Sure, as best I can. As far as modifying the frame it took surprisingly less adjustments than I expected.

http://i.imgur.com/HRNlI.jpg is the original frame

http://i.imgur.com/HNRpx.png is the MAO frame with watermarks all over it (sorry, don't have a better picture)

The first thing you'd likely notice is the bottom. The original frame has a gap. This is because that gap is filled by plastic at the bottom of the phone. I figured I had two choices. Cut the new frame, or remove the plastic. I opted to remove that plastic.

The only modifying I had to do to the actual frame since I went that route is where the top two screw holes are. This part is a bit hard to describe to work with me here. Look at the black frame. The screw holes have that grey outline/background. That entire section on both sides is actually recessed in with the original frame, and flush with the black frame. I had to mill that down quite a bit and then re-tap the threads.

Then there is the modification of the phone. Aside from removing the plastic from the bottom I had to trim the top corners quite a bit. If you've ever seen a One S apart you'll see there are metal taps that stock out of the corners where the two screws go through to attach the back of the phone to the frame. I had to remove both of those as well as trim some plastic out of the way. Oddly enough the blue trim that also has the lens cover for the camera also had to have a corner tucked in just a little bit as well.
[HTC One S] MadJoe:
What was under the plastic chin? Anything you might regret covering with aluminum, like an antenna?
[HTC One S] wootroot:
Actually on both devices the bottom part only covers and holds a speaker. The top part covers the antenna. As far as I know only the frame metal. The top and bottom gradient pieces are plastic and I assume the black ones are plastic as well.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
pretty sure the cell antenna is always at the bottom to pass regulatory emissions
[HTC One S] paperecho:
I want to do the same for my One S but the modifications required are beyond my abilitys. If one were to ship a frame to you could you / would you modify it for them?

[HTC One S] dr_rick13:
niiice, where did u get the black housing from?ebay?
[HTC One S] wootroot:
something tells me these are the antennas for radio, bluetooth and wifi

The bottom cover contains a speaker in it and covers one of the microphones and the vibrator. That's all.

[HTC One S] wootroot:
Likely more than it's worth to do it. Doing this to my phone is one thing, if I mess up I'll accept that I have to buy myself a new phone.

If I mess up doing yours, I have to accept that I'll be buying YOU a new phone.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
The arstechnica review and nearly every other smartphone made might bolster my case. Hold your hand over the bottom and watch your signal disappear.
[HTC One S] wootroot:
Sure doesn't, sorry. Still sticking to it being at the top.

Either way, the black cover is plastic as well (just like the gradient blue) so there will be no difference in cell signal.
[HTC One S] dr_rick13:
thanks man

how long did it take you to take apart the phone and put the new housing? and what tools did u use?
[HTC One S] wootroot:
I spent quite some time slowly working at it to make sure I didn't mess up anywhere crucial. I spent probably a good hour or so on it.

I used a file and a dremel (aside from tools to take it apart) mostly.
[HTC One S] lykos:
:] My signal doesn't disappear either.
[HTC One S] TJBunch1228:
+1. Covering the top when in landscape I definitely notice a signal drop though, cell data AND Wi-Fi.
[HTC One S] MadJoe:
I know the two back covers are plastic, I was curious what was under the front plastic piece of the US T-Mobile One S that they put it there in the first place. The one that needed to be removed completely for the MAO frame to fit.

[Galaxy S III General] bass.n:
As noob I needed long time to reach my main rooting objectives which was to run Cifs in my SG3 in order to

(i) access network shares AND

(ii) create symbolic links to these network shares located on my Synology NAS

This is now working and i wanna share my experiences with people who needs step-by-step guide

My objective was to be able to use a music player app (i.e. PowerAMP), while the music are located in my NAS (not in the phone or any external card)

I first began applying the hints of viulian in this thread . It did not work because my firmware (see below) is not supported.

My last successful try included the following steps:

- Re-flash stock ROM/Kernel

- Install CF-Root (includes SuperSU, ClockWorkMod Recovery, CWM Manager)

- Download/Install SuperSU Pro

- Check root in ES file Explorer (seemed to be OK)

- Create BackUp using CWM (into extSdCard)

- Run TriangleAway (to reset flash counter)

- Restore BackUp (to reset device status to normal)

- Install app Mobile ODIN Pro

- Download & flash SiyahKernel (incl. adbd insecure & Cifs Module) using Mobile ODIN Pro. Now I can see cifs.ko under /lib/modules/

- Install CifsManager

- Install BusyBox using app BusyBox Pro (i don't know if this step was really necessary for my purpose ?)

Furthermore i create a new share entry in CifsManager with these details

- Share path = 192.168.178.20/music

- Mount Point = /mnt/extSdCard/music/cifs

- User name = xxxxxx

- Password = yyyyyy

Hint: the default folder in CifsManager setting for the cifs.ko location is /system/lib/modules/ . You must change this to /lib/modules/. This is the folder used by Siyah kernel installation

Now i could mount the shares via CifsManager. Then i got a green point above right. A click on the mount entry will open folder /mnt/cifs/music in ES file explorer. From now on even the SG3 standard file explorer will show you the NAS music files under the folder /mnt/extSdCard/music/cifs.

Some info about my SG3

- Baseband Version: I9300XXLF5

- Bild Number: IMM76D.I9300XXALF06

- Kernel Version: 3.0.36.Siyah-s3-v1.3.8a

Good luck trying !!!!
[Galaxy S III General] matthelm:
Does this still work for you? I just got a new tablet, and can't get Poweramp to see anything but the onboard flash. Arg, wish they'd left the library requester alone!

The low memory of the older phones, impeding the development of new roms.

Almost every application should provide alternative resources to support specific device configurations. In apk has alternative drawable resources for different screen densities and alternative string resources for different languages. At runtime, Android detects the current device configuration and loads the appropriate resources for your application.

The apkclean removes unused resources for the device

Please look at the project and testing if possible :good:

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkrull:
I have two Windows Phones: one original Samsung Focus and on Nokia Lumia 900. Both phones have current updates.

Only the Lumia will discover a Braven 650 speaker and even then it will not use the microphone from the Braven. It can play over the speaker but when a call is incoming it disconnects.

Only the Lumia will discover a 2010 Land Rover LR4. But the Lumia will not receive or make calls over the car microphone and speaker unless a headphone is plugged into the phone. Obviously this is the opposite of what I would expect.

Anyone have a Land Rover connecting well on a Windows Phone?

Anyone have a Braven speaker working on a Windows Phone?

Any guesses as to what is going on?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkrull:
Land Rover problem is specific to the 900...

[Nokia Lumia 900] TheChozen:
Same version of "Tango" as before the update (v7.10.8773.98) but the firmware is now 2175.2101.8779.12201

I received a replacement 900 straight from Nokia and it has 8779.8 as OS and 2175.2307.8779.122222 as firmware.

I am with Rogers and the phone has the Rogers boot up logo.

I tested flip to silence today and it worked. Purple hue was also fixed. (main reason I requested a solution and a replac3ment)

I guess the update is rolling out now for the rest.

The marketplace also has a new logo which is the Nokia branded one.
[Nokia Lumia 900] aquanaut88:
With the updates, you may want to keep your eyes out for Nokia's Network Settings app. A moderator on the WP group of Nokia's Support Forums reported it was schedule to be released wk30 (this week) for North America. Possible it may show itself to updated devices first.

[Nokia Lumia 900] tfn:
Got it on my Uk unbranded Lumia 900,

Its basically a minor Nokia Update and for the Lumia 900 and the other models

After updating Nokia Lumia 900, the firmware revision number became 2175.2101.8779.12201

Here’s the changelog according to Nokia Connects.

- Lumia 900 version 2175.2101.8779.12201: Enhanced sensitivity for proximity sensor performance and improvement to your phone’s screen colours in low light conditions

- Lumia 710 version 1600.3031.8779.12180: Internet sharing (Wi-Fi Hotspot) — Share your phone’s internet connection over Wi-Fi with up to five other devices or computers and Flip to silence — Silence incoming calls by turning your phone face down.

- Lumia 610 version 1066.0000.8779.12201: Enhanced sensitivity for proximity sensor performance and improved sound level for alarm tone during voice calls.
[Nokia Lumia 900] jimski:
My guess is with the 8779 reference in the Firmware, you need to have Tango installed before this will drop to your phone. So we AT&T folks are still waiting.

Are those all the changes? Have they still not fixed the volume issues because that's ridiculous and I'm fed up of being deafened by the alarm every morning.

ETA: No, not hey haven't fixed the volume issues. Poor form Nokia.
[Nokia Lumia 900] efektos:
What volume issue? :eek:
[Nokia Lumia 900] danmoz98:
The volume for the alarm doesn't go any lower than 11. Basically, if you set the alarm at 2 (or anything else below 11) it's still the same as it would be at 11.

Try it with 'alarm 1'. Then try lowering the volume. 1-11 are the same and above 11 it gets louder. So your options for the alarm are silence, LOUD and LOUDER. I only want to wake myself int he morning, not the entire street! Apparently this was an issue with the Lumia 800 and was promptly fixed.

but this dimond icon is there all the time, I think. so does it mean the some application is contineously using hte GPS, battery drainage?

[Nokia Lumia 900] efektos:
I've noticed this diamond-shaped icon today as well, when I downloaded and installed the LinkedIn app... Didn't gave it too much thought though, I thought it was something that the LinkedIn app brought - and not coming from the OS itself.
[Nokia Lumia 900] firehawk_1:
yes, the diamond icon is my location being used from apps.

The problem I found with an update, and it is quite a flaw:

the screen sensitivity is AWFUL! it is NOT smooth at all. its very jerky and you do not get that smooth scroll action you do before the update. it has totally broken user experience!

how has it improved? it hasnt.... its broken!

they still need to fix the sound problems where the sound is pretty loud even if it is at volume #1.
[Nokia Lumia 900] efektos:
TBH I share with you that feeling about the scrolling has been changed - it now feels more "stiff", and scrolling through bigger pages (such as the contacts list) became quite annoying... I was looking to see if the update maybe added an option to tune the screen's sensitivity, but there is no sign for an option like that :(
[Nokia Lumia 900] rafter_01:

absolute BS.. my OS version is still 8773.98 and no improvements to the sh*tty camera..

Correct.

Thats fine too, as this update did not intend on improving/changing anything in the camera...
[Nokia Lumia 900] rafter_01:
what was the update for then?

thanks
[Nokia Lumia 900] tabraoui:
Here's a small update:

I plugged my Lumia with a USB and the scrolling became rigid (just like you mentioned).

However, when I plugged it out, restarted it... it was back to normal again.

Try a soft reset (hold power for 10 seconds)... It might do the trick

Uh so you commented without even bothering to read the thread? :confused:

Next time just read it before being so quick to judge.

i actually compared m Lumia 900 camera with a friends SGS3, no match. The samsung has a miles better camera.

The quality of the lumia 900 is pretty poor which is quite surprising. Not sure if its just my phone but i'm sure other people are unimpressed with the lumia 900 camera.

My hardware revision is: 112.1914.2.0

Phone is an unlocked SmarTone from Hong Kong RM-823

I haven't published any of my indoor shots because I was mostly just experimenting to see if the wretched pink burn was gone from low level, non-flash (thank God it is)

This weekend I'm going to try to wring this out a bit more with some macro and indoor photos.

To me this is vastly ahead of the camera I had in the Lumia 800. The various updates brought that one to passable shots, but this one seems to be very clean..

Good luck!

Can you try and upload here a picture you took with your Lumia? I want to see what you mean when you say the pictures are ****ty... Please, try your best to make the photo a good one (without editing it of course), i.e. don't take the picture without a proper focus or take it in a room which is poorly lit. Try to take a random scenery picture, like your garden, your street in the noon or something similar. You can use whichever camera settings you want - maybe you're just a bad photographer (like me) :p

[Nokia Lumia 900] zabihjan:
what are you ppl on about?

the touch screen is far better and smoother than before

the proximity sensor works as it should.

scrolling through contacts (1245 contacts) is a breeeze

re camera in 900, it is no match for my galaxy s2 and my friends iphone4s... this is not important what is important is that it feels good to hold lumia 900, looks good and performs better for daily usage.

i am just unhappy with all the hype for camera extra it turned out to be waste of time

Bluetooth doesnt stay connected and doesnt auto connect after the update
[Nokia Lumia 900] apollo15rover:
Guess I got lucky with Bluetooth..900 is working well but the 800 was garbage.

Finally tried indoor and macro both under low light. Indoor tried with auto settings and not too thrilled. Will try again with ISO locked to 100. Macro I did have it locked. Focuses much better than my Lumia 800.

Rafter..it looks like your camera is metered to the dark region of the photo so everything else gets overexposed and washed out. Rather than the side button, tap the screen on a lighter part of the frame or the sky and see what happens

---------- Post added at 07:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 AM ----------

Back to Bluetooth..with all the comments re both Lumia 800 & 900, I think Nokia unfortunately is using bad hardware here so it's hit or miss each phone. As I mentioned before my Lumia 800 was a total miss; but the 900 BT is flawless. And most 800 owners I've talked with had zero problems w/ BT. Go figure. If you have warranty, I'd exercise it with a vengeance and keep them exchanging until you have a phone with the good hardware set. If you have to rely on BT, that flaw can become infuriating.

Try this:

1.Connect your Windows Phone to a PC and launch the Zune software

2.Click on Settings/Update. Allow the software to tell you whether an update is available. If so, skip this guide. If not continue to the next step.

3.Click the check for update button again, and this time immediately disconnect your computer from the internet. Do this by pulling the Ethernet cable, disabling Wi-Fi, etc.

4.Wait 30 seconds or so and you should receive a notification that an update is available.

5.Now reconnect to the internet and continue with the update process through the Zune software

Note: it might need a couple of trials before it works
