Photos at the bottom of the post for those looking to get straight to the phone p0rn :D

When I got my DINC2 the VZW rep was "nice" enough to throw in a silicone case for free. I say "nice" because silicone is made for bakeware and o-rings, not phone cases. I was pulling the case off the phone as I walked out the door and it got ditched in the first trash can I saw.

I set out to find a case based on some specific requirements:

Thin and light

Grippy exterior

Excellet camera lens protection

The last one is really important and I'm surprised more folks don't highlight it in case reviews, especially for HTC phones. As anyone who owned the original DINC will tell you, HTC loves to leave their camera lenses flapping in the breeze where any hard object passing by can scratch/crack/smudge it.

My DINC wore a Seidio Surface case from day one and it was phenominal but with the DINC2 being slightly larger the Surface seemed to add more bulk than I was willing to stick in my pocket. I had read about the Incipio Feather case here on the forums and ordered one based on other's experiences. I was extremely disappointed when it arrived already broken still inside it's packaging. I returned it but the seller took six weeks to send the replacement, so in the meantime I got the Case Mate.

Once I had both of them in hand I was surprised at how different they were. It's the same basic design, a super thin case that wraps around the two sides and the four corners leaving the top and bottom exposed. What struck me was the difference in materials. The Case Mate was noticeably more rigid, fit more tightly and the "soft touch" surface was more grippy. The Incipio was certainly a quality case but the Case Mate just felt better.

Lastly, to the point of protecting the camera, the Case Mate takes the cake. The Incipio adds pretty much nothing in terms of shielding the camera but the Case Mate has a deliberate lip which gives the camera 2-3mm of setback. When you put the phone down in the Incipio case the lens still touches the table which means if you put it down on something less forgiving you're just asking for lens damage. The Case Mate's lip puts some distance between the lens and whatever you put it down on. When you take into account that your phone spends a great deal of time in your pocket, along with change/keys/etc the Incipio offers pretty much no protection to what I would call a design flaw on HTC's part.

In the end I'm glad I didn't pay for the Incipio (the seller refunded my money and let me keep the case to avoid negative feedback for the six week return delay). The Case Mate is a fantastic minimal case for the DINC2 that adds very little bulk, makes the phone easier to grip, protects the camera really well and feels much more durable than a 1mm thick piece of plastic.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 06stang:
Cool review thanks. Still just waiting for my red or white battery cover so I can show it through my Griffin Reveal look alike case
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Darkpsych0:
I got the Innocase Surface, I really like it. Viewing from the pictures it looks like the casemate is abit thinner but not by much. I was considering the Casemate but I wasn't too sure how much I wanted a case that doesn't really protect the bottom or the top faceplate. Glad you enjoy the case though!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] coffeedragon:
After spending some more time with the Case Mate I've discovered what might be it's only flaw and frankly I don't think I completely blame the case for this one.

The power button on top of the phone is already pretty minimal but with the case it's just slightly harder to actuate. The case comes up close to the button and stands off from the phone about the same distance. That means the button is pretty much flush with the case.

Now Case Mate didn't design the phone to have a slightly-too-small power button (I don't care for it even without the case) but they might have considered leaving a bit more clearance to make it a little easier to press.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] deaffob:
Cool review. Incipio Red feather user here. I posted my review on Amazon.com, mine is the only review that's posted there. I've been very happy with my Red case as it is my favorite color and it is the thinnest out there(1mm).

I have to disagree with your comment on camera protection, the incipio feather has an ample lip which covers the camera. The only thing you can expect from these thin case is to have just a tiny lift off from surfaces and the feather gives the lift. I honestly do not see the point of thicker lip because it literally does nothing more than just a slightest lift off.

However since I've never touched the Case Mate Barely There, I have to take your words on the material. I wish they make more bright colors.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Ducaticorse:
Very nice review! I went with the CaseMate as well and I really like it for easy pocket carry. I had the same concern with reduced ease of access to the power button, so I did a quick mod on mine with a Dremel wheel. I will probably go back and clean it up so it doesn't look so angry-beaver-ish :D but it is really nice to use with this tiny modification and with the change it truly lives up to the "Barely There" name.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
If rooted I can MOD your ROM to make it so you can pull the phone out of sleep with the volume keys, that seems to be working for me.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] spiderj:
nice review. I am catching this thread a little late I know but the aspect I dont like about this case is I dont see much protection for the screen in the event of a drop. I would never think that would be an issue but two days ago my Dinc2 feel out of my bag as I was putting it in my car and landed face down flat on its screen and shattered the screen. Had to dish out the deductible for a replacement. Now I am using a TPU case as is has just enough lip to protect the screen if it happened again.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] per cc:
I want a case similar to this, but it just doesn't protect the screen enough.

Hi!

Have ONE question, IF i want to use hTC unlocking to get first of all a different ROM (going from german device to a Europe 401) is that possible with hTC unlocked bootloader, and will i also be able to install custom ROM's with this new unlocked bootloader? Or does this requires CMR to do so?

I'm just wanting to add a few additional albums to the gallery so I dont have just one massive folder...how can I do that?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eraursls1984:
Add an album to your SD card and it'll show up in the gallery.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] googlemyahoo:
I tried doing that recently cause that's what someone else told me but it never showed up...exactly where do I put it?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eraursls1984:
Anywhere on the SD, on the root or in any other folder. Sometimes your gallery will automatically scan for new media and it'll show up, sometimes it'll be a day or so before it'll show up. I don't know how to get it to search manually, there may be a setting if you hit the menu button while in the gallery. There is an app called SD rescan (I think that's the name) but it takes forever.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] googlemyahoo:
Thanks for the info, I'll try again
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] googlemyahoo:
Still no joy, I put the folder in 2 separate places and it still isn't showing. I'm at work but will post where I put them later today.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eraursls1984:
Maybe try a reboot to see if that will rebuild the library, or download and run SD rescan

[HTC EVO 3D] affliction:
do i just flash it or do i need to move files? sorry the last boot i had to moves files around
[HTC EVO 3D] SpartanEvo:
No worries. I can remove the link if you have a specific video you would like to post instead...
[HTC EVO 3D] SpartanEvo:
It will depend on the rom your using. If you un-zip the rom your using, look in /system/customize/resource and there should be (2) .zips;

Sprint_bootanimation

Sprint_downanimation

If not, look in /data/local.

I can probably package a .zip update for you.

Edit** If you have the bootanimation in /system/customize/resource try flashing the attached .zip

Edit*** Removed Xron bootanimation.zip until I can get it fixed...
[HTC EVO 3D] affliction:
ok i am going to give it a go

Works great but doesn't fit perfectly to the screen size (there is a small black bar left on the top and on the bottom of the screen)

could someone adjust this?

Or does anyone know where to download ICS Boot Animation?

Ummm. This thread was started in AUGUST, when Honeycomb was still relevant.... If you want the bootanimation from it, then cool, cuz it still looks neat, but I don't think anyone's gonna "adjust" it for you, when it came from a "nevershouldhavebeenreleased-icsisgonnafixalltheproblemswecaused" version of an Android OS.

Hello All,

I am having a difficult time finding the 100% stock VZW galaxy tab files to flash my tab back to stock with. The only ones I find are rooted. I need to take this back to verizon since my GF is going to be using it now and she doesnt want anything custom on it at all.

Does anyone have these files or a link to them?

THANKS!

Awesome work, it looks great! I loved the TSM work for the fascinate and can't wait to see the awesome things you and the others that switch over bring to the inc2. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jkhonea:
One problem popped up on mine. When loading apps back, many of my previously purchased apps were no longer showing as purchased on the Market and I couldn't seem to link them again. Haven't seen this happen before. Any thoughts?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mdspace:
try clearing your market data
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jkhonea:
Cleared data and cache and still was occurring, even after reboot. I'll take a look again.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jrizk07:
It takes some time for everything to re sync up again. Sometimes what might work faster is clearing the data out of the market and allowing it to sync up again.

It may not work but it's worth a shot, I do know that your purchases are not gone and they will eventually show up on their own.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
thats strange...did you check to see if your google account was still linked?

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ben805:
I'm a big fan of nitsuj17's work, was running the community rom 1.3 then kangbang 2.0/2.1 on our Fascinates before I got them exchanged for the Dinc2. Loved the Bang series then, and now I'm glad to see you here!! :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
Flash went fine. After setup...had a freeze. I was OCed to 1.19...shouldn't have been that but maybe. Reboot and everythings been flying after putting back to stock speed. I'm on the vanilla patch. This Rom is awesome. As it stands. Only thing id change personally is an aosp GB bar instead of froyo. Great job. Going to put it to the test the next couple days and see how she does.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
Wiping data is always a best praxtice...but tbh if you were on 1.0 there is really no need to
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
And is the consensus that gb status bar is preferred for.the vanilla version? I don't mind switching to it...just thought people were burnt out on it by now
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
Its just peace of mind for me knowing I have the newest thing lol. But you're the dev...can do as you please. I think with that and all notifications GB as well. This rom should be perfect. Only hiccup I found so far is settings in mms force closes. Who needs it anyway! Running with LPP now and all is good.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
thanks for the feedback :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
No mms setting issues here?

I like the rom so far. The quick settings are great.

Maybe not your cup of tea but is the sense 3 lockscreen something you're considering? I like to disable the sense but the stock android one is messed up. Well, at least the unlock sliding tab is....

Anyone else having problems with thier ringtones not working? If I go into "Settings" and then "Sound" it shows my notification ringtone checked off correctly but the incoming text message ringtone is always wrong. When I go to "Personalize" then "Soundset" then "New Soundset" there's a line that says "Message" and has a triangle Play button but I can't change it. It is the same wrong sound that keeps playing and I didn't add it there.

Anyone know how to change it or how to make "Messages" be over rided by "Notifications" as far as ringtones go? Please help me. Thanks guys.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] pol45:
You have to go in to your message app..go into settings...go into notifications n choose default ringer
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Fasinationinmotion:
I know most people dont really like it but would it be possible to include the Galaxy S 2 lockscreen into this? Vanilla or Sense.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
Well, the problem isn't related to your ROM, just that HTC didn't clean it up or something.

Issues with it the lockscreen, mind you this is renaming the HTClockscreen apk to use the default one. I'm not on your AOSP mod.

It's not the Gingerbread one, not a big deal.

the unlock swype isn't right. The text isn't displayed on the unlock swype and if you do it slow, and the tracking isn't right, it will bounce back. You have to be fast for it to unlock.

Again, not an issue that needs to be pursued, but the Sense lockscreen is so uninspiring that I would rather have the default.

Looking forward to a flashable 3.0 lockscreen though :D

Negative. Checks out fine here.
