I had a completely terrible experience with this company. I was told a product was available early, so I ordered it that day and it took them 3 weeks to ship it still. I finally get my product, and I failed to actually read the description (probably my own fault) and its a clear snap on case. The picture makes it look like its a white snap on case (the coolest one Ive ever seen). So I call them, and their customer service person and I argued about how the case appears exactly as it would on the phone.

Their picture:

My picture:

Like I said, Its kind of my fault. I tried to tell her the picture was very misleading and she was very rude. They took forever and a day to ship my product and some of their other things are overpriced. So, just letting you all know, I had a terrible experience. Buyer Beware
[Captivate Accessories] fishersdad:
I just bought the same exact thing from them for my Captivate and I like it . It slides easily in and out of the pocket and it allows you to see the carbon fiber back still and logo for Galaxy s which is cool . I would say yea that the image needs updating but all in all I personally like the way it looks . Just my 2 cents
[Captivate Accessories] commander2k:
I agree its a good case, but Im not much for the clear cases... So as far as my experience as a whole, terrible. Product- good, but not my type.

The biggest thing for me is that I was told it was available august 12th but it wasnt shipped until sept 3rd.
[Captivate Accessories] solufein:
it's obviously waaaay thicker than what the pic leads me to believe. color aside, that thing is a monstrosity.
[Captivate Accessories] commander2k:
Keep in mind, I didnt have the front faceplate on., so it probably looks bigger than it is. I just took a quick pic because I sat there for 10 or 15 minutes with this lady on the phone arguing that their picture wasnt an accurate depiction.
[Captivate Accessories] Paladuck:
That's retarded...the picture is clearly white and the real thing is clearly clear lol.
[Captivate Accessories] commander2k:
According to her, it looks exactly as it would on the phone. She apologized that if I thought it had a smoky haze it was just a misconception. I was just mad I had to argue with her over it...
[Captivate Accessories] Rongvald:
Deleted because I was wrong.

It turns out the product picture in the OP is that of the Azmer Clear Snap On Crystal Hard Case - which is described as having a color of "Clear"

http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Clear-Snap-On-Crystal-Hard-Case-P88843.htm
[Captivate Accessories] commander2k:
Yeah, I realized after I got it that the description says clear... I ordered this when it was only on 1 or 2 sites. But I was looking through pictures of cases on google shopping to find one i liked, and I saw this picture... Didnt even bother to read because it looked awesome.
[Captivate Accessories] alphadog00:
I think the problem is that the "picture" is not a photograph but an artist rendering. This rendering shows what parts are covered and what are not; it clearly does not show any cutouts for side buttons - this should be visible in either the front or back image.

They took a picture of the phone and shaded around it with an opaque image to show how the case would cover. The case is bigger then pictured, and has a completely different level of transparency. I see no disclaimer that this is an artists renderring.

This is misleading and i would dispute with your credit card company or paypal.
[Captivate Accessories] CheapDroidsManager:
Hello commander2k , I would like first like to apologize for image representation of the case on our store. I will be sure to place a disclaimer in there about the image being a simulation. We are still in the process of get proprietary images of the cases on the phones. Please pm your order number I would like to refund your entire order and ship you out a free Zagg screen for your troubles. Or if youd like anything else please let me know .

Again I do apologize for any trouble this may have caused

Regards

If you would like to get a ful
[Captivate Accessories] commander2k:
So Just to bump this I PMed ^that guy^ over a week ago with my order number and still no reply. So still not looking like a fantastic company.
[Captivate Accessories] smokestack76:
Strange how they showed up lol. I have been thinking of getting a clear case. Just so i could paint the inside of it. Use some krylon plastic paint and it should look killer. Just not sure how tight the cases are so it doesnt rub the paint off. But tons of possibilities if the paint does hold up well. Could make for some amazing custom cases.
[Captivate Accessories] CheapDroidsManager:
Im sorry for the delay in response !

I just replied to your PM .
[Captivate Accessories] commander2k:
That may be a good idea... If I knew how to draw with anything other than crayons I would give it a shot lol. And ive seen this company pop up in lots of other forums, always in the form of their own company, not faking good reviews or anything. theyre really trying to get some good publicity and give good customer service. He PMed me and is going to send me a free case of my choice, seems legit. Im starting to change my mind about the company, although I did have to jump through hoops in the first place.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jjones1983:
Okay, I've searched high and low and have not found anything related to this and if it's already been asked about, apologies in advance...

In every CM6 based build that I've tried, on a fresh install, everything is fine. I keep my builds very basic, not many widgets running, etc, etc...

However, it seems like after a days use, the phone will slow to an absolute crawl. Scrolling between homescreens is severely laggy, opening screen previews then subsequently selecting a screen is extremely jerky and slow. Reboots don't help, task killing doesn't help, nothing seems to help, except..

If I remove a widget, any widget, does not matter which, everything goes back to normal. A lot of times, after using the phone for a while, it slows back down. Remove another widget, everything back to normal. It's really strange and quite frankly it's driving me up the wall because I highly prefer Non-Sense builds, but the Sense based builds don't give me this problem at all. Has anybody else had this issue, if so, were you able to fix it? Or has this already been discussed and I missed it? Thanks in advance...

Edit: Just tested it again... Everything running fine, added vlingo widget, phone slows to a crawl, remove it, back to normal. Tried this with Vlingo, Engadget, Music, and Power Control. All with the same results.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cookzitall:
sameproblem

My phone slows down to the point where I have to reset...what kind of micro SD r u using?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jjones1983:
Transcend, 4 GB, Class 6... I thought it may have been a overclocking issue, uninstalled SetCPU, no dice. Reinstalled. I can not figure out for the life of me what's causing it. Rebooting doesn't help me, I have to remove a widget. I can replace it with shortcuts all I want, it's definitely widget related.
[Epic 4G General] Gagstr:
Hi All,

First of all Wirless Tethering, I have One click Rooted my epic, and installed the wifi tether app but am not able to transmit signal (other devices cannot detect my wifi transition). In other words it’s not working. Do I have to install a specific kernel for this to work? and if so where would I get it?

Secondly, CyanogenMod and Froyo. Are they available for the Epic yet?, where, if not when?

Finally, Rooting, is there any way to tell that my device is perm-rooted? I want to make sure the rooting was successful even though it should be because my phone restarted like the directions said it would.

Thanks Much, p.s. I just left apple/att for epic/sprint so I don’t know all the terminology, please explain in detail :) Thanks!!
[Epic 4G General] ravizzle:
No cyangen mod 6 yet, or any roms yet, however roms will be coming real soon.

As for checking root try using an app that requires root like titanium backup.

For wifi tether, what version are u using?

Sent from my Epic 4G
[Epic 4G General] Gagstr:
for the Tether im using 2.0.5-pre8 istalled via tAttachAPkInstaller. I found this in the forums and people claimed to have success with it. The tether app in the marketplace said it needed a special kernel for it to work, any idea on where to get that and how to install new kernels?
[Epic 4G General] ImSoHungry:
To check root just type "su" in terminal and you should get "#" prompt.
[Epic 4G General] ravizzle:
Ur using the right wifi tether app, I use the same and it works fine for me. Idk why its not working for u.

Sent from my Epic 4G
[Epic 4G General] npaulseth:
Wifitether is probably working, it only broadcasts AD_HOC mode, which a lot of devices won't pick up. Make sure your Wifi drivers are updated and you are using a computer (not a p2p or DS).
[Epic 4G General] Gagstr:
I checked the root by installing titanium backup and it wen smoothly, but this damn tether app is driving me craZY! i have uninstalled and reinstalled the whole proccess and nothing works.... when i first start the tether app the download goes from 0 to .4 kb and the upload goes from 0 to .1 and then bot go back to 0 and thats it...... no other phones or computers have been able to see my signal... anything in the settings might be messing me up?? maybe diff chann?? im currently broadcasting on Chan 11.... even when i use bluetooth to connect it said paired but not connected....WHAT IN THE HELL BOBBY !!!!! i needs some helps :(
[Epic 4G General] FrumRoll:
I had the same problem with wifi tether until I updated the wifi drivers on my PC. In my case I could see the network "androidtether" but attempting to connect caused the NIC to timeout requiring a disable/enable to get going again.
[Epic 4G General] WisdomWolf:
Still waiting for someone to get wifi tether working in access point mode. That's one thing I'm really going to miss from my Evo when I switch tonight.
[Epic 4G General] fivewall:
I know its not wifi, but the pdanet tether application has been working great for me on the Epic. Its in the marketplace and can be installed without root. It does USB/Bluetooth, but not wifi.
[Epic 4G General] Gagstr:
OK i tried the PDAnet app but i cant seem to pair a friends iphone 4 with my device... i turn on blue tooth then pair then turn on the app and try to connect/repair but it keeps saying "paired but not connected" any settings i have to mess with on this app or the iphone 4 to make this work?

Thanks much for the helps.
[Epic 4G General] LordLugard:
I don't think the iPhone's bluetooth supports bluetooth DUN profile, that's why it didn't connect. iPhone's wifi supports ad-hoc wifi though.
[Vibrant General] hydrogenman:
Always seems to be a ton of threads about why people hate touchwiz and how eager they are to get rid of it but...what do you like about what Samsung did different?

I absolutely love the pulldown menu modifications

I love the music/call controls in the pull down, and like the power widget there. This is something I really wish that Google would adopt/roll into stock android later on (or at least Cyanogen).

I also like the shortcut to adjust your phone's brightness (rolling finger across the top bar).

I personally prefer the way this phone handles making a call on a 2nd line and conferencing people in...it's much better than stock android (I came from a Moto droid and conferencing in a new # was always kind of a pain in the ass).

I personally prefer the way they redid the calendar to stock (I seem to be in the minority here though).

I use google voice for all SMS, so I can't really comment on that.

I use LauncherPro, so the actual look of the launcher doesn't bug me...

Actually, the only thing I truly hate about the modifications Samsung made was the damn alarm program..it's way worse than the droids, and it's way too easy to turn off...and the snooze button is hard to differentiate from the turn off alarm button.

Overall, Samsung has some nice stuff if they just abandon the cartoony iPhones look of the launcher and work on a few of the performance hickups here and there.
[Vibrant General] pavvy:
Other than the calendar (which is a near-total fail for me; maybe others' calendars don't have the same bugs as mine - which is a scary thought, b/c it makes a global "fix" seem less likely), I really like TouchWiz - particularly the features listed above. The "Power Control" Android widget (or whatever it's called) - which is normally crucial - becomes almost unnecessary, provided you're OK with using the pulldown for toggling GPS, Wifi, etc.; and sliding finger for brightness. (The only Power Control item you can't toggle using pulldown is "Sync," which I almost never turn off anyway).

I like how the TW icons look; and I dig the app drawer, b/c I prefer the "list" view that it offers. I may try another launcher someday, but right now I feel no need -- I'm digging TW (and much prefer it to stock Android).

Don't care for the Samsung widgets at all, but their functions can easily be bested with stuff in the Market.
[Vibrant General] hydrogenman:
I've never once used any of the TW widgets...that's one thing that was a bit of fail

BTW, you can get the TW style of app drawer on 3rd party launchers
[Vibrant General] os2baba:
I was rather pleasantly surprised with TouchWiz. I think it's much better than Stock Android. I'm not sure exactly why people are complaining about it.

What I like about it.

1. WebOS like UI controls for Music and Toggles in the Notification drop down.

2. Paged scrolling of apps in the App Drawer. I hate inertial list scrolling.

3. Some of the widgets like dual clock and calendar clock. If there is no place to add a widget on that screen, it finds a screen with space. Buddies Now is a nice widget, but it's slow and buggy.

4. The interface to add/remove screens and move screens around.

What I dislike.

1. It syncs all contacts instead of just "My Contacts". Of course this is not the launcher, but the app. But other than this, the contacts and dialer are much better than stock.

2. Pressing the Home button, sends it off to Screen 4 on my phone instead of the center screen. Very annoying.

3. There is an Android bug that prevents folders from being opened. With LauncherPro, I can restart the launcher which fixes the problem. No such ability in TW.

4. Can only change two of the 4 icons at the bottom.
[Vibrant General] dcontrol:
Likes:

Messaging/calling through contacts.

Power control in notification drawer

Launcher is starting to grow on me

The interface when a call is in progress

Puzzle piece notifications

Dislikes:

Music player can't distinguish between songs and ringtones

Nearly the same issue with gallery and album art

Can't set the home screen when less than 5 screens

Lock screen but that's purely cosmetic

The media scanner, but I don't think that's TW specific (Be awesome to have it scan on demand)

I really don't like how all the Samsung widgets want to take up an entire screen.
[Vibrant General] pavvy:
Thanks, that's good to know... I'll have to try 'em sometime, I know they have lots of fans around here.
[Vibrant General] wolfvgang:
I actually prefer TW to LauncherPro or ADW. So far everything works pretty well.

I do wish that the samsung widgets were re-sizeable so they didn't take up the whole screen. I like the app drawer, it is just copying the iPhone, but I don't visit it a whole lot thanks to the FolderOrganizer widget. That widget should have come stock with the phone IMHO.
[Vibrant General] hondaguy:
i really like some of the modifications that samsung has added, especially in the dialer and contacts apps (they have already been mentioned). i found another one last night in the calendar app, if you add a location to an entry it shows you a map of the location from the calendar entry.
[Vibrant General] bert269:
Hey. If I do understand you correctly, you are using ADW or LauncherPro and mention that 'everything is working pretty well, also referring to 'samsung widgets'?

How do you access 'samsung widgets' from say ADW Launcher - ESPECIALLY BuddiesNow ??

I can only access it from the default launcher, but do prefer ADW also - but am stuck

Thanks for your help or ideas.
[Vibrant General] nearblack:
I don't understand anyone wouldn't use LauncherPro.

The scrolling dock is genius. I have about 15 apps that I use regularly, so the dock does a really great job to accommodate that. Also, you can easily add your own custom icons, and do away with the default ones that come with TW and LP.

I also hate that on TW, you have the home screen # indicators at the top, giving you a lot less home screen space.

The app drawer, though not as easy to use as the Applications viewer in TW, is at least original. This phone already looks like an iPhone, so having a very Android-esque applications viewer is refreshing.

TW does a lot fantastic things, some of which you guys mentioned, but the general layout of it is pretty ****ty, and LauncherPro is just about perfect... and free.
[Vibrant General] d01100100:
I like the toggles on the notification pull down. I don't like how the brightness slider has no visual feedback to determine what the current bright is set at. If there was a slider widget attached to the bottom or a popup when the slider is in use that would make it easier.

I like the swipe on contacts for the call/sms.

After loading JI6, I tried using the TW launcher again, but I couldn't find any of the TW widgets compelling so I'm back to Launcherpro.
[Vibrant General] z0phi3l:
Just found this out, if you dislike the iPhone style of the app drawer, left to right, changing it to Alphabetical list gives me the normalish way we are used to the app drawer working, up and down.

Now if we could just remove the annoying outline on the icons I'd be set
[Vibrant General] NikolaiT:
Coming from an iPhone, Touchwiz was a bit too iphone-ripoff for me. I personally use Launcher+ but TW did have some good points.
[Vibrant General] Owenv:
my biggest dislike is that contacts and dialer are no longer the same application. I never had a dialer shortcut on my phone before because I could just use contacts, now I have to use up 1 more space for the dialer.
[Vibrant General] z0phi3l:
You can access the contacts from the dialer, would be an extra click if you really want to not have that extra icon
[Vibrant General] Owenv:
yeah but as far as I know you can't get to dialer from contacts, and I'm used to having the contacts icon on my home screen. I know I could just change it but you know what they say about old habits. however it isn't a problem since I have another contacts app that solved it for me.
[Vibrant General] mikea3000:
My favorite feature is the dialer. I love the fact that it has speed dial unlike stock android. I also love the predictive dialing. These two are the biggest for me.

Hi there.

Friends, I have problem with some buttons on HW keyboard, especially "backspace" and "O". When I press these buttons, there is no feedback and I have to press much strongly then other buttons.

Probably there is some mess under the keyboard.

Is here any chance, how to safely disassembly the keyboard without any damages?
