Just recieved and installed the invisibleSHIELD. ZAGG just recieved this email from me:

Totally unacceptable: Last time I’m buying from ZAGG

My purchase for a invisibleSHIELD from you has been horrible since the beginning. First time around, the order button was broken on your webpage and I have to contact you to fix it. I ordered my invisibleSHIELD on 5/5/2011 and it shipped the next day. I sent you guys a email about my order and I’m STILL waiting for a reply. It arrived 5/18/2011; I’ve been shipped things quicker from the United States and Asia but fine. I receive the package (from Germany, why???) and first thing is that the box is semi crushed and not what I would expect from a company. Next thing, the solution bottle you guys send is unscrewed and naturally the solution spilled. I was stuck without a solution and I had to make do (because I’m not reordering paying a dime for you and waiting another 13 days) with soap and water. Next I find that some of the parts are actually already unstuck to the paper so I had to even put MORE effort in installing. I installed the shield today (again after the experience not worth it even if it protects from everything as there are companies that do the same thing).

Basically, no customer care, horrible package protection, and a product that simply is not worth it. Thankfully, I got a discount you were offering and paid half because this product is worth just that and even less.

I’m not recommending this to anyone; I prefer they try other products such as Best Skins Only which actually gives a decent price for the products.
[General Accessories] Lonski:
Ive used there stuff on a couple of different phones, probly would not try them again. I just dont like the rubbery grippy feel on the screen protection, and it can be a pain to fit as well.
[General Accessories] whytecountry:
I'm not a fan. The one I had was unnecessarily thick, and made the screen quality terrible. They advertise that it can hold up to a chainsaw blade, haha or something ridiculous like that, completely unnecessary strength makes for bad quality everywhere else.
[General Accessories] maxidimov:
Dunno. I bought the maximum coverage for my phone and it arrived two weeks or so later. My phone was gone for repairs at that time, so I had to wait for it to get back. After I got I immediately installed the invisibleShield and had no problems since. The package was in perfect condition and also was everything in it. You only have to clean the edges of the protector every week or so, so it doesn't accumulate dirt. :) I was so satisfied with the result that I ordered the Smartbuds and the Sparq 2.0
[General Accessories] woshiweili:
I've always used invisibleshield on my iPhone and have been loving it. I also got it for my EVO 4G. I definitely recommend it. I also recommend not be cheap and spend the extra $5 for them to install it for you. It's worth the trouble.
[General Accessories] hipsh0t:
Ive tried multiple invisishield screen protectors for all of my droids and iphones and I have never had a problem. Come to think of it the only problem I ever really had was once the shield didnt have the holes cut out for the speaker or home button its as just a sheet so I just returned it for a new one and moved on.
[General Accessories] funkus:
used invisible sheild full body and screen covers on a few devices now and i really like it.

Some dont like the feel of it, ive had friends comment on that, but i like the better grip you get from it, and they have saved my screens from bumps and scratches multiple times.

theyre definetly a pain in the ass to put on, but its worth the effort for the top quality protection.
[General Accessories] camoko:
I used zagg when i first got my Lg Voyager a few years back. Didn't like it to much. The 'clear' discolored after a few weeks, corner wouldn't stick, etc.

Then I found Phantom Skinz. installed nicely, felt great and stayed clear as long as i has the phone. I pulled it off after over a year on the phone, still in almost perfect condition. The best part, the phone itself didn't have a single scratch on it and looked like brand new after over a year of abuse. I used Phantom Skinz on every device including camera, gps, my sons nintendo ds and everyone s phone in my family ever since. just ordered my Skinz for my Tb. $18.00 for 2 full body sets. I'm giving the second one to my daughter. So my opinion, @#$& Zagg, do yourself a favour and get Phantom Skinz. Google phantom Skinz coupon for 25% off. I think i used the code "summer25" .
[General Accessories] justFaisal:
i like my Inspire without it!
[General Accessories] Scintillation:
I typically think that screen protectors are a waste of money.

But that's just me.
[General Accessories] justFaisal:
Exactly...
[General Accessories] tribestros:
InvisibleShield is without a doubt the best one on the market. They're a ***** to install, but you pretty much never have to replace them, if they're installed properly. And since I work at Best Buy and get them for $5, it's worth it. Although, the liquid used for the screen got into my trackball on my Aria and jacked it up, but I have no such problem on my Inspire, other than my case kind of pushing it up.
[General Accessories] XikkeN:
I've had mine on for about a year, and it's been great. I have recently picked up some lint around the edge of the protector (specifically near the front camera) It bothers me just enough that I will likely replace it soon.
[General Accessories] Koizuma:
I have had one of those on my phone since I have had it and love it I got mine from best buy for about $20 best protector I have ever had in my opinion.
[General Accessories] zac12995:
i had one on my palm pre and it was a joke it cracked when i dropped it in gravel and peeled off easily
[General Accessories] windehawk:
I think they're definitely worth it as long as you take the time and care to apply it correctly, otherwise it will create bubbles that will make you want to pull your hair out.
[General Accessories] gdelrosario:
bought the full body zagg invisibleSHIELD for my old phone a few years back, I'll never buy again because of the following reasons below.

1. on curved corners it peels off too easily, ended up removing all of it except for the screen protector.

2. the sides of the shield when applied is a dirt magnet.

3. for some reason my shield turned brownish after a few months, killing the brightness of my screen.

however it does have it's pros.

1. protects the screen from scratches (used to have my phone with my keys in my pocket and not a single scratch).

2. it has a more "grip" non slip feel to it which is good.

3. says it's got a lifetime warranty, didn't bother with it though.

4. buying it in a mall with their small kiosk, they would apply it for you (less hassle and bubble problems lol)
[General Accessories] WBMc36:
In my experience with the invisible shield, i would say it is not worth the money. It is a pain to install with the fluid, mine felt too tacky, did not slide as easily as i would have liked, and after awhile it started to come off. I would not pay the 20$ or whatever it is, when there are other competitors products out there that are cheaper, easier to install and last longer.
[General Accessories] WA_Bob:
I only have the screensaver now since I have a case, but I've used them in the past and my wife's phone has one. It does indeed take patience to put on and a day to get used to the feel, but they work great for scratch protection! :o
[General Accessories] dioxda2:
on HD2 ............

that is a no go for HD2, disaster after 1 month...... peeling off and become sticky .... ha-ha, may be my bad..... +_+.....
[General Accessories] trollsperm:
I ordered a HTC Desire Z and a matching invisibleSHIELD 3-4 months ago. I put the shield on before I at all touched the screen with my fingers. At first I wasn't really satisfied with my work, as there were a few micro air bubbles under it. But after a few days, these bubbles had magically escaped, and now it is really invisible.

I'm not really sure how much I really need it, as I handle my device with extremely care.. But I guess I'll get a new one if this shield should start to be damaged, or I buy a new device some time..

I'm attempting to download a copy of nero V5, as it is being suggested in a number of the topics I'm looking at. I however am unable to find in on team whiskey's page. There are a number of other roms available there, would one of those make a suitable replacement?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perilousx:
Hello again!

I just installed the MIUI ROM RC3 and it looks good.

But now my IMEI is different, so it says emergency calls only.

And my back button does not respond. On anything. And my network is not available and it laggs. And the status icons from WiFi and 3G and network also changes from green to white now and then. Anyone also with this issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perilousx:
EDIT:

When I wait a minute or 10 then its connected to my mobile network and the other issues are gone. Only the green status icons are still there. And my IMEI is still different then under my battery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
as for the green and white colours with 3g and wifi, it starts off white, when there is a connection it turns to green, thats nothing to worry about.

when you flashed the miui rom, did you do an efs backup ???

if so just restore it, that will fix the imei issue and connection issues.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perilousx:
Yes I did a efs backup. But how do I restore it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
i think you need to do it manually through root explorer, then do a reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perilousx:
Ok I installed root explorer, but how to restore the backup?
[HD2 General] rickyjune:

My upgrade is due in a month, Im probably gonna go for the DHD......

Not sure how long I'll hold on to it. Will probably sell it on to put towards a newer large screen dual core android device when one turns up.

Hell, I might even just sell it straight away and buy a new laptop. I have my HD2 after all, why do I need another phone :D

You still get to keep your HD2 for 6.5/CHT goodness remember :D

the windows can access every sector on the phone, so the cards have to be good. This sometimes freezes the phone. I think this is the source of the occasional google maps freezes and lags and that causes problems for some games that runs from the card. Does anyone experienced anything similar?
[Defy General] vick33:
I have stole the 4 gig card out of my gf-s phone it is a class 4 kingston, and with that card everything is perfect. The other cards are A-Data cards, the good card is Kingston. I will try to changethe card back to kingston in the shop.
[Defy General] vick33:
With my girlfriends card, the io errors are gone and the black screen freezing too, but a couple softwares still horribly slow and unresponsive, like Dungeon Defenders and Sygic Aura and sometimes even google maps. I donwgraded to 2.51 and everything is nice and smooth. I used the sygic aura for a 300km travel, under 3.4.2 the software becomes unresponsive after a couple minutes. The google maps worked for longer under froyo, but it still became unresponsive after a couple hours. Similar goes for games too, so after a month of froyo i am back again using eclair...

Anyone experienced the same things with froyo or just my phone hates froyo:-) Or the recent foyo realeases are still beta?
[Defy General] yuwei:
I am having the same thing with you again with my new 8G Kingston card. And the card just seems fine by chkdsk on windows. I suppose there are lots of problems with this kernel.
[Defy General] HinotoriBR:
Unfortunately I'm having exactly the same issues in my Milestone with a Transcend Class 10 card.

It seems that the problem is with the OMAP MMC default drivers, as this discussion in maemo.org shows:

http://maemo.org/community/maemo-users/n900_microsd_card_i-o_errors_and_corruption/

That means, if your card doesn't work good on the phone but works perfect on your PC, it is most likely incompatible with default OMAP MMC drivers, unless someone changes it (I'm not even sure if that is possible with our locked bootloaders, if those drivers are part of the kernel, I guess there is no way to do that), it won't ever properly work.

P.s.: I've tested the transcend card in a USB adapter, everything goes just fine, no errors with hw2test, so, it is really a case were bugorolla and TI supplied drivers are causing incompatibilities.
[HTC Desire S] neg3v:
Hey all,

I got my Desire S yesterday and having just come from an iPhone 4, I'm reasonably impressed. The user experience of the iPhone is obviously light years ahead but I like that android allows much more customisation without having to jailbreak the phone.

What is bugging me though is the slow clunkyness of HTC Sense, so I'd like to root this phone and install something else. I know there is currently no software method of achieving this, but I'm wondering if the XTC clip would work.

This is what mine says at the bootloader screen:

SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-0.98.0000

RADIO-38.03.02.11_M

eMMC-boot

Mar 10 2011,14:58:38

Does anyone know if the clip would work? If so I'd happily get one.

Thanks,

negev
[HTC Desire S] neg3v:
Oh I should probably also mention, I've tried the psneuter exploit but it doesn't work on this phone, probably because it's 2.3.3 so even temp root currently isn't possible. I heard someone has an exploit called Gingerbreak but afaik its not public yet.
[HTC Desire S] neg3v:
Found this: h.ttp://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2010/Dec/85

Local privilege escalation exploit for <= 2.6.37

As the Desire S has 2.6.35, theoretically this should work. I'm going to try to figure out how to compile a binary and test on my phone, will report back.
[HTC Desire S] madmaxx82:
Hi,

you should really post questions about the desire-s in the desire-s forum ;)

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1033

There haven't been any XTC Clip updates for either the incredible s and the desire-s yet. You should watch the official forum for that at phone-tools.cn
[HTC Desire S] neg3v:
Oops my bad, can I move the thread somehow or do I need an admin to do that?
[HTC Desire S] madmaxx82:
Sounds very interesting ;)

Are you able to modify that exploit?

* I wouldn't be able to reach the NULL pointer dereference and trigger the
* OOPS if users weren't able to assign Econet addresses to arbitrary
* interfaces due to a missing capabilities check.
*
* In the interest of public safety, this exploit was specifically designed to
* be limited:
*
* * The particular symbols I resolve are not exported on Slackware or Debian
* * Red Hat does not support Econet by default
...
* However, the important issue, CVE-2010-4258, affects everyone, and it would
* be trivial to find an unpatched DoS under KERNEL_DS
[HTC Desire S] neg3v:
i'm not even sure how to compile it, arm-eabi-gcc won't install from macports and ubuntu doesn't have it. i read somewhere that the Gingerbreak exploit might use this, but the author is sitting on it for now for (i think) good reason. He said he's waiting for a specific device to land, maybe its the desire s but it could be the evo 3d, who knows.

I'm just glad that the desire s will eventually be rooted, as I can almost certainly S-OFF with the clip and if there's a temp root exploit then the rest is just a hookup exercise.
[HTC Desire S] madmaxx82:
Yes, but just hope they release the update for the XTC clip before 6 months have passed ;)
[HTC Desire S] timbo007up:
Even though you posted in the wrong forum, i love the input from here, since this WILL infect our IS too when gingerbread comes for the IS. So i know that i will not upgrade my phone until that exploit is out OR we managed to get root before the gingerbread update comes.

This means that we cannot downgrade to a froyo rom until that exploit is there. (needs temp-root)

[HTC Desire S] loveboatcaptain:
dont think that the desire s (with s-off) ist rootable with the superoneclick tool.

the exploit which is used in it, didn´t work with android 2.3.3. that is confirmed by a lot of users in the nexus one, nexus s and galaxy s forums.

everyone (especially those with only 1-4 posts) who might get root on his s-off desire s and the superoneklick tool should post a photo (not a screenshot) showing the superuser app asking for permissions.

i think those guys are trolling around.

so proove it, that your whre able to root the desire s with s-off

Hi,

I own a GT540 on Android 2.1.

I was wondering if it's possible use the FM radio without headset? It appears, on Windows Mobile, you can tweak the registry to allow this. Is there's a software level solution to make FM Radio work without headset on Android?

Yes, I'm aware that headset acts as an antenna and you need it to get a good reception. But, at times, it would be convenient to use the FM Radio without headset even if the signal is weak.

It's also possible to insert a fake plug to make it appear that a headset is present but am looking for a software solution.

[General Questions and Answers] mikereidis:
The app would have to support this, although hypothetically the system software could be modified to fool the app. Or if you could somehow crash or otherwise disable the code that detects headphone jack insertion events that could work.

I HAVE found this annoying with the HTC app. I've developed an FM app that doesn't have this restriction. See my sig for details.

On my HTC Legend I can receive some strong stations OK with no antenna. My HTC Desire HD does much better with no antenna.
[General Questions and Answers] jackokring:
FM radio and sampling.

This kind of post makes me wonder if sampling the mic input in some non periodic (not at an exact frequency) rate, and if the sample and hold before the ADC works fast enough, that the FM band maybe decoded by the correlation of multiple sample rates. For those without an FM radio. Exact timing of the sampling would be critical, so not sure if it could work on some devices. But anyhow, probly too much low pass on the mic input.
