[HTC Incredible S] TheCrow1372:
I have one that's not bad and its basic rubber like, its back makes it look like the Sensation :thumbdown:lol so any opinions also if there is a great thread on this a link would be good?

Thanks
[HTC Incredible S] TaLEntZ96:
looking for a flip case or just one to cover the back? unfortunately there's not much choice with our phones :(
[HTC Incredible S] Psyloid:
I have this one, it's cheap and pretty good
[HTC Incredible S] Cookie Ninja:
I use a black leather flip case by PDAir. Costs roughly $28, great look & feel. I've used PDAir cases for my earlier WM phones, so I'm happy with it.
[HTC Incredible S] grupatnt:
Similar here, using S CURVED GEL CASE COVER FOR HTC Incredible S. Looks, feels nice and it doesn't make phone bulky. For screen I went with cheapest Matte Anti Glare protector. Survived a couple of drops (~2m) on tiles and still works like new (so I guess this would rate as Good :) )
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Ive got the S one too, its got good grip, the sides are a bit rough so theres great grip.

It kind of breaks it up on the back too, I think it looks a bit weird without the case

It adds better feedback for the buttons too
[HTC Incredible S] vinboy3:
I had This, very nice:D
[HTC Incredible S] skinniezinho:
I have the case mate barely there,I guess it won't protect very much, but it came with my phone when I bought it (used).

For screen protectors I use HTC Original ones bought on ebay.de (about 3eur 2protectors) they are nice.
[HTC Incredible S] TheCrow1372:
That is the same one I have, cost me $15 and it's pretty good but makes mine look bulky
[HTC Incredible S] skinniezinho:
It funny because I can't use the phone without it, I think it's too thin/slippery :P maybe because I had the phone with the cover since I bought it...
[HTC Incredible S] compro01:
Otterbox defender.

Next best thing to Nintenium. Not cheap though.
[HTC Incredible S] andy_tyc:
I use the casemate barely there cover and a HTC original screen protector too. Reasonably good protection against scrapes and scratches, no extra bulk but won't protect against a hard knock or a drop I reckon.
[HTC Incredible S] skinniezinho:
just the same as me.

But I am thinking of buying HTC S510 pouch too.I saw one of a friend's HTC HD2 and it was amazing.
[HTC Incredible S] umpa2:
For prospective buyers from England, I got me a" iGadgitz Dual Tone Black Durable Crystal Gel Skin" from Amazon

Cheap cheerful, pretty solid and has a screen protector included. Great!
[HTC Incredible S] powell85:
None! Thats the best one.. especially for the inc s.. Give thx to the surface. 1year using, Nov scratches.
[HTC Incredible S] MrDjango:
I am using an Otterbox Commuter case.. The back is very similar to the device itself, but it adds a little bit of bulk to it.. (not much though). This case protects your phone against pretty much everything except for water (offcourse). I even dropped my phone once of the stairs and you couldn't even see it. Another good thing about this case is the fact it has two layers: rubber and a plastic case around it. The positive thing about this: the rubber also protects the earphone jacket and micro USB-plug against dust etc.. That was one of my main reasons to go with this case.. not the cheapest though, but it is excellent! Also comes with a screenprotecter btw..
[XPERIA X8 General] ghost9685:
hi,

Is there a way to get the Sense clock from Ginger DX to any other ROM??
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ujnikm:
Is there a program called all share for samsung galaxy mini??

I saw this program in galaxy ace!! plzz Answer me
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] M1hai:
AllShare - Hope it helps!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Jinxxed:
Yes there is, it's installed in every stock rom and if you don't have it because you used a custom rom you can get it installed by installing touchwiz 3.0 from madteam.

http://www.madteam.co/forum/development/(port)-touchwiz-3-0-for-'cyanogenmod7'-port/

It contains a lot more than just AllShare so if you don't want the rest, just delete the apk's in app within the zip before you install it.

Just read the thread in that forum and you'll understand how that works.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ujnikm:
thanks for answer

thank you for your help,,but i want to inform you that my 1st stock Rom (froyo) doesn't have all share and the (gingerbread ) too,,,anyway thanks a lot and I'm trying your link;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ujnikm:
I've succeeded in installing allshare using your link

I've succeeded in installing allshare using your link :D:D I downloaded TW launcher and i found the allshare installed then i backup ed it and re-install my chocobread 2.2 launcher and re-install allshare ,,,thank you very much indeed you really helped me->> i will post a link with the program soon to help everyone wants it ;);):D:o
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ujnikm:
to help all members wants this app

this is the link for AllShare.apk

http://www.mediafire.com/?5lftuaasib88akf

i tried it on chocobread and it works
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Jinxxed:
You can just choose the launcher on first reboot.

BTW, the launcher and other things in the zip are removable, just open it with your favourite archive program and remove what you don't want. ;)

Glad i could help though. :)
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
So I have seen alot of threads asking on how to go back to Gingerbread if you have installed the newest leaked RUU that came out about 5 days ago. Also once you go back to GB, the SD card mounts have changed, so you need to fix that too. Here are some simple ways.

If you have a nandroid (which you should have made) you can restore your backup from that. You then have install the correct kernel. You can do this one of two ways.

Download this PH98IMG.zip and place it on your SD card's root. Meaning not in a folder. Then boot back into hboot and let this install.

The other way is to take that PH98IMG.zip and open it. Grab the boot.img out of it and place it on your computer in the same folder that has adb.exe and fastboot.exe in it. (Same place that you used to unlock your phone). Next open up the command prompt and change directories to where you have adb and fastboot. For example, mine is C:\Android so the command would be "cd c:\android" Then type the following command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" Remember that you need to be in fastboot mode on your phone and connected to the usb port.

Once that is complete, boot into recovery and flash this file. This is the SD card mount fix that scrosler posted. This should get back up and running.

If you don't have a nandroid backup (shame on you) then you can use any of the GB roms to flash like you have before, making sure that you flash the kernel also. Then flash the SD card mount fix in recovery.

Things of note, once you have flashed the leaked RUU, there is no way right now to run the Official RUU's. The leaked RUU updates your hboot and radios, there is no way to downgrade those.

As always I am not responsible if your phone catches fire, starts talking in a foreign language, or causes spontaneous combustion.

Hopefully I have helped someone out.

Special shout out to scrosler for making the SD card fix and hosting the PH98IMG.zip on his site.
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
I will probably never go back to GB but thank you for putting this together for those users who would like to.
[HTC Rezound] Fiosonlinegaming:
LOL, no doubt.

The current latest leak: 3.11.605.22 is too good! I don't know why anybody would want to go back to Gingerbread.
[HTC Rezound] taptaptouch:
Do it for teh kernalz!!:p but hopefully we have some great kernels when the source is released
[HTC Rezound] cpurick:
Very helpful until these battery/heat issues are resolved.
[HTC Rezound] pkopalek:
The GB Kernels all wind up crashing the phone eventually, except for the Non-OC ones.

Since my phone is my alarm clock, I have to be 100% stable.

The ONLY OC Kernel that I have been able to run for weeks without waking up to a rebooting phone (and being late for work), period, is this one

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1496934

All day, every day. And I'm on not even on the .22 ICS leak, I'm on .1.

dsb's, ziggy's, and all the other GB kernels EVENTUALLY make bootloops happen (even though I always ran them at 1.5ghz), even if it takes days or weeks.

This guy's ICS kernels are perfect. Minor tweaks, and From-Factory level stability.

ICS wasn't ready a month ago, IMO, but it's ready now. .22 (and .1, in my opinion) are ready for launch. Smooth as butter.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Why is it that some people have issues with the battery and heat (ME) and others have all day battery life and no heat issues?? And my radios seem to be worse but most people say they are better??
[HTC Rezound] infamous_6969:
Thanks for the helpful instructions. I may end up going back if I cant find an ICS rom that has the functions working that I need.
[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
What functions do you need that don't work?
[HTC Rezound] dabombcra:
I too wonder the same thing. I am having terrible heat issues and my battery is drained in 4-5 hours if I use the Rezound. I love some of the features of ICS, but no enjoyable to use the phone with out it heating up is bothersome.

-- Sent from my TouchPad using Communities
[HTC Rezound] cpurick:
The instructions work, but I had two problems -- first, my WiFi only works with the latest ICS kernel for some reason. Must have something to do with the radio changes, even though others have been able to run other kernels on theirs.

Also, it's now hotter than ever running GB -- probably because there's no WiFi and all traffic's going over 3g/4g.

Back to the leak for now. God, I hope they fix this.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
just curious, will this work to go back to old firmware and still run the older ICS roms? i have a suspsicion that either new firmware or soemthing else might be MURDERING my battery nowadays, and i'm wondering if i should go back to old firmware or not.
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
Nope there is no going back. That hope was defeated a couple of days ago when they couldn't get the hboot to downgrade like the EVO.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
meh oh well lol thanks for the reply, though! and the writeup, either way
[HTC Rezound] cpurick:
I found and applied the fix for WiFi errors, and I'm now back up running GB. Still have the new radio firmware, so only time will tell if it's any better with power/heat.
[HTC Rezound] dabombcra:
Please keep us updated on the power/heat

-- Sent from my TouchPad using Communities
[HTC Rezound] aostl:
Better. For me anyway.
[HTC Rezound] cpurick:
Phone still will not charge unless it's turned off. If I put it in airplane mode it will charge overnight. But if I'm actually using it while plugged in to power, it will actually discharge even if it doesn't get very hot. The heat, btw, is much better since reverting to GB, even with the ICS baseband.

I did not have this particular problem before I took the leak.
[HTC Rezound] Romans8vs1:
I was able to get back to the GB rom, but now my SD card (internal & external) wont mount. I've ran the SD card fix a couple of times.

Any idea what could be wrong?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Weeeman:
Im looking for UK orange stock rom and cant find it on samfirmware. I want to flash with odin from cm7 so need all files not the all in one.

Thanks
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] stupotty1210:
be hard to find, i cant find O2-UK stck rom!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Jekle_Ace:
Try sammobile.com, samfirmware.com is now defunct and hasn't been updated since end of 2011. You will need to sign up for another account go to the forum, Android phones, then Galaxy Ace and then look in provider firmware, you will probably have to use the firmware naming process tells you how to know what country its from and what date it was built and operator.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
What this does

Removes bloat, especially from HTC and Verizon. The full list is at https://github.com/muness/Rezound-DeSense/blob/master/apks_to_remove.txt . That includes all the APKs Scott Crosler removed in CleanROM Developer Edition 1.0 and everything listed in Quantumrabbit's safe to delete and safe to delete so long as other apps/services that use it also are lists and also all the APKs I identified as Sense 4.0 or bloat in Team PkmN - Venasaur Rom v3.2.0. The full list of APKs it removes is at https://github.com/muness/Rezound-DeSense/blob/master/apks_to_remove.txt

Install AOSP APKs for Browser, Calendar, Calculator, Email (see stock_apks directory)

Reboots the phone before FCs kick in

Has no options whatsover. Just run it. If you want to customize it, after download/extract, edit apks_to_remove.txt and desense.sh on Mac and Linux or desense.bat on Windows.

Before running this script

Make a Nandroid backup

Install the Sense ROM of your choice (I jump around between BAMF, CleanROM and RezROM)

Install a launcher and keyboard of your choice (I like Nova and SwiftKey X)

Connect the device to USB

If you have not done any of these steps do not use this script!

Using this script

Windows

Do the steps listed above (Before running this script)

Download the .zip file https://github.com/muness/Rezound-DeSense/zipball/v4

Expand it

Run desense.bat

Mac/Linux

Do the steps listed above (Before running this script)

Get adb working on your machine. If you need help, see http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK.

Download the .zip file https://github.com/muness/Rezound-DeSense/zipball/v4

Expand it

From the command line, go to that expanded directory

Run ./desense.sh

Thanks!

The awesome developers who provide the Sense ROMs that we can run this against.

Scott Crosler who provided me a list of apps to remove.

danutzz for the original DeSense scripts at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1382630

Quantumrabbit who collected and maintains a list of APKs that are safe to remove at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1532366

Show me the code

I have the scripts hosted at github.

Known issues

You don’t get AOSP status bar

You don’t get AOSP dialogs

You don’t get AOSP dialer or Phone or People app

You need to wipe data from the Google Play Store app

There’s still some HTC Sense stuff here. e.g. Phone, People, Camera, Gallery, Personalize setting.

You get whatever bugs the ROM you start with has. ;)

Requires that the ROM you're using has a boot.img which specifies ro.secure=0 in default.prop file. This gives adb connection root privileges.

Changelog

(muness on 6/11) v3 - Newts OnE XxX RLS 1 - The stock apps that this tools installs *don't work*. I get FCs on Browser, Calculator and Calendar. LiveWallpaper, Clock and Email work.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Thank you! Going to give this a go in just a little
[HTC Rezound] justreboot:
Seems to be ok with Clean Rom as well... would be nice to get the ICS dialer tho :)
[HTC Rezound] muness:
For CleanROM, I suggest using CleanROM Developer Edition. It's pretty much this, but you get Scott's support! :)

I too would love to have the ICS dialer. I have no idea how to get that to work though. I tried the naive approach, replacing HtcDialer, HtcContacts, ContactsProvider and Phone APKs and I get FCs on boot up that make the phone unusable. If any one can point me in the right direction, I'd be happy to delve deeper.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Ok so I ran this on RezROM and phone won't boot.

Comes up to boot screen, does that and automatically shuts off.

Any ideas?
[HTC Rezound] muness:
Sorry, I only tried 3.1. Are you on RezROM 3.2?
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Yes.

10 chars.
[HTC Rezound] clemson91:
Hi, thanks a lot for the tool, it's very helpful. I just used it on RezROM ICS 3.2 and worked perfectly.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
Marino, can you describe what you did? Since clemson91 had no problems with RezROM 3.2 I can't diagnose without more input into what you did or how it stopped booting for you.
[HTC Rezound] clemson91:
I already had Go Launcher and swiftx running and set as defaults, that might of helped. Thanks again
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
I did forget to install a keyboard but had a launcher, could simply forgetting the keyboard cause all this?

Sent from my ADR6425LVW
[HTC Rezound] muness:
You are very welcome. And thanks for the report.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
I'll try once more properly when I flash RezRom 3.3 tonight.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
I was able to flash RezROM 3.3 (the battery tweaks intrigued me) this morning, flash TitaniumBackup, booted up, skipped all the setup stuff, restored my apps with TitaniumBackup, set NovaLauncher as the default launcher and SwiftKey X as the default keyboard, and then ran the script from Windows and it is worked fine.

How did it go for you?
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Still didn't work.

I don't get it, I had Apex and another keyboard this time.

The script says all sorts of things I don't understand like adb server out of date, killing daemon, it tries to run it but nothing successfully.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
Are you running it on Windows? I'll add a way to capture the output.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
I'm running on Windows XP.
[HTC Rezound] clemson91:
Make sure that USB debugging is on, and that the HTC sync isn't active on your computer. HTC sync had messed up other desensing tools for me before.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
I'm gonna hold tight for a few days, I like where I'm at right now, I'll let you know when I try again, thanks.
[HTC Rezound] bigsnack:
To get ICS dialer(at least when dialing a number not when in call) all you do is replace the HTC people/contact widget with the ICS one and you should have ICS dialer now. At least I had it when I use to do that.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
When I tried that I got nonstop force closes on boot. Maybe I was doing something wrong: Which APKs did you remove? With which did you replace them with?
[HTC Rezound] bigsnack:
In root explorer I replaced the htc people app with the stock ICS people app. Once you do that you have to correct the permission in the replaced ICS people app for it to work. Once I restarted my phone all was good.
[HTC Rezound] contactwajeeh:
So it means that you only replaced the people(contacts)apk and not the phone apk...?
[HTC Rezound] bigsnack:
At least for me the people/contact app included the stock ICS dialer, except in call where it still was Sense.
[HTC Rezound] contactwajeeh:
I am unable to get it bro. When ever I replace the HTCcontacts.apk and phone.apk with the ICS CM9 ones. I loose the signal. Can you please guide me in the right way. I did set the permissions correctly...
[HTC Rezound] bigsnack:
What happens if you just try each one separately to see what the issue could be? Again I only replaced the contact app.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
I only *added* Contacts.apk from AOSP 4.0.3 and got the non-stop FCs. Even when I deleted using adb, the FCs persisted.

Although I didn't chmod the file. I wonder if that was the issue. I'll test again.
[HTC Rezound] contactwajeeh:
I am not getting a FC's but the signal is gone for ever. Need to replace them with the originals then I got the phone back... Dont know where I am going wrong with these things...
[HTC Rezound] muness:
Huh, when I remove HtcContacts.apk and add Contacts.apk from 4.0.3 stock, the signal doesn't disappear, but I don't see a dialer or phone app in my launcher's application list. (after doing a chmod)
[HTC Rezound] contactwajeeh:
I replaced the phone.apk and htccontacts.apk with the one from CM9
[HTC Rezound] muness:
V2 of the script uploaded. Changelog in the OP. Tested with BAMF 2.1. Alas, no exciting new changes like stock dialer.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
V3 uploaded.

Now also removes Sense 4.0 APKs such as those in Team PkmN - Venasaur Rom v3.2.0. Also tested with that ROM (briefly). Again, install a launcher and a keyboard *before* running this script.
[HTC Rezound] clemson91:
Very nice thank you
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
this is interesting. I want to try this on nils business sense. With scrosler spending more time on the one x, I really want a desensed rom that still has verizon sso working so I can have my nfl app. I tried running sense roms and after clean rom de 1.4, they just seem a little slow.

Do you know which ones I need to remove from the script to keep verizon services intact? Just nfl app and whatever verizon stuff needed for it.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
Added a note that the apps this installs are not working on Nets OnE XxX RLS 1.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
My guess is that you should leave all the verizon apks and the com.mobitv.client.nfl2010.apk . If that works, let me know and I'll whip up a new version that you separates de-Sensing from de-Verizoning. ;)
[HTC Rezound] disconnecktie:
Will this tool work for the thunderbolt too? I know this is the rezound thread but this would be awesome if it works on other devices.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
It should work. Please test and let me know!
[HTC Rezound] disconnecktie:
Will do. :)
[HTC Rezound] muness:
If it doesn't work, please let me know which ROM it is and I'll take a stab at figuring out why - looking at the apk list may be enough to figure it out.
[HTC Rezound] disconnecktie:
I am a little worried it might not because it has built in tweaks to rosie. I'm going to find out if there is a way to disable those tweaks or I might consider leaving rosie in and let the end user decide what they want to use for a launcher.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
The script removes Rosie, and that works fine whether there are Rosie tweaks or not.

It's reasonable to leave it in and let the user pick a different default launcher. To do so, just leave out that one rm command if you're on Windows or remove it from the files to remove list on linux/mac.
[HTC Rezound] disconnecktie:
I say the rosie is tweaked but it's more like there are extended settings. I'm thinking the extended rosie settings will cause problems.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
Those are tweaks to SystemUI.apk AFAIK. Anyway, extended quicksettings work fine for me even when Rosie.apk is removed.

Make a backup and give it a try. ;)
[HTC Rezound] disconnecktie:
Ok great. Ill let you know as soon as I find out if the devils is ok with me makig a desensed version.
[HTC Rezound] agentofchaos:
i second this.....

---------- Post added at 05:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:22 PM ----------

ah, already addressed in the OP, sorry :D
[HTC Rezound] disconnecktie:
It worked. You can put infected eternity rom for the thunderbolt on the list of roms it works for.

Update: I have found one issue so far. None of the apks that are installed during the process of desensing work. They aren't showing up in my app drawer but they are where they are supposed to be.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
I just posted v4. Anyone who's used this: if you're having trouble mounting your SD cards to your PC, that was my fault. I suggest extracting PCSC.apk from the ROM's .zip, and then running the command: adb push PCSC.apk /system/app.

Sorry for the bug. I am not sure when/how that slipped in.
[HTC Rezound] muness:
Doh. :/ What do you mean by them not showing in the app drawer?

Also, can you check that they are in /system/app?

Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] disconnecktie:
They are in system/app. None of them work though.
