Hey everyone, I'm looking into a Sensation 4G and was wondering if the two phones are interchangeable as far as roms and kernels go.
The only reason I ask is because I am currently running a Samsung Vibrant (Galaxy S 3G) and I know there is a difference between that and the Galaxy S 4G...
I mean, they do have different forums after all.
=)
Thanks!

Yes, every ROM and kernel is interchangeable between the two. The Vibrant and Galaxy S 4G were completely different phones whereas the Sensation and Sensation 4G are not.

In England this month the HTC inspire is coming out, is there any differences between this and the 4G? Is it just the 4G that is gone? Will i be able to use all things on the developers forum without worrying that i will break the device? Thanks in advance guys!

Well *laughs* AT&T doesn't send 4G (HSPA+) through the Inspire 4G or the Atrix 4G. The only thing that you would need to watch out for is that most of the ROMs use AT&T radios so you would need to find a dev that will make radios for your carrier or you could just flash a radio that would work with your carrier and the ROM. That is how it works between the Bell Atrix and the AT&T Atrix.
Why would they release the inspire there? Dont they have the desire HD already? Its the same phone

I thought that because of the looks but the HD has a 1ghz single core vs 1.2 dual aswell as Bluetooth 3.0 vs 2.1 and has gingerbread with sense 3. I'd rather wait a few weeks and get the inspire. I would probably get the desire HD if there is problems with inspire and the inspire 4g roms.

Ummmm flashing a ROM in recovery won't change the radio. I've changed ROMs quite a few times and not once have I received a different radio and I'm NOT using the stock radio.
You sure the device will be called Inspire? From the specs you name and the release (dual core, in a few weeks) I could bet it's the Sensation / Pyramid pending how HTC / your carrier will name it on your side of the pond

Inspire 4g is just a desire HD without a front facing cam. You described the HTC sensation. Unless the euro name for the sensation is the inspire, in which case inspire 4g is different.

I don't know what the Inspire Roms containt but I know that Captivate Roms sometimes will have a different radio. Some of them with HSUPA.

every now and then i see people saying "this rom is compatible with the sensation and sensation 4g" do is there really two different sensations and if there is, could someone put a pic of both of them in the comments cause i dont undersatnd the difference
They are the same thing.
I think it just means that if you have a T-Mobile 4g that you will get the wifi calling and other T-Mobile specific apps. And if the rom detects that you don't then it won't install those apps. But I'm not sure.

International Sensation vs T-Mobile US Sensation 4G. US version has different radio that operates on the "4G" band that T-Mobile uses. Not really any hardware difference other than an additional antenna for TMOUS. Some ROMs may only have support for the international version, others may only support US version. Most ROMs support both though.

All roms work on either phone but tmous stock roms have extra apps which are network specific like wifi calling. If anything it's only a users choice of radio that makes any meaningful difference to compatibility.

Do you guys think the inspire 4g phone will have a upgrade/successor? Its a good phone but it can use upgrades.

The HTC Holiday will be it. May also be known as the Raider.
Oh wow looks pretty good so far

Really only LTE. I think it has a higher resolution screen too, but I'd still get the GS2.
But Samsung phones look and feel like Mattel made them :/

I actually like their builds .
I just got my lady the Infuse4g and it seems like a nice phone, but too light for me. I like my inspire a bit too much.
Looks nice....
Love the Inspire 4g, but am ready for a upgrade without too much change. Make sense?
I've heard that the 4.7" HTC Runnymede (only name I've heard so far) could possibly be making its way to AT&T after being released in Europe for a few months first. Kinda like the same thing they did with the DesireHD before the Inspire came to the U.S.A.
The sensation xl looks awesome but only single core. But thats probably still heaps of cpu grunt

My thoughts exactly
I just want an HTC phone with build quality like the Inspire, HD resolution, dual core and a decent sized battery. I love the specs on the Galaxy Nexus but I will never buy another Samsung product.
I heard a while back about an "Inspire HD". I think it was on Android Central. I've never seen anything else about it, though.
I have the Evo 4g but am looking to upgrade. Preferably a phone that the miui rom can me added on but not a deal breaker. Just looking for a faster,updated phone. Any ideas? Also I'm on sprint.

Samsung Galaxy S III or HTC EVO 4G LTE. Those will be probably have MIUI as they are major flagship devices.

I was wavering between those two phones and I pre-ordered the SIII because it has a replaceable battery. I love to have long life so I will probably get an extended battery for it.
You can get the Galaxy Nexus for Sprint. It is a google phone and basically there is a huge developer base for it. I'm sure there are tons of ROMs that are MIUI themed for it. It is also plenty fast sporting a dual core cpu and 1GB of RAM.
Galaxy Nexus or HTC One X
*Derp*
He's on Sprint. So HTC One X would be the HTC EVO 4G LTE.
P.S. The GSIII will probably have a WAY bigger developer party, one of them being I . The phone has more preorders then the iPhone...
I heard about the one x. Thought it was only for at&t. So the evolution 4g lte is a upgrade from the 3d?

Is the HTC sensation/XE are known to have heating problems? If so, is there anyway to avoid it?? Also I seen that this phone is more active than the Samsung galaxy s2 tmobile. Is it clearly better than the s2? Opinions plz

Not sure about heating problems...you're going to have to research that one. I've had both gs2 and sensation 4g in the past. Both are good in their own ways.
The fact that this phone is over 2 years old and still going strong speaks volumes. Ps...I'm on my 2nd sensation
I think it depends to your ROM
