It only accesses it if your check tell HTC in settings>about

Regardless I think honestly some people take this too seriously sometimes, its not like HTC is reading your txts to tell your girlfriend that your cheated on her with a fat chick last christmas :)

Privacy should always be a concern. You never know how anything will be used against you these days. All you have to do is one thing the powers that be don't like and they will dig everything up and these days they can put you away with no representation for no reason what so ever. Complacency is the road to lack of freedom.

Well said. For reference this isn't in nils 2.0 release

I've rooted my phone, installed CWM, copied the 2 calk zip files over to my SD card, ran the format all zip, then ran the calk rom zip and everything installed correctly.

now i'm booting up and my phone is stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy SII" screen.

What should i do?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BrandoKC:
Hold the power button down until you power off. Boot into recovery and manually wipe dalvik, cache, and data. Then reflash the rom. If that doesn't work redownload the rom. Mount usb storage in recovery, wipe everything again and flash the new download. If that doesn't work then restore your backup, check for root and start from scratch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazyflipj:
Which Calk rom are you trying to install? What recovery do you have? If you don't know, what color is the text when you get into recovery?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] centro714:
V2.9.2

recovery 1.1.2 (CWM v5.0.2.7)

tried the first tip, not working so far. scary....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BrandoKC:
Have you redownloaded? Might be a bad download. If that doesn't work do the EL29 restire by sfhub and start from scratch

btw headed to bed but i will check back in the am. Good luck!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] centro714:
not yet. i'm connecting to the internet using my wife's TP2 so the connection is slloooow.

I'll redownload tomorrow.

So how do I copy new zip files to the external sd card w/o taking it out? I'm assuming there's an option to do this in CWM?

I might be screwed. Didn't back up :eek:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BrandoKC:
I believe it's mount storage in cwm. You should be fine :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] centro714:
Thanks. I'll be able to sleep better hearing that:)

I'll redownload calk's rom tomorrow and try again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] centro714:
THANK YOU BRANDON!!

Went to work early, re-downloaded, re-flashed, now my et4g is frikkin amazing! Worth the headache.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BrandoKC:
Awesome!! Glad it's working for you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
If the rom has it, always verify the md5 with what you have then things like this won't happen. I found out the hard way.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alsaqr:
the leather one is nice

quick question

does the back clear part light up too or is it only from front ?

cause some cases dont have the opening on the back
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] augie7107:
The light bar is transparent, you can see right through it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chesterr:
Yea man, the ROCK have different version too,

I'm currently located in China and this taobao.com site has some different one like grey, maroon and black which look really nice.

But I want a one which shows the Transparent element :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Lasse3040:
Found the same covers from e-store2011, on obostore.com but only 10$ cheaper :-)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] leetjimis:
Ordered a very nice rubber case from ebay. Theres the pic of it, what d you think?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dibdin:
It looks okay. I waiting for one of the hard shell casings that should be out in the next few weeks.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nimche:
Three lights are located at the top center of transparent piece. so it should light up front and back evenly.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] augie7107:
Went to T-Mobile, AT&T and Verizon retail stores today looking for a universal case that would hold this device and none of them had one!

This cannot possibly be the only 5" device on the market. Pathetic selection. What kind of business model doesn't have accessories to support the devices they provide?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nimche:
I totally agree with what you say and unfortunately we have to wait till it becomes more avaiblable in the US. If we were in Europe or else where it would be easier.

All the stores like ATT tMobile, etc. in the US are garbage and useless. Unfortunately this is how it is here.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ErichSan:
Nimche, you don't know how it is here in Brazil... Hahaha. Anyway, yes, having no support on a product you bought... really sucks.

I had one of the FEW Sony Ericsson Satio that were sold in Brazil, and trust me... A Nissan Pathfinder went over it, and the cellphone was still working perfectly, but obviously over asphalt the screen got cracked... There was NO Sony Ericsson retailers that had the screen, and only to fix it, it'd cost me 1/3 of the price of the device...

Anyways, I'm receiving a hard case from Handtec with my order. You can get the hard case here: handtec.co.uk/product.php/6407/sony-xperia-s-shell-case---black

i like Tpu case
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nimche:
Yes, I feel what you say as well. No wonder here in the US people like to get iPhone alot because you go to store and buy the darn thing with all the accessories you want and even WindowsMobile you could go to MS store and get it but Sony with all the power it has is like Sh*t. You go to store, you find the most useless people on the planet to work there, they have no clue what they are selling and no information of what is coming. Every time I go there, I have to surprise them with new Sony's technology.

That hard case is like the original Sony branded (website didn't fully work) but I think Clove at UK and Expansys USA will start selling them too Expansys USA

I like the blue one tho.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alsaqr:
yeah im gonna get that blue one i think

the best accessories for sony are in Japan but thats like obvious since Sony is Japanese

Sony Style needs catching up

to increase cell phone sales you need to give people varieties of accessories
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nimche:
I went to Sony Style yesterday to maybe surprise myself and find some guys with knowledge but it failed... What did I expect? They have some nice wifi speakers tho. Maybe I get one.

These are also nice but I don't like their logo in the back.

Case on Ebay
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nikotime:
I am going to be ordering the Nillikin case for this. Only a tenner and happy to wait the couple of weeks it will take from china. Nillikin have good reviews so I think this could be a winner. I cannot post links yet but it is item number 160760327876 on eBay UK for a pictures :)

EDIT: Blimey, I should have clicked on the link in the post above, that is exactly the case I ordered. Will let you know how it feels if it comes before anyone else gets it
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] totmann:
@alsaqr I like the blue one a lot!! It looks pretty good and should be very comfortable holding in hand.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alsaqr:
thnx Nimche

it comes in red too

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nillkin-Har...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item1e6c28cf4f

nice quality

they have glossy white one too
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Abandoned-Trolley:
Looks similar from the shot, differences I would say is that the bottom cut out for the under side of the phone looks bigger and also the slot for the LED bar looks like a cut out on that, on mine it has a plastic covering. Maybe those are just press shots though and not the final product.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Sikiduck:
I don't think pouches, or soft pouches are a good idea for this phone.

I had one that I used for X10, but on XS, the sides were worn down, or they lost the matt color. This may be because the seams was went inwards, but I'm not sure.

But I loved using this soft pouch, so is there any soft pouches for XS with seams not facing inwards?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nimche:
Maybe some Folks like these.

White

Black

EDIT: and forgot:

Brown
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nvidia17:
Got the Nilkin (the matte one, not the glossy one), the Rock Quicksand and that official Sony hardcase (http://www.gearzap.com/official-sony-xperia-s-hard-shell-case-black.html)

I'm very disappointed with the original one. It's almost impossible to take it off within 10 minutes without breaking it. Needless to say, I broke mine. Very fragile case while the Nilkin and Rock case offer about the same protection in a way easier and compact case.

I didn't like the material used in the official case either, it just doesn't have a nice feel to it. If I had to pick the odd one out and got hinted that the odd one out is a dealextreme case I'd pick the official hard case as it feels the cheapest overal.

I prefer the rock quicksand case simply because of it's texture, VERY prone to fingerprints and it just looks sexy and feels AMAZING in the hand. The Nilkin one isn't bad either, if I were to ever drop my S I'd hope i'll be using the Nilkin case when doing so. I swap between the 2 from time to time, I love change.

I would recommend the Rock and the Nilkin from ebay. I paid 18 euros for the official one, 10 for the rock and 10 for the nilkin. So I would not recommend the priciest one as it feels the cheapest in my opinion
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] technaudio:
Got my 'official' roxfit case from clove yesterday... And it was already broken in the box!

It's a nice enough case, and is a pretty good fit, but the thin parts around the hdmi / volume rocker and power button (where it was broken) do feel rather flimsy and I personally don't think it'd hold out to well if dropped!

Curiously, this thin bit isn't there on the USB port side...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] technaudio:
Broken bit :-S
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nimche:
Sorry for that much wait and now broken part for you. Do you mind sharing some pics with phone in there? It could help very much.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] katsuru:
I thought this would be a good case for my XS, but when i got it i was completely disappointed. The case fits the device the problem is only trying to take the device out of it without breaking the case... :rolleyes:

Cheap case really....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Scratchling:
Still waiting on delivery of my nilkin. Paranoid about it falling on something hard(its already come down on grass). Need it now. Fecking HK taking Easter off :mad:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alsaqr:
yes be very careful

a friend of mine broke the phones screen just a day before they recieved their case
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] stpx:
Thanks , ordered this one. might get original Sony pouch too. Will post more pictures if the forums allow me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Static-Noise:
I bought this on Thursday, and already received here in Ireland.

Actually, for the price, it's excellent.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Shop4-S-Line-Hydro-Xperia-Mobile/dp/B007HLRVQQ/

Will post shots later.

Fits snuggly around the phone, easy to hold, doesn't make it heavy, looks great, keeps the buttons responsive and fits perfectly. €3 well spent.

:)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] seanicca:
ordered one of these as a spare, but it actually fits better than my nillkin (whch needs a piece of double sided tape on one corner to stop it creaking) so it's my main one now and gonna order another colour for £3 its a bargain.

Sony Xperia S Case-Mate Barely There Case Black - Official

Sony Xperia S Leather Flip Case - Official

Sony Xperia S Protective Shell Blue - Official

Sony Xperia S Case-Mate Barely There Case Pink

Sony Xperia S Case-Mate Barely There Case White

Sony Xperia S Case-Mate Barely There Case Black Smooth case (mix with silicone and hard shell case)

I would go for the "Smooth case" as it looks like it offers the most protection and looks better to hold.

Melkco Xperia S

Here's a few pics of my case ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bustervic:
I got one and sending it back. Didn't like the fit, although the box was also deformed when it showed up so that might have contributed.

Also makes me hesitant to order the casemate smooth case as it may not fit as nicely either.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] leminhnguyen0703:
How can it not fit ? It's a TPU case.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] magikmichael:
Yeah maybe it needs some time to fit. I had an ultracheap tpu case from eBay for 2 dollars. At first it was a bit loose on the edges but after a day it fitted perfectly around the phone. I even had some trouble removing the case when my nillkin hardcase arrived.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bustervic:
I'll send a pic tonight, basically the center top, and center buttom bulged out so that there was a gap on the top and bottom.

I have used this type of case before and tried letting it sit in warm water for a few minutes to help it shape to the device and it was the same.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] #LOUDmouth#:
I've just received w w w.ebay.co. uk/itm/280843795367?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_4513wt_1163 purchased 3/4 so two weeks ago. I chose black and purple.

Unfortunatly i had to return my XpS due to the infamous yellow display tint and get it fixed/replaced so i havent been able to try the cases on.

First impressions though are great. The cases look and feel more expensive than 1.7£. The cut outs are smooth and seems to be in the right places. The texture and feel of it are somewhat similar to the phone it self.

Anyway i think these cases will do temporarily untill i get myself a red Nillkin case.

As soon as i get my phone back i'll try them on and post a picture!

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Joshseadog:
Nillkin

Just received my Nillkin case via ebay-china. Red colour, took two weeks. £9 inc shipping. Case fits like a glove and high quality. Red colour is not garish/bright, more like ox blood. Good texture phone now not slippery. Cut outs are also perfect. It came with Nillkin screen protector/cloth, have'nt made my mind up to install this as yet.

I don't like the nillkin case, I think that it doesn't protect enough the front of the phone

I prefer the "protective shell" from roxfit, don't you?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nvidia17:
Case was just okay, then I took the phone out and it broke

I'm using the Rock Quicksand and Nilkin cases right now, they're not entirely around the phone but it works for me, both feel great in the hand with a slight preference for the Rock case

I am the only one that get annoyed with pouch/leather cases? I like agility (one of the main points of XS with fast camera mode) and Nilkin-like cases are the best to this. Going to buy mine tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure it will take a while from Hong Kong to Brazil. But I will only get my XS in 2 weeks, so, no big worry :)

Here we got a black Roxfit Protective Shell for white Xperia S infected with Yellow tint.

Case was purchased from Expansys USA.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Abandoned-Trolley:
Don't mean to sound funny, but what is the point in getting the White Xperia S and then slapping a black back cover on it? I love the whiteness of the phone! :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nimche:
Case was purchased because of me being curious to see it and now is for sale. Maybe you want to buy one?

At least I share so you could see how does it look.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] denaz:
Can someone point me to a good case easy to remove?

This is because i want to protect my device, but i also need a car mount, so probably, if i don't buy an universal one but usually i don't like them very much, with the case on it will not fit.

TY!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RiotRick:
Just received my black Roxfit Protective Shell from Clove. They even threw in a set of 4 xperia smart tags. Probably cause my pre-order took so long (ordered in february).

Unfortunately my xps is still at the repair center, so I can't try it yet.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] #LOUDmouth#:
Mine to :( Still hoping that they exchange the unit instead of repairing it. The current status says "Waiting for spare parts" though so i guess i'm just gonna get a new display.

However, while waiting i ordered w w w.ebay.co.uk/itm/261005750309?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_1859wt_1396 but when i ordered it it was only 99p + 99p SH. Under 2£!

When i get my phone back i'll post pictures of that case as well!

Anyone know when the white roxifit shell case will be made available?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MedicalFlyer:
I've had two Nillkin cases and a PDair and none seem to suit me (I don't know why).

I had the Nillkin hard shell but I gave that to someone at work who had one of the cheap s-line cases.

Problem I have is the phone lives in my trouser pockets and with the job I do it needs some good protection but I worry about the screen with the Nillkins and the PDair is too bulky.

I've seen a Krussel SlimCover that's on preorder with Expansys. Hopefully it'll be out soon.

I have the PDair book style in black leather and a Nillkin gel case in grey/frosted.

If anyone wants either of them let me know (say £15 for the PDair and £5 for the Nillkin delivered to UK and maybe anywhere else depeneding on price?)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] LaughinGoh:
You can purchase the White one from their official website.

Nillkin TPU case for Sony Xperia S LT26i (smoke/grey/black)

View attachment 1018665View attachment 1018664View attachment 1018663

The led strip bar part is fully transparant like glass :), it's hard to see on the photo. What i don't like is the that the top and bottom sticks a little bit out and dust can collect, it also makes it a bit ugly if you want detail (on the photo somehow you can't see). but this might be solved by reshaping with hot water. Other than that its good :)(i thought and wanted it to bemore darker/black)

This is more how it looks like (but this one is for the Xperia U, but the colors seem the same)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bustervic:
I notice the top and bottom fit like mine, it sticks out a little on the center top and bottom?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kaizokan:
yes, it sticks out just a little bit on the bottom (did not notice it till now) and on the top a little more, too bad, but other than that it fits tight.

if you know a way to solve this let me know please :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bustervic:
Kind of bug me as it lets a lot of dust in, I tried warming the case in some hot water and holding the side in. I'll try again with warmer water :)

Other than that it protects the device nicely.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Evynnstarr:
Third case! Nice! Can you upload pictures of them? It was so hard to decide on the customisation and all.

By the way, in how many days did you receive the case ?
