[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Matty Mo:
Ive actually started to notice that Sprint actually makes nice cases. I really like the look of this one and the blue and black one
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] dkd711:
Nice! Just got one from Ebay for $18 shipped. Thanks for the heads up!

Update... 2-26-11

I noticed my case was rubbing when sliding my keyboard out so I sanded it down about the thickness of sheet of 20lb paper with some 2000 grit sandpaper taped to my desk. Just hold it as flat as possible and rub back and forth for about 10 secs on both ends and test fit it back onto the phone. Phone now slides just as smooth as if it was naked. Enjoy this 5 min fix.

Here's a picture of the two spots to sand down.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] cafecivet:
Would you please be able to link to where you got this on eBay? Want to make sure I get the right one.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] kbrn:
If you get it from eBay you won't get the 1 year free replacement that you get from sprint.

it's cheaper but at the end if you look at it if something happens to it they replace it no questions asked (quoting the sprint store guy)
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] silex:
So now after awhile the holster clip is starting to have a little play in it and sometimes it squeaks.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] wireless.praying.mantis:
The cases for the HTC EVO Shift 4G are manufactured by two third party companies, Amzer and Technocel. The only OEM case sold by Sprint for it is the leather one.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] kellysa111:
I got the Blue one. I have trouble taking the phone out of the holseter.

But other than that, its cool.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] jhunterb18:
I just picked up this case yesterday. It feels like a good case that actually protects the phone. I know it really works because this morning I had it cliped to my jeans pocket and it was raining. I went to warm up the car and kinda ran to the car and the clip slid off my pocket and fell hard to the street. The case has a couple scratches where the rubber is on the back. but thats really it.

Pros: Good hard plastic, swivel clip holster.

Cons: hard to get grip when sliding the keyboard open, clip doesn't hold well unless cliped to belt.

I would recomend it to other shift owners.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] bobtsunam:
I've had this case for about a month and a half. Great hard case. Definitely buy it from the sprint store. I have dropped my phone twice. And while this case did its job in protecting my phone, the front bezel did not withstand the impact. The clips that hold the pieces on are very weak. Glad I got it from the store for a hassle-free replacement. The swivel clip will loosen up and tend to squeak after heavy use. I found that if you put a drop of light-weight oil or wd-40 at the swivel joint it clears the squeak right up. Nothing you can do about the loose swivel. All in all very pleased. I don't use the physical keyboard so never really noticed the slide action. I wouldn't recommend sanding the clips down whatsoever. They are thin and weak to begin with, so even taking a few thousandths of an inch off will decrease the rigidity of those already weak clips. Just a heads up.

[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] kbrn:
Today I went back to the sprint store cause I messed up my case after 6 months,

It wasn't really all messed up it just started break a little but since they said "NO QUESTIONS ASKED" I decided to take it back, I had my receipt and everything and I told the guy @ the store that it was messed up and he asked me if I wanted it replaced or money back.. I should of take the money back offer since I own now a Otterbox case, but I thought also what the hell? what if that one messes up? at least I have a backup .

The funny thing is that the guy didn't even look @ the receipt and gave me a new one just like that LOL.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Rooster85:
Wait until your otterbox breaks, I sent them an email. They asked for a shipping address and I got my new case in 2 weeks.... never provided proof of purchase.

Sent from my MiuiSpeedy
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] kbrn:
wow!

I got my otterbox from amazon so I doubt I can do something like you.

I like my otterbox a lot even though it's bulkier than this case. I haven't dropped my phone not even a single time since I got it.. unlike my samsung moment, never got a case for it and dropped it like 3 times making fugly dents to it but since sprint replaced my first Moment a month before I upgraded to the Shift I still have a pretty much brand new Samsung Moment that I use as my mp3/camera/toy lol.

[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Rooster85:
Two clips that hold the front of the case on broke

Sent from my MiuiSpeedy
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] kbrn:
Guess what? one of my otterbox clips broke!

I did what you did! I emailed otterbox and told them about it and my replacement is on it's way.. !

That's what I call Great customer service!
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Geekaholic:
I have the Sprint case described by the OP, and I'm mostly happy with it. I'd rate it a 4 out of 5.

A couple of nitpicky items:

You have to be careful to align the phone correctly when sliding it into the holster. If you go in at a slight angle, the corner of the holster will wedge itself between the front bezel and the case, and it's a pain to get it back out w/out breaking stuff.

The little tabs that hold the case on are thin and fragile, and can easily break off when you remove the case. I've had to replace my case twice because one or more tabs broke off the front piece.

The case does make the keyboard harder to slide out, but I like the firmer action, so that's not a problem. YMMV.

Sent from my toilet.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] mcbride731:
that's a pretty nice one actually. i bought the Otter Box one and it was too bulky. ended up going with a cheap white one that does the same thing and doesn't weight a ton lol.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] EarlZ:
Is a theme for the SGS that ONLY changes the notification bar and nothing else?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Jumba:
Not possible, the notification bar/status bar gfx are part of the system files. At this stage you cant replace one without replacing the other.

You should read up a bit on how to do this, it's not that hard to do yourself if it's only replacing the graphics (just a matter of copying the relevant pngs from one theme to your own). But changing text colours isn't so easy.

I got a used HD2 with a T-Mobile logo on top and 16GB MicroSD card inside. Any idea if this is the US or UK version? There was no box.

Also, how do I go about changing its OS to Windows 7.

Thanks!
[HD2 General] Archer:
If it's a US version then the call and end-call buttons are green and red respectively.

As for getting WP7 on your phone, you just need to read, read, read! There's LOTS of discussion about this in the forums, so just have a look round and you'll find all the info you need.

Have fun mate :)

I bought a tmo us version too,arrived yesterday, hard to find here in Europe, one of the advantages is that it has 1024 mb of rom memory, one of the disavantages is that you have to be extra carefull in installing custom roms, they might be incompatible, I just dont know if there]s any difference between android roms for the 512 leo and 1024 leo, still reading, just take your time reading, there]s a lot of info here in forum..

I've looked all over, but I can't seem to find much info about NOT being able to send Calendar invites from the Stock Calendar and E-mail app. My calendar is updating, but I cannot send invites. (rather the invite never gets sent)

I came across something saying I need to send the calendar entry as an attachment, but I don't exactly know how.

Crazy thng is, when I add people, they show up in the calendar as being invited, but the invite never gets received by them.

Any help? I know I can use Touchdown and Roadsync, but I don't think I should have to pay 20 dollars to do something that most devices can do for free.....Just my opinion though.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianlp:
The attachment is an .ICS file, which has all the calendar details and recipients names inside. Calendar generates it, but email sends it.

I don't use that App, but if you don't have Outlook, then Exchange is supposed to perform that task via Touchdown. Check your Touchdown config.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeyb111:

Is there a fix for this? I can't tell my friends to change it as facebook automatically changes it to 44. All I would need is my phone to know to add a '+' to all facebook numbers and it would be ok.

Everytime I flash I go back to stock unless its a same rom.

Ex. I was on darky 7.2 I just downloaded the rom on my phone via dolphin. Just used rom manager to get 8.0.

But can I do this for all roms? I'm kinda confused cause some say you can and some say you can't..

Sent from my phone
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
You do not have to. You should disable lag fix, clear cache and davlik cache, prior. Flashing back to stock is cleaner, especially if you are going from a rom with one base to one with another. You can always try without going to stock and flash stock if something goes wrong.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opcow:
I never do. I just boot to recovery and flash. If I'm using a different kernel I'll reboot to recovery then check my lagfix options and then reboot.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GGXtreme:
No need to flash back to stock. If the ROM is a 'no-wipe ROM', install like you normally would through CWM/Recovery. If you have problems, or if the ROM is a 'wipe' ROM, clear cache and data in CWM and install. If you still have problems and nothing else seems to be helping, try reverting to stock and starting fresh.

Reverting to stock between ROM's is an unnecessary extra step that generally adds the risk of Odin failure/incompatibility (which can result in a soft-bricked or hard-bricked phone).

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Burning_aces:
So after looking through the home screens I see there are multiple choices each with its own positives and negatives, I was wondering what the XDA users prefer?

As far as I can see there is:

*HTC Sense

*ADW Launcher

*GO Launcher

*Launcher Pro

*HeLauncher

*Zeam

*A few different gingerbread launchers

Those are the more heard of ones. So back to the original question, what is the "best" launcher?

definition of "best" is open to interpretation ;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liljom:
Sense or Zeam

Sense for strong devices

Zeam for the weaker ones

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grant Barker:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Burning_aces:
I'll try launcher pro, if I dislike it back to sense :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funfair:
My vote goes to Launcher pro. The customizability of the launcher is very nice.

Sense on the other hand has been tweaked to the end. The widgets are great. Only thing is, I don't like the big launcher taking up so much space, with only 3 functions. Where the customize button is the least usefull of the three lol. Furthermore, sense can be quite slow sometimes.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grant Barker:
You might try CircleLauncher Light too (or the paid version).

It's a Widget but it's not bad.

Example here.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruchern:
Launcher Pro Plus. Uses less power than Sense UI.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Burning_aces:
Can you use launcher pro plus on Cyanogen Mod or is there a way to stop sense starting up on leeroids rom?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrYuiM:
You can use Launcher Pro on any ROM and on Sense Roms you can't remoove sense. If you don't want sense then Cyanogen or MIUI is the way for you.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erezak:
Personally, I like HTC widgets, so I'm going with Sense.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Burning_aces:
I agree that is one thing I like about HTC Sense is their widgets.

What Cyanogen version should I use if I chose to?

Oh ok never really looked at MIUI

I do like leeroids though..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigdhd:
If your happy with how sense looks it works fine.

If you like to completly control look of phone launcherpro or adw ex are awsome.

I'm firmly settled now on Launcherpro Plus using Non-Sense version of Revolution rom to get rid of all the htc sense stuff and love it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicopilami:
Zeam

My vote goes for Zeam...

I used Launcher Pro (which I bought) for a long time, but I found it very heavy after trying Zeam launcher;

I find Zeam Launcher is quite the same as Launcher Pro, but lighter...:)

(My Desire HD is running under CyanogenMod 6.1.3 right now)

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
I've tried ADW and LP when I had a Hero but always come back to Sense because I like the HTC Widgets, specifically the flip clock and all the settings widgets.

If it wasn't for that, I'd probably go with LP as it seems the most customizable.

Don't forget you can still modify the look of Sense if you don't mind editing the framework-res.apk or using some of the custom mods and themes that people on XDA have created.
