I use SlingBox from SlingMedia, works great and I get all extended channels, no monthly fee. I can even add my Dish Network if I wanted to but local channels and extended channels is enough for me, and you don't have to put the box in the channel you want to watch like you do with Dish box, the slingbox has a tuner of it's own... :)

Removing Verizon Internet Setting

Is it possible to permanently remove the verizon internet setting? If i delete them they come right back after 2 seconds. I got T-Mobile.
[Imagio ROM Development] m4f1050:
search for "guardian" with a registry editor, delete all instances. (it should have CM_GUARDIAN or CMGUARDIAN on the name.)

restart phone

remove verizon

install your choice

restart phone

your choice should be in place.

Hi all,

Im looking for a inexpensive but good quality pouch for my Hero i don't want any of the edges sticking out or maybe even none of the phone out at all but i dont want it to be bulky.

What are you guys using ?

Cheers James
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] Stea1thmode:
IMO you cant go wrong the the Flexishield, buy one you wont regret it! I've seen cheaper alternativers around which I'm sure will meet ur needs but I'm a sucker for branding.

Regards
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] Branwen:
+1 for flexishield.

Its solid, so you don't feel the bulk when it moves around, unlike a silicon one.

And really not that thick at all

Although when I read your stuff you might think this is better:

http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-HTC-Hero-T-...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item2a0131c1e3

Quality is nice (got one with some loose stitchings, but seller sent me a new one right away), and they have a nice soft touch to them. Remind me a bit of the pouch you got with the HTC Touch. I guess I just like neoprene cases and pouches :D. And they're cheap hehe

Obviously the one I got has the Hero stick out just a little bit (check first link). For me no problem, only easier to get it out etc. Dimensions are very nice, it's a tight fit as it should be. I guess (but obviously don't know for sure) the second link will cover the whole Hero. But not on the sides there looking at the picture eh.

get an old pair of jeans that you dont wear or any material for that matter, cut some of the material out and take it to an alterations shop, if your nice enough they might do it for nothing :) im doing that but with some left over brown italian leather left over from the alterations from my mams sofa :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] justpyro:
I've never had a shield for the hero (I don't own it (yet)), but my friends have shields for their iPods, iPhones, g1s and g2s. These things are super quality, incredibly tough (to scratches, gouges, nicks, etc). We've tried metal nails and keys to scratch them, and never hurt them.

My friend's g2 cover peeled off on him - through no fault of his own - and zagg sent him a new one free.

I personally never got one for my Vogue because they do add a sort of friction to the screen, and I like a nice slick surface for my touch interface. To me it seems like umm... kind of a rubbery feel... it's not rough or anything, but it can grab your finger a bit more. And WinMo requires a heavier touch to pick up contact than the g1/2 and iPhone.

That's the only real gripe I have about it, and why I don't have one on my Vogue.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] dying4004:
this is really aweful not to find a really good looking slip case for hero. iphones got so many nice cases. why case manufacturers dont make good cases for other phones than iphone? weird
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] RaptorRVL:
Well, apparantly there is a bigger market for the iPhone. For users and perhaps a bigger single market share.

Anyway, when I search for Hero casings, pouches etc I do find quite some stuff on e-bay from China. But I agree, for some devices there is a lot more out there.

Earlier in this topic I've posted a link to a neoprene pouch I bought from ebay. Stitchings came loose again. So after I picked up the thread and needle I got it fixed (permanently, stitchings were only for looks, not to keep everything together). So apart from that it's good quality. But I guess 'you get what you pay' may apply in some cases! :D

My two purchases of this week

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130332799125&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330374119875&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

Really happy with the case as normally I hate them. Whether it is the official flexishield you get off mobile fun or not I don't know because it does have a cut out for the volume buttons, but other than that it's exactly the same.

And the screen cover was really easy to apply so thankfully did it first time and have another spare.

[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] RaptorRVL:
First took 1.5 week. But another took 3 weeks. It kinda depends when ordering something from Hong Kong. I always plan a month ahead :D

But small stuff like a pouch arrives quite fast.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] unknown_owner:
Got the Eddie Bauer case from Best Buy. hate it. I can barely feel a vibration when it's attached to my hip. Also too roomy for the phone; it moves around a lot in the case.

So I went here and ordered these 3 leather cases all for $25 shipped. That was the best deal I have seen, even better than ebay.

Case 1

Case 2

Case 3

Out of the 3, case 1 was the one I liked. Hero fit like a glove, but not too tight, just nice and snug. The sides of the case are that elastic material and it phone sits right up into it. Only drawback is the phone is not really protected on the sides because the elastic is there and not leather. Also the case is small in length than the others, doesn't seem so bulky (I liked this). The belt clip is the narrowest of the 3 cases. Also the inside has that nice leather feel, won't scratch the screen.

Case 2 was my backup case now. It's really nice. Longer than case 1 but the Hero fits snug along the back and front. Does have leather on the sides. But because of the length being longer than case 1, there is space on the sides when the phone is in the case. Shaking it really hard, and I mean hard, you can get the Hero to move slightly. The back has a wider belt clip and also belt loops. Didn't like that you can see the white stitching all over the case.

Case 3 I didn't like at all. It was like the Eddie Bauer case all over again. Hero moves around a lot in. It's like you can give your phone the shaken baby syndrome with the way it moves around in it. The belt clip is in between case 1 and case 2. Funny thing, this is the case seen all over ebay. Happy I didn't get any of them.

Hope this helps someone. Now I have to go sell the 2 cases I don't like for $25 together on ebay. :hee:

[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] sambartle:
I have the official HTC Hero pouch: http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=187366

And also the Krusell Luna (Large) black Leather: http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/krusell-luna-pouch-large-black-p18930.htm

Both are excellent.. The Krusell is the nicer case but is slightly too wide (the phone can slip out if you hold it upside down), where the HTC case isnt as nice but is a perfect fit.

I'd reccomend the Krusell if the very slight oversize problem doesnt bother you (i keep mine the right way up in my pocket so its no problem)

(I'll upload some pics of a hero in each one later on when I get home if anyones interested.)

This is what i bought yesterday from a shop downstairs and i'm very happy with it

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=258384&stc=1&d=1261197108

this is what i bought a month ago for more heavy duty protection, although i've had to replace the screen protector once because the plastic moulding on the sides which holds the phone in place presses abit hard and makes bubbles along the edge of the screen protector and subsequently got some dust between the screen and screen protector so i'm not sure whether i'll use it again.

[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] Huckleberry58:
yup, one and the same. although i'm not quite sure why it doesn't have a hole cut out for the volume control and it looks like if you try to cut one out yourself it will probably create a tear where the front/back molds attach.

[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] inforce:
I got a Krusell case which is POS. It bulges around the chin at the front and you can't always get to the top of the screen to swipe down for notifications.

After that I got a flexishield silcon gel case like this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FLEXISHIELD-G...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item3efb8e4036 which is great, but doesn't protect the screen.

Next came a flip case http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230398710330&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT which is really nice, except it doesn't have a belt clip and also after a couple of months the plastic around the volume buttons got broken.

So I decided to experiment :)

I got the flip case and removed the plastic part, glued on with epoxy a belt clip from an old Krusell case, glued on the gel case in place of the plastic one and now have an excellent case that is soft on my Hero and still protects the screen and can use all the Krusell multidapt clips.

Sorry should of said that I already have a screen protector fitted, it was the first thing I did to my Hero out of the box.

I am one of those people who carry around their phones on their belts all the time. Don't seem to have enough pockets to put stuff in :)

My partner who also has a Hero was worried that she may break the screen when carrying the phone around inside her bag or pockets, so that is why I came up with the hybrid solution.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] heyodee:
Hehehe, thats my bro's method as well. Since you have lots of other stuffs in your pocket, clearly reserving one pocket or your phone is impossible. However, I really do like your invention.

im using cyans recovery 1.4 and when you come to the boot screen for it, theres an option for wiping memory. ive had to wipe whenever switching from one rom to the next.

if your using cyanogenmod v1.4 its alt+w to wipe clean.. then wipe your ext with alt+f as well
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PS4AndroidHacker:
Problems with new ROM's huh?

Well...it could also possibly be your micro SD card,in which I found out was my problem about a week ago. I found Paragon Partition Manager on the internet.The free version called Partition Manager 9.0 Special Edition. Anyways...used Partition Manager to delete my old FAT32,EXT3,and Linux-Swap partitions and reformatted the entire micro SD then created new EXT3 and Linux-Swap partitions on my SD. Just thought this may be a solution to your problem. Good luck!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PlatinumMOTO:
I'm not sure alt+f wipes your ext. there are commands you have to type.

to completely wipe your ext2 and ext3 you have to type:

mount /system/

rm -rf /system/sd/

or at least that's what I always used until I upgraded to ext3.

Alright I'm finally going to throw a post up, go ahead and get all your "use search" "it's on search" "it was in a thread" out of the way now, cause I've gone through 76 thread pages of reading and searches and I can't find an answer that works.

I am continually getting the ERROR 262 in RUU everytime I attempt to use it to flash.

- I am running Vista 64bit (not sure if that is the problem or not)

- Using WMDC 6.1

- I have uninstalled and reinstalled WMDC 6.1 a total of 7 times

- I have used every single USB port on my computer.

- I have restarted a total of 15 times, both the computer and hard resets of the phone.

- I have tried both the Unlocker (I'm not sure if I have to unlock a second time or not after my WM 6.1 update) and just the ROM Update.

- I have tried doing the forced bootloader mode (Power+Camera+Reset) and simply allowing the program to do it on it's own.

Everytime it drops into Bootloader (3 color) mode, it drops Activesync and then obviously errors out because of lost connection. I've tried simply running the program and never unplugging the USB cable, I've also tried unplugging the USB cable when the DOSprompt part of the batch tells me to. Everything I've read says to do this, but I don't remember doing this for the 6.1 WM Update. It also doesn't make sense.... if you unplug the device, it's going to drop activesync everytime....

I've just updated every program, reinstalled everything more then 5 times, done countless resets, tried every USB plug and nothing is working. Hopefully this is something easy I'm just overlooking -- or something easy like "It doesn't work with Vista 64" so I can at least get an answer.

Again, I apologize if this was answered somewhere previously. I genuinely tried for 3 hours using search, on and off XDA, so that I wouldn't have to post a question thread but never found a "fix" that worked.

Thanks in advance.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] gt!:
Try another computer. It does work with Vista 64 (I've done it many times), but there's no point in beating your head against the wall for this. There are so many things that it could be you might as well try another computer so that you at least now it is the computer and not your Vogue.

You phone is not unlocked and you are trying to flash a custom ROM.

Be it locked or unlocked is beside the point. As I stated before, I unlocked it once for the WM 6.1 upgrade and being as I wasn't sure if I had to do it again, I attempted to do it again.

Regardless of if it's trying to flash the ROM, or use the Unlocker, the same thing always happens. Windows Mobile Device Center (ActiveSync) drops connection once the phone goes to the Bootloader (3 color screen), and it errors out 262 (Connection Lost).

I have attempted to give as much information as possible so I can get input on if I'm missing a step or if it's simple bugging out. I will try what gt! suggested and attempt this on a different computer. However, from the information I've given can anyone confirm that I'm at least doing the correct steps -- there's just some gremlin popping up keeping me from completing it?
