You'll need capacitive rubber or foam. Can be found in various forms from tubes / cords to sheets. Apparently popular with the S&M crowd.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bucklee:
bad idea.....

Okay So I just had to return my htc flyer because the style pen scratch the screen. I would not suggest the pen without a screen protector or something like that.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] wingdo:
How is that even possible? Gorilla glass can stand up to most things except a stylus?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kcchen:
Hmmm... Yeah metal (back of stylus, which is what this thread is about) is going to damage "glass". I would highly recommend a screen protector... Keys, coins and rings are also likely culprits.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] torseni5t:
It is not gorilla glass and it scratches very easily...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] wingdo:
I know Corning's site doesn't say it (yet?) but almost every review of it talks about it having Gorilla Glass.

http://www.slashgear.com/tags/gorilla-glass/

I'd also find it hard to believe that considering almost every smartphone HTC now makes uses Gorilla Glass that their first and flagship tablet doesn't use it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] soatracny:
I tested the pen with my Flyer of course but it also works on ARCHOS 70 and on my DELL streak. All of them with protect screen...:eek:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] torseni5t:
So do I, and I wish it was. But my screen scratched ridiculously easily and in my experience it is nowhere near as robust or resilient as my other GG equipped devices....
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] deadlyheart4u:
yes the back is stylus , works welll
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MrHooper:
Are people really dumb enough to use metal on a glass screen? The suggestion I've read, to cover the back end with conductive foam (like from another capacitive stylus) is fine, but metal folks? Really? Just because something works does not mean you should do it;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] worksfine:
You are absolutely right about the screen protector. I tried using the other side of the pen and scratched the display pretty badly...I thought it was hardened glass but I was wrong :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Blu3Fr0g:
Nice find. I have some screen protectors on order, but since they are coming via a slow boat from China, there is no telling when it will get here.
[Desire General] caen1:
So far, I've only used AOSP ROMs (DevNull and Oxygen) since I rooted my phone. Personally, I like it better because I like simplicity, and the idea of a stock ROM appealed to me.

But there seems to be a problem with AOSP ROMs, the call delay issue. Although people say they hardly notice it, I get 3-4 seconds delay every time and I find myself going like "Yes. Hello. Hello? Are you there?" every time I answer a call. I've heard that the problem is AOSP-specific, because of some libs Google uses, and that HTC use their own libs which do not present this issue.

So yesterday I backed everything up and got ready to try LeeDroid. But after installation, I could not get the ROM to boot nor the SD card to mount. I eventually fixed the problem by repartitioning the SD card, and I'm now running DevNull. I'd also like to mention that I'm S-OFFed, was running CWM 3.1.0.1 and had the Oxygen HBOOT before installing the Stock one back.

Now, I'd like to know how I am supposed to correctly switch to a Sense ROM coming from an AOSP one, as well as some opinion as to which is the cleanest, reasonably fast Sense ROM available out there. Perhaps some thoughts on kernels, too.

Thanks in advance!
[Desire General] kriszg:
I am on RcmixS 1.6.2 at the moment and working well.

Do full wipethen flash the rom, that is it. Enjoy.
[Desire General] caen1:
I did perform a full wipe before installing.
[Desire General] mistaliu:
What version are you trying to install? At the start the GB version didn't like the newer versions of CWM, also hboot versions were an issue too. I haven't really been keeping up because I went back to 2.4.1 till an actual GB release. Check it out those might be causing you trouble.
[Desire General] caen1:
I've downloaded InsertCoin and I plan on installing it later today, as now I've got some stuff to finish. If it doesn't work, I'll try downgrading CWM. Thanks!
[Desire General] EddyOS:
You need to use the stock 250MB HBOOT - obviously a Sense-based ROM is too large for the Oxygen one
[Desire General] 3f1f37:
Try AuraxTSense, i have been back and forth between most of the Sense ROMS & this is the one i come back too.

ALWAYS
[Desire General] caen1:
I've given InsertCoin a try yesterday, but I didn't like it as it was way too laggy (as in I usually had to touch something twice for anything to happen).

I think I'm going to try each one today and see what I'll end up using. I'll post my opinions here.

@EddyOS I did use the stock HBOOT with LeeDroid, but I downloaded the CM7 version of InsertCoin.

@3f1f37 I'll give it a try, thanks!
[Desire General] aaa:
???

laggy? twice touching ?

Are you trying to touch things during the first minutes of the first boot after flashing??

Let the ROM settle about 5-10 mins after first boot, your phone will be blazing fast afterwards.

InsertCoin 1.0.7 CM7 (Gongerbread; Sense 2.1 + 3.0; 130MB) is one of the fastest and the most stable Sense ROMs currently available,I use it also.
[Desire General] ringer13:
I too felt it was very laggy. CM7 version, with CM7 hboot, 1GBext. even the typing was bad, had to retype messages because it would start to lag out and miss letters

i dont know what i could have done wrong to get such a horrible experience. maybe you can enlighten me?
[Desire General] caen1:
@aaa I've overall had a laggy experience even one day after installing it.

@ringer13 what ROM have you eventually settled to? Thanks!

I'm currently trying CoolD, or something like that, because the ZIP only has 144 MB. I also tried installing HiApk (it has 138 MB), but the download was damaged or something, it didn't pass the verification process in Amon_RA 2. But I will redownload it if I'm dissatisfied with CoolD.
[Desire General] ringer13:
cyanogenmod7 ive found most gb sense roms way too laggy so went with aosp
[Desire General] caen1:
I'll have to agree with that. My HiApk ZIP was corrupted and after booting CoolD, all I got was Force Close for all the apps, including the launcher.

I didn't bother anymore, so I went on and installed Oxygen 2.1.3. It works like a charm.
[Desire General] teoB_Glar:
Well it is true that u have to sacrifice speed, but the benefits from the sense are worthing the less smooth response, and mostly it is hardly noticeable...

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] aaa:
I know the speed comparison of AOSP and Sense, I have used both.

The only thing I have not used is MIUI...saw it on youtube, and hate it right away...

I know AOSP is always faster than Sense but Sense in generally especially InsertCoin is not so bad so that you had to touch things twice before getting any response.

Moreover, InsertCoin is one of the fastest Sense ROMs you can find.

If you had to touch everything twice until you got any response from your phone, check if you have massive processes on the background caused by any other apps/syncs or some problems with your SD card.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meatlocker:
In typical Sunday morning hackery fashion, I used Titanium Backup to freeze the stock Asus email apk so I could better get a handle on making Kaiten Mail the default. I am happy with the result, however the stock Asus email apk is now nowhere to be found. Titanium either tossed it or I made some other error.

Can anyone provide me with the stock email apk/widget? I'd like to at least have access to them should I want to roll back. Thanks in advance.

*and no, I do not have a recent Titanium backup...just the nandroid one before I installed Prime.

after pages and pages and multiple threads of reading i got even more confused and am quite lost due to the massive amounts of jargons so i hope that some of you are able to help me out.

i'm planning to change my rom to simply honey 3.5

am currently on a stock 2.2 froyo rom which is rooted and loaded with rom manager.

i've read the instructions

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1021383

but i dont really get much of it but am willing to learn.

my understanding is

1 - download simply 3.3 and flash it

2 - download simply 3.5 and flash it

done ?

do i need to sgs kernel flasher or odin ? where can i download those ? which is easier to use ?

do i need to flash a cf root kernel and where can i get that ? it says i need cfroot 3.1jvb, where can i get that ?

do i still need to disable lagfix or convert to rfs ? and how ?

even after i flash 3.3 i still need to change kernel ? doesnt it come with a kernel ready to be used and just to flash to 3.5 ?

sorry if i'm a nuisance and thank you in advance for your kind assistance.

hey peeps just wondering if anyone has or knows if it would be possible to change the internal sd card? im assuming the ram is soldered in and is linked in some way to the phone and wont be able to change but what about the internal sd?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomh235:
Not possible... Its not an sd card and also soldered in.

Just partition your sd to add a 1GB primary ext2 partition and then install link2sd. Means you can move any allocation and its data to sd card. You must be rooted though! Hope this helps!

T
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeinessex:
thanks for the reply mate. u sure its not a sd card? i could of swore most of the smart phones which have internal memory is a micro sdhc card. in this and the galaxy s it has a lil plastic bit where it is behind? i just thought with a class 10 8gb or something it would make the phone quicker and obviously not have to worry about moving things to external sd
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilWee:
I'm not 100% sure what you mean, but here's some theory: the phone got 2 storages: the internal storage of 1gb flash which is soldered and cannot be changed and the sd card for data/music/photo/whatever to store on. This micro sdhc card can be changed. Class 4-6 is okay and every micro sdhc card should work... hope i answered your question :-)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeinessex:
is the sd card you talking about the external one? i thought there was a internal sd card which you would have to take the phone apart to get to. thats the one i was thinking of changing. i know people have done it with the dell streak
[Nook Color General] animatechnica:
With cm7 I am able to use LCD density but soon as I install an OC kernel LCD density just locks up. Any insight on what of kernel should be used?
[Nook Color General] Cybore:
I had the same issues. In the end I just edited build.prop directly using root explorer.

Here's a writeup if you don't know how to do it (taken from android tablets):

LCD Density – icons and UI on rooted Nook Colors look terribly small. You can modify a couple of lines in a system file to change their sizes to your liking. Navigate to /system/ in the file explorer app of your choice, Root Explorer works best for me to do this. Mount the system folder as R/W (read write) and click hold “build.prop” and press “Open in Text Editor”. I recommend creating a backup copy of "build.prop" before editing it. Scroll down until you find the 2 lines that read

“ro.sf.lcd_density.xdpi=169.33333

ro.sf.lcd_density.ydpi=169.33333”. (on cm7 my build.prop doesn't have a x and y dpi, just a ro.sf.lcd_density)

Replace these two lines with “ro.sf.lcd_density=250”. Save the file, set the system folder back to RO (read only) and reboot to check out the new sizes. You can replace the 250 with the density of your choice. For reference, the Galaxy tab uses a density of 240. I personally use a density of 200. 250 looks nice, but cuts off the time and notifications icon and the Nook Library UI becomes pretty unusable. 200 shows everything on the notification bar, the Nook Library UI is still usable but still has larger icons and UI for Android than the default 169.3333.

Since I'm not allowed to post links I'm unable to post the source. Google "My tips and app recommendations for new rooted Nook Color users " to find it.
[Nook Color General] darien87:
I had the same issue. I downloaded Blade Buddy from the market and that worked for me. Under Advanced Settings it has "ro.sf.lcd_density" and "qemu.sf.lcd_density". I'm not sure which one you're supposed to use so I just set them both at 180 and it works for me.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amrit1986:
Hi

I took and backup of my rom to try a new one but wanted to go back to the old one. When I try to restore the backup through ClockWorkMod Recovery, it restores the system but when restoring data and PDU, ClockWorkMod Recovery restarts.

When I get to my desktop, all my icons are there but the apps themselves are missing along with a lot of other stuff.

Any idea why this might be happening and what I can do to restore my backup??

Thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameUnknown1:
I could give you a solution, but whatever happens, its not my fault!! :), because maybe CWM recovery did that for a reason.

But anyway...

Take the data.img file from your sdcard(in clockworkMod folder) and extract it (many programs out there that extract .img files, i use 'ext2explore')

Then make a flashable .zip file and flash it (make sure its signed, and has the right folder structure and updater-script code).

I've never dont this, but theoretically it should work.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Or, You could flash it via fastboot.

Place the same data.img in your SDK/tools folder, boot into fastboot & fire up your cmd window

fastboot flash data data.img

Again the same disclaimer applies, use at your own risk.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K Dotty:
I'm having the same problem and I tried to flash data.img,

"fastboot flash userdata data.img" ,

But it said my back was too large.

I'm gonna try the ext2explorer and see if that works.

@Andyharney post: yea, you could do it that way!, i forgot all about that method :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amrit1986:
Thanks for your help.

You must be right. There must be something wrong with the backup and that's why it isn't restoring and dont wanna risk breaking anything more.

Hey all .. I recently purchased a used evo shift and finally got it flashed and working on my sprint account. I keep getting an error 67 registration failure user name and password may not match.

Now let me tell everyone that I do not currently have a data plan... Only voice and text.

So is this error just from the phone trying to log into the sprint data network which I am not a member of? I assume that is the issue. If not please let me know.

If that is the issue is there a way I can disable the phone from searching for the data network. I have no need to have data as im pretty much surronded by wifi.

[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] mb-14:
Yea totally agree. But again even in WinMob 6.5 there are bugs..either its nt stable or else it slows down. So thats the problem. So in short I just want a ROM which is stable lite and extremely fast. Apps not an issue. And again I don't mind a 6.5 built ROM too :) Just that it should be totally bugfree.

I was sent an automated txt message saying I 'qualified for an upgrade', so, for grins and chuckles I called to kind of inquire. I think the lady was from India or something because I don't think she quite understood what I was asking but, she did inform me that their trying to upgrade all their customers to equipment compatible with At&t. She also informed me that equipment changes must be made before May 2012 when the conversion to At&t is complete. Startling news considering I thought the FCC is still mulling over the legal stuff and here I'm told the deal is already done.....sucks if it's true because I loathe At&t with a passion. Just thought I share this information with all of you. :(

Well the odd thing(s) I've noticed is a specific area where I used to get full bars of 3G has now reverted to EDGE service. I say odd because T-Mobile was the only 3G service in said area not even Verizon or Sprint had 3G. Now all of a sudden At&t pops up, which never did before.

I called again because I was curious about the LG G2X and I was told similar information regarding At&t and May 2012. I really am a tad concerned, anyone else have any info regarding this date? I don't mean to come off paranoid but, that's 2 people now that gave the same exact date.
