Anybody going to use plasti-dip?

Think it would act as a great 'slim case' but dont think it would be very protective.

Would be better for scratches ect when i think about it...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
Changed my mind :p I may get a Black Bumper case (if they exist), just because it's light (don't want anything covering the back)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnyg1097:
Probably not.

I never cared for cases on my phones. Usually just a screen protector and sometimes a printed skin on the back. Although if the glass on the back is as prone to breaking as people are making it seem to be, id buy the most minimal case I could find. Phones arent made to look this good to just have a case slapped onto it.

Don't really want to case it up as it's so pretty! Also cases add so much bulk.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dyslexicpenguin:
I got one of those cheap $5 TPU cases off ebay, the s-line one. I didn't expect much, but it's actually not bad at all, especially for the money. I like the phone more with the case on. It's a lot easier to hold on to, the case adds a lot of nice grip to the phone. It doesn't add any major bulk. Even with the case on, it's still thinner then my old env3 that I've been using the last 3 years. It's not the nicest looking case, but I care more about it being protected, and the only thing I look at/admire on the regular is the screen.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ackliph:
Now I bought me a clear TPU and I don't mind it. Yes it's very cheap and doesn't hug the phone perfectly... but it'll be worth it when it takes it's first drop. :D

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elliot.newnham:

I bought a $10 black and grey bumper case from Amazon. Then I just threw on a screen protector and left the back protection on that came with the device out the box. I think that should suffice while also keeping the phone looking good. The phone seems way to light for the screen to crack if it's dropped with a bumper on it.

I always said I wouldn't and I bought one (http://www.amazon.com/SF-Matte-Black-Feeling-Premium/dp/B00A81H176/ref=pd_bxgy_cps_img_y) just to see how it feels and I've kept it on ever since.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rulinglionadi:
I have contatced some Developers too but just wanted more opinions..

Here`s the problem.

Once my phone hits 50% and if i try using it after that,The screen starts to flicker..

Strange waves start appearing on the screen {Top to Bottom}

If i continue using... the waves increases and after few seconds the phone Switches Off

After around 10Minutes If i try to switch it back on...It switches on with 1% Battery...

If i put to charge it satrts from 1% if i restart once while charging it starts from 50%

So what is happening here and what is wrong with my phone..

I went back to Rooted KL3 Ginger Bread (I did not have this problem in Ginger Bread)

I flashed a safe ICS (Alliance)

It started again...

Flashed Alliance JB and it still remains,I have tried Rocket,Chrack,Crash and all Roms out there..

I did some research and got to know that sammy`s ics update had this problem,

I am open for all kinds of suggestions here :fingers-crossed::crying:;):D:angel::confused:

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] 30secondstosam:
Hi guys. Just a quick query - I was recording 1 or 2 short videos at a gig I went to recently. When I got home I checked the quality and the picture was fantastic. Fair play. The sound was awful though. When it got too loud it couldn't deal with it. Something which my iphone (shudders) could. Is there an app that can handle high levels of volume when recording at gigs for example?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Pensive Parrot:
If the microphones are maxing out then there's nothing any app could do to fix it. You'll need to muzzle the microphone holes somehow, perhaps your fingers might be enough. There are holes at both ends of the phone because it's stereo input.

Hi there,

I have a few questions about HSPA+ (dual carrier at 42Mbps) since I'm very likely going to buy a Nexus 4 which would be my first phone to support it. Right now my data plan (with Orange France) only allows me to use HSPA, and it would cost me about 10 more euros a month to switch to HSPA+ and more data.

Now I'm willing to pay for it, but only if it's really better, so I have a few questions :

- Does HSPA+ really improve things in real life ?

- Does it improve bandwidth only in places where you have very good HSPA reception, or does it also help in places where you don't have outstanding reception ?

- Does it usually impact battery life ?

Thanx.
[Networking] Kaeghord:
Hello,

Actually, for your first question, it depends on how you use your connection. If you use it to browse the Internet, or receive your mails, I'm not sure you really need that.

If you stay on the facts, 3G+ (or HSPA) provides you a downloading bandwith at 7,2 Mb/s and 5.8 Mbit/s for the upload.

3G++ (or HSPA+) provides you

theorical

downloading bandwith at 42 Mb/s and 23 Mb/s for the upload (it's the standard theorical upload and I'm not sure that it can be reached actually).

For your second question, the two standards are supposed to use different way to communicate, so I suppose that you can have a good reception for HSPA+ where you have a bad one with HSPA, and the contrary.

Orange tells that 50% of our country is covered, in an interview of Alice Holzman (can be found on silicon.fr, can't post link for the moment, as I'm a new member) in April :

For the third question, I really don't know the impact on your battery life.
[Networking] ktetreault14:
For your third question.. it does not impact battery life any more.than 3G+
[Networking] BlueScreenJunky:
OK, thanks for your answers.

Apple has an advantage that android will never have:

- There's no so many HW configs to program for. As a programmer imagine my headache when thinking to program for android, so many HW configs, diferent performances, diferent screen resolutions, etc. (I never did anything in android I'm just philosophizing)

And so, that's a disadvantage too:

- There's no choises for the costumer, which is bad, because it's a monopoly of prices (we clearly see that). Their secrecy and info manipulation is epic. To keep the sheeps hungry and feeding.

In the end, their performances will be higher, apps more optimized, etc. all with less efford and all with more profits because of their monopolys

. Now tell me, who gives a damn? Do you like your nexus 7 (or future nexus 10)? isn't that lovely sexy thing a relief to have spent your hard earned money in a very very very fair price?

HELL YEAH. No benchmark can match that, paying what is fair to a company that we all adore.

Hi evereybody,

I'm trying to install this rom

In fact I've done a full wipe (Data/Factory Reset+Cache+Dalvik Cache+Battery Stats+Wipe All except SD card). Then I flash the ROM (successfuly) and the GoogleApps (if I don't flash the GApps it does exactly the same) and when I reboot this freez on the green htc logo.. I tried to manually flash the boot.img file after flashing but it does nothing.. I'm on the 2.02.0002 HBOOT, for any other precisions I'm here.
