[Q] What sensation !!! ??? - HTC Sensation

After upgrading via "RUU_Pyramid_LE_HTC_Europe_1.72.401.1_Radio_10.58.9 035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_214840_signed" my model number result as HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e. On hardware information, tab i'm seeing Processor 1.5 GHz dualcore. Is anyone else having the same situation???

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.

Hardware sensation and sensation xe

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

The new RUU works with the normal sensation?i was afraid to brick my phone, so i didnt try it i guess revolutionary still works, because its the same bootloader or am i wrong? i dont want to lock myself out
It's the same phone but they dipped the metal bits in red.
what about the speaker? still dre ? .. sorry still the same as in normal Sensation?

[Q] Sensation vs XE

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.

sensation xe extreemly slow ?

I have just got my new xe and its nice however it is extreemly slow .. i was under the impression that the phone was a dual core 1.5ghz
i have run quadrant and only get 1254 max .. i am showing 1.09gb available memory so memory isnt an issue as i havent loaded anything yet
quadrant runs through really slowly and takes around 3 mins to complete .. ive had the note and it flies through really quickly .. so im wondering is there a hardware fault with the xe ?
can anyone help please i can return back to amazon if there is a fault ,,
surely quadrant 1259 is really slow for a phone like this
thans
I have around 2200, with normal sensation.

it crawls through quadrant tests
You shouldn't trust benchmarks... Yesterday i got 3659 with my sensation and today I can't reach 3000

What could be causing these problems?

A few days ago I started getting random reboots and a bit more lag than usually. I thought maybe it was because of UV (-87.5) so I changed it to -50, but it didn't help. The reboots happen two-three times a day usually a second after turning the screen on. Also the lag is getting a bit annoying, it is noticible even when scrolling through the screens. It was better a while ago.
What could be causing such a problem? I am running android 4.0.3 rooted and unlocked S-OFF Elegancia Rom Sense 3.6. more info in attachments.
Also, I recently installed Dualcore Badass Tweaks By Iba21 CPU 384~1566 badass gov an Bricked kernel was installed earlier with 192 mghz min 1566 mhz max, max scrennoff 486, could this mean something?
Any help appreciated.
Have you tried changing your kernel yet? Try changing your kernel and see if the problem persists. Also check battery make sure it has no "wiggle" to it in the housing. If it does wiggle, stabilize it with a piece of paper. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

No, I didn't try changing the kernel yet. Will try it right away. The battery holds firmly, no wiggle whatsoever. Could this have to do anything with the governor changing when going to screen on?

thats fine ..the ram its showing is usable ram thats all
and yes ..after soff if you have unlocked hboot then the number shows 1.27.1111(juopunutbear hboot) and its not a problem
So I changed the kernel from bricked to faux123 192~1.51 cpu. Everything looked ok, but yesterday I got 2 reboots, both when taking a photo, what else could be a problem?
Have you checked to see if battery is loose ? If it has some wiggle this could be causing the reboots. If you find a wiggle put a small wedge of paper to stabilize the battery. Also make sure you're not under or over volted right now, this could be the cause too. For right now while your figuring this out don't under or over volt and see what happens. Try those two suggestions and hopefully the issue will resolve.

No, the battery seems ok. My cpu is currently undervolted by 50 mv,.but it was working fine even on -87.5. Will delete uv and report back.

HTC sensation xe radio sinal issues?

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!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
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.
