NO ETA.. Any time soon.. :/ EDIT: Possible hope? - HTC Sensation

Just got off the phone with an HTC rep. Talking about my landscape wifi bug and i mentioned the bootloader. i asked him if in the OTA will it unlock our devices and give us s-off and he said yes it will. Bad news is that they don't have plans in doing an OTA any time soon. Damn HTC. Damn them to hell.
EDIT: Apparently Paul is in direct contact with HTC. Might be coming faster than i and the retarted Rep knows!!

It's just a phone rep, I wouldn't read too much into it.
I'm sure they'll get it rolled out fairly quickly or they risk the modding market heavily favouring the Galaxy S II, and they can't afford that.

Well now that sucks... Just got the phone today, and was hoping that they will do something about it sometime soon....
Oh well, thank god we are not waiting on them only, and that we have some incredible devs in here that are going to kick the bootloaders butt, and do what HTC had to do long time ago.
Id rather see the devs do this, because if its just a given - its not all that much fun. Would love to donate for a job well done. I believe in you guys, you can do it!!

Just hope they aint like motorola and backflip on their promise. It just wouldn't make 'sense'

I definitely think there will be an update for that phone, but I would just be happy having an htc sensation (even though the galaxy s ii is a dream).

I had mine for one day then took it out.

You might have to change the title of your post mate. I just asked Paul if he had any insider info as to when HTC will roll out OTA for 1.34 and he replied "Very soon"!
It gives me a lot of hope, Paul is in direct contact with HTC... I believe he knows more than the CS who is based god knows where and has no clue about what's going on.
Awesome news!

I was sat on the train the other day opposite someone with a Sony laptop. It had the plastic sheet still over the back of the laptop, peeling off in the corners and full of bubbles. I just wanted to rip it off, then give them a slap!!

Lol me too. Annoys the crap out of me. It doesn't protect the screen in any efficient manner, they always have bubbles after short periods (cause not designed to stay) and often make the screen harder to read (much much clearer without)
If you must have a screen protector (pointless if you ask me, glass is far stronger than plastic screen protectors) buy one designed for the job, cheap skates, what are they? $2?
Naked all the way for me, don't even like cases, just give me a belt clip holster and I'm happy
Lol, sorry for off topic rant but I couldn't help it, glad to see someone feels the same, I'm not crazy, well not alone at least

I HATE fingerprints though!! and fine.. i MIGHT.. MIGHT take it off
I read text fine with mines on. and it makes navigating on the screen (especially using swype) alot easier IMO. and my phone feels like i just took it out the box with the plastic still on the gorgeous screen.

G2x update

Just went to the local store and was going to by a g2x for my wife out of stock while I was there, guess who a LG REP I probed her for questions did not answer me why no longer on sale, could not tell me but she did assured me that LG will. Be pushing an update VERY SOON.. what ever that means
P.s. she was not as hot as the LG girl

that was a bit un-necessary eh? you can see the "add to cart" button is greyed out. it's pretty much confirmed. The phone is no longer, for the moment at least, up for grabs on the t-mob site and I would guess in stores. just a guess tho
watch t-mo will probably say hey you can trade in your g2x for the new sensation. and watch everyone get pissed cause of the locked bootloaders and tmo will be laughing their asses off

Do you think there will be 2 updates: one to fix the current issues and the other Gingerbread, or 1 update that combines the two? I hope it's both. Right now my phone is on it's way here. I will test to see if I have the same problems as others have.

Update is any day now...they pulled the remaining stock because of two reasons...
1. QC issues with the first few batches
2. The update will need to be applied OTA so it proly makes more sense to do that in house then sell the phones....
these are my OPINIONS, btw...I know I come across as like I know something, but I'm actually an idiot...do not listen to me

Weirdly enough my backlight bleed resolved itself. It was pretty bad now its not there at all. I agree it needs to be fixed and I think they're just processing the boatload of returns they got on the device.
And the Sensation is a rather large downgrade from the G2x... The Snapdragon's graphics capability is less than half what the G2x pulls stock, let alone when overclocked. I'd leave T-Mobile if they tried to force a Sensation down my throat.
Me too lol I would not take a sensation at ALL!

Oh, I don't want the Sensation either. If I did, I would have already returned the G2X and used my Vibrant until then. I am sticking to what I said before and that is, I feel that the G2X is the better device that will hold me over until Tmo gets there SGSII variant. I have wanted that phone since I saw it.
I made my comment because I don't think T-Mobile would ever take our devices back, give us a different phone and discontinue the G2X completely. Thats a serious loss of revenue. No company in there right mind would do that. The most T-mobile will do is replace our phones with working ones from a new batch.
They can have my g2x.... when they pry it from my cold dead fingers. I ain't gonna update ****. My phone works perfectly. Even though I was a bit disapoonted with the can boasting 8mp and have suck ass features this phone rocks. I hope those who do have issues get some justice though.
"If Satan lived in heaven he'd be me.... "
Would anyone be able to link the post regarding the g2x being pulled? I'm just getting into the android world and the g2x is my first android device and I love it. I can't even find a example of the screen bleed everyone is talking about.
Guess I don't have the issue since I love my screen, but the constant radio bounce is annoying, so is the phone turning off in the middle of the night and not waking me when it's time to go to work. But that had only happen once.

Pressed screen sound

Does the sensation make cracking sounds when you press on the screen with little effort? It is similar to the sound the back battery cover makes when it gets pressed on other devices. Just quivering if its a defect or normal. I think its the noise of the edge of the screen rubbing with the frame of the phone.

There are a lot of threads about this. A lot off people are getting new covers from HTC. You can also try to put a little tape on the inside of the cover, to make.it more snug

so this is common and most people can hear a noise of the phones cover when the screen is pressed using about the same amount of pressure as snapping your fingers?

I'm getting it next week so I'll let you know. I did my exchange through T-Mobile. I tried doing it online, but the CSR rep wasn't picking up on what I said so I just called. They handle all the stuff for me and are sending me a phone from HTC.
I got my replacement today and it was just the phone, not the back cover. Not sure if it's a refurb or a new model. I have no more creaking sounds and the screen doesn't "give" anymore either. Hope that helps.
If it makes a noise when you press "right there" then don't press right there. Never in by wildest dreams have I ever thought of returning my phone cuz it made "a noise". I'm sorry, but that's just ridiculous. You complain about sounds created from actions that aren't part of everyday use. It's like you sit and look for defects just so you have something to complain about. It's insane. I'm sorry if this comes off as rude or a rant, but it just bugs me seeing just so many useless threads like this.

If you're talking to me, it isn't the only issue I had. I had light leaking through the bottom left hand corner, the text/screen flicker issue, and the fact the battery would overheat while charging at times. I paid a premium price for the phone and I expect to get my money's worth. I don't think that's unfair.

I agree. i have searched and found a bunch of people that had the creaking sound when pressing on the screen. unsure why but my intention was to find out of it was common and everyone had this issue or not. i also have screen problems at times and that is when i called tmobile about it and at the end mentioned the creaking sound. the back shell is defective thats why its creaking. if i really wanted to start picking things to complain and return the device i would have done that for not having a external sd or small pointless crap like that or how the official case covers holes in the back. i also had pixalation problems on the screen. my biggest problem was just i had to press the screen a bunch of times just to get it to respond. we are paying $500+ for phones so we expect them to work!

On some units, yes. But not all units have these issues. I didn't even mention the lock screen issue when half of the screen disappears or the ring isn't responsive. I wouldn't mind if I only had one of those issues, but all of them combined got to be too much.

I see your point, but I guess what I'm trying to get at is that me personally, I read up a whole lot on every phone I get before I make that jump to buy. I have "a person" that gets the newest gadgets to me alot cheaper than retail and I still read up. So, if i was gonna pay $600 for a new device, please believe I'd have studied on it long and hard first, knowing all of the pros and cons, and weighing them out. Them making the purchase and being satisfied with what I'd bought because I made a solid decision after thoroughly researching it.
BTW, sorry to hear you got a bad one. So far, the only issue I've had with mine has been the fact that sometimes it takes 5 or 6 tries to unlock the screen cuz the icons move instead of the ring, so I can understand your frustration.

Did it have anything about the warranty? New units have one year. Refurbs come with 90 days. So if it was a new unit, it could technically say 1 year. I dont know for sure, just guessing. How's the quality of the replacement unit? Any scratches/blemishes anywhere? Thx.

No, it didn't. Not as far as I can tell.
It's not too bad. Don't see any scratches/dust/or whatever. The speaker isn't as good as my old one and the yellow tint is a bit noticeable, but there's no screen flicker. Other then that it's a pretty good phone.

My 'H' 'T' 'C' fell off....

That's disgusting...
It's been 4 months that i have my HTC and all 3 letters on back cover have fallen off...
First fell the T, then H and today i saw C fell off and i didn't even know so all letters are lost...
It's a European model and not in warranty .... I have no plans to buy another mobile for next year.
what a shame HTC, i bought this phone for better build and this is what i get....?
Here is how it looks

Happened to mine as well, and a lot of other people. I contacted HTC by email through their site and told them the letters and the ring around the camera fell off and was very displeased in their build quality. They gave me a new one.

They are a sticker material on the aluminum which gives them a different color than the rest of the metal.
Just warning you guys... Put a transparent rounded small tape on the letters... You could be next victims...
My set is not in warranty... It was imported from Europe... i am in Asia... Do you think Asian guys will exchange it for me for free?
...or put a light coat of clear varnish (or even clear nail polish) over them.
Asian guys might do it for free, Just ask.
Good luck.

Not a issue for the Sensation XE, There left dull to go with the rest off the phone =)
the picture is not so clear but, I actually think it looks pretty cool like that.
from the pic it makes it look like there is strips of carbon fiber pieces underneath...
anyway, you said no warranty but have you tried contacting HTC anyway?
maybe they'll hook you up regardless since the product is less then a year old.
if not, look at it this way... you now have a one of a kind, limited edition back cover.

Huawei myTouch?

I saw this another website (can't link you to it, against XDA rules, sorry!) and it looked interesting. Give me your opinions, thoughts.
***DISCLAIMER***
In no way do I have any solid information from T-Mobile regarding the new MyTouch line, I am simply posting based on information from tmonews.com, and other sites.
According to sources (and a very convincing video posted by the guys over at engadget), the newest Manufacturer to add the MyTouch to their resume will be Huawei. It is said to be a mid range phone, however testers have stated that potential buyers should not be concerned about the device being mid range, stating that it is very solid, and smooth in testing.
My only experience with Huawei has been very low end entry devices, so I am curious what other's thoughts on this might be. Give me your opinions in the comments!

i just got the new myTouch last week when it was released. I had the one from HTC as that was my replacement to my G2 from Asurion. Have the say the HTC one was a piece of garbage. Worst phone i ever had, thank god it broke a week after i got it and i was forced to get the new myTouch. This device is everything that the G2 was but better. Sure the HTC cam was a really nice piece of hardware, but only the stock OS could run it and that just wasn't worth running.
I'm hoping to root this device tonight!

i just got the new myTouch last week when it was released. I had the one from HTC as that was my replacement to my G2 from Asurion. Have the say the HTC one was a piece of garbage. Worst phone i ever had, thank god it broke a week after i got it and i was forced to get the new myTouch. This device is everything that the G2 was but better. Sure the HTC cam was a really nice piece of hardware, but only the stock OS could run it and that just wasn't worth running.
I'm hoping to root this device tonight!

Huawei did step up their game with the solid piece of hardware. Have you used it yet? it's far superior the the myTouch4g slide from HTC. I'm not wrong on this. time will show that HTC dropped the ball on that device big time. It was a horrid replacement device for the G2. I'm not saying HTC is crap, i'm saying their version of the myTouch was...so in case i don't know what i'm talking about...i'm sure you're standing on the biggest little soapbox around.
peace.
btw...i smoke a lot of nice flowers!!!
and what was so great about the HTC myTouch4g if you think i'm wrong? The 3 roms for it were barely stable. Had to remove my battery more than ever. Stock rom was loaded with so much bloat that the phone was virtually useless. Even when they were removed, you still have to choose Maps every time you wanted to navigate someplace as it wanted to use TMo's subscription app.

Seriously man... stop hating. We have enough going on here. We don't need anyone going on about how some phone was better than the slide or the glacier on the GLACIER forum. Whatever phone you have go to that one and talk about how superior it is.

How sad we are thinking Huawei "stepped their game up". Its still got GB on it troll. The simple fact that Hawaii (or whatever the eff they are called, lol) is behind it automatically makes it a paper weight. Why dont you go "upgrade" to that and I'm sure in no time you'll be trolling here again because there wont be jack for dev. over there. Now kick rocks.

This genius is confusing the mytouch 4G Slide with the myTouch 4G. Not only is he wrong about that, he's posting in the wrong forum.
Two possibilities:
1) Moron.
2) Troll.
Either way, you fell for it. Arguing with either is a waste of time.

my bad
you guys are right, i didn't confuse it, i've got the slide version. my fingers are way to big to use just a touch screen.
you kids need to calm down though, all this troll talk and stuff, is there a bridge that i have to cross? am i looking for a holy grail? geese...
can't even respond with what makes your phone so much better either...all just talk. keep talking kids.

Cracked Housing Question

Hi Everyone,
My girlfriend lost her iphone 4s a few weeks ago. I've found a one x for a great price except the housing is cracked by the charging port. Is this something I should worry about?
Also, coming from an iphone, is the htc one x fairly intuitive? IMO, it's a better phone but my girlfriend is not as tech savvy as I am. Please let me know, thank you for your help.

Give her a few days and messing with it and she'll figure everything out. It's not like things are super complicated to find or do and there are plenty of "getting started with android" articles out there.
Got a picture of the cracked port? If it's between the port and the screen I wouldn't worry about it. If it's on the other side creeping towards the back of the device I would be a bit worried that a few more drops could propagate the crack.
I don't have a picture but I'm going to see it tonight in person. Thanks for your reply, much appreciated.

You have your answer for the crack, but the change from iPhone to HOX is very easy.
I actually came from an iPhone 4 before the HOX.
The only thing i think she'll miss is Siri, its a gimmick anyway and there's voice to text and voice control on this phone.
Best of luck to you guys with the transition.
PS: You could also get the housing replaced if it bothers her.

Make sure to turn it on to make sure it boots. Also you should boot it into the bootloader (reboot the phone and hold vol down until the bootloader shows up). At the top you'll see some words like LOCKED, TAMPERED, RELOCKED, etc etc. If you see TAMPERED that means the phone is rooted. UNLOCKED or RELOCKED means the bootloader has been unlocked or relocked.
If the person has a custom rom installed on it, I would ask him/her to RUU it back to stock before giving it to you. It'll be helpful to your girlfriend to have stock software so she can find the support she needs for it without coming here to the forums being confused about why hers has weird bugs and isn't running stock.
I bet some one took that bad boy apart. That's the only way I have seen that particular area get cracked, is from taking the phone apart

You should bring an active micro sim card with you to make sure it works, been reading a few stories about buying used phones and people finding out later that the imei got blacklisted.
Did anybody else glance at this thread and think someone was asking about a crack house? Lol

Thank for your replies everybody. I picked up the phone and I have to say, I'm using a galaxy s3 right now and the one x's screen is definitely sharper - I much prefer it. More importantly, my girlfriend loves the phone.
I ran into a bit of luck as the random I thought I was meeting up with turned out to be a friend of a friend. He seemed pretty honest about everything and the crack isn't really that bad at all. He gave me the receipt as well, puppy is on warranty till june 2013.
I never thought I'd be jealous of my girlfriends phone but I think I am a little.

Just an FYI your warranty is for the person who bought it only... But nothing you can't fix
