BSE has a screen protector for the MT4GS and I've used it for the Milestone... it was decent (I can live with the orange colouring after a year). Is there a reason no one recommends it for this phone? Is the shape incorrect? How does it compare to the Invisibleshield?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] xdaznx:
I am planning to use the screen protector that comes with the Trident aegis case.... I will let everyone know how it works and what my thoughts are!!

Thanks for the tips and tricks :cool:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] xdaznx:
NICE

The screen protector that came with the trident case worked flawlessly... No problems.... I used the applicator card and the cleaning cloth it came with and the steamy shower method :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Steamy shower?

Just my spare change.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Limewirelord:
I've got a ReaLook screen protector and it works great. *Very* easy to apply and it fits almost edge to edge. Some people have said it's a bit larger than the actual screen, but I've got no issues with it besides needing to line it up properly.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] xdaznx:
Ran a hot shower and steamed up the bathroomt o reduce the dust in the air :D

ZAGG Invisable Shield

I've had Zagg Invisable Shield installed on my last 3 phones (below) and plan to on my new phone I just got the other day. They are really thick and i will admit take a little getting use to but i feel they give the highest amount of protection. After i sold my HTC TP2 i still had the back to it (i had two) and being bored one day I decided to imitate what I seen on the demo videos by taking a key to it. I can say i scratched that thing to all hell and when i peeled off the back there wasn't a single mark on it. I was really impressed with this so i have been buying it ever since.

HTC Touch Pro 2

HTC Mytouch 3g slide

HTC HD2
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cmraymond:
Bought some from ebay for 6 bucks for 2. Just got the Trident case for19. 95 and it comes with a screen protector. That one is good too. Just get the one's that have two peel off sides, similar to Real Look and they are the best. Don't like Zagg, too sticky feeling.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] htccraze:
Yea i posted this on another post but since you meantioned the Trident case i had found the blue version online for only $14 (shipped).

I do admit when i 1st bought a ZAGG for my old phone it took me a couple weeks to get use to it. I found that it would not slide as easily as others that was half the price. What i ended up doing though was adjusting the angle i was pressing down on a little. Sounds odd I know but I rather try and get use to something that will give better care for my phone then use something thats sub-grade IMO. I also needed to clean it more often to keep the slide motion as smooth as possible. I had a really cheap screen protector on my HTC TP2 and when i peeled it off to send it in for a warranty replacement due to the charger port not working i found a few scratch marks made by me using a cheap $2 one i found off ebay. Now this might of just been the brand i ended up using but i had been to scared to go back. lol.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cmraymond:
I just took off the cheap one I bought from ebay, screen looks brand new, no scratches. I don't notice any difference between that one and Real Look.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] htccraze:
This was based on what i noticed but a lot could contribute to it like the quality of the screen protector, how long its been used, and perhaps even nail length could all play a role.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cmraymond:
I just bought screen protectors for my husband's Sensation, six came in a pack and they suck. So you were right, some are better than others. Lol
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] htccraze:
I believe we have Gorilla Glass installed on our phone so I'm a little less concerned now about leaving scratches on it. I'll likely continue to use a ZAGG screen protector based on personal preference, after all I've been using this product since the days of my TouchPro 2. I can't say for sure though but here is a list of the phones currently with it. As you can see the MyTouch 3G, MyTouch 3G Slide & the MyTouch 4G are listed so hopefully our device does indeed have it installed but the list hasn't been updated recently. I seen someone post this video of my other phone (the HTC HD2) being tested with a variety of stuff like keys and a razor blade showing just how

incredibly

tough Gorilla Glass really is.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cmraymond:
Hopefully our device does have it. What is funny is when I put the protector on the Sensation I cleaned the screen and there was a small spot I couldn't get off, it doesn't appear to be a knick but I couldn't get it off! The Sensation is listed as having Gorilla glass, funny.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] marc12868:
It doesn't have gorilla glass it is a plastic screen. I know how tough gorilla glass is and I wish it had gorilla glass but it doesn't. If you flick the screen gently it sounds like how plastic sounds, also I have a scratch on mine (bought it used that way, small and not very noticeable) that is the scratch you would get on a plastic screen not a glass screen.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] htccraze:
I tried to go to a few other sites to read about if it did or not and they all suggest the site i already listed above. It would seem pretty stupid for them to do the three Mytouch models before the 4G slide and then not the slide. I will likely contact T-mobile or HTC to find out because i'm just nosey and want to know for sure. lol. :)

I will report back with the news either way.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Narhim:
I got an extreme guard for 5usd from their page directly and it's great...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] MT4GS:
Actually what is really stupid is T-Mobile's naming scheme.

How is the first MyTouch model even remotely related to our MyTouch 4G Slide?

It was the same mess with their "Touch" models, bunch of completely different phones with same/sim names...

Them dumb corporate bean counters, they always think that if some product was popular, giving the same name to another product will make it popular and sell too... I bet they would have named each and every of their phones an "iPhone" if that name wouldn't have been already trademarked lol

So, have you contacted them and got any reply yet?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
I bought this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Anti-Scratc...?pt=US_Tablet_Accessories&hash=item4601b42e2b for my GTab 10.1 and just grabbed a second one to make several for my phones after the horrid experiences I had with those cellophane thin expensive ones TMobile sells. After trimming the radiused corners off I still got 6 after cutting on a full sized paper cutter. They are about 10 times the thickness of TMobiles "SaranWrap" Crap, EASY to apply with NO bubbles and they stay on great. Very durable too considering that comes out to about 50 cents per screen.
[General Questions and Answers] Phateless:
Am I the only one having issues? So far Voice Actions barely works for me on 4 different devices with CM7.

Vibrant, myTouch 4G, Sensation, G2x.

It seems most of the time when I try to use Voice Actions the phone doesn't "hear" anything I say. Nothing registers. I have tried with and without headphones plugged in.

Sometimes it works, but most of the time it's just dead. Has anyone else encountered this? It's irritating the **** out of me and I can't figure out how fix it.
[General Questions and Answers] orgwizard:
might be...

I use mine from time to time...is a vibrant...and seems to work fine...

only anomaly I see from time to time is when bluetooth headset is attached, some times the internal mic seems to stop working.

I'm on stable 7.1.0.1...

one of the reasons I actually left the stock build was because randomly, after using bluetooth headset and disconnecting, I would loose all system sounds on the device, and the mic stopped working with everythign except phone calls..
[General Questions and Answers] Phateless:
That's what I mean. Voice actions launches but the mic appears not to be on. Very annoying, especially when driving.
[General Questions and Answers] abhimahi:
not only in cm7 it has never worked well...on and off
[General Questions and Answers] Phateless:
It seems worse on the glacier for some reason.

BGR confirming as well.
[HTC Amaze 4G] smatthew45:
sweet! i knew it was a good idea to order this phone! lol :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] iGoOsE76:
Give me my ics please...
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
Awesome! Can't wait for it! So glad I got this phone!
[HTC Amaze 4G] eggydrums:
I think I saw this like a month ago
[HTC Amaze 4G] AJ26T:
Well that was posted in Nov 2011 so we kinda knew that but if anyone saw the thread I opened yesterday before it was locked Tmo is going to start testing ics on amaze n sensation in the coming days just a fyi
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
Okay so I am running a custom rom how can i make sure i know when the update is available? SO EXITED!
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
I'll have it leaked :) before
[HTC Amaze 4G] heyodee:
it? You have leaked Sense ICS for the Amaze? You for real X :-/
[HTC Amaze 4G] jimczyz:
And knowing you, it will be rooted. :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
no i will have it before ota though :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] asesino:
^^^^^ pass it on.I appreciate ur work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] AJ26T:
I'm sure u will
[HTC Amaze 4G] adslee:
Can't wait to see some ICS on this phone, even though I prefer AOSP over Sense, I'm actually pretty interested to see what HTC's Sense is going to look like on top of ICS :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] jimczyz:
I'm sure you will my friend, I'm sure you will.;)
[HTC Amaze 4G] alx294:
x i have complete faith in that :) haha and also, de-sensing a rom isnt all that hard, once it drops we'll get a de-sensed version shortly after :) if not by x or another dev, ill release my own :) cuz in all honesty their roms would be 81636482 times better than mine.... xD
[HTC Amaze 4G] jcjackjay:
its better than nothing :D

btw, your picture. I am in love with it. A7X♥
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
im making desend one for sure
[HTC Amaze 4G] jmhalder:
Fast boot OEM lock

Then run the ruu, I'm guessing the hboot/radios will get updated, even if you want to go to a custom ICS from/hack, you'll want to RUU it once so you have those updates, mind you, HTC will not really "break" root with this, its as simple as a unlock through fastboot, again, then custom recovery, then script to root again.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
Like he said. It's that simple, you should be familiar with this process already since you're running a rooted ROM already. I plan to do just that myself when it's out.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rubyman94:
Dang this thread is still active?!
[HTC Amaze 4G] wardfan220:
Not anymore.

Too many ICS threads, let's keep it all in one speculation thread please.
[HTC Amaze 4G] fuego77:
Sweet.I'm guessing with ICS, the phone could be used full potential (dual core) and gpu?
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
Your ROMs freakin' rock. Keep up the good work!
[HTC Amaze 4G] gypsy214:
if you say so i believe you
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndG404:
am i the only one who looks through these threads everyday to check if ICS is available?
[HTC Amaze 4G] AJ26T:
No lmao
[HTC Amaze 4G] alx294:
hey thanks :D glad to see more A7X fans here :D haha i live in ohio so i saw em 3 times in 2011, nightmare after christmas tour, rock on the range, and the buried alive tour. best days of my life <3

everday...? haha bro im on here every hour....
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
Yep same for me every hour
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
Haha youll see a lot more metal fans on XDA the more you go through it. The Keyboardest from Chimaira deved on the Atrix back when i had it. thought that was really cool
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
let me tell you guys ics with the amamze is hell a nice :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] bmbrad:
stop teasing us lol! Cant wait to see what you got for us x! :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:

[HTC Amaze 4G] spikiex3:
Can't wait! Keep up the hard work.. :) Some of us on here actually appreciate it! Don't let the douche's get to you!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] fuego77:
Lmao really ? Your REALLY going to tease is like that
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
well cant share a build till its 100% becuase of ****ing noobs so i can share pics/videos/words :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] fuego77:
X have u seen the development on the G2, not going to lie. I miss it because they have ics running real good =]. Me jealous. Aha
[HTC Amaze 4G] bmbrad:
would love to see a video preview ;););););) nudge nudge :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
done be jelous :D we will have better build soon no eta but if you want development to go faster help get my friend preludedrew 2 = faster then 1
[HTC Amaze 4G] zPacKRat:
gosh darn nubs
[HTC Amaze 4G] alx294:
SERIOUSLY?! wow haha I would've never guessed he knew his way around android xD

And x, bro, maybe do what NRGZ did and make a social group for non-moons...? Haha jk bro. In all seriousness though, I can't wait for ics. I used your current release for a whole day just to play with the lockscreen... Hahaha
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
I like how it looks, but just out of curiosity, is the T-Mobile/CM7 theme engine compatible with ICS?
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
idk its aosp source not
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
It should work in the ROM if it's AOSP. Try compiling the code from T-Mobile's Googlecode page and see. It just might work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
not worth time right now
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
No worries. I was looking into possibly making an installer zip from the apks that could be flashed via recovery, but it's turning out to be a pain in the ass without knowing how to code.
[HTC Amaze 4G] alrosal:
All great developers began as noobs at some point. Some of the best future developers are currently noobs, no reason to alienate an entire group of potential contributors. Just saying.....
[HTC Amaze 4G] lorddart:
With the assumption your theory is accurate... Those that progressed from being new weren't the ones who asked questions that had been answered already, or those that pissed and moaned about something that was clearly mentioned in the op of a rom... These are the ones being referred to...
[HTC Amaze 4G] marleyfan61:
I understand your point, but I'm sure that even some of the best current developers made mistakes in etiquette when they were noobs. Its called being a noob. You learn how to use the forums the same way you learn to develop. By trying something to see if it works and improving as you go. I can't help but wonder how many potentially great developers never tried because of the "noob" reception they got in forums like this.
[HTC Amaze 4G] zPacKRat:
Look, if spanking was not seen as abuse alot of our misguided youth would not be so misguided. If a user does not have the skin to take a little abuse for his/her noob like behavior then they would in all likelihood fail as a developer. And think if we all just accepted the noob like behavior this place would suck.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Flyin18T:
I don't believe it's the type of questions and answers, or if someone is right or wrong that come off as noobish. I think it's the way the forum is perceived based on how the interaction plays out. It comes across as very juvenile and immature. Other forums seem to have much more tolerant devs, mods, and members. I noticed it almost immediately upon viewing this forum on a regular daily basis when I got my Amaze a couple months ago. Just my $.02. I'll go back to my lurking and donating now.
[HTC Amaze 4G] zPacKRat:
I think the issue is the Amaze forum is the lack of development early on caused many a noob to ask the same questions over and over to the same devs, this is not acceptable and would test the patience of just about anyone. there is a reason for the search button, and it's not to be decorative.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
new video maybe in a few days when i get more time/more fixed :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] Flyin18T:
If every response to every question in this forum was handled with the patience and professionalism you are displaying now there wouldn't be a reason for this discussion. It doesn't matter what the question is and how decorative the buttons may or may not be. The veteran people must set an example on how to guide the noobs in the proper direction while maintaining the poise of a leader. Anything less just feeds a downward spiral of negativity.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xManMythLegend:
I dont understand this.:confused:

So I and others cant help test or try things because of stupid questions some people ask ?

I admire your work but seems like throwing the baby out with the bathwater no ?

Im sure theres a way for people to test help out development and avoid noobs.

Frankly Im not interested in Alphas or early Betas. But I know many would be and alienating them leads to dead forums and a bad rep to a great device. These forums are about people helping each other regardless of the occasional asshat.
[HTC Amaze 4G] zPacKRat:
It's is in the devs best interest to limit access to early builds. Also limiting access to those who have experience can help with getting a rom under development ready for general release. In the case of Xboarder, I notice he tends to release what would be considered a rc and follows up with fixes shortly afterwards even though he does not label them that way. It's just his style.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
But to not release a build in beta stages because of noobs is a little harsh. What about the things people do to HTC, ie bugging them to release sources. I mean repetitive questions are part of life. So is testing, some phones have bugs on their first release but they let the "noobs" test it and get the feedback, I mean it makes less work because the devs and companies can miss bugs, and I might be interpreting this wrong but saying that the lack of the development early on is because of noobs that's a little unfair. Wouldn't be that this isn't an International phone. Therefore less people have the phone resulting in less development.
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
Let him do his job, It's not the end of the world if you don't get ICS for another month!!! people get so hyped up...It's just a phone. If he wants to handle it that way it's his choice, stop forcing things, it's not going to get you what you want, in fact it will probably do the opposite. He is in control, He can release and not release it if he wishes and he doesn't even have to do this...He's doing it for free.

I feel like this thread is becoming a little agressive and harsh just like all the other threads...

X don't answer any more questions, do your job and do whatever you think is right. Don't listen to anyone. Don't let them affect you personally or emotionally. It's your rom you can do whatever you want with it. Heck you don't even have to release it. You don't have to answer any more questions here.

---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:48 PM ----------

I'm sure he will release something when he things it's test worthy, but a bunch of stuff was not working in his last build, so there might still be stuff that are completely non-functional...He has people that test things for him, Probably Binary and some others that are closer to him, things are probably not even alpha or maybe in alpha, who knows...but if he feels like its not ready to be even an RC...then its not even worth releasing, because not everyone is experienced enough to know how to report bugs, or experienced enough to know if it's a bug or if they are just not doing something right...I don't personally think I'm good enough for an alpha or even beta tests...RC maybe...
[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
Dude reach 100posts first then start being a smarty. Trust me better wait one more month than getting ur hands on such early stages of roms and then start crying about possible bricks. Is funny though, all you "new entries" always have some revolutionary ideas other people never thought about. He is the dev he does what he wants so stop even discussing it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
I don't even do a lot of testing for him. I do minor testing such as recoveries and such. He needs advanced users to test because we are able to pull logcats and last_kmsg files. Releasing a buggy rom to the public is only going to slow him down because he'll not only be playing the role of tech support but also having to teach the noobs how to pull and post a logcat and last_kmsg file. While he's doing that he's not actually developing. There are dozens of people saying "phone crashes" or "phone rebooted" but can't give ANY detailes as to why. What good do those posts do for the developer? None! None whatsoever because it can't be duplicated and the developer has no idea what caused the problem. Thus the need for advanced users (non-noobs). Also there's the matter of people kanging his work. Xboarder finalizes his work by placing easter eggs in his rom. This would be useful if another developer releases something similiar to his work. All he would need to do is download the rom in question and look for his hidden signature. If he finds it then I get to shut the rom down and the kanger gets in trouble. Should he decide to release his current progress anyone can download it, manage to fix it up and post it as their own with very little effort on their part. Meanwhile xboarder gets screwed.

Bottom line is that xboarder does what he feels is necessary and doesn't need to give a reason for doing what he's doing. It's his right as a developer to protect his work and progress.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
Being a smarty? Post count? Really? First of all just because I don't have a lot of post doesn't mean I that I have been on xda longer than I created my account. Second of all I was stating facts blaming the lack of developing. on the amaze because of noobs isn't fare theirs more than just that factors. Third all my ideas are my own I don't go off of other people sorry if they are close to someone else though. Forth I'm not begging for a early release, begging isn't my style. Again i was just saying that its a little harsh to not release because of noobs in addition to some claiming that the lack of developing is because of noobs and yes i was going to address that when its because its not likes it euro step cousin the Sensation XE,the regular Sensation, and the Sensation XL that is more widely available.
[HTC Amaze 4G] marleyfan61:
It will get released when X feels it is ready for release. If you really want it you can contact him to be a beta tester (or not) if you really want to test it. I, for one, would rather wait until it is mostly stable before I load it on my phone. If I got into bootloops I would have to ask for help and probably get labelled a noob and told to search. So I'll wait....but not too long I hope. For now QuickSense 3.0.0 is rock solid for me.
[HTC Amaze 4G] smatthew45:
how did this thread get so far off topic? who cares why xboarder does things the way he does, its his work/time so let him handle it the way he sees fit, and if he doesn't want to release something cuz of noobs, then so be it cuz it's most likely for a good reason

now to get back on topic... htc should have ics for us fully working in a couple months (hopefully) so we just have to wait and see if xboarder can beat htc to it lol :p
