hey i just got a htc sensation from trading with a friends and it has some scratches on the back so i wanted a new one i saw on ebay that was like this
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Ba...ccessories&hash=item2a151686f2#ht_4450wt_1163
but how ever it's missing a pin right next to the speaker will it work on my tmobile htc sensation USA?
Yes. I believe this pin has something to do with international roaming, but I'm not 100% certain. Some people have death-grip, GPS, and signal issues with the TMOUS Sensation and they found that getting a new back cover without that pin actually HELPS those issues. Based on general consensus the worst case scenario is that you won't notice a difference...or the cover will be fused with an explosive and your phone will blow up. Seriously though, it works.
k thanks a lot pretty happy i traded my g2x for the sensation LOL

My myTouch 4G is falling apart, development is dry and I need a new phone.. I got lucky once by buying a device that once had a ****load of development going on but it's slowed down and dried up so much it's just meh.. I wanna go to another device now, and with MWC right around the corner it's a perfect time, but I'll only want to buy the HTC Ville if people are actually buying it. Is anyone, developer or not, buying HTC's next flagship?
If not... I may just pick up a Sensation
The only thing that would make me buy another phone is if this one brakes and I'm out of warranty.
Sensation had been a great phone but at the same time lots of hardware issues, so it hardware issues will have to annoy me pretty bad to jump ship.
I have been through about 6 Sensations because of dust under screen, dead pixels and bad build quality causing vibration, so if when my warranty runs out which is in April btw, my replacement phone is not up to my standards I'm changing to something else but first I'm going to read reviews and not be early adopter.
My replacement Sensation should be sitting at home and hopefully will be a good one.

My next phone will also be HTC. I just love the Sensation, enjoy evey minute of it and having no problem at all(Hardware or Software)
The next flagship will probably be the Edge, a quad-core unit, unlike the Ville which will be an advanced version of the Sensation with a Dual Core processor.

I'm looking for a good pre-paid smartphone that I can use my t-mobile 4G sim card in.any suggestions.I would like to stay around $100.00 if possible.

Are you getting rid of your sensation? For the price range you have I'd stick with the sensation. You will have a much lower quality device than the sensation in that price range. Why not wait a bit and add another hundred or so and you can get a good quality device. After coming from sensation I doubt you will be satisfied with something of lesser quality. Look possibly for used devices and see what deals you can get. I wish you the best.

Your best bet is going to be something like a samsung galaxy vibrant. It's a large step down but it does have a couple great jelly bean roms out for it that I've been using. If you're really lucky you might be able to pick up a LG G2x for close to that price on craigs list, but you'd have to get pretty lucky. I lucked out and got my sensation for $150 so you never know.
Like realsis says though you are going to be getting an inferior phone for that price, but you can get something usable and reliable. I keep my vibrant as a back up phone just in case I fubar my sensation so I know how you feel.
People say the Samsung Exhibit II can be had around that in the used market. I've never used one myself but a friend has one and likes it. I'm sure in the single core world, there's probably something better to be had for the money though.
Yes, the G2x would be a "good" choice if you can score one for that cheap. People hate on that phone for software issues. But its sibling might be getting ICS soon (I might be wrong), so it may be in its future unofficially as well. Problem is no nVidia drivers so no hardware acceleration for the roms now.
I would go for the HD2, thats a windows phone, but there is android for it (even JB) windowns phone 6.5, 7 and 7.5 and meego, or try the galaxy s, thats a good phone to!

Anything newer than a Hero really, You want it to have its own GPU and not just a CPU. Angry birds on the hero lags horribly and even facebook takes ages to load!
Let me describe my almost 1-year long experience with mentioned devices.
HD2 was the nicest phone to work with. No S-OFF's and ****. Just flashing hspl and bootloader from RUU and you are on fully unlocked android (one-time job). Everything else is fastboot and CWM. N1 roms just need a diff and they are ported to HD2 in no time. Only problem I had were hardware buttons. they get squashed after time and eventually they can damage display's ribbon cable or just stop working (about ~1.5 y and you get problems).
Galaxy series (or vibrant in US) is typical samsung-you will get tons of RIL issues due to poor baseband implementation. Missed calls. After time it also develops pink spot on camera, and gps shouldn't be on list of features at all-it bearly works on open field. Mic disorts and noone can hear you on the other end. Only thing good about it is the screen.
I also had SE Arc which is also cheap, but it's camera cannot focus closer than arm's lenght (macros are mission impossible) and it had same cheap feeling of S, but it's screen is in 2008 netbook range (no group watching of photos on this phone is possible) and resolution of 854x480 which confuses many apps. Plus it's hard to unlock without voiding warranty and speed is comparable to HD2.
I have got the Sensation a few days ago for 180 euro but it's by far the best used phone you can get on cheap. just sayin'. I S-OFFed with Juopunutbear and I'm unlocked without loosing warranty. S3 kicks even GN's ass (omap4) in terms of speed and gpu power.
Look on eBay. Some phones are still expensive (e.g. iPhone) but others are stupidly cheap (e.g. pre)

I apologize if there have been threads like this in the past, search is currently down.
I, wondering if the three sensation models' (Sensation, TMO 4G, and XE) are all interchangeable. I'm going to be getting a cracked screen t-mobile sensation tomorrow (if all goes well) and I definitely want the replacement digitizer to be unbranded, or maybe an XE one just to throw in some special flair.
Will that work? I would think so as they're all three the same phone just branded differently, but I just need to be absolute sure before I shell out the cash for a replacement.
Thanks guys!
I've stayed on the Sensation spot if the XDA-Developers forum for quite a while now. I've seen people with Tmo digitizers getting replaced with unbranded ones. Not sure if anybody has done it with the XE digitizers.
You should go take a look at that thread named "Broken digitizer? look here" because it's not a branding issue if I recall correctly but there are specific digitizer models and people had trouble when they happened to get a replacement part but wasn't the same number as that of the broken digitizer.
Good luck :good:
My XE would not work properly with a standard sensation digitizer.

Alright, so I should just go with the standard unbranded?
I don't really like the red keys anyway so that works for me

I wish I had seen the above thread before ordering an unbranded digitizer. I have a Tmo US 4g and I just replaced my digitizer over the weekend with an unbranded one and it's horrible. The phone is barely usable. I have a branded "OEM" one on the way now. Hopefully I have better results with it.
Guys,
HTC, the company that gave us the original xda series, the T-mo G1, Nexus One, Evo and other great phones is in dire financial straits.
They're on a downward spin for the last two quarters, and while they might not be in danger yet, analysts reckon that soon, they will.
HTC devices have always had the best build quality and better than normal specs, and as a company, I hold a lot of regard for them, based on my experiences with the HTC Touch, the Nexus One and the Sensation.
I hope this thread won't get locked/deleted by a mod. I don't know if there are rules prohibiting such threads as mine, but I'm just trying to grt my opinion out there.
This promotional video by HTC reminded me of all I love about them:
http://youtu.be/fWDHYqBSjQg
HTC continues to produce some of the best devices on the market, with the Droid DNA/HTC DLX being the latest of those.
I request any xda member/developer looking to buy a new device to consider buying HTC.

No. Until they put bigger batteries and/ or removable batteries on their phones (and get rid of Sense) , I'll always look away. Its time to move on.

Sensation is my last HTC device unless HTC improve their relations with developers, they have started encrypting RUU now which mean no ports, no developments for older phones unless this can be cracked. Also HTC update policy stinks...

Yeah, I heard about the encryption.
You'd think a company that's in dire straits would do all it could to improve relations with devs...
Like it did in it's heyday in 2011...
Though Droid DNA development seems to be off to a nice start...
They've already leaked a few exploits, and all the devs stuck on Verizon are migrating from the Incredible to the DNA...
Quite a few sponsored-ish feeling reviews etc on that board...
So maybe they are working to correct their ways... only time can tell.

Totally agree with you about the batteries bit...
And the Sense bit too... Sense makes no sense, but nobody matches HTC build quality, and we can always flash an alternative like CM, AOKP or PA to be Sense-free...
