[XPERIA X8 Accessories] i_hate_sonyericsson:
now i really wish someone would make a hard outer shell with a real screen protector (that would shield the screen from sharp points like car keys) pretty much works like a 'leather' case, but doesnt wrap around the phone.

like the old sony clie th55 protector.

leather case makes me feel like a sissy.
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] ZETStheBUNNY:
I`ve bought one on ebay just type "OEM Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 Cover Case Housing Black"

and it came 3 weeks after with two screwdrivers, but I couldn`t tako off front the screen it`s glued...

advice me how to cange front cover and not to brake screen...
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] thomaszq:
black housing

My black housing is still not arrived....
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] flyingteddy:
I've mentioned this on my earlier post...

I don't think you can take it off without damaging it, even if you do, it's probably even harder to glue (or whatever other methods) it to the new case.

For other phones, they seem to sell the housing WITH the front screen...

But I'm all ears, keen to hear any solutions.

there is a battery with more capacity?
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] adrian80:
Hi

I need a car USB charger for X8. (cigarette lighter)

I saw that they have different powers from 500mAh to 1000mAh and even more.

Which one do I need for X8?

Thanks
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] :
is 1800 mAh the maximum battery capacity of x8?
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] fookelvin:
is there any xperia x8 back cover housing available??
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] edxmon:
You need to pry it off, I changed my white housing to a black housing.

The digitizer (transparent screen above the LCD) is attached with adhesive tape. Use a guitar pick to push it in at the edges, and separate it from the front plate housing. The adhesive tape will restick if you do it carefully.
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] Rolandh:

[Vibrant Android Development] smackdown85146:
Okay, first of all: mods, you can delete or move this post at your discretion. I'm just curious to see who's seen this.

Anyway, I've been looking around for some hope of running AOSP/CM on my Vibrant, and I stumbled upon Samsung's Open Source directory with the SGH-t959 being one of the devices with open sourced components. Me being excited, I downloaded the source, and sure enough, has components we might find necessary: 3d_module_GPL.tar.gz, Kernel.tar, and Platform.tar. Although the platform sources are meant to overwrite AOSP 2.1-update1 and the Kernel source is 2.6.29, I'm thinking we can somehow use these to hopefully be able to build ROMs for the Vibrant.

So, what do you guys think?
[Vibrant Android Development] wannagofast:
Samsung droped that source code like two months ago. Most of the stable 2.1 ROMs are because the devs already used what they needed from that code.
[Vibrant Android Development] smackdown85146:
Ahh, thanks for the clarification. Makes so much more sense now.

Mods, delete?

Screen Keeps Shutting Down while in use. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Epic 4G General] deano0714:
Did you push the power button?
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Just the screen, or does it power off completely?
[Epic 4G General] iwantAdollar:
Is it shutting off while you're touching the screen? If its turning off when you're not touching the screen you might accidentally be hitting the sleep/wake button. Or it could be your screen timeout. It may be set to a quicker time. Go to settings>display>screen timeout and check wha the time is.
[Epic 4G General] rvajuggalo:
It dose't shutdown completely but does Drop calls and Interrupts Typing text messages all menu buttons stay lit
[Epic 4G General] tanimn:
Something's crashing. Start uninstalling your recent apps. Don't forget about updates.
[Epic 4G General] crayak:
I had that issue for a bit, I ended up restoring from a previous backup. Worked okay after that. My screen was shutting down/turn off. This also happened for a bit when I wasn't able to do a full for a day.
[Epic 4G General] flash_c4:
You most likely have a buggy app that is crashing the UI. I had this until I got rid of some crappy apps that wanted to run in the background that was for mapping 4G coverage.
[Epic 4G General] crayak:
What the name of that 4g coverage app. I had a couple. Id had it for awhile before I started having issues. J/w, for future reference.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Croak:
Got an email back from PhantomSkinz late last week, thought I'd share it with you.

Hopefully that means Chromatics as well. I've used the black "carbon fiber" skin on my Galaxy S for months now, still like new, looks great, and has a nice texture to it which helps your grip quite a lot.

Oh, and there's this little tidbit:
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Croak:
And it's live. Order today and save 50%.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] xoltrix2000:
Damn i shoulda checked this post earlier, it's Nov 30 and the thing is back to regular price of 45 f'ing dollars!
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Croak:
Pity they're in Arizona which doesn't do Daylight Savings. Otherwise you'd still have about 7 minutes since they do run on PST. I'd give it a try anyway if you haven't already.

And Winter30 as a code will still give you 30% off (just doesn't stack with Cyber50).
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Croak:
So mine arrived yesterday. It's good stuff. Very good stuff.

To be honest here, I'm like four times as happy with the Chromatics on my Tab than I am with the Zenus case that came in the same day.

Besides no more fingerprints on the back, the installation of the stuff on the sides and top mean this thing is MUCH easier to hold one-handed, the bit of extra friction/grip it gives means you don't need a death-grip, light pressure is enough.

Extra bonus, the side pieces make the device look much slimmer, believe it or not.

Also comes with a nicely cut screen protector which I haven't installed yet.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] bd85:
Looks good, is it easy to install?

Will the 30% code work today?

If you remove it, will there be some glue leftovers or some mark after the skin?

Sent from my GT-P1000
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Croak:
Really easy to install. The 3M material they use is pretty nifty stuff.

Here's a video of it:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-z3mb85nxdY

It can be removed with no residue, and re-applied almost indefinitely if you get it crooked or something.

If you get a wrinkle in it, (or an edge lifts, etc) apply a little heat from a hair dryer or desk lamp and it will smooth right out.

After it's applied, you can use a little heat and/or a microfiber cloth to rub the edges, so that they blend smoothly with the Tab...when it's brand new, the material has a little "bite" when you run your finger across an edge.

30% code should still work.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] aussiebum:
Hot damn that is sexy. I'd bought a chromatics kit from them for the Milestone before but wasn't satisfied because it wasn't really full coverage, so I went with a (also very nice) Wrapsol matte skin with the Tab this time.

Think I'll order this again.. just need think whether I want black or white :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] bd85:
Great, will make a order directly

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] shinji21:
Just wanna make a quick comment that after installing the phantomskin, the tab doesnt fit on the HDMI dock. I can still force it in, but then it made some scratches on the skin. Hope ppl are aware of this.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] geordy:
Same experience here. But the skin is really nice! I'm very impressed. It's my first skin set from Phantom. Easy to install and gives the Tab an very good look. Only Sim cutout is not perfect.

Display cover was not that easy to apply but looks quite good now. After waiting for about 8 hours, til all water disappeared.

Delivery to Germany was quite fast.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] natious:
Really? :(

these skins don't look that thick, i just ordered a dock, i wanted to get a skin like this or the zagg one :(
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] geordy:
It's not that bad. Just the screenprotector gets little much pressure on the lower corners.

Backcover is ok.

With the protectors it feels to fit a litter too perfect into the dock.

Maybe supported by the flimsy adhesive surface of the screenprotector. The SGT doesn't slide that easy into the dock.

For me that is no real problem.

Don't be disappointed bevor you get the skins. I think it was a good choice.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] plunk13:
Does the skin get scratched or rubbed away after being inserted into the dock?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] shinji21:
It made some marks on it (the screen side), but it did not remove or shrink it. Mostly it is cosmetic I would say.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] geordy:
Agree 100%.

I sent in the $1.90 donation via sms, I think, or I sent an sms and expect to be charged $1.90 plus 9 cents tax) and I can not yet use the app to answer calls on shake.

Please advise how long it takes to acknowledge the receipt of the $1.90 "donation", which apparently is necessary to be paid in order to use the shake to answer function for this otherwise free android app.

I sent an email to atrant dot sg at gmaill explaining the issue. with my phone's iemi number and phone number.

Frustrated I am,

[Epic 4G General] skywalkr2:
Just picked up my epic this weekend. Very happy so far. Unfortunately somehow my virtual keyboard is non responsive. It pops up as it should whenever entering text input mode while in profile view.... however if I try to use it as swype or hunt and peck its like I am not touching the. Screen at all. Therefore I am forced to use. The hardware keyboard for text entry.

I figure this must be operator error because the touch screen works great for everything else. Hopefully someone can give me a clue on what I did wrong..... thanks.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicolasavru:
Going to finally get around to taking my Captivate to an AT&T Device Support Center to get it replaced due to random shutdowns. Currently running Perception build 5, so I was going to flash to JF6, master clear, and then update to JH7.

Was wondering if there was anything else I should flash/clear/reset before going to get it replaced. Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cappysw10:
Was it randomly shutting down on stock? :confused:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicolasavru:
Yep. Have had random shutdowns on every single rom I've used: stock JF6, ota JH7, Cognition 2.1X, Cognition 2.2X, Darky's Raw Steel (multiple versions), Doc's (multiple versions), Perception (multiple builds).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cappysw10:
Yep, that's a warranty. Getting back to JH7 should suffice. Good luck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicolasavru:
Hah. So I flash back to JH6, do a master clear, and start an ota update to JH7. Updater says the phone will reboot. It turns off, AT&T logo comes on, and the phones dies. I can get no response out of it whatsoever now, no power at all. Tried the jig also, no response. Shouldn't be any problems with the warranty tomorrow, just rather ironic that their update bricks the phone the night before I go to get it replaced.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mbuxx:
I know telus used to be strictly cdma, however i know as of 2010 they have made some upgrades.

Does anyone know if unlocked phones such as this one:

(add http) cgi.ebay.com/MOTOROLA-DROID-MILESTONE-2-ANDROID-SMARTPHONE-UNLOCKED-/140483114173?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item20b57234bd

would fully funcionall work on telus?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackthebone:
Just by looking at the supported bands it won't work on Telus or Bell. It will only work on Rogers but at EDGE speeds. The current supported bands by Telus and Bell are 3G only which are 850/1900 frequency. The only other provider in Canada which has a different one is Wind which is on the AWS 1700 frequency so T-Mobile 3G phones should work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mustardman29:
Telus and Bell Canada are not GSM because that refers to 2G which is a legacy network they do not have. They are 3G which all the 2G providers such as AT&T have upgraded to. Their CDMA network is still there running in parallel for now.

They use the exact same 3G system and frequencies as AT&T. So any AT&T 3G phone will also work on Bell or Telus. They do not have the legacy network so 2G phones will not work. Only 3G phones.

To put it another more technical way:

They support 3G UMTS/HSPA 850MHz and/or 1900MHz

They do NOT support 2G GSM/EDGE on any frequency

I'm currently trying out different combinations of ROM's and kernels to see how much i can push the phone while still getting at least a day of battery life. So if you have any ideas post them.
[Vibrant General] xtone:
im using obsidian v5 beta with stock kernel + oclf.. on a day to day basis with moderate/heavy use i can average 2-3hrs on call, 1-2hrs gaming when bored, 30-50 texts, checking facebook and email. Full charge to about 30-40% left at the end of the day (unplugged for 10-11hrs)

im not trying to stay unplugged for 2-3 days like is a marathon.. im just glad it can last me the day without me worrying about limiting how i use my phone and go about my business :)
[Vibrant General] roguly:
thanks for the input, im trying to find a rom that has good batt life, gps working, and has smooth transitions and little lag w/o a lagfix. Hows the "smoothness" and gps on v5? I would flash it myself to see but i dont have my usb cable @ the moment
[Vibrant General] diazf09:
Just download from ur phones browser and move to interntal sd via astro... And flash away..

Swyped©from my Sammy
[Vibrant General] xtone:
So far I think I covered I'm very satisfied with batt life, as far GPS is concerned i've had no trouble getting locks. I havent exactly timed how long it locks though but i'm guestimating within 30secs. I ran it for 2 days no lagfix and it's been very smooth.. Just got greedy so i added a lagfix anyway :D

Axura stock gets me 30 hours (light gaming, light pandora, heavy texting, moderate web browsing, 3 widgets pulling data, all on 3g)
[Vibrant General] roguly:
thanks for all your input guys, the reason for this is im trying to put together a collaboration of different things from separate roms, similar to what frank707 did, and im deciding on what rom to base it off of. i think i might go w/ axura, just for the transitions and the rom works very well.
[HD2 General] xiaohan:
I have purchased and installed some apps via MarketPlace on my HTC HD2 before I upgrade the ROM from HTC website. But I found for some apps when I want to install them again via MarketPlace->My Applications->Ready to install, then choose specific app, e.g. "Bing", the screen just shows "Loading..." for a long time without any response. I have to choose "Back" at the bottom to exit and back to the app list screen.

This happens to many other apps too, I am wondering whether there is something wrong with my phone or the MarketPlace?

And is there anyway I can remove the apps from my MarketPlace's app list, which I do not want to install them any more.

Thank you.
[Captivate General] iJemuel:
Hello

Problem: About 90% of my contacts have a "/1" at the end of them. For example:

Luis/1

John/1

Ashley/1

and so on...

When I login to my gmail none of them have the "/1". I sync my contacts but they still show the "/1" in my phone. How can I fix this?

I deleted all the contacts from my Sim Card, so I am only using and showing the Google Contacts.

Thanks for your help.
[Captivate General] iJemuel:
I got it fixed. In case anyone out there is having this problem this is how to fix it.

For some reason my contacts were being "linked" with gmail and phone, even though I had the option to only show Gmail contacts.

To Fix It

You have to do this individually, for each contact.

Open a contact, and under "Linked Contacts" delete the one from the phone or the one showing the "/1".

Hope this helps.

I kan't use it, bekause of the keyboard krash every 3 sekonds.

Is there somekind of fix? I tried installing HTC-IME through ultimate settings. But it didn't work...
[Desire Android Development] buzzboy:
Flash gingerbread keyboard, see previous posts.
[Desire Android Development] wph:
Don't understand why the dev can't fix the keyboard. It's a bit annoying when you flash the rom and the first thing you see is a keyboard that force closes. Another thing that I would like to see fixed is the "emergency calls only" text that appears when using the rotary lockscreen.

Apart from that, it's a great rom, although battery usage could be better, but that was also the case with the latest CM builds I used. To be honest, the best battery usage I got was with OpenDesire, a shame it isn't developed anymore. I don't like his new rom, too basic when you got used to this, CM or even SenseHD roms.

For the people asking for A2SD, just do a search on DarkTremors A2SD. Download the zip and flash it in recovery after you flashed the rom. Takes no more than half a minute.
