[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrshades812:
I wish they would make a commuter the same blue as the defender. I really dig that color. Black and pink only? Pfft

I tried a defender on my og evo and it was too damn bulky for me. Also, I can't wear the holster at work... Keep breaking the damn things!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
Do you mind posting a side by side comparison of the phone with and without the case? I would appreciate it!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
Sure. Unfortunately, the Amazon shipment I was tracking was something else - someone sent me a surprise and my UPS account picked it up. So, I'm still waiting like everyone else.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] riceatusc:
htcpedia says my defender is on backorder. glad that I ordered a cheap tpu case the other day and that it is on its way
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
hey browning, did you get your otterbox yet? :O
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
Sadly, no. I see some Best Buys have them so I may stop by one this weekend and cancel the Amazon order. But, I haven't even turned the phone on yet. Waiting for full root first so no hurry.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
Wow. I can't believe you haven't turned on your phone yet haha. :claps:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
I'm getting itchy. I may try the root option that is in place now. I really want access to titanium so I can bring everything over from the old EVO. S-off is what I really want though
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
Yeah I'm not even touching that root until S-OFF is possible. Had to use my new EVO since my old one was a Hero XDD
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] th3b055:
I picked up a Defender case today. Drove home and could not stand how HUGE the phone felt with the case on. Didn't make it home, stopped by another BestBuy, and bought the pT case.. Don't have pics of the Otterbox but it's huge.. Well I'm also 5'5" :p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
I found the otterbox at best buy tonight and now have it. I posted a review in the other otterbox thread. Pretty pleased for the short time I've had it.

I did go with the root and while barely into the setup have had no issues and have already made my first purchase at 7-11 with NFC and google wallet. I think I showed the young clerk "the future" as his eyes were as big as saucers and all he could say was "WHOAAAA".
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
About google wallet...

what did you do in order for it to work? I tried it at McDonalds and it didn't work lol. Do I need to to the Google Wallet app for it to work? Because when I read the instructions, it just said to make sure that the phone was awake. D:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
Yes, you need the Google Wallet app. When I first entered the app it told me I needed an update. It directed me to the Play store to get the update. After it downloaded I had to enter my credit card information. At this point it looks like you have to have a CitiBank card - which I do have. You can also do a gift card or Google prepaid card. Because I am rooted it does say unsupported but it worked for me when I chose to "deny" SU access.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
Sorry. I meant if you need to open the app for it to work. I updated wallet, and set up a prepaid card. And it still didn't work, but then again I just woke up the phone; didn't go into the app itself.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
All you need to do is have the phone awake. Everything was automatic for me. I touched the phone to the terminal and it beeped and brought up my PIN screen. Told me to tap again to finalize. Very fluid.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
oh ok, must be the terminal then. D:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] FlaXB9R:
So I have seen that others already have their defender cases so I checked online and my best buy said it was available . I drive there and low and behold they don't have it in yet :mad:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
Did it show available in that particular store? If so, they most likely have it and were too lazy to check the warehouse area. I fought with the store I went to and after not accepting no they miraculously found the shipment tucked under a desk.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kmagn13:
Got mine at best buy... Removed the screen protector...can't stand the way it made the screen look
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] FlaXB9R:
Yeah I even checked while I was there on my phone and still said available . The guy swore it wasn't in and said he just put the platinum cases out for it . That makes me even madder to think it was there and they were to lazy to get/look for it :mad:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
Well, I can't guarantee it was there but here's how mine went down.

I looked on BB's site to see what stores showed it in stock and went to the closest one. They were fairly busy so I waited about 10 or 15 minutes to talk to a mobile rep since I couldn't find it on the shelf. They checked a couple bins and cabinets and said "nope, not here yet". So, I pulled it up on their website, made them check the SKU and it said they had 12. They were all clueless. So, the girl helping me wandered back to the warehouse and came back a few minutes later. She said the warehouse guy was going through the latest shipment trying to find it.

Another 10 or 15 minutes elapses, she goes back to check, comes back and says they don't have it. At this point I'm annoyed. I said "it's here, your system shows it and I can order it for in store pickup online for this store so it has to be somewhere." Now, the other guy, let's call him lazy mother ****, chimes in and says, "oh, in store pickup means we can order it and it'll be here in a few days."

Um, uh, yeah, here's where I about lose it. I looked at him and laughed because I really wanted to knock him out for such a dumb comment. I paused, gathered my thoughts for a moment and replied "obviously, you aren't familiar with how your store or your own company works. Let me explain to you what online ordering and in store pickup mean." So, I educated him and another girl decides it is time for another look. Within about 5 minutes she comes back and says "oh, they were shoved under a desk or shelf or something". 5 minutes later I was checked out and had it wrapped nicely around the EVOLTE.

Note: I'm an impatient, defiant a$$ so I wasn't about to back out when I was 100% sure it was there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] FlaXB9R:
/\ Thanks

Maybe I'll go back tomorrow and see if I can't get them to do something . Had my son with me today so I just blew it off I'm going to expect some answers tomorrow . I can't stand not having a good case . After using the defender on my OG I have to have it now too......
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
Hope that helps. I didn't even turn the phone on until I had the case. This is the first Otterbox for me and so far I love it. It does add girth to the phone but just enough. The scary part is I don't know that my hand would handle a phone any bigger. I don't have small hands but with the size of the phone and the Otterbox on top I'm about at my dexterity limits.

I hope you get the case tomorrow. I was really frustrated that both Otterbox and Amazon did not have them sooner. I had one on backorder with Amazon but had that cancelled as soon as I left BestBuy.

Otterbox Defender + Zagg Shield HD

I just puchased an otterbox defender and a Zagg shield HD both for $60 from BB.

It was called the 2 for one special. It may just be this week, I would check out soon.

Defender was regular $50

Zagg shield HD was regular $25
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] riceatusc:
I always remove those screen protectors. they always appear to be dirty and smudged.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] FlaXB9R:
Yes I finally got my defender :D It fills complete now . Also fills half the size of my OG Evo . Nice cases highly recommend it . Also otterbox is great to deal with if your case happens to break they replace for free pretty much no questions asked .

The only negative feedback I can give is Google Wallet didn't work at McDonalds . I don't know if it is the case or root but I used it yesterday at 7-11 while rooted without the case no problem . Has anyone else tried Wallet with the defender case ?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
I had some issues with it today but the case is not to blame. I have not used the phone without the case and wallet worked fine until today. May have been merchant issues though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jneelddesigns:
I got the same. Both put on the same day as release. Lucky for me my local sprint store had them both n stock already. Every employee was acting as if I was a movie star because I had my EVO lte already. They were all huddled around me, even other customers! LoL! The force is strong with this one... LoL.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] browning:
Do you know if this deal is still going on? I bought the Otterbox from BB but didn't even notice the Zagg deal with it and would like to get it in case I decide to strip the protetor off of the Otterbox.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ticklemepinks:
i'd take the deal too, but and otterbox defender and a zagg invisisheild, kinda overkill ain't it, otterbox alone covers every aspect of the fone except a small corner of the screen, why get both??? lol
[EVO 4G General] Koncrete:
Bought my Evo in 2010 and about 6 months ago the kickstand pops out easily... It's to the point now where even laying face down if I gently tap the phone the kickstand pops out...

Anyone know if I can fix this without completely taking the phone apart?
[EVO 4G General] meekell:
My wife's EVO has the same problem. I took it apart thinking I could tighten it up. I couldn't disassemble the kick stand and suspect the problems in the spring. I'm afraid there's not much you can do but if anyone else has any experience let's hear it.
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Cut the spring with wire cutters and remove it, then get thin self adhesive Velcro cut it to fit and attach it to kickstand and kickstands groove, it will stick up just slightly but will stop popping out. The spring is shot and will only get worse to the point of u close it and it pops right back out instantly, the other option is a hard shell case that will hold the kickstand down.
[EVO 4G General] scottspa74:

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] GoGs777:
Hello!

Here I am, floating through the Samsung waters :D

I've stuck on one part, of course; my phone is bricked, computer reads it only half way and ODIN doesn't even show any signs of life and I have no possibility to rewrite firmware up there.

What is it all about?

I've flashed the ICS up there through stock recovery before I saw on xda that new cwm or some other new recovery should be written. First, it gives me the tpm/sideload error every time I try to install new recovery, I can't even do the factory reset, anything. I can enter the recovery normally, it's just that I can't install anything. I've tried with several roms, some of them pass through normally, but the device doesn't want to boot, and when it is turning on, it just shows samsung logo and nothing else.

When I enter the recovery, it shows me this error:

Appling Muti-CSC

E: failed to mount /system (invalid argument)

and when I try to install something from that recovery it shows me this:

E: error in /tpm/sideload/package.zip

I must remark that the packages I downloaded are 100% valid, the card is regularly formated.

After that, I've tried with ODIN. I enter the download mode, but my device is recognized as modem mode. I've installed the drivers, I have good cable, I've done every little thing they mention on xda. So, let's say that my device is properly installed. But it is in modem mode only when I turn on download mode.

When I turn it to recovery mode, then it recognizes this:

-samsung usb CDC composite device (that is under the USB controllers and it is normally installed.)

-CDC abstract control model (ACM)

-CDC ACM data

-CDC Obex data

-CDC object exchange

These last ones are not properly installed, but when I send it to look for it in folder where the drivers of the device are unpacked, it says they are not found.

Is there a possibility that my computer did not manage to install all the drivers, considering that I installed them after bricking, and not before?

Is there a possibility that I manage to manually force it to recognize drivers and install them?

Is there any way that I can make it to connect with ODIN and write him official GB ROM?

Please help me, I wouldn't want to take it to service!

Using what version of cwm

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackdiamond01:
Here's what I did:

I did a google search for a logo and it pulled up several results in the stock browser. When I tap the image, nothing happens. If I long press the image, I get the option to view it, save it, or set it as a wall paper. If I chose view it, I get another page with the image so small you can't see it (thumbnail sized).

The same thing happens with Chrome. Can anyone tell me what's up with this? Am I doing something wrong here?

BTW, I tried to search the forums, but couldn't find what I needed. Please redirect me if this has already been addressed/fixed.:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
I save full images all the time. Press and hold, save, then its in your download folder.

It doesn't load thumbnails for me. Make sure you load the full image and don't press and hold the actual thumb nail image, otherwise that's the version you'll save.

I just ordered an extended battery and battery door and I am wondering if there is any case out there that will fit with it? :(
[Motorola Atrix 2] jstrayy:
Guess I'm gonna leave my phone naked. I had to end up wrapping the battery in tape before it fit snug enough to power the phone -_-
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
Where did you get the battery and how does it perform????? Also sure you could find a universal holster..... Might also be able to mod an otter box by cutting it with a dremel will protect the important parts Just a suggestion.....
[Motorola Atrix 2] jstrayy:
I'm not handy with tools, and I purchased it on amazon. They are sending me a replacement so let's see what happens. As far as holsters go... ehh negative lol. I wish otterbox would release a commuter to fit it because I'm keeping this phone for a while.
[Motorola Atrix 2] bfinch:
I got the Motorola extended battery from at&t and just cut my otterbox defender with a dremel and it fits perfectly.

and for anyone looking for an extended battery, my att store has them for 25 with the back plate. I believe they are 50 on Motorola.com

So check your att store first
[Motorola Atrix 2] jstrayy:
Amazon has them for $36 but like I said, I had to put tape on my battery so....

Check out extended battery (2600mAh) and battery door at Moto site.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarlowXim:
I currently have a Captivate that has the following error:

Baseband Unknown

IMEI: is blank or null

CSC: Present

Steps that I have already taken:

1) I suspected that nv_data.bin had crapped out and restored a previous backup and it still did not work. (note I copied it back via correct permissions "chown 1001.1001/ radio.radio)

2) have reflash the baseband as well still did not work.

3) downgraded to stock firmware on a gingerbread release.

4) deleted nv_data and hidden .nv_data backup --> I was hoping it would generate a generic IMEI but unfortunately it did not work either

Steps to reproduce this problem:

Unknown just spontaneously happened perhaps ext4 partition somehow got corrupted for efs although I didn't see any files missing or inaccessible. Although reverting to rfs filesystem and using backups didn't seem to work either.

Question:

Has anyone ever had an error like this? and have a possible fix? Whether it be software or hardware such as z3x-box.

I'm currently perplexed of what the problem is.

Is there anyway to debug to determine what is at fault for the radio not working?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarlowXim:
I've taken a picture of the main board and removed the shielding seen here of the pcb

http://db.tt/YpiLp2jw

Could it be the baseband module hardware failure? Maybe a re ball may fix it?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Evo_Shift:
Ok I had a hell of a time trying to get on this irc when using sprint data. Connecting over wifi is fine but connecting with sprint required me to identify with sasl.

Here's how I did it.

I went to the irc on my computer http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=htc-evo-4g-lte&uio=d4

Chose my nickname, did the captcha and connected. Then I had to register because on the irc android app you are required to identify with sasl because of sprint's network or whatever. Remember this is when connecting on 3G.

In the irc chat box on my pc I typed:

/msg nickserv register your_password your_email_address

just use whichever password or email address you want in the line above. For example:

/msg nickserv register 12345 jimmy@aol.com

That registered my nickname with my chosen password and my email address. I had to confirm registration by checking my email and copying the command they sent into the irc chat line. It was like this:

/msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER jony50 nasndoand8q303jqin

Once I did that I was now registered.

Then I downloaded the andchat app(it allows sasl identification) and followed the setup and allowed it to add a few servers. I selected freenode (maybe had to longpress to edit) and entered the nickname I used to register under username, my password and I also entered #htc-evo-4g-lte in the autojoin line so that when I connect it autojoins the irc I want. You can put whatever name you want in the nick 1 slot and that is the name you will have in irc I believe but I used the name I used to register so my username and nick 1 are the same. The username and password are the two things required to get passed the sasl thing though.

Now when I start andchat and click freenode I am able to automatically connect to the evo lte irc on sprint data and can get through that sasl identification error that seems to happen.

Or, just use wifi and not worry about it ;) I just hate it when stuff doesn't work.

I found that the link that's posted at the top of the channel links to an outdated CM10.1 dated 20130718. Over on CM's site the latest nightly is dated with today's date: 20130730...so hmmm.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Solrax:
If you reread my post, you can see that I said latest unofficial updates, not official cm updates. The purpose of the link is to provide you with the latest nightly that deck has compiled that we can all agree is more stable than the previous he made :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Unreasnbl:
Nightly's are built by a bot automatically. Deck's builds are always ahead of what the bot gets, and Deck can resolve issues as they arise but the bot just builds whatever.

Say a new CM update breaks something ... Deck will know about it and can leave it out, or change it so it's not broken. Eventually CM will get the fix (sometimes from Deck) and the nightly's might be OK for a while.

Nevertheless, Deck's builds will always be ahead.

Deck's builds are experimental.

He generally leaves a pretty stable version available to everyone, which you see when you log into IRC.

Use the current one listed and you will be ahead of the bot, regardless of the date on it.

Experimental builds are not for everyone.

He generally knows what is working and what is not, so ...

Don't install an experimental build and complain that it does not work.

He tends to be working on a specific item and will ask people to test it out.

You should only test if you know how to get logs, and you know how all the normal ADB, Fastboot, etc. things work.

There is a core group of folks who do most of the testing.

Join the channel, be nice and maybe lurk for a while to see who is who.

Don't be sleevin', that's Gibson's job.

Thank you sirs for that very informative explanation and link as I clearly didn't know what I was talking about. I've been flashing and S-OFF'ing for a little over a year now and I am not ashamed to say I have so much to learn. I've lurked the channel a few days a week for the past month for maybe an hour or so and I can say the one thing I read being discussed that I learned was how to brick my phone if I needed to take it Sprint to get a replacement. Other than that, those in the room always seem to be on joke time so I'll try the room more during other times of the day and lurk and see what I can learn. *I normally lurk the room around 1p to 2 p while I'm at work.
