    Post charging/usb port problem - can't un-root

    I sent my galaxy to Samsung 2 weeks ago, it is due to arrive back today. They paid postage each way and the invoice says they replaced a component (no detail) and updated software and prl. I was already on the current release so not sure what to expect. But it is good to know they are taking...

    Post charging/usb port problem - can't un-root

    this exact problem has been an issue for me as well, contacted Samsung and told them i bought it second hand and they issued a rma and sent me a ups label t send it in. This is my first phone that broke before I even had a chance to root it. I was pissed at Htc so decided to try something new...

    Post Sense vs. AOSP

    I like AOSP cause thats what I learned on. Sense pisses me off more than it helps- too many things that just dont work right for me. For example (and this is small stuff, but stuff that just bugs me), click on the address bar on the browser. Start typing something to search....click enter, aww...

    Post Cracked tbolt screen...... Warranty??

    if the screen shows signs of impact damage, then no- but assuming it really did happen just by tapping the screen and there is is no impact damage, I would fight like hell with them. My old Tmo Dash has a screen cracking issue once and I was able to show them there were no signs of impact, it...

    Post [Q] front facing camera?

    well, you can take pics of yourself to upload onto facebook if your into that kind of thing. Sure beats the little chrome dot that your supposed to use as a mirror LOL I am sure at some point there will be Skype and other programs that will and can use it. Just a matter of time

    Post [ROM] CM7.1.1 for Thunderbolt

    Holy cow...I am doing good to get 8 on bamf. I put the phone on the car charger while I am using the GPS throughout the day, and it is off charge all the rest of the time. I can tell very little difference in battery life between the two in my usage...in fact right now I am actually up from the...

    Post Having Withdrawals Already!!!

    I had a G1 back in the day that had some odd problem and I was rooted, Tmo looked at it and wouldn't touch it. So, I called HTC. I told them that I purchased the phone off Craigslist so Tmo couldn't help me, and asked how the warranty works on their end. They said that since the production of...

    Post [Q] replacement screen?

    I have used thin double side tape on a few, but usually I like the black rubberized superglue from the hobby store (called tire glue for RC cars). Use very sparingly. It is shock resistant and not brittle like regular superglue. Keep in mind, I have done a lot of digitizers in the past, but not...

    Post I'm slightly disappointed in the Thunderbolt

    I too am highly disappointed in aspects of the Thunderbolt, but 95% of of my disappointment will be fixed when Cyanogenmod is ready for daily use. That was the only reason I kept it past the 2 weeks- I would have turned it back in if I knew I would be stuck with Sense. I remember feeling the...

    Post [Q] replacement screen?

    If you are good with small parts and very patient, it is not going to be a terrible job, but I wouldnt recommend it if you havent done a digitizer before. They are very fragile, and the front bezel will require careful removal of old adhesive. Here is a video, ignore the final part which is just...

    Post [ROM] CM7.1.1 for Thunderbolt

    I know you guys want screen shots, but it looks just like all the other CM's, there isnt much to see. You could look at screens of pretty much any CM7 and know what it looks like. It is sweet! But no different. I loaded it up and ran it for a bit, if GPS was working I would be COMPLETELY...
