    headphones with controls

    So my current headphones (iphone headphones WITHOUT volume buttons, just a mic) gave out and ever since I left my blackberry for the tbolt and android, I've missed dearly the volume buttons controlling the next/previous track, and the custom mute/pause button. I've been doing some looking...

    Selling your phone post tiered data

    So for all of us to keep our unlimited data packages going forward which I think is crucial for 4g users (I consistently go just past 2GB), we can no longer use our upgrades anymore. Therefore, the best way to do this will be to sell your tbolt, and hope that the difference between the new...

    Help Skype on Sensation?

    Has anyone tried getting skype on the sensation yet with the market app? I remember the whole debacle with the tbolt and skype and how it wasn't using the front camera. But now it's all good because we can just download a leaked copy of it and it's all good.

    Just played with the phone

    I went into the tmobile across the street at work during lunch today to play wit this phone. I must say that THIS is how the thunderbolt should have felt. The phone is the same length and width as the tbolt but it is noticeably thinner and lighter which makes it the perfect phone to hold. The...

    Help What happened to the kickstand?

    So it appears this new HTC phone will have no kickstand (and neither will the evo 3d). I have the Tbolt right now and personally love having the kickstand. Wouldn't say i use it all the time but it comes in handy when the time is right. My gf wants a new phone, and the sensation makes the most...

    Why is this phone being released?

    Am I the only one that wonders why is this phone even being released at all? 1. The specs on this phone are worse than the htc thunderbolt (personally I prefer sense any day). Less ram, less internal storage and the Tbolt came with a 32GB sd card that costs actually a good amount on amazon...

    Best Video Chat for Tbolt

    Has anyone done significant video chatting with their tbolt yet? I've seen a lot of apps out there but think most of them aren't compatible with the tbolt yet or aren't compatible with iphones.

    Kickstand

    Can we have a moment of silence and pay tribute to the ingenious engineering that is the kickstand. *Moment of silence*. I gotta say that the kickstand was probably the best idea ever created for a cell phone given how easy it is to impliment. My phone is next to my monitors at work stood up in...

    Anyone else wish the text box was smaller?

    Anyone else notice when you type a text message/email, the message box is huge and when it is combined with your keyboard, you can only see like 1 or 2 entries of the conversation? Think this must be a HTC sense thing because on my previous atrix, the message box was just a single line, maybe 2...
