[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] i00:
I have a journel case that has the HTC logo on the front... (got it off ebay for $44.39 AUD / $47.63 USD - expansys AU now stock it for cheeper here) not entirely sure if it is an official HTC case ... but:

The build quality is great

Fits really well

It has a place for the pen

It looks good and is barely bigger than the flyer

It has magnetic clips

It has a place for the pen

I have been using it for about a month and it doesn't seem to mark the flyer (unlike the rocket fish case)

Here is a pic of it from the net:

I will post some more of mine if you guys want

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] nebaneba:
Yes please! All the pictures I've found for this case are that same picture.

Also, does the front flap fold behind it?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] i00:
Sorry about the poor picture quality don't have a great camera... but here are some images:

​

If you want some more tell me what of and i'll post

Also the only thing missing is holes for the speakers ... and i actually don't think it needs them - the sound is still great - crisp and loud! :)

Too bad when you stand the case up it doesn't rotate to landscape because it only has one landscape mode not upside down landscape

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ActuallyDan:
Hey guys, first of all sorry for not specifying my problem in the thread's title. Thing is, I have at least 3 problems and I don't see the need of creating a new thread for each problem.

Anyway, yesterday I took courage and decided to root my tablet for the first time. I followed the tutorial posted by Chulri here in the forum and apparently succeeded. However, it was only a matter of time before the problems started.

Here they are:

1 - Whenever my screen times out and I wake up the tablet it gets painfully slow eventually crashing. Is that a known problem or is it just me?

2 - It also crashes whenever I try to connect my BT keyboard.

3 - I can't connect it to my computer AT ALL. When I plug it in and choose "mount" the program just crashes. Strangely, I get a pop-up note that says that my usb is connected and that it's ready to upload and transfer files from my pc.

4 - I have successfully installed the market after rooting my tablet. Still, even after doing that some apps won't show up, such as: ADW.Launcher and Go Launcher EX. Note, that I am currently living in China and using the marketenabler app.

Now, I have read that for rooting the tablet a fresh install is advised. I didn't format my Archos though. Could that be the source of my problems? I'm not using a decent SD card either but from what I know that shouldn't really cause any problems unless I'm using urukdroid. So guys, any suggestions?

Thanks for your help!
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ActuallyDan:
Ok guys, after browsing the forum for a couple of hours I have found the solution to most of my problems.

I have basically downgraded to version 2.1.08 again by following the guide here. After that most of my problems were gone. I still have to test my BT keyboard; once I do I'll let you guys know how it went. The market is not showing all the apps yet but that shouldn't be a problem.

i searched google but nothing...i need to know what checkboarding is. what it does and what is it for? does it share anything with CIQ or what?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
When you pinch-zoom the browser you see checkerboard screen and then the zoomed screen instead of a smooth view of it zooming.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
CIQ is not related. It is Samsprint spyware. So you will see some ROMs have it removed. You will also see some browsers modded to fix the checkerboarding issue. Third part browsers don't have this issue.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sprintguy1376:
When you use a browser and scroll too fast for the browser to keep up, instead of showing the content on the page, it shows a checkerboard for a split second to catch up then displays the content.

It has nothing to do with CIQ

so when i take pics on the phone, they dont show up in the gallery.... i usually have to reset the phone, or take the battery out to make them show up... then after a while i have to do it again etc....

any ideas how to fix this?

Are you rooted with a custom rom, or stock?

Search market for an app called 'Rescan Media'. Run this to update the gallery with all photos you have taken. It's a fairly common problem (at least on stock, don't know about with other ROMs). Hopefully the 2.3 update will sort this out.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kendav911:
OK folks,

I have been a member follower of these groups for a longtime now. I love the android environment. I bought a charge yesterday that is giving me problems. I have not even begun to hack and am having lockups, robot voice, slow response, etc.

I have just factory reset before I take it back but wanted to know what the groups feel about the 2. I will be submitting this same question in the thunderbolt forum as well. Looking for opinions with a reason, please no flaming either device or me. I have read nearly every post under the charge group of forums.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
What were the issues you had with the Charge? Maybe others had the same problem and know of a way to fix things, or a work around?

Overall, I've heard of issues with both devices, but I have heard of more serious problems with the Thunderbolt compared to the Charge. The Thunderbolt is having reboot issues with the latest OTA update, and before that, had significant battery drain problems, with a full charge lasting just a few hours, regardless of use. The other problem, which is semi-manageable is the screen and its washed out look, and I've also heard of light bleed around the edge. The other issue, which I haven't heard as much about recently where times when the Thunderbolt would get stuck in 1X or 3G when in a 4G area.

With the Charge, some users seem to have random battery drain problems. Myself, I haven't noticed it being to bad, but I only just got my phone. Signal bouncing around has been reported to, but so far, when I'm in a 4G area, it stays in 4G unless I send a text or get a call (haven't tried voice/data simultaneously yet), and if I'm in a fringe 4G area, it seems to only pick it up if it is a better signal than 3G. Software may be a downside here to, depending on how you look at it, but so far, this is the best Samsung phone I have used, and best phone overall, despite the current lack of mods (which will be fixed in the coming days/weeks now)
[Verizon Droid Charge] ghettomuffin:
I just picked up a Charge about a week ago after returning the Thunderbolt. I can honestly say if you want a 4G device, the Charge is the better option. I used the Thunderbolt for about six weeks and had way too many issues with it. I won't say that the Charge is problem free, but its minimal in comparison and managable. With the Thunderbolt I had worse battery issues, syncing that wouldn't shut off, terrible signal that would go from 3G to 1X to no service, and reboots multiple times a day. The only problems I've had with the Charge has been Touchwiz and the battery. Touchwiz is an awful launcher but that's what ADW or Launcherpro is for. And the battery life for the Charge is rough, but probably double than what I was getting out of the Thunderbolt. Before these phones came out, I had no faith in either manufacturer when it came to android. Now, some has developed for one. Hope this helps.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kendav911:
Thanks both of you for your responses. I have read the complete forums about my issues and some are common and involve a bad phone. I actual got 2 and the other one does not have the same issues so back to Verizon for a replacement I will go.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bunklung:
I have a thunderbolt too and have and still do have random reboots and battery drain. I also get 1X lock in 3G areas too.

My wife owns the Charge and so far it's nice. I haven't really had it long enough to really compare the two.

How did you return your Thunderbolt after 6 weeks? Or did you just pay full retail for the Charge and ebay the thunderbolt?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Z51:
I bought my charge yesterday. Came from a tbolt. The tbolt is a piece of **** compared to the charge. ****ty battery. Poor build quality.bluetooth sucks. Screen sucks. And for some reason htc cant seem to send me a good replacement for my original tbolt that randomly died on me. Samsung makes a fine product.

Sent From My VooDood Charge
[Verizon Droid Charge] angry english:
The ONLY thing i preferred on the TB over my Charge was the 256mb of extra memory really does make a difference, everything is that bit snappier on the TB, but the crap battery, poor visible screen when outside, the piss poor signal, the fact it looked just like my mates htc surround windows 7 phone just bigger and finally some of the software is garbage like when it saves drafts and you dont want it to of your half written text, and the fact the browser instead of being able to type and google search appears, you have to delete the http:// that appears everytime, make the charge stand head and shoulders above the HTC, will be interesting to see what this new LG Revolution is like as that seems identical to the charge

Quick edit: But i have to add that when changing over from rfs with the voodoo lag fix could make things even out in speed, im yet to root so i cant answer
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
I had to take back my first Charge as the vibrate motor was dead :( The new one though seems to be fine thus far though.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sir2545:
I had the Thunderbolt the first day it came out and returned it on the 14th. I really like the Charge, compared to HTC and Motorola, I think Samsung offers a good blend of things. The media player on this phone f-in ROCKS! The camera is good, much better low light performance than Motorola and offers great controls, and the screen is beautiful. The only thing I absolutely HATE is the **** brown color scheme. I hope that this can be resolved soon and I hope that developers will jump on board and give us a great community of ROM's and support because I think this phone has great potential
[Verizon Droid Charge] bunklung:
I *think* the Charge has dedicated video memory, where the TB doesn't.

So the Charge may only have 512M RAM, but I *think* it has 128M of video memory, where the TB has 768 of shared memory.

Someone chime in and correct me if I am wrong.

I do have both a Charge (wife) and a TB. I think the Charge, even with the Voodoo lag fix, is not as snappy as the TB. Not because of the memory, but because the TB has a bumped processor over the older hummingbird.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kendav911:
Thanks all for the feedback. I still have the Charge and I did a factory reset and most of the issues have resolved itself. I am still looking at the thunderbolt but for now I have the Charge.
[Android Software Development] Bateluer:
I searched, and found no references to EVO2 or Envizions. :P

Saw this over at Engadget earlier though, and it seems intriguing.

http://store.envizionsinc.com/gamebox-console-powered-by-android-pre-order.html

http://store.envizionsinc.com/gamebox-console-powered-by-android-pre-order-developers-android.html

This has very intrigued. Its a relatively cheap console, with a low price of entry for developers. 150 USD per year for software support really isn't that much compared to the big three console makers. It seems like that means anyone familiar with Android programming or a desire to learn it could get in on this and make games. Seems like Envizion is pretty developer/community friendly too.

Anyone else want to weigh in on this?

[Thunderbolt General] Xpiatio:
I'm actually thinking about getting a charge. The product designer needs to get fired for making the tbolt. Not enough testing was done and it surprises me.
[Thunderbolt General] astefanik:
Honestly if you can live without the charges screen, id go with the thunderbolt. In my opinion it has much better build quality, and the dev. support behind it is amazing, and will only get better with time. I dont think as many devs. will jump ship to the charge seeing how it isnt that much different then the fascinate. But thats just my two sense, both are great phones either way and are going to have their quirks.
[Thunderbolt General] fishy68:
def thunderbolt. faster, more support so far on xda sites, and samsung has been lazy with their updates..
[Thunderbolt General] Tower1972:
Last week when I finally switched from Sprint to Verizon, I literally played with working models of the Thunderbolt and the Charge in the VZ store for 45min. I played with the app drawers,apps themselves,the cameras,hell I could probably have told you how many squares were on the back of the Charges battery case. After the 45 min there, I went to Best Buy and played with non working models for another 30 min (im VERY indecisive when it comes to new phones). I only went there because of my Silver reward zone membership and I had money off from the Zone rewards. In the end I chose the TBolt. I was very accustomed to Sense for one coming from my Evo for almost a year, and while sure the Charge as the Super Amoled screen, I like the screen on the Tbolt more. Touchwiz felt like a childrens coloring book in terms of the range of colors used opposed to Sense. The TBolt also feels good when held,actually feels like a phone while the Charge felt like a cheaply manufactured toy with a UI to match.

I read one review that I ended up agreeing with that said "The Droid Charge isnt worthy of the "Droid" name at all. Its nothing more then a Galaxy S class phone and Verizon needed a Droid branded 4G phone,so they slapped it on that (LTE radio) and bam, the DROID charge
[Thunderbolt General] :
I kinda feel the same way about the Thunderbolt TBH. I've had mine since Tuesday (the Thunderbolt), and I am really disappointed with Verizon's 4g initial lineup. The whole thing feels like Verizon had to rush there LTE network out, by annoucing it last year when they did (what Nov or Dec) and then they had to force out LTE phones, and none of them seem ready. I feel like we are all there test subjects, the problem is this isn't a test environment, and they are making some serious cash off the tests...

I am still torn on what to do. I have basically another 12 days before my 14 days left and I might switch to the charge within then.

Then again it doesn't matter for me...as LTE won't be in my area til later this year (as only based on Verizon press releases), I am only going this route to try for the grandfathered LTE...and kinda made up my mind this is the last phone I will ever buy on contract...
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Go with the N64....
[Thunderbolt General] squeakyl:
I would buy a 4G mobile nintento 64. i would also fail every class ever because of super smash bros and mario kart
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
There is a n64 emulator on the market. I love it.
[Thunderbolt General] zachsx:
Main reason I didn't go with the charge, is because I had the fascinate. And Samsung's customer service, and updates for the phone are almost non existent. I will never go back to Samsung because of that fact. HTC is great about keeping there phones up to date. Just my 2 cents.
[Thunderbolt General] PJnc284:
Yeah, Samsung has a long way to go in terms of US software support before I'll own another one. I went android for the development community and no or long delayed updates/source code stifles development. Heck, most of the developers won't even touch a Samsung device.
[Thunderbolt General] TheStick13:
I could not have said it better myself. It's a great phone, and with all the dev support behind it, it will only continue to improve. T-bolt all the way.
[Thunderbolt General] C Dirty:
I'm not a fan of the physical buttons on the Charge, and while Samsung was on the list of companies who would consistently update their devices at Google I/O, I'll have to see it before I believe it.
[Thunderbolt General] M@|ice:
love my thunderbolt, hate the battery, but love the phone.
[Thunderbolt General] init_dot_t:
love my tb and the way the charge feels.. all plastic and they want 300? I would pass plus look who makes it.
[Thunderbolt General] Cg006:
I feel the same. Phone is awesome, but battery sucks so much Coo-Low.

I got bamf remix 1.6.3 with the 4.7.7 kernel and while the battery is much better now when on standby, if i start using my 4g is like my battery has a leak... drains so fast.
[Thunderbolt General] Tower1972:
Yeah I still have 6 days left in my trial,but im liking it so far. Only issues I have are signal strength. Guess I LIKE seeing full bars but in my house,backyard even, I sit at 0-2 tops. Tho my area is slated in the new June 16 LTE rollout (Menomonee Falls WI), im still on the fence because of the little to no bars issue. This is strange tho because even with this, I can get 1.9-2mb download speeds on speedtest lol
[Thunderbolt General] boristhebladexx:
reason's to buy the thunderbolt:

(1) the charge is cheap plastic

(2) it took team cyanogen forever to get sammy phones to run CM

(3) touchwiz vs sense isn't nearly a fair fight

the thunderbolt is heavy, but it's a solid "i'm a $250 on contract phone" heavy
[Thunderbolt General] albotz21:
Thunderbolt..just the battery blows. but from stats and everything ive read id go TB
[Thunderbolt General] yareally:
I wouldnt buy a samsung made phone other than the Galaxy S2 or Nexus S. The former wont be out on verizon until probably winter sometime and the later probably never will be (but you could buy the version made for sprint and probably activate it for use with verizon).
[Android] liperek:
I was wandering if anyone have encountered a problem with installing apps that install directly to sd card from the market. I am unable to install some.of the apps but a few of them I already had on my streak before it broke and got exchanged. No problems with installing them then. So what I have noticed is that I can install an app but only one. The first app that saves on sd card will install but then cant do them. I am getting the sam message "unable to install on usb/sd card"

I contacted the apps develipers and thay are not sure whats going on and blame it all to bugs in matket and android and the fact that google is not doing enything to solve the problem.

Can anyone help??

[Samsung Infuse 4G] sportedwood:
for me anyway....

I couldn't sleep so I spent some time reading the galaxy s forums for fixes we could do to our Infuse's froyo that didn't involve flashing a different kernel, if you know if any more please post up.

FuguTweaks - I had been setting my own memory settings in "galaxy tuner" to leave about 100mb free of "EA" memory, this helped speed up the phone quite a bit and takes care of the "lag" we get when only about 60mb is free. I then found this FugyTweak and it seems even better. It only leaves me about 80mb free but much better than stock.

Browser Lag - I used the non mobile version of engadget to benchmark before and after, it does seem to stutter less.

CM6 mms.apk - I have never been a fan of the TW mms app, cm6 set to black theme works great!

I mentioned galaxy tuner earlier, you can get it in the market and the LCD color adjustments do work if you want to tune your screen, I haven't made it that far yet. I also haven't tried the 3d sound thing.

Please try everything at your own risk, I have no idea if any of this will eventually turn my/your phone into a flesh hunting screamer.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
I would not recommend that browser lag fix for the Infuse. That was for a very specific problem that early Captivate Froyo builds had. Don't think the Infuse suffers from the problem that needed fixing there. I think I'm a good person to trust on that specific topic as well.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JasjarMan:
This post has to be the best one so far to ME! I did not know about the app galaxy tuner. I was able to make the screen look WHITE when I dim it all the way down. Before it was like egg white sort of color. Also the 3d sound and EQ worked perfectly!

Thanks OP!
