[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
While it's a great idea, the Moshi isn't worth it. I bought it from the local AT&T store for about $30 and applied it in a couple seconds. I got home and realized that I put it on *slightly* off, so I took it off and washed it, then left it to air-dry. I let it dry for a bit more than 48 hours, and then I picked it up to apply it to my A2. There was STILL bits of residue from the water that was easily visible. I washed it again and dried it 3 more times, getting as much water off the screen as I could, but 2 days later there was still signs of water.

So, unless you can find a place to put a piece of plastic for a week without any dust getting on it, don't even think about washing it. As for the notification LED, I didn't notice it because it was only applied for a few hours, but it's certainly a deal-breaker for me. However, I'm a bit skeptical about Moshi's excuse. How could they NOT know that there was a notification LED for such a device? It sounds to me like the just didn't see it 0_O

Sigh... off to the AT&T store for me to see if I can get a refund, although I threw away that cheap (but expensive!) piece of plastic a couple days ago :\. It's too bad about the notification LED, because otherwise I would be willing to buy that again and just not wash it :(.
[Motorola Atrix 2] crombiecrunch:
I bought one of these and it had the notification light issue, I emailed support and they sent me out a brand new one that corrects the issue for free. My wife has the same phone so I just put it on hers. I really dont need the notification light.
[Motorola Atrix 2] holeshot77:
Don't like these or the extreme guards. I buy mine off ebay for a fraction of the cost and they work fine. Have always protected my screen and never damage anything.

The Moshi makes my screen look grainy.

The Xtreme is too hard to apply. One mess up and you might as well throw it away.

:)
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
That's great! I might try doing that because it's a great screen protector besides the washing/reapplying thing.

EDIT!

I emailed them yesterday and they replied, saying:

Since I don't have the protector with me I emailed them back asking if what I had was enough to exchange: The cardboard slip with instructions/warranty info, the cleaning cloth, and (possibly) the receipt from the AT&T store. I am waiting for a reply.

So, even if they did mess up and forget about the notification LED, they have great support and stay on top of all their products.
[Motorola Atrix 2] dlsnelling:
I love how the moshi screen protector looks on the phone. I'm not big on branding so the black under coating is perfect for hiding the AT&T and Motorola logos. After using an antiglare protector I can't be happy without it. However the dealbreaker for me was how little tackiness it had. Without a case holding the screen protector in place it would shift around in my pocket. Eventually it would slide off completely. I bought two, the first applied by the store associate, the second I applied myself. Same problem both times.
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
After a while of using the protector I think I would prefer a different one. It is very convenient but it is very soft and scratches/marks easily. Their technical support is amazing but the product is just OK... and also pretty expensive.

The feeling of the the screen protector is kind of weird... it's tacky but not tacky at the same time. It is very, very smooth... almost like a really clean chalk board, and you finger can very easily glide across it... but as soon as you apply too much pressure it gets fairly tacky.

It also makes the screen look grainy, although it's bearable.
[HTC EVO 3D] jrockisme:
Hey guys i just got the 3d today and have it rooted. I installed 1 or 2 updates already but still had 1.4. But im curious as to what update exactly changes my hboot to 1.5. can any one help?
[HTC EVO 3D] divedr:
DO NOT OTA UPDATE YOUR PHONE! You do not want the HBOOT 1.5 it will make your life difficult. Stick with your bootloader and if you want to UG do it via a custom ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
The RUU for software verison 2.08 should also update hboot to version 1.5.

Probably best not to load this version unless you're up for an adventure! The

RUU software version 2.08 which also contains Hboot 1.5 patches all previously used exploits. Meaning, a new exploit will have to be developed and released in order to achieve the same unlocked access on Hboot 1.5 as was available for previous versions of Hboot.

Hope that helps answer your question!
[HTC EVO 3D] SketchyStunts:
ahh, its not too bad. Granted i wish i had 1.30 or 1.40 but ADB & Fastboot aren't too bad.
[HTC EVO 3D] jrockisme:
That doesnt answer my question but it does answer which RUU i need to download for my Hboot version. But thanks for that one!
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
Wait I am confused, do you want to have hboot 1.5? If so why?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
If your question, as I read your post was, "what update exactly changes my hboot to 1.5" and you're on the Sprint version of the EVO 3D, then my answer above is correct. Software version 2.08.651.2 contains an update to bootloader version 1.5.

Perhaps I'm wrong in assuming you're on the Sprint device and perhaps you're using a GSM version. I'm not familar with the history of the GSM software versions, but I'm sure somebody else can post up to help clarify. Not sure where else the miscommunication could have occured.

Off the top of my head and to reiterate:

There have only been four updates for the EVO 3D from Sprint for their CDMA version of the EVO 3D.

1.11.651.2, 1.13.651.7, 2.08.651.2 an 2.08.651.3 (no leak RUU yet, only OTA, minor system software/kernel changes, no updated bootloader/radio).

If you're interested in gaining the ability to answer this question yourself, the hboot version is generally listed in the hboot file name of the image provided inside the firmware.zip of the RUU rom.zip (often renamed as PG86IMG.zip) included inside the RUU .exe. Hboot file name is generally, Hboot1.4_signed.img or something similar.

Also, if you feel adventurous, you could open the hboot img in a hex editor and search for the string containing the version number! Thats an adventure I don't take very often.

To obtain the extracted rom .zip files, renamed as PG86IMG.zip files or the original RUU .exe files for any of these software versions which have been leaked online, goo-inside.me keeps a reliable collection: http://www.goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu .

Allowing EVO 3D users to revert back to any previous software version or update to the recent versions.

Hope that helps answer your question with more detail/insight or help anybody coming across this post that might have the same/related questionand resolve any miscommunication! Money back guarantee!
[HTC EVO 3D] pnewgaard:
Agreed, a little more of a pain but also makes you learn things other people may not be savvy on! Great opinion man!
[HTC EVO 3D] ParrSt:
I am sure I know the answer, cause if it were this easy we wouldn't have so many *****ing about 1.5, but if the RUU installs the bootloader, would it be possible to use an RUU of 1.11 or 1.13 to get the older bootloader?

Bob
[HTC EVO 3D] KB112:
No, it won't work. I believe the install will fail and cancel itself.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Short answer: No and I think the exact error people receive is "Main version is older". As far as I recall, main version information is stored in the misc partition.

We've had a few threads on this, usually the title or key phrase is "downgrading" the bootloader.

Essentially, the HTC EVO Shift was able to have the bootloader downgraded two different ways after two different releases, but neither method will work for hboot 1.5.

If you're interested in a longer semi technical explanation, I've quoted my previous posts below for convenience.

Bought the T-mobile galaxy tab 10.1 4g. I am interested in rooting the device so that I can remove unwanted bloatware. I am somewhat concerned by the absence of any comment on the device. I have one week to return it. Should I? Seems that not one single person has an interest in tweaking this device. I thought that this site would have root instructions on line within hours of the November release. I am concerned that it has not. It has version 3.2. Please advise. Thanks.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
The largest number of people here by far have Wi-Fi Tabs (P7510) followed by 3G Tabs (P7500). I'd guess about 15-25% have VZW LTE Tabs. Support for the latter dev wise and even from VZW has been pretty light. The good news is the T-Mobile Tab isn't 4G, but 3G HSPA+, the same as the international P7500. The only difference is it supports T-Mobile's funky AWS bands. Depending on how similar it is to the P7500, you may be able to use its ROMs. Post in the dev section and see if one of the P7500 dev's can help figure it out.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Amphibliam:
Where is x system app?

If you are running the stock ROM that comes with the phone (rooted or not), then the disappearance of system apps is a bug with the stock firmware that comes with this phone.

Why is it gone?

Sometimes when you remove apps from the "menu/applications/manage applications" menu in settings, a plethora of system apps are deleted. You probably just noticed the one that caused you to make a thread about it. If you go back into the manage applications menu, you will probably see that many other systems apps are greyed out, including calculator, google services framework, and others. It is unknown why this happens when removing apps from that menu, it is just an annoying bug.

How do I fix it?

Well, there are two solutions. One, very simple, is a factory reset, and everything will be fixed. However, you will lose all your apps and data if you aren't rooted. The other solution, the way I chose to go after this happened to me 3 times, is to root and load any other custom ROM, I chose Incredible 2 HD.

I hope this thread helps answer people's questions. I have been seeing a lot of posts on this lately and wanted to provide a complete answer for people all in one place.

Read the comment on the link basically what he is saying is that, it is a little difficult as evo 3d is a 3d phone and has a very custom ui on it.

Hence it is not likely to get a plain ice cream sandwich. Also HTC were fairly quite about the ICS announcement till today revealing that most of their phones are getting ICS early next year.

Anyways not to be a pessimistic but the facts are facts.

Thanks for the update, it seems deep idle is now working in the top=on state. Also another thing I have noticed with the newest test build is that deep idle (top=on) is being used even while 4G is turned off. Nothing settings wise has changed since your last kernel but it looks like while top=off is being used most of the time, according to idle stats top=on is being used a little less then 10% of the time (with 4G off). Anyways just an observation I thought I would report, as it doesn't seem to be causing any problems.
