hi guys

i have been comparing these two products for a quite some time and i cannot give my final decision to which product should i buy. i am looking for a case that has a front face cover. and i found the ballistic maxx and otterbox defender. but what makes me think twice between these product is the comes with screen protector. these protector is quite think and most likely it will ruin the colors of my S3's screen. i have seen it in some product reviews posted by youtube users. the screen becomes glary. and the second thing that makes me think twice is, if i remove the screen protector, will my S3 shake around inside the case if i dont use the screen protector?

i tried contacting the customer support of otterbox they said they cannot answer my concern. and for ballistic they told me i can still use the case even if i dont use the screen protector, but i still do not understand what they really meant. and they did not gave me a straight answer to my question on what will really happen if i did not use their product's screen protector.

now i would like to ask your personal opinion about these two products, which is better? and if you guys did not use the comes with screen protector will your S3 shake around inside the case? and lastly i am just looking for a case that has a front cover. i dont really like the flip cover cases.

thanks

From what I read about the defender taking out the screen protector does not affect the snugg-ness of the phone and case.

I have the trident kraken that came with a removable screen protector, that I decided but to use.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jfree3000:
I know how you feel, i looked at both those cases and went with the Trident Kraken. Provides the same level of protection and the kickstand is a bonus. Second choice would be the otterbox.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] werked:
I personally hated the otter box, sold it as soon as I got the chance. I kept the maxx and it's the case I go for when I need a holster.

:o
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ricktat:
I took the screen protector off of my defender with no fit issues. I stopped using it because it squeeks so much. When you hold the phone. This may be due to extra flexing from the removed screen protector as it is rigid and glued in.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jeriel05:
The otterbox is an awesome case, the only thing I hate is that the outer silicone layer always stretches out. The defender for my GS3 streched out after 2 months...

[Galaxy S III Accessories] owlchemist:
I think it's just the case in general. My screen protector is still in tact and it squeaks like no other.

I'm tempted to get a new case, but can't decide. I've narrowed it down to the SG MAXX, Commuter, Kraken, PX260, and the Dualtek.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jeriel05:
I got the dualtek case yesterday, it's a really nice case. I just wish there was a compatible holster for it.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] naturecannon:
I have both cases mentioned in OP. The included screen covers are garbage. Make the screen look like crap plus particles such as sand, dirt (I am in construction field) and so on can get behind protector and scratch screen.

Standard zagg and otterbox working well for me. Zagg HD seemed to thin and marked up easy om my pocket. Otter box laps over the edge of the zagg, which so far has kept the edge from peeling on me which is a common problem for me and my use.

Ballastic has great rubber corners for drop protection but the otter box is easier to slip in and out of pocket and my preferred case.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] repo_man:
I also have both cases described in OP and have to agree to a point, the screen protectors make the screen look terrible. I went with the Ballistic for a couple reasons. 1. The Ballistic seems to slide in and out of my pocket easier (probably because it has more smooth surface than the Defender). 2. The belt clip seems more comfortable to me. The Defender belt clip seemed to sit higher on me which would gouge my hip. Not cool. 3. I got the Defender used when I bought my phone and the rubber on it seems a little loose. I don't think this will happen with the Ballistic mainly because my wife has one on her Note and it's help up extremly well. 3. I got my Ballistic Maxx on ebay for $30 in the color I wanted and I thought that was a good price. Now I need to ditch this screen protector and get a nice one.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] shoong512:
I too have both cases. I did/don't use any of the screen protectors that came with it. As for OP, it really depends what you're trying to get out of it. What's your average day like? do you work in an office? go to school? work in construction? I am a process engineer and i'm in and out of food plants and i pull my phone out to snap pictures at least 4 times a day on a daily basis for an hour or so. With that being said I NEED the protection because I have dropped it a few times. I'm currently using the Ballastic without the clip, i just hold it in my pocket. The otterbox is a bit bulkier for me and it slips easy (from hand and in and out of pocket). The ballistic on the other hand, doesn't. It gives you good grip, and isn't a pain for me to pull out of my pockets (i wear dickies for work and rvca romero ii jeans when i'm out and about or jordan basketball shorts when i feel like bumming it). I like the grip because it doesn't slip out of my pockets easily when i wear basketball shorts as the ottorbox did. HOWEVER, be warned that it does pull lint easily. It's not alot where you'll get a hairball when you pull it out of your pockets but it is there. Overall, I'm sticking with the ballastic because it offers great drop protection (as does the OB), but with the corners I personally feel it's more secure and it's not as bulky as people say it is. I'll post up pictures when i get the chance.

Hi guys

I m searching for sense rom with android 4.1.2

I tried to search on the internet but alli can find is non-sense rom.

If u guys know any sense rom with 4.1.2, i would be happy if u guys share the link here.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

There is not one (yet), the only Sense ROM can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1764005

But it's actually based on Android 4.0.4 and it's still a work in progress...

I test a few kernel and rom after updated to 1.28 an see only the boot.img that for ARHD 11.x wase success to boot and other stay at htc white screen and not boot

i tried this rom and boot.img:

Icecoldjelly 3

[HTC One X] hassan89:
That is because with the newer hboot most roms would not work without the proper kernel.You can come back to ics custom roms but not AOSP roms.You need a special kernel for AOSP roms by mdeejay.Search for it and you'll find it.
[HTC One X] Vcek:
always flash the boot.img included in the rom's-name.zip FROM THE BOOTLOADER (unless you are S-OFF)

The tricks mentioned in the forums are ONLY for using the Sense+ roms while avoiding new leaked hboot's(1.23/1.28)

Maybe im wrong because I never used no-Sense roms, but ive read enough posts about these problems and their fixes.
[HTC One X] HEshghi:
I thin developers write the hboot require for their's roms to users check it before flash any costom rom

Pls help me. adobe flash player not working on ics 4.04 Galaxy Tab 10.1 p7500
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DefQoN_BE:
well...unfortunately Adobe Flash Player has stopped developing for Android 4.0 and higher,

but you still CAN use Adobe Flash Player on your tablet, here's how it works:

1. go to http://www.filecrop.com/adobe-flash-player-11-apk.html and download the APK

2. install the APK in your CWM ( boot into recovery > install zip from SD card > downloads > Adobe Flash Player v11.1.111.7.apk > install yes

3. once you've done that reboot your device

4. open your STANDARD web browser

5. go to settings > advanced > enable plugins

and than it should work, but it's a little laggy on my device or sometimes my standard browser crashes because of the flash player... anyway, it works!
[Nook Color General] mr72:
Hey guys --

I did a search and while there is much discussion of deep sleep problems, there is no clear way I could easily find to identify the cause.

I have CM7.20, the MiRaGe latest build on my NC, with the settings listed in my thread (see the sig). Recently I noticed that it is not entering into deep sleep, indicated by losing ~20% battery while it is asleep overnight in about 8 hrs. Battery results tell me it's "WiFi" taking like 30% of the battery, which seems quite odd, since I had it set to turn off WiFi while the screen off unless connected to the charger.

Any clues on how to identify the problem with deep sleep?

As for usage, I am using my NC 99% of the time with the following apps:

Moon+ Reader (probably 70% of time)

YouVersion Bible app (most of the rest of the time)

Dolphin Browser HD (maybe 2% of the time)

Enhanced Email and MailDroid - very occasionally but they are checking mail on 15 min intervals when wifi is on.

I have a ton of other apps installed but I almost never use them except for these.

Any help on how to determine what is causing the NC to not go into deep sleep will be immensely helpful. I have a 2-week Euro business trip coming up next month and I would really like to solve this before then.

Thanks!
[Nook Color General] envygreen:
Better Battery Stats might help. Try turning off sync before bed and see if you still lose 20%. If so, it's definitely some app that's the culprit. Grab something that will tell you what program is using data and how much/how often and you should be able to isolate it pretty quick.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
OK, but it should be turning off wifi, and therefore sync for ALL apps, when it is asleep. Can an app override this setting? That's my guess, is some app is doing this. How can I ID that?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Like envygreen said use that app to track wakelocks. Even if wifi is off, some app may be applying a wakelock to try to sync.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
Alright, I'm on it :)
[Nook Color General] mr72:
So last night I finished charging it and read for a couple of minutes, then put it to sleep to see how it went overnight.

My Wi-Fi sleep policy is set to turn off wifi when the display is off.

When I got up this morning I checked it and it had lost over 10% battery over night, and I checked BetterBatteryStats and I think it is going into deep sleep but maybe not shutting off wifi.

I have attached the screenshots from BetterBatteryStats, and I think I need help interpreting them and finding the cause.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
ok, so here I am replying to my own thread... If I am reading this right it seems to be looking like my wifi is on the entire time, not only when the screen is on. Is this the right way to read this? In this case, it looks like "Wi-Fi sleep policy" being set to "When screen turns off" is not actually working... right?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
It sure looks that way to me too. It says wifi on 8 hours. Did you try toggling the setting a few times? Also you are on Mirage and he may have done something in his tinkering that messed that setting up.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
yeah I did toggle the setting on and off, and in fact before I had it set to "On during sleep if plugged" for a long time, recently changed it, thinking maybe this was the cause.

But it does appear that maybe this is what is killing the battery. There doesn't appear to be any network activity when the screen is off, just looks like the wifi radio is powered up.

Any advice?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Switch to CM7.2 stable?
[Nook Color General] mr72:
Hmm. that seems like an extreme step, but maybe ... wonder how much of the snappiness I will lose.

EDIT: OK I switched to CM7.2 stable. Nice I didn't seem to lose any settings. Let's see how it goes. Thanks for the advice, I'll report back here if it still does the same thing.

Also uninstalled beautiful widgets... figured maybe that could be causing an issue.

Oh, and I probably had a SOD kernel patch applied... perhaps that was the problem too :)

guess I should change only one variable at a time for a good test, but in reality I just want to get it fixed and not really diagnose it.
[Nook Color General] lfd1351:
I was having a similar problem...what I did was run the V6 supercharger script, granted i am running CM9 atm but it took care of any problems I had with battery life and wifi signal.
[Nook Color General] ewingr:
Question: does having WiFi on keep the phone from going into deep sleep at all?

I have found that my phone is not going into deep sleep. I checked what is holding wake locks, and the time with wake locks is way less than the time the phone has the screen off, so it appears it is not deep sleeping, even though there are not wake locks.

I have an extended battery, so I get good battery life, but always interested in improving it. But I also have this thought that if I have to turn everything off, and only synch when I turn the screen on, that is not ideal either.
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Get CpuSpy free on play store. It will tell you exactly how much deep sleep you are getting.

Having wifi on all the time should not prevent deep sleep. Only when things use it does it come out of deep sleep.
[Nook Color General] ewingr:
I have CPUSpy Free, and that is how I know I am not getting deep sleep. My challenge now is to identify why.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
OK, so it seems that CM7.20 stable definitely fixes things. I didn't flash the SOD fix, so maybe the SOD fix was preventing deep sleep before, or maybe something else in the kang build was preventing deep sleep with wifi on when the screen is on.

However the better battery stats still seems to say my wifi is never actually going off. I am not sure I am interpreting the results correctly. It looks like the wifi is on all the time even though it's set to turn off when the screen is off. But I can let the NC sit on my night stand overnight and lose only a couple of % where it was like 10+% before. I still think my problem was due to some app that updated and not the ROM because the problem started weeks after I last updated the ROM.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MUSASHI66:
Question for all you experienced custom ROM installers: is there a custom JB rom in the wild that has everything working? I've been thinking about JB since it came out, and now I am reading that it might be another few months before we have the official T-Mobile version. I am finally tempted to root and do a custom rom.

So, is there a fully working, stable Cyogen Mod 10 out there? I am not interested in nightly builds. I would just like the experience one gets from a Nexus phone that is running vanilla JB.

Thanks!!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Jigga0o7:
I say T-Mobile because the article is specifically referencing them. I've gone through all of the recent roms created by great devs like DJIntrigue which seem to be quite ready for prime time so it doesn't make much sense that there needs to be more "months" for a final release. We're not talking usability here as I assume most of us root our devices but it would be great to have faster availability of the latest Android firmware in case we wanted to run that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Babydollll:
The problem is carriers want to add in their own apps and "test" the update for compatibility with their networks...not to mention the majority of users aren't text savvy (or rooted, for that matter) and the carrier doesn't want to be flooded with "I updated mai fone and it's no worky no mo'" calls....

We may want faster availability, the carriers want people to pay upgrade fees (and/or buy devices outright) and less headaches....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Dj's and Wild's jb roms are fairly heavily modified. The leaks they are based on are still buggy and horrible on battery life.

I for one would much rather wait a few more months and get a solid release.

Besides, I'm willing to bet that most who are getting impatient waiting for the official release will wind up going back to custom roms within a couple of days anyway.

Plus, with how good Frosty and XquiziT are, you could pretend its based of the official release and be just as happy! (If I wanted to blame anyone it'd be them for raising the bar and forcing Tmobile and Sammy back to development!) ;)

I honestly don't get all the impatience. With how hyped some folks are getting over it I can only see them being disappointed! Then we get to read all about how lame Sammy and Tmobile are for not taking the time to make it better!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] afbengochea:
Three weeks ago and no leak? :(
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
No leaks anymore from samsung period! For any device.

It'd have to be leaked from tmobile for us to get it now.

That's how I understand it anyway. If you follow the build versions, there would've probably been about 9 other leaks by now, had they kept their systems up like they were.

(Last leak was LI8, new ota is LIJ) 9 builds in between. Also I'm guessing the jb update must not actually be ready. (Maybe they found something they didn't like)

They seem to be doing what I expected with having another official ICS update before JB.

I could be wrong of course. Time will tell.
