[INFO] Played with... - HTC Sensation

So I got to play with this phone today and all I have to say is WOW I'm so impressed.... I felt like my G2x was outdated. The screen is amazing, light weight, amazing feel, new 3.0 UI is awesome, It just feels like my old nexus one. I only got to take 2pics. can't wait until june! I took just 2 pics, I didn't get to take many as the "anonymous" person that had it didn't let me take more lol.
If your thinking of getting the G2x for tmobile... Trust me, its right around the corner... Just hold off and wait on that sensation.

Sounds good to hear. Can't wait for release. How was the picture quality?

What determines my purchase is battery life. I really want this device.

So excited, can't wait to get this bad boy.

Pics
To OP. Would you be able to post the pics you took of the device? I know there are plenty out there, but just curious.
Thanks

i couldnt really try out the camera it was dark. i cant really post the pics because of work confidentiality purposes
good thing i didnt before, they are hawks on these forums now.

I hope they upgraded the Camera and loudspeaker, the IS has the same hardware of DHD!
I can imagine that with the new resolution the wallpapers will look perfect, though not super amoled + brightness and contrast
Sense 3.0 is the main reason I preffer Sensation over SGS2 but will not take the risk to buy it before it gets Root

Good. Hopefully they are getting the message about the boot loader. Don't follow in Motorola's footsteps... https://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=question&id=10150175871280731&qa_ref=ssp

I got to test the sensation in uk. The screen looked amazing the sound from the videos I saw were cool. Didn't get a chance to test thorough. I'm gonna wait for proper reviews from techradar and pocketnow. If they give thumbs up then that's cool by me. By the time they get it they should have the final rom.

That's cool. No need to get people in trouble. =P Did the phone at any point seem laggy or that it couldn't handle everything you were doing on it?

Looking for the honesty please...

As you can see in my sig, I am on a Cappy with Gingerbread and a rom that is working magnificently. I have my Cappy setup exactly the way I like it and Netflix works like a charm. As a matter of fact, I am going on a business trip next week and look forward to chillin in the airport with my earbuds in watching a movie on the Cappy...
that said, I had really been looking forward to the Infuse. I was going to give it a week and pick it up tomorrow. Then I started browsing the new forum yesterday and noticed that some of you are reporting issues. Netflix also doesn't work. I was really looking forward to the front facing camera among other things... If I was to ask advice (and I would really like your advice), I would imagine some will tell me to just wait until an update comes out or the dev section really gets going. Any thoughts? Thanks for sharing.
I cant speak for the Cappy, but in the last 2 months I went from the iPhone 4, to the Atrix, to the Inspire, to the Infuse.
The Infuse is now my favorite phone that I have ever owned. It has the best of all of them combined.
Yes there are a few bugs, no there is no roms yet, but we all know that will come in the not far future. Get one now, and you'll get to enjoy it a little longer

Camera is very, very good. See engadget's review if u don't believe me.
GPS - flawless. When you're on the trip - ur cappy will make u furious driving around wasting time and getting tickets (been there, done that, sold that piece of ****)
Netflix - no idea, don't care
It's huge. Thing is a shovel, just attach a handle.
Screen - amazing, SAMOLED Plus, need I say more?
Battery life - so far crappy, but it's not broken in yet. Supposed to be better, since it's 1750mah.
Also, more RAM, enough to keep my Opera, couple of HD games and some apps open without need to reopen them when Android clears RAM.
Definite upgrade over craptivate. That phone was sweet, but non-existent GPS on it killed it for me. Stupid thing made me spend $$ driving around like an idiot.
Warning: I'm easily influenced by positive responses and may end up leaving for my business trip Monday with an Infuse in tow.
Just what I was looking for... Thanks for the responses thus far.
Yes my friend..i have my cappy (was my main device) inspire both on cm7. I have not picked them up since i bought this animal.

This is what makes me foam at the mouth. I played with an Infuse in the store yesterday and the 4G speed is ridiculous. Web pages just appear. The lack of a front facing cam is something that I thought should have landed the Cappy designers back behind the woodshed.

Wife has my old Vibrant which is unlocked on ATT and has the front facing cam....and it is awesome....so for me there was no question....especially when all phone seem to be going that route...
My 3g where i live is almost as fast as 4g so my cappy did great...
I will say this....if there was any chance i could have added a FFC to my captivate i would not have change phones...

No Netflix no problem! Download the PlayOn app on your phone and PC. Free trial is 14 days, after its $4.99 a month. It automatically detects configuration on your pc allowing you to stream on 3g/4g. Best thing about playon is not only does it stream Netflix and and anything you want from your PC (music videos pics) it also has hulu integration! You can watch any hulu video just as you would in Netflix. Not thru a broswer but thru a deticated app. Quality is magnificient most hulu is in HD. There's even plugins so you can watch most network shows, NBC, FOX, CBS ect. Try it out! You won't be disappointed!

Oh and PS. I've had every single phone in the world honestaly, every generation iphone, nexus one nexus s HTC inspire, captivate, atrix, blackberrys, and now the infuse. I'm a phone junkie/addict. I always want the best and I always want the latest. I can honestaly say this is.the best phone I.have ever used and I love every little thing about it. I buy all my ohones off contract and soon regret it. I don't regret this one. If the galaxy s 2 or iphone 5 came out tomorrow I woildnt blink an eye. 4.5 inches samoled is magnificient! The thing is super thin super light and super sexy looking. This is the best phone I've ever had, and I know everything about phones they all have their flaws or get boring after a while. I'm still in awe at this bad boy. 4.5 samoled iis the new standard for me. Dual core is all marketing IMHO. This thing is faster than my atrix ever was

Good Choice!
I just got mine yesterday, i come from a Motorola Atrix 4G.
i can honestly say I LOVE THIS PHONE!
1. EYE CANDY! super slick and sexy. i would suggest a mirrored screen protector just for that mirror finish as the phone has gray chrome around it.
2. Massive screen. 4.5. i thought the HD2 was the biggest i would of ever gone. Super Amoled screen.
3. thinest smartphone. 'nough said.
4. it snappy, very snappy. i thought my atrix was fast with its dual core... this phone easily out paces the atrix in everyday use.
5. Touchwiz. the only custom UI that i have seen that does not slow down the phone like sense or motoblur.
6. 8MP camera. this phone carrier a really good lens on its back. i took dissection pictures of my cat at school. they look real nice. i would upload but idk the rules so yeah.
7. Long long battery life. well for me at least. this was under high usage texting music pictures and other stuff. words with friends... angry birds... you know.
thats pretty much it i guess. its a really good choice. and a really great phone. you will like it.

we have a samsung chipset. but it works on samsung with gingerbread. so no worries.
I also have a Cappy....actually use it now for my "work" phone, and have my new baby as my personal phone. I absolutely love the new infuse. Have been running custom roms like cm7, paragon, ff, you name it I've tried it... and loving this stock infuse more, than the Cappy any day. Its everything the Cappy should have been out of the box.

oh yeah true dat. hmmm idk who told me it had a qualcomm. oh well. same difference right?
it is too easy to get sucked into the rom frenzy with the cappy. and then the power of suggestion that the phone is laggy and such creates this striving for improvement constantly. i know i was there. my oppinion is that the cappy is not as bad as it is made out to be if you leave it basically stock. the infuse however doesnt the shortcomings of the cappy. it has both camera, a flash, unknown sources, bigger screen, better audio vs the cappy stock(slightly). same audio hardware, but better implimented or newer drivers. and the gps hardware is not marginalized. i have come to find out that tracking in google maps can be funky on any phone but with the cappys hardware it was a nightare untill you got the jupiter.xml all corrected and played with the settings.
the infuse is good out of the box but after putting some of my known good settings from the captivate in it was great. but then after trying agps settings full time it was phenomenal! this really is the best gps i have seen. it seems the hardware layout is changed. the gps seems to work during phone calls(didnt on the cappy, god forbid you are driving and someone calls you) as does the camera.
i got laughed at when i complained about photos in phone calls in the captivate section no one would work on it, now id bet it is a hardware limitation. now if im on speaker phone with someone who doesnt have video calling i can just text them pictures

Proud owner of G2x

So yesterday I went into the store to play a little with the sensation and man I'm glad I got a G2x since release date and not waited for the Sensation. It felt slow all over the place and I compared everything with my G2x.
My G2x felt super smooth while the sensation was feeling laggy and stuttery.
Quadrant scores ( Rounded numbers)
Sensation - 1900
G2x - 2400 (Running stock)
The screen was the biggest dissapointment, The screen was all washed out, and with a yellowish tint. I was hoping to see a major improvement with the higher resolution but didn't compare at all against our phone.
So overall I didn't like the Sensation over the G2x and is not even a match when It comes to speed.
I am a proud owner of the G2x.
Hopefully they start selling the G2x soon. I am pretty sure T-Mobile will be marketing the G2x much more once they release the gingerbread update.
My advise is that you go to your T-Mobile store and try them both and decide for yourself.

Thats it, best answer !! ....Several people have called this out. Go try it. If you like it...buy it. Good for you. If you don't, then good for you. Reasons for buying or not buying anything are between you and yourself.
Please feel free to not share those reasons....privacy laws and all...I'm sure you understand...
Yeah, I understand.
And don't get me wrong, Sensation is a good phone, just like you said, if you like it buy it if you don't, don't buy it. Lol

In my opinion, the G2x, right now, isn't ready for the general public. I think it is a good thing they aren't selling them again until GB comes out.
For me, the phone is a beast. I'm not afraid to root it and start ripping out crap that causes problems or flashing custom software or patches. The phone, completely stock, suffers from crappy programming.
Thats one thing that kills me about Android. I LOVE android but manufactures dig their own graves. Google should hire the CM team officially and make all phones require AOSP drivers. I mean the Nexus One still gets official updates from Google. If Google hired the CM team to work on making phones compatible with AOSP roms, then all phones could get pushed stable updates the way Google pushed updates to the Nexus phones.
See right now, manufactures have to build roms around their drivers. If all phones were made compatible to the same set of drivers then we wouldn't have this fragmentation crap.
They need to make the overlays just additional installs.

Ill tell you why I love it. Continuous focus! As soon as I hit the shutter button it takes the pictured unlike the G2X that takes 2 to 3 seconds. I can miss a lot of action shots in 2 to 3 seconds.

I wonder if anyone has as little of bleed as I do. Mines basically non issue even on black screen. The 3 before this I thought were good, it never bugged me anyway but man this is perfect ..
I feel has for the dude who traded me this for my sensation .. poor Guy is probably kicking himself
Also, on cm7, very very stable finally. Battery is great and it reads correctly now and the screen brightness is great ...
Now time for some kernel's .. sensation was so boring after a few days. No root etc.. boooooo

Lmfaooo I know right. But seriously, that phone was buuuuuuggy, I'm glad to be rid of that piece of cow dung. Sorry, but my 3 experiences are enough for me to say, no more HTC devices for me..
Good you are back.
Thread closed then.

This is for the myTouch 4G Slide!
This is an amazing phone! I will definitely get one of these to replace my Desire Z
Looking forward to replacing my HTC Glacier
Me too! 10 char
Curious
I am thinking about buying this phone but being that's its so new... im skeptical. the reason being i want to know if i can add wifi hotspot to this phone after its been rooted
Even before being rooted you can do the wifi hotspot works like a charm!
Ill just let yall know. I have the mt4gs. It is sick. The keyboard is awesome, camera is awesome, no s-off yet but in due time it will come. Wicked fast. As soon as i turned it on i installed quadrant and it ran a 1995 right out of the box. Not bad. Imagine when we are able to overclock this bad boy. This phone has alot of potential. The only downside is that it is a little heavy. But you get used to the weight after holding it for a few minutes. Overall, im glad i picked this phone. Peace.

I love how heavy this phone. I feel like i can break other phones lol.
Agreed, I like at least a little bit of heft, otherwise the phone feels flimsy. I think this one is just fine considering it is a slider.
This is the best smartphone i've ever fked with. The photos are incredible. Operations are snappy ofr course.

i am waiting impatiently for an after market large battery from about 3600, like the mugen for the desire z/ g2.
the phone is awesome .
I also really like the default rom with rotating rosie and 5 change able icons in the dock.
camera app is awesome .
also filming in full hd looks pretty well
thanks! however, what i meant to say was a hacked wifi hotspot? without the fee =)
Just traded my sensation to get this =) much better phone imo

You dont have to use a hacked wifi hotspot. The stock one works. My wife works for tmobile and they tell you that there is a fee. But you can use it without the hotspot plan.

Im very impressed with the build quality of this phone. Im coming from the mytouch 4G. That phone was plaqued with issues.

Yea man, it's almost unbelievable what you can throw at this phone and it still just keeps chugging away doing it's thing.
I've been impressed with it since before I got it, and since getting one it's exceeded all my lofty expectations.
Quite a few times i've been using it, and then when I slid out the keyboard surprised people by that, guess they weren't expecting that after seeing what I was doing with it.
I've been running around plugging it into televisions and playing movies at peoples houses and stuff which is pretty killer. Just about everyone i've met who casually owns an android phone and doesn't get into it like we do here has said "let me try that" and plugged my video cable into their headphones jack...but of course, no dice for them.
One thing i've noticed, after stopping in to just about every T-Mobile store around my area is that most reps have this phone, either in khaki or black. (i'm glad I have a black one though, don't quite like the look of the khaki).
All in all - probably the most impressive piece of hardware on the market at the moment, and has held up pretty well to some demanding field tests.
Can't say enough how much I like the phone - digging into it and running it through the ringer has become an almost around the clock obsession since root became available.
I've already gotten a few people in the process of switching over to T-Mobile just to get this phone, but the darned thing sells itself in all of it's awesomeness.
I like this phone more so than my sensation, mainly for its size and good picture ability. The sensation has a good camera too though, but the MT4GS's is a lot better and i like the dedicated button to take pictures. The build quality of this phone is nice too, it reminds me of what my Touch Pro 2 could have been with more ram and a better cpu.

Help me replace my HD2

Hey guys
I'm kind of out of the smartphone loop. A couple years ago I had a HD2 and it was a beaufitul thing, mainly due to the amount of different things you could do with it. However about 7 months ago the touch screen stopped responding and so its not just a beautiful paper weight. For a while my friend leant me her old desire which worked nicely for me with a custom rom. However she had to take it back and now im stuck with my old SE z530i...
So basically im looking for something equivalent to the HD2 in terms of its abilities and what not, I do like high spec phones but Im not willing to go as far as the £500 I spent on my HD2. Is there a phone out atm between the levels of a desire and a Hd2? Whats the galaxy nexus turned out to be like?
Cheers!
BUMP
Good luck with that.....The HD2 is probably the most developed phone out there. You can always just replace the screen? I have heard it is pretty easy.
Just hold out for the SGSIII, it will be out this month. Of course it is not as highly developed but at least it can see when you look at it.....
Oh, and Bumping is prohibited. If someone wants to answer you, they will.

It's hard times for ppl like us... i changed after 30months with a HD2 to the HTC One X.
the One X has a perfect screen and amazing specs, it's really cool, but development seems to be very slow, and nowhere as near the HD2
I'm really thinking of going back to the HD2! it was just pure freedom, nothing gets near it
i don't have much info about the Galaxy Nexus though. you could visit the forum and see yourself

Hmm I know what you mean, you can do anything with the HD2. Maybe I'll just pay for the screen to be replaced on it. I don't know but I'm not a huge fan of the Galaxies, they seem to plasticy and tacky, maybe its cause im used to the metal behind of the HD2.

Is it just slow? or not many developers working on roms etc?

There seem to be enough devs, but we still don't have S-OFF. not many are looking into this prob..
we still need to flash the "boot.img" kernel via the PC, with phone in fastboot mode..
this, everytime when we change to a ROM with a different base.
but we have a working CM9 ROM now, I'm very happy with it.. I can't stand sense >.< and most ROMs are just stripped down sense ROMs, or modified ones
but maybe i'm just too spoiled from the time with my HD2.. >.<
I was in town yesterday and I had the chance to try out the HTC one X. Its specs impressed me and its build quiality seemed closer to the HD2 than anything else I'd seen. Anyone got anything bad to say about it?

like i said, the device itself is amazing, only bad point is that you can't exchange the battery, and it doesn't have a SDCard slot.
Besides this, develpment is slow, but i'm satisfied now, that we have a really good working unoficial cm9 ROM.
Theres even an AOKP ROM now, wich i want to try soon
But if you like sense, there are enough ROMs for this available..
