Silesh, I really like your Honeycomb theme, I'm downloading it now. By the way, which is the color code of that blue? so that I can configure it for all the text.

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] sileshnair:
Pressed - #586991. Selected - #c4cbdb
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] vigos:
You're great, Pressed - #586991 did the trick, thank you!
[HTC EVO 3D] JAMRZ69:
So i bought a set of skull candy headphones with the built in mic and answer/end call and skip track buttons but the controls dont work for some reason i tried them on a non rooted evo 3d and they worked fine im wondering if root somehow disabled something im running synergy nightly just wondering if anybody else has had this problem and if there is a fix for this,any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] tjb3401:
That is a synergy thing. Back with my og EVO I had the same issue; the buttons worked with other ROMs but not with synergy. Maybe pm a few of the team synergy members suggesting that they add that feature back in.
[HTC EVO 3D] JAMRZ69:
Cool thanks for the info i'll hit up the synergy team for some help

Thats the leaked images of icecream sandwich, not really sure whether some thing can do such thing yet. May be if there is a released SDK from google we can see launchers and other stuff from that here.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjohnjuan:
hey guys im new to the MyTouch 4G I got it rooted and everything. My ? is are there any available kernels with Voodoo color or another program similar available? I came from the Samsung Vibrant and the screen on there combined with Voodoo made that thing look amazing, and I wanted to try it out on MT4G . I looked in the Development section but nothing said voodoo outright...Thanks guys!!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
Voodoo is only for Galaxy and all of its brother devices....With The Amoleds and the SuperAmoled Pluses :p Have you forgotten that the screen tech is different on HTC & ol Sammy? Htc uses the SLCD[SuperLCD], and Sammy has custom high tech screen that has real black and what not.:cool:
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattbradfo:
that would be cool but no
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjohnjuan:
I just thought they would have some type of screen enhancement mod. But thanks guys.

Ok so I downgraded from 7712 to RUU_Schubert_TMOUS_1.54.531.02_Radio_5.51.09.29a_22.32.50.10U_by_ansar in order to get the T-Mobile firmware and radio update and also to fix my twitter bug by updating from there. Now when I go to people the new and search buttons have squares with a circle and an X in the middle instead of icons. I am annoyed, I tried a hard reset, same thing, any suggestions on how I could fix this? :confused::confused::confused:
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajivkarai:
try reflashing the rom.. it may help..
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shad0ken:
Fixed!

I did some more searching and found a solution on technet. Looks like an incomplete upgrade so I restored and tried again and all is well.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shad0ken:
Lol, just as I was replying, thanks. :D

Look at otterboxes new case for the xperia play. I can tell you its the best case for the phone.
[Xperia Play Accessories] gjpax:
do you have one ? if so does it make the phone feel a lot bigger
[Xperia Play Accessories] ozzmanj1:
I had an otterbox case for both my droid 1 and D2G. Loved them both. Wouldnt buy anything else. On my OG, I had the ring break 4 times and each time I emailed Otterbox they sent me out a free overnight replacement at not cost to me. Super awesome customer service. Here is the link for the otterbox for Xperia Play

http://www.otterbox.com/sony-xperia-play-cases/sony-xperia-play-cases,default,sc.html
[Xperia Play Accessories] gwaine:
Looks very similar to the Verizon one except the Verizon one has some design details (circles around the SE logo) and doesn't have the Otterbox logo. The Verizon one is substantially cheaper too.
[Xperia Play Accessories] subcu1ture:
So it broke twice and you are recommending them :)

Obviously costs them **** all if they are sending replacements like they know they are going to break.
[Xperia Play Accessories] Mozza2k11:
Im using the Trident Aegis Series for Sony Ericsson Xperia Play http://www.tridenteer.com/categories/Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-Play/Aegis-Series-for-Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-Play/.

Its a very good case i highly recommend it. Id say either the otterbox or the trident case would be a wise choice for a case.
[Xperia Play Accessories] Dyelon:
Hey dude, what does your aegis case look like at this point? I had mine for 4 days and on the 5th day I look at it and theres an outline on the front and back of it in a brown/greenish hue color. I tried alcohol, vinegar, cleaning solution to get it of but it won't go. I'm starting to speculate it is the color rubbing off.

Any ideas to fix this? I think the material is polycarbonate.
[Xperia Play Accessories] Michaelolio:
I've got the Verizon black case (the one with the circles rippling out from the SE logo) and it's definitely a case that looks good on it. I think if you dropped it at just the wrong angle though you could still mess up the phone pretty bad. Again, small chance to hit the floor in that way and a great looking case that gives personality to the phone.
[Xperia Play Accessories] Mozza2k11:
I cannot see what you are describing. Mine looks like the day i got it. Apart from all the crap that sometimes sticks to the black polycarbonate parts but a simple wipe gets rid of most of it.

What colour is yours? Mines red, not sure if it matters. Tbh tho mines never in and out of my pocket (normally in my hand or in the car or on my desk e.t.c) so maybe i have this to look forward too? lol. Have you tried contacting trident and seeing if they have any advice?

I wouldnt have thought its the colour rubbing off since it should have been moulded in the colour of the case? Not coated? Not sure bud. Sorry i cannot offer any advice.
[Xperia Play Accessories] KoolMoeDee KMD:
Ok so im basically tossing up between the otter and trident case as they are the main branded ones.

Can someone using any of these cases let me know which one makes the phone thicker than the other or what one has advantages over the other.

Im gonna grab the one which makes the play less thick with it on.
[Xperia Play Accessories] kakit78:
I dunno about you guys, i have tried all sort of design case, flipbook, flipdown, silicon casing, rubbercasing, hard casing...

and i think the best is what it is out of the box

xperia have the perfect thickness and the shape is very grib friendly, I dont see why we need to add on casing..

casing is for Iphone guy whose iphone is so fragile... xperia play cover is just a plastic, and it is easily changable... why add casing?

the choice is yours.
[Xperia Play Accessories] Dyelon:
The aegis case is extremely comfortable and nice looking....I switched from cyan to dark green and I like both....dark green stains less though.....I liked otter case but its only in black? Lame...I love colored cases....bling bling mofos!
[Xperia Play Accessories] orangesunshine:
i`ve ordered the Trident aegis case in this army green colour,wanted the cyan at first but it`s a little too flashy .-) after i`ve read fantastic reviews,it is expensive,never spent that much on a phone case but i think from the looks and Protection it`s one of the best cases for the phone.

also,for me personally its very hard to play longer than half an hour with the xplay because the part with the gamepad is too thin,the outer edges are somewhat sharp and make it uncomfy to hold,resulting in aching fingers.and i push the power button often in shooting games making my screen go off..very annoying .-)

also the L and R buttons are a pain in the ass to press and the volume rocker feels like it`s falling out every second,its too short and it`s got a very cheap feeling..

i had a leather pouch with my xplay but i don`t like those cases as you have to pull out the phone for every little thing,so that pouch always ended without phone in my jacket because in hectic situations you dont have the time to put your phone back in the pouch .-) silicon cases i don`t like either.

Hopefully my Trident Case arrives soon,can`t wait to test it in a extended gaming session,looking forward that it will increase the grip and overall feel.

I got one from ebay for £1.99 delivered. It is a lovely case that adds hardly anything to the hanset in terms of bulk.

[Xperia Play Accessories] Dyelon:
It's pretty solid dude....and good thing you didn't get cyan....I got that at first but the color faded and basically got stains.....they let me send it back for free and now I have the dark green.....it's not as cool looking but it's sleek and still looks the same it did the day I got it
[Xperia Play Accessories] orangesunshine:
my Trident Aegis Case arrived today,took 14days to arrive from california to germany(cheapest delivery method) and i must say:i`m impressed!

the 2 parts fits like a glove,there is a silicone inlay in the backcover side,which makes it even more protected to heavy drops, the overall feel of the case is great,its very sturdy and the extra thickness is indeed really nice for gaming.now it feels like a real handheld portable gaming device! the volume rocker feels much more solid now and it`s optimal to press,also the L and R buttons and the power button doesn`t stick out so obviously as before,so no more nt intended power off while gaming,the case is kinda ergonomically formed .-) the case itself looks like some kind of underwater gear,which is a nice touch imho

only downsides i can find so far,the 4 buttons at the bottom are slightly hard to press because the edge of the cover is very near the buttons.but i think they are nonetheless badly placed/too tiny even without this case.(hoping for ICS on screen buttons).second there is no silicone plug for the usb cable opening,which would be a neat addition.

for the bulkiness,it adds definately some extra bulk and a little weight,you might consider this if you are wearing skinny jeans .-) but for me its ok,as i said,when you game with this case,it feels like a real handheld gaming machine.and theres a trident icon on the back which is anti slip,so no more slipping phone on the desk which is also nice.if you want a great case and the price is ok for you,get this one,especially if you game a lot with the Play,gives a complete new,great feel.

[Xperia Play Accessories] Russsy:
I have the same exact case Splinters69 bought on ebay. It feels really smooth and adds a bit of grip to the xperia play. It hardly adds any extra weight and the price is really good.
[Xperia Play Accessories] Homegrown78:
I disagree!!!!!!!!!!! My otterbox case sits in my drawer as it is designed POORLY!!!! When gaming you can't even use your L or R buttons because the case keeps coming off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe the Otterbox design team didn't see this flaw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This Case really makes gaming suck!!!
[Xperia Play Accessories] CZroe:
The L & R buttons need some kind of shim because it's possible to squeeze fully until your fingers hit the black Otterbox housing without engaging them. The volume buttons are even worse. They needed to make a rubber covering with numbs that push the Back, Home, Menu, and Search keys because it is almost impossible to press them without touching the screen once the area beneath them is occupied by the protector's rim. The clips from the rim also align poorly with the clips from the bottom piece such that they overlap when fully closed and widen the gap between the sliding portions of the phone. It also prevents it from fully sliding closed without a little extra push. There is no silicon liner for the rim and it makes marks in the silver parts in only a couple days of use.

I filed off a couple clips on the top rim piece and it still holds fine but no longer interferes with closing the phone. I also filed off pieces from the bottom side to that it now only clips to the battery door. The remaining clips began cracing from a little bit of removal and reattachment (got a second battery). I would not recommend getting rid of the two on the side with the L & R buttons because they still feel terrible and I think I feel the rubber liner slipping off the volume buttons when I press them, though the L & R buttons are actually easier to use sometimes.

i use the cheapo case from amazon seems fine :d

I like it! Unlike the Otterbox, it has a cut-out near the buttons so as to not interfere with pressing them. :)
[Xperia Play Accessories] s1l3nt:
i use the trident case so far it feels and it looks great
[Xperia Play Accessories] mulllen666:
have had a number of cases for my play

otterbox

cheap hard case

cheap gel case

trident aegis

by far and away the best is the trident well worth the money and doesn't interfere with the phones functionality
[Xperia Play Accessories] kfmounsey:
Does anyone know of a one piece case for the xperia play. You can get hinged and rubber cases for HTC phones that stop the two halves of the phone moving around while in your pocket and allow you to answer the phone quickly but are easily removed if you want to play games or use the phone for satnav. I cannot seem to find this sort of case anywhere for the play.

Cheers

Ken
[Xperia Play Accessories] TheCraig:
Has anyone tried this case: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Amzer-Rubberized-Crystal-Ericsson-Xperia/dp/B004YBOZXO/ref=pd_sxp_f_pt I'm thinking of buying it, pretty cheap.
[Xperia Play Accessories] CZroe:
Two questions:

Is there *ANY* case or skin that covers the Back, Home, Menu, Search keys but leaves thm functional?

Is there *ANY* hard case that is flus along the bottom edge (not raised) so that it does not interfere with pressing the buttons from the bottom side?

The Otterbox case is terrible. The frame that covers the top half has a ridge that blocks your fingers from pressing the buttons without also touching the screen and making accidental selections. The clips also overlap with the clips on the bottom case causing a gap between the two halves of the phone. I learned to align a screen protector along the keys and then lay flat after seeing a previous one interfere with the operation of my home button but the Otterbox protector has no notch for the camera and the film will bisect its view like a bifocal lens if you don't align by the top instead. It probably shouldn't cover the camera at all. :mad: The bottom half should have been a replacement battery cover for rigiditiy without being too thick. It should have had press-through buttons for the volume keys and something similar for the main keys would have salved my complaint about the frame blocking access. So far, I have not seen any protector frame that is flush between the two bottom corners (corners can still be raised/protected).

[Xperia Play Accessories] shaynethepain:
Im using this case. Fits very well and does not peel off the scratchguard on the screen too.
[Xperia Play Accessories] ekklesiaillusion:
I'm using a empire back from a black case and a white front from a cheap amazon case works well and will post links if you like how it looks.
[Xperia Play Accessories] CZroe:
Does the front frame have a ridge along the bottom where the face buttons are? I'm looking for one that is flush down there so that you don't have to push higher on the buttons and accidentally touch the screen.
[Xperia Play Accessories] Wallrunner:
Just bought a Trident Aegis last night based on recommendations I read in this thread before. Looking forward to trying it out!
[Xperia Play Accessories] ekklesiaillusion:
No the buttons are raised compared to the case. I know exactly what you mean all my other cases were like that
[Xperia Play Accessories] CZroe:
Time to find out what that cheap Amazon case was. :) I'd still like one that is raised everywhere else (for protection).
[Xperia Play Accessories] narflynn619:
My Trident Aegis just came today, so I fitted it immediately because I was so excited. And damn, it really looks freakin' sexy and solid! It's really good for me since I'm an EMT. I don't want my phone to fall on asphalt surface while on duty. ;)

Will post screenies later! :D
[Xperia Play Accessories] CZroe:
How will screen shots show your phone's case? ;)
[Xperia Play Accessories] narflynn619:
As promised! ;)

PROS:

- very sexy, very sleek especially the posterior part (it looks like a robot to me)

- very solid, drop protection seems promising

- confidence guaranteed! ;)

- snaps on and off very easily

- very stable once installed

- anterior margin guarantees complete protection of the glass screen when dropped

- comes with a free screen protector (but I didn't install it, you probably know why)

- comes with a free "wipes" for the screen (idk how to call it)

- cool packaging :p

- complete customer support and manual

- comes with its own lanyard eyelet (bottom left of the case)

- power and volume buttons are very easy to press

- speakers are not completely covered

- added grip

CONS:

- makes an already bulky/heavy phone even bulkier/heavier

- shoulder buttons really became harder to press, but a little "re-practice" can circumvent it

- 4 front buttons are harder to press, maybe because of the lower margin of the front case

- heat dissipation may probably become a problem, I noticed a longer cool down after installing the case (via Sense Small 1x4 clock widget's battery temperature monitor)

This case really meets my requirements, most especially for my work. Now I can bring my phone on duties even if we have multi-casualty incident from motor vehicle accidents! ;)
[Xperia Play Accessories] CZroe:
My ideal case would include:

1) a battery door replacement that still guides the speakers and microphone and depresses the intrusion detection switch (for SafeSD) and allows access to the original lanyard attachment point. This would allow it to be thinner.

2) a dip on the bottom edge near the four Android face buttons while still being raised on the four corners and/or completely around the other three edges. This would allow you to press the buttons from below without accidentally touching the screen and sending accidental inputs.

-or-

2) a press-through membrane that protects and raises the four Android buttons and possibly makes them easier to press (the chrome paint flakes off and needs protection too) and at least retains the ability to press them without accidentally touching the touchscreen.

3) port protection for the headphone/microphone and microUSB ports

4) an inner material that will not scratch the finish when dust gets inside the case like the Otterbox Commuter top frame is guilty of for the Xperia PLAY and even the official iPhone bumper case causes on an iPhone 4/4S. That's even if that means having an adhesive to hold the frame on (better than the stupidly arranged Ottebox clips, lolmirite?).

5) Fully exposed/exposable L & R buttons, even if that means having some snap-on covers dangling or a big bump behind them so that they don't contact a surface if dropped or set down (could be less big with the battery door replacement design I mention as #1).

I may add more later. :)
[Xperia Play Accessories] cj360:
As for make ng it easy to get to the battery I don't think you'll find a case with it. Unless its builtin like an extended battery. But I love my trident case. It stops the bar-of soap feeling and I like how the volume and power buttons are not flush and IMO more responsive and better overall

sent from my UNLOCKED R800x how about yours?
[Xperia Play Accessories] CZroe:
I just got my Trident Aegis case and, yes, I like that the press-through volume and power buttons enhance their usability, but the Back, Home, Menu, and Search buttons need the same thing! Instead, it HARMS their usability by making you touch the touchscreen accidentally even more often than before in order to operate them. At the same time, it BLOCKS your left speaker! No doubt, some audio can escape from the nearby headphone jack cut-out, but there is no specific cut out and the one for the right speaker fires it BACKWARDS instead of down. This looks like it was designed by one of those idiots who doesn't realize that he/she is only getting HALF the music when they walk around with one earbud dangling without setting the output to mono. Anyway, I am happy with the touch and feel and sturdiness, but I do have more complaints. Speaking of the cutout for the headphone jack, many people like myself NEVER plan to use it in the age of Bluetooth, so there should be an optional fitted plug to go in there to protect it from water. I complained about this with all iPhone cases too, but this one is surprisingly big and exposed, even continuing on to the front frame piece, while at the same time not being quite big enough to expose the left speaker. It didn't help my impressions much that the phone graphic insert was upside-down. There's also no reason for the bits above the L & R buttons if they are going to be exposed anyway. Give me more room for larger fingers!

Grrr... I wish I was designing these cases. I would make one that replaces the battery door for a slim design and apes OEM colors and has press-through buttons with press-through or fully exposed face buttons and rubber port/jack plugs and exposed L & R buttons, etc.
