    Post Audio Quality?

    I am quite happy with the sound quality, on the other hand I wouldn't say it's perfect. I typically use cheap headphones, but I also own a pair of high-end headphones that I use sometimes. I think it depends on your listening volume. I tend to listen at quite high if not maximal volume levels...

    Post Moving from Windows Mobile to Android (HTC Sensation)....Data connection

    Switch to pushmail, saves you quite some data transfers and is more effective in the end. I have two hotmail addresses plus oen gmail on pushmail and I don't notice any more battery drain with data connection permanently on.

    Post [Q] wanna buy a sensation: standby battery drain experiences

    I'd say my Sensation on stock ROM consumes about 5% during the night, that's about 8 hours in my case. The battery is 1580 mah. So 5% of 1580 would be 79 mah. Divide that by 8 hours and you get about 10ma standby drain.

    Happens to me all the time when in landscape. Seems to work fine in portrait however, even though it is actually 3 or 4 chars to the right of the actual position... Annoying!

    Post Tips for new htc sensation user

    For question 5, an alternative to Tasker would be PhoneWeaver by SBSH. I think it's quite good, but there is still room for improvement. Another possibility that I personally don't like is LAMA. Yet another possibility is Locale. I haven't tried it yet, and I think it's gonna be quite expensive...

    Post NOOB GUIDE: Some important keywords (Please contribute)

    Isn't it the thingy that makes your phone boot faster, by whatever means? I thought when Fastbood is enabled, your phone is not really turning off when you turn it off, or rather it boots up very fast compared to when fastboot is disabled. I CAN send adb commands to my phone, even though I have...

I am still quite new to Android, and I have come across very many technical terms that I didn't or sitll don't understand, mostly related to rooting your phone. I am not aware if some of these terms...

    Post Delayed Push Notifications

    Interesting idea, push mail doesn't work for my device at all while using WiFi. But are you sure that push mail actually causes the server to establish a connection to you? I thought you establish the connection yourself and simply keep it alive until the server decides to send you some data...

    Agree with that, Epinephrine is quite good. IM+ is very nice as well, but files are uploaded to their server with this one... I hate that. I want my files sent directly. Epinephrine can do that, but only pictures and sounds I believe. Not TXT files, APKs, whatever. MSN Messenger: Mercury Free...

    Post Flashing HTC Sensation with original ROM?

    You'll have to wait for HTC to unlock the bootloader (or for AlphaRev to do that before HTC). Expect HTC do provide the full unlock in September. PS. I bought it unbranded meanwhile.

    Post What if OTA UPDATE Hit's - Before Alpharevx Exploit/S-0FF

    HTC is actually UNLOCKING the bootloader, not trying to lock the phone. Wait for 2 months for that to have happened. Rejoice if AlphaRev is earlier, if you want.

    Thanks a lot for the APK, I couldn't find it on the market. I will try it soon. It takes up the whole screen though, right? Folder organizer also looks somewhat useful, but I'm not sure if it is what I want. Will also try that. Extended controls doesn't really look like a launcher from the...

    Post [Q] Looking for a good launcher that isn't a launcher

    Yes, and I think its quite good, but it doesn't allow for very many icons. 8 will still look fine, but that's about the upper limit. Plus, its cumbersome that you have to tap twice - once to open the circle and once to select the app. It doesn't react instantly. Yes, but Elixir has like ten...

    Hi folks, I'm looking for what I'd call a "launcher". But I DON'T want a Sense-Replacement like ADW, SPB Shell or things like that. I'm looking for a WIDGET that allows me to place app shortcuts. Like Multicon. Unfortunately, Multicon has only 1x1 to 1x4 vertical widgets, but no horizontal ones...

    Post [Q] Anyone else get a headache?

    SAR level is not very informative. If corresponds to the PEAK value measured, not the average. If a phone transmits at 0.1W/kg for an hour and for 1 second, for whatever reason, jumps to 10W/kg, then the SAR will be 10. Not really appropriate, is it?

    The phone is necessarily branded if you see any sign of your provider anywhere, unless that sign comes from your SIM. But this is obviously not the case for the shutdown-screen.

    Post [Q] Do you get unread counters on mail shortcuts?

    I only have the general Mail icon, not a shortcut to an individual Inbox since I'm using only one Emailaddress on my mobile. That Icon shows the number of unread messages. Not sure if that's what you'd want, it would probably show you the sum of unread messages form both accounts.
