Yeah. The diztronic is probably the best tpu type case you can get. I just don't like tpu very much. My phone came with the casemate barely there. Fits like crap but making due till the ringke cases are back in stock.

Took the plunge and flashed android revolution hd. Nothing really different other than getting 4.0.2. Now rooted, bootloader unlocked, and cwm installed. So easy with that tool on xda.

*edit*
Actually I ordered this screen protector instead from XO Skins

Reviews say it feels smoother than most wet apply skins and it doesn't have the orange peel effect like the others. Sgp flex review shows visible orange peel.

!MiKrofT 12-25-2011 12:51 AM

Could it be HD widgets?

hongy 12-25-2011 12:55 AM

I was going to guess beautiful widget+a skin. What is HD widget? Heard but never actually seen it.

CP.AR 12-25-2011 08:16 AM

Uhh.. the Camera shortcut is already built into the stock lockscreen...Don't think you can remap the stock camera keys. Maybe with a third party camera app.

That's cause he changed it to pattern unlock instead of slide unlock.

Did you try Wireless Etc in Costco? If you have a Costco membership that is.

!MiKrofT 12-28-2011 01:29 PM

Hmm this is probably a one time thing but 30hours uptime on a charge :)

CP.AR 12-29-2011 05:51 PM

^ they wont.

Mobile DNA in bell will though

*Disclaimer: i'm in no way affiliated with the guys there, it's just that i know FOR SURE they sell them straight out

!MiKrofT 12-29-2011 06:55 PM

Weird. Mysef and a few others were able to buy phones outright from Costco.

!MiKrofT 12-29-2011 06:58 PM

Seriously... Apple is trying to patent face unlock.

Apple applies for iOS face and presence detection patent

So how is everyone liking the galaxy nexus compared to other phones ie. Iphone 4s, galaxy s2, bb?

So wait, android releases feature, apple likes it and decides to patent something THEY didnt come up with..
Werent they the ones sueing HTC for patent infringement?

Gt-R R34 12-30-2011 09:48 AM

I don't think apple could patent that facelock.

I'm going out on a limb and say that a security firm MUST of had a patent for that for YEARS and YEARS!.

Retinal scanners, facial recoginition, palm prints. So forth, my money's on someone has something like that already.

They probably worded it or changed the specifics enough so that it's different enough to patent.

I've had connectivity issues all day today. Twice now, I have looked at my phone and I don't have cellular service. Both were in areas where service is expected and usually solid. When I look @ my phone, the bars were just empty and it wouldn't let me make phone calls or text.

Anyone else have issues with this?

On Fido.
