Gorilla Glass is tough. Gorilla Glass v2 is tougher. Someone already posted that its the plastic housing. This is basically totally right. Glass of various types have different degrees of how much impact they can handle, and on the SGS1, the edge is entirely surrounded by a fairly flexible plastic, and the screen is slightly recessed. meaning if you drop it on the edge, the plastic eats much of the force, plus the plastic spreads the force out over a greater area in the process. Glass's main weakness is on the edge because all the force is on a very tiny area. Have you ever seen one of those hand held devices for blowing out a car's window (for emergencies, where you cant get out the door/etc)? All it is is a very fine point recessed in the handle, once you apply force, the tip pops out with not much overall force, but in such a small area it will shatter the window.

The SGS3 will break easier than the SGS1 i am pretty sure, since the glass is all flush, and there's more area that could land with a high force/area ratio due to the screen actually being slightly higher than the plastic edge. If that plastic edge were flush with, or higher than the glass, it would protect against a wider angle of drops.

There have been advances in glass recently that might make all these worries a thing of the past. Glass if chipped enough to form even a microscopic hairline crack will see that crack continue. Most tempered glasses basically spider out and explode into a whole bunch of tiny pieces, but new techniques with microscopic ridges in random directions obstruct the crack's progression, and hopefully we will see technologies like this on the market in the next few years.

Glass nerding complete.

[General Questions and Answers] UberV:
Greetings,

After searching the forums I was wondering if it was possible to change the background glow when an icon is selected and then the color of the outline of the icon as it is dragged around the home screen. I have successfully changed many of my current launchers colored bits to red however I still am unable to change the glow and outline effect. After downloading different themes for Cm9 I know it is possible to change it from the stock color of blue to any other color (red in this case), however the location of the color code or png is lost to me. Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z General] rirozizo:
so i was thinking:

if a rom boots by the boot.img file, in theory you can boot any rom using a pc without flashing anything, just use the fastboot command: fastboot boot boot.img of the rom. (of course, everything has to be compatible with it...)

let me clear some things out:

the roms we'll be dual booting are both AOSP, assuming they are both GB too.

so boot.img from say ILWT rom can be running on say EliteMOD CM7...

didn't understand? ok:

initially, i have EliteMOD CM7 running... nothing special.

what i want to do to dual boot:

-download 2 recoveries using rom manager.

-extract the boot.img from ILWT

-put it in /sdcard/clockworkmod/downloads/

-rename it to the older recovery version you downloaded earlier.

-delete the older recovery .img file

-then let rom manager install what it thinks it's the old recovery, where it's actually the boot.img of ILWT.

-then reboot to recovery.

in theory, when you boot to recovery, the phone will boot ILWT... then when you turrn the phone off then on, the phone will boot EliteMOD...

those two roms are just examples...

but i may have to edit the boot.img to boot from some files on sd... but then again, i wouldn't be doing anything

any thoughts about this idea? is it legit? or just stupid/crazy?

———————————————————

pm me if you need any app... ANY app
[G2 and Desire Z General] demkantor:
try it out, can't imagine it would cause any damage

although I don't believe it will work because when you are booting through fastboot I believe you are actually telling the phone to boot what is in the phone not what is on pc.

as for the boot.img extracted from a nandroid that alone won't boot without being flashed to the phones nand first (at least I don't think it can)

but hey, I really can't see any perment damage resulting from this so have fun!
[HTC One S] ExDelayed:
The power button decided it doesn't want to work anymore. Since its been rooted, and I don't trust the shops in town, it's going back to HTC for repairs. They told me it will get wiped during the service (and I will do a factory reset before it leaves), what are the chances of it coming back locked with the factory ROM installed?

Any other things, besides the S3, I should watch for when it comes back? I'm not worried about losing LeeDroid, it's all backed up, and can be restored as soon as it comes home.
[HTC One S] frdd:
Well the power button is a part of the removable SIM cover so unless it's the button in turn being pressed by that that's causing your problem then it's a very easy repair... All bets are of as to whether they'll also RUU your phone for you.
[HTC One S] ShensMobile:
The switch itself is on the phone. Only the physically pressable part is on the SIM cover.
[HTC One S] h.han:
I don't think you will get a s3 version back given the fact that you sent out s4 version and this repair should not be so difficult that they have to give you a replacement.

But, they will very likely factory reset your phone and put everything back to "out of box status". So you will have stock Rom, locked bootloader. I learned this from other threads where people saying it is part of HTC's repair process to flash everything to factory state no matter it's hardware or software repair.
[HTC One S] ExDelayed:
Got the quote back on the repair today.

So, when it comes back, it will probably be locked and untampered. It's bad that the guys at T-mobile were telling me to lose it, but I wanted to take the high road and do it right. A main board is $240, btw.
[HTC One S] obutto:
So not worth it...It will be $240 + tax.

You can buy a new one locally for ~$350...Probably could sell the other sucker to some idiot desperate for a deal for $200 as well...
[HTC One S] rootrider:
Did they give you any reason why exchanging the mobo is out of warranty? You should ask so if not.

I mean, you sent it in because of a defective power-on button...
[HTC One S] Hunt3r.j2:
They'll just say the reason why is because the HBOOT displays "unlocked".

Honestly if you want to get warranty coverage on an unlocked phone in Europe your best bet is to brick it to QHUSB_DLOAD mode and then send it in.
[HTC One S] ExDelayed:
That was exactly the reason I got. Oh well, it's on it's way back, I can finally put the Nokia 7510 I have been using out of its misery (and mine), and have my One back. There is at least a thread now, in case someone else runs into this problem, they will know what to expect.
[HTC One S] eneka:
I took my tmobile one s back with me to taiwan and got the screen fixed there (HTC has repair/service centers there, it's kinda like an apple store without the products, all they do is help you with your phone)

Anyways, they called me and said, literally, "the mainboad is unstable and needs to be changed" (i sent it in for a cracked lcd) I declined and said just fix the screen....they ended up sending me a brand new/refurb device..

Hi, wondering if anyone having this same issue. Both the Gmail and Email app are not showing the complete email in sent email. When I open the emails in the sent folder, it only showed what I typed in that email, and not the rest of the thread. I definitely checked the included text checkout before hitting send. Also, when I log into gmail on the web and my yahoo mail, and open the same email. I can see the rest of the thread from the web. Just on the app it's not showing.

I downloaded Bluetooth File Transfer by Medieval Software because I saw that it might fix the connecting issues with the Bluetooth. Now as soon as I get into my Nissan the Bluetooth audio and phone connect right away. Before they would fight and disconnect one another and I'd have to disconnect and connect Bluetooth every time. Thought I'd let you guys know. Reason I posted this here was because I heard it was a common problem with the newer Android OS

"free"

if you want to do remote desktop in WAN, you need to pay $.99 a month or $9.99 a year for the anywhere module. splashtop 1 doesn't have that limit.

almost a perfect remote desktop though..

[TouchPad Themes and Apps] sando7:
got interested in this App from reading this and another thread, so i did some reading.

from what i could gather from some reviews about Splashtop2 & Splashtop HD , people are saying Splash2 free version works better than the paid version of splash HD.

so today i set up my Win 8 PC with the Streamer and installed Splashtop 2 free version on my Touchpad running the latest Cm9 3/24 nightly, i got to say I'm very impressed how nice and easy everything was to install & start using....basically windows 8 on my TP, was kinda freaky at first with navigation & opening files but i got it....watched a DivX movie with no problems....look forward to learning more, i like this App very much.
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] BuffMcBigHuge:
This is an app I use daily. When I'm too lazy to get off the couch to turn on my media server, i simply log into splashtop and do it all wirelessly on my desktop computer in the other room!

Its an amazing app and an amazing service. I'm considering the anywhere access feature, as it would be nice to access my Windows 8 desktop anywhere I am.
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] sando7:
yes it is amazing, they got me snagged hook line & sinker!

I went and took the plunge and bought the anywhere package for a year, set it up on my laptop, net-book and all 4 of my tablets....works flawlessly on my home wifi.....gonna try it on my mobile hotspot tomorrow, sure hope it works as well thru my PHS300 & 4/g dongle.......wondering how much it will eat on my data plan, guess i'll find out.....have a good one.
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] BuffMcBigHuge:
Let me know if you are able to stream videos from your home network through your mobile connection.
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] sando7:
it did connect thru the mobile, but there were a few times the video's lagged & the audio was out of sync....not as good as my home wifi

home wifi = video & music files (excellent)

mobile connection = video (sometimes lagged & audio out of sync), music files played fine.

overall imo, the mobile connect is NOT reliable for streaming video, yet for music files and accessing host PC was very good......i can live with it hehe, guess i have to for at least 1 yr...maybe my settings are not correct....gonna play with it some more.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] aSystemOverload:
Hi,

Having taken delivery of my new Nexus 7 yesterday, I'm going through that stage if loading up apps I was used to on my Defy. I was immediately impressed by the new look of the calendar, but not happy with the lack of widgets, so thought I'd load up Business Calendar, as it had served me well, but it would seem that it doesn't like tablets, all but the ICON + x EVENTS widget look terrible stretched on a big screen.

Can anyone recommend a decent calendar app with the functionality of Business Calendar, but great HD widgets, including agenda, weekly, monthly etc... Preferably with ability to change size of fonts etc...
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] voyageurs60:
CalenGoo is very nice - like the color coding of multiple calendars and is easy to read.

Seems the best one with modest amount of options/settings.

On the plus side, the widget size of Pure Calendar is excellent on the N7.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Paddington:
I can confirm this works on Jelly Belly 6.1, as well. The Clock app is duplicated, but it's no problem. One works fine, and the other works fine but gives an FC message when you exit out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vicino:
So for Jelly Belly ROM the only problem is the clock? because i can fix this
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Paddington:
That's the only problem I've seen. There are two "Clock" apps in the app drawer, and there are two clock widgets. The regular analog clock widget works fine, still, but the themed widget does not. It can be put on the home screen and works fine like that, but you can't open the clock app by pressing it like you can on the regular analog clock. It gives an FC message, but the widget remains on the home screen without any other problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vicino:
Please try this and tell me if it's fix the problem

http://www.mediafire.com/?luc99bcw37mzzb3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Paddington:
The app is still duplicated in the app drawer. I didn't try wiping, reflashing Jelly Belly/GApps, and then flashing the theme again, though. I can try that when I get home from work.

There are also two analog clock widgets, still, but both are the themed widget, whereas one was the stock widget before. The first one listed replaced the stock one and opens the clock app. The second one displays the correct time on the widget, but pressing it does nothing. No FC, but it doesn't open the clock app, either.

I think that the duplicate was created by flashing the theme but not removed by flashing the fix. I think that if I reflash the ROM, then reflash the theme, it should fix the problems. I'll report back tonight if I have time to screw around with it more. Thank you for trying to fix the problem (even though it isn't a big deal, just prevents the theme from being perfect).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vicino:
No need to reflash the ROM, just link me to the ROM you are using and i can pull the clock from there
