[Q] New Mytouch 4g hardware mod? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the black mytouch 4g. The matte finish is chipping off near the area you stick your finger nail to open the battery door.
It looks like if I started picking at it, the whole phone would be a glossy black phone....Like the white mytouch 4g, except black
I'm not sure though. I would try, but I'm replacing my phone because theres dust under my screen.
Just letting people know, this could possibly be a new hardware mod?

Yup. Been posted before. Just like on the white ones, the batt door can be stripped and mirror polished.

Are we on the same page here? I'm talking about the matte finish haha. I'm a bit confused.
I know the battery door can be stripped down for a nicer look.
But I'm talking about the black matte finish be stripped down

Exactly. The soft rubbery stuff on the battery door and back part of the phone. Like I said, its the same mod as the white mytouch 4g. Only that instead of being black is silver and not rubberized for the white mt4g like the red and I think also for the black one. I know its not a batt door but what I'm trying to say is that is the same concept and it has been talked about and done.
Its a nice lil mod. Do it.

dunno. My wife has a G2 and i use the on screen keyboard way more then i use the Physical Keyboard. i guess it depends on the person.
G2 keyboard is not so great. But in pictures the slide keyboard looks much better but I still think the g1 keyboard will trump it.

I too used to only go for qwerty keyboards, but since having this mt4g i have came to appreciate smart keyboard pro. It's very accurate and well space on screen keyboard. I don't think theres too many other keyboards that could better the g1's 5 row. Bigger screens and there touch keyboards are the way to go.

I would... But the size of the phone looks like it's doubled and I'd much rather carry a phone just like it without all the extra weight... Which is why I want a Sensation.

same here, waiting for the quads to come out. the MT4G is already a beast and could hold me off another 2 years IF needed lol
Like everyone else, I'm waitin till quad cores, don't know what they'll come up with that requires that kind of power but still...
Exactly. The MT4G is not a G1, it handles everything flawlessly. Don't know why everyone wants to upgrade right away as each new phone comes out. If you have the cash to drop then by all means upgrade, nothing lags on the MT4G and I don't see anything really challenging the phone for another year and a half. So I'll be good.
im stuck in the fence between the MT4G Slide and the HTC Sensation, thing about the Slide is the fact that the HTC Sense 3.0 is like cut off from features found in the Sensation..moreover you only get 5 home-screens; but then i need a keyboard to text much faster... -__-
and the HTC Touch Pro 2 has the best physical keyboard...jus saying

If you need a keyboard then go with the Slide. I'm sure you can expand the home screen on the Slide to 7 just like the stock MT4G ROM. Once S is OFF on the slide then I'm sure you can install the stock Sense 3.0 on it once it has been ported.
Plus you get the bomb ass camera on the Slide.

Great minds think alike. Ours do as well.
I got two for free (not till release) so I suppose I'm gonna see what its all about. Right now I have a mt4g and love it so I may just sell it for a nice little profit. Wifey wants it though so I'll still have one around.

This is really good girl use, pink and purple.

Would people be interested in a phone specific website? UPDATE Layout and design 75%

OK ladies and gentlemen. I have been busy working on a site for the Mytouch4g to centralize and make it a tad bit easier to get to what you want for our phone. At the moment it is still not ready for full release but I have a little test up so people can get an Idea as to what to look forward to.
This in no way makes the final product as there will be changes along the way but it does show the general direction I was thinking on taking for it. Let me know your thoughts and opinion and I am a freelance designer so I can take the critic punches.

Sweet stuff! Tell me when it's up or post a link or something! I'm excited TBH lol good luck guys
Gonna get some work going on it this weekend. Main focuses of the site will be first and foremost overall design. Then once a design is set in stone this is a small lost I will tackle.
-ease of use
-information about our phones
-a listing / directory of all roms and kernels
-links back to major site (XDA)
-still debating on a small forum section.
Those are the basics at the moment.

Ladies and gentlemen of the 4g community....I have updated to reveal a sorta teaser of the upcoming website for the mytouch4g. Check out the OP for a link or click here
www.levelonestudios.net/phonesite/index.html
Looks promising!
Could you have specific sections?
GB
ICS
And within each section sub sections for Sense and AOSP? Man, that would rock.
Yeah that's what I will be adding. For not I will get it running with the most major roms mostly being ICS but then slowly adding in others.
Man, this is something that was extremely necessary but no one was actually motivated enough to do so. I mean, I personally know a lot of people who have mytouches and they dont know where to get the proper info about what they want to do with it... i totally have your back man. Try to get more pics in the thing, and you could possibly link the popular ROM's for the mytouches to the website
Very good idea, since I am laid off and short on money, I will be hanging on to my MyTouch 4g a while longer...

It looks like not HTC at all.. lol..
I have been see the sense look from version 2 to version 4, it look same, only the animation is different.. now if the latest sense look like that, it look like another common android phone.. no exclusive about HTC on it..
That's just my opinion by the way..

There was a lot more different from 2.1 to 4.0 than the animation (5 icon dock for one). Sense 5.0 doesn't look like anything else so that is kinda the definition of exclusive lol. But you're entitled to your opinion. It makes me drool lol.
I saw this on the unlocked.com today. Feb 19! http://theunlockr.com/2013/01/29/ht...-next-big-thing-ahead-of-mwc-on-february-19th
I might get the m7 when it comes out. I like the way sense 5 is looking

And if you get it and don't like the way it looks you can always change that.

Alleged HTC One successor leaked

http://www.engadget.com/2013/11/07/htc-one-m8-fingerprint-reader/
If it's true, looks like the plastic on the sides might be gone - I'd be really happy with that, that's the one thing about the current One that I don't really like.
Also, what do you reckon that hole at the top could be for (on the back)? The article thinks it might be a finger print reader. I really hope it's not, it also says the leakster says it's a second camera...why would you need a second camera on the back?

Same phone? Spec bump?
They completely changed the design of the phone's sides and probably length/width
They have included some unkown extra device on the back, probably a 3d camera or finderprint reader.
Looks like a blue color will be included at launch
Probably more unknown goodies
And yes, of course a spec bump.

It's just that the design looks similar to the HTC One but I don't doubt HTC cause they make handsome looking phones. And let's hope that the goodies is as good as when they launch the One.
