Hello,
I am new to the sensation forum. Originally from the Evo forum, thens switched to T-mobile and went to the G2x forum. Missed my evo so I got a sensation which is the same form factor. So far loving the phone. Much faster than evo. Better camera too.
welcome! hope that you enjoy the forums
Hello and welcome
Welcome aboard and Happy Flashing!
I am also new to this forum coming from Samsung Vibrant. I just received a Sensation and I am amazed how many different types of Roms are available for flashing.

You're gonna have fun trying out all the different ROMs. Luckily for you, most of the devs have relatively stable versions now, and CM7 has been released in alpha status for a while.
We have some weird people in here, don't let that bother you too much
Also new to this forum, just sold my mytouch 4g and bought this baby. Just got done with S-off, Super cid, and all that jazz (which was relatively easy).. I'm a CRACKFLASHER!! Haha.. anybody can recommend a stable Rom?

First of all, you are all awesome! This forum is the reason I owned HTC Desire and the Sensation know-how thank you.
I got the Indian version. This one and t mobile are the only 2 you can buy outside the carriers here in Israel.
S-off, root and flashed Tom like it was nothing (it's the first time I even try anything like that) thanks to your guides.
Tried a few roms. I like it to be as close to stock as possible. I'm not an oc fan.
So far the best I found is leedroid. I didn't try anything with 2.3.4
Keep up the good work!

Welcome to XDA! Glad you like your Sensation!
Glad you like you Sensation, its an amazing phone i'm really happy with mine, just rooted it and have the LeeDroid ROM on it at the moment.
thx
Hi All Friends!
I learned a lot from this forum to make my HTC Sensation suitable for me.
Many thanks for every productive mate!
Tom
If you try the new 2.3.4 based roms you will be even more surprised that how fast this phone is. I am currently on Leedroid 2.0 and It looks like there is hardware acceleration on the new update, smooth like butter. Couldn't be happier!

Just started using Revolution and figuring out everything, but primary waiting for CM7 <3
Congratz on the Sensation and welcome to XDA! Happy Flashing!!
Just got the sensation to replace my LG G2x and first thing on the list of things to do is ROOT! I plan on following the stickie on this forum to do it so wish me luck! I switched from Verizon using a thunderbolt so I feel right back at home with this phone!

welcome to the sensation "thing" lol. Atleast there are more people getting the sensation even though there are new phones coming out.
Welcome...i'm also new in here...
Good choice with htc sensation,you won't regret...belive me...cheers

yeah its a lot lighter than the Thunderbolt but its the same phone! I just love it! I haven't rooted yet and am freaking out. I always feel so overwhelmed when i look at the whole step by step process because i look at the whole picture instead of the little steps....AHHHHH
Welcome aboard, enjoy your great new device, and happy flashing!
Welcome dude!! Before u purchase senny, did u do all the research first and read xda? If yes, then good for you. If not, then dont feel regret later!! and please dont compare it to SGS2..thanks

Consider MIUI for Sensation! It's pretty awesome!!

I also came to the Senny from the G2x. It's a much better phone. Rooting is really not hard at all.

Keep an eye on coredroid. And careful flashing

Gotta ask - Why do you need to root? Have you even tried to use the phone as it is?
I always root my phones....just something I have always done.

One reason for root : Adfree

Great phone! Until the GN is released which will replace my Sensation. Happy flashing!!!!

One more reason for root: it's YOUR phone. Welcome back home.
I run Android Revolution HD v 4.1.x
Sense 3.5 interface - If for no other reason, Root so you get Sense 3.5.
Cant get sense 3.5 on Sensation without Root (yet).
In my opinion, 3.5 is a big step up from v3.
Keep on rooting boys !!
Just got myself a sensation as well. Coming from a line of samsungs, most recently the sgs4g. Man there are so many options with this phone as compared to the sgs4g.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
many reasons for rooting: speed and awaken 3D and 2D gaming power!!
was really upset with stock sensation XE.
But ARHD ROM (Cool), Amaze Cam Mod, Bricked kernel 1.5r1 beta 1(fixed 3D & 2D issues and no freeze cam after applying Camfix) and ARHD Radio....
It's A Superior Master Piece!!!!
I don't mind stock I just loved my titanium back up and can't have it unless I'm rooted. Still haven't done it yet....still overwhelmed lol
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using Tapatalk
lets just say, all the fun stuff happens when its rooted
I love amaze cam. And also titanium backup and Mybackup are reasons to root. i couldnt imagine a phone without my backups
...Just wanted to say HI!
My name is Joshua, I have been using a MyTouch 4G Slide for the past month or so after coming from an HTC G2, can't say I have had the best experience with the Mytouch (headphone jack died christmas day!) and now I have moved on to the HTC Sensation (arriving sometime today! YESSSSS!) The main thing I am excited about it the 4.3-inch qHD display... The MyTouch was only 3.7 with wvga. Anyway, ever since the G2 I have been learning everything that I can about android development and have even tried my hand at a few custom roms. I'm looking forward to integrating into the Sensation forums and I hope that one day soon I will be pumping out roms for this awesome phone.
Looking forward to meeting the community!
Hello and welcome to the forums! Feel free to PM me with any questions you may have (I'm not an expert) or just post on the Sensation Question forum.

I am new to the Sensation. I came from the mt4g which had a very successful and long life with development.
Anyway I know sensation had a huge following and lots of devs. How long do you suspect the Dev support to flourish on this phone?
Also, what is a good, solid ROM to start with?

Hi,
As long as HTC keep delivering,Devs will keep Devving...
ARHD is a great place to start.
Not that I am biased or anything.
Hey everyone tomorrow morning I'm getting my sensation and can't be more excited.
Just wanted to say tomorrow I will be rooting my phone asap
Any suggestions on some good starter Roms?
This forum is 100 times larger and more active then the mytouch 4g forums

awesome bro i remember seeing you in those forums I too switched
as for roms depends whether you want sense or not
MIUI is perfect AT this moment. based on the HTC ICS Base so you get both the camera and everything else working.
Official HTC Rom like ARHD, coredroid etc - Stable and fast rom with Sense 3.6(personally dislike Sense but you can install a mod to make it just like stock android, look under themes and apps)
CM9 - video camera doesnt work so well, bluetooth no go,
sense 4 - camera not so much with no autofocus, but almost good enough
I suggest - ICS stock rom with HTC base. like hypernonsense

Nice to see some familiar names and I'm hoping to try sense 4.0 the Mt4g has a lite version 4.0a I think but I want the whole package
Also man as we came from the same forum how hard was it to root this phone. I remember the mt4g being so easy

This one is easier.
Came from mt4g too.

I really like the ARHD ROM. It works great on my Sensation 4G. I am using SebastianFM kernel and ARHD 6.5.4 great battery life and good stability.
Good luck!
Can't you wait till the end of the month and get One S super amorled display

I came from mt4g and found the sensation easier to root. I am running coredroid on the mt4g and on my sensation. The mt4g is for my son, he bought one off a kid at school for $20, because the kid didn't like the battery life. I am real happy with coredroid on both phones. Just make sure to go through a few battery cycles before judging any of the roms, most will break in and give great battery life in a few days, at least in my experience.
+1 for ARHD - its the most stable, the most fastest and the support is amazing.... (IMO)
I highly recommend trying it out. Throw in Sebastians kernel and having a Full day AND a half battery wont be a rarity any more.
there are a lot of guides on how to flash it, Its the most popular ROM, The guides are fairly simple, and if you dont like it, flash to something else
