Do you change HTC Sensation hardware with respect to HTC Sensation XE or two mobiles have the same hardware?
Sorry for my bad english
Same hardware, higher clock for the CPU (1.5ghz vs 1.2 on regular Sensation), 4GB internal memory (vs 1GB on regular Sensation), slightly bigger battery (1730mAh) and Beats mod on the music player...
thanks, the roms of the Sensation XE can apply to my Sensation?
Dunno, XE hasn't been released yet, just announced. We'll see
Edit :
Here's some development on the matter : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261911&page=2
Both have 4GB internal storage, you just can use about 1.3GB.
Due to the fact I am happy with my Sensation and there are no real improvements (beside the cpu-clock), I wont change.
Maybe I will buy the XE cover (I like the design) or the bigger battery.
The beatsmod should be software, too - so we can wait for a custom rom.
According to official htc sensation xe page, hardware are exactly the same except for the bigger battery, red highlights back-cover and beats earphones. Oh, and faster rom.

Edit: I also see red capacitive buttons
Is this why HTC under-clocked the original Sensation, so they could release a 1.5 GHz version and say "look we made a new phone?"

They didn't even increase Ram... LAME!

I think it was because of the battery. Now when the new one has a bigger battery, they can use normal speed

Not sure if I buy that it was the battery.
1) HTC could have included a bigger battery with the original Sensation.
2) 1.5 GHz doesn't actually use that much more juice since the processor only runs at that speed under high load.

settings say 1.5GHz, but actual speed is still 1.2.
I would say both phones are the same ... but the XE-edition has a bigger battery-capacity + improved HTCMusik.apk ... oh and the phone color is red ...
You can compare it to samsung galaxy s gorgio armani .. it has just a special look
true...wish it was 1.5ghz!
get a red marker pen, buy the ear-in headphones, overclock your cpu and there you are.......sensation xe

Hardware info is just a txt file. It just shows the specs from that phone. Because that updated sensation runs at 1.5ghz they put that in the specs list.

I'm aware that the phones have the same hardware, just want to know that if I buy a stock sensation, will I be able to use beats and stuff through a ROM, just losing the charming red capacitive keys ? Thanx a lot!
If you flash an XE-based ROM, yes
Have a look at Android Revolution HD 3.6.8
It converts your sensation into XE.
There are a lot of ROMs that based on XE with fully beats audio.

Just last night at geekaphone.com I was reading that the XE doesn't have assisted GPS, I wasn't awared that this was hardware, other than this even though battery is bigger and internal memory is a little more and beats, I don't see the point of getting it.

Simple question, all roms for the HTC Sensation can be flashed on the HTC Sensation XE ? (Because the hardware differs quite a lot)
Thx in advance!
edit: seems the hardware differs less than I claimed..
Simple answer yes

As far as I know the hardware doesn't differ much at all. The outer case is different but they have the same exact inside components. The "regular" sensation is just software underclocked vs the XE's 1.5 clock rate.
Hi everybody. I owned a HTC sensation some months ago. I mean that phone was great! Great size, performance, etc. The problem was The radio signal. I live in an area where the signal is not that good. I had a lot of problems.
My question is if the XE has the same problems. I really love the phone. If there weren't any problems with the radio... the problem I read are the contacts of the aerial which is part of the back cover of the phone in the original sensation. Does the XE have that problem too?
Thanks in advance!

I have to say, YES.
The difference between sensation and the xe are : xe got beats audio, overclocked cpu to 1.5ghz, and larger battery 1730 mah. The others are just the same with the sensation, even the signal issue.

Hello,
I've tried to google it but maybe didn't type the right words because I can't find the answer.
I know that Sensation XE have overclocked CPU, beats and a higher capacity battery.
But those things are adjustable, I can install Mike's ROM on regular sensation and attach a better battery.
My question is, are those all the differences? Is Beats only a software or it's a chip inside the motherboard?
Thank you!
