[Galaxy S III Accessories] Alex2x3:
Recently got the rock case and really like it. Definitely alot better then the incipio scyrillic dual I bought before. But I'm a bit worried about the screen and the top and bottom being unprotected.

Any suggestions? I have been hearing about glass screen protector (saw a video on the xda homepage even) but haven't found any that have good reviews yet. As for the top and bottom I was thinking some kind of shield maybe?

What are my options?

Thanks alot,

Alex

P.s. I got a blue s3
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ChrisM0678:
Blue S3 for the win!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Alex2x3:
Does not have to be a glass screen protector necessarily just a good screen protector that doesn't change the look and feel of screen too much and won't peel off with the case!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Alex2x3:
Does it not peel up on the curved edges? And does it cover the entire screen surface? I hate when you can see the protector around it all

I know a lot of people are having screen tacking issues, but how would those be handled? Could I send it in to Asus to get it repaired, for a cost? Or would I have to send it to someone else
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mungulz:
You have a 1 year warranty.

Anything goes wrong and they must fix it for free, assuming the fault is a result of a design error, or manufactoring defect.

Damage inflicted to the device by the user cannot be warrantied, and is up to the user to repair or replace.

In the case of screen lifting, your warranty will cover it.

As for the warranty procedure, im unsure sorry.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncvikingx97:
Okay. So will I be able to send it in to repair if it was user error?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncvikingx97:
If I paid money. Thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mungulz:
Im not sure if they're doing paid repairs at the moment, sorry.

If the screen broke you may be able to say it was as a result of the display lifting though.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncvikingx97:
Okay thanks. The only concern I have is that thy may be able to say that it is my fault because I messed with the screws trying to fix if
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erica_renee:
I think unless its just absolutely obviously that you opened the device they will JUST CHECK THE SCREEN then send you a replacement. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE with this tablet..

if you got it from the play store its best to call google and get a rma for it . Do not ask questions do not give information other then screen is lifting up on left side.. NOw if you opened it and broke something else or striped out screw holes. well now then that would be on YOU..

Good Luck

hi guys, i'd like to know if i can install a software on an android phone remotley or not ? ,,,

the issue is that i suspect my wife and i want to have all her calls recorded and all her moves tracked ,,

i know that i can install a software called "android lost" and it can do this job via google account but the problem is that she will see all the control e-mails as at this time i'll be using her google account and ofcourse she could suspect these e-mails

to sum up : i want a stealth software to install it and control her phone with another e-mail account "it should send me call log , her location , call recording , camera shots" ,,, it should record calls with good quality

thnx for help
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] TheDarkDefender:
first of all..I feel sorry for u bro.. :(

second..u cannot install an app remotely without a google account..well,as far as i know..(make a deep google search though)

and I dont think she ll see the emails,if u install apps via playstore from the web.

Try disabling the email feedback from androidlost..

and yeah..use a different email account.

hope this helps ;)

It seems that almost overnight there's 3 seemingly solid contenders for a great daily CM7 driver on the Atrix.

I'd like to collect everybody's input on the advantages and disadvantages of each. I'll be editing the OP with the latest comments to try and keep it current. Of course, all of this will be UNSCIENTIFIC and solely based on user input.

For now the main options seem to be:

Neutrino 2.91 (Limited to EE version currently)

MROM - 20120822

TopSmarts 1.0

(Of course, a BIG THANKS to the respective developers!!!)

[Atrix 4G General] crashingout:
I've got the same question you do, and I'm currently evaluating all three; I'll try to get back to you in a couple days with my analysis, as I've been using MROM August 28th version, I've tried topsmarts briefly, and I'm going to be trying neutrino tomorrow; I'm going to narrow things down between topsmarts and MROM, before I move on to neutrino. I can't give you an instant answer because battery drain is an important metric to me, that and a fast OS.

So I'll reply again once I'm done. Also I snagged re-mixed, a mod of MROM, because it's probably already pulled, the rom cooker forgot to remove the gapps/apps....it'll be part of my analysis, I've tried it, its like my Atrix hit the floor and got a concussion, getting up and thinking it's a galaxy s2. Even the boot intro is GS2 hah.

It's hard because these three(4!) roms were compiled divergently from cm7, and I GUARANTEE that one of them will be better than the rest, and I'd like to put that to the test...but everyone has their own opinions, for example I don't like the look people give JB roms where they change all the themeing and icons from the beautiful jellybean default stuff to cheap crappy looking 3rd party stuff that clashes with the OS motif.

What about Androbreadcrumbs?

I gotta say that I'm liking MROM currently. GPS locks are very quick, it runs very light and to me it's smoother than Neutrino. I did not have a good experience with Topsmarts with the included launcher. Interesting that TopSmarts comes with the stock Kernel, however, even flashing Faux's CM7 Kernel doesn't help the buggy launcher. Going to flash the new Androbreadcrumbs tonight to compare with MROM, gotta say these two seem to be the top contenders IMO for what little worth it is ;)

Neutrino EE vs TopSmarts

I can talk only about this two, because I don't tested Mrom.

Neutrino have a very nice qHD keyboard, the best I've ever seen in CM7 based roms.

visually, have nice fonts, a minimal dark theme, in general has a better appearance than TopSmarts, although they look similar in appearence.

In performance, both are pretty fast, and if one of them is faster than another, this difference has no perception for the eyes.

In Battery, TopSmarts is much better with 3G on all the time, if you turn it off, both are the same. With me, in standby with 3G on, Neutrino keeps draining my battery, I don't know if there is a solution for this.

In my humble opinion, Neutrino remains the best choice for the Atrix, if you want a custom rom, for what I've been reading of Mrom.
[Atrix 4G General] Obartuckc:
Yea, Dorian's RedPill is most stable and funtuonal performance!
[Atrix 4G General] peddarson:
right now i am on mrom but i will give topsmarts also a try.

those are my thoughts about the mrom:

good battery life (as often enough said): 5% used during the night(10pm - 9.30am)

fast and slick

quick boot

stable (now) before i had reboots from time to time

update feature

miui camera

what i dislike:

sometimes the connection to WLAN takes a really long time (but i do not know if it's CM7 specific)

holo launcher (deleted it...there are also good cm themes avaible)

from time to time some apps do not respond

as you can see the positive aspects have more weight.it is almost the perfect cm7 rom for me.powersaving is a really important point for me.i will see what the other rom will show me and also i want to try the mrom kernel there too.
[Atrix 4G General] nicks90:
i liked the top smarts rom - but i did have some problems with the wifi and gps not connecting and battery indicator and also with my phone giving various errors around not being rooted!

shame, cos it was properly snappy and appeared to have epic battery life.

I dont know if the problems are specific to me or were a result of coming from cm9 (yes, did full wipe etc first). but it had to get removed and i have gone back to jokers cm9
[Atrix 4G General] ticiano_arraes:
I'm using topsmarts for a while now, and it's great. Fast, good battery, stable. Some really rare freezes, but the best one IMO.

I tried MROM for a while but I cant mount the usb drivers on my TV, dont know why, so I gave up, but the time I used, it was really smooth.

From the themes, I dont really care. I always customize my way.

Will give neutrino a chance anyway.
[Atrix 4G General] Ameri-CAIN:
I have had an opportunity to try all three. I started with TopSmarts, then MROM, then Neutrino. They are all awesome. I am still switching back and forth. But the most aesthetically pleasing out of the bunch is Neutrino. The battery life, wifi speeds, and overall functionality were so close it just came down to what looked nicer. I still love all these ROM's and still find myself switching back and forth to see if Neutrino is really my favorite for different tasks. Who knows, maybe each ROM is one update from overtaking the other's.

:D
[Atrix 4G General] ticiano_arraes:
Right now I'm using topsmarts with mrom's kernel and the battery is amazing
[Atrix 4G General] Diamonback:
Im using notttachtrix rom atm, and im very happy with it. I changed launcher because i didnt like default one, but anything else is awsome. Battery is just amazing. Current uptime is 4days and 3 hours and still have 46% of battery left<3.

Hi , I whould like to change my one x back cover to black ( now it's white ). Is there any place where I can buy that or it would be better just to buy a black silicone case ?

Thank
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] GuestK00345:
Someone else can chime in here, but I would think switching that cover could void your warranty.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
At this point I don't think he is worried about that

You could buy a body/case but you're risking buying the international one instead
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] max785:
oh ok , then do you have good inexpensive soft case / silicone / gel to recommend ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Luisit0:
honestly as good of a case that it cn get, youll always have the speaker area showing since that part cant be covered, so youll always have some white detail showing.. ur best bet, a skin maybe? skinit is good at it
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Athrun88:
Get it skinned. Unless you find someone with the black/grey HOX who is willing to trade, you give yourself more of a headache trying to change the cover. Like stated before, you risk buying the international version, which has slightly different dimensions.

I'd recommend Ghost Armor as they have a variety of different finishes and textures with a lifetime warranty on it in case it starts to peel.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kobe4rings:
it'll cost you 50 bucks for the black unibody on ebay. You have to check carefully because like multiple people have stated already, you might end up getting the international version if you think they are all the same.

[HTC Amaze 4G] deweypolice:
First off let me state that I have looked through a majority if not all of the Amaze bricked threads and cannot seem to locate/understand fully the unbrick process. I have found what appears to be two different ways of unbricking the phone one was here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1668340 and the other here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1627882 .

I will state my problem with the phone. The phone is about 2 months old and had the stock rom installed on the phone. I sold the phone on ebay and the guy that bought the phone contacted me a day later and stated "I sold him a dead phone" which is clearly not true. This clown attempted to root the phone and ended up bricking the phone. He states that he never did such a thing and the phone would not charge or turn on. I had the guy send the phone back to me and sure enough the phone would not charge or turn on. However when I plug into my computer it attempts to search for drivers. I had the drivers installed on my computer due to it being my phone so I thought it was odd that it was searching for new ones. The problem lies that the driver it is searching for is ( qhsusb_dload ) which from me searching around appears to be caused from bricking the phone. Long end of the short ebay sided with the buyer and I am out the money and have a bricked phone even though the picture on the listing shows the phone working and having 3/4 battery life left.

What I have tried so far is what @tiki66 explained that helped him. I downloaded the amaze file (PH85IMG_RUBY_ICS_35_S_TMOUS_2.14.531.1_Radio_1.14.550L.17DC_30.78.550L.15_release_257469_signed.zip) from file factory and renamed it to the ( PH85IMG ). I also reformatted an 8gb sd card to the fat32 and put the file onto the sd card and put it in the phone. The phone still would not turn on or charge.

I also have tried @dexter93 way of unbricking. I have installed the version of linux that was required. My hang up is the second and third requirements being ( the appropriate package for the device and the latest RUU for your device ) I believe the RUU is the ruby file that I have downloaded. I have watched the youtube video about 5 times and attempted to link to the phone through the terminal however it stated that the program I was searching for was not there. It seems as soon as I get clarification on steps 2 or 3 would get me through to the phone.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. I apologize for the run on or rambling.

Thank you!

Does adb detect the phone? And does the phone boot into fastboot? If adb does detect it then try to push a recovery to it and see if it takes.
[HTC Amaze 4G] deweypolice:
I cannot get the phone to do anything. I it may be possible that the battery is completely dead however I have left it on the wall charger for about 5 hours. I have seen a few time when I would hit the power button the screen flashes a very dull white for a split second.

I have tried the down volume button and power button about 100 times in the past 2 days.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
That could be it. Some recoveries don't allow charging while off so if the guy did root it and put CWM recovery then it doesn't allow charging while off. Try to charge the battery externally or use a different battery.
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Yes, it sounds like the guy probably flashed a recovery that can't charge while off.. the only way to get the phone to turn on until you can fix that issue is to charge it with an external charger of some sort.

Definitely not bricked, but as useful as a brick until you can charge it somehow..
