[Vibrant Accessories] rembonjaski:
So the first thing I noticed was that this is not a slider, but a front-and-back snap case. The product description says "Unique snap together design and opening slot makes putting on and removing your case easy" but for some reason thought it was a slider like the Surface II for the Captivate. So, it's not their fault I misunderstood.

Since the front bezel cover is so thin, my initial impression is that it seems a little flimsy. The back cover is also quite thin and has no lining like other Seidio cases. I think this was a conscious decision in order to keep the case as slim as possible. The fit is quite precise, so I don't think the lining would really make much difference as there is no movement within the case.

Although the front bezel piece seems flimsy at first, it feels quite sturdy once you snap it to the back cover. I do have some concerns the clips that snap together will wear down over time if you remove the cover frequently. Only time will tell on that point.

It has Seidio's "signature soft touch finish" which is like a somewhat rubberized matte texture. It's quite nice, but attracts prints if you have oily fingers.

Overall, the fit is pretty much perfect and the cutouts are precise. It's very thin and has a nice texture. Of the six cases I have, it's certainly the nicest. It does, however, cost about as much as the other five cases combined - $29.95.

At $19.95, I'd probably recommend it in a second. At $30 I have some reservations, namely the long term durability of the clasps that keep the two pieces together.

Vibrant case wont work
[Vibrant Accessories] kolyan:
should be gettin mine tomorrow....

i think they have 6 month warranty which actually does work. thats another big plus with this company.
[Vibrant Accessories] rembonjaski:
Good to know. Hopefully won't have to use it.
[Vibrant Accessories] MilkPudding:
Thanks for the review.

I'm still sticking to my white mesh case. I like really light and almost-not-there type of cases.
[Vibrant Accessories] s15274n:
Thanks for the review, mine should be here within a day or so.

I ordered using the coupon code XMAS15 that was posted here. Not certain it's still valid though as the poster said it may expire on the 19th.

To the OP, how does the phone feel in your hands compared to what you had previously?

Also, did your volume buttons ever rattle? This is my only hesitation as the silicone case from t-mobile prevents the rattles I have from the volume rocker (which is loose).
[Vibrant Accessories] rembonjaski:
For reference, I've had TPU's, hybrid TPU/Plastic (the one with hard clear back), a generic version of the Barely-There, and a flexible plastic perforated case (XMatrix Cover from DayDeal).

The added size and weight is similar to the XMatrix perforated case. It's not as slim as the Barely-There style cases, but I think it's definitely lower profile than TPU or silicone.

The finish is nearly the same as the Barely-There knock off I have, but seems a little more durable (the coating on the old case started to come off within days). It's smooth, almost suede-like, but has a bit of tack when held in the hand. When put on a smooth surface, like a desk or on wood trim in a car, it does not stick at all. This is a bit of a negative for me. One thing I like about TPU cases is that they kind of stick when you lay them on a smoother surface (I usually put my phone on the wood trim next to the gear shift in my car) but are not tacky otherwise.

As for the volume buttons, mine are not loose so I can't really comment on that issue.

One other thing I've noticed in the last few days of using the case, is that bezel cover is attached to the bottom part in only a few spots so there is some give in the areas that aren't clipped together. I think they should have added a couple more contact points on each side. It's not terrible, but I'm a bit OCD so it probably bothers me more than it would most other people.
[Vibrant Accessories] s15274n:
I'll report back, should be here anytime now.. thanks man.
[Vibrant Accessories] kolyan:
Case is good, very slim and feels good in hand, not perfect like other Seidio products. Like the review states, the case is NOT slide-on which sucks. I dont know why they used clip-on design, with slide-on case could have been even slimmer and more durable. Fit is also nice, but also not perfect, phone is just a little loose in case, not noticeable right away until you play with it.
[Vibrant Accessories] rembonjaski:
After waiting around for the SGP Slider, I was also hoping this would be a sliding case.

I did get to hold a Captivate with the Innocase II, which is a slider, and the fit was pretty awful. It moves around a ton compared to this front-back type. I guess I'll take this style and more precise fit over slider with a bad fit.
[Vibrant Accessories] s15274n:
Is it the bump on the Vibrant that is the main issue with a slider?

I was a bit let down to find this was a snap on the front/back design.

[Vibrant Accessories] kolyan:
it is nice and clean. my nexus one case fits better, but they probably had to make it clip-on design i guess for Vibrant bump
[Vibrant Accessories] PaiPiePia:
Nice review! I can't help but feel like Seidio threw this product together in a hurry, after they realized there are people with Vibrants. It just looks cheap compare to their other offerings.
[Vibrant Accessories] s15274n:
Just got it. initial impressions:

1 feels great in the hand. Looks good too.

2 I absolutely hate how easy it un-snaps.

3 I want to know their return policy till they have a legit case like the ones I am accustomed too from seidio.

4 it's much more difficult to press power now.

EDIT: okay, found out how to do the return, just waiting to hear back from them.

[General Questions and Answers] dante1950:
Hi everyone, my names. Steve, been lurking and learning lots from everyone out there. So first off thanks a ton to you all. I have worked in the industry for years, and learning everyday...

Well I figured now that I have a lot of time off coming up thanks to disabilities, figured I would register, join the family and help out where I can, and continue to learn.. now with that aside...lol

I have a pretty big problem, I have a Telus brand htc tp2 (T7379) and its getting costly, I'm at the end of my leash, and it still presists.

Problem 1 is that almost since day one I wanted to unlock the sim for travelling abroad , and have done 3 times already, first time cost $115 from telus ( at that time, my options were limited). Second time cost $78 through telus after sending it back in for repair (should have been free if you ask me). Third time was the same deal, but cost me the same $78..

Just 2 days ago, I tried to unlock it again from one of those online sim unlock sights for $45 but I was ripped off, the provided me with a sim unlock code that wasn't close to correct, and when comfronted they told me there no way it didn't work and that I was just trying to pull something, but here I sit $45 lighter in the pocket, and a phone that's gonna be costing me a lot in the upcoming days in roaming charges if I cant figure out something and quick...

This is only one of the 2 problems I have, but I am pretty sure that a hard spl and unlock will fix that, after reading up on my options. I'm gonna do that tomorrow and hope it fixes 2 underlying firmware issues I have been having, and if it doesn't fix it I will be on here early in the morning possible looking for help..

I am leaving late tuesday night for 2 weeks of medical treatments in Houston Texas. And the last time I was there and roaming it cost me over $4000. And I can not do that again, as money is tight now to begin with

If there is anyone who can assist me in unlocking the sim, I will forever be in your debt, as I already am, please pm me or reply here with a email address and I can send you the IMEI and so on.. I can afford a little bit, not much, but can only pay via email money transfer, no paypal or credit cards available...however I am more then willing to lend a helping hand and my wisdon to anyone who I can help as a form of payment if need be.. Please someone help, I cant afford to get burned again with this, as it is I'm already out $45 and still in this predicament. Please someone help me!

Thank you very much

Steve Cantin

Sorry cant post my email yet

I've been having problems with saving mms pictures lately. When I saved pictures in the past I would have no problems with it when I checked the download file in my gallery. Recently when I saved a mms picture, it's thumbnail picture is the same as an old picture I deleted awhile back. It has been saving pictures lately with that same old thumbnail but when I click on the pic its the right one I just saved. I would save others and it would do the same thing but with recent pictures. When I delete the picture with the old thumbnail picture and save another picture it would save it has the same old picture. Sorry if I'm confusing anyone but I need help. I guess all the picture that are being saved through "file.jpg" is saving old thumbnail pictures that I already deleted.

Well if you understood my problem... Is there a way to fix it? I just want to be able to look at my thumbnails to see which pictures are which without clicking on the picture itself.

Please help if you can. Thanks!!!!

I want to change the size of my /data/data ("datadata") partition permanently. I have plenty of space on my HTC Droid Incredible's NAND memory, but too much is allocated toward the /data partition and not enough toward the /data/data partition, so I am always being warned that I'm running low on space for application data (which a quick "df" command confirms is true). I am rooted of course and am hoping there's a way to manually redistribute the space; is there?

I purposely posted this question in general Android "hacking" because this question doesn't seem to be addressed anywhere on the internet, and I know this answer could benefit users of all phones, not just the Incredible.

I've Odin'ed and re-Odin'ed this ROM. It runs fine and I love it but unfortunately thereafter I am unable to flash anything. I get a signature verification error. I've tried the recovery_test_keys.zip to no avail. My only guess now is that I am not Odin'ing the ROM correctly so below I've list my procedure step by step. Can someone let me know if I'm doing something wrong or how I can get update.zip flash working again?

Upgrading to JL4 from Stock

Odin JFD

PIT - Odin_20100512.pit

PDA - T959UVJFD.tar

Re-Partition - UNCHECKED

Auto Reboot - CHECKED

F. Reset Time - CHECKED

Reboot and let phone sit for 10 minutes minimum

Odin JL4

PIT - Odin_20100512.pit

PDA - T959UVJL4.tar

Re-Partition - UNCHECKED

Auto Reboot - CHECKED

F. Reset Time - CHECKED

Reboot and let phone sit for 10 minutes minimum

Settings > Privacy > Factory Data Reset

Reboot and let phone sit for 10 minutes minimum

At this point the phone works perfectly except I can no longer flash anything. ROM Manager will not install ClockworkMod and attempts to flash any update.zip gives that stupid signature verification error.

Please, please, please! Anyone who has this working, let me know how you did it!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
That's because JL4 used 3e recovery and it uses different signature keys. Use odin to flash one of the voodoo kernels (if you don't want to run voodoo, pit the disable voodoo file on your card properly) as clockworkmod is built into the kernel. From here, you can flash any Rom you want.

If you want a working recovery, regardless of kernel, I suggest you find my JL4 Rom as it has a modified working recovery that supports clockworkmod. (it's in Tue den section, just look for it)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICEReaction:
Try running an official RUU to unroot or if you can get into bootloader, you can download a stock PC36IMG file and load it that way.

Links found in this post

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICEReaction:
What PC36IMG file did you use? The one for build 3.70?

The links I posted are for RUUs which are exe files. Connect the phone to the comp and run the RUU.exe file and it should do its thing if the phone can be recognized.

I'll be honest and say...I'm not an expert and I don't really know if your phone really is bricked or not but I sure hope it isn't! I've seen many threads where people post situations similar to yours and other XDA users say...as long as you can get into bootloader, then no it is not bricked. Just have to find a way to get a stock ROM loaded back on your phone and generally that's through running an RUU.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICEReaction:
Ok, do you have a microSD card reader of some kind? As long as you can get the file onto the SDcard and once you restart holding VOL DOWN and POWER, it should automatically try to look for the PC36IMG.zip file if you wait for a quick minute or so.
