[HTC Aria Accessories] Corporate Dog:
Shortly after picking up my HTC Aria back in June, I decided to go with a cheapie HD Mini flip case that I wrote about here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7258528#post7258528

I was quite prescient about the belt clip. Shortly after writing that post, the belt clip spring broke. I've been lugging my phone around sans clip, in the same case, ever since.

It's been a decent case for me. But one other slightly annoying aspect of it (in addition to the others I mentioned), was that wherever the case bordered the screen, it also tended to interfere with elements of the interface which were located along the edges of the screen.

I recently received an e-mail from 'cases.com' about their Black Friday sale (the coupon code MIGHT still be valid: blackfriday), so I thought I'd see if they had any new Aria cases.

That's when I discovered (and decided to order) the Piel Frama iMagnum flip case:

http://www.cases.com/pf493.htm

It just came today, and I suspect I'll be even happier with this case than I was the cheapie.

For starters, the entire screen of my Aria is exposed when the case is open, since the phone is held in (quite ably) by two stiff leather side-panels. While this may ultimately increase the possibility of damage should I ever drop the phone while using it, it also provides full access to the screen.

This design also avoids one of the other flaws of my old case: the sensor suite is no longer blocked.

When the case is closed, it adds a little more bulk to the phone than my old case did, but not nearly enough to make it a drawback. You can definitely tell the difference in quality between the two cases, with the Piel Frama case consisting of a much thicker (real) leather. Overall it just feels much more solid.

The belt clip itself also seems to have a better design than the clip on my old case did. The connector on the case is positioned a little higher, so the top of the case is level with the top of my belt when I'm wearing it (the old case tended to stick up an inch or two, digging into my hip whenever I sat down). And instead of a cheap spring, the mechanism in this clip is a single piece of flexible metal.

In the end I had to pay quite a bit more for a higher quality case. But I also suspect that this one will give me few problems down the road.

Regards,

Corporate Dog
[HTC Aria Accessories] 911jason:
Thank you for the review... quite pricey though!
[HTC Aria Accessories] Corporate Dog:
Yep. More than I wanted to spend, in fact.

But I was reaching the absolute edge of sanity with the case that I had. I actually went through two different clips with it (both broke). And I was starting to get sick of having to shift my phone in the case, whenever I wanted to type a 'P' (or any other letter that appears on the edges of the screen).

Regards,

Corporate Dog

Anyone out there in devsville planning on porting MIUI ROM to the mt4g?

Just figured I'd strike this topic, if it hasn't been brought up yet then let's kick up some dust..
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Master_sk3:
I sure hope so, it would definitely give us something new to use on our devices. I kinda like this rom from the Nexus. Now if only we can get the ball rolling on cyanogen 6 for the MT4G.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timbo1083:
Somebody behind the scenes is working on it. Should have a test build by the end of the week/weekend I would assume.

Wow, now an MIUI ROM for the MT4G would simply be amazing. I'm looking forward to this more so than CM6.1.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Infinite76:
Someone please port this over. I saw it running over top the latest cyanogen. And it was amazing.

Anyone know if the miui contact app can sync pics with Twitter accounts. Or does the contact app have favorites and stuff ?

Hi,

I've looked around and tried a number of different files. I tried the bugfix one. Everytime I install and load the rom I'm getting a FC every 5 seconds. Does anyone know of a fix for this or something I'm doing wrong?

Thank you very much,,
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RavenWulf:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SantinoInc:
Ok, so I flashed a Sprint VM apk when I first started using CM6.1 RC1 and it worked fine. Today after I flashed RC2 I assumed that if I flashed that same Sprint VM apk it would work fine. The app installed but none of my voicemails are going through. Does anyone have any idea whats up?

Another unrelated problem: My PC is having trouble recognizing my EVO. When I try to install the driver automatically it cannot be completed. Any ideas on that one?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SantinoInc:
Well I had it working fine on RC1. When I upgraded to RC2 it just wouldn't work. So annoyed. I think the problem may lie in the fact that between upgrading to RC2 I went back to stock to update the PRI and Profile. Hope that didn't **** stuff up somehow

The email app on the dekstop - what is it and where can I get it?

Thx.
[Android Apps and Games] anika200:
Check out appventive, executive assistant. Icon only Widget setting.
[Android Apps and Games] Sozage:
I already have Executive Assistant. I think the app in the image is something else.

I don't like EA cause it uses polling and not push (which hotmail finally supports).
[Android Apps and Games] okcnyyfan:
It looks like the default email app icon with ADW Notifier and ADW Launcher. With ADW Launcher and Notifier it will put a number on the apps where you have notifications.
[Android Apps and Games] hush66:
I think it's SMS Unread Count.

[Android Apps and Games] Sozage:
Noooo :( I wanted it to be for hotmail.
[Android Apps and Games] okcnyyfan:
If you can load hotmail into the defaul email, ADW Notifier will put the unread count on the email icon.
[Android Apps and Games] ekie84:
It definately adw launcher and adw notifier
[Android Apps and Games] Sozage:
You sure about this?!
[Android Apps and Games] brucemcl:
The icon is the stock icon for the Email program that comes with Froyo on my phone. You need a Hotmail Plus account, with POP mail, to use that program. I can't make the unread number appear on my phone, so I'm guessing that there is an add-on that will show the number, as others have said.
[Android Apps and Games] EndlessDissent:
Looks like the stock email icon to me. But I'm more curious about what the icon/widget in the top left corner is. Show Previous what?
[Android Apps and Games] dmcpres:
If you're talking about the written time, it' called "Tajm". Pretty cool little widget.

[Android Apps and Games] rTiGd2:
Left <--- ---> Right

Just as you seem to have forgotten :P
[Android Apps and Games] wwwhershcom:
it is ADW Launcher w/ ADW notifier. Search in the market for these. It is not a widget, it is the standard email app on Froyo. ADW notifier tells you how many unread messages/notifications from each app, using the bubble in the corner.

That is why its also on the gmail, and messaging app.
[Android Apps and Games] andresrivas:
LauncherPro comes with this by default, counts sms, mail, gmail and missing calls
[Android Apps and Games] Sozage:
Does it count email or just gmail??
[Android Apps and Games] thedesolatesoul:
It can do hotmail too without needing a plus account. I use the default email app to pop hotmail.

There is a thread somewhere for this, but in short u need to set up an exchange account with the server being m.hotmail.com

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mytouchguy:
so i tend to use my slide for tethering purposes, as for i am never home there is no sense in paying another 40$ for home internet ontop of already paying 90$ that i am for my phone espically if ill never be home to use it

now tmobile speeds are great on average ill hit 4.2 or higher mbps and its quite lovely.... but tmobile has instilled there new tethering jive for the extra 15$ a month.... now am i the only one that thinks its absoultly stupid to have to yet pay 15$ EXTRA just to use what im already paying 90 a month for........ might just be me

but anyways, so i recently hit their sill 5gb max, and well needless to say they have nothing but KILLLED my speeds, and i mean KILLED em.... my best speed these last few days has been measly .8mbps.... call me stupid.. but i think thats highly pathetic on tmobiles part to pull that kinda crap

my question is.... is there a way to block what im doing or cover it up in some manner so that in therory, tmobile wont be nazi's to say the least about it, and kill my speeds.

i mean its patetic when i try to reinstall an app i lost and it download so slow, that i leave it running over nigt while i sleep and it finishes an hour before i wake up

anyone else have this issue with tmobile as well.... id love to hear some thoughts

thanks
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Well there's a way to mask the UA (user agent) ID on your browser. That would work. Basically when they allow you to browse the web, their servers check to see what browser you're using in order to determine certain settings, and of course, whether or not you're tethering. This will prevent them from knowing that thus, no $15 charge. It won't prevent throttling though, in fact you may get throttled quicker since you'll hit 5GB a lot quicker.

Just google how to change the user agent ID of your browser and you'll figure it out. I'm not sure but I think it may cause issues when you get on certain websites but that should be minimal.

Got a message about a new firmware update, 25 Nov. Is this the same update that was pushed out at the beginning of the month?

TIA
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
This has been posted and answered plenty of times over the last few months. Not to be mean but there is a search button.

Anyway, the answer is yes.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearcat668:
I did search

Well, not to be mean, but I am quite aware that an OTA update had been discussed earlier in the month, as I said in the op. But, I hadn't seen anything lately, and that's why I asked if this was the same one. Obviously I knew there had been one earlier.

I have probably read all the posts in this forum. I know how to use the search, and I study all available resources before I ask a question. I do research for a living. So please don't be so quick to assume a poster is lazy.

I do cleanup work on other boards to try to provide correction to people who are too lazy to look for the answers, and I deal with them every day at work. So I'm more than a bit sensitive on this issue.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Hmm...

Fair enough:)

Hope I didn't come off sounding like an a$$. It was one of those weeks with a lot of new threads about simple things that have stickies on here.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearcat668:
I hear you. I was testy for about the same reason.

So, speaking of OTA updates, when Froyo finally is released for the Slide, will having a rooted phone prevent the update? Will we all need to return to unrooted stock?

Me, I'm going to wait until folks who know what they are doing have a chance to dig into the ROM and make it better.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
Technically, yes, that is what you'd have to do, at least I'm fairly sure, but I'm sure someone, probably chiefzreloaded, will release the rooted version of it fairly quickly. I'll just wait for that, rather than spend time doing it myself.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dan138zig:
So I recorded some videos last night for the first time with hd2 android and i noticed that the sound quality is poorer. Maybe because the format is 3gp instead of mp4 like in winmo. Is this the way with all android builds or is there any build with a good video recording? Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
I don't really know, but 720p recording is almost ready for Android so just hang on, I suppose the audio quality will be higher too.

You might wanna check your camera settings though, with some builds you can change the recording quality..

My Captivate days are fuzzy (July was a long time ago), but you can edit db file on the device to allow it, once you're rooted. Go dig around in the Captivate forums for more info, pretty sure that will apply to the AT&T Tab as well.
[Galaxy Tab General] mach330:
i'm running out of internal memory on my tab (sprint). i haven't installed a lot of apps. i have more apps on my droid incredible so not sure how i filled up the 2G. maybe it's coincidence but it started going low when i installed clockwork mod. i verified that my backup for clockwork mod is in the sd card so that's not it. any other places i can start to look internally? i barely have 10 or so apps in here.
[Galaxy Tab General] Ice dream angel:
Maybe check if files and pictures are going on your sd card and not the internal memory.

Try moving some apps to sd card and see if anything changes.
[Galaxy Tab General] mach330:
yeah, i moved all the apps that possible to move to the sd card. i've taken only 3 pictures. i still only have 28M left. i guess it's time to check all the folders.
[Galaxy Tab General] Croak:
I'm willing to bet that as far as Clockwork is concerned, that 2GB internal storage is seen as your SD card, and the MicroSD card is sdext, which Clockwork probably isn't aware of.

That's the way it works on non-CDMA Galaxy devices (though all those have like, useful amounts of internal storage so it's not really an issue like it is on the crippled Verizon/Sprint versions).
[Galaxy Tab General] mach330:
I think I found the culprit. There's a file called /data/local/tsprsp . Wtf is this file? Can I delete it?
[Galaxy Tab General] mach330:
Just deleted that file and it's fine now. Saw it in another post.thx
[Galaxy Tab General] slopokdave:
How big was the file?
[Galaxy Tab General] Archangel:
I installed that version of clockwork mod and yeah my memory said it was full so i did a factory reset and delete it and all is fine now,,,something is wrong obliviously with that version and not worth installing until it is fixed,,, looks like it can cause def problems if we fool around with it,,,nothing against then mods.

around 1.7Gb !!!

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ciervo5389:
For those like me who wanted CM6 mms.apk instead of the TW mms.apk

1. Download the attached file

2. Use either Root Explorer or Terminal Emulator.

3. Place the "mms.apk" on the root of your sdcard

For Root Explorer

1. Go to /system/app

2. Rename current Mms.apk to Mms.apkbak (Example)

3. Go to /sdcard

4. Press and long hold "mms.apk"

5. Select "Copy"

6. Go to /system/app

7. Select "Paste"

8. Enjoy

For Terminal Emulator

Put the attached file below on the root of your sd and installed using Terminal Emulator with these commands

su

mount -o remount rw /system

rm /system/app/Mms.apk

cd /sdcard

install /sdcard/mms.apk /system/app/mms.apk

Then Reboot :)

I have not been successful tethering. I have been assured that my data plan remains unchanged from my successful tethering of my TP2 - unlimited domestic data and tethering. I get the following message:

"Error 619: A connection to the remote computer could not be established, so the port used for this connection was closed. For further assistance, click More Info or search Help and Support Center for this error number."

[Focus General] TOA Duck:
sounds like a drivers problem. I had the same issue for a while. Couldnt get the right drivers to install. Once you do get the drivers installed properly, your focus will tether
[Focus General] XATAGuy:
Hi Guys,

Thanks for your replies. Here’s what I’ve tried so far.

I printed and carefully followed the instructions here:

http://mobilitydigest.com/windows-phone-7-tethers-you-can-do-it-now-heres-how/

http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/samsung-focus-does-tethering-after-all-on-windows-phone-7

I suspect that the drivers loaded successfully when I initially paired the Focus, but just in case, I removed and reinstalled the driver from the link on the Mobility Digest article. No change.

Because the drivers appear to be working correctly in that I am able to enter the suggested settings and they appear to be attempting to dial, I have begun to suspect that the problem is with AT&T.

I have checked my account. It reflected the change of devices from the Tilt 2 to the Focus. I am on the following plan:

PDA Personal Max /w Unl M2M Messaging - $74.99/month

“Access and manage your personal e-mail from up to 3 accounts with a PDA wireless handheld. Send, receive forward and reply to messages while on the go. Plans include text, IM or video messages with Unlimited M2M Messaging and/or tethering options*.

*Tethering enables you to connect your wireless device to your laptop via Bluetooth or a connection cable. Certain usage restrictions may apply. See Explanation of Rates and Charges for details.”

I do not understand the “and/or tethering options” and I could not locate the “Explanation of Rates and Charges” I called AT&T. They were unable to explain my “and/or tethering”, but tried to get me to switch from my unlimited data plan and stated that the plan I am on is no longer available. I hate to give up my data plan, but hate not being able to tether worse. They also advised me that the Focus will not tether.

Because I never had issues tethering the Tilts, I told them that I would be switching back to the tilt in the hope that this would get tethering reactivated. They made me give them the IMEI of my tilt and test my voice and data connections. After the call, I put my sim card back in the Focus and tried to tether. Voice and data work fine, but as for tethering - No Change.

I still have absolutely no idea why I can’t tether. I would very much appreciate any other suggestions. For those of you who have been successful, please – Which data plan are you on?

Thanks again for any help,

Dave
[Focus General] gillbell:
AT&T makes you pay $20 ON TOP of your $20-30 for your data plan for tethering. I'm guessing thats what the "tethering options" is referring to.
