Nice review, and nice bumpercase. I like the more monochrome look of this bumper related to the 'original' N4 bumper. I left a comment on YouTube and liked FB :).

EDIT: why only open for US and Canada? It is not so hard to ship one of these to The Netherlands :)

Nice review. I have the same case/bumper. It works well. I did order a tougher seidio active case though. I just need more protection than this offers.

I think poetic should make a removable back for this bumper that pops in and matches the rest. Would be really nice if they did it right. I thought about sending them an email but whatever.

Edit: Not interested in winning the case.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hololodilolo:
The Xperia Z is not vibrate at all. Even at initial power up. Hard power reset also no vibrate. I tested from service menu and also not vibrate. Just got yesterday afternoon and didn't notice about it till night. Have you guys had any idea about this. Has anyone got same problem as me? Does it can solve by factory reset or is it hardware problem? Thanks !!! :confused:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CWHS:
I have the same problem as well, and the vibrator was working few hours ago
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hololodilolo:
Last monday, I tried to reflash the firmware with flashtool. So I started to download the firmware and wake up the phone to do backup. Suddenly I felt vibrate when I press home. Then I checked and the vibrator was working as usual :D I have no idea how it became alive. May be the phone was afraid that I'm going to flash him :D LOL :D
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CWHS:
The straight thing is use volume key switch to silent mode, the vibrator works, however doesn't work in Keyboard, keypad, apps
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hololodilolo:
My one is working as usual. Vibrate when ringing, keyboard, keypad, apps. The sound of vibrator is strong and louder than Xperia S. How about yours?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CWHS:
Just turn to worst, no respond to volume key to silent mode, also no respond in service test (*#*#7378423#*#*)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hololodilolo:
Sorry to hear that. My one also not respond in service test before but I haven't checked after working.

If your bootloader is still locking, go to service center. For me, the bootloader is unlocked and there is no relocking method until now. So I can't go for warranty. Hope the vibration is working until we can relock the bootloader.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CWHS:
lol...I bought it on yesterday, and only use it for half of day
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hololodilolo:

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonset:
same here.

the vibrator of my Xperia z seems to be occasionally working.

if i am continuously using it for quite a while (so its warm), then the vibrator stops working. (tested in all way)

if I leave it there until it cools down, the vibrator would work again.

is it a power saving scheme? lol don't know if I should send it to repair....

Lightning Launcher. Use free mode if you don't want a grid layout. It doesn't have a dock although you can set one up if you want to. It only has one home screen though it can scroll "infinitely" in any direction. You can download a addon if you really want multiple pages.

It takes a while to learn how to set everything up but it's one of the most customizable launchers around.

[Desire Themes and Apps] htc_desire_luke:
Hi there.

after trying a rom from RSK , I then hade liked CM10.1 rom, but was disappointed that the camera app was nowhere near as good.

so I was wondering if anybody could tell me the best full screen camera app??
[Desire Themes and Apps] UooU:
I'm using "Camera ICS" from Google play. Works fine with the CM 10.1 roms.
[Desire Themes and Apps] htc_desire_luke:
had been using ICS, but decided to pay for Camera zoom fx, even better than ICS i found .

many thanks
[Desire Themes and Apps] alicarbovader:
Sandvold's ICS has a very nice camera, nice contrast and saturation values. I downloaded his ROM, then extracted the camera app and replaced it wid VJ's CM10 camera. Works fine for me. you've got to replace the whole gallery app.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Blikjebier:
Do you have a link to the Sandvold's ICS ROM? I'm very happy with the VJ's CM10.1 (v1.0) ROM beside the stock camera app.

Thanks in advance!

And if so, can I just paste it with root ecplorer or do I have to unpack the Roman and flash it?

Thank you in advance!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlmancuso:
Extra power for my development

Well I have recently lost my job which is why I have been able to get all the roms out so quickly and with very few if any bugs.

Then on a few days ago PlatinumPenguin tells me that he has a 3vo sitting unused in his desk drawer. He states that the Og Evo just sounds so much better than the 3vo on his headphones. Long story short he is packing up the 3vo and giving it to me. Talk about a nice guy. So I will move to the 3vo as my phone with service and have the Og completely free for developing purposes.

Then yesterday my buddy tells me that he has an Inspire that his wife wants to put back on att. The problem is that he dropped it and shattered the screen. Then got upset about it and threw it at the wall damaging the power button and volume keys. No power button no phone right. Well it just so happens that I know a trick or two. He hands me the phone and started to walk away. I quickly do my trick and power up the phone before he gets a few feet away. I tell him to watch this phone boot up. Trick is you take the battery out, connect the charger to phone and wall, and then reinsert the battery. B.I.N.G.O. Houston we have lift off.

Now he offers me his bad esn evo with shattered screen if I can replace the screen and get the buttons working on the Inspire. For those unfamiliar with the Inspire it is part of the evo family. It was an att phone almost exactly like the Thunderbolt except it has no ffc.

Now I have two Og Evo's to use for development purposes. Now I can flash two roms at the same time :) First I have to root the two new to me evos and an Inspire.

Then maybe I can get the TNN Toolbox written up on post 1. With a collection of other tips and tricks for our evo on post two.

Umm time to hit the rooting section of all three phone. It has been awhile since I have done the Og (hw003 latest update from sprint installed Nov '11) the second evo came rooted. I did the 3vo back around august of last year. It took me some time to figure out exactly how to do it. I didn't use the wire trick which had just come out for the 3vo.

Anyways stay tuned for more innovations from Team No Name. They will be coming to a server near you soon. Long live the Evo. Even if we end up running 90% of our roms from a symlinked sdext. Heck who needs internal storage anyways.

Peace,

Love, and

Happiness

Re: The State of the elderly Evo :( Hopefully help will be on the way.

Oh wow I just powered up this bone stock evo 4.67.651.3. I am going to do a timed boot comparison but it sure looks like the stock one takes twice as long to boot.

It is kind of mind blowing to think that there really is that much difference between a stock and modded phone. They are both hw004 so I can use all my nands on both phones. Oh just so you know I had already booted my newly acquired evo a few time before I started both at the same time. No cheating since both already had a dc made.

This is almost like finding out my old EVO has cancer and the more I flash it the more the cancer spreads.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aw82:
I've had my OG Evo since December 2010 (still stock and unrooted). I recently BOYD'd it over to Ting and bought my wife a used OG Evo off of Glyde. Hers I rooted (my first root ever) without issue and am running MBQsniper's Triple S. I am planning to root my device once I get all the bugs worked out of hers, get SMS copied over, etc.

So, needless to say, I've recommitted to the OG Evo at least until Sprint (and therefore Ting) kills wimax and maybe longer. I'm glad there are people around that are much more knowledgable than I that are still paying attention to this device. It's also funny how everyone seems to be from Texas...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NxNW:
If this is the point you are making the thread title camouflages it somewhat. But it's a very good point.

Can I add another important point regarding the advanced age of our "elderly" Evos?

Batteries also decline with age.

There was a recent discussion around here about buying a replacement battery, which size, which brand, blah blah.

If you are replacing an original launch day stock battery that has been through hundreds of charge/discharge cycles, I can guarantee the details of your replacement battery do not matter as long as it is new.

I had been using a replacement battery for a while and just for the hell of it put in my original battery a week ago. After calibrating and letting it go through a few cycles, I was completely blown away by how bad the battery life was. Same ROM, same usage pattern, just went back to the old battery. I just ended a 13 minute call and watched my battery go from 50 to 15. What is that, 40 minutes of talk time on a full charge? No one would sell a mobile phone like that (not today, not three years ago, 1986 or ever).

So all you people inheriting old Evos (or trying to find new life for your own vintage Evos), please, before you clutter up ROM development threads with comments on battery life, REPLACE YOUR FREAKIN BATTERY FIRST.

Now if they could just "recondition" the non-replaceable flash memory to get rid of those bad blocks..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
True that. I had to go back to my original battery and it's stupid how bad battery life is.

As for the bad blocks, funny how 2 years ago, we believed you could write/re-write millions of times with no ill effects

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlmancuso:
Status 7 error is a fail on installing boot image. I suggest removing the lines in the installer script for the boot.img and flashing a kernel separate. The use of a smaller kernel may solve the issue.

Write cycles for NAND chips are in the order of 10k. Do we have fruity modders surpassing this number?!?

Wild!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlmancuso:
Well lets look at it this way. 10,000 writes over 3 years (oldest evo) over 365 days and we have 9.13 writes a day. So while a 10k life sounds long it is over quicker than you think.

Hope this helped shine some light on the subject.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noriyori:
So, I went and got myself into a pickle.

I flashed the latest miui.us and found the rotation wasn't working, so I went ahead and cleared everything, total wipe, system, data, format sd, flashed again, and still no rotation.

so after searching around I got the bright idea that it was the kernel, so I flashed chris41g's 41g-RC2.5-0718, then of course, it won't boot. so, I put on AGAT_FL16_repack2 using heimdall (I'm on a mac).

now I'm stuck where the external sd cannot be seen in recovery so I can't flash anything.

and the phone is not visible to adb or heimdall anymore, no matter what I do.

any suggestions would be great, all I can do is put it in recovery and download mode, and see only the internal sd from recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Takenover83:
Use a Odin one click of your choosing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noriyori:

I went again in recovery and formated everything, data, system etc... then adb found it so I side loaded the rom back on... whew.

If you have the drivers installed on your pc then Odin will see your phone in download mode.

and for whatever reason heimdall would not see it, I would of thought if odin could see it then so would heimdall.

But I was able to get adb again after formatting data/system/sd/etc... then I was able to do a sideload with adb :fingers-crossed:

Scared myself for a while.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] Carlos:
I got my car kit done a few weeks ago, but still haven't found the time to put together an article on it. Here are the photos I took, though, feel free to ask questions if you like.

This project is not trivial and took a lot of time. It could be easier if you're willing to settle for more simplicity, like only getting sound out. I wanted to have sound, serial, power, the works. It requires the ability to solder small connectors and skill with a Dremel (high speed rotary tool). Basically I took one of the charging adapters apart to get the connector, and duplicated the mounting plate for it inside the cradle using a CD-ROM case cover. Some of the fitment is pretty tight, so you have to have a steady hand with the Dremel. The mount you see on the rear of the cradle is a leftover from a Nokia kit I believe. It is a standard car cell mount which can be purchased in many forms from many sources. There are also flexible pole mounts and others available.

The end result is that I can drop the XDA into the cradle in the car and it is charged, the Pharos GPS is connected (via the PS/2 connector you see), and stereo output is provided via the three-conductor jack on the back of the cradle. I am using the built-in microphone, after some experimentation with other options. It appears the XDA needs a high level microphone input, a straight microphone does not work. This sounds fine to most callers, but it means that I can't put the device into "car" mode which means you also get sound from the speaker on the device.

Hmmm, unfortunately, I can't find the pic I shot of it actually mounted in the car, so I'll shoot that tomorrow and post it.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] roko:
Respect, very well done! :D
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] Peter Poelman:
Very well done indeed.

Just a tiny remark: Do note that the mounting screws for the attachment bracket will prevent you from using the extended battery that clips onto the back of the device... Glue might have been better.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] Carlos:
Thanks for the compliments.

I agree that is a concern if using an extended battery. Flat head screws would work also. I will never use an extended battery, so I didn't bother. Glue would have been ineffective though because the mounting system isn't flat on the surface where it attaches to the cradle; it has lots of air space there, it is not solid.

Another possiblity is to attach the mount on the bottom of the cradle. I didn't do that because I'm putting it in a minivan with a high dash, and this arrangement proved to provide perfect positioning.

Here's are the photos of the kit in the car:
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] MADmanFREE:
Carlos,

Before you know it you'll be an "XDA-Devoloper #carlos"

I guessing that somewhere on this sight there will be a more glorified copy of your report before long...

For the audio out, etc...

Is there a way of connecting this to the car stereo directly?

I remember a guy that had this with his nokia 7210 (matrix type). Again, nokia seem to do everything first (ish...).

When in his car and he received a phone call, it came all throught the speakers etc. funky!!!

MmF :roll:
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] Carlos:
Oh yeah, I had that with my Nokia 8200. Also had a "car" kit for it on my motorcycle, so I could talk on the phone in the helmet as well as the passenger and other bikes (if similarly equipped). It cuts off the radio automatically. I still have the rest of the system on the bike, but now have to build a holder and interface for the XDA. I have always has car kits that are system integrated, but the XDA is the first where I had to start from scratch.

Here's a photo of the bike setup for the Nokia:

Anyway, piping the sound through the car system can be done in many different ways. If you have a system with seperate amplifiers, you can buy a simple mixer to insert the sound before the amps. Or, many head units these days (like the CD-MP3 player on my bike) have front-panel 3.5mm inputs. I used to have an Eclipse CD changer/controller that automatically switched over to a back panel auxiliary connection when it detected input on that connection. Of course, there are the rudimentary cassette adapters and the RF injectors like the Radio Shack iRock which put the sound on an FM frequency.

There are a lot of solutions, just depends on your current setup and desired budget.
