I love the Barely There but all it really offers is back and side protection from scratches. I'd wager you drop it and the Barely There won't do much to help.

Don't know if it was EU models that got them but HTC supplied a case in the box. It's a damn good case too. Wish they did a clear version.
[One (M8) Accessories] Stold:
Have you received your case? Is it possible to have a review or some pictures?

[One (M8) Accessories] JWhetstone02:
not my kinda night

I'm not sure who uses this case, but i just had an accident with this one.

Apparently my phone wasn't sitting correctly inside of it this one time (which I never take it out of the case) but when I went to press the volume button, i noticed it didnt do anything, when i went to press volume down it still didnt do anything. then when I went to press it again, i noticed on screen that my volume shot all the way up.

so in short, I took my phone out the case and noticed that the volume button rockers from the case actually pressed abnove the volume buttons on my phone and bent the case down trapping the volume buttons underneath. the case is now bent a slight bit resulting in them sticking between the phone and case :crying: :crying: :crying:

So after speaking with verizon, I wasn't the only one who purchased that exact case from them and had that issue.

so brand new htc one m8 comes in today.. and I think i'm going to invest in another case..just to not run into this again.

so a big thanks for all the great reviews on all different cases for this awesome phone from each of you!
[One (M8) Accessories] DLG187:
Ordered and returned the Slim Armour case.. was a bit to bulky for my liking.

An Incipio Feather is my replacement
[One (M8) Accessories] mark manning:
So i don't really what a case per say but I do want something that will help keep the metal scratch free with out adding any bulk. I came across this....

http://www.bodyguardz.com/htc-one-m...-skins-films.html?dir=asc&order=sort_priority

has anyone in here used it or know anyone that has used it. If so, what were their experiences with it?
[One (M8) Accessories] kennypow3rs:
I've had those on a few phones even tried them on the M8 they suck. I peeled it off with in a day. I also had a slick wrap that I peeled off too. If you want a nice case look up the supcase uniform beetle on amazon. Its the best 10 bucks I've spent adding minimal bulk.
[One (M8) Accessories] ekabon:

Yeah I returned it. Good protection but a bit bulky. Good grip on sides.
[One (M8) Accessories] YELLOW_STL_MACH:
I had a Dualtek case for my previous RAZR Maxx. Was a solid case but the corner bumpers picked up a TON of pocket lint and then fell out when I tried to clean them. (They popped out very easily.) Once they fell out I had giant openings at the corners of the case.
[One (M8) Accessories] nsx_23:
Thanks guys. Ended up picking up a slim armor and got a UAG on the way as well. Anyone here using a Speck grip on their M8? I had one on my M7 and it was great.
[One (M8) Accessories] Jr6278:
I have the clear and the black uag cases there awesome. They are slimmer and more protective than the slim armour

Any feedback on the Sedio Surface Case with kickstand?

Thanks.
[One (M8) Accessories] inmanster:
I have the UAG Maverick. Good fit and doesn't add too much bulk. I'm still able to easily slide the phone in and out of my blue jeans pocket at work.

The phone has fallen a couple of times from about 4' and the UAG or M8 show any signs of the impact.

I do industrial maintenance in a very hot humid and dirty environment, and am constantly leaning on equipment or laying under or climbing over it without any ill effects to the UAG or M8.

Now with all that said, has anyone found an athletic style armband style case that fits the M8 well?

I did a couple reviews for a few cases(techwayjunkies on youtube)...spread them around please :) Currently I'm rocking the amCase Bumper Case. I love it.
[One (M8) Accessories] scott500:
I got that case but honestly I didn't like it and returned it. I've allways used a surface case and holster combo from Sedio. When I got the M8 I picked up the kickstand OEM version at Best Buy but didn't like the look of it. The kickstand worked just fine but the whole look of the thing was off with the big silver kickstand.

I ended up ordering the combo from Sedio direct and it looks much better IMHO

How about a folio case

I'm looking at the AceAbove Leather Folio Case. Has anybody had any experience with this one? Being able to consolidate phone and wallet would help eliminate some of the daily gunk I carry around in my pocket, but I'm concerned with it just becoming too dang bulky.

In an audio interview with Jim Morrison - CEO and major shareholder of i-mate - from msmobiles.com 4 months ago, it was revealed that the company is looking into working with companies other than HTC - probably to do with increased competition with HTC in Europe.

According to newmobile.nl, it has been confirmed that i-mate WILL be ditching HTC:

HTC will continue to support its operator-branded products and OEM partners as a key priority. Within this continuation of support to OEM partners it must be emphasized that i-mate will stop all future activities with HTC within several weeks. They will end all activities around Windows Mobile products from HTC. Any information on future steps from i-mate concerning other models, platforms or manufacturers is not known at this stage.

And they also said that HTC is interested in the Symbian OS. Any one know anything about this?

Read their full article on http://www.newmobile.nl/eur/en/news.php?news_id=c1a4b9
[General Topics] ARZLEB:
the business is getting larger and larger, what is happening now is a pure fight or compatition on territories.

I-Mate is # 1 in the Arab region and middle east in their categorie. Nokia EMEA mentioned once that their compatition in this region is not with Sony Ericsson nor Motorola or any other brand but I-mate.

Each company is moving on a certain area and wants to secure it to reach a certain level of sales... tomorrow Nokia and Palm are also moving into this area with WM supported phones.
[General Topics] richardlai:
Is that just a saying or did you actually mean Nokia and Palm are moving into WM phones together? Cos I heard that Nokia is looking into Linux instead of Windows.
[General Topics] ARZLEB:
For Palm they aleardy have a working version to be released soon in the market based on WM5 its the Palm Treo 700.

Motorola has released the Q device based on Windows Mobile.

As for Nokia, in November at a DUBAI convention for the N-Series when a question addressed to the Vice President for Nokia Mobiles about a possible cooperation with Microsoft he didnt rule the idea that Nokia might have a device based on Windows Mobile. I doubt they might be really intrested into Linux while they are developing a similar or close OS such as the Symbian.
[General Topics] faria:
and the fact that HTC is gonna start selling to the public.that may be the reason i-mate is moving.
[General Topics] richardlai:
Yes, I did point this out in the first post. It's pretty unlucky for i-mate, though, as what they really do is just optimising the software for the HTC devices and then sell them under their own brand. Also, Jim Morrison - the founder of i-mate - was the guy who designed the very first xda!
[General Topics] rain:
As we concluded in a previous topic this is good for the market ... as of having a big competitor like i-mate selling other devices then HTC's .

I-mate has the advantage of customisation in my opinion...not sure about the market size of the two I-mate vs. HTC ( Qtek + Dopod + Operators)... HTC is not a big player in customisation (in my opinion they suck in this "region")

im afraid that is not quite rigth,check this out;

"Gaining unauthorised access to someone else's network is an offence and people have to take responsibility for their actions. Some people might argue that taking a joy-ride in someone else's car is not an offence either," he said.

Gaining unauthorised access to a computer is an offence covered by the Computer Misuse Act. In Straszkiewcz's case, he was prosecuted under the Communications Act and found guilty of dishonestly obtaining an electronic communications service.

"I guess, and it is a guess, that they couldn't prove he accessed the actual computer and that is why they used another legal avenue," said Mr Janes.

But whatever route the case took, the outcome proves that borrowing someone else's network is not as harmless as the hobbyist wi-fi user might think.

[General Questions and Answers] msafi:
First, thank you for VJDeviceLock. It really helps when you have a phone without a power button, such as the Mio A701.

I'd like to ask you if you know how to get the voice-mail notification to update without having to soft-reset the device?

My other question is: is it possible to activate MS Voice Command via Bluetooth?

Man, I'm so glad that you bought a Mio A701. Do you still have it and use it?
[General Questions and Answers] Nadavi:
1. i would like to know how to make this Voice mail notification dissapear.

2. at the moment it's not possible, in the next roms it will be i hope.

Nadavi.
[General Questions and Answers] msafi:
Nadavi,

1. Check your voice mail and then soft reset the device. This takes care of the notification for me. It seems as though the notification updates upon soft resets.

2. It's a software problem. There may be a quick fix to it.
[General Questions and Answers] vijay555:
Hi guys.

I do have a Mio A701, and it's now my "main" phone (don't worry though, My Magician and my Universal are still my main development environments). I've mentioned elsewhere, at first I wasn't particularly impressed by it, and hopefully I'll be posting a reviewette at some point, having seen a number of phones to compare it to now :roll:

At first, it shocked me how crap some of the system was, particularly the power button implementation. Too few hardware keys, and a ridiculous doubling up of the power key.

However, I wrote a new power app to replace the current crap one that takes 30 seconds to enable (and re-enabled the camera key [I've also started writing a new button remapper for it - AE Button Plus wasn't entirely happy]) and assigned it to that. However, now I also use VJDeviceLock, and it makes the system SO much better, and I'm actually enjoying it now. You can lock and power off simultaneously, and given the phone's ridiculous design flaw of switching on when the red key is pressed in your pocket, it (or similar) is essential!

Since then, I've started liking the phone... it's a little chunky, but not so much more then the magician, and I've put a lanyard on it now, I've been working with Martin Fields recently and they'll be releasing one of their excellent screen covers for it (review coming soon - and if you buy one, remember to say my name!) and so finally the system's coming together.

I'm working on some Voice Command stuff and bluetooth extension stuff, so right now, I know the system doesn't have the same HTC VC audio gateway "hooks". Frankly it's no great loss, given the bad way it was implemented in some Wm5 systems, but hopefully Mio will address that, otherwise I'll try to work on a bluetooth extension when I get some time.

I'm on o2, and they don't use the Voice Mail indicator so I didn't realise there was a bug. That sounds like a job for Mio as well...however, there may be one or two ways to help the system along. Does PhoneAlarm have the same problem?

Mio haven't done well on the rom updates so far, mine still randomly switches off, and the backlight still forgets its settings (hopefully fixable, I'm working on it). With TomTom, it still seems to think I'm doing a Tazmanian devil, spinning round and round when I'm stationary, but otherwise it works well. I used it for the first time, properly, today, and Mrs Vijay555 was suitably impressed...

I'll be writing a small GPS tool for it soon as well, to kickstart Ephemeris for use with TomTom...

All coming soon, I hope!

[General Questions and Answers] Robson:
vijay, nice to hear that you're using a mio as well. bought mine like last april (or was that may) and i've been very happy with it. do let me know if (and hopefully) when you start coming up with stuff for this ppc. perhaps you can put a small section on your website for mio updates and related stuff.

btw; have you tried the version 46 rom? i downloaded a copy but have no plans yet to upgrade. been reading some forums and apparently some guys had bad experiences with the upgrades...like the device crashing. i think i'll wait for the "official" release if there ever will be one. for now i'm pretty darn happy with my unit.

cheers

[General Questions and Answers] vijay555:
I tried the v46 rom.

My intense frustration with the installation resulted in my post here:

http://www.fourpages.co.uk/mioA701/viewtopic.php?p=1290#1290

basically - the installer makes no sign that it doesn't like your SD card when re-flashing, so I sat there for hours waiting for it to flash. No one ever said anywhere that when it does like your sd card, it'll give you a series of helpful status messages instead. So basically, if your sd card works, you'll know it. No one mentioned that on the boards :(

0.46 seems to be no different to me. However, I'd only had my system out of the box for a day or so before re-flashing, so I might have missed something, but I'm not too fond of the habit many manufacturers have of improving things so incrementally that you can't tell they've fixed anything. I'm still getting random power offs, backlight settings not retained on soft reset, some GPS randomness (but tolerable and understandable) etc. I'd probably wait until an official rom comes out. You can't blame us for trying it, but it's hardly worth the effort.

My website is being entirely redone, and it's such a painstaking task.. even I'm getting board of it. That's why I've not posted any releases for a while. Hopefully lots of new stuff coming soon.

There's a fledgling A701 forum on my website, with no posts in it, because then I was directed towards four pages...

Anyway, good device, but needs a lot of tweaking... but all in, a good buy.

[General Questions and Answers] msafi:
Vijay,

Sorry for bothering you this much, but I'm having a really ugly issue with my device. If I press the button on the Bluetooth headset, it will take me to the phone application and establish a audio gateway between the headset and the device. This feature in the headset was meant to activate voice-dialing, but you know, our phone doesn't have this feature. So, if I mistakenly press the headset button, which is very easy to press, it will 1) drain the battery 2) will disable the mic if I make a call without realizing that I pressed the button previously, so the other party can't hear my voice.

So my question more directly, can I tell my phone to completely ignore the voice-dial instructions from the Bluetooth headset?
[General Questions and Answers] msafi:
Okay, I found a solution to the problem.

Enter the Windows registry of your Mio A701 and rename the following registry path:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway

to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway.bak

Use at your own risk.
