ROM toolbox may even work. It has a feature to replace status bar icons. Like every other mod, its risky. But it works. Depending on the ROM. Haven't used it for a while. I defected to the Nokia lumia 920. Haven't used my SR for a while, but I enjoy the users here. Well most of them. Go Blackhawks !!

You're the man, toyes! It's a TW GB rom. Thanks alot!

Thank you for the suggestion. The Skyrocket is an awesome phone and has a big and helpful community with lots of roms. It's still a decent device yet me being somewhat of a gadget geek I'll be getting a new phone soon. :cowboy:

Hmmm should I get an i7 4771 or spend ~$80 more and get a 4770k?
[Off-topic] jd1639:
If you want to oc it go with the k. In my experience you don't see all that much with overclocking
[Off-topic] jadwv2210:
I kind of agree. Although oc had helped me squeeze quite a few years out of my Core2Duo wolfdale lol. Have it oc'd from 2.6ghz to 4ghz.

Depends what you're doing if you notice it. Light work like checking emails, fb, and playing music you will see no difference.

[Off-topic] occupational_hazard:
I have a 4770k and have not oc'ed in a few months. I have no need to at this point in time. You might consider the 4670k. Its only 4 threads as opposed to the 8threads of the 4770. But would be fine for gaming. And every day stuff at hand.

I run a slight oc to 4.2 everyday but when I'm editing and stuff I run it at 4.7 on all cores.

My msi twin frozr 760 is pretty quiet. I used to oc at 4.2 when i was folding. I have been dieing to give my new mobo a whirl.

[Off-topic] T.J. Bender:
The non-removable battery is always a buzzkill for me. Batteries don't hold up as long as phones do, and it's nice to just go on Amazon and buy a new battery for $12 instead of having to take the phone apart because the thing only lasts for 12 hours on a single charge now. Lack of an external SD card slot also bothers me.

That said, everything else about the phone is sexy. If I had the dough, I'd probably spring for a 32GB.
[Off-topic] Starymari:
Mine has been really good so far and I had to go for a 32GB cuz I was so used to having my memory card on my Skyrocket and it was only $50-ish more.

[Off-topic] robinsonj:
LMAO!!

More of a "learn from my mistakes" than a question...

So, I'm guessing I'm one of fairly few on here who's been around the internet long enough to remember thinking "Wow! That cool new Gofer interface is a really great graphic way to access information, and way better than ftp. I sure hope it catches on, too bad it's so much slower on super quick 9600 modem than a good old terminal session."

That said just to illustrate how dumb I feel now... I have been having WiFi issues with my i727R since the first ICS ROMs came out... I thought it was my router, since a reboot of the router always fixed it... now there are many more wireless devices in the house and several of them seem to have some issues getting past the "obtaining ip" stage... until a reboot. I assigned them all static ip addys, but that only seemed to help a little... I shortened the lease time to 1 hour in case it was keeping it blocked... I tried what I thought was everything.

So... all that says router replacement to me. Today I popped home for lunch and was pissed off that the phone wouldn't just reconnect... logged into my router and puzzled over settings a bit...

Out of the blue I pop open Google and type in "skyrocket obtaining ip address"... low and behold hundreds of hits all from around the time ICS came out... all resolved in exactly the same way... change router WiFi security type to AES Only.

I can't believe I've been rebooting my router several times per week (then having to go to unblock-us and reset that) since 2011ish... G O O G L E had the answers a thousand times over for the past few years...

The moral of the story?

A) apparently I'm an idiot

B) highly likely that ANY problem I encounter others have too

C) if rebooting something works... that is NOT the correct workaround

Enjoy all...

Lol. I used to get roped in all the time. Got so many infractions just for being in the vicinity. It's a shame though- because of being around them when I first got here no matter how much I contribute I'll never be a "recognized developer".

Oh yeah... And way back I posted a thread in general with the definition of "troll" to get their attention. So forevermore I'll always be a troll to the mods :(

Oh well. I'll just keep being helpful as always ;)

Tough love for all! Mtdew had his place here... That's for sure. His services were necessary back in the days the mods ignored EVERYTHING. Can't even tell you how many posts I used to report that just got ignored. People acted like real douches back then.

Nowadays the mods wear jackboots and everything is kept in order ;)

I have an pretty good idea of what trumpets and tubas sound like but when you get to trombones and french horns, well sometimes they could just be trumpets or tubas.

[Off-topic] car vs driver:
That's just crazy talk. In this kid of car, making that much power streetable is an enormous undertaking - you'd basically have to change up everything from suspension, to brakes, transmission, tires, etc. It gets REALLY expensive when you do that.

But, it really comes down to what your goal for the car is. This project is based on a building a streetable cruiser with enough power and suspension to have fun without going over the top (and blowing the budget). It's my dad's retirement project, he'll go to shows once in a while and drive it on the weekends when the weather is nice.

The funny thing is, it'll pretty much spank any modern super car in a straight line for a fraction of the price. On a track though, this car isn't setup for it, so I'll stick with the GT3 :)

Here's a video of the first time it moved under its own power. At this point, there's just some detail work left to do and then we can get the body on and have it painted. It'll be tagged and on the road this spring.
