[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] czr:
That didn't work. Maybe I'm installing contacts.apk wrong. I've been long pressing the second phones contacts.apk on my SD card then long pressing to install. It says installing then application not installed.

Can someone post the vibrant cobtacts.Apk and give me pointers on install so my phone will take it?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] czr:
^Help anyone?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex9090:
You can't install system apps just by pressing on them. You have to use root explorer to push app in /system/app directory.

Sent from samsung vibrant
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
^^AGREED^^

Take the one from the ROM zip itself, or from the phone that it werks on whatever really. Good luck!:)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
You need an app called Root Explorer as Alex mentioned. Then, mount it with root rights and RW privileges (its a checkbox at the top while using it) and copy the apk to the same place it is on the working phone. Then, restart your broken phone and it should be fixed.

If you have the force-closing again, something else is causing it, likely a setting conflicting somewhere. You may need to go ahead and reset some settings from Titanium Backup then.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] czr:
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Such a simple fix since I had a good working copy of the apk on the other phone. Got it to work!

I am trying to get adb to work. I am doing it on a x64 vista system and I think I am getting the Path wrong. I am trying to get it to run like the page says to initialize it to read the device so I know it is working.

I can't get it to start from command prompt with out navigating to the directory it resides in. Is that right for the newer versions of ADB or am I just a monkey and can't figure out simple pathing?
[Verizon Droid Charge] sinhumane:
I just made a folder in my c drive called ADB, and placed the entire folder with adb and the dll files required in it, along with superuser, busybox, etc.

Right click on command prompt and run as administrator.

once at system32 type: cd C:\ADB

then you will have navigated to the folder containing your ADB files.

your command prompt should now read: C:\ADB

then you can type: adb devices

it will say something about starting daemon services, and then list attached devices.

you are free to proceed with whatever instruction or operation you are doing after that.

also, make sure you have the drivers for the phone installed, or your computer wont recognize the android debugging bridge.

[XPERIA X8 General] d1zL:
hey people

i'm not really a noob for android and phones but this problem makes me crazy..

after 2 weeks of google searching I decied to register here and ask all of you for help to make my phone faster :P

few of my friends have x8 and x10 mini and they are so fast compared to mine x8 :/

I bought mine x8 just month ago and first day when I connected my phone to pc, software was automatically updated from android 1.6 to android 2.1 .. on android 1.6 phone was really god and fast, but now, when i have 2.1 it's too slow everytime and sometimes is blocking really much and its makes me crazy ..

I tryed many softwares, task killers, bla bla.. everything, because I wanted to make my phone faster but i dont know, maybe that phone isnt good enough to work fast with 2.1 android like as 1.6 android ? or what ?

do I need wait for new software (3.xx) ? or do I can downgrade it to 1.6 android or any other way to make x8 faster (ups, that I call faster, that's not faster, it's just normal as all other x8's or x10 minis)

thanks a lot in advance
[XPERIA X8 General] samf:
well root your phone and try any of the custom ROMs around here, i currently use floyo 0.30 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=914513, its much faster than stock, and very stable, I also installed overclock module and setcpu which bumps things up even more.
[XPERIA X8 General] seregazzz82:
My phone was very slow with 2.1 too. Now I`m using XGin by shpit, I think this is the best 2.3.x rom.
[XPERIA X8 General] wc_how:
If you are really want to use the stock rom,i advise you reflash it using SEUS,don't use PCC.

I tried few roms,so far i found that floyo 0.20 most suitable to my phone,i am not sure why,maybe difference phone has difference hardware too.
[XPERIA X8 General] terracuk:
I'm very new to X8 but a veteran of SE's + faffing with them.

My first X8 died on me, the touchscreen failed after 3 weeks. This came as 1.6 stock rom so I updated it with PCC to the 2.1 update 1 and noticed a slowdown.

My replacement fone came yesterday, already pre-installed as 2.1 update 1 and is a lot faster.

So like wc_how says id' try a repair with SEUS and see if you get your speed back as there may be a problem with the PCC flash or it didnt go correctly.

Or as the other guys suggest root it and install a custom rom, it takes literally seconds to root and minutes to prep and rom.
[XPERIA X8 General] paco911:
Well, I just recently updated my sisters x8 from 1.6 to 2.1 using PCCompanion, and the phone became more responsive, battery lasts longer, and everything is working perfect.

Try using any custom ROM (i'd suggest you FroyoBread) and report back, and if it's still slow, ask for a refound or a new phone :)

Even though, I must say that I can notice better responsiveness with my sisters phone using stock 2.1 ROM than mine with any custom ROM...

So I've had the Body Glove case for about a week now. It's the one with the removable belt clip/kickstand. Anyway, around the rear speaker I now have some indentations caused by the case. They appear to be permanent scratches. Kind of bugging the **** out of me. Can anyone with this case, take theirs off and see if they have the same issue?
[HTC Sensation] m918v:
Oh man. thanks for posting this picture. My case is definitely going back the minute I get it.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Thanks for the info indeed! I just looked at my phone due to your pics and I do see some minor indentations as well around the speaker like you and also around the camera. Not too bad, I can hardly see them, but I know they are there. I'm getting some other back cases in to cover it up but if I wasn't I would have bought those replacement covers on ebay.

To all, please check your phones! I'm removing this blasted case now...argh...
[HTC Sensation] TJBunch1228:
A heads up to those who have and/or will read this and are affected. According to tmonews, on Monday TMo will be offering a 50% off accessories coupon via their facebook page. Just print and take to a tmo store. I have every intention of returning this case and then using the coupon to get a different case for half off. For those that prefer instant gratification in exchange for paying a couple extra bucks, this offer is a great deal.

Edit: I felt this info would be pertinent enough to start an individual thread for it. If anyone feels leaving this post here in this thread is inappropriate, let me know and I will remove it.
[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
Hopefully this thread will help people avoid that case. I use the black gel that's sold in the tmobile stores and I actually really like this case. I hated the gel for the hd2, but I used it just because. This one I actually keep on it all the time. It's that nice imo.
[HTC Sensation] shorty87:
I have the same problem on mine too. I'm gonna get the black gel case tomorrow.
[HTC Sensation] Honestly77:
There are 2 solutions...one invisishield your device or stop using the case...what a bummer. I really love this case. I'm gonna do an exchange here soon and I'll invisishield it first and see the difference.
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Just saw this case at the store, but decided against it!
[HTC Sensation] julez456:
I've had similar indentation problems with the other two-tone Body Glove case (no kickstand) that T-Mobile sells but around the 3.5mm headphone jack on top instead. After a couple days with the case off the indentations have gone away. I haven't put the case back on.

Trying to figure out if I should keep it naked or look for a different case to replace the Body Glove. :confused:
[HTC Sensation] gustav30:
I also have the Body Glove case w/kickstand - but haven't seen this problem. Had it for about 2 weeks. Just took it off to check.

I'm gonna try not to worry about it.

Kind of feel like any hard case that comes out especially the tight ones, or even some of the gel cases will end up leaving a mark on the device in some way.
[HTC Sensation] genuineLeland:
Me too :-[
[HTC Sensation] vash429:
Same thing here two tone case some indentations around volume and around the camera
[HTC Sensation] gustav30:
Hi all,

I stand corrected and noticed the blemish by the speaker today. Very slight but there.

Is everyone planning on returning the Body Glove case w/kick stand? I am on the fence about returning the case - doesn't seem to be in any other areas and I figure I've had it on for the past 2 1/2 weeks so any other blemishes probably would have shown up by now.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Not returning mine. I got mine from wirelessground.com and for the price I personally do not think it's worth returning the case. I have since removed the case and awaiting a few barely there type cases from china.

But I already have a universal clip pouch that I bought from ebay which works well in protecting the phone IMO. Its kind of bulky but I cannot complain whereas I dropped my phone (about 3 feet high) the other night in the case and held up excellent.
[HTC Sensation] Scupra:
Hey guys I work at a t-mobile corp retail store and all t-mobile stores should havegotten an email to pull the bodyglove two tone cases off the shelves. There is a fitment issue as well as what you guys are pointing out. Just an fyi I guess! GL
[HTC Sensation] gustav30:
For the case being pulled, are you talking about the body glove icon case without the kickstand? I think that was mentioned on the other body glove thread and has caused some confusion because body glove has 2 different cases for the sensation. 1 with kickstand and 1 without.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] genuineLeland:
No, I think it's just the two tone body glove cases, because they leave a gap when put on the phone between the two parts of the case.

good thing tmo recognized it, though!
[HTC Sensation] dbirdflyshi:
manufacturing flaw i suppose.. ive had mine on for 2 weeks now and had no issue with that, compared cases and your plastic looks imbezzled pointing inside the case causing the cuts, mine doesnt have that.. guess im lucky @_@
[HTC Sensation] dbirdflyshi:
Mods merge my post if you deem necessary

i noticed that too, it took an act of God himself to put my case on the first time! but after a while of taking it off and putting it back on it became a little easier
[HTC Sensation] Scupra:
Yeah the first email we all got was special instructions of how to put the case on. You are supposed to put the top left corner of the phone in first and then snap the other side in. I believe it has something to do with the curved glass. To be specific on which cases are being pulled from the shelves they are the two tone bodyglove cases that come in a pink or a grey.
[HTC Sensation] TJBunch1228:
Yeah sounds like you got lucky. My sister checked hers yesterday and had the same indentation, including even more damage around the camera too. At the very least, hopefully people can see if they have the damage and replace it if need be. I returned mine today and used the 50% off coupon to buy the silicone one they have. It's not as hardy as the Body Glove, but I'm not disappointed.
[HTC Sensation] sly5789:
stay away from the body glove cases. I too when I first bought my phone got a case from Tmobile and screen protector. After placing my Sensation in the case for about an hour I needed to change my micro sd card and when I took it off I also had indention near the ear phone area and the speaker area. I also tried to apply the screen protector but it didn't even cover up the entire screen of the phone. I thought that was ridiculous. So I ended up returning the case and the unused screen protector. After about 30 minutes or so the indention were gone, I guess I took it off in time. But now I got a soft plastic case from ebay that has a nice design on the back and no hard plastic parts inside to make indention.
[HTC Sensation] IronSheik:
yea...my store told me they got pulled/recalled & that they should have some in stock next week so i take it that means body glove is already producing the updated cases?
[HTC Sensation] steve austin:
where are the kickstand cases for the "multimedia" phone? And I am not talking about the super bulky ones that re in this thread. BodyGlove made a clear one with a kickstand for the hd2 that was stellar. What is the deal?
[HTC Sensation] Macklessdaddy:
I posted about this like 3 weeks ago,but since switching to a TPU case the marks have all but dissappeared, how I don't know.
[HTC Sensation] KillaHurtz:
Well I have had a TPU case on for over a week. When I remove it you can see some indentations, but they go away after time. For example my case is Argyle patterned and when I remove it I can see some of the pattern embossed onto the grey part of the battery cover. I was paranoid about it at first, but like I said time heals all :D

If anyone remembers the back of the G1 it had a simular feeling, I think its designed like memory foam for comfort ;)
[HTC Sensation] pdxrealtor:
Took mine back today, to T-Mobile. Have a tpu case on the way. Most likely will end up naked .. lol
[HTC Sensation] IronSheik:
just got the newer body glove case from a store that opened up in the mall....sales mgr said they got it sooner due to the fact that they're a new retail store ($15 AC)
[HTC Sensation] shorty87:
How does the new version fit? Does it actually fit the phone like it should?
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Where is u'r store located? And how has the case been improved?
[HTC Sensation] humpinbaybays:
OMG i have the same exact case! i have also noticed not only stratches but nicks and holes. I'm taking my case and phone t-mobile and see what they say
[HTC Sensation] Jason Syn:
These cases were recalled by T-Mobile corporate, in case someone didn't already post that info. :)
[HTC Sensation] setzer715:
Just so everyone knows, the rubbery portion of the back case will actually restore to normal after time. I too had that case on and had the same imprints. I installed a carbon fiber skin with the imprints still on it. I just took the skin off yesterday (RMAing for loose battery cover) and EVERYTHING is back to normal. The rubber parts of the back are like your skin when your sleeping and you get imprints on your arm, the eventually away.

Macklessdaddy posted early in this thread that he had them and then they disappeared.

I am in no way saying it's ok to use this case, they could become permanent. I am saying, though, they will most likely go away with time.

Just my .02.
[HTC Sensation] IronSheik:
nocal (bay area)...since i didnt actually use the older case, unsure but heres a pic of the revised case...it appears to have a smoother surface of the 'rubber' material compared to the OPs pic...could be a bit looser fit as well:
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
^Ok, sounds good. I'll keep a lookout for it in the tmob store. Was there a model number on the box? So they don't push an old on me!
[HTC Sensation] Scupra:
there is a SKU on the back that should start with TMO followed by some numbers. If you post that I can check it against what was recalled. We have yet to see any new cases here, was the store you went to a Corporate store?
[HTC Sensation] IronSheik:
theres no TMO, just "SUPM36846" it also lists this # under the SKU line on my receipt...yes, corp store
[HTC Sensation] heygrl:
I posted a thread about this in the wrong forum no less a while ago. I stopped using it. The case looks ****ty when it comes to the build quality.. lots of sloppyness in how it's put together.

[HTC Sensation] vash429:
Will tmobile or body glove offer the new case to those that bought the discontinued one. I have the original "Icon" black and gray case and it has caused many indentations around speaker and what appears to be burn marks around the camera.
[HTC Sensation] heygrl:
It really stinks that we need the receipt to get a replacement for your admittedly defective, DAMAGING case.. should we give you the bill for a new battery cover too so you can cover that?
[HTC Sensation] vash429:
Here are some samples of how my phone looks now. I never dropped the phone or had anything to damage it yet. I wish i would have just left it with no case all together.
[HTC Sensation] xSDMx:
This is pretty unfair - Body Glove should be sending you all free back covers.
[HTC Sensation] vash429:
I cant find the receipt soooooooo I am stuck with what i have :(
[HTC Sensation] heygrl:
Throw it in the garbage and don't buy another Bodyglove product until they do the right thing and replace these ****ty cases for free without needing the damn receipt, even then with the damage on your battery cover.. I probably still would avoid them. That looks really bad
[HTC Sensation] 808HD2:
thats how mine is from the exact same case, what i did was i actually sanded down the inside of the case as much as i could and now it goes on a bit easier. Disappointing that it damaged my phone because it is a nice case..
[HTC Sensation] vash429:
did you get rid of the felt it has completely
[HTC Sensation] 808HD2:
No, I took the felt out and sanded the inside the I just put the felt back on. I picked up the seidio surface case and its good, thinner then the body glove, but I like the BG design better though. The seidio case, the phone is abit loose, maybe by a mm..
