[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] charlescom:
After getting many GNex as New and/or factory refurbished replacements, I have concluded that the best fix at the moment is getting a device swapped until you get one that is without this problem. Be persistent though, as many replacements have screen issues (severe banding, pink / purple / severely grained / washed out), with many of them having microphone cut off issue in varying degree. And the 5 days they give you to return the box with your current GNex or poor refurbished one is very short indeed. So, you might actually find out your device that you turned back to them was actually slightly better after several weeks...lol

But I do have a suggestion for all those don't want to go through the "Refurbished Swap Phone" just yet and would rather keep your new phone until the update would solve this issue. Of course, 5 months has already gone by since many of us bought this issue..

Possible remedy for some devices that I found:

Settings > More... > Mobile networks > System select > Home Only.

If this doesn't do any good, and you still love your device's screen or whatever,

just use this phone as a CDMA only with LTE turned off from Mobile networks menu.

Let me know how the "possible remedy" work for you guys :)

I think you have been unlucky. My phone is always in its otter box case screen in toward my leg when in my pocket.

The phone actually has a steel frame as well. No where had it ever been sold as bullet proof though.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CircuitsToPlowshares:
Unlucky.. probably. But I did want to serve a word of warning. And up until this happened there was nothing wrong, so saying I have had this 3 months and nothing bad has happened to me isn't proof it won't happen. Because until that moment we were in the same boat, and I hope that we won't be in the same boat now for your sake.

None the less, there is nothing I can do now anyway so I am done being bitter.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JDCFH:
Mine is insured against accidental damage of any kind. Even getting it wet.

So even if I did end up in your boat it wouldn't matter :p
[Motorola Droid RAZR] blueis300:
Sorry to here about your bad luck. Guess that's why I paid full retail for my Razr Maxx so I had insurance no matter what. I've been through alot of phones and never had any problems as you mention. Well atleast not the screen if anything it was basic stuff. Man I remember way back in the day I had one of those Motorola beige brick phones. I drop it , threw to against a wall and it never failed. Just goes to show how things have changed and build quality can always be in question.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jiwengang:
So sorry to hear this..

still a big confused on how this can happen. the phone feels very solid.

:mad:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CircuitsToPlowshares:
It sort of feels solid. If you take it and hold the bottom in your left hand and the top in your right hand and turn both hands opposite directions you will notice it flexes quite a bit and without much force at all. Or at least mine does right now at the moment I can get several millimeters of flex which would be enough for the more fragile screen to give way. (Caveat probably not a good idea to try what I am saying as if it yeilds it won't be good).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ddemlong:
A screen protector and or some meat on them bones would have prevented this... :D

No but seriously that sucks. It could just be a fluke phone. I keep my phone in my otterbox commuter case so I am sure that helps a bit.

Its been dropped (nothing serious, few inches) and banged. jJust "normal" wear and tear. I do use screen protectors too. I know the phone is thin but I have never had an issue with the flexing like you describe. So far this phone is turning out to be tough.

I wonder if you can describe the situation to VZW and get a new one unde a manufacturer defect. If not, just get a replacement thought insurance.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jiwengang:
With full due respect....in terms of protecting from crack of a gorilla screen,what a screen protector does is not more than sticking broken glasses together after the tragedy :o

From my RAZR MAXX
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CircuitsToPlowshares:
That's the thing, the gorilla glass is fully intact and still smooth as a baby's butt. It was the internal screen that cracked. Also vzw did nothing but accuse me of dropping it, they had no incentive to help me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ddemlong:
Oh I know, short of an extra layer of glass or some sort of hard clear resin screen its not gonna help one bit.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] flashman2002:
The Maxx is much better, but I know you bought this before it came out. Did you go into the retail store and they told you you dropped it? Or was it customer service over the phone? If you have proof that these is not a scratch on the phone, how can you be told it was dropped? I would push the matter further, all the way up to corporate if I had to. But the real problem lies with not having that protection plan. That is the real bummer.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CircuitsToPlowshares:
In store and they all but called me a liar outright. It was frustrating, the only funny part was that I had two alarms set for the morning but the touch screen didn't work, though it would intermittently think you pressed the buttons for snooze, so the alarms were going off psuedo randomly for minutes at a time. The whole time the alarms were going off creating annoyance for them and customers.

The bad part was I was 3 hours from home on an anniversary with the GF and travel a bunch so I had to have a phone right then. I had no option but buy a new one. Lesson learned I have insurance and I have a feeling I will lose it more often now.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] blueis300:
Go to a different store. I drive 20 miles because I hate the local. I went to the different store and they yeah thats why I left there or is so and so still there. Local store sucked but the other is great and always helps. Sad I have to drive but usually try and do something else I need to get done while out there. Customer service has been hit or miss. Usually you dont get follow through. Verizon tried to get a hold of me for 3 days and left a message telling me that created a trouble ticket to make sure I was happy. Never had them call like that before.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] torikorocks:
You might have had a defected phone. The RAZR is very solid I've dropped It a few times and punched it more than once. I dont use a case either. Screen is fine no scratches on it either though there's scratches and chips on the phone. I'm pretty hard on my phone but that's why i pay for insurance that covers everything that I got from best buy. I hate Verizon's insurance.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] drolgnir:
Same here, i am a carpenter and mine is abused and buried in saw dust all day. Dropped many times, and rides in my bibs front pocket where it gets pushed on and crushed by body weight. Hrmmm, watch it will break tomorrow, shoot..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jiwengang:
Right they don't want to help in such cases, despite claiming the opposite

From my RAZR MAXX
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Touch-ee:
Yup me too. Full coverage of accidental damage. This day in age I can't imagine not paying the extra $8 a month for this for ANY phone. They are too expensive and when we have them with us 100% of the time in our daily lives there is too much opportunity for damage. Regardless of what phone model.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] POQbum:
The problem is the backing. It's very flexible.. you really can fix this by getting a hard case.

I have full coverage so I don't mind if it breaks. My SD card has everything important and I backed it up a few days ago so I'm all set :rolleyes:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Nikorasu:
You should try going to Motorola instead, post this in their forums to see what they can do.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wwwwww22:
screen is glued to gorilla glass and this is very difficult to break only screen, proobly faulty screen, fight with verion go to consumer help or something, don't let them f*** you
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CircuitsToPlowshares:
Thanks guys. I am currently trying to go through motorola, no promises yet, but they will have their repair team look at it and determine whether they consider it to be caused by "not normal wear". I hadn't even considered that they would do that because of the reaction and info from vzw.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] blueis300:
Good luck as that is great information. Alot have not had the experience you have and it is really a great phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] teegunn:
Iv'e had two cracked screens on my razr's so far. Not from abuse. Love the phone,but the GG is thinner on this phone than my DX and DX2. Also, there is more flex to the overall phone. I am more careful with it, I have a silicon case and screen protector, but bottom line the GG on this phone is much more prone to breaking than other phones I have owned. Verizon took care of me on the first one, wouldn't on the second so I had to use my asurion insurance, of which you can only do 2 times a year. So I'm down to one chance left if this happens again.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] POQbum:
the gorilla glass is still a bit flexible, and from the results of many people getting cracked screens but perfect glass, looks like the screen is less flexible than the glass.

Just glad I have a warranty handy in case this happens
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wwwwww22:
on my Nokia N8 my girl sat many times (on my lap) and phone works perfect

and this is sometimes like 20-30kg on phone alone

but with RAZR it's no go, I am very careful now

I guess it's price you have to pay for great phone and big screen
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vash_h:
Funny why Verizon won't honor the warranty.. I would attire with them, in order for the screen to spoil to that extend, there would be scratches.. But since there are none, it is ridiculous..

Sent from my XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] torikorocks:
Definitely fight with Verizon and I'm sure you've already been to a verizon store but you could try a different Verizon store. When i had my blackberry the main Verizon store in my are would do anything for me but i tried a smaller Verizon retail store and they got me a replacement.
[Xperia Play General] AwaisKhan:
Anyway i was wondering if anyone had broken an Xperia Play or done any Drop Tests, i couldnt find any.... but while i was searching i came across a video of A Professional Microwaver, Microwaving it.

[Xperia Play General] AwaisKhan:
Trololololololol & im from the UK, I dont understand by what you said by 'verizon user'....
[Xperia Play General] Shaun27:
verizon is a phone company in america I think and from comments on here they are useless and fill there updates to the brim with bloatware before they push them out ,don't quot me on that as I'm in the U.K to
[Xperia Play General] shakalek:
I would never do it to Play. Yes, i would be first to test the iPhone tho :)
[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:
Pretty much correct;

Verizon Wireless is a subsidiary company of Verizon Communications. They are one of the largest wireless/cellphone providers in the USA. They operate using CDMA2000 and LTE instead of GSM. Good call quality, great coverage, pretty good speeds. At 2G/3G you can't get voice and data at the same time (unless you have WiFi connected also), but that is a tech limitation.

The big problem with Verizon is as stated; They are lazy and shiftless, and don't push out updates until months after a provider has given them the ROM updates, and often never push them out. When they do, they send them back with requirements to bake in their bloatware apps and invasionary software before they will approved it and send it out. This is part of the reason for the Xperia Play R800x (the CDMA Verizon version), we are still on 2.3.3 and we can't even buy the PS1 games on the Android/Google-Play Market since those all require 2.3.4. We likely will _NEVER_ see an official update to ICS on the R800x. Further, bootloader unlocking on our CDMA units could be achieved the same way as GSM, but Verizon is cockblocking it through the company. So you have to use a hardware test unit to generate the codes, which cost about US$15+ in credits to do for each phone.

Sooooo, yeah. US CDMA Play owners are very likely on Verizon, and very likely annoyed in general with their provider.
[Xperia Play General] BrownEye02:
Don't forget they removed several apps. I wouldn't doubt this is why were still stuck on 2.3.3. Verizons bussy messing up the next update before they can release it.
[Xperia Play General] moonboy42:
you are correct on all counts sir. verizon sucks... unfortunately i did not realize this until AFTER i signed a 2 year contract with them :(
[Xperia Play General] swebosdev:
Can you hear me now?
[Xperia Play General] AwaisKhan:
Trololololol
[Xperia Play General] Thewonderboy:

It hurts me to watch
[Xperia Play General] AwaisKhan:
LOL, its ok
[Xperia Play General] d_zen:
poor play :(
[Xperia Play General] netizenmt:
My favorite comment was "if you destroy such modern devices where other humans cry for something to﻿ eat every day...you´re a really stupid pothead! No brain,No Game for you!"
[Xperia Play General] LegionTHEFecalExcretion:
^^^This^^^

I kept hoping someone would intervene and save the poor Play, it did nothing to deserve such a fate. :(
[Xperia Play General] WebNavigator77:
Totally agree.

Unfortunately the world is full of idiots... And of people who open threads to give him attention.
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
He wasn't donating money anytime soon anyways.. Him buying the play in the first place stimulated the economy and helped a lot of people... Think of it that way lol
[Xperia Play General] AtomicKoala:
Blowing up an old factory and building a new one will provide temporary economic benefit at long term cost, and only a very slight increase in production. Building a new factory adjacent will provide economic benefit during building, and double production, creating long term economic gain.

Basic economic sense (Then again, people think Reagonomic works, heh)

Basically. send your phone off to be recycled or give it to someone without a phone, dont destroy it!
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
Factory is quite different then a phone. The factory itself provides jobs and produces products.

If he sends his phone off for recycle or gives it to someone else, the new person will not need to spend any or as much money to buy his own phone. Giving away stuff for free hurts the economy more than it helps ;)
[Xperia Play General] Selim873:
That must be how the ghetto unlocks their boot loaders. amirite?
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
if you mean "the economy" as the sum of welfare- and profit-maximizing agents in an economic system where sustained growth is an imperative due to the overproduction and infraconsumption generated by a supply-push distribution model which forces companies to be big enough to control their environment and attempt to manage demand through marketing and government expenses, then I agree with you.
[Xperia Play General] AwaisKhan:
Totally bro
[Xperia Play General] jacklebott:
That's quite a vocabulary there
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
And this is how our world runs.

1)XXKB3

2)XXKF1

3)UCKJ1

Be carefull with using these! Check out the thread for more Info!

1) I just installed your Tiramisu ROM, what do you recommend for proper use / a better ROM?

This totally depends on your own taste!

-You can overclock the CPU

-You can change the CPU Governer (Personally I have SmartassV2)

-You can disable the Bootanmation for a faster boot

-You can use the Apps & Tools like NStools & MiLocker to fully customize your rom to your desire's!

Watchout with overclocking your CPU, some kernels can be really unstable when it comes to Overclocking! Only do this when you really know what you are doing!

2) How do I increase my Wifi Signal (Because it is a very low signal/no signal at all)

-Try the ZSJPG Modem, it is supposed to have great signal strenght for Data|Wifi|Calls|SMS

3) I do not have the FM Radio, how do I get one?

Use the app "Spirit FM". Go to settings -> Regional band -> Select your country & Enjoy the music!

P.S. It seems that in 1% of all cases the use of this app disables the phone's speaker.

4) I have photos, music and/or contacts duplicated or even tripled, how do I fix this?

Clear the cache & Dalvik Cache, also reboot for a media storage scan.

5) What are the inverted GApps flashable with Tiramisu?

They are the main Google Apps with the colors inverted (Changed into Black & Blue). This is usefull because it saves battery, aswell beautiful! Thanks to RootzWiki!

6) Can I help with the develpoment of Tiramisu?

You can! Thanks to Stoux it is possible to port the AROMA Installer to your language. Check here for info.

Thanks Stoux for its changes to the thread
