Would you take back a phone for this reason

I just got my replacement sensation 4g and it is like 2 little dots of light that like idk seep through the screen. Its really not on the screen thqt you touch its on the bottom left corner next to the home button. It is kind of annoying when I take my case off and see them but maybe I will get used to it idk. Would you take yours back for this? I also am having my htc sense keep crashing and my phone randomly reboot itself. On T-Mobile chat they say it is an app causing this and not the phone because they fixed that problem with the last update and want me to delete some apps off my phone to see which app is causing it. Anybody else having those issues?

Bottom line, if you aren't happy and able to exchange it, then yes I would.

Its not on the touch part of the screen. Its on the outer black rim to the edge next to the home button.

Try this: in a (very) well lit room, place the phone in front of a mirror and take a pic with the front cam...

I tried and I couldn't see it. I think you can only see it in the dark when its light I couldn't even see it (this is the first day I used my phone without a case with the case on I couldn't see it). But its still kind of annoying. Maybe I'm just being anal.

Taking Screenshot without extra app

Do people know that we can take a screenshot on sensation without using any extra app by pressing power/restart botton and home button at the same time or it is just me found this out so late?

Yeah sorry to say just you, Us early adopters have seen it in rom, off rom, in rom, off rom lol ! and finally its back
If you have an ICS ROM press Power + Volume Down to use the new screenshot feature too.
Yes... I found this out by accident when the power button got stuck hehehe

Thanks, I didn't know how to make screenshot as I never tried, but now I will
Not all ROMS have this feature but in the Android SDK DDMS.bat does have a screenshot feature

[Q] Back cover and volumen buttons

Can i buy a back cover and volumen buttons from Sensation 4G for my normal Snsation?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
Hi. Yes you sure can buy a new back cover that includes volume buttons. Actually you can get them quite inexpensive online. Search Amazon or EBay and you will find them. I got one for my device. I believe it was around 7 dollars. Hope this is helpful! Best wishes.

I buy everything from ebay for my Htc. Never had problems. The back covers are cheap. It may be not OEM but always fits. OEM parts are expensive.
They're pretty cheap on Ebay. Mine cost me like $20
I found them,for very low price,only i didnt know that Thank You guys

I think the only difference between the back covers is if it's the black one or the white one.
The antenea connections are in different spots on the white one.
But hardware wise the Sensation, Sensation 4G, and Sensation XE are all the same thing.
I tought to buy white,but then i wont :/

That's nonsense that antenna connectors are different on white case. It can't be possible at all.

As i can see on every picture on google,on white and black cover,connectors are on the same place..

As a matter of fact the phones are the same. The XE is nothing more then a boost in hardware and software with a touch of Beats. If you read the test the normal Sensation is under clocked ( if I say it right)
I have Elegncia ROM wich is powered with Beats so I ordered the white XE backcover with Beats logo for my Sensation.
Sure they are the same. Idk who wrote that connectors are in different place, why would somebody produce white cases with different connectors that don't fit..

Because they did.
Choose to not believe it all you want. But dont come crying when it doesnt work properly.
The white cover has less connector pins or something. So the signal is affected greatly on some networks.

touch problem... :(

hi all, my sensation xe keeps on screwing me up with touch problemz...
having listened to some music, when it gets a little warmer in its bottom, touch quality gets terrible, in a way that i have to tap the screen several timez til it'll let me unlock the screen. of course this issue persists when the phone is lied on its back. n i'm sure that it ain't relevant to softwarez or rom. only hardware i think.
what do u suggest for me to do? n what's ur opinion about putting a little alumminium foil on the metal part on its back connecting it to the back cover? plz hel me

Probably but one feature we won't receive is the ability to dock for desktop mode. The hardware just isn't good enough.

It works fine for me but only with power supply. I've soldered my own Y cable according to a thread found in XDA. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1828032)
