[HTC Incredible S] oyumurtaci:
It has Gorilla Glass (by Corning) which is tempered and resistant but not scratch proof. Eventually, it does get scratched which is why I'd like a screen protector as well.

The problem with screen protectors is they're cut so they cover the front camera and unfortunately that degrades the image quality of a camera that's already pretty limited.

I'll have to look into the XtremeGuard, but the main reason I like ZAGG is I've had their full body kit for my Tytn II for 3 years, and it has seen a ton of abuse. The skin did eventually get scratched, which I e-mailed ZAGG about and they offered a free replacement. I didn't really mind the scratch (it was on one of the side strips) so I didn't bother, but I like the way their representatives handled the situation.
[HTC Incredible S] vido.ardes:
All of the screen protectors I have received with cases for my IS (I have tried 3 different makes) have had a cut-out for the front facing camera

[HTC Incredible S] Charlie360:
Thanks I'll see if they'll post me one over to the UK!
[HTC Incredible S] NardVa:
I ordered me an extreme guard screen protector off ebay for 2.99. Just like Zagg but way cheaper. I was gone do full body for 4.99 but I have my phone in a case. I think a case holds up against the impact of a drop better than a full body skin.
[HTC Incredible S] SuperTraxer:
Zagg and Clear-Coat have both a full body protection for few days...

The Skinomi full body Techskin is also available. I'm wondering, is their screen protector as good as the Zagg's one?
[HTC Incredible S] exaltedbladder:
Full body is out

Full body invisibleshield is out.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Hi,

I posted a thread yesterday asking about distortion of words / writing on my HD7 while scrolling and you can find the link to that thread below if you would like...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12165148#post12165148

But I have a couple other questions with regard to my HD7.

I shut my device off to charge it last night (I have only had it for 1 1/2 days) and it said goodbye on the screen and powered off. When I plugged it into the wall to charge, it turned itself back on again and charged itself while powered up.

I tried again to shut it down to charge but again as soon as I plugged it in it turns itself back on. Is this normal? Can I not charge this device while it is powered off?

I am sure I will have other questions in the future so I ask that you please be patient with me and if this question has been answered already somewhere please forward me to the post.

Thank You in advance...

It's normal. Weird, but normal.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Well I guess that is good to hear and Thank You for responding. It is weird though that you cannot charge this device while it is powered off. :confused:

I have never owned a cell phone that you could not charge while it was off and truth be told, I was always under the impression that when the phone is off and charging that it gets a much better charge than when it is charging while it is powered on. :confused:

Microsoft believe that charging phone with power on better because that thing avoiding phone hugs and crashing after power on as we remmber the wm 6 after going to sleep mode
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Really? I never had any issue with my old Omnia i910 on WM6.1 Pro? Oh well... I guess if this is how Microsoft thinks then who am I to argue? LOL!!!

Is this the same for ALL WP7 phones I wonder?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbonics:
As far as I know, it's the OS, not the phone. So, same for all phones.

As an aside, your phone will charge lots lots lots faster plugged into the wall adapter rather than the PC.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Absolutely... I definitely know this to be true... lol. I still find it weird that the phone restarts itself though when plugging it in to the wall to charge. Should I even bother turning it off first before I plug it in?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbonics:
Nope. No benefit from doing it. I typically leave mine charging at night.

Just tap the screen off when you plug it in, as it'll turn on to the lock screen.

Anyone tried these batterys?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-GOLD-2430mAH-BUSINESS-BATTERY-HTC-T8585-LEO-HD2-/320643980080

2430mAh the dame size as the standard battery seems too good to be true....

Had one of the large batterys with the plastic cover and stand, and because of this, I broke my LCD screen.... the plastic cover for them is too flexible, so my phone bent when it was in my hip pocket .... ouch

With the battery I linked, the phone would keep the rigidity given by the metal battery cover and not have a large bump to flex around......
[HD2 General] boomboomer:
It's a cheap and nasty fake, which is probably weaker than the standard battery. Things which are too good to be true usually are, if it were possible to get that much power into that package then HTC would make one.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Micky_G:
From MicroSD you can only flash .zip files. Otherwise you have to usethe LG utility. But if you have such problems with your phone, try to reflash the rom you want to use and don't forget to wipe data and cache before flashing.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] IamIrene:
okay thx for ur answering

I cam from a BB as well and definitely recommend Go Launcher EX.

Set up Corporate Sync under accounts to sync to your exchange server. I recommend Pure Calendar Widget for displaying any amount of future events in a good format on one of your hgomescreens. Go Contacts for better organization of your contacts. Otherwise, have fun going through the tons of widgets and apps for customizing to your liking.

[Atrix 4G General] pootown:
Alll,

Thanks for the ino, tried them all out and liked ADW best, but probably just cuz of all the transitions. Havent had time to truly understand the benefits. However for most of the weekend I decided it best to get familiar with blue. The homescreen switcher problem drove me a bit nuts in that no matter what I couldnt set the home button to work as a home button, it always switched to whatever default I had used.

On to my main question:

When I use a new launcher to I always have to make a new setup or is there a way that I can get all the widgest and shortcuts over to ADW (or whatever) without doing it manually?

Also, how can I prevent my contacts from bringing over every damn email address I've ever sent to? I set up some favs but I really dont need support@cheerios.com and that.
[Atrix 4G General] co.ag.2005:
In all 3 launchers mentioned in this thread, there is an option under the launcher preferences to save layout / content, etc. to your SD card, that way you can always restore the icon layout. NOTE: when you do this and have widgets on your "pages", the restore layout option within the launchers will not restore the widgets... apparently this is a a limitation in the Android OS

second question: Contacts app -> hit the menu softkey on your phone -> settings -> select "Phone numbers only"

[G Tablet Accessories] studean:
Here's my "rough draft" of a car mount. It works well enough if I push the arm forward so that it rests slightly against the dash. Of course, after taking a closer look at it yesterday when I was swapping the tab hardware out for the cell hardware, I noticed that I had the wrong size nuts on the back, which seems to account for the instability. The mic stand (flexible neck portion) is hollow, so it can be modified to be as flexible or as rigid as needed to keep the stand where you put it -- of course, the more rigid the neck, the harder it is to get it positioned where you want it. The base is a PVC pipe cap sitting on top of (you guessed it) a length of PVC pipe, cut and sized to fit the cupholder in my car. This part is crucial -- you have to get the cupholder right or nothing else will work. I built a second one for the wife's car and hers works, but it's not as stable due to the oddly-sized cupholders. Ideally, you will want the PVC to touch the base of the cupholder and the more form-fitting, the better.

Not present in this version are power wires, but with the hollow neck, it's certainly feasible with a soldering iron, the right charger and a little patience.

Interesting side effect of this particular design (to be remedied in my next model) is the available angles of the brackets when opening and closing around the center point. When fully closed, the metal tabs at the bottom are just slightly too wide to snugly hold my Captivate in landscape mode.

Before any long-term use, you'll want to put some adhesive foam strips on the metal brackets to prevent scratching and probably use an angle grinder to round off the sharp edges in general. The ultimate "clean design" would be to round off the ends of the "X" and mount the T-brackets in the middle of that radius, then run a spring between the two open holes on the base of the T to provide some tension to grip the tablet tighter. Of course, that particular setup would eliminate the ability to use it as a cellphone holder, too, but that's why this is a rough draft and not a daily use device...

hi

i need help on my htc hd2 - stock in bootloader... LOOK PIC

i tryed all HSPL VERSIONS - same error BAD ID

i tryed ORIGINAL ROM - HTC HD2-RUU_Leo_S_Orange_FR-B2B_3.14.73.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO ( DOWNLOADED FROM HTC WITH SERIAL NUMBER) ERROR 244 - INVALID ID

i tryed flashing with sdcard leoimg.nbh but i get error 00058002

can any one advise what could i do - please post links to

[HD2 General] Boradan:
at what % does the install fail?
[HD2 General] foil:
Bad ID means that the rom isn't matching the region of the phone. Sounds to me like the CID got corrupt. You need to create a goldcard, and with that, you can write any rom from any region onto it - just like if it were hardspl'd.

I'm typing this on my phone, but look on here for instructions on how to make a goldcard: you'll need psas,google it. I own it, and can generate you the files for your sdcard's serial number..
[HD2 General] ubejd:

can i contact you at email or ( will it cast me if yes how much)

thanks for replying
[HD2 General] Boradan:
Go here:

http://psas.revskills.de/?q=node/ and download the PSAS free version.

This will only work if you have another windows mobile phone that you can put your card into. Put your card into that phone and connect it to activesync.

Run Rev Skills and select: Menu- Hardware Forensics- WINCE SD Card Utils and select 'get serial and disk ID'

When you get the disk ID, PM it to me or foil and we can generate the goldcard image for you.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimster4389:
Hey guys,

When I first got my Desire I calibrated the battery after the first couple of days (when I found out how to do it), and since then it's been great. But in the last couple of weeks, it seems to get a bit lazy. So I thought I'd try and re-calibrate it.. Booted into recovery, wiped battery stats, did the process again (charge while on, turn off, charge again, etc) And now..well..I unplugged it at 6am and it's flat as a pancake now at 2pm..

My question is, there are so many different methods for calibrating, which would be the best one for me to use right now? It isn't turned on atm, and I don't want to charge it until I know what I'm doing. Hope someone can help me out :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oudbrood:
Maybe the problem is not your battery but a app or widget.

You say, after the calibration it was good.

Have you installed something new?

Edit:

The calibrate method I used is:

- charge full

- disconnect from cable and shutdown phone.

- charge till led is green

- disconnect from cable, start phone and shutdown phone

- charge till led is green

- Disconnect from cable - wipe battery stats

- Done
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimster4389:
Yep that's the method I used.

Just done a complete wipe of everything and re-flashed InsertCoinHD2.0.0

Just gonna leave it with minimal apps, Facebook, eBay, etc for a couple days and see how that goes.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimster4389:
Looks like it hasn't worked :(

88% after 1 hour 27 mins

70% after 2 hours 40 mins

58% after 4 hours 8 mins
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Calibrating your batterie has only to be done once. If you flash a new rom, it's normal for the batterie to go that fast. You should wait a few days before everything is working as it should.

So your focus should be to find a clean rom, don't install any apps and just try it for a few days. After that you could also try messing with havs kernels.

I suppose this is with screen off? You should download current widget from the market and log your batterie usage. If the usage is around 5ma (lower = better) and still have a high batterie drain, then your batterie is damaged. But if the usage is higher then it's a software problem :) But then again, if you flash a new rom every few days it's normal to have high batterie drain.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimster4389:
Just tried it and wow 458mA! I might take my desire back to stock, original RUU and s-on and such.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
That's normal if you have your screen on. You should enable the log function and leave your screen off for a few hours.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimster4389:
Thanks for that :) I've been flashing ROMs and such for a while now, but this is the first time I've had any problem with the battery.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimster4389:
Just a little update.

I figured it would be the kernel I was using (InsertCoinHD 2.0.0) as I'd heard a lot of people have the same trouble. Reflashed to v1.9.5 and the battery is going back to its old self, 61% left after 8 hours with moderate use, since reflashed 3 days ago :) Thanks to all who helped :)

[G Tablet Accessories] smalis:
This works with my 2002 Lexus ES 300, YMMV.

Hardware purchased from ProClipusa.com. (I have no affiliation with ProClip, other than as a satisfied customer).

First piece is the car clip, which seats firmly to the right of the radio panel:

Here is another view of this piece and how it attaches (it is not permanent, and can be removed):

Second piece is the device mount, which attaches to the car mount and to the device, and has a pivot on it. I was already using one that screwed into my Sirius radio, so I unscrewed it from the radio an put velcro on it. I already had velcro on the back of my G-Tab for my folio case, so the G-Tab velcros nicely onto the device mount.

Here is the picture of the device mount:

The rear of the male plate screws into the car mount, and the female plate slides onto the front of the male plate. The device attaches to the female plate.

The car and device mount sit quite firmly in the car. Because the G-Tab is quite a bit larger then the velcroed device mount (which is probably 2-3 inches square), it could attach more firmly, but there is no danger of it falling off.

ProClip has hundreds of car-specific and device-specific mounts, so if they have a car mount that will work in your car, you probably could search the device mounts to find a flat one with a larger surface area than my Sirius mount, for a larger velcro attachment. I have not done this, since the Sirius one works fine for me.

I am not at home, but I will take a picture of the mounted G-Tab later and update.

This is not the cheapest solution, but with the velcro, I now use this mount for the G-Tab, my HTC Inspire, and my Sirius radio.

Works great for me.

UPDATE:

I just took a quick look and they do sell a generic device mount for larger devices, for which they supply 2 sided tape to attach to the device. But, for me, velcro is better:

http://www.proclipusa.com/brodit-de...te-for-tablet-style-devices-215159-13975.aspx

If you are interested, make sure this device mount will attach to the specific car mount that you use.
