[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EfemaN:
If I remember correctly, when I got my G2 back in November (or sometime thereabouts), the screen was flush with the edge. Since then, I've used a Realook screen protector that I took off last night, and maybe it's because the screen protector was on it that I didn't notice, but there seems to be a very noticeable, sharp lip around the long edges; I felt it when I flicked across the screen. If I hold the phone horizontally against a bright backdrop and look across the screen, it seems as if the lip is just a bit thicker closer to the middle.

Maybe I'm being paranoid, but the lip is noticeable enough during use that it's bugging me. Could the screen have recessed a bit into the body?

Ran off into second page. Bump!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilcuber:
the metal unibody around the screen is higher than the glass to prevent your finger from sliding completely off the screen. the screen is suposed to be recessed a tiny bit in. and there are parts behind the screen that prevent the screen from caving in. there is no room for your screen to cave in.

My bookmarks are not showing image thumbnails anymore. The last 4 bookmarks I added have a default icon. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.

Title basically says it. While running qudrant standard I'm getting horribly low numbers for the 2D and 3D graphics tests, but I still seem to be able to pull upwards of 2300. Can someone help me fix my graphics problem?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] InfiniteRisen:
What is horribly low for you? Like less than 60 fps or what?	Also, what kernel are you using?

Swyped from my LG-P509 using XDA App.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DeBiasoMan:
Im using fraco's kernel v18, and I'm getting 8-9 for the 2d test, and about 4-20 on the stairs test, and then about 45 on the planet test, and then 6-7 on the DNA test.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetnsour:
are you using the latest version of your rom?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DeBiasoMan:
Yes i actually just updated prior to this, about 2 hours before i ran quadrant. my phone seems to be working just fine, and I'm getting great numbers for everything else. I just wanted to beat my friends quadrant score of 3000 with this phone.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DeBiasoMan:
Sorry for double post, but I reflashed CM7, and I was wondering which CM7 i should flash and which franco kernel to maximize performance.

HELP!Have a HTCC Sensation and have a couple of flip covers.Last one l bought a faux leather one the mobile could not be removed from the cover no matter how hard l tried.As a result had to tear it aprt.it has now left a residue on the back cover of the HTC Sensation.How and what can l use to remove these not exactly sticky but mpossible to remove using figernails.Cannot use my charing dock as it doess not show it is charging but can charge it the ordinary way.

Must remove as cannot open to replace battery or other things.

Anyone give advice and remember the back is polished plastic so my thought possibly is nail polish remover but had no idea how this will react with the plastic.Water no use,also cannot afford any water damage.

Any idea please as am desperate.

Please note if you are going to suggest a product it may not be avail in Australia so please if you answer outline how and what l can use as phonw very expensive (for me) and although under warranty l hardly think this comes under that heading.l bought this flip cover in good faith and thought it was safe so someone had better be respnsible for this.My other one has a sort of felt or soft interior which l have had no issues with.

Good lesson to those people when buying flip covers for cell (mobile phones)

Thanks to any one who hs th knowledge or time to answer.signed DESPERATE

I get some texts but I'm finding more and more that people respond to my texts and I never get them. I dont have Advanced Task Killer but I do use autokiller. Is it that? Could it be some other program or maybe my ROM? This is driving me crazy.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aus_Azn:
I have the same problem with mine. I've checked my friends' text logs to confirm that they're not being mean and lying their way out of not texting me, and my phone has the most sporadic SMS reception and sending. I'll receive doubles of some texts, and fail to receive others at all. Friends only appear to receive 1/3 of texts I've been sending, and this is under both Apex and S7.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slombar:
I am running Apex also and I even deleted Handcent, didnt fix problem.
[Android Themes] graffixnyc:
So I'm trying to edit Rosie for sense 3.0 to make the App drawer semi-transparant. I found the xml files I need to change. all_apps_view.xml in the layout folder and color.xml in the values and values-hdpi folders.

I'm using apkmanager 5.0

I set the current project to rosie.apk

then I decompiled using option 10 with dependencies

when it asked me for the dependencies I dragged framework-res and com.htc.resources to script window and decompiled. That all went well. I swapped out the XML files and then went to compile.

I got this error:

building apk

"An error occurred, Please Check the Log (Option 21)

Press any key to continue

it then asks me if it's a system apk. I select Y

It then asks me "aside from the signatures would you like to copy over and additional files you didn't modify". I select Y

It then tells me to check the keep folder and delete any files I have modified and also delete resources.arsc(since I modified xml)

But when I look at the keep folder none of the value folders are there. The last folder I see is layout-port-hdpi

So I just go into layout and delete the one xml file I edited(since the others arent there)

and press any key to continue. It tells me everything is ok and I have the apk. But when I push it over and reboot the htc.launcher keeps FCing on me and doesnt work.

Here is a copy of the apkmanager log file:

http://pastebin.com/fAANsARX

Anyone have any ideas?
[Android Themes] graffixnyc:
Figured it out... It was something with apkmanager 5.0, I used 4.9 and it worked fine :)
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
So check this out..

I had my phone charging in my truck. I then went into 7-11 cuz kids were bugging me for a slurpee on this hot as F day. Was in store maybe 10mins.

When I got back into my truck I went to use my phone and it had frozen up so I did a battery pull to boot it back up. After reboot my screen is cut off 1/2" on right side (shown below and taken with my wifes crappy IPhone 4). Now the weird part is..I took a screen shot to post to see if anyone had this problem and after looking at the screen shot the screen shot looks normal.. WTF!!

Anyone have this problem?

Anyways!!

I took it to the sprint store and my replacement will be in Tues.
[HTC EVO 3D] VirusZer0:
The screen shot looked normal because the actual homescreen on ur phone is there, however part of your LCD is burnt out.

At least you get a replacement!
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
Heck Yea!!

And without having to pay $100 deductable
[HTC EVO 3D] hdnet1:
That's actually a known issue the latest version of software was supposed to fix. I think. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Since you have half a phone, they should only charge half price to use it.
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
So if I update theres a chance it will fix or is it to late? I know with update I'll lose root but I am getting a replacement anyways,

OMG!

I wonder what hboot will come with the new refurb phone?

I hope its not 1.50
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
Make sure they don't update it latest hboot isn't rootable
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
That would be nice
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
O for sure!!

I told them not to update my OG when I had to have replaced and they were cool about it.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
Good good I know some people either forget or don't pay attention to them setting it up and bamn latest update lol
[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
You can root just fine using HTC's unlock method. You just can't flash kernels or recoveries with modified kernels.
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
sort of off topic. but im here in the DFW with ya man and its terrbile.

[HTC EVO 3D] cruise350:
You title sounds like your blaming Sprint when they stepped up and replaced your phone after your negligence damaged the ****!! Next time take your phone with you. It's F'ing hot out there!
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
I love how your calling your wifes iPhone 4 crappy when your using her working phone to take a picture of your broken phone. Ironic huh lol
[HTC EVO 3D] EricSS619:
then what's the point?
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
In no way was I or am I blaming Sprint for my screen. I have been a loyal sprint customer probably longer than MOST on here.(Since 1996) I know its not their fault for the faulty screen.

Also!

Even though I didn't mention this is my post, My truck was running with a/c on and of coarse was locked and the title was just something to get peoples attention.
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
It is crappy.

Did you see that awesome picture quality the iPhone took?

My phone is still 100% functional and still outperforms hers hands down even with 1/2" of my screen blank.

I'm just a HTC Android guy and to me Apple can EAD..
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilbuddy419:
I have had about 5 android phones and I got the play(usa). When I got it there wasnt any root for it yet. As u know there is now. My issue is this, with every phone ive had I have never seen so many people willing to help someone root there phone. Untill i got This one. I dont need root but im one of them people who wants to cause I can. I have never bricked any phone ive used. I have altered every smartphone ive used. From winmo to the dare to android The point of these forums is to help one another. Not become rude and say screw you figure it out yourself. You all must remember not all of us are familiar with every aspect of every phone. Im not sure if most of u r so rude because u have no life but carma is a *****. To the dev helping and r willing to share what they know thank you you are and what should be what these forums are built for. Tho some are not able to pay for your time. I will be the one to say thank you without your effort we would not have what we have today. Again thank you. And to the rest take a look at the ass u have become.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwk94:
You used the [Q] tag even though there was no question...and it's Karma, just saying. I agree though that some members on here are incredibly rude when they could be useful, but still, this thread didn't need the "Question" tag.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
[Rant from a person who, in the measure of his possibilities, has contributed to all the developments going on here]

1) Learn to spell your own language, and some lessons on punctuation meanwhile. It is insulting to people who have English as a second or third language (a good share of the users, if not the majority) and have to spend years in cubicles learning English well enough to be understood when English-speaking natives don't even try to make themselves understandable.

2) It's exhausting to read loads of poorly written (and therefore hard to understand) questions about the same topic. It's more exhausting when they're all actually the same question, but the person who asks didn't actually care to search properly for his answer. Of course, he hasn't found an answer because he doesn't want to spend any effort in reading, summarising and extracting the proper lessons, and because in case that he reads and "does his homework", there's a good chance that what he finds is... a poorly written (and therefore hard to understand) question, which deters him from reading further.

3) I have a life. A life that is well spent when I can be helpful to others. When others don't want me to be helpful, and that shows when they don't bother to communicate their needs properly, my life is a bit unhappier. I want to help, so let me. Writing "im one of them people who wants to cause "I can" implies that you're hostile towards my help, or anyone else's. And when this kind of people are hostile, and it's clear that they're hostile towards you because they don't make the basic effort to communicate with you, there's a thin line between giving a grudging answer and sending them to hell.

4) Basic idea: you don't want to be helped, so help yourself. You don't want to read the threads that are already open and telling you all you want to know, so don't ask us to answer to your own thread. You're hostile towards others by not trying to communicate with them, and by expelling what is basically noise: expect hostility and more noise to come back to you. As you very well say, karma is a *****.

[/Rant from a person who, in the measure of his possibilities, has contributed to all the developments going on here]
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alejandrissimo:
i did not see the question :S
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dousan:
1. How do you know they don't even try to make themself understandable, you might choose a more suitable word, you 'assume' they don't. Some are better at things than others don't demean people for their spelling nor grammer. I will agree that one should retain from using txt/sms language in posts.

2. Yes this forum is already getting cluttered up with the same questions. If it annoyes you don't click on the thread. If you do then choose to help either way it's written. Point the OP to the other(s) thread(s) or even answer without hostility. You choose how to react.

3. They might be hostile and then you choose to react and choose to return it. If you want to help, then help either way and do it without remarks. What does it matter. If it makes you happier when helping then do it, choose to do it no matter the language, grammr and spelling, hell even the tone. Karma works both ways, what you give is what you recieve. So if I get it right one needs to meet your standrd of spelling and grammer to be helped, that just bs. Help is a gift to others and you don't give anybody anything to expect to get anything back then it's not a gift but a trade. Everybody has a life what has that got to do with it unless you imply that they wasting your time by posting unreadable posts, you choose to read.

4. I agree with you on this, if people won't spend the time on helping themself others won't help them. If they have a hostile tone they'll get that back. That's how karma works. You on the other hand always have a choise on how to react. It's always your choise, so what you give is up to you and not depending on what others might or might not post in a thread.

I understand your point of view on this matter and I'm not saying that meeting people with open arms is easy and not getting annoyed when the same person put up 2-3 threads with the same problem/issue. I react aswell and get annoyed and for a few secs I feel the urge to post a negative response, but I don't. I mean we're all human and have the same reaction. The thing is how you respond to them, how you meet the world on a daily basis :)

Regards Dousan...

Hope I make myself understandable :p

e: Karma is not a ***** it reflects what you do and how you act in life :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilbuddy419:
The question (that was answered) is why are some people developing and using sony play so rude. I undetstand getting frustrated because of there ignorance. However, wouldnt it be just as easy to answer there question? More time and effort is spent being an ass that is needed. Nowhere in my article did I say I needed help. No I do not have a rooted phone. not because I cannot but because I myself am waiting for a Oneclick root. I use my phone as my internet. For a 150 mb program it takes about 4 hours to download. Ill wait.

For logseman, im glad it took you forever to read my post. Its less time you can spend being a **** to someone else. For not being able or " hard to understand" you sure was able to to reply with ease. If it means we english - speaking natives have to deal with people like yourself, ill pass. People like you are why the world is the way it is today. Try helping a little more. Next time you get the desire to be an ass while replying, try being helpful, even if the question has been answered. Yes they could be being lazy and not willing to help themselves. But rude reply is Just as lazy and unproductive.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilbuddy419:
Look I get that. I understand people are sick of the same questions. But directing them where it is or simply saying use search. Is better then some of the stuff I have read. Some ones reply was if you need step by step instructions im not helping you. Your a newbee and shouldn't be rooting. I dont know how to use every program available for android rooting but I can fallow directions. This is how I have rooted all of my smartphones.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
If you don't understand why writing poorly and not bothering to state your problem clearly is a hostile act towards the people who potentially want to help you, I don't have anything more to say about this topic.

If I've been helpful to people in this forum, that's for them to decide. Ask Blagus, Mills, Ashergray, Yifanlu... Perhaps I wasn't of great assistance to them, but they will probably say that I've done what was in my reach to help. And perhaps 117 thanks in my counter, without me ever having developed anything, might mean that perhaps sometimes I may be making myself helpful.

I do not wish to argue further. By all means, rape your language, transform your posts into hieroglyphic loads of nonsense which people have to decipher with a Rosetta Stone, only to discover that it's the same question asked 3 threads below. As you can guess, I couldn't care less. But don't try to subvert what's right (asking for help) and what's wrong (being lazy and impolite).
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reapman:
It took me about 2 minutes on this forum to figure out how to root my phone - was a very easy process compared to my previous Acer. As someone who is new to the Play scene this forum is about the same as any other, some helpful, some rude.. I don't see what the issue is... :confused:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mozza2k11:
Just because people are so called "newbs" they post on here thinking they will get the answer quicker than searching themselves. Which is untrue. Sometimes people get flamed, sometimes they get no answer at all and in the time they are waiting for an answer they could have found it with a google search or xda search.

If people dont know how to use xda's search then google it. Googling "rooting xperia play" then clicking on the "More results from xdaforums.com »" shows all the thread related to rooting posted on the xda xperia play fourms.

I fully understand what you are saying and i personally dont see the point in flaming newbs since at one point we all started there. The Xperia Play was my first android phone so i started off knowing nothing and the reason i never got flamed was because if i needed help i would always google it first then use xda search just incase.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deoxlar:
People are only rude to those who ask a question that has been answered before...

You come to the forums unwilling to read anything... Instead you post a thread asking for help that already has a guide out 5 threads down....

Did you expect warm welcomes for being lazy?

Yet you are trying to justify that being lazy is the correct way and everyone else should spend time and effort to search an existing thread and link it to your lazy ass...I got two words for you. **** off =D

So..... when did this become an english language forum?

I don't understand why you get so angry that you have to use our superior language.

There was no point of sending the Spanish Armada (which sunk btw) to simply point someone in the right direction.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
I'm not angry that I have to use English. I write much more English than Spanish these days. What makes me unhappy is that I have to decipher poor writing, and it's adding insult to injury when the one who writes poorly is a native speaker. That applies to the three languages I happen to know: Spanish, English and German. Writing your own language poorly is a conscious choice when you're all literate (as you write in forums which requires you to know how to read) and perfectly capable of using proper English (as is the case here, since it's a USAn guy and an English sidekick, and you're from NZ), and choosing to write poorly and making yourself hard to understand is disrespectful towards the people who read you.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alucard_maac:
I agree with this, since people are not writting an SMS there is no reason to write poorly, I actually stop reading the thread at the 3rd line but i saw Logseman reply and got interested:)

I'm also a "Newbie", my Xperia Play was my first android and I rooted my Play at the first try. You just have to do a quick search and follow instructions step by step. There is always an answer for almost every problem you can have, and if there is a new problem the first ones that will notice are advanced users that will post an answer.
