How is the s4 a minor update? Its packing a octocore all you consumers is the same. If they came out with a 200mhz phone 1mb ram an sf 3.7inch screen just because it looks pretty you would say its the best phone in the world its just not about looks its about what it packs under the hood like Samsung good luck waiting a year to unlock your boot loader while us Samsung people is running the latest version of android LOL

I don't think you understand what HTC means to smartphones and Xda-developers. HTC was the company that started it all long before Apple came out with the I-phone. I am not sure how old you are but way back in the day around the 2004-2005 era. We used to have these things PDAs (personal digital assistant). Basically it was the first hand held computers. Well HTC came along and reinvented the phone world with something similar to these PDAs. What HTC did was take the idea of a PDA and build it into a phone. On top of that they thought it would be a good Idea to add a data connection to this new "smart" phone that way it had access to the internet. This evolutionary idea of crossing a phone line with a data line in one phone became known as the HTC XDA (x meaning the cross of data and a phone line). There is a reason HTC is highly regarded on xda and that's because HTC started this all. So lets get one thing straight, if it wasn't for HTC this website and smartphones in general wouldn't exist they way we know them now. Better show a little respect lol

[Q] HTC Sensation Fake

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYKbOJ21ykE
I found on youtube a video of a Sensation fake...
It seems to also have Sense!
I wrote already HTC but no reaction...
I hope they can bann this silly company!
Can someone agree that this is fake?
sorry for bad english
My friend bought a similar fake when he was in Afghanistan. This phone has Sense like interface and poor parameters: 2M camera, 650 MHz CPU, 256 MB RAM.
I must say, that's a really good copy of Sense.
I'm confused...why did you feel the need to e-mail HTC...they're a taiwanese company...do you really think they don't know mainland china try to copy everything they make?
besides, the phone looks nice, it probably works better than the sensation as well...ie no sense restarts when going back to the home screen, better battery...duel sim, lol.
I love my sensation but it's hardly perfect.
Looks and seems better than the real thing.
AFAIK is sense open source
This looks nothing like the sensation. The operating system does only if your on stock .but no way is this a sensation copy cat

Looks like it may be a port from the desire hd which has been modded
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
That is most definitely Sense. As said above, it's a rom from another phone hacked onto low grade hardware. While it's a fake, it is an Android phone.
I want one!!! I wouldn't mind paying $75 for that.
This isa great port... Haha .
Better than GS2 developers who couldn't port Sense framework to their mobile...
Thumbs up China.... No one can beat them when its about duplicate products with 1/10th the price...
That's why 96% products are made in China around the world....
läuft sehr flüssig auf der 650MHz CPU
Can you overclock a 650MHz to a dual core 1.5GHz?
That would be a great phone if it was below 100 bucks.
The performance however, Is nothing like the original sensation
Looks like a pretty brick with the extended battery

These Chinese companies make phone copies ALL THE TIME, they change the design ever so slightly so that it doesn't violate any laws and add extra features like dual-SIMs, etc...
They make iPhone copies, Android phones, you name it. This is typical.
These Chinese phones are also prone to freezing, battery failures and breaking from the slightest drop. My friend got one while in Hong Kong. At first he was bigging it up, within three months it was in the bin.

Is this a myTouch 4G?

EDIT: I found out there is a section for it, here. Sorry for wasting your time!
Hello
I thought this phone was called an HTC Magic, but it appears there is no section for it here. Upon searching myTouch on Google, I get a photo of it.
Here is a photo of the phone I took:

}
(Had to resize it to a width of 500px as it didn't resize automatically)
My question - Is this a myTouch4G? I always called it a Magic.
Anyway, I want to know because I plan to experiment with this phone and install different ROMs etc, see what I can do with it (I've since owned an HTC Desire HD (which has now been lent to my mother, we don't buy separate phones now, she just takes my older ones as you will see why a couple of sentences on )and now a HTC One X) but I need to be sure I don't go off installing ROMs for another phone.. It's served myself, and then my mother (who has been using traditional phones, she's not very "tech-savvy") for near 3 years!
The phone is currently on Android ver 2.2.1.
Thanks to anyone who can help me
Lol. Welcome to XDA.

I think that's a MyTouch 3G. Not 100% but most likely. Look up HTC Magic on the cyanogenmod wiki it'll give you other names of it as well.
Sent from my Glacier using XDA
That's a magic, all right. On TMobile it was named the MyTouch3G. On Vodaphone, it was the HTC Magic. It's almost 3 years old. You can't put any of todays roms on it. Gingerbread is slow like molasses on that thing. I don't think you can give those away now, but it brings back memories.

Thanks. It's very slow. I only wanted to see what I could do with it, without worrying about bricking it, because if I did, it wouldn't matter.
Actually, it is a htc magic. You can put roms on it and its somewhat slow, but not that slow. I had the Mytouch 3G and in order to flash roms you need to boot into bootloader and see if its PVT Board 32A or 32B. If its 32A you're gonna like the development a lot better. Also you need to know how to change the engineering bootloader I'm sure a sub-forum thread will show you how to do that.

Funny but sad. The iSheep saga.

As an ex iPhone user, I hope to God I was never this blind. This video can apply to all products and fans, but it definitely doesn't help the case of the iOS inclined, lol.
Not sure if I should laugh or cry (out of pity).

Guaranteed you can give any one of those people a GS2 and tell them it's a GS3 and get the same type of responses. Sure it's funny because it's an iPhone but there are stupid android users too. I can point out more than a handful that post on XDA, that's for sure.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Yeah an iPhone user wouldn't know the difference between a GS II and III, but I think that a GS II user would. As an android user I couldn't tell you the difference between an iPhone 4 and 4S just by looking at them. (Okay that last part is a joke, but I do think android users are used to the new model looking different than the current model)

When you say "android users" you are grouping everyone together and it doesn't work that way. Same thing with "iphone users". There are moronic iPhone users and Android users alike, which is the point I was making earlier. I would bet my week's paycheck that the people in Jimmy Kimmel's video were the exception and not the rule when it comes to falling for that prank. Of course they aren't going to show the people who knew it was a 4S because that wouldn't be funny.

Motorola X phone!

I thought I would start this thread about the much anticipated and highly fabled Motorola X phone, and quite possibly being the new Nexus 5 device.
Please state any relevant information, such as verified rumors and/or trusted leaks from reliable sources that you might have.
Also, what would you like to see in this upcoming super phone? Let's start the chatter folks
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
You first! I know nothing about it!
Anyone else find it interesting that X phone has passed through the Fcc for all other US carriers but not T Mobile? I've looked on the T Mobile website and I don't see any kind of Motorola devices at all. I also don't see any mention of T Mobile on the Motorola website. In fact the last couple devices the T Mobile has had for Motorola were released 2 years ago I think it was the Defy and the clique. Anyone here anything about a TMobile variant of the X phone? I wouldn't necessarily be interested in a unlocked version because they usually don't support T Mobile's wifi calling.

New rumors said that Android 5.0 and Motorola X Phone both dropping in October. So far, of course, these are rumors.
I have also heard those same rumors and then I also heard that the Motorola X might very well be the Nexus 5 phone with such amazing specs as Android 5.0 and customizable features such as 4gb of Ram and 128gb of internal storage plus an SD card slot just to name a few. I really do hope these to be true. I will be buying this phone and would really like it to blow away all of the competition, Motorola and Google are due

It could have something to do with those sensors they talked about. How the phone will know if it's in your pocket or in the car and at what speed you are actually traveling.
