[Q] Metal skin?

I noticed the Metal Sense skin was for some reason omitted from the DInc2. Does anyone have a Metal.apk that works?

nope but if found can u attach the apk.
prolly one of the cleanest SenseZ skins ive seen.

Hopefully someone with an IS can be kind to extract and post the Metal.apk from /system/app

I have one if you guys want it
You guys get rooted and I will build you a rooted stock rom

I can only hope. I've used your ROM's, top notch. My Incredible's USB port just quit working today. Took it to VZW, and of course. Out of warranty. So I have to buy something else at full price. Lucky for me, my friend got an Incredible 2, brand new condition with a 32GB SD card. Said he'd sell it to me for $400. So I may be joining you guys over here soon .

Thank you so much!
Hopefully we can get a permanent root for Inc2 soon. I replaced my first Incredible with an Inc2, and I love this phone. Now all we need is root and some good roms

I'll probably still be here, until I can afford a replacement. Figures that the USB port would stop working (besides charging) just a week after the one year warranty expired. Which means I'm stuck being stock. I ran the RUU and S-ON to take it to Verizon for a replacement. Forgetting it was just out of warranty. And now I can't root, can't run Unrevoked. Sure, I can temp root with Z4root. But where's the fun in that? No ROM's etc. This sucks .
But, once I have the funds. I think I'll just jump here to the INC 2. The thunderbolt is HUGE, and there's no 4G here anyway. At least until the end of the year or 2012. By then I'll actually have an upgrade anyway. Hopefully we'll see a permanent root, either here or for the Incredible S.

So htc just bought a Dinc 2 and I'm itching to root it, I know there's a temp root for it, but since its been such as long ass time since I've rooted my Dinc OG, I forgot what to do. So I have three annoying questions, one: how do I temp root it and/or where can I find this info, two: is there an eta for a perm root and if so, anybody working on ROMS, and three, help lol

Yeah, its the same cord I was using. I've used different cords, different computers. Took it into VZW with their confirmed working ones. Didn't matter. Even hboot doesn't recognize it. Usually it would say "HBOOT USB PLUG". So, something hardware related. At least it charges. I'm considering just keeping it as is. Unfortunately I can't root now either. Permanently that is. So it'll just stay stock. At least we know we can expect Gingerbread for it OTA.

Way to brick Desire?

Yes, I know the title might seem weird, however I've had my Desire to repair 2 times now, and if it breaks one more time, I can get my money back, and eventually buy a Samsung Galaxy S2, so I somehow need to brick the phone, without it being traceable by the shop... Is that possible?

OMG OMG OMG HAHA, ok flash pb99img.zip and pull batt out when its flashing the radio,
But lemme tell you this: YOURE SUCH A NOOB

Why do you think I'm a noob? For choosing the SGS2? I always likes to try new stuff...

Haha. Well, get some mud. Make sure its sunny out. A mold would help. And um, just tell it all your wants.

LOL nah Well, I know I might be stupid bricking my Desire, however I've had so many problems with it now, and I just wants to try something new, I've had my Desire since release in Denmark, I've had the AMOLED version, and if it comes back with a S-LCD from the rep, I'm gonna be so pissed

Just sell it and get the money and put some money of your own and you can buy a sgs2..
I dont think the shop would just get you trade the desire for a SGS2... their not stupid and you probably have to pay sum to trade your desire for sgs2

HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade
Hi, I dont know where to ask this! I put this upgrade to my htc desire form htc developer site, and now my sd card does not work at all! I tried few other micro sd cards and nothing! The software can not read the micro sd cards!
What should I do?

Isn't this technically fraud? Id be careful asking these kinds of questions on a forum like this
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Not only technically. I hope HTC notices it and he doesn't get sh1t and is left with a dead desire and no money.
If you want a new phone, buy one and sell your old on ebay or to a friend or something.

It is a fraud, an attempt to exploit holes in customer protection regulations. I thought only people from my country get such ideas. Now I feel sorry for finding out that I was wrong.

Jk but seriously $20 is not in your budget to use your phone? You seriously need to reconsider your necessities then.

[Q] Selling my t989

FIST OF ALL this is NOT an offer to anyone. I am NOT trying to use XDA to sell my phone. I just need some advice on pricing. The whole point of this is to upgrade to a different device.
I am trying to sell my t989 to get an HTC One S from swappa but I see that everyone who is trying to sell this phone isn't getting lucky. So i just want your opinion on the pricing. It's rooted and has only been used for 2 months. It also has the original box and charger and no scratches what so ever. It has lived in a box. I was going to ask for 250 but I don't want to post it officially yet. What do you guys think?

You can get around 200 on craigslist I have sold 3 myself before. Ebay you can get 250 or more sometimes from bidders as long as it's in great shape and with clean esn. Not blacklisted by tmobile.

Thanks for the reply! I will try craigslist. I already posted it on amazon and gave up on swappa since they already have a few that haven't been sold. By the way, did you sell them rooted? Or did you go back to stock?

Both ways, one wanted a custom rom and bootanimation for it so I hooked them up with that. But most just sell stock because the regular user don't root and use custom roms.
