thanks buddy, im gona try that one. but is it available for worldwide shipping? to China for example
[EVO 4G Accessories] omegasun18:
While i do admit that they were harder to get off the sheet then most other screen protectors with very little effort you can get them off using the instructions that were posted. once you get them off the sheet they work great. If spending 13-27 extra dollars so that you dont have to take an extra 2 minutes and use a razor (or i used a flat head screwdriver) to help the pieces off then i guess go for it. but the screen protectors them selves are actually quiet nice.

Anyway to each there own for me it was not that hard to get them off the sheet just put the end of the razor or object right where the line for the cut is and pull gently on the excess till it comes up. for under 3$ i still feel it is worth it. people for get that most shipping includes handling they have to pay someone to make sure the protector is in the envelop with and shipped. the extra 2$ per i am sure makes them some money but not nearly as much as you people are acting like.
[EVO 4G Accessories] sp3a12uk:
Yup, I just got mine from radio shack, same price as online.
[EVO 4G Accessories] backdown:
Don't order the stealth guards. I had 4 sets shipped to me and they were horrendous. I put a set on myself (looked terrible), had a buddy who does them at work put it on and it looked terrible..just not worth it. I ended up charging my money back because they were horrible quality.
[EVO 4G Accessories] duongdn:
I'm not sure why everyone is knocking the Stealth Guards? I have always used Zagg shields in the past and the Stealth Guards are on par with them. Yah they come in a plain envelope, and yah they are stuck together, and yah you have to becareful when you pull them apart, but once you get over that the process is the same as putting on the Zagg shields. Just mix a solution of 2 drops dish washing liquid with some water, wash your hands thouroughly, clean the phone, spray the shield with the solution, stick it on the phone, slide in place, remove any excess water with a credit card, let dry. Thats it. It will look like there is a haze for at least 24 hours, as it did with the Zaggs, but after that it is crystal clear. I have used 3 of these on three different evos and they all look great and you have to look extremely hard to tell that there is a shield on them.

hey guys,

how do i make the drop down status bar background transparent ? i have the changed the png with a transparent png of my choice, but even after every thing it still comes as a full black rather than a semi transparent black (which is the picture i replaced the original with).

also, how do i edit the xml file and what do i have to edit to attain transparency in the back ground. i would also love if i could do the same for the lockscreen. since all this is framework-res.apk. how do i correctly decompile and compile back the xmls and whats the best and the correct way to sign the apk back. caz i have been having issuses with reboots and FC's.

i know its alot of questions, but just tryin to learn how to skin/mod android correctly. thank you guys

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tricsio:
First, let me express gratitude and respect to the chefs and testers for making this possible.

Should this would have been a true dual-boot, things would have been different.

A dual-boot will give you the choice between which Operating System to boot from at boot-up (not after initializing a host OS). When a NAND build becomes available for your device then we can use refer to the terminology.

Remember you are running on a guest (virtual) OS hosted on the Windows Mobile platform. Your system is first providing resources to the host.

Issues often occur; let’s take a moment to note that the host could be contributing. We are still in a very promising experimental mode. On some devices things are closer to final than others. We often complain about slowness, freezes, battery drainage, none connectivity… Many other factors have a role in these issues; we can only point out the most obvious and logical ones.

The mentions of Radio, ROM, Kernel, APN, and SD card are building a wide gap. Co-dependency of an efficient and well running build could also have to do with the service provider (strength or proximity of cell connection) – The example of two similar phones with the same configurations, with the same provider at opposite side of town will give different benchmark results. Now let’s have those devices on different provider networks. You see the point? No two exact devices are the same once the laws of science get involved.

i updated my O2 dell streak 21 originally on 3883 firmware version to pauls r2 2.1 from modaco. followed all the instructions to the word. nw my streak wont boot up. stuck on boot screen. checkd for various solutions online. tried reflashing stock rom/recovery but those also dont work. if updating using stock recovery, wen i select the 2nd option, n then again press the shutter button to begin flashing, progress bar appears but doesnt start. nothing happens. happens with all the .pkg files. m renaming all to "Update.pkg". hav tried official 3883, 4399, 8105 & the leaked 6941. plus hav tried pauls r1 & r2, n also 3833.zip official using custom recovery (clockwork 1.8.1.7) the latest 2.5 gives me a blank screen. nothing works. can sumbody please help me. am in dire jeopardy here so to speak. pls help. :(:(:(:confused::confused::confused:
[Streak 5 Android Development] spences10:
If you can get into recovery select the first option 'Factory Reset' if you have flashed the r2 it should work.

Go into the custom recovery, select flash from zip select file from your sdcard

flash the rom again

if you get a continuous boot loop then, pull the back off > go into recovery

select optyion 1 'Factory Reset'

should boot normally after that

i have cam across this situation a few times now after formatting system, boot, cache via the custome recovery and that has worked each time

You're asking a question that can't be answered, there is no progress bar on cracking something that has yet to be done, the method for rooting this phone's bootloader is somewhat different from other android phones, it can take days, weeks or even years.

So you're going to an inferior OS because you don't have the option to move onto a different OS?

Even without the root the phone is still better... though a subjective opinion. Plus the do have other phones that are already loaded with custom ROMs that you can buy if you don't already have an Sony Xperia X10.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ixemun:
I beg to differ, before X10 I used to use iPhone 3GS, if I were to compare the flexibility of using both phones for my everyday needs, Android is better regardless of it being only 1.6 for X10 at the moment (better than iOS 3.1.3, and way better than iOS4 on 3GS). And don't bother suggesting me iPhone4, IMO I see nothing new that can change my mind from using any android phones.

As for MT, what do you normally use it for? most apps normally use it for zooming, and games, well for virtual buttons. I even bought an iPod touch just so I wont miss any apps/games released for iPhone/iPod Touch, but it's there collecting dust for the past 4 months.

If you can do better, then come on lets see your cracked boot-loader and custom ROM's if you have so much to offer.

Keep up the good work dev's most if not near all appreciate what you are trying to do.

On a side note does anyone remember how long it took for the PSP to be cracked, if i remember it was around 2 years, so if you don't like the apparent useless root **** off and get an iphone....
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BingoRingo:
I think answering "Sorry, we do not have this information" would have been enough. It was a legitimate question, maybe someone knows someone who's about to crack it, maybe it's been cracked and they're just fixing a few bugs and someone could provide an estimate.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peliROJO:
hahaha, well, calm down dude. it's just a phone return. I've been through this and you are going to get it resolved. What's going on between their departments and their ticket system is, at times, erratic and frustrating. Give it another week and see if you get the email. That will have the link to the FedEx shipping label.

Good luck and just chill. I think my last return took 2 weeks to get a replacement label sent to me, because the first label expired before the phone was "overnighted" to me.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noneedlessnoise:
What I'm upset with is how unorganized this all seems. I had an iPhone since launch and every time I had a problem with my phone I'd just go to the store, they'd hand me a new one and I'd be on my way. I got a Nexus One because I wanted to try out Android and this is leaving a pretty sour taste in my mouth to be honest.

What I'm mostly concerned about is them charging me $529, I thought that the hold was supposed to be placed right away, that's what they told me, and it never was. Now they have my credit card information (although considering what I've seen so far it's probably wrong) I'm kind of worried about what's going on with it. Every time I call they tell me different things, they can never explain why my information keeps coming up wrong. I mean, is it wrong for me to be concerned and kind of pissed that I've called 5 times and every single time they have my shipping info in wrong? I need them to send me things and I need to send them things, if they don't have this information correct how can this be done? It just seems like a hilariously easy situation to correct and nothing is being done. Then they have reps authorizing escalations for reasons they can't explain. I just want the damn label so I can send the phone back.

EDIT: Haha, a half hour after I call and this woman totally freaks out on the phone, my FedEx label shows up in my inbox. Class A service.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctbear:
That's how the customer service has always been. Friendly, but useless.

I myself have received 4 different N1s from their warehouse, and they messed up my case for each and every one of them.

It could either be a wrong address, mix me up with another customer, send to an address without street name (yea, I know), or just not shipping it at all.

That's the reason I have decided that I would never purchase an HTC for my next phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wsrider:
I sent my n1 to htc because of constant reboots. when i got it back there was no battery cover.

I called again . then got a new back cover the following week I got to keep the free oem battery

Ok guys here is the deal. Some people claim they are getting amazing battery life and I want to know what they are running.

If you are getting great battery life like some claim. Post up this info about your phone. Let me know if i left out anything.

1. ROM

2. Kernel

3. Radio version

4. WiMax radio version

3. Are you using set cpu if so how are your profiles set up

4. Are you using juice defender/ultimate juice if so how are your profiles set up

5.Sync Settings

6.Radios always on or do you turn them on and off

7.Display settings

8.Categorize usage (light,moderate,heavy)

9.How do you charge your battery(through the phone, through the phone with an odd technique, wall charger, car charger, usb, etc..)

10.Anything else that would affect battery life/miscellaneous comments

11.Post up some screen shots of battery life unplugged and device up and awake time(be sure to reboot before your battery run as awake and up time do not reset every time you unplug)

I will be testing out my phone today and ill post my results later. Thanks guys I think this should help users get better battery life.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
good luck on trying to start a "definitive" thread. I think you may be asking for a bit much of people though. 11 items? screenshots?

How do you define "amazing"? I generally get about 17-21 hours with moderate usage on baked snack 1.7 with default kernel. I have latest radio, and the 2nd latest wimax radio. I'm not running cetcpu, any of the juices, or anytype of task killer, although I do have systempanel set up to monitor all the time. I have echange and gmail set up to sync as items arrive (with no off peak times). I uninstalled FB (cuz it would try and sync even when I told it not to - even the one for sense), uninstalled news, stocks and all of the other bloatware. data always on, rarely use wifi (cuz my router sucks), and keep radios always on - i never turn them off. Moderate daily usage - maybe 20 minutes worth of calls, read and reply to 15-20 emails, 40-60 minutes of pandora, 30 minutes of internet browsing with stock browser, and my biggest battery drain is the xda app, which as some of you might have guessed, I'm slightly addicted to. I generally charge for an hour or 2 at night with the stock wall charger, then top off in the car on the way to work if I'm below 75% or so (30 minute drive will charge about 25% battery with an aftermarket palm pre car charger). Keep my brightness at auto until I get home, when I change it to 19% (because I can't seem to get the slider to hit exactly 20% on the dazzle widget lol)

occationally, I'll charge at my desk or on the way home, but those are the exceptions, on days when I'm using the phone heavily

biggest thing Ive found to help my battery is system panel - helped me identify a number of rogue apps using cpu and sucking my battery dry.

no screenshots.

and just so you know, you can probably find all of this info by searching and going through the threads. There are a ton of battery threads already.

edit - heyhey this is my 600th post!
