Carbon Fiber

I've had this skin on for 3 weeks now. Coming from using

Invizsheildz for years.. this is definitely a step up. The fiber

patterns are made of the strong urethane material, and the

texture is great. It has a better grip now. I have and

extended battery and due to the strong material being

machine cut, there is a sharp edge along the bottom of the

face. But nothing dangerous. I got using the discount.

Well worth the Invizsheild I tore off the back to get it on.
[Vibrant Accessories] skater4690:
gotta say this thing is the best money spent besides buying the phone itself lol i didnt put it on the metal around the outside of the phone but its still looks great and it does give you a way better grip on the phone without being bulky like a case
[Vibrant Accessories] ritalin:
Just so everyone knows... you can pickup M3 Di Noc carbon fiber from just about any car shop or order yourself up a 1ft x 1ft. Auto shop might even give you some scraps big enough if you ask.

Take the sheet, and apply it to the back cover. Heat up the over-hanging edges with a hairdryer and pull then tight over the edge of the back plate. Keep working your way around the edges and you CAN get a nice clean fit with no wrinkles. Let it sit for a few hours and cool down. If no wrinkles have formed you can cut the excess off with a razor. If wrinkles have formed, heat it back up and stretch it over the edges and try again.

It took me a few tries the fist time, but the next phone I did when on with no issues.

Basically there is no reason to worry about the "copyrighted pattern" because you dont really NEED a pattern with this material, because of its elastic nature when heated.
[Vibrant Accessories] mastamoon:
Is the 3m Di Noc slippery or rubbery in feel? Was thinking about doing the same thing, but if its slick vinyl then I dont want it. If its textured and rubbery in feel, im down!
[Captivate General] chvybeatsford:
OK this is not a " I can't get mms thread"

I wanna change the way mms is played through messenger. If some one sends more than one pic in a mms its like a short video and I have to wait as it plays and can't ff. Tried handcent and its the same. So its proly android related.

If this can be changed please let me know how...
[Captivate General] chvybeatsford:
no one. At least let me know if its just a android thing.
[Captivate General] chvybeatsford:
Asking again .....
[Captivate General] MendedEagle:
Any phone I've ever had played mms messages like that. And all I'd have to do is just press a certain button to move the slideshow along.

Haven't gotten any mms like that yet with the captivate but I could guess that you can either press the menu button and go to next slide or something like that. Or try swiping the screen from right to left like reading a book or bottom to top like scrolling a website.

Edit: I know you want to change it but I don't think you can. That's just how mms works...I think. Maybe a dev can do something.
[Captivate General] chvybeatsford:
tried swiping and nothing ,tried menu no next slide.

Hello everyone,

I noticed that after I installed Ava's rooted Froyo ROM, I could no longer hear key clicks anymore when typing on the On-Screen Keyboard.

Does anyone know how to turn it back on?

Also, does the Rooted Stock ROM (from NetArchy) have this problem too?

I tried several ways to merge libgps.so into darkstone's V5 desire system.ext2 with no luck. After putting libgps.so into /system/lib and rebooting, the boot process stops at clk_set_rate() after the penguin logo shows up.

Can we use libgps.so with any Eclair builds? or it can only be used with froyo builds?

Note: The reason why I tried to do this was because, in my experience, Eclair builds were far more smoother, stable, and less memory hogging than all froyo builds. The difference is even more perceivable after installing 10~20 APKs.

Any advice/suggestion is highly appreciated!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] NemanjaLO:
Same problem here!!!

After typing "su" in terminal I get # but it doesn't ask me for superuser permission.

If I proceed with following command:

# mount -o remount,rw /system

# rm /system/lib/libgps.so

# cp /sdcard/libgps.so /system/lib​

after restart system won't boot.

NOTE: Using desire_v5
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bangsters:
tried it as well.... no luck also... hence i moved to froyo build. try cyanogen build.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] willgill:
... or try Matt's build. It has HTC Sense (which I prefer), and there really isn't anything NOT working for me. Maybe something isn't working but I haven't found it yet.

GPS, Bluetooth audio, camera, call audio, GUI speed, USB transfer (using automount), WiFi... it all works.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bangsters:
yup that's froyo build you're using. the problem is with eclair builds :)

i used matt's then switched to cyanogen. works without a hitch. smooth and everything works. camera and camcorder with flash, hspa/3g, etc.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dilta:
Thanks to bangsters, after switching to cynanogen, I can't believe my eyes! it's just amazing! The completeness of this port is close to official release. No more lag problem exists when opening pocketnow.com. This is simply marevelous! Highly recommended for anyone who didn't give it a try.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bangsters:
yup so smooth... i haven't been using winmo for like 2+ weeks lol...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Knowledge0417:
I just flashed the Miri rom and the in-call sound works, but unlike Dan's Froyo build, the GPS doesn't work. I replaced it with the new libgps.so file and it wouldn't even boot. The build is solid, but I just need GPS to work. Can I get a link to the Cyanogen HD2 build, and does it have Sense?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dilta:
I just followed the instruction on this page:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=739755&page=11

There's no built-in Sense UI, but it's rooted.

Please note that cyanogen is gonna create an userdata.img around 500MB on your SD Card, so make sure you have enough space.

BTW, the battery life seems to be improved compared to the froyo builds, despite the fact that cyanogen is based on froyo.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Knowledge0417:
Matt's build is Froyo with Sense? I want the sense UI but I want the call quality to work as well. Darkstones Claire build has good call audio and no SOD. Plus it has the HTC keyboard. Wish I could take bits and pieces of each build and make a stable one!
[Droid X Android Development] ZerkerEOD:
I just recently bought the psx4droid app and love it and see that you can use a wii remote to play with it. Since the wii remote uses Bluetooth to connect, and there are ps3 Bluetooth remotes I was wondering if I could hook up the ps3 remote to play my games? Any one know if this is possible?
[Droid X Android Development] SaurusX:
Even though there is the wiimote app, it would be nice to have the ps3 controller as another option. Especially considering the fact I have a ps3, but not a wii. :)
[Droid X Android Development] sp1kez:
Most people that are interested in things like roms are more likely to have ps3 than wii
[Droid X Android Development] ZerkerEOD:
I just don't want to use a weird controller for my games lol
[Droid X Android Development] Ryan Frawley:
The PS3 controller is much more complicated to pair with. I believe it also requires the phone to be rooted (in order to spoof the bluetooth ids).
[Droid X Android Development] ZerkerEOD:
Well the x is rooted lol so thats not a big deal I just can't find an app and the wii remote is annoying
[Droid X Android Development] letterboxdreams:
You can get a Wii Classic Controller Plus and plug it into the Wiimote. That's what I'm doing for now.
[Droid X Android Development] ZerkerEOD:
Please elaborate and about how much will it cost me?
[Droid X Android Development] LegionTHEFecalExcretion:
Its about 20-30 dollars. You just plug it into the bottom of the wiimote, thats what I use. You can use either classic controller pro(above) or the regular classic controller(below).
[Droid X Android Development] ZerkerEOD:
And it plugs straight into a regular wii remote? If so thanks to that info I'm my way to check it out.
[Droid X Android Development] letterboxdreams:
Yes it plugs into the Wiimote. It has all of the buttons you need and then some. You just need to map the buttons. Easy fix. Check your local GameStop for a used one.
[Vibrant General] Jon C:
Like most smartphone users: I live out of my calendar app.

When adding my schedule at work, I have to constantly select my Gmail calendar - for every new event - in order to sync to the cloud. The default is always the phone's 'My Calendar', which I never use.

It's not the end of the world, but when I get into the groove of adding events, I sometimes forget to change the setting.

Is there a way to delete that default, or is there a way to default new events to always be placed under your google account's calendar, or is this a bug / lack of foresight on Samsung's behalf?

I suppose the alternative is to do this all from Google's web app -- but I'd rather just be able to tap the info into the phone's default app.

Thanks.
[Vibrant General] AndroidZ28:
Several aspects of the phone act this way. I think Samsung still doesn't quite get the google-centric nature of most android users.
[EVO 4G General] Nismo-b15:
i havent updated yet...... but i have a feeling even in the official froyo update its gonna fall short...... fps hasent been fixed..... looks like the same interface just tweak slightly..... and slighly faster performance from apps............ i think CM6 is looking way better......

Opinions??
[EVO 4G General] gtkansan:
With the new wimax update, its world better. More than double the downlink. Getting near ten mbps in Atlanta.

Sent from my EVO
[EVO 4G General] bnrbranding:
Froyo runs 6-8x faster, if nothing else that seems like a pretty good upgrade right there.
[EVO 4G General] michaelvibe:
I don't think it was supposed to be a momentous upgrade

The devs are taking care of the rest!
[EVO 4G General] sprink0281:
Good to year cuz I could not get more than 7 mbps and that was only once late at night here in burbs of Chicago with full bars in certain areas usually where Im at I barely get signal at all. So Hopefully the range is better too. How about WiFi range, any better?
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
dont upgrade then its pretty simple 2.2 is blazing fast for me im happy
[EVO 4G General] oursoul:
Sorry what?

I call troll shenanigans.

[EVO 4G General] kamiller42:
Disappointment is what follows when you over excite yourself about something. The wait is more satisfying than the arrival. Think of it like a caffeine crash.
[EVO 4G General] docprego:
It's the already fantastic EVO, just better. What's there to be disappointed with?
[EVO 4G General] slowfncar:
the battery last longer? :D
[EVO 4G General] reverendrhino:
The new speed is great, but I also think this update ain't what it could of been. I guess I just expected more, but I'm coming from a Palm PRE so I'm good.
[EVO 4G General] DoctorComrade:
This still isn't the 'official' HTC update. Sure it was found on their website but who's to say they don't change anything before they roll it out next week?
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
Of course CM6 looks better! AOSP will always own Sense.

-------------
[EVO 4G General] EtherealRemnant:
I don't have any complaints with it really. I happen to like Sense, 40 on linpack... FPS fix is the only ***** I have.
[EVO 4G General] redrazr7791:
Why not wait until next weekend to start a thread like this? The real update hasn't even been massed released yet ;)
[EVO 4G General] mike.r.olson:
I'm using Ava, which is about the closest we're going to get to a rooted stock 2.2, and here are my thoughts, so far:

-Seems to be roughly the same battery life as Baked Snack.

-Camera seems to be able to take better pictures.

-I have noticed a noticeable, if slight, improvement in overall performance.

-MAJOR improvement in signal reception, latency, and throughput: WiFi, 3G, and 4G.

-Some apps that worked fine in Eclair are FC'ing in Froyo, especially ones that require root/SuperUser.

-I really really really miss the Netarchy FPS MOD. The animations aren't anywhere near as fluid without it.

-FB contacts are syncing properly.

Pretty sure that's it, for now. Gonna keep working and report back, as I'm sure many others will also.
[EVO 4G General] mike.r.olson:
And as I was reading that back, I realized there is already a stock rooted ROM. Whoops. *facepalm*
[EVO 4G General] chazglenn3:
Did you try installing the netarchy kernel that is for Froyo? There are two different one in the dev forum.
[EVO 4G General] champ052005:
Anyone else dissapointed that the new 2012 ferrari enzo can't fly? I havnt seen it nor test driven it yet, but Im dissapointed it can't fly.

Just playin but seriously test the update out before you open dissapointed threads
[EVO 4G General] Misty Blue:
Well I really am disappointed. I have 2 Nexus Ones in the house and I got my update first. The speed difference was more than noticeable. When I was updating my boyfriends phone later that night, it felt like I was using a sluggish G1. Then there were all the other goodies that came with it.

Since I updated the EVO, I haven't noticed anything really, unless you count the excess bloatware they added unnecessarily. I have to say, I am really not liking Sense at all.
[EVO 4G General] chazglenn3:
Sounds like you need Cyanogen Mod 6.0...
[EVO 4G General] kcasante:
All in due time

I can totally understand people feeling a little disappointed with Evo's froyo. But I say give it some time.

It's like when your favorite video game console company releases new hardware. The games always look like crap at first. But with enough time, developers get to understand the ins and out. Before long you're looking at amazing works of art.

I'm not overly excited at the HTC build of froyo. I've been running the CM6 nightly builds since they started to I'm almost use to froyo at this point. Where there is cause for excitement is the fact that an official evo build is being released. A build that has everything working. I can't wait to see what we get when the developers on this forum get their hands on it. The fps issue has already been overcome. Free tethering too. There are roms out there now that give you a lot of the sense UI shine without the resource hogging. Think of the build release as a new baseline for all the great new roms that are going to be coming out in the next few weeks. I can't wait!
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
You do realize that it is SIMPLE to remove the bloatware? I guess sprints not allowed to add their own apps? This really makes me question anything you said. I am completely satisfied and it was exactly what I was expecting hence no let down. I think people set the bar way too high sometimes.
[EVO 4G General] mike.r.olson:
I've heard it breaks the camera and/or camera flash.
[EVO 4G General] dougdascenzo:
Good god, the doom and gloom threads start already.
[EVO 4G General] trojandnc:
....if you had already flashed, you would not be asking the question.

The fps thing is overblown in my opinion. I just like having the latest software where everything works.

I'm good... til Gingerbread.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
Exactly how can you be disappointed when you haven't even flashed yet? Froyo 2.2 is almost twice as fast as 2.1 without even being overclocked. Sad..
[EVO 4G General] dmystic1:
There will be no drastic change if any at all.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
They are probably watching to see if it gets Rooted then patch it.
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
You haven't upgraded yet you formulated a personal opinion based on what you read? Either upgrade before you post again so that you can actually make valid arguments or don't upgrade and learn nothing. If you were expecting a windows 2000 to windows 7 type of leap in user interface then you were smoking crack.

HTC did what is was supposed to do and did a good job of it. They didn't try to be radical and make their current user base try to learn a new interface. Besides Froyo itself provides you with grids and squares and you say that its better? You are entitled to your own personal view but you sound like a CM6 fan who is trolling. I like both and I have actually tried both. You haven't yet you criticize it already.

Bah....
[EVO 4G General] sprink0281:
Mmmmm drugs are bad mmmmmkayyyyyy! Sorry I couldn't resist.......
[EVO 4G General] ForrelZ:
There are drastic changes, the fact that you go from 8 mflops to 34 or 40 in some instances and then have better camera/camcorder performance alone is huge. If only it had a 30fps fix this update would be the best thing to ever happen to the Evo but I guess you can't have you're cake and eat it too but all in all it's not bad, not bad at all!
[EVO 4G General] chazglenn3:
Give it a week or two and we shall eat cake! :D Rooted users at least...
[EVO 4G General] Rennat:
The update that HTC (un)released on their site isn't offical. Companies like HTC know how vital the communities like XDA are to their products. I'm pretty sure that this was to get out the basic update out for all the devs. That is why they took it down a few hours later. Besides all of you are comng from rooted/tricked out ROMs and now you are going back to the basic Sprint ROM. What do you expect.
[EVO 4G General] sk63:
Well there's that, and if they're really sneaky they will hope to see what hacks the devs do, like wifi-tether or root and be able to block them again. Though a week is pretty fast for the crack, much less a patch.
[EVO 4G General] Misty Blue:
Question anything I say, why? Who are you and why should I care? I was simply stating my opinion. I know that this update was not earth-shattering, but I did expect improvements. I bought the EVO because I needed a better network than T-Mobile. The trade-off has been having a better network with a slightly worse phone. I know eventually I'll install cm6, but for now, my disappointment stands.
[EVO 4G General] sprink0281:
I think HTC is all for the community that's why they released it give the weekend to work on the roms.. helps them sell more phones across different carriers...now Sprint that's a whole different story Im sure they were pissed that the software was released early and they probably *****ed until it was taken down and they might try to force them to patch any mods u devs found. Who knows, only my opinion.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
So why post in a public forum your opinion if you don't give a **** what people think? Did you really think you were going to be in the majority? You haven't even flashed the ROM. Funny you picked my post out of the 10 or so others. So a 6 to 7x increase in MFLOPS is not an improvement? So do you know how easy it is to remove any app on this phone? I guess your more concerned with eye candy than performance. Please..

PS I would be happy to tell you how to remove any app even after the phone is flashed.
[EVO 4G General] apollooff320:
I hate when ppl say froyo is 2 to 6 times faster. Yes in benchmarks but in real world the **** feels the same. Not all of us sits and look at the benchmark screen.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
I'm glad you can benchmark by feel so whats your score? I want to compare it to my real feel. Actually it "benchmarks" 6 to 7x. 2x is a joke.
[EVO 4G General] Nismo-b15:
Ok so i updated n my opinion is still pretty much the same..... i noticed its less laggt more snappy..... camera is pretty cool with a noticable apeed increase..... wifi range n browser speed is quicker.... new widgets r cool battery seems better..... im happy for now..... gnna wait for this to be rooted n then flash cm6.... gnna wait for the final releaae.... overall a nice update
[EVO 4G General] SteelH:
It is rooted.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
So see its a little better nothing earth shattering. Maybe someday HTC will update Sense but I wont be getting my hopes up.
[EVO 4G General] Nismo-b15:
Yeaaa.... i think im gnna root to cm6 once i get board in the nxt few weeks.... is there a a simple root to ava?
[EVO 4G General] TorxT3D:
im satisified. thank you sprint, htc, xda devs, and google.

this is the worlds super phone and it gets better and more interesting everyday.

of course the rom isnt going to meet expectations out of the gate, its going to have its quirks, but thats what the devs are here for, to fix those little nuiances.
[EVO 4G General] wuclan48:
Root is root. Doesn't make a difference which rom you use.
[EVO 4G General] scarface7174:
As has been said before this is the evo's STOCK ROM update. How many users here are still on the original stock rom? Probably not too many as most of us are using upgraded dev roms. If you really want to make the comparison...compare the new stock rom to the rom that came originally on the evo and maybe you'll see the difference. I equate what most people are saying (negatively) to having a stock porsche running against a modded civic with turbo and NOS. In a lot of cases, the modded civic will outperform the porsche, but throw a turbo and nitrous on the porsche and would it still be the same thing? Lets wait till the developers really get into this new update and then we can start passing judgement. Just my $.02
[EVO 4G General] diomark:
FPS is over-rated. This update feels *fast*

-mark
[EVO 4G General] nhutpham:
Agreed, I was rooted before and while the ROM made the phone more snappy than stock, it feels more clean on this official update. Everything just flows better, how you'd expect a 1ghz processor to perform. I hadn't tried a froyo rom before this one though.

All I could really ask for is further improvement to the video camera, which doesn't look like it's too far from becoming a reality between the updates and the developers here.
[EVO 4G General] jeffeulogy:
mine still doesn't print money, or build an island and transform into a jet and fly me there. also, the three wishes app is missing from the newest avalaunch. so yeah, i'm disappointed. how do i file a class action lawsuit? or is the class action app only for iphone?
[EVO 4G General] redrazr7791:
Newbie :D:)
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
I personally couldnt give two damns about the fps thing.. a few milliseconds difference on scrolling doesnt bother me. I'm definitely NOT disappointed that my 4g speeds damn near doubled. I'm NOT disappointed that my battery life is better... i'm NOT disappointed that I have full flash now and im definitely not disappointed that the phone is faster. I've already updated and it seems that some people think that this is android 3.0 not 2.2. Im happy with the improvements ive seen.
[EVO 4G General] svinyard:
Chrome to Phone is freaking awesome, I wish they would make it easier for people to get as it would be more mainstream. Love it. Battery life does seem to be improved, will have to see what it looks like after a 3hr talk time work day. Things definitely are faster, there is no lag when I select a contact's Quick Contact widget amongst other things.

BTW, only gripe is that freaking Video is still sub-par. In average to low light settings its still garbage at 720p Mp4...even if it did improve which I can't tell yet.
