[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HmjFArBz:
I recently purchased the Defy as a secondary phone. I'll be taking it with me biking, running, hiking, to the beach etc etc. so for maximum security I want a soft gel case and a screen protector. Easier said than done... It seems to be impossible to find a soft(not rigid) gel case that meets my low requirements. ALL I want is:

1. Bright yellow, for visibility.

2. Non-translucent, increases visibility.

3. Malleable, shock absorbent.

4. Cheap, rather not spend 40€ on just a case.

I just couldn't find a single case that met these simple requirements! Not even 3 out of 4, heck 2 out of 4 was only possible by making huge compromises to the quality of he case.

In the end I purchased a red case and a hard cover just or kicks, just to see what it's like and a bunch of screen protectors. These should arrive any day now. So I guess I'm covered, but I would till really love to have a yellow, non-translucent and malleable case. So if anyone knows of one let me know! :)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] densets:
sand scratches gorilla glass? really?

my carrier advertise this phone as beach proof. those bastards
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranks1989:
Yes sand does scratch it!

And colour in my defy started to scale! Dunno how.I managed to convince the customer care for replacement else I would have been screwed...
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HmjFArBz:
Thatsthe reason I'm applying a screen protector. Kind of screws up the interaction with the device but at least it won't be covered in scratches.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scrannel:
Sand is a silicate so will scratch just about anything except possibly diamond.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Priyabrata:
Definitely the Screen Gaurd !!

HI

Do pick up a good screen gaurd, as it is prone to get a few scratches here and there even though it is gorilla glass- Personal Experience. :rolleyes:

And Yes- you MUST pick up a TPU or Silicone Gel Case. For MB525- Silicone Gel Case may be from Amzer is great- Keep it new for years! :)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spannerz:
I've just bought some screen protectors from a German seller (I'm in England) and they've fitted very well to my Defy+ and looks almost invisible.

However, I did order a 6 pack and wasted 2 before I got a good fit (lots of bubbles and dust first couple of tries!) but the third one went on very well and is almost invisible.

My Defy+ is only 1 month old and I noticed the screen had very tiny scratches where it had been in my coat pocket so I thought a screen protector was a good idea. I also used one of those hybrid rigid 2 part cases that has a rubbery coating but is pretty solid... fits well and I like it for such a cheap price BUT the rubber coating is pealing away quickly.

Ideally I want a Case mate but they're not sold in the UK anymore and the Otterbox doesn't get such good reviews... and both as really expensive!

I can't post links yet, the screen protectors are called 'Disagu Ultraclear' Item number: 250891215811 and the hybrid case is ebay Item number: 200732087730

update: Just bought an 'Amzer' rubber gel case from Amazon UK for £4.99, it fits quite well but a little loose at the edges of the screen. The S Line rubber TPU case I also have is a tighter fit and more solid but I don't like the styling of it, shame they don't make it plain looking.
[G Tablet Accessories] photohombre:
I thought I'd be mesmerized by my new g tablet - but I'm not. Without going into a lot of detail, one very new, out of box (but have box) ViewSonic g tablet, not modified in any manner. There is a skinomi black rear protective skin, a front skinomi screen protector (you might want to change it as there are a few bubbles as well as two or three yellow lab dog hairs), a brand new black "Clip" case (from our very own electronic crap) and a nice little black carrying bag (from amazon). The tab has no scratches and is in excellent condition. I've only had it a couple of weeks. All this $285 includes paypal fees and shipping to continental US ONLY.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boardindude:
My wife accidently dropped her Hero in a glass of milk. Now do I need to unroot it before filing an insurance claim thru Asurion?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 24601:
If it will turn on, yes.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boardindude:
Yeah, it turns on, but I just get a continuous bootloop. I figured they probably wouldn't like it very well if they see the CM7 bootscreen.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aiwetir:
Well you could just say you lost it, it's a white lie, you lost the functionality of it.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shelnutt2:
Just ruu it, it it's in a bootloop you can ruu it still.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boardindude:
Yeah, I can get into recovery. I'm downloading the latest RUU right now. They'll just see stock bootloop instead of CM7 bootload. :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] user7618:
Either that or put it back into the milk until it won't boot at all.

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Ginger-on-Hero action here!

Actually I thought that Asurion didn't cover liquid damage, you better check that.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herouser26:
Put it in a bad of rice to dry out. You might not have to make an insurance claim.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boardindude:
Believe it or not, I tried turning it on one more time before flashing the RUU n it started up just fine, been running ever since. So I might not even need insurance after all!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AspenTree:
I would. Better to be safe and unroot than for your insurance claim to be denied :)

But first get it to boot.

Swyped from my Super Hero!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bierce22:
your battery probably just needed to dry out but yes i would deffinitly file a claime after u unroot

[EVO 4G General] intheb0x:
like i know of mobile software like mobile spy or one other one, that doesnt show up in task managers or anything.

are these types of softwares still on the phone after wipe?

i know apps are deleted and stuff but im still not sure?

could it be possible that apps like this are embedded like a go-between and dont show up as typical apps?>

what would be a way of completely wiping the phone down from head to toe, not just a wipe in clockwork mod, but a complete wipe? just flashing a stock ruu?

i guess i can say im more paranoid about things, but my phone was lost, then recovered from police, now its back in my hands and everything just seems really funny about it all. they said it was recovered from a drug dealer who had been arrested.

i have not re-activated my phone and im using BB for the mean time.

ive even thought about selling it because it feels "tainted" lol

is big brother watching?
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
You have a police report that shows you didn't have the phone during the time it was stolen and returned. If your selling dope, use a prepaid phone that dosent require personal information that can be traced to you like straight talk, boost, virgin mobile, net 10, etc. 1st rule in dealing 101.

The carrier keeps records of texts and call history that can be obtained through a warrent. Phones can be wire tapped but I doubt someone would waste their time on a petty criminal. Some cell phones calls can be intercepted through a scanner.
[EVO 4G General] intheb0x:
lol im not selling or doing anything illegal, but a search warrant was used for the phone then it was given back to me. due to the person who had it and it being recovered when they were arrested.

after all that was done the serial number and phone number listed in the phone was mine. Thats how i was notified about it being found. But before that i had put it to auto wipe via htc sense.com but it never happened for whatever reason i dont know.

i work full time and have been for many years, im clean and legal.

but if i want to do something or make plans i dont want to be worried about using my phone in general and texting people.
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
I edited my post. I wouldn't worry too much about the phone or being held responsible for what happened while itbwas stolen. When they start charging car owners crimes that were committed while their car was stolen, then I'd worry.
[EVO 4G General] intheb0x:
Well ive looked into it, to go for past records, sprint has to be subpoenaed by a judge, its a whole huge process and extensive through sprints legal team in IL.

as for search warrant for the phone, its just to search its contents.

its more then all this though, im worried about some type of software being on the phone logging things.

like this

[EVO 4G General] intheb0x:
lol i had to google it myself....

[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Lol "if you're selling dope" #classic. Big brother is always watching you! Pre-paid is the only way. Back in the day when I used to work for T-Mobile I used to sell a prepaid phone every other day to a huge drug dealer lol. He changed numbers like clockwork.
[EVO 4G General] intheb0x:
i think im just going to get rid of the phone and get another android or something?
[EVO 4G General] scoobdude:
First off, reflash a new rom and clear all your caches.

2nd learn more about linux and look at your PIDs ;)

3rd change your number

4th understand you are using a google phone... its all recorded anyway DUH

5th if there is anything that cannot be seen via software than its hardware related like in the bios on a pc (think wake on LAN etc from back in the day)

Also you can get a record of the numbers texted by sending a certified and (i forget the term but you can get it done at a bank) letter to sprint.

If you really do not want to be tracked... get rid of you cell phone. Even then your car is tracked though traffic cams, your voice is picked up by random mics of other phones, laptops, BT devices, onstar etc.

Last but not least LOCK YOUR PHONE and/or encrypt your card!!!!!
[EVO 4G General] freeza:
Not a single one of you really answered his questions.

Let me try:

-I don't think software can remain on the phone after it's been wiped unless that software is part of the current ROM, on the SDcard as part of "apps2sd/ext", or of it's automatically synced by Google (Gingerbread).

-To be on the safe side, You could format the MicroSD card, flash another ROM (if rooted) and continue on.

-If the phone wasn't wiped by whoever had it and it was used while tied to your Google account, I'd probably either change the password or get a whole new one, and enable 2-step verification.

-Invest in remote software in the future that can enable you to track down/wipe/send commands to your phone from a remote location.

ive never seen one of those go for that low. they are worth at least $200+. **** i can still get $275 for my evo.
[EVO 4G General] intheb0x:
Not stolen, esn is clean. Im using it now.

The guy had it listed as a galaxy pro lol, only came phone and usb cable with the 16gb card.

sadly i see that the development section for the epic is nothing like the evo....

i got a super good deal.

Ive been trying all the various roms available, and have decided upon Oxygen 2.0.3 (now 2.1), but there is only the one small niggle that i miss from Sense.

This is the contact linking it does. Fair enough it has linked some of my contacts correctly, but in sense, i could also manually link a Facebook contact to a Google contact, etc, is this possible in these AOSP roms ?

Hi there,

Yesterday i just wanted to reboot my DHD, but Revolution HD 3.6 did not came back.

The screen went automaticly to HBOOT mode.

So after removed the battery for some time and put it back. Pressed power button and Hboot mode came again. Also found that can not navigate through the menu via VOL+/-.

Tried many times with no success. So tried to find some informations on this forum but did not find similar thread to mine problem.
[Desire HD General] Va_Alexander:
I don't know exactly, but maybe you have issue with VOL - button? mb it is 'stuck'??

I can't see other reason for phone to boot in HBOOT mode... if ROM is broken then it should load normally but then restart/throw error, dunno exactly it's behaviour if ROM is broken.
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
Power phone off by any method.

Hold vol- and press power.

Does this take you to recovery?

Also, please edit you thread subject to make it more specific. Obviously you're looking for help. "Need help" is hardly going to be useful to others.

Sent using witchcraft via XDA Developers Premium App.
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
Does not. Phone always goes to HBoot. Before I rebooted the phone everything worked perfect.

It happened when I woke up then I took the phone and turned on buzzer by pushing VOL+ button. After that Power button and "reboot". So rule out the possibility a problem with buttons

First I was thinking to edit the title later on as I had no idea how to name it. But it is not possible to edit the title. Sorry about my mistake

Informations on the screen:

ACE PVT ENG S-OFF

HBOOT-0.85.2007 (PD9810000)

MICROP-0438

HBOOT this section is highlighted (as actual mode?)

<VOL UP> to previous item

<VOL DOWN> to next item

<POWER> to select item

FASTBOOT this is also highlighted

RECOVERY

FACTORY RESET

SIMLOCK

SYSTEM INFO

IMAGE CRC
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
So if you select Recovery from the HBoot menu it restarts straight back in to HBoot again instead of going to recovery?

If that is the case I'm afraid you might have to select the Factory Reset option.

If that allows the phone to boot ok you should then be able to go back to recovery and restore a the last NAND backup.
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
The problem is that it is not possible to choice any option from HBoot menu.

Looks like VOL+/- are disabled. One post ago i wrote that HBoot is highlighted and Fastboot is highlighted. So if I click on power it should switch to Fasboot mode but it doesn't. Phone is stuck in Hboot mode.
[Desire HD General] Andy:
Do you know if you used jkoljo's Radio S-OFF tool? If so you can flash the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip and start from scratch.
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
Should I follow with this thread? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1054304
[Desire HD General] Andy:
No, that is for flashing radios. Find the downgrade thread and download the PD98IMG.zip from there. Is your handset branded?
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
is not branded and simlock free.
[Desire HD General] Andy:
You shouldn't need a goldcard then, just place the downgrade PD98IMG.zip on your SDcard and boot into bootloader.
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
Got PD98IMG.zip on SD card.

Restart the phone. Phone start loading the file than stuck again on parsing.

nothing happend with PD98IMG.zip.

Any Ideas?
[Desire HD General] Andy:
How long has it been stuck?
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
on this screen for 1 hour and bricked since Thursday
[Desire HD General] Andy:
Ok, So the PD98IMG.zip failed. Have you tried the 1.32.405.x RUU~.exe?
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
Did. no sucess. Error 170

no communication but on command: fastboot devices I have a respond :

HT0A5RXO0924

command: adb devices says nothing
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
Ok lads,

I see all known methods and tools doesn't work but does anyone have an idea how to kill the informations on screen that the phone been rooted? or kill it totally?

In this cause I'll be able to the risk and send this phone to repair.
[Desire HD General] Andy:
Ok, you can attempt to flash each component seperately within fastboot.

Unzip the PD98IMG.zip and move boot.img, recovery.img, system.img, radio.img to your SDK/tools folder.

Now use fastboot to flash these

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash radio radio.img
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
ok. trying
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
no success, see attachment
[Desire HD General] Andy:
What about,

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
the same. gets errors
[Desire HD General] Andy:
Thats odd, very odd. You've confirmed fastboot to be working with fastboot devices & you have ENG S-OFF.

Ok, last ditch attempt. Do you have another SDcard? Format that if you can and switch with the card in your phone. Then attempt fastboot again.
[Desire HD General] 7agan:
have stock SD card from Samsung.

Formated than fastboot with the same results.

My explanation is that this is a hardware issue, maybe can not read Flash memory or some bad sectors?.
[Desire HD General] Andy:
I must be hardware. You've exhausted everything I can think of. I would suggest sending a PM to jkoljo, if he can't fix it nobody can.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whoareyou:
Hey, I might be getting a Nook soon, and I has wondering, would it be worth my time to try and port the HTC Flyer ROM? Due to hW diffs?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manchucka:
Perhaps ask yourself these questions:

1) Are you able?

2) Does this particular ROM offer anything compelling beyond stock Honeycomb? If not, might your efforts not better aid other efforts to bring stock HC to the NC?

You might ingratiate yourself with other developers and tinkerers (among whom I cannot count myself) by providing more details about your aims and your capabilities, especially after you peruse these forums to ascertain the number and scope of existing projects.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whoareyou:
1.) Yes, I am

2.) The Flyer is stock Gingerbread
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luigi90210:
as manchucka said

if it doesnt offer anything over stock HC than help port HC first

or at least if you dont want to port that than you should port the Gtab UI(idk what it is called) because it offers a better tablet environment on a stable 2.2 base
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lafester:

please port asap.

It's not that we doubt his skills, but if it can't be done, it just simply cant be done. I heard that is wasn't possible to port the HTC Sense roms to non-HTC devices. But I am not a developer.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h8rift:
Samsung galaxy phones have had a sense port and so have other non-htc phones. It just takes alot of time and you MUST have the source code from both the source device and destination device, and patience.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luigi90210:
well last time i checked the motorola droid had sense running but the radio didnt work(so no calls or data)

[Acer Iconia A500] xo96:
Just got the A500 this week, extremely excited. Coming from my EVO the Honeycomb works similar, but different than my smartphone (CM7). One thing I'd noticed, is that none of the current Froyo/Gingerbread video player will play .RMVB files on this tablet.

Does anyone has a solution? Or I'm just whacked out? Thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] Neoprimal:
The general consensus is that as of right now Honeycomb on these tablets is only playing certain profiles of media and file types. For me, mp4s encoded at 1080p and under play but some are stuttered while others aren't. This has to do with profiles which I don't know the details about (there's a post somewhere around about it, either in here or in the Eee Pad Transformer section).

Now personally (so this is speculation), I think Tegra 2 can play everything so we just have to wait for updates to enable it all. Forget playing anything right now from your collection OR you can always encode your stuff to the specifications of what the tablet will run nicely now...which is, /shrug.
