Well, today I managed to drop my brand new (<24 hour) One S approx 1m onto a brick driveway. Here is the result:

It was in a case as well. (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1584765&page=3)

Unfortunately, the top edge is not protected in this type of case. In a gel case that covers the top edge as well, it would probably have survived unscathed.

So much for HTC's theory that this phone does not need a case! :mad:
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
Dude that is soooo unlucky :( At least its just a chip and not a broken screen...

Get some protection on that bad boy !!! I never take my phone out of my pocket unless i am stationary lol, I find the One S hard to grip without a case...
[HTC One S] Reviewers:
Holy ---- If that happened to my One S I would be flippin.

Would be awesome if they could make phones that can take that sort of abusement. I hate cases, they' re so ugly!
[HTC One S] plastikuss:
Could it be restored with some kind of paint? Of course it will not be perfect but could masquerade the scratches.
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
or just keep dropping it until the shell becomes grey :) then you have owned both devices :D
[HTC One S] ascot17:
Yes had already thought of that. Black permanent marker has improved the appearance considerably.
[HTC One S] SecherFault:
Yeah, i did the same with my Sensation XE... CD/DVD marker will do the trick for a couple of days at a time.. But it wears off, so you have to do it 2-3 times a week if you want it to stay hidden..
[HTC One S] plastikuss:
Ahahah, I thought exactly the same.

My son has just throwed to the wall (2 years old baby...), and I just finished to paint with a permanent marker, ehehe.

If i had the money i would buy one :)

People usually lend me the device to dev, Madteam has "only" 11 devices listed on development, all have cm7 and some have cm9

Currently i have a P1010 from the username beakman, almost done with cm7

I dont get payed to dev roms, so dont expect me to spend money on a device i dont have

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmprado:
First of all I want to thanks _n0p_ for the amazing rom.

I gave up on Ginger Streak because the instability of it, too many reboots, battery life, etc.

But my question now is, the instalation procedures on DSC says that the baseband must be 406.

I flashed the "flash_me" file but in my phone it shows GAUSB1A40514-US.

This is correct? The phone is working flawlessly so I need or not to flash the 406 baseband?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _n0p_:
It's ok. It will eventually change to 4062 (not 407), we still don't know why bb number leaves that ghost traces.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmprado:
Thanks for the answer _n0p_ .

Here comes another one, I tried to donate some bucks to you but the paypal said that the Ukraine accounts cannot receive money, this user is not qualified to receive money.

There's another way to send a couple of beers to you?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _n0p_:
I actually don't need donations.

Also, DSC ROM incorporates work of many people, so that'd be unfair.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BluB0HR:
I gonna hijack this thread quickly.. my aplogies.

I'm running DSC now for quite a while but I could never get AAC streams running. Why's that? No matter what app I use. It always stops and says unsupported or unknown media features. I know there had been an issue like that in an early Froyo build but why in GB? I'm going to get really frustrated soonish. :(
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _n0p_:
Are you sure it the ROM, not the platform?

Have you tested CM7?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BluB0HR:
I just got CM7.2 + DSC Kernel running.. AAC(+) works!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gluesniffmonkey:
Again thanks to _nop_.

I only have two issues. When I try to use the pattern lock it tends to stick. I often have to repeat three or four times. I found the same with CM7 and the Olleh Rom.

Also when typing the keys occassionally freeze.

Overall though the DSC rom seems the best for me.

Just find .ftf and flash it with falshtool, both are even in dev sections.

I already told you in another thread, read sticky threads, get to know with tools and after that go ahead with messing with your phone.

It's amazing how people don't know about flahstool, it's practically around every corner here.. :)

I kinda doubt that, as link is broken. It can be easily fixed, but as it is it doesn't work.

And please don't shout, you do it in most of your posts ;)

Yes, you'll be back to full stock.. Losing the root access though!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] baaj:
Just thought I'd share:

I was on location with a client, needed to markup a live document on my ThinkPad tablet and realized I forgot my stylus. Just for kicks, I pulled out my s-pen -- and it works perfectly -- even the 'right click' button.

I assume the reverse is true (lenovo stylus on the Note), but haven't tested yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] techntrek:
Interesting, I'll have to try Lenovo>Note tonight.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] baaj:
The generation may have some effect on compatibility. I'm using a model from a few years back - x200 tablet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] KosanRio:
I believe they use a similar digitizer that your typical Wacom-based Tablet PC uses.

So far the styluses from my ThinkPad X61T/X41T, HP TC1100, Fujitsu ST5112, Toshiba Tecra M7 all work on my Note and vice versa.

While the stylus from my Wacom Bamboo and Wacom Intuos4 do NOT work since they use a completely different digitizer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Brau0303:
If i recall the digitizers used in the Bamboo and similar are more like what what was used in the HTC Flyer (I had ome until the Backlight went out) The common waycom pens do not work on the Flyer and similar devices nor will their pens work with the Note.

cheers

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Sinful Animosity:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] KosanRio:
Nah the HTC Flyer uses an N-Trig digitizer, completely different company.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
I just tried it with my HP elitebook 2740p and it works great. it has a faux eraser on the end of it so I tried it out, guess what, it works as an eraser on the note.

You are quite correct, I knew it was somewhat different (pen even has a battery in it) Just could not quite remember the actuall hardware.

Does your outer touchscreen and inner LCD screen have damaged issue? Following this guide will help you take apart the Samsung Infuse i997 fairly easily in a step by step manner giving you a chance to replace faulty parts. Once you have replaced the parts you want, the guide can be used in reverse to put everything back together again.

This guide will help you to install the following Samsung Infuse i997 parts:

Samsung Infuse i997 LCD + Touch Screen Digitizer Replacement

And Other Samsung Infuse i997 Parts

Tools Required:

Safe Open Pry Tool

Small Phillips Screwdriver

Adhesive Strips

Heat Gun / Hair Dryer

Samsung Infuse i997 take apart/repair guide:

To get in started, make sure that the device is off and remove the back battery cover. Also remove the battery, the memory card, and the sim card.

Now, we have six (6) small Phillips screws to remove as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1​

With the screws released, turn the phone over and use a safe open pry tool between the screen assembly and back housing.

Use a safe open pry tool as shown on Figure 2 to release the clips and remove the back housing.

Figure 2​

We have two (2) small Phillips screws that need to be removed - located in orange in Figure 3. Use a safe open pry tool to release the four (4) pop connectors (red) on the motherboard.

Figure 3​

You can now ease off the motherboard carefully, being sure not to rip any cables.

Now, use a heat gun or hair dryer to warm the adhesive holding the screen assembly to the front housing. Use medium heat on the front of the screen, consistently moving around the screen edges. This should take no longer than 1 minute.

Use a safe open pry tool to release the screen assembly from the housing. Reheat if the adhesive is still strong.

Remove the screen from the housing and replace.

Reverse the instructions above to reassemble your phone.

Thanks for the great info, Paul.

A question:

My Infuse has cracked glass, but LCD display working fine (just annoying to see lines from cracks in front of the display).

I see there is Infuse replacement glass sold for low price ($10-$15) but replacement LCD+glass together is much more ($150 IIRC).

Do you know if the glass can be replaced without replacing the LCD (re-use the old LCD unit)?

Or are they glued together as one unit which would prevent placing glass without replacing LCD unit?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
From what I have read, replacing the glass only is neigh impossible with high risk of damaging the lcd digitizer.

There may be some older threads in the q/a. Dani897 has some experiences. Maybe pm him. I've seen old infuse for 125-145 on cl. Why buy a digitizer for more?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
i had a bad experience with a vendor and the part i got was no good, vendor wanted the part shipped back before they would send another. photos of the faulty screen apparently wasn't enough, ugh, not to mention the months it took to ship from china so i got another phone. there have also been some complaints about insurance screen repairs being faulty but it's hard to say if that's the norm. i have a suspicion that all the available screens are from chinese vendors and may have quality issues but i guess that's just an opinion

the glass will likely break on removal of the old screen, be liberal with the heat gun, but frankly it's easier to get a new phone, for $180 you can find another infuse and probably an i777 if you look hard enough and if you are an infuse owner you are may be getting near upgrade time in a few months so could a lesser replacement phone hold you off till then?.

i also think samsung will replace your screen cheaper than you can buy one if you care to mail it in.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] amith12:
It is possible to replace just the touchscreen digitizer for this model?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] repairsuniverse:
I highly suggest using a full screen assembly as it would make your repair so much easier and reduce the risk of damaging your lcd during the separation process.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rkkaranrk:
If the full screen assembly is used then what elk one do with the broken one so the risk is over damaging the LCD I would say if u can then replace the glass only which is almost an impossible job for an individual if you don't have the equipments for.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] repairsuniverse:
You're absolutely right if you don't have the correct equiptment or know-how, We don't suggest attempting it as you'll just end up spending more money on the full screen assembly anyways.
