[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] pardonmyfreedom:
My View was scratched within 20 minutes of me having it. And I don't mean one tiny little hair scratch. I'm talking like 10 deep scratches. Have no idea how or why it happened.

Sprint wouldn't take it back and told me to deal with it. I had Amex refund my money and I sent it in to HTC to get repaired.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] plebianJay:
I put a writeshield matte screen protector on mine. They're a bit expensive, but made for stylus input. I've been using one on my other slate for the last 7 months with no problems.

I only had my flyer for a couple of days before the protector went on, and I had a few tiny scratches from the pen. The matte surface also makes the pen feel a bit better. It's not spongy or soft, but gives just the right amount of drag to the pen.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lonrac:
no scratches on mine...

I use an screen prottector Matte and works perfect ... No reflects , no dirty fingers , and perfect with the fingers and pen .

Any news on the flyer being Gorilla or not? Most reviews claim it is but Gorilla web site doesn't have the flyer down. Is it called something different in the US, evo 4g or something...? That's on the gorilla list.

Thinking of buying but the screen scratching and not being gorilla protected is a concern for such an expensive device, shouldn't really need to consider a screen protector for normal daily use...?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tom_m:
It's called the EVO View 4G there is another (phone) EVO 4G. I believe that's just the normal EVO. Sprint likes putting 4G on the end of things.

I believe it's the first 4G tablet even...The Xoom on Verizon hasn't received the upgrade yet. Anyway.... The website also says all devices aren't listed. The Sprint rep said the View 4G had Gorilla Glass, but who knows... It's hard to take the word of a sales rep. so I guess we won't really be able to confirm until it's on the Gorilla Glass website or HTC says something.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kcchen:
Why don't you think a device like this shouldn't require a screen protector for everyday use? While its not like a phone which can be mixed up with coins and keys. ANY tablet screen is just asking to be scratched. Especially one with, a METAL pen accessory.

Laptops have large screens, but they close to protect the screen.

Maybe I'm just a fanatic when it comes to protecting my gadgets... I put screen protectors on my garmin gadgets... Protecting the glass on this device was a no brainer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] johnchad14:
add me to the list of magic dent appears in screen without me having done anything to it...didn't even use pen the day it appeared. Ah well. Ironic as I finally decided to get a protector just in case and was waiting on it to arrive by mail. I bet if I hadn't bought one this wouldn't have happened!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kcchen:
Hmm... That's too bad. Can you describe the "magic dent"? Is it a chip or an indentation in the glass? And where is it located (middle, left/right edge)?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] amf:
I applied left-over Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 to my Flyer 3g including the screen and it makes it scratch-resistant and impervious to skin oils and sweat.

Opti-Coat is intended for car finishes as it creates additional and permanent clear coat to car paint. I have also applied it to my other gadgets as it is suitable for plastic, metal, chrome, glass etc. except rubber..

More info here: http://www.autopia.org/forum/car-de...imum-opti-coating-durability-test-review.html
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] johnchad14:
It's almost in exact middle of screen...looks like it could be a small chip out. Size of maybe 1/4 the end of the pen tip to give an idea.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tom_m:
I got some matte screen protectors in the mail today. It was like 3 for $9 or something, $12 or $14 US after shipping all said and done. Got them off Amazon, came with a weird black fish keychain. Sorry I don't have a link.

They are the thick sturdy forgiving kind of screen protectors. I literally placed it incorrectly and completely flat and ironed down. I was able to pry it up since it was misplaced over the lip of the edge of the glass. That lifted the whole thing up. So I don't expect these to last long...But for me that's ok given that they are cheap. Who knows due to the lip on the glass and the thickness, maybe they'll hang on longer than I think.

So getting it on was pretty easy, in fact the second time I re-aligned it, I barely got finger print on the very edge which is hidden well and I did get a spec or two of dust on the screen under it...But it's only visible if you look while the device is off. With light coming through, it's not noticeable.

The pen works just fine on it and writing now feels more natural. It's a little bit slick, but it feels like I'm writing on paper now.

That's the positives. Forgiving screen protector. Good writing feeling. The negative is that because of the finish, you're not looking at a crystal clear screen. That kinda annoys me. I wouldn't want a crystal clear invisible shield though either because I had one on my EVO...It's not going to be good for a pen. Its fine for your fingers.

Oh, another positive is that its easier seen now in sunlight.

That said...Before the screen protector, I did not experience any scratches (not even micro scratches which would only be seen at angles in the light)... I used the pen on it too pretty well. Made a few sketches, where I was swiping the pen around a bit.

Maybe the US devices for Sprint's "View 4G" version do carry different materials....as suggested by someone here. It's a good thought. I mean it has a 4G radio and different case color right? I don't know, maybe there's Gorilla Glass on it. Sprint store told me there was.

If you're concerned though, just get a screen protector. They seem cheap enough. I think it's nicer to have the device w/o a screen protector personally...But for $3 for a cover...Eh, just not gonna worry about it vs. the $400 device.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Tina167:
I have an european Flyer and a week after I bought it I have a few micro scratches and one big. I can also see a letter scratched in from the pen. Should I return it?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cbanbury:
Nice. I may have to buff 'notes' left on the screen out first though. Does this affect responsiveness in anyway?

[aside] - may also treat my bike to some of this!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] amf:
It does not affect screen responsiveness in any way. Screen and aluminum case wipes away clean.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] fourdoorchevelle:
A couple of minor scratches prompted me to order a skinomi carbon fiber kit.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kcchen:
I've got the skinomi kit... The adhesive on the screen protector seemed as though it would haze up the screen. This was purely from observation after removing the backing. Maybe after applying the texture of the adhesive is not visible.

I went with a generic ultra-clear in the end...

Please report back.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dljor:
I got mine last night. should have put a protector on it right away. i see a scratch today... didn't even use it that much... this is gonna haunt me forever....
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gamefreakgcb:
I pretty much left my flyer alone until I received the full body kit. Cost was like $14 or so from bodyguardz.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] forx:
i use these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400218331966?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

go on/fit really easy and last well,pen works fine as does finger,cant be better for that price really i think.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gamefreakgcb:
It will clear up completely in 2-3 days. It'll look like crap first but you have to have patience.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] rjohmit:
I've had my View for a couple weeks now with no screen protector and have no scratches. I've had it in a Blurex case since I took it out of the box. I may get a screen protector for it though.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bsweetness:
I always use a screen protector on all of my devices. To me, it's worth the few extra dollars that they cost just in case something should happen. For my View, I went with this - GreatShield Ultra Smooth Clear Screen Protector Film for HTC Flyer / Sprint EVO View 4G. Easy to apply, and it fits perfectly. I usually don't need more than one, but it's nice to have the extras in case the Scribe starts marking it up after a bit. Haven't had a problem with that yet though.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Sweetpea8472:
Yes me too... Every single LCD surface, beside the TV and monitor is protected by a screenprotector... Even on devices that are not touch screen (such as my GPS). You never know what can happen. A small abrasive particle can come between your cover and your screen...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dburckh:
I have three Gorilla Glass devices. My wife has a Transformer and the thing is tough as nails. We've had it for almost a year now and zero scratches. I do have the dock, but I didn't for a couple of months. I have a Galaxy S 4G and my wife has a Vibrant. Both are the same way.

I've had the View 4G for 3 months and I've got about 6 scratches. I do not have the stylus. The rest of the case is scratch free, it's just the screen.

My best guess is the scratches happen when trying to remove the cover. It requires a lot of force, so it may be best to do it face down on a clean towel.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flaco05:
Yeah, it seems that the screens with active digitizers in them are less scratch resistant than others. Both my Thinkpad Tablet and Flyer are prone to tiny scratches and are also fingerprint magnets compared to my Galaxy Tab, which is really tough to even smudge (my Huawei Ideos is pretty tough too). Also, I use the pen quite a bit, and you always have to make sure to hold it pretty much at a 90 degree angle. If you tilt it too much, there are rough spots close to the tip which will surely scratch your screen. Finally, always make sure that the pen tip is clean. A bit of dust on the tip can also be a scratching agent.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
Yes you should be able to. Just put a sim card from a carrier other than the one the phone is currently registered to, and you should be prompted for the code. If for some reason you can't unlock it in Android, which I doubt, just do a nandroid backup in CWM, flash any stock WM ROM, put in the new sim card, enter the unlock code, the re-flash MAGLDR and CWM, then restore your backup, and you're unlocked and back to your Android ROM.

hey guys,

is it possible to use the Galaxy S II as a touchscreen for my windows machine?

Example: I have my one tft (24") and i want another screen (galaxy s II), where i can put for example Photoshop tools. So I can select the tools via pressing on the galaxy S II' screen.

Hope this isn't the wrong section.

If anyone knows another option, let me know!

Hi, I've been trawling through the XDA archives and found noting that can directly help me so;

What I'm trying to do is move some [not all] apps to my SD card. My phone is GT540 running 2.1.

Ideally I would prefer to move the apps to the card on the device without rooting [I am able to root though] but as far as I know that's not possible, so I found Links2SD on market which has pretty good reviews but requires me to have a second partition on the card.

How would I go about doing this. If anyone has any better way of moving apps please tell, either way thank you in advance.

As a vast newbie to the world of android customizing could anyone point me to a launcher that has a 4 icon dock with one of the been the app draw function and the other 3 at my own discretion.

Try go launcher. You swipe the dock bar and it will let you customize the icons. I think Launcher Pro let you do the same.

About the Samsung keyboards:

I'm talking about "stock" Samsung keyboards which the xda development community was able to extract from other stock ROMs and add to development Froyo ROMs where such input languages, such as Dutch or Hungarian, were not available. If you follow the link provided, you will find instructions that describe how to add the additional input languages to all Froyo ROMs. This is therefore "Android development", which is why this thread is perfectly positioned on xda.

I would say on 3 degrees discrepancy, instead of 10 degrees on the previous one

In every case our g sensors are responding well, it's just a matter of calibration, I hope ASUS will releanse soon a calibration tool. Or maybe someone else.....

Is there a place where we can post some suggestions to ASUS ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seshmaru:
The calibration is done the same way for every android device, wave it in a figure 8 on the x axis, this will calibrate both the compas and the accelerometer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tutti-frutti:
I have contacted Asus, and the issue, including a link to this topic, is being forwarded to the Asus HQ. Currently there is no calibration tool available. I hope Asus can fix the issue soon.

As stated, calibration using the app GPS status don't have any effect on the tf (maybe not honeycomb compatible for altering sensor values?).

They don t even check before answering, we re not blind.....if we say it s not ther, that's because it's not there.

I found the solution : i returned mine back to the store and had one well calibrated now. not perfectly but that's far better.
