[Epic 4G Accessories] Bizz08:
Ok I've decided to stay with the Epic.. would like to root it and install a custom rom possibly soon but thats besides the point.. I was seeing if someone would be so kind as to recommend me a good case, screen protector and maybe extended battery... was thinking about going to go look for some of these things locally but am trying to save $ so not sure if thats a good idea... any input is greatly appreciated....
[Epic 4G Accessories] jiffyunderground:
The Epic 4G is a pretty good phone to stay with if you ask me...well at least until the Galaxy S2 iteration comes out.

Case: Otterbox Commuter - I've had 2 cases for the Samsung Epic (Whatever Seido Best Buy Branded Case that Best Buy Sells, and the Otterbox) and the Otterbox wins hands down. The Otterbox is about the best protection you can get.

Ext Battery: No clue because I haven't had a reason for one.

Screen Protector...Don't need one, thats gorilla glass but if you insist then I would recommend Skinomi TechSkin due to its just as good in my experience as the Zagg invisible shield but cheaper.

And if you are looking for a good stand or car windshield mount I recommend the clingo products.

All of these things can be found easily on Amazon.com.

-Jiffy
[Epic 4G Accessories] xbiker321:
Is this true on the screen/screen protectors? Not needed? I have a cheap on I got off eBay and it's showing some wear. Kinda worried to just rock the bare screen.
[Epic 4G Accessories] boutwell:
I sprang for a Zagg and after reading how many people were going without here, I ripped it off. Could not be happier and have not had a single scratch.
[Epic 4G Accessories] stir fry a lot:
Good choice on keeping the phone, a good rom like Syndicate paired with an Otterbox case make for a great phone. Once you're rooted make sure to flash Impaler's keyboard fix. Don't bother with screen protectors as the Gorilla Glass is fine as long as you keep it in a different pocket than your keys and loose change. Mine survived a ten foot slide, face down on concrete and came out without a scratch. Its not as scratch proof against sharp/abrasive metals however.

As far as extended batteries go I would recommend just picking up an extra stock one like this.

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Stand...6TQ8/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1304980990&sr=8-5

You can buy the Otterbox now for $8+shipping or do what I did and use Auctionsniper. I picked mine up for $7 shipped. Sprint stores also sell them for $19.99

New market is supposed to automatically update right, its still the old one
[HTC Incredible S] letmedanz:
yep noticed that. the market is still the old version.

my guess is that the market will update once the firmware update is out.

anyone who has updated to GB can confirm this?
[HTC Incredible S] vido.ardes:
When I bought the phone, it came with the old market but it updated itself within 10 minutes
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Yes for me too ... Open the market and play around with it for a few minuteds ... It will auto update ...
[HTC Incredible S] dco717:
It stayed old for like 2 days then I cleared data and force closed restarted and it can up as the new market

[A7 General] mrpete2u:
Ok, so last week I opened my A7 case and turned it on. When it powered up I could see 4 cracks running across the middle of the screen - the narrow way - all the way across.

It show's no evidence of cracks until powered up. I can see a little color bleeding around the cracks also.

Only part of the screen shows a picture - but with alot of lines.

The touch screen still works.

Does anyone know if the screen just unplugs and is replaceable?

I have read that it is the same as an Archos 70 screen.

Will I have to get a screen and a digitizer?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. No answer from Elocity yet.
[A7 General] smallba:
Looking through the teardown(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=940323) it doesn't seem to be the easiest task to replace the screen unless you feel comfortable doing so, if you bought it brand new I would get registered for a warranty, give elocity a call and see what they can do for you. Good Luck

ddoes anyone know if there was/is/will ever be a whatsapp program for WP7? i used to use this a lot when i had android on my WP7 and i do miss it. the website mentions that it is cross-platform, but doesnt mention anything about wp7 (or windows mobile for that matter) i have read a few articles about adress book integration being the issue, but may other things such as whatsapp not having any wp7 developers, and a beta versions with no contact integration, but i dont trust any of the sources :P

so i am wondering if the good people at XDA can clear things up :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] welki1979:
According to the developers of WhatsApp there are no plans to support WP7 until various aspects of the OS are changed/updated. It's to do with the way apps are run on the OS.

Because WP7 apps are run in a 'sandbox' style environment WhatsApp cannot access the WP7 built in contacts app etc so the developers are waiting for that level of functionality before creating the app.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] matthewharmon102:
that was what i had read elsewhere. there were some suggestions about pulling the contacts direct from windows live via a http request, but not being a developer i dont know how this would work. i guess i will just have to wait and see
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Tom_H_:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Fabian1985:
I just saw on the Whatsapp homepage that they are looking for a C+ progammer/debugger. So that could mean they will soon work on a version for Windows Phone!:D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] martinkwright:
Here is to hoping

The missing piece for me on the Window mobile platform is only Whatsapp. Once this is sorted, and I hope that Mango does what it needs to for the developers at WhatsApp, I'll then ditch iOS and Android.

Does anyone have "connections" to any of the developers at WhatsApp? I wish they would communicate their intent.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] tv:
Yes, Whatsapp should provide some updates on whether a WP7 app is being made.

Also Microsoft should pull their socks up with WP7. It's been utterly disappointing. I've thrown more money to Apple to use the iPhone because of Microsoft's poor execution of the WP platform.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] chiragpatwa:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Anicio38:
Installed and quite satisfied ... maybe this beta it's at an early status of development, missing many functionalities already present in the other available platforms, but I think that beta 1.0 is surely better of ... nothing, isn't?

BTW, has someone tried to add a sound effect when receiving a message?

Is it possible to change in any way the status message?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koflem:
Hello everyone,

I recently flashed CM7 and everything went well, it runs smooth and everything works as far as I tested... However, Kies is a b*tch :mad:. As expected, it no longer recognizes my phone, but the problem is : I have done a backup of all contacts I had, and now I can't get it back, since they are stored in a 2.2gb (along with loads of videos, pictures, etc.) .sbu file that kies won't touch unless I plug a "i9000m" phone in it.

So, is there any way to open those .sbu backup files or to retrieve the information stored in them? I guess if there's no other way I could flash back to stock ROM, restore with kies, find another way to backup and then reflash CM7, but I really don't feel like it :(...

By the way, I also have a CWM backup from before the flash that I could use, but I'm not sure if it would work with CM7. If I only restore "data" will I get those contacts back? and will it mess up my phone because of CM7?

Thanks for the answers :)

Edit: Ignore this, the contacts are actually in a separate .spb file... So, how do I open/use that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paintball23456:

As far as I can tell the best you can do with a Stock ROM is add small things like widgetsoid notification widgets or download themes for launchers. However, if you have senseHD you could download sense skins.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shortlived:
Thats kind of a oxymoron stock mod? Do you mean what can you do without root? Every rom is a modified stock rom. They are just all different degrees of modification. What do you want to do is the real question.

Like can I metamorph the stock rom? How would I remove apps I do not need?

sure you can, but you have to be rooted. you can mess with any rom if you have the capability to edit the files you need to edit, but in order to do so, you need root access.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koreanjhee:
I'd like to think I'm pretty handy with this, having done it once or twice myself.

But..

In trying to install honey rom for vibrant, it did a full wipe of the phone, internal sd and external as well, and I lost ALL the music, photos, videos, and Backups.

I tried to reboot into honey rom, only to find that the phone can only get to the boot screen. I've already let it sit for hours, it does not load up.

I can go into recovery, but there are no backups to recover, no new roms to set up, and no way of getting into the phone to mount to my computer.

In my recovery, there's an option to mount the phone: I mount and the computer sees it but won't let me in; I can also boot into download mode.

That's great, koreanjhee, you can just odin in!

I've stock odined before so it's not like I can't use that method, except for the fact that in download mode, odin DOES NOT recognize my phone. Only in download mode does it not read.

On my computer, it flat-out doesn't recognize, and on another, serial usb (er something) won't recognize.

Scoured the forums, find some info. I haven't tried samsung pc studio yet, will someone post the links up for me please? And anyone with advice to saved my (bricked? :P) phone?

Hi guys,

why are the touch buttons of smartphones illuminated? Because you have to see them when you want to press them. Why the hell do the buttons of the O2x get dark after some seconds after the unlock/last press, and turn on again after you have pressed them. I need them backlit when i want to press them, not after i have pressed one of them.

I want them backlit all the time the screen is on - like my desire hd.

Ive already permanently dimmed them with modacos app, so batterie shouldn`t be an issue.

Maybe theres already a thread, an app for that reason or even a system setting, unfortunately i have found none of them - so if theres a solution for that please, please help me.

thx ;)

Typing Mode means, Observe what happen when you do,

1. Go to dialer see the white section where you want to remove.

2. Press any dial pad number and see that section change its look.

Tell me in both situations how you want it to look like, Then i will customize it that way.........

If you have adb installed these steps can help you (no need to delete existing);

Acquire SU rights then mount;

1.	adb shell

2.	su

3.	mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system

Copy modified APK to SDCARD Root 1st;
