[Q] Dust under screen on a new Sensation XE - HTC Sensation

Hello,
my 2-days old HTC Sensation XE has dust under the screen. It's not so much, but could I get a replacement or do they just clean the screen (which would doesn't fix the problem)?
And could you recommend me a good case for this phone to prevent for new dust?
Best regards

Send it back and get it fixed. When mine was fixed, I saw in the list of things fixed that they used some kind of lamination which i guess is to protect against dust getting in again.

I sent mine back and had a replacement screen. Was a pain.

[IDEA!!!!] HTC Sensation XE back-cover

I've decided that my next phone will be a HTC sensation, but what if we could buy a HTC sensation xe back cover, use it on an original sensation, then BAM! Red speaker grill, black back cover and beats audio logo printed on. That coupled with a custom ROM that gives you a beats audio profile will give you a sensation identical to a sensation xe except for the red LED lights and the higher capacity battery( you could buy high capacity battery).
So, what do you think?
I thought this was obvious? Lol
But yeah, I hope I can get a XE cover soon, I want to make the current one brushed aluminum

Had this idea as soon as I saw sensation xe, unfortunately haven't been able to find any back covers for sale
As soon I get the chance, I will do it!
I've heard it won't work. Something to do with the pins or the antenna on the back covers being different. But don't take my word for it lol

I think thats just the T-Mobile USA it applies to, as the antenna is different on the Sensation 4G

Go to ebay uk search 'htc sensation xe back cover' its the 8th or 9th one down it says 'ORIGINAL OEM HTC SENSATION XE BEATS AUDIO BLACK REAR BACK DOOR BATTERY COVER' It might be from hong kong but its a start, only £30 too!
i've been thinking about how to do this with a tmous sensation... and this is what i've found.... the XE back has a spot for the 4g contact... what do you guys think?
You can always purchase the new XE cover from ebay and pop off the top plastic piece and replace it with your original one so you can retain the antenna. The camera ring also pops off. The only difference would be the plastic will be two-tone from the bottom piece like the original sensation.

That white one looks nice. Like to see what else turns up in the future.
would it work on sensation 4G?
I guess check if the contacts are in the right place on the pics

My Sensation is a Z710a (Australian model) It doesn't have the contact on the top left but does use 4G. It used to show a H but since changing to Coredroid, it shows 4G. (it also shows up as a Z710e now)If that missing contact is supposed to be the 4G antenna, how am I using 4G?
Also, what are the small contacts on the left about 2/3rd's of the way down? mine has 3
Hey whats up guys! I have T-Mobile and just got my White HTC Sensation housing from ebay. It came with only 3 antennas but just so you know, I still get 4G, Wifi and GPS. It works perfect! Also it actually got rid of the grip of death issue as well.

Sensation or Sensation XE ?

Hey guys,
how's it going Sensation-ers ?
as it reads, I wanna buy one of them, is the XE worth the extra money?
plus, will Sensation ROMs work on the XE?
btw, i used to be a Galaxy S user, then stupidly enough I bought HTC Titan .. WP7 suck! , big time, failure on both fronts, fun and practicality !,, just an awesome OS design.
If you go Android,, you never go back ! ... Testified !
Thanks
From what i have read they are basically same and there is ROM for Sensation that turns Sensation into Sensation XE?!
BTW, I'm having the same question as you! Sensation XE is 33 eur more expensive than regular Sensation, but comes with good quality headphones i read somewhere? So are that headphones worth 33 eur if everything else is same? Have XE also stronger battery?
Can someone help us to solve this dilemma please?

how about the screen ?? ,, is it as washed as they say in reviews? I'm asking cause i know when you using it daily it's not the same .. so how's it from your point of view?
I have the XE and the screen looks great, although there is some text ghosting when scrolling through settings menu etc. Nothing that concerns me though.

There are 2 type of screen. If you got the AUO acer, then you got the vivid, pinkiest color, gosting issue and no wash a way screen. But if you got Sharp screen, you got screen with no vivid or pinkiest and gosting issue, but you got wash a way screen. Search thread about the two type screen on general section and you will understand it.

which manufacturers has built your LCD panel on the XE?

ONLY FOR XE EDITION!
Who produces the LCD panel on XE?
Has XE edition same manufacturers?
Follow the guide below than post your value!

With the My Touch 4g I'm sure you MT4G users will remember the good screen/bad screen issue. Where one lcd panel was made by sony, and the other was made by sharp. The Sharp lcd screen would wash out more on an angle than the sony. I have read some people speculate that the sensation might have the same "issue"
It has been confirmed that the Sensation has two different LCD panels. One made by Acer (AUO) and one made by sharp. The sensation does not have a good screen bad screen issue. Some people prefer the acer screen and others prefer the sharp. I have had both and they both are really beautiful displays. You can only really tell the difference if they are side by side.
To find out which panel you have:
Use terminal emulator (free from the market) and run the command dmesg (root is not needed obviously)
it will output a bunch of stuff.. look for this line and report it: (if you can't find it you can long press on the output in terminal emulator copy all and then paste it into an email and send it to yourself)
just look for the line (the numbers might not be the same) [ 9178.895111] Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_??????
Mine is sharp so my line is Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_SHARP
If you have searched and can't find reboot and try again.
Pics I took of the two side by side:
AUO on left/top Sharp on right/bottom:

Let me know how you get on.
Mine one is AUO_NT.....& it's Damn Awesome
Most Europe and US Edition are AUO
Most Asia Edition are Sharp
Kazi639, No ghosting? Try settings > wireless networks and scroll up and down. Mines looks horrible when I do this. It's only really noticeable on black background.

AUO isn't bad. Neither display is perfect they both have their pros and cons.
Mine is Sharp,white Sensation XE bought in Europe
I had both, and I like both. Suo has brighter colors and the actual display is more bright as well.
Sharp, is more sharp but it's brightness is much lower.
So both have Pros and Cons like Sdobron said.

OK, because I've only had the phone 28 days t-mobile are sending me a replacement. Just need to cross my fingers that it has a sharp screen. If t-mobile didn't change it htc UK were willing to look at it and change the screen if "the engineer agrees the screen is faulty".
My friend has the xe with a sharp screen, I will make a video with them side by side to highlight the difference and post a link here.

Battery Back Door Cover for HTC Sensation

I have quick question the Battery Back Door Cover from sensation 4g/xe fits on the normal sensation (europe)? What's with antena it will work good ?
And what's the difference between this two :

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Housing-Bat...ultDomain_0&hash=item35bb3e79da#ht_835wt_1396
?
Yes it will work, and the only difference between the two is the addition of beats logo in the first one.

I'm wondering if these replacement back covers got metal at all? or if they're just plastic... it's always hard to find out
you can always ask before you get them. i ordered white one from ebay and they told me its same as original with 2 plastic parts and core from metal

Most important... was it correct when you recieved it?
we will see i ordered it before 3 days it will take some time to get to serbia
I've got the white one but the problem with it is that you can easily see the dirt and if your hands have anything on them, even small marks of pen, they get put onto the white parts

Do the replacement battery covers come with the volume buttons?

The title says it all. I want a white cover and need the volume buttons. Thanks.
When I got a warranty replacement battery cover from HTC it came with all the buttons anyway...
Yes, the replacement white covers you get on eBay/Amazon come with the volume buttons and power button...at least mine did almost 2 years ago
...I have noticed that the power button on the replacement white cover I had purchased seems a little more recessed and slightly lower on one side than the other. Has never affected the way it works though...however, there are tons of different sellers so manufacturing may vary
Hope this helps answer your question...
