I just received my incipio silicrylic for the verizon gnex today. It actually doesn't add too much bulk, like I was expecting. But I was kind of disappointed by the included screen protector. It covers pretty much the entire screen, but because of the curvature of the gnex, it bubbled up around the top and bottom edges. It also scratches pretty easily: it got scratched when I was using the squeegee to remove the air bubbles. But other than that it didn't really affect screen quality at all. But overall, I'm pretty happy with my incipio silicrylic
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wanderfowl:
Got the Incipio Silicrylic. It fits alright, but I've got an otter box commuter on the way as the Incipio doesn't fit as well with the extended battery and its a bit sticky getting in and out of pockets.

Hi guys.

I know the Case-Mate tough case isn't in the comparison, but I definitely think it should be in the discussion. .... I just got this case today. I really like it. It has a lot of protection While minimizing bulk. I personally don't like to have my ports covered up (like body glove) so this works well for me. My favorite part is how the phone feels in my hand now. .... just my two cents on my new case for what its worth.

Did you guys trick it into thinking your device was compatible?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] daughertydevin:
GTA III costs a few bucks but worth it ran flawless on my bolt. The game it self does a check before starting to make sure your rom and ram is ok if not black screen is all you will see. Most people have the tendency to open the app and get the black screen easy fix just close any other running service you dont need then free up some ram, go back and should work if not close out open again 3rd times the charm I always say. And for capadable device it wasnt tested for the thunderbolt after I beat the game I messaged the rockstar guys basically saying a thumbs up for the thunderbolt.

[Acer Iconia A500] Deisel23:
Ok try to make this brief.

Just got a refurb A500 3 days ago.

Totally stock firmware, NOT SURE WHAT VERSION

Day one works great, tells me there is an update...I do said update. (I don't recall any of the update numbers.)

go to bed wake up next day...spend day 2 customizing/downloading Apps. learning the device in general.

Get home on day 2 and turn it back on....small update needs done. download small update, system restarts, and then the gears inside the Android quit spinning.

EDIT adding some thoughts:

I realize this may be a hardware issue (being a refurb)...it seems odd to me that it just started ater a small update I did.

I wait about 30 minutes, nothing happens.

So I power down, power back up. Brings me to the unlock screen. Won't respond to anything.

I tried the power plus volume down, cache clear...nothing.(didn't get me anywhere)

When doing the following:

1. Turn off your tablet

2. Place the screen lock button on the left (red not visible)

3. Hold Volume UP + Power button

4. After the vibration, release the power button and toggle the screen switch few times left-right until you see the following lines appear on the screen

Erasing Userdata...

Erasing Cache...

It just sits at the "Erasing Cache..." until I power it back down.

Been to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113878

and tried a full version from 3.0,3.1, and 3.2. All have the same results....the android comes on and the green bar at the bottom gets to about 90%...gears stop moving, bar stops moving.

When I try to boot it back up, sometimes it just hangs at the "android" screen. other times it will boot into a "system shut down" screen.

I have no idea what to do. I don't want to (and don't think it would if I tried, to root this). But I do want to get it working. For the 12 hours or so it was working, I LOVED IT!

Any ideas/thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I have never owned an Android tablet, nor have I ever rooted any device...so I am still pretty new.

I did search, but could not find any answers....so here I am asking you guys.

ideas ?
[Acer Iconia A500] Deisel23:
No ideas ? That's a bummer.

Now, this will give you an unstable version of an early version 3. But, it will allow you to root, and run Acer Recovery (between the errors) that will in turn allow you to run a stock rooted ROM.

Word of advice. Copy the files to SD first. That way, it'll be easier. Place them in the root of the SD>

You can get acer recovery from the http market.

Iconia root.apk, you can get that zip from the "rooting threads" here in the forums.

Also, while you are downloading, grab a stock Pre-rooted rom from the dev section, or a somewhat semi-cooked one like Harkon.

After you have successfully ran the first step, then install the iconia root.apk using the file manager. Then, acer recovery to install your recovery.

Let it run it's course, then re-boot to recovery (vol - and pwr, till you see the text in the upper left corner, then release the buttons.

Do a wipe on all 3, User data, cache partition, then select Advanced, wipe delvak cache, back out,, and select "Install zip from SD", remember, after you select each one, you still will be required to navigate to the selected item, and select it again.

Then "select zip", and select the Harkon zip, or whatever you downloaded,

Let it go. Might take 20 minutes, who knows. So best to have a fully charged battery. It will tell you when finished.

I would guess, you didn't let things finish originally. These things can take 15 or twenty minutes.

Although most folks here are experienced, some of understand that others are no so. And because of that, you might get some n00b comments.

And if you have a question, please, post it here before you do something stupid ;)

Seems like you were on the right path, but I would guess, you didn't give it enough time to complete. It happens sometimes.

Oh, I also forgot to mention, to Format your SD card on your PC. FAT32 before doing any of these things. This will be sure to remove any update files and such, before running procedures.
[Acer Iconia A500] Deisel23:
Thank you for the reply. The device is at home charging now. I know I will have some more questions later! Thanks again!
[Acer Iconia A500] entropyiv:
My gut reaction is maybe your refurb unit got a bad flash chip in it.

In particular the errors trying to format the cache and the freeze while loading.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Yeah, one would think that might be possible, but, due to the fact he/she ran the first update with no issues, I would probably rule that out.

Especially, if it were the "flash" chip, as you refer to. This would be the factory bootloader image. So I think we can rule that out.

Not sure what Acer has in mind for a threshhold, as far as successful updates. Maybe 85%. Maybe 90.

But the fact remains, when you run an OTA, it is not promised to be 100% successful. Probably why 30% of rooters and rommers switched from stock to a custom rom. Got tired of failed OTA's.

Regardless, confidence level is high that we can get this person back to a usable system.

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:47 PM ----------

Not a problem.

But after charging, I have to put the question to you. Is it still under warranty? If so, at this point, it is easier to return it for an exchange. If possible.

Or you can come to the dark side, and join the rest of us.
[Acer Iconia A500] Deisel23:
hello all, thanks again for the replies...reply's ? whatever...

anyway, I was offered a refund and can reorder...I think that's what I am going to do. I don't want to root this thing, and have them tell me that since I did attempt to root it they won't take it back.

I would much rather fix it, but I think I am going to take the more assured road. Sorry for wasting your time.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Don't worry, you didn't waste anybody's time.

It happens.

But the next time, don't take the OTA.

We'll walk you through the root process. And you won't get issues.
[Acer Iconia A500] Deisel23:
update for anyone that cares.

I was offered a refund from beach camera, where I bought the device and I am going to take it.

I was also told that if I would like I could re-purchase the device. Well, I got it from their Flee-Bay store for $250.00 and now they are all out.

I have ordered about $90.00 worth of accessories and LOVED the device for the short time I had it.

That being said, I can't see paying over the $280.00 range for this.

If any of you guys know of any sales, please let me know.

Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] br125:
is there any reason that I SHOULD NOT accept the verizon ota update after rooting?

Just got home and rooted it 10 minutes ago and haven't gotten around to flashing a rom yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voxigenboy:
generally, regardless of your phone, once you've rooted it's best not to do any OTA update as it can screw up your phone.

if it's one of those "i absolutely need this OTA!" deals, then it'd be best to un-root first, apply it, then re-root.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Danny80y:
It's risky....Least it will do is install and unroot. Worst you could be stuck in the stock recovery....and that's not a fun thing to mess with.... If it bothers you your better off just flashing CWM and a new rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] br125:
yeah I'm going to flash a new rom and forget about it.

Looks like android revolution is gonna be the first attempt.. any suggestions otherwise?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] casca_the_immortal:
Im on revolution and it is still nagging for ota update :( any way to disable the nag?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phazen18:
For other phones, you most definitely do NOT want to accept OTA's. For this phone though, the bootloader can be locked and unlocked at will, so OTA's should be okay to accept, in theory. ;-)

If you want to be absolutely sure though, just listen to the general advice of "don't accept OTA's".

so any body know if they are working on it ?? at we gonna have zoom or they give up on that bug ?!:(
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
My opinion, you don't need zoom.

You need an app that can crop a picture because that's exactly what digital zoom does. ;)

So shoot your pics and then edit them (I use Picsay and it's awesome) to isolate the details.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosty666:

All digital zoom does is makes bigger blobs of colour.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
Have you ever seen a phone's camera lens pop out?

...

Exactly!

All phones have digital zoom only.

Also, unless you are in a great hurry, it takes less than a minute to crop a picture and then share it in any social network so no biggie.

hi im tring to download honeycomb explosion but it says its for deodexed e122 rom in the video. I dont know what that is? i have a rooted 2.3.5. with super user permisions. with CWM5 and thats it everything else is stock. so what is a DEODEXED EI22 ROm.

also if i install this theme how do i get it back to stock sansung gingerbread if i wanted to.?? thanx
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
A simple google of this will give you an answer on that. But easy answer is most custom ROMs are deodexed for ease of modding and stock is Odexed. You should run a nandroid backup of your system, flash a custom ROM then flash your theme. You don't like it then restore your backup.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eddie_gordo:
Hi.

I come from an HTC Desire and I have some backups that I made with MyBackup Pro of some app's data. Relevant data like some games progresses, Libra's database, etc. MyBackupPro has an online backup and I backed the data online on the HTC Desire and tried to restore it in the Galaxy Nexus. The Galaxy Nexus recognizes the backup, shows the apps that are backed up, but when I press Restore it says that I should reboot the device and that the restore was OK almost instantaneously. Nothing is restored, no data is transferred to the phone..

Is there any other way to migrate this kind of data? Shouldn't MyBackup Pro be working on the Galaxy Nexus?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eddie_gordo:
Anyone? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flakz0r:
Maybe the app needs an update for ICS? Try to check their site to see if there's a reported problem, that's most likely the case. :)

The only problem Ive had so far has been restoring SMS with Pro.

Even with busy box installed its suuuper slow at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eddie_gordo:
I sent them an email, I'll wait for an answer.. But I guess it is due to incompatibilities with ICS too.. :(

AmesCell, I have always used MyBackup while using the Desire, never had a problem. Anyway, I still have the Desire and can use Titanium, but my Galaxy Nexus isn't rooted, and Titanium needs root.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmesCell:
Your signature says your Desire is rooted. Rooting the GN is easy. I go through 4 phones a year. I couldn't imagine doing that without Titanium.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eddie_gordo:
Yes, the Desire is rooted, but I wasn't planning on rooting the GN so soon. I just got it 2 days ago and I want to see how this goes without any "hacks".. :)

I wouldn't have rooted the Desire in the first place if it wasn't for the lack of updates, etc... That's the main reason I bought the GN, having a more official support. Let's see, I'm almost sure that I'll root it in the future, but I don't want to do it right now.. I'll just wait for the Rerware answer to my email and see how it goes. :)

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangu:
Any update?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eddie_gordo:
Rerware already answered, but no updates. Although I think I know what the problem is. I am only backup up app's Data, because they are already installed in the GN. But this is a "root only" feature and, for what I understood, non-rooted devices cannot restore this kind of backup, only APK backups. I asked this to the guys at Rerware to see if there is a workaround.

When I have news I'll post them here.

restoring your data/sms/backups is a "hack"

Enable advanced options, click restore and restore backup and only select the data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ertuzio:
I managed to solve the problem......

First my story:

I decided to install new ROM on my phone....i backed up apps and data with My Backup Pro (i bought the app)

My phone is rooted of course.

So i installed the new ROM and then i installed the My Backup Pro and started to restoring apps but i didn't get the app/data/app+data popup

and of course i couldn't restore my data from apps. i got really frustrated and browsed the web and couldn't find anything.

I started everything from the begining uninstalled all apps and figured it out that i did something wrong....and that is this that My Backup Pro doesn't work as it should without busy box...u have to install Busy Box before installing the My Backup Pro!

Follow this tutorial in order to restore your apps + data

Backing up apps on android (rooted) after installing new ROM

With My backup pro application

1. Backup apps + data

2. Backup dictionary

3. Backup all other data you want to

Install new ROM and then start restoring by this order

1. first install busy boxes i found there are two (BusyBox and BusyBox installer on the google store. install both)

2. install My backup pro and when asked to install additional options for rooted phone choose yes (now you should be able to choose between app/data/app+data to restore)

3. restore apps + data

4. thats it...enjoy!

It worked for me!! :good:

That's called color banding, kinda similar to this:

http://img.tapatalk.com/b4c17a64-3d72-bd9b.jpg

It's is a software issue that's caused by rendering images/textures in 16 bit mode, which doesn't look all that brilliant on the S2. Using 24 bit mode should resolve this, however not all applications run at this color mode.

There is no fix as far as I know apart from developers forcing their apps at 24 bit natively.
