[Thunderbolt General] iLLusive_:
I totally enjoy music collection as much as the next person but honestly how many songs can you listen to out of that 20k+ collection. It is nice to have and bragging rights but come on lets be realistic. If you on average listen to 2 hours of music per day would take you over 2 years to dent that 20k library. Doubt people listen to 2 hours of music / 365 days a year. All in all it's new and trendy and hey it's cloud something so people will find a use but as already mentioned I mean 25g you have in SD space is still more then enough for songs you would listen to for the next year to come lol.
[Thunderbolt General] feedhead:
No bragging, this is realistic. I am a the kind of person that has music on constantly. Let's says for argument sake I listen to just 6hrs of music a day. Let's say the songs are of a 4 min average so 15 songs an hr ... 90 per day ... 20K in songs w/o repeating is 222 days worth.... Oh no, I think I need more space Google :P

For reference I have scrobbled 147K+ songs in 6+ years ... feedhead on Last.FM
[Thunderbolt General] McLabia:
Im waiting for mine. Ive got 130 gigs of music on my computer and I listen to more than 6 hours of music a day 365. While Im working I get to have headphones in, when Im home, I cant stand the radio. Heres to hoping I get my invite soon!
[Captivate General] CappyMan:
Im kinda a noob. I have flashed to several roms (currently on serendipity and loving it.) Everytime to change roms I flash back to stock with ODIN. Is there a faster/easier way to flash? Cuz right now it takes me like twenty mins to completely change roms (not counting reloading apps and system data.) Thanks in advance :)
[Captivate General] slow_DC4:
Not sure if there are faster ways, but when I flash roms I usually never flash back to stock.

[Captivate General] CappyMan:
If you don't flash back to stock...what do u do?
[Captivate General] slow_DC4:
Flash the new rom over my current rom.

[Captivate General] CappyMan:
U still need to clear data/ factory reset and clear cache right?
[Captivate General] CremeFraiche:
normally u can just flash over previous ROMs w/o goin to stock when dealing with froyo ROMs sometimes u need to disable voodoo lagfix depending if the included kernel doesnt support it. but if u were to go to a i9000 gingerbread ROM then flash a froyo you would need to flash to stock with odin oneclick JF6(non 3 button fix only) because gingerbread bootloader and secondary boot from froyo ROMs will brick you

if its a full wipe ROM then no need to wipe as the ROM install will do that itself
[Captivate General] CappyMan:
But I couldn't figure out how to make Captivate Recovery 3e work....so just use Eclair to flash to roms...
[Captivate General] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Have you checked the extended power button menu? Recovery might be right there then that's all you would do to get into clockworkmod recovery- which is what you want for flashing ROMs over one another. And like you said, wipe your caches and stuff. But this goes for 2.2, or 2.2.1, not to be done between froyo and gingerbread ROMs. There might be a way to do that, but for the now the safest way is to not do that. Stick to one firmware at a time.. that's the easiest safest way for a noob to get around and try different ROMs.
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
any self-respecting rom chef will make the update script wipe cache, system, data, and dalvik cache.....

[Captivate General] studacris:
cognition is the only rom with a bootloader in it (perhaps the froyo perception) ... All other froyo roms are fine.
[Captivate General] twvance:
Just to clarify, if flashing to froyo from gingerbread, make sure the froyo package you are flashing doesn't contain any bootloaders. You do not need to go to stock jf6.

Froyo ROMs can run on gingerbread bootloaders, but if you mix a gingerbread bootloader with a froyo bootloader, you will brick your phone.

Sent from a phone inside a phone inside a KFC inside a McDonald's.
[Captivate General] rubenoso:
It's my understanding that the only way to flash a bootloader is through odin. Flashing a rom safely should only be done through CWM after flashing stock 2.1 or flashing a 2.2 kernal that has both CWM and 3e.

You can flash any 2.2 rom while maintaining your gingerbread bootloaders.

Correct me if I am FACTUALLY incorrect.
[Captivate General] twvance:
As studacris said, cognition flashes a bootloader (i assume sbl.bin). So it seems that odin is not the only way to flash a bootloader.

Sent from a phone inside a phone inside a KFC inside a McDonald's.
[Captivate General] studacris:
You're incorrect on several points: 1.Cognition has a bootloader in a cwm zip, you can flash a bootloader without odin.

2.you can flash a rom with odin, going to stock is still a rom.

3. It can't have 3e AT ALL or you will get a signature error and the flash will fail.

4. You don't have both 2e/3e and cwm st the same time. cwm replaces stock recovery.

5. Like I mentioned before cognition has a froyo bootloader so you can't flash that with gingerbread ones or it is guaranteed to brick, you can all other roms though just not cog.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the info. Its helpful to reduce the noobishness.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] codeworks:
Does anyone else have both of these devices and have had a chance to compare the screens?

My new Flyer seems to have more of a yellowish tint against the pure white screen of the Galaxy Tab. Anyone else notice the same?

Looking at it alone, the screen looks good. However, next to the Tab, it definitely has a tint. Maybe a bad Flyer? Or the way it is supposed to be?

Thanks.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] solsearch:
I can't really comment but remember that some screens are designed with a "cooler" tone (more blue-ish) and others with a "warmer" tone (more yellow-ish). If it only bugs you when you have it side by side with a Tab I suggest you don't sweat it (after all, how often will you be using both side by side?)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] smnrock:
Today i got new Flyer and found the same issue. Its more yellowish and as i use Desire HD too, its very much noticeable and annoying :( I just wanted to know whether this is one of the units or all the Flyer's having same? If its only my unit then i can approach HTC service center:(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] rjohmit:
I have a GTab 10.1 and a View. I turned the brightness of both all the way up and yes, I think the View has an off-color tint. It's not unattractive or terribly noticeable by itself but I definitely see a difference.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Amphibliam:
Ill check it out when I get my flyer. I have the 7in gtab
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
I think its more that all Samsung devices have a blue tint to them. My wife's Samsung certainly does, while the Flyer looks neutral to me.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgribeiro:
I successfully rooted my 3G XOOM today, installed ClockworkMod Recovery, but can't get into recovery mode! No matter what I do, I get stuck at a screen showing "Entering Android Recovery Mode Reading ODM fuse:1".

I waited for several minutes, and nothing happened. I tried to format th SD card, but didn't work too.

If I manually reset the Xoom, it stars normally and everything works fine.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
Did you wait 3 seconds at the Motorola screen and hit volume down and then volume up? Were you able to get in it before?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgribeiro:
Yes, i did that, but it gets stuck at that same point. And no, I never tried to enter recovery mode before.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
How did you flash recovery the first time. Did you flash or push? Have you tried to push the recovery?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgribeiro:
The first time I flashed recovery using the button inside ClockworkMod, and CWM said it went fine.

How can i push recovery? Using adb?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgribeiro:
Got it! I don't know what caused the problem, but flashing the newest version of CWM recovery using this guide solved it!

Now I can proceed updating my Xoom to HC 3.1.

I saw this case on an auction site in China and asked a friend who is from China to help me get it from there.

Here is the package:

The back:

Out of the box:

Fit nicely on my DZ:

Here is one nice thing about this case. The back piece is transparent with white edges around it so the original design isn't covered. With some other cases that cover the whole back, the phone kinda looks an iPhone after putting the case on (especially if you have white or black cases), which is not something I want.

Another good thing about this case is that instead of have all the holding clips around the 4 corners, the clips are in the middle of the top and bottom edges of the 2 shells. They clip on to the little hole on top and bottom of the phone.

This way, the gap between the top half and bottom half of the phone won't be enlarged by the thickness of the clips like those cases with clips at the 4 corners.

But this case is by no means perfect. The polish and finishing could need some better works. But I am not complaining since it is quite hard to find a nice case for this phone.

It doesn't add much thickness to the phone either.

The top part of the shell at the edge right above the keyboard side also have its edge shaved inward so that is will not block the keyboard when it's opened.

See the location of the clips:

A lot of cases out there would make the phone look ridiculous, but this one sure made mine looks better.

*Update*

You can now get this case from here if you do not live in China: http://mygadgitude.com/categories/Cases/Mobile/HTC/HTC-Desire-Z/

Thanks to ChicoKiri for the link.

If you cannot get it from the above link, try this one instead: http://www.stuffcool.com/subcategory.aspx?categoryid=349

Thanks to Are.Two for the link.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] dk2000zx:
WOOW Thats pimp! May I have the site so I can buy it too?

(Even tho my desire z got dropped multiple times already lol)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:
I bought mine from this link:

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=9722661818

Looks like nobody in US or Europe are selling them at all.

You will need to find someone you know from China or Hong Kong to help you get this I guess. Not sure if they sell international though if you try to get it yourself.

If you do a search with terms "taobao english agent" on Google, looks like there are now companies that will help people from the English world to order things from taobao . com(it's like the Ebay of China but have way more stuff and way cheaper).
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Tommebaas:
How much did you pay for it?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] cooljoe226:

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] p3lon:

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:
Yeah, that clock is cool. There will be an animation of the arms swinging from the 12 o'clock position to the actual current time every time you load back the home screen from some place else.

But if it could show the date and day of the week it would be perfect.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] qqyycchh:
its possbile to have it shipped 2 us.. but just a bit expensive
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:
Since the weight of the case is so light, I don't think the shipping cost to US will cost too much.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] PatrickHuey:
I really like this case. Alot alot. If someone can find it, please update this post.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] gdelrosario:
Capdase has stores here in the philippines, it' also one of the most imitated brands here locally so they have a lot of fakes.

I don't think the sell online though unless you go to a 3rd party site. Like cresdo.com (which doesn't really have all of capdase's products)

They also have some really good screen protectors. Anti glare, fingerprint etc...

Much better than the screen protector that I got from otterbox.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] PatrickHuey:
does this ship out of china? or overseas? i also live in the US. the website doesnt seem foreign.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:
Ok, let me clear things up a bit here.

That site provided by ChicoKiri is located in United Arab Emirates. They seem to ship their products world-wide, however, cooljoe226 tried order it but was told by that company they can't ship it to USA.

(http://mygadgitude.com/categories/Cases/Mobile/HTC/HTC-Desire-Z/)

For me, I ordered mine from an online auction site (like Ebay) in China called taobao.com thru a friend from China. Apparently for those of you who can't read Chinese or doesn't have friends that do, you can search on google with the phase "Taobao English Agent" and you can try order thru one of these agents.

This following link is the item search result on taobao.com for this case:

http://search.taobao.com/search?q=%BF%A8%B5%C7%CA%CB+HTC+DESIRE+Z+%B1%A3%BB%A4%BF%C7

And finally, this is the web site of the company who made them, maybe drop them an e-mail to see if they will export this to US.

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] cooljoe226:
i dont really understand/ trust those other agents. ugh i really like this case too
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Are.Two:
So, I found another site that seems to be selling these here: http://www.stuffcool.com/subcategory.aspx?categoryid=349

The thing is, I don't know where they are shipped from or what currency those prices are listed in. I'm a little skeptical, but if somebody wants to give it a go, by all means.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] keinengel:
A quick googling told me that the site is indian (Rs. and Rp. are short for Indian Rupee - international symbol INR). They deliver to the US. Unfortunately for me, not to Germany.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] cooljoe226:
Imma try and order it from this link

edit: this site looks really weird and poorly made. i dont really trust it
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] swee08315:
I want a case like this. I'm not sure about this website, but if I were to order from it, how much would it cost in us dollars?

also: I may be interested in the group buy idea
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] cooljoe226:
how would a group buy work?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:
It usually goes like this: Some one (probably me) buy a tons from the source (China), then mail them out one by one to different buyers after receiving payments (over Paypal) from individual buyers.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] jaytxvo:
Hey guys,

I've been talking to a seller in Hong Kong and he is going to order me the case. I only ordered one and when I get it see all the transaction goes.

If all is in order and if anyone is interested let me know so I can put together a pool of people that want this case.

I am paying 20 bucks for the case along with a service fee from the seller which all cost about 30 bucks. ( Service fee is because he sells hair wax products and since I've been a long time customer he is helping me out )
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Are.Two:
Let us know how it goes. I still really want one of these cases.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Shambolicuk:
I really like the look of this case so i went through the order process at mygadgitude and the checkout total including postage was £25.45 !! I dont like it that much !! lol. £14.00 of that was for postage which is ridiculous, i have had cases from china through ebay in the past that had free postage! Shame really as im sure they would sell more if they had a UK vendor or reasonable postage terms. You guys would have to convince me this is an awesome case to spend that much.

Edit > Also it looks like in the pictures of the rear, the speaker hole cutout on the back looks too high, anyone can confirm who has the case? Im still tempted to order now that i have seen its also

available in black :)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:
I have the case. Yes the speaker hole cutout is a bit high, but it doesn't cover up the speaker hole.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Shambolicuk:
I found this site stocking the case in white, black and clear who ship to the UK, but they only sell to registered businesses it seems. So what i did was message several phone case power sellers on E-bay with the same link to see if any of them would respond and possibly get in a small supply of them as the amount of cases listed on E-bay is still pretty big. I will post or update again when/if i recieve a reply from any of the power sellers.

Heres the link i sent them http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/459940439/Capdase_TPU_case_for_HTC_G2.html
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] shure2:
For anyone who has this case.... does dust and bits get between the phone and the case? I have a £2.50 case off ebay the same style that does, and it also adds another 3mm to the phone thickness i'd say, but hey it was only £2.50!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:
Yes, I do get a little dust trapped between the back shell on the battery cover but it is not that bad. I took the back shell off and blow it with air duster about once a month. Not a serious problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] fluxgfx:
I have the exact same case except it's the Silicone Gel type vs Hard Case.

Here's a link: http://www.amazon.com/OEM-T-Mobile-...QXKS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1312911542&sr=8-1

You have other variants of it where the actual case is transparent or white also.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ad505:
That case is not the same at all...
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] fluxgfx:
Looks pretty much the same too me. One's a clear hard case and the other is a black silicone rubber one.

But nonetheless if your so incline to think it's not then that's up to you. There's also a Clear silicone rubber one also available.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WHITE-CLE..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item3cb95f5c4a
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] jaytxvo:
It is not the same at all.

People want this because of the white trim border and the nice feel of a hard clear case.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misbehave:
Looks like the one you have have 4 clips on each side at or near the 4 corners, which enlarge the gab between the top and bottom part of the phone.

I was looking for this case particularly because each side (top and bottom) only have 2 clips located in the middle of the top and bottom half edge, which doesn't make the gap between the top and bottom half of the phone bigger.

Not to mention there is the clear window on the back plate of the case that let you show the metal battery cover and the HTC logo on it at the back no matter if you choose the black one or the white one.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] zahinasaur:
Awww man your desire z looks sexy ! <3
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] 1u4n:
this case looks good, I want one!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] rexstor:
Thanks For the info. The clip are properly placed and no far gap between the keyboard and display. Just need a nice touch and it would be perfect.
