From what I have seen of the Sprint extended battery the door has a slight curve in the back that slopes upwards to the highest part of the battery door . You should be able to get away with a smaller cut out , meaning less material removed from the case it self there for keeping most of its strength intact . For you I would start with a small rectangular cut on the back and slowly cut more away till it fits right and snug . I personally used a TPU case its a harder material but more rigid then typical silicone . If done write I dont think it would look that bad . I seriously believe someone needs to come up with a "REAL" case for these phones and I dont mean that snap on Seidio crap either . Granted I like their products but a snap on case ? Really ? Hell even a case styled similar to the Motorola Droid X case by them with a back molded to hold the extended battery would have been fine enough to get full coverage .
[EVO 4G Accessories] DOG666:
I just found out thru ebay today that my tpu hybrid case shipped, so once in my possesion i'll try the mod & upload pics for you guys. The only thing that gets me though is that since i have the sprint 2600mah battery, my battery door is molded/shaped different, so should i just remove the backing like OneStepAhead did, or dremel out the backing so just the hump protrudes. I'm kinda' favoring the dremel mod cuz' at least i'll have a lil' more support for my phone, what do you guys think?
[EVO 4G Accessories] DOG666:
Thanks for the suggestion, i was thinking about the all tpu case too, but i'm kinda' iffy on it. My only worries about those are that over time do they lose shape, & get stretched out? also, unlike the all silicone ones, are they lint traps? I had to get rid of my seidio case cuz' it collected lint/dust like crazy. Either way i'm excited about my lil' project, i have a tpu/polycarbonate hybrid, & a snap on plastic/rubberized case on order, time to bust out the dremel :D
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
If you can't find case for your extended battery case you can always just drill a couple tiny holes in the battery back and use a wrist lariat to keep from dropping it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] edisepic:
just bought a hybrid tpu case from ebay for 8 bucks to rip half of it out
[EVO 4G Accessories] DOG666:
Did you just order it, or did you already receive it? also which extended battery/door do you have? I have yet to receive mine, if you're using the sprint 2600mah battery please post your results, i'm really anxious to get mine & mod it. :D
[EVO 4G Accessories] DOG666:
Quick update guys, i received my rubberized/ snap on case today, & in the process of modding it, the side snapped :(

I'm now waiting for my tpu/ polycarbonate hybrid case to arrive, should be this week. Hopefully all goes well with this one, gonna' have to approach this one different. If it's a success, i'll let you guys know, & post pics.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
I gotta just wonder, since the community is pretty much screaming for an EVO bumper case or one that fits the extended Chinese battery, why no one in China makes such a thing.
[EVO 4G Accessories] superm3:
or you can use the griffin technology case and do the same thing.
[EVO 4G Accessories] akastixx:
maybe not if the cuts were precise enough
[EVO 4G Accessories] RichTJ99:
Any updates to this? I just bought an extended battery & dont want to do without a TPU. I dont mind if the back door gets scratched.
[EVO 4G Accessories] BDR456:
i tried it, but it wasnt snug enough for my taste.:(

[EVO 4G Accessories] Jeremy D.:
Great Minds Think Alike!

No way! I did the same thing for my Sheildo Extended Battery. I didn't want anything to cover up the stylish curves and overall aesthetic appeal of the phone (which I already did when I got the bulky battery with a new back cover), which is why I got the case to begin with! After getting the new battery I did the same thing with the white cover and loved it so much that I ordered the red one to try out next. Unfortiently, the red cover did not pull apart so easy (factory un-defect?...) because it was made too strong! But all in all I'm sticking with the white bumper case because its perfect!
[EVO 4G Accessories] stanglifemike:
How did you wrap that extended door in CF? I did a stock door and was gonna do my chinese extended door but was told that it was too curvy. It has WAY less curves than the one you did, which I also have in white. Did you have to add extra cuts in the material to get it to lay flat everywhere?
[EVO 4G Accessories] stanglifemike:
Actually no, it looks just like the mod everyone in this thread is talking about, just with more coverage and a tighter fit. I also tried the method mentioned here, but it was WAY too loose on my Evo, now way I would ever use it. I did it too a case that I didnt really like and had never used anyway, so it wasnt a loss....just showed me that it wasnt for me. Cutting a silicone case gets you more coverage and a tighter fit. I gave the one I made to a friend becasue I rarely use my extended battery any more, I would post pics otherwise. I do highly recommend others do the silicone method though if you are not happy with the TPU case mod
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
Sorry I forgot about this thread I made. I ended up not needing the extended battery as I get over 24 hours from the stock battery. I actually know a factory in china that I bet could make a proper bumper, it's the same factory that makes the amzer and luxmo tpu cases. I'll enquire about it when they get back from their 15 day holiday! man they have long holidays there!
[EVO 4G Accessories] superm3:
I didn't have to do anything. It was already precut. Its not made for the Chinese extended door.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Neitmrh15:
Figured I would resurrect this thread as reference instead of making a new one...

Has anyone come across other cases that would be easy to transform into a bumper style like with the iPhone?
[EVO 4G Accessories] whatsitsnamenow:
Any of the hybrid tpu case should work. The back of the hybrid tpu case is rigid plastic and would tear off from the circular tpu front (bumper section). I received one where it was starting to tear/separate when I got it. Probably because something heavy was laid on top of the package. I rip the rest of it off easily as you can see where the tpu and the rigid plastic part meets.
[EVO 4G Accessories] vaughnmr:
I got this silicon case from amazon ($5) and trimmed it to fit the extended battery. Works great, looks good.

[EVO 4G Accessories] htc-3v0:
I would like to know which is the best extended battery for my EVO
[EVO 4G Accessories] cmarti:
The one that Sprint sells, but I must say that this thread is about the bumper mod for the EVO not the batteries.
[EVO 4G Accessories] htc-3v0:
I'm sorry but I new to d forum .... But I'm about to order a new extended battery kit with a silicon case from amazon and I gonna b doing this mod soon as possible
[EVO 4G Accessories] boomer30:
It would be really nice if someone made a bumper for our EVO just like the iPhone
[EVO 4G Accessories] gab2012:
I just got the sprint store battery, I'm looking for a cover for it, my phone feels naked ;(
[EVO 4G Accessories] kevinjmoore:
Why not just buy a custom case to protect all of your phone

There is a seller on eBay (moretalktime) who sells custom TPU cases for a lot of phones including the evo 4g with the extended battery.

Ok mysteriously I've lost my audible touch sound.

Things I've tried.

Deselect then reselect Audible selection .

Same for touch tones.

Then an old fashion reboot.

Is repairing my phone using Samsung PC Companion my only choice for fixing this issue?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AKA_Rizzo:
In Astro

/system/media/audio/ui

I see all the sound files. Problem is they're not "sounding" .

If "you" look there and see them, does yours have an "r" at the end of the shaded information line for each sound file ?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
In 2.1, audible selection sound is considered by the system as multimedia sound.

Play a video or a song and use the volume keys to increase the sound.

Then, you should be able to hear audible selection sound too. ;)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AKA_Rizzo:
Nope.. Didn't work.

If I go thru Astro, I can click the sounds and hear them one at a time.

[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
aha, sorry, I misunderstand , thanks for your tips :)
[Android Apps and Games] nafnist:
Works very well, but I'm missing more customization options.

It should be able to fit into the style of my current Android theme, and that's just not possible with this app.

But good start, none the less.
[Android Apps and Games] DannyDroid:
If you disable notifications from within the stock SMS then GoSMS doesn't "sound" when you get a text.

Edit: It seems like no notifications are working.

[Android Apps and Games] Coedy:
Looks like a great starting block but just isn't for me.

I loathe the whole speech bubble thing on all the add on sms apps nowadays. Also this looks completely out of place on my black themed 2.2 system.

For me the stock system (all be it slow compared to this app) is nicer to use purely because it ties in with the rest of the android experience.

I will reinstall in a month or so though because this is definitely the fastest SMS app ive come across (Handled a 1000+ SMS Thread easily on my HTC Hero!) :D

If this had a theme that effectively cloned the 2.2 messaging app but had the sped boost this would be a winner for me.

Also it wouldn't load in pictures from my contacts.

Good luck with the development! :D
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks for your comments, we will add more customization options for future release; It will be soon ,I guest one or two weeks later.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, we do test notifications for Milestone, but the version is 2.1. we have got your concern, and will keep an eye on it. thanks again.

[Android Apps and Games] archboy69:
LOL. Thanks for the quote! I actually think it is great so far. I like the pop up and over lightness of the apps. No problems receiving/sending pics or mms. It also seems to sync with Facebook contact right? This is what I've been looking for over the other two major sms app. Nice work overall.

The FC was from the dam gameloft game that was buggy. That's why I don't like them. You get no support or updates on their crap.

Thanks a lot for your support. sure, we are always continually listening to the users, working for the users! :)
[Android Apps and Games] crackedvenom2:
yeah i was wondering too. they werent working yesterday, then they started randomly working, and then they stopped again. as i said in a previous post we really need a notification light.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Notification do work when the screen if off, :) but we will have a check. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
You get the answer, not the only :)
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Seems good, take into plan. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Not difficult to implement, but what is the main benefit? please don't just tell me that Handcent has it :) Thanks a lot.
[Android Apps and Games] crackedvenom2:
to mix well with themes and what not. that bright green def doesnt mesh well with my dark theme lol
[Android Apps and Games] ibmonkey:
just started using go sms, and I've already uninstalled handcent :)

couple of points from myself (I think others would have already picked up on these)

- contacts pics that come from syncing with facebook don't appear. (would be a big bonus for me if they did. like other sms apps)

- I would appreciate more themes, especially a dark one :)

apart from that I have no complaints, I like the overall feel of it so far and the simplistic nature of the app and the popups.

keep up the good work, and i hope to see some good development in this app.

[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, could you please specify more detail whichcase that notification don't work.
[Android Apps and Games] crackedvenom2:
i believe it has worked with all apps ive tried, even stock.
[Android Apps and Games] CrazyKnight122:
Is there or will there be a widget?
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
See as mentioned by crackedvenom2 below in his quote.

Well I think it's really very random. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Because of that, I really cannot make use of GO SMS now as much as I would like too. Hence I need to stay with ChompSMS for now. Details? I which I can tell you more too but that's about it >> i.e. it's randomly working and not working. No notifications even when turned ON. No POP-UP screen even when it's turned ON. =(

Do make a Quick Compose shortcut too! :)
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:

I'm a recent convert to this program.

Is there any way to adjust spacing in the conversation view. Seems like an awful lot of space is lost in the spacing between lines (almost looks double spaced).

I looked through all the settings but didn't find anything pertaining to this control. If this is not adjustable, can this be added to an upcoming release? Either in the form of less spacing, or an actual adjustment in settings.

Also, it would be nice for the font adjustment to display the font size as number in addition to the scroll bar.

Thanks!

Hi

I'm running on Miui-au rom on desire. This prb exists whichever the verson is (rom and SMS).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=11973857#post11973857

Resume :

I set the lockpattern security. Start Gosms,it shows up the lock pattern, exit it quickly and re launch GO sms immediatly. Then the lock pattern doesn't show up. At least on my Mobile.

Regarding the user agent, in fact it could affect a large part of mobile in my country (France) if the provider is Orange and if the Rom is not an original one or based on an original one.

Can You add function to force display unread sms notification on lock screen under big clock? When I uninstall stock sms app notifications not shown, and when stock app is installed notifications doesn't delete (when message are read in go sms) - I always must open stock app to delete it.

Of course notifications on status bar work ok. I say about infos on lock screen, under big clock.

Thanks for responding.

My comment was more so about the fact that YOUR PROGRAM does **NOT** have this wakelock issue that handcent has. That issue makes features such as popup's completely unusable and useless. There's been ongoing discussions/post on their forum about this, but has not been fixed.

About the only change i'd want is outlined in this post - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12390054&postcount=1982 . Other than that, it seems to do everything I'd need in a messaging program just fine.

Hi there, please change and optimize the GUI of Go-SMS:

In my opinion, there are too much Buttons which are not needed by the most users, so short this GUI Menu like the default SMS app (richt side).

Also the white Background isn´t really nice, so change to the default color from the system (like the right side)
