sorry to disallusion you Dave but I live near Leyland in Lancashire, not Scotland. it is my dream though to retire to Kelso.

after nearly 30 yeras of caravanning up there I can say that without question Scotland is a supremely beautiful place,

whether up the West coast & the Islands or down in the more 'gentle' Borders.

one of my favourite sayings is that I love the light up there, and the ability to

see

the weather ... but beware !

they have the dreaded 'midges' up there (google it) and they are prevelent in the summer months.

if you ever get the chance to see Scotland, the best time to avoid the midges is to visit is in May (my favourite) or September.

because of my holidays there I am at 'peace' so thanks a lot.

Kevin

if you like a bit of a laugh check out a website I did for me and my golfing mates. there is a link about 9 lines down at my wife's site:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
Which one would you guys recommend to me most?

I'm currently on Bali, have been for about 12 hours, and its given me a few hours extra on battery life, but i'm wondering, is Glitch even better? I don't like to flash things I don't need.

So you guys tell me.

This is to help me, AND others that wonder the same question...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipetloudog:
Havent tried bali yet. Luuuurve glitch tho. Voodoo color is a plus and my battery life is much better, about 5 hrs more than stock redux. But as doon as bali gets voodoo color [which is soon] ill try it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Well, I'd say glitch is for the more technically/tweaking due to it have voodoo color, up to 1.7ghz oc, insane work into UV and oc stability based on your chip quality.

But Bali might have slightly better vibrant specific support since it's from a mostly vibrant oriented dev. But Bali might be more generic in the features it has (this sentence is not meant to be read as a knock or rude in anyway).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbutcher91:
glitch is awesome, previously terrible battery life and stability was questionable, but after latest update v11 battery especially is amazing, and getting some good UV aswell
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
I will try Glitch, but is the battery still good even if I don't Undervolt, underclock, over clock, or anything just flash the kernel?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Yep. :-)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
ok just flashed Glitch, lets see how it goes...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmrn89:
let me know how it goes, if bali doesnt go as well as expected in the next couple days ill probably try out glitch
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
Glitch seems to have better battery life, and thats what i wanted.

Bali gives more than the usual from CM7, but glitch goes over Bali, this is great, and the phone actually sleeps now.

:D

thanks guys
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rakeshchn:
Are you guys trying this on froyo or GB? Or it doesn't matter?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Gb, and more specifically, CM7/miui. And it's only for that.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex530:
I never got how to flash a kernal. 2 years into android and I'm still clueless-__-. Do you flash it like a normal rom? I have miui running. Do I just flash? Wipe?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmrn89:
Im fairly new to flashing kernels as well, but you DL it, put it on your internal SD and flash it like you would a rom. Thats all I did when I flashed Bali.

So far no real difference on Bali, my battery drain on cm7 is still terrible but I just flashed it today so Ill give it a couple more days
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
I always had crappy battery on Glitch, and I'm talking 8-10 hours completely unused. Bali is vibrant-specific and gives MUCH better battery life, 15 hours and still had 30% left.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
for bali, you do it normal, and for glitch to be safe, theres a script you have to download, and first flash that, then the kernel.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Actually, glitch has implemented that script into the kernel flashing. :-)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] test4vibrant:
Can Glitch work with Bionix 1.3.1 or Bionix Next Gen V2?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
really? damn those people who told me to download script!!!!

IDK if there's a version for Froyo ROMS.

Glitch is for CM7, specifically, idk if it will even work for miui- you need to pay attention to the title, which i never read.

but it is for 2.3 roms as far as i know, and there MAY be one for froyo in the future if enough people contact the developer asking for it.

Like just the images on our dialer replaced? or the actual apk ported over?

http://www.myincipio.com/HTC-Sensat...-Sensation-NGP-Semi-Rigid-Soft-Shell-Case.asp

Has anyone tried this case yet and can provide feedback on it? Im contemplating between getting this or an otterbox (when it actually comes out). This case has the necessary holes on the back which is a plus.
[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
Pretty nice case. I like the blue one.

EDIT: Judging from this review, I'd say it's a good bet it's a good case. I use the T-Mobile one mentioned. And from the looks of the blue one, I'm gonna order it eventually.

Review:

Would you recommend the HTC Sensation NGP Semi-Rigid Soft Shell Case to a friend? YES

Pros:	Best case avaliable on the market if u want slim protection.

Cons:	If you want a bulky battle tank of a case - this is not for you.

Purchased From: INCIPIO Web Site

Review: I got my Sensation 4G on the day it came out, and had to settle for a single piece black rubber case available at T-mobile store. It did the job, but attracted a ton of dust and crap, and was too loose. Since then i was monitoring all the major case manufacturers' web sites. It seems like INCIPIO is the only manufacturer at the moment that offers a slick case that provides complete protection without adding much to the phone dimensions.

I needed exactly that.

I received my case today and like it a lot. I was somewhat concerned it will be loose since its semi-rigid and stuff, but it hugs the phone as tight as any semi-rigid case could possibly do it, an extremely tight fit.

From the pictures on INCIPIO web site it is not exactly clear if on/off and volume buttons are open or covered - well, they are covered, and clearly defined by raised areas in plastic of the case.

It takes a tiny learning curve to be able to successfully push those buttons through the case, but i think i'd rather have them covered, thus preventing dust getting inside the case, than have them exposed. Good design decision.

NGP does not attract dust and lint, i just dragged my phone through the dusty carpet - nothing. This anti-dust property comes at the cost of this case not being as rubbery as you might want, but then i think INCIPIO struck a right balance between rubber and hard plastic, NGP material looks very high quality, provides solid feel and decent grip.

Unlike T-mobile case, INCIPIO case has holes for all five thousand tiny openings on the phone's back, a big plus.

Add to this a $19.99 price and free shipping, and, ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner !

But of course if you are and extreme lifestyle kind of person and need bulky triple layer protection that will withstand nuclear strike and last throu
[HTC Sensation] picachux:
So who's gonna take the plunge first? :eek:
[HTC Sensation] farufas:
I just recieved it and I got to admit it's AWESOME. It fits the phone perfectly has an awesome feel to it. Definetly recommend it to anyone getting it.
[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
Would you mind posting pics to show it's thickness and some other details? The stock images aren't really that good.

Thanks. :)
[HTC Sensation] aSpirit81:

[HTC Sensation] StefanB86:
I just ordered one. Get 15% off with promo code "FBFAN2011" :)
[HTC Sensation] Angelmsx:
Thanks for all the reply guys.

I gonna jump ship and grab the case after I get off work tonight and I will try to get a few pics up.

Hopefully if this case is as good as it sounds I won't have to get the otterbox (even though I love their products).
[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
Get the blue one!

ツ
[HTC Sensation] farufas:
Here you guys go just got a few pics, Ignore the ****ty screen protector I put on had no choice since in India they still dont' have proper sensation ones.
[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
Thanks^

How's it feel in the hand? Soft, hard? What about the grip of it?

Also, how's the solid feeling around the edges? I know the T-Mobile one seems to slide off buy the charger port sometimes. I have to kinda slide it back over the screens edge.
[HTC Sensation] farufas:
It's not like the regular gel case just a lil harder but still flexible. Grip is good cause it makes the phone a lil bit bigger & easier to hold.

surrounding edges are fine you just don't get the clicking noise when you put the charger in that's about it.....no issues @ all......

***only one thing though if you have the sensation wifi issue I felt the case made it a lil more sensitive for some odd reason***
[HTC Sensation] Nixit12:
More sensitive in that now it is more sensitive to reception (ie it helps with the problem) or it makes it more susceptible to the problem?

Sorry for the confusion :D

Also, how is the case qualitatively? How do you like it compared to naked when it's in a pocket/in use?
[HTC Sensation] farufas:
It doesn't help the problem I feel like it made it worse I loose the signal faster if I hold it a certain way than before.....

Quality is good, the volume and power buttons are a lil hard to press since they are covered. Adds a lil bulk to the pocket since the phone bare is so sleek, in use feels good in the hands to hold with the case than without.
[HTC Sensation] Angelmsx:
I feel the same after I got it last night. Especially the volume buttons, can't even feel them when I press it. It is far from flimsy though, it is a very good tight fitting case.
[HTC Sensation] WorldIRC:
Lack of power button tactility annoyed me.
[HTC Sensation] pdxrealtor:
How does this compare to the tpu cases that are out there?

I think tpu cases .com are the ones I have.

Would it be worth it to grab one of these ?

Think it would fit ina dock, the expansys ?

Thanks !
[HTC Sensation] asj2583:
I purchased the one from T-Mobile and it stretched out. Phone moves up and down inside the case. Sucks cause sometimes when I press the power button I have to slide the phone up to get it pressed.
[HTC Sensation] farufas:
You won't have a problem in this case since it's a tight fit.......
[HTC Sensation] StefanB86:
I got mine today and I really like it, super tight fit and nice texture to it. Power button is a bit hard to push but not a problem for me, I'll get used to it. If anyone one some good pictures of it, let me know.
[HTC Sensation] :
Yes, I do. :D
[HTC Sensation] StefanB86:
I took some pictures, sorry for the low light... :(
[HTC Sensation] Angelmsx:
What screen protector did you use?
[HTC Sensation] StefanB86:
I don't have one at the moment.
[HTC Sensation] Angelmsx:
Oh, my apologies. It looked like you had one on one of the pics.
[HTC Sensation] StefanB86:
Lol don't worry man. I know what picture you're talking about :p no idea why it look like that.
[HTC Sensation] daewond3r:
Thanks to everyone who submitted pics and reviews. I'm still waiting for my Sensation to come in but I went ahead and ordered this case. I had an Incipio feather case in my ipad and I loved it! I'm sure I'll be just as happy with this.
[HTC Sensation] Constrabus:
Thanks very much for the pictures guys!

This is the ONLY case I am considering right now because it is the ONLY one that leaves all battery door holes uncovered (afaik from xda reviews).

Question: Those who have it on, what's your sense of how this case would protect from impacts/drops?

I really like incipio's sylicryllic hybrid case (for it's great protection), but they don't have one yet for sensation.
[HTC Sensation] StefanB86:
In terms of protection, I'm sure that it would do a good job. I haven't drop it yet but the hard/soft material is really nice, a good quality product.
[HTC Sensation] pdxrealtor:
How is this case different from the TPU cases?

Is it just texture or something else I"m missing?
[HTC Sensation] Constrabus:
Okay great thanks!

The TPU cases that I've looked at on tpu-cases.com seem more like a harder material; like the strap on a toy watch. They material they use on the cases on that site is also much thinner. The combination of the thinness and hardness wouldn't absorb a shock as well as incipio's thicker/squishier material, in my opinion.
[HTC Sensation] pdxrealtor:
Thanks for that. Case isn't for me... I don't want thicker, that's for sure.. Looks like a nice case.
[HTC Sensation] Constrabus:
Your welcome.

Found the Incipio case for $16.99 + free shippping.

(Alternative to $19.99 from incipio.com)

Black

Blue

Pink

Edit: Also, just noticed these links provide faster shipping. 3-5 days instead of incipio's 5-7.
[HTC Sensation] Constrabus:
Just watched a video on this case. I was wrong it is actually very similar to those tpu cases. It is not thicker, it is the same material, but it seems a little higher quality and appears to have that a rubberized soft-touch feel.
[HTC Sensation] farufas:
It's an excellent quality case....
[HTC Sensation] raysacr:
I love the case. Excellent quality. The only dislike I have is the power button is hard to press, this is annoying because you have to use the power button a lot to wake the phone.
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Can this fit in a typical leather belt clip case?

Matt
[HTC Sensation] Constrabus:
Of course.

There are many many leather belt clip case holsters.

Just size one up and you're golden.

P.S. Just ordered a blue Incipio for $16.99 + free shipping with my link above and very excited. I <3 google checkout.
[HTC Sensation] plutolou:
I bought the blue (turquoise) case and it's not as blue as it looks in the pictures. Maybe because it's a little transparent but it's closer to turquoise than navy blue. I tried to take some photos but those make it look blue too, not a true representation of the actual color. Just an fyi.
[HTC Sensation] Shady Gambino:
I just ordered this from Incipio using the code StefanB86 posted (thanks!) with Google Checkout. Standard shipping is free so total was $16.00.

Looks like nice case, hope it doesn't add too much bulk to the phone; to me the slimness of the phone is part of the appeal.
[HTC Sensation] Constrabus:
Damn I didn't see that code. Oh well, so I lost .99 cents.

I agree about the slimness of the phone. Really hope too much isn't lost.
[HTC Sensation] fryrice8850:
im still going to wait for the ultra light feather hard case...i got the one from casemate but the forgot to include the wholes on the back of the cover and it blocks the dual mic functionality. one of the members from xda emailed them and they say its a design flaw and they will correct it in the next revision but i just wasted $20 there. it looks like the design is good on the incipio, but just waiting for their ultra light feather hard case
[HTC Sensation] daewond3r:
I got my phone and this case today. Love them both!
[HTC Sensation] kevinf1990:
i got this case too and love it. the only problem is that pressing the power button hurts my fingers lol. how are you guys dealing with this or do you just get used to it.
[HTC Sensation] daewond3r:
I've just been using my nail to press down. Kinda used to it from the Epik cases I used to use on my MT4G.

You could take a blade to the straight parts around the button, loosen up the surrounding area.
[HTC Sensation] Pandemoniumone:
Just made the purchase, looks like the perfect case for me :)
[HTC Sensation] thebigham:
I have been using this case for a while now. Here are my thoughts:

Pros:

- Anti-dust

- Excellent materials

- Provides a nice grib

- Looks really good

- Fits very tight

Cons:

- The case doesn't align perfectly with the holes on the back

- The opening for the headphone jack is too small, some of my headphone doesn't fully goes into the 3.5mm hole. Which means I only get sound on one side of the headphone.

- The case covers the volume rocker, and it made it really hard to press. Not a big deal for me, since i don't use the volume rocker a lot.

- The case also covers the power button, and it's also really hard to press. It's a bit difficult to locate the power button without looking. And i find myself pressing the power button with my nails. This is a big deal, because we press the power button to sleep and wake the phone all the time.
[HTC Sensation] reaperofwaywardsouls:
Just bought one... hopefully the power button issue isn't too big of a deal for me...
[HTC Sensation] Shady Gambino:
I've been using the this case for about 5 days now. Really like it, except for the power button issue, which takes some getting used to. Once you figure it out, it's not too bad.

The case does add some bulk to the phone, but that's the trade off, I suppose, for protection. It's not an unacceptable amount by any means, but it is noticeable, especially if you've been using the case for a while then take it off, you'll say "Damn, this phone is thin!"

If you were on the fence about this case, I'd say go ahead and get it, it's pretty slim, looks good, and feels good. All for under $20.
[HTC Sensation] Jacob.jsweets:
Very nice I was gonna get one until I saw the bodyguardz carbon fiber one, ordered mine yesturday for 22 bucks but it also comes with a bodyguardz screen protector.
[HTC Sensation] Soween:
Hi,

I bought one too when I purchased the Sensation, but at your price guys... 8-(

The only thing is the power button which is really boring to press, I think I'm beginning to understand how to do it, but right now this is still hard.

And to remove the phone is a bit difficult (great in a way) and when you do all the root/... process, read it till the end to be sure you don't have to put it/remove it many times... 8-)

For me the plastic is great, feels soft, but a little bit slippering (I mean it slips a bit).

That's all for me.
[HTC Sensation] sbihue:
I got mine y'day and it rocks. After reading some reviews about the ability to press vol/power button, I was concerned but its all good. The holes line up fine, no issue with the earphone plugging in. The power button needs to be pressed a bit hard but the vol (side) buttons though enclosed respond fine when pressed. All in all a very nice case. Perfect fit and usability. :)
[HTC Sensation] Shady Gambino:
Well, good news for anyone else concerned about the power button issue. After breaking the case in for a couple weeks, it becomes much more "pressable" at the button areas. In fact, for me it's a non-issue now.

So if you were worried about difficulty pressing the power button / volume rocker, once you break the case in it's not a problem. Good case, bravo Incipio.
[HTC Sensation] dhdcdarchy:
Definitely gonna pick one of these up, I keep putting it off but just recently noticed that amazon has them for £15 (a tad expensive) I think I'm finally gonna take the plundge especially after all the good I've heard about them, as well as the fact Insipio make some awesome products.

Yep this is a great case with nice coverage! It's true about the power button getting softer over time. After two weeks of ROM and kernel hopping, my power button actually has a nice feel to it now.

Both my wife and I have this case. Would definitely recommend it.
