It's not really a sensor.. it's another secret camera so big brother can keep his eye on you

Red light? U mean the notification LED? The accelerometer sensor is deep inside the phone...

Lol, I really had no idea where the accelerometer is, but the red light im talking about is on the left of the sensation below the light sensor.

ive noticed this too. I bought the phone off a guy on craigslist and a day later its got dust in the glass and the red ir light and wont boot into bootloader without adb or a third party app... maybe the light indicates a refurbished device? or an improper shutdown?

That's the proximity sensor. It uses infrared just like the MT4G's trackpad.

I now know what its for and how it becomes visible
It only happens when you're on a call with the phone on speaker.

Sensation camera?

Is there a way to tell what the aperature and sensor type of the camera is? I'm curious to see if it is the same camera sensor that is being used in the upcoming mytouch 4g slide.
No, unless its rooted.. LMAO.. jk

Led colours?

Hello, I did search but couldn't find any info, am I right in thinking the sensation only has two colours for the notification led (the one by the earpiece) green and orange?

Yes
Edit: But you can get orange-yellowish color if you blink them at the same time

Hmm that's a shame, I'm used to having more choice then that, not a major thing but I guess I thought that a phone with this kind of spec would have more of a range

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.

Its not on the touch part of the screen. Its on the outer black rim to the edge next to the home button.

Try this: in a (very) well lit room, place the phone in front of a mirror and take a pic with the front cam...

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.

Autobacklight changes constantly

I find it very annoying that backlight changes constantly, even in the same room, with the same lightning conditions. If I move my hand a bit it changes. I am using Viper and there are tweaks to change backlight, but there's no way to make it work better. I don't know if this is just the way this phone is made.
Also the position of the sensor is very stupid, you can cover it accidentally.
I am never able to notice backlight changes in my iPhone.
Is there any way to make it more gradual,like iPhone?
P.S.Pls don't tell me to set it to manual

May sound stupid but it may be a scratch over the sensor cover or some dust below the cover.

I have tried cleaning the sensor, but problem persists. It depends on the angle I'm holding the phone

If its the angle I think it may be a scratch.. or a dent which causes the cover to cast partial shadow.
Just to confirm, you can try it without the back cover. See if its still giving you trouble.

Well I removed the back cover, but it's the same. Maybe I'm asking too much from my phone. I compare it to my iPhone 4, I'm never able to spot the backlight change with it, don't know how they made it. I just wish it could be a little less noticeable that's all

Bright spot?

In the lower middle of my screen in a small area my screen is brighter than it usually is. It can only be seen on light backgrounds. Hardware issue?
