I scratch my phone because of it ..
[General Accessories] romitkin:
I use a case but not a screen protector. I have never scratched my screen (The Vibrant has this Gorilla glass which actually does what was promised - no scratches).
[General Accessories] speedemonV12:
I never want to use a case, but I need to just in case. cant get myself to go around without a case.
[General Accessories] rag3loop:
Some of the higher quality rubber cases look good on if they're low profile. Hardcases, without exception, are UGLY. They always seem to have bad seams.
[General Accessories] fancy McLeod:
Yes,of course,and even I love collecting special case for my phone.I have many cool cases:D
[General Accessories] darandster2:
Yes, I use one. My phone was pretty expensive (droid-x). I use an otterbox mammoth case, than basically makes my phone a tank.
[General Accessories] tjleeland:
I do exactly the same thing. I don't use a case, but my phone always goes into my right front pocket -- alone.

I hate the bulk that cases add, and today's phone (be it an iPhone or Evo) is designed to withstand a lot. I've accidently dropped my Evo three times now and you can't even tell. It doesn't take much to keep 'em in good condition.

Actually, when I had a case for my iPhone 3G, it trapped dirt like crazy. I would take the case off and the back of the phone would be filthy.

I do use a screen protector, but that's to keep the figureprint smudges down.
[General Accessories] tjleeland:
Exactly. Apple, Motorola, HTC, etc work hard to make a thinner, lighter phone with nice sexy lines, and people hide them in a case that make them fat, bulky, and ugly. Why?

Just say no to cases!
[General Accessories] Csaszar:
Otterbox commuter series for my galaxy s. Great protection without a lot of bulk.
[General Accessories] Retrosid:
Same here, i use one pocked just for the phone.

[General Accessories] baozhu:
yeah I use a TPU argyle clear smoke case and it looks great, doesn't add much to the overall size and protects my phones back and sides from damage. I brought it from amazon for $5+$10shipping to Australia which is pretty gay for me but oh well, if I plan to sell the phone I will easily recover that in comparison to selling a phone with imperfections.

I've been meaning to get a tight grip leather (or leather like) case but can't seem to find any reasonable priced ones for the Garmin A50.

[General Accessories] moodup:
I wanna have one,it's so cool.Which is best?Where can I find it?:)
[General Accessories] chupacabra_evo:
I also have a case for my phone, HTC Evo. Its the defender series OtterBox. I love it except the kickstand that's built into the case is poorly made. I contacted OtterBox about the problem and they will send me a replacement at no cost to me. I highly recommend their cases although it makes the phones extra bulky because of the added protection.
[General Accessories] NightHawk877:
Moodup, get them from Amazon.

[General Accessories] sanseven:
yes, i bought a case for my iphone4
[General Accessories] torikorocks:
the Droid x was made very well. I don't use a case. My phones been thrown, dropped, stepped on and it still looks great. The only defect is a small chip in a hardware key. Its even been dropped in a snow bank.
[General Accessories] FoxFire16:
No, I love the simplicity.
[General Accessories] Seiphr:
My HD2 came with a small leather clip on case. I've tried using screen protectors and gel cases etc in the past, but they've all either been too bulky or ugly.

Stuck with the original in the end! I saw some of them on eBay a while ago when I thought i'd lost mine for about a fiver!

it's too bulky having a case and i like the way it feels and look!

Yep, I use Piel Frama case for my DHD. Have to protect my investment.
[General Accessories] suntam:
Glacier Case

I use a screen cover and rubber case, just basic, but does the job!
[General Accessories] uteehunt:
I put an extended battery in my tbolt and wanted a case for it, but none are made for it with the extended battery in. So, i bought a shell/case holster combo and modified it a bit. Took the clip off and smoothed out the resulting clips, then cut out a piece of the back so the extended battery would fit (using an exacto knife and my benchmade). Works great for me.
[General Accessories] torqtech:
No case here. I always had a case for my nokia but with htc desire the build quality is so robust that i dont feel a need for a case. just the usual screen protector is all i'm using. And anyway there isnt much to be scratched at back ... i 'll just change the back cover when i feel like it.:)
[General Accessories] Jotokun:
I hate cases and wont tolerate one. But I also dedicate an entire pocket to my phone, so there's no chance for it to get scratched by my keys.

Part of why I prefer plastic phones over glass/metal ones. Less chance for damage if dropped.
[General Accessories] LucienLachance:
Yep, have to. It may not be pretty, but it's useful.
[General Accessories] fosselman:
didn't use a case with my 8125, fuse or tilt 2 cause I hate cases for phones with keyboards. with my captivate I felt like I had to get a case because I was so use to bulky phones that it felt too small. I use the body glove case. I also always keep my phone in a pocket by itself and use a screen protector.
[General Accessories] den1m:
i use slim white case, but no any protection on the phone

[General Accessories] obutto:
Learned my lseson 2 days ago...I will be using cases from now on.
[General Accessories] emtee_skull:
Trident Cyclops for my Fascinate. Demo

You can get it cheaper than the manf price, just look around.

Mine is red.

Can't say enough good about it. Sure it adds some bulk. But it is stylish with 4 or 5 color schemes to choose from.

I also have 2 kids under 4 and one in the oven. I need extra protection in case they get a hold of it.

And accidents are just that. You can be as careful as one can and an accident can still happen. To me I want the extra protection.

Whenever I decide to upgrade I should have a mint condition phone to sell on eBay.

[General Accessories] woshiweili:
Forget cases! They make your phones bulky and ugly and the silicone ones makes it hard to take out of your pockets. Just get invisibleshield to prevent it from getting scratches.
[General Accessories] ccathers:
Case

I would use a case if I could find a decent one that would fit my TBolt with the extended battery
[General Accessories] thedefectkid:
Nope! Would take away the sexiness of my phone and that aint happenin
[General Accessories] Hamsn:
I bought many cases, but hardly used any for more than 2-3 days, it just transforms the phone and makes it bulgy, the original premium look is lost.

If I had to choose, I would prefer Silicon case.
[General Accessories] martrzyk:
I'm not using it.. I'm trying to be careful with and there is no need for case using.
[General Accessories] echelonMCRhartgrenade:
Yup I'm using a case. The Otterbox Commuter Series. I really thought this would make my phone bulky, heavy and interfere with the touchscreen but it actually didn't! :)

[General Accessories] Lavrentsii:
Yes, but not for a "normal" reason. Without a case, the G2 feels WAY too thin when typing on the keyboard. I use an otterbox commuter, which solves this plus looks better than having it caseless (IMO).

There are some people out there that no matter how careful they are, something happens to their phone. They need all the help they can get. I got a hardcase for my first DInc. I found that all the dust, dirt, etc that got stuck in the inside corners of the case (between the case and the phone) ended up scratching my phone way more than dropping it ever did. My second DInc is naked ;) and she's a beauty

For my Droid R2D2 i need to make sure it stays pristine and scrathless, so i have a clear case, so that its sexy back shows off and its protected from the falls it may have or the battle it may have with my keys inside my pocket, also got a screen cover to protect its touch screen, that screen cover has saved it from huge deep cuts, but it takes away from the clearness of the screen and also the smoothness of the touchscreenes =[

How is the battery life on the real froyo that was released a few weeks ago?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intruda119:
Not possible by someone who actually uses there phone. I never thought I was a heavy user but seeing replies like above I have to be past the definition of heavy user. With my extended battery I could get 2.5 days on a single charge.

Im also having battery drain with bionix newest rom. Nothings changed in my day-day usage. probably flash another modem or something.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treyvaporizer:
I think I might switch to stock froyo if things don't get better. Or just order a new battery. Because it just drops like a rock. And im using watchdog but it doesn't really help that much. Or could someone with experience with battery drain guide me on how to stop it from happening?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kubernetes:
Something tells me you have a bad battery if you've always had battery issues. Did you get your phone from T-Mobile? If so call them and tell them your battery is bad--they should send you a new one for free.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cbzeej:
I flashed on saturday and started having issues with the battery on monday. On tuesday my battery drained in less than 5 HOURS! I reconditioned the battery and added juice defender @ 5 this morning. I just plugged in my charger about 20 minutes ago. Went down to 5%.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treyvaporizer:
Yes I got it from t-mobile but I have not used stock long enough to see whether it was just a rom issue. I have only flashed team whiskeys roms and they seem to kill my battery. Nero v3 was the best but still wasn't great. I leave around 6:30 in the morning and maybe use the phone to get on xda, engadget, facebook, etc for about 1 hour, But my battery drops like a rock when I do this. And ever since bionix v it has only gotten worse. From that one hr of usage it drops 40 percent. Is hsdpa that big of a battery-killer? Because on wifi it seems to do a little better. Idk if this is just a network issue or what? Like right now it dropped 2 percent just from typing this up. brightness is less than half and everything is set to manually refresh. Wth?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treyvaporizer:
So you are having issues as well?

Everything else seems to be fine. The consistency of the battery is weird..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endo689:
Had terrible battery life as well with bionix v. Double checked to see if anything was running in the background and reconditioned my battery. Even then I was still getting atrocious battery life. Oh well I ended up switching back to axura which imo offers great performance and battery life. Not saying TW roms are bad (nero v3 was amazing) give Masters axura a shot if you haven't.

Seems to be dying much faster in standby mode

Edit: nevermind it seems to be doing well enough for the time being. Talked on the phone for 1 hour, texted, and went on xda and engadget. It is at 70%. On standby mode it ia doing loads better after reconditioning. Does losing 30% to doing stuff like that sound about right? Battery left says I have 7 hours 58 min remaining
[Defy General] Darkcaptain:
first, sorry for my english

Camera Flash does not work with any ROM... :(

I tried all the ROMS available ... stopped working after the Chinese ROM Froyo 2.2, But now no longer works with any ROM, or 3.4.2 UK or Roms Eclair etc...

But I can not access the Developer Forum, I've put it here ... I know there are more users having the same problem

Repeat, sorry for my english and Thanks for the Help.
[Defy General] Foxhound.kl:
I have exactly the same problem. Since china 2.2 sbf and rom, every rom and firmware exhibits the flash either not working on apps, or is out of sync with a blue tinge. I've tried every combination of fixes out so far, but nothing works. Will keep trying things out and post here if I find anything.
[Defy General] Darkcaptain:
Yes, I saw in the other section you had the same problem .. several days trying things and more things, and ROMS of all types, but does not work any ways ... will have been spoiled by Hardware? coincidence as the Chinese Rom :(

On me, the flash does not work none time, only a very small light blue-green

If you find anything, any minor detail, let me know please.

Thanks
[Defy General] Perilla_:
I have to test more, but mine has low light and light borders are greeny.
[Defy General] K r i ll e:
Have the same problem. Flashed the chinese rom just a few days ago following a guide and the flash is now weak and greenish even when I'm back on my stockrom.

Whats strange is that I tried this rom following a guide several weeks ago, flashing only the 2.2 bootloader and using a nandroid backup. The flash just worked one time, so I went back to my stock rom, 2.21, again and the flash worked as before.

I think I have tried flashing the whole chinese rom and then gone back to stock with no prob before also. It was just this last time the flash stopped working as it should, no matter witch safe rom I now flash again.

I have tried the uk 2.2 with dowgradebility to get the flash working as explained by Higgsy but no go.

The only thing I can think of is that when you try to use the flash to many times when you are on the chinese froyo rom the flash gets damaged somehow.

[Defy General] mimel:
Did you guys notice that there's a black or dark yellow spot in the middle of the flash light? Many people who had this weak green light problem reported that their flash lights are like so because it's been burnt.
[Defy General] Foxhound.kl:
Looking at the LED, there's a slighty darker yellow spot in the middle, but not that dark, just a slight shade above the outer part. Not sure if its burnt out to be honest, becasue when the flash does work, its pretty bright and lights up what i'm pointing it at, but the moment the camera captures the image, the flash is already off, so its just not in sync with the image capture. The blue/green tinge comes after the bright flash, just as it ends. Can you tell me where the burnt out LEDs are being reported mimel?
[Defy General] Darkcaptain:
I have it all yellow, I no see black spot.

Since the Chinese Rom, did not run the Flash, no weak, no strong, not be in sync, none of this, only not work, only shows a very very small light blue-green.

I would like to see a picture of a burned Flash.

Thanks for all the help and sorry for my English.
