[Q] Sensation XE Red menu lights, anyone?! - HTC Sensation

Hello, for those like me that have upgraded to ANDROID REVOLUTION XE 6.2.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
I have thought about the crazy idea of changing the white leds at the bottom of the screen into the Sensation XE (red ones) just to complete the exterior look of the Sensation XE given the fact that the software is 100% Sensation XE and my phone used to be HTC Sensation only.
I have also purchased a red back cover for the Sensation XE that you can get on eBay.

I have searched on XDA and on the net but nobody seems to be doing this, i imagine because the process is quite complex as it requires removing the white LEDs for the red LEDs and who knows who is selling them?!
Anyway its just a crazy idea so if somebody knows something or has an idea let me know...
Regards,

Could you not just go to a model shop, and buy some clear red paint.
Either directly on the led, or paint the back of the buttons.

Actually just the back of the buttons.. that's red. From what I can see in my phone, the leds must be white

The LEDs are whit, not red. They are filtered through red paint work.

excellent!
thanks for the heads up guys! if i end up doing it, i will post pics.
(however i feel a bit sceptical about removing the 6 screws and breaking a wire or something)

[Q] Is Sensation LED Indicator significantly visible at angles?

This feature will add up to wanting me buy sensation, aside from dust proof, and touch responsiveness issues (hope its software related not grounding stuff):
knowing that LED indicator is behind earpiece grill, can someone describe the visibility:
* looking straight on the phone?
* looking at 45 angle at 2 meter distance from different sides of the phone?
Straight at the phone u can see it, at 45, a half of the flash? Well, it's okay...

It's noticeable to me! That was a feature which is missing on the G2x that drove me crazy every "smartphone" should have a notification light!
Thanks a lot, LED visibility should be no issue now for me.
I will keep an eye on dust entering beneath the screen and swipe not responsive issue..
I wonder if dust already there since phone was bought or dust can enter..?
The latter is worst, it is a screen sealed issue..

There is no dust under my screen. There is no way that dust can enter screen after purchase so those who have dust under screen must of bought a bad phone.

i have only seen white back covers...but im pretty sure the white digitizer will be out soon.
that would be sick

I have the white battery cover.The white digitizer would make my sensation complete.
I have a white XE battery housing for my S4G, and frankly I love the appearance of black on front and white on back. Then again, I get bored quickly and options are a good thing.

Spot on screen top

Hi everyone.
Buy sensation two weeks ago.
And noticed little spot (or bubble) on screen near ambient (which is under glass) sensor.
Is there malfunction?
Looks more like it has happened due to dust or something, which is a more common issue when it comes to the Sensation..
Don't worry mate! it doesn't look like a malfunction
Dust on top of the screen.Forget to clean the screen before take foto
Spot is under screen.

You see there's a common problem in Sensation of dust getting under the screen..It's a manufacturing defect available in many Sensations..There are one or two such bubbles in my phone as well..but they are not that visible..So that's what I referred to by saying it may have caused due to dust..
So no worries mate!
Thanks.Is bubbies on visible part of display?

Well, yeah there can be some bubbles underneath the middle of the screen as well..but as it's a manufacturer default we have no control over it..you can avoid the situation to an extent by using a case that covers the bezel of the phone..
and if there are lots of dust underneath the screen you can return the device and get a replacement, but that won't be an option if there are only little..
you can refer to this thread which discusses about this issue:

[Q] sensation xe touch screen plus pcb problem help

Hi there I bought a HTC sensation XE beats audio phone the screen wouldn't work so I have put a new digitizer plus new LCD display. After fitting these the touch didn't work still so I took apart and noticed that the clip had broke off where the ribbon slotted in so I bought a new top PCB board and transfered this into the handset but still the touch don't work. I did however find a small resistor stuck to the tape that was stuck on the ribbon that connects the 2 PCB boards together. Now it looks silver on the edges and is a cream colour in the middle its not a tiny 1 either so I could solder it back on but I have no idea where it goes as there's no obvious place it was fitted to. Has any body got some clear shots of the main PCB where the sim card fits ? Need to compare them please thanks

heyyy, why yo doin all these strange deedz??!
see, i'd got exactly the same issue (i think). all u need ta do is this:
use ur battery however u want all the way, til it gets shut down. n then put the battery out n press the power button like as if u were trying to turn on the phone, then let it stay still over a night (without the battery) then plug it in charge, but BEWARE YOU WILL NOT TOUCH THE SCREEN NO WAY UNTIL IT IS FULLY CHARGED!
now ur problem must be gone! mine did!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
that pretty "thanks" button's waiting for u if i helped

I will put the phone back together and try that out but still want to know where that resistor goes lol

[Q] HTC Sensation XE Digitizer

Hello,
I recently dropped my HTC Sensation XE, so the digitizer cracked.
I had it replaced by a friend today, but for some reason de home buttons (which should be red) lit up purple.
I have no clue why this is happening.
Does anybody have the answer?
Thanks!
Is Ur digitizer is from company or from internet or local
if its from internet or local then its digitizer is wrong as u have got a fake one which have a home button with purple colour
if u friend can replace a digitizer then he can also colour it .

Thanks. I noticed some strange vertical lines across the screen in daylight today.
I'm pretty sure that the digitizer is fake indeed.
EDIT:
I've contacted the company from which I bought the digitizer. I am awaiting their reply.
In case they won't reply, does anybody happen to know how I could color the home buttons red?

The strip is not replaceable as far as I can tell.
Should I use a red waterproof marker on the bottom of the digitizer to colour it?
