Thanks everyone, moving to Epic touch 4g - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Wanted to take the time and thank everyone in this forum for answering all my questions for the last year while I had my great Evo. I will be picking up my Sprint Epic Touch 4G on Friday. I have learned so much on rooting, troubleshooting and helping my friends come over to Android from the iphone community.
Thanks again and best of luck to everyone and their Evos.

General is valid, but he at least made the effort to give kudos to those that made his stay with the OG better. I too took a look at the new toy, but have to agree...will wait until October/November. Specs and all are very good, just dislike the white (grey) and the web browsing was a bit lacking in the pixel translation (too many dot..dot..dot..with sudden changes in zoom/rebound if you will). Even made it to the register...was very tempting mind you, but will take a bit of "flawless" to get me off my OG since I don't really play a lot of games or watch movies on the "PHONE". I believe those that did make the move will be pleased, but not as much as those that wait a couple months..hmmmm.

Made the plunge
well Friday i decided to change to the Epic 4G Touch, and have to say i couldn't have made a better choice. great phone and the best part is that it's not much bigger than the EVO, don't get me wrong the EVO was and is a great phone.

***[THEME]***[CM6STABLE] // 10/06/2010 SynestrLabs ARMY Theme

Hello everyone!
Well about a month ago a member here asked if anyone was up to making an ARMY theme and I opted to do so since I was getting into themeing. What a long road it has been. Had a few hurdles here and there but with a little assistance here and there, long hours in front of an outdated pc, a few headaches and the wife nipping on my ear, I was able to produce this end result:
SynestrLabs ARMY Theme for CM6 Stable

With this theme I included two originally created analog clocks that will take you to the alarms menu when pressed(I am rather proud of those, they are my very first "app" creation). This is my first attempt at a theme so be gentle, however I do welcome constructive feedback as I would like to get better at this.
Many thanks to those I have spoken to on little issues here and there and if I could thank the fine folks at google I would too, teh GOOGLEZ is awesome! Stevo, lithid, Krylon, MPAndroid, and any that I may have missed, thank you for your assistance here and there, it was greatly appreciated. MOST definately thank you to the CM Crew, without ya'll we would have no opportunity to create such themes. If I have left anyone or anything out I apologize upfront as that is not my intention.
I hope you enjoy this theme as much as I enjoyed making it ^^ Let me know if there is anything you would like to see added or removed, or if you have any speciffic requests, themes, clocks etc., and I will see what I can do!!

UPDATE: Forgot to mention but I am currently working on a way to get more than the default wallpaper in there as well as themes for the other branches of military. So please bear with me on that. Thanks
If you like let me know! DONATIONS gladly accepted
GO ARMY!
haha Pretty cool theme
Any chance this will work on the desire??

I don't see why not. Do a nand then flash it. If it works, awesome, if not at least you can revert. Lots of stuff going on, still working on the other branches. Hope to have them up before I pcs.
Let me know if it works for you.

Thanks Synster. I,ll give it a try this weekend. Any chance of a Brit version.
very nice work ^_^

Android Developers Shirt(s)

First of all, (to mods), there isn't really a section for this... since it's not erally off topic (cause it's related... just can't find a place to put it), if you've got a better place for this, please move it
Since I just started developing for android, and I have an ego the size of my... muscles, I made a shirt on Zazzle for Android developers.
Unfortunately, it's not cheap (typical Zazzle) at $27, but it's pretty neat looking.
That's my store/thing, they make you sell it through that, and it looks terrible because I'm not interested in selling stuff as a profession, that's why I'm an android developer!

I was just looking for some feedback I might make some more, because the 'Android Developer' category of apparel is very small, I found only one other item that's for females, which means its really rare!

The link goes to one that is slightly different than the one posted, mainly because I had to swap out the Android logo because you are not allowed to use the font.
I can't guarantee the quality yet, but I chose the american apparel t-shirt because I've had their value tshirts and they suck. I'll get back in touch when mine arrives.

Skin/ Phone Template Request

Hi there.
Iv been looking for a case for quite a while now and to be honest i dont really want one. So my next choice is a skin for the phone.
Before buying either the Ghost Armor or Skinomi TechSkin.. i was thinking of making one myself.
How you might ask? Well my Dad has all types of vinyl and a vinyl cutter.... He makes signs.
What im looking for is a template of either skin or a template (dimenstions) of the phone itself so i can design one myself.
If it all goes well ill take a few pictures of it and post it up here.
I havent had much time to search for a template/dimenstions since i only thought of it now.. and im going a sleep pretty soon. I would be greatful if anyone could help me out.
Last resort would be to scan the phone with a scanner lol...
Thanks.
I just done some quick free hand work of the back cover and a little bit of the side..

Dont mind the color.. i just picked it at random from lots of different ones haha.
After tonight im free for four days.. so like i said before.. any help on finding some sort of template etc would be very helpful.
Thanks.
edit:
I was event thinking of doing a full 1 piece skin.. which covers the back and sides since i never remove my battery or sim.
Bump... no on?
Im finishing work in a few hours and would love to start straight away
Honestly for $15 you can't beat gelaskins. You can use any image you want. So basically the sky is the limit.
I just don't know if it is worth all the time and energy since gelaskins is so affordable.

reported for close request.

Sup guys getting a 32GB version in a hour or so.

Sup people, id like to introduce myself, I'm a hobbyist 3d artist and graphic designer. "Not so much good at the design part" but for now on im gonna "try" to design wallpapers, lock screens, and Themes optimized for the Nexus 7. I'm not very proficient in coding but I have a friend who both has the nexus 7 and is a semi recognized developer here on XDA. "you probably know him he is the creator of Dandroid" "I actually came up with that name =P"
Here is just a few things I have done "I know not impressive yet" But at least it gives me some credibility to what im saying.

If at all possible since im new here anyone can suggest things that are worth developing for on the nexus 7 id be very grateful.
I know zilch about coding or desinging 3d models but I will say that
a lot of the design work I've seen on here tend to lead toward
embossed, shiny, 3D-like styles. The pictures you posted look pretty decent,
I would like it even more if you had the green in a lighter shade though like
the original androids colour. Anyway this is going a bit off topic but I think it would be interesting to
see how you can merge 3D design skills into things like wallpapers
and lock screens and also into future apps your friend can help you develop.
We have a Themes and Apps subforum for this kind of thing.
Good luck with your wallpapers. And welcome to xda
As you seem to have posted some images already ive moved this thread to themes. If you add more wallpapers to the thread rather than start another it keeps things tidy
Regards
Chris

Thanks and sorry for being such a noob, I always seem to be this way when I enter an unfamiliar "to me" community, ill try to be more aware of things like this.
Anyway Here is some of my other work, I used to be more into Gundam 3d modeling so here is some of my more impressive work that isnt client work. "sorry ahead of time, I haven't enough posts so add links yet".

Ive also made other things like tablet designs and such a while back "This is a pic of when a tablet was unheard of" This is what my vision at the time a tablet should be.

NEWS: HTC phones officially the best at stopping bullets

Hi HTC Owners...I've read this news online and wanted to share it with you guys...

One California man is thanking his lucky stars that he decided to buy an HTC Evo 3D. Yesterday morning the phone stopped a bullet that would otherwise have hit him in the chest.
It’s a scene right out of an old Western flick, except that the pocket-sized Bible has been replaced by a 4.3-inch Android smartphone. A look at the back of the Evo reveals that its most volatile components (the battery) played an important role in stopping the slug.
Obviously the victim will be in the market for a new phone now. If HTC’s marketing department has an ounce of common sense, they’ll leap at the chance to work this into their Iron Man campaign and get a brand new phone into this guy’s hands as quickly as possible.
This isn’t the first time an HTC phone has stopped a bullet, either. You may recall an eerily similar incident that occurred back in 2011, where an Atlanta nightclub valet’s life was saved by an Evo 4G. Yes, that’s another Sprint variant.
Is it possible that the Sprint/HTC collaboration is yielding some breed of superphones? Clearly one other thing Droid does is stand up to small caliber rounds.
Unapologetically plastic? That’s a slogan that works for some. Others might prefer the sound of something a bit more dramatic, and if HTC can’t find a way to capitalize on a second live-saving, bullet-stopping phone then the company deserves to be absorbed by a competitor and fade into oblivion.

That's like the best kind of marketing...
yeah, HTC dould use it efficiently...

haha, yeah...It's true, HTC could replace the mobile and use it for marketing... It is definitely the best build in the android mobile market...
They should really use that for marketing, would catch the attention of people with cracked phones!
New business opportunities for HTC. Manufacturing of body armour.
