So I was wondering if Amy of you use this phone with no screen protector and how the screen looks after x amount of time with normal use?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rymanh:
I have had my phone for about 8 months and never had a screen protector on it.. I can't detect one single scratch..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
Same here. I don't like screen protectors. I've had this phone 7-12 months now and while my silver rim has scuffs on it, my screen is immaculate. No hairline scratches. It's absolutely mint. I have an OCD with my device screens though. There's always an LCD screen cleaner and microfiber cloth within arms reach of me. I really, really hate dirty mucked up screens lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ITALIANNYC:
Everyone enjoys not having a screen protector..

Until they drop their phone and it gets scratched

I always use one. They cost 3 dollars on ebay for 6 with free shipping. Its worthed
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bzlik88:
I dropped my phone plenty...

No screen scratches, bezel is all torn up though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] madmaze:
same here, ive had mine just about a year now. the bezel has some nicks in it.. but even a screen protector wont prevent that. I even ditched my case after about a week or so.. its much less bulky then
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skaroger867:
Yea my silver part is wearing down a little from the case I'm using. I've been debating not using a screen protector. I have one left, i just get tired of them scratching up and dulling the screen. Then on look at my kindle (I know it has gorrila glass) with no case or screen protection and its amazingly clean. And clear. I'm always on the fence about it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gypsy214:
I have used screen protectors before for this phone and been without for a while too. And to tell you the truth only when I have a screen protector you can see scratches from everyday use and from my jeans pockets. And when its without I dont see one single scratch
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] realtalker:
Not bad

I used mine for about a month without a screen protector. I just got Zagg, and I like the feel a lot better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skaroger867:
I had a zagg on my inspire 4g and I didn't really care for it. It came pre installed
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] balla786:
I've had my Hercules without a protector for near a year. The screen is pristine, no scratches! I love the glass used on this phone. It can get oily but nothing a microfiber cloth can't wipe clean.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thermanlee:
I've had the phone since February with no screen protector. Finally dropped it 2 weeks ago, went skidding face down about 3 feet across an asphalt lot. The bezel is scratched up pretty good, but the glass has no scratches at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] VoiD_Dweller:
I generally don't use a screen protector but with this phone I decided to. My HTC Glacier I didn't use one and after a year it had no scratches. The reason I did use one with this phone is to retain its value so I can resell and get a better phone when I get sick of it.

Sand scratches the glass so don't think its 100% safe to go without one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skaroger867:
I just put my last screen protector on here. I got a hair scratch down where the hardware keys are. I used to use those cut to fit ones and they would never cover those buttons. Now the one I have is fitted. I probably won't buy any more
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Solissfiend:
I have had mine for 9 or 10 months and the screen looks great, my bezel was dented and such so I tapped of my screen, took a dremel to it and took off the outer coating, now I have an all white s2 with a matte black bezel, with an awesome screen... Pretty bad ass
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Laazyboy:
No screen protector since February. I take excellent care of my phones but just discovered a few horizontal scratches on it that's barely noticeable but still surprised me. Kept in a tpu case

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skaroger867:
I don't think this flavor of the s2 his the gorilla glass. I believe I read it was some kind of fortifies glass. Could be wrong
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nikufellow:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Alarmmy:
Our phone doesnt have gorilla glass. It is just an enhanced glass. Fortified or s.thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nikufellow:
Okay yeah at least its something enhanced so no worries
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skaroger867:
I know, the guy told me at the store that it did have gorrila glass when I got it. I was upset when I found out he wasn't correct.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Alarmmy:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skaroger867:
There are different flavors of the s2. They are not all the same. Different screen sizes as well as other things
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sparkie6point0:
I've had my S2 for about four months now and for the most part it's hard to keep clean, but viewable. The reason I don't use a screen protector is because I use a case with a kickstand for when I want to watch TV and/or movies. The edges of the screen protector, for some reason, always somehow get in the way.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Alarmmy:
It is international S2, not North America S2. They are completely different phones.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skaroger867:
Hey I got one of those kick stand cases too
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
I'm in construction.... between scratches and stuff on my fingers....I use a screen protector and always will. Also a seidio hard case and holster for convenience and protection.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wiiareonfire:
Hey, I've done some reading up around here, and I'm looking to change my boot logo (Boot logo. Not the animation). So far, it doesn't look like anyone other than the developer of Logo Me has any method to do so.

From what I understand, "fastboot flash logo.bin logo.bin" doesn't work as it does on most other devices.

Now, I'm no professional, but I've got some of what many don't have: time and dedication.

It boils down to this: To change the boot logo, I'd need (1) a way to get the boot.img off of the phone, (2) a way to reliably edit the boot.img without corrupting it or messing with the format, (3) a way to figure out which file is the boot logo, and (4) a way to get the modified boot.img back onto the phone (again without messing it up in the process).

I'm fairly sure (4) is solved with "fastboot flash boot.img boot.img", but the others, not so easily dismissed.

When I make a nandroid backup in TWRP, the boot backup is an 8MB "boot.emmc.win". I'm fairly sure that this might be of some use, even if it's only for opening and exploring the contents of the partition.

I'm not sure if anybody has any remarkable leads that they've kept to themselves, but I'd figure this would be a good place to start.

Boot.img = ramdisk+kernel

Nothing to do with boot splash

sent from my i9250
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
the image that youre looking for is somehow connected to the bootloader. so far only ezekeel has figured out a way to do it safely. key word is safely. it appears as its very easy to brick the device if a mistake is made. now, that said, ezekeel isnt your ordinary app developer. hes also one of the smartest, most creative kernel developers that the android has(that doesnt work for google). youve probably even used one of his many kernel mods in one or more custom roms/kernels that youve tried, across varying devices.

[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
Is it impossible to change the boot animation on my phone if I just have stock rooted?
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
When your device is rooted, it is always possible to do it.

Just get the new bootanimation.zip, rename it to the same as what you have in system/customize/resource, usually hTC_bootup_one.zip.

Then you use a root explorer to replace that with the new one, put the right permission to it, reboot... you will have a new one.
[HTC One V] sohamssd:
Just a question ck, how to know which app requires which permissions?
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
All apps and files require a right permission to be functional.

A regular file, the permission is ---rwxr-x

But the system files mostly are rw-r--r--

and most files in bin/xbin are rwxr-xr-x

and some are totally different. This usually is set in the updater-script when we first install a ROM.
[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
I replaced the boot animation with a custom one. I even changed the ownership and permissions to match the original boot animation but still shows the original. Is this original boot animation cached somewhere?
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
The original boot animation is hTC_bootup_one.zip, so the custom one must be renamed the same.
[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
Yes. I renamed it the same and even moved the original out of that directory. Still boots with original.
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
Go to system/customize/CID then open the default.xml with a text editor.

Does it say something like this ?

<BootConfiguration>
<BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/hTC_bootup_one.zip" audio="/system/customize/resource/htc_boot.mp3" />
</BootConfiguration>
[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
Wow. Thanks so much. That helped. Oddly it was SPCVM_bootanimation.zip

Works now. Thank you.
[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
I'm still curious to why there was also a file called hTC_bootup_one.zip
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
I guess the hTC_bootup_one.zip is the original HTC bootanimation and

SPCVM_bootanimation.zip is the customized bootanimation for VM.

Which service is best...

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[Networking] MrObvious:
It probably depends on the area. DC-HSPA on T-Mobile actually runs faster than Verizon LTE in some areas just because Verizon doesn't open it up enough or have enough capacity or something. The nice part is that DC-HSPA is really just a fast 3G, so even if your phone only hits 14.4 HSPA, it still goes pretty fast. T-Mobile will deploy LTE next year and if that has problems it will have DC-HSPA as a fallback.
[Networking] Babydollll:
I have T-mobile and I easily get 22mbps down, 2mbps up. My husband has Verizon and he gets 23mbps down, 7mbps up. The downlink speeds are comparable. The only difference is in the uplink speeds. Verizon has the edge here. However, I have used both phones side by side and for most tasks, there isn't a huge difference.

4G Late?

4G LTE

-Destroys Battery life

-Sales Gimmick

4G HSPA+

-Fast enough

-Better battery life
[Networking] Looneytoon98:
Can anybody really distinguish, with the naked eye, which is faster? Whose testing website is really accurate? Besides bragging rights and marketing fanfare, does it make any difference?
[Networking] theguardian99:
Hi guys,

I do not need LTE due to those facts:

1) HSDPA is fast enough.

2) in common cell phone contracts over here in Germany your speed is reduced to 64kbit after you used up 300mb per month. If I had more than that we could talk about LTE.
[Networking] Babydollll:
Nope.

[Networking] MrObvious:
LTE plans here are more expensive. That's a good reason.
[Networking] PetrichorXFi:
LTE not Late

FYI there is no "Late 4G", it is called "LTE". Actually there are two types of 4G; LTE and WiMax.

LTE was first used by Verizon, but is now also used by ATT. Due to marketing "schemes" some believe the Apple iPhone 5 has 4g. False! it has HSPA+, not 4G/ Sure, HSPA+ is a ton faster than 3g, but it is still not 4G.

Sprint, and T-Mobile are now also starting to use LTE. Unfortunately I don't believe LTE is standard worldwide, meaning they use different frequency bands. Similar to how a GSM american phone, may or may not work in Europe

Either way, we won't be hitting 4G for another 5/10 years. Although, I can't imagine why the hell a phone needs 1Gbps down and 100Mbps up. Maybe 30 years from now those speeds will be standard.
[Networking] times_infinity:
LTE and WiMax are still 3G. They're marketed as 4G (read: FauxG). They're really 3.9G.

Only LTE-Advanced is a certified 4G tech. All the others are still 3G
[Networking] geoff5093:
I know that was the case originally, but it's my understanding that the group behind the 4G standards was pushed enough to bend what it qualifies as 4G. Originally 4G was when you had a minimum of 100Mbps download, but now HSPA+, WiMax, and LTE are all considered 4G technologies.
[Networking] Babydollll:
By name only. The carriers cried and whined for it, so the ITU caved. It's STILL "faux G" as far as many people are concerned. :rolleyes:

Call it whatever you want. It doesn't change the fact that it's still technically based on an older technology.

Snowflake approved this message....
[Networking] Clubbysupercharged:
Would prefer HSPA than 4G. On 4G, it's really a battery eater. However, the highest HSPA speed I've gotten was around 3mbps and around 1-2mbps upload compared to 30-45mbps download and ~20-30mbps upload.

Normally the HSPA speeds is almost the same as running on GPRS during peak hours until the three local telco was fined for providing below standard data speeds/coverage then it managed to peak around 4-5.
[Networking] MrObvious:
That's your carrier. I've seen HSPA speeds hit 20Mb down and LTE speeds hit 60Mb down almost from seeing other speedtests.
[Networking] Babydollll:
Or his location (or the hardware limitation of the handset) ;)

LTE>HSPA+

My best friend bought the black Iphone five (64 gig) when he came down to Jax, and in town, we compared our speed test results.

Iphone five (lte on at&t) first test- 68 mbps down/16 mbps up

Htc Amaze (faux g) best result that day-23mbps down/3 mbps up

So, strictly speed wise, he consistently was able to pull high 60's down, while my phone that theoretically can hit 42 mbps, never reached 30's. So it seems that location is an important factor, but none the less, I cant kid myself, I rooted my phone and changed the values in the build.prop file to command the phone to max out the radio, while his was straight out of the box. Imagine if he were to jailbreak that monster, its capable of 80 mbps down. The only problem is that his screen is smaller than mine, and he has some crappy plan that wont let him tether, as oposed to us, we can hack out phones to utilize our signal on something easier on the eyes.

Now bear in mind, I am just commenting on data speed, and he is back in Greensboro, North Carolina, and he only gets 20mbps down at best. Then again, 20 mbps down would be my phone on a good day in the middle of the night.

Only 16GB and 32GB models will be available on the 19th; I guess due to the price Meizu figures the 64GB will be less in demand so they are pushing that one down the road a little.
