With my ebay bucks certificate it made it 8.57. I couldn't resist. I got the black one with the white trim on front. Looks nice. Thanks OP, nice find.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
despite the backwords design of the Cyclops its still one of my favorite evo cases. i personally don't have a problem accessing the charger port and I've never tried using the headphone jack before. I agree the design of the openings could be better though.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
the monoprice micro usb cables won't fit in many cases, you need to find a cable with a smaller head (inset **** joke here).
[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
I've tried other micro usb cables. Some like the motorola spn5400a, the htc oem, and rocketfish charging cable will fit. But most of the other cables don't fit with the Ballistic HC's cover flap design at the bottom. Ballistic should have opted for a rectangular size instead of a trapezoid.
[EVO 4G Accessories] rebel29535:
No problems getting the USB cords in. There's a good 1/4" around the USB port top and left side so I would think most will fit
[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
Are the headphone jack and bottom connector port coverflaps easy to open and close?

On the Trident Cyclops, the coverflaps are flush/even-level with the rest of the case so they're a pain to open.

Do the cover flaps stay firm closed? Or are they a little floppy?
[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
My eBay case just arrived this afternoon. So shipping was pretty quick.

The eBay case is mostly good. Some quick notes:

1) The integrated screen protector is lightly frosted/glazed. So there's some anti-glare. The screen protectors on the Ballistic HC and Trident Cyclops are clear. I prefer clear screen protectors, even in/under bright light.

2) The screen protector on the eBay case sits slightly raised, about 1-2mm. There's some travelspace from the screen protector to the the EVO's screen.

3) The case fitting resembles the Otterbox Defender. But it's harder to pry open the eBay case with just your fingers. I had to work a screwdriver between the seams to open the case. The Otterbox Defender you could just open with your fingers. The loosest fitting was with the Trident Cyclops.

4) The volume and power buttons are raised about 2mm. Same as on the Otterbox Defender. Very easy to press the buttons. On the Ballastic HC, the buttons are recessed. On the Trident cyclops, they're level with the rest of the case.

5) The headphone jack and bottom connector coverflaps are easy to open. Not as firm of a grip as on the Otterbox Defender though.

The bottom connector port has enough clearance to be compatible with a wide range of cables. For some reason, my Monoprice micro usb fits loosely. It's easy to snag the cable and dislodge it. The HTC OEM micro usb cable had a much firmer grip.

The headphone jack easily fits my square credit card reader with the eBay case. With the Ballistic HC, the connector on the square reader isn't fully seated/connected.

6) The eBay case is 1/4 inch shorter in length and height versus the Ballistic HC.

7) The eBay case lack the mesh grill covering the speakers on the front and rear to keep out dust and sand. The Ballistic HC has those covers.

8) The eBay case lacks the vinyl covers for the camera lense and flash.
[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
I'm going back to my Ballistic HC cover.
[EVO 4G Accessories] adrian2pm:
so hows the material is it lint/dirt magnet?
[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
The material is 1-2mm thick -- pretty flimsy. I did notice that the eBay case attracted lint and dust pretty easily on the back. The case has openings in the front and rear speaker covers. So, expect the inside of the case to be a dust magnet as well.
[EVO 4G Accessories] rugedraw:
For $10, it's not bad (IMO). Linhpham2 posted a pretty accurate review. I will add that it is a bit difficult to access the pull down menu with this screen because of how close it is to the top of the screen. However, it is perfect for what I wanted it for, so I'm very happy with the purchase.
[EVO 4G Accessories] darkcr0ss:
I just got my case today and I ordered the #2 one with the red trim and so far I'm very impressed the only thing that is a bit but not marjoly terrible is the silicone but nothing that I can't get used to, other than that I am very happy with my purchase
[EVO 4G Accessories] funkl3:

Hey,

Does anyone know a way to boost the earpiece volume on the Nexus S, mine seems to be a bit low. I have have DSP manager and Voodo on my phone, but I haven't found any settings in those apps for the earpiece.

Thanks in advance for any help or tips,

Andres
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcrompton:
I was just getting ready to an identical post - I'm really surprised that this has not been a more common post thus far -- maybe I'm getting old and my hearing is suffering but given the other phones that I've had lately this is the worst one for earpiece volume in the last couple of years.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barmanham:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lambda30:
Isn't this an identical thread ? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1041712

As I stated there too, it could be a phone-related issue. Go to the store and tell them to give you another one. If that one is louder, then it was an issue with the previous phone. If it has the same issue, then ask for another one. This issue is present on many other phones, including Sony Ericsson's. Check Google for this.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostgoatX7:
Het everyone,

I tried lowering the volume in the middle of a call and then increasing it and it seems to fix the issue. Try it and let me know if it works for you.

Hey lambda30,

Thanks for the link, but that thread discusses headset volume not earpiece volume. DSP manager already supports boosting headset volume.

Regards,

Andres
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lambda30:
Oh, I didn't notice the difference between the threads, sorry, my bad. In that case, in my story, I had a problem with the earpiece, not the headset. So, I had a problem like yours, in this thread.

And no, lowering the volume in the middle of a call didn't change anything. The refund for the phone did, lol. :D

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Nerd019:
Wagedroid its a 2.2 rom ill post screenies when i get the chance
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Wagedroid:
Ok just wanted to know if I had to wipe before flashing. But I don't think I have the proper bootloader since it was changed for cm7. Anyone have input on this?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Nerd019:
what do you mean you do not have the correct bootloader? full wipe is required in order to flash this
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Wagedroid:
nvm i think a full wipe will be ok. will flash/test after screenies

Ok, just flashed it. Love the splash screen and animation! But is there an option to change the font of the text? it's kinda hard to read when you want to take a quick glance and go XD
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Nerd019:
txdeathray yes you can download an android font changer on the market for free called android custom font changer i know the name is long for an app but thats what you can use for the font :) choose from alot of fonts :) thanks for the good feedback as well message me on gmail if you have any requests or questions. :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
awesome, thanks man!

D'oh, it requires S-Off and I lost mine due to the recent official update. Can you tell me which file in the zip is related to font? I can try to switch it with another ROM's and see how it works.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Nerd019:
no problem galad you like the rom and one more thing flash rom first then theme and after that you can extract the cmparts from a cyanogenmod rom and install the apks to make your clock a different color and stuff :).
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
Alright, will give it a try when I have time.

Wait... shouldn't it be copy/paste files first then flash? Or you can do it only with adb push and pull? Sorry, just started to learn all these things XD
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Nerd019:
flash the rom and theme from recovery. make sure you put the files on the root directory of your sd card and after that enjoy :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
ok, just to clarify, i can install apks and fonts alike by putting the things i want in the root of my sd card. then find it and choose install, right?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Nerd019:
yes :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheKorbenDallas:
Does anyone know how to set up my own profile picture under CM7?

For example, if I go to SMS messaging interface, each message has a placeholder for the picture of the sender. The pictures of other people are, of course, taken from their profiles in the contact list. But messages sent from my phone just have an empty gray placeholder. How do I specify the picture to be used for my messages?

In HTC Sense ROM the address book has a special entry - "Me" - which is used as the profile of the phone owner and the picture from that entry is used with messages sent from this phone. CM7 has no such entry. What does CM7 offer instead?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
step one should of been to Search

that would of lead to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1026503&highlight=PROFILE+PICTURE
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheKorbenDallas:
Er... OK. So the last post at your link says

"Contacts - my contact card - menu - edit contact"

What does "my contact card" mean? There's no "my contact card" entry in contact list in CM7. There's no "my contact card" entry in contact list menu. :confused:
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
You have to create a contact card (person) for yourself. Then edit the picture within that contact point.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheKorbenDallas:
Well, I already tried that and it didn't work. If you simply create a contact card for yourself, it will only display the picture for incoming messages that you send to yourself. I.e. you send a message to your own phone number, then in the SMS list the incoming message will have the picture next to it, while the outgoing message will still have a gray placeholder next to it. Not very useful. So, no, simply creating a contact entry for yourself does not work (and the thread you found by search does actually state that "it didn't work").

I found the solution though. The key part is to go to "Settings -> Call Settings -> Additional Settings -> My Phone Number" and enter the phone number in that field. CM7 will find the contact with that phone number in the contact list and use the picture from that contact as your profile picture. Of course, the natural approach would be to create a contact entry for yourself and specify your own phone number as "My Phone Number" :D

P.S. It is surprising how many threads dedicated to this issue say that "you have to create a contact entry for yourself" and the authors of the original question immediately respond that "it doesn't work" (and it really doesn't) and the thread basically ends there without offering any solution. They "should of" (sic!) mentioned the key bit with "My Phone Number" setting! I hope this thread will serve as the complete solution for the issue.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleepyfu:
Glad you figured out. What you were seeing was sense dialer combined with facebook for htc. I have a feeling if you downloaded the official facebook app and synced the contacts, you will get the profile picture back. I can't prove it since i am not on aosp roms, and cant remember how its was when I had mt3g. Good luck. All and all its not a big deal, you know what yourself looks like.

Indeed, OpenSource seems to attract lots of "knowledgeable" bullshitters.

I keep moving my home screen icons (widgets) accidentally, like when I try to pull down the notification bar.

Would someone know of an app or setting that locks the icons once one configures the screens?

Thank you.
[HTC Inspire 4G] pside15:
Not sure of an app that does it but I'm running the Ultimate Droid ROM and it has a "lock desktop" option when you pull up the menu. It does exactly what you are looking for.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ThE SkEpTiK:
CM7 also has this option.
[HTC Inspire 4G] smielek00:
Guess time to change rom

On Revolution HD 4.0B all I see when click on menu are: all apps, notifications, personalize, wallpaper, ringtones, settings. And submenu on either has nothing on "locking".

Probably time to change, any suggestions for use on ATT?

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
just for clarity's sake - when you post a thread and ask a question, PLEASE let us knwo which rom you're using. it's different between launchers/UI's (ie sense, ADW, stock).

in sense, i don't know of an option to do this, however there is one in CM7 i think (which uses ADW)

You can tell I'm new :-), thanks.

I'm using Sense 2.1 built in the ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nightborne:
I haven't found an option like this in my Sense ROM (TPC Optimized atm, looking at ClearDroid). If I see anything I'll pass it along - this could be helpful too for when my 4-year-old accidentally closes Angry Birds and starts looking around on my phone.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heraSK:
i've had similar problem. let me say first that video recording worked great on unrooted device, then on rooted with stock rom, then on InsertCoin 2.0.1. rom, then back on stock rom (i went back with clockworkmod recovery), then again on Insercoin for a week or so...(don't ask, i did some experimenting :D:D:D)...

but then all of a sudden, after a full week on Insertcoin ROM, without me installing something new or fiddling around, out of the blue, video recording went loco. everything looked ok while recording but when playing video would pause every few seconds, then quickly catch on, then pause again, and so on...as if sd card couldn't catch up writing the video. but that couldn't be the case because everything worked fine before. i forgot to mention, both 720p and 800x480 recording didn't work...

i didn't try removing setcpu app and defragmenting sd card. instead i went back to unrooted stock rom and now everything works fine again. now i'm little tired to root and flash any custom rom over again. if anyone has the idea what went wrong please share...thx!

720p works fine for me. Maybe hardware issue?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heraSK:
i have some update on the stuff. today i uninstalled all apps i've downloaded since buying the phone, including the updates to it's native gmail and facebook apps. after that, i restarted the phone and voila, video recording worked again, smooth and steady.

so i went to install all apps again, one by one, and after each one i tried video recording again. the result was that after some apps video was recorded with pauses, and after some it wasn't. so i uninstalled those apps again and tried video recording, but it didn't help. then i went to install them back again but not in the same order as the first time. again video was fine after installing some apps and not fine after the others. but, it didn't pause after installing some apps for the second time, the same apps which i have installed the first time when video was recorded with pauses. so it seems it's not app related after all.

but, after so much installing and uninstalling it became clear that video recording worked flawlessly after each phone reboot. at some point after rebooting the phone video begun to record with pauses again. after some more testing i can confirm that this occurs after installing new (any) apps. as long as i don't install anything, video will record normally. i cannot possibly imagine what can cause such behavior, but for now it seems to be the pattern. i hope it'll help some of you with the same problem. but nevertheless this shouldn't happen at all. i have sent a ticket to HTC support, maybe they'll come up with a more permanent solution.
