OMG! really? what you hear must be different from what the rest of us hear, because judging on what I read in the forums they tell everyone the same thing. They are committed to what they said and they are working on getting it going. The phone hasnt even been out for a full month yet and so many of you are crying foul on HTC's part. When I spoke to someone there, they said yes they did get a memo about informing them about the new policy. She told me the newer phones (released in late summer/early fall) will come shipped with unlocked bootloaders and they were working on an update for both the sensation and evo3d(which at the time I spoke to her wasnt even released yet). She told me the techs think it's going to be a nightmare for them because of all the noobs bricking their devices. I'm sure they already have S-off ready but right now they are trying to figure out the best way to implement it. Just because they didnt unlock it in the first 4 weeks of release doesnt mean they lied! People need to have patience. I mean they have to figure out how they are going to do it and also brace themselves and be ready for tons of noobs calling in saying they ****ed up their device. There is more to it than "hey it's ready push it out"

For example, will it be a OTA update? I think they will try to not make it so easy so every tom **** and harry could **** up their phone. Will we have to call in and request it special? will we have to send our devices into HTC and have them unlock it for us? I'm sure the logistics are what they are working on now. But how you get they are lying from all the info people have gotten is amazing. They keep saying they are standing behind it, and that there will be a update of some kind to unlock it. The only thing they havent told us is WHEN. And if they did give us a date and then couldnt make the deadline then you would be saying the same ****, that they lied and would prob be even more pissed off. I honestly dont see it happening until late aug or sept. But I'm sure by then one of us devs will break it or get a leaked Hboot

I guess you are referring to the G2x? It does have Froyo stock but I hear CM7 got a lot more stable for it(I'm going to try it again). I run Faux's GB rom on my G2x. and it's pretty stable for me.

The ram issue? Sure the G2x has only 512 but I NEVER had a time when I didnt have at least 90-100mb of free ram and that's when everything I use is open and running in the background. Someone once said if you have that much available ram at all times even when you open everything up then it's pretty much wasted ram. When I got the G2x I came from the MT4G and I was REALLY concerned about having 768 and having to go to 512. But Cyanogen himself when he got the g2x said the 512 of ram was perfectly fine and there were no issues with it having only 512. When I read that I felt better about making the switch. And yes it does have less ram than the sensation but at this point and time my G2x blows my sensation out of the water speed and performance wise. I love my sensation and cant wait until we can see what this thing can really do
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
You guys are nitpicking about something you already knew about. So what does that make u?

I still got the phone knowing what I was getting. I came from the g2x and the nexus s and I don't regret getting rid of both.

The bootloader will be unlocked. We have root now and overclock so take that and have fun with it. Stop being impatient. This isn't the Atrix I'm sure it won't take that long lol.

If u want it that bad....start developing the unlock yourself or sit down and Stfu. :-)
[HTC Sensation] graffixnyc:
Exactly! If the XDA app had a thanks button I'd be hitting it right now
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
We need to ask them to add one lol.
[HTC Sensation] jkub:
Assuming everyone knew the bootloader was locked upon purchase is a bit of an unfair assumption. I had read that HTC were unlocking their bootloaders and got excited about the HTC Sensation based on that, not the other way around.

Anyway no use complaining any longer. Thanks for everyone's input! The same day I walked in to return the phone they decided to release an official statement on unlocking the bootloader. Nice one HTC!

Mods, please close this thread if possible.

Everyone else, big smiles:

And I believe s off is needed if you wish to flash.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heaterz16:
It is fine to take in with 2.10 Hboot as long as you are running Froyo - just use an RUU PC36IMG file with 2.10 Hboot and you will be fine.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] szwik:

[Verizon Droid Charge] jason2302:
I'm so fed up with these things. I know for a fact that I can't install them on my own, so I have Verizon AND BestBuy give it a go, and they still always leave dirt under it.

So I wanna know if there's ANY chance of the Gorilla Glass getting scratches. I mean even a LITTLE scratch, because I'm crazy about that stuff. Is it possible for sand or dirt or something to scratch the screen?

Please voice your opinions ASAP. I wanna throw this thing back in BestBuy's face.
[Verizon Droid Charge] brian1972ct:
I feel your pain, I thought the girl at Best Buy did a nice job installing the Zagg until I got home and noticed a speck of dust smack dab in the middle of the screen.

I should bring it back and have another one put on, but just haven't yet.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jason2302:
If I decide to keep a protector on, I'm just gonna leave it how it is. I go back to BesBuy every day because they don't know how to do it, and it's getting played out.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Funzy32:
You guys gotta start by washing your hands. Then clean the screen with a lint free cloth. Then take your time and check the screen over and over for specks. With the zagg you have to wet your fingers thoroughly take battery out before doing anything and replace back cover. Spray both sides of the screen protector and start at the top and lay it down. Peel it up until it's right. Re wet if needed! It's sloppy at first. Squeegee away from openings until the big bubbles are gone. Little ones will remain until the next day. Once dry. It's amazing and worth it. Soak up the remainder water with a cloth and leave it off with no battery for a few hours or so. Hope this helps guys. I literally just did this last night. Zagg replaces them too for life. You pay shipping. Worth it imo. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] chaddymoff:
This is my third phone with Gorilla Glass. I do keep my phone always in my left pocket and nothing else in that pocket ever, and the phone screen always facing in toward my leg.

But having said that, I don't use a screen protector and haven't had the first bit of a scratch on any of these phones. Hope that helps.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jason2302:
Certainly gave me confidence.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
This is my 2nd Gorilla Glass phone, had the Fascinate before. NOTHING scratches these phones. I mean if you have a pocket full of wood screws and rocks then maybe you'll get a couple scratches but these phones are meant to not need the plastic piece of crap protectors. They even look ugly too. The only thing I ever got to scratch the glass was a box cutter.... yeah...

You don't need it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Manjews:
Same here. Second phone with gorilla glass. I'm sure you could scratch it if you really tried but I have never had a problem.
[Verizon Droid Charge] pentafive:
I have had several phones and all of them with out any screen protectors and haven't had any issues. Keys normally end up in the same pocket as my phone. Gorilla Glass is great stuff.

I think the main reason for using the screen protector is more for anti-glare or to repel finger prints etc.

[Verizon Droid Charge] nighteyes_wolf:
I went to my mall because Ghost Armor had a kiosk near the verizon store in there. paid the $50 total for the full body skin and install and I tell you, it is worth the money to have it put on professionally, well closest to professional hahaha. PLUS, now I have lifetime replacement so long as I go there and the damaged skin is on it just pay them the $15 install fee for full body or $10 for front screen only and you are set!

the screen does NOT feel like there is a skin on it. smooth and clear
[Verizon Droid Charge] Blackhammer221:
I had a Sprint Evo before with Gorrila glass and I scratched it. I had my ear buds in my pocket with it and the jack made a 1 inch scratch near the center. From then on I always use a screen protector.
[Verizon Droid Charge] happynoodleboyx:
I've used my fascinate naked for a while, always careful with it and put it in my pocket facing my leg. Then one day a .2mm scratch came out of nowhere, probably from a spec of sand in my pocket. Sure, it will handle most of everyday materials, but if you're OCD about having a perfect screen, and a little scratch happens, will always be in the back of your mind. Better safe then sorry. Nothing is really un-scratchable unless it's diamond or crystal sapphire. Only materials with hardness greater than or equal to can scratch other materials. Here's a hardness scale just for fun!

Talc

Gypsum (fingernail at 2.5)

Calcite (copper - old penny at 3.5)

Fluorite

Apatite (window glass or typical knife blade at under 5.5)

Orthoclase (good steel file at over 6.5)

Quartz

Topaz

Corundum (sapphire, ruby)

Diamond
[Verizon Droid Charge] Farabomb:
I buy protectors in packs of 5 becasue I never get it the first time. I've used skins from best skins ever on my BBs but they would always end up peeling. I have a friend that installs clearbras on cars and have gotten material from him but even with being super anal on the install it will end up peeling. I would love to have a nice skin and drop the cases but I haven't found a good one yet. The Storm2 I had before had a skin from best skins ever and took a few knocks without issue so I'm not worried about the charge.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
have you tried the wrapsol covering..I saw it at my local Walmart of all places
[Verizon Droid Charge] elkniwcire:
I hate the way screen protectors feel and look on a phone. I always feel like I'm losing screen clarity so I keep my Charge without a screen protector. I make sure to never put it in the same pocket as my keys however. While my Charge has zero scratches so far, my fascinate got one scratch when I had it in the pocket with my keys.

Basically if you go without a screen protector you have to be able to accept the fact that you probably WILL get a tiny scratch on it. It is difficult to do but possible. But would you rather deal with screen protectors all the time or deal with a tiny scratch? It all depends on what is worse to you.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Smitty9803:
I would rather not use one but I'm one of those guys that would go crazy if that big, beautiful screen was scratched.

I used the "Realook" screen protectors on my fassy and will probably use them on my charge after I receive it Monday. They cover the entire screen and don't affect picture quality at all. There is hardly any difference in feel and they hold up very well over time.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mefloump:
On my Fascinate and my Charge I use these... http://www.sgpstore.com/cell-phone/...-screen-protector-steinheil-ultra-series.html

I like the ultra clear as they feel like glass and puts my mind at ease. Just my 2 cents.
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
WTB diamond screen protector.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jselden:
I use the steinheil screen protectors. I had one on my fascinate since it came out and had some small scratches on it. I just ordered one for my charge and should be here this week.

And my wife's is in even better condition than mine and had it just as long.

Its worth the $14 dollars. Also if you look in their ebay store they have them with free shipping.

[HTC EVO 3D] hsingh00:
I think this may be a bug..or maybe i just don't know what i'm doing..which is highly possible. So your suppose to be able to rearrange the apps in the apps dock..whether your in "All apps", "Frequent", or "Downloaded". If you long press on any of these buttons the view changes to "Press and hold icons to rearrange". Well none of the icons show up for the apps to rearrange!

Kinda pisses me off...are you guys seeing this?
[HTC EVO 3D] jayharper08:
I've never known it to be able to do that with Sense. :mad:
[HTC EVO 3D] YoungSinema:
Who said you could rearrange the apps in the drawer?
[HTC EVO 3D] hsingh00:
One would assume that you could if the feature is present...well kinda present. This is my first Sense 3.0 device so I don't know if its been available on any other devices.
[HTC EVO 3D] Deleted member 2736178:
i think that is supposed to mean you can rearrange the all apps, favorites, recently used icons.... useless...
[HTC EVO 3D] MrPhilby:
I don't think you can rearrange the apps, just the 3 "categories" on the bottom. IE if you want the app drawer to open to your favorite apps by default, click and hold the 'star' icon and drag it to the L of the 'all apps' icon.
[HTC EVO 3D] bitslizer:
if you have the app drawer open, and press the menu key, you can sort it by Alpha, and 2 date sort option
[HTC EVO 3D] jayharper08:
Maybe you were thinking of the BB Storm :p
[HTC EVO 3D] hsingh00:
No it doesn't work like that. Has anybody tried this? I looks pretty obvious what "they" were trying to accomplish.
[HTC EVO 3D] anti-up:
I've seen it, and it didn't show apps for me to rearrange either
[HTC EVO 3D] MrPhilby:
What part doesn't work for you?

I just long held and moved my star/favorite icon all the way the the left of the bottom bar. Hit home, then hit the app drawer button and the star/fave icon was highlighted and there was only one page of (presumably) my most used apps.
[HTC EVO 3D] hsingh00:
Sorry, that does work. Guess those the "icons" that they are speaking of rearranging, although a bit misleading. But if the feature isn't there..then its not there.

A. Root your phone (use GingerBreak. You need to buy an external sd-card to make it happen) and find yourself the GladEnable script to enable sideloading. Done.

B. Flash the newest 4.5.91 build (gingerbread, AT&T only). Then you can find the much blessed "install non-market apps" checkbox. check it and you are done. here's a link to save you some time for searching the web: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1159950

[Thunderbolt General] bart77:
I too do not see the purpose, But when switching from one rom to another. Is it not a good idea to format /system? If I just wipe data (/data /cache /dalvik) and install a new rom from zip. Is it just overwriting /system partition or does it auto-format before. No one has ever explained this to my knowledge. If it simply overites could it leave other rom files behind causing errors? If so I would want to format this as well with every new rom.

I assume it would have to, since some zip files simply update the current rom.

Please advise, rom makers.
