seen and touched both before...barely there is not as appealing as you think...and the protection is very minimal...if you put side by side with tough..no doubt tough looks and feel much better...it add some thickness to it for better gripping

silicone inner case with a hard plastic outer case

updating now..probably is for the security loop hole last time

read this

try turn off the phone and reinsert the casing..its probably problem with static..the reason you may be able to use w/o the casing is probably because the static have not being build up enough to affect the screen yet...many people got it fixed by pulling the grounding pin tho...since you've recently changed to a new back case, maybe you could clean the contact on the new back case or to press it firmer when u re-install the back case.

every phone also have some problems...this is inevitable...even the overated SGSII also have alot of problems...yellow tint screen, Burn in after a few months of usage, pink spot camera, just to name a few...and their customer service aint exactly the best also...if compared to HTC, i would choose a HTC any day compared to the iphone copycat.

maybe you could re-calibrate the battery by:

1. drain the phone's battery dry and let the phone turn itself off.
2. wait for a couple of minutes, and switch it on again.
3. repeat the 2 steps above until the phone cant turn on no more.
4. then charge it until it full.

After the process above, use it normally, you should feel that the battery consumption is very high. It will become normal again after a week or so..

Added on November 26, 2011, 4:15 pmin normal circumstance, it should work even without the casing, i believe if you use it long enough without the casing, the static will eventually build up and you will have the weird problem again. Since you have the problem right after you sent it in, maybe you should re-send it to them and be specific regarding the problems you faced. Maybe you could turn it off, pull the battery up and leave it overnight? It should leave the phone plenty of time to discharge the static.

have you been using the facebook app? If so, then restart your phone and dont use the app. Dont even sync the facebook app. just manually sync ur stuff

2xxmb is shared to your graphic memory

i doubt it is a problem, maybe the phone saved some battery for the clock..

does your definition of rebooting is where the HTC screen came out and a "loading" came out? And it happens right after u played some intense game or running multiple tabs in browser?

does it have the startup chimes? the HTC chime? IF it doesnt, then it is not considered as a reboot, it is only the HTC sense reloading. The cause of this is when the phone is running low on memory, it will kill some of the application or even the HTC sense to free up some memory to speed up the running process.

since you only had it for like less a day, better bring it back to where you bought it

tht is what we all would refer to as a con job...

never knew flickering of text is caused by the resolution, i believe only those having AUO screen are having the problem i guess, cause i never did experienced that thing you mentioned. SGSII uses amoled too..but it is prone to burn in after months of usage, and most of the devices have a yellow tint on the left side of the screen, not to mention the pink spot camera..would rather get a LCD with poor angle view instead of the burn in and yellow tint. The creak is probably there for the battery to expand overtime. I believe the XE does not have the problem because the newer revision battery is thicker than the regular one. SGSII have poor ergonomic design and is not very pleasant to hold. Not to mention the mechanical button that will die or degrade over time like Iphone 4.

WVGA and QHD, hence the thickness, the aspect ratio is different. sensation is on a 16:9 while sgs is on 4:3, and sensation display appear to be longer too

it is going to be bad for the first few charge cycle..give it a week or two..it is one of the characteristic of lithium battery

Li = lithium

yes it is normal, because the glass is curved, mine have like plenty of air bubbles near the capacitive buttons..however it is still possible to stick it perfectly, well not perfectly but with very minimal air bubbles.

voice navigation is 30days trial..after 30 days u will only get the navigation but no more voice
