But what about skinomi?

Try GhostArmor. The best
[HTC One S] SuperDave81:
Skinomis are the ****. I have then on all my devices. Just rtfm and apply it right.

[HTC One S] DouglasK:
I gotta second that... Ghost armor is very good... Better than Zagg invisible shield.

[HTC One S] xxquicksh0txx:
Yup, I tried Zagg just because I got their headphones for $10 if I bought the shield. I took it off after a week, the orange peel affect is horrific. I also noticed it was a lot thinner than Ghost Armor, not sure if that's matters in normal situations though.. lol
[HTC One S] veehexx:
I've just purchased the BestSkinEver screen-only protector.

had the full phone BSE skin on my N1, and couldn't fault the protection.

It did peel on the corner pieces, which is why I've gone for the screen-only one this time.
[HTC One S] Janderson88:
Hey y'all, noob here, just got my One S the other day, and just got my Diztronic case from Amazon today, love it! Those screen protectors that come with it are crap tho, and was looking into the Ghost Armor. I've had unpleasant results with the Zagg shields in the past, and the Ghost Armor seems to be pretty popular.

One other question, is anyone using the full-body GA skin in addition to a regular case, such as the Diztronic or Incipio? Just curious. Thanks!
[HTC One S] xxquicksh0txx:
I've never had the ghost armor full body, but I did had zagg full body and it didn't peel up. Once you let it dry it sticks pretty well, just don't put a case on it for at least 24 hours maybe more to let it dry.

I'd imagine Ghost Armor would be better, their screen protector is soooo much better than Zagg's.

I actually need to get a replacement from Ghost Armor, for some reason the bottom part keeps wanting to come up.
[HTC One S] noobic:
I´am using the antireflex protector from mumbi and i´am very happy with it. Feels good and looks really pretty.
[HTC One S] htcsensation:
how it looks GhostArmor Clear for the back ? any pic ?
[HTC One S] dorezen:
i'm surprised no one mentioned htc's own screen protector for the one s. there are a few sellers on ebay from uk selling them. i picked up a couple awhile ago for about USD$9 shipped.
[HTC One S] Janderson88:
Got my Ghost Armor (screen only) today, and just applied it. Took 2 tries, but I nailed it on the second attempt, got it perfectly lined up. I've been going back with the little squeegee and squishing out some of the smaller little bubbles over the last hour or so, and as long as you get the squeegee wet, it works pretty well to smooth out the little guys. So far, I like it a lot, doesn't have that rubbery-drag feel of the Zagg I had on my G2, or the orange peel. I'll report back in a day or so to update.
[HTC One S] mirceax:
krusell

I got a KRUSELL screen film for my one S a couple of days ago and I'm thrilled with it. It is completely transparent and does not affect in any way the brightness and colors, and it doesn't have that squeaky feel.

I had an invisible shield on my previous Desire for about 8 months, it's good if you are a frequent phone dropper but if not it makes your screen uglier, it's like heaving sweat on it all the time and also affects the touch sensitivity.

All in all, would definetly recommend the Krusell.
[HTC One S] Janderson88:
Alright, so I made it about 5 days, and I think I'm ditching the screen protector. Yes, the peace of mind of the added protection is nice, but to be honest, I'm not really worried about it enough to keep this. I had my HTC G2 for almost 2 years, which didn't even have Gorilla Glass, and by the time I sold it, it had ONE hardly noticeable scratch in the top-left corner of the screen.

The Ghost Armor goes on relatively simple enough, but in 3 applications, I've found it impossible to keep at minimum 2-3 specks of dust out from under it when I go to smooth it down, which create a bubble you CANNOT get rid of, and I can feel them under my fingertips when scrolling around on the screen. For someone as anal as myself when it comes to things like this, these make my head want to explode. I'm also noticing around the edge of the film (which doesn't extend all the way to the edges of the screen, and I find this to be really lame), it's gathering dust and finger... gunk. Finally, and I might be alone in this, but I think it takes the sharpness of the display away. Not to a hugely noticeable amount, but it's there, and it bugs the hell out of me.
[HTC One S] Spastic909:
Any nice cases that are comparable to outerbox but with a lens protector?
[HTC One S] yeti-roots:
I tried the 'Greatshield AG' (product title on Amazon below, can't link since I'm newb.) - 3 pack for like $7.

Sucks. Feels and performs great, but causes a pixellated rainbow 'shimmer' on the screen, highly annoying. Might try some of the others in this thread to see.

Avoid these.
[HTC One S] Troute:
I think all matte protectors do that to the One S, I've tried a few different types and they've all been the same.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DCRocks:

Yah, the zarchiver extracted the file for me, and I was able to extract the multiboot dir to the root of my SD card using 7zip at that point.

Was then able to boot to stock FC09, activate the phone, and was able to update the profile and the PRL

Gonna reboot and see if data works...

If data doesnt come on by the morning, gonna just wipe back to stock EC05 and activate, reroot and restore the nand back

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DCRocks:
So it looks like everything is working now.

Not sure why I was unable to extract the file on my desktop, but dl'ing via the phone and extracting via zarchiver on the phone did the trick, and allowed me to do all the TW stuff I needed to, to get the phone reactivated.

Just had to make sure when it rebooted the first time, I went back into recovery and booted to the SD card again, so I could update the profile to reactivate the data
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OGWisdom:
Hello guys, hopefully someone can help me figure something out. Whenever I install any of the custom kernels we have available, my device just gets stuck in a bootloop. With the exception of one kernel, that is the trinity alpha 23 which is clocked @ 17 something. All the other kernels are being clocked @ 1839. Or I should say not being clocked that high, but rather having the clock speeds open and available. What I am starting to believe is that my processor doesn't like to see those speeds at all! I was wondering if anyone else was having these same issues and results. Thank you and have a blessed day! By the way, I have stated my issue in both of the kernel threads of whom the kernels belonged to and didnt get a response from neither developer, that was my reason for posting here. Thank you.

I am unlocked with HTC dev. What are my ICS update options? Can I update? If so is it possible to get a push in the right direction?
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
If you want to keep root, you will have to flash a stock rooted rom through recovery. However, I would wait a few days, there is a lot of discussion that the rom will not work unless you fully upgrade firmware and hboot, which may be unrootable.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
You could get s-off first. Then you could upgrade to the new hboot and stock rooted ROM. If you don't like the new hboot, you could switch back.

Here is the link to the OTA update.zip from the 4.0.4 AT&T update:

http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~willi348...2.7-1.85.502.3_R2_releasenin45grzkfswb95v.zip

A few caveats:

1) This is for devs only. I have no idea how to manually use this to update. If anybody knows how, shoot me a pm and lmk.

2) This includes a few firmware updates. Among them is an update to HBOOT that adds write protection to the boot.img partition (and possibly others). What this means is that with this new HBOOT, we cannot flash the boot.img from recovery anymore, even with an unlocked bootloader. We can still flash it from fastboot though. Keep this in mind as we may not be able to revert back to an older HBOOT, at least currently.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danger355:
root was achieved on 1.85

i found this post first but the one-click roots never worked for me, though some 'acted' like they were successful. i ended up having to do it the manual way here.

note that on the first post it notes that "ATT COULD SHUTDOWN THE UPDATE SERVERS AND KILL THIS"

i'm not smart enough to confirm, but supposedly it's because this exploit requires an update check on the phone and uses a file from that check. I've also read that the 2.20 update has killed the exploit :(

i've seen at least one report here where someone tried the 1.85 exploit after 2.20 came out and they were still able to root. maybe if you act fast enough you might get lucky :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zounduser:

[HTC Rezound] Chuck Snorus:
Here in Amish country, Lancaster, PA, the ota is still unavailable on my phone. How is the order of the rollout determined? Location? Date of purchase? If I were to magically beam myself to, say, New York City, would the update be available to me? This is just idle curiosity; I'm already running a recent leak.
[HTC Rezound] Squirrel1620:
Is call big v and ask them, not the first person who answers the phone but ask for a higher up person to ask although of I was that employee I'd be pretty annoyed with all the ota questions lol
[HTC Rezound] rezokrazy22:
you have to go back to stock GB. you cannot be on a leak
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
I imagine someone will ride by in a horse and buggy and give it to you. :cyclops:

Seriously, when my daughter and I were on Incredibles, and she was in Ohio and I was east of you in Montgomery County, PA, she got OTA's a full day ahead of me. I'm on a custom ROM, S-OFF now so I don't expect to get any OTA, or I'd report whether I'd gotten it by now.
[HTC Rezound] Chuck Snorus:
You laugh but they all have cell phones!

My question is more about how the rollout sequence is determined. I'm not concerned about receiving the ota. If I wanted it today, I would just flash it. Also, from some other threads I believe running a leak does not, in itself, prevent the ota from loading. My understanding is that you need to be running stock recovery which I am. Those that are not able to load the ota are running AmonRa as far as I can tell.
[HTC Rezound] mtotho:
Just walk to Philly! I'm only about 35 miles from Philly, easy bike ride
[HTC Rezound] Chuck Snorus:
That's my question. I'm curious if that would work. Are the rollouts determined by location?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
If this is like other phones I've had, running a leak will stop you from getting the OTA. AFAIK, the OTA file isn't the full RUU we're seeing on the forums. It's basically a glorified diff file that requires you to be on a specific release, and stock top to bottom. In this case, the last GB release.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I am honestly thinking it is random. I am in Bismarck, ND, not a real center for technology, and have two Rezounds, one which was purchased shortly after launch on a business account and one that I just got in the last month. Both got the update within 15 minutes of each other (newer phone got it first, then well it was d/ling the other started), yet a friend with a Rezound across town still hasn't gotten it yet and he got his in February. My updates started just 12 hours after the first person claimed to get the OTA well lots of others haven't gotten it, even so far. So my vote is that the roll-out is actually just random.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] StardustGeass:
Several days ago, I make a 128 MB swap partition as a 3rd partition on my sd-card (the 2nd one is an ext-4 partition). It works flawlessly and going well...

Yesterday, I tried to flash another ROM... So, I make a backup via CWM, clear data, cache partitioon, and dalvik cache.. At the same time, I delete the ext-4 partition, and enlarge the swap partition to 256 MB...

Since I'm found the new ROM is unstable, I revert back to my old one, via CWM restore... But now, if I type 'free' on the terminal emulator, the swap size is 0 (before doing those things, the size is about 133000KB, since its 128MB). I tried to enable and disable compcache, but when I disabled it, the size returns to 0 again...

Any help ?

Thanks in advance..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] anancr:
this happens because when doing a full-wipe or restore, CWM format the swap partition to ext2 (some ppl say that if you have an ext partition this doesn't happen) so you need to reformat the partition to swap (sometimes I have to do it 2 times before the system acknowledge the swap partition) so, mount the sd in your pc, and reformat the partition. that should fix it.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] penthaler:
Dont reformat only that partition, you have to format whole memory card and create partitions again.

Dont forget to backup your data from SD card.

btw. I wiped data too and only reformating swap partition didnt work.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] StardustGeass:
Ok, thank you for your answers :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] anancr:
