Easy and not ugly (like sprint's mount) idea for windshield mount

I got this idea from a story posted recently for a diy mount for evo.
Yeah it isn't cheap, but it works pretty good. I already had all the parts, I just got extras just in case and I wanted to use my gps.
You have an evo. Get the hard case with the white back they sell at sprint store. Get a replacement garmin brand (not generic) suction cup windshield mount for the nuvi 205w from best buy. Put the hard shell case on the phone. Put the phone into the mount in landscape mode with the volume buttons on the top. Put the bottom in first then the top, just like you would put the gps into the mount. The bottom of the mount clamp is the wider clamp. Once that's done, make sure the case is in the clamps as far as it will go in on the bottom and top clamps.
The phone should stay in the mount pretty good by itself. You could glue the case to the mount for extra holding power. Just take the phone out of the case when glue is being applied. Also cut off the white stuff off the case where you plan to glue. Finally, make sure you don't obstruct the camera lens view with the suction cup or mount.
Sorry no pics or videos yet...

Thunderbolt car mode

Is there a way to get our EVO car mode screen to look like the thunderbolt?? My buddy has one and the evo car mode screen looks like garbage compared to his. Thanks guys.

that's probably a sense 2.0 feature in which case yes you could make your phone look like that by flashing one if the Desire Z ports, like Warm Z for example. you will lose 4g thkugh, which for me is a good thing. the 4g radio turns on by itself all the time and is a battery hog. Give it a try if the car panel is more important then 4g to you.

Screen Flicker Issue

Anyone else got this? Basically, when the phone screen isn't moving, such as when I'm reading some text, the screen flickers. For example, whenever I'm reading a post on xda, the white background around the text starts to flicker, and it is really noticeable in the dark while just reading posts in my rom thread, and its very distracting. (Happens when keyboard is open and closed)
Anyone else have this? Anyone know what part I should buy to replace it?

i had this a few months ago and now the phone is on low all the time cant turn up, the brightness it still flickers a bit brighter every now and then.
if you have the same as me it isnt the screen i was thinking its was the ribbon cable and couldnt find a cheap replacement based on a hunch,
now i seen more people getting this i would guess its the driver board for the screen,
not looked in to this though and dont want to folk out money on a phone i am looking to replace as soon as the driod 4 gets GSM.

Get rid of the G2

Hi Guys, I have a G2 I purchased from t-mobile last spring, it is a great phone and we have a lot of joy, I am very satisfied with the phone, except the battery time.
HOWEVER, the phone's screen did not light up since last week, and I believed it is the ribbon cable, because everything else just works fine, so I can still pick up phone call (weired without any display)
My phone is out of warranty (1 year) and I will not bother spend more money to look for a new ribbon cable.
If anyone want this "dead body", with original box, earbuds, three batteries includes one extended ugly thick one. The phone screen is covered with the invisible protector since the day I got it.
Just throw me an email, [email protected]. Maybe we can work out something.
BTW: for who is interested, I got a new G2x.
If i were u id post in the classified section, ud have more luck imo.

They work, but poorly. It is like typing in the rain. Sometimes it doesn't recognize your touch. And your finger tips need to be pressed flush against the gloves to make the connection.
Better off getting something like those fingerless glove mitten hybrids

I have seen this before.
I saw them at 7-11 for $9.99 in their cell phone isle.
Give us a mini review.
Thanks in advanced.

you can also get them at five below for $3 and they have more colors.
anyone know how big these are? the ones at Five Below are made for 5year old girls hands. TINY !! I actually got them on but the fingers are not long enough to be really comfortable but they did work.
Can you post some pictures of the gloves, And also if the fingertips.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I have a bunch coming in from the mail. will post pics when I get them
the five below ones were your typical "knit" gloves with the ash colors finger tips. seems to work fine on the screen
Okay got mine in today, not bad they are the knit gloves that you would buy just about anywhere, local pharmacy, Walmart, etc... They do run small I have small hands and they are snug. I would say small-Med. If you have large hands I would not recommendel. Now I have not tried them in cold weather as it is still 50-60 degree here in the northeast. I can use them to navigate on my phone and use swype style keyboard with no issues. For 3 bucks with shipping I feel as if I got my money's worth. I will go to 5below and see if they are the same. Will also post pictures tomorrow
