QUOTE(Moogle Stiltzkin @ Aug 4 2012, 11:02 PM) How to change your general phone call ringtone to a custom own of your own choosing err. why dont you just install handcent, you dont need to use the handcent as primary device, but now when you go to system > sound > choose notification sound, select handcent and it will allow you to choose mp3 as ringtone or notification toneFor the second half of the guide, is how to set a custom notification sound. Refer to this youtube guide that explains better than me Wish there was an app that made doing this easier X_X: Anyway this is what i'm using Phone ringtone: J-E-N-O-V-A, FF7 Notification: Fanfare, FF7 |

I'm getting the same feeling with my phone. Kinda getting annoyed with the sticky feeling of my SGP Flex rather than the orange peel.

The screen isn't as smooth as the original screen I can live with it, but knowing that the Curved Crystal SP is not gonna arrive so soon is killing me Using the flexHD is okay for me, at least the orange peel doesnt affect the clarity |

Only complaint from me is that the screen isn't smooth as the original screen. Also it seems to collect fingerprints quite easily I just hate the fact that I could have been using the Curved Crystal SP now and say bye-bye to the orange peel effect of the flexHD.. if only SGP didn't delay the item last minute Where did you place your order for the Curved Crystal? Online? How much and when is the expected delivery date? |

How much and when is the expected delivery date? I bought it on 8th of July, but they delayed the item about 2 weeks ago. As a sorry-for-the-inconvenience,-here's-something-for-you gift, they're giving pre-order customers a free stylus worth USD13 approx arrival date is end of august though.
