can anyone tell me where i can find this awesome looking app/theme for the lock screen? i've been looking around for this, it was said to be supported under liquidsmooth rc5 and rc7 i tried looking for this theme under the forum and elsewhere. so i might have some luck in this post. thanks!

if this is not in the right place, sorry i'm new to this forum since ive gotten my galaxy s3 and started using this forum (the last time i used this forum was when i had my tmobile MDA like 8 years ago lol

To me it looks like they added Widgets to the lock screen.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
Looks like stock jelly bean but then underneath it looks like a touchwiz lock screen.

I'm guessing an app
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] P06o:
More than likely is widget locker with some kind of widget for the clock...possibly uccw or zooper built

Why not just send a PM to the user and post the results back here? Its more than like a locker with widgets added, it cannot be a theme, too much there for a theme. Maybe I'm wrong...

It was posted on a website.. I forgot where I found it... it was showing top 10 lock screens. If I knew who made it then I would've asked them directly instead of posting... oh well that was one nice lock screen.. sucks we can't find the source.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] misterlinox:
Hello, guys. I have the newer line of the 16GB nexus 7's(C90K, iirc), which I just got the other day. Bootloader is unlocked, TWRP is recovery, device is rooted. I checked the md5 of the Bugless Beast flash and all matched up. Yet, every time I flashed it resulted in a bootloop that wouldn't fix itself. I thought maybe I was doing something wrong so I looked at how others were doing it: everything was just right. I factory reset and wiped system for good measure, wiped caches, and installed the ROM.

To make sure that I really wasn't doing anything wrong, I took Paranoid Android and flashed it. It was running in like two minutes. I tried the latest and the second latest of BB releases, so I don't think it's his release but something on my device? I'd appreciate some assistance, guys.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] misterlinox:
I don't mean to double post, but any ideas?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warrior1975:
How long did you let it try booting? I noticed my newer nexus 7 takes longer to flash and first boots seem to be a lot longer as well.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] misterlinox:
It was a bootloop rather than actually getting anywhere/loading anything. I let it bootloop for 30 minutes a couple times just to see, though.

How likely is it this phone will go on sale(subsidized) on black friday? Someone told me only the older phones go on sale.
[RAZR HD General] animez:
The Maxx is $200 on Amazon Wireless and Wirefly.
[RAZR HD General] Sumanji:
On Black Friday, do full retail price phones ever get subsidised?

Thanks,

[RAZR HD General] BinarySauce:
Yeah I don't need the maxx haha. And yes I mean 3rd party retailers.
[RAZR HD General] animez:
I believe the HD (non Maxx) is $150 at both of those sites. I doubt you'll find it any cheaper anytime soon.
[RAZR HD General] LifeAsADroid:
If it happens, this will be the first time. Full retail is full retail, until the phone is outdated by predecessors.

you could have used Heimdall in the past, however they have not made one for the GSIII

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jt.one:
Hey, just wanted to give you guys a quick look of this case I purchased recently- in case there are some of you who might be in the market for a decent looking yet inexpensive case.

View attachment 1467260View attachment 1467261

Front and Back shots of the case's design. The S-Line is what separates the 2 texture/materials. BTW, I have the GSM nexus, not sure how it will fit for CDMA/LTE/ETC.

View attachment 1467263View attachment 1467265

The material on the sides of the case is a bumpy rubber, allowing a more firm grip. The case material layers over the POWER and VOLUME buttons, the VOLUME side has 2 different bumps that are separated into + and - resulting in a more natural feel. The POWER button layover however, doesn't really return a tactile response when you press it, not a huge issue- more of a personal pet peeve i guess.

View attachment 1467266

There is a slight lip that surrounds the front of the phone so you won't have to worry about scratching your screen if you lay it face down. The lip won't provide rock hard protection but it is better than nothing and it should be able to absorb some of the shock if it were to fall face first.

View attachment 1467262View attachment 1467268View attachment 1467267

All the areas of the phone have proper cutouts

pogo pins

headphone jack

bottom mic

micro-usb slot

speaker

camera

top mic

not sure what that 2-hole area is below the speaker is, maybe its for attaching those string phone key-chains or whatever.

Overall, for the price I feel that this case isn't too bad, besides the PWR button pet peeve I have, I would recommend this case. I can't compare it to other cases yet, but maybe I will once I get the urge to purchase more cases. it can happen.

I got it off amazon for about $11 USD ...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dark Lazer:
Looks pretty sweet! I'm using (and have been using) the otterbox case for a year now and I'm looking for something different. Something that looks nice even though it may not provide as much protection as the otterbox. Unfortunately I was using a different case for about a week or so and my phone fell face first onto the street. The screen was fine, however there are some noticeable nicks on the top and sides now, so I'm looking for a cover that goes around the whole phone.

How long did it take to arrive? Does it only come in black? I see the other colors on the amazon page but it doesn't give the option to choose a different color when you try to buy, unless I missed it.

Thanks for the review!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jt.one:
- got it in about 2-3 business days (amazon prime shipping)

i updated OP with the different color models that I've saw.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetonez:
pics'good~

I attended to buy this one, too

and finally bought one branded benks

that looks pretty good
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dark Lazer:
Nice! I used to have Prime, but it expired and I don't really want to spend $39 right now to renew, so I think I'd have to do $5 extra for shipping, but i think it' worth it since Verizon charges like $25 for a plain old cover.

Thanks for adding the new colors btw! I can't decide which color to choose, lol.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jt.one:
good find but tbh not everybody uses ebay.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dark Lazer:
Just wanted to post and say that I got this case! I'd do my own review, but honestly the OP's review is spot on. The only "issue" I would bring up (as did the OP) is the power button response. Sometimes I'm not sure if I hit the power button or not, but it's really not as big of a deal as it sounds. I'd give it a 8.5/10 and it's worth a purchase if you need a case.

I also got the same color as the one in the pictures above, so I can't comment on the other colors, but you can't go wrong with any imo.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wolf911:
I have a similar case and looking for one for my daughter. I think I will get her this one as she wants to keep it as slim as possible and I believe they will work with the extended battery, just a bit snugger is all. Now to find a screen protector, augh, so many choices...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fpbasilio:
Why not? $1 ebay vs $11 amazon? Looks the same item. Or is it?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DirgeExtinction:
Aren't the other carriers' LTE networks hybrid networks as well? I ask this because we don't know when a network like Sprint will go 100% LTE. So even when Verizon goes all LTE, wouldn't an LTE Nexus still technically be exclusive to Verizon?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WiredPirate:
Good read, thanks for posting. Although I do not see unlimited data coming back, especially if carriers do switch completely over to data phone calls.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrBigFeathers:
I'm not sure if Google will want to have multiple hardware versions again. I really hope this theory ends up a reality, but I don't know. I would definitely like to stay on Verizon if this was the case. The naysayer in me says we won't see a real Nexus on VZW for a long time if ever. But reading this is making me rethink dropping Verizon to get the Nexus 4 and any future Nexi. I would definitely be ok with skipping the Nexus 4 if VZW ended up with a real Nexus that was only LTE (no CDMA), but it seems like a GSM carrier is the only way to go for a Nexus for the foreseeable future.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Slacker101:
Won't happen. Even with VoLTE people won't put up with not having signal if 4g isn't available. So Google most likely would never consider this an option. 4g coverage area just isn't good enough yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Its pretty dang close.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Google is notorious for changing their mind. Lets take a look at past decisions.

Nexus One was offered to Verizon but did not pass Verizon QA. Google went GSM only and subsidized through Tmo.

GSM Nexus S was offered via multiple subsidies, as well as a CDMA/WIMAX version.

Galaxy Nexus was offered to Verizon and Verizon accepted. GSM model, and two CDMA/LTE models. No GSM subsidies. (in the US)

Nexus 4 is GSM only, but still carries a a Tmo subsidy.

Nexus 5??? Obviously we can't tell from history.

AOSP

Nexus One

Nexus S

Nexus S 4G

GSM Galaxy Nexus

Then the proprietaries issue came up. All the fail blogs said that CDMA and LTE proprietaries would never be available for AOSP.

Fast forward to today. We not only have CDMA and LTE proprietaries, but Google provided them for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus, which never had plans to be on AOSP. Then they went a step further and provided a factory image for them!

There is also an experimental Xperia S AOSP project. So, now its possible that the Nexus might not be the only AOSP supported device in the future.

If you see a pattern, let me know. All I see is Google feeling out the market still. I mean, they tried out WIMAX. If that doesn't say Google is open to trying different things, what does?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
What you need to understand is Verizon is trying to decommission their entire 3G network by 2020. It is not meant to be a fall over network from LTE, once Verizon completes it LTE roll out next year they will start the 7 year process of moving everyone off of 3G data, which ultimately is just their smartphones. This is why you do not see Verizon selling 3G smartphones anymore. CDMA is old tech similar to ATTs TDMA. If you remember ATT moved from TDMA to GSM back in 2001 and it took about 7 years to really completely move over.

I think it will happen because VoLTE is basically VOIP technology which everyone is moving to, Google already has Google Voice which is basically VOIP service for your phone. Please believe that Google did not spend all that money at opening bid of the Spectrum Auction for them not to even leverage the Open Access provision, which is ultimately what they paid for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I do foresee this:

Verizon will have to be sued before they truly follow the open access provision. I don't see any other way around it. Verizon is too self-righteous.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
I agree Google is not like Apple who usually waits on new technology, most of the time they are early adopters of new tech. LTE was first made available on an Android device, which hit the Galaxy Nexus that same year. Mobile VOIP is the future, as all carriers are looking to migrate their voice services to their 4G. MetroPCS was even looking to roll out VoLTE nationwide, which is only in limbo because of the T-Mobile merger. T-Mobile is already on record saying they plan to move Voice services to their 4G HSPA+ network so that is the real issue. Long story short that is the direction technology is moving, which is why carriers are scrambling to get there next generation networks online.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
Maybe but the FCC is already hitting them with fines, so I doubt the might have the balls to continue to be difficult.

http://www.theverge.com/2012/7/31/3207193/verizon-fcc-tethering-700mhz-open-access-fine
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pierceye:
Still subject to change obviously, but Verizon just announced this week that their LTE network will cover a little over 90% of the US by the end of next year so most people are going to have access to VoLTE by then at the latest. They pissed me off pretty bad with the GNex update, but I have to give them credit for the pace that they are rolling out LTE.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgyberg:
This is good stuff! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rezoundness:
verizon wont ever allow unlocked devices and custom firmware... verizon has said they want to protect their network...

see this: http://androidcommunity.com/verizon-tells-the-fcc-that-locked-bootloaders-are-awesome-20120301/

Verizon justifies its official stance on locked bootloaders by claiming that it’s protecting “customer experience and support”: unlocked bootloaders, they argue, could cause problems for end-users, customer support staff and Verizon’s network in general. Repeating claims made at earlier points, Verizon stated that “unapproved software” could impact the wireless experience for other customers. Despite spectrum purchases from the US government in 2011, Verizon has no legal obligation to make the software on the devices it sells accessible to its customers – it only has to make access to the network available.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Invalid argument.

Point in case:

Motorola dev phones that use Verizon.

Samsung dev phones that use Verizon.

Galaxy Nexus.

All examples have unlockable bootloaders. Don't believe what all these blogs preach.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
Exactly, Verizon is not requiring OEM's to do anything, they are just encouraging them to lock down boot loaders, but in the end OEMS can do what ever they want. The other side of the issue is that developer edition phones will probably not be subsidized by Verizon as that is their choice.

But...Google sales their unlocked stuff at cost anyway out side of Verizon's grubby paws, so it doesn't really matter and Google will probably careless about what Verizon thinks and wants because they know Verizon's end game.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
Actually Verizon announced that their LTE rollout will be complete by middle of next year covering their entire 3G area. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57547595-94/verizon-plans-to-complete-its-lte-rollout-by-mid-2013/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmajpwc:
My question is this: when VoLTE rolls out across Verizon's network, will the Galaxy Nexus be able to use this? Because, if this will be possible, one could theoretically just run their phone off LTE by enabling an option in a custom rom. AOKP, the rom I'm currently using, has a setting for LTE only. Doing this, as far as I understand, would save a lot of battery by not having to be connected to the CDMA network for voice calls, and I would assume you could go as far as removing the CDMA radio from the phone. Having unlimited data I could see only good from this, although others with tiered plans might not be so welcome to this idea. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
It should support VoLTE. It has the required IMS Framework. Unless using a custom rom and the dev was an idiot and removed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sarkozy:
Missing one detail. Verizon has long term corporate goals of decommissioning the EvDo portion of the network, however the 1xAdvanced fallback will be here to stay for voice traffic on basic/feature phones and I wouldn't expect any smartphones to come without a CDMA radio for the purposes of common sense. It's been awhile since I've read about it in full degree, but CDMA will continue to live on.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redeye25:
Hi,

Someone stole my phone the other day, and I was told to report it to the police etc. However, they asked for my IMEI number so they can block it and I don't have it -_- The sticker on the box has also been ripped so I can't find out that way.

The thing is, I have an efs backup from my Galaxy before it got stolen. Is it possible to find my IMEI number from this backup without the use of a phone?

Or would I be able to use this backup on another i9000, to get the IMEI so I can report it? Cause I know someone is using my phone cause I can see them downloading games etc on my Google account but they wont reply/give back my phone.

Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KUN1:
I think it should be possible, but i have no idea how :S

But another tip if someone has stolen your phone, install Lockout from Google Play to your phone and you will see where your phone is.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
Use Plan B

Follow these easy steps to use Plan B:

1. Install Plan B to the phone that you are trying to find from the Android Market website: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lookout.labs.planb.

2. Plan B will start automatically and send your phone’s location to your Gmail address.

3. To locate again after 10 minutes, borrow a friend’s phone and text the word “locate” to your lost phone.

Using Plan B is simple, but requires access to the Android Market website and your Google account. (If you have an Android phone, you already have a Google account.)

After you install it, Plan B will start locating your phone using cell towers and GPS. On some phones, Plan B can switch GPS on automatically. Your location will keep updating for 10 minutes, and you will get an email each time it is located, whether the phone is moving or standing still. You can start the process again by texting “locate” to your number from any other phone. In order to locate your phone, we send you a text via SMS, so standard message rates apply.

Once you have found your phone, download Lookout Mobile Security for full protection.

Best to install this at night when the person may be sleeping, but does not matter as it cannot be stopped and GPS is automatically turned on, an phone location map accurate to 30++ meters sent to your gmail account within a min
