[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bernechad:
I got mine at Best Buy.

$50 for old evo

$50 for activating a new phone

$50 for getting the evo lte.

Total cost to me = $56
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] XAnimal:
Thats what I plan to do, but at my BB they told me their running a promo if you trade in an EVO its a $50 card plus value of the phone and I also have the $50 for the phone freedom....So -$50-100, if all goes as they say I'll let you know in the morning
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LuBi:
I was considering BB but since the phone is no longer available for pre-order I'd miss out on that $50. I wish I hadn't trusted WireFly so much and just pre-ordered as a backup plan. Now I'm trying to decide if waiting another week is worth paying $100 for it or not.

I haven't seen where you get $50 for activating a new phone and I know the $50 pre-order GC is gone now.. But if that activation one is good I basically pay $150 OOP and get $100 in credit on my RZ account bringing it down to $50 after everything. Not bad..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Curb71:
Isn't that the deal that was available for preorders? I think the OP is referring to what's the best deal now since the phone is technically available in stores as of today. I'm still trying to figure it out myself. And as another thread said you cant combine the best buy reward zone points AND get the $50 gift card. I think walmart $150 sounds like the best no hassle deal as of now.

UPDATE: SGP has sent me a new FlexHD for free, so I will be trying it when I receive it. I am actually very impressed with their quick response!

I just got one and it has a horrible rainbowing effect. The bubbles are also seeming to be impossible to get out.

I've read that the rainbow dots will disappear after it has dried, but it has been a few hours and I see no improvement at all.

Should I try removing it and putting it back on? Or is it too late for that?

I'm surprised because I have had good experiences with SGP protectors on my SGS2.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Wait at least a day, maybe even two for it to clear up.

Can you post photos of it on the phone?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] saltmine:
Here are some pictures.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Sorry i meant with the screen off to see the coverage of the Shield. Does it cover the entire front or just the screen?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] saltmine:
It covers everything except button, front camera, and speaker.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Is it easy to slide your finger across the screen?

And is it starting to look better yet
[Galaxy S III Accessories] saltmine:
Yeah, everything about it is fine besides the rainbow ****.

And no.. hasn't improved a single bit. It seems like a defect in manufacturing. I'm going to file a complaint with SGP.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Sgp steinheils make some of the best screen protectors, I'm sure they will give you a free one. If they do and you don't want it, please send it my way as I am interested in trying this :o
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jonny68:
I still have the SGP Ultra Olephobic protector on my SGSII and it has been brilliant
[Galaxy S III Accessories] saltmine:
Yeah, that's the same one I had on my GS2. I was expecting this one to be of the same quality..and i'm really disappointed because it cost over $20 :/
[Galaxy S III Accessories] penpower:
Yeah, give it couple days to dry up. It takes time for water to vaporize and dry.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] n-j-f:
Odd. I ordered their Ultra Optics version, not FlexHD, which they said would be available from June 4. Had an email Friday "Hello, thank you for your purchase and sorry for this news, but I heard an urgent message from headquarter this morning that there was a problem in production and it is postponed for another several weeks. Apparently the size of the final protector had a problem, but I'm not 100% sure. Would you still wait for its arrival? If not, I will gladly cancel your order. I'm very sorry for your inconvenience. Please let me know. Thank you."

Surprised your version was available if they had size problem on mine.

I cancelled and ordered Brando instead.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] redder95:
Brando? Hmmm...I've never heard of them in this part of the world. Any good? Equal to SGP?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] demondor:
Thanks for the heads up. Was actually considering buying it
[Galaxy S III Accessories] dehaani:
I remember Brando protectors way back when I had my Sharp Zaurus, they were the screen protector to have. Much better than Martin Fields and many more expensive ones at the time.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] redder95:
But they don't seem to have a photo of the cutting on their website. Anyone has a shot?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ArbiterGR:
Excuse me for the off-topic, but does anyone know where to buy sgp protectors within the EU? Shipping costs through spigenshop are way too expensive for me.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] n-j-f:
SGP also sell through Amazon.com where their shipping charges, at least to the UK, are less.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] vikashsingh:
first try to remove the bubbles from screen protector

because i didn't get such type of problem...

i purchased a screen protector from fommy.com

[Galaxy S III Accessories] can7:
i have a invisible shield on mine which isnt to bad but normally always use SGP im disappointed to here the quality of the gs3 screen protector is bad.can anyone recomnend any other good protectors ?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] saltmine:
UPDATE: SGP has sent me a new FlexHD for free, so I will be trying it when I receive it. I am actually very impressed with their quick response!

I'll tell you guys how it goes when I get it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] twoashj:
Most of companies are selling galaxy s3 screen protectors at an increased price because the screen got bigger than galaxy s2.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Michael_P:
So are these really as good as people make out or just complete design overkill and get something just as good for a third of the price?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mrvirginia:
the Flex is cut differently than the others because the Flex is a wet install and covers the whole phone, whereas because of the curved screen (didn't even know SGS3 had curved glass until now) the other static cling/dry install protectors are cut smaller.

---------- Post added at 12:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 PM ----------

you have to wait for it to dry, mate. try not to use too much solution. i had perfect success the first time, and only time, i've installed one of these on the HOX i used to have. did it at night and by the time i woke up for work the next morning, approx 8hrs, it was completely cleared up. (it was a skinomi, but they're all the same regarding install)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] al0n9:
hi guys, inside the flex hd box got 2 thermoplastic urethane film right? do we have to apply both film or just one film?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] twoashj:
whaaaat? you have 2?? you are lucky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D:D

Just kidding. I got 2 although it's Ultra Crystal. I'm guessing they just put extra one in case you mess up. It was like that for my gs2, but it can be different for the new product. It can be back and front. Does it look same with same cutouts?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] al0n9:
yup,both is the same pattern, for the front protector only..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Sizzlincok:
I just picked up a Rogers One X and i notice that i only have 9 gigs on usable storage space..

is that normal? i thought i was supposed to get somewhere close to like 13gbs :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
It's normal, at&t is the same. They dedicate a about 4gb to apps.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bloodrain954:
I feel kind of lied to. If they would have expected said "9gb of storage" I would have really thought twice about the phpne
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
Yeah, still a great phone, and if you use cloud space its not terrible.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] focussoft:
I had 16Gb internal en 16Gb external on my SII

Last week i had to delete a lot of stuff from my HOX because i could not make a backup through recovery

Also the amouth of RAM is loads lower then i had left on the SII which was always over 500M free , i'm happy if it doesn't drop below 200M on the HOX

I also feel lied to as it said 16Gb internal storage and 1Gb RAM which is also not true because it shows less then 700Mb total (672 MB ?) in task manager

Still its a great phone , but it could have been better with 32Gb storage and real 1Gb RAM

I'm kinda twitchy all the time because i have to keep a eye on storage and memory all the time....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] fluxgfx:
sigh... an other one of these post.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
Android optimizes it's ram fine, watching it actually causes more problems, and it has 1gb ram, a portion about 300mb is uses for camera, phone, graphics, and critical apps.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
You weren't lied to. Storage is storage, and there is 16 GB of it. What they are saying is technically quite true. Yes, they could be a little clearer and say 9 GB of user accessible storage. But there is no lie here.

Every electronic device (including all smartphones) that has an operating system and other separate partitions (like apps), includes those in the storage total. Would you buy a laptop with a XX GB hard drive advertised, and expect the OS to not take any of the drive space? Of course not.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcbwaters3:
I'm on the verge of ordering a galaxy nexus from Google and Im going to use it through straight talk. Just wondering which sim card I should order. They have an unlocked sim and an att sim. I don't have good T-Mobile coverage. I just want to make sure ill have 3g or hspa+ data with whatever sim I choose.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nexicon:
Seems like everyone is enjoying amazing speeds on t-mobile except, of course, if you're in kansas city...we have shhit speeds. And why would even throw your money to an evil company that is against net neutrality, fair prices and helps the NSA record your calls!?! Just go t-mobile :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcbwaters3:
I would go T-Mobile but they don't even have 3g data where I live. It sucks. I'm in a Bermuda triangle of cell service where my only choice is verizon or Att.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] housry23:
It sounds like you've answered your own question. If AT&T has good service where you live, than go AT&T prepaid. T-Mobile has improved their service in the last 3 years and has expanded. I'm not sure how long it's been since you checked on their coverage in your area, but it may be worth a shot. Great thing about prepaid is, if you don't like what you have, you can go a different route the next month.

Here's a great and informative thread about prepaid and may also have some more options for you to check out. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1455014
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RichAP:
You could order the Tmobile sim and if it doesn't work out, you can order an ATT sim from them and switch your StraightTalk number over.

This will cost you another $15 though for the 2nd sim.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcbwaters3:
Does anyone have any experience with simple mobile? Looks to be the same thing as straight talk. Just buy a sim and service plan. I'm assuming they are using AT&T and T-Mobile towers just like straight talk.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bluerex1985:
Hello all,

Just wanted to share my experience with the Nillkin case (found on eBay, lots of sellers selling it). It comes in around $12 with free shipping. I got the clear black one.

It comes in a decent packaging, and it includes the case, screen protector, and a screen cleaning dongle.

The case itself is actually very nice. The back is actually a sandy/matte texture, and the side has grooves on it to enhance your grip on the phone. It doesn't add much dimensions to it, as it feels still relatively the same size as it is naked. It has openings for the headphone jack, USB port, camera/LED, mic, and speaker. The power button and volume controls doesn't have an opening, but you can still easily press on it with the outlined placement on the case. Speaking of this, I actually found that after putting on the case, it makes it easier for me to reach the power button to unlock the phone, as it increases the area you can use to push it. Also, it contours to the camera, so even if you rest it on its back, you will be resting on the case and not the hump from the camera.

The fit of the case is not perfect, as it is meant for the international version of the One X. It still fits...just some parts you will find it to off by a few millimeters, which is especially noticeable on the camera, and speaker, but good news, it doesn't block it. Other than that, its a very good fit, and doesn't attract too much lint in my pocket. Also, the case wraps around the front edges, so even when you put the phone face down, you will not be placing it on the screen (unlike the Nillkin hard-case).

The screen protector is a different story. I'm not sure if it came with the wrong one or not, but its very small, and doesn't cover the whole screen...at all. Its also a finger print magnet, and you would have to wipe it down a few times a week.

Overall, I'm happy with the case, but will probably replace the screen protector down the line with something else.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aimetti:
i have their hardshell case and i must say its one of the best cases Ive bought for any phone ive owned. Unfortunately , just like your TPU version , it is meant for the international one x so it doesnt fit perfectly. Its not awful but due to that I am using my diztronic case most of the time.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] methodz:
Can we get a big pic of the back just so we can see how opaque the material is please. Just want to see how strong the logo shows if at all. But thanks for the review.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] liang777:
Screen protectors are made smaller to fit curved displays

Most of the screen protectors for curved displays are cut smaller to prevent bubbles at the edges. This has been confirmed by the screen protection manufacturers in the world. Don't be surprise if you find they are smaller for HTC One X, Samsung Galaxy S3, and other curved display phones.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bluerex1985:
Here it is. Its not really opaque, and a lot of details do show through the back.

Thanks for letting me know!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] methodz:
Thanks for that back pic bluerex! I may just go for this one.

Hey i just looked at the top pics again of the screen protector! LOL!!!!! That thing is waaaaayyyyyy offff. That can't be right haha.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] t3chn0s1s:
I too picked up a clear Nillkin TPU case for my AT&T HOX. I personally must say that it is BY FAR my favorite TPU case for the HOX so far. I am a major cell phone case whore too, btw. LOL

If this Nillkin case doesn't fit the AT&T HOX right I certainly can't tell. It looks perfectly fine to me. I especially like how it makes pressing the power button SO much easier than any other generic TPU case I've bought. It actually makes it SUPER EASY to press the power button whereas other TPU cases didn't seem to line up quite right making me have to try to press the power button more than 3+ times each time I lock or unlock it. After liking this case so much I went ahead & decided to order the Super Shield case as well as the hard plastic fashion case - both by Nillkin on eBay. Can't wait to try those out too!

How does it fit around the sides? The case I bought was very loose around the sides and made the volume rockers impossible to press. And the top wasn't contoured enough to press the power button easily.

I actually ended up finding an even better clear TPU case on Amazon. It's pretty similar to the Nillkin but this one is made by Diztronic and it's on Amazon. It's got a matte finish on the back and cut outs for ALL the ports. Plus it's made specifically for the AT&T One X not the international one. Just Google 'Diztronic matte back TPU' and you should be able to find it on Amazon.

Saw that and it looks good! Only thing is I wish there were not cutouts for the volume and power. I'm not into that depression where the cutouts are when you reach for the buttons :( But I do like that it is actually made for the AT&T One X because I hate how the speaker and camera are off alignment on basically every other case.

Can i ask a question please? What is the difference between an international htc one x and a htc one x AT&T?

I have an htc one x with a quad-core processor and tegra 3 which is fully unlocked version, i want to know its version meaning if its international or not. I really love a tpu nillkin case. Please search this case on ebay :

Type ( Nillkin TPU Soft Cover Case +LCD Guard HTC One X LTE Endeavor Edge Supreme S720e ) from the ebay search bar. Want to know if this case is for the international htc one x or for the AT&T version.

Also I'm a bit confused about the HTC one x LTE version.

Please help me out. Many Thanks

Hello May2012, how does the nillkin tpu case fits ur HTC one x, especially around its camera lens and flash?

And by the way which version is your HTC one x?? The quad-core with tegra3 or dual-core?

Just want to make sure, this fits perfectly fine on the AT&T version with all cutouts and camera aligned?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pear93:
does the Clear TPU one, become yellowish over time?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] paulk_:
I'm using it with the One XL (dual core, same as the AT&T version) and the cutouts are close to perfect: bottom lip covers the bottom of the silver ring, but doesn't extend to the lens.

Yes it does. I can't be sure, but I think the case is now darker than when I first got it, I just slip it in my pocket all the time so it picks up a lot of pocket lint etc.

I have 3 noticeably yellow spots: just above the HTC logo, just above the pogo pins, and just below the pogo pins.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeremyNSL:
I bought this on eBay for my evita and I've been using it for a few weeks. Its a really good case!

It adds virtually nothing to the size of the phone, but its textured grip makes the phone much easier to handle (I feel like the HOX is a bit slippery normally). It looks great too.

As to the fit of the case on my evita:

Speaker cutout is ever-so-slightly off (like 1% too small). I don't think it would be noticeable with volume levels.

Camera is also slightly off but nothing is covered up so functionality is unchanged.

The larger problem (and one no-one mentioned here) is that the mic is almost completely covered up. The cut-out for the mic is a few mm off, which is a big deal with such a small cutout. I'm not sure whether this would effect mic reception but I'm pretty sure it would have to, at least partially.

So I used a small drillbit and bored out the whole a bit bigger. Looks a bit mangled honestly (maybe a dremel would work well) but its a pretty small cutout so its not really noticeable.

Anyway its a great case for $10 and I'm pretty happy with it. But if you are buying you should be aware of the mic issue.

Hey guys i just got this phone today, i turned it on and got an update right away, the 1.29.751.12 one. But im just wondering, whats the best way i could stay on stock and remove that pesky menu button to get full screen apps, it would be preferred if i could somehow stay on stock and just get it, any help would be appreciated.

I am willing to unlock the bootloader/root if need be, and i know how to do that, im just wondering whats the best way to go about this while keeping things as stock as possible as they are now?

thanks so much for any help.
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
You can remove the menu button by modifying every apps androidmanifest.xml one at a time. You don't need root. Download astro from play store and backup your apps using it. Transfer them to your pc. Download apktool and decompile the apk-files using it. There are plenty of tutorials on how to do it. Then open the androidmanifest.xml and search for targetsdkversion or if you can't find it use the minsdkversion instead. Change the value to 14. Then recompile the apk file using apktool. You need to sign and zipalign the file before use. I prefer a tool called signare for this. Then just enjoy your menu buttonless apps. This worked for about 80% if apps I tried. Remember to use this for only the apps in which the menu button doesn't have an action or there is an in app menu button.
