[myTouch 4G General] Christopher3712:
Unfortunately, the GPL is kind of gray when it comes to when source code has to be released. Manufacturer's usually release it in a matter of weeks, sometimes days to keep the open source community happy. However, there are times where they'll hold the code back for reason's unknown. Dell caught a lot of hell for this when holding back the source code for the streak, because it was specifically requested and they denied the request. With HTC, it looks like they waited about a month before releasing source code for the G2. I'd say that's a pretty good indication of when we'll see the MT4G source code.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adbirdie:
The logical answer is that its the radio, just find the newest one, and install via recovery.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Just to add, make sure you flash a radio version that is compatible with Froyo (i.e 5.xx.xx.xx), and not an Eclair radio rom.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mazik83:
Been trying to find a new radio but I can only find this one (thread = 698721 - cant post link) would this be to old or is it the newest?

Hi Mazik83, could you please elaborate how did you manage to resolve this issue? Because I am also having the exact same problem. Whenever I flash a Senseless ROM, I am unable to turn on my WiFi. I have tried flashing radio after the ROM but no help. I would really appreciate if you could give some details on how you solved the problem. :)

So i flashed to the froyo beta, had random reboots, and gps issues, so i odin'd back to 2.1....All is well, except my auto rotate is F'd. I am using launcher pro...enabled auto rotate, but it wont rotate until i open slide the phone open. When i close it, i get a blink of the screen, but it stays rotated....only way to get it back to normal, is lock phone, unlock.

Iirc, the option for 270 rotate is in your build.prop in 2.1 but it's not used in 2.2. There should be an entry for "270 rotate= true" in order for it to work. Verify that it's there and let us know...

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neuro_99:
Hi,

I'm decided to flash the new version of LeeDroid, and also upgraded to a faster sd card.

I backed up my apps + data with TB, but when it comes to batch restoring them, the progress bar comes up and goes after a short while, not appearing to restore any apps.

I've tried:

rebooting

updating busybox

changing app processing mode to indirect

and finally gave up with TB, so I found the following instructions after much google searching which seemed to be the most promising:

adb shell

# cd /

# cp /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/*.gz /data/apps

# gzip -d *.gz

# rm *.gz

# cd /

# tar -zxvf /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/*.tar.gz

but have had some problems with this, I am using ubuntu netbook remix, which I am quite new to.

I managed to copy all *.gz files to /data/apps OK

I think the next step didnt work first time I tried it but then I did "cd /data/app" and it worked, which is what I thought the original command was getting at.

I was then able to rm *.gz OK

the last step is proving more problematic, I keep getting the error:

"not found in archive"

I appeared to get past it by: echo /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/*.tar.gz | xargs -n 1 tar -zxvf

but in the end I am still back where I started, even after rebooting the apps dont show up.

please help, I have around 200 apps, and it isnt feasible to restore them one by one, although I have spent an agonising amount of time trying to get them back

all I have in my /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/ is: a ".properties" and ".tar.gz" file for each app, and some also have a ".gz" file

edit:

I think that this is actually where the problem lies. As I currently understand it, the .gz files are for the .apk, and the .tar.gz files are for the application-associated data.

well the fact that there are far more .tar.gz files than .gz files, appears to show that not all of the apps were backed up in the first place, which is weird, seeing as the application-associated data is there for all of them.

I suppose the next step to do is restore nandroid and try to backup again

any help would be greatly appreciated
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neuro_99:
well in the end it was a bad backup, resolved when updated to latest version

I bought one of these for my MyTouch3G last year, and thought it was the BEST case I've ever had for a phone. I'm desperately wanting one for my MT4G, but haven't found one anywhere online yet. Anyone know where we can get these? I bought mine on eBay for $4.99 and free shipping from Hong Kong, and I got it in less than 2 weeks.

Here's a link to a current eBay auction for the MT3G version so you can see what I'm talking about...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...0&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:US:1123#ht_5478wt_876
[myTouch 4G Accessories] boroarke:
I agree, those are the best cases I've used. Had one for my original MyTouch and loved it. Hopefully they will get in gear and make them for the 4G now.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] lghorn:
That's like the TPU cases others have mentioned, and been on the lookout for on eBay.

I like how they're flexible, but not plain silicon, and maintain the profile of the phone as much as possible.

I gotta pick up something pretty soon. I'd consider just a Phantom Skinz, but with a 3 year old who loves Angry Birds running around the house I need something that offers some drop protection.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] monnietron:
Haha I have that problem too. Talking Tom too :rolleyes: ;)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
i had been looking for these aswell. i bought one for my curve last yr from this guy. clicked this post in hopes to find that you had found them lol. i sent the seller an email asking about these for the 4g. ill check back in if/when he responds
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Thumper1226:
How well does that case absorb a shock if the phone is dropped? I really like how its molded really well to the body-lines of the phone and doesnt look thick. Let us know asap when you do find out if they sell them yet! Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
it does pretty good Thumper. when i had it on my bb i had no issued with it when i dropped it. and i dropped it all the time.

the seller just emailed me back and responded saying:

Seller has responded to your question about this item

Do not respond to the sender if this message requests that you complete the transaction outside of eBay. This type of offer is against eBay policy, may be fraudulent, and is not covered by buyer protection programs. Learn More.

Dear cw54o,

we will be getting these shortly in the next 1-2

weeks

[myTouch 4G Accessories] dustrho:
That's awesome news about him getting these cases in the next 1-2 weeks. I'm on my second T-Mo case, and I really haven't been too thrilled with them. Way too much money IMO for cases like these, and I'm considering returning/exchanging my newest one (soft rubber sleeve with white plastic backing) because the rubber attracts WAY TOO much dust.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] dustrho:
These cases are STILL not available anywhere yet. Total BS! :mad:
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
yeah i knw, i just checked his ebay store and nothing:mad:
[myTouch 4G Accessories] dustrho:
There's Epik cases on eBay for the HTC HD7, didn't that come out the same day or about the same timeframe as our MT4G? If so, why hasn't there been an Epik case made yet for our phone?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
i have no clue, but on a side note tmble has these type of cases at their stores. im tempted to get 2 of them. they have a sale going on 2accessories will land u 20% off and 3 will get u 30% off, but their 20 a peice....
[myTouch 4G Accessories] dustrho:
T-Mobile does not carry the Epik branded cases at their stores. They don't have any cases that even come close to the Epik brand.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
they arent 'epik' cases BUT they are TPU cases, which is exactly what the epik cases are. they have them for several phones including the mytouch 4g. if i go back ill take a pic and show you. if it werent for the price difference i would have gotten it. but yeah im pretty sure a youtube search would confirm it.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] daewond3r:
DCMugen88 posted black and clear cases today. I got black :)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:

enjoy :D

Thanks for the link. Ill be ordering a few. Great prices! i was close to ordering some case on amazon for 24.99 + shipping.

Sucks that these won't be arriving until after xmas though.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Lakeshow423:
Nice! Do you think the epik cases will still fit if you have the CF Chromatics on? My little girl puts a beating on my phone while playing with talking Tom :p . Ordered anyway, you cant go wrong with the price! Thanks for the heads up fellas!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
is that like some kinda zagg-like/phantom skin protector? if so YES these cases will fit just fine over that. it shouldnt disrupt anything.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] dustrho:
Are these the bendable gel cases they had for the MT3G? It doesn't really specify that anywhere on his auctions, and the pictures make it look more like a hard plastic or hard gel/plastic case.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
yeah these are the bendy/flexible ones

[myTouch 4G Accessories] Layd Dly:
Yup they have all the colors today. Black, Smoke, Clear, Red, Blue, & Purple.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
ok, thanks. guess ill order 2more tonight when i get to work. I'm not a fan if purple or red tho. . .

ill figure something out

-chantay
[myTouch 4G Accessories] laztpn0i:
Got the black smoke color. Do these cases have a little bit of transparency in them? I ask because I actually like the design of the battery cover. Also , hopefully these don' have the red sticker on the back like the Nexus 1 did.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
yes they have transparency to them. as far as a sticker i doubt they will. ive never seen said sticker so i cant be to sure. but i can tell u the one i had on my BB was sticker free . . .
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
i picked up the BLACK and BLUE, thanks for the heads up :)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] chrisjs81:
Cool just ordered the smoke black myself. If I end up not liking it, it was only $3.50. :)

Now if only the realook protectors would come back in stock...
[myTouch 4G Accessories] daewond3r:
I got the smoke on the way and I just ordered the jet black and red. Variety is the spice of life!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] igotdatglow:
thanks for the updates guys

Just ordered 5 (wife has one too)

2 clear

1 smoke

1 jet black

1 purple

Can't wait! Cuz I can feel a drop coming
[myTouch 4G Accessories] vw671:
Anyone get these in their hands yet? Can't wait for a review!!!

Ordered a black one on Wednesday. It should come next week. :)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
next WEEK? im jealous:(
[myTouch 4G Accessories] xderekaustinx:
Guessing he paid the $20 for expedited shipping...thought about it, but just couldn't justify it, especially from Hong Kong over the holidays. Look forward to the pictures/review though
[myTouch 4G Accessories] naturalista:
I heard good things about TPU cases, so I bought the smoke and clear cases, hoping to still be able to see the red of my phone through them. Can't wait till they get here.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
ohhhh i didnt even see that option. 20bucks is alot anyway, i would have passed up on that offer.

@naturalista im hoping the same thing. i have the white one. i knw jet black will probably cancel out my color but the smoke, blue and clear (ofcourse) shouldnt have a problem with that
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ArcticWolf91:
I actually I just paid $2 for the faster shipping. It said it should come sometime next week. I'll just have to wait and see.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] xderekaustinx:
Right on. I did that shipping on my original order as well (ordered the clear one first day of release & then the jet black and blue 2 days later)...hope they're worth the wait
[myTouch 4G Accessories] dustrho:
Got mine ordered a few days ago, and can't wait to get it. Anyone looking to buy the white/gray Flex T-Mobile case off me? That is, if this Epik case turns out to be as good as the one I had for MT3G.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] rosebud1:
how much you want?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] dustrho:
Not sure because I haven't thought much about it, plus I'll only sell it if I have my doubts about the Epik case.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] jbg1:
i ordered one, they havnt took the payment out of my bank yet though?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] dustrho:
If you paid with PayPal that utilizes your bank account (versus an actual credit card), it takes time for the payment to clear. It'll happen, you just have to be patient.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] jbg1:
yeah i used my bank to pay...i havnt bought anything with paypal in a while im used to just selling lol

[myTouch 4G Accessories] ArcticWolf91:
I was hoping the case would come in today. Maybe tomorrow!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] agentaaron:
When did you order? did you upgrade the shipping?...the only reason I ask is that I have ordered from this seller before and shipping usually takes a good 6 weeks (slow boat from hong kong). I ordered both the clear and the smoke for my MT4G, but I am certainly not going to hold my breath till they come in :p
[myTouch 4G Accessories] naturalista:
My cases arrived today.

I bought the clear and the smoke black. I put the clear on because it allowed the red of my phone to show through best. The smoke is more opaque then expected, but still has some see-thru to it.

I've never owned a TPU case before so I am not sure what to compare it to, but I will say that I really like this material over regular silicone cases already. I never was a fan of hard cases. It fits very snug and had to press a little to get it completely in - not much though. It still may loosen over time if one is a person who regularly removes the case.

The coverage is right up to where the silver bezel meets the screen, not a mm more. So a good screen protector that covers the entire screen on the edges is definitely needed if you want total protection.

It feels very smooth in my hands, but not slick to where I could drop it. The grip factor could still be a little better, but it will do for sure. This case does not take away from the form factor of the phone and doesn't add much thickness at all. Your phone will still feel relatively similar in weight in your hands as well.

Cut-outs for the camera, flash, speaker, mic, headphones, usb, and docking pins are all accurate. For the camera button, volume, and power button, they are covered, but its easy to manipulate these buttons.

I'm pleased with the purchase and will probably get another clear on slow delivery since I don't have to worry about it now.

I recommend the purchase, especially if anyone has been going crazy trying to get something better than the silicone cases and is leery of the hard cases. I have to thank my friend for letting me know about these cases.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ArcticWolf91:
I ordered last week. I paid extra for the faster shipping, but not the fastest shipping, the one beneath that. I've ordered from Hong Kong before and it hasn't taken that long so I'm not expecting it to take very long. Oh and it didn't come today. :p
[myTouch 4G Accessories] vw671:
PICS!!!! LOT OF PICS PLEASE:)

How are the seems? Are they rough or smooth? Also how flexible is the TPU? Some of the cheaper ones are a bit stiffer then the quality stuff.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] QUEDRO:
Yeah pics would be great. I ordered a clear one too since I have already a Phantom Skin applied.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] daewond3r:
naturalista: Pics please! :D

Also, did you get the really fast shipping or just the one-step-above-free shipping? When I ordered my smoke case I opted for the $2 shipped upgrade. It said it would arrive between the 15th and the 22nd. I was hoping I might get it today but I was wasn't holding my breath.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] naturalista:
I took some pics just now, but won't be able to upload them until a little later.

I paid for the expedited shipping because when I did the math, it was worth it to me. Walk into any store now and cases are $20-$35 for just one cheapy silicone case. Sure there's the eBay sellers, but I still wasn't getting what I wanted. And I don't know anyone who has TPU cases for the MT4G right now. So getting 2 for $25 was worth it to me.

The seams are ok. You can see them. They don't cut your hand. They are raised just enough to feel them. In one spot, you can see where the seams came together and it looks a little ugly there, but its at the bottom of the case for me and not bad.

I'll upload as soon as I can.

EDIT: I forgot... on the flexibility, its definitely there. I would need to see other TPU cases in order to give a best comparison. Off of my own pickiness of taste, I would say that the quality could probably be better, as I think about the work of the seams. Also, closely inspecting the cutouts, not all of the edges are smooth either. So this one may be decent quality that could have been better. But again, I am not a TPU expert.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] dorqus:
I just ordered a "smoke black" for my Black MyTouch 4g tonight, paid the extra $1.94 for "quicker" shipping, supposedly will be here between December 23rd and 30th. I got the one with the screen protector for $3.99. Hopefully it will be good, I was going to get a case that I could clip onto my belt, but it's more practical to have it in my pocket most of the time. Hopefully I'll like it!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
thanks naturalista for the review. i seen somewhere u mentioned it may losen over time...assuming these mt4g cases are as good if not better than when i ordered them for my bb curve last yr, i think they will last for a while. i had several cases back then and i changed them frequently and they never seem to stretch or lose form. also i was wondering did yours come with a screen guard? i seen that he had several with different kinds of guards (super clear, mirror etc)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] naturalista:
Pics...

Here are the best pics. I was limited to 4 uploads sorry. Hopefully these give a good idea of what the skin looks like and how it will fit. I may try to take a pic or 2 of the smoke color as well, but I really like that the clear is so clear.

cw54, I didn't buy the pack that included the screen protector. I already have a Realook SP on the phone already. It may be visible in a couple of the pics, but if not, its on there. It is very clear, but it picks up fingerprints like crazy. I still like it though.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] .cw54o:
okay cool, i cant see it but its no biggie. are the volume rockers easy to use with the case on?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] naturalista:
Volume is fine. I have more difficulty when powering the phone off since you have to hold it down for a bit - I kind of don't like the feel of holding it down there. If I am simple doing a quick press to turn the screen off, its fine.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] daewond3r:
Nice pics naturalista! Thanks for sharing. Really excited for the 3 cases I have on the way!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] crxtasi:
Thanks for posting up pics naturalista. That clear would look sexy on a white mt4g going to order mine soon!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Lakeshow423:
Thanks for the oics, bro! I can't wait, I think the smoke is gonna look good over the CF Chromatics that I have on!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] vw671:
Thanks for the pics. looks decent enough for $5 just ordered a smoke one. I wished the dock pins were covered though...especially since nothing currently uses it and even if it did it probably wouldn't reach with the case on anyway.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] pseudoswede:
I was hoping Degasis.net would be stocking these cases so I could order from someone based in the US. Unfortunately, that will not be happening...
[myTouch 4G Accessories] dustrho:
Thanks for sharing pics of this case. I can't wait to get it.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Lakeshow423:
Just got mines today fellas! I paid $1.92 extra for the one level up shipping and they shipped on the 9th and got it today! All I could say is wow! Sweet case that hugs the phone nice! I have the CF Chromatics on with the smoke case and you can see the cf skin right through it! The one I got has no rough edges, everything is smooth. I Left my DSLR at my friends house, I wish I coulda posted pics :( ! I doubt you guys will be dissapointed, I'd pay $20 for this case alone but I got 2 of them for $9.50 shipped LOL!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] daewond3r:
I assume you're in LA by your sn, so hopefully mine is waiting for me at home! It shipped on the 8th with the same shipping method.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] YseanY:
me too! i get off in 2hrs, hopefully mines waiting for me as well! Though i did wish i ordered a day later as i wanted the jet black, but it was not available when i ordered
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ArcticWolf91:
I also ordered on the 8th and also paid the extra $1.92 for shipping. Sadly my mailbox is empty. Its raining so I don't know if the mailman is late because of that but its already pretty late and still nothing...
