On my first phone, I had a few very minor scratches till I dropped in on concrete with no case and cracked the sides and screen. When I got it replaced, I instantly put a screen protector on it and have it in a case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Danial723:

So far so good! It'll be two months for me in four days! I already dropped it like 5 times no case or screen protector.. Got one minor scratch at the top of the screen which isn't even noticeable unless your staring hard and no scratches at all on the body :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
my glass is doing great. no screen protector and its in my pocket with keys and stuff all the time. my phone is protected tho using a ballistic case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
How does that protect the screen though from scratches? Especially with keys in there. Sooner or later it'll get scratched.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
lol damn thanks button. ya it will get scratched eventually. I just meant I do have a case on it incase I end up dropping it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
LOL protect that **** playa. Screen protectors are cheap. And thanks for the thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] globalninja:
I put a screen protector before I even activated it, and got a case immediately. I'm not taking any changes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] omargs7:
used it for about 2 months with no screen but i dropped a few times even tho the screen was fine the phone got hit on the edges so i got a case for it and got a deal on the screen protector too.

No scratches on my screen tho :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] choyt2011:
No screen protector...just case and belt clip i bought from Sprint. no scratches or blemishes on phone...good as butter...

Insanely Great... too soon?

I put a TC case on it and dropped the phone on carpet, fake tile flooring, concrete, asphalt and other types of flooring... all flat. The screen is not scratched at all but there are small scratches from impact through case.

I dislike screen protectors because the Super AMOLED Plus is a thing to be marveled without protection.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw0d:
I am uber careful with mine. I have screen protecters and several casses, thinking about getting a case-mate next.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] choyt2011:
Those people that do that believe the phone is only what they paid for it ($200 with 2 year contract) but in reality it retails for much more than that. Even if you have insurance your still going to be paying a deductable of $100 or more...plus you will get a refurbished unit instead of a new one. If you don't have insurance...well your out $549 or more to replace the phone you just broke.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] naripsta:
Holds up very nice.

No screen protector (never liked them), no case. I do have a slight scratch on it, but you have to look oh so very closely to notice it. Other than that, everything's clean. I even dropped it face first to the ground. Had it in my basketball shorts, was warming up to play basketball.

Took a shot at the basket, and the phone flopped out lol. Nice sound when it hit, but it held its ground fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Same here but 5 months
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Henri Blanche:
No obvious scratches here. Bought the phone during the second week of its release. Have tried screen protectors before but I so much prefer the touch and feel of the screen bare. I do use cases to protect the overall phone; am currently using a green Trident Aegis case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ja5oN:
I'm rockin' mine naked! No case... No screen protector... And still no scratches....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] datajosh:
I have some small scratches on mine because I can't find a screen protector I like. They're either too sticky or hard to keep clean or make the screen less sensitive.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
I have a TPU case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperSwagSauce:
Mine is perfect still. Only had it a week though. No SP.

Less than a week old and got scratches. Not as tough as my 3d which I dropped today with no case or screen protector.yay. I had already ordered two cases from Amazon so it wasn't like I was trying to be negligent lol.

I've seen this requested before but it didn't get anywhere.

I'd really love to get the stock ICS messaging app working with an enter/return key I tried out another keyboard with the enter feature but it was only to send.

Do you guys have a solution to get the stock app and keyboard to work with an enter/return key? Or even a keyboard which is identical to the stock one but with enter/return working?

Many thanks!

pda net tablet new version paired with fox fi on my bionic has allowed me to connect my prime to my bionic without a tethering plan or root. best of all they are both free :) :) :D;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Cappurnikus:
I have Bluetooth tethering working with just pdanet. What is fox fi? I searched the market and google and found nothing related to android by that name... do I fail at the web today?

Edit: I fail at the web. Foxfi.com takes you to their Android Market page. I guess my phone isn't supported however as I just get "Obtaining IP address..." and it never connects. I supposed I'll be sticking with Bluetooth tethering.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] AndroidFTW11:
I had trouble finding anything until I went to the website. It works wonderfully with the Bionic. Unfortunately only some phones are supported at this time. I couldn't use bluetooth with my bionic, but pdanet notified me that there was a new version of pdanet for tablet and it then took me to foxfi. I am surprised it hasn't been removed all together or at least hasn't made a bigger splash than it has

I just got this working on my Lenovo Ideapad K1 (tablet) and Samsung Fascinate (phone).

Currently there's no best ROM until you have test it by yourself. More important thing is read instructions carefully as you might brick your phone, as you can see in the Q&A lot of people complaining.

Happy flashing. :)
[HTC Sensation] flamechamp:
Basically ROM is just mods to meet your needs. Based on what you need, choose the ROMs.

For me personally, I recommend ARHD series. Because it has close to stock experience of Sense.

Virtuous is also good one for non-sense.
[HTC Sensation] alirsh:
I tried all the ICS roms and each offers something nice but my personal taste is closer to insertcoin, it's fast, updates regularly and very stable

[HTC Wildfire S] Blakeablez:
Hi guys, I don't know if any of you have answered to a similar query on here. but I need advice.

I have a wildfire on T-mobile for a little a year and slipped on ice and cracked my screen,

T-mobile refused to replace it as it wasn't a warranty repair and I didn't take out insurance (idiot).

so I found a local store to do the replacement screen for £60.

When i picked it up i realised that the volume buttons no longer worked, and the sd card wouldn't recognise, I tried other cards and it wouldn't work either. now my wildfire can't read sd's or control the volume.

I really want to root this little gem and get rid of all the bloatware and flash a new Rom.

questions;

Am I screwed for rooting as far as the volunee buttons? I know you h ave to use them when rooting Galaxys as I've done quite a few.

is there diagnostic software or driver's that can locate the actual faulty parts so I know what to order.

I am more than confident to repair it myself as I don't trust that shop any more.

thanks for reading my 1st post on XDA

[HTC Wildfire S] miguelca:
Hi Blakeablez,

First thing: you are in the Wildfire S forum. Not in the Wildfire forum which is an older model.

If I was you I would go to the store and complain about the problem they caused. You have a short repair warranty period in case you don't know.

About the volume button you will need it for entering recovery mode.

Don't know if such software for detecting fauly parts exists though...
[HTC Wildfire S] Blakeablez:
Thanks for the reply,

Taking it back to the store is not an option I have anymore I'm afraid as it was well over 9 months ago.

Sorry about posting in the wrong forum, I'm just getting used to the XDA app.

I've come to terms that I will better off getting a donor phone or two off Fleabay. thanks
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
You can use Rom manager from the market, if your phone is officially supported (which I would think it is). Load Rom manager and install recovery.

When it installs the recovery as long as its 5.0.2.8 then you can navigate the clockwork recovery menus with the capacitive buttons at the bottom of your screen.

From within Rom mananager select to boot into recovery.

Try it good luck.
[HTC Wildfire S] Blakeablez:
I would have thought that my wildfire would need to be rooted before rommanager could reboot into recovery?

Hey guys, I have an issue when Im trying to defrost apps I have frozen with Titanium Backup. I have frozen the voice command and voice search apps and wanted to defrost them. When I click on them a defrost it says they have been successfully defrosted yet they still stay highlighted in blue.

I have tried clearing the TB cache and my phones cache and dalvik cache but the problem still exists. I even tried freezing one of my downloaded apps and then defrosting it and it has the same problem. I have reinstalled TB but that didnt help. Any ideas?

i fail to see the point of this thread.

im one of thoes people who PAID for the nds4droid app when it was in the market. i even emailed the dev, and he promised good things were to come, but when?

after the first e mail response he NEVER got back to me and the app was taken off the market.

i doubt even doubling the clock speed on the cpu would make much of a difference with this app.

oh and in case your wondering i used the 4shared app to download version 1.3, which i have every right to since i already paid for the thing.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaihanH:
Hello Everyone, I plan on buying a used Xperia Play. I saw one online and met with the seller. The seller has mentioned that there is a sliding issue but he thinks its software related. Basically the issue is that when you slide the phone open in landscape mode the display wont automatically go on. You have to press the power button twice for it to show display. According to the seller this only happens when the phone is locked.

So what do you guys think ? Is the hardware faulty or is it a software fault ? The phone is on stock gingerbread and has not been rooted. If i do buy it i plan on rooting and installing a custom rom on it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CloudShepherd:
might be the hardware not sliding enough for the software to recognize that it's open right away.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsalansiddique:
Yeah I agree its probably a hardware issue
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
There is a magnetic relay switch sensor for the dock and there is probably one for the slider sensing mechanism too (never saw a physical switch when I took mine apart). It's likely that the triggering magnet came loose in one half and ended up someplace where it no longer passes the magnetic relay switch.

All I know for certain is that I find mine accidentally unlocked all the time when carrying my magnetic motorcycle tank bag, though it could be triggering the dock sensor's magnetic relay switch just as easily.

Hello,

I realized recently that the stock weather widget on my SGS2 does not auto-refresh sometimes although it is set to do so "Every 3 Hours". The widget update is not completely disabled, it auto-refreshes randomly, at 5 Hours, 6 Hours and sometimes it doesn't update for a whole day. :(

I removed all my cities and added them again, the updates worked for a day auto-refreshing exactly every 3 hours, the next day, the widget started updating randomly again and not every 3 hours. :mad:

My background and auto sync settings are on, I have a stable data connection and I have removed JuiceDefender and Advanced Task Killer, the problem still exists and it's driving me crazy because I actually like the stock weather widget.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lorekarf:
yes there is not a best rom (never ask about which is the best rom)

there are different roms

some uses some devices/cpu drivers/controllers/governors some not, some are lighter some are more heavy

some looks quite similar to stock and some others are completely different

some boost speed others boost battery usage

i think that for make a good choice 1st element is to see who made the rom: there are some devs who have been tweacking/writing roms for years on older devices and have a strong strong reputation

2nd element very important is to check the comments of the people who tried it on the threads: read 1st page of the post and then go to last page and read the 10/20 last replies

usually for noobs like you and me the best is to go for a well tested rom without 2 many problems

i wouldnt dare to install cyanogenmod 9 so far....

anyway if i were you i would try the rocket rom vers 20 and then upgrade to rocket rom 21

this rom has a long development and its quite reliable

being .21 version many bugs have been amended and the dev is very active and nice.

2 go for reliable rom as beginner is the most intelligent choice!
