[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
Even since my Blackberry days, I have always used screen protectors. This phone represents a big departure for me from that..

I have a belt carrying case or I'll carry the phone in a sort or jacket pocket after making sure nothing else is there.

Carrying in pants pocket is out of the question..

To me the glass and the coating are part of the design of the phone and in this case the shape and texture of the naked screen is what really makes this phone stand head and shoulders above iPhone, Samsung Galaxy or any other higher end peers.

In my opinion, adding any protector in addition to

the silicone case Nokia provides would really take that advantage away and dumb the phone down..
[Nokia Lumia 800] vnvman:
Yeah i feel that too, but you know i'm an offroad rider and the place i live also has some quite sandy ground...i've always managed to scratch every surface i was carrying with me, even the sapphire cristal of my good old Sector watch, so i'll be always too scared to carry a phone naked, especially if it's so damn beautiful...i'm a dangerous man i guess :D
[Nokia Lumia 800] chaihg:
I bought a Nillkin screen protector and even though it works really well, the cutting is only till the border of the actual screen. It does not go till the edge where the polycarbonate body begins.

So conclusion is that it sucks. I will be interested in any other screen protector anybody has tried which can reach till all the four edges of the screen.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Itaintrite:
Use those flexible protectors like Invisishield/BestSkinsEver etc. You can stretch it while applying.
[Nokia Lumia 800] jamesbrampton:
Is a screen protector needed? This phone is fitted with gorrilla glass...
[Nokia Lumia 800] Wiggy Fuzz:
i have to admit my screen gets immensely greasy - i don't think it has any kind of anti smudge coating on it. at least mine didn't - i haven't seen anybody else's one.
[Nokia Lumia 800] chaihg:
Every screen irrespective of it being a Gorilla or Chimpanzee needs a protector. If you have sensitive eyes you can make out minute microscopic scratches that form in an arranged fashion after 2months of use. I hate it.

I am still looking to see if there is any protector out there that can fit edge to edge. Shucks with all the technology out there people cant make a thin plastic sheet that fits a curved screen ?? :(
[Nokia Lumia 800] Heldorn:
Skinomi's protections cover the whole screen. I purchased one, and quite happy about it. Fits perfectly egde to edge. It's not a rigid plastic protection like the cheap chinese ones, it is flexible and bends naturally on the curve.

You can find it on Skinomi's website, thought I think it is cheaper on amazon (like $6 or $7).

Don't worry about the picture you may find (which is one of an N9 screen protection) there is only one hole for the sensor on the actual protection.

Happy to answser any questions...
[Nokia Lumia 800] chaihg:
Hey thanks for that tip. Is it possible even with the any camera you have to take a small pic of your phone with that protector and post it here. That will be the decisive pic for this topic.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Heldorn:
Best shot I could get. It is almost invisible anyway.

View attachment 870526

About the installation, the protection comes with a spray. It feels a little weird to spray your phone with this solution but I found the application actually easier than with the usual "dry" protections.

Note that it will probably be scary ugly after the installation (microbubbles, haze...) but it gets better after a few hours (12 to 20 in my case) and perfect after a few days.
[Nokia Lumia 800] ccampos89:
Honestly i wouldn't go generic, you get what you payed for. Trust me i've learned the hard way haha
[Nokia Lumia 800] chaihg:
Fantastic. It is truly invisible and sits neatly edge to edge. I could only make it out from the hole given for the sensor. Good job and thanks a lot. I am ordering one now from eBay.
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
Thanks Buddy for the screenshot, just ordered one from the U.S., the UK seems to have some cacky ones, currently I am using this one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360428462851

Not a full screen protector either and I paid more...-_-
[Nokia Lumia 800] dannejanne:
I don't like screen protectors. Never use them.

Besides this phone has gorilla glass. I have not even managed to scratch my other previous phones without gorilla glass after months of use. I rather take the risk of getting a little scratch rather than take away the nice touch feel of the screen.
[Nokia Lumia 800] jamesbrampton:
I will second that!
[Nokia Lumia 800] Pume:
Then you must not have exposed it to sand. I have managed to scratch almost all the screens I have had on cell phones without a screen protector even if they were made out of gorilla glass. Sand is the enemy to every screen. Metal, like keys or knives, are softer that the glass but sand (or some particles of sand) are not.

I just bought some cheap chinese screen protector (dry application) and it looked horrible. Had it on for 5 minutes and then ripped it off. Have to find a good soft wet application protector now, hopefully before I manage to scratch that thing of beauty.
[Nokia Lumia 800] vnvman:
I've heard good reviews of the Skinomi ones, so I may go for one of those. Does anybody know if the full body (transparent) version has something to cover the super-scratch-prone chrome around the camera? If you know about any screen protector with that feature please let me know, otherwise I'll order the screen only version and use some (custom?) workaround for the chrome thing...
[Nokia Lumia 800] arkedk:
Thinking about getting this:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Nokia-L...607711?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4ab238341f

Anyone tried that one?

EDIT:

Just ordered it. Hope it's good.
[Nokia Lumia 800] vnvman:
I did order a couple for my Omnia a few weeks ago, but unluckily they came faulty, with pretty irregular cut borders and a nasty white drop of some kind of glue in the middle. They were totally unusable. I wanted to send them back for a replacement, but a couple days later I've lost my Omnia at a concert...oh well :rolleyes:
[Nokia Lumia 800] ua330:
This one doesnt look like it goes to the edges of the glass.

Could you verify that once you get it?

thanks
[Nokia Lumia 800] svarog84:
+1 for Skinomi

It fits perfectly
[Nokia Lumia 800] eldenst:
please upload a few pics of this protector.
[Nokia Lumia 800] svarog84:
I'll try when i get home but i think that it will be very hard to notice it on photo. And you have it few post above
[Nokia Lumia 800] _TXN_:
Gorilla glass will scratch with dirt and rocks in your pocket. I demolished my Evo 4G screen. I did landscaping last year. If there is an Otter Box for your phone I would get it. If only for when u r off road
[Nokia Lumia 800] vnvman:
Oh well, in the end I got tired of waiting for my skinomi protectors (shipping from US takes long) and I ordered a couple from some italian ebay vendor because they are bloody cheap and ship in 1 day, in spite of the bad experience I had with the Omnia. Have you got yours already? Do they look faulty or anything? Please let me know.
[Nokia Lumia 800] ua330:
I ordered the same one, only for the screen - not full cover.

It came in and it DOES cover the entire screen, doesnt look faulty, but I havent installed it yet to see how it feels cause I'll be selling my Lumia and getting an unlocked one soon.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
Hello this is a theme for the stock 2.3.5 firmware (28.12.11). For normal u8800, not Pro.

The firmware from Huawei is kinda weird, so many people have problems installing this. I made this the same way as my other themes but the phone have problems applying it right, so you could end up with a bootloop or only some parts of the theme being installed right. One time it installed right and was working, but after I flashed the same .zip again the phone ended up with a bootloop. We can only hope that Huawei will release a new firmware which will fix these bugs. In that case I can update the theme easily.

If anyone want to try to fix this they are welcome to use my theme and make a new thread ;)

Sorry guys, I have tried but could not fix it..

Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for any harm that comes to your phone as a result of applying this mod.​
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] krish_nank:
Looking wonderful can u add battery percentage and also is it possible to add transition to framework.res, i have tried it only on miui ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
Yeah I can make a flashable zip. Actually tried to add transitions earlier today, but it don't seem to work.. Try yourself :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Davoss:
Looks very nice, thank you.

Is it possible to move lockscreen ring to the lower third of the screen? Then this will be perfect ics theme.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
Here. It is an addon for the theme. For 2.3.5 u8800. (Will update later today! some have problems installing it).

Got a few transitions to work, but the rest doesn't seem to apply..

Not sure, this is the lockscreen which came with the official 2.3.5, edited my way. Made some improvements for it, removed the big circle, and the wave + alle the icons around.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] krish_nank:
Ok quick q? can u reduce the opacity of the dailer little bit..

Here is PNG file
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yannn007:
I get a bootloop when installed this with 5.0.2.7 CWM (installed 2 times and never worked) :(:( Any idea what could be wrong ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
Ensure you have the normal u8800, then try to wipe dalvik cache. If that don't work then flash the "revert back to stock".
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] DGirgin:
Flashed with 5.0.2.7 , got bootloop,

wiped dalvik, reverted back via ur link, still bootlooping

EDIT : revert back worked

EDIT 2 : flashed with 5.5.0.2 , now it's working. Good Work, Keep it up

also, can u theme the notification power widgets, that would be awesome ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
would love to use your theme, but get bootloops when installing via cwm 5.5.0.4 and without wiping anything :(
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trocLas:
I also had the 2.3.5 installed, flashed the "2.3.5.batterypercentage.zip" and rebooted the device. Then, it started bootlooping. Don't know what happened :|
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
I think that sth ins wrong with the zip
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
Dont know guys, i have flashed those things many times with no problems. I am using 5.0.2.7. Looks like it is working for most people, and a few not. If it does not work you can try to install the "revert back", then my theme.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
how did you made this theme?

i tried to flash it with genos 5.02.7. recovery = bootloops.

but i still ahve bootloops even with reverting back to stock ? :(
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yannn007:
I managed to fix bootloops :) I think it starts bootlooping when you flash it with bundled apps removed. So i restored a backup I made before i removed bundled apps and flashed it again and it worked :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] faizan_950:
how to remove bundled app and which app???
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yannn007:
I said that you should NOT remove bundled apps ;) check that-guy's tutorial if you want to know how and which ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
I installed stock again and got the same problems as you. I have been messing with the update-script and got the theme to install successfully with no bootloop. Will test some more tomorrow, and maybe have a new version up Friday/Saturday if it is working correctly.

Those who want can try to edit the update-script to this:

ui_print("Test update-script..");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
package_extract_dir("framework", "/system/framework");
package_extract_dir("app", "/system/app");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");

Sorry for the problems! Weird that some worked and some failed!

Edit: I installed stock once again and with that script the theme worked. Can someone else try it and report?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Repeal:
Quick question, Can I still use that even I removed the Huawei's ugly launcher and lockscreen ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
I updated the first post with fixed theme (new update-script). It worked for me, but I need someone else to test it. Make sure you have a Nand backup, and post results here :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] faizan_950:
still stuck with bootloops and i am using stock firmware did i need to use some other kernel???

please fix the bugs thx in advance
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:

thanks it v4 work with my system:)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Typhoon_PT:
have a bug on lock screen, the icons of sms, lock, cam and registry don't appear.

Other than that this theme looks really good :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
I guess it's just the way it is :) same on mine.

huge thanks for this theme skifyr123, really appreciate

My tip is: I did several tests and I realized that this theme can only be installed with CWM 5.0.2.7, installing through CWM 5.5.0.4 will end in a bootloop situation.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yannn007:
Worked at me with 5.5 recovery ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nefsim:
Sorry for the problems! Weird that some worked and some failed!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
I've installed the theme and everything was ok untill I reboot the phone.

It entered in bootloop!

I'm using CWM 5.0.2.7
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] VuDuCuRSe:
I installed the theme but the lockscreen is the same, so as the notification dropdown window and the wifi/3g/ icons :s

now I have a mix of old an new things... did I miss anything?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
That is a bug, somehow the phone fails to install the last 4-6 .apks. So some parts (including the lockscreen and systemUI.apk) is not installed.. which is really weird.

You could try to flash it again or push the last .apks with adb.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] VuDuCuRSe:
Did that, but now it's stuck on the static Huawei logo. :(

Wiped cache and master reset, but nothing... :|

EDIT:

1) Restored a backup and did a Full wipe.

2) Flashed the zip

3) Did another Full wipe

Now after booting I have to stock 2.3.5 UI.

Could you explain better what your zip does?

Does the Full wipe undo any change set by your zip?

EDIT 2:

Re-flashed and now it's working as expected. Probably there are some conflicts with previous configurations and maybe that's why it got stock on boot before.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Sumea:
Thanks for the theme - I do not like imitating the ICS as much as just having something else to dress the not-so-good-looking huawei default look to.

I used the 5.5.0.7(?) CWM recovery, I backed up my rom, installed, and wiped dalvik cache, after rather long boot, everything works and looks fine, unless my choice box buttons have something wrong in them, what I would not know.

Looks nice, works nice. Like before in thread, the "USB data enable" screen yiffs because everything else is blue.

I also did not like adding google music into package so you have TWO music applications and both unremovable unless you go in to it with root explorer, does not help things that your version of google music is outdated as well.

I fixed this by removing it with root explorer and copying the old one to safe place, removing it too, and installing the newest out of beta google music from a thread here.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
I'm using the theme at the moment :D

I'm using the stock kernel with root and CWM 5.0.2.7

Before I installed the theme I've done Wipe to Dalvik Cache; Reboot in to recovery; Installed the zip from SD Card; and installed the theme once again from the SD Card

The phone needs more time to start, but the theme is working well. I've done some reboots and shutdowns for testing and I haven´t any problem this time.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
This is what the standard ICS "USB storage in use" looks like: picture..

I must have messed up the files, GMusic is not the latest version. Sorry for this. It will still stay in the theme, and users have a choice to chose the one they want.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mrasquinho:
Works perfect for me. Thanks!!

---------- Post added at 03:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 AM ----------

Ok, I found 2 bugs:

When we install the theme, we are going to have 2 calculator and 2 music apps.

Because yours are on /system/app folder, but the originals are on a locked folder...

Other bug: After restart, widgets get the "error while loading widget"...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mrasquinho:
Ok, i read about the music and calculator app, my bad..

But the error loading widgets is very annoying...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
I bricked my phone so I'm uploading some things I did before it happened.

Toolbox.apk is the quick settings in statusbar. Move to /system/app and change permissions, then reboot. Looks like this:

The calculator.apk is the stock one, redesigned to be like 4.0. One bug is that the numbers are black and not white.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Sanningr:
Hello! 2 questions about this theme:

1. Lock screen works like the official (unlocking downwards opens camera etc...) but i cant see the icos. Can i change that?

2. Do i need to run the toolbox.apk or just put it in /system/apps with 644 permissions?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
1. That's the way I made it. Restore official if you do not want it.

2. No, just place it in /system/app, change permissions, then reboot ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fr0bs:
Thank you very good.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] j0a0:

So, are you planing to port this amazing theme to b528?

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
Looks like there isn't a working recovery for b528? Sorry my u8800 got bricked and I have a different phone now. As you can see earlier in this thread there were big problems installing this theme. Since I do not have the phone I would need a tester, and if he got the same problems (bootloop) he would have to install official again, root and get recovery just to try a new version. If he had to do that 10 times it would take long time.

Besides, I'm unsure on how many use the b528. If enough want, I could make one test version. In that case I need a system dump of b528
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mrasquinho:
I'm using now b528, I rooted it and my recovery is working...

I can make a nandroid backup with recovery, and test the theme... (please include the shortcuts on the status bar)

If it fails, just make the nandroid restore on recovery, no big deal :)

The recovery on my signature is working very well.

Please tell me, how can I make a system dump? Sorry for the "nobice" :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Locri:
I'm hoping someone can help me out. I'm buying a new phone this week, but unfortunately I'm locked in to phones that I can get via Telus. I really wanted the Samsung Galaxy S II X, but after browsing this forum a bit it looks like because it's on a different chipset it won't work with any of the ROMs for the default model. Is that right? Is there a development community for that specific phone out there?

The only real alternative that I see is the HTC Amaze, which at least seems to have a developer community (albeit small). It looks like a pretty comparable phone as well. Unless there is a phone I'm missing here (and no, I'm not willing to shell out the money for a Galaxy Nexus on Bell, as much as I'd love to have one).

Edit: My apologies, I finally found the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II forum, which is the same phone (or close enough that there are Telus ROMs there). Answered my own question, although I wish Samsung wouldn't be so bloody confusing with their model names.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deniska11:
Different phone, different internals and therefore different ROMs. Roms for SGS2 wont work for the S2X. I dont know about the SGS2X, but the one from Rogers is called the i727 Skyrocket, and i do know there is a dedicated section on XDA for that phone. I sold my SGS2 and got the i727 Skyrocket LTE, now im selling the Skyrocket to get my SGS2 back =) Despite the slower clock speed it feels faster than the i727. But then again that might be because my S2 was rooted and running a custom rom vs the fully stock i727. Like you said it has a different chipset, and i think that makes a difference.
