I love my HD2.... BUT - HD2 General

Who is the idiot designer who thought it would be a good idea to design it so it wobbles from side to side when trying to use it on a flat surface....... really..... really HTC ?

the first complaint thread where i know exactly what the op means and i agree completely

hope it isn`t the sign, tjat HTC is going apple way..

I'm guessing you do not want to use a case? I'm using the Capdase Alumor Case and it's great and the phone doesn't wobble if I put it down to type on it.

Hello guys, good night.....

the camera design really suxx ;(
but hey.. i found out that the lens ins under the main cover, and that thingy wich makes our device wobble around is just a protection.. is this possible? so we could probably just crack it away.. but im too scared to do it :333

If i put mine down. I put it on top of the leather case it came with and it doesn't wobble when used!

I'm not the best first thing in the morning, but that has made me chuckle!! How far will this meat-sausage thing go? I have bad visions....!
Lucky me I've gone and watched that link, otherwise I would've left this thread with a big misunderstandment in mind...

Hmm, could be worth testing not-dogs, if its the protein that makes the real ones work then they should work just as well as the real thing!
Edit - *ponders* I bet theres a niche market for vegetarian alternatives to meat stylii, , , *hmmmm*
i just tested a chunk of beef from my pasty (really!!!) and it flippin worked!
did leave a bit of a greasy smear on the screen. this idea needs some tweaking

Do you use a meat stylus to engage in textual intercourse?
I ventured out last night and it was cold, cold, cold!
I had two pairs of gloves on and my phone rang.
I wasnt going to take them of so I slide unlocked and answered with my nose!!!!!!!!!!!

Korean sausages (and Japanese ones) are wrapped in plastic. They are not greasy at all. You'll need to unwrap it before you can eat it. It is a popular snack for kids.

But it won't work when they're not unwrapped, right?
I can't believe we're actually discussing the use of sausages as a stylus replacement on two pages now...

Anything would be better than the capacitive stylus for the ip**ne that Maplin sells.

Red Htc Evo

Got bored of painting xbox 360 controllers and cases, tried my evo..
Opinions?
Steps:
1 Disassemble phone (Take off back cover, unscrew frame)
2 mask off non paint areas
3 sand
4 primed painted with Dupli-Color Adhesion Promoter (3 light coats)
5 painted color (Krylon Fusion 3 light coats)
6 painted clear coat(Krylon Fusion 3 light coats)
7 reassembled.
In my opinion, you need a new camera. Or maybe I need to get my eyes checked. I'd ask for a second opinion.

Hmmmm....if only there was red carbon fiber dinoc. ;(
Looks good, but slightly to much like the red xbox controller for my tastes.
i guess the thread title was "check the quality of my camera"
phone looks good. Glad to see you made it your own.

Yeah, I wanted to get a glossy paint like underneath the kickstand.
The paint was too expensive as it was automotive paint... but i think it came out pretty good.

Orange peel much? Maybe its the camera but it looks like the finish on a refrigerator.
hats off for the idea tho. But I like black personally lol.
ehh its ok to me but i like the stock better in my opinion i guess i like my electronics clean looking
The camera doesn't do it justice, it actually is very slick and works well with the red inside and under the kickstand..ect..
i love it
what kind of paint did you use?
how did you paint the sides?
Edit:btw it looks great love the red,but im just lookingto color the saids.
Don't pay any attention to those that bash! They have their insecurities that need to be displaced by putting others down. This planet would be much better without them!
Like the saying goes: "mean people suck"!

Need to water proof my vibrant

in a week I'm gonna be going to a concert. I need to get my phone waterproof prior to the concert. I'm gonna go cheap easy and efficient. my initial idea was use 2 condoms just to prevent liquid from getting in on the phone. then I started to think I'll need the camera to take pictures and video but theres condoms covering the camera and taking away from the clarity. Its there any easy easy way to achieve this.

Yes! Haha classic
Isnt there lube in most condoms ? Wouldn't that mess up something? It's been a while since I used one,probably explains my three kids existing

Yes, most do. But, you can get "dry" condoms. Problem with those is that they really aren't clear.
Double seal ziploc bag would do the OP better.
(see, this post/thread has nothing to do with modding...hehe)
Yeah.. I was going to say not go the the ones with lube lol...
That would be funny
A good clean Saran Wrap job may work. Its Cheap to try. Test it out. It may cost you a few feet of clear plastic wrap. a couple layers may do the trick
shrink wrap like you put over your window in the winter time at least those of us who live up north

Funny but you might have better luck burning the seams closed with a lighter rather than trusting the ziplock itself old school baggie style

A vacuum sealer (the ones for food)...they heat seal. Or dip it in hot wax. (No seriously...don't do that).

yeah, shrink wrap would work well. I used to mess with one at my old job, if you find a place that shrink wraps, they might even be nice and just do it for you, I imagine you can still use the touch screen without difficulty too. What on EARTH is intended to happen at this concert? I've been to a few with my vibrant and it was never at any risk of being submerged in water?? Ha

Well, sounds like all he wants to do is avoid it getting wet from rain. And it would do the trick. But, these would do it even better. I know for a fact that these work, as I have used them before when kayaking.

2 funny things about the new refurb i got!

So i just got my refurb a week later.
I noticed some things...
1) The plastic it came with had a little hole for the FFC lol.
2) the camera band-outside is green instead of clear like my old one... is this a different camera or something?
and....
IT HAS 2.2!!!!!!!!!!!
A modified phone? you should change it again, or stay if you like FFC?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
the camera's on refurb/replacement phones have this little blue platsic stuff to protect the camera bezel in travel. it's not a solid sheet, it's just a "ring".
is that supposed to be funny because tmo screw you over ? PPP j/k

Sorry, can you clarify if you are throwing your phone on the ground in an effort to fix this? If so, stop. Seriously, don't do it.
Looks like dirt on the lens. Is it on every picture you take?

I agree with this but to me it looks like maybe small pieces of broken plastic or glass between the lens.. the only way to remove this would be to open the phone and clean it out, I wouldn't recommend doing this yourself though.. maybe try to contact your local HTC repair centre and see if they would be able to do this for you.
@ronalgps: sounds like you have maybe dislodged the camera or broken the connection in some way from the fall.. as I said above try to contact your local HTC repair centre and see if they can fix this for you.

like I said.. sounds like something is in between the lens so depending on how much you move the phone maybe they move out of place for a while.
