Hello!

I'v already searched for that kind of apps, but didnt find any of that type.

Application that will transmit my location to a webpage, with my current location, speed (Instamapper), and with camera feature?

So I'm asking for an application that would also transmit camera so website visitors can see driving?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] dragontology:
I think Glympse has all that, except the camera thing. However, Ustream has the video streaming. So I guess you would open Glympse first, share to... I don't know. You might have to set this up before you drive, or have a partner set up the web page, share to email and email them. Then have Glympse track you for however long... then open Ustream, start streaming, email the link, set the phone up as a dash camera with whatever hardware mount you have... and go.

Your advice is WRONG and dangerous, check the 100's of videos on youtube of i-diots who ruined their i-phones for youtube views.

From their website

My device has been treated with Liquipel; can I take it swimming or surfing?

No, the Liquipel treatment is a preventative coating and is meant to protect the internal, vital components of electronics from liquid corrosion in the event of accidental liquid exposure. Just as you would not intentionally throw your device on the ground after purchasing a case, you would not want to intentionally submerge your device in liquid after having Liquipel applied.

OP's link to waterproof skins look like a much better product, but its also not true WATERPROOF, more like Spashproof.

A cheap ZIP plastic bag will work best (the thicker the better)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] RellikZephyr:
That is true. I am getting my device liquipel'd, but you're right I'm not going to take it swimming with me. Totally different purpose

Do not DELIBERATELY wet your phone if using products like liquipel

Rellikzephyr
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Makaijin:
There's no way we'll ever see a truly waterproof case that will let you use the phone while swimming. The phone itself would have to be designed to be waterproof from ground up.

The 2 main issues the case needs to overcome is the capacitive screen and the speaker/mic. A layer of water tends to block the touchscreen. This can be seen with wet applied screen protectors. The screen doesn't work properly until the water has been completely tried.

The more important issue is with the speaker/mic combo. In most cases watertight means air tight too. We all know what an airtight enclosure does for sound. How do you plan to make a phone call with decent volume through an airtight enclosure? Although it's possible to transmit sound through objects like with the cup/string method but like I said the phone would have to designed for use in water from the ground up.

We won't be seeing truly waterproof Nexus 4's anytime soon if at all.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] elliot.newnham:
what?

If your talking about airtight doesn't mean vacuumed environment... Air still exists inside the phone, waves can easily transfer from air -> plastic -> air...
[Nexus 4 Accessories] richteralan:
um...I bought a waterproof case for my Xperia S. The touch screen works perfectly without the need to be dried.

About sound waves, it travels in water and air. Air tight doesn't mean soundless. A vacuum means soundless. Two completely different concept.

And why you want phone call under the water? Most of us who wants water proof case is to take to water sports and maybe take a few videos without damaging the device.

[YOUTUBE]or5WFqiPchQ[/YOUTUBE]

So yes, those cases exist, in the past, now, and in the future.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] tech.central:
be careful when you say "never", because there is a possibility

umm, ya ..no I guess you don't get out a lot but I work at Best Buy and there is a case for the iphone 4, 4S, and 5 called lifeproof and it is waterproof up to 6 Ft my friend has it and he takes pictures underwater in my pool and they look awesome. Also about sound quality, sound quality is actually improved, I didn't believe it at first but the lifeproof case redirects sound from the bottom of the iphone and turns the whole back of the case into an amplifier, it's rather impressive technology. For plugging up the charger its no problem you just open the port, it says it keeps it's waterproof seal for thousands of open/shuts, and advises that you should open/shut it around 2 times a day and the seal should be fine. Mic works fine. The only downside to this case is the 80$ price and that you can't dock it without an extension everything else works great. And yes he does go swimming with it just not over 6ft deep.

The technology being completely possible, the nexus 4 is going to be one of the most popular phones because of its cheep price, amazing specs, being part of the pure android experience nexus line, which means tons of support from developers. It's going to be one of the most popular devices ever built and so i wouldn't doubt that they make a waterproof case for it.

Not meaning to bash you, next time just make sure to do a 10sec google search of "waterproof phone case" and see how hard they are to make before you rule out the chance of nexus 4 ever getting one/ getting one soon
[Nexus 4 Accessories] nba1341:
So you pay money for something that may or may not work? :confused:
[Nexus 4 Accessories] neotekz:
That iottie case is only a temporary case and is not meant to stay on the phone for long. I've seen it at the store and it's not very durable and wont hold up for long. Why would you want a waterproof case on your phone all the time? Even the waterproof case for the iPhone is very bulky and you wouldnt want to keep that on the phone 24/7. There is no waterproof case like that for the nexus 4 and most likely never will.

Most of the time you can salvage a phone if it just took a quick dip, the phone will power down automatically so just let it sit for a few days to dry. I've heard that dunking the wet phone in 99% iso alcohol to displace the water since the alcohol will dry much faster also works well but never tried it.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] marcomanni:
I bought today sealabox 3xl for my nexus 4. Somebody have just try it?

For me the best waterproof cover is ipega. I writed to the manufacture some months ago to ask for an nexus 4 version. Plese do the same. Sorry for my English.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] cmanciecko:
The Galaxy Active and the Xperia Z are both going to be waterproof, so I think that I will take my chances with those rather than paying 50 bucks for someone to spray paint my phone.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] R3druMz:
the problem with this waterproof case will be condensation when the cpu heats up after using the phone with gps for example! and if condensation is created in an air tight environment, the electronics of the phone will eventually see water!

That case is probably only good for just a few hours of stand by at a time and if you start recording underwater videos and your cpu starts heating up your gonna get some condensation in the phone!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] randomnoob83:
Jesus dude not everyone is going to go swim in the water with it. More like for protection phrase you drop it in water
[Nexus 4 Accessories] drawkcaB:
Unless you phone is exuding water vapor it wont condense on to the inside of the case. Conversely your phone exuding heat would warm up the case driving away condensation.

Putting your phone into a case while in a humid environment then moving to a cold one would fog up the inside. Nothing else can really.

R3dRumz i dont mean to be dismissive but so long as your sealing the case in a humid environment the case will have the moisture within. If the phone is closed up in a dry environment its pretty much okay.

Can get past Tmobiles tethering block? Also one that has gotten rid of the most bloatware that Tmobile puts on these phone? Looking for the basic apps that come with the phone and less crap that they put on these phones
[HTC One S] nguyenkendy:
All the custom roms on this forum will not have any of the bloatware that comes with the stock device.

And to fix the tethering issue, just create a new APN and set it to epc.tmobile.com, that should bypass the tethering/hotspot issue on T-Mobile.
[HTC One S] FenderGuy:
Thanks for that info
[HTC One S] FenderGuy:
Wow I thought there was a 1 step root process? Damn I feel like i am downloading so many things just to root my phone. Ive settled on the trickdriod version (NON Tmobile version) I cant seem to get the rom?
[HTC One S] invasion2:
It takes like 10 minutes..and then download the ROM and flash it. Voila.
[HTC One S] FenderGuy:
Ok finally unlocked my phone using the HTC method. Downloaded the Trickdriod Rom and tried to go into Recovery mode, but all I get is a screen with a red triangle and exclamation? Rebooted the phone, bootloader, same thing? What is going on? I know the phone is unlocked, because it says it, it just gets stuck in recovery mode...Any advice?
[HTC One S] Spastic909:
Did you flash a recovery? Doesn't look like it if you are getting android recovery.
[HTC One S] FenderGuy:
I followed instructions to unlock the phone....download ROM and Tweak package...but no mention of flash recovery? Do you have a link?
[HTC One S] FenderGuy:
Ok downloaded a img, flash recovery thru cmd , worked than it wont go into recovery to flash root access...no it says tampered above unlocked
[HTC One S] mikeinaus:
I'd just start over fresh.

Relock the bootloader

Go back to stock with a ruu install

Unlock bootloader

Flash custom recovery

Flash rom

Flash boot.img

I think that's the order you want to do things in but couldn't hurt to double check on a different guide.
[HTC One S] sperad:
Tampered means non-official software such as root, it is OK and you will always see it when using custom ROMs.

Might want to check the FAQs, have some basic useful info which will help understand some things too :)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24884624&postcount=3

After unlocking bootloader on the steps on previous post, I would root the phone. Then flash the custom recovery.

Did you flash the boot.img with fastboot from the ROM you choose? You have to:

1- extract it from the rom you downloaded,

2- place it on your computer on the same folder than fastboot

3- boot into bootloader

4- select fastboot

5- on your PC on a command line run: fastboot flash boot boot.img

Let me know how it goes,

Diego
[HTC One S] FenderGuy:
Ok I tried to redo it again and maybe I know what the issue is ...when I try to go into recovery mode ...It says Andriod development (S3) Do I have the issue phone? If so where is the download items for my phone?
[HTC One S] FenderGuy:
Does anyone know if I have the 3s phone?
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
I believe so, check your processor speed. S3 I believe is 1.7 not 1.5 as S4 is

If that is the case you are limited to S3 roms. There are a couple. I didn't think S3's are in US--maybe wrong--

Not sure on all this except processor speeds

Good to see you here FenderGuy--think we crossed paths on the Nexus Forums--:)
[HTC One S] FenderGuy:
Yeah I think we did...No wonder the phone doesnt want to go into another ROM mode...

[Nokia Lumia 920] emckai:
I'm 99.999999999999% sure Nokia fused the two together. If the 800 and 900 have fused digitizer and LCD, why wouldn't the 920.

Most of the new phones coming out will have the two fused together to bring out 'better' picture quality.

Ok so Christmas is sneaking up on me and I'm thinking of getting my son (almost 3) one of these cheap android tabs. I was thinking of the innotab or leap pad but for its price i feel an android tab would do so much more and would be something he wouldn't grow out of in 6 months time.

So does any one on here know any good child mode apps i could use if i get him one? I wouldn't want him destroying the tab by changing all the settings and buying apps and sending emails to people etc.

I'd like an app that would boot into kids mode upon start up and that would be easy for him to access basic things like games and camera and coloring apps etc etc..and ideally a function where i could monitor his usage and see his progress in games and drawing...

Please help :)

Ps: for the people that think I'm mad, i am. Don't judge me for giving him a tab. I won't get an expensive one and even if i did, it's my money so no criticism please!

Yeah ive seen one i like the look of called kytephone. I found that one here on xda.

I was mainly after opinions on what people use for their child. And what they liked about it.

And although he's only 3 he's very clever like his daddy lol and it will hopefully stop him using my note.

Edit: this thread isn't going as i hoped. I will not stick him in front of the tv all day nor will he have access to this tab 24/7.

We do play outside, we do have fun that don't involve technology so what's the harm in him earning an hour or two tab time?

I'm after advice not criticism so can we get back on topic or shall i close the thread?
