Is it possible to take some pictures of the ghostarmor on the phone? Thanks. Do any of you also have some sort of TPU case as well? Was wondering if that fit over the Ghost Armor.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] aSquard:
I swear by Ghost Armour... the best, in my opinion

Nexus 4 (temporary one since I haven't been to the mall to get the actual one installed)

Defeats the purpose a bit, I know but it's got the TPU case on it and the edges (volume and power button side) cannot be felt, nor is the screen protector affected by the case (unlike my GNex - the POP! case is really tight)

i also have a tpu case on top of my full body ghost armor, but one side is a bit stretched out and wont fit 100%... nothing really noticeable !!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] SN4K3B1T3:
I put ghost armor full coverage on me and my girlfriends phones and she would just toss the phone in her purse and there would be no scratches when we went and got FREE replacements at the ga kiosk there was no scratches on the phone. I'm probably going to order one today... Possible two sets of full body protection

[Nexus 4 Accessories] DomOctober:
I can vouch for the quality of Ghost Armor. Used these screen protectors for all of my devices. It adds good protection and just the right amount of "resistance" to touch, all while maintaining excellent clarity considering the durability of the material. Good scratch protection and self-heals most of your typical little scratches. I currently have one on my N4, and I am not disappointed at all. The guys and gals at the booth do an outstanding job applying it, and you have a lifetime warranty on it. Can't beat that.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Mr. Chocolate:
I can also vouch for the quality of ghost armor as well. The camera and proximity sensors are perfectly cut out, and it feels just like glass. It has a wonderful texture and clarity unlike any other screen shield I have used before. I have a tight case on and it doesn't peel at all. Their warranty system is excellent as well, a free replacement if your current one peels/dents (I have yet to experience this). If you do go for the replacement, you may want to bring in your old screen protector if you peeled it off, as the mall stand near me requires that you bring it in order to receive a replacement.

One thing I dislike is that it doesn't cover the curved edges on the right and left sides. I hope they will fix this in an updated version of the skin, but otherwise, to me it is the perfect screen protector.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] PiperBen85:
I also recommend these guys. Outstanding product with a lifetime warranty. I had the screen protector put on my Nexus 7 about a month ago and I am just as happy with it as from day one. Since then I've had my wife take her iPad Mini in for a screen protector as well. Certainly worth the money spent, although I can't vouch for the skins.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] yiweitech:
I'm not sure which location you're at, but the booths in Canada have really poor attitudes and service, but the actual screen protector is pretty awesome.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] BuzzKilla:
I went to the kiosk to have ghost armour applied to my Nexus 4... lets just say i ended up ripping off the front, as i didnt like how the side edges didnt go across the whole screen and i would feel the edges of it, when swiping across the screen.

the side protection, made the plastic look like poop, so that was removed as well....

I only have the back panel covered and that is so my phone doesnt slide off my desk. which was my main reason to get ghost armor.

I hope they fixed the undersized screen protector. which was purchasd shortly after the Nexus4 Launch date...
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Bobsk8:
For feeling like glass, the best one I have found is the Steinheil Ultra crystal Dual, which includes a sheet for the back of the phone. Goes on easy, no bubbles, and looks and feels like glass.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirxdroid:
My plan was to have a small NFC tag that I keep in my car and just touch my phone holster with it to turn on bluetooth, turn off wifi, etc. without taking the phone out and fiddling with it. Same deal when I get home, just wave my phone on an NFC tag on my desk to set the home profile.

This is my first NFC phone and didn't realize that the screen needs to be on and unlocked for NFC to work.

Any apps that can change this behavior or do we need a custom ROM for it? And if possible to do, would having NFC enabled at all times, even with the screen off kill the battery which would kinda defeat the purpose then? Or is the NFC radio less power hungry compared to bluetooth or wifi?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mintvilla:
NFC turns off when the screen is off to save battery, would you like NFC to be on all the time?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawkeye9723:
There was a hack for this over on the Skyrocket board. it requires ROOT and replacing the stock nfc.apk with one that's been modified to allow the NFC to work with the screen off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esteef:
It won't work with google wallet. . .

I believe google wallet requires a pin code to enter before you can use it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirxdroid:
That's fine, I would not want it to work for Google Wallet without me looking at the screen :) If it can work with NFC Task Launcher it is good enough.

How power hungry is NFC if on all the time? I'm trying to find an easy way to turn bluetooth on when in the car without fiddling with the phone. More often than not I don't turn it on and ignore calls while driving (probably safer this way anyway) because it takes too long to take the phone out of the holster, unlock it, turn bt on, etc. rinse and repeat when I get out of the car.

I guess I should try and leave bluetooth on all the time and see how bad it is for the battery.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ralexand:
Seems to me like they were fixing a security hole. Being able to use NFC with the screen off means anyone is able to just tap against your pants pocket in hopes of receiving data from your phone. This is the future, people. **** like that would start happening. It'd be the new pick-pockets. Let's call them: pick-chips.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwd3885:
Yea, you don't want to be able to use NFC with the screen off. Talk about major security issues. Someone could just bump into you and transfer some malware to your phone. You don't want this.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirxdroid:
It could work with a whitelist of apps that are allowed to respond to NFC events with the screen off. I would only set NFC Task Launcher to process such events and only for a set of recognized tags. Any other NFC interaction would be a NOP.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ajfink:
Surely you can see the power management and security advantages to having it this way. I understand not everyone would have chosen it to operate this way for themselves, personally.

Depends what .zip it is. Some are flashable, some are not. Open the zip to find out.

If the first contents of the zip is /part0/ /part1/ it is not flashable.

Otherwise it'd go to /data/ or /system/ -----> flashable.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Jaa-Yoo:
I bought a brand new Blaze a few days ago while vacationing in Florida. I neglected to check it out while i was there and Im home now (in Bermuda) checking it out for the first time and the phone wont boot! I popped the battery in and nothing happens when i try to power it on. So thinking the battery was dead, i plugged it in and now it just vibrates. It vibrates continuously every 2 seconds. buzzz...buzzz...buzzz...buzzz. The screen never powers on at all. Im guessing i have a bricked phone out of the box? Or is there a simple fix for this that i havent been able to find? :)

If i do return this, can it be returned to any authorized T-Mobile dealer? I wont be going back to Florida but i know someone who is visiting Boston next week.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] johnb380:
Try tmobile customer support they have gotten a lot better the last few years

I'm not a Dev, I just flash alot.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Cirkustanz:
I'd return it personally. Same goes for any gadgets that fail before the initial return policy expires. Things happen, but I never liked that feeling of doubt that happens later, when something else goes wrong with the device. You'll be thinking, "I KNEW I should have exchanged this!"
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] mdneilson:
Have you charged it fully? This is the default behavior if there isn't enough power to boot. Let it charge for 24 hours... then try again.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
It vibrates like that when the device is plugged in and there's no battery detected or installed. My guess is the battery is defective or the orientation of the battery in the phone is incorrect (hey, it happens sometimes), or there is an obstruction preventing the pins in the phone from making contact with the battery or the pins don't properly align with the battery (defect with the phone or battery).

But I would agree that you should return it for another - especially if the pins aren't fully aligned with the battery when it's inserted.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Jaa-Yoo:
Thanks guys, you were right, the battery was the culprit, it was dead flat.

I popped it into my universal charger, gave it a full charge and it was good to go, the phone booted and is working normally.

Thanks again. :)

but after a few mins, it works fine again.. does anyone know why this happens?

im on a rooted debloated stock rom.

thanks

What does the error say? Wifi calling needs a strong signal or it will beep (loudly) warning you that you're about to drop.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ediebol:
I don't know that I've ever seen this explicitly stated by anyone, so I thought I'd ask straight out.

What kind of battery life is everyone getting?

On average, say, per hour, with moderate use how much battery do you lose?

Are you stock or rooted? What ROM and kernel if rooted?

And... GO!

Screenshots welcome and encouraged!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] milky1112:
Everyone's is gonna be completely different. Most will post in the roms what they are seeing on avg. There's to many variables that go into that to really narrow things down. Just my opinion on that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ediebol:
I understand that everyone is going to be completely different, that's the point. The idea is that if people were to post a wide variety of conditions, along with their battery-related results, others can try to tweak their settings closest to what fits their needs.

Yes, it is easily found amongst the forums for individuals ROMS/kernels, but why not put together a one-stop-shop for reference?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] milky1112:
IMO better to keep with the Roms/Kernels (Under development) or someone may mistake and try to add something to a rom that doesn't work. Just my thoughts, I understand the goal, and I'm always looking to improve upon my battery life for my use. Haven't had phone a day yet to have any real results yet to mine.. We'll see how the world chimes in on this too tho.. :)

Current: The Peoples Rom, 69% battery remaining, 6 hrs 14 min on bat, 1 hr 20 min screen on. Just to start it off a bit.. Will update this evening.

On wifi, about 4 minutes per percent of battery for screen on time + 2 hours per percent for extra screen off time. This is with the screen brightness very low though.

So, about 400 minutes of continued usage or 200 hours of standby.

So this might not be the forum but hopefully someone will take pity on me and point me in the right direction.

As u can see. This bad boy ain't even sleeping. If not for juice defender i wouldn't make it through the day with moderate use. Now I'm in the islands where there ain't much good service to begin with so this might get a Lil tricky. Also i am unrooted. If that helps. I think it's an app but i guess i need to find another app to find the app that's the culprit. Thx in advance.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricky16:
My problem started when I decided to test out the "backup" and "restore" feature Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit with my unrooted phone (will be rooted soon). It did back up and restore everything I wanted more or less but now it seems that whenever I launch Play Store, sync my Gmail account or even downloading/saving a simple picture to sd card on a browser, that app crashes with the "Unfortunantely <app> has stopped" with "report" and "ok" as the buttons.

I tried clearing cache, clearing data and force closing the app and rerunning it but it will eventually crash again. One thing to note however, is that Play Store only crashes if there there is an app download in progress, which incidentetly does not start, Gmail crashes when it tries syncing and the browser (Chrome included) crashes whenever downloading a file.

I also noticed that when I select "report" when the app crashes and look at the system data that will be included, they all appear to be quite simlar, which means the problems might be related

So how do I fix this problem?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricky16:
*UPDATE*

I finally fixed the problem by force stopping and clear data/cache for any apps that had to do with downloading, Play Store, media storage, Google services or Gmail, followed by a quick restart. I probably overdid it but anyways, it worked for me and I hope that if anyone has a similar problem, here is the solution

Looking to buy a Telus One X+ for shipping to the US so that I can get it unlocked and use on AT&Ts network. It doesn't appear that Telus will let me purchase and ship to the US.

Are there other places that folks can point me to for this?

[HTC One X+] cb474:
I'm wondering the same thing. I think probably we'll have to wait for them to show up on eBay. I'm guessing maybe after Christmas people will have phones that they don't want for some reason. It also looks like in the past Negri Electronics sold the Rogers version of the One X (for a very high price), so perhaps the One X+ will show up there at some point.
[HTC One X+] mickliq:
I'm not sure why you wouldn't just buy the AT&T version?!? They're basically the same device. Unless you don't like the (ugly) globe at the top of the AT&T version ;)
[HTC One X+] cb474:
Yeah, that basically it. I don't like the carrier branding. I guess I'm just particular that way.

And I don't mind waiting a month or two, until they show up on eBay. The price will probably come down some. And hopefully by then there will be a version of Cyanogen available, so I don't have to spend one minute with Sense (yuck). Also in the mean time, I may still decide to get a Nexus 4. I'm still in a wait and see mode, to see how people's experiences with the glass back go.

Although I've checked out both phones in the store and, for me, the One X+ feels much better in the hand as well as seeming more high quality. (There's also the extra storage in the One X+, the capacitive buttons, a better camera, and a little bit better of a screen--all features I like.)

why does my one x plus show up as an evare_ul?

hi i was wondering if you know why my htc one x plus shows as evare_ul on my computer model number and phone name this is a telus phone unlocked and on the bell network.

thanks,
[HTC One X+] cb474:
I think all phones have an internal code name used by the company that designed it. I believe they use this name during the design process, before they've figured out the commercial name they'll use for marketing purposes. I'm guessing EVARE_UL is HTC's code name for the AT&T/Telus version of the One X+. Probably when you plug your phone into your computer at some low (file structure?) level the phone identifies itself to the computer by this name.
[HTC One X+] Dfballa:
