[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pauley:
Has anyone had their white Vivid ship that was previously backorder status? I ordered on 6 Nov at 2300 hours, but it's still showing backordered. I'm a little ticked off that AT&T shipped my secondary line alone (not a Vivid) for new service with the primary being backordered.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Boomwaller:
Ordered a white one Monday arrived today! I went to the store because online site wouldnt let me order a white one. Anyways loveing it beats the black one by a longshot. Just my 2 cents lol
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Zytryx:
Hmm never though to ask the store if they can order one for me, I know they don't carry it, and I can't get it in Chicagoland.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pauley:
Yeah I wish I could try via store, but gotta do it thru Premier. I just wish they wouldn't have shipped till the whole order is ready to ship, that really irritates me. I don't want to go thru porting and activating as a single line, then switching to a family plan, porting remainder number, closing Sprint account... that's too much pro-raping and hassle. I did get sent an add'l SIM card separately then the other phone, guess I could throw it in my old Nokia N75 lol.

Any shipping updates fellow Premier customers?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bjg222:
I ordered mine on Sunday around 4 EST, just arrived in by FedEx today. Never showed on the website as backordered.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] combsrm77:
You order on ATT website? Using my zip in/near Atlanta I get black as my only option.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pside15:
Mine was ordered through a business premier account at 3pm Monday afternoon. It showed back-ordered until last night. It shipped from Texas and will be here tomorrow. I'm in the Atlanta area as well and got it for $99.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bjg222:
I did, but I used a little trickery. The primary address on the account is in North Jersey, which (together w/ NYC) is one of the select markets offering the white phone and discounted pricing. So when I placed the order, I logged in to upgrade so it gave me the North Jersey options, then I just changed the shipping address to Atlanta! :-) It ended up shipping from Texas as well.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] AnyMal:
Maybe it's just me, but I find it extremely annoying that at&t is doing this price shuffle across different regions. We all pay for the SAME service with the SAME money, so why should we pay different prices? Perhaps it's time for EECB :mad:
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pside15:
It is definitely strange and doesn't make any sense to me whatsoever. I can't really complain because I was one of the lucky ones that got it for $99, but I would definitely be pissed off if I would have had to pay $199 for it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] radi0chik:
They wouldn't sell it to me for 99, but my contract isn't up till August. I threatened to cancel early and go get Verizon's Moto Razr, so they offered me a 20 dollar discount for the next 3 months , which essentially brought the price down to 140. So I'm getting a white one (supposedly) tomorrow. This was talking to the retention department.

Things I'm looking forward to: FM radio, Notification LED (boo captivate), front and back cameras (video chat here I come!).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dcjes:
I love my white vivid. I was 1 of 3 people outside the store waiting for them to open on Sunday. I think 1 of them just had some questions.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] renden:
I'm also in ATL, but I'm on the EPP and they do offer it in white for me.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Simba501:
I played with the white version in-store. It's sexy. I'm seriously considering picking it up.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jpitch2415:
I walked into an att store (Houston) and asked about the white and they said they haven't sold a white yet
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lcaputo:
At&t store by me had a lot of them both color options... Really like the white one...recommended
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] radi0chik:
Just got my white one. LOVE IT.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] doktor buknasty:
Just returned my black one and picked up this sexy white one
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Simba501:
Once development picks up, I want to pick it up (white).

Can you get the Vivid in white if not available online.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rodger-sp:
Got the white today it looks totally wicked.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] stryker759a:
Has anyone got the white version in any of the Dallas stores? I keep calling around and no one has it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] saywhat4118:
I work here in southlake TX and we have some. Just got them in and I really like the white one.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] markjo:
I went to the AT&T store yesterday just out of curiosity and fell it love with the white one outta nowhere.. so today I'm going back and paying the $35 restocking fee just to get one.. although I don't know if that would be possible without paying more to equal the new $199.99 price. Anyone think so? Maybe I can complain about my headphone jack and get a replacement, only white..
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] carlosjcar:
I got mine over the phone. I got 3 months early upgrade @ 99.99 next day shipping. I am in Puerto Rico and I am premier IRU. Could only be happier if we had root and Carrier IQ paid me indemnification for snooping in my personally indentifiable data without mi consent!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jayv81:
I originally ordered a white one online and got the backorder status. Me being impatient cancelled the order and got a black one.

I live in a non LTE area and have no white vivids in the stores. But I was in Atlanta this weekend and knowing that they have them there decided to bring all my stuff and try for an exchange.

The att store there was very helpful in exchanging no questions asked and didn't even charge me a restock fee. All I did was tell them I wanted a white one cause I prefer how it looks.

And I love they white vivid. Very nice phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] trparky:
I just installed the new EP4 Debloated, Deodexed, and Rooted ROM and I don't have the TouchWiz Task Manager. I'm wondering if someone can post the APK for it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I take a look after I get off work and see if I can find it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] wampuscat:
One of the roms I've ran had a link with all the Samsung Widgets they took out. I wanna say it was in there. But it was listed on the first post. May browse thru all the rom OP's and look for the download
[Verizon Droid Charge] wampuscat:
maybe this is it. just unzip and install apk

Edit......I'm pretty sure this is it
[Verizon Droid Charge] wampuscat:
Somebody downloaded it......was that it
[Verizon Droid Charge] stranula:
It worked for me, thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] mromblad:
dont install it, just place it in /system/app

whoever debloated took it out. always better to use a bloated and use titanium to debloat yourself.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jmorton10:
Why is it "always better"??

I recently installed the debloated/deodexed version of the latest leak and I love it.

That task manager was really the only thing I missed and it took about 10 seconds to install it.

~John
[Verizon Droid Charge] mromblad:
I used the term always better in the sense that you have full control over what stays and what doesn't. Debloated roms are great, but they aren't always a reflection of what a user truly wants or may need from a rom.
[Verizon Droid Charge] zero|fade:
Anyone get this to work with ics? It's the only thing I miss from touchwiz.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amblingaardvark:
I searched all over and cannot find an answer to this question. I have an Vibrant running CM 7.1 nightly #172, and I have ROM Manager Premium. I've read in several places that the CM Nightlies are supposed to be able to be found in ROM Manager, but I can't find them anywhere in ROM Manager. I've tried uninstalling updates, reinstalling them, clearing the cache, but I cannot find a solution. I really like being able to download the nightlies from withing ROM Manager. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Sorry for the n00b question.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dedman:
I can find them on my Vibrant CM 7.1 nightly #158

In ROM manager v4.8.0.2 (Free)

Open Rom manager,

Go to Download Rom (4th item from the top)

The first entry is CyanogenMod Nightlies (under Premium)

Do you have any entries when you open the Download Rom section?

You may need network access for Rom Manager to build the list of available roms.

If you're already on CM7 Nightlies, you should be able to select "Check for ROM Updates" to go straight to the CM7 nightly roms.

D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amblingaardvark:
I tried that, but there aren't any ROM's under the "Premium ROM" section. Also, even though I'm on Cyanogen Mod, when I click "Check for Updates" absolutely nothing happens.. I was just wondering if I'm the only person having this problem, and it looks like I am :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amblingaardvark:
Problem solved now. I wiped everything and started with a fresh install alltogether, now the CM Nightlies are showing up in ROM Manager
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssmr2t:
Just wondering...

Cyanogenmod is so sickly...so nice... But at the same time, their boot animations look so dull... Why is that?

Not complaining by any means... just wondering why they would put all this effort into a customizable rom, yet have the same Andy on a skateboard for so long?

Looks like it came from 1963

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssmr2t:
Who cares? I do enough to post a thread... Im just wondering why their boot animations look like an old school genesis game

Oh well.. Curiosity got the best of me I guess.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidRunner:
Ironic how some people blast other people for not reading. Never once did the OP ask how to find another boot animation. Dicks.

I have always thought the CyanogenMod boot animation was stupid. I haven't changed it though.....
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BravoMotorola:
Lol are you guys kidding? I love the CM7 boot animation! I have seriously never heard of someone not liking it up until now.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssmr2t:

If I made one, I bet Nyancat would have something on me :p

That being said... I guess Im too curious sometimes. I didnt mean for this thread to come off as bashing the CM team by any way.. just wondering.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sk8trix:
Guys this could have been ansewred with few words......they use that animation because they feel like it they are the devs lol so they don't care what like or don't like....and if you don't like it use root explorer and change it plain and simple.....
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sass86:
You can buy absolute root tool from the market, it has several cyanogen boots, and over 200 total.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raunamaxtor:
then just make ur own boot animation, plz respect the developers
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
I offered some bootanim choices not because the OP asked for them but because answering the question he asked is impossible unless your on the CM team. And also because his question is stupid and my post partially brought something useful to a useless thread. Asking why they chose the bootanim they did is about the same as saying I dont like the cyan color why they didn't go with yellow. Or like saying I dont like the name why didn't they call it badassmod. But if I was going to address his question I would like this: Does anybody know why any bootanims were chosen for any ROM? Because the devs did it that way. Thats why.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
In the year 1964 during a hurricane Dr. Anmod was rushing his patients to the hospital basement when he tripped and fell, knocking over a basket of blueberries and hitting his head on the cement. When he came to, dizzy and delerious he notices the smushed berries he was resting on. That fateful day the doctor knew there was something special about the imagery he had seen and documented it in his medical journals complete with a drawing.

Dr Anmod would go on to proclaim that many years from now this image would serve as the entry point for the greatest "custom firmware" of all time. In just one day he single handedly saved his patients, created a piece of custom art, and died for our sins on the cross. Years later after the doctor had long forgotten the whole experience (he suffered from partial amnesia) he met a woman. They grew fond of one another and after he got her pregnant he decided to propose. They got married and Mrs. Anmod gave birth to their only son Cyrus, weighing 8.12 pounds. As fate would have it, both of Cyrus Anmod's parents were killed in a horrible steamroller accident when he was only 13 years old. Cyrus would go on to become an alcoholic and a drug adict weighing 380 lbs. Until one day when his only friend bought him an Android phone. With fingers too fat to properly use the device, Cyrus decided to return to his parents estate and use their exercise room. Running on the treadmill, the power died, and Cyrus ran straight into a wall that revealed a secret passageway to his fathers study room where all his books and advanced knowledge of medicine and programming, wait, did I mention the doctor was also a programmer? Anyways, so Cyrus found the books and the drawing and studied them intensely until he one day built a ROM for Android and the rest is history. So now you know.

this is by no means the official flip cover. the official one replaces the back cover
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] jlarsson1978:
I would say that it is. The image looks like the official one, the info says it is and the article-nr is the official one as well.

so there are two different designs of official flip cover available??.

i would wait for the one which replaces the back cover

it says it clips onto the back, why do you believe that it doesn't?

it says its official, it looks identical to the one that others have shown, the description fits..

It appears to have a different back to the regular flip case.....

However, the pictures all look the same ..........

I ordered one a couple of days ago, like lots on here it seems (availability went from 100 odd to zero quite quickly).

Is this case clearly blue, or very dark blue bordering on black? I'd much rather have a black one but don't want to wait any longer for it to be in stock - the cases in any colour don't appear to be in stock anywhere else.

I did find the same case here, described as being blue/black, does any one think this is the same one?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] paulshields:
Thanks for the pics. I hope the case won't prevent fitting into the official desk or car docks. It's obviously quite an operation to remove the case. I presume it should be fine, but stranger things have happened in the world of Samsung design...;).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fards:
Looks like the official case to me :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] andyiacovou:
Your welcome.

I'm afraid you might have a problem there. I was about to purchase the official desktop dock from an Ebay seller. I asked them to test whether the phone would fit in the dock with the official moulded flip case attached and they said categorically no! I haven't ordered it. When will Samsung learn :mad:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ianjd:
Yes, not only does the flip part of the case stop the device from sliding down on the left side (looking from the front), but the replacement back is actually a bit more substantial and thicker, so the microusb connector probably wouldn't mate properly even if someone took a hacksaw to the dock. Shame, because they're both very nice bits of kit.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] MaskedMagi:
Thanks, that was a massive help. Will order one because of you I think :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] paulshields:

Yes just regular royal mail first class delivery.

no invoice nothing inside just the cover.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Prozac69:
Received mine today as well. Very impressed. Much more sturdy plastic than the original cover.

And, for those that already have it, have you noticed that the camera lens is now slightly recessed as opposed to sitting proud of the cover like it did on the original. So this case now gives better protection to the lens as well. Nice one Samsung. :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] andyiacovou:

my flip case arrived today,

it is a very good solution, works PERFECTLY for phone calls to your ear.. ignore silly naysayers.

amused to note (missed it in the photos earlier) sticker on the box "NOT FOR SALE", I guess someone got hold of the freebies that were to go out as launch bonuses.

can I have my cash back then?

:p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] RavenY2K3:
Does the cover flap about or does it stay shut somehow?

I would like to get one of these but I'm used to getting an all over protection solution, it just seems the edges etc... Will get scratched up to hell with the flip case. Is anyone considering the PDAir "Book style" case?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fards:
if you bend the cover right back to sit the device on it then it doesn't stay shut afterwards, but some gentle tweaking to the "hinge" makes it work fine again.

It tends to drop slooowwly flat for the last few degrees due to the way the leather hits the bezel, after dropping quickly, much like the first slow load cd players (am I showing my age ;) )

I like it
