Sorry, but i wrote, get rid of all sound improvments. I have few things to compare, and it sounds way better than before.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] theXperiance:
I know many have too but mine dropped screen first. And guess what happened. It shattered. Woops, typo, I mean I shattered with happiness because it didn't break., though I do have very ugly scratches or the white plastic right on top of the glass. I have a barely there kijj case so no scratches on the sides :D

Just assuring you that out phone is much more stronger than the s3 :)

I dropped it accidentally from about 1.6 metres into bricks, SCREEN LAYING FLAT! therefore I thought my xs screen was done for.

Though I heard the bottom signal thingy is poorly built (oh yeah a few odd marks there thanks to the drop) ... Lucky mine dropped from the top first

Also have scratches on my screen protector which I'll be replacing
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pruikki:
Good thing indeed! We uses case so it shall protect u know!

good info. thread closed?

I'm sorry about that:( I know how it is:(

Can you provide some pics of damages? You know.. For science;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SnowOokami:
that's good to hear!

I dropped my HTC a few times in clubs and it never broke down :-) I dropped some samsung phones as well.. they all died within a week after the drop :rolleyes:

Hopefully I won't drop my SXS ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Why So Serious?:
My XS dropped out of my pocket whilst I was sitting on concrete... Fell less than 10cm and I have a nasty chip in the bottom part... That bit definitely isnt well built.

However the phone did then land screen down on some loose stones and there wasnt even a scratch :-)

Anyone know if you can replace the bottom part?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SnowOokami:
yes you can:

thanks a lot

can we reuse the bottom cap once we remove it?

in that disassemble xperia_s_wi.pdf guide they have mentioned something like this>

Remove the Cover Bottom with your fingers.

Scrap! Not to be reused!

but i want to know can we reuse it?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adsada arc:
I saw that today as well and was about to ask. Can anyone clarify?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kekkle:
One side of mine removed easily. The other not so much. But seeing as it's advised not to reuse. I'm now wondering what to do too.
[HTC Sensation] JakeGwilliam:
Hello there, I have a HTC Sensation Z710e which is from Vodafone and has all their branding and sim card locking stuff, lovely. I want to be able to take this phone and make it look like an ordinary unlocked phone so I can use whatever sim card I would like and also without the Vodafone branding on the device, I am a little scared about rooting my device and flashing new radios and ROMs :P A few months ago I received the update for ICS if that is of any use to anyone. If anyone has any good ideas on how I can completely make my phone completely stock it would be so appreciated. :)

Thank you

Jake :)
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

The link in my signature will show you several guides to either s-off,or flash custom ROMS,whilst still s-on.

There is also a link for flashing a RUU to get stock.

Read,read read.

[HTC Sensation] blackcell1:
There's methods to unlocked your phone for free on the dev section. But your better of paying £15 to get it unlocked online. As for debranding your sensation just search xda for debranding sensation, or just root it and install a custom Rom.
[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:
Why go and pay £15 pounds when he can do it for free? After s-off he only needs to run the diagfile from the bootloader. Should give supercid as well for free and minimum hassle :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mike208:
Not sure if this should go in the Q&A or accessories forum. But I am asking a question, so I will post here and a mod can move it if need be.

My girlfriend and I both have the note. I did not like any of the cases at the AT&T store, so I went with a screen protector for now. She chose a pink backplate with a flip to cover the front of the phone and no screen protector. She ran without screen protector on her evo for a while with no issues, but usually carried it in a holster style case that covered the entire phone when not in use. I generally carry my phone in my front pants pocket with nothing else in the pocket.

I've noticed that her screen looks so much clearer and more vibrant then mine. And while I feel a little scared of not using a screen protector, I am jealous of her screen every time I see it. Now mine doesn't look bad really, hers just looks better.

It got me wondering how everyone else protects their screen. Please vote in the poll and feel free to comment as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mad383Max:
I Use the flip cover with replacement back. No issues whatsoever. Carry it in front pocket sometimes with change or keys. I Try not to make that a habit though. Only issue i have is the lower left hand corner is starting to tattered a little bit.

Cosmo D from outer space!

I came to rock the human race!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] phailyoor:
I didn't get a flip case because it won't really protect the phone from slips and falls. Considering that the screen is in the most danger when being used, a flip case will also be useless then.

I would also avoid screen protectors because they generally look like crap.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cougar11:
Nekkid as well..just can't cover up something so elegant n beautiful! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
I personally refuse to not use a screen protector. So, I'm using a screen protector, extended battery and an aluminum bumper.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Naked for the win. I have a tpu case for rough situations, but it's rarely on my phone. I also have the flip cover but don't use it much. Always been a fan of using my phones naked.

As for screen protectors, I've never used them much because the naked glass feels best.I just make sure to give my phones a pocket of their own. I do end up with tiny scratches over time, but not enough to bug me. I also upgrade once a year using family members' upgrades, so not many scratches accumulate anyways.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
No screen protection on mine. I don't like the way they feel. The only thing I changed was I cut apart the flip case that came free with the phone and replaced the back so it wouldn't be so slippery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mike208:
You guys are making me want to go nekkid too, but its scary lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Go for it! Just don't blame me if you break your screen, haha. Other than the screen breaking, which is still a worry even with a case and screen protector, you'll come to realize scratched plastic isn't the end of the world.

I like using phones bare as they were designed. I compare it to sex...feels a lot better without protection but there's always that increased risk...haha =]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] n00b1269:
Zagg screen protector, which was terrible at first but after a month or two the spent and it got along. And a speck case black
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mike208:
I'm not worried about breaking the screen, I am worried about scratching the glass. The way my luck works, I could drop my phone 3 feet onto an asphalt parking lot and have the screen not break, but somehow accidentally kick it and send it skidding face down across the parking lot. I use this analogy because I actually did this with a pair of prescription sunglasses lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] xxBrun0xx:
Hey, I've been having this same delema. Bought the att screen protector, which kills quality. Other than the fear of scratching the screen, I hate how much it picks up finger prints. If I could get a protector that didn't pick up fingerprints and kept the clarity of naked, I'd do that for sure.

Also, how tough is it to actually scratch the screen? I know gorilla glass is sometimes really good and sometimes not, depending on the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
Had this phone since it came out and haven't scratched it yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Depends. How careful are you with your phones/are you planning on reselling your note when you move on to your next phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] xxBrun0xx:
Pretty careful, and yes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] triumvirant:
I came from an iPhone 3GS with an otter box defender, to an ATRIX 4G with an otter box defender...to this beast. I wanted a case to protect it, but didn't like the way it made the phone feel. I also had an issue with the anti-glare screen protector that ATT pushes in their stores, as they SEVERELY decrease image quality on the screens. I ended up going with some very inexpensive (3 for $5) crystal clear protectors from Amazon. 4 months later and i'm still on the first one with just a few tiny scuffs on the protector. My backplate is beat all to hell, but the rest of the phone (i.e, the screen) is mint.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayRokk:
Go naked but just be careful with the spen it can do damage, little scratches.(barely visible)

My back plate is as good as new and I've had the Note for a while now..

Dang what are you guys doing?? Lol

I only have the metal bumpers installed so its not like its being protected haha
[General Questions and Answers] Thatgrass:
Hey guys,

Since my WINDOWS pc can't download SDK files, I need someone who can upload them for me, so I can finally use the SDK. Please every single file that you get and every file that you can download with SDK manager; Everything that you can get, included Android 4.1 stuff, (Jellybean).

It would be superawesome if someone would do this for me :)

I will help you (the one who helps me) with everything I can!

I hope someone will do it...

Thanks in ADVANCED!!!!! :)

Im not a n00b kind of guy, and I am sure I tried everything else, this is the only way it will be possible for me on this PC ;)
[General Questions and Answers] IRX120:
I understand I can't upload them rite now but try completely removeing everything from your PC to do with android even The hidden files and retry. I'd love to upload them for you but my android directory is well over 1gb and my upload speed is around 50kbps. Just keep trying maby you'll get it to work

Also what kind of PC are u using like specs

UPDATE

Ok, forget my last 2 posts, this one will contain everything:

1. BIG THANKS TO SAFARIKING AND TO QUANTUMFOAM! For wanting to upload the SDK files for me and for all the help with all random things! :D I hope it will work, otherwise I have to continue to 2..

2. If 1. doesnt work I will use virtual box and install Ubuntu. But a few questions about this installation:

- Can it cause damage to my PC?

- Is it ultra slow?

3. I have found all the pc specs:

- Windows Vista Home Premium 32 BIT

- 4 GB of RAM

- Intel dual CPU @2.20 GHz

- PC based on x86 is the system type?

- 298 GB of storage --> 200 GB used

I think that are all important specs...

Question about specs:

- Are these good to use virtualbox?

Please answer this questions, and post your opinion about what OS I should install.

Thanks in advanced!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Malarie:
Or should i just wait for google to release the image on yakju here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

I currently have AOKP MS 4 and Franco Kernel, I am guessing i wont be receiving OTA?

nevermind. I have found a downloadable link on Koushs Clockwork Mod. Its installing Right now. :)

You can flash any of the GSM firmwares you want.

You will not receive and be able to apply the OTA unless you're on an official yakju/takju release from Google, or a yakju** build from Samsung (which will receive it later, presumably).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jeff_roey:
I'm having trouble rooting after pulling the oTA this morning. I tried fourdifferent methods, all of which have worked before with leaks as well as with a side loaded install (different Maxx). Put USB debiggin on and tried each of these both as mass storage and MTP:

Matt's Utility 1.7

ROOT-ICS Exploit (can't find the link in dev right now)

Eternity Project's Method: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1710871

Doomlord's Method: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1341578

In all cases, the daemons just wait for the device - they never see it. In mass storage mode, I'm seeing the drive pops up on Windows so I know I'm connecting using the stock USB cord.

Any suggestions?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Soopafly Incredible:
I'd be interested in knowing as well...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seanzol:
For the Eternity Project method, you have to enable Mock Locations under developer options (and be in MTP mode), not just USB debugging.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jeff_roey:
Yes, went back and tried that. Thanks. Still no luck though. Can't figure it out. It's like the scripts aren't able to find the phone. I can't imagine that me and soopafly are the only ones dealing with this since the OTA. Are there others out there that haven't been able to re-root?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
Hi!

Take a look on others users problems they faced in eternityproject easyrootics.

You may face problems with other devices drivers like htc sync, kies, motocast... disable those and check you got adb working by typing

adb devices

I your root folder from windows terminal.

cheers
[Motorola Droid RAZR] baune7:
did you make sure you have the correct drivers installed? Not just plugging it in to USB and windows says drivers are installed.. that's not it. You have to make sure you install the correct 32 or 64 bit drivers (included in "Matt's Utility). Extract them, and double click to run the installation. Then try Matt's utility again.

I have only used M's U, not the other methods on both a 32 bit computer, and a 64 bit puter and haven't had any problems whatsoever. Good luck.

Edit: Just thought of this as I was re-reading the thread, try a different USB port. Some of my other USB stuff only works in the port it was installed in. Also, I'm sure you know, but to find out if you're 32 or 64 bit, go to "start" right click on "my computer", then properties. Install the drivers that are included in the extracted Matt's Utility 1.7 folder. Make sure USB debugging is enabled, USB mass storage on your phone. It'll re-boot 3-4 times during the rooting process.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MyEntityRemains:
Did you unzip Matt's utility into a new folder?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
Go to my thread op and read the instructions

Cheers
[Motorola Droid RAZR] n8w:
I had the same issue when I side loaded. Drivers were updated and all was well. Try plugging the phone in in charge only mode. I was complicating the process by trying to do it in fastboot. I was informed to just plug it in, hit 3 and let Matt's utility do it's thing. And it did.

Setting my USB mode to connect as a camera (PTP) did it!

I had the Moto Drivers from Matt's Utility 1.7 already installed (driver ver 5.7.0) and based on advice from other posts in this string, I went ahead and uninstalled them and reinstalled them just to be safe. Root attempts after doing that using the methods I discussed in my OP still were unsuccessful.

After seeing newowner's post, I went ahead and chose camera mode for the USB Computer Connection (settings -> storage -> press the menu key and choose Camera (PTP) and windows installed additional devices: USB Composite Device, DROID RAZR, and Mot Composite ADB Interface. I'm guessing the ADB Interface on was the one I was missing before.

Okay, I'm rooted and I'm heading back through this string with my bag O'Thanks to all of you.

[Android General] bebeloneovvl:
I remember back in the days, when the phones actually were used for phone calls and maybe couple of texts. I'm not that old school, at least at she 30, I still consider myself pretty young. Growing up, racing cars was my passion. After becoming an adult, getting married and having kids, everything changed for me. Couldn't spend the amount of cash I used to on cars. So I decided to sell my car. And with having experience only on couple flip phones, including the EXE, I decided to order a blackberry Curve 8330. I stated getting interest in the tweaking and messing with it. Updating firmwares was about the most exciting thing I was doing back them. One day I walked in a radio shack store, and there it was, the HTC HD2. Immediately feel in love with the big screen and design. It was love at first sight. Being a windows phone didn't matter at the time, since I was not familiar with the Android world, so I didn't know better. Then, came across XDA, and everything changed. Started reading about Android and the goodies that it had, and found out that there was a way to boot Android on my device from the as card. Had the first taste, and never looked back. Currently own a Samsung galaxy Note, running ICS 4.0.4, and I'm loving it.

That's the way I was introduced to this amazing world, with all this amazing people, willing to sacrifice time with the family and restless nights cooking awesome software for people that they not even know, and many times aren't even grateful of their job. Thanks Android, for giving me a great opportunity of interacting with awesome and brilliant people. And grateful for this great hobby.

[Android General] rogsoccerman:
June 2010 I got the Motorola backflip I feel in love with Android but after the first 6 months the processor at 528 mhz was unbearably slow. The great devs created cm7 for it which just barley made it bearable to wait until February when my contract was up. I had no problems moving from the 3.1in screen to the 5.2 in screen on the note. I still think having the keyboard on the back than flipping backwards is the best design for a phone with a keyboard.
