[Q] SenseRom: Music & WiFi - HTC Desire S

Ok guys, im going away for a 3 days trip for some business and i really need to have a long life battery ROM on my phone.
Right this moment im using MIUI 1.10.21 but i cant trust it for this job, as its wifi is not that strong and i really dont know why.
Anyway i would like to know which Sense Rom [3.0 or 3.5] would do better with the battery life in heavy[not much tho] usage with a lot of wifi and music ahead.. edit: Beats By Dr. Dre IS a MUST for me ;p
Any ideas.? I really love Sense 3.0 Roms and i would stick to VU but as it seems 3.5 is everywhere and also Runnymede came to the scene

Hello,
Was testing many ROMs the past weeks. Endymion / Hyperion seem both very good and are sense 3.5 / 3.0. You should check them out.
Hope I could help

RCMix 3DS had very good battery life and beats audio. Very few bugs on it to. Just watch out for the volume buttons which can wake the phone up.

Hyperion!!
Based on latest OTA, awesome battery life, and Beats WiFi works well.
Rock stable ROM too.

Extra battery? I've seen some real cheap ones on Amazon, which I found after looking at a thread in the accessories forum.

General rule of thumb with batteries: you get what you pay for!
Cheap ones may seem a much better idea, but rarely live up to quoted capacity, and don't last as long before needing retirement.

I Recommend downloading SenseMOD from ROM Manager and then adding the Beats Audio extension

Go for Hyperion. Best battery life any sense 3 rom has...

Anker batteries are dirt cheap, and the have a higher capacity ..
They also have excellent reviews from the Sensation people!
I'm considering one..

About to go in & place an order - my Anker seem to be draining a bit too much lately, plus the charger that came with the batteries broke - one of the connectors that charge the battery is mysteriously missing.......
Interesting I'll probably pick some off Ebay as they only come in a pack of two. Does checking I assume this will work with the Sensation XE as their all the same phone...
So did you guys end up trying the batteries? Did you like them? Because I'm not too happy with my anker

Been hearing these cause problems. I would recommend you just have two original battery and replace once one drains.
It would be nice if someone could report back on this?
This is great.
But i wonder if this battery is compatible with Sense 4.0 roms...?

any updates about this battery?
I would recommend a HTC evo 3d battery 1730mah vs sensations at 1520mah . I bought one a few weeks ago and have been very happy with it. And I know were it came from so I don't have to worry about it leaking or frying out my sensation. It won't last you three days between charges but should be good for full day.

How long have you used your Anker - what is the lifespan ? is it daily usage? stock ROM, overclocked? full display brightness?
thanks for the feedback.
I agree, ROMs have no issue with whatever battery you use on your phone.

I have used Anker for the past 3 months. Lifespan I don't know as of now but so far so good. I use it daily, I don't switch batteries. I'm running Virtuous Inquisition rom (great rom in my opinion), overclocked to 1.5 (comes with the rom), auto brightness. Anker isn't horrible! It last me an entire day with moderate usage. 7am- 9:30pm. Which is good. I'm just a hog and prefer longer lasting batteries such as this AceSoft battery. So I guess I'm just asking for too much. But definitely get Anker over stock battery. I'm probably going to buy AceSoft once when I get my paycheck next week and give it a shot since no one else is replying back with results.

Is the Sensation still worth?

I was wondering if the Sensation is still worth buying? Browsing through this forum I found many people having some problem or the other..is it really a bug magnet or what?

This is the longest I've ever owned a phone lol. If I can get a good deal I might jump to the One S in a few months for the camera and the body but i really love my Sensation
Awesome device...Get it before it's too late
And what about the problems
Sent from my HTC One V using XDA
I've had my Sensation since this past August and after many hours spent tinkering, trying out custom ROMs, the only problem I've ever had is that I don't see an icon when I get voicemails. I saw the notifications initially but after unlocking it at the end of that August I haven't seen the icon again.
If something happened to mine, I would consider another model but I'd probably try and scope out a good deal on another Sensation 4G. It's a great phone!
considering the low price it goes for on the used market its completely worth it!!!
Does it beat the EVO 3d?
Sent from my HTC One V using XDA
They're almost the same phones - Evo3D has dual cameras, 3D display and larger battery (can be bought for the Sensation as well) and 1 GB RAM (instead of 768).
Take your pick.
It's very worth, due to the lower price. I like my sensation
It's a good phone, you can get them quite cheap off eBay, mine cost very little (comparatively speaking).
Great phone, still loads of support from devs
I haven't experiences any problem like dust under the screen or the like. Everything works great, and sense4 functions well.
If you want a used and cheap phone get the sensation. But i advise you, if you're going to spend big then look for other phones like the Galaxy Nexus or wait for the GS3.

What problems? Before to buy Sensation I watched a lot of videos on Youtube, read a lot of fourms etc - haven't find any problems, and while using also there's no problems. And mine is rooted and Sense 4 is just great, no need for One S.
Sensation is way to go
so i just got myself a Sensation XE, exchanged my One V since that was a good performer yet still had many defects, and woahhhh i'm absolutely LOVING this XE!
Thnx to everybody for their replies! i'm completely happy with my choice and jus can't stop lookin at the big boy..
Yep. I thought it was a bugfest here too but since the price started to get really cheap last month I bought one and surprisingly it was well worth it. Very fast and responsive on ICS (specially when on Custom rom). Development is superb too. Only issue I have is the poor battery life but these can be solve by buying an aftermarket battery (something like anker or chichitec w/c has 1900 mah).
I bought mine for $250 last month

New HTC Sensation Battery

I've had my HTC Sensation XE for a while now and I'm looking to buy a new battery for it as the stock one isn't exactly great. I was just wondering whether I should get an Anker 1900mAh battery or a Saner 1900mAh battery. I've heard they're both good but just wanted to know if there was any big stand out points between the two.

Well I ran my phone down today and got 3 hours 7 minutes with max brightness, screen on the entire time, phone actively being used the entire time. Didnt take a screenshot but those were the exact numbers.
I'm recommending Anker, it's much better than stock, but there is one thing... This batter does not have chip needed to secure phone from overheating

I've used both as my anker fried out but that's was just bad luck I guess, both the banker and saner seem to have identical battery life, I can't really tell the difference
"use the thanks button every time you get an answer, even if its one you don't like! you ungrateful **stard"- Xda 'you are a noob video'
One thing tho whit those batteries no sensors to tell real temp of battery :/ but if you want a reallly good one but expansive : Mugen.

Just one last thing, the Saner says "The battery has an integrated microchip, Over-charge/discharge protection, over-current protection" whereas on the Anker it says "Built-in protection circuit to assure safety under all circumstances."
Is there any difference between the two of them?
I currently use my 1900 Anker battery and the performance has been amazing. I am currently running shnizlon's sense 4 rom and most of the times I can easily get through a day to a day and a half with moderate use. I normally have the screen set to it's lowest brightness level and 2g on instead of 3g/4g. I noticed this helps battery performance greatly. I highly recommend it.

what do you mean? battery will overheat and how?
+1 for Anker. Bought my Sensation from marketplace and have been using the Anker in it since day one. No problems with overheating and battery life is excellent. Gets me through an entire day no problem.
If you are concerned about the temp sensors, there are HTC batteries for other devices that will fit. I believe the EVO 3D battery works and is in the range of 1700mah. Take a look at this thread for a real good discussion:

Well music/videos/games drains battery no matter what.
Anker suppose to have better quality and ~25% more capacity then the stock battery.

Anker battery boosted my battery life by about 20-25%, and I also agree that VI gives awesome battery life
Just carry a lead with you, i have one about 10cm in length and it goes in my pocket wherever i go. There's a high chance (probably 80%) that i will be near a USB plug! all 3 jobs have computers nearby, my car has USB and every house i visit has a USB port somewhere.At least that way you can play 3d games for more than 3/4 of an hour.
Think about it? Is there a lot of places you visit that don't have USB?
I'm happy if my battery lasts from 9 to 5 without a charge!

As its mentioned many times in battery topics, all these batteries above 2000mah are fake.
They are measured and some of them even give less mah then original HTC 1250mah!!
Think about this yourself. 1900mah real size batteries are much bigger than original batteries, that's why they need the back cover mod.
A battery of 2450mah should be even bigger!

They would give you best performance for few days or month. After that worst then your original battery.
Mugen are good but they are expensive.
Better go for EMERGENCY PORTABLE CHARGER
Like this --> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1900mAh-E...751?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4aaf273b27
If possible then go for branded company.
