I love my HD2.... BUT

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!

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.

Yea, sorry for the **** camera quality :/

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.

Thanks for posting it here and thanks for the videos

so no one noticed that the Gorilla Glass has come away from the chassis? don't believe me? look at the top right hand edge of the device, the glass has gone translucent, and if you quickly pause, you'll notice a line running down both left, and right edges of the glass, at first i thought it was the chrome bezel... it's not... explains speeding the video up, hides these mistakes. TBH still a good case, but throwing it off the roof of a building is a tad extreme.

Polish your specs
That is a bubble in the screen protector and the edges of the screen protector, not damage to the glass.

I have hay fever eyes so you maybe right, however why does it get worst throughout the video ???

I agree. but if their leather case is so protective. Imagine what their hard cases can do! Not that they have any at the moment though.

[MOD] Easily Remove Samsung from Google Nexus S

Today I removed my zagg full invinsible shield because it didn't fit ok so I got new one and I decided to perform a thought I had for long time....remove samsung logo!so I did it with pencil rubber and thats the result...what do you think??I love it

Samsung did good job on this one, and deserves the recognition...
That's my opinion.

OMG I'm doing that asap! So you just used a pencil eraser, did it leave and marks/scratches?

Lmao that's awesome!

I'm definitely doing it...I had this idea of removing the logo for weeks but haven't put it in practice.
turned out a simple way to do that ^_^

i personally would just remove everything altogether. not to discredit the 2 companies for the fine work theyve done, but all black no logos just looks sexy. besides, you've credited the companies already by buying their products.

I covered with sellotape the area around samsung logo then i rubbed it with a rubber with a red part and blue part, mainly with the blue part(harder) and then cleaning it with cotton.I had no scrathches but the part of the plastic with the logo was looking a little blurry at first from some angle, clean again with cotton and rubbing alcohol and it will reduce it.Today with the invinsible shield looks nice and shiny!

I do some modelling and would normally use a sand paper after I stick 2 plastic parts together (400, 800, 1000, 2000, 3000) and will finish it with a polishing compound.
for budget or practicality I use this
just make sure you use number 4 to make it shining.

I have a black soft case on my phone. Looks great and I don't have to rub any logos off. /shrug

nice mod

Thanks , very nice. I will test
