Yes, similar to cell reception. One can also turn the phone 90°, lay it flat, etc if the signal is weak and see if there is improvement.

Does the case-mate for the nexus s crack after a month? What is the best case for the nexus s? I am looking for one similar to a impact soft shell case...Thanks
[Nexus S Accessories] kandroid:
I've had mine for about a month now, and its been holding up fine so far. But then again, I don't usually abuse my phone.
[Nexus S Accessories] rhagemeyer:
I've had mine since September and it's great, no issues.
[Nexus S Accessories] shahravi94:
i used to use a tpu case for mine but it kept triggering the bug report thing by pressing both volume keys and the power button whenever i woke up the phone. i stopped using it and realized i dont really need a case for it. ive dropped it a couple times and surprisingly nothing happened. the back does get scratched but im willing to live with that.
[Nexus S Accessories] druzil78:
I have a case mate as wel and happy with it!

I use mercury hard gel case. I like the fact that it doesn't cover the buttons and still provides good drop and scratch protection

I've used CaseMate POP case but i think it's a bad case. I don't like POP case. Now i'm using a Momax iCase & it's a great case.
[Nexus S Accessories] toonhead85:
I have been using the Case-Mate POP case for about 6 months. It has been great protection and even some added girth for my rather large hands. I have one or two cracks, but that is from me constantly taking the phone in and out of the case to un-brick or flash or something else that would require a battery pull. The other aesthetic note is the rubber around the edge (keeps the phone in the case as well as provides a bit of grip when placed on a table face down) is a bit worn. It doesn't look terrible but its there.

Overall the case is amazing, and people who say its bad had a bad experience with it and/or broke it themselves. Afterall, these are phones and not military grade Samsung Ruby Smarts here!!!

If you want a 100% shatterproof case, wait for the Otterbox case (that was announced last year). This is a great case and has both protection (plastic) and grip (rubber) and adds a bit to the phone w/o losing its sexiness.

I got my wife to be one in pink and she loves it. She has had it about the same amount of time and the only wear hers has is some scratches from her purse (she isn't into flashing roms).
[Nexus S Accessories] Mizter:
I have a case-mate pop. It's a very sturdy case. The only thing that I think people might have a problem with is that it adds a little bit of 'bulk' to the phone.
[Nexus S Accessories] vanburner:
I've been using the below Case-Mate Pop for almost a year now. It basically goes everywhere in a outside coat/jacket pocket or cargo pants pocket. Been in the sun, rain, cold and snow of TGWN and keeps on ticking :) The SNS itself still looks new.

The case is a good firm construction that feels good in your hand and handles a drop from chest height no problem. Only downside is with the tight fit of the case in the beginning. Once broken in, say about 8 mths down the road, the power button area stretches and the corners start to show some wear. This wear and tear so to speak is mostly from taking the case off. These areas get under turned when one puts the case on so you have to flip them up once the case is seated to get the fit

Overall it's a great case for the active outdoor person who doesn't want to worry about destroying their SNS phone/computer investment. Cost $25 CDN
[Nexus S Accessories] cplovero:
I highly recommend the Seidio Active X Case. I am very protective of my phone too and I feel very safe having this case.

It's very similar to the Otterbox Commuter Case series for several phones. The case doesn't cause much more bulkiness and has a very nice feel imo (to some it may be a little slick). The case covers both the volume and power button but leaves the headphone jack and usb port open for ease.

You can check out reviews on youtube.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DCSL:
I have a nook tablet 8gb, I can still boot cm7 from sd card so the thing isn't a total brick.

I started with http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1529553 and that worked great but i still didn't like the nook menus and stuff so i decided to try cm7. I put it on the only sd card I had at the time for a test, an 8gb type 2. It worked great except for a bit laggy. I bought a 32 gig type 10, a little quicker but still lagged a bit. Also the 32 gig wouldn't boot unless i was usb tethered.

So I decided to try to put cm7 internal. I tried about a dozen times to get cwm to boot off a sd card but it never seemed to go for it so i used http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1458630. But that doesn't seem to work on my nook I had the same problem as http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23636087

I tried the method they posted in their thread (writing the cyanoboot recovery_512.img to /dev/block/mmcblk0p3. This seemed to boot in to a working cwm. I tried to burn the cm7 internal to the ram, but once i did it would still always boot to the cyanboot (no menu) strait in to cwm so I couldn't actully use it. At this point I decided that the 16g has much better support and i should just trade it in on the 14 day thing so i tried to return it to stock. I tried to burn the modified zip from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23483625&postcount=4

after that i tried http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23384587&postcount=77 which also did not work, (it showed the box then turned off)

So my internal is probably all messed up by now, but I can still use the external sd boot if nothing else)

Any help would be appreciated.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lavero.burgos:
Use Adam's unbrick total wipe for 8GB Noot Tablet. You will need another sdcard if you don't want to lose the setup of your actual sdcard running CM7.. well you could create an image of your entire sdcard but you will need ubuntu, adb bla bla bla so better get another one.

~ Veronica
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DCSL:
I tried the unbrick image it didn't seem to work. It shows the box and then nothing.

I'll try it again.

Also kind of curious why one sd card would boot fine while the other one would require the power cable to boot.

Tried it again, same result. Boot up on the sd card. I see the box, then blank screen, wait 30 mins reboot without sd card and just get a black screen.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lavero.burgos:
Can you boot into CWM that is your last chance, i can give you the link for the 8GB partition images so you can flash them while in CWM but as i said you will need ubuntu installed in a virtual machine and adb.

Here is the link: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23016403&postcount=1

I don't know which partition of the 8GB NT model is "rom" so if someone could post the output of:

~# parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 print

Once we know that you have to copy the image to the root of your sdcard

the code to flash the partition image will be:

~$ cd ~/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools

~$ ./adb devices

(Make sure your device gets recognized)

~$ ./adb shell

~# dd if=/sdcard/mmcblk0pX of=/dev/block/mmcblk0pX

* Where X is the number of the rom partition

* The images that Celtic posted don't end with .img but hopefully works that is fixable.

~ Veronica
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DCSL:
partly solved with http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1562130

Made sd card from image and then put the nooktablet_1_4_2_update.zip from b&n as factory.zip into the recovery folder

boot from sd card, hold n then select alternate boot, wait a few minutes till green check mark appears

Still doesn't boot without sd card.

Booting from sd card to cyanoboot, and selecting boot from emmc boots to nook setup, but hangs when trying to enable wi-fi

also still doesn't boot with no sd card
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] starfyredragon:
If I read corrcectly, you didn't successfully put on cm7? Depending on whereit failed, your original factory reset may still be intact. If you havent tried already, With the system off and no sd,Press power and quickly (while holding power)also press the n button. This should bring you to the option for factory reset. When you get there, is that option there at all? Because if not, firmware is probably too corrupted to change from the device itself, and youll probably have to change via data connection from computer.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DCSL:
no go on the factory reset option.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basileus21:
Recently, out of sudden, something got wrong with my Android (on Xperia Arc). From time to time, when screen is blocked, something starts to turn on and off the screen. It keeps going like this forever (switching every few seconds, then staying on for few seconds and going blank again) until I unlock the screen. After I unlock the screen I cannot of course determine which process it might have been. On the other hand having screen switched half a day, drains the battery very quickly.

Therefore I am looking for an app, which can monitor and, what is most important, log in some file CPU load (not a total one but divided into processes). It doesn't have to be a task killer or battery optimizer. Just simple logger will do. Anyone knows such app?

Of course any other ideas how to deal with the problem will be much appreciated.

Go to the CF root thread in development, read the instructions thoroughly find your version of his rooting kernel and flash via odin (best option in my opinion) or you could try something like superoneclick which is easier but won't give you cwm. Sounds like you should have a general read up of things before you start though to avoid bricking your device.

Firstly, turn on yr wifi. Let it connect to yr SSID or wifi network. Long press over it. U can find it in yr wifi settings. After long pressing over the name of wifi or also known as SSID;

Go to: modify network config.

Click on: show advanced options.

Scroll down n change IP settings field from DHCP to STATIC.

Scroll down n go to DNS 1 n DNS 2 fields only.

Change it.

DNS1: 8.8.8.8

DNS2: 4.4.4.4

save it.

Note: Do not change any other fields.

If it didn't work, don't change DNS1 and change DNS2 to 8.8.8.8

and save it.

Additionally, u can change it directly from your router' s DHCP settings.

I hope it will definitely fix yr problem. Enjoy.
