We've been talking about this for eighteen pages on the international forum. There's also a thread on the SGS3 forum with owners having the same issue. It appears GG2 is less scratch resistant than GG1. I don't normally use a screen protector but am now after reading people's experiences.

Yes it will scratch. I scratched mine with my wedding ring in 2 places already. Although they are on the sides and not very noticeable it can happen. I know that the wet application screen protectors do a good job at hiding the scratches like Zagg or Skinomi. I had a Zagg on mine but took it off because I didn't like the feel of it but I couldn't see the scratches with it on. I put a Skinomi on my wife's gs2 and it also covered up the scratches. I think I'm going to try the XOskin this time around for my one x. I heard the were pretty good protectors.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:

"The 4.7-inch 720p Super LCD 2 display is

protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 2

, which is the new version that's thinner and stronger. We first saw the Gorilla Glass 2 back at CES 2012, though the glass manufacturer did not reveal then which handsets will be featuring the technology. HTC also told us that the One X features optical lamination, a process through which the screen ends up laminated to the glass, resulting in better viewing angles. We found this to be true, and having the screen so close to the glass makes it appear brighter and more visible under sunlight."

What do you guys do to these phones? I have an aria and inspire. I am a truck driver. I have dropped the phones a time or two. I have had them jump out of the clamp type mount on rough roads. I have yet to crack or scratch a screen. I think there are a lot of very careless smartphone owners out there. I hear a lot of damage issues especially with gorilla glass. It does not sound like gg is any better than anything else.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] seh6183:
I've read from numerous sources that they debunked the GG2 myth and that it's gg1. I have no links to support this lol

GsmArena shows we (and International) have GG1 and that the SIII has GG2.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
The HTC One X is shaping up to take point as the company’s new flagship. The leaked official specifications confirm the rumors of an NVIDIA Tegra 3 chipset doing the heavy lifting inside the One X with a 1.5GHz quad-core processor. The second generation Super LCD of HD resolution (1280 x 720 pixels) at the front measures 4.7" and is

protected by a layer of Gorilla Glass 2.

The One X should have 1GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. There's no microSD slot available, but HTC will try and make up for that by providing 25GB of Dropbox online storage for two years for free.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:
The specs page shows GG1. Typos exist and bios hardly get edited.

Example: it was 23gb on Dropbox.

Honestly I couldn't care less if it's one or two. My phones don't get scratches I don't know what you guys are doing to them..

Never used screen protector, never put keys in the same pocket, never had any scratches....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] blaine.hale:
My HOX fell out of my pocket when I was changing clothes, so about 6 inches from the hardwood AT MOST. My best guess is that it landed screen down on some grit because there is one big scuff and I put my fingernail in easily and one long scratch.

I've seriously never scratched an android phone before this and I've dropped them in the past a bit.

I'm going to try some cerium oxide to possibly buff it out a bit because it's really noticeable and quite the eye soar.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] roscoejackson:
NEVER buff your 6 inch hardwood with cerium oxide. Prone to chafing. Try astro glide.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] neocryte:
I found an inch-long scratch on my screen a few days ago. No idea how it happened, as I am very careful with the phone. I hate screen protectors, but I ended up putting one on (from bestskinsever). It actually works quite well, and the screen protector made the scratch invisible, which is pretty cool.

I highly recommend bestskinsever. The body skin, and now the screen protector as well, work very well for me - couldn't be happier. Better than any case (although of course you sacrifice drop protection).

Does anyone want to post pics of the scratches on their phones? Maybe seeing the pattern in which these scratches appear can shed light on how they are caused.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:
I've had my phone for almost two months with gentle to moderate use and I have a cat. Not a scratch or buff to speak of.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
This has been the toughest display out of any phone I've had yet. It's the first phone where I don't use a screen protector on it. No scratches.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
I thought so too. The scratches people are talking about (mostly) are hairline scratches. I looked at my display at an angle in bright sunlight and I could see one about 1/3" long and I take really good care of my phone. That's when I put a screen protector on. What happens to people individually is a big YMMV. But if you ever intend to resell your phone a scratched display is the kiss of death in terms of what you'll get for it. I saw fewer scratched screen posts in eleven months on the i9100 forum than I've seen in the One X and SGS3 forums in the past couple of weeks. So something's definitely different.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Stay Frosty:
I have two hairline scratches at the very top of the screen. Very tiny, only visible under the correct lighting. No idea how they got there since I am OCD with my phone.

In comparison, I had a GSII since release date and that screen is still flawless.

Just remember, all it takes is a grain of sand to scratch gorilla glass.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
Can you guys get a picture of a hairline scratch?

I didn't pay for a plastic screen. Better yet, learn to take care of a 600 dollar phone. Better practice.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
I've noticed that screen protectors and cases don't let the heat escape on this phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:
That doesn't make any sense. There are no vents, so the heat escaping is the same. It's diffusing through the plastic just the same as it goes through the actual phones plastic.

Not sure if you understand the concept of the hardness of certain materials. Did you take Chem? Physics? Something that is physically harder than another thing can scratch it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] c5satellite2:
Yes, I took a lot of chem and physics. I went to a top engineering school. Doesn't change reality guy. If you don't believe me, go try it! Everything on paper looks great, but doesn't always translate to the non vacuum real world we live in.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NJGSII:
Never had a scratch (that was at least noticeable) on my screen from day one. However the screen is pretty cracked after I dropped it screen first on some side walk last week. Gorilla Glass isn't shatter resistant though and I have a replacement coming soon so no *****in there.

the car dock is perfect fit but the desktop dock is little tight but still fits. The infuse dock has speaker build in but when I dock my galaxy 3 and play music, music comes out of phone speaker, not the dock speaker. How can I enable the desktop dock speaker? The manual says I need to down load samsung desk home from app store but I can't find such app.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] socalwrx:
there's actually a setting in the phone itself. forget where, but Im sure you can find it ;)

You won't be able to find the app mostly likely because of who you have your service with. You can search for it on google play, using the web browser, but you still can't install it.

There is an option in the dock settings to control where the audio outputs to. Select "settings" and then select "dock".

Hi guys, got my s3 weeks back n now its rooted via chainfire method, now im in the midst of confusion about what kernel/rom to flash.

1 - Do I need to always flash both kernel and rom ?

2 - Can i just flash stable kernel but leaving the rom as stock ?

3 - via versa to question 2 ?

4 - Do i need to reset factory each time flashing Rom/Kernel ?

5 - Will i loose my apps/files/sd files/music each time flashing rom/kernel ?

THanks!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
If you flash a rom it will flash a kernel so you do not always need to flash both.

Yes.

Yes.

If you want the best experience possible it is always best to factory reset between each ROM. Not necessary between kernels.

Your apps are deleted from the phone as well as texts and emails when you factory reset. However, your apps are all tied to your Play account so you can just redownload them or you can use an app like titanium backup to backup your apps and SMS backup and restore to restore your texts. Your SD card and phone internal storage will never be deleted.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tingtan:
1. Not necessarily, you can selective flash kernel, ROM or/and mods.

2. Yes. Keep in mind, not all kernels work on all ROM, read before you flash.

3. Presumably yes but almost all ROMs come with kernel. Some ROMs are tightly integrated with kernel (pre-set kernel for best user experience and battery saving).

4. If you using the same base (or incremental upgrade ROM), you don't need to wipe. Full wipe maybe necessary if you experience problem as you upgrade ROM.

5. CWM recovery usually did not erase /sdcard data even in data wipe (check recovery post), in full wipe, you may need to backup your apps & data (I use Titanium Backup).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] P1Tater:
Just a quick question. When I had a winmo device, after we flashed a rom we had a program that we could add cab (winmo version of apk) files to and it would install those apps to our phones all at one time. I know there is titanium backup that will install the apps but sometimes that causes issues with the rooms in some of the new releases. Does anyone know of a app that will do something like what I am speaking of or am I on my own with this one? I know I can write scripts to do this but was looking for something a little easier.

If this has already been discussed then please ignore my request. I very seldom use my laptop to visit xda and the search function via the xda app is not really user friendly if you know what I mean.

Thanks in advance for any advice! :o

Edit: created a flshable zip with my apk's and everything works flawless. Thanks to those who helped.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
TiBU can do a batch restore, but don't restore any system apps or data.

A. *.apk file is a self-installing application, so you don't need another application to extract and install.

Can you share any specifics?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] P1Tater:
I know its a self installing app. What I'm wondering is there a batch file installer for say 20+ apps to be installed at one time. Instead of installing 20+ apps one at a time. Does that clarify? In winmo devices a cab file is almost identical to a apk file for android. In winmo devices after we flashed a rom and had set everything up, we could run a program that would install all of our apps in one simple click. Hope this clarifies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] P1Tater:
Yes, that works as well but I don't see an option to install all of the apps in one step.

I'll keep looking or maybe just break down and create a script.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
The paid version of TiBU installs all the *.apk files stored as a backup.

After a rom flash I go to the market and install TiBU and the paid key, select batch restore and 49 apps are installed in minutes.

Maybe you used the free version and installed one-by-one? A few restores convinced me to upgrade.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] P1Tater:
Shashimi was one of them. Another really never had a name. It was a script that devs put in their rom that looked for a text file on the SD card that had a list of cab files in it. If it was listed in the text file, it was installed directly after the rom was installed. Just the 2 that I can think of right now. The later was the better of the 2 in my book. It was much simpler to use.
