Depends on the screen you get I'm afraid, word of warning : I've read that people have been asking ebay sellers if it's genuine, they answered yes. So they ordered the product and it turned out to be not genuine :( be careful. I'd buy from somewhere else if possible like an online shop etc, someone might be able to give advice on where from

Answer to your question is: this isn't reliant on your repairing skills, it's based on what screen you buy to replace it with.

Because you're buying new housing as well, this should be quite risk free in a way for you, cause if you damage the old screen or housing when trying to get it apart it doesn't matter much. :)

The screen flex (not quite sure here) might be the screen not being in the housing properly, so could be fixed from your best set of repairing hands lol
[HTC One X] ORStoner:
If they say it's genuine and it isn't, you can either get a refund from them or get ebay to sort it out for you.

[HTC One X] lawrence750:
yeah it's good to have that buyer protection, it definitely does the job. main reason i say is that i read somebody had bought screens from 7 different sellers on ebay, after they said it was genuine when it wasn't (something like that) and had to get every single one sent back and refunded. its just not worth the hassle imo
[HTC One X] mrjayviper:
How would I know it's a genuine HTc screen?
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
tricky one to be honest - i guess the best way is to either try and obtain one from htc themselves, or find a reputable shop, that you've used before that sells it. i'll have a look at some point to see if i can find any anywhere. of course this is still no guarantee that it's genuine, which brings us back to square 1
[HTC One X] ORStoner:
If it looks genuine, has gorilla glass (you can tell if you look at it from a sharp angle) and is high quality, then who cares if it is genuine htc? It won't affect resale value

HTC One X CM10 EPRJ
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
I'm not saying don't buy it, it is your choice of course, the main reason for genuine is the quality of the screen it self. Ie the colour reproduction, whether the glass was laminated properly to the lcd and if it has glue spots or yellow spots or just not a very clean finish. Or maybe the glass isn't as thin and the touch response isn't as sensitive as it used to be, also not giving the effect of the screen sorta popping out of the glass

I'm not sure if you've read this or not, this may well still be happening, but htc were using two different manufacturers for the screens, which when put side by side (you wouldn't notice otherwise) they had different colours just slightly, like one had a warmer colour, like not quite bright white but more yellowish I think it was. And they were the genuine ones (this doesn't help my argument I know) my point is though, if the genuine ones were like that, imagine just how bad they can be when not genuine

I haven't had to experience it myself, I don't know if these screens really are that much worse than genuine ones, but everything I've read suggested that they are worse, don't say I didn't warn ya! :) I wish you luck with it though, do let us know how the replacement goes etc

[HTC One S] usaff22:
As the title says. Is anyone willing to risk their One S in order to achieve S-OFF for the One S or possibly other phones (if the method works, and gets ported)

Some might have insurance, that's even better. But by no means is anyone forcing one another nor do we take responsibility for damaged/bricked devices.
[HTC One S] Elloco305:
What do you have in mind.
[HTC One S] usaff22:
Planning to try this method, along with jobo hopefully.
[HTC One S] dc211:
beaups said that write protection is enabled at that point. So you could use that to read / extract info but you couldn't write to a protected area anyways. So it will either fail or brick the phone.

What area are you planning to write to using that?
[HTC One S] usaff22:
jobo said that method already works for splash screen customization. so I am assuming it works
[HTC One S] k1llacanon:
Do if it works successfully we will have s off ?
[HTC One S] dc211:
No but it will enable NFC. :silly:
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
I dont think we can write to hboot. On old hboots we can write boot splashes by dd'ing a picture into the emmc, but not on newer ones. I believe that old hboots only lock sbl1,2,3 and hboot and newer hboots lock pretty much everything except cache, system, data, sdcard. (Altho changing CID works afaik, so maybe some more..)

But yeah .. what were you planning to flash? A patched sbl?
[HTC One S] dc211:
I don't know about insurance in other countries but for T-mobile US it's $130 if you break your phone. Sure it's not retail but it's not cheap either.
[HTC One S] mike102871:
Free within first year if its hardware . Hehe
[HTC One S] usaff22:
I heard in some software versions SBL starts the locking and authentication, sets the read only on HBOOT but other versions the HBOOT enables write protection for itself, along with the SBLs.

1. This is the i9300 forum.

2. Questions go in the QA section.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delsus:
1. He is asking for an app that is not on his phone, the international forum is the logical place to go to ask for it in the first instance.

I love how you get your post count up, I never see you post except to say "Wrong forum noob"

@OP I am running UltimaROM, and I don't have SamsungChineseIME.apk, however I don't have the Samsung Keyboard installed which could be why. Or it might not be on the I9300.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
Actually, the logical place would be to post in the i747 section, that's what it's for.

Do you think I shouldn't tell them they're posting in the wrong forum? Do you not care about the rules?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikep99:
He has an i747 but is asking for files from the i9300 - I don't see the problem in asking in this forum....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHEVYbarracuda1:
Same thing is what i thought.. he is a wrong forum hunter
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
Same here, just doesn't get it...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikep99:
@OP - have a look at http://bbs.gfan.com/android-4560478-1-1.html.

it 'might' help.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delsus:
So it's logical to say "hey guys I know our phone doesn't have this apk, but could someone upload it for me?" He is asking for something that isn't on the I747 therefore in that forum he would not get anything. The international model however could very well have what he is looking for.

I do care about the rules, but there is a big report button to report to the mods, I only see you trying to raise your post count with these "Post in Q&A" replies.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
Right. I misunderstood him then. He should post in the QA then.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klaus88:
Hello,

I'm one of those first users who has received GS3 in the first days of June and a user of the FoxHound Rom which is very good since doing some undervolting, modifying the kernel and changing some other setting like free ram modem changing I achieved a very very long battery life (at least +50% of battery life) and a butter like transition as screen effects.

The only problem for me, which would be with every GS3, it's the maximum brightness. It's too low. In the FoxHound mod there's the famous STweak which theoretically has a setting to improbe the maximum brightness from 28 (default) to 35... but I don't think that it works.

Do you know some other root app or some kind of mod which allow a really improvement of maximum brightness? Cuz as default, this display is too dark under the sun, which is one of the the two major defects of this smartphone (the other one is the materials... I'm ok with the chassis made of PC but the backcover made of PC too, no. I'd have rather chose some aluminum alloy or mg alloy with MAO treatment.)

Thanks in advance guys.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Auto brightness is profoundly terrible on the S3.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Try Lux Autobrightness in Google Play. It works for me.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Does it increase battery drain?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
I guess it will but not much so far.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klaus88:
No guys, wait a moment.

If I'm not wrong, your talking about apps which modify AUTObrightness. But as for that I've already solved just with STweaks which allows to modify autobrightness setting. My concern is for MAXIMUM brightness..Maximum brightness is not modified by autobrightness settings.

As for me lux doesn't change the maximum level.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
I`am only interested in the minimum autobrightness values. And this apps solves it for me.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klaus88:
As for minimum value I agree but this doesn't solve at all what I asked in the first post

aosp roms have much better max brightness than samsung roms. also try disabling "auto adjust lcd screen tone " in display
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klaus88:
Uhm ... that's bad ... I mean, what I need is exactely the FoxHound (graphic aosp like, all samsuns built-in apps, downclock and downvolt option on both CPU and GPU, STweaks, kernel like siyah) just with better maximum brightness ... so changing to an aosp rom, I'd prefer to avoid it.

I'm giving a shot to the tone tweak but I don't see any remarkable improvement at the moment...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Where are those modifications to Auto brightness? I don't see anywhere in STweaks where they can be made.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klaus88:
"min_bl" in brightness curve setting.. if you increase it the screen will remain at lower brightness level at higher environment brightness.. practically you change how it reacts to environmental brightness. As for me, it works.

But here you cannot decrease the minimum brightness level.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klaus88:

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] nocaldawg:
Got up early this morning to try out my new usb reader for my 7.7. Went to turn it on and my tab would not progress beyond the initial Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 Screen. Held power and volume down to shut down. Went off for a few seconds and then the same thing popped up. Did power button with volume up into recovery and selected re-boot. Same thing! I ended up doing a factory reset and just started over. It booted up.

I am completely stock. No root, no rom (boring I know). Using ADW Ex Launcher in the Honeycomb os.

Any thoughts as to why this happened and any less radical solutions should this happen again?

Thanks in advance.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] morfinx:
Hi folks, I'm due for an upgrade on Oct 1st. I've struggled for months to decide between the GS3 and the EvoLTE, and I've finally decided on the Evo. However, I've been reading some complaints about it having trouble connecting and holding to LTE connections. Is this a widespread issue? I love the screen and the exterior design of the Evo, but would I be better served with the GS3 due to the better LTE connection?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] subhumanderelict:
I'd say it's pretty widespread. There are already some threads about it:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:
I think

the people having issues aren't using the newer Firmware/Kernel/Radio with the 2.13 update that was supposed to correct it.

If they're using a custom ROM, they'll need to have flashed that portion of the 2.13 OTA, manually.

If a handful can confirm this on the newer baseband & firmware then it might still be an issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
Cause of a fantastic deal I received on craigslist, I'll be making a pit stop with the EVO while the Galaxy Note 2 gets released.

I'll be keeping an eye on this problem, cause this will decide if this phone makes it to 1 of my other line or not.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] evo4ger:
im on the latest firmware and radio updates with 2.13 base on still have issues...thought the upgrade would help but nope it didnt
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 2k4mach:
ive got the latest radios and firmware and its really not much better. ive also got a s3 and ip5 in my house and the evos radio just plain sucks.

i can travel where lte is known to be and the s3/ip5 will hold and maintain the connection. my evo will be on 3g 99% of the time. When i picked up the daughter ip5 from the apple store the drive home is covered in lte. that phone kept the lte connection over the 15 mile trip, my evo........3g with a brief lte sighting while i was stopped at 1 intersection.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] morfinx:
So would you guys recommend that I go with the GS3 instead? I like the screen on the EvoLTE better (although GS3's screen's not bad), but I don't want to go with it if the LTE connection is crap.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 2k4mach:
it pains me to say this as im a die hard htc fan, but if i were buying the phone right now i would skip the evo and get the s3 or iphone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] evo4ger:
from what your saying i may just try another phone...im in san antonio sucks cause i dont like either of those phones haha
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 2k4mach:
sucks bud, 1604, i10, 410 are all blanketed in lte yet the evo will stay on 3g 99% of the time. only place ive gotten lte and it maintained it is when im at castroville airport lol.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] theoner1:
Those with problem connecting to 4g lte and not holding on connection. Are you guys on stock unrooted or rooted and running customs Rom? Just curious.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] evo4ger:
so it must be the phone or phone settings not network although i know the network is slow but it was never this slow

i dont think its due to rooting and customs ROMs cause ive had it both ways and its the same
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] morfinx:
Same here. The only smartphones I've had are all HTC. I fear I may have been a little bit obsessive in researching both phones in the months leading up to Oct such that I already have 3 EvoLTE cases and a pack of EvoLTE screen protectors, and 1 GS3 case :laugh:

I'm in Austin, so not too far away from you. Can't believe the rat bastards put LTE over all of the other major cities in TX and then skipped right over me! *fist in the air* I hear it's coming soon though, so I want to be prepared!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 2k4mach:
i hear its starting to get lit up in austin. a few people have told me 620/parmer has lte. ill be up there in cedar park this weekend to visit my sister in law. ill find an excuse to get out of the house and run down there to check it out lol.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
Latest firmware, bits, and radio and the issue is there. Also saw it on stock EVO recently. The EVO just plain sucks for LTE, no ifs ands or buts.

Terrible LTE connection

Add me as another one with LTE connection problems. I'm here in Houston and compared mine to my wife's S3 side by side with hers on LTE while mine just stays on 3G. I'm returning mine today to Amazon and will probably have to eat my activation fee since it's past 3 days. Before my wife got the S3 from BB 2 days ago, I just thought that the signal is just too weak here. Her S3 showed otherwise. Too bad since I really like the HTC other than this connection problem. I hope HTC fixes it so I can buy another one.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] morfinx:
I'm with ya. I was so set on buying the EvoLTE that I bought 3 cases and screen protectors for it already :( But alas, the LTE problem is a deal breaker.
