Ok, so I am using the original sleeve that came with the phone, which protect it well enough to my mind.
Some stuff were pissing me off though, like having to take the phone out of it to check for new notifications, or the fact that the sound (notifications/ringtones) was attenuated a lot by it. So much in fact that even at max volume, I missed a couple of calls.
So I did cut a round area where the trackball is located, which allows me to see if I have new notifications without getting the phone out of it.
I also cut it where the speaker output is located. Now I can finally hear my phone ringing, in its sleeve, in my pocket.
Did cut it with normal scissors and burned the edges (to avoid the holes to grow) with a lighter.
It is a dumb trick, but improved a lot my overall experience, so I just wanted to share it here
I ll try to post pics later on, as I am at work right now and cannot do it.
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the trackball hole in the sleeve...haha I can picture it.
I'm sure Apple has already patented that and now it's only a matter of time before they sue you
Yes! Definitely put up some pics of your ghetto-fabulous new sleeve!

Hmm, you have a point, I might not have to worry about any smashing this year. Last year I did a Firefox pumpkin and that made it as well. In other words, geek 1 jocks 0.

I don't know if i'm late but I just saw this... http://www.androidcentral.com/googl...it-one-patched-aosp-you-probably-didnt-get-it
These are some really popular apps that i'm sure some of you might use and they have been found to be malicious.
Thanks Bud
This is getting out of hand... google needs to get this **** under control ASAP. Every other day now apps are getting pulled from the market.

As long as your on 2.2.1 or higher this won't affect you...
I was dealing with an app issue and app store support point out that my phone was rooted and they do not support that. I do not know if I should be concern that they snooped my phone or not but it does seem like a pretty big privacy issue.
It may be no big deal but I was quite surprised. What is your take on this?
Think Google made android for humanitarian purposes?
Foo they reading you texts and emails and listening in on yo calls!
What the hell? My phone! Stay out! Its my personal info stored not googles!

Pfft, they feeding you ads from that info too, why you think they all advertising Evo 3d and porn??
yeah I get that. I am not that naive or paranoid.
Bet they just saw superuser app in your market list or saw software version. Dunno really
Was the app a rooted only app?
from my phone duh

Hahaha. That'd be funny. Call up google to see why you're having a problem with the app you stole off 4shared! Lol.
Yea I bet they saw your app list and noticed a root only app you may have on your phone, busted.

knowing your phone is rooted, for support purposes, is not the same as having access to your personal data. at all.
can't expect to have your car fixed without opening the hood, ya know?
and this is the risk we take when rooting, not getting "official" support.
Full e-mail log or it didn't happen.
No offense to OP, but I don't think anyone should take his word until there's proof.
No biggy, the app is RootExplorer. Its just associated with the wrong email account. I figured this out myself and they said that there currently is no way of changing the associated account with a particular purchase...so if you buy it with the wrong account you are out of luck.
He did say they are 'seriously' looking at add the ability to move an app to another account.
I would love to be able to gift an app, i would buy RUA for everybody

Since the app is Root Explorer, wouldn't that explain how they know your phone is rooted?.. ahahah

It could be as simple as the fact that you have downloaded multiple root only apps. It's kind of a giveaway.
I'm surprised that you're surprised by the fact that Google knows your business. If you take a look at the permissions for the apps that come installed on the Evo stock, you'll find that they all have every permission out there... or almost.
Big brother's always watching. I used to care, now I've just learned to live with it. I know it's strange, but I don't really care if someone sells my browser history for marketing purposes. Meh.
EDIT: I either skipped over the last 50% of posts, or I'm just really slow. I did eat a sandwich while typing...
