[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
Ok so I dropped my shooter this morning while getting out of my truck to pump gas. I completely forgot it was on my lap. The screen did not brake but the plastic or metal piece around the screen got dented and pushed up a little bit. It does not effect the phones performance in any way. Would this be covered since its only cosmetic? If so I am worried about having them fix it because I still have hboot 1.4 unlocked and s-off. I do not want them to update anything. All I want it for them to fix what's broken and nothing else. Would they take it upon themselves to update it even if I told them not to. I have used the insurance once before but that was only a couple of days after release date so hboot 1.5 didn't exist yet. My phone jumped out of my pocket while I was up in my tower Crane 240ft up. Yeah there was no saving that phone. The guys at bestbuy said they had never seen anything like it. I was kind of proud of my accomplishment and very glad I had the insurance. It paid for itself the very first week.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
Having dealt with best buy insurance a number of times. Yes. Its covered. No, they probably won't actually fix it. They will replace it with a refurbished one and it will take a few days to ship it to you. The refurb will likely have H1.50 or even 1.6... I dunno. I read that a couple people got 1.6

:-\
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
Well that sucks. Maybe I will try to find someone to fix it for me then. I don't want to deal with all the crap that comes with 1.5 or 1.6. Its definitely worth it for me just to pay to have it done. My insurance has already paid for itself anyway.
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
This was a fall from 240ft up. I was expecting much worse.

I like your screen protector lol
[HTC EVO 3D] AyyRayy:
They will send you a basically brand new phone . Iv already used my best buy black tie protection twice. Both of mine came with 1.3 but that was before 1.5 released. You still have a chance of getting 1.3 or 1.4. Both phones I got were never turned on and it was months after the 1.4 ota and they still had 1.3. Just go get a new phone :p

That's that gorilla glass, son!
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
So I call my local sprint repair store to see how much it would cost to fix my phone. The Guy I talked to told me that they are not set up to fix cosmetic damage. They will only fix it if it effects the performance of the phone. I told him this is not an insurance claim and I am paying out of pocket for the repair. His answer was to take it to a third party to have it fixed. I don't get it, damage is damage. Its not like they are a body shop and need a paint Booth to fix the thing. Well I guess I wont be giving them any of my future business, witch I am sure they could care less about.
[HTC EVO 3D] six_shot:
I bought a new 3d from best buy, about a week ago, and it came with 1.4....so happy coming from the super-locked Droid2
[HTC EVO 3D] kellybrf:
youre asking a mechanic to do the work of a body shop. cant be upset that they wont do a job theyre not supposed to in the first place
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Dude.... I just have to ask you..... What kind of shape would your phone have to be in for you to declare that it was in a "much worse" condition than that first picture showed it to be????

On fire, possibly????

Radioactive???

Maybe a phone that had Tourette's Syndrome???

Holy Moly.

(BTW, glad you got insurance to cover that..

It would've gotten old, really quickly, having to keep pulling that monstrosity out of your pocket....)

<<work in progress>>
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
The store I called is a sprint REPAIR shop.

They REPAIR and sell phones.
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
When I say I thought it was going to be in worse shape I meant that I didn't think it was even going to resemble a phone at all.
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
He's right. If you're gonna call yourself a "repair shop", then "repairing things for money" might just be one of the first things you should consider doing.

Just my opinion, of course.

<<work in progress>>
[HTC EVO 3D] Col. Sanders:
I thought the whole selling point behind the Black Tie insurance policy was to replace the phone in store with a new or upgraded model and not a refurb/used one if they cannot fix it. Asurion will either send out a new or refurb one after you pay the deductible.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
No the selling point is you don't fork out 100$ if u break it however it can take weeks before u get it back
[HTC EVO 3D] kellybrf:
sprint does not REPAIR cosmetic damage, hence the analogy. a body shop is a repair shop, but theyre not going to fix a blown engine. a mechanic is a repair shop, but theyre not going to pound out dents for you. you have a cosmetic issue, sprint repairs functional issues. therefore, youre barking up the wrong tree.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I'm pretty sure any repair shop (bestbuy/sprint/asurion) will just replace the housing if there is a cosmetic issue.

I know that bestbuy replaces the housing all the time even if it is a mechanical issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
I am not asking them to fix the broken piece I am asking them to replace the broken piece. They are parts changers I reailze that. Bondo, dent puller, and paint not needed.
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
I am going to stop by best buy and see if they can just replace the broken piece.
[HTC EVO 3D] kellybrf:
no, you dont realize it. anyway...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] muumia4:
So how much can NEO really bump out the noise?

How high can you overclock the processor before it really burns out?

In short: What are the "on the edge" settings that beyond you would break the phone?

Im not talking about battery saving in here since its obvious that more power takes more battery.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
Its not hard to break speaker....right "Mhz" makes this job fast.

Cpu limit is about 2Ghz right now...but I think using 1Ghz and changes voltages "not right" is easy to break even with stock 1Ghz.

Brightness ....well. 255 is max I think.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] skyboyextreme:
i guess overclocking goes as high as 2ghz but 1.8 ghz is the safe point without breaking the phone, for me i would stay @ 1.5-1.6 ghz personally !
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
Superdim goes till 255, wish it could get higher like on the Arc...

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] beezwaxibiza:
My girlfriend has an X10 mini (E10i) on Vodafone Spain. Firmware 2.1-update1

The SIM lock has been removed and she is using it with a Movistar Spain SIM

Her first problem is that it's often extremely slow to react, gets stuck on screens etc. and occasionally selects the wrong things.

The second more serious problem is that it often doesn't receive calls. The phone will have full signal and be right next to her, but callers get connected straight to her voicemail, without the phone ringing.

Has anyone else had these problems with an X10 mini pro? I've done a fair bit of googling but not managed to find much out yet.....

Thanks in advance....

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] necrohades:
yes, you just have to download the right firmware (e10i for x10 mini; or depending on your carrier, e10a.. check first with e10i, and see if you will still get 3g. if not, it's e10a).

do you mean i should try the e10i firmware first and then re-flash with the e10a if i have problems with 3G?
[Thunderbolt General] labtec3:
Corrective actions for Exchange email after loading a HTC Sense 3.5 based ROM on an HTC Thunderbolt. I am currently using InfectedROM Eternity (with the stock mail.apk) but had the same issue with other ROMS. This probably is the same for any of the newer ROM's. My IT guy said others within the company had similar problems after buying a Sprint phone with newer ROM. Although there seems to be many reasons different phones will not work with exchange mail our particular problem was related to how the newer email.apk with stronger security integration reacts with exchange server. I noticed once setting up the ROM it would error after setting the PIN. The policy warning "details" read something to the effect "Remote Computer Access" required. I had our IT create a policy for me that included “Allow Internet Sharing from the device” and “Allow Remote desktop from the device”. This corrected the problem and all works fine now. It is likely only "Allow Remote desktop from the device" is required.

As I mentioned before the InfectedROM Eternity has a modified email.apk which does not require a PIN. This version will work (no PIN required) before the changes were made to our exchange server. I want to stay within our security policy so I downloaded a copy of "Stockmail.zip" onto the SD card, booted into recovery and loaded the zip file to overwrite the modified mail.apk file. Once the exchange server policy settings were changed all worked fine. My only concern is the IT guy will start freaking out and want to change me back to the other policy settings. I have searched but cannot find any modified version of the mail.apk that would correct just the remote access issue but leave the PIN requirement in place. Any help to find such a version or guidance on how to modify the mail.apk would be much appreciated.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tone_Capone:
Hey Guys! I'm visiting from the Droid X forums wondering about a certain idea i have been thinking about for a while....

The droid X has been plagued since its conception by its locked bootloader. Even though the dev field has made aw esome strides with this device (2nd-init)(Don't worry if you dont know what that is), we still have to rely on Moto giving us updated kernels. We do have Gingerbread, but the Droid X will likely never see ICS.

I really dont feel like buying a brand new phone for a while, mostly because im friggin broke lol. One of my best buddies has a Captivate, and I love the ease of use when it comes to flash-ability and complete control of the phone, especially with the unbrickable mod! With all these pluses, and the fact that since the Fascinate is a Galaxy S phone, with the same internals as the Nexus S, I'm fairly sire that the phone will get ICS some how.

I already have a used phone I have found that a guy is selling for really cheap. Depending on its condition, would you say its a good buy?

Thanks is advance!

Tony

I think the Fascinate is a great phone. I'm sure we'll be seeing ICS not too long after the source drops. Just like droidstyle said, if you can find one that cheap, I'd do it.

The fascinate is still hands down a very powerful phone. My buddy just got the Droid Bionic and it only gets average 25 fps in quadrant scores. My fascinate gets about 50 or more. So, yes it is still an awesome phone.

Hi;

My question's is when I check "system info" on Quandrand Benchmark, sometime it shows 2 cord, but most of the time it show 1 cord; does anybody know why; if there's a reason, is there anyway I could set the CPU running 2 cord all the time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demon_man:
I noticed this the only reason i could grasp was maybe the phone wasnt doing enough work for it to see both cores functioning at the same time when i tried antutu i think thats what its called it showed me 2 cores if i had music running in the back ground if that makes any sense, i presumed it would just show both cores like yourself
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Quadrant is NOT optimized for Dual core devices. So whatever it shows doesn't matter.

You've to do nothing to run the device on two cores, it will automatically run when it needs to.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
Just to be sure, disable power saving mode before running a benchmark.

This will adapt CPU frequency and number of activated cores to the system need.

You have to flash a compatible kernel to enable this feature.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1263838

Then use Tegrak's 2nd Core application from market.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tegrak.secondcore

With this app, you can have the cpu run in

1) Dynamic Hotplug Mode, which is the stock behavior where in second core is active only when the load is high.

2) Single core mode, where only one core is active even if load is high.

3) Dual core mode where in the two cores are always active, even at low loads.

Option 2 will give you more battery at the cost of performance.

Option 3 will give you more performance and higher benchmark scores at the cost of battery.

Hi guys!

I've bought Arc about month ago and I've noticed a problem with battery percentage, it has oscillations. For example, battery is on 25% and suddenly drops to 2 or 3% and for a while battery is on 18%, or battery is on 84%, suddenly drops to 74% and soon comes back on 85%. I've restarted the phone, repaired software but the problem is still here.

Battery life is very good, average life is 36-48 hours, but there is a problem with oscillation. Can anyone tell me what should I do?

Bootloader locked? Rooted?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hygge:
Hi Sidious

It sounds like your battery are fluctuating more than normal, a drop of 20% is definitely not normal unless you are doing allot of booting and flashing at the same time.

One cause of the smaller oscillations could be that battery is not read as often when in deepsleep to save battery life. It might have some battery level estimations when you wake up the phone that are off by a few % when the next battery reading occur. Might also be temperature changes that also change the capacity slightly.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D. Sidious:

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bazoocaze:
Battery sensing module automatically calibrates when it discharge from 100% to 2% or lower. So, let it discharge a few times to 2%, and try to do a light use (no games, etc) doing this, to help fuel gauge module to detect internal battery impedance and correct the % marking.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hygge:
Hi Sidious

If you had the bootloader unlocked and was flashing new kernels or firmwares. I have noticed that the phone when in "fastboot" mode do not charge but consumes allot of battery, it usually shows as a sharp drop when the phone are booted up. "fastboot" can be used to flash new kernels on the phone, but I do not think this is the problem in your case when you are running the SE provided firmware only.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] king_hari:
hello, i wonder if someone would help me out a little bit, a few days ago i started to try modifying the default MusicPlayer.apk on my Galaxy 3.. i extracted the stuff from the .apk with winrar, edited the .png files inside the "res" folder and then repacked all the files to a .rar archive,after that renamed it to .apk and resigned it (i tried even without resigning) but the app wont start..due to this is a system app i know i cant install it from the file manager,but usually it has to begin the installation etc.. i only get something like a parsing package error..any help would be appreciated,and thanks in advance..

[sorry if my english is wrong] :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] GalaxyDrei:
Of course it won't start ;)

In the apk there are also more folders than the res-folder, you only see them if you decompile the apk.

But you only have to decompile them if you want to edit ...9.png (eg with that) files, otherwise just extract them to edit and afterwards add them again with WinRAR or something like that
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] king_hari:
in fact i did extract all files and folders so i repacked all of them again :D im sure i didnt miss any files,the problem is that i dont know what else the problem could be :confused:

danke trozdem für die hilfe :) help is always welcome

Edit: I found out how to do it :D open the .apk as an archive (with winrar or something similar) extract the files you want to edit,edit them and put them into the original .apk you wanted to edit (youi open the .apk file with winrar,and drag the edited files and just drop them to the opened archive,and let them get replaced) and done!!

I edited the original MusicPlayer.apk of my Galaxy 3 so that it looks like the Xperia's one (just edited some .png files)
