[Nexus 7 General] BigFuzzyArchon:
your pictures arent working but i believe you are right. when i have the back cover off there is no screen lift whatsoever...you might have solved it yo

i want to see your pictures before i do it to my nexus though.
[Nexus 7 General] AirBoss24K:
So I've been considering the N7 for a few months now because of the awesome price point it's at and I was wondering how common an issue this is. Is screen lift present in most of these devices or is it just the luck of the draw? Also, do the devices start that way or after some use does the issue rear its ugly head? Any advice before my purchase would be helpful! Thanks :cool:
[Nexus 7 General] Evo_Shift:
It's present on every nexus 7 I've seen....so about 5 of them including my local Sam's club display model. That doesn't mean it's common but that is my experience.
[Nexus 7 General] mr_tris:
I'm on my 8th N7 and its has a small amount of lift (0.5mm), its a C90. It used to be worse (1.5-2.5mm) until I slackened all the screws quarter turn on the raised side.

I just live with it now. If you don't look at it it's not there! Its going on eBay soon ready for the 32GB model.
[Nexus 7 General] Wilks3y:
I don't think my device has any screen lift, I did the squeeze test and didnt notice any movement or squeeking.

How can I tell if I have screen lift?
[Nexus 7 General] siddesu:
If you have it, it is hard to miss, the glass goes above the silver bezel on the left side. Mine was okay in he first few weeks, then the lift appeared. Nothing but glue worked for me and glue worked very well.

[Nexus 7 General] marco00011:
How did you do it? I thought about the same but I'm not sure if it will work or how it will look like in case the glue might be visible under the glass. Thanks

If your phone has Gingerbread you can't run apk requires more than ICS but there is a way

1. You should have Apktool or Apk manager you can get there from

Apktool: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/list

Apkmulti tool: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1310151

Thanks: Brut.alll(apktool). raziel23x(Apkmulti tool).

*I won't introduce how to install these tools just visit their site!!

2.Decompile apk

3.Go to file where apk is unzipped and find "AndroidManifest.xml"

4.Open "AndroidManifest.xml" with text editor and find line

uses-sdk minSdkVersion="number"

5.Change number to

Under your Api or just your Api

*Api Level*

2.0. level: 5

2.0.1 level: 6

2.1 level: 7

2.2~ 2.2.2 level: 8

2.3~2.3.1 level: 9

2.3.2~2.3.7 level: 10

3.0 level: 11

3.1 level: 12

3.2 level: 13

4.0~4.0.2 level: 14

4.0.3~4.0.4 level: 15

4.1. level:16

6. Save it and compile and sign apk

7. Install it and Enjoy!!

*I've tried various types of apks and almost every apks (execept games) worked and about 70%of games worked this way*

*Thus method is just forcing Api Level down so if there is a problem with Api apk may force close*

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AYKJ:
Hi guys I just wanted to know if what I'm about to do is the correct method to upgrade my firmware from gingerbread to ics.

I bought my phone ( i9100 ) from Hong Kong and I live in a different country. So when there was an update for its firmware, i was unable to receive it even after checking for updates through system. So what I'm about to do is use Odin and download a firmware from samfirmware under HK's firmware and put it in the PDA part of Odin and run it.

Is this method correct? Or am I suppose to do something else? My phone is not rooted and I dont intend for it to be just yet and I'm also wondering if I use HK's firmware, will it affect my network coverage? Because being in a different country and having a different assigned network and all might cause a few problems with its radio or something?

Please advice thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HANDSY:
Hi yes that's how I upgraded my firmware that method will work. Be sure to factory reset first though. As for your carrier concerns I can't answer sorry. The beauty with this though is that you can re-flash a different firmware if it doesn't work. All the best
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
1. Your method is correct. You shouldn't have signal issues.

Before flashing you must go through the flashing guides.

2. If you are living in another country and don't have plans of going to Hong Kong or your phone is out of warranty (this doesn't matter), you can flash any firmware for your present location. It will work very fine.

[General Questions and Answers] BottIedWater:
So the other day I tried to root my nook color, (I don't remember which version I used, and I've lost the files for now), and got the endless nook loading screen. So, I figured I'd go and restore factory settings, which I did with TWRP, which worked until I booted it up. Now, I've got a nook that will boot any custom USB I put in, (nookbuntu, for example), but will not read any touch input. However, the touch screen worked perfectly well in the recovery app, so I'm wondering if it's a driver problem that I can just download a few files for, or if my nook is broken. Any advice?

I've tried wiping cache, and just about any other programs that I could in the recovery mod if that helps at all.

[General Questions and Answers] alfeuss:
A NAND backup is done through recovery. You can't fabricate one. I would recommend restoring the Nook and rooting it again to see if that resolves the problem.

I don't know what the dude who begun this thread is or was up to but I do know that I have lost my EFS backup and as such have a GS3 I9300 which isn't working to fix.

I have searched at length and have come to know the IMEI and serial of the phone can be edited with a HEX Editor out of the nv_data.bin file and this information is on block 0188150 a-f and 0188160 0-4. I have tried it but since my nv_data.bin which I generated was corrupted in the first place, it made little or no difference.

If that truly is possible, why not edit those bits out and then share leaving pointers on how to get it personalized per the benefactor's phone.

Second of all, that means you have our warranty, so if you send your device in, and you don't have warranty anymore - we don't either..

If you would have read the thread, there would have been no need to resurrect it. The last post here, from me, I think, is almost four years old.

To some it up:

You lost your EFS-partition: tough. You're screwed. No-one in their sane mind would give you their EFS partition. This is classes as IMEI cloning and is illegal.

Search through any and all backups you may or may not have, see if you've got an image there. If not, you'll need to buy a new phone, or see if Samsung will flash you a fresh EFS partition. (Pro tip: they won't)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Thijsvr:
So more and more rumours are popping up, saying that HTC is working on a device to challenge the Note. How could they not actually, the Note is a big succes and at the moment there is pretty much no real competition for it out there.

According to the rumours, first starting with a popup in benchmark results, the device is called the 6435LVW.

It is said to be running a Snapdragon S4 dualcore, but recently the rumours about quadcores are appearing. Seeing as pretty much all top devices are now moving towards quadcores, I'm inclined to believe the quadcore rumour.

According to the benchmark scores it's hooked up to 1.5 gb of memory and it should have 16 gigs of internal storage. It seems that this is not expandable with an SD card.

And then for the most interesting part for most: The screen, according to benchmarks, is a 5 inch 1080p screen. Putting the PPI significantly above that of the iPhone.

Anyways, this is known, and as a user of the OG Note, which is the best phone I've ever had, I'm quite curous to see HTC's take on a phablet. Especially since I don't get particularly warm for the Note 2.

What do you think, is it a good idea for HTC to enter this market? Is it something you would be interested in?

Lets not forget the blurrycams:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] FlamingGoat:
I'm not sure I could step down in size, that's too close to an S3 for me. More importantly to me, no sd card slot? Total fail if that's the case, I well not buy anything which doesn't have expansion.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] 3473:
really hope this gets a UK release, will buy one for sure
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] azzledazzle:
I get why HTC are making devices with Non Removable SD cards and batteries ( Like my One S), Its so they can be 'different' and make devices slimmer.

What I dont get is why they remove the expandable memory but only leave the user with 16gb Internal memory (of which 5-6gb is consumed by ROM + Apps etc) which turns out to be around 10gb.

If you're gonna remove battery and expandable memory, Give us a whopping powerful battery (so we dont need to buy extended ones) and some mega internal memory ! (something like 64gb, with USB OTG support). Retards at Apple have been creating 64gb iPhones for quite some time, So its not rocket science!

I dont think any one is going to make something as popular as the Note series, Samsung smashed it with this device and has created a massive fan base, I for one cant imagine ever switching to something else now.

Hey fellas,

Got my hands on the SGP Neo Hybrid Color series for the S3 and wanted to share my thoughts on it. Before I start, I want to mention - this is the SECOND version, not the flawed model that had the issue with the power / volume buttons, that has been remedied. This is a hybrid case made of TPU and a plastic bumper. The case fits extremely well and looks great. Cutouts are perfect and the volume rocker covering is easy to press, however the power button is a little tough to press and mushy.

Protection wise, this offers a moderate amount of protection - but the main reason most people choose this case is due to its high quality feel and look. I'm pleased with what it offers, even though it is priced at 27$ - more than most cases.

I know I had issues with the volume buttons(it was the increase volume button to be specific) when I first put on the case, but after a few days of usage they seemed to have adjusted properly and I can use them just fine.
