Slight color shift when tapping screen? - HTC Sensation

I noticed when browsing the XDA forum via web browser, that when I tap the screen and hold, there is ever a slight shift in color tones. When I let go the color returns to normal. (I'm sure its on other sites as well that aren't on a white background). Has anyone else noticed this?
You can test by browsing XDA, going into a post, zooming in, and tap and hold around someone's avatar. Usually the icons around the avatar will become more pronounced when tapping, and look at the color of the background.
This might be a normal thing, but would love for someone else to test it and report back on it via their Sensation.
Last thing I want to do is bring this one back and swap.

I noticed it when I was choosing apps from my home screen.

Do you notice it browsing XDA? But not via the XDA app. Tapping and letting go?

i noticed it on the browser too on xda site, not tired any other site. but i think it could be software, maybe hardware but most likely software, anyone else got anything on this?

I just noticed also on the stock News app. White background, but when scrolling background turns just slightly pink. When done scrolling background goes back to white. Could be the app, but would appreciate if anyone could try that as well!

Yeah I noticed it on the xda app

I would upload a pic,but shootme won't work for obvious reasons. Is there any other app I could use that doesn't require root?

Okay I just downloaded XDA premium and XDA free on both devices and checked many other apps and the browser on both mine and my wifes sensation and here is what I found,I was able to replicate the issue on both phones only in the XDA premium app
And I did NOT find this to be an issue and could NOT replicate it in any app nor the browser and also not in the XDA free app.Cheers

You could use the android sdk but I don't know how to use it.

Thanks for sharing.
I hate having to exchange these damn phones 3,4,5 Times to get an acceptable one.

Mine doesn't. Maybe you get HTC to have a look at it, you might have a faulty device.
I've had this rattle with vibrate on all the HTC phones I had (Hero and Desire).. annoying especially when typing with vibrate feedback. (Have to add though that with the option to make vibration shorter it got a little better) .. On the other hand, tried iPhone4 and NexusS and the vibrate felt really "tight" and much smoother.

Power button to hang up?

On my last two phones there was an option in the accessibility settings to hang up using the power button. But I haven't seen that option in the stock or a custom ROM yet. Is there an app for that or am I missing something? Sorry if this is in the wrong spot.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
I'd like to know if there is a solution for this as well. I've almost been caught in some strange situations where I pressed the power button to hang up but obviously on the Sensation the call keeps going.
What phone does that?
Cm7 has this as default and can not be changed from my understanding. I personally do not like this option because it forces the screen to stay on and eat battery. For this reason I switched back to sense adhd.

Didn't remember that on my n1
Its a stock android option. Would really like it to be ported somehow to sense also. I'm not of cm so I won't be flashing it just for that feature but if you all like vanilla android then maybe that's your answer.

any solution for this?
Haven't seen any in any sense roms. Just the aosp/cm7 roms. It would be awesome if someone could add it as a tweak or addon.

NS4G Back button

OK so when I open an app and click the back button to exit out it sticks. It doesn't let me do anything for about 30 seconds unless I lock it and unlock it. It did this with stock kernel pre-root and post-root didn't do it very often, with netarchy it did it more frequently and with matrix it does it every app I open. Can anybody shed some light on this please!

I have. Ive tried miui, oxygen, cm7 and nightlies, kings rom, deck, stock odexed and deodexed I've tried so many and they all have the same issue. Trust me as soon as I find a new rom I flash it to review it for my blog

im having the SAME issue and its getting annoying. i should have just kept my original NXS but instead my techs ordered me a new one because she ripped my esn sticker off the back. now my replacement has this ****ing issue and its annoying! its almost as if the phone thinks the button is being pressed (back light on only the back button goes off...phone is not functional until it comes back, which can be any given time, sometime the button just tweaks out and flashes on and off for a given time) ugh...wtf is going on

I found that flashing matrix kernel minimizes the issue.

Would you take back a phone for this reason

I just got my replacement sensation 4g and it is like 2 little dots of light that like idk seep through the screen. Its really not on the screen thqt you touch its on the bottom left corner next to the home button. It is kind of annoying when I take my case off and see them but maybe I will get used to it idk. Would you take yours back for this? I also am having my htc sense keep crashing and my phone randomly reboot itself. On T-Mobile chat they say it is an app causing this and not the phone because they fixed that problem with the last update and want me to delete some apps off my phone to see which app is causing it. Anybody else having those issues?

Bottom line, if you aren't happy and able to exchange it, then yes I would.

I tried and I couldn't see it. I think you can only see it in the dark when its light I couldn't even see it (this is the first day I used my phone without a case with the case on I couldn't see it). But its still kind of annoying. Maybe I'm just being anal.

Any way to turn off Capacitive light on the HTC Sensation?

Hey guys, I want to turn off Capacitive light for my Sensation. It drains battery, and I think it makes the CPU hotter or it runs hot itself. Just a guess. Any ideas?
Thanks.

I see that you have already reposted this question in the Sensation forum, so please click on the little report triangle in the first post here and request that a mod close this thread, then click on the dropdown box and choose Thread/Post maintenance, then submit. Thank you.
I would also suggest that you read these two threads:

A great starting point for all new Sensation owners
Sorry man. I'm new to the forums I think I know how this works now. I've been using XDA for a while and I decided to sign up. It's just that the app on android is painfully confusing and hard to use.

No problem, I understand. You can't report using the app, only through the browser, so I will request it for you.
Thanks, you're the best!
