Put Screen protector provide in the box on your phone.

After that,

you can play football with it .
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wirelessgirl:
It comes with a screen protector? The Rogers one doesn't. Those cheap bastards! :mad:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Razje:
Damn where did he drop it ?

Since it has like 2/3 dents (points of impact)

Looks like it dropped with the screen down on a pebble stone path :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alsaqr:
yes it does look bad, i put my hands on my head when i first saw it.

yes there is a screen protector pre-installed.

Hows the Rogers version?? any yellow tint issue yet ??

yes i assumed the same thing "screen down on a pebble stone "
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alexgogan:
Doing a self repair on these will be a nightmare as well I would say.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alsaqr:
true

and there arent any "Sony" screens for sale yet

only one seller has for $200 and says "sony ericsson"
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alfa Kenny One:
Can i buy it? I can use the battery as a spare one!:rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wirelessgirl:
How can I tell if there's a screen protector pre-installed? The Sony store told me there isn't one. When I had the X10 and Arc they both had pre-installed screen protectors.

I just got another Rogers one. The first one I had there was an issue with the home screen. I have yet to test out the screen to see if I have the yellow tint issue. I will play some games and heat up the device and look out for it.

Is there an app that looks for dead pixels or the yellow tint issue?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] WasherUK:
You can see the screen protector.

If you have photoshop make some pictures of solid colours 720x1280 then look at them in the gallery, you will see dead/stuck pixels.

You will see yellow tint just on the browser if you have it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] awf:
Ouch that is bad luck :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wirelessgirl:
I'm pretty sure what I see is a screen protector. But the Sony Store says it's an extra layering of the screen. :confused:

I did some testing last night and I don't have the yellow tint. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alsaqr:
that employee has no clue loool

im glad for you that you dont have that annoying yellow tint issue
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wirelessgirl:
Oh it gets worse, but I won't go there. :mad:

Yes I'm happy I don't have the yellow tint issue. I will keep testing out the device though.

Running MB865 after FXZ

Hi Cogeary,

on my previous quote, I mentioned that i managed to fxz after bootloop.

Im currently running MB865 2.3.6 which just updated and running smoothly after I called up my carrier to send me the phone+internet setting and now everything is running smoothly.

I guess I will leave it first and play it for a week and see what happen.

Thanks!

so if anyone watches vampire diaries,, klaus sends a picture text on his Gnote,

I CAN NOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THAT

help is appreciated..

please and Thank you!!!!!

the episode was Season 3 episode 18 i think.. half way through..

he basically writes and clicks sends,, and the image got sent,, not a typed message.

so if he a word his handwriting would've shown as a picture rather then the typed word,

i have the note, and i would really love to be able to do that
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mad383Max:
There is a round about way.

In smemo write your message, then hit menu button, then share with and messaging.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mathman76:
Use GO SMS Pro as your messaging app. It's built in.. I use it all the time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Hastalavista8:
doesn't really work that well

so when i tried that, it sent them a link to a website, which had to be clicked in order to view it.. so that isn't working.. any other suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] KodeRiter722:
+1

if you want to use a pre-existing pic, just press the attach button (its a paper clip on the left side of the text input window), and choose from the options below

....or you can use the note to take a screen capture by holding the pen button and long pressing the screen, then draw/write on it and share via GO SMS Pro
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Hastalavista8:
.

ok i get that, but is there a way to free write and send it quickly? without going through allot of buttons,, is there a quick and easy way,, say i wanna just text with mms?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mathman76:
It depends on the phone. If they are a GO SMS user, they receive it directly, otherwise it goes as a link.

I guarantee that Klaus was using GO SMS on his Note. I saw the episode.:-)

Thanks. I am in Saudi Arabia and my carrier is Mobily.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elminaalshamany:
You should look for carriers who offer the fastest data network speed. I know here in holland, its vodafone. So perhaps you should switch carriers for faster speed. There isnt a other way to increase it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
From what I was able to find though, Mobily DOES use a frequency (WCDMA 2100) that this phone supports.

Did you get the phone brand new? Or used? Are you sure it's an i9100 model phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amititzhaki:

Hello everybody!

I've faced with problem to launch FieldTest (*#*#7262626#*#*) after ARHD 6.5.3 was flashed. I restored fieldtest.apk using Titanium backup, but nothing happens when I dial the code. Situation is the same with latest ARHD 6.6.3. Also many other service codes was gone after flashing. Everything worked fine on stock Gingerbread ROM. Now I dont know who is responsible for this issue, ICS or ARHD?

Does the anybody have an explanation?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ps004ynos:
Hi,

I just bought a used Nexus S 9023. Bootloader remains locked. I want to use EFSPro to backup the EFS folder. I can't do this without rooting. Reading through the root instructions, using fastboot oem unlock wipes all data. My question is:

If you root with fastboot oem unlock, it states all data is wiped. Does this include the EFS folder?

Obviously this is a catch-22. Anyway around this or am I reading this all wrong?

Thanks.

hi..

no its not, its only wipe your external storage...

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ps004ynos:
Nice. I guess I was confused about the on-board memory since the phone technically doesn't have an SD Card slot. From what I read, the 16gb is partitioned as 1gb of internal memory and 15gb of "usb storage." So it's only the 15gb that is wiped?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
It wipes ALL personal data. This means:

/data partition (all apps and their data)

/sdcard

/cache

The android OS won't change, neither will /efs.

DO NOT mix ICS and GB Radios. DO NOT ask how to install these radios, I feel if you must ask how your not ready to handle the task and the demons that may occur, there are many threads on how to do these things.

If you end up goofing up and realize you have no or fluctuating 4G do the following.

1. Flash the RUU of your choice.

2.Upon installation flash nothing! reboot into HBOOT and select clear storage and let it run its course (remove sdcard if you want even though it wont wipe external card

3. Reboot phone normally verify everything is smooth

4. Optional- Flash Eng Hboot for GB or the Juopunutbear modified Hboot for ICS

5. Alternate Fix- Ive heard that you can flash stock recovery to the phone via fastboot reboot into hboot and select clear storage and will have same effect to get 4G working. Custom recoveries do not work to fix the issue via wipe menu. I only state use RUU of your choice as it gives you a clean slate and can be ruled out down the line in troubleshooting

Heres my compilation of CDMA+LTE Radios.

They are available as they came from RUU or Individual for mix n match.

What roms will this work with?

sent from my Clean Rezound
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I would think any. Its just the radio. At least with GB ROMs.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
It game from GB, so will work there. I ran it on RezRom S4 as well but not more than a few minutes to test it out so it appears to work for GB, ICS 3.6 sense based roms, and the ICS 4.0 evita based ones as well.

Of course I cant atest to the battery life on each just yet thats going to vary from user to userand rom to rom
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Would it be pretentious of me to ask for the leaked ICS radios in this form?

I'm not quite up to packaging things on my own just yet...the S-Off method had my hair on end :eek:
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Done :)
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
And now you're my hero!
[HTC Rezound] Marine6680:
I know at some point in the leaks, the new firmware changed the mount points for the memory... internal and SDcard I believe.

It messes with the OS seeing all or any of the memory.

If this change is in the radios then people might have issues mixing GB and ICS ROMs and radios.

If it is in Hboot, we don't need to worry.

There are a couple versions of ICS leaked firmware, the newest is the problem child for some people. Maybe we need to have the other leaked versions as well.
[HTC Rezound] nbhnohome:
Hi no,

Would you please create RUU 2.xx.xxx radio ?

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
True but theres a large handful of other files in the firmware and I dont think that radio firmware will contain the memory mount points

[HTC Rezound] dragonrazorz:
Hmmm, i used to get 4g in room until i updated, but idr if it was leak ics or the gb ota -_-
[HTC Rezound] narta:
The problem with sms in gsm is framework problem, not radios
[HTC Rezound] Abu-7abash:
And you concluded that from what exactly? Did you try messing up with the framework and it worked for you? Thought so.

Point is, till this time, no one knows for sure where the issue is in. Some say it's the RIL others suggest the framework..etc. I for one, is keeping all the options open.
[HTC Rezound] narta:
When the sms fails to be sent, it's due to trying to use the CDMA service and not the gsm as per logcat. Additionally this was a problem on stock GB radio, OTA GB radio and leaked ICS radio. So none of the available radios are capable of resolving the issue.

It's a software side problem and the only two things left to research is RIL and framework.

and just a friendly advice, don't come off like an douche, we all want the same thing :)

Well I'm complete its now running a ics Rom and everything is finally back to normal. I did let it sit overnight in WiFi though so the radios would calm down.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
The one common thing I keep seeing over and over again is that most people who are having problems have had the leak hboot 2.21 and firmware on their phone at some point in time.

The people who seem to have never had any issues at all whatsoever during all this S-OFF stuff, myself included, all seem to have never installed the ICS leak firmware or hboot on our phones.

I dont know how or why, but that leaked ics firmware and hboot 2.21 are literally the only common link between all the people who are having radio problems or sdcard issues.
[HTC Rezound] imparables:
Yeap....that's what I was getting at. Something in that leak could be screwing things up....but who knows.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Pretty strange. The weirder part is that not everybody who's installed the leak has had problems, but it does seem that everybody who has problems HAS installed the leak on their device at some point... go figure :confused:
[HTC Rezound] ih8mydroid:
Also hearing those that have tried to run the GB firmware and went back to the ICS firmware are no longer having as many issues. I wish there was a more local 4g area I could do some testing in. Either way, the leaked ICS firmware ran peachy keen on my phone.

Has anybody given the 2.21 hboot, along with the leaked radios, that came with the S-off program a try to see if it fixes the 4g issue?
[HTC Rezound] Irieone:
Those of you having issues...

Specifically, those who were running ICS leaked firmware and used the RUU to go back to GB firmware.....

Try resetting your SIM card with the Verizon server. Follow the link below. Log in to your account and select Activate.

https://login.verizonwireless.com/a...:443/vzw/secure/services/activatePhone.action

The Verizon server info related to the SIM will be mismatched with the GB radios on your phone. There is a possibility that resetting the SIM/Server info will fix your issues. There is also a possibility that it will not work since you are technically try to downgrade the SIM information. If this is the case, call Verizon and tell them you are have problems with your SIM card. They will send you a new one.

Don't deactivate your SIM card. I don't believe you can then activate it again in this situation. Again, if this happens, request another SIM card from Verizon.

I cannot test this as I do not have the issues. Good luck...
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Okay guys still no dice, I've tried everything, Ics ruin yiel.ds no 4g period. I've gone back deletong every partition and after examining the ruu of ics and gb there are different files my guess is Ics makes different partitions and when we down grade they remain in conjunction with gb, and those partitions unable to be erased so there probably is interference. I just made warranty claim told them unit was bricked so this isour guinea pig for five days I will be doing the testing. And at end of 5 days i will brick it by s-on eng bootloader lol. If we don't brick it before hand
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
I flashed the old stock rooted gb Rom with firmware included. Problems with 4g persisted. I went into the phone info and set it to global 4g mode and it has stopped dropping data for now. Weird

Edit just dropped 4g again lol
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Would like to add I will be trying different things on the five days. But work got me till Friday so sat n Sunday night I want to setup a irc channel and try to hammer this out. Issue being no 4g at home so id try the procedures to make sure it won't brick, if it doesn't it should be safe for u guys to try, and report back in real time . Lemme know guys. If we can get a dev to help us delete partitions made by ics that we cant do even through eng hboot that would help. A full fastboot partition map of ics would help
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Best way to brick: erase partitions, open up an hboot image in notepad, delete some random **** save and flash. Dead.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
OMG!

But yeah, that would do it...

So whats going on anyways? I missed it? Someone is having 4G issues with Radio?

They think its linked to ICS firmware?

Or am I too late to give some subjective feedback?
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Read back over the thread, but basically it seems that several people, although not all, who have installed the ICS leak and firmware are having weird issues with the radios and/or sdcard issues after doing the S-OFF. It seems that anybody who has not installed the leaked HBOOT and firmware at all appear to have no issues at all. My experience seems to mirror this so far, having had no issues at all and also having never used the leaked hboot/firmware.
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
Alot of people are experiencing 4g issues , after S-off and flashing different Hboot/radio combinations in a nutshell. Some have RUU'd back to GB and still had issues , others have tried experimental combo's . Seems that even RUUing back after trying these combo's haven't fixed their issue. So far FlyHalf, is the only one to successfully fix his issue for good it seems.

I ruu'd back after S-off , but live in a 3g only area so have no idea if I am affected .
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Interesting... I will post my experience in a nut shell and ask a few questions...

Im S-OFF on GB firmware, then went to ICS Firmware, then back to GB firmware (hoping I will catch the cat by the tail on the ICS Release). All doing complete RUU installs. Then when I came back to GB firmware I flashed jbear hboot.

Currently no radio problems, no SD Card problems.

But I can test theories if need be...

Whats the specific theory about the ICS firmware? That its screwing up the Radios / SD Card access when you try to revert to older radios? I dont think that is the case because I went from GB 2.x to ICS 3.x and then back down all the way to 2.x again all by way of RUU / S-OFF and had no issues at all.

What would I need to do to act as a control test? Flash ICS firmware then downgrade only Radios? What are the SD card issues?
[HTC Rezound] badogg:
I think that is the problem, using GB radios on ICS or vice versa.

I had the leaked firmware when I did the s-off, had the juopunutbear hboot flashed, then flashed the enghboot/GB firmware combo from the dev thread. No problems, but I don't have 4G in my area yet (come on Verizon! *taps foot*). However my 3G seems to be rock solid as well as my Wifi. Don't know if that helps or not...
