Bluetooth headphones - Droid Incredible General

Does anyone know of any earbuds without a cord at all. I want to very discretely listen to music at work.

Jaybird makes a decent set. I can't remember what model they are, but I use mine to listen to Pandora while running. Works like a charm

here you go take a look at these, i been looking for a pair like this for a while. I have been using the Altec back beat 903 and love them except for the connnection cord between the two earpeices, i have thick hair and the cord is a bit on the stiff side so it tends to pull them out of my ears. but these may be just what we both are looking for...

Sorry, but those exist only on Ennova Direct's drawing board. No one has yet to license their patent for manufacture.

that is really a shame, they look like they would be totaly awesom, i really love the ones i got but if i could get rid of the cord between the ear sets it would be the best. they stay on my ears perfectly until the, rather stiff, cord that connects them hits my shirt coller or jacket coller, then it pushes them up and off my ears.
actually been thinking of doing a little modding on them, see if i can replace that cord with a slightly longer and a much thinner connection cord. It is my belief that the stiff part is just a type of conduit or sheath that could be removed.

Battery cover clicks, cracks, pisses me off

Hi guys,
I'm having this problem and I would like to know if it's happening to someone else. There are certain parts of the battery cover that will click and crack when pressed. They're basically the phone's "temples" (the top part of the phone's sides) and the area around the headphone jack, as shown on this pic:

It's pretty irritating, since that's basically the area I use to grab the phone and get it out of its case. Do you get it too?
I don't have this problem. But I expect people will get the same problem if they open the battery cover too many times. You can try calling HTC to see if you can buy a battery cover from them.
mine does it. Didn't at first, now it does. No big deal.
Thanks for your replies guys, glad to know that at least one more person has this problem too
Rvinny, have you ever dropped your phone? I have, and fear both things might be related.
I've dropped it like four times now and mine doesn't creak. I am probably the pickiest person in the world too, but I have to say... the build quality on this phone is pretty solid... its just too bad they used the worst speakers ive ever heard in a mobile phone before. Bet the speakers on the desire will be good though ... bastards...
mine clicks in the same spots.
i've been thinking about getting a replacement battery cover.
easy fix - put a miniscule amount of electrical tape right under each of the corner tabs on the battery cover to use as a padding/buffer. result - solid feeling phone, no more flex.

Evo with woodgrain battery cover

So, I was bored tonight, and I had some 3M Di-Noc vinyl laying around. Here's what I did:

It's totally removable (doesn't leave residue behind), but I think it came out pretty well. The cutouts for the speaker and flash aren't nearly as noticeable in real life.
That's pretty good.

it looks really good, personally I would have changed the light and speaker holes and not cut out the HTC
Freaking Awesome! I would defiantly get that case for my phone.... love it dude. Give info if u ever plan on actually selling or wanting sum1 to try it out... let me know!
Sent from White Evo to Xda forums
wow this looks amazing! you should sell these, or at least do a tutorial! I'd love to do this to my Evo.
I like the look, but not as much as the carbon fiber. Also, if you have some left over, I think it'd look a lot better without the blocky holes cut out.
Perhaps follow my diy, if you'd like.

I don't like the poked out speaker hole look, but with I should've done the LEDs like you did yours (and like I did my original one).
This is the first one I did (white carbon fiber) a while back:
http://androidforums.com/accessories-evo-4g/92653-evo-white-carbon-fiber-back-pics.html
On ^ that one, I didn't bother doing the speaker holes because I didn't like the look of the white, and I took it off right after taking those pics.
I also have a lighter woodgrain one that I'm going to try to see what it looks like. The samples I'm using were all free, and I should be getting some more in the mail soon.

Evo 4G Car Dock Mod [Dash Cam]

I do roadside assistance and frequently find myself in situations that would be good to have on camera just in case.
There are many reasons you may want to record whats going on in front of you.
Please use responsibly & and at your own risk.

*HEY DEV'S - What sort of potential does this have for Apps? I mean this could be amazing for stuff like Layar and other Augmented Reality Apps, plus so much more*

All that is really needed for this mod is
A power drill (yea scary)
A Drill Bit (started with 9/64 to punch through then 5/32 to make it larger until the camera couldnt see it.
A Steady Hand
A Good Eye (or Measure..but I didn't)
An HTC Evo Car Dock. (Mine is the Official HTC Car Dock for Evo 4G)
It's pretty straight forward.
Drill a hole so that the camera can see thru the plastic arm that connects to the top of the Device Securing it in place.
*NOTE* THE CAMERA IS NOT CENTERED WITH THE PEICE YOU DRILL THROUGH** LOOK BEFORE YOU DRILL. IT NEEDS TO BE FAIRLY PRECISE
Be Careful not to apply to much pressure...it could snap the piece off...not sure...
Snap in your Evo and Go Film!
I have seen a few similar things out there but none that were exactly like this....

i need to make one of those it be perfect for when i go racing.
Nice mod op! I have a similar setup in my car, but with Otterbox holsters.
Question, what are you using to record video? Are you saving it to the phone directly? Or having it sent elsewhere (Qik, uStream, etc)
I was just using the Stock Camera App.
Could probably use other apps to stream it elsewhere if you know you will have a strong data connection.

Not sure about that particular cable but can say if it has Ethernet it is a 1.4a rated cable. One of the newest standards out. I used a cheap cable on my wife's Xoom and had non problem. Many places to get cheap cables.
Mono price.com. , merit line.com shoot even amazon and eBay. Maybe there was a different issue there.
I see that it is a crap cable I plugged it in again and it worked but it was a little off like with the picture size like I only see 2 squares of the right top side app draw button
Thanks I didn't know this was the new style I will exchange it tomorrow b4 I leave for Detroit test at my brothers house
Edit- also cable needs to be in one position or no pic its 100% a dud can't wait to play n64 or modern combat 3 on big screen!

NICE WORK
I've created my own case for the ouya I was trying to make it more functional than good looking. It has 2 switches one is a replacement for the power button as I didn't want to mess with positioning the circuit board so I could press the button. The other switch bypasses the fan controller and gives 12v straight from the psu to both the motherboard fan and the extra fan I added in. The fan power from the board is still hooked up but, Its protected by a diode to prevent voltage feedback into places it shouldn't be. The way it's hooked up it also turns on the second fan if the switch is not on. The second board beneath the second fan is a cheap powered usb hub so I can hook up a mouse, keyboard, and a usb stick.

I would love the BDG case, but with shipping it more than doubles the cost, I wish I didn't have principles :/
Haven't found any good alternatives though.
