[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
Its clear from the responses on this thread, that some people have really abused their phones and have no scratches, while others have gotten scratches from normal use.

Treat your phone how you like, and protect it how you choose. But just because some folks on here said they didn't get scratches, that doesn't guarantee that you won't.
[G2 and Desire Z General] killj0y:
ok i thought we pretty much confirmed it is Gorilla Glass and Corning also confirms this. Now of course even GG is still GLASS!!! it is tougher but far from indestructible. Clearly the many iphones and other confirmed GG smartphones i have repaired for clients is proof of this lol. In fact my brother in law has broken his screen probably about 4 times! then again he is in border patrol and in the field so pretty rugged environment. Anyways it is tough but still extra protection never hurts especially when screen protectors are cheap cheap cheap! and cases well you can get cheap and relatively expensive that is up to you. I personally always use a screen protector, and a hybrid silicone and plastic case. Cheap insurance for an expensive piece of hardware that I rely on daily. But as always to each their own.

Proof of gorilla glass on G2

Made a quick video useing a spare G2 i went swimming with to demo the gorilla glass on the screen . shot the video with my replacement G2. If this and the fact that the corning website is not enough for you , well your a ..... fill in the blank with any derogatory word. Thank you and have a nice day . see video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue1OX6WjU50

i got this device for about 1 years and i got some minnor scrach on it nothing big
[G2 and Desire Z General] WTF?:
my G2 goes through HELL every day and the screen is flawless with no protection! (it was a fairly early G2, like from a year or more ago)

That's the one thing that this phone is not good at, recording video. :-( But strong glass, not a scratch on mine either.
[G2 and Desire Z General] patnmn:
WOW... That video kinda says it all.
[G2 and Desire Z General] G1ForFun:
Wow nice video

That is pretty cool too see. :)

I do use a screen protector and an otter box commuter case (both have been on since I got the phone in January) even though I am sure I do have GG on my G2....I just like my phone to remain in good condition.
[G2 and Desire Z General] happycube:
I just got a G2 from Gazelle... the case is scratched up (looks like this hit concrete more than once), the power button's fail(ing/ed - thankfully w/root my camera button's now power), but there's only two miniscule scratches on the screen, which overall looks great.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
Anyone that thinks this video is impressive is pretty gullible. I just took a bottle previously filled with cheap cooking wine from the trash and tried to scratch it with a screwdriver (pressing hard as I could) and couldn't. Depending on the degree of steel tempering, the steel is not even as hard as untreated glass, much less any type of treated glass.

The ball drop tests on the Corning website (on a 1mm thickness of GG) is much more impressive.
[G2 and Desire Z General] bled82:
Lmao I tried to scratch it the best I could with a hardened screw driver it didn't scratch so good enough for me .
[G2 and Desire Z General] epolaris:
The G2 is listed on the Corning website. So I want to think that its used on it. Here is the link: http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/products-with-gorilla/htc

So... Yes..

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbexpress:
I love the Vibrant. Most things work fabulously, however, I'm on my 3rd one (for completely different and unrelated reasons), and this issue just won't go away. It's ironic, all of the whiz-bang functions work flawlessly, but the issues with the basic functioning as a PHONE are getting old. When I'm on the road, more times than not I will be in the middle of a call, and it will plain drop. I NEVER had a call drop with the trusty dusty G1 for almost 2 years. I may have narrowed it down to one of 3 things, but they are not consistent: 1) If I have rebooted and forget to turn off the "auto update of time" function, and it does it's thing, it drops then. If I get another call while I'm on a call, it will do it then. If I'm using Google Voice, it seems to happen even more frequently. The other annoying thing is that every day, at least several times a day, I will try to make or answer a call and the Bluetooth will have plain disconnected randomly. I have Jabra JX10's for both home & the car. Is there anyone else who has had these issues, and have any insight as to what may be causing them? It did both when I had just gotten each, so I can't see that it's the ROM, kernel or lagfix. I've asked this before, and I hate to use the "F" (Froyo) word, but if it comes, will it include a new/stronger radio that maybe the issues will be solved? Oh yeah, one final thing, and this may be solely Google Voice related, but often when a call drops or fails to connect, if I try to make another, I hear an ear piercing ridiculous static sound until I reboot. Someone please tell me that I am not the only one who has ever had these issues and that my phone is possessed by aliens. TIA...

Hi im a newbee, i wanted to update my mini to 2.1 firmware, so i tried following a tutorial, but realized that it was ment for e10i half-way, luckly i didn't go "all the way" and update, but i did rewrite my build.prop with the e10i one, so i started looking for a e10a build.prop, but nobody uploads it, so i am asking if anyone can upload a backup of this file from an e10a , cause i think other people are searching it to, also, if nobody uploads it, if any developer knows if there is a way to modify the build.prop of e10i to turn it to an e10a build.prop, cause i looked through it, and many things looked prety generic like:

Install Error

Hi,

I followed a tutorial to debrand my x10 mini and I used that build.prop sent by JoNaTaZ.

Now I have this:

- Customization Version: 1237-9293_R8A

- "Número da compilação": 1.2.A.1.174

Does that mean that my phone is already debranded?

So, why when I try to update by Sony Ericsson PC Companion appears a install error saying that is not possible to install or start the update???

Thanks

Caro amigo, o DEBRAND é para desvincular o software do celular do aparelho com a operadora de celular somente! Se seu celular for bloqueado, esse método, não vai desbloqueá-lo! Você tem que alterar o arquivo /system/build.prop e reiniciar o aparelho! Depois use o Sony Ericsson Update Service para reinstalar (reparar) o software!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Joe406:
Why doesn't Windows Mobile do something about their crappy apps? I am tired of iPhone users having more ability than I do. They have an app for everything! Am I looking in the wrong places? The iPhone has a nice Speedtest.net app and we have a plain looking pocketspeedtest app that doesn't seem very accurate. I refuse to get an iPhone. Are Android phones any better?

Which apps are you looking for? Need a lightsaber app or a fart app? Just wait for WP7... :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
MS has moved on from WM6, and Windows Phone 7 is completely redone from the ground up, so apps for WP7 will not be compatible with previous versions. That, and the WM customer base is shrinking rapidly due to Apple and Android. Developers know this, and have mostly abandoned WM6.

WP7 comes out this month, with big $$$ backing from MS. They seem to have the serious intention of competing on the smartphone OS market. So the app situation may improve, but it will take some time. And you will have to buy a new WP7 phone to take advantage of this.

Android is doing well in the app department, with over 100,000 apps versus Apple's 300,000+. At that point, the numbers don't matter that much. Android has almost mostly the same useful/good apps as Apple. Apple just has lots of apps that are just clones/ripoffs of each other. Right now, I'd say Android is the place to be, since its customizability is in the spirit of WM, and it has strong developer support. Either that, or wait to see how WP7 does.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cajunflavoredbob:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Joe406:
If they abandon everything they will not keep customers. iPhone's don't obsolete stuff. They are adding stuff. Same with Android. Seems to me you wouldn't leave people out in the cold if you intend to keep people buying your phones. This is my last Windows Mobile Phone. I will move on to Android from here.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
That's BS, Apple does obsolete stuff. iOS4 is only for the iPhone 3G and later, so they just obsoleted the 1st Gen iPhone from the newest version of the OS. And they are going to have to continue to do that sort of thing in order to keep the platform current. In fact, Apple is much more insidious about obsoleting things due to reasons that have nothing to do with technology. Updated versions of the iOS break accessories as simple as chargers and speaker docks for the sole reason that a few 3rd party manufacturers haven't paid the licensing fee/blackmail to Apple.

Android is too new to obsolete things. But they will have to at some point as well. You have to obsolete things in the tech world, otherwise you will be stuck running outdated software. The underlying code for all WM versions up to WM6.5 is based on the 10 year old Windows CE, with a clown makeup job to make it look nicer. Its long past time to move on.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] KeRmiT80:
what i usually do is:

using 7zip extract the files you need to theme,

use your creativity :D

create the image and save.

if you have any *.9.png to modify you need 2 more steps to patch them to resize correctly on the screen.

you need to use draw9patch to fix which parts of the image will stretch/resize on screen

save and you get the 9.png

after that you need another software to fix it and make it usable, i use xultimate-d9pc.

once done simply replace in the *.apk the edited files and you have it themed.

to push into the phone the easiest way for me is replace with rootexplorer and restart the phone. eventually clean cache and dalvik cache partition if does not work at once.

You will not find what you're looking for. If such a download existed (I don't know, I haven't looked), you would need to root to apply it. The only way you'll get the new Sense without rooting is if/when HTC and Sprint release an approved update that contains it. I think it's likely they will, as this is still a flagship phone. Maybe as a part of a Gingerbread update. But I'm sure it's still a few months away.

Until then, if it were to be ported to the Evo by the folks here, you'd need to root.
