[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
I also have a Trident Aegis a S-line TPU case and a dizitronic matte tpu case.

The TPU cases provide very little protection against shock or anything. They are good for keeping the phone from actually touching a surface and they add extra grip. I will sometimes use one when I'm home or at the office and my phone is just sitting on a desk while I work but I don't feel comfortable going out into the world with one. Volume and power buttons are also a bit difficult to use with tpu cases.

The Trident Aegis on the other hand stays on my phone 90% of the time. It adds a layer of protection that makes me comfortable and gives it a bit of rugged style. The design of the case also enhances the volume and power buttons and makes them very easy to push. A few weeks ago my baby grabbed my phone off a picnic table and dropped it on the concrete. No issues whatsoever, the Aegis absorbed the impact. It does add a bit more bulk than most people would like but its smaller than the ballistic or otterbox.

My recommendation is buy a few cases and go with what feels best for you. My phone is with me 24x7 so I didn't mind spending a few extra bucks on cases and screen protectors to find the combo I liked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
I had the black TPU and then later I bought the Aegis.

The TPU is good for what it's worth. It's cheap, looks nice, doesn't add bulk, and sort of protects your phone. The Aegis is real protection though. It DOES add considerable bulk, but it's also cheap and it looks nice. The drop protection is a lot better than the TPU though and it also has covers for the USB and mic ports so it prevents dust. My number one pet peeve with the TPU was that it collected dust, so the Aegis is perfect for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] magnumtripod:
I just received the Trident Aegis today. I bought it after using the Otterbox Commuter case. I know some people were complaining about the buttons being hard to press on the commuter, but without anything else to compare it to I thought it was fine and didn't understand why people were having problems.

Well, I put the Aegis on today and all I can say is wow! The buttons are SO much easier to press. It actually feels good pressing them lol. The OB and the Aegis are similar in design (with the Aegis being more aesthetic) but there is a bit more rubber exposed on the Aegis which improves the grip a bit more. The OB is just way to slippery. I'm happy with the Aegis and will be sticking with it; most likely as my permanent case. And for $18 on Amazon you cant go wrong
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw3bb10:
I have the TPU case. Its nice. Though, made from cheap materials, its starting to show its wear. I think I may check out this Trident Aegis case, looks awesome!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kd0axs:
Here's another good case. This one is very similar to the Ballistic case, but not quite as bulky. Like the Ballistic and Trident cases, it has an inner silicone layer and then a hard plastic layer that goes on over it. I also like how it has thicker silicone on the corners to better absorb the impact of a drop.

It's available in multiple colors, I got the yellow one a couple weeks ago and I just ordered the pink version for the wife's phone. I also like the look of the white one, I just might order up one of those too.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pheno.menon:
It's just as fugly as the Ballistic, lol.

To OP: get yourself a Trident if you want some color, or the Case Mate Tough if you're ok with black.

Both of them are amazing cases.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kd0axs:
I guess everyone has their own opinion. I like the look of this case much better. The Trident is ugly IMO.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ronbo85:
trident adds small amount of bulk but blends well with phone- and protection is

well worth the small increase- the one drop you make with tpu- could be the last one to cost you $$$ Much less bulky looking than ballistic- and opinions are personal- evryone has one- wrong and right. In this case- Ugly is in eye of blind beholder.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pheno.menon:
The thing is, if Ballistic (or the company you linked) made cases without those goofy padded corners, they would be much better looking. At my work everyone I asked preferred the look of the Casemate Tough to the Ballistic precisely for this reason. Also, they make getting the phone in and out of pockets more difficult than it should be.

That white case would look downright sexy if it had normal corners.. I'm sure there isn't that much difference in terms of protection offered.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kd0axs:
I agree it would look better without the big corners, but they provide extra protection in case of a drop. I guess that's a trade off I don't mind.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rum2rum:
Thanks everyone. I am now ordering my Trident Aegis. I think the bulk is worth it if it will save my phone. Plus my phone will have some color to it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ajs2677:
This is the first phone I've owned that I've used a case with. I was a bit hesitant because I love how the phone looks on its own. I bit the bullet and grabbed the Aegis, and I haven't regretted it one bit. It still looks fantastic and I've had a couple of accidents that could have easily been phone killers, but there's not a blemish on my phone OR the case. I'm impressed with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw3bb10:
Anyone have any REAL pictures of what the phone looks like with the Trident case on?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] joemaldo:
What are people using for heavy duty protection? My job is pretty rugged outside in the elements a lot. Right now I'm using the seidio convert case and its nice but its dosent have a built in screen protector, it comes with a stick on one but I've never had good luck with them. I had an otterbox defender with my evo 4g and it was great i alsohad great customer service with otterbox. I think I'm gonna get another defender series otterbox I'm just curious if there are any other hard core protective cases i should look into.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] toobz:
Just got the Aegis in red. Can't wait to put it on!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hot0m:
Are the white areas grippy silicone or hard plastic? Is the case just as easy to remove as the ballistic case?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kd0axs:
The white part is hard plastic that snaps on over the inner silicone layer. It's almost an exact copy of the Ballistic case
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hot0m:
Thank you for your reply kd0axs. Looks like a good deal for $13. Heck I paid $20 for my ballistic case. I'll wait for my eBay bucks to become active to pick one up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw3bb10:
Anyone have pics of the REAL phone in a TRIDENT AiGES case? Id love to see what it looks like before I buy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw3bb10:
The Aegis has a built in screen protector?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pheno.menon:
No, it just comes with one. I haven't used the included screen protector but from what I've heard, you're better off getting your own like an SGP or Reallook.

So I'm getting the sleep of death on my tablet, Im currently using ICS 4.0.3 FLEXREAPER-R12.5, though this shouldn't matter, because im getting it on every ICS rom I have tried.

Upon googling my problem i came across a similar post here on xda, and someone mentioned that it is most likely a issue with my bootloader. Unfortunatly, I have no idea what that means.

http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1547859.html

Any help you can give me, would be greatly appreciated.

Running 12.5 and had the sod on all the bootloders, tried all the hc and ics bootloaders and all gave me sod. Civito uploaded me a version. 022 or something like that. It works with no sod and everything else works very good. I am looking for the link to the zip and will post in a short when I find it.

Past this into the address bar of the browser and it should download to your download folder. Copy to external SD card and flash only takes a second. Or go to the flexreaper in developers page 180 for the link.

Can't download free or already purchased apps? Seems to be happening more frequently since we've had ics roms to flash on our skyrockets. Go to manage apps > all > Google play store, clear data and uninstall updates. Then go to Google services framework and clear data. Then reboot and sign in to Google play store again.

I found this solution by searching, but many more of the posts were people reporting the problem over and over, and the solution was kind of buried beneath the cries for help.

I tried your method for my issue and it didn't help so I'll challenge you solving mine.

I cant download apps using data only using wifi, every time I try I get a 404 error.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] boobah204:
Heh.. that's an issue alright. I've found myself throttled as of today so I'm also having much more success with wifi than the mobile network... but I'm not getting 404 errors, just maliciously slow connections.. the closest guess I can venture is to look in settings > more > mobile networks > access point names > reset to default apns. Either that or maybe flash a different radio. Is the store the only place you're getting errors?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
Ye rest of the data usage works fine even while tethering. Just to mention I used lcd modder pro fix on the market but I never heard anyone else with this bug.

I had to set the apn manually anyway because the default one from my providers makes 2 profiles 1 for internet and 1 for mms and the phone cant really handle it so I had to combine them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] boobah204:
Same result with the internet profile?

Maybe uninstall store, remove Google account from device, reinstall store and sign in anew with the account? If that doesn't work, I'd venture to say it may be a problem with your provider. Unless you know people on the same provider without the problem...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
Considering I'm usually around wifi it never bothered me so much and until theres an offical 4.0.3 I'm probably not gonna flash any new rom. I'll just wait for the next rom flash and see how it is. Doubt its the provider because my brother has the international GSII and I haven't heard him complain about this issue.

Thanks for trying to help anyway

Try updating by going to settings about phone and system updates. Update all of them, restart the phone and call your VM or talk to someone via phone call. Worth a shot. There's a logical explanation that they are both having the same issue at the exact same time. Probably something your over looking?

I have been trying to find a solution that can remotely locate or wipe my EVO 4G through an SMS interface. I have tried a whole bunch of the apps on the market but I cannot seem to find one that meets my needs. The problem that I have is due to the fact that I keep my mobile data turned off when I am not using the phone. The apps I have tried all require an internet connection to send out the location report.

Does anyone know of an app that can reply to a special SMS phrase with lat/lon coordinates? Or an app that can activate the mobile data connection from an SMS phrase? I am sure that someone has thought of this already but I cannot seem to find one.

Thanks

Edit: It shouldnt matter, but just in case, I am running decks pb22 ICS build.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
The app you are looking for is Tasker. Amazing app, basically works on "if/then" variables. You can set a task for when the phone receives a text from a certain number, or with a certain phrase (passcode), the phone can turn on gps and 3g, and even text you back with a Google Maps live link of where the phone is.

Check out their website, specifically the tasks wiki, and you will see all the amazing things this app can do.

I see where your going with this, however on a phone I doubt you could. Phones lack the resources to have two of the same thread running at the same time. I guess in theory it's possible, much like a PC, it would depend on the application and whether it allows for multiple instances of itself to be run, and on the phone, putting both applications into memory and not overwriting each other.

So to answer, I guess it's possible, lol.

I've been following up on this thread because I'm also in the process of flashing a new ICS rom on my Tmo Galaxy S2.

Problem is, I can't find the Nexusmod rom anywhere on the 'T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II Android Development' forum or any roms by the user "goldfinger". Was the rom removed/name change?

Also, for those who flashed BlackEdition and has a wii remote, does the wii controller work with your device? Thanks a lot.
