My wife has a My Touch 4G Slide, and I have a Sensation. I was taking a look at our batteries today, and both our our OEM batteries have the exact same model number, and look and feel exactly the same...with one exception that I could find: the metal contacts on the bottom of the battery are on the opposite side of each battery, relative to the "HTC" logo on the "front" of the battery. If you flip one battery over, so the "small print" is facing up, and the align it with the other battery, I have a hard time telling the difference.
Before I place one of these batteries in the opposite phone and cause the polar ice caps to melt down, can anybody confirm that I can swap these batteries between the phones with no issues?
I'll keep scouring the XDA forums and the rest of the interweb thingies, but I haven't found an answer yet.
Thanks.
I did this going from my old incredible to a g2. I just flipped the battery around, cut the corners down and plugged it in. Worked just fine.

I'm scared that my hair will fall out, or tsunamis will hit several major cities around the world! Well, maybe not THAT scared.
Make sure the polarities are going the right way.
HTC Sensation, HTC Evo 3D, and HTC MyTouch 4G Slide stock batteries are all interchangeable. The similar-sized extended batteries (the ones that don't require a new back cover) also work too, to my knowledge.
Well the Evo 3D and Sensation batteries are swapable so guess that would me the same for the Sensation and myTouch. I have a sensation and my wife has the MT4G... why would you want to swap?
Edit--- nevermind just realized you said MT4G Slide...
I've switched the 2 batterys with no problems

Would me popping in the HD2 Official Extended Battery brick the AT&T HTC Inspire 4G?
Gonna assume the two battery sizes are the same. Haven't received my Inspire 4G yet. Still in the mail.
I believe when some contacted HTC, they stated that the Inspire/Desire HD battery is not compatible with any other current HTC device.
This is in the wrong section... This should be in accessories...
If you could some how get the battery to fit, I guess it would temporarily brick it seeing as the Inspire's battery has contacts on the side whereas the HD2 battery does not.
Remember, the Inspire has an aluminium unibody design and no genuine extended battery will work with it.

Not likely. If the HD2 extended battery is thicker than the Inspire battery, it wouldn't fit the slot of the Inspire. The battery of the Inspire slides into the body of the Inspire much like an SD card slides in. And the shape of the slot is the size of the OEM battery and no larger.
i have and hd2 (european version) that is no longer working (screen doesnt respoond to touch) and was wondering if anyone has trying putting the original htc hd2 batterry ( not extended battert) in their inspire 4g. due to the fact that i dont what to break my phone, i have not turned it on, but it does fit, really snugly. where the original htc inspire battery just slides out with no effort, the hd2 battery needs to be pulled out to be removed
Hi all,
I am relatively new to these forums, and currently own a desire hd, but i have been offered an upgrade to the Sensation.
Now i may bite there hands off at this chance BUT they are after a £100 security deposit, ( Orange uk btw ) so i cant order untill thursday morning.
What are the pro's and cons's if any about this phone?
Thanks.
***Gawsh i cant spell im that excited lmao!!, Thread title wording is wrong it should be Getting, Not Geeting Rofl****
Now we have S-OFF and the like it's definitely worth getting - OK you'll have all the Orange crap pre-installed but that's easily remedied. Just download the RUU for warranty purposes and off you go!

Hmm ok, Need to find a buyer for my htc desire hd now. ;0)
came from the inspire (desire hd). I wouldnt' have switched, if i didn't make a good deal trading the inspire for notphone, then selling that pos to get the sensation. It is a great phone, but not sure if i'd pay $150-200 extra to get it.
Well I came from a HTC HD2 and I have to say i am very pleased with my Sensation. The speed that the device works with is great and i am still totally stock. The HTC Sense 3.0 does not cause problems with major lag like Sense has been know to do. The 4G speeds are awesome, well when I am in a 4G area at least. Matter of fact the speed I get with a 4G signal is better than my home WiFi speeds.
I do recommend you give the, "[LINK TO FIX][UPD 29AUG]Touchscreen Not Responsive" thread a good read, and the, "[FIX] Touchscreen issues (related to screen's grounding)" thread a good read. Both of these threads are on the known touch screen issue of the Sensation that users are having. I myself had the issue, and had it very bad to I must say. But thanks to both of the linked threads I was able to solve my issue and relieve the great frustration it brought me.
All in all though the Sensation has been a great device so far. My wife and I both have one, although she never has experienced the touch screen issue like me. We both enjoy or phones very much. Hope this gives you some insight.
I would personally say don't get one.. its got issues with over heating. the power button wears out rather quickly.. dust under the screen. Signal issues with the cellular and wifi ariels being in the back cover how you hold the device effects strength.
I would suggest going for what ever the upgrade the sensation with (hopefully they will learn by the mistakes)
I woke up to my first phone smelling burnt to never turn on again.. the heat from the cpu damaged one of the dual flex cables that run down from the pcb at the top of the handset to the pcb that holds the cpu and other components.
The replacement phones's power button wore out but didnt have the issue with loads of heat when using a custom undervolted kernel and with scalling enabled.
the replacment came back from repair and this time they didnt even change the power board PCB all they done was change the speaker on it so its on its way back to have the full PCB replaced (and probably with the exact same revision board that will eventually fail again)
I have never had so many issues with one sodding phone... s-off is the only thing that makes this phone any good.. IMHO
Ive been having problems with my back button for a while now and with some experiences on my previous phones,i tried dismantling it with the help of Youtube.i never had problems doing this kind of stuff before but this time i messed up badly! It doest turn on anymore,i accidently cut the strip on the on/off button that connects to wherever its getting power.now i just have a big good looking paper weight.
My back button just stock in the down position yesterday. I have a replacement on its way from Tmobile. Hoping I don't get a bad screen.
Bummer you broke your phone.

I know,i called tmo for my replacement but reported it loss coz i already broke it.lucky i have insurance but im getting charged $130 for a new one.
sux that you broke it and have to get a new one... but upside since you reported it lost you have a second/backup battery and battery cover (incase you decide to try some cover mod/design and a spare screen and digitizer.

Since you live in LA, you shouldn't have a problem getting rid of it on craigslist. Sell it for at least $130 and consider it a free upgrade One time, I bought a bricked HD2 for $150, spent a half hour diagnosing the problem and fixing it, then flipped for $275. Easy money
So if I report my (not broken) mt4g stolen, I can get a sensation for $150!? Hmm....doesn't matter since im looking at the g-nexus.

I just did this EXACT same thing over the weekend.
My MT4G had dust caked into the front camera. I figured "No biggie. It' probably missing a seal. I'll crack it open, clean out the dust, and tack a tiny o ring in there to keep the dust out."
I followed the YouTube guide. I was SUPER careful because I saw how delicate everything was.
Putting a o ring on the camera was ridiculously easy. But when putting the phone back together I noticed that there was a wire dangling loose next to the power button. I was like "Ooooooohhhhhhh fudge." Only I didn't say fudge.
On the plus side, once the phone was back together it'll keep dust out of that camera until doomsday! That part worked. It just won't turn on....
Anyway I took the phone back to the store where I just bought it in August and said "This doesn't turn on."
The guy at T Mobile store looked at it, fiddled with it a bit, gave up and processed me for an even exchange at no cost. The new one is on it's way and should be delivered to my house tomorrow. They didn't even charge me for shipping. Couldn't have been easier. The customer service was absolutely top notch.
And I don't even have the insurance.
The guy at the store didn't even care that the little VOID stick was gone from the one screw under the batter cover. He even looked for it specifically.
Lol wow

Hi all,
I've just got my sensation and love it but when I press the screen a bit harder then usual it makes a squeaking noise. It feels very cheap especially for a high end new phone, do others have this experience or is it just my phone?
Jason.
My phone does this now too. But only because I've pulled the backing off so many times. Due to hanging and when I first started to get to the bootloader. Which I no longer have to due because of the ROM.

Nice to know I am not the only one! I thought mine was because I have the 1900mah Anker battery which is a bit wider..
I get this also, and it also happened after i took the back off multiple times. This problem seems to come and go though, and is fixed when i put on my tpu case, probably because it squeezes the body to the phone better.
I feel like the left bottom corner of my sensation can be pushed down as if it wasn't securely fitted.
My senny started to get all the issue problem like others get. Dust below screen, power button issue & soon i believe the squeaking noise!!

hmm its a pity I'm not the only one, do you think this is an issue that will be addressed by htc when I confront them with it. I to have a loads of dust under the casing within a day, use pressured air to blast it out.
Before my sensation I owned a legend which seemed to be of better building quality
Scouring the internet like crazy, got a HTC Desire HD that I really want to use Qi charging for. I also have an SGS3, so i wanted to kill two birds with one
Any ideas? I'm really running out of ideas here. I was thinking maybe I could use some copper wire or something from a regular one.
I saw a back (entire back above the sim cover at the bottom), aka fits around the cam and flash, for htc thunderbolt for qi, but i'm guessing that wouldn't fit this would it?
