Hi I recently rooted my mom's phone by following the guide in the android development sub-forum, and now I would like to update to the new OTA, yet she has the new clockwork mod recovery how do I get the OTA update and install it correctly. She is rooted on the stock rom with a kernel. And how would i do it without losing her launcher setup and data.

this is great! but i have deleted some bloatware off of her phone through titanium backup. Are there any zip files or ways to get them back so that then i can use this process?

As much as I like XDA the search function is worthless!

I am running samurai kernel 2.0.8 and marcusant revival rom v1.

Plugging my phone into usb does nothing. On my phone other then show charging. No pop ups... PC keeps popping up with unreconized device... Drivers are installed everything used to work fine prior to acs 5.5 rom. Anyone else experiencing this issue or know a fix?

I previously had gps issues that would just not work no matter what I tried. Switching from acs v5.5 to marcusant revival v1 fixed gps on it's own.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Does it show anything in the drop down notification bar? Could be a bad cable. To see if it is hardware or software, backup, Odin to ec05 stock and check it. Even if it recognizes it on EC05 it could still need you to update the drivers.
[Epic 4G General] troyolson92:
Nothing shows up there....

Ec05 works great.

I think it's the lock mod. I can't change batteries either. It only boots using this one battery........

Hey Crew,

So while I'm waiting for my Nitro to turn up, I found a couple of good cases on eBay.

Not a whole lot of choice at the moment, however you can pick up a good-quality TPU in a lot of different colours from this eBay seller (EDIT: These cases have a corner cut-out for the DTV antenna on the Korean Optimus LTE). They're marked for Optimus LTE on the back, but the finish is good and the actualy feel and presentation is excellent. I went for the 'glitter white' and it looks pretty nice!

If you like brand-name stuff, the only thing I could find was a Speck CandyShell from this seller. I went for the white back, black front version. Yet to receive this one.

Post here if you had any more awesome case finds! :)
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Is there really a hole in the upper corner of the case? Besides that, the cases look nice, but I'm not sure why there's a corner missing in the case, as there's no port of any kind at that spot. Does your case also have that exposed corner? Thanks!
[LG Nitro HD] 8mileroad:
I'm getting the Go Ballistic Hard Core. Might not be brand name (maybe it is?) but I'm sure it will do the job. I doubt Otterbox will make something and this looks like the next best thing.

http://www.goballisticcase.com/collections/lg-nitro-hd
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
There is. This case was built for the Korean Optimus LTE, which has a TV tuner extenable antenna in that position.
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
Ballistic is definitely brand-name, and they are awesome. I had one on my Infuse and it was great. They do add an awful lot of bulk and weight, but their protection is unmatched, even by OtterBox.

Nice find! :)
[LG Nitro HD] blopez24:
I bought the body glove case at an at&t store. Fells good n doesn't add any bulk.

[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
I haven't seen the Body Glove case yet, do they stock it at AT&T? I like the BG for this Atrix 2 I've got at the moment.
[LG Nitro HD] blopez24:
They should I bought it in store here in Los Angeles.

Sent from my LG Nitro HD
[LG Nitro HD] dasfiend:
I haven't gotten a case yet, but I did find these three cases on amazon:

Smoke aka gray

Purple

Pink

AT&T is having a 35% off promotion on cases, so I bought the body glove
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
Nice finds! I am eagerly awaiting the HC Ballistic mentioned above. Awesome cases for rough jobs :-)
[LG Nitro HD] 8mileroad:
Wait no longer, it's been available on the official AT&T site for around a week.

I bought like 4 different cases for my Nexus One, after a while (about 5 months) I just didn't like anything and carried it NAKED! Ahhhh, it's good to be free!

I have to admit though, that Ballistic HC case makes the Nitro look MEAN! Like not only am I NOT afraid to drop my phone...But if you mess with me, I'll use it as a projectile to HURT you! :cool:

I think I'll look for just a nice neoprene sleeve for my Nitro until I'm comfy enough to carry it NAKED too!
[LG Nitro HD] dalamchops:
SGP Ultra capsule is available now... ordered a white one.
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
Man you guys are spoilt with cases. In Australia, we never get SGPs or Specks or Ballistics etc. The fanciest we get is a bloody OtterBox!

I love the SGP for the SGS2, so will definitely grab one for the Nitro.
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
When someone gets the SGP ultra capsule, could you let me know if the corner of the phone is really exposed like it shows in the pictures on amazon? I think it's open for the Chinese model which had a tv antenna, but there's no reason for it to be open for the p930, and I KNOW if that corner's out, that's the corner that's going to hit the ground after I drop it on day one =) I just got this black TPU one in the mail from amazon

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006MPH3ZW/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details

I love it. No unnecessary holes and it's a really nice, tight fit. Only comes in black (no pattern, thank god), though. If the SGP ones don't have exposed corners, I'd love to get the white one! =)
[LG Nitro HD] dnorthington:
I work for ATT and got the ballistic case for free. Its huge. Ginormous.
[LG Nitro HD] HotWhipT/A:
So I got one of these phones and I've never actually had a "new" phone that just came out. About how long does it take to get some decent cases to choose from in the market?
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
I just noticed that the SGP cases are TPU as well

http://www.amazon.com/SGP-Nitro-Ult..._1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1324607570&sr=1-1

They look fantastic.
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
They are very good quality. I think they also sport the hole for the DTV antenna, though. I have one for a GS2 though and they're awesome cases!
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Yeah, it does have the hole on the right side of the case to support the dtv antenna.

Anybody knows where to get a Speck case for this phone? ATT sells a pink one, but yeaahhh...I'm not gonna test my manliness with a pink case.

I'm also surprised that Incipio is not in on this phone like they were with the atrix. They were one of the first cases available for the Atrix.
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
There's a link in the OP where I got my Speck CandyShell from mate.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
LOL!! the funny part about dat is I actually had clicked on dat very link when u first posted it, n i completely forgot about it! Thanks sir. ;)
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
No dramas. Haven't had a Speck before, but a bit better quality than Case-Mate, which is impressive. I'm a fan at this stage!
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Hey guys, would it be possible to make a review for the cases you guys have? Probably just a quick sentence or two on how you feel about the case, and maybe some specifications as well. But most importantly, can we have pictures of the cases? I'd like to get the Speck case but I wanna see how it looks on the phone. Thanks guys :D
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
I'll do up a quick comparison for you when I return from holidays on January 4th :-)

I am a bit scared to use the Nitro (hence the signature) while I don't have any protection handy!
[LG Nitro HD] 8mileroad:
I've tried both the Ballistic HC and SC.

For the Ballistic HC, it disappointed me with a ton of minor flaws, and a few major. My biggest problem with it is that it completely ruins the screen of the Nitro HD with it's terrible and non optional built-in screen protector. It's effect is very hard to explain, but it basically puts a film over the screen that makes the screen look somewhat like it is very steamy all over, but that explanation doesn't do the effect justice. You'll have to see for yourself. Another major one is to plug it in you have to really dig in there and pry out the USB port covering under the case's one and put it on an angle, which really makes me think it's going to rip off. I guess that's not a problem if you all ready tore your covering off, but I hadn't. My third major problem is how hard the case is to get off. It takes a great bit of effort with a small coin and every time you take it off it gets harder to open and looks worse. On my third try it was nearly impossible. Then there are minor problems I had such as it's size (but you can't fault it on that one), and the film it puts over the camera actually hurts the quality of the images. Also, somehow dust manages to get inside of the case and under the screen.

The Ballistic SC is actually a great deal better. I got this case after returning my HC. There is only one problem, and it's that it isn't compatible with the Moshi Screen Protector, and possibly others. The rubber on the sides make the screen protector pop off. Other than that, it's actually a great case. It's rather small, it has no horrendous built-in screen protector, it's easily removable, and it's easy on the USB covering. It's basically a smaller, slightly less protective version of the HC but without all of the cons. I'm returning this case for a case that is compatible with the screen protector but odds are it works with other screen protectors.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
btw, are we allowed to attempt to sell something here on XDA? I kinda read the rules but to me seemed a little vague as to what it covers. If we aren't allowed to try and sell something here, how do we go about it then between XDA members?

Edit: Nevermind lol....saw the marketplace section on the main forum page :D

Re-edit: Please have a look at my signature :D
[LG Nitro HD] tokie_:
so no otterbox yet for this phone ?
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Admin, this might break the rules here sorry, but I'm a bit desperate lol! So here it goes:

Guys, in case you haven't noticed through my signature, I am selling off my Ballistic Shell Gel Case for $25, shipment included. It has never been used and still comes packaged in the original box. You can see the pictures here, along with the post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20791397#post20791397

I am not using it at all, and it's a waste to just have it sit here collecting dust. Hopefully one of u need a good protective case :)

Admin, if u must remove this, then do so, but if u can, let it sit here for a bit for everyone to see :D Thanks!!
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Juzz86, I just noticed something with the speck case u r purchasing and I hope it's just me. But do you notice the opening on the case by where the lens and flash is suppose to be? On it, it is showing as a long horizontal opening, while on the Nitro HD, the layout of the camera lens and flash is vertical in the middle. I think that case is not meant for the Nitro. I hope u didnt get that yet.

Wait! It says HTC Vivid on the image! That is completely the wrong image!.
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
Correct buddy, it's for a Vivid. You can just make it out on the front, and as you mentioned the camera cutout is identical to the Vivid. The same seller is also selling Speck cases for other phones, and just using his Vivid images.

I queried the seller about this so this is from the horses mouth, so to speak :)

As long as I don't get the pink one I'll be happy! :p
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Lol! Did he show you a picture of what you might be getting? I'm curious of how it looks and am always worried of buying something I don't see yet :D
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
I emailed the seller and he fixed the post, NOT by posting the correct image, but by changing the post to HTC Vivid. And on top of that, he added new products to sell, specifically the PINK Nitro HD Speck cases.

I'm afraid he is sending you a Pink one my friend :( Best to reach out to him asap before u get jibbed.
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
Haha, good looking out mate, thank-you. I also contacted him again, he had two black/whites and a few blue/pink I believe, so either I got in quick and got a white one, or I'm getting the pink one lol!

I'll know for certain tomorrow when I return home from holidays. Will let you know for sure then!
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Awww crap, I just gave in n bought the SGP TPU case. I've been waiting for over a week now for new cases to arrive, but I don't wanna risk breaking my phone :( N if this seller those have a black/white candyshell case for this phone, I'm gonna be heart broken lol!

Oh well, if he does sell it, then I'm selling off my SGP case! haha.
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
I ordered one too, I hope it's nice. I also ordered a pack of 2 Realook screen protectors.

Going to pick up the phone later on.:)
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
I think the SGPs have the antenna hole for the Korean Optimus LTE also. I bought two of the Mercury ones (in the OP, I got glitter white and black) and they are uncannily similar in finish and quality to SGP, right down to the included peel-off screenie. I wouldn't be surprised if they came from the same plant.

Either way you wont be disappointed, quality is excellent.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Yup, it has the hole as well, but oh well, just gotta make sure I don't drop it on that corner lol :D

Damn it! Why didn't I check your post first before buying. I could've gotten that one as a temporary. Didn't need to spend almost 19 bucks for a TPU case -_-
[LG Nitro HD] scmurphy13:
Case-mate is releasing their Barely-There case for the Nitro soon.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
I'll have to consider this option. I haven't seen the barely-there case in person, but the pictures look nice.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Just wondering, how did you find out about this?

also, they kinda look like the incipio feather cases in design. I might just like this :) I hope they have many color options.
[LG Nitro HD] scmurphy13:
If you do a search on Amazon.com, you'll see pics of the case.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Thanks :)

http://www.amazon.com/Case-Mate-CM0...=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1327127321&sr=1-1-fkmr2

They got the black and Pink (I don't have a F'ing clue why they are releasing PINK colors instead of other more common colors. This the 2nd company to release Pink before other colors).

Now it's saying flexible plastic shell. Do they mean flexible like TPU or stiff but slightly flexible plastic like incipio feather?

It seems the case isn't gonna protect the camera lens n flash like the SGP case does (albeit it is much thicker).
[LG Nitro HD] PMad:
The barely there case is going to be just like all of the other barely there cases. Its a hard plastic but its slightly flexible. Its also VERY thin! I like case-mate cases but i wont buy one, its too thin for me, meaning its only got scratch protection and not drop protection. I'm *hoping* they come out with the Pop! series for the nitro. I bought one for my HTC Inspire a long long time ago and that thing is the best case ive ever owned! Looks a tad funny at first, but feels perfect in your hands(and pocket)!
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
how long will dat coupon code last?
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
Barely There's are top-notch. They are almost identical in feel and finish to Incipio Feathers. My only gripe with them is that because they're harder, they don't usually cover the top and bottom bezels of the device.

That said, the BT for the Torch 9800 did, so here's hoping the Nitro bucks the trend!
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
It looks like it will cover the top n bottom with cutouts for necessary components.
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
I can only see it from the front, so hopefully you're right mate!
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Just adding this to the mix:

http://www.amazon.com/Protective-De...WA/ref=sr_1_93?ie=UTF8&qid=1327722661&sr=8-93

http://www.amazon.com/Protective-De.../ref=sr_1_106?ie=UTF8&qid=1327722683&sr=8-106

Those are "protective Decal Skins". Not really a case, but some people like to have their phone naked, and this might just be interesting to some :)

I don't know how that will work with the ridged back cover though.
[LG Nitro HD] juzz86:
Probably the best case-related post I've seen in quite a while, thanks very much for sharing your thoughts and photos.

I suspected that the Barely There wouldn't cover the top and bottom bezels. Disappointed, but not unexpected, that this is the case. I'd have to agree with you on the BodyGlove - that looks amazing.

I found it difficult to locate a case available to Australia that wasn't designed for the Korean model with the antenna. In the end I settled on a Mercury-branded TPU from eBay. I still haven't been able to source a Ballistic which would be my next choice, and I'm yet to see an OtterBox at all.

Again, appreciate the post heaps. Thankyou :)
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Itiskonrad, Great Review on the cases! May I suggest posting the same thing on a new thread with some kind of title so newcomers can immediately see it instead of digging into this thread to find it? :)
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
I also have the Body Glove case. I bought it simply because it was the only local option (AT&T store) on the day I bought the Nitro. I actually am quite impressed with the quality and kinda like the looks of it. It is textured in all the right places, giving me grip where I need it. I had a tpu case from Diztronics (tpu-cases.com) on the Skyrocket I owned for a month and loved that. This Body Glove case is actually a tad bit nicer than that.

I don't like the $30 price tag that AT&T puts on it, but I found out when buying it that I get half off accessories because of my account status.
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Thanks, guys! I didn't think it'd be that interesting to post as a new thread, but why not =)

And yeah, I really do like the body glove. And you can find it online for around 14/15 bucks (what I paid for it), so it's not too bad.
[LG Nitro HD] Cam R:
Another case

Hey guys, just thought id point out another case i thought looks pretty good

http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/lg-nitro-hd-ballistic-shell-gel-sg-series-case

seems pretty durable in my opinion. and you can get it for $20 on amazon/ ebay.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Lol! I just sold that off to someone. It wasn't my favorite design. To me, it was very bulky due to the bumps on the corners. Plus the rubber part of the body easily attracts dust and they don't come off easily. But, if you want maximum protection to your phone, that case is perfect for it.
[LG Nitro HD] Cam R:
alright, thanks for your opinion.

Also, its probably a good thing i didnt go for this one !

How is the rollout of LTE going for Bell? Telstra have made a pretty good start over here :-)

Aquariuz, thanks for the ballistic SG case, I am enjoying it. It is a bit hard to pull out of pockets, but its worth it knowing my phone is well protected from falls.

I'm.pretty sure the Mercury and Cozip cases are churned out at the same plant. They're ridiculously similar, just the screen-printed logo is different. That said, they are quality cases.

Maybe your phone has just been debranded that's why your unable to do updates via Kies, you could ask the seller what carrier the phone was on when they bought it but if I was you would just use odin to flash your roms things come out alot faster on here than Kies.
