[Nexus 4 Accessories] James BlackHeron:
Just replaced mine with the Spigen oleophobic protector.

I sort of like the shipping film better almost

What I DID NOT like about it.

The annoying -/- and on/off graphics got in the way, especially for text.

Oils did build up pretty darn quickly -definitely NOT oleophobic.

The edges were getting a tiny bit yucky, especially around the tear-off tab, and a line of about 1mm on the right side was starting to peel up the entire side from bottom to top -probably started at the tab.

Strangely tiny pinholes were starting to form in the film. I thought at first maybe I had just missed them from the start but each day there seemed to be a new one or two. It is almost like it was deteriorating right in front of my eyes. Is this some sort of decompostable plastic. Is it made with corn starch?

What I DID like about the shipping film:

It was definitely a LOT slipperyier than the Spigen is. It wasn't quite as slippery as naked, but not that far off if i was clean. As oils and goop built up on it the slipperyness went downhill fast.

It was free, came with the phone, and kept the phone protected until I got a more permanent replacement.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] cramu:
My factory protector on the back started peeling off today, after 2 weeks of usage.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] James BlackHeron:
I am still using my back too. It's protecting the back glass from any rubbing from the Rearth case. I took the case off the other day to install the new front protector and the IMEI sticker was halfway gone already. There is some movement and rubbing between the Rearth case and the phone back. I don't mind the IMEI sticker getting rubbed so it can't be read any longer but I wouldn't want the glass rubbed like that. Get any fine grit in there with dust that is harder than the glass back and it'll get fogged pretty quickly I bet. Best to have something on the back glass IMHO. The factory film does a fine job of this for now until I get a bumper case and then I'll need something a little less likely to catch and peel off.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Emama:
The back one is much thinner than the front one and I wont count the back one as a protector.

I would just call the back one a plastic sheet with imei #
[Nexus 4 Accessories] mayurolla:
I've had my phone since 11/19 and still using factory film as a protector. I really want the Spigen protectors but their CS horrendous, still waiting for them to issue me a refund so I can order a dual set.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
+1 on this
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kazuki1:
I got my device yesterday and have it on still, I dont like peeling off factory screen protectors until I have a good one to use. Though the back protector has gotten a bit of lint underneath from the tab pulling:L
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Smokeey:
Or you can take care of your device and allow the oleophobic coat do its job. Buying a screen protector is useless until the oleophobic wears off.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
lol
[Nexus 4 Accessories] mrhaddan:
Still have mine on after day 3. Works great. I sometimes forget that the volume and power identifiers are even still there. Until I come back from being broke, the front and back protectors will stay on there.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] James BlackHeron:
Mohs scale.

There are things in dust/sand of higher hardness than even that of gorilla glass.

If a spec of something harder than your glass front/back comes in contact with it and rubs in your pocket with any force it WILL scratch the glass unless you have a physical barrier to protect it. This is simple mineralogy -science!

Go naked if you want. But if your screen or back gets scratched, remember this, YOU scratched it.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] versd:
Glad at least some people understand mohs scale. Too bad I'm going somewhere very sandy soon!! And my current eBay screen protector doesn't cover the entire front but at least all the display ..
[Nexus 4 Accessories] juggies:
Literally in the exact same boat, waiting on the spigens. Arguably best factory screen protection I've seen.

Hello,

i've been experiencing troubles making calls since upgraded to 4.2, tried 4.1.2, hangs up immediately call log says 0 seconds.

there is a topic about it at google issues, but i thought if i'll bring it here it will get some more attention. it seems that removing the SIM and re-inserting it, fix it, but after restart, problem restore.

only few service provider seems to suffer from this issue.

here is the topic: code.google .com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39904

I just did this recently myself having gone 4.0.3 to 4.1 to 4.2 via ROM wipes and flashes only. My phone doesn't misbehave anymore since I completely wiped it and flashed Google's official image and then went on about rooting from there and now back to Purity ROM.

Hi ...

I have Xperia arc s (LT18i) I have rooted it and downloaded rom on it (Xperia Ultimate HD™ 2.0)

and every thing worked perfectly ...

then I installed Font Changer to change system font ..

I tried few fonts .. but when I tried one of them (it always ask to reboot) the phone got stuck at xperia logo ...

I tried few solutions (reinstalling the ROM, wipe dalvik cache, wipe battery stats, Wipe data/factory reset)

and every time I reboot nothing change ..

then I tried to do these things (format /system, format/data, format cache) and then reboot ...

the phone got stuck on sony logo and been unable to run CMW ...

so if any one have a solution I will be so thankful ...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SammiSaysHello:

[ARC S][ROM/KERNEL] 4.1.B.0.587 Stock rom and original kernel to use after root

and thanks again for helping me ...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SammiSaysHello:
sorry about the bad link :(

Yes you can use that, but you must flash this kernel after you flash that stock firmware to root.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SammiSaysHello:
The download link is fixed :)

Link to all official firmwares: http://forum.android.com.pl/f308/oprogramowanie-dla-sony-ericsson-xperiaa-arc-s-147007/

By the way, you can not root .587 you have to download .562 or like mentioned before just flash 562 kernel, root and then flash back to 587 kernel. But I think easier should be to download .562 firmware and then just root.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
The easiest method is with an unlocked boot loader, install 587, flash CWM'd Kernel, flash Root.zip, done.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alamgirqazi:
Today i rooted my htc buzz wildfire and installed cyanogenmod 7.2

I wanna know how can i change the rom?

And which is the best rom available? In terms of speed and one last question, does overclocking really boosts up the speed. Should i really do that?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavy_metal_man:
Cyanogenmod Is a rom, and so is htc sense and miui ect. You have already changed rom! And yes, allowing you don't over do it there should be no harm bar the battery will run down faster. :D
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alamgirqazi:
I think with cm7, some apps still lag. For e.g xda app crashes at times and it gives the error "force close" which never really happened before.

2) And can u tell me should i try cm9 with jelly bean / ice cream sandwich.

3) and how can i use rom manager? I rooted yesterday and didn't use it. What's the first option i should use etc ( a forum link would be appreciated) i couldn't find any.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miniAndroidian:
CM 7 is a really smooth ROM no ICS ROM is faster. I think you should stay on CM7.

You can use ROM Manager if u want to flash a new ROM for example CM9 or a new ClockworkMod recovery. You can also Download the newest Version of CM7 (gApps etc.)via ROM Manager.

Maybe you should try to clear the app cache and data to get the app working
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alamgirqazi:
Thank you.

But can you teach me more about Rom Manager? I had it pre-installed in cm7 but don't know how to use it.

I heard that rom manager can get phone's bricked. I haven't even made a backup of cm7
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miniAndroidian:
Here is a complete guide how to use ROM Manager and what exactly it does ;)

I've heard about the 'brick'-issiue too but i think that's a rumor. I flash ROMs with ROM Manager for about 1 year and i hadn't even one issiue with it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aldenucci:
Hello!

My Galaxy Note intl. GT-N7000 is running ParanoidAndroid (Jelly Bean based) and before the flash, my phone was into eMMC brickbug, but with 3 partitions at the same time (FACTORYFS, DATAFS and partition 11). I flashed ParanoidAndroid ROM with its own kernel using CWM, and now I'm seeing that it just loaded with a lot of bugs, like restarting, laging... So... WHAT I CAN DO?

EXPLAINING BETTER:

My phone cannot flash stock ROMs, GB and ICS stops at FACTORYFS, JB leak stops at DATAFS.

My Phone:

SAMSUNG Galaxy Note (GT-N7000)

Was in 4.0.4 Brazilian before the bug;

PA is lagging too much;

ODIN flashes are NOT WORKING;

PS: Even with PITs, it doesn't work. GB and ICS doesn't flash... Any tips?

Thanks!

Getting FCs in your ICS ROM, so you ran Fix Permissions in ROM Manager? Now all your contact pictures in your SMS app have disappeared? Already tried the chmod 666 (whatever directory) fix that used to work in GB ROMs? Well, I am here to help. I looked through my fix_permissions.log file to find out what ROM Manager borked, and I found out the following will fix your problem:

1. Plug your phone into USB.

2. Open up your command prompt/console, and then type the following commands:

adb shell
chmod 700 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/files/photos
chmod 700 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/files/profile

[Motorola Droid 3] dabayer:
is it possible to change the icon or delete some of them?

and a second question: can i remove the google search on my homescreen?
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Yes you can change the status bar icons, easiest way is to use rom toolbox, or you can use so something like ninjamorph, or get down and dirty and use apk tool to decompile and change them manually.

And the Google search is a feature for adw launcher, you can remove it in the settings
[Motorola Droid 3] dabayer:
thanks for the fast response

but i think i made a mistake

i dont mean the statusbar where signal strength and battery is

i mean the bar where i can activate flight modus oder silent oder brightness

for the google bar i tried every point in adw-setup but no one removes it :(
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
you mean the quick toggles. Yes you can, but it has to be done the hard way, by decompiling the apk, i'm not even sure if it's systemUI.apk or framework-res.apk. Ask in the official thread and maybe the OP can tell you
[Motorola Droid 3] dabayer:
hm ok. im not allowed to write in the official Threat. i need more posts ;)
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
well in the meantime i would get the android sdk, and apktool or apk manager and start learning how to decompile and recompile apks. When this rom hits a final version i'll be trying my hand at themeing(i have very little experience at it, mdae a few minor changes in some apks but i know how it should be done)
[Motorola Droid 3] dabayer:
thx

but this ROM is not saving battery live

The phone is next to me. Screen is off nothing special is running and i lost 10% in 2h
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
that's weird. currently i have 49% at 20 hours with 2+ hours of screen on time and wifi on all that time(connected to a network the whole time, no scanning)

While that's really good, i have been at home most of that time and not using it too much. But i normally use about 2 hours screen, 2-6 hours of music and it is just about dying at bedtime, so i get 12 hours normally. What's top of your battery stats? did you wipe data and cache when installing and have you done a full drain and recharge since flashing
[Motorola Droid 3] dabayer:
i made a new slot in safetrap. i think there isn't necessary to whipe something?

is have 89% of android OS
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
can't hurt
[Motorola Droid 3] dabayer:
if i whipe in a slot i delete the date of the other slots too?
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
No, it wipes data only in that slot.
[Motorola Droid 3] dabayer:
thx

i try it tomorrow :)
[Motorola Droid 3] xavierxavierxavier:
Firstly I would thanks you for your great job. Anyway i have two issues regarding your ROM :

- Could you please indicate how I can disable the backgound data? It seems that they are still to run (in bleu), and then, use some battery ?

- It could possible to let the old task manager from motorola for a next release or following a patch?

Thanks in advance for your support and your understanding for a new user :)
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
I can answer this one. When you pull down the notification bar, there are a set of toggle controls at the top. If you swipe the controls from right to left, the toggle that is second from the right (two arrows that are parallel, one pointing up, one pointing down) is a data toggle. Tap that once to turn data off.
[Motorola Droid 3] xavierxavierxavier:
Thanks for your help, nevertheless i meant about the syncro of data, running in backgroung, when the 3G icone and signal came in blue. I tried to tap on and off the syncro button in toggle, whitout effect.

Do you have another advice? This issue happened only for me?

Thanks for your support :)
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
On a blank area of a homescreen that is 4 columns wide add the widget "power control widget". The fourth widget - a circle that contains two arrows pointing at each other's tails - is the data synchronization toggle. This will keep data on but stop accounts from syncing in the background.
[Motorola Droid 3] xavierxavierxavier:
Thanks again for your help. In fact I have already tried tu put on and off this toggle bouton without result.

My problem here, that is the background data are still working. To explain my issue, the wireless/3G items and signal are colored in blue in notification bar, that is mean the background data is on, so, use much battery.

This option could been put on and off following this manipulation Menu > Settings > Battery data manager > Delivery > Background data.

Then, how can I disable the background data as this settings had been deleted in the ROM?

Hopping been more clear.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Not all icon sets have coloured and uncoloured icons. The 3g icons I use are always blue. Can someone confirm that the icons used in this rom support this?
[Motorola Droid 3] xavierxavierxavier:
Another comment : as instance, when you go to the play store application, you haven't to put on the background data...you come automaticly into the market, indicating the background data work without limitation.

Thanks for your help
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drewfrank:
My N4 should be arriving in a few days and I'm thinking about getting a case. I'm leaning toward a TPU case rather than the perpetually OOS official bumper, but I was wondering: would a TPU case slow heat dissipation enough to engage thermal throttling more frequently, thus affecting the phone's performance?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] red12355:
Probably, but I don't think it's something you'd notice under regular use.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Yamahar6riding:
AT&T is sending me a brand new LG Optimus G to resolve a customer service issue I experienced with them while trying to troubleshoot an issue, actually a few issues I was having with the phone. So, I have 14 days after it gets here to decide on if I want it or the manager handling my claim said I can contact him and he'll send me the One X+ or the Note 2 instead. Amazing service, especially since I am not being forced to re-new my contract or return my One X that I currently have. What is your opinion?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jamesc760:
How big are you?

If you are a largish person with big hands, I'd say go for the Note 2.

I had my heart set on the Note 2 when I went to upgrade my phone. My heart sank when I held it in my hand. It was way too big for me.

So I came home with my LG OG. Can't be happier.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] droidiac13:
The Note2 is way too big for me and I had the HOX+ after having the HOX. Returned the + as it wasn't close to being the same phone as the original. It was laggy and ate battery like crazy. So I went back and exchanged it for the LGOG and I love this phone! Battery life isn't great, but I still like it better than the HOX+.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
I wear XXL men's gloves and I still think the Note 2 is too big. Unless really you want the stylus (which wasn't a big deal to me), I say go with the LGOG. I've had it for a full month and it's been a great phone.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Yamahar6riding:
I'm average height and hands, I don't mind the size of the Note in my hands, just when it is out in my pocket. I am feeling good about the LGOG, especially when devs start porting from the Nexus 4!
