[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] le0.br4zuc4:
No phone in the US has 1080p screen yet, HTC announced the first device to have 1080p resolution display this week, the HTC J Butterfly. Available initially in Japan, should be the HTC 5" coming to VZW sometime in the near future.

Back to the question, The Droid RAZR and GS3 are very, very similar.

If you want a phone with more options out of the box, better looking and design... well, you should go with the GS3. The RAZR will most likely receive updated faster than Samsung. There's isn't much of a skin on the new Moto's phones so if you want an almost true Android experience, updates sooner... in this case the RAZR is your option.

I personally don't think updates should the reason to purchase a phone, with the dev communities we have now a days, I'm sure there will always be good qualities ROMs out there.

Hi,

I wont to flash MIUI on my xperia S without flash the kernel because i'm afraid to..

Wich room I need to download and how?

I'm jet installed CWM and unlock the bootloader too.

Thk on advice.

Ps: sorry for my english
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nrdl:
I also have locked bootloader, to flash it you need to to edit update-script inside the zip file with the rom.

I've uploaded 2.9.28 file to other user, so he could test it. If you like you can do it also:

https://rapidshare.com/files/3490018680/2.9.28.zip

If you want I can also upload last version 2.10.19, I've flash it today, just let me know.

Hi, why cant i charge my play trough the usb cable?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
I don't know, why don't you ask someone from tech support?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leetxperia:
You can.

Get a new cable, its around 2-4euros.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d0pecr4wler:
Some more details would be nice.

Does your phone just won't charge, while connected to your pc via USB,

or do you also can't get any access through USB to your phone?!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordBattleBeard:
It depends where the USB is connected to. Not all computers (and other appliances) support charging external devices through USB.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazymonkey05:
as the above poster said not all computers support charging but also some cables have diferent connectors so some may only support data transfer and nothing more
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AverageAmit:
This is the orriginal cable that i got with the play, it does transfer data, the red light which shows that its charging is off, the battery icon shows that its charging, while actually its not charging at all.

my USB does support charging because my Ipod can be charged from it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazymonkey05:
Ok well you have two options you can try a difrent charger and see if its just the cable or call sony

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC=Hero:
What problem are you referring too? I just tried it to be sure and I can access the files on my external SDcard using a file browser app I got from the Play Store. For instance, I can install an apk that is stored on my external SD-card.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amirsat2012:
so what have i to do?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC=Hero:
You could try backing up the data of the card and reformat it. Or try a spare micro SD card if you have one.

I know that probably won't work but it's worth a try and honestly I can't think of anything else.

Try several file browser apps to see if that makes a difference.

I assume you've already tried to reboot and remount the card?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amirsat2012:
i will try

now i solved the problem by using Explorer..i found my files in emmc

i think it is not a card problem because when i tried to use it with GB or ICS rom it works

you dont HAVE to get the hTC branded screen it was just a nice polish off feature for me
[HTC One S] MadJoe:
Thanks for the write up and links.

I think replacing the screen is a little overboard, but to each their own. If you don't replace the screen or the camera cover (strangely I prefer the blue), it saves you $167, so not a bad price to spruce this thing up a little. Too bad there's no way to stuff more memory into it while it's open.

[HTC One S] BUILDER88:
Sounds like an idea I could similarly apply....

I'm looking for the grey housing. Mine came with quite a buckle but I was too happy about getting my new device so I never sent it back.

Where can I buy it? Shipment to Germany should be possible.

Thanks in advance! :)
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
Doesn't the EU body come in grey????? i could have sworn looking at parts i saw a EU grey *housing*

http://www.amazon.com/Original-Genuine-Housing-Repair-HTC/dp/B008MRADHI

or you could do white im sure

if you would like to purchase my old housing it is 3 weeks old and is in fair condition and i do paypal

The place i order form is USA based so shipping might take a while to germany. Might want to look for a hong kong based seller.

you SHOULD be able to do the same thing with the grey and blue housing

i am uploading 100+ pictures right now guys So standby :D
[HTC One S] iheartn1:
cool mod, comes out to less than $60 if people dont replace their screen which i dont recommend from sky star trader. i work at a cell phone repair shop and sky star trader by far has given us the highest amount of bad digitizers so we completely stopped using them. one time we even ordered a digitizer for a rezound and the light and proximity sensor ports were so tinted the phone kept thinking it was next to an ear. theyre just poorly made and should be avoided
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
I ordered mine from amazon to be honest for that reason
[HTC One S] Kamilr97:
Do you have any problems with reception? The T-mobile version has plastic on the bottom for the radio but the EU one doesn't. Does it affect anything?
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
That piece is just plastic the antenna runs from the main board down the right side of the frame to the bottom board
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
See nothin there
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
This black wire is the antenna
[HTC One S] newbieandroid:
Instead of tearing apart the phone to get to this piece would I be able to trim up the plastic piece to use black UK body on the phone?
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
no the top of the midframe will not seat right in the EU body
[HTC One S] jandari:
Im interested what quality is the new black body. Can you post some pictures of the top, the usb port and the beats audio logo?
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
Sure ill link some high res versions
[HTC One S] :
Brother I am just worried about the blue plastic at the top post a picture of your hack , is there a way to buy the plastic piece for the eu model from somewhere
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
I saw a couple floating around but not at the time of posting
[HTC One S] :
Zarboz I am thinking of replacing my housing along with both the plastic covers , I want blue grey body only is the replacement of mid frame necessary ?? And which body is needed?? Which one from these two ?? The one with complete bottom or the one without complete bottom?? Please tell me asap , my phone has the plastic thingy at the bottom
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
You have a tmo version get the one with the missing bottom bar

[HTC One S] syrelyre:
Zarboz i have to give you credit for doing it, even though it's pretty expensive.
[HTC One S] Rozamar:
Hi guys,

thanks for this thread.

I want to replace my housing.

I have the EU S4 black/red model. I think its one of those with the chipping issue, but not much damage, until the I dropped it which cut the top corner to straight 45 degree white line and scratches my finger every time I use it in landscape mode.

Anyway wanted to ask, since some of you already tried/used for some time where I can get genuine/original black casing with top and bottom covers. I'm from EU (east) so USA is not really good option for me, shipping will be more expensive than the casing itself...

As far as I know there is one from eBay-UK and one from parts4repair.

Also after removing the bottom plastic cover, as I understand it has glue to it to keep it in place. Do I need to replace that on the reassembly or just heating it back and pressing will work with the old one? Or it has something else to keep it in place other than the glue?
[HTC One S] Tyler DeLarge:
If i want change only "housing"?
[HTC One S] Tyler DeLarge:
Uppp
[HTC One S] invasion2:

idk what you mean?

It s possible?
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
if you read i only replaced my screen cuz i broke my old one
[HTC One S] Rozamar:
Excuse me if I'm really bad reader, but what did you use Adhesive strips (SUPER IMPORTANT!!!!) for? Did you need it for reattaching the bottom cover or did the new one came with preattached tape?

Guys anyone tied the parts at: parts4repair? Are they genuine especially is there a chance the black cover is one with Mcroarc oxidation effect?
[HTC One S] dajones123:
I'm looking to do this soon as I've cracked my screen. Could I swap out the blue lens cover for the red one and miss the fit problem altogether?

[HTC One S] dajones123:
Can a LCD and touch glass be fused together by myself with adhesive strips? It works out about £40 cheaper to buy them seperate.
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
the adhesive came predone on mine

i just had to peel off the protection and the adhesive was exposed and pre applied to the part i purchased i would suggest buyin the unit htat has the lcd and digi as one
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
this post made it to xda portal!

i also added a 2nd line to my tmob account with a black n red One S

i think the eu frame feels different than the tmob one

thats just me !!

also i have more pics and will detail the replacement of the LCD/Digitizer as well since that is what got me started on all this
[HTC One S] Stereo8:
If you want the T-Mobile logo gone, you can try this instructable! :D
[HTC One S] :
Do you think the black mobile housing is same as the blue t mobile one ?? I mean without the complete bottom , if it is we can avoid the middle frame swap
[HTC One S] Zarboz:
i will post pictures

it is identical to the grey frame with the split in the chin piece etc upon deconstruction it is identical to the grey frame
[HTC One S] PasSlert:
Wow, thanks, really. I had the same idea, because i wanted to give my friend a new look... Now I can customize any part of my phone.

TYVM !
[HTC One S] :
Please post pics , but there are no black t mobile housings on eBay or amazon
[HTC One S] dajones123:
What purpose does the chin piece serve? If any?
[HTC One S] :
I think it just helps to lift the middle frame which has screen ,motherboard , battery etc ; out from the body for easy disassembly ! Same as in HTC sensation
[HTC One S] fusk:
I don't get the point of this.
[HTC One S] dajones123:
Bit pointless having 2 different frames. I've got the one solid piece so have not seen this cut out.

[HTC One S] Zarboz:

[HTC One S] yeti-roots:
I was just about to post the same question. I guess we're not alone then...

I also prefer the grey/blue over the black/red... and from what I can tell on the innerwebs, the black ones have more issues with the surface chipping off.

I did get a scratch on my grey aluminum though.. stupid sharp usb plug! why can't they make the damn things round?! Or maybe a nice egyptian cotton. Preferably in grey.
[HTC One S] dr_rick13:
Zarboz, do you have any idea as to whether the EU sim and speaker cover would work on the t-mob housings? I got eu sim and speaker cover and having a difficult time getting them to fit...
[HTC One S] PcFish:
The EU and T-MO backs are different. I forget which, but one of them doesn't have a bar at the bottom.
[HTC One S] dr_rick13:
lol yeah man, I already have the Tmobile black housing, im wondering about the parts that cover sim card and speakers.
[HTC One S] Goatshocker:
Seems like an awful lot of work and expenses, just to change the look slightly on the device.

Or did I misunderstood? Is there any other difference that makes the T-mo 'worse' than the eu shell?

Granted, I havnt looked much at other HOS's, so Im not sure about the differences other than the color.
[HTC One S] xxquicksh0txx:
Its all about the color. But if you buy the black Tmous housing all you do is slip it in and tighten some screws.
[HTC One S] dr_rick13:
this is true, but the EU sim and speakers cover don't fit with T-Mobile housing and its literally impossible to find black T-Mobile sim and speakers cover :( I've been looking for weeks.
[HTC One S] xxquicksh0txx:
I wonder if you could get someone who has a black T-Mobile One S to call HTC and get a replacement Sim cover. Maybe even a bottom?
[HTC One S] dr_rick13:
maybe man, don't think people will wanna do that though.. am gonna try to get a black one from T-Mobile.. if not my contract expires in a month or so and the one x+ is a sexy piece of technology ;)

Zarboz bro I have the black eu housing with top and bottom cover and I managed to open my phone and remove the T-Mobile housing but I was not able to remove the bottom plasticy so I assembled it back , and I am yet to receive the original midframe and top plastic thingy so waiting till then

Sent from my hTC One S (S4)
[HTC One S] :
One thing more zarboz , you aplied the bottom cover without the internal plastic thing ? The T-Mobile version has a chin attached to the plastic , but eu version's disassembly shows there is also a plastic piece just without the chin attached to it

Accidental disassembly

I already have the black version, so this may somewhat off-topic.

I've accidentally removed the bottom rear cover (the bit that holds the speaker), and I'm now unable to snap it back onto the housing.

Is it supposed to snap back, or do I need to glue it on somehow?
[HTC One S] arnaldus:
Really useful dude :)
[HTC One S] shannonknable:
Just a thought. Wouldn't it have been a lot cheaper and easier to just paint the pieces you removed? It's a cool mod, but seems a bit expensive for what it is.
[HTC One S] dzweru:
First you have to clean the old paint, which is not exactly a paint... Most durable is dust painting and baked in oven. Also may try black spray and after that 3-4 layers of colourless automotive lack.

Second you have to buy the plastic covers at the top and the bottom.

For the camera ring I don't know how to make it red without destroying anything :)

[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
I just sent the Acer Iconia a700 back to Amazon because of the over heating issue. I am afraid of the long term effects on the internal components. I ordered the Infinity TF700 but not the mobile docking station (KB). The primary reason is the money I had to pay for the TF700 and the WOF (Wife Outrage Factor). The tab itself is $120.00 more than the Acer and could not justify a KB (another $120.00)at this time. I know the Dock offers more functionality to the tab ie;longer battery time, additional usb port, etc. but do I really need the KB to enjoy the TF700? I have never used a external KB with my other tabs only the virtual one. Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
In my opinion, the greatest advantage vs external keyboard is the extra battery and using it at a stand. The extra battery will give you a full day of usage with out charging. If most of the time you have a place to plug in your device and not mind to hold the tablet then an external keyboard should be fine. I personally think it worth it, specially I watch a lot of movies and enjoy the additional power from the dock keyboard.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
I sent my A700 back for the overheat thing too...

I didn't get the keyboard dock mainly because I always hold the tab in portrait unless watching TV or forced into landscape by an app.

The dock would be a nice addition tho.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I have a dock. Is it necessary for me? Not at all. Do I use it? Maybe once a month but....

When travelling it's a life saver :laugh:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Joeful:
I love the keyboard. It's great when you want to extend your battery. It's also easier to use the device while the charger is plugged in.

Sent from my ADR6425LVW
[Asus Transformer TF700] ShadowLea:
The keyboard dock has a couple of advantages:

- Day extra battery charge (charges when the tablet is not in use, as well)

- USB (Main pro! Extra storage options!)

- SD slot

- Stand

- Keyboard can be used to control the apps (i.e. spacebar for pause)

- Screen protection during travel and storage (Closes like a laptop).

It depends on what you want to do with it.

Do you only browse websites?

Only play a few games like Angry Birds?

Watch a few photos?

Do you only use it at home?

Do you only read a few book son it every now and then?

Nothing more?

Don't get the dock, it's not worth it.

Do you play Games? The big ones? (The dock serves as a stand+extra battery, which is nice since you can connect a controller to the tab.)

Do you watch films and entire series?

Are you on the road a lot?

Do you intend to write entire documents?

Do you require more storage space/an USB port?

Do you need/want the extra protection whilst travelling?

Get the dock.
