Just ordered a purple one for $18 on their black friday sale. No idea when I'll be getting it though, hopefully soon. I had a silicrylic for my old galaxy tab & it was great. Hard as hell to get on, but very solid.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Lakeshow423:
Yeah.....I'm actually using the black and gray D30 but wanted a all black one. I then saw this thread hahahja. Oh well $27.99 for two quality cases ain't so bad :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kawaisa:
The Silicrylic case is available for $17.99 on Incipio's website and on Amazon (sold by Incipio)

same goes for the feather case

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] unclespoon:
It's smooth but I wouldn't say slippery. I've had mine for a few days and I never use cases on my phones but I absolutely LOVE this case!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rickm8384:
I'm not a fan of it at all really. I don't like the way it fits. The outer shell is SO tight that I have to work the edges of the silicone piece so that they sit properly each time I use the case. Since I only use the case when I am at work this gets VERY tedious.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blitzeratic1:
I like the case. Just got it today. I think the only downside is it's kind of a lint magnet. Other then that, it fits well and doesn't bubble up my real look screen protector.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Lakeshow423:
This case is sick! Reminds me of the active seidio case but with more protection than the X backing. I'm off to order the Seidio holster now hahah! The power and volume buttons feel 10x better than the D30 I just swapped out!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jonnythrice:
Yup...same here. Case is great tho! fits great, looks great and overall its nice, but because the whole case has that rubbery feel and texture, it sticks to lint, dust and whatever else is in your pocket.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] terminatorxman:
I got mine at frys in Fremont California. It cost.$24 and came with a full screen protector. It is really thin and looks great. I recommend it. I'll try to.post pics later.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GideonX:
The included screen protector exhibits the rainbow effect. If that bothers you, pick up a Realook or SGP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Driftin350:
I kind of remember reading that using a dryer sheet on the rubber part of the case can stop the case from collecting lint. I can't find where I read it. I ordered one and it was shipped out yesterday so I will report back once I get it and give the dryer sheet trick a try. Has anyone else heard of this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blitzeratic1:
Interesting. Let me know if that works and then I'll try that trick out for myself.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kabuk1:
I got mine last night & I like it a lot, except for the fact that the color description on the site was completely inaccurate. I'd take a pic but my phone is my only camera. It's described as dark purple, but it's actually more of a dark magenta/fuchsia. Slight gripe I guess, but it fits beautifully & the buttons are really easy to press.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
The real look one has the rainbow effect too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobbyphoenix:
It's strange with this phone. Three different screen protectors I tried all give the rainbow effect when the same brands used on my other phones don't. I'm currently using Clarivue's anti-glare/anti-finger print. It's the best so far. No rainbow, but it does give a bit of a grainny look to the screen. It also makes my finger slide much better than regular ones, or none at all for that matter. I'm happy with it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Those are great, I have one on the HD2 but they take away from the screen. No oily residue though from them.

I purchased this case last week and it shipped very fast. I tried the case on the phone and immediately took it off. The case seems like it is very good quality. All materials feel great and it looks good one the phone. My issue with it is the sides of the case...too soft. If I dropped the phone and something hit the side, the rubber would peel back and the phone would get damaged. I am going to try the seidio active case because they seem to have covered this issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] poesraven:
wanting the best protection

Not Questioning your credentials - what I want to know from your post is : Is it really engineered to be the most effective case for protection /impact, and what do you base it on ? I as well as others want the device to last -well at least until I can pay this one off. 8 yrs later...

I really want a great case - light / thin / and ablity to use various holsters and screen protectors <- again the best for protection/compatibility w/an case. I'm trusting " you the members that have the knowledge and user experience NOOBS need. I will say you people are the go to people for us Noobs, thank you, PR

Fellow Galaxy S-2 fans,

This month's Consumer Reports lists new ratings for cell phones. In the smart phone catagory, tied for first place are the Samsung Galaxy S-2 (AT&T) and the Samsung Infuse 4G, each with a score of 80. Third place among AT&T phones is the LG Thrill. Not until you get to forth place do you see a non-Android phone - the iPhone 4S. Not that we needed to be told, but it's nice to have some outside acknowledgment.

How cool is that?:cool:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
While it's nice that we're supposedly #1, CR has lost a lot of credibility over the years, and unfortunately these results confirm that...

For the Thrill to beat any iPhone means they have no idea how poor that device is. The Thrill had awful battery drain issues.

Not saying that I don't think the I777 deserves #1, however, there's no way in hell the Thrill is ranked over an iDevice in any real ranking due to its battery issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CraigP17:
I'd never buy one but the thrill is underrated. If you look past the 3d, which is just a "bonus" I guess, the device is powerful. For the normal consumer that is... Which is what consumer report is for. Maybe not the thinnest phone, or best developer following, but it holds its own. Again, if never buy one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AllTheWay:
I used a Thrill for quite some time and I really liked the device. I had good battery life with it and had very little problems with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Seanbest:
Looks like Apple finally didn't pony up enough money to buy off their reviews. Or Samsung just paid more.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] QuarkGluonSoup:
Maybe apple should threaten them with a bogus patent lawsuit?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stickbo:
Agree completely. The thrill has serious issues. As much as i love android I would get an iPhone 4 over it. Had more than one friend go down the dual channel memory trail and all came back pissed. The 3d is whatever, but the device as a whole is a battery killing lag fest. Typical LG in other words. I hate to sound so negative but that's just how I see it. Hell I have a wp7 focus I prefer over the thrill.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
what rom did you install? froyo gingerbread?

what type of cwm? update.zip type or built-into kernel?

have you gone into stock recovery and selected "reinstall packages" TWO TIMES in a row?

---------- Post added at 09:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 PM ----------

if your phone turns on it IS NOT a paperweight. something wasnt done, or you didnt read enough of something somewhere.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:
1. Do your homework and read through forums. This Q&A itself has many threads from people which had experience similar to yours.

2. Don't Panic. Also, please don't right in bold and caps. It seems like that you are shouting. People here have patience and they are here to help.

3. Follow the instructions below step by step -

As you mentioned that you are able to enter in DL and recovery mode, your phone is not yet dead. I also assume that you tried to use ROM Manager from market (my guess from what you have written), if so, please know what you are doing before attempting. Anyways -

- Make sure you have proper drivers installed on your computer. If you are not sure, grab them here - Windows 32 Bit OR Windows 64 Bit. Reboot your computer if required.

- Download Odin One Click Stock JF6 from here.

- Open Odin (right click on it and run as administrator). Plug the USB cable to PC, other end is not connected yet.

- Turn off your phone. (Pull out the battery and put it back). Press and hold down both Volume low and up buttons and while holding them, insert USB cable into phone. You should enter into Download mode, Also Odin running on your computer should recognize it. Flash it.

If your phone is completely dead, you can't find out what is going on, follow the instruction on this post.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colten.goll:
Hey guys,

I'm having a similar problem with the same phone. I was trying to flash to a custom OS from eclair using the heimdall 1.1.1 suite. The problem is that what I used is supposed to be used to flash from froyo. So now a samsung galaxy s welcome page comes up in the new font, but it will never load anything else. I can also get into recovery and download mode, but when I run the Odin One Click JF6 it doesn't do anything. It says something along the lines of finished, 0 success, 0 fails.

Could I just flash the original kernel back onto the phone? I have been reading the forums and haven't found many people that can get into download mode and are still having problems. Thanks you guys for your help in advance

EDIT: Just figured it out. Used http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1266172. VERY happy my phone is unbricked!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tanquef:
Coming from a niche phone as the Sony Xperia Play is, i dont want to get stuck again on a phone with poor development from the community.

The play is great, however, the community support is poor and slow.

I really love how the galaxy note looks, and every video or review that i watch, its giving me more and more reasons to get it, but i'm affraid i should go to the SGSII or the new Nexus, because they will have greater support...

what do you think about it? how is the development so far?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] 5150Joker:
It JUST got released so its hard to say. I don't see it selling nearly as well as the SGII so support will be more limited. Samsung will be bringing out ICS for the Note so as long as the parent company keeps supporting the device, I don't think we really lose out on much by having less devs making custom ROMs.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] koniakki:
Because I believe with "support" you meant from the XDA Developers.

My opinion is it will have it's fair share of support and customization but nowhere near as the SGS2 or other popular devices. For the obvious reasons of course which are already mentioned many times in the thread Note's General thread, so no reason going over them again.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] trunzoc:
My camera doesn't work.

When you press the shortcut on the homescreen, it flashes the blackscreen with the camera in the circle, then goes right back to the homescreen. same thing if you try it from the app drawer.

It used to do this on occasion and a restart would help, but then at some point aiming for a picture, the screen would freeze and that would be it for the camera until I rebooted.

Now I don't even get that. just right back to the homescreen.

I have this behavior on the stock rom, on Virtious, and on Newt's Inc2 HD.

I've cleared app data, no help.

I've cleared cache/dalvik, no help.

I've done full wipes in recovery, reinstalled ROMs, nothing works.

On my Inc1 you could use the MIUI camera with a sense ROM. Not sure if you can on an Inc2 or not, but i tried and it just FCs. Not sure if it's part of my camera problem, or just not something you can do with the Inc2.

Anyone have any idea why my camera is FUBAR?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aardvark502:
I'm kind of a noob with the inc2 but a similar issue happened with my fascinate and a ten minute battery pull fixed it so I would say try that
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] trunzoc:
Tried that this morning. No help.

I returned the phone to complete stock using JCase's unroot. went to the Verizon store. Guy said it's not an uncommon problem, BUT...

Even though the phone is less than a month old, and never even activated on the original account, it is out of warranty because it was transferred from one account to another.

12 month warranty void because it was sold to me 3 days after it was ordered without ever being activated?

Anyways, They said to call HTC, which I did, but their warranty dept is closed on the weekend.

Anyone know if HTC sends a replacement immediately or needs the phone first, meaning a replacement takes weeks?

[XPERIA X10 General] Nathvader:
Download the flashtool by androxyde and follow the steps to rooting it and possibly look into unlocking the bootloader also. It would make for a quicker loading the phone on turning on. For a solid Rom I would go with Wolfbreaks 6.0 because it's very good and stable.
[XPERIA X10 General] Tjotte:
Rule no.1 never mod a friends phone! You might end up having to buy her a new one. And since you seem uncertain of where to even start =/ i would'nt recomend it.

What about rooting her?:D:D

NVM

Download Pc companion and upgrade to 2.3 if u are not on 2.3...

But upgrading to 2.3 will wipe contacts,sms,apps,etc

so do backup

Then download the latest Flashtool and connect phone with usb debbuging on and unknown sources on

then press root button

u are done now she will have rooted 2.3 x10

As the story mentions June 30th is still "early" 2012. When you factor in standard att delays early 2012 can be early 2013 very quickly. They promised Gingerbread (Nexus S started shipping in December 2010) for the Captivate ... So when android 4.1 is shipping on phones start looking for 4.0 on the phones that shipped with 2.3.

* CWM-UCKK4

(Has signal and speeds on par with KI3, maybe slightly better too, for me, and battery drain is on par with KI3. I hardly use GPS, so didn't test it.)

* CWM-UCKL2

(Amazing battery life, and getting best speeds so far compared to any modem. GPS has a dead lock on and beautiful accuracy.)
