[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sgtpepperaut:
hey, def exactly looking for what you are making!

however the question for you is this:

what kind of cnc/manufacturing process would you use. The reason i ask is because a great sturdy case with the features you want would need to use different types of material (hard plastic and rubber mainly) fused together. as far as i am aware common cnc machines can only carve out of a single piece/material and then perhaps you can manually put it together...

this manufacturing works great if you want a case entirely made out of hard plastic but i tend to argue that a good protective and grippy case needs a combination of several soft and hard materials.

for example:

the inside would preferable be a hard rubber for shock absorption and grip to the unit itself. Same materials could be used for the edges.

The credit card holder would need ideally one side grippy the other sidy hard/smooth plastic so you can easily slide out the cards but they dont fall out by themselves (my speck iphone 4 case is an excellent example!

i have tried skinnier credit card cases for my iphone 4 but after prolonged use the clip that is supposed to keep the cards in looses its "push" and the cards will start to fall out. (this could be easily fixed by using better polycarbonate materials but would probably quadruple the price.

One of the biggest problems i face personally is the fact that when using a good skin there are no compatible docks yet.

i had the following combo on my iphone 4 and absolutely loved it with the only downside that i had to dremel out some of the case's bottom side to make it fit my car mout and iphone alarm clock.

Speck Products CandyShell Card Case

Magellan Premium Car Kit

Personally i would be willing to pay north of the $100 mark for a good combo like this and i am sure there many people wanting the same thing. given that this is a fairly new product there is still money to be made. my cad/catia experience is limited but maybe ill draw something up and see if you can manufacture it as a prototype.

Cad file for case

Hello OP! I was wondering if you ever built a cad model of your case. We have a 3d printer at out facility too and I would love to try out your case design if you don't mind sharing it. I would of course be willing to pay what you see fit. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mazlin:
UI would be fibbing if I said I am not totally interested. I would really like an otterbox style commuter case that has a kickstand, a card holder (I would stick my rfid bus pass in it). The rest sounds interesting but I am not sure I would want to add a lot of bulk.

I cannot wait to you a sales link and some good pictures of the final product.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] caseyherrington:
Oh, dear. Kudos on the first case; it looks awesome. I've had my skyrocket for about a month or so now and I can not find a case that I like. The kickstand and credit card holder on the same case would make me pay $50-$100 for it. The only thing I would be worried about is my phone getting scratched up on the inside of the hard case, you should try adding in some sort of material like otter boxes have on the inside. And will you post a couple pics of how it looks on your phone with the outside rubber shell on it so we can get a feel of how it looks on your phone. Thanks and good luck bro.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tiger12490:
I would be extremely interested in a case that fit my seidio extended battery with a kickstand and a place to put credit cards I would pay 50-100

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] WakeRider89:
dang i was actually getting excited for a sec when i found this older thread until i saw where oc_hazard had pointed out the original poster.

as a seidio extended battery user i was thinking about getting an otterbox commuter and cutting the battery cover down to its minimum operating potential and then carving out the commuter with a dremel to just fit the extra battery.

my only concern would be the possibility of the internals being more exposed through the cracks.

Hopes and dreams in this thread though...

[Motorola Photon 4G] bmckenzie90:
Ok, so I got my Electrify a few days ago, rooted it and everything went fine. Worked for about a day, but then the battery died. I charged it, but now it sticks on the Dual Core boot logo, wont boot at all. I'm terrified.

Can anyone help?

I've tried running Android Recovery (I get "Failed to boot 2")

I've tried messing around in FastBoot and with RDB, but I'm getting nowhere.

I'm desperate, and as the Electrify is new, I'm not having any luck finding in-depth help.

Anyone? You may email me if you'd rather communicate that way.

(I'm really sorry if this is the wrong place to post, I couldn't find an Electrify forum.)

I would try this first, it couldn't hurt.

Perform a factory reset using external keys

Note: It is highly recommended you use the above factory reset using the settings. If you are unable to navigate through the menu to perform a factory data reset, you can follow the steps outlined below:

Power off the phone, press and hold volume down button, press power button

Screen will come up with "Fastboot", press Vol down key to cycle through choices until you get "Android Recovery", then press Vol up key

Wait for the "triangle ! / Android" screen then go on to step 4

Press both Vol up and Vol down key simultaneously. A menu will come up

Tap on Vol down key until "wipe data/factory reset" is highlighted, and tap Power key. Another Confirmation screen will come. Tap on Vol down key until coming to Yes and tap Power key

After userdata is cleared, the "reboot system now" option will be highlighted by Default. Tap Power key

Phone will reboot to initial setup screen.

Hope this helps.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Cythrawl:
If you didnt put the 2.3.5 update on the phone (and I am assuming you didnt), then grab the Electrify SBF here and follow the instructions.

If you DID put 2.3.5 on the phone I have the SBF for that also, PM me for the link..

be aware 2.3.5 will lock your bootloader and there is no way to unlock at this time.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bmckenzie90:
Thanks everyone. Got it fixed.
[Motorola Photon 4G] andyk11:
How did you get it fixed. I have the same problem... "Failed to boot 2" in recovery? need help. Photon on 2.3.5.... 254_3
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
can you boot into fastboot?
[Motorola Photon 4G] andyk11:
Yes Every attemt at reflashing sbf fails.
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
umm... there's no SBF available for 2.3.5 users and you CANNOT use the 2.3.4 SBFs. i assume you don't have an unlocked bootloader and upgraded to 2.3.5 using an unlocked method.

give this a try... http://www.motosunfire.com/system/

it worked for another guy. so it should for you given it's only your system that's messed up. also if this doesn't work do a factory reset from the recovery if you can get into it. then try again.
[Motorola Photon 4G] andyk11:
Thanks. I'll give it a shot.
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
if you can, let me know of your results.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MIONS:
Look i not a prof but i will tell u what happened with me if the sbf file flashing fails when its about to finish unblug the phone an reboot with volume down and navigate to android recovery by pressing down then up do a factory reset and reboot and wait mine worked like that
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
you're doing this with 2.3.5? and not 2.3.4? locked bootloader yeah?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dave2metz:
I have heard about this app for a long time and decided to get it from the market. Another xda member a while back said it worked great on the T mobile SGS2. I mainly got the app to change the status bar icons and maybe some fonts. The problem is that not everything seems to work. I managed to change the wifi icon and the signal bars, but no go for other tweaks. For some reason, they don't stick after applying and rebooting. Does anyone else use Rom Toolbox Pro? If so, do you have the same problems or am I doing something wrong? I also want to know if this is safe to run on the T mobile SGS2. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I would also be interested in this. How can I Change it, (or can I just remove it to speed up the booting process?)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JiN1337:
Removing the boot animation doesn't help speed up boot times. It's been widely spectated, that's why there still is one, since it's pleasing to the eye while waiting for the rather long load. You can easily change the boot animation, by editing the build.prop file.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Sakuryu:
I was wondering about this too, One will it screw up my rom? I like to mess around with modding my phone but really hate the whole backup, wipe, flash thing and would like to avoid that. Also I really liked one certain boot animation from a Custom rom that I can't remember and dont seem to have on my computer. It was little colored light ribbon things crashing into an X like symbol and it looked really cool. I'm currently using Generic Ginger 4.1 and I'd like to see something different than the basic android thing when I turn my phone on.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] orange808:
system/media/bootanimation.zip

Need Bali or Platypus.

Use the search feature. Freedom of choice.. is what you got.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] eurohomie:
It depends on what you would like to change it to... like orange said, thats the extension to get into the file. bootanimation.zip is the entire boot animation, to replace it, simply replace it with another bootanimation.zip... There is a list of many of them if you google it. If you replace it, sometimes the screen size is a little different so you will have to change the first 2 set of numbers in desc.txt in the zip file, I've done it for the haters gonna hate boot animation.

Guys I will be replacing my O1 this summer most probably by xperia s if price tag comes below $700

What I am concerned about is the display!! Its a 720p lcd display...

so will it be as good as galaxy s2 super amoled plus display!!

next thing is that it does not have a removable battery... so what in case the phone gets frozen!! no battery to pull out..

and does it support usb host mode!!

What I really liked about it are the specs and the super cool looks... specially that transparent strip at the bottom....

And what other can be my options in the price range!! no iphone plz...

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greymare:
I'm running cm7 from micro sd on my nook color and love it, but i hate the market app. On my rooted htc inspire i was able to download the old market apk for version 2.3.4 and much prefer that one. It's the one with the big green box at the top. Is it possible to modify my rom when it's running from the sd? If so, how would i modify it to run the old market app? I've read some threads about going back to the old market, but it wasn't THIS old market and it wasn't with cm7 on sd. Thanks!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micahs:
When I was running CM7, I used AppQuarrantine to freeze "Market Updater" and uninstalled the Market update. That left me with the old market version. That was on sd. hth
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anniraff:
Yep, Macahs right. That works. You can also do the same thing with Titanium BU. And, FWIW, I found a perfectly usable Market 2.x apk online through a Google search, if your uninstall of the new Market doesn't reinstate the earlier one.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] JdgM3NT4L:
I found this topic over here at the Atrix forum.

I copied/pasted the below quote from the Dropbox forum here.

Since there aren't really any good instructions on how this works I figured it might help to share what I had to do to get the free 500mb

First either download the apk from here. Or get it straight to your phone from this QR code. Both of these links can be found at the Dropbox forum page here (http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=53013).

Once you have the app installed either fresh or over a previous install. Open it. It should take you through the setup as if it was a new install rather than an update. Once the setup was over the app went to a new screen and showed my photos and videos being found and then it began to upload them.

I haven't had a chance to steal the Nook Color from my daughter long enough to try it out on it. But I expect it to work just fine. I'll go ahead and share my Atrix story below. It might or might not happen on the NC. If it does just shut down and restart. It should be cool after that.

I did have an issue when running it for the first time on my Motorola Atrix. I went into my settings while it was uploading. When I went back to Dropbox. The app did a funky crash, force close. Then it got interesting. The app opened and wanted to start all over, then closed, then opened and began a loop of that that would not close or allow me to get to settings or anything that would help. I had no issue when pressing the fingerprint button and then choosing to shut down.

After it restarted I went back to Dropbox. I had to log in, but other than that it is running just fine. No more weird loops, fc's or strangeness of any sort so far. And I did get my 500mb right away. I did delete the photos that I tried uploading from my pc earlier and it didn't act like I cheated or anything.

Now hopefully no one minds if I put in a shameless plug.

If you don't already have Dropbox and want to try it please consider using my referral link(http://db.tt/LbHgKOa). Using my referral link gives both you and I an extra 500mb of space when you sign up. It is free!

If you'd rather just go straight to the Dropbox website it is here. http://www.dropbox.com.

Also if anyone else wants to post their referral link below I don't mind at all. We should all go for the max space allowed.

I didn't feel like putting 1 million pictures on my Nook so I copied a few HD movies from my computer into SD Card/DCIM/screenshots and renamed the file to look like the pics around it and then I changed the extension to .png and let it do its thing. I now have 5 more GB of space.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] josteink:
yeah. Box has 50gb, but my data feels kinda locked there (no batch DL for free accounts). And the 100mb file limit severely limits its usefulness.

I have a 2 amp Galaxy Tab charger that I'm not using for anything. Would it be safe to use this with the Galaxy Nexus (it comes with a 1 amp charger)?

I plugged it in and it works, just want to be sure it doesn't cause in damage using it long term.

It's safe, your phone only takes what it needs, you only have problems when you hook one up that can't provide enough power say 700mah or less.

Running Neutrino 2.1, I cannot download extra data for any apps (a la Gameloft). I get an error that says I do not have enough memory on my memory card and that I need to delete pictures and/or videos.

I have plenty of room on my SD card (internal and external) and other partitions. Anyone else have similar issues?
[Atrix 4G General] guidoido004:
Try getting the new version or erasing what is already on the gameloft folder from that game.
[Atrix 4G General] ehvio:
In case anyone else ever has similar trouble, I found my solution.

Gameloft uses /mnt/sdcard to store the additional files. As I was on CM7 (Neutrino. I'm on Jokersax's CM9 2d now, same issue showed up though), my internal storage was assigned to /mnt/emmc. I only have a 1GB external sdcard that I use to hold my TiBU/SMS backups/and some documents, so there was insufficient space. I modified vold.fstab to swap my internal storage back to /mnt/sdcard, and have not run into any other issues.

vold.fstab is found in /system/etc

You can either modify on your computer or from within your preferred file browser (Root Explorer for me). Open vold.fstab as text and modify like so:

Comment out (#) the lines directly under "# external SDCard" and "# internal eMMC storage" (shown here in italics)

You can just delete those lines, but it's easier to revert if you comment out instead

Then insert the text that I have bolded below in the respective positions.

Save, reboot and you're done! If you edited the file on your computer and then moved it into place, be sure to check that permissions have not been altered. Permissions should read rw-r--r--

I just tried putting a small piece of tape over the sensor and found that it works. The red buttons always stay on regardless of the ambient light conditions, however, during a call the screen will no longer go dark so that your ear, cheek, etc are no longer prevented from inadvertently clicking on anything. Obviously the sensor has a double duty.
