LOL: SuperLCD2 will protect our mobile!!!

Well, I did warn you guys that customer care people may not know anything. That just confirmed it. Doesn't even know that superLCD2 is a display type and not glass :rolleyes:

Next time if someone make an attempt at support guys (No..not ROB again!!!) do ask them whether it has any type of scratch protection...

They should probably outsource their tech support section to xdaforum.. I have found hell a lot better support here (and people as well).. Thanks guys.
[HTC One V] hd2_iFan:
TFT Touch Screen. What kind of glass it is? Its the 1st time i heard of it.
[HTC One V] Mervin The Paranoid:
True, but HTC has no reason to ask Corning to not identify One V when they've already identified One X and S and others. One V glass is very 'scratch friendly'. I have an ungainly small, surface scratch in the middle of my screen which glows against white background; seriously its such a small, insignificant scratch but when the screen is white, it shines in full glory. Also many other small scratches despite the fact that I don't carry it in my pocket and do my best to avoid scratches (no screen protection... don't like the feel of them)
[HTC One V] bezbeV:
Hey, did you read my entire statement? Below that I said - I do not think One V comes with gorilla glass (I just hope it did). And further down the thread it is sort of understood that oneV do not have a CG glass. But there was a remote possibility that it may have come with some scratch resistant glass (not corning's). But from your scratch I think it is not. Better use screen protectors and opt for a glossy type. It will look exactly like the screen unlike a Matte finish one.

Just a quick question, is there anything special about an Otg cable compared to say a standard usb male/female cable? Is there a difference in pin configuration or is any old male micro usb to female standard usb cable the same thing?

Like a standard CAT5 and crossover cable are same connectors but different pin config

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magpir:
Hey everyone,

i have an interesting question about hd7 LCD: are the pixels black or white when voltage is applied? In a "normally white" LCD, the screen will be white if no voltage is applied to any of the pixels. In contrast, a "normally black" LCD will be black if no voltage is applied.

Does anyone know which mode of operation HD7 use? Is it a function of being TN+Film, P/MVA, or IPS? it would just be nice to know.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backlashsid:
Just curious byt why would this be important ?

are you applying that because of so...the light or dark theme might be more suitable..depending ?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magpir:
many factors . HD7 seems to use a TN + film display . Unlike the iphone 3GS which is using IPS LCD

1) battery life

in Normally "white" LCDs , no power is applied to display white, Black consumes power

in Normally "black" LCDs , no power is applied to display black, White consumes power

2) Screen protectors

I have no concrete research on this but certain screen protectors for wp7 phone may display better with white theme/ black text because screen protectors with a textured matt screen tend to blur white text. Like wise the opposite is true for screen protectors which are non anti glare

3) longevity of screen

of course when no power is applied to the screen for display of white or black , yr screen is less likely to burn out faster
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loco5150:
I had HTC 7 Pro and now Titan. Both SLCDs, as I assume the HD7 is also. When I had the 7 Pro I looked in to this and got the impression white would be the correct answer here. I looked in to this because of the theoretical battery save. I never tested what is the real difference though.

On amoled screen the natural state would be black.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magpir:
I believe TN display and SLCD is different

SLCD is more power efficient, has deeper blacks and contrast and it has a few types like IPS , ect
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loco5150:
Yes you are correct. I was on my mobile yesterday and didnt look up what panel HD7 has, I only assumed it is the same as 7Pro and Titan, but its not.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magpir:
Only the trophy and HTC titan/ titan 2 uses SLCD.

the rest use TN display + film

If i am, not wrong , though the newer upcoming Win 8 phones may use SLCD 2 or Super Amoled HD

But it worked for me ..on neov running Xperia Pureness build 10 ..and yup.the vibrations does occur even when it deactivated
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ssspeq:
Did you press the help button in the app or read the thread? You probably disabled vibration feedback on recognized gesture but left find my sensor-mode on. That mode causes vibration on statechange of the sensor to help users find where the sensor is located on the device. This setting is now completely gone because it caused people to think the app was broken. The other settings are more clearly explained now.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RamEsRock:
There is no Root on Kernels, the ROMs are the ones that have the files for root.

If you are on locked bootloader, there's a thread on the general section on how to root it.

If you are on unlocked bootloader, search for Riyal's Ultima Kernel or Jimbo77's ArcKnight Kernel Pro Version.

hello xda users.

I'm the owner of a Razr EMEA.

I tried 2 times to flash my Razr to a Stock rom. ( I have an O2.en.DE stock rom, 2.3.6 ) I wanted to flash it to another stock rom say , retail.en.eu but it failed,

I also tried to flash to ICS ( through the eternity Project and it failed to )

I have only Linux , I don't have any acces to a windows machine, please suggest me only solution which can be accomplied with a linux machine.

I searched the web with steps by step guide, but It seems it missed always something. please, when you alredy flashed your razr through linux, show me how you did it. my razr is not rooted. I have android SDK installed and it is operational.

So here is what I want :

moving from the stock rom O2.en.DE to a retail one, say retail.en.EU

[Motorola Droid RAZR] ryde_razr:
I wanted to let you know I find a solution .

I did as follow:

using only a linux machine , I setted the android sdk, and from the unzipped Stock rom folder ( ICS) I executed the fasboot_image.sh file:

adb reboot bootloader
sudo fastboot_image.sh

NB: I have move both the adb and fastboot files to /usr/bin so they are globaly accessible. fastboot_image.sh is just a script which continually run fastboot , so ensure first your fastboot can see your phone
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Vatazhka:
Well, this is exactly what Fla**** does without the need to install the Android SDK, which is not required to perform this task.

As you noticed, the ICS SBF is self contained (it contains a script and fastboot binary) - but other SBFs are not.

You have to set up udev using appropriate USB IDs first, so that tools fastboot and adb can access the device. If you are smart, you won't have to use sudo.

Not sure if anyone has had similar but recently ive noticed that when Im using a usb lead to charge my sensation it appears to be charging but when ive come back to it a bit later its totally dead, I thought the battery might be dead so have just bought a new anker 1900mah one. I plugged it in and went to settings and battery, plugged it into usb and watched it in the space of a few mins go from 95% to 86% :S

Charges fine on mains, ive tried different usb ports too any ideas?

Try tuning off "Mobile Network" from settings and see if it works

After flashing this file 'Xperia_U_ST25i_Relock_Bootloader.ftf' to my Xperia_U, the phone won't boot again

I had to flash again with 'ST25i_6.0.B.3.184_O2-CZ.ftf' in order to get the phone working gain

This also made me lose Root, so I had to reflash again with 'Xperia_U_ST25i-ROOT-ROM.img'

(and unlocking again with fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xkey)

so, it seems there's no way of keeping the phone rooted and locking the bootloader

I own an Xperia S, I flashed a custom kernel to root then flashed back the stock kernel and locked the bootloader again, the phone works perfect and kept the root!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
Too keep your phone rooted you need to keep its bootloader unlocked and if you try locking it again you might brick it!!

So if you want to keep your root and bootloader locked then here's what you should do

1)Unlock bootloader

2)Flash a custom kernel which roots your phone

3)Flash with stock rom

Note : if still not rooted then untick the option in flastool to skip flashing kernel when flashing with stock rom!!

Pls correct me if m wrong!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ssuper2k:
Thanks, so now I need confirmation from an Xperia_U owner..

What I want to keep is:

ROM: KA03_Xperia_SSpeed.zip

Then, lock bootloader again, withOUT losing ROOT

and then update to 1.84 (via Companion)
