[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freddylam:
I bought 2 SGP Neo Hybird Cases 1 months ago.

1 for myself and another one for my girlfriend.

Mine is in silver color while my girlfriend's one is in red

Initially it fits well, look good.

The silver one has a different texture from the others, which is more slippery. So if you want a tight grip, then don't get silver.

But then bad thing occurs after 2 weeks.

The black silicon inner case deformed as you can see in the picture and no longer fit the back of the phone, which totally ruined the grip and texture of the case. The case popping is just annoying.

I then called the authorized dealer in Hong Kong and send them pictures of my case as you can see in this post.

They reply, saying that they are not providing any warranty for this case, and the silicon used is prone to deformed upon heating.

They asked

"Did you put your phone in pockets of your pants or charge your phone with the case on?"

I was shocked when the customer service asked me this. This is so ridiculous. It seems that these cases are really prone to getting out of shape. I never had a case that would deform just by putting the phone in pockets or charging the phone with case on.

I didn't do anything to overheat my phone. I did use customized ROM, the AOKP, and franco kernel. I only used milestone versions which should be stable. I never overclock my phone, but the case just deformed.

It does not seem to be a single issue.

My girlfriend's one is fine at 2 weeks, but now it starts to deform similarly to mine. Please be reminded that it is just 1 month since I purchased the cases.

I know that some people fancy about this case, yet I didn't see any review posted here.

This is what I experienced with 2 cases of the SGP Neo Hybird.

I think it does look good, but it doesn't last at all.

Oops, ya. The dealer promised to reflect my issue to SGP, but I got no reply after more than 1 week. So no good customer service and no warranty, and the case is easily deformed while the price is high. So I would discourage you guys from getting this.

It's one of the most regretful purchase I've had.

Updated on 14/6/2012

After looking at the replies, quite a number of people reported the same issue while a relatively few said theirs were fine.

OK I could be a little biased as mine have the problem. So see the replies here. Still take note that it's like a problem reporting thread so I might gathered more negative comments in this post.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
Next time go with the Ultra Hybrid, which has a hard plastic backing that won't deform.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mackster248:
Yeah I recommend the Ultra Hybrid as well... I did a review on it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1659677

On my video I actually mentioned why I wouldn't recommend the Neo for that exact reason. I hope they refund you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] megamind:
Where did you get the cases from? Are you sure they are not fakes?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IINexusII:
i think the iPhone cases have also had a similar issue, i had the neo hybrid before selling it and getting the Ultra hybrid. it feels a tiny bit thinner around the edges and more grippy as the silicone is around the edges.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
Pretty sure the looseness has been posted about. It does get worse with heat but mine is not nearly as bad, however I have the Verizon version with the extended battery. If you have the gsm version go with the ultra hybrid, it has better reviews.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] azlemad:
yeah I've seen a few people mention this problem, which is why I went with the ultra hybrid rather than the neo.. even tho I liked the neo colours better.

My ultra hybrid has been all good so far, love it =)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freddylam:
Yes I'm sure they are not faked. The case packing have the authorized dealer's logo and SGP HK dealer have seen my recept and regarded it as real.

What I feel bad is not only the quality of the cases, it's how the company handle defect products.

They showed no eagerness to solve my problem.

A case that is known to be deformed easily is still selling on their website.

People complain and get no reply.

That's SGP.

Only if you have perfect confidence on a specific product from SGP or your have no similar choice, or else I would try products from other companies instead.

Hope all of your ultra hybrid continue to function as intended.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trixnix:
Why dont you do this? You said sgp got no reply.

I have all the SGP Neo Hybird Cases except black. I haven't had a problem with warping or anything like that. Been using them for at least a few months. I've dropped my Nexus numerous times. I've even done the ole' "drop the phone try to catch it with my foot, but actually kick it across the floor" routine. Mine have held up pretty well. The silicon is still form fitting.

Did you leave yours out in the sun or under a heat lamp? Just sayin..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rye&ginger:
Check out the Momax iCase. Cheap, and fits well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KarlosTheJackal:
Myself & one of my best friends have the same problem.

He has the extended battery & has done exactly the same as yours while myself I don't own the extended battery own & it has just bubbled in the centre.

It annoying because I adore this case (Just feels perfect) but this small problem is annoying :-/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akack:
Any pics?

I know there are pics on Ebay but would like pics not from sellers.

It looks kinda bulky and was wondering if it has the same slim form has the SGP cases.

I currently have been using the SGP neo hybrid ~ one month now and no "sagging" of the silicone part yet.....if it does start to sag I may go with the MoMax or just get the ultra hybrid.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freddylam:
No... I think I have been using it quite properly.

Maybe I took it on and off quite often? Like twice a day??

It seems that the quality of this case is not standardized. Some people say it's ok while quite a number of others have the same problem with me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chenhi:
Mine too have this problem but it only occurs when the phone is hot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jlczl:
Mine was fine too.........until the recent very high temperatures here in South Texas. Now it's sagging quite noticeably so I switched to an ultra hybrid.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCX Designs:
Mine bubbled up after a while of the phone getting too hot. the volume button silicon part cracked and tore a little from it too. The power button doesn't respond sometimes either, its like that issue with grounding some people have with some smartphones that aren't responsive if you don't have both hands touching the physical frame of the device.

I ended up getting another case from another manufacturer (more like an otterbox but not as thick and not as heavy) but the sagging has atleast enabled me to keep the battery cover on when using it now, before it worked nicely without the battery cover and the battery stayed tight.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nbell13:
Just cut the stupid rubber back off... Make it a bumper case, which is way better anyway
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] squarejp:
Me too have the exact problem. The camera part does get hot after awhile of web browsing, video, or gaming. Silicon material does deform and expand when expose to heat that's around 30 degrees Celsius. I would avoid any silicon case in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JoeM01:
mine has a minute (like 1-2mm) gap. Nothing worth even mentioning and not visible to the eye unless really staring at it.

then again, I have the 2000 mAh battery, and it seems to fill out the back of the case a little bit more. I'd suspec that with the 1750 battery, it wouldn't fit as well.

i like the case though. my favorite so far.
[HTC Sensation] laurcapa:
Hy

It seems I have some problems with my non routed , HTC Sensation .

For a few days now he goes in to dock mode without being conected to any dock or cable and is does not come out of that state even after a restart . Some times i can get it to work I even had a whole day but when i receive or make calls it will always enable the speaker . I have already returned to my factory default , erased the phone but with no luck , do you have any advice regarding my problems ?
[HTC Sensation] M..N:
There may be a problem with the micro-usb port. There could be a build up of dust in there.
[HTC Sensation] laurcapa:
in this case is there any way i can remove the dust or i have to take it to service to open it up ?
[HTC Sensation] M..N:
Well you could just try and blow in to it. Or you could buy a can of compressed air and use that.

Is there a hardware list out there somewhere that list the specifics of the TF201? I am working on a UBUNTU build, but I would really like to get my hands on a list for supporting all of its components.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] snowkilts:
This has been brought up in another thread, but I felt it deserved it's own.

My (stock) HOX is consistently unable to keep the correct time. Over night last night it lost 30 minutes. This is pretty typical. Between 5 and 7 am this morning it lost 10 minutes.

Anybody have any ideas as to how fix this?

It does not seem to matter whether I have the time set to Auto or Manual. In fact yesterday, with the correct time set manually, the time would jump off by about half an hour when I set it to Auto.

I did not notice this problem for the first few days I had the phone. Also, I did a hard reset a few days ago and the problem went away for at least 48 hrs.

The clock always loses time, never gains.

Time fluctuations seem to happen suddenly and in large chunks. I downloaded an app called ClockSync, which informed me that my clock was 468 seconds off at 6:36 am. The app is set to check every hour, so the time must have been correct at 5:36.

I am stumped by this. Any suggestions for further diagnosis (or a fix!) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I would also like to know this answer. I noticed the other day it was off by 10 minutes. I was almost late to work.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aimetti:
this happened to me the first 2 days i owned the phone, i upgraded to 1.82 and hasnt happened since
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tjsimmons:
Overnight my phone ends up a few minutes off.. but I haven't tried the 1.82 RUU update yet - sort of leary to flash things without a different recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] foxbat121:
Sounds like it is your local tower. Auto means read time information (local time as well as time zone) from cell tower.

AT&T has a lot of time related problems with its 2G GSM towers (those need time to be set by AT&T). Its 3G/4G towers don't have this problem because WCDMA requires those towers have their own GPS chip onboard, IIRC.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] geoviper:
Similar issue...

...in Essex County NJ. But after several changes from AUTO to MANUAL and back and forth the problem seems to have disappeared. No issues for the past week.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Askal007:
Never had a problem with the system time, are you using an older SIM perhaps?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
How "older" can it be? Its a MicroSIM!

I don't see how this problem could be SIM related.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] scottymomo:
Noticed it this morning here. A reboot got it back up to the correct time.. Cue Steve Miller.. time keeps on slipppin...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] snowkilts:
I don't think so. I am well covered by 4G. Also I've been on manual pretty much exclusively. Its been better lately though. Just losing a few seconds here and there.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iamgeorge:
I've noticed it in two separate areas, about 140 miles apart. When away from home, it was only off about 30 minutes. Both areas I have good 3G/4G coverage.

Yesterday, while at my office, the phone lost 3 hours and my morning alarm went off while I was sitting at my desk.

This morning, it jumped ahead 6 hours and my weather widget said I was in Paris.

I'm on a stock AT&T HTC One X, and I'm thinking about returning it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] snowkilts:
1.83 ROM seems to solve the problem

As an earlier poster noted -- upgrading to 1.82 ROM seems to resolve the problem.

I'm using a very helpful app called ClockSync (you've got to love an app with a "Blame Google" button:)).

Using the 1.77 ROM, ClockSync was correcting an 45 seconds per day. With the 1.83 it's about 7 seconds per day. Using manual time exclusively.

Cheers,

[HTC Amaze 4G] njzfinest5013:
Hi guys I'm fairly new here and was hoping you guys could help me out.

so i got my amaze a couple months ago from this guy and he told me had rooted the phone but then he unrooted it.

So fastforward to today and i'm trying to update my phone to the new android 4.0 . it downloads the update but then when it shuts off to start installing the update a triangle pops up with an exclamation mark.

it wouldn't go away so i took the battery out to restart it, which it did.

How do i go about fixing this . Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

and this was on my bootloader screen if it helps any

Unlocked

[HTC Amaze 4G] coupetastic-droid:
To receive ota's you must have a locked bootloader. Yours is unlocked.
[HTC Amaze 4G] -FuRBz-:
Download hasoon all in one tool. Install the HTC drivers and then relock the bootloader.. Then you'll be all set to install them update

Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G
[HTC Amaze 4G] njzfinest5013:
i did just that and now the phone keeps rebooting into the bootloader.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
I think you need to restore stock recovery, etc before yo relock the bootloader and be on stock rom.
[HTC Amaze 4G] njzfinest5013:
I'm back to being unlocked. How do i go about restoring to stock recovery??
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Just download one of the stock ruu files, place it on your sd card rename it PH85IMG.zip and reboot into HBoot mode, it should restore your phone to complete stock.
[HTC Amaze 4G] aiwapro:
What radio is on the new OTA update? Can someone who has done the update, post?
[HTC Amaze 4G] njzfinest5013:
i did just that but when it goes into hboot it says that the image is not found or has no image. should i try with a new SD card?
[HTC Amaze 4G] aiwapro:
I have the same problem. I get a Main ver is old error when attempting to load the stock ruu, PH85IMG_Ruby_TMOUS_1.36.531.6_Radio_1.07.550L.04DC_30.64.550L.07_release_219373_signed.zip .
[HTC Amaze 4G] Thaxtonator:
There is no way to get it back to stock with HBOOT on the ICS RUU you cannot go back, I got screwed over too. Unless you got S-Off before you went to ICS, that's the only way you can go back to stock. I think, that's what someone else told me, so give it a try but otherwise I think you are screwed, but I don't really know what I'm talking about. Can anyone confirm this?
[HTC Amaze 4G] aiwapro:
Ok, I flashed via HBOOT the same version that was on the phone, PH85IMG_Ruby_TMOUS_1.43.531.3_Radio_1.08.550L.19DC_30.66.550L.08D_release_228638_signed.zip , and it seems to have accepted it, and going through the updates now.

Now, I will boot into stock, and attempt the new OTA ICS upgrade.

Will a restore work via CWM, that I took from the stock GB ROM above?
[HTC Amaze 4G] aiwapro:
OTA ICS Upgrade = Success

I was going to pull the file off of the phone, but I started the upgrade and forgot. I could not locate it afterwards.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Mclovin80:
How did you flash via Hboot? Did you rename the file before you put it on your SD Card? Also do you have stock recovery?
[HTC Amaze 4G] njzfinest5013:

[HTC Amaze 4G] edmcrocker:
how do you put files on your sd card in hboot? i relocked my bootloader and now my phone is stuck in hboot
[HTC Amaze 4G] njzfinest5013:
Unlock your amaze again. Follow the hasoon steps and you'll be able to unlock it.

once you unlock it download this file

http://d-h.st/OIC

once that is done rename it to "PH85IMG" and then put it into your sdcard

then follow these steps

"Run the command on the hasoon tool to "Boot into Bootloader" It should scan for the ROM. If it doesn't (It may be in Fastboot mode, that's why) press the power button so it switches from Fastboot into HBOOT mode.

4. It will detect it and press the Volume Up button. It will flash the Stock ROM."

once it's done flashing you'll be on stock and then you can update the phone to ICS.

TOOK ME ALL DAY! dont worry you'll figure it out.
[HTC Amaze 4G] papeshfoo:
I have one question, how do I do it if I don't have an SD card? I rooted without one...
[HTC Amaze 4G] hisandherturbo:
I am kind of in the same boat. I am NOT rooted, I am S-ON, I am locked. I have only updated the leaked ICS last month (just by putting it on a SD Card and loading it that way). Now, I want to update to T-mobiles released version and I can't. And I also can't update to an older factory one (says it's an older version). Is there anyway I can be "normal" and 100% Stock without all kinds of crazyness which I don't understand?

TY

JOE
[HTC Amaze 4G] papeshfoo:
Im having a major problem...I flashed the stock recovery and relocked my BL via Hasoons toolkit, now when I go to re-download the ICS update my phome says that there are no updates at this time...WTF? It was there earlier, now its not...
[HTC Amaze 4G] njzfinest5013:
You could try putting it on the internal storage but that might not work. You can pick up a 2 GB micro sd card from Walmart for like a $10 maybe cheaper.
[HTC Amaze 4G] papeshfoo:
Don't know if I will need to yet, since I finally got a stock recovery flashed. Now I'm worried about why I can't het the OTA anymore. It was there earlier today, now its not, says my phone is up to date.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
So you're back on complete stock GB now? Keep checking for the update, it says you're up to date sometimes.
[HTC Amaze 4G] edmcrocker:
Thanks so much njz! Problem solved!
[HTC Amaze 4G] heelandtoe:
OP,

Download stock rom.

Rename it to PG85IMG.Zip

Flash stock recovery

Copy PG85IMG to.sdcard

ReLock bootloader, insert SD Card,

reboot into Bootloader, flash the update.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Slashrocket:
I think the phone will not detect the update if the battery is under 50% even if it's charging. Just what I think.

Also, how and where do I put the stock rom exacty? Do I just plug in my phone and put the rom in my micro sd card or internal storage?
[HTC Amaze 4G] papeshfoo:
Nah, I tried it this morning after a full night charge, still nothing.

[NFC Hacking] chambers7867:
I bought some nfc tags from the good people over at tagsfordroid.com and took the weekend to program a few of the tags. I thought it would be cool to list some of the programs/actions people have programmed into the tags so others can get some good ideas.

Program: NFC Task Launcher.

Work tag:

~switch tag.

1. Get to work

:

Disable wifi

set ringer type vibrate

set brightness to 26

disable bluetooth

2. Leave work:

Enable Wifi

Set Ringer type Normal

Enable Auto-Brightness

Ringer Volume 7

NFC on key chain.

~switch tag.

1. hotspot on:

enable portable hotspot

set brightness to 16

disable wifi

disable bluetooth

2. hotspot off:

disable portable hotspot

enable wifi

enable bluetooth

enable wifi

That's all i have for now. lets see what else everyone is programming into their nfc chips.
[NFC Hacking] chambers7867:
i also put an nfc tag by my calendar at my work to pull up my calendar app when i tap my calendar.

[NFC Hacking] chambers7867:
good article i saw that one when doing a search.

Just thought it would be cool to actually show the action items that were posted to the tags so someone could reproduce it if they thought it was a good idea.
[NFC Hacking] chambers7867:
has anyone figured out how to turn on and off an exchange account with NFC? I would love the tag that i use when i leave my office to turn on my exchange account mail so i can get my e-mail while im at home. I dont need it on while im at work because im in front of a computer all day and have access to my e-mail.
[NFC Hacking] Ammontj:
I'm sure that you could set something up using a combination of NFC Task Launcher and Tasker.

Also, while I'm tooling around trying different tags, It seems that placing tags on a metal background causes them to not work... I have had no success placing them on the side of the front door (metal door...) so I can touch it on my way out the door. Also all the desks and everything else for that matter is metal at work (Navy) so placing a "work" tag has proven to be rather difficult to accomplish successfully... May have to try different types of tags to see if there is success with another type.
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
Get metal isolating tags, they have an isolation layer between the IC and the surface you place them on so they work on metal. They are a bit thicker as a result.
[NFC Hacking] hv010293:
place them on so they work on metal
