LOL! Welcome to the club. Had dust under screen... took it to local store... they replaced screen with one that was all scratched and nicked on edges... I *****ed and had them put my old one back... they said I needed to call Sprint for replacement... I did... got them to send me a replacement... replacement arrived with camera and kickstand all scratched up... *****ed and had them send me new replacement... replacement arrived yesterday all scratched up on the sides... *****ed and had them send me new replacement... they said I have to go through store... I told them I don't have time to keep doing this... asked them to transfer me to retentions... lady was useless and told me there was nothing they could do... I hung up and will most likely switch to T-Mobile when the 4 other lines on my contract ends in April.

I'm just done with this non-sense. Sprint thinks that because it is the cheapest carrier, they can do these things as we'll most likely not switch... well, they just lost a $300+/mo customer here.
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
OHHH, that would have pissed me off... I wouldnt pay my bill and file a complaint with the Sec. of State against them. lol

As far as the OP goes, yeah I would take it in to them and tell them if they don't fix it the right way - you will file a comaplaint against the store and will not be paying any part of the bill untill its correctly taken care of :)
[EVO 4G General] ProvocativeSmell:
Well long story short its fixed. They replaced the screen yet again and everything is as crisp as it was before, no dust under screen. There doesn't appear to be any screen separation but if I push on the screen I can reveal more of that edge on the inside but the screen is not above the edge of the phone but almost flush with it.

I think it depends on the store maybe, this place has been a headache but also a blessing, doing wayyyy more than any other sprint store I have been to and I've been to A LOT lol.

The guy even asked me if it was "rooted" and I was like ummm I don't know? Maybe? He chuckles and says oh I was just wondering cause it had that rooted look. Then he said you know you can make it run at 1200 (which I'm assuming processor speed is what he meant) and I said ya I know but its already fast enough. I couldn't tell if they cared if it was rooted or if he was just curious.
[EVO 4G General] spyke24:
Sprints tech support told my friend he should root his phone because the Roms people put out are easier to fix problems on then stock ones.
[EVO 4G General] Jjday7:
I just had a experience with sprint myself which was horrible and I am still going through it. I had my screen replaced and they left all the screws out of my phone. When I realize it, I went back to the store to tell them and they replaced the screws. I realized then my screen was full of dust. The manager was a complete ass and would not do anything. Then he said he could fix it. They had the phone for an hour and come to find out. All they did was blow th dust even further down into the screen. The dumb asses used a spray gun and put the air through the 3.5mm hole. The problem with that is that is where the dust is getting in.

I called retention and they want me to go to another store to get the run around again. I also got them to confirm the upcoming changes with the perks for yearly upgrades. It's a great day at sprint today. Anyway, I am now back in the same situation with screen full of dust and nobody willing to do anything to fix it. They want me to go to another store but I refuse to burn my gas to deal with another crappy store.
[EVO 4G General] akarol:
I said the same thing. I don't have time to keep trying out different stores. They refuse to do anything about it though. I'm running out of options. I want a new phone or a refurb in good condition. It's not much for someone who pays over $300 monthly to them.
[EVO 4G General] Jjday7:
Well I bit the bullet and got off my ass and went to another store. I got the screen replaced in less than 15 minutes. The guy pulled up the retention notes and fixed it immediatlely. It's sad I had to resort to literally a 45 minute conversation with retention to get this to happen. I have to find a way to block the opening on these phones. The 3.5 mm opening should have been on the side or dare I say the bottom. I know some people don't like that.
[EVO 4G General] chamala2000:
Looks like I’m not the only one with the same problem. My EVO was six months old and died to the point it wouldn’t even power up (no phone) insurance. So they ordered a replacement, this one has light leak everywhere, dinged up speaker phone and couple of dust specks, plus old battery. So I said I want another one. So week later I got another one. Holy ****, the second one was even worse then the first replacement. Light leak everywhere, bunch of dust in left lower corner, dinged up housing. I did not accepted that replacement. Called Sprint and they said they have no authority to tell the store to order me a new one and told me to talk to the store manager (like that will do anything) because they said it’s a cosmetic issue. What pisses me the most is that the warranty on refab. is only 30 DAYS. HTC/ Sprint doesn’t extend warranty to the end of the first unit. This is a total bull****. I lost 6 month of manufacturing warranty. Looks like HTC doesn’t stand for there product like Apple does. I never had those problems with exchanging Iphone’s. Warranty was always extended to the end of the original unit and you couldn’t tell that was a refab. or a brand new unit.

no matter what droid build I put on my SD card be it Froyo or Gingerbread or whatever on first Android boot I get the White Background screen and Green HTC logo and it freezes i've waited over an hour in some cases.

If I take out the battery it just reboots to Windows 6.5.

I have followed all the necessary steps... for example:

Download the 'MCCM SD Build' version.Unzip. Extract the 'Android' folder to root of your SD Card.

- After you have done all steps go into Android folder and tap CLRCAD (for working sound), and after that just tap HaRET

-Booting ..

-Enjoy

Why is this not working ? what am i doing wrong? anyone ??

Have you downloaded a Data.img,

if no then it is possible that your SD card isn't big enough or full.

Hi Folks,

After much searching I have not found satisfactory answers to my questions so I thought I would post.

I was looking at the SuckerPunch kernel and while I know it is for the Captivate, will it work on the Samsung Galaxy S i9000?

If not, is there another SpeedMod based kernel with UV/OC capabilities, up to 1.4 Ghz (so not Voodoo)? I am currently on Super Optimized and looking for a change.

Cheers

So this battery, after the mod, fits right into our G2's without having to use a different cover or anything?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] billyskip:
I just took the red wrapper off of it and it fit snuggly

In terms of weight, does it change much? I'm thinking about picking up this battery if it's a drop-in replacement.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] wwwhershcom:
I just purchased, thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ChronoReverse:
Well, it's certainly cheap so might as well give it a try. I highly doubt it's even close to 1800mAh but hopefully it'll be more than 1300mAh and won't die after 50 cycles.

Can you let us know what the battery life is like, compared to your normal battery, please? I am interested, but have heard too many tales of batteries that promise more but in fact deliver less. It would be great if this gave even 25% more over the standard battery!

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] nguyen925:
Just curious but did you have your internet on the entire time you were doing the test run? I normally turn off my internet and activate it when needed, when I do that battery life for me is about 20 something hours, with mild usage (gaming and phone calling).

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] jaex:
I bought one from mugen site and it is awesome althought it is a little bit pricey but i think it worth. I charge it over night. Unplug it at 7 am and carry with me untill 10pm. My wireless was on the whole time. I have 3 email setup as default. Running sense ui so i believe there is some process running at the back ground. I only make about 30 min to 1 hour call. At 10 pm, i still have 35% life.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] churchmice:
Well, too expensive
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ChronoReverse:
Just received mine. Removing the tab means it'll go into the space but it still won't fit quite right as the battery is slightly too thick for my cover to go back on.

I'll see if I can rectify this =/
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tackleberry:
Same problem here. If u take the red wrapper off i dont think it matters because the black plastic cheap outlined housing is the problem. I think i wasted 8 bucks

From my permarooted 1209mhz G2 with CM7 nightly 6
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ChronoReverse:
Yeah, I've taken the entire thing apart (piecemealed it together) now and while the cover will fit it still bulges out because the battery itself is a tad too thick.

It was a cheap experiment though so I'm not choked. The lesson here is that Incredible/Evo batteries don't fit our phones =(

Just to let you guys know, I bought this one for a little more and it came with 2 batterys and no modification is needed. It says 1800mah but who knows, worth a try. It just came in today, but like I said it needs NO MODIFICATION at all and will fit PERFECT with the wrapper on.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] shadow#:
A quick warning for anyone thinking of trying this

Do not squeeze this battery in your G2

It might destroy your phone! :mad:

I bought one off eBay, removed the red sticker and cut down the plastic (which for mine went all the way around, leaving serious doubts about the 1800mAh) until it nearly fit. The metal battery cell is untouched.

I could get the back cover closed but it slightly pressed against the battery.

No biggie? Wrong!

Now it took me a few days to figure this out but this actually bends or short circuits whatever is required for GPS reception.

If I pop it open the lid rests at about a 15 degree angle and requires very little force to close. Yet the prying effect is enough for the devastating effect.

As soon as I close it, GPS is gone. If I open it up to take the pressure off the battery, all is fine again.

As always, results may vary and if you're lucky it could just work for you.

But be advised that this might actually damage your phone in ways you didn't think of.

I'll try to not set my place on fire while sanding the actual battery cell next.

If anyone could send me an eBay link to the battery that is all battery cell with just a little plastic on the connector side I'd appreciate it.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] danow11:
i have had my mugen 1800 for about 3 days now, and im pretty impressed. No modification required, fits great.

so far im at 65% with 11 hours off charger. Streamed pandora for about and hour earlier, and been texting/emailing off and on throughout the day, occasional xda browsing, and some local car forums.

been in 4g/wifi all day.

my battery life really was pretty great with my stock battery, but its always nice to have that little extra just in case.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] death1246:
This is true I have the same effect ;)

Door will not fully close even with wrapper off and proper cut of corner... **** waste of money.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] thedauntlessone:
Late update, but Mugen is definitely more juice than the stock battery. However, whether it is worth the price tag is the issue. If you can go through a day without recharging then there's no reason for you to get the Mugen because it doesn't last that much longer. Just put it on the charger at night, get a replacement oem when your battery is dying and save yourself 30 bucks.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] smapdi:
I just got my 1800 mAH Mugen battery on Saturday (4/2) and it's been phenomenal.

Did 2 fully cycles and it's holding a charge pretty well. I unplugged my G2 at around 6:30AM EST and haven't plugged it back in. With light use, the battery is still at 17% at 9:39AM EST.

Keep in mind that the stock battery barely got me through a full day with the same amount of use.

So far my money seems to be well spent.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Athrun88:
Got the mugen afew days ago and it's been running great! Cannot be placebo because my usage has not changed since switching from stock battery to the mugen 1800mAH.

With the stock, it would run out of juice at around mid-afternoon and would have to come home to charge it after school before heading to work. With the mugen, I can unplug in the morning, use all day at school AND work, leave it unplugged overnight then use it for school the next day!

These results are not scientific and your mileage may vary, but these are "everyday" usage, which is what people should be more concerned about. Nobody out there can recreate lab results, so why try?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] FallingEdge:
Excuse my ignorance, but the listing is for the EVO Shift 4G. Did you mean to post it in that forum or will it fit in the G2 or was it just a wrong listing?

I bough this battery and it fits our G2's with no modifications at all. Thats why I posted it up. Don't even have to take the wrapper off..... last longer then stock for me. I have been using it for about 2 weeks now. Last through the whole day from 7am to about midnight and before it would be dead by 8PM so Im happy.

two birds, one stone:

get a snap on hard case for the phone. protects it, and allows for not using the stock battery door, while still keeping the bigger battery in place. and only $5 shipped on ebay.
