Does anyone know if the ziggy471 kernel restricts the camera to 3mp. I read something about another kernel restricting the camera and it sounded like it was because of its ability to overclock.

any TPU case out yet for the Nexus S?

I only see the one on amazon for pre order but they only have 3 colors.
[Nexus S Accessories] Smokexz:
I have been interested too... I like how these things look, I doubt we will see some cases by the end of this month, sadly. It might take a month or two before we see some.... As of now there are like three... I think.

eBay has some, all from Japan tho so you wouldnt even get it til next month. im hoping more start to come out because the TPU cases are the best IMO.
[Nexus S Accessories] Vulpix:
Yeah, same level of protection like silicon cases, none of the static/stickyness of a silicon one.

a 1.4$ TPU case - gotta worth the money

while I was spending my time going over and over again on the "nexus s case" search result on eBay, found this little thing:

http://cgi.ebay.com/TPU-Silicone-Ca...ccessories&hash=item4aa7e90e64#ht_2436wt_1139

for the lazy ppl among us, thats a 1.4$ tpu case! of course its a HK one, but still, gotta be worth the money isn't it?

anyways IMO this thing got a really nice design, its cheap.. as a person who likes changing his phone's appearance every monday that's really attracting..

the only scary thing is that the seller got a 100% feedback but only 130* feedbacks.. well, willing to risk 1.4$ on that :)

Just thought letting you know about the cheap stuff coming out to our cool phone!

EDIT: if you're ordering make sure you add a note on ebay/paypal with the color you want!!!
[Nexus S Accessories] nxt:
Nice find, ordering.

Damn it, I paid and forgot to put color preference in the note.
[Nexus S Accessories] roshga:
just hope they won't give you a pink one :)
[Nexus S Accessories] nxt:
I emailed them, hopefully they see it. Hopefully they send me the black one, otherwise it's going in the trash.
[Nexus S Accessories] Paparasee:
Is that a black colour??? ... looked more like brown to me.
[Nexus S Accessories] roshga:
lol havn't noticed that! I got the blue one it seems really shiny and cool.. the white was seems good also
[Nexus S Accessories] RaQHoliday:
I ordered something similar, pack of 4 different colors for $12 shipped, though they're not argyle print. Ordered last week, just waiting for them to arrive now.
[Nexus S Accessories] Nexus MC:
ended ordering this too along with the "S" curve case.

Want to see which I would like the best, along with best fitting and feel.
[Nexus S Accessories] nxt:
Just got mine from the eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/TPU-Silicone-Ca...ccessories&hash=item4aa7e90e64#ht_2436wt_1139

And yes it's black not brown.

It's actually pretty nice. It fits the Seidio spring holster/best buy platinum case belt clip holder.

So I'll be using this case with the belt clip. Very nice.

One thing though, it is NOT see through like the picture and it does NOT have those patterns. It is solid black inside and out.
[Nexus S Accessories] Nexus MC:
Nice, when did you ordered yours? And how long did it took for you get? I'm just waiting on this one.
[Nexus S Accessories] nxt:
I ordered 1/18, just got it today, 2/2.

Yes, I bought this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320644648548

But received this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170592780010

The fit is good. I like it and I preferred the one I received. I'm using it with the Seidio/Best Buy Platinum belt clip.
[Nexus S Accessories] juazlee:
Hey folks.

I am currently using an Amzer silicone case from Amazon, but it's quite irritating. The bumpy texture makes it cling to pretty much everything, so it's damn hard to slide it in or take it out of my pocket. My wife's non-textured silicone case for the Desire is a little better, but still gets lots of lint stuck in it.

I took a look at the TPU cases from tpu-cases.com, and was wondering if TPU is less annoying in that respect. I am trying anyway to buy the black matte model (products_id=50 in tpu-cases.com), but cannot check out. ANyone ever ahd the same problem? It just logs me out all the time.

Cheers!
[Nexus S Accessories] fchipm:
I have the high gloss black one from TPU-cases.com - and it is far and away better than the Amzer silicone I had. I also felt it was a lint-magnet and impossible to remove from my pocket - no longer. This one is so slick and smooth.

One thing to note (I'm sure you've heard by now) - pressing the power button is difficult and takes some getting used to. After about a week or two I've gotten accustomed to it, but it's still kind of a pain.

I don't know if I'd personally go with the matte black, because with the high-gloss it matches the phone perfectly. I think matte would be too much of a contrast.
[Nexus S Accessories] cadguy:
Well I'm glad it worked out ok for you. I'm awaiting delivery of the 's' curve tyoe one that's been mentioned before. If I no like I'll give this one a bash
[Nexus S Accessories] juazlee:
Ah, solved the problem with the website. I contacted them and their support was kind enough to make a manual order and send me a paypal invoice, all in a matter of minutes.

I ended up ordering the matte black because I kinda like the feel of it, and my last phone case was a glossy one, thought I'd change it up a bit :)

Thanks for the heads up, I'm sick of all the lint >.<
[Nexus S Accessories] terra_droid:
That looks like this case I saw.

Is it any good?
[Nexus S Accessories] nxt:
My speaker hole is a bit bigger than that, and no logos of any kind on the back.

This is my first TPU case. I'm pretty happy with it. Before this, I've ONLY bought Seidio Cases. I'm glad this TPU case fits with the Seidio/Best Buy Platinum Series case belt clip.
[Nexus S Accessories] terra_droid:
Oh, thanks for the feedback. I probably need two cases, one for work and another for just going out. :)

I received TPU case today but is it supposed to be somewhat difficult to press the buttons on the side? Otherwise it looks very durable though.
[Nexus S Accessories] Powered by SRAM:
Got my TPU case off Ebay from a local seller. Got it the next day for 7 bucks. These TPU cases are the best. Had one on my Blackberry, HD2 (survived a 2 foot drop on concrete), now my Nexus S.

Fits like a glove. Its pink argyle. :D
[Nexus S Accessories] dinan:
I was in Hong Kong for chinese new year last week and picked up a case that looks almost identical to this except it was translucent, not black and came with a static cling type screen protector. I'd prefer a black version but I didn't see one in the store. Anyway, the little red rectangle on the back of mine says "CAPDASE" which is a pretty well known brand in HK for phone cases etc. Upon closer inspection of the ebay ones, it says "TPUCASE" instead on it... so perhaps these are the OEM for capdase's stuff? In any event, it's cheaper than what I paid (80HKD which is a little over 10 bucks).
[Nexus S Accessories] cadguy:
To anyone with the case with the little red rectangle on the back, ala http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170592780010:

What is the operation of the power and volume buttons like? Are they hard to operate like others have reported with other TPU cases?
[Nexus S Accessories] gondsman:
Anyone can answer cadguy's question? Right now I have Amzer silicone case, but it always sticks to my pockets, it's becoming annoying, so I'm looking for a good TPU case...
[Nexus S Accessories] Nexus MC:
yes the buttons can be hard to press at first. But give it some time and they will soften as they get used/pressed more. But not degrading it in any way.

I have a matte TPU from eBay that I have on now for about a month and quite happy with it. And the buttons are as responsive now compared to when I first got it.

I also have the "S" curve one from eBay (but I decided I liked the all matte look instead) which will be the same case as would most TPU cases.
[Nexus S Accessories] mac227:
help[

DOes the Matte TPU case feel different compared to the Gloss case? I would assume the argyle, matte black, and gloss black would all feel the same, but they look like they could feel different to the touch.

And would you recomend the S curve case or the tpu case>?

I can't decide between the matte black and gloss black TPU case and need to know if they feel any different to the touch??!??!?
[Nexus S Accessories] Nexus MC:
Just to note, the "S" case is also a TPU material. But it has two finishes, a matte and a glossy portion.

I'm using the all matte. In regards to the feel, the matte will generally have a rougher but fine feel to it compared to the glossy smooth one. The argyle has a smooth glossy finish too, it just have an "argyle" (check) pattern inside.

In terms of grip, yes they will grip better than just the phone itself.

And for all finish types, they will provide better feel.

I may also get and try the TPU gloss finish, just for looks.

Here's a few pics I took right now with the NS.

The left with the all matte I am currently using, and the right, the "S" one that I am selling.

See photos here instead https://picasaweb.google.com/mclemente76/Mar12011#
[Nexus S Accessories] mac227:
Does the S case fit as well as the matte and is the power button just as hard to press with the both cases?

ALso where are you selling the "s" case and how much, I may be interested in purchasing
[Nexus S Accessories] Nexus MC:
They both initially fit tight. But i've had the matte on the phone for over a month now and the buttons have softened a bit that the buttons are easier to press.

I'm in Cali. Selling it for $6 shipped.

I got it from the UK eBay seller which charges shipping.
[Nexus S Accessories] hicksology:
How did that matte case turn out for you? I am about to order the same one.
[Nexus S Accessories] CB620:

ordered on the 25th of February

Came yesterday but im not at home :)
[Nexus S Accessories] Alcap12:
I wanted to buy a case for my Nexus S, and I ordered one from Amazon. The problem is that I ordered a silicone one, and now its tricky to put the phone in my pocket and even trickier to get the phone out of the pocket. As someone who doesn't like to flash the phone around, I always stick it in the pockets after using it, so you can see my problem.

I want to buy another one (I've asked amzer for a refund), but I want to make sure that it goes in and out of the pocket as if there was no case at all.

Would I be satisfied if I bought a TPU one?

Thanks

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxSLRxx:
Early today, I was working on a G2 trying to get it rooted with a custom ROM installed. I managed to root the phone and disable the bootloader security. From here, I attempted to install clockwork recovery via rom manager... here's where the disaster starts.

Everything seemed to be going well (no errors), so I tried to load a custom ROM. The Rom installation started but failed partway through. This is when I noticed that the clockwork recovery wasn't working properly. It was flickering and none of the options worked (screen just flashed or turned black if you selected anything). So at this point, the phone would not boot since the ROM installation didn't complete, and I had a buggy recovery image installed.

Unfortunately, the fun doesn't stop here. I figured that I should load the PC10IMG.zip and start from scratch... bad idea. This flashed the bootloader (relocking it) then failed-- leaving me with a bad ROM, bad recovery image, and a locked bootloader. Luckily for me, I was able to use adb via the buggy recovery to unlock the bootloader again.

At this point, I got a bit antsy and jumped the gun. I decided to use fastboot to erase and load a new recovery image. Unfortunately, I realized that I didn't have a recovery.img file to flash... just after I used the fastboot erase recovery command. :eek:

I'm hoping that someone here has a recovery.img file compatible with the T-Mobile G2 so I can flash the recovery partition with fastboot. If anyone has any better ideas I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks in advance for any help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hubix:
Install amon recovery. It's much better then clockword. Do it using adb
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxSLRxx:
Just an update. I couldn't get into adb but I was able to flash clockwork via fastboot. For whatever reason, the amon recovery would go through. Nevertheless, I installed cyanogen using clockwork and everything is gravy!

I know they are actively trying to port Sense (as in the whole thing) to the Captivate but have hit some roadblocks.

If it's just a live wallpaper.. maybe someone in the HTC forums will be kind enough to give you the .apk for it?

But... like everything Sense related it is probably not a standard application and completely proprietary. :rolleyes:

I try to use the keyboard but if I slide my phone too hard, the phone will power off. Same way if I want to slide my phone back to its original position. I do not know why this is happening. The latest problem I have had is that my phone has a weird screen on it. Four colors from top to bottom: Red, Green, Blue and White. I tried to reset my phone, it had no effect, I tried to take the battery out and see what happened. Also, I tried to reset the phone by pressing the the call button and end button and power button all at the same time. Again nothing worked.

I still get FC. I've tried several different versions and nothing has worked. Build is HD2ONE 0.3.5.

Update: Just tried one last thing.. created a "root/system/app" directory in the HD2ONE folder and copied it there. Still didn't work so I cleared the market data and cache and tried again. It started and it actually loaded the apps and then immediately FC'd. Ugh so close.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] javolin13:
You jinxed me! LOL I am running JDMS rom and just did the vending file to /system/app folder, and it worked for over 1 hr ++ then after a reboot now it FC each time.

SO after looking into it for a while, the reason why it FC is because its signed different than the other Gapps IE, Google framework apk, and others. What we need is the same Gapps that are all signed the same. Once we have those, it should work 100%, i'm going to start testing it with latest updates from the gingerbread release (which i'm assuming has the same signatures)

[Captivate General] Hypercore:
Alright I know that when you flash your phone it voids the warranty, but if you were to lets say flash back to your service providers ROM before returning it would they be able to tell?

I've just bought the Captivate a few days ago but I plan on returning it to Rogers due to the horrible battery life. I'm never at home and need my phone a lot so having a bad battery life isn't an option for me.

The thing is I flashed a custom 2.2 ROM last night. I plan on returning it tomorrow, but I've realized that I voided the warranty. I've downloaded the stock Rogers ROM and can flash it before I go but will they still know some how?

So basically I'm wondering if I'm screwed or not.

Thanks in advanced :)
[Captivate General] peachpuff:
I seriously doubt it, however since you're on rogers you'll need to get rid of that at&t logo upon startup when you flash back to stock so good luck.

Also the 2.2 roms encrypt some of the files in the /efs directory, if rogers digs deep enough and find that out they might figure out that you flashed a rom. Unless you backed it up and restored it... however i doubt you did.
[Captivate General] newter55:
Returned one with no trouble after flashing back to stock at&t. As long as you can get it to look like stock on boot I doubt you will have any trouble, regardless of efs files being altered
