I'm sorry, I don't like when people put benchmarks down. I happen to believe that some of the benchmarks, including Quadrant Professional are accurate and reflective of real performance. Then again everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

I just flashed bionix final team whiskey ,oc n everything its really really fast but I just ran a 790! Why did our run so slow? I barely have any apps on here in the first place...?
[Vibrant General] demo23019:
i get 900-910 with JI6 everything stock.

edit

sorry OP wants Score with 2.2
[Vibrant General] :
exactly what i was about to say. who cares about 2.2 when you can flash a bionix rom and hit up to 2600 on quadrant. not that quadrant really means anything more than a benchmark.
[Vibrant General] cthach11:
I think OP is looking for a official froyo 2.2 rom...Sorry OP, no official froyo, but there is a ported version eugene has done.

Click here

Although this is a "froyo", no one is sure if this can be an accurate representation of how our vibrants will run when we get the official OTA, but if you want "froyo" now, by all means go ahead and flash it. Its still missing a few kinks and has bugs.

Perfect. Thank you kindly :)

Hmmm looks like posting it to the web compressed it a bit. Think you could ZIP it? I mean you dont have to... I could probably find it now but it would be awesome if you did :)
[Android Apps and Games] merkk:
does anyone get decent live streaming with qik? I'm using an evo on sprint. I tried it with 3g and over wifi. It was a little better over wifi, but not nearly what i would consider decent, even with the video set to the lowest quality setting.

when i play back the video after it's finished uploading and saving it to the qik site, the video playback is fine. so it seems clear it's not the phone's camera. And i would have thought using the wifi would eliminate any speed issues. so it is a problem with the qik site/application?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] luvit:
Squareup.com's app will not show-up in the market on some androids which are rooted.

I acquired the APK, but the installer ends with "Application not installed"

This is really sad. Windows and many other OSes have insecure features and may be used as a POS system.. BUT A ROOTED ANDROID PHONE CANNOT BE A POS??

Is there a way to manually extract the files within the APK, and do a manual install?

Tried pushing it to /data/app or /system/app with terminal emulator?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] luvit:
Thanks for the response.

Can you clarify these steps?

Are you suggesting that I extract all the contents and place all of them into one or both of the folders you listed?

I'm savvy with term emulator, but would root explorer do the same?

Again, thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
I bought this case for my G2, and I LOVE IT!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0045EI356/ref=oss_product

I got it for $2.30 + $2.33 shipping. It fits great, looks good, and doesn't really add much thickness to the phone at all. It has a matte black finish, and a slightly rubbery feel. Not sticky like the gel case, though. It slips in and out of a pocket just fine. It fits exactly like the T-Mobile brand gel case, just without the added thickness of the gel part.

All of the corners are well protected, and the raised edge around the screen should add some protection there, too. I'm just glad I can set my phone down without scratching up the brushed metal battery cover (any more than it already is). I will try to post up some pics soon. Gotta find my camera or bust out the old N1.

I actually just placed an order for 2 more cases, and the shipping is still $2.33. So for under $7, I'll get 2. One is for a friend, and one is for a spare for me. I figured I'd get it now. Sometimes these deals disappear.

EDIT: To be more precise, the shipping did jump up to $2.95 for 2, so the total was $7.55. There are several different vendors on there with different shipping options. YMMV
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] greensnow:
just went to amazon to order one...price came up as $1.65 + $2.98 shipping. I upped it to 2 cases and it jumped to $5.96 shipping. I have no problem paying that for 2 cases but how did you get it to stay at $2.33 shipping?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
Probably a different vendor. Like I said, it was the one selling for $2.30. Can't go wrong either way, though.

Each vendor has different shipping options and policies. I edited my post above to reflect that.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] monster206:
i just ordered 5 for like $16 lol now why did I order 5.....
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
Why not? I may order some more myself. I still want to post some pics of it on the phone. I might get creative with some mirrors.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] cbmm:
tmobile selling the same one for $16 each... wtf
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] starfcker69:
I got that same case from Amazon (for a bit more $) but sent it back because it got in the way of the touchpad, which I use pretty extensively for navigating, copy/paste, etc.

For $5 that case is a great deal!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] BoogyMann:
Picked a couple up. We shall see how good these work. The one thing I can see being annoying is make it more difficult to use the touch pad.

Boogy
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
The trackpad still works the same for me, and I have big thick awkward sausage fingers. This case is super thin. In fact, it seems to have eliminated the issue of the optical trackpad activating on its own occasionally. It hasn't done it once since I installed the case.

It doesn't seem worth it to return a case that only costs a couple of dollars. You'd have to pay that much to just ship it back! I wouldn't go overboard and order like 10 of them unless you already know you like it though...

The gel case at T-Mobile definitely makes the trackpad hard to use, though. Its very thick, even around the optical trackpad. Inner monologue: "Enough about the gel case already...everyone knows you hate it!" Is it weird I have conversations with myself sometimes?

I'm a cheapskate when it comes to accessories, so the price trumps all for me! Not to mention, flat black is always AWESOME.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] daywiss:
this price is awesome. i ordered one.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] potentdro:
$5 eh?

How long did shipping take?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] zuludelta9:
Nice find man

Just bought one it was $2.50 + $2.98 s/h. Sucks when the s/h is greater than the product itself but oh well.

Oh yeah and I used the AMEX reward points too.

Again, good find. Gonna return this Tmo one to the store :)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] decksy:
can you post some pics of it?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
I got mine in 3 days after placing my order.

Enjoy...
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] luis86dr:
Just ordered this case. Looks better then the body glove one

Sent from my HTC Vision G2
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] zuludelta9:
nice, it doesn't cover the buttons. i don't think i'd like it to though... feels weird.

thanks again
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Vandam500:
Just ordered one! Only $4.70 after shipping. Will post my thoughts after I get it. Thanks OP
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Zak Jones!:
Yeah, price jumped up for me, shipping went down.

$3 for the case, $1 for shipping.

Excited for it. :) Nabbed some (a five pack.) screen protectors for like, $1.50 and $1 shipping in the recommended items section.

Thanks for pointing this out, man. :) Been dropping my phone too much. :s
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] daywiss:
Is there any way to remove the cover once you put it on? its really snapped on tight. I mean the fit is great, but im worried i wont be able to take it off if i ever need to get in the back.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] zuludelta9:
what i usually do is on the upper left of the phone (the keyboard portion) you can see a clip. I dig my nail in there and kind of pry that off, then shift the back casing side to side till all of the rest snap off. The top same deal, but I think the clip is near the search button or mic.

Then again this is the Tmobile Gel one. The one from amazon still hasn't shipped yet! :(
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] willham:
Thank you op this case is awesome!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
All of these clip-on type cases can be tricky to take off. Be careful not to put any stress on the hinge mechanism when removing. Use a fingernail to get the clips started, and work your way around.

Other than once with the updated youtube app crashing and needing a battery pull, I haven't had the need to remove the case.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] zuludelta9:
Hey guys here's a video review I put together.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ty2KgpMDRiI
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Pickx:
Thank you for making that video, it's very informative.

I'm still debating between getting that case or getting a pouch.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] dabido:
smh... got the case in mail today and turned out to be the wrong case! lol. I contacted the seller from amazon to fix this issue. Anyway, im currently using the BSE full body skin with my old Nexus 1 android pouch. Works like a charm for now.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] zuludelta9:
Thanks. Yeah one thing to note, I think the title says "Rubberized" for the after market one. But it's really plastic heh.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Pickx:
lol zuludelta, your video (and the pricetag, of course!) made me buy two of these. Usually I can't stand cases, so we will see how this works out.

edit: my grammar sucks.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] willham:
I usually hate cases too, but with this case I can't really tell its on cause it doesn't add any thickness to the phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] luis86dr:
Case is perfect. Got mine in. Easy to remove as well. Not like the body glove one. This one snugs on tight and can be easily removed. Both front and back parts. 10/10.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ffff00:
I got two of these for a grand total of $9.46.

I'm really impressed with the quality of these for how cheap they were.

Thanks so much for the tip.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] TL24:
Yeah i also have this case on my G2 and the built quality is just excellent! Can't believe how cheap it was too! Best case for the G2 in my opinion, better get yours cuz i got mine! haha
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] zuludelta9:
lol glad it helped. Wish I got a spiff for it, but oh well. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] minotauri:
i just got this case too. its a lot slimmer than the tmobile kick stand clear case, but i wish it was clear as well and not black. other than that, this case is really nice and a low profile.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Pickx:
Well looks like it's your lucky day.

This seller also seems to have other colors: Blue, Green, Pink, Red, Orange and Smoke. Note that Smoke is also semi-transparent. The Vanguard logo in the pictures means it's the same case.

However while the descriptions for the non-transparent cases mention 'rubberized', the ones for the transparent cases don't. This suggests a different finish.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] pmstc:
This case is pretty awesome. It's exactly what I wanted. It might be able to be made SLIGHTLY more aesthetically appealing with some more effort in the design, but for 5 bucks I am not complaining. It looks good, the texture is good (has a very slight rubbery feel to create friction but not enough to collect lint or make it hard to take out of your pocket), it's thin, and I can tell it's going to protect my phone.

:)

I approve.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] s14mc:
i got one also after seeing this thread. i like the case cant beat it for the price. i thought it was gonna be more like the gel case from tmobile, a lil more softer and could bend. but hey for 5 bucks? cant go wrong
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Ties0:
Got this along(not arrived yet) with the T-mobile anti smear screen protector. I am still debating whether to get the skinomi/zagg full body protection or not if this is too bulky. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] rhodes588:
Just got this case.. not bulky at all and has a great feel to it..
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] V1R3Z:
I just got mine (the cheap one from amazon)

And let me tell you THANKYOU!!! Lol its great...

I like the matte finish its not extremely rubbery and its not shiny and its incredibly inexpensive. It fits very nicely not loose at all and it let's the keyboard open and close all the way... AND unlike the tmobile black cases this one is a bit thinner and doesn't interfere too much with the top row of the keyboard. Also something I didn't like about the tmobile case was that the long plastic sides around the sides of the screen were flimsy or wobbly but these are nice and solid and over all I'm amazed at the quality/price ratio...

Definitly highly recomended
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Vandam500:
Just got mines today and I agree with everyone, this case is awesome! It feels really good and doesn't add that much bulk. For only $4.70 shipped I must say this is a steal!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Bishybob:
I ordered mine a few days ago. Got two of them. Couldn't resist with all the good reviews and the cheap price. :-)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] dyndragon:
Just got mine. It's definitely not as nice feeling as a Seidio Innocase, but it will do in the meantime. The plastic is decent quality, but the edges are a bit sharp and i think might need a bit of sanding down (it's the mold they use, you can see and feel the seams). But for $4, I'll deal with it.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Pandabanana:
thanks OP i ordered one as well!!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Vandam500:
Loving this case but it hides all the beauty of the G2 :( Gonna try and get a good clear case from somewhere too.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Bishybob:
Got mine in the mail today. I really like it!

It does hide the sexiness of the G2, but seems like it would protect it well.

I swear I ordered 2 of them but when I went back and checked my original order it only shows one. Guess I screwed it up.

I'm still waiting on my clear case with kickstand from accessorygeeks. I'll have to see how the two compare.

Only problem now is the phone doesn't fit in my leather T-Mobile case. Anybody have a link to a nice case with belt clip that will fit G2 with the protector on?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] dorezen:
i also bought a similar looking case off ebay and while it feels great and does a good job protecting the G2 plus make it easier to grip, i notice the phone won't close completely with it on. like the z-hinge will slide apart easier with the case attached.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Bishybob:
Mine seems to be fine. The one I got from Amazon.

There are little tabs that click between the keyboard and the screen to hold the case on, but they don't seem to prevent the keyboard from closing all the way.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] dorezen:
what im talking about is a very very small gap between the keyboard and the screen. most ppl prob won't notice since the phone can't be locked shut anyway.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] renn9420:
Thanks OP for the pics. Went on Ebay and bought a matte black rubberized and carbon fiber one. Total $17.46 which is still cheap compared to the BodyGlove case I bought from TMo. Plus both cases come with the little pry tool to help take case off. Thanks again for the tip. And just in case anyone wants to know what Ebay store has the Carbon Fiber case its My GadgetGarage.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Bishybob:
I'm liking this case more and more. I got those red label 1800 mah batteries from chichi tech or whatever it's called. They are slightly too big and leave a bulge when I try to close my battery cover. With this case I can just leave my battery cover off and battery stays in place just fine! And I don't have to worry about stressing my battery cover. So to whoever suggested that in an earlier post, thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] drm916:
i received my case and its great. Best 4 dollar case I have ever seen. Much smaller than the body glove case.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] choli0090:
Did you remove the red label?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] hipertec:
there are multiple 3rd party sellers..which one is the one you guys are buying from to get the exact case?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Bishybob:
Yep I removed the red label. It is still too big. I can close the battery door but it's hard to close and has a bulge. But the cheap black case solved my problem because I just leave the battery cover off.

But now I have another problem:

My OEM (T-Mobile) clear case with kickstand came in today. It's thicker than the cheap black case and I really like it as well. Only problem is it fits REALLY tight. It is hard as hell to get off. So I can only use OEM battery with it. So now I'm torn between black case and leaving my battery back off and easily change batteries, including the oversized ChiChi tech. Or use the clear case which shows off the G2 better and has a kick stand, but is hard as hell to take off and can only be used with OEM battery. :eek:

Oh I also found a case at Best Buy that will fit the G2 with either case on it. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] sstmcarr:
Just received mine in the mail. Could not be happier with the case. Fits like a glove,finish feels nice to the touch and for $4 who could complain.

If I had to nitpick a flaw with it the only thing I could find would be it adds a little weight to the phone which is just enough to cause my hinge to flop a little more than it did before.

9.5 out of 10

Very satisfied with the case!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] dyndragon:
Just a follow up after having this for 2 or 3 weeks:

The rubberized finish is starting to wear away from the edges. You really do get what you pay for--the sharp edges around where the production molds ended have not worn away.

Still, $4, I'm happy until seidio or someone else makes a better case.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] thatruth132:
Just ordered mine
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] SmartHat:
I ordered the case last week got it yest.

Nothing too fancy, simple protection...easy snap on, snug fit.

It won't provide too much protection but it'll keep your phone free from scratches etc.

My only gripe is the trackball usability is slightly limited...other than that I'd recommend it to anyone.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Trinimass:
i picked one up for ~2.00 aswell when i first got my G2. it exceeded my expectations.

i might pick up another one soon, just to switch up the mood and theme of my phone.

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] dsil711:
Best investment for the G2 for under $5 bucks that Ive ever spent. I bought the clear case with the kickstand and its nice but over time the kickstand broke and got annoying. Also the clear case is more bulky than the $5 case from Amazon. I like the rubber texture to it and also how slim the case is, def worth the money.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] rhodes588:
Meet my friend, black sharpie.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Deestroyer78:
I bought this case as well, and initially I loved it, loved the feel of it, however my phone gets quite germy at work forcing me to use alcohol wipes on it, and the top part of this case just peeled off immediately with the alcohol wipe...I know, I know, shouldn't be using a wipe on it, but that's a dealbreaker for me...I switched to the tmobile gel that I found online for 12 bucks with no shipping/no tax and I absolutely love it! Just thought I would share!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] the orange bandit:
mine arrived yesterday. It's nice - definitely feels cheap, but for $4, you really can't complain.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] martx:
Careful with the clear Tmobile case, I had it on my G2, had keypad out son bumped into me and knocked the phone out of my hand, cover on the screen came off and one of the notches broke and it wouldn't stay on anymore.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] sino8r:
Have you noticed any problems because of the magnetic flap? I had always heard about the concern for messing with the internal compass/accelerometer in the G1 days... Was that ever debunked? I hope so because ever freaking case has one these days....

I did some experimenting of my own and it does effect the internal compass (IE- google maps and any compass app). when removing the magnet... the location distortion becomes normal again. I am unsure of the long term exposure results if there are any... I, for one, have cut out any magnets of cases on any of my Android phones and will do so again with my new case. Hopefully, Otterbox will be coming soon and will replace my current hard tmobile gel-rubber case and large vertical leather belt clip case with the magnets cut out, lol ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] sino8r:
I was thinking about that one too but it looked too fragile. I ended up going with the hard gel case from tmobile identical to the one on post #1 of this thread. I also keep it a thicker leather case on my belt. I would like to keep in my pocket (and avoid the leather case completely) but with my keychain with a 100 keys, flashlight, and usb drive (yes, I am a nerdy dungeon master, lol:p), gum, cigarettes/zippo lighter, change, and pocket knife... my pockets are too damn crowded already.;)
