Unfortunately, getting expressions and tones across is impossible via written text, I think all of us have re-worded a reply in order to sound less 'douche' and you end up losing the context you were trying to get across.

'Douche' sounding or not, your still one of the most reliable, helpful and knowledgeable guys on here, Props for the honest post. Not changing my signature tho :p

I'm not sure exactly what OP is talking about, but I guess there must've been a situation if he/she has to make a thread about it.

Regardless, everybody falls into that category once in a while. Some posters sound like a douche when they don't mean to be, while some readers take offense when they shouldn't.

@adry i'v been here for around 2 months , and cruising through the general thread i did come across many of ur posts, some of them might be considered a lil (how u called them) douchey, but mostly they're in place and reflect a frustration many of us guys get when we see the same threads being opened over and over again, or similar stuff. so ur alias was one of the first that got stuck in my head since my merge to the gnex forum.

however, i've always asked myself, i see u're a recognized developer, but i've never came across any of ur work, how come u don't have a link in ur sig. ? would make it easier for people to follow up with ur work. was it for a previous device or ? :)

[Droid 2 General] TheGoose31:
Hi all,

When my phone is connected via usb and I either reboot or simply powerup the phone, it always loads the bootloader (2.37), rather than actually booting the phone up. I was wondering if this was fixable, as I always have to disconnect my phone, power it down, and then start it up again (which can make flashing roms difficult with all of the plugging/unplugging).

I hope someone understands what I mean!

Hello,

I will start with saying that Ive already checked every tutorial in every android website.

here is what I did.

I had Miui (Not the ICS one) I have tried to flash CM9 with the existing recovery. than something somewhere on the flash procedure go wrong and the phone just rebooted and putted in loop with no recovery option but download option. so I tried to flash the stock rom using odin 1.85, and the phone just looping on the image of the mobile operator. I did this procedure with the odin for more stock roms I found.

thanks in advance :) really I need your help...

Hmmm.. perhaps, you have to make sure all the files are properly placed (depending on the ROM you are installing). Also, I'd recommend using a pit file (and don't forget to click on "Re-Partition".. So far, it worked for me. ^.~
[General Questions and Answers] redemptore:
Hi,

Recently I found some images on website that next iPhone getting a 4-inch display.

Is it true or rumors. Some popular websites like Gsmarena also published some images of next iPhone. They informed "Acquired by 9to5mac from a Chinese iPhone parts supplier, the allegedly authentic photos below show the next Apple smartphone from both the front and the back."

Which means next iPhone resolution is 1136 x 640 pixels, making the screen 3.99 inches in diagonal.

Is it true or rumors?

Please reply.
[General Questions and Answers] mistermentality:
The four inch screen is one rumour that reputable news sources including reuters claim to have had verified by inside sources and so is the most credible and likely.

This is most unlikely, sorry to say. iPhones are built around an ecosystem, where the more things change, the more they stay the same. Changing resolution for hundred thousands of apps is easy, aspect ratio, hell on earth.

So I just got the ZAGG InvisibleShield for my i9300 for 29,95€, and I must say it was one of the most wasteful 30€ of my life. The cut is horrid, not covering large parts of the screen. Also why would they cut a hole for the led light? :confused:

My recommendation: STAY AWAY(at least until they fix it, which I doubt they will).

Getting a Copter one tomorrow as a replacement.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Hotobu:
Could you post a direct link to the Zagg shield you're referring to?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Toss3:
http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-cases-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php

I obviously overpaid by a very large margin to top it all off... -.-
[Galaxy S III Accessories] justiina11:
I think they have some kind of "money back guarantee", so I think you can get a refund or at the very least a working product when they have one.

But I do agree that ZAGG is overpriced and not at the level as some of their cheaper competitors.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] funk_doc:
Awesome gimmick :D
[Galaxy S III Accessories] be1ieve1111:
Seems like they were too much in a hurry to have a product so they can get on the GS3 accessory bandwagon.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TheDude1966:
Same experience here, paid about 15 ponds. The material is made of soft plastic, absolutely visible, looking from an angle at it, it looks like the Himalayan mountains. The fit is indeed very poor not covering the whole from side, thus making it prone to peel off. Going back to the cheaper protective shields.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] testicle:
Had mine on order with a case so now cancelled that order and will wait for better reviews :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TheDude1966:
Chears, smart decision! I am waiting for the original flip cover, so bought the Zagg as an intermediate protection, however since it's such a bad solution I took it of immediately. Get some shield on though... the S3 has such a pretty screen.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] testicle:
Of course - I did have a ZAGG on my old Smartphone which was very good so maybe when they have sorted them I'll put my order in again - maybe a cheapo will do for now :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
can we get a photo of the zagg on your phone?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Toss3:
I'll post one tomorrow. :) Don't have my DSLR at home right now.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Thanks, looking forward to it. Will have a $20 best buy gift card when I pick up the phone and I want to see if its worth it to use on the Zagg. Maybe they will have fixed them, or yours was a bad cut
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Toss3:
Don't waste your money, they are all cut in the exact same way, leaving the glass over the led light, around the front camera(and speaker) and home button, bare.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Why would you want the zagg in those places anyway? especially the front camera, with the orange peel texture and all
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Toss3:
I don't want the zagg to cover the camera or the sensors, but I do want it to cover the area around them, which it currently does not do(it actually leaves the whole area above the speaker, sensors and camera completely naked). The copter I bought is cut in almost the exact same way, only it doesn't have a hole for the led light.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
OH so are you basically saying its a large rectangle JUST for the screen?

(either way, I'll check back for your photo of it :) Not sure what else to use the gift card for lol)

edit: for a zagg type wet installation shield, I might even consider this - http://www.spigen.com/spigen-sgp-samsung-galaxy-s3-screen-protector-steinheil-flex-series.html

from the photo it looks like it will cover more of the screen. Steinheil make great screen protectors. Only issue is that I cant use the giftcard for it
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
Not only that, but the orange peel effect it gets is horrendous. Not sure if they're available for this device yet but XtremeGuard protectors > Zagg all day. Got mine for my Atrix 2 for $2 shipped on Amazon.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] matthewhotdude:
I got mine free with the phone, and of course I ****ed it up putting it on haha

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Doughnut:
I had one on my HTC Desire Z, i ended up removing it. I hated the texture, the sides started peeling so I just removed it all.

El cheapo ebay protectors FTW.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
You have done yourself quite the favor! The only way I'd ever use that thing is if was free and just a temp fix while my XtremeGuard protector was being shipped.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
I bought my phone at Carphonewarehouse and I was relieved that they had a screen protector so there was no chance of a scratch before I got a screen protector thru the post. Also CPW fitted it and it's guaranteed for 25 years. If anything happens to it, I just go back and they replace FOC. In use it's fine. Doesn't seem to allow to many fingerprints as well.

The protector is totally clear. Don't understand the fuss.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
LMAO @ 25yrs! They say that cause it sounds spectacular, can you show me just one 25yr old cell phone in use today? Geez, marketing folks sure know how to get our attention don't they? I'm not sure what protector you have since you didn't say, and I don't care to make assumptions, but this is what the fuss is in regards to the Zagg vs. XG

Zagg IS

My A2 w/XG

See a difference?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
I see the difference but my invisible Shield does have the same finish but not as much. Maybe being fitted professionally makes a better one .

But I did notice the reflected glare on your bottom one. This is not present in the Zagg.

Also using phone in real life you don't see that ripple effect . And lol there is no way I will have this phone in 25 years. But if in the next 12-24 months it scratches or falls off or gets dirty I get a new one fitted free.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
Not visible in real life? LoL!! I have seen about 5 different phones with the IS on them and every single one had that horrendous orange peel effect and was the FIRST thing I noticed. That's exactly why I decided to try the XG instead, it was just $2 shipped on Amazon, compared to $20 for the IS....and the XG also has a lifetime warranty ;)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
Strange but I don't have orange peel effect . I'm sure the difference is because I didn't fit it lol

Agree £2 is far more sensible price!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] bigstu23:
My voice is a very lonely one on this thread. I just fitted a Zagg to my S3 and love it! I previously had a Martin Fields on my S2 and it was really rough/scratched after only 2 months. From what I can see, the Zagg is a much tougher material. Yes, there is the orange peel effect-but nowhere near as bad as the photo posted earlier in this thread.

It does have a slightly rubbery feel but there are two BIG advantages to that:

1) Anti glare

2) Fingerprint resistance.

Both the above were hellish on the Martin Fields. Incidentally, the only reason I went for the Zagg was because it was the only one available-I too had previously been put off by other threads like this. No regrets though.

And, no, I don't work for Zagg!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] saltmine:
After a horrible experience with SGP FlexHD, I think I'll buy a Zagg just to try it out because they're on sale.

$11 for invisibleShield using coupon code: fbfans25 on the Zagg website.

Does anyone know how many screen protectors are included? Just one?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] bigstu23:
Here in Scotland you get one. I would hazard a guess that's standard anywhere. Certainly worth a try at that price. Make sure your handset is off for 24 hrs and that you use copious amounts of the fluid. The beauty of this is that you don't need to get it right first time-you can keep repositioning until the fit is perfect.

Another tip: run your shower in the bathroom for a few minutes to build up steam. This will dampen down any dust. Fit the protector in the bathroom once the steam has cleared a bit.

Lastly. The finish can look quite poor for a few hours until the shield starts 'shrinking' onto the screen as the fluid fully dries-give it time. Good luck!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Is yours cut different than the OP?

What does yours cover, just the screen or the area around the earpiece and button too?

Can we get any photos with screen off to see how it looks?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
Tomorrow I am going to take a photo of my Zagg. It's superb. Doesn't attract finger prints either. It is super clear.

I'm sure that as I had it fitted for me, it is looking better than perhaps somebody trying for the first time.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
Make sure to take a direct light reflection shot like I took of my Atrix 2. I hope they have rectified the orange peel, that and the price have prevented me from buying a Zagg.

Oh, and as for your theory on installation.....the install you see that I did on my Atrix 2, that was my first time ever applying an XtremeGuard, first time working on an Atrix 2 and first time installing a wet applied protector at all. I find it hard to believe that all the phones I've seen with Zagg's on them looked exactly like the one pictured and in most cases, worse.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] clninja:
I have a dry install zagg on my galaxy s2. Front and back protectors. I work at a tmobile store and the Zagg rep came in and showed us how to put them on perfectly. When I get a chance ill show a picture of how it looks with a direct reflection and all... it fits perfect and also does not have orange peel or any of the issues described..

Maybe this only happens with the wet install invisibleshields?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
Okay as promised three photos of my Zagg Invisible Shield. There are no issues that I can see and no fingerprints either. But I didn't fit this. Carphonewarehouse did. It did have the liquid solution if that makes any difference
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Toss3:
It's the same one I have and it doesn't cover the whole front like I mentioned in the first post; the area above the speaker and front facing camera isn't protected, which is a huge minus in my book. The orange peel effect is there as well, no matter who put it on.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
Yes its not covered. Doesn't bother me. Maybe the sensors work better uncovered, but its not a deal breaker either way. I can't see the orange peel :) do i need new glasses :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] InspectorFrost:
Hi,

Picked up an s3 yesterday, shame it's white but I'll live with it.

Anyway, I'm never a fan of cases and screen protectors as I feel you tend to lose some of that premium feel you get with a new device....that said, the sales assistant in CPW was pretty and I'd already refused insurance,cases and SD cards and the like so I relented and bought a Zagg.

I put this on last night as per the instruction, there were a few micro bubbles left after having placed it on the phone, I've checked this morning and they seemed to have decreased by about half and should hope that over the next 24hrs or so the rest should follow.

The fit is ok, sure Zagg seemed to have oddly cut a hole for the notification light, which seems a little strange but it's not overly concerning, the cut out around the camera and sensors could've perhaps been more sensitively handled but again I'm not overly concerned.

What does irritate me tho is the general feeling of slight sticky/rubbery feeling to the shield, as stated, I generally won't use a shield so I'm not sure if this sticky feeling will lessen or disappear over time (I'm guessing probably not).

Thing is, if one is going to use a protector at all then best make it one that actually works as I'm sure this does and will but the sticky feeling is off putting to say the least...think I'll give it a week or so and if it doesn't lessen I shall be removing it and take my chances without one.

I'm not knocking Zagg, their protectors work great as I found out when trying to stick a pen through a little of the surplus shield from the installation, the sticky/rubbery feel....not great.

Oh, and for those that say theres no orange peel effect on the shield....there is, I mean it's not like cellulite or anything, it's small and unnoticeable when viewing the phone at a regular viewing distance but it's there nonetheless.

Hope this has helped anyone on the fence re:buying a shield.

Overall, does what it says on the tin....ultimately, feels sticky

Cheers
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
Mine is sticky too. But it does get less after a few days. Just getting used to its feel. Does feel odd though.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Toss3:
Just applied the Copter screen-protector and it's much better, no stickiness nor orange peel effect. The cut is still pretty bad, only covering something like 90% of the screen. The copter was also much easier to apply and the feeling is much more like the screen itself.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Thanks for the photo!

Also, what case do you have on?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
Aegis hardshell blue. Bought it in Carphonewarehouse. They had about 5 or 6 decent cases for the S3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] EvilEdenX:
Good Product

i beg to differ on the Zagg screen protectors.

I think they are worth every penny and the best out there. Ive had them on my Iphone 4S on my HTC Sensation XE and more. Never had any problems, saved my phones from any form of scratches.

Put mine on my new S3, went for full back and front protection, back went on easy, front was more fiddly. Cut out for LED is a silly idea.

Only problem is the fitting, never easy for someone who hasnt done them before.

Oh and for anyone fitting these MAKE SURE ITS DRIPPING WET BOTH SIDES OF THE FILM! Its like putting window tint on a car, easier to slide out the bubbles and prevents marking it when using the rubber to sqeeze the bubbles out.

Value for money 8/10

Scratch resistance 9/10

Shape/Cut 7/10

Ease of fitting 5/10
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
I don't see any direct light reflection shots
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
So your front protector covers more than just the screen right? It covers around the buttons and earpiece too?

It sounds like your cut of the front is different than the OP

I wonder why they are making different cuts
[Galaxy S III Accessories] conmeo:
i have zagg shield as well. the worst **** ever. dont buy
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
They were lol. It's raining heavy here with thick fog all day like the Hound old the Baskervilles!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
I would only get it with my gift card if best buy gets the front that looks like this
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
What does the weather have to do with anything? A direct light reflection picture is one where the light source is reflected off the subject in the picture. Look at the pictures I posted, see how the light source is reflecting directly off the screens, that's what we need. The light source can be the sun, a light in the kitchen, the flash on your camera, anything, just make sure the source of the light is reflected directly on the screen. On your pictures, the reflection of the light source was at the bottom of the picture below the phone. If you decide to use the sun as the light source, make sure it's visible via reflection on the screen in the picture.

But i'm not quite sure why you're trying so hard to convince us your Zagg doesn't have orange peel, I assure you it does. I'm so sure of it because not only has every phone I've ever seen with one has it but it's listed as a feature on the Zagg website

If your protector doesn't have orange peel, it's not a Zagg.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] stringer987:
Got one fitted by CPW today. They charged me £7 for the privilidge but its better than what i would ever of achieved!!! It is a very good fit, hardly notice it on the screen. Need to apply some solution tomorrow, just a few micro bubbles but overnight this should sort itself out. Cost me £12 in the end after some careful negotiation.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] MrMrMr111:
Do CPW actually fit the Zagg shields for you in store in UK? I'm in UK and wouldn't mind them doing it, as I can imagine they do a lot, if so where and how much please? for the fitting I mean

cheers
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gavinfabl:
Yes most stores do fit them. Charge £6. My fitment was amazing.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Sobai:
Didn't notice it mentioned here, but there is currently a 25% promo code you can use with the InvisibleShield. Just enter FBFANS25 before the checkout and it will take some money off the price. Unfortunately I have to order my InvisibleShield off of their website since there isn't a store around me that actually has them for the GS3 yet.
