[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
So I performed pretty much a full teardown. I left the screen in the front of the case, because I didn't really see a point in taking it off.

I had an Otterbox Defender before, but I took it back to Best Buy and picked up the Platinum Surface Case (Blue), so that is in one of the pictures. Everything else is stock.

Anyway, on with the information!

--------------------------------------------------------------

The Camera button is loose! I found out why! The metal bar that runs below the button and the switch is only held in place with two screws that are on the far ends of the button and switch.

When you press down, the button actually bends the bar slightly before pressing fully. When I pressed the button in, it would feel like there were two clicks. Apparently the first click was just the metal button pressing down and touching the actual button (on the chip), and the second click was the actual button press.

I implemented the most ghetto fix ever for this (insert your jokes here). I literally took two thin cuts of packaging cardboard (from a super-glue box), and taped them together. They were about 1/16" thick each, so total it ended up just over 1/8" thick. Then it just rests in-between the metal beam, and the back plate for the phone (the piece the battery rests in). I was thinking of soldering something on, but then it would be a permanent change to the phone, which I didn't want.

The button on my phone is now rock-solid, and doesn't move at all unless pressed in. It now feels solid to the touch, and the only press that happens is the actual camera press. It feels much better now with this, but it makes me laugh to think of how I fixed it.

Chips on the board(s), in order of location. Each / represents a new line on the chips.

*Note: Not all chips are clearly labeled or easily identified.

I have no idea if this information will help anyone with anything, but there it is. I tried to include as much detail as possible when I was looking at the chips and information on the boards.

you couldn't zip those pics up on 4shared ..wow 3 pages ..lol

j/k :)

[HTC EVO 3D] sling:
Great pics thanks for posting them.

I get were your coming from on pad out but a little taken off on directions.

hmm I will hold tight for breakdown video that will show different angles of project.
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
It is about the easiest thing ever.

It is literally like this:

Camera button

Metal bar

Little ghetto fix

Back piece plastic

There is nothing in-between, and nothing holding it there other than the pressure of the case squeezing it. I didn't want to permanently modify the case. It's just a two pieces of packing cardboard taped together, but anything could be used.

It sits behind where the button is pressed, so it couldn't possibly interfere with the button, and it sits under the back plate of the phone, so it can be taken out if you just pop the back plate off.
[HTC EVO 3D] sling:
ha ok I see were your coming from in pic.

Was the back cover tricky difficult to detach?
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
Take the back cover off, battery out, SD card out.

Size T5 Torx screwdriver for the 4 corner screws, 2 NO:000 phillips-head screws for the middle two.

Then take a credit card and run it around the corners, and they just pop loose.

You shouldn't have to apply any force to remove it.

To do it though, you do have to break the little "security seal" that's on the bottom right torx screw. They put it there so they can tell if someone has opened up their phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] sling:
Right on thanks much.

Ive owned mine for 2 days & have 7 day disassemble rule so next week I will get it done.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
I was under the impression there was supposed to be 2 clicks with the camera button anyway. the first click focus's the camera and the second takes the photo.

Am I missing something?

btw, wish you would of looked a lil more at the 3d-2d switch and seen the reasoning for its loose play front to back. The thing is tight switching from top to bottom(3d->2D) but has lotta play front to back it seems.

sweet pics though, thanks for the tear down!
[HTC EVO 3D] Lintrix:
I'm pretty sure that the two click system was intentional...

First click is focus, second is take photo.
[HTC EVO 3D] wardfan220:
You 2 are correct, that 2 click system is there for a reason. One to focus and the 2nd to actually take the picture, much like all digital cameras.

Nice pics of the disassemble btw.
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
Might be that way, but I feel like it's much more responsive now. Before it would be wobbly and take a few presses before it would actually work, or I'd have to hold the button for a bit. Now the button is much snappier.

The switch isn't loose at all now, it requires a bit of force to move the switch either way. There is a clear click sound whenever it gets pressed either way.
[HTC EVO 3D] Lintrix:
/thumbs up/

I like that! Either way, Kudos on being a brave man to open her up and perform the surgery blind =P
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdc177:
RESOLVED!!!

Bought a rooted EVO off craigslist and the hands free activation fails after moving it to my account (ESN was clear). Went to a sprint store for help and they tried resetting through EPST menus (not sure which, maybe 786 and I tried 3282) but it fails every time because the MSL is rejected. They told me whatever ROM was on it didn't retain the MSL or blew it out so the phone didn't recognize it. Is that possible?

I tried loading the latest Fresh and the xHaus stock ROM because they said loading a stock style ROM may fix things. Neither worked.

Can anyone help? I hope I didn't get ripped off!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackslim:
There's an app in the market that can read your MSL code for you, can't remember the name of it but a simple search for MSL should turn it up

Regards
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdc177:
Thanks, it gave me a different MSL than what Sprint gave me. The MSL from the app (MSL Reader) also seems correct as the EPST menus accept it. However I still can't get the phone to activate. I'm on the newest Fresh ROM (4.2.0.0) if that matters.

I'm certainly not an expert on this topic. What are the appropriate steps to take to get this thing activated?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdc177:
Okay so after reading more I think the issue is that the phone thinks the MSL is different than the MSL in the Sprint system.

I don't know how to fix this....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prugor:
Maybe take the phone back to that Sprint store and show them the MSL you have works but the phone won't activate?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdc177:
I'm not going to a Sprint store ever again for activating rooted phones. I flashed this 3.70x all-in-one from fastboot and then activated through my Sprint account online and it was pretty easy. I had to enter the MSL the MSL Reader app gave me in the ##786# menu for the reset and then used the ##{the MSL the Sprint site gave me}# and it worked. I still don't understand why I've basically got an MSL for my phone and another for Sprint- they should be the same. But I'm up and running...maybe this will help someone else in the future.
[HTC Sensation] dmcnaughton:
I've had the sensation for about two weeks now and have been trying to find myself a screen protector since I nearly scratched it with my keys. I don't want to deal with the orange peel effect that the Zagg screens have. Any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] azsl1326:
I have purchased my last 3 screen protectors from BestSkinsEver and been very happy. They are very reasonably priced and are just as good if not better than Zagg. I haven't had any issues with them.

Here's the link for the Sensation - http://www.bestskinsever.com/htc-sensation-4g-skin-566
[HTC Sensation] jayvo:
I can vouch for Best Skins Ever. I bought a full body skin from them for my Nexus S and it was absolutley perfect!

However, this time I bought a skin from Phantom Skinz for my Sensation.....but you can't go wrong with Best Skins Ever :)
[HTC Sensation] vvilliamm:
i bought the screen protector from tmobile my rating for it is.. -1000000 .

pros- temp protection

cons- eh.. very thin, useless, doenst cover the whole thing, scratches every easy.

Right now im using the HTC screen protector and its.. AWESOME =] it feel more like a screen protector.. but i will be trying out sgp screen protectors and reelook screen protectors when it comes out.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] linsalata28:
What do you use to make these if you don't mind I'm trying to learn how to theme but so far the only thing I can use right now is the UOT kitchen I know I'm a noob but I love androids and have been trying to learn how to theme for a while now but just don't ever get enough time and I would love to know how.

Side note did that Google+ work for you i believe I sent you the email?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] vanessaem:
Yup. It's just a standalone titlebar flash. You can flash different rosies and whatever rosie you're currently using won't be affected.

I got a com.android.phone error when trying to flash the multicolor % battery over syerngy kingdom, I couldnt get it to go away, had to nand restore.

Maybe because all of these mods are only for Myn's Synergy RC1. I'm not familar with that rom but it may be using a different framework from RC1 so you'll get an error.

How do you re-map the right button?

This may be an idiotic question, sorry...

But I see the right button on the rosie's are "mappable."

How do you "re-map" them?

Not an idiotic question...:)

Go to Menu > My Applications or tap the button on the left hand side of "Phone". You will see all of your apps. Find Rosie Settings and click it. It will have something entitled "Right Button" then press the "Select" button. You will see a list of all apps to map that button to.

Here's the thing, I like to get things right the first time around so that I don't have to keep editing the mod so it would be really helpful to know which "Gingerbread" battery percent icon you're looking for. That would be really helpful.

There are many types of "gingerbread battery and percent" icons.

I've never worked with this type of rosie before but I can try to get this going for you using one of my rosies. I'm going to be quite a bit busy today but I can have this going for you as soon as possible. :)

Please be sure you're using the old installment of RC2 though until I get the new script for the "god-mode" version sorted out.

Those are good examples of what im looking for but i like your clear rosie in the op with the white icons. I am currently running god mode and i've read about the issues with getting the mod's updated. Im in no rush at all, if and when you get to it is cool with me!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] vanessaem:
Ok no problem but in the meantime since I'm not running god mode at the moment, I will see if it works with the old RC2 mod then once I get the script working I can have that done in god mode. Thanks for your patience. :)
