Great screen protector !

I'd be remorse to not report that I seem to have somehow accidentally happened upon a FANTASTIC screen protector!

It seems almost bullet-proof to me, and compared to all previous sp's I've had on various iPhones in the past, by far the best I've ever seen. Moreover, absolutely no problems with the UAG case, not the slightest hint of any edge roll-up.

Bought it at our local AT&T (authorized dealer 'Coastal 1') store; looks like an AT&T store, but not a corporate store:

Brand: MYBAT

* front of package: Twin Pack - Package Included: 2 Protector Films - I Cleaning Cloth

* front of package: SAM-L710 (Galaxy S III) - Galaxy S III

* rear of package SKU & barcode: SAMSIILCDSCPRTW (barcode) 885126030403

* $9.99

. . .again, nicest sp I've ever used. Can't hardly tell it's even on the phone. And, hardly shows fingerprints. The Radio Shack manager who sold me the phone was pretty impressed with this sp as well, after I swung back by and showed the phone to her with it on; she was really checking it out, asking me where I got it, which kinda verified to me it must be a pretty good one, I guess. :cool:

Just had the zagg hd installed by my nearest BB store who for once didn't charge me to install. It looks great and I can put my UAG case back on the phone now. so I'm thrilled. Best of luck to all in finding what works best for them.

just get techdefense (formerly ghost armor), great with sgs3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
I have the the XtremeGuard with no roll up at all.. fits perfectly like if they were made for each other. Its same as zagg, but without the orange peel effect. It is grippy so dont expect smooth swiping, typing etc.. But over all great protector and for $1.99 shipped what a steal!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cgardnervt:
Still no issues with the case and SP? i also have the HD and love it! Just afraid it will make mt SP lift when I install the case Monday! :P
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Alien1099:
I'm also interested in any suggestions. The protector that came with the case seems to be alright but I installed it slightly crooked and it's slightly off center at the top of the phone, so I'd like to replace it. I want something that's as smooth as glass and won't peel away from the phone and won't develop an orange peel effect on it. It doesn't need to be super thick to protect the phone from a blow from a sword, just thick enough to take a light scratch so the screen doesn't get permanently damaged.

So many people say XXXXXXXX protector is freaking amazing then somebody else says it's crap. It's hard to know what is good and what is not and I don't have any experience with them.

I was actually thinking of getting the DBA smooth as glass protector. I'm just nervous about a wet install protector.

Edit: After reading this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1878403

I went ahead and ordered two DBA protectors (2 for the price of 1 thanks to the sale) from the DBA website. I got an extra one for if/when the first gets a scratch that's too annoying or if I screw up the first install..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IAmCacao:
Hey guys, I'm new to XDA, so I hope I'm not being a noob :D. Just today I rooted my note 2 (international version) with Odin. After that I did the following: installed adaway, installed triangle away (and reset my counter), installed rom toolbox lite and through that changed the system font, after it asked me to reboot to finalize it and my phone hasn't turned on since. I had rebooted multiple times between rooting and changing the font, so I don't think the problem in with triangle away or adaway (but I can't be sure). My phone is just stuck on the pulsing samsung logo. What I have tried so far: redoing the root process through odin, taking out battery and restarting, trying to reset through the recovery menu and wiping cache.

Is it possible that my phone is in brick? Any suggestion? I'm hoping the fact that I can access the recovery menu is a good sign!

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks so much!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kiahnlliya:
It's not bricked since you can still get to recovery and download modes!

I tried looking around on the net a little and there are some reports of bootloops after using Rom Toolbox to change the font, so that might be the problem here.

I would just re-stock and re-root with Odin and not use Rom Toolbox to change the font.

[LG Optimus 3D] sketch2k278:
The Dark Lestat's Biohazard rom is the rom I always go back to when after testing other roms... has multiple themes, very smooth plus it's most versatile when it comes to basebands
[LG Optimus 3D] bether:
I tried few custom ROMs but my favorite is DNA_GB 3.3.3 V21E base.

That rom is the best for smooth records of video even not overclocked is so fast for every HD games :)

I belive that ICS will be the same so fast.
[LG Optimus 3D] Guantonio:
Totally Agree!

1st: Promethius Rom v1.5 21E

2nd: ThiaZ O3D v2.8

3rd: Acura Team 3D Max 2 v3.1

Though, it is more down to which works best for your needs.

A rom that works well for me with my mixture of launchers, themes and apps may not play nice with someone else's choice of tweaks.

For example, I had several issues with Go Launcher and Go SMS on Promethius Rom. Phone would fine most of the time but occasionally run hot and killed the battery in minutes, even after killing background apps.
[LG Optimus 3D] CreamyJustice:
I'm liking the look of that I'm beginning to think there's to much choice? Cant believe i missed some of these :silly:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tankmurdock:
Since I am new and unable to post in the developers section, I just wanted to say thanks specifically to WildChild and and the others who made the sweet ROM for the Galaxy S3. I currently am running v29 and it works awesome. Very little heat issues almost no flicker issues. Battery life is much better also. I am enjoying it thoroughly. I have tried many others (my rom count is @ 18) and I've only had my phone a month. This one by far is the best. I am new to the Android Development and your hard work and directions are superb! Thanks to everyone!!

Okay im planning on Porting Rasbean Jelly to the Toroplus variant as Dreams and others from the Black Bean thread know. Just some questions.. Ubuntu 12.10 was just released and that is what i am planning on installing since it now supports my laptop. Will that be sufficient? I remember hearing some issues with compiling on it. Also how much space should i dedicate to the install? I planned on dedicating around 250GB but all im doing is syncing Rascarlo's git with his permission of course and then adding the necesseties for the toroplus (if thats even what im needing to do). And compiling? Do i honestly need that much space? Also will i need Swap to help my Laptop build? It has 6GB's of RAM and i hear the Minimum for building is around 16GB's otherwise it will take quite a while. Any insight would be great :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dreamsforgotten:
I already spoke with you but i recommend two hundred gigs really two fifty minimum hdd. I roll with 8 gigs but compile time is horrendous since jelly bean. I'm sure almost all distributions can be set up to develop debian arch mint ubuntu etc but each have to be done so desperately. I'll work on write ups for each java 6 being the biggest hurdle for most new developers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
How long do you think it'll take? Using 6GB of RAM. And I have a quad core amd at 2.0ghz?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dreamsforgotten:
8 gig 1.2 gig quad core 8 hours. Use ccache when you build I would go 50 gigs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
You'll have to explain that. :confused:

That's quite ridiculous... now in doubting it... :( I don't think it'll handle that stress... it is a laptop I have a fan for it and it has a pretty good exhaust fan but that's still ass long as time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dreamsforgotten:
Yeah on the build android page there are directions for setting up ccache you have to add a line to your bash rc and run a command before you build. When I head home, I'll add a page in tutorials explaining that further, it was next on the list.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Talking to motcher he says he uses ccache and with his dualcore 1.7ghz and 2 GB of RAM it takes him 3hrs and 1.5 after he builds ccache.

Instructions added here http://dreamsforgotten.net/ccahce.html Note the actual ccache folder difference in the command? Changed in JB.

Galaxy Nexus, I'd say don't do that. If you have a machine even remotely capable put you a linux partition, through VM if you must :(, and compile you a version from source. With step by step instructions those too mods wouldn't be that hard. First off, by decompiling you have to decompile both stock rom and a rom with the features you want. Then you have to put those changes in your file in smali which is bytecode aka machine readable. If you know my history, you know I have done this before with the Nexus S because the mod I wanted to copy was samsung proprietary code but in no other circumstance would I want to do that. You need to sync google source, add in the files for your phone, and then do some searching on github to find the two mods your wanting. You copy that code into your source and compile. It's more difficult than that and I just hit you with a lot so start at it, and when you reach a snag come back for help. But...if you must do this in smali...this is what you missing based on what you say you already started. decompile systemui.apk decompile frameworks/base decompile settings.apk. Find (whatever rom you find source for your mod) their version of the file rom control.apk. Copy that in your zip (obviously last step). Diff merge your stock decompiled 3 files against the rom's smali files. Same way as source, use github to find the affected lines of code. Copy over all code, all images, all xml files that are missing. Fix what's there and altered. Settings.apk is going to have a file in src/com/android/settings/foo/foo/ called settings.smali. This file is where your mods in rom control are going to be able to speak to mods you just did to the frameworks/base.

ubuntu 12.04 64bit: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1863547

its all you need. just replace the repo down there with rasbean's or whatever you want to compile. 12.04 has been a terrible pain in the ass for me, at some point i had to revert back to 11. but back then i couldnt find a nice and compact manual, so this one should guide you through.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Yeah that's what I feared... didn't feel like having to reinstall... I've been using 12.10 not .04 I know motcher uses 12.04 just fine. Going to get a bootable for it hopefully it likes my laptop.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dreamsforgotten:
I prefer debian over ubuntu now, with any distro that don't work with you pc out the box you probably need a proprietary kernel version. If you have a lap top that sound doesn't work you'll def need one. Additional files may need to be loaded for Wi-Fi support as well. All of these have pretty easy guides to get the job done. Be sure to set Linux up completely before establishing the build environment.

Nope, blame google code for that. His issue is with camera that's a binary, your is building a stock app in source, which I think the reason they stop if from building now is you should be flashing gapps anyway with a zip.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dreamsforgotten:
Got your bib? Here comes the airplane... rofl

vendor/samsung/toroplus/proprietary/

In there are some files, this you know. Also there a few apks. BIP hidden menu, etc. You already deleted sprint extentions.apk because it was force closing. The android.mk file that outlines how the compiler should copy over the proprietary file. You deleted the traces of sprintextentions.apk. You deleted a call to that app from the bottom of another file too was it vendor-blobs.mk ? You need to put Gallery.apk inside vendor/samsung/toroplus/proprietary and add it to the two files you removed sprint extentions from. Where do you optain a copy of Gallery.apk? I'd suggest the known working OTA from Sprint, or "that guy that built rasbean" lulz. Find a working rom, download it, and grab Gallery.apk. On the few versions of Jellin I built, the Gallery.apk along with quite a few other gapps files were altered after the build was finished. I was lazy then got wrapped up in designing a website lol. I'm teaching you how to set up the environment from scratch so you can overcome issues like this. First you have to understand how the compiler copies over already signed apks into your build and signs them in a way that doesn't break them or conflict with the rest of the apps. You have experience with how that happens by editing Android.mk in proprietary and vendor-blobs.mk in toroplus.

Google a superuser package. Take the app and put it in /system/app. Then take the su binary in the xbin folder of the zip and put that in /system/xbin of the ota. Then add the setting perms line from the updater-script of the flash able zip to the ota one. It should be right under where all the other things get their perms set.
