HDMI/USB

I'm quite confused on the sensation ports.
Does it have a micro USB port or the HDMI port on the phone for charging?
Or does it have both?

has micro usb port. to do HDMI out you need to use an MHL dongle/cable/whatever

Also, does it charge your phone while plugged in to the TV?

It will with a MHL-enabled TV, or with a charger plugged into the MHL dongle.

If you a xbox or ps3 you can play movies,music, pictures off it to with regular usb wire.

Check http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/AddOns...4ec1-a08e-e133fa772d53&inCart=True&catCode=23
On tmobiles website. Might get one later.

I have two MHL adapters, and soon a Sensation, will post up info about how well it works from the Sensation (brilliant with my SGSII).

Is there a cheaper way of doing it

Ebay

Would the "GTMax Gold Plated High Speed Micro HDMI Male to Standard HDMI Male Cable For Archos 101 Internet Tablet BlackBerry PlayBook" from Amazon work properly with the HTC Sensation. Because so far it seems to be the cheapest cable on Amazon for the job

No mhl's on ebay

will this work?

no, there's no HDMI (micro or otherwise) port on the phone. Expansys seems to have a cheap aftermarket cable available that'll do the trick

Will do...

Sorry, should have linked to it on their site http://www.expansys-usa.com/expansys-mhl-to-hdmi-adapter-black-218572/
$16.99, adapts microUSB (male) to full-size HDMI (female), it's a "coming soon" product that doesn't seem to have an ETA.

So I got my mule adapter from tmobile....works great so far....must have the charger hooked up to the dongle for it to work....gonna play some movies and games wand will report back later

Mini is thicker, more block-ish on the top. Micro is thinner, more rounded on the top.

Whichever you get make sure it is capable of putting out full charge. A lot will only put out around 500mA and so will charge as if it was plugged into a pc and if you are using sat nav it will drain even though its on charge.

I've just purchased this baby: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0044BBEBA/ref=oss_product
and it's currently on its way to me. I can update you once I have received it and let you know how it is!
I'm anticipating the release of a TomTom app for the Android platform so that I can give my TomTom One IQ Routes to my parents.

Tnx for replay guys, much appreciate!

Bought this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200555043670&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Works great and very fast shipping!

I've never seen that other HTC charger that's linked above, but I got the HTC CC C200 that they sell. From what I've seen, all HTC chargers have the cable detached.

Apparently they are a higher voltage but they charge the phone faster and are safe to use. Also you can get them for cheapo online

I doubt anything with higher voltage is
safe to use. Higher amperage is what enables fast charging. Regular USB is 500ma, the stock HTC chargers are 1000ma (1amp) that have faster charging.

+1 for the blackberry charger. The cord is way longer too so you can prance around while its plugged in.

I use the stock HTC charger when I'm traveling. I replaced my wall sockets at home with ones that have USB ports in them. They work perfectly fine. I believe the ones I have are about 1 amp.

I was just thinking the other day it would be cool if they made those. Got something on my to do list now!

i would be wary of HTC ebay wall chargers, there's probably tons of fakes out there. I somehow managed to buy a pair of fake HTC "oem" headphones the other day that lasted about two days before one ear broke (not to mention the phone controls were WACK).

I'd suggest going to amazon and getting an amazonbasics cable. They're really cheap, they make long ones, and I've had great experiences with them. As for wall chargers, I've had good luck with my one x using BlackBerry, HTC, amazon (for Kindle fire) and nook chargers. Just find one with nice amperage.

Checkout monoprice.com . We get all our cables and chargers there

+1 for bb chargers they don't cause any wake locks like cheap chargers do and a long usb
I use stock HTC

Definitely do not use the one that comes with the HP Touchpad. short circuited my phone :/
