:
if(switch2.isChecked()) {
//To do when 2nd switch is on
}
else {
//To do when 2nd switch is off
}
break;
}
}

You can extended to as many switches you want by providing different id's for the switch in xml and controlling that with case statements in the java.

And for controlling the audio, You can use audiomanager class

AudioManager am = (AudioManager) getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);

am.setSpeakerphoneOn(true); //sets audio via speaker
am.setWiredHeadsetOn(true); //sets audio via headset

After googling for a while, and searching elsewhere, it strikes me as odd that Bluetooth headsets only have studio speaker support and not mic support.. Logistically, it seems a simple task - if a Bluetooth headset is present, use its mic rather than the phone's mic.

Had anyone heard of anything in the works anywhere?

[General Questions and Answers] magus57:
It won't arrive for a little bit, so I figure I'll ask some questions in the meantime.

Is there confirmation as to whether it supports MHL 2.0? I've seen conflicting info, in that some places don't even mention MHL support.

Does it work with the Smart Dock like the regular S4 and whatnot? Assuming it works with MHL 2.0, I don't see why it wouldn't work with the Smart Dock.

What kind of sound hardware does it have? I don't suppose its Wolfson...

Does it support exFAT for the microSD? I've seen confirmation that it supports 64GB cards at least.

And any idea if it'll have a wireless charging back like for the S4? Don't know if it even supports wireless charging.
[HTC Sensation] :
Ok so, as the title implies I'm thinking of getting a Sensation on the cheapside (160€) almost brand new. However I do have a few questions:

1. Would you say the phone is worth the price?

2. Do you think it is a good phone? What's your overall experience?

3. I mostly use my phone for multitasking and gaming sometimes, so does it fit the bill? The 512RAM thing scares me, my Galaxy W said it had 512MB but it had like, 378MB. I hated how it ran out of memory.

4. How is custom rom development for the phone?

Cheers and thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] AndroidSupporter318:
1. I think a new sensation is not worth it. You can get a used for ~120-150 USD.

2. Great experience. 2 major setbacks: bad battery life and low ram(in my opinion as I am a heavy multitasker)

Battery life can be fixed with a replacement anker battery, and ram can be fixed with turbo swap.

Disadvantages are: medium resolution screen/4.3 inch screen(kind of low for video watchers), speakers aren't that great.

3. Ram is OK. It's 768 megabytes, but that can be fixed with turbo swap space module.

4. Custom ROM development is freakin awesome. We just got the 3.4 kernel with ion allocation, USB otg, and other cool stuff. We have aosp Roms(cm9/cm10/cm10.1), sense Roms(3.6/4/4.1/4+no sense 5 :(

I like my sensation, but I liked my galaxy sii more, 160€ seems like too much, I got mine on eBay for $140 in like February it should be cheaper now, if you go on eBay you should be able to get a one s for 160€
[HTC Sensation] :
I'm not going for a new one, this is as cheap as I can find second hand in my country (Portugal) and that includes ebay. It is quite the upgrade from my current (for two more days) Galaxy W and better than most alternatives I could find.

Getting a battery shouldn't be that hard, what's this anker thing though? And TurboSwap? I'll try and read up the link to see if I can learn more :P

Glad to hear Custom ROM development is well :D That's a very big factor in my phone buying decisions, actually. I don't like Sense though, so I think I'll tinker around and see what I prefer!

I wish I could. The cheapest I can find a One S is around 250€ both locally and on eBay and I can't afford that atm. I will admit the SII is better hardware-wise, the look of it is just too unappealing and blocky, haha
[HTC Sensation] astar26:
1) I don't know how to compare it to what's on offer today so I won't answer that

2) I'll just say I enjoyed (and still do) every moment with this phone. I get good enough battery life (and I say that as a traveler who tends to spend a lot of time away from the charger). Performance is nice (everything is smooth and I hadn't found an app that won't run because of power), and build quality is great (except for dust on screen issue which my device suffers from, it survived some nasty falls, which to compare to my dad's GS4 (which dropped from 0.5m on a floor and died), the device is just awesomly built.

3) On stock roms I got issues with that, but once you are rooted and use custom ROMs there are many tweaks available to improve your performance. I must say that CM runs silky smooth with lots of apps running in the background, while sense roms started struggling after some time (but still were good). about the lower amount of RAM than advertised, it's because the GPU reserves RAM as dedicated memory for it to work (like desktop GPUs with their own RAM).

4) Just awesome, there are many ROMs available,just like AndroidSupporter318 said, now we even have ION.

I would like to just add something to think about: Just remember we are talking about a 2 year old device, so know what you buy (no more official support from HTC, unless the end of the world comes and they decide to update it, and nothing can be guarranteed on the long run). but as it goes today, custom ROM development will continue for a while, and there are many users, so I believe as things are now it's still fine.

Edit: Forgot about this, but when compared to the GS2, at least in my opinion performance seems better, and I actually like the screen of the sensation more. These things are subjective, but that's my opinion on it.

[HTC Sensation] :
Thanks for another informed opinion :)

I'm looking up this ION thing you guys mentioned, I had never heard of it. Also, I am aware I'm buying a non-supported phone by HTC, then again HTC usually drops their phones at the drop of a hat so that's not to be surprised. That's why what I look for more in a phone is community-development and build quality + hardware. Hope that makes sense!

Awesome! :D
[HTC Sensation] Far_SighT:
ION is JB's new memory mangement, and it replaces ICS's PMEM.

Thanks to [MENTION=2212152]SebastianFM[/MENTION], we can now have Sense 4+ JB roms on SEnsation XE.
[HTC Sensation] Gatosbil:
I have HTC Sensation S710e and I think it is an exellent choice to buy a mobile phone like this as long as you can give it s-off with Juopunutbear S-OFF guide without to unlock bootloader.Secontly they are a big varity of custom roms and recoveries you can try on your device.
[HTC Sensation] MechanicaIMan:
The speaker sucks.

It gets dust trapped under the screen.

Battery life is pretty bad (mine came with an Anker battery, and battery life is still pretty unimpressive).

Other than that, I've been pretty happy with mine.
[HTC Sensation] onemanshow85:
1) like said before, 160€ may be overprized but if that's the common price in your region, then I guess you're still paying a relative good price. Especially since newer phones are heavily overprized these days.

2) I think it's a good phone. I like to compare my rooted sensation to brand new stock powerhouses like GS4. Even though they're much faster, the self-defined MHZ/euro ratio is much better in my case. I like the fact I can keep up well with brand new devices with my more then 2 yo device. I even outperform some phones in battery life.

the build quality is good, it's the way a decent phone should be build. Decent camera with LED and no plastic.

3) Especially after rooting, I never encountered a situation where I ran out of memory or ended up with bad perfomance. I must say I'm not an extensive multitasker, but I'll have to add that I never felt the need for a taskkiller app or such. And I keep apps running on a regular basis. I think a dual core is more then capable for multitasking, and the phone packs a decent amount of RAM.

4) amazing custom ROM support. There are plenty of flavours for both sense and no-sense ROMs. I myself am running CM10 for quite a while now and I like my former sense phone being a pure google 4.2.2. Many ROMs with a lot of tweaks, UI tuning and themes. I can boost my stock 1.2 GHz to a outstanding 1836 MHz

Since new phones are so expensive, the custom ROM support for this phone keept me hanging in on to it for a additional year. I took a SIM-only subscription because I feel no need for a replacement.

overall, you get more phone for buck wih a sensation compared to new devices.

Indeed a disadvantage, the sensation is a dust collector. Many models suffer from the little bit of dust under the screen and the speaker needs to be cleaned on a regular basis.

I don't agree with your opinion on the battery. I think you're not being relative in this case. When are you impressed? Don't expect it to last 3 days away from a charger. But 1,5 to 2 days with average use is excellent perfomance. I can reach 2 days when I only use it to check facebook, news, wheater, whatsapp and a occasional call. Don't forget that new devices wouldn't last a day in these conditions because of their huge screens and power-eating quad/octa cores.
[HTC Sensation] EfrainTrejo:
I would say get it for the development and there are things like turbo swap to help on the memory situation.
[HTC Sensation] gleesonger:
I bought mine second hand after moving from desire HD.

I find the dev stuff to be great (currently on viper JB ROM). With an Anker battery I get 2 days out of it (I'm a light user with everything turned on) really those batterys are amazing. 2 of my friends (who are both on stock) use the battery and both are utterly amazed at the difference they make.

I do find the RAM a little on the small side but I dont notice that all that often.
[HTC Sensation] Anti_simlock:
Ok back then when I bought this, there weren't many phones available, but now phones companies went crazy, releasing new phones almost every 2 months, especially HTC. But I remember when I ownd all phones with my badass dual core phone, while most people only had a single core chip built in.

Apart from that, the phone itself looks kinda cool with the red lights & speakers.

But with the phones currently available, I'd suggest wait a few more months, maybe save some more money and then go to the One series.

I know a lot of people just think, a new phone came out -> current phones = all crap, but you just have to think back when this was released, it kicked ass :cowboy:
[HTC Sensation] astar26:
When buying a new phone, you should not think what it was, but what it is. Today you can't say it's a strong device (even if when released it was one of the strongest available), because there are many devices which overpower it by a significant margin.

Anyway, in my opinion, it still kicks ass

Hi,

Just wanted to get BT working well on my PDA2k.

Did the Radio upgrade as told in wiki to 1.10 - as I saw a few comments saying 1.12 was unstable.

WEnt through fine, except now I cannot get a phone signal at all and the phone call buttons don't work.

What is the best thing to do? Should I just do the whole upgrade to 1.40. I read that the phone was locking up on this and was not confident to do the fix.

Appreciate your help.

(Going back to 1.22 for now as I have now wasted 4 hours precious work tome just trying to get the device to work as it originally should!)

W know have 3 threads on the 1.40.

All seem to post errors with that rom in some minor way.

Myself I went for the 1.40 converted to type I and have not added the ext rom (yet). also have 1.12, in all I am happy with it as I have not come across any of those issues (as i dont use the camera, ect). So far Imate makes the best rom IMHO.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] efjay:
MDAIIIUser, which 1.40 rom are you using? The one from the original thread "New Rom 1.40 on FTP" or the one you converted from this thread "BA_WWE_14000_147_11200_Ship" ? There should not be any differences between roms i think, but i find there are some subtle variances. Is it possible that conversion can corrupt the final rom produced? Your converted rom seems to work better for me but still need a soft reset now and then
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
converted to type I qtek 147.

It could be possible that conversion is corupt but dont think so, check wiki avlible roms and see the passed with new tool. all of these roms have been confirmed to work.

Sure I have issues with this rom but they are carry over from 1.02, 1.22, 1.31 and now 1.40. Most based on alarm issues as well as remove from power were i get locked due to i-pass (i think)

I will do a hex file compare on the 1.40 ce from qtec and see if i see anything.

Type I roms work with tool xda3nbtool.exe

Tpye II roms give you a header error when used with tool.

Thus you can only upgrade type I roms unless you know the country code fix that seems to work.

Wiki is my prefered choice for downloading roms, in the case of the 1.40 I used the thread to download the converted 1.40 to type I rom which was not hard for me as I posted it. (its the qtek 1.40.147)

MDAIIIUser, i saw your reply in another thread after comparing the 1.40 roms. How about the first 1.40 rom posted in this file BA_1.40_radio_1.20_untested_extrom.rar on the ftp? This should be the same as all the others right? I seem to have had fewer problems with this rom than the converted to type I qtek 147. My main problem seems to be turning the phone on after being in flight mode, losing network signal and GPRS sometimes not connecting. All need a soft reset to resolve. The from BA_1.40_radio_1.20_untested_extrom.rar gave me problems when trying to turn on wifi. Im using radio 1.12.

It takes me just over an hour to download roms of this site which I know is my problem.

I dont like working with baked roms as I can't post them to wiki as they are not complete,

I can't cook the Ext Rom as it to is not original,

I can't post the ext rom in wiki

and thus the hour download is a waste of my time.

I seem to spend enough time updating wiki and finding new roms on the web so sorry the answer is no I wont check that rom untill I see a original ship.exe.

You could though
