[Q] You will buy the Sensation, what are you waiting for?

[Darnell_Chat_TN]

This is ONLY for you who do plan to buy the Sensation. Are you going to buy day 1 no matter what? Waiting to see if the initial reviews are good, but not for it to be rooted and bootloader unlocked? Waiting for it to be rooted and the bootloader unlocked? Waiting for root, unlocked bootloader and S-OFF? Let's see the figures in a poll .

I'm waiting for at least the Sensation to be rooted and the bootloader unlocked.

 

[Darnell_Chat_TN]

Of course "bootloaded unlocked" should read "boot loader unlocked" .

Just waiting to see the initial reviews. I am hoping to see that there is no sort of LAG and good battery life(at least full day of average usage per charge). Also a good GPS is a must for me. I really dont care about the benchmarks like most the people. I want to have a solid working phone with no reception issues, no bleeding issues and no software issues. I am sure that some devs would be getting this phone and before we know it would have root and more. For now I cant wait to see some real world reviews of the final product!

Day 1 I'm calling up CC to get it hopefully with a 1 year extension for $50 more than the 2 year price.

I can live without s-off but I can't without root & unlocked bootloader. I really hope this baby will be cracked or I'll be forced to keep my Desire a few more months. :/

Im sure it will be cracked. Alot of devs will be getting their hands on this phone. Seeing as its going to be the first dual core htc phone for tmobile. The question is how long will it take to be cracked. People thought the g2 was a lost cause but it happend.

Same here for calling customer care asap when released. Not worried about the bootloader cause I'm sure something will come along that will allow custom Roms. If not, well I'm currently running sense 3.0 port on g2 and it's freaking awesome. Now throw in much better hardware sound make for a great experience.

i'm drooling to have this but i need the price to drop, otherwise i will get the Nexus S

 

[DSensation]

I think I won't wait and I'll just read reviews but lemme ask you.. what's so bad in HTC's rom at all or in the boot loader? (not that I know what it is.. never had Anroid so this is going to be the first hopefully)

 

[kfgtboypsp]

I live in the US. But the UK will be having it first on the the 18th if im not mistaken. I have at least june 8th to decide. "HOPEFULLY" when it lands on the US itll be rooted and an unlocked bootloader. But either way im getting it.

 

[redbullcat]

I'm 90% sure it will be cracked, so I'm buying on day 1. Selling my two current phones (Desire HD and Galaxy S i9000) to get it.

 

[Trekest]

I already ordered mine on Handtec. Hopefully the idiotic customs bureaucracy we got here in Israel won't delay it too much.

has it said anywhere what the price will be? I'm hoping it'll be $200-250

 

[Omicron90]

Already pre-ordered mine

Given the developments in Sense 3.0, I'm not too worried if it gets unlocked or not, but I guess it would be nice if the community found a way into it!

After buying the samsung i8910 day 1, without reviews, I've decided to wait for some initial reviews from now on to prevent making bad decisions again.

What is S-OFF really?

please tell me.. I am quite a newbie sorry:$

 

[dillingerdan]

Play.com put this up for pre-order @ £499.99 in the UK. Tracked £17 odd cashback on my TopCashback too. Not too bad. Really hope S-OFF Can be achieved, but not a massive deal, I have 2 other phones I can mess with custom roms on, and switch between them all. But I'd imagine the XTC clip should be able to do it, if it can for the IS and DS.

Me too.

Pre-ordered mine from play.com this morning, unlocked. They've got a date of 30th June.

I bought a G2x, returned it for another one, it too was plagued by the random reboots, so I returned it and got a Nexus S... Which due to my poor planning has to be returned by June 3rd... so, I am going to resort to borrowing a G1 for a few weeks so I can have the Nexus S money back in hand come release-day for the Sensation.

I'm not sure what people are all freaked out about - the MT4G and G2 didn't get unlocked for several weeks after their release. Give the XDA masters a chance to work their magic
