And you're using the HTC contacts list in TouchFlo? Because whenever I choose one of those views (All/Contacts/SIM), the choice is always retained whenever I exit and return to the contacts. What carrier version of the phone do you have, and what ROM? (stock? cooked?)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rossle12:
It's a Cooked one, but nevermind that.

My main problem is the windows media player :confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Understood, I just hadn't yet had the chance to go digging for that solution, I knew it was around here somewhere.

[Nexus One Accessories] Namuna:
Recently received the Phantom Skinz Full Body set and have gone through installation.

Here's the breakdown:

The Pros:

- The Screen Skin looks good and feels good. The extra drag vs. the stock glass is slight and the overall clarity is very good (doesn't have any noticeable detraction from the crisp, contrasty screen).

- The main screen skin and front overlays were fairly easy to apply and once dried have a very nice unobtrusive look

- Comes with 2 sets of skins

The Cons:

- included directions are WAY OFF from the install video on their site. Soaking times, how long to let it sit and dry, etc...

- Edge bubbling on every corner for the back overlays. Directions say to "cup the corner with palms and hold 30 seconds", but I've done it over and over again and they keep popping off after a short while

- A WHOLE LOT of wet work involved in applying these skins. Application involves soaking the skin in water first, then (as instructed) with your fingers fully wet, take the wet skin and put it wet onto the phone and then use the included credit card shaped "squeegy" to push out the extra water. Not so much a big deal for the screen skin, but getting that much water around and near the audio/mic/power and such ports while putting on the body skins is asking for trouble.

Final Thoughts

I imagine in some small (heck, maybe in large) part, the corner bubbling issue is due to me not applying the skin properly. But I'm not some clueless granny that doesn't know the difference between a mouse and a blackberry and the included instructions are vague in important places and almost completely different than the video instructions shown at their website (for example; The included instructions say to use warm water WITH SOAP)

Bottom line: Stick with just the screen skin, skip the full body.
[Nexus One Accessories] uansari1:
The online video instructions say to use soap as well. IIRC, she said that at their facility, they use one drop of Johnson's baby shampoo per 32 oz of water.

I would avoid Phantom Skinz altogether. Here's the review I posted about my experience with one of them on my Moto Droid in the skins topic.

Phantom Skinz

I got a PS for my Moto Droid because I didn't want something as grippy as the Zagg. PS had great reviews and came with 2 full sets for the price of 1 zagg with 33% off on top of that ($16.50 in the end). The first installation of the screen got some dust and fuzz under it since I was OCD about getting it perfect, so I emailed them and they sent me a replacement for free no questions asked. I know it did come with two sets of protectors but I wanted to keep one as a backup still. Second installation was perfect. No dirt, dust, fuzz or finger prints. Screen was perfectly smooth (no orange peel) and the touch felt almost the same as the glass. Put the rest of the body on without a problem as well with just a few bubbles in some of the tougher spots. I was very impressed, but now a month later I am not so much. After daily use taking my phone in and out of my pocket (sometimes shared with keys) the skin is filled with knicks and wrinkles. While the film may not technically scratch, it is vulnerable to indentations and air bubbles forming which do not "self heal". Instead of scratching, it seems like the skin stretches in place, resulting in a wrinkle/groove with little marks that look like air bubbles underneath. Not only does it make the screen look dirty, but you feel them while using the touch screen. As I write this, I just dug my finger nail into the screen and tried to scratch it, leaving another permanent groove. Needless to say, I will be taking off the PS and throwing it in the trash. The rest of the body has surprisingly stayed pretty clean of wrinkles, so it may have something to do with its application on glass. I will put some pictures up when I get the chance this evening. Overall, I would not recommend PhantomSkinz. It looked and felt great for a couple weeks, but now every day I am finding more and more knicks and wrinkles and that is just unacceptable compared to others. This skin is NOT scratch proof like other comparable skins on the market! However, I will commend their customer service for being very helpful and quick to reply.

And here a pictures of what it looks like:

h ttp://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5415251&postcount=44

(remove the space after the h, I can't post links yet)

Bottom line here as that they are smoother than other brands but scratch pretty easily. You should check back in on this topic in a month or two and see if your opinion has changed.
[Nexus One Accessories] pongalong:
I applied the full body skin about a week ago. There's definitely a lot of water involved but most of the danger can be avoided with some caution. I used Q-tips to do a lot of the credit card work around the edges so that it soaked up the water it pushed out.

A good trick for the corners is to use some sealant/piping tape to hold them down. This is a lot better than using your hand for 30 seconds, and you can leave it there for as long as you want (I left the tape on mine for 2 days since I wasn't going anywhere that I needed to show off my phone, I figured why not? Now my corners are perfect).

So far I like PhantomSkinz because it wraps the corners a little better than the other skins. Bodyguardz is a little better in clarity and material. InvisibleShield has too much of the orange peel effect. Haven't had a chance to try BestSkinsEver.

As for detonation's review, it's too early for me to tell if I'll have the same problems, but I agree that the material doesn't seem on par with InvisibleShield or BodyGuardz. But since I still used the carrying case and treat my phone with much care even with the skin on, I don't think it'll be too much of a problem.
[Nexus One Accessories] boxmander:
I recently got the phantom skinz full body set, after I read the instructions I thought that there was no way I was applying wet/soapy film to my N1, it just doesn't make any sense. Water/soap plus electronics? Its a recipe for disaster, besides the fact that I suck at arts and crafts type stuff just like this. I would imagine I would get water somewhere inside the device, and knowing me it would reach the many water detectors in the phone. It doesn't seem worth it, so I applied just the screen part sans water/soap, and needless to say it sucked big time, even when I got all the bubbles out.. it had a terrible gray haze on parts of the screen it was bad (maybe due to not using the water/soap method). Can any one suggest just a simple screen protector that doesn't' require to dunk your device in water?
[Nexus One Accessories] uansari1:
Dude... you BARELY have to use any water to get the screen to turn out right. Sorry you wasted your PS... but ask them for a replacement, and mail it to me! I do this **** with my eyes closed. It's really not rocket science, and you don't have to "dunk" your phone in water.
[Nexus One Accessories] typ_ex:
you didnt follow the instructions and it didnt work well for you? gtfo
[Nexus One Accessories] pongalong:
Try clairivue or martin fields. Just do a google search since I can't post links yet.
[Nexus One Accessories] MontAlbert:
LOL! i agree. i have had no issues at all with my phantomskinz- both on the magic and now my nexus- i'll admit i do suck at installing them but what i do is get a bowl o water, put a few drops of baby shampoo in swich it around a bit, then dunk the piece in there- hold it over bowl until excess is removed then you can put it on device- the soap/water allows you to move it into position easily and helps squeegee the bubbles....

i wouldnt blame a product because you didnt follow their instructions how to install it...
[Nexus One Accessories] detonation:
I actually prefer the bowl of soapy water to the sprays that come with other skins. Submerging it ensures the entire skin is lubed up, and the small amounts of drips on the device is harmless. Just let it dry out overnight before turning it on.
[Nexus One Accessories] archboy69:
I think Martins is completely over priced. I tried BSE and Phantom and all works great. Once dried it is practically invisible with only the slightest orange peel effect. I'm pretty OCD and it is minimal enough that it doesn't bother me. What does bother is that both of the screen protectors are slightly shorter than the screen.

As for applying the phantom and drowning in water as people are saying I don't do that. I've put on enough of these to know you only need a slight amount. I use a spray and just mist the backing so that it is enough to be able to adjust when putting on but not dripping with water. I use a cloth to absorb the water on the edges as I push the bubbles/excess water out. Fairly easy process. It just takes a slow hand and patience.
[Nexus One Accessories] Paul22000:
Ok I have to ask: what is sealant / piping tape? And where do you buy that? Home Depot? Bed, Bath and Beyond?
[Nexus One Accessories] pongalong:
Some might know it as teflon tape, thread seal tape or plumbers tape. It's a thin white non-adhesive tape that you use on pipes/hoses to make connections water tight. Home Depot would have it or any hardware store - it's pretty common. Just cut a few good length pieces and wrap your phone up like a mummy on the difficult spots. It works well because it's stretchy, conforms to shape and naturally adheres to the phone skin.
[Nexus One Accessories] uansari1:
...and it's non-stick!
[Nexus One Accessories] boxmander:
Like I mentioned before, my application didn't work well cause I didn't follow the instructions. And I wasn't hating on PS, get a grip. Besides after some people posted about this topic I might give it another go, PS gave me two for one so I can redo it. Why are you here? Perhaps you should try posting things that are more constructive.
[Nexus One Accessories] Paul22000:
Interesting. I'll definitely get some. Thanks for the tip.

Hmm... I'm going to go to Home Depot to buy some kind of special tape I've never heard of to wrap up my phone like a mummy in order to prevent the corners from lifting on my phone's skin protector. Phone enthusiast or what? :D
[Nexus One Accessories] APrinceAmongMen:
Phantom does have the best skins by far...

The trick to installation to make it perfect:

Use the Johnson's/water mix as they advised.

Ignore all of their other directions.

Peel off the piece you want to apply. Dryly.

Dip your fingers in the water and apply it to the skin using your fingers.

Once both sides of the skin are wet, use your fingers as a squeegee to pull off any excess water.

Apply the skin to your phone. Keep the skin sitting on your phone in it's original shape.

Use your fingers, not the applicator card, to squeegee out the air bubbles. You don't need to apply very much pressure at all. The bubbles move around extremely easily.

Now, let the skin dry for about 2 minutes. Once you notice the skin starting to cling to the phone a little harder, grab the ends that you need to wrap around the phone and stretch them into place. This is the key step. Stretching it makes it stick so much better, the corners align perfectly with the phone when you do this, and all the gaps left between the skin pieces when you don't stretch it are gone. The skin has to be stretched to fit the phone, otherwise the pieces will all be a little to small and the corners will blow.

Repeat with the other pieces.

Enjoy your sexily phantom skinned N1. :)

anyone with pics of this case ?
[Nexus One Accessories] nzxtneo:
I just wanted to comment about Phantom Skinz because I have had a really good experience with them and I am going to get another set from them as soon as they release it for the HD2!

I got Phantom Skinz for a Nano about a year ago and it has been awesome! I bought the PS retail (they have a location in my area) so I only got one set, but I did it myself with no problems. I had to take it off for a warranty replacement on the Nano and I put the same skin back on the new Nano and it looks just as good as it did on the first application. It's awesome that it can be taken off and put back on again using only water.

I got GA for my G1, but it is the worst product ever. I had it professionally installed at a Ghost Armor location because I wanted it to be perfect for my baby. But it didn't even last a month before it started peeling! GA can only be applied once with a special solution (thats what the GA salespeople told me) and it can't be fixed with water like Phantom Skinz. Phantom Skinz has never actually peeled like the GA did, but at least I could fix PS with water if I needed to!

I literally had the full body GA skin replaced 4 times in the course of a year because it peeled so bad and I am not just talking the corners! I did everything they told me to; keep the phone in a case so it doesnt rub in your pocket, keep any liquid of the phone (durr), don't leave the skin in prolonged sunlight, blah bla blah.

It was $35 for the original GA skin and installation and then they charged me $10 labor for the "free warranty replacement" every time I had the skin redone. Oh, and they changed the GA product for my phone 3 times out of the 4 I got it replaced and the changes never fixed any of the problems I had with the skin. GA also yellowed really bad and actually got progressively worse over the course of their " improved product revisions". The last time I had the G1 wrapped the skin was a pretty moderate yellow in about a week...

The salespeople sucked me in every time with leading me to believe the GA skin for the G1 was revised and the problems were fixed. I spent way too much money on their crappy ass product!

Ghost Armor is an awful product! Please just stay the hell away from them!:mad:
[Nexus One Accessories] rydr1:
There is no need to submerge anything in any fluid. I have installed clear skins on many devices by using soapy water. I dont spray it on the phone, I spray a small mist on the protector before applying. Trust me there is not enough water to damage anything because as i push out the bubble I wipe the water.

If you are concerned about it then remove the battery and wait a day like the other people have suggested. once the process is complete the skin will need to settle for a few days before it looks good.

I used some spray that came with a skin before and I did not like it compared to the soapy water MIST.

I also do not use the skin on touch screens because my finger drags on it compared to other screen protectors that are designed to protect the screen.
[Hero CDMA General] slybitz:
I've done a lot of reading from a lot of scattered posts and some were contradicting so I just wanted to clarify. I'm about to root my Hero and install a new ROM and I have two quick questions before I do so:

1) After I root the phone, and make a backup, do I need to do anything else before I install the ROM? I.e., do I need to wipe my phone before the ROM install? I will be installing Fresh 1.1 if that makes a difference. If I need to wipe everything how do I do this?

2) I bough the app "MyBackup Pro" from the app store and have backed up everything on my phone. After I install the new ROM (Fresh 1.1), will I be able to use this app to restore my phone settings (i.e., data, apps, home settings, contacts, sms, etc...)?

Thanks for your help!
[Hero CDMA General] wtphoto:
as far as wiping your phone, no with fresh 1.1 over stock you will not have to.

I have never used that app I just make sure to do a nandroid any time I change anything significant.
[Hero CDMA General] slybitz:
cool, thank you.

i'm assuming that I'll be ok in terms of restoring my apps, data, etc... with this app but I just want to be certain. so if anyone knows I would greatly appreciate it. i can't imagine i would run into problems but i just want to be sure.
[Hero CDMA General] Is_907:
I would make a nandroid backup, too, just to be safe. It'll only take you a couple of minutes.
[Hero CDMA General] slybitz:
i'll definitely do that. thanks.

one last question: i have a "with google" phone and I'm trying to root it via the fresh pre-kitchen app. my firmware version is 1.5. when i go in to root the phone and i select "i have a 'with google' phone" it prompts me saying that it will flash RA 1.2.3 instead of 1.5.2. Is this ok? or should i un-check the "i have a 'with google' phone" option with the firmware that i have?
[Hero CDMA General] wtphoto:
I have a branded phone as well and I have not had any problems rooting without checking that box. You can try it.
[Hero CDMA General] slybitz:
i'll give it a try. thank you for your quick responses/help!
[Hero CDMA General] Is_907:
I manually rooted my Sprint Hero and had to use RA 1.2.3 and then updated it to 1.5.2 later.

I think that's the only issue. It won't hurt you to install RA 1.2.3 as you can always update it manually (easily) later on.
[HD2 General] Tamashii:
Is there any way to have it?

Hi,

I'm a Nexus One user, i'm tying APNDroid to lower my data traffic and I have a problem.

When switching to ON, internet does not up (but apn entries corrected to their normal values). When i reset the phone (or enter in flight mode and back to normal) internet works well.

I've tried also the widget Toggle Data with the same results.

Anyone with the same problem? Any possible solution?

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus One General] bobtentpeg:
APNDriod works just fine here

It does note, however, that latent connections may not clear. So, if they never clear (so you reboot), you cant connect after toggling on
[Nexus One General] skyline3:
Dear All,

I've the similar experience. I'm using the 3G network in the street. When I back to home, I'll switch-off the 3G network that using the APNdroid and then switch on the Wifi. When I go out, I'll switch-off the Wifi and then open the 3G network again, but it's not work, until I restart the phone again. Is it the Wifi already allocate the resources that cannot release? or I need to make some changes in the phone setting?

Thanks a lot! :-D

I have seen a few people report the same thing - maybe report it to the developer? I don't really use mobile data at the moment, so it does not affect me.

I had the same problem.. and I notice no need to restart or reboot.

Just switch on the wifi and off again and while the APNDroid is on then the connection should be back on.

even if I don't use apndroid, just going outside wlan area doesn't brings me 3g back (any connection), that's really bad :(

this morning switching on apndroid no connection came back within 20 min. After i switched flight mode it worked immediately.

Do all n1 users having this issue?
[Nexus One General] scote:
Dont use this myself, but I wonder if the developer could add an optional toggle in/out of flight mode to fix this. that should terminate any existing connections too.

Dunno why really, but i dont have the issue, i have the same phone provider like LokoYaw and i dont have the problem.

[Nexus One General] elio:
The wifi trick (turning it on/off) works well with me.
[Nexus One General] XZQ't:
is this a software problem or N1 problem ?

before using APNDroid I manually edit APN to turn edge on/off and sometime experienced the same problem. Edge symbol just doesn't apprear, have to restart N1.

Anyway, thanks for the tip. I'll try change mode/turn wifi on-off to see what works for me.
[Nexus One General] grainysand:
I'm here to report that I suffer from the exact same problem, and have been mistaking it all day as the fault of my carrier's EDGE.

But toggling wi-fi on/off does work. Hooray.

Well, it WAS working fine, untill the update. Now it doesnt any more :S
[Nexus One General] grainysand:
The wifi trick sometimes works for me--it seems that if the phone doesn't detect any wifi in the area, then it doesn't work. Hit and miss. :/ And I really need the app, too, since like some of you I don't have an unlimited data plan.
[Nexus One General] gandalf2000:
Got the same issue here in Italy with TIM operator.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Dunno if you realise or not, but using APNDroid for this purpose is kinda pointless, Android shuts down the mobile data connection when it connects to a WLAN.
[Nexus One General] czm:
I use it for the same purpose because unless you set wifi to never sleep it will fail over to mobile data for background sync etc - or at least that is how I understood it. I don't want to leave wifi on all the time without sleeping to preserve the battery
