Do not buy Phantomskinz for Evo. They sent me two of them. I installed and left on for 24 hours. My first impressions was "Wow!". Not much orange peel and feels nice. I have it on wife's iphone and sony camera, but they dont go through the same abuse as my Evo. I usually keep my EVO and carkeys in the same pocket. A few days later there is wrinkles all over my skin and it doesnt heal itself. Thought maybe defective, so i applied the second skin. A few days later same issue. Contacted their customer service and here is their response:

"Issue is the glass screen of the Evo. We call it a hardened glass screen. Unfortunately it reacts differently to the skin then normal devices would and the skin does not heal as it would on other devices. However, we never recommend keeping your phone in the same pocket as your keys. Our skinz are made to self heal small scratches and dents but this is pushing it a little far. I would recommend installing the second Evo Screen that was included in your kit if it is still available. I would also recommend separating your keys and cell phone."

I bought the skin so i can protect my phone from the car keys and she's telling me to keep them separate. Also, i moved from regular plastic screen protector and never had this issue. When i told them i used up both screens included, they asked to go through normal warranty and pay $3 for a replacement skin. Pay more money for skin they admit does not work on my Evo. No thank you. I have ordered from BestSkinEver and will review once i apply it.

I've attached some photos and video that I sent to their customer service.

Just wanted you guys to know that my local Sprint store repair center guy told me last week that if I put an invisibleshield on my phone, it'll void the warranty because it requires water to put it on.

I've got the invisibleshield on my iPad and love it...can anyone confirm this from their local Sprint repair center?
[EVO 4G Accessories] gqukyo:
I use stealthguards and for the most part they're great. I have never used any solution like those before on my previous phones so I don't know how it compares to all the other "self healing clear skins" but for the stealthguards, u do notice its not as clear as normal screen protectors especially when the screen is off but the I personally love the feel of it and it works great. I've noticed that at the malls they have kiosks that sell "Ghost Armor" clear protectors and they apply it on the spot for you so you can also try those...

EDIT: This has been resolved, at the expense of my own ignorance and embarrassment! Thanks for the help, folks.

For whatever reason, all of a sudden, I can't seem to long press on any icons or on the wall itself on my ADW Launcher home screens. So I can't move or delete icons or widgets nor add any new widgets and etc. from that "add" menu. However, I can long press in the app drawer and in folders, and basically anywhere in the phone except for the home screen.

I've tried clearing cache, reverting back to stock launcher (where I can long press fine anywhere), resetting ADW, and rebooting my phone, etc. Nothing seems to fix it. Holding down on an icon will just result in the orange highlight staying on indefinitely.

Clearly it's an issue with ADW, but has anyone experienced this?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zeiroe:
did you unlock adw in the menu? you may have locked the desktop.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zephiK:

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] onthecouchagain:
Download "Home Switcher" from the Market (free). Open it, then hit "Clear Default" on the bottom. It'll bring you to your current launcher's system setting menu, then just hit "Clear defaults" near the bottom. Next time you hit your Home key, it'll ask what launcher you want; pick and choose and choose to make it default or not.

Hope that helps.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zephiK:
Or Menu -> [ADW Options -> Phone Settings (if using ADW) ] Applications -> Manage Applications -> Go to your launcher -> clear defaults

^^ If you know what launcher, you should anyways.

i have the SAME exact problem...i am running the new adw launcher ex and i can't longpress anything on the desktop

HOW do you unlock the desktop??? (like it was mentioned above^^)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zephiK:

to unlock/lock the desktop...simply click the settings button when on the home screen (the 2nd from the left on mytouch 4g) and then click "more" and then lock/unlock desktop.

I notice that on some websites, including the Google Android developer website, scrolling doesn't work using default browser, Xscope, and Dolphin.

Is there any fix for this?

Jim
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] aaltieri:
I've run into this on several sites on both the Tab and my Dinc. What I do is zoom in or out just the smallest bit, and then I can scroll all over the place without issue.

I have this issue a lot with Outlook webmail, CNN, Forbes, my local TV stations and New Egg. I do NOT have this problem on ebay, Fox, and youtube. Very strange.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
Thanks. I'll give that a try and post back.

The link above is one example, the zoom trick didn't work on

Jim
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] aaltieri:
Interesting. I can't scroll at all either. I'm testing the standard browser and dolphin on Vegan. The page does scroll just fine on my Dinc running Sky Raider Athena. Not sure why.

--mop
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
It's kind of funny (in an ironic way) that that's a Google site (Google ==> Android) :)...

I also tried default, Dolphin, Miren and Xscope. Same on all of them. I thought that Xscope had the best chance of working, because the developer says that Dolphin and Miren are based on default (Webkit, I think), but no luck there.

What is "Dinc" and "Sky Raider Athena"?

Jim
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] aaltieri:
Droid Incredible running the Sky Raider Athena ROM. I also tried the OMGB ROM and the age scrolled ok. So I'm not sure why the G Tab won't scroll right.

But yeah...it is funny that its an android site causing problems.

--mop
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
Was that ROM Froyo/2.2? Maybe that's the difference? I kind of think that those pages have a log of Javascript and stuff like DHTML, so maybe the engine that is handling either of those in Froyo is messing up?

Jim
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] carpshow:
Webpage scrolling issue solved(at least in my case)

I know this reply is to an old post, but I recently found a solution to this issue, as I was experiencing the same problem with multiple browsers. Many webpages simply would not scroll without zooming in & out or rotating my phone(Droid 4). The problem in my case was solved by Unchecking/Disabling the "Auto-Fit Webpages" option. This has worked for me using the default browser in Android 4.04 and Dolphin browser as well. I do not see this option in firefox, but firefox seems to not have this issue as predominately as other browsers. Hope this post helps someone!

Sorry if this has been asked before but search on this site really does not work so well. I have a game on my NC but it does not fit on the screen, is there a work around for this? Thanks.
[Nook Color General] supersoulfly:
you need to get an app from the market called Spare Parts.

The solution requires a couple reboots and the repeated clicking of the compatibility mode in the Spare Parts app.

when flashing the build for cm7 could i do it using ClockWork Mod v2.5.1.2 or is there a special recovery i need to flash before trying to put cm7

reason i ask is because on the MT4G you need to flash recovery to v3.0.0.0+ before flashing cm7 build

if someone could please responf on this thread or pm me would be awesome!

Thank You
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bomber889:
pretty sure you can just flash it the regular way.. wouldn't see why not as the gingerbread roms are flashed through the regular cwm also

my next question, i tried rooting the phone using the unrevoked program but after it tries running the root it come with an error

"ERROR:Failed to get root. Is your Firmware too new?"

does anyone know anything about this?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtj1825:
well sounds like you already have the latest Clockwork installed? if so, I believe UnRevoked comes with a downgraded version so I would try and downgrade the version on your phone see if it helps
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jlom117:
Well I'm able to go into recovery it's just when I try and use rom manager or titanium backup it comes up saying the phone doesn't have root privileges so I thought it wasnt rooted properly. If I'm rooted because I can go into recovery and it shows s= off in h boot then how do I fix the privileges part of it all?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokedroid:
This happened to me after I used unrevoked. It ran successfully, I tested w/ rom manager and it worked. I then rebooted a few minutes later and tried using several other root apps and none could obtain root privelages. So, I flashed a custom ROM (cyanogen 6.1) then had full root access again. Maybe that will help?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jlom117:
ok cool ill try that! THANKS! :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete_kowalski83:

Hello I recently flashed my wifes phone to cricket but I cannot update through *228..i was able to get internet working but with only 1x. I was wondering if anybody knows how I can update it and to get 3G. Thanks in advance..

I was able to get 3G but I still cannot update with *228. I loaded 3220.prl.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejdavis72:
Try ##778# on your dialpad then go into the Security settings and under HDR AN Auth and PPP USER ID and S.IP DUN Username, make sure they are set to "your10digitnumber@mycricket.com" and under HDR AN Passsord and PPP PASSWORD make sure it is "cricket".

Check the M.IP Default Profile too. make sure NAI and DUN NAI is set to "your10digitnumber@mycricket.com" and under HA Shared Secret and AAA Shared Secret, they are set to "cricket"

Under M.IP Settings make sure the Number of profiles is set to "1" and the Active User Profile Index is set to "0" and the MIP MODE is set to Simple IP Only.

Try that and see if it works.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejdavis72:
PRL

And also, you can try this PRL, it is the Cricket Nationwide Roaming EVDO PRL. it should work for the OTA (*228) Programming. But remember that you must check the EPST Settings under "security" and "M.IP Default Profile" after you OTA cause they will revert back to Verizon settings. Sometimes you have to *228 more than once to get it to work.

I had to zip the PRL, so just extract it and then put it on your SD card and update your PRL with it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigshotrob22:
I did all that last night with qpst. I am able to get 3G now because I manually updated my PRL to 3220 (or something like that). I have everything working like talk, text, MMS but I cant update through *228. Thanks for your response.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigshotrob22:
Ok thanks. I was looking for that PRL. I had the same issue with my ERIS after I would update (*228) everything would revert back to vzw. I appreciate your help.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejdavis72:
No problem! Hope it works for ya! I posted these things over in Token's Cricket ROM section in response to you question over there too. Maybe it will help some of them with the same problems.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigshotrob22:
I updated it but still a no go on the *228 update.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejdavis72:
Try *22807 and see if that works.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigshotrob22:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejdavis72:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigshotrob22:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRage:
Hey man what's going on. Guess I've been a member here for long enough that I've gleaned far more than enough information and software from here that it's time I start posting and helping out others myself.

I am 99% I know how to solve your problem since I talked my brother out of his brand new HTC Droid Incredible a few days ago and I ran into the same problem as you at one point but as of approximately 6hrs ago I can happily tell you I have fully flashed my Dinc to the Cricket network here in Reno, Nevada with a PayGo Unlimited account for which I pay $40 a month and I am now able to do the *228 update after 3 days of trying and failing no matter how many bajillion (seemingly heheh) different prl's or other things I tried. (rofl I got like 40 cricket prl files now, maybe I should make my own site just for cricket prls lol)

Now, you say you flashed your wife's phone to cricket. Tell me did she already have a cricket account from which you are using the MDN and MIN to program her Dinc with? If something like this is the case then I am wondering if you have tried dialing 611 and talking to a cricket rep to have them change the MEID on the account to the MEID of the Dinc?

Let me know :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigshotrob22:
Yes she had an account previous to her Dinc so after i flashed her phone I called and got the MDN and MIN from cricket and also I gave them the MEID from the DINC..she has service but I just can't get the phone to get the OTA update and like you I've tried at least 30 prl's. Currently I have 32400 prl loaded on her phone with no problems but I know that's not the prl she is supposed to be using. By the way I live in tucson az..Thanks for your reply

hey buddy i just noticed that you are from tucson as well!

well let me tell you that i have flashed android phones to cricket (my own) like the evo, droid 1, eris and incredible. ad let me tell you its not as hard as it seems or people make it seem, so here it is! the attached zip file contains OUR NEW NATION WIDE PRL and flashing instructions. you do not need QPST if your phone is already unlocked with 000000 if you dial ##778.

anyways just put the prl on sdcard then dial ##778 then password is:000000

go to PRL>update PRL> then choose the prl i have attached then follow the instructions from step 3 (skip 1, 2) without skipping anything and you should have your web mms set up!!

however if you run to any problems PM me and ill help you or i can either meet up with you here in the southwest of town and ill do it for you.

Kiyori could be please specify your source.........the upgrade still seems a little hazy.

Further, I read that the galaxy s has been discontinued in india..............so why is this confusion still existing in your mind. You might not find the phone in the market.

And to your bad luck, neither is the Nexus S seeming to launch in India immediately. Google isn't a company which keeps india in its priority list...........so we could not see the nexus S launch in next 4-6 months for sure. Maybe we might see the romoured Galaxy S2 before that if samsung goes in for one more 100+ countries simultaneously launch as it did for the Galaxy S. ;-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gaurav.Stallion:
I enquired from the sales department of samsung, I dont know how much of this is true, but they said that there is a shortage of Super Amoled screens so they had to stop supply of Galaxy S in India, it should be back by january end, and apparently the Nexus S is to be launched by feburary mid.

I have a question for anyone well informed on SDHC class ratings.

I have been leaning towards purchasing a 32gb microsd card for my adam. My question is–would a class 10 be worth the extra $40-50 compared to a lower class?

The main pro i have seen spoken of is the rate of transfer is greatly increased with the higher class rating. Other than that what would a basic music listener, e-book reader, or movie viewer gain from a higher class?

I’m used to going out and getting the best there is only to be faced with the fact that the best at the moment is not always the best for me or my pocket book… lol

It's certainly possible we'll get it. HTC and Sprint have been treating the Evo very well. It's still a flagship device for Sprint.
[EVO 4G General] baloniman612:
At the very least, any minor annoyances, lag, or general feeling of choppiness will be phased out (im looking at you, bottom of app drawer) due to gingerbread finally allowing the launcher, as well as pretty much every other native app to use the phones gpu for hardware acceleration. Im hoping this works out well for us, but since we know the EVO's gpu isn't exactly a monster... oh well, I have an upgrade anyway :)
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
That's actually not true. 2.3 still doesn't have full HW acceleration.
