[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] AirBruce:
I have also noticed scratches. I didn't use a screen protector when I first got my phone, because I wanted to order a full clear protective film (from bodyguardz.com for $25) that covers the whole phone so I can show off its beauty, so I treated my phone like it was my first born. And still, very tiny scratches developed on the glass. While this was happening, I was waiting for my screen protector to get here, and it took forever! Guess the end results scratches waiting for the delivery.

Not the end of the world, and no one else can see them, but I see it, and that's enough.

As for the back, the plastic also has small scuffs. But that's expected. The sad part is the screen protector I got also covers the back. So scratches everywhere. Meh, what can you do?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jdizzle316:
Yellowman82, yes it is. They do have different ones such as Zagg kiosks in the mall but I cant speak of the quality of Zagg cuz I've never tried them. Ghost Armour is pretty good tho, normally put it on all the phones I get. Id install the screen protectors myself but I always either get lint or fingerprints underneath it. They usually do a good job at the install.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goodtimes50:
So I installed a custom boot animation using ROM Toolbox Lite and everything works great. The problem is that if I switch back to TouchWiz from a CWM backup the custom animation hoses everything up and I have to do a factory wipe/restore. So how do I revert back to the stock CM10 boot animation prior to restoring TW from backup?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thacounty:
Dirty flash the rom.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goodtimes50:
Sorry, I'm still a bit of a noob. Does that mean just flash the existing ROM over the top of the current installation? Do I still need to wipe the cache/Dalvik?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thacounty:
Yes it does. I would wipe cache/dalvik, but it isn't necessary if you haven't flashed a rom. No it will not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] IceCreamTaco:
Hello All,

Im not sure if im in the right section here.

Ill just jump right in , in the hopes that someone can shed some light on radio's and what they do exactly.

I just updated my rom from GB to Jelly Bean (SlimBean) and i am just loving it , its a fantastic rom.

However , even after turning on enable noise suppression in the options , my gf is telling me it doesnt sound as good as it used to.

Would this be something that flashing a new radio would fix?

Should i be flashing a new radio either way since ive updated to a new OS ?

My baseband shows UNKNOWN , its showing a 3g icon when i have 4g, altho its faster than 3g i find it a tad slower in downloading than it was before in GB.

Any help appreciated.

Thank you!

Edit : I should mention i have : Telus_SGH-T989D_TLLE4_radio downloaded , im just unsure whether flashing this will help or not , and ive read that flashing the wrong radio can really screw your phone up.

Is there a way to backup my current radio just in case ?? I have TWRP installed...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] arcsine:
Flashing the wrong radio can't 'really screw up' the phone, relatively speaking. Flash some of the radios found here http://www.4shared.com/folder/0773wt7U/SGH-T989_Radios.html and try calling. You can make a NAND backup of your phone if you're especially paranoid but if your radio does screw up by flashing, just download and flash the TELUS radio again (it's in the link). If you find one that works, stick with it. If not, flash back to your default Telus radio and try other ROMS.

OK I"m pushing a build

it may wipe out all your data

it may nuke your device

it boots

in short some adjustments required

if this breaks your tablet or you lose precious family photos don't blame me it's broken just for fun http://code.google.com/p/jellytime-iconia/downloads/detail?name=theanswer.zip&can=2&q=

Remeber kids, in the event this ROM causes nuclear fallout, back up your data so future generations may carry on with the information stored on your tablet.

[Acer Iconia A500] macia10:
And why it does not have tablet look but phone one?
[Acer Iconia A500] armada786:
This is the way it is in 4.2 onward. Google is unifying the look so it functions the same no matter what screen size (like everyone's favorite fruity rounded rectangles). It's Matias Duarte's vision for the UI. Personally, I have no real issues with it, and I'm sure CM or AOKP will bring back the old functionality.
[Acer Iconia A500] Pazzu510:
I read somewhere that android 4.2 changes something in the render script. I know that this changes somehow the performance of 3d, does someone knows if this can relate to our egl leak? If yes, how does it affect performance and the random reboots we have been having?

Thank you for the efford random blame, as always I love your work, and I would donate if my stupid wall art debit card would play well with PayPal. As soon as I get another debit card you and the amazing quarx are going to have a beer from me.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iviyth0s:
Hey everyone, I just had to revive my Hero for my girlfriend whose Evo Shift just lost its touchscreen input.

It's running LiquidSense 2.1 and has android market right now, but doesn't let her download anything from market. I'm assuming she needs Google Play to be able to download apps (other than directly installing .apks)

Does anyone know where to get it or could provide its Hero compatible .apk??

Thanks all!!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iviyth0s:
Nevermind, I found that 2.1 does not support Google Play and just put a Gingerbread rom on it and it ran Google Play no problem!

Cyanogen Mod is pretty cool actually, still have an image of a Sense Rom just for safety though.

Off to fix the Shift!!

[Nexus 4 General] josuetenista:
I was able to buy a 16gb Nexus 4 and a 32gb Nexus 10 a couple of minutes ago. It could be that sometimes google releases more units in stock or it could be that other orders are cancelled. I used the following method:

Select your default payment and shipping address under wallet.google.com to make thing faster when you checkout

Use chrome browser and download Auto Refresh Plus: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/...pfekkmncanaajkapbpancpelijih?utm_source=gmail

I ussually set up the update interval to 5 seconds and configure the Page monitor to sound when this plugin finds the word "Add to cart" on the page (that means it's in stock)

When the plugin sound it means you have hurry up, add the nexus to your cart and checkout as soon as possible.

I tried at least 5 times and it worked.

I hope it works for you
[Nexus 4 General] scorpion667:
I had mine running for 2 hours and 30 minutes at work and nothing. I am in Canada however
[Nexus 4 General] wetwillycf:
clean licit

Worked for me. Over 20 minutes, I got 3 pings on the 16GB and 5 on the 8GB one. No luck adding any 16GB to cart, but got my 8GB ordered and everything via this method. My guess is that as people who (perhaps) accidentally ordered >1 cancel the extras they go back into being available.
[Nexus 4 General] Dandude159:
I talked to a rep, this is exactly what happened.
[Nexus 4 General] josuetenista:

[Nexus 4 General] Blazing angel:

In the plugin settings. Next to your url address bar in chrome

Will it stop auto-refreshing once it finds the target?
[Nexus 4 General] josuetenista:
Yes it will stop refreshing the page, you could also set a 2 seconds refreshing interval. But I found 5 seconds enough
[Nexus 4 General] James.UBC:
I've got it running on 4 computers now
[Nexus 4 General] BravoMotorola:
Same with me. I was dead on with the 16gb one, but eventually I got tired refreshing the page over 100 times with nothing. With the 8gb one, I refreshed it several times too, and several time the buy now button was there, but only once of the 20 times I clicked the by now button did it actually go through. Oh well, guess I'll have to make use of 8gb:D
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flynlyon3:
I've noticed someone selling their kindle fire HD with the following description:

I am selling a specific version of Kindle Fire 2 that is running the latest OS Jelly Bean Android 4.1.1. Just connect it to WiFi and this tablet works like an Apple TV 2. JUST CONNECT IT TO THE WIFI AND YOU CAN WATCH FREELY:

XBMC, IceFilms, Chinese & Korean movies with English subtitle, VN TV channels, Mexican movie channels, adult channels, sport channels, 1Channel (Movies and TV Shows), Pandora Radio, TubePlus, TVLinks, ProjectFreeTV

Free Cable - watch CBS, NBC, ABC, FX, Hulu, TMZ, Yahoo Music Videos, Navi-X - ESPN, tons of LiveTV, HBO 1&2, CineMax, Crackle movies

and lots of more ... No hidden cost and it is 100% FREE! FREE!

I have been looking everywhere for which app to download or how to install these channels onto a kindle fire. I am hoping that someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shravbits:
The description has fraud written all over it. First off, the Kindle Fire HD runs 4.0 not 4.1 and there are no custom ROMs currently available. Second off, I highly doubt there is a app that can access that much TV media. Maybe there is BUT, its probably not legal, at least within the United States.

Any other stuff i need to know coming from a pretty bad ass unlocked sensation rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ssCISengineer:
Good choice...and listen to what he said...you need a hard screen protector...thats the best I can describe it...like plastic not rubbery
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PsychoSane:
I hate screen protectors, imo you don't need them since this phone has Guerrilla Glass 2. :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdt73:
Oh stop. So tired of this silly "it has gorilla glass and doesn't need a screen protector". Tell that to every person who took your advice and then scratches their screen. Did you know that the 2 in gorilla glass 2 means it's thinner, and not more scratch resistant? RESISTANT... not proof.

Back on topic, use ebay for case shopping. I have a bunch of cases I bought from there to try out, as many of them are 4-15 bucks and there's over 2000 listings for different ones.

Regarding apps, I would follow the directions here to root your phone. Only root it, don't go any further. Then buy a copy of titanium backup, back your phone up to your microsd card, and then freeze the bloat on your phone (all the fancy pink t-mobile apps, for example). You will need to root your phone to do this, as well as other neat tricks like using NFC tags to turn on and off your GPS (not needed for bluetooth or wifi automation tho, *shrug*).

Foxfi works for me, post root, but doesn't for others. I wield no extraordinary magical powers... so I can't explain why it's working, but it is. (for tethering your data connection)

I agree, coldfustion's review of the Note 2 gave me a ton of ideas on how to setup the phone to really be customized. I stole a lot of his ideas and, to be honest, I don't even notice any touchwize anymore. Well worth sitting thru his 18 min video, and the follow-on how-to.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] teshxx:
If you plan to root it then make sure the first thing you do is to back up your EFS partition. It carries your imei info. If you corrupt or delete that by mistake without having a backup, it will be nothing more than a paper weight.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] boodies:
Is it too late to back it up if I didn't do that before rooting? I am currently stock tmo rooted. Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdt73:
I backed up the entire phone beforehand (to my microsd... dont' make the same mistake I made the first time!). You should be able to back it up now if everything is in order. It's when the IMEI is set to zero and your phone doesn't connect to your provider that you need to worry.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dylanjones42:
Power button shot craps for no apparent reason so I called up good old AT&T as the device was still under warranty and they sent me a new one. I was rooted so naturally since I had to send it back I figured I would need to unroot. Did just that using ODIN and the ICS 4.0.3 firmware released via Samsung Kies over the summer. However I am now stuck in a boot loop. And I have read that the solution to this problem is to enter System Recovery 3e and wipe data/factory reset. However without the power button functioning how can I select wipe data/factory reset? Will it even be an issue if I send the phone back and it's unrooted but stuck in a boot loop?

Pressing the home key does nothing. However pressing the menu key shows an oblique view of an android with that blue not-quite-spherical shape spinning around in it's abdomen. I'm not sure if that accomplishes anything at all as I've had it sitting here like this for about a minute or two and nothing else has happened. I feel it's probably just a useless little animation.
