Looking into buying the solid black skin on decalgirl.com anybody have any experience with them? (dropped my phone an have a crack on the bottom left hand corner of the screen want to cover it with a skin instead of replacing the screen)

* Thinking of taking a razor an cutting the rest off and just putting the bottom part on(a shown in pic)

Check out ghost Armor in the mall if you need a quick fix and they are even better quality than these but cost a bit more
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] steven149031:
Hmmm

Looks good i dont know how this would go sticking to the standard back plate ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b.huss2:
this looks nice but i don't see where skinjam supports the galaxy nexus. could you provide a link or information about how you got it?

Can anyone tell if these skins would fit well on simples silicone covers ? or maybe on this

I managed to put together a google sketchup model of a galaxy nexus horizontal dock with extra battery charger. It has quite a ways to go but it is a nice start. I am going to get my buddy to print these out with his reprap printer this weekend and we will see what needs to be done.

Goals:

Use pogo pins to charge nexus

auto charge extra battery

have the dock hold the phone sturdy enough

*Update 2/16

I went to my friends house to get the parts printed out and lets just say it wasn't pretty. I haven't done any 3D printing before and it showed. I got some tips on what to change to get the part to work better in the printer and I will be spending some time this weekend fixing the model. The good news with this is that the new design should be extremely easy to change for different phones and phone shapes as all I will need to do is change the part that holds the phone, the rest of the dock can be reused.

Also I finished the schematic for the battery charging circuit. I will post a full schematic as well as a board layout when i actually put it up on a computer, right now its just a sketch in my notebook. The basics of the charging circuit is a National Instruments LP3947. This chip provides battery level monitoring which will allow the battery to charge to 100% and not overcharge or overheat. As for the power supply, I haven't decided yet. It is ether going to be a 2 amp plug or a 1 amp micro USB plug. The pogo pins are only rated for around 600mah and it is recommended to charge a battery at 500mah or less so I might just stick with using a micro USB plug to keep things easy.

* Update 2/18

I had to redesign the dock from scratch because as I stated before google sketchup isn't great for 3D printing and the model I tried to print failed pretty bad. I took my friend's advice and tried to chop it up into smaller pieces. I am going to print these out in a few hours and will post results this time. As for the schematic, I will get to that when I can. Getting a new model done was more important.

As you can see in the picture the dock is in a lot more pieces. Hopefully this means I can quickly redesign each part that is needed if something doesn't come out right in the print without having to print a whole new model. Also with more pieces anyone should be able to adjust this for any phone or case. The tray that holds the phone has room for another 3-5mm of thickness. I am not sure how much room there is width wise though.

* Update 2/19

Printed out a few parts, only two came out so I will give that another go when I have time.

If this had solid build quality I would definitely be interested. Especially in pogo pin charging capabilities.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droidkevlar:
If you decided to make one that fits with the cruzer a2 cases, Id def be in for this. Id even throw 1 in for ya if you dont already have one so you can get the stats right.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bpm2000:

I'm very interested. Especially if it can incorporate pogo pins.

Disregard this post
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iankellogg:
Why should you disregard this? I am trying to design something that people have been waiting samsung to do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neederishelp:
They ment their post, instead of deleting their post, they edited it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iankellogg:
Oh okay. I have never posted any of my projects before so I am hoping people's interest in this gets me to finish this faster than I normally do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iankellogg:
I have been thinking about this for a few days and I am a bit worried that people won't like the printed plastic finish. Since I am basically only making this for myself I am going for function over form. I only have access to a RepRap 3D printer and my own PCB etching stuff, so no nice injected plastic. If people are still interested in buying one instead of just building one from my instructions that I post when I'm done we can talk then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Knolly:
Very much looking forward to this! It's similar to something I'd love to do myself but I graduated in December so I no longer have access to my school's rapid prototyping lab.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xdraw:
wish i had access to a 3D printer!

I'm sure there will be a lot of interest for this, since Samsung bailed, regardless of form.

Does anyone know where I can find the battery connector prebuilt? If I don't have to bend metal to make those tiny little clips that would make my life a ton easier.

http://search.digikey.com/us/en/cat...ular-spring-loaded/1442900?k=battery contacts

Start there. From the best measurements I can take with my handy dandy metric ruler, looks like a 2.5mm spacing (pitch) between contacts and 4 contacts. Something like this, or exactly this, would work:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rotus8:
Spacing is 3.0mm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iankellogg:
Hey thanks a bunch! I will give these a shot (I checked the spacing on the battery and it seems to be 3mm like the other posted stated)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msugeek:
Ah, my bad. I guess my eyes were deceiving me on the 2.5mm spacing. I need to invest in a good pair of digital calipers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Knolly:
Did you ever make any further progress on this? It was looking really promising!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iankellogg:
Yes I have. The electronics all came in and I have been working on getting a board built but it has been difficult . I have never etched a circuit board with such tiny pads so I am still working on that part. I got all the parts needed though including the pogo pins and the battery connector. I figured I would post the final project when it was done as not many people seemed that interested in all the little updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jpinsl:
A bit late, but here's a digital caliper for $8. See here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tjhart85:
Very cool! I am interested in this & would be love to buy one off of you (at the very least, the shell & I can take care of the rest).

I really want a 3D printer, but can't justify the price ... If I could get a decent DIY one sub $450, I'd probably do it though, but I that's not exactly a reasonable price ... oh well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Knolly:
I feel ya... I do a lot of soldering for electrical components for my motorcycle and such, but I tried to do some soldering for the touchstone mod and it did not go well for me, haha.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iankellogg:
If you can find someone to print your parts for you and you can rip apart some old printers you can do a MendelMax for roughly $400
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meental:
any updates to this project? making more than one? i really like your design and would be interested in purchasing one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iankellogg:
I am still working on it in my free time but right now I have been very busy so I haven't put many hours in recently. As soon as I can get some free time I should have at the very least the test board complete and the battery charging circuit running. I still need to get the part that the battery terminals plug into and I still need to get some plastic parts printed out but since that takes a whole day of watching a printer I don't know when that will get done.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iankellogg:
I'm surprised anyone posted on this dead thread. I was so busy with my senior year of college i didn't bother updated the post. I finished the project and moved on. Battery charging works, pogo works but the plastic is cheap and doesn't hold the phone very well. I dont use the pogo charging anymore because of the poor construction but the battery charger works great and I use it to charge my spare battery. I have PCB layouts and schematics for the charging circuit. I am sure you could use cheaper LiPo chargers instead of the LP3947 I ended up using.

i just bought this app called lapseit and i would like to take time lapse videos while i travel using my sgs2.

can anyone recommend a portable tripod similar to a gorillapod that has a clamp for our phone?

and a gadget/phone case with a neck strap that will allow the phone to dangle horizontally grom my neck while i walk around?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] D3_:
For the neck strap thing, all you need is a case which doesn't cover the little hole on the right hand side of the phone (if you look at it from the back) and a neck strap like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10-NEW-Ne...rap_Charms&hash=item35b99c28c3#ht_2410wt_1396 The case isn't necessary, but if you do want a case you'll need to make sure that little hole isn't covered.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Ybother:
Trekmates do a GPS waterproof case. You have to take the phone out to use but will keep it dry and its quite cheep.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] leroy:
There are universal tripods like this

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=190612518567&index=0&nav=SEARCH&nid=99464512784

Tight fit however.....I used one for my Sony arc and it was a squeeze. Not sure how long it would last, and with a case it will be an even tighter fit. But it is cheap.

One that is more specific is this one that is built into a case but is more expensive

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=250957189841&index=13&nav=SEARCH&nid=36013783954

This obviously can't be used with another case either
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Steria:
Don't even bother buying that one. I bought that tripod originally for my N82, but the SGS2 does not fit, unfortunately.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rab1412000:
The problem with the hole on the sgs2 is that it is only in one side. So if I were to use it with a neck strap it would hold the phone at an angle and that just won't do.

I'm looking forward something that can preferably keep it horizontal so I get a wider field on the video.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rab1412000:
Thanks for helping suggestions. Isn't there a tripod with a generic simple clamp?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] leroy:
As it happens there is!

Must be new as I would have got this one to start with....they also do one with a telescopic lens! Never used one of those though - anyone any experience?

[LG Optimus Black] Pondera:
Hi. I am new as you can see. I tried to find a relevant thread but i couldn't find any. May be my bumbling... Anyway i pressed recovery boot in Quickboot by misteke. So my phone is back to square one as you can imagine. Is there way that i can go back to the state before i pressed that doomsday button or i have to kiss goodbye to everything i had on the phone?

I don't have any nandroid backup. I have titanium backup files. But i just wanna know is there a simple way... To recover from recovery, i know sounds stupid.
[LG Optimus Black] netum:
If you try to go to recovery without ClockWordMod installed, the phone will be reset to factory defaults. And then nothing can be done to return to its previous state.
[LG Optimus Black] Pondera:
I feared so. Well, such a clumsy move on my account. Start from the begining...puff.. Good thing i didn't update to gingerbread. Now i have an excuse to do it. Thanks for the answer man.
[LG Optimus Black] dabyd64:
LOL that happened to me some time ago.

I thought I had CWM but when restarted..:eek::eek: wtf !! stop that fu**ing thing!!...and losted everything :D

The only positive thing in this fact, is that you'll always remember very well if you had installed CWM next time you enter in recovery.

For safety, I usually do a backup of calls, sms and apps, when I'm not sure about what I'm going to do.

For that I use the apps "titanium backup", "sms backup and restore" and "call backup and restore".

Hope you have better luck next time :)

Hi, when setting up an Exchange-account (Exchange server is 2010) I get an error stating: Device encrypted. And I'm not able to sync with Exchange.

This isn't true as far as I know. I cannot find any encryption setting on my Desire S. Also our Exchange-server don't enforce devices to be encrypted.

Colleagues of me with the same device and problem have tried Touchdown from Nitrodesk, then it is possible to sync with Exchange.

It is not that I'm against Nitrodesk or other thirdpartysoftware, I'm just trying to understand the problem.

Android version is 2.3.5. Anybody here with a clue?
[HTC Desire S] WimXDA:
In addition: I think the problem has something to do with Sense 3.0. Because other HTC device with Android 2.3.5 and Sense 2.x don't have the problem. Samsung-devices with Android 2.3.5 and off course no Sense also do not hvae the sync-problem.

Just make sure you have a way to revert back to stock rom, in case you need to warranty your phone. Rooting will automatically void the warranty.

Not perfectly related but the knowledge of the "hidden" Carrier IQ software should be interesting if you own a smartphone. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_IQ
[General Questions and Answers] plainjane:
A carrier can read your phone info, and they do when you call in with a problem. The information they read is from your build.prop, if I remember correctly, so you could just change that file to reflect what looks like stock. Don't make any changes without first doing a backup and knowing what you're doing. If you don't know what to change, don't mess with it.

Every thread to do with rooting says that rooting voids your warranty. Your warranty is done unless you completely revert to stock and unroot. Your service is not affected. They cannot kick you off for rooting your phone, but they can deny you (warranty) service on the rooted phone.
