[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] martin_s5670:
I have found out the solution for installing some apps (which are special "location-near"-apps, in germany and europe), for example, oeffi-7.0.apk, dbnavigator_208.apk). Because I haven`t and don't want to install gapps / maps.apk, and e.g. Tj's CM-RC1 has no gapps like maps etc., therefore are

- missing a shared library in /system/framework and

- missing a permission in /system/etc/permissions.

It is not possible to install the above mentioned apps.

I have had to copy two files

- com.google.android.maps.xml > /system/etc/permissions

- com.google.android.maps.jar > /system/framework

to set them rw-r--r--, to reboot and now I could install and run e.g. dbnavigator_208.apk.

For the two files, when e.g. maps is not installed: you have to use your search-machine and look for gapps (e.g. duckduckgo!) or download gapps here and extract:

****ting bricks while watching it :O
[HTC One X] jlegrange:
Well ill make sure not to drop mine!!! but I've got it in the official case with the flap so hopefully that will save the screen!
[HTC One X] kolyan:
Two words.....BUY CASE !
[HTC One X] vallandil:
WOW what a fun to do., When it`s not u`r own phone....

Hope mine will never fly
[HTC One X] KamikaZeeFu:
4 words, don't drop your phone :P
[HTC One X] gdelrosario:
Hmm... Anyone knows when otterbox or trident will be releasing their cases ? Lol
[HTC One X] kolyan:
you can use bubble wrap for now

This hurts.. I thought The Gorilla Glass 2 would make it nearly unbreakable :( ...

(when I remember my HTC Desire stoping a knif or falling down all the stairs and still running like a charm :D )
[HTC One X] pepper89:
Its funny how people get jealous of what i get paid to do.

PS. this phone was purchased outright for our own personal use. This was not a review unit nor was it given to us. if you had any common sense you might realize that companies will not give you a phone just for you to smash it into pieces.
[HTC One X] molecule_cc:
Ouch!:eek:
[HTC One X] vallandil:
Personal use.....droptest .....common sense..

Really should i answer.

Review units....thats a unit a big company GIVES a reviewer to test.

There has been several
[HTC One X] Reckless187:
Why did I watch this!!! I've dropped every phone I've ever owned and I know what I've got in store now :(
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
Screen protector - don't be ignorant to think gorilla glass is unbreakable - YouTube will show you many breaks.

Gorilla glass is awesome, but not unbreakable.

Don't be a fool, protect your tool. :)
[HTC One X] kingdeacon:
Does a screen protector stop it from smashing face down then, I dont see how it could?

A case yeah, but not a stick on thing surely?
[HTC One X] M3PH:
I do reviews for a site and we have a very close relationship with both Samsung and HTC and the word they always use is never "GIVE" it is always "LOAN" and with that they always make use promise that the device will be returned in perfect working order. If it is damaged in anyway the reviewer has to pay for it.
[HTC One X] sumeshd:
galaxy s2 also has gorilla glass and it really IS UNBREAKABLE(nw I think i should'nt had sold mine :()

[HTC One X] stezo2k:
I really wish the one x was built like my desire HD, dropped that so many times and its been perfectly pristine without a case

Would a case protect the screen though?

I'm so scared of breaking the screen now :/
[HTC One X] gdelrosario:
sigh.... I want my trident aegis now :( (emailed trident and release is end of this month or early next month for both the aegis and kraken)
[HTC One X] Brac20:
People just need to be less clumsy ;-)

Ive had a smart phone for 3 years. Never dropped it.
[HTC One X] jupppo:
Galaxy S2 is far from unbreakable. I dropped mine and it hit the ground right on the lower corner. Glass had a nice fracture on gorilla glass over the whole screen.
[HTC One X] sebsal:
Having already dropped my One X and shattered the screen i'd advise everyone to get screen protection.

Mine is currently with HTC for repair. I've not had a quote yet on how much it'll cost but i'll post here when i get it

[HTC One X] hamdir:
desire HD

the only phone that survived everything! even flying high in the air flying flipping and hitting concrete, nothing, not even a scratsh on the screen

so now we are back to screen protection days? sigh

this is imply because the screen is extruded out! style over durability
[HTC One X] BenPope:
My DHD screen got shattered recently, waist height drop to a tiled floor. If it lands badly, smash.
[HTC One X] nebsif:
Uber style but no durability forces u to use one of those monster ugly cases which kills the whole point of style. :eek:

My pretty stylish, white Desire survived 2 years with multple drops and no case, with me smashing it on tables 4 funs sake, that's the perfect balance between the 2 imo.

So glad I didnt buy HOX in the end! Waiting for may 3 to see what sammy has to offer.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
lol sammy will never give you better durability

get the silver One S if you must
[HTC One X] nebsif:
oh I would if not the qHD display I swear.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
like BenPope said i guess depends how it lands! i still love every bit of my One X, the back side survived pretty well in the video
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
It absolutely would, a film-protector will not only protect the screen from scratches, but it strengthens it.

I've seen countless videos to prove how good these are, they are super sticky & strong, they bond the glass, meaning any sudden knocks will not create a shatter which is exactly what's happening in this video, the screen protector holds the glass together.

These shatters are not caused by strength, gorilla glass has proven its strength, but rather being caught on a bad angle whilst the impact vibration shoots through the screen, causing the shatter.
[HTC One X] Wtrt:
well I certainly was in pain while watching that video :D mine is grey too.

But yeah, what can you expect. When you drop a piece of glass sometimes it is going to break. thats just the way it is.
[HTC One X] schriss:
I will never ruin my experience by using a case or screen protector.

(I have seen iPhone 3G today in a bus, he had a screen protector still on it with lots of big air bubles and pieces of dust under it. Disgusting.)
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
Get a film screen protector, no bubbles & no dust as its a wet application.
[HTC One X] dragonithe:
Ouch!

I might just get a screen protector.

My desire has survived countless of drops from my desk (the cord to the charger is between the door and the desk) and rainstorms.

But this makes me feel a little uncomfortable.

Also I'm interested how the camera lens hold up during those falls onto the back side.
[HTC One X] shaw23:
cant believe this, I just knocked my handset off of the fire place, phone fell 2 feet the edge of the screen hit the corner of the fireplace and cracked right across the screen.... GUTTED. this happened to easily for my liking, my hd2 has been dropped countless times and not a scratch!! luckily i have insurance but my phone had NO problems and knowing my luck ill be given a new one with ALL the problems :( DEVASTATED at this :(:(:(:(
[HTC One X] jo3yp:
I've owned 4 HTC phones: Diammond, Desire, Desire HD and now the HTC One X. I've never had any issues with a damaged screen and I'll be honest, I dropped my old phones a fair few times. There aren't even any cases or screen protectors available in Singapore currently and I'm waiting for the HTC c700 case and official screen protector so have been treating the One X extremely carefully. I've had it less than 2 weeks and not mistreating it in anyway but the screen has cracked already, not only that but a dead zone appeared 3/4 of the way up the screen. This happened on a night out, the phone never left my pocket and it was only in the morning I noticed the crack, I'm guessing I must have nocked into someone/something but it can't have been hard as I would have noticed and the rest of the phone is spotless. HTC called me yesterday and quoted $303 SGD for repair.

Having read through this thread and seeing that others have already got cracked screens, I'm really worried about how fragile these devices are. Before anyone says I'm obviously mistreating it, I have owned smart phones for many years and never broken a screen, yet the One X breaks after less than 2 weeks, to me that is far too much of a coincidence. I'm gutted to be honest, as I think it's a great phone.
[HTC One X] brent8577:
is HTC lying about gorilla glass or did gorilla glass save a bunch of money and make the new product worse than the first one?
[HTC One X] combat goofwing:
I agree a pouch and a lot of being carefull with it is good enough for me

Sent from the Beast that is the HTC One X in white...... :-)
[HTC One X] kolyan:
I am pretty sure Gorilla Glass is just marketing BS

I had 3 phones with Gorilla and 2 got scratched with 1st fall. And even more surprising, my phones that didnt have Gorilla Glass never got scratched or ever broke from a fall.
[HTC One X] vioalas:
EDIT:Comment deleted
[HTC One X] x3phyr:
I'm fairly certain that the glass breaking on the fully face down fall is simply because of the way the screen is shaped. I wasn't surprised that it broke.

Putting a screen protector on it is sort of the equivalent of putting masking tape on your windows during a tornado. It gives it that extra bit of tension and resistance that it can actually keep it from breaking. I may get insurance... just in case though.
[HTC One X] flame10:
My one X fell yesterday on the road camera side facing down from a 4 foot height accidentally. No scratches or damage.

Will be careful next time.
[HTC One X] Hameno:
Okay, just a quick question: Why do more and more smartphones use gorilla glass instead of the plastic(?) screen used in older devices , e.g. the htc desire. I dropped my desire countless times and never ever had any display problems. it's only logical that plastic has a better resistence against the forces happening during impact than any glass could ever have...
[HTC One X] hello00:
my phone survived from 20ft high!!..it landed in the grass..
[HTC One X] foresttree1:
gorrila glass is stronger than plastic as it is chemically tempered. More explanation here

http://gizmodo.com/5726124/what-is-gorilla-glass
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
Taping your windows does nothing to stop them breaking; the goal is only to make it less likely the cracked window falls to pieces and blows into the room.

Adding a screen protector will likewise have zero effect on whether your screen shatters when struck. All it will do is reduce the likelihood of minor scratches reaching the glass.
[HTC One X] tbong777:
Exactly.....I stopped using cases and screen protectors a long time ago.....Best protection is not being careless. These devices are beautiful in their native forms and operate the best in that regard. Esespecially with accessories like cradles.
[HTC One X] Demented-Idiot:
I recall a time when my old Nexus one (Basically the same as a desire except half back cover rather than full) "accidentally" got thrown into the air as i tried to stop myself dropping it and it rolled down my concrete drive for a few feet after landing :o

Only some chunks out of the casing. Screen was absolutely fine!
[HTC One X] Eggcake:
Well, then you were lucky. My Desire fell from around 3 feet and the glass shattered.
[HTC One X] vincepg13:
Peoples experience vary. Some people may drop a phone millions of times and it just scratches and some people with that same phone on the first drop....smash.

Tbf I don't think we will ever see the day of a stylish, thin, capacitive touch screen phone with an unbreakable glass screen
[HTC One X] robertaccess:
well from desire, desire hd evo 3d sensation xl and now one x, I never have a scratch until one x :mad::mad:

the one x really use gorilla glass??? I have my keys in one hand and moved the phone in that hand carefully to open one door, and now I have a little scratch.

If this phone have 1.5 Ghz quad core and 1 gb of ram, only improvment from htc will be a beter battery, because I will not buy another phone if the screen is scratch resistant, unless a better battery will popup.:cool:

So this is HTC strategy to buy the next phone (because of scratch or screen broken)???
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
Gorilla Glass is not and never has been scratch proof.

As a side note, One X's go under water and come out working ish.

Dropped mine in water yesterday (not on purpose!) and despite a few hours of boot looping/instant batter drain its all good. No signs of water damage.

Slim
[HTC One X] robertaccess:
mabe not but if the screen is resistance on falling down cannot be scratch resistant?

what about xperia active? what screen do they use?

[HTC One X] westwood749:
The HTC Desire DID use Gorilla Glass
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
Nobody has a screen material better than Gorilla Glass 2.0, AFAIK. We already have the best that's available, but it is only more difficult to scratch or break than regular glass and plastic, it is not impossible to scratch or break.

If you scrape it with something softer than the screen itself is, like a metal key, there will be no damage. If you scrape it with something harder (and the most likely candidate is sand or grit on a desk or inside a case / bag), it *will* scratch, and so will every other phone on the market.
[HTC One X] vickytom:
You're very lucky. My son did the same and it came out deader than a dead thing!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CAJBarnes:
As the title states I'm having difficulties sending texts.

I received my replacement Nexus and activated it this morning using the same micro sim from the previous nexus. I also have the same stock 4.0.4 rom running on it but I'm having issues with texts not sending consistently. Once I receive a notification that it did not send I immediately attempt to resend the message. I can usually get it to go through by the 3rd attempt. I spoke with verizon and was told that there are a few tickets in my area for work on the voice network and once those are resolved it may fix my problem. Im just worried that I may have received a phone with a faulty radio. I haven't heard of this being a problem but I was curious if anyone else has had this problem with their nexus?
[HTC One X] Fatelord:
The device been running fine for couple of days, then It lost the ability to receive calls, whoever calls gets (( this mobile number is out of service )) .. yet I can call any number just fine ..!!!!!

Any solutions to this damning issue ?!

is it hardware ?!

Do I ask for replacement ?!
[HTC One X] tandfeen:
Are you sure its the phone? Sounds more like its your carrier screwing things up
[HTC One X] Fatelord:
it was indeed my carrier that screwed up things not the phone thanx ..
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snarebum:
Glass was broken on touchpad and decided to fix.( I havent turned on and messed with the TP in a month or so.) anyway I go reconnect my LCD and the only thing that comes on is the backlight. I know the TP is booted, by the fact you can hear the volume button sound.

Im at a lost besides replacing the LCD. there's also a flex cable and I wonder if that could be it.

Thanks
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris8599:
maybe the screen cable is loose and not tight enough. but the big question is how do you turn off your touchpad now and tighten the cable(if the touchpad is not turn off, you could kill the touchpad by unplug anything except the battery connector). do a google search of ifixit hp touchpad and check if you plug everything back right.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snarebum:
To fix the digitizer, I only had to remove the digitizer ribbon cable and the LCD glex cable. Everything is secured down tight too.

Hey :D

I am using my Motorola defy with Android 2.2.

But now i want to install a smooth and fast custom rom, because my defy is getting slow and particularly boring.

Which rom would you recommend ?

I think you developed Android 2.3 or even 4.0. :p

I am searching for something which works in all, so i mean ,, no bugs''! :rolleyes:

So give me a prposal :D
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarcinRN:
Hi! I've been using CM7.2 RC1 since the release and I found no problems with it at all. It's smooth, battery life is great, performance also. I wouldn't recommend you CM9 builds for daily use since they are still buggy. Either CM7.1 or CM7.2 RC1 is good option.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labsin:
+1 on CM7.2RC1 for best performance/options/less bugs

Also take a look at MIUI roms if you like the style...
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcoolnik:
I believe MS2Ginger from Walter is best rom till date. It has gingerbread and works for Green lense defy too. :)

What else you want?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppero196:
I use CM9 nightly. No problems at all. Search for Epsylon's build ( froyo kernel). Battery life excelent, phone is superfast!
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burton.hawk:
Using CM9 Nightly as well and have only small bugs/issues (e.g. video rec doesn't work yet and I get a bad preview on highest zoom stage with camera).

No Problems with CM7 at all.

Can i modify the background image of a Recovery??
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] iok1:
Possibly if you make the recovery yourself, but no recoveries have option for background image.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] :
Look at this: http://www.mytrendingtopics.info/wp...cache/689ed_clockworkmod_recovery_nexus_s.jpg

Here's the screenshot of CWM, with a background image...
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] iok1:
Yes, it's the default background image. But there is no option for changing in cwm, the only thing i can imagine you can do to get custom image is to manually insert it somewhere in the .zip, but i don't recommend you doing that!
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] :
I was asking for it, to insert it in the zip... why dont you recommend it??
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] iok1:
Because i don't know how and you probably don't do either.... just leave it as it is for now......

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] CoreWolf:
You have special tools for that, but if u post a png i will pack it in a recovery of ur choice(px or cwm or RZ)

Currently iam porting TWRP to ur gio :D (still needs some work), TWRP allows to change ur bg simple!

[HTC One X] myself11:
I'm no professional photographer or reviewr, I just asked a friend his D-SLR Olympus. Don't take this photos as an absolute truth.

Galaxy Note is on ICS Stunner 5.0 (screen mode standard + UI). HD2 on tytung CM9 v1.5. One X on latest stock OTA 1.28...

I find One X yellower on photos than in "real life", though I recognize that, at least, my unit has a yellowish tone. I find GNote (and Amoled screens) more stressfull to the eyes than other two, it's too vibrant, though it isn't noticeable on photos. GNote has some issues with blacks (blocks on images and movies).

First pictures are also useful those keen to e-reading, since they compare text displayed by Nook Touch, Samsung Galaxy Note, HTC One X and HTC HD2.

mine also is yellowish tint rather than my old sensation.. got my friends envious with the HOX.. they got SGS2 and note.. the screen of HOX blow them away and with the cam..
[HTC One X] DavidMc0:
The HOX screen is fantastic - had to wait a while for a big non-pentile, high pixel density screen, but it was worth the wait!

Note could have been great if it was not pentile. Wonder if the GS3 screen will match or beat the HOX screen?
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Your specific One X appears yellower than most. I had two side-by-side and one was a little less yellow than yours and the other was genuinely cool. Even with that, the cool one is still warmer than the whites on my G-Tab 10.1's IPS display. Samsung just loves to amplify colors regardless of the technology used. Seeing flesh tones that look like flesh on the One X is a refreshing change from my i9100. The display on the One X (at least mine) is the best I've seen on a (non-Apple) portable device. Second would probably be a tie between LG's S-IPS and SAMOLED+. I'm anxious to see SAMOLED+ HD when it comes out on the SGS3.

Here are some pics of mine (the cool one) taken with a Lumix FX500 using LCD Tester...
