I used Best Skins Ever on my G1 when I got it; still looks like the day I put it on (only covered the face, not the whole body) aside from a small spot on the screen edge where I would push with my thumbs to slide it open. Held up like a champ for over 2 years!

Here's the HTC section of their site: http://www.bestskinsever.com/catalogsearch/advanced/result/?manufacturer[]=19
[myTouch 4G Accessories] gaarry:
Pretty sure Zagg and GA are pretty much the same exact thing.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Jon C:
So I just had mine applied, and it's obviously still drying. But, I have to say...

This looks like garbage-ass, in any amount of light. :mad:

The material has all kinds of bumps and imperfections on the surface that show up in the slightest amount of light. They didn't have the kits, so the dude did a notoriously bad job on a custom cut. There are pen marks all over the window tint material, and the cuts are not even, so the entire surface of the phone is not covered. Brilliant.

Dude rush-jobbed it in like 5 minutes, and was busy douching it up with a bunch of other customers, or else I would've just told him to re-do it.

It strikes me that standing up at a mall kiosk is probably not the best place to perform delicate work on smartphones.

Anyway, he told me the custom-cut kits for the myTouch 4G come next week, and then I can get my replacement for free. I plan on doing that. I asked him multiple times about that 'for free' thing, and he assured me that they don't charge for custom cuts while you wait for the kit.

So, we'll see. As it dries, it looks like someone rubbed oil all over the glass. That will change as the liquid evaporates, but to say that the material is 'crystal clear' (as they do) is a bit disingenuous.

:rolleyes:

The ****ty T-Mobile skins don't cover the whole front of the phone, and they scratch easily. They are super over-priced. That said, at least they are smooth as glass. Ghost Armor - at least when custom-cut by some dingus - looks like a bad window tinting job when the screen isn't on.

Update:

I don't think the dude properly lubricated the squeegee, nor did he clean or watch out for debris. My screen has a bunch of bubbles, and some spots look like they were stabbed with a ballpoint pen. Lame.

Besides the amateur hour rush job, I dislike how rubberized the screen becomes. If ever there were multitouch games, I could easily see them being unplayable, due to finger friction. But I guess that's the nature of the beast.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] mr_skot:
Zagg protectors take a little bit of getting used to.

When you get the temp one from the kiosk they will put the fitted one on for free when it comes in.

I remember getting one on my Nokia N900. After it was put on, it was sticky feeling, had bubbles, and also had this "orange peel" type of look.

But after 48 hours the screen protector seemed to tighten up, the bubbles disappeared, and it had a nice feel. After about a week it lost that "thick" feeling.

Stick with it and give it some time, you might be surprised.

Or you might totally hate it and pull it off after 5 days like my wife did when she got one.

does anyone have a the stock android keyboard working on here? if not shouldnt be too hard to port over but i wanted to check first... im just not a big fan of swype mostly cus where the #'s are :/
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c_licious:
Not sure of this is helpful but I find smart keyboard pro (market) far superior to the stock keyboard although it still looks like stock.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pack:
the only reason i said stock is because of the voice input option, im not sure if the keyboards in the market have those but ill def check this one out thanks
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFeens:
I hope this gets figured out :D
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elfabaa:
You can turn swype off by changing the input mode. Just go into a spot where you can enter a message, do a long press, and then click on the input button. Its not the same keyboard as on the G2, but I prefer it to the swype keyboard.

I have the smart keyboard pro app and have it turned off. Mine makes me hit done then send when trying to send a message, and I'd rather not have the extra keystroke.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jon C:
Sorry for not knowing: but is there a reason it doesn't work when you simply side-load the stock 2.2 keyboard? Appmonster shows that it installed, but I cannot load the keyboard at all.

Any ideas?

When I upgraded to 2.4 most of my apps, backed up by TiB, would not restore. The data was there, but not the app
[Captivate General] Shovelhead84:
I think this is one of the glitches that happens due to incorrect phone ID on some of the Cog roms. I could be wrong I would try a search for posts regarding the ID.

Just so you guys know, you CAN flash the G2 hboot and run the g2 stock rom. I am not gonna tell you all how in case you brick your phones but it does work i am running the tmobile rom on my DZ right now via g2 hboot and a zip i found on the g2 forum.

[G2 and Desire Z General] fastludeh22:
I knew it would work. Good job being the first brave soul to test it.

In winmo 6.1, I can long press any point of text and swipe to high light the whole block of text for copy/delete.

In winmo 6.5, I can still do that but I noticed that i have to press for a much longer peroid before swiping otherwise it will not work. In 6.1, the press/hold duration is just nice but not so for 6.5. Is there any registry setting that can be edited to set the hold duration?

hi guys,

most of you probably know that hd2 android users suffer from internet connection that goes off after some time. my question is, does this happen to everyone? what are the factors that determine this? rom? radio? kernel? location? is there any combination of those things that's free from internet problem? thanks.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] JanssoN:
You're right, most of us suffer of that issue. But there are combos without or with very less drops like mine. It seems that ChuckyROMs and mattc 1.8 work together very good. I had only one drop since the last 3 days. There's also the possibility with changin your ril.wrapper, but that does not seem to work for everyone.

As others said, just be patient. I think it will be solved the next few weeks or months. The devs are working veeery hard to get those things done. ;)

[Windows Phone 7 General] Meengla:

[As I posted at PocketNow.com]

I used Samsung Focus. This post is such a life saver! My only gripe against Windows Phone 7 was lack of tethering (I rarely used copy/paste in Win Mo 6.5 and I can live without 3rd party multi-tasking for a while at least). I was spoiled by using WMWifiRouter to connect my netbook to the internet.

Now I can thanks to this hidden feature! I was just able to connect my netbook running Windows 7 Starter and I got Dial up Networking just fine (its been a LONG time since I had to see DUN!). My setup was slightly different: I could not see the Samsung Focus in the ‘adapters’ list and so I ran the DUN wizard and, voila!, I have broadband. I tested speed at Speakeasy.net: I am on east coast. Download speed at Los Angeles was 2.54 mbps. Download at Atlanta was 3.84 mbps. Pretty good!

Now I truly love my Samsung Focus!
[Windows Phone 7 General] schmoo:
Can anyone confirm if the LG and Samsung diagnostic app is the same or just similar?

I have a HTC and am curious if this app is a MS one or if it manufacturer dependent (hopfully MS as that would give HTC folks a better chance of seeing it soon!!!).

I am running stock sense on a rooted phone. I only rooted so I could tether and run adfree, and actually like stock sense very much. Is there a way to install the ota without ruining my phone?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thevoiceless:
I'm wondering this, too. I'm all stock, rooted with S-OFF, removed crapware. I'm running ClockworkMod 2.5.0.5 though, and I believe I've read that OTAs won't install if you're not running stock recovery. I'm kind of at a loss as to what to do now.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokeey:
Run the OTA

Reflash your recovery

Done. Re-rooted. OTA doesnt turn s-on.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thevoiceless:
Will the OTA install if I'm using ClockworkMod?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hybrid86:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hybrid86:
Um... why did you post in this thread? :confused:

And to make it stop, I found this in another thread:

Get your build.prop from your /system/ folder

edit it

put this line in, not add it but replace the line that starts like this ro.build.fingerprint=verizon_wwe/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Replace it with this
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon_wwe/inc/inc/inc:2.2/FRF91/264707:user/release-keys

Replace your build.prop and reboot. I did it by just using root explorer, copying it to the sdcard, editing on my PC, then copying it back to the /system/ folder then reboot. It might nag you once more upon reboot, but ignore and close it and it wont ask anymore.

Does ODEX vs DEODEX matter?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpiermarini:
I got a question regarding the link that Bob posted. in the step 13 where you need to Copy ClockWork Recovery 2.5.0.5 (PB31IMG).zip to just plain PB31IMG.ZIP on the SD root.

When I do that and boot into HBOOT nothing is happening and when i go to recovery it just shows a red triangle and exclamation point.

am i doing something wrong or what? i am S-OFF and the update installed smoothly, i didn't have any of those apps running and i didn't remove my crap ware so i didnt' have to restore that either.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldgary:
newbie question

What steps would be different if you were trying to do this on a Mac?

I rooted my Incredible using unrEVOked one click root to get wireless tether, that's all I have done. I would like the OTA, but still leery of doing this until I know what is different.

I'm reading all the posts trying to figure out what would be different. Can anyone help me.

Thanks in advance from a total newbie.

So I'm in the same boat as some. I removed (through titanium backup) all the crap-ware including FriendStream. Unfortunately, I can no longer reinstall the apps via titanium so I need to know how to get them back on the phone. When I try to run the update, I always get the error that it was aborted because of FriendStream odex blah blah blah. Help please!

Problem solved. I downloaded the new RUU which includes the November update and just went from there. Yeah, it wiped the phone and I had to reinstall everything but it was worth it.

I'm not sure if this has been posted before, but I thought this was pretty interesting! Its a home replacement for Android 2.0 and up. It makes your phone look like windows vista or windows 7. This is one of the most advanced Home Replacement apps I've seen! Apparently, it is from China but has an English version. The forum on the site is in Chinese. I've installed this on my Eris which I've got running CELB Froyo 3.6 which is Android 2.2.1

I am not responsible to what happens to your phone if you install this! Install at your own risk.

Here is the link to the site to download: http://www.joymms.com/english/

when it downloads, i click on it and it says "windows can't open this file"....why can't i get it?!
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Funnyface19:
You need to download a program that can extract .rar files find winrar online and you can download a 30 day free trial
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] swtkimmie:
ok, got it...thank you!

its extracted, now where on my sd card do i put it??

Sorry for being a pain in the a** lol and thanks for all the help!
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Funnyface19:
Anywhere you remember lol use Astro file manager or Linda file manager both of which are free on the android market and click on the .apk file and it'll let you install it

Hello,

I have a very large amount of folders in my work exchange email account.

When i scroll across in the default email app to find a folder, since going to froyo, it scrolls me back to "inbox" before i can find the folder im interested in.

If i scroll across and pick any folder in sight before it scrolls back, it will stick then from there scroll again pick a folder and scroll again i can eventually get where i want but in Eclair i could just scroll and scroll and scroll till i got where i wanted.

Has anyone else experienced this? I tried using the TouchDown app for mail instead and while i really like the way folders are presented the last time i used it it seemed to have issues syncing and the built in was up to date. To buy the license is a fairly pricey app, which i wouldnt mind paying for if i was sure it wasnt going to stop working every few days.

If anyone else has experienced this folder scroll back to inbox issue, or perhaps fixed it?

Cheers

[Android Software Development] kevke:
I am looking for a reverse thing to a sim-lock. I have a phone, which I would like to make sure of, that no other card can be used in it as mine- or a card that has the same pin as mine. I thought about a phone-lock for the sim-card. Once the cell is turned on, the cell enters the pin code without being noticed by me. I keep forgetting this damn number anyway. However, I don't want to miss the capability of the card being rpotected by its pin number, either when put in a different phone, or the functionality, that if someone wants to steal my phone, that it enters the preset pin number, therefore bricks the sim-card.

Basically this is what I want:

1. The phone enters a preset pin, without me or anyone else seeing it.

2. If another sim-card is installed, the card shall be bricked because the phone tries to enter the preset pin.

And last but not least: If someone has a sim-card that has no pin that is put into the phone, is it possible to deny the service the sim-card offers?
