Black color G2 - G2 and Desire Z General

so i found out there is a black color G2.... seriously why wouldnt tmo launch this sexy ass color? lol
http://www.intomobile.com/2010/08/0...ked-t-mobiles-first-hspa-phone-is-crazy-fast/
same thing happened with the G1 they launched the black one but not the white one at first wow. thats stupid in my opinion, give us the color option first! lol now i want the black G2, if they launch it ill try convincing the reps at customer service to send me the black one lmao i still doubt they'll change the color maybe if i pay something they will.

Its not black, it's just the lighting.

its not the titanium color either but whatever it is it looks sexy, have you notice the keys? they are different colors too and the quick keys are also different they look the same as the dezire z but this cant be the desire z because it has three quick keys and desire has only 2

and who knows maybe this one wont have the loose hinge lol, i dont personally care about the hinge, but it would be nice if this one comes with tight hinges.

another black color g2 http://latestpriceindia.blogspot.com/2010/08/htc-desire-z-price-in-india-htc-desire.html

lmfaooo, man as soon as this comes out, ill ask for it and if they refuse ill threaten tmo to cancel my line ill do whatever it takes to get this color

It is indeed darker in those pics. Those are the prototype images you are seeing. As far as I know there are no other colors available on the market.

Hopefully they'll let you leave if youre being serious

That's an old article and early pics that were going around.
Phone: T-Mobile G2/Vision Rooted

I'm hoping that some company will release a full replacement case for the G2...in black. I wouldn't mind taking it apart to get that blacked out look!

If you think those two phones are black:
a) you need new glasses
b) you need to adjust the colors on your screen
c) you have a vivid imagination
No, but seriously: Verizon's HTC Merge, based on the G2/DZ, might be more of your cup of tea.

I had the black G1 and I got a little tried of seeing it everyday for 2 years. So this titanium color is a welcome change for me. Thats why I bought a clear case instead of a black case. Now my wifes HD7 looks good in black. Overall the color isnt the most important. Im just glad the phone doesnt have the physical "Call" "Home" buttons. I was hoping HTC would have done away with the physical buttons and they did.

you guys DO know those pictures were early testing units right?
obviously when the time came closer to release, HTC decided to go with the color we have not, IMO it looks better than black.

HTC vanguard and it was the original z hinge.. pretty sure T-Mobile will never release it. Check eBay

No you didn't lol I hate verizon!!!, oh and it may not be fully black in fact the only black part is the aluminum but it is a blackish grey so I call it black!

I'm sure with over 8 billion people on earth that a black G2 exists somewhere, maybe India. One thing to consider, from what I've read in the tabloids, (or movies), people over there are either very wealthy and powerful or they are still living like; well; indians! I think it would be selfish of us to think that we have the one and only G2 (color, that is).
Then, again, there may only be one color!

White Nexus S

New white Nexus S pics leaked. what do you think? i copied this over from AndroidCommunity.com http://bit.ly/hS1z34
It appears that the BestBoyZ are at it again. Over in Germany there's been a leak of a supposed white-backed Samsung Nexus S. This Google phone has been the firecracker of the past few weeks as far as speed and overall fun factor go here in the states, now it's in white? Man, it's like they're in there own little world, these Google phones.

Is white the new white? Case color offerings seem to be all the rage these past few weeks, with several phones leaking the idea that their battery covers, back cases, and entire cases would be offered in more than just black. This Nexus S appears to have only a white back with a black front, giving it a rather unique look for such an already-wild device.

The power button and the volume rocker (Im assuming) is white as well. I will be grabbing one as well as soon as it becomes available.
Don't like it. Love the sleek all black look of the current NS.
I think it would be cool to put a black back on this, so you have a black NS with white buttons. Panda Edition.
lmao
panda edition lol would make millionsjust off of that lol with a save the pandas on the box lol...
but i love white phones and wished the whole thing was white , i think they left the front black so that way when u have the dark wallpapers you cant see the differnce in screen and phone witch i love... if it was all white i would be down to trade no problemo... long live the nexus one still best all around i think...

SGS2 - Black or White?

This may seem a bit odd but I'd still like to hear your opinions please...
I've had a black sgs2 for a couple of months, rooted and custom ROM etc.
My other half has just received a white sgs2 upgrade but she rather keep he old Nokia and has given me the opportunity to keep it and sell my black one...
Which one do i keep (without considering white one may sell for more etc)?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
why does she want to keep an old nokia and throw away the best phone ever build?
I think the white one sells for alot more because its newer and not rooted/custom roms.
But its all personal preference, if you like the white one more, then keep the black one
Wouldn't have thought it would be worth more cause of the colour. If it does make more I would definitely trade that few pound for the classy white look. I've got the white one and bought some skins for it. My favourite being white sgs2 with a black vented cover. Looks really smart with the white showing thru the black vent wholes. Just my opinion and preference, but hope this helps mate!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
prefer the black one, white phone gets messy in time
i think i prefer the look of the black one, but ultimately the white one would sell for a little more! (blame apple)
i prefer the black one too..........the back of the white phone is flat and slippery.......
Black definitely.
I was really really disappointed in Samsungs galaxy S II white version. The colour and feel with the silver aluminium on the phone looks tacky and cheap. They did an awesone job with the Galaxy S white version. That one was actually called i9000 ceramic white.....whereas the sgsII really doesn't look like a 500pound phone ....

I personally bought a white one as I always wanted a white phone
I'll suggest you to keep which ever color you like.

I bought the HTC One in silver since it was the only colour stocked by O2. But i do really prefer my phones in black so tried making a sticker for the front and back. Here's my attempt, its not perfect but what do you guys think?

I don't think so. You can see some air bubbles under the sticker and the seams from the white dividers on the top and bottom
Sell This
Can you describe how you did this and or sell a kit? This would make me feel better about pre-ordering a silver One.
Surely OP will deliver!
Im a part time graphics designer and have access to a vinyl plotter and endless types of vinyl. So i got to work by creating a template of the front/back for the plotter, loaded the matt black vinyl and let the plotter do the rest.
The hard part was measuring every aspect of the fone, as you can see for the front camera n sensors I got the measurements slightly wrong.
In the future i would love to try carbon fiber vinyl on this.

i willingly could buy your silver device if you dont like it even its not announced yet offcialy in my country. just checkin' picks
I don't care about black or silver.
The main thing is, the surface is not shiny.
That's why I always liked the phones from HTC (my One is on the way )
would you be willing to start making more of these and selling them?!
I think a matte sky blue...a la Volvo's blue in their performance line...but matte or satin would look amazing on the One.

I wonder if it's that coated paint like on the black that can chip or like the silver.
seen this in person, it looks A LOT better IRL than it does in photos... might be coming to Canada
anodized i'm sure... I wonder if we could get our aluminum anodized and make our own colors.... Of course it would have to be taken apart but hey, it could probably be done. I know a guy who anodizes, hmmm.
Red with a red bumpers would be hot!
That would have been nice to have. I wish HTC had offered the Developer Edition in special colors instead of the same silver and black. That would have been nice way to differentiate.

How about we start a thread for ideas for HTC instead of complaining about the M9.

Thats a good idea... I would like to have seen the speakers take the form of the speakers on the nexus 9 so that the bezels was smaller... Also get rid of the black bar and make a bigger ONE as an option... Otherwise this phone would be perfect...

This phone would have eradicated the S6, this phone looks stunning. Can't say the same about the final design as that black bar is annoying.
Also a RGB notification light would be nice.
I hope to see a vocal assistant like siri or svoice
Better utilization of the camera, the HTC m8 has a great camera, so does the m9 I'm sure. But it doesn't even compare when it comes to my old Nokia Lumia 920. Possibly partner up with Camera makers like Nokia did.

But the renders were not from HTC, they were all fan-based. Why get your hopes up for something that had no official links?
This is my issue with people's reaction to the M9. Although I'm disappointed with the design I'm also not surprised. HTC need to recoup some money and saving money on design means they can continue to move forward. It's good business sense. Design is already great, so address the issues with the M8 and bump the internal spec
I kinda like the front facing speakers of the one. I've never used an htc but it still looks nice for a change as all the prev phones iv used had a speaker on the back. Anyway, I think what htc needs is a notification led something like the OGP. That would be sexy.

To be honest, I'm not even mad at HTC for black HTC bar either. It's not a big deal really.
Seriously guys, if you want BOOMSOUND, and I'm sure you do, you need to be okay with some sacrifices. Those things take some serious space on top and bottom.
And it doesn't even look that bad in my opinion. If they move it that's okay. If they leave it, that's okay. Same with the uncentered top speaker grill. It doesn't bother me. That being said, i wouldn't upgrade to the m9 from the m8, unless my m8 was broken. Which it is. I think the m9 is mainly targeted for m7 or onex/evo4glte users that never upgraded to the One series because if the 4up idea (which wasn't even as bad as it was made out to be). Which means... They should have had the camera software ready. If they do fix it, then great. but they are already losing customers because of the stuff going around about the"disappointing camera" gahh.
I'd say the best design change would be make the next either thinner, or don't have the camera protruding. That's about it. The phone is beautiful. They should make the HTC logo on the back stand out more. The two tone colors are nice, they should make the HTC lettering on the rear of the phone golden, too.
