I tried the good ole fashioned search button and that one never came up! Thanks for the link.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bobb_o:
I'm thinking the best way to achieve this would be to buy and program an NFC sticker to do whatever you'd want it to do (Bluetooth, GPS, etc.) Could anyone think of a better way?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrianDigital:
Yes that's what I do, however without stickers you should be able to say connection to a Bluetooth device and in the setting it should allow you to launch car mode
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gravis86:
There's a car mode???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GreatBigDog:
It's a pain to get and install but the Google car home app can be set to launch upon connection to a specific bluetooth device.

Edit:

I assume that since this is not a paid app, posting a link is OK. If not, mods please remove.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 2ksilverbullet:
So far, so good! Thanks for the link.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] usafle:
I didn't know there was a car mode either..... still no answer to your question (and now, mine)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
Yeah there is. You can enable it quite easily actually:

adb shell am broadcast -a android.intent.action.DOCK_EVENT --ei android.intent.extra.DOCK_STATE 2

To return to normal mode

adb shell am broadcast -a android.intent.action.DOCK_EVENT --ei android.intent.extra.DOCK_STATE 0

This simulates entry into the actual car dock. Instead of using an alternate "car" app this allows the home screen to rotate 90 degrees and re-arranges things a bit so the device is usable in this orientation.

1 is the desktop dock (if you're in desktop dock mode all calls answered automatically go on speaker mode for reference).

I'm working on triggering this via an NFC tag, but currently the runtime won't execute this (with or without root) and you can't broadcast the intent manually (permission denied). Hoping to get it working though as I'd, personally, use this quite a bit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] usafle:
I'd be interested in that as well. For now I just side loaded the old Google Car Dock apk.

Good luck if you get it to work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xsR1zU:
You might have trouble with it working if LD_LIBRARY_PATH and BOOTCLASSPATH are missing from the environment (adb shell includes them for you, so that's why it works in adb).

Using Java, something like this works for me (obviously requires root):

static void setDockModeOn(boolean on) {

try {
ProcessBuilder process = new ProcessBuilder(
"/system/bin/su",
"-c",
"LD_LIBRARY_PATH='/vendor/lib:/system/lib' "
+ "BOOTCLASSPATH='/system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/core-junit.jar:"
+ "/system/framework/bouncycastle.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:"
+ "/system/framework/framework.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:"
+ "/system/framework/services.jar:/system/framework/apache-xml.jar:/system/framework/filterfw.jar' "
+ "/system/bin/am broadcast -a android.intent.action.DOCK_EVENT --ei android.intent.extra.DOCK_STATE "
+ (on ? "2" : "0"));
process.start().waitFor();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

}
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
Excellent, this is what I was missing :) It was getting frustrating trying to find out whey I couldn't spawn a shell to do what worked perfectly with adb shell. Much appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ischi:
no other way via API

Is there no other way to fire the broadcast message via API without root?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
Not for the Galaxy Nexus. Because you're simulating a hardware broadcast (car dock entered) you can't request a permission to broadcast that intent and it's restricted.

For devices that don't use this hardware event broadcast you can use UI manager to implement it quite simply (this doesn't do anything on the Galaxy Nexus though other than put the car mode icon in the left hand corner, it doesn't actually put the device into car mode).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shaninNH:
Search "Car Widget Pro" in the Play Store. It works great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] redugas:
I was unable to find "Google Car Home" in the play store, and the .apk like that you posted was unable to install on my nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GreatBigDog:
Do you have settings - security - allow unknown sources checked?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ischi:
:mad:

why is it working with adb? is adb daemon running as uid=0?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] redugas:
Yea, I've downloaded plenty of other.apk files. This down downloads fine and when I hit install I get this response

View attachment 1132198
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xsR1zU:
The DOCK_EVENT action is one of a number of "protected" broadcasts in Android. Only certain UIDs can send them: root (0), system (1000), phone (1001), and shell (2000). Also, certain system processes tagged "persistent" in their manifest can send them.

When using adb shell, the UID is 2000, so that's why it works.

FYI, the authorization code can be found here:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GreatBigDog:
Try downloading the latest gapps and adding the file into the zip under system/ app with the other Google apps then flash the gapps package with cwm. That's what I initially had to do to get it installed. Now, I just keep it backed up with Titanium backup (set to backup system apps) so that I just have to restore after system wipe.
[HTC One X] ThatNerdGuy:
Hey guys. Recently the right side of my stock HOX earphones stopped working. It just randomly stopped working and it's a bit of a pain.

My question is whether I can claim it back on warranty. And if so, can I get a replacement direct by calling HTC Support or do I have to go to a service centre?

To be honest I don't think it's worth the hassle going to a service centre and rather just have it posted to me.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC One X] muamers:
I dont think that the headphones are under warranty, but you can try ... i didnt use them at all ... i buyed a SensationXE for my girlfriend and pic the urBeats and they are great ... maybe you should buy some Beats earphones too. I know they arent cheap, but they worth every penny ;)
[HTC One X] tropical cactus:
I have my urbeats from my XE. HTC probably skived giving them out with one x to keep price down.:p
[HTC One X] Radiognome:
This is a great opportunity to get some new headphones and the best value headphones I have found are the Sennheiser PX 100 - II, in the UK they retail for about £30. I use the flat eq setting and use Volume+ app which gives far better listening levels, through headphones and the speaker.
[HTC One X] Mike46:
Great earphones

Hi

I picked up a pair of beyerdynamic MMX 101 Ie today and so far there are great.

I had the soundmagic mp21 and I thought there were good till the jack plug decided to break, so I decided to get a new pair but spend a little more money and after checking loads of reviews I found the Beyerdynamic mxx101 ie and Wow what a treat these one are....
[HTC One X] anfozy:
Cheap ass lol just invest abit more $$$ and buy better headphones
[HTC One X] boobinator:
OP I know this not what you asked but I'd just recommend buying a good pair of aftermarket headphones, as most headphones that ship with a phone are crap. If you really want to appreciate music a good aftermarket set will be a good idea. Check out the Monster Turbines or the Klipsch Image S4s for your entry into this territory.

Fantom Tempered Glass Screen Protector For Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Be sure to use coupon code "NEXUSFTW" to get $5 off!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Breezer23:
After using the one from Spigen I'd have to pass. Great feel but prone to chipping along the edges.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
So its a glass protector to protect glass?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TeeRom:
Technically, but from what I've seen it has an oleophobic coating like the actual phone screen for fingerprints and such. I'm guessing it would look better than a plastic screen protector as well.

OP: I'll definitely back it when it's live.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jpg71:
I use the Spigen SGP GLAS.t on my Galaxy Note and it works well, but I don't see how glass is going to adhere to the curved surface of the Nexus unless it too is curved. How are you guys addressing that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
It's cheaper and easier than replacing your phones glass if you scratch or break it. Yes, there will be a coating to prevent fingerprints and such and will make cleaning oils off the glass extremely easy.

This question came up before, we tested a few prototypes and the curve is very minimal so we did not have much of a problem addressing it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zathus:
got a question for ya

Is it possible to slightly bevel the edges? Ive seen a few reviews on these and one of the things that I think would drive me crazy is the edges would be higher then the case of the phone. if there beveled below the case, it looks better, feels better and lowers the chances of catching the corner causing chips

just a thought. maybe offer that option as a special order. I know i wouldnt mind paying more for that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThatTechShow:
Really excited to see this! Some videos of prototypes would be awesome.

I do YouTube Reviews mainly for accessories for certain products (Specially for apple) But now that I've switched to Galaxy Nexus as my primary phone.

I'm going to try and review a few cases/accessories here and there too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ttabbal:
Interesting. What model of nexus is it for? Or are the screen layouts similar enough to use the same one on gsm/Verizon/sprint?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
The screen is the same? :confused:

The only thing that changes is the thickness of the phone and CDMA/GSM technology.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jo.sta:
Definitely interested! Whilst I have no problems with clarity using a cheap ebay screen protector, I do miss the oleophobic coating on an unprotected nexus.

If you guys could replicate that, it would be awesome. Also, it's really annoying when some screen protectors get peeled up on the edges due to the curvature of the screen. I hope it doesn't happen to this project. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThatTechShow:
OP when is this project going to be live? Would love to see it in action soon!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
This! After seeing the fact that it would feature the special coating found in the original screen, I want this!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GegeV2:
Would visibility be affected?

:o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
Just submitted it today to Kickstarter for approval, should be live within a few days!

Visibility will not be affected. It's .4mm of ultra-clear glass, it will be like nothing's even there!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
This may be a possibility. When the samples come in I'd need to take a look.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
Definitely interested and will pick this up when it is released :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RedBlueGreen:
what happens if it cracks? It must do something to the screen.

smashed glass on a fragile screen.. hmm...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fr3akeeee:
So if I have a silicon screen, I'd get a silicon case and slap it on top of it to protect the silicon ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jpg71:
The idea is to give you a naked glass screen experience while providing an extra layer of protection that will take the scratches for your screen, since the replaceable glass protector is considerably cheaper to swap out than the screen itself.

At least that's the concept behind a comparable product made for other phones (SGP GLAS.t).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThatTechShow:
From my experiences using the SGP GLASt for the iPhone 4. I dropped it from about 5 ft. I was using the iPhone 4 naked, and it chipped the corner of the Tempered Glass (GLASt) my iPhone was clean and untouched.

So I hope same goes for here. Quality wise, Operation, and Clarity.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] v3rn:
Any chance for a Galaxy S3 version on Kickstarter as well?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
The hardness of the protector will protector your screen and absorb the damage. Now if you drop it from 10 stories high that's a different story, but if you drop it from your pocket you should be fine.

You would remove the PET protector and replace it with the tempered glass one.

The S3 will not need a Kickstarter, it is already in production and we are expecting samples to be in soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cheddaface:
Count me in on this one
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Liskrig:
Yo Dawg! We herrd you like protecting your glass

So we made a glass glass protector for your glass's glass!

Seriously though, I would back this :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
Well played sir...well played.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 2manycells:
I'd definitely buy it. Although my phone is in a case, I always worry about dropping it screen first on a funny angle on a sharp edge or pointed rock. Paranoid indeed, but at the same time I've dropped my Nexus 2 times hard. Thank goodness for Otterbox protection. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
When talking about tempered glass, how do the specs compare to the stock "fortified GNex screen glass re hardness, color, index of refraction, shatter resistance, flexibility, etc? I'm curious about the product, but would have to see it and some tests on it before making assumptions about how it will perform.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arzbhatia:
I want this :o

Too bad nothing like this is available in India..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ronak47:
I'm also in dependant on pricing and delivery to UK.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chrono_Tata:
I'd like to know how well the glass protector would do in covering up scratches. I know many screen protectors can fill in small scratches on the screen so they are pretty much invisible. My naked GN has picked up about 3 scratches so if this can fill them in then it would be perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [IO]ERROR:
Just waiting for the Kickstart to go live to donate. I'd love this for me and my wife's phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
Have not thought about this, would need to look into it for you.

For $5 more we offer international shipping :)

Technically you shouldn't be able to see any fine scratches, won't know until I try a sample out.

I'm hoping for it to go live either tomorrow or Wednesday!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
I wonder what the packaging is going to be like for this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dg4prez:
if it's wet apply, it'll hide them. if it's dry, it won't.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
Why isn't it live yet!?!?!? :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
Well I've got some bad news, Kickstarter declined our project. They said that we do not meet the guidelines, which is extremely vague so we're not sure what made them decline it. I will look into some more alternatives today and let you guys know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
So here's the deal- since we've received a large amount of interest in this we will be getting it produced. We should have a sample in about 10 business days, once we approve it we will have products in stock within a month. So all in all you guys should have screen protectors mid-July. I will be getting this on our website for pre-order. The more orders we get the faster the product will arrive, so it would be much appreciated to spread the word!

There are a few goodies that we have added to the design, can't tell you though until it arrives! I'll post a link to the product page once completed!

Thanks everyone and let me know if you have any questions!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IINexusII:
I want to see some reviews of this before buying, to see if it curves around the display properly, and not bubbling around the sides like nearly all the dry screen protectors
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
Yea so do I.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
I'll post pictures when the samples arrive, and if you guys spread the word to Kellex @ Droid Life we may even be able to send one to him ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bryanlim05:
Just wondering what you are going to do about international orders. You stated that International shipping was going to be an additional $5 however on the website it cost around $35 to Australia
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droidmarc:
how do you adhere the glass?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
I've got this setup now for our International Customers!

The glass will have a 3M adhesive on it that will be strong enough to keep it clinged on but gentle enough to be easily removed if needed to. It will not leave any sticky residue when removed either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dorkboy69:
Pre-order complete. Can't wait to get it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joderme:
I am really curious to see how this will work with the curved glass.

I know SGP had issues with their plastic screen covers not going to the edges due to the curvature.

I have to wonder why SGP hasn't produced their own version for the Gnex yet - perhaps they ran into issues with the curved screen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zbraptorsdr:
I so want this as a replacement for my ghost armor. I have never had the courage to leave a daily driver without a screen protector, but I love the glass feel.

Please post some videos and pics and ill pre-order for sure!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TeeRom:
Just pre-ordered. Can't want to get it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
Interesting. Hopefully we can get actual pics. Nice effort on this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bryanlim05:
Awesome! Just preordered one. Can't wait for it to arrive in Australia =D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
Just pre-ordered, can't wait for this bad boy to come in!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musashiken:
Pre-ordered too. Anything to make my GNex better :p.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mendezj666:
How would this work with an Otterbox defender case? It has its own screen protector but can be removed as a lot of people do so. Im just thinking how to maximize protection and think the combination would offer some of the best.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
It is only .4mm thick, as a comparison, 4 pieces of paper are .35mm thick so it is very thin and shouldn't interfere with your case.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kmakiki:
Preordering this guy now, just too good to pass up!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wnflyer:
I am not a fan of screen protectors, however, this looks like it has potential. I just pre-ordered. I'm looking forward to trying it out.

Randy
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
So I decided to try out a glass protector for another model that we have on my Nexus. I've had it on all day and have had 0 problems. Obviously it's not an exact fit and it is cosmetically different, but gets the point across ;)

.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daewond3r:
^ I would definitely order one of those properly fit to the GN. Me likey.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Southern_mind:
I think I may get one when I get some extra cash I like the look. Can't wait to see the real thing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkfire2024:
It looks too good to be true..

is there a warranty for those with butterfingers like me? :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] clj575:
If you try to remove it will it bend...break..crack etc?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
I think that it's been said earlier that it will remove easily without any problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kvizz:
Maaan i wish SPG made one already cause I can't waitttt! lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
The only warranty would be the 30 day return policy. We can't really do anything if you drop and break it, as that's the whole point of it.

Nope. It's a flexible material and you can bend it like a credit card.

If SPG made it it would take even longer. Plus, if they haven't made it already then it most likely won't be made.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
I'm curious to see how these protectors can full fill what you have mention, do you have any test results on paper or video to show it's hardness against shock.

If it proves to be this good, I may consider.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IINexusII:
i remember one of the XDA members asked them, and they said the aernt able to make one because of the curved nature of the screen.. so im very interested to see how this turns out
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
Very thin glass is able to bend, so it shouldn't be a problem, the photo's in the post above looks promising, even though it not actually the gnexes version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
When we get our samples in I will take a video of some tests.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
I had someone on Rootz ask me about the visibility at different angles, so I took a few pictures for you guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] saniauskis:
Preordered also. Can't wait to get it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vil-2:
Quite expensive, but I will give it a try. I hate plastic screen protections because it alters the screen colors in general. I hope this one will be different.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kaotikb:
Preordered mine. I also gave a heads up to two of my friends and they each ordered one. Cant wait to get it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
So is the glass going to be pre-bent to the contour of the phone or is it going to be flat but still thin enough that it will be able to be bent to the shape of the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
Not 100% sure yet but it will most likely be flat yet flexible enough to lay on the curve of the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dg4prez:
definitely interested in one of these, though i'm waiting for some pics to see how it's gonna work with the curved edges of the screen, thickness, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] magistrateee:
How is the installation compared to SGP's version?

Is it a one shot install or can it be reapplied?

When you get your samples can you post an application video because I am not very good on installing screen protectors but saw some videos of the SGP Glas.t version and it seems easier. I would like to compare these.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heidern:
Great! Will definitely order if it covers the screen in full and lays properly.

Can't wait to see the real sample pic/video!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Enhanced:
Definitely interested. Will be watching closely.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krze:
Very interested. But wanting to see sample pictures/video of actual product on the device before I purchase. Looks very promising though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
The adhesive is reusable, providing that you keep it clean. I've never handled SGP's product(s) so I cannot compare installation however due to the glass being stiff unlike a PET film, it makes aligning it much more easier as it is not sagging down and trying to attach itself during the whole install process. All in all it takes less than 10 seconds to install with perfect alignment.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mackster248:
Requested a review unit. Hopefully they send me one. This definitely looks quite intriguing!
