What is the grippiness feel of the glossy finish, like the metallic case? More or less in terms of grippiness/smudges/lint magnet versus the matte case?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rizzxx7:
I love the cases and I've ordered it in every color. I'm going to keep the white and sell these two which is the metallic and matte black if anyone is interested
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dogtag:
That shouldn't be an issue , when U do use the 3pins its prob. in an dock of some sort, without the case anyway. :)

@donutman

WARNING 18+

It's made for the gsm version. And boy does it have a tight fit... had to remove the batt. a couple times to day (changing mods)... wow REALLY tight fit. Still loving the port caps.

THIS REVIEW IS ON LTE VERIZON I515

I wanted to take the time to post my own review of the Ringke Slim case. This thread is the reason that I went a head and purchased this case over many others that I was debating. To help others I registered and this is my first post. I hope this helps others in making a decision.

I have the Verizon version i515 with the standard battery. I do NOT have the extended battery to try the case with so I can not attest to it. I would be more than willing to bet that it would not be as satisfactory with the extended.

FEEL

How a case feels in hand is very important to me. I don't want it to be cheap, flex, or otherwise make my very expensive phone feel cheap. The feel of the case is fantastic. It is smooth but not as slippery as holding the naked phone on the sides. It adds enough weight and thickness to the phone to help it feel naturally durable while remaining slim and low profile. Holding the case from any angle, pulling it out of my pocket, setting it on my desk, or just holding my phone in adoration all feels right and my wife may be a bit jealous;)

LOOK

Looks are almost as important to me as the feel of the phone. This case looks like it's a natural extension of the phone while providing the right amount of protection for my needs. The side access to the volume and power buttons look beautiful, all the ports line up very well, and when using the phone it looks like a naked large white Nexus S. To me, it's the best looking case I have ever owned and ever seen first hand.

SATISFACTION

I'm very satisfied with this purchase. At 25.00 it's slightly expensive but the shipping was free, fast, and the service was great. Everything that this case offers is fantastic and I'm very pleased with the purchase. If you are debating this case among others, I highly suggest this case as a wise investment for your amazing Galaxy Nexus.

Shipped to Sydney, Australia

Just received mine - Matte black RingKe slim, shipped to Sydney, Australia.

Rearth found out that there would be a 2 or 3 day delay on shipping, straight away they sent out an email, asking if I was OK with it and that I was entitled to a full refund. Of course I was happy to wait! RingKe are true professionals!

The item ended up shipping on January 5th from LA and I received it on the 12th in Sydney - not bad!

The fit for my Australian Galaxy Nexus is perfect and very tight with no give. Perfect!

I also have a Case-Mate Barely There (whose products have always been excellent in the past) but it was way too loose. About 0.5mm give on the top and bottom, and I could flex the case so easily - Not good! Could it be because the LTE version is a tad thicker? Maybe.

All in all, 10/10 for build, quality and communication!

We'll see how it holds up after a few months when it's been tossed around and pulled out of my jeans pockets a few thousand times :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fascinate:
Can anyone compare the feel of the glossy finish to the Diztronic TPU case? I feel the Diztronic case is still a little bit too slippery for my taste.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rizzxx7:
These cases don't feel cheap like the tpu cases, they're very solid and look amazing once installed
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jayrod1980:
How is this case on the inside? I'm wary of hard cases because they usually have burrs or are just otherwise hard on the inside. They give you a nice surprise when you take it off... scratches galore! is there some kind of soft rubber or something on the inside?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
The inside is covered in leather to prevent exactly these issues. I don't know about the sides though .. but the back has a nice leather applied to it. It is also described on their website.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rldev:
Has there been any update on a proper fitting LTE case? I'm holding out for this as this is the only case I want.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] esoomenona:
I've heard reports from others that the case does fit the CDMA version...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rldev:
Where? I have not seen one post stating that this case properly fits the CDMA version of this phone. By proper, I mean the screen is protected with the lip. I would love for this to be the case.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
There is no perfect fit on the LTE type. The guys making the case responded to a XDA user (by email) that they are considering doing this in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boom1shot:
Edit: didn't read that right

You're right. It doesn't fit. You can push on the bottom of the phone in case and it feels like a sloppy fit on the CDMA version. It also does not protect the top two corners/edge of the phone. Running naked with a screen protector till I find something viable.

I also want to mention my RMA has not been processed. It's been 3 weeks now - I will resubmit it. The response I did receive mentioned that they were very disappointed in their product, nearly verbatim; but nothing since then. As great as I'm sure this case is on the GSM version, it's misleading to advertise it as a fit for the CDMA and, additionally, the company is relatively unresponsive in a multitude of cases. Kind of disappointing really.

Well, I did let you know, Chuong. What's the deal?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jakirkla:
Received my Metallic case today and I like it a lot. Fits so much tighter than the Diztronic Matte Black TPU case I was using. I am a fan and may order one of the matte black ones too for variety.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] be_born:
Hello folks,

i'm running minicyanogenmod 2.0.7 (= CM 7.1/Android 2.3.5) on my X8. I tested it with the Sony Ericsson Live View yesterday, but it didn't work all that well. For example, i couldn't control the music player or access sms:es. I could, however, use the "find phone" feature and adjust the music volume level.

I wonder, is there any work going on to resolve these problems, or better yet, is there a fix available already that makes most if not all functionality of the Live View work on miniCM?

Cheerio & thx,

I have an HTC Sensation 4G with LeeDroid ROM 4.0.1. I am looking for either an ICS ROM for the Sensation or the ICS gTalk app apk. I really hate having to use gTalk with the email address I registered the phone with, as I never use that address.

Also, I've downloaded InsertCoin ROM and another Sense Stock ROM (I cannot remember the name). I am using GO Launcher Ex and when I do a full wipe, flash the ROM, it works great- for about 30 minutes and then when I try to use one of GO Launcher's transition effects, the phone crashes and will not recover. It just boot loops. It's happened with two ROMs so far so I restored the backup of LeeDroid that I had in CWM. Anyone else have trouble with GO Launcher and stock Sense ROMs?

What's the optimum dimensions for wallpaper on the Galaxy Nexus? It has that weird frame thing like on Honeycomb. What size would we need for a 1:1 pixel equivalent wallpaper? It really doesn't make sense cuz the homescreens don't really rotate when you go landscape.

[HTC Sensation] maxe30is:
I realize many of you see this as a dumb question. But I see a lot of posts about radios. I've tried looking around the web what it is but couldn't really find good explaining information. I see a lot of posts for flashing the radio and a lot of different versions.

I'm running MIUI on my Sensation 4G and if radio is something I need to flash then I want to know what it is before I try flashing and brick my phone. So I've managed to find the version I have so if someone can point me the right direction I'd be very grateful.

So the main question is - WHAT IS RADIO?

So this is what I got

Radio - 10.14.9035.01_M
[HTC Sensation] laawrence:
the radio pretty much just has to do with the wireless connectivity of ur phone, so ur wifi, bluetooth, 3g all controlled by your phones radio.

you shouldnt have to flash a new radio for every rom, if your facing problems, and think a new radio could fix them then you could try a new radio if you wanted.

hope this helped :)
[HTC Sensation] maxe30is:
Lol oh yea definitely! very simply put too! I just was wondering why there's so many versions and chance of bricking dam thing.
[HTC Sensation] Neo:
Flashing the radio is just about the only sure fire way of bricking it.. It's one of those things people are most skeptical about flashing. No nandroid will save you with an improperly flashed radio ;)

EDIT: I've been flashing roms for a long time now and not once have I ever had to flash a new radio.

OK. I installed the HD Revolution 3.6.9 ROM days ago and have 2 major issues. As I am a new member, I am unable to post in the developmental section. Grateful for the OP to ask the question as I am also seeking to know "what radio is".

Although, I also want to ask - what is a kernel?

I believe thousands of members installed that HD Revolution 3.6.9 ROM and I couldn't find any reference for bluetooth and mms issues.

My phone can only detect my Nokia phone, my Plantronics bluetooth M100 is undetectable.

I am also unable to send MMS and yes, I tried the original settings, called the network and played with different settings but problem persists.

I checked the Hardware Information of the phone and it says "Bluetooth address - unavailable"
[HTC Sensation] maxe30is:
Kernel is a bridge between applications and the actual data processing done at the hardware level. So basically kernel tells all the hardware what to do (overclocked processors, undervolted batteries and etc) So far best one I've tried for Sensation 4G is the 2.6.35.14 Trinity S4G. Processor is overclocked to 1.7Ghz from stock 1.2 Ghz and the battery life is great!
[HTC Sensation] maxe30is:
btw try wiping you sd card and then flashing the Rom. helped me few time (im no developer :D)
[HTC Sensation] Hardcore69er:
Obviously some radios are better than others?

Like the goal for man:

We want the best and we want it now.
[HTC Sensation] maxe30is:
Well that I'm not sure how accurate this statement is. That's why I started this thread just to know what it is. But from all the info I gathered online, you don't really need to flash a radio. Every thread with radios I saw that ppl will put a warning that you might brick your phone. So, my phone works great, never had any problems so I'll stay on the safe side (for now) and just do more research :p

Forgive my ignorance if I'm missing something here >.>

but apparently MIUI is already in progress for the LTE Nexus ... really? our phone came out over a month ago and we havent seen anything from them ...

and MIUI isnt the first thing I've seen give exclusive work into the LTE version only .. there are others I cant remember, but the point is.. why the hell is the locked down LTE version getting so much attention...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theboo7:
How's the LTE variant locked down...?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
sigh .. locked down to Verizon .. whereas the GSM is open to a wider audience .. thats all i meant >.>
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theboo7:
Oh okay. Well it was update time for a lot of the OG vzw devs and most came to the GN
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
ah, that sounds about right.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xHausx:
If it's coming to one phone odds are it will be working on the other in very short order. I'm assuming it's just because the dev porting it owns an LTE device. My advices is to learn how to port ROMs and then you won't have to wait on anyone ;)

In any case, threads like this tend to do nothing but attract trolling so I'll just get it over with and close it now.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXxBurtonxXx:
Hi all, i've recently rooted and flashed Android Revolution all went well and fine. I rooted using the newest version of ACE Hack etc...

Anyways I've been running the stock radio from TELUS on my DHD since I bought it and I'd like to change it to what AR ROM recommends which is 12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M.

My stock RADIO is 12.56.60.25u_26.10.04.03_M.

My problem is that I cannot flash this new radio. I followed the directions within the RADIO folder but I get a "FAILED remote not allowed"

The directions i fallowed are:

1. Connect your phone into a PC, and make sure that USB Debugging is enabled

2. Click "Start here". A black command prompt window will open

3. Type: "adb reboot bootloader"

4. Once your phone is in bootloader (white screen with text), type "fastboot flash radio radio.img"

5. When the flashing completes, type "fastboot reboot"

6. Done. Enjoy!

NOTE: I installed HTC sync like it asked as well.

I also tried to flash using the ACE hack kit i plugged my phone in ran the app typed 4 hit enter etc.. but after my phone restarts the ace hack hit menu screen loops and absolutely nothing has changed... I did have one issue where my phone booted and said "NO SIM" but after i restarted it went away.

Any help on how to flash this radio? it said not to flash using clockwork so i havn't.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JSLEnterprises:
no you dont. just need the radio.img in a zip

command: fastboot flash zip nameofzipwithradioinit.zip

zip must be in the root sd directory (meaning; not within any folders) and it will flash without issue with 'Radio S-OFF'

if its an original zip from an ruu or ota add "oem" in between 'fastboot' and 'flash' with spaces.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flussen:
You still need s-off for this method... fastboot commands are locked at ship hboot

Hey everyone. Here's a screenshot I took of my phones battery use. I was just wondering if this rate of discharge is normal. My screen brightness is always let to the lowest possible, all power saving settings enabled, phone overclocked at 1.6 with ondemand governor. I am using the sensay XE35 v 2.1.0. How could I improve battery life, any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] mattjorgs:
Screens of the battery use screen would be very helpful.
[HTC Sensation] strabo100:
Did u let ur phone battery cycle a couple times?
[HTC Sensation] laawrence:
Thanks for the reply guys, stabro I've had this Rom for about a week now shouldnt the battery be calibrated by now, or does it need a little longer. And matt, isn't that what I uploaded or is there something else that I need to upload
[HTC Sensation] mattjorgs:
The screen you were at before you clicked the graph to get what you already posted. It shows a bunch of apps with how much of the battery it's been using.
[HTC Sensation] laawrence:
Oh haha sorry, blacked out for a moment :p

Here's the shot of that.

I have no idea why it doesn't show actual apps, but I havnt messed with it. I'm assuming its rom related?
[HTC Sensation] LBN1:
Was your wi-fi on the whole time, and is your cellular service always on even in standby? Changing those can have a large impact. Did you have better battery life on a previous rom? Is it the stock battery, cause if so, the life on it is typically not very good.

I've found in all the Sense roms I have used, display is always right at the top in battery use. I would normally have mine at a set brightness like 45% during the day and 25% at night which would drop display usage a bit. Plus try underclocking instead of your overclocking to 1.6.
[HTC Sensation] mattjorgs:
That might be because you had plugged it in for a few minutes. It shows the battery usage since the last time it was disconnected.
[HTC Sensation] laawrence:
LBN1 yeah I always keep WiFi on, my phone is always on 2g mode. Before this Rom I was using miui, the battery on that wasn't the best but it would see me get through the day with medium use, and prior to that, ARHD by far best Rom for battery imo. Yeah I still use the stock battery, though I'm thinking about buying another battery.

I've read somewhere, cant remember where lol, that a low signal uses a lot more battery as its constantly searching for a Signal, I think u guys have noticed from screenshots that my house, has very bad reception
[HTC Sensation] Sigg1996:
Do you use your phone alot? I am gaming alot on the phone during schooltime, and it DRAINS battery (1% per minute almost) And I usually charge my phone when I come home again. And what kernel do you use? I use Bricked 1.6 beta, and it's awesome (1.5ghz ondemand)

Some things that helped me a bit was:

-Calibrate battery

-Undervoltage (download system tuner and hit 6 times on the -12.5v button)

-Juice Defender ultimate (It works really good for me)

Hope it helps :)

A friend has the null IMEI issue and I want to try the procedure outlined for the Samsung Captivate in the following thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=881162

Samsung Captivate Android Development - > RESTORE IMEI and Product Code w/o ADB, PC (ALL DONE ON PHONE) nv_data.bin

I don't think the product code used for the captivate will work with the nexus S. Can someone tell me the product code to use when editing the following lines in nv_data.bin? (copied from the above thread!)

00188008|2e|34|00|00|00|00|ff|41|.4....A

00188020|41|41|54|54|00|00|00|00|AATT....

Sorry if this has already been conclusively shown as not possible for nexus S. Some people on the captivate thread have managed to restore it using this method and I thought it would be worth a shot.

The nexus S in question is the SLCD version i9023.

Given below are the steps that caused the issue.

==============================================

Some days ago, official ICS for Nexus S was released, but my cell couldn;t auto update because it was running a custom ROM. I tried to follow this procedure to switch to 2.3.3 or .4. (http://www.pcworld.com/article/242759/how_to_revert_your_android_smartphone_to_a_stock_rom.html )

Installing the above ROM, my cell went berserk. The ROM booted fine but 3 of my touch buttons wouldn't light up and keyboard input alignment was all wrong and I had to remove battery and restart it every time I wanted to go back into some other setting.

After 9-10 restarts, I managed to reach the update setting, downloaded Gingerbread 2.3.6 OTA and installed it. It worked perfectly, and I was all set to download ICS and install it. Then I followed this link and installed ICS reaching where I am at the moment. (http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/manually-install-android-4-0-3-ics-update-on-nexus-s-download/)

This ICS works perfectly fine, except that the phone is not receiving any network signals whatsoever.

I had made Oxygen's backup using CWM's backup feature on the cellphone and I thought I'd restore it, so I did a vol up + power, and selected recover. The cell restarted, showed a dead android, and booted into ICS. Several attempts have resulted in the same.

So I wiped twice and reflashed but was still keeping my old background. So what I did was boot up in clockworkmod recovery. Then I did a wipe/data factory restore and rebooted phone. It booted up with the bionix reloaded rom and had the proper theme. So if you have this issue, try factory reset and that worked for me.
