Attention those thinking about HTC SENSATION - dont do it!

So I got the sesnation yesterday for 24 hours on TMOB. Took it back today. What a dissapointment.
Once again my Atrix has trumped a device IMHO. First the Inspire then the SGS2 and now the Sensation
. I always thought I preferred Sense but after Atrix plus launcherPro, Sense feels so heavy! PLUS Atrix runs video so much more smoothly than the sensation. Also sound on the sensation was really low, especially the spealerphone. Whites are better and I think images clearer and brighter on the Atrix. Camera is marginally better on Sensation. Battery much worse on Sensation. GPS about the same. Internal memory is worse with same apps on Sensation. I don't know why. Screen size difference is marginal.
Forget what quadrant says, when I ran the same apps on both the load up time was practically the same.
I has the SGS2 for a couple of weeks and I think that's better than the Sensation but I think the Atrix, with its HDMI out, and peripherals (hacked!) Beats them both.
This device is a workhorse. It can take everything I have thrown at it.
In glad I stuck with the Atrix.

The sensation over heats way too much ..the camera is really nice though ...

oh wow.. thanks for this info. this is very sad. yeah i dont really use hdmi out but its there.. haha. i love my camera though ;D and with the pentile display on the atrix we have alot more advantages. i honestly dont care about the pixelation on the notrification bar and SOME icons. it DOESNT happen on normal pictures. so.. i am kinda glad i stuck with the atrix, think of our atrix with unlocked bootloader and custom ROMs. this device would own all out there (besides camera wise). and looks. lol, sensation looks amazazaaaaaing.

Atrix has been reported to as well, and SGS II. G2x is only one i havent heard having the issue. so... haha must be the dualcore with no fan? and no the sensation isnt overheating (i think). its aluminum so its going to feel more hot since it is a like conducter. kind of like a computers heat sink..

So you run launcher pro on the Atrix but kept Sense on the Sensation? That doesn't quite seem fair.

Who buys a Sensation after an Atrix in hopes of a better phone, doesn't know a sh*t about PDA's at all. Big RAM / ROM matters a lot.

What a dickhead comment. Practically everything that is out there suggests the Sensation is a wonderful device. It must be hard for you, knowing that you are the smartest guy on the internets, especially when no one else thinks so.

Nobody asked you how you'd describe the shape of your head but i am sorry if my post touched you badly. Anyway, at the least you know what's right or wrong, that's why you keep coming back to Atrix.
Peace !

It took you that long to figure out a response? The point is this is a public discussion forum not a place where you need to prove how smart you are. Anyway, weapons away. Life's too short.

Thanks for the post. I have been curious about the sensation too.
My biggest gripe with my atrix is the creaking battery cover. My phone does not feel solid at all

Mine was creaking as well. I purchased a ruberized battery door from cnn.cn and it is much better. No creaking watsoever plus it looks cool.

I am glad to hear this.... alot. Having just released the Atrix here in Australia, and knowing that the Sensation was coming out here very soon, I'm glad that my impatience has paid off for once.
Sorry to go off topic, but...
With the growing number of people the world over, loving the Atrix, surely Motorola will soon wakeup to them selves and unlock the bootloader when the Gingerbread upgrade is rolled out.
Also, Atrix with Launcher Pro... heavenly!!! (IMHO)

Check out "HeLauncher" in the Android Market.
It allows for various themes, including a very eerily close "HTC Sense"...

I would rather own an x10 than an atrix. Blur is junk!

HTC bootloaders are easier to break through. The battery and subpar RF are a totally different story...

I love my x10 as well. Hell, i still use it when I go places where I know my phone has a greater chance to be damaged, like when I'm golfing or going to the beach. But there's no way that it's better than the Atrix or Sensation. Even with a custom rom, it's still massively slower compared to the newer generation of phones.

This Phone Won't Die

I am returning to the Incredible after dabbling with a Fascinate for a while. It just seems this thing will never die out. Developments has actually boomed since I was last here and that is great.
Much respect to the devs, you guys are awesome.

The original Incredible, the N1, and the Evo in my mind are the three pure Android phones that have cult status IMO.

I test drove the fanny too, and have to say it. The dinc crushes that phone. The dinc is like a Midwestern farmgirl, and the Fanny is like a Russian model. The dinc isn't quite as pretty, but when you need some heavy labor done, she goes like crazy until the task is done. While the Russian model looks at you with that pretty screen, and has no idea what you just asked her. ; )

Quite the comparison, haha.

i'm definitely not bored with it yet!! the only thing i think would improve it is 4G. other than that, i'll ride it to the end..

I have the Inc now (upgraded from the droid back in late March) and its a nice phone, but I definitely wish I had something more current (which I will come November). From a hardware standpoint its a nice phone with moderate hardware but from a modding standpoint it's not the top of the list since its still locked (and can be bricked, like my original one which I had for a week) and the hardware is showing its age when it comes to new software like Sense 3.

I believe you forgot the one that started it all: The Moto Droid.

What do you mean its locked? The inc1? Its easy as hell to root/s-off.
Hardware may be showing some age but the dev support is pretty good still.
And I'd second that about the OG Droid.

JoelZ has a Sense 3.0 ROM that runs beautifully on my dinc. No lagging, lots of free memory, its a solid daily.

The Dinc was and is my first android phone, got it when it came out last April.
Whenever I do move on, if its in December when I'm up for a new one, or later, its gonna be tough to move on. I've definitely been spoiled with the solidity of the phone and the ferocity of the dev community for it.

Im gettin a second for my gf. Anyone thay doesnt want thier dinc, im makin a stockpile to make mine last forever.
Youre looking at a crackflashing troll with ORD

sure at the right price ;-)

I'm contemplating moving to the Tbolt or Inc2 but lack of Dual Core and CM7 is definitely stopping me. CM7 is keeping me nice and cozy with the Inc.

Im contemplating getting the Droid 3 but man oh man is it hard. $450 for it? Idk. The incredible has served me very well, and it still has a ton of life in it. All I need to do is give it some body work... like a new chassis. I abused this thing way too much haha.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Where did you hear $450?
Or is that assuming you can get $150 for your Inc and the Droid3 is $600?
I want that phone too. XD

Hahaha well the Droid x 2 is only 450... just a guess ha. But I've been reading and looking at the Sensation... oh so tempting. The Droid 3 just isn't as pretty and polished... but it has a keyboard... and Motorola is unlocking handsets now. I hate decisions.

Don't count on the Droid 3 to have anything less than an encrypted bootloader.

Who loves their GALAXY S2?

Just wanted to make a thread to see how many people with accually answer.

pointless thread but agreed, this phone is the nuts!

It's my very first Android device, and at first I thought "OMG, amazing device *like*"
Now I got it for about ~2 1/2 months, and with every day I love it more
IMO this thing is as close to a complete PC as laptops are to desktops, i.e. there is just *SO* much one can do with it (esp. talking things that go way beyond just using apps )

Galaxy Nexus Goodbye Thread!

Well guys, this may be it. I'm probably going to buy a G-Nex tonight, if not, sometime this week. I've had a great experience here. My first android phone was the DINC and it will be remembered....as my new MP3 player... Sad yet great day! Thanks to all the Devs! Hope to see some of you over at the G-Nex LTE forums!!!
Also, everyone else feel free to use this as a home for your goodbyes!

Same here! I loved my Inc, got it on launch day shipped.
Also same here - I'm thinking of passing it on to my son, who is too young for a phone but loves to game on it. Anyone know of a ROM that is specifically designed to turn it into a sort of aPod?

How would you be able to get one tonight? It releases tomorrow. I'm getting one too probably tomorrow.

I've learned a lot here, since it was my first Android device. I'll miss it here, but you can find me in the Galaxy Nexus / HTC Flyer / Xoom forums.
I'll stop back from time to time, see how things are going!

Not good enough
I went into Verizon yesterday to look at the Galaxy Nexus and I just wasn't impressed enough to spend the money. Oh well, maybe the next big phone release will be too irresistible. The whole game playing with the release date changing so much just left a bad taste in my mouth too.

I too, am joining the Galaxy Nexus crowd! It's been a great year and half everyone, hope to see all of you around GN forums!

Goodbye Galaxy Nexus
Well,
After 26 days of owning not one, but 3 Galaxy Nexus phones, I have returned mine as the problems I had with the call quality/signal strength and the phone constantly muting itself during calls, have made me not want it anymore. Yes it was a beautiful device, had great speed, an awesome screen, and a lot of other things, but it didn't live up to what a phone is meant to be, a PHONE!. I know that there are software updates coming out to all of the folks with this phone and I hope that you get your issues resolved by it, but I simply couldn't justify keeping it for what I paid. So now back to an old phone for me until something works out!

Former Inc owner with a Nexus now. Unlocking and rooting the phone was easy. Haven't had a chance to flash anything on it yet but the roms look great. I dunno making the switch was easy for me.

I have a rezound, an OG Droid and just picked upa Dinc for the hellovit from a cousin...I cant tell you how impressed I am at the speed and feel of the dinc. I had a tbolt too for a while and the dinc feeps way faster and battery life is magnificent with an evo 2000mah battery in it. May activate the dinc one day just for $h1ts and giggles....

Well ladys and gentlemen the time has come. My brand new HTC sensationXE arrived today so my little wildfire will be moving into retirement this has been such a great forum to me through all the noob moments, teaching me all I now know and forever cementing my love for android! Although i won't be leaving this forum ( don't think I could) most of my time will be over at the sensation forums.

3 reasons ive been put off htc one.
1: Bootloader unlocked by htcdev? Dunno if there's an alternative yet, i haven't looked so there might be but if there isn't its definitely a no for me. I want full s-off not just a little bit of it.
2: No sd card, yes i know music and pictures load faster on internal memory but i want the choice of where i want to put things and the ability to expand when i fill it with all my failed mods!
3: Not able to remove the battery? Well thats just a silly idea unless the battery will last forever with seriously heavy usage, bare in mind i most days struggle to get 5 hours from my wildfire and have to take a spare battery everywhere.
Other than that the screen looks sh*thot but sadly not for me.........

1) well, i only modded wildfire because it was slow by default. i persume, a 1.5 dual core snapdragon s4 will do the trick. sp, maybe i wont even root it. if i do its gonna be when my warranty expires because im paying the full price for it.
2) i manage with 2gb sd card on my wildfire which is still half empty, i even have 512 mb ext... so thats about 1.2-1.3 gb pf usable space (you know memory is smaller than whats stated 2 gb ~ 1,8 gb) so thatll be fine, im not a smartphone gamer either so one memory hog less (im more of a playstation kinda guy)
3. battery can always be managed, i use my wildfire pretty much all the time on my almost 2 year old battery and i get day, day and a half of battery life, more when i use it less .
all in all, looks like one s is the one ive been waiting for

Perfect for you then, it really is an awesome phone, i managed to get my hands on one the other day for half hour, the screen looks amazing and its lightning fast after using a buzz for so long but for those reasons above i can't get one and am thinking/dreaming of an s3 if they'll give me one!

If you are looking for Proper Unlocked bootloaders and Dev Support, Samsung is not much better off from what I have seen so far. Apparently, everything is "hacky and dirty". There is no proper recovery partition, so even a CWM recovery has to be integrated into the kernel. You cant flash a recovery by itself. Also, no things like Fastboot. You have to depend on Samsung softwares like Odin.
Also, Samsung's coding is terrible from what the dev's have been saying. They use unstandardized coding techniques, and its a pain to reproduce the same features on AOSP / Other ROMs. The Galaxy S2 did not get a build of AOSP ICS till a leaked official GS2 ROM was out.
I agree on Point 2 and 3 though. They are great exit tools for when you mess up your phone. Think about it, when you experience a bootloop, what is the 1st thing that comes on your mind? A battery pull, obviously.
BTW, Dump the S3 and get the S2. With the price drop after the S3 was announced, this phone is now terrific VFM. Still nothing that can't be run on this device.

J/k, anyway, excellent choice. I prefer the One S myself over the One X.

Thanks for the info 3, i hadn't really read much about Samsung coding either to tell the truth just saw the amount of dev support you guys have over there and presumed it must be slightly better, I know i'd probably love an sgs 2 coming from here but if the 3 ends up with as much support for it do i really want to be stuck in a 2 year contract and miss out on all the fun with a 2 knowing there's a 3 out there, just out of reach.
Decisions decisions............... Still my carrier might not give me one though so may be forced into a sgs2.

so far.
well ive had the phone for a few days and i have to say im loving it
the screen is sexy and silky smooth, and not to mention big enough ^^ from opening it it took me 7 minutes to s-off with revolutionary ive gotta say touch recoverys rock!!! they are themeable and everything, 4ext for the win lol
i have made the jump to ics in the form of the android revolution HD rom by mike1986 im missing the boot into recovery option from the the power off menu, but im hoping to find a work around for that being able to unlock with my face alone is epic and the download speeds im getting from giffgaff is very nice.
im very very pleased with this device atm and i would highly recommend it. and if **** hits the fan, you can always battery pull!

Good luck with your new phone
IMO the GS3 is terrible. All the fancy software is useless because I'll put CM9 on it as Touchwiz is absolutely disgusting. Their coding is terrible as 3xeno said and the UI is worse than Cupcake. The specs are mediocre, the AT&T One X's S4 chipset is better IMO. The screen is also mediocre, they made it 0.8 of an inch bigger than the One X to show off. And the rumours were so off, especially the 1080p screen. The nature lockscreen is a cool idea but the ripple effect is just too much time, especially when you just want to unlock the phone quickly and make a call.
