[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] janitorjohnson:
This is a super noob question, but the ET4G comes with Gorilla Glass? I googled it and it appears that it already has this installed from stock.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jmelendez1:
As long as you don't drop the phone on concrete you should be ok without a screen protector. Gorilla glass is good stuff but not impossible to scratch or shatter. You could find postings on this all over the web.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ehusidic:
That is correct the Zagg screen protectors are to be installed wet. I have one on my phone and I really like it. I tried scratching it with a key and its good as new. Cant be too sure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Product F(RED):
Don't count on Gorilla Glass. My 3D had GG and it still had little scuffs and scratches. I don't know what you guys are using but I work at Sprint and bought the phone outright yesterday. First thing I did was apply an Invisible Shield (not the wet one) screen protector. You can't see it at all, except the edges near the top of the screen where it ends. Other than that, invisible.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clamknuckle:
Yeah GG isn't indestructible at all. Something scratched the crap out of my screen and I can't figure out what it was. I must have had a few diamonds in my pocket or something.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evolart:
The gorilla glass tests i've watched on YouTube show people rubbing the screen on pavement, hitting the screen with a screwdriver, rubbing car keys on the screen, poking the screen with a knife??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clamknuckle:
Yeah evolart, and I did the same thing with mine. That's why I don't know what scratched my screen, because everything in my pocket shouldn't have been able to scratch it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffvb9:
Good deal!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Eric1985:
I like the Sprint ones except the smudges on the protector. The phone drove me nuts so I bought a pack on launch day. Each time I touch the screen a smear like redish blueish just a big smear. Obviously you notice it the most when the screen is white and I always have to wipe my protector off with my shirt or whatever I have laying around. I think I explained that good, but are all screen protectors like this well for the Epic Touch anyways or just the Sprint ones?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] s14tam:
My two cents. Do not depend on gorilla glass if you don't want scratches on your display! I have been babying my e4gt since I got it (never in my pocket with keys/change, etc) and already has scuffs on the glass! No idea where they came from!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CrozB:
Less visible finger oils on Screen Protected Screens

I am always surprised that no one mentions less visible finger oils left on the screen as a reason to purchase a good screen protector. Since switching to Ghost Armor it drives me crazy to see the amount of oils left on the glass vs the Ghost Armor. I even had to get my Nook Ghost Armored because it just looked so dirty after using it once or twice after cleaning the screen. I am a huge Ghost Armor fan boy and plan to get my phone done today of they have it is stock.

-
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Product F(RED):
The one Sprint puts on not only interferes with touchscreen sensitivity (any keyboard I use), but it also makes the smudges 10x more visible. Until I find a better brand (non-wet type), I'm going naked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
You sure you can't wipe them away? I never had a screen protector on my EVO 4G and continue to not have one on my E4GT and not a scratch on either. That being said I don't think Gorilla glass protects well on drops but putting it face down or in the pocket with some keys and coins it should be fine. I still prefer to keep it in it's own pocket anyway.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CrozB:
After having the Ghost Armor put on the phone, I was very surprised to see a subtle rainbow effect on white screens on my phone. I just looked (side by side) at the EVO next to my ET4G... There evo owner agreed with the rainbows in my screen. Then I compared to a Infuse as I think they have the same screen as our phones. Again side my side I had very noticeable vertical rainbow lines on my display that were very noticeable on my ET4G on a White Screen.

Going to take it back and have them re-do it and see if it clears it up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gigadigit:
I notice those on my screen too at an angle with white office light. Looks bad.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CrozB:
I had them re-do my ghost armor and it looks MUCH better now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greeneperson:
I just bought the zagg protected two days ago. i had to after having the phone for a day and it getting a scratch already. It was the oonly one i could find at the time and didn't want to risk another scratch. After using it for a couple days Im pleased with it. Other than it making the screen a little "grippy". But got used to it. And i donto see why you all don't like the wet protectors. It was the easiest protected to put on. Even comes with a little squeegie!
[Omnia 7 General] jyusa:
I bought my Omnia 7 online in U.S., but Omnia 7 is not an U.S. carrier's model.

Does anyone knows how to get Omnia 7 service in U.S.? Please help. :confused:
[Omnia 7 General] jyusa:
Samsung Sucks!!!

Doesn't anyone know how to contact Samsung for the service of Omnia 7 in the U.S.? The website of Samsung U.S. does not provide ay chance to this model.

Samsung provides a service phone number 1-800-726-7864 but answered automatically in a loop. Never go through.

I will never buy any product from Samsung again with such poor product and services. Samsung should learn Apple's services before steal Apple's technologies and designs.

I hope Samsung management would be able to read this post.
[Omnia 7 General] emigrating:
But you said it yourself - you purchased a device which is not a US model. Did you really expect support for it to be forthcoming?

Anyway, what's your issue with it? Perhaps we can be of assistance?
[Omnia 7 General] jyusa:
Thanks for offering me the assistance.

My phone is working except it would be rebooted by itself and continued to reboot in a loop until remove the battery for about 10 minutes. I have tried everything including battery change but could not make it work normally.
[Omnia 7 General] Sherwet:
Go to a Repair Center

I know, it sucks. I've got a a major screen problem and they can't even do a thing about it.

Your best option is to go to a reputeable repair center like: Cell Phone Repair (CPR).

I don't know if it is available in your area, but you get the idea.

Also consider purchasing a Squaretrade Warranty for any further issues.

Hope I was of any help.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] petey00:
After unlocking my bootloader, I attempted to flash a custom kernel. The flash attempt failed and now I am not able to boot up my phone.

I am not able to boot into CWM or XRecovery.

When I hold on to the power button, the led blinks green once and the phone vibrates but the screen is black and nothing happens. I have tried the the repair phone option with PC Companion to no avail. The repair process fails shortly after it starts.

When I connect the phone to my computer (Win XP), the led light turns green and stays on and PC Companion says phone is connected. PC Companion is not allowing me to update the phone's software even though it say the phone is connected (can't recognize the phone?). I am not able to see the device with ADB.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Peter
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Lancerfq:
have you tried SEUS or Flashtool to flash stock kernel back? i got a crashing loop when i tried to flash custom kernel with the rom i used and i just connected it to pc, started flashtool, clicked on flash then on stock kernel then ok, then connected phone and held back button until phone crashed and went to reboot then flashtool managed to pick it up and start flashing stock kernel before it booted up fully, hope this helps :D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] petey00:

Has anyone had any issues with apps using the internal storage instead of the sd card? Any app I download it uses my internal storage to save. How do I change this so out users my external automatically?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tornlogic:
Yea I'm having the same phucking problem and I'm totally fed up with it. I'm about ready to return this POS because Motorola in their phucking infinite wisdom decided to partition the internal memory the way only an idiot would

Wtf? Are you freaking serious Moto? For real. I'd like to meet the idiot who's idea it was to come up with this.

Now we are all limited to a non removable 8gb SD card basically. I can piss 8gb. Where do I freaking put my music Motorola you dumb asses?

Every app I've installed and wanted to use can not have the default location for music changed. So I'm stuck with this tiny ass partition, and an empty 32gb card.

Why the hell even include an External SD card Motorola, why. Its useless
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jpeckinp:
Download App2SD from the market. You can move almost all the apps to the SD card.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] sciman111:
I noticed this too when I installed the Amazon MP3 store although If you create a file on the External SD card and manually move your files there the music app will see it and play it from there. You can alse mount the phone on your computer and manually move them or use Astro File Manager to move them on the phone. It does suck though to have to jump through those hoops. Why you can't just change the default location is ludicrous.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mngdew:
Obviously, you guys got your Bionic very very recently.

DO NOT TRANSFER APPS TO SDCARD. IF YOU DO, YOU WILL LOSE THE APPS AND YOU NEED TO REINSTALL THEM!

MOTO configured Bionic differently (stupid!), and forces all apps to be installed in internal memory.

However, you can still save your media files on the external sdcard.

p.s. Don't use APP2SD on Bionic.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Utah_patriot:
Why is their a better app? Is their a fix
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Invixtus:
Why the hell would moto do that. Hopefully a ROM can fix this issue.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jpeckinp:
I've been using since day one and it works fine. I haven't lost any apps and haven't had to re-install any of them.:confused:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Underwater Mike:
You can use the program to move apps to the media area without issue. As for moving them to the microSD, it won't let you do that, even with root. So, I'm not sure what the fuss is about?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dellenrules:
When your phone boots up, it fails to properly recognize apps saved to the media area.

To prevent it, just keep all your apps saved to phone until an OTA arrives addressing it.

Search the forums for disappearing apps to get filled in.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jpeckinp:
OK I thought the media area was the SD card. But I still haven't had a problem with the apps disappearing.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Underwater Mike:
Neither have I, and I've been using it for almost a week. FWIW, I haven't seen any of the reports of this problem mention Gingerbread or the Bionic. Not saying it can't happen, but I think app updates have fixed the problem.

UPDATED: Been losing apps left and right today. This isn't an APP2SD issue, but a Bionic issue stemming from the way those tards at MOT decided to partition the internal storage. Why do companies do stupid crap like this? :eek:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dellenrules:
While I was playing around with my lapdock I discovered something intersting.

I was installing some apk files from my back and discovered that my lapdock had several partitions mounted which started with "com."

It didn't take me long to realize that they were the programs moved to my media area.

They apeared as Ian drives and couldn't be innounted.

I devices to test out a suspicion and restarted only to find that those apparatus disappeared.

After some more testing I realized that by moving the files on the phone between the storage and phone until it no longer loads that app as a drive, then that app won't disappear when the phone is powered off or rebooted.

I know that not everyone has a lapdock to get around the disapearing apps, but this is a temporary solution until a fix is actually released.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bert336:
Motorola! Fix your crap and quit slipping!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nerdkill:
i'm so confused about this, i had noticed when i loaded my sd card nothing was getting recognized like widget locker themes stuff like that. then i notice that everything is getting downloaded to the internal memory. i went into settings> storage and changed download location to sd card, but everything is still downloading to internal memory. i just don't understand why it isn't looking at my sd card automatically like all of my other phones did, droid x, t-bolt, og. it's driving me effing crazy though. can someone maybe explain in dummy terms what is going on?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dellenrules:
Look at it like this...

Your phone has 16GB of internal memory.

4GB you never see. The system uses that 4GB

8GB is read as internal storage. Motorola designed that for media. That means your videos, pictures and documents.

4GB is for apps. This is where it gets complicated. These 4GB is dedicated to your apps. It was designed to be unintrusive with your main partition.

You shouldn't have to move to SD. Not needed.

Some wishets will only be recognized when the app is on your phone partition.

Does this answered your question?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eromrab:
Just go into "settings, applications, manage applications" and click the "media area" tab. Any apps that have a "check mark" in them are stored to what is called the "media area." If it reads "com.*" then it has already been uninstalled. Just go reinstall it. Then go in there and all the apps with the check mark... click on the app, and then click the "move to phone" button. Wait a few seconds while it transfers it.

Sadly this is annoying and also sometimes makes the market think that the apps are not installed.

Freaking Motorola. They make such good hardware, it's a pity they put such crap inside.

Ok, let's try to explain my goal:

my work email allows me outside intranet access if entering via phone browser only. Access setting up an exchange account doesn't work and forwarding email (to mail gmail) it's blocked. All my bosses own a company blackberry and they DO have email pushed to their phone. This morning a colleague (not a boss) whith his own (not company) blackberry has been able to have the email pushed to his phone, using standard exchange "procedure" (name, password, exchange server). We are a bunch of colleagues android/iphone equipped but nobody else never suceeded in this contest. This is really upsetting me! I'm thinking that trying to make my company server thinking I'm accessing via a blackberry should do the trick, but never read a similar request/tentative before. Plan B could be finding a (paid) service which could fetch via webmail my emails and then forward them to my gmail (as gmail fetcher isn't able to fetch via webmail) but couldn't find nothing similar on the net.

Hope to have explained properly... any idea?
