What's some of the easiest ways to directly download downloads to my sensation and but them on my sd card.

Are you talking about roms or applications ? Or which kinds of downloads? For roms sometimes i directly download other times I use computer and download to the device. It depends on which way you prefer.

Ok the easiest thing to do is install them to your computer. Then just copy them over to your phone via usb but make sure you don't put any of the files in any folders so that they are easier to find

I agree with above statement! I like to install from computer, much faster! Also the download goes directly to root of ad card! Makes it easy to find! I use my device as disk drive E, then install to "removable disk drive E" makes it really simple. Also downloads are much much faster than directly downloading to device. Hope this helps!

Other option is to connect to WiFi and then download whatever file you want to download. It should be the same speed as in computer, but with the benefit you don't have to plug and unplugged your phone to the computer.

How can you move an app from one phone to another? I have an app on my old phone which is no longer offered on market.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
Step
1. Download App Save from Market on the old phone
2. Install and save that APK to the SD card
3. Send AKP via bluethooth or switch the SA cards and install on the new cell.
there is an app in the market called bump you need it on both phones
it will send a download link to the other phone
I've tried BUMP. It sends the icon for the app to my new phone, but not the app itself.

Yes, download a ROM using your phone, use a file manager like astro to then move the ROM to the root of your SD card, then use it to check the md5 check sum to make sure you don't have a corrupt download, then flash as you would normaly throught CWM.....that's it.
Remember to do a backup of your current ROM first...

tats wat i like about android over iphone
with custom recovery, root explorer or any other file explorer, u can flash any rom on the go w/o the aid of a pc.
what i do is install astro explorer - having the option to check md5sum
download any rom from anywhere...
after finish download, use astro n move the rom.zip to root of sd card, boot into recovery n flash it
I must add : make sure the rom can be flash with cwm, if not you could semi-brick your phone. But custom roms are usually made for cwm flashing. Only official rom can't be flashed via cwm they are usually in .exe file, but you can also find them in zip file sometimes and you must extract it before flashing via pc.
How do you install the offical .exe roms then? And how do I check md 5 sum?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App
Just follow the directions when you open the .exe
Warning though - you'll lose S-OFF and CWM
google for md5 checker

I flashed the stock wwe eur ruu and it left my phone s-off, even though it flashed the h-boot. It did put the recovery back to stock though and lost root, which can easily be sorted.

The only thing that is the ROM sizes are over 300mb and I hit the tmobile 5gb cap so many times downloading on my phones data so I need to use WiFi more... But with the nexus one most roms were under 80 mb so it wasn't a problem . But its still cool you can switch roms on the fly

Official rom (RUU) are only b able to flash via pc unless u extract the upsate.zip n put it in ur root of ur sdcard.. well of coz extracting n moving it needs the pc too...
As for md5sum, astro manager does the trick.. press n hold on the zip file n press "properties" u will c all the details of the file include date time n of coz the md5sum. Do give it some time to load up the details though.
I saw a thread somewhr tat theres a md5checksum app in the market.. u might wanna check it out too..

Hi,
Unzip your ROM.
Go to system-->app-->and copy HTClisten.apk to your sd card.
It should ask whether you want to install it.
Say YES!
Done but never asked to install tried rebooting but still not there, anyother suggestions
Rather should I have said tried to install but it failed

Hi,
Are you using ES File Explorer?
Whenever I import an .apk ,it will ask if I want to install it...
Root explorer pro
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
The new version supports tv streaming.. but checks for root before you can use.. I've ready several forums where a XDA user bypass the check for root..but his links are down and hasn't replied to messages..so my question is..can someone look into it and see if thru can do the same

All you have to do is rename the superuser.apk file to ultrauser or whatever you want to call it with something like root explorer.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G XE with Beats Audio using xda premium
If you are using supersu then there is an option to temp disable root.I did it for sky go while on holiday and it worked a treat,I believe it checks for binary files and NOT the superuser.apk
Neither of those work for their app.. there's a whole post about in the galaxy nexus forums about everything that's been done to get the app to work..they have all the features working except you still have to be on your home network to view live tv but they are working on that too.. but the links to download the apk are down

I did finally get another user to post it..so I have the apk now..if anyone's interested I'll upload it

Can you post it please, thanks
Cant you just deny it root access and it'll think you're unrooted? Seems like a load of BS to me.
