Im going to plastidip the hard piece or my commuter. Will let you know.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kl25:
hmm can i do this to the outer polycarbonate shell of my trident kraken case?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Aegishua:
I would assume so, considering plasti-dip is basically a spray paint that is more of a plastic than a paint.

If it does come out horrid after using plasti-dip, you can just peel it off.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] WarCow:
It looks really great..good job. It reminded me of someone on the Nexus S thread doing something similiar, but i think your result looks better overall.

Here is the tread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=881062
[Galaxy S III Accessories] CPTBeaker:
Good idea but I think you will be disappointed in the PlastiDip performance.

I used to be an avid 1911 pistol grip maker and tried a lot of different materials and coatings to make interesting grips.

One of the things I tried was PlastiDip coating of grips. Ultimately, I scrapped the idea due to peeling edges. No matter how well you prepare or how thick (or thin) you apply the spray, the edges will always eventually lift up and peel. The product simply doesn't adhere well enough to stay on an item that will be handled repeatedly. The dip application version of the PlastiDip product is fairly durable by the sheer thickness of the application, but even it still peels at the edges.

Good luck, I hope you have better success than I did with my pistol grips.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] hnferdo:
Yup! That's the thread that gave me the inspiration to do this. Good find!

I've redone the spray with more attention to the edges and a few more coats. Hope it holds up better than the first go. Will post after a week or so of use with impressions.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] covers:
i agree, anything being handled constantly the plasti dip will peel at the edges. i know because i did this like 2 months ago, held up great for a week then it began.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] junkimchi:
Its most likely going to chip
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Kawirider1228:
I just did mine two days ago! I posted the pictures on the backplate thread. I haven't had peeling yet do to my bumper. Covers the edges to eliminate that issue.

Any who can make a simple instruction for HowTo install JB OTA 3.14.401.27 on One X?

You can't install the JB ota just like that, tell.me what hboot you are on. I think you have to go to stock ics and from there update the hboot with the official ota from HTC ?
[HTC One X] audiavant:
Thanks for this info :)
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
No problem, hoped it helped you !
[HTC One X] audiavant:
On point 6 below, shall that recovery.img be from v.3.14 (JB) OTA? (No way back then if somthing went wrong)

1. Relock bootloader: - fasboot oem lock

2. Boot device

3. From command prompt enter: -adb reboot oem-78

4. Flash firmware: - fastboot flash zip nameoffirmwarefile.zip

5. Unlock bootloader again using your original unlock code: - fastboot flash unlocktoken

Unlock_code.bin

6. Flash custom recovery: - fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryfile.img

7. Flash boot.img from rom zip: - fastboot flash boot boot.img

8. Flash rom zip through recovery

9. Reboot and enjoy
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
This is to upgrade the hboot to be able to run a JB rom......this is not for the JB ota

If you want the official JB ota you can go back to stock 100&

Stock rom

Stock kernel

Stock recovery

Or you can run the right RUU

If you want to upgrade the hboot unofficial then use a tool if your CID is in the list of compatible hboots
[HTC One X] audiavant:
After step 1 to 7 (to prpare and update hboot) then step 8 on this shuld be to install JB or have I misunderstand?

I am on HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2-1.29.401.12_release_274955b7 and tryed to update but stuck at Beats audio boot image because I not upgraded hboot I think (flashed boot.img only).
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Step 1 to 4 is to upgrade the hboot the unofficial way

Step 5 is to open the bootloader so you can flash the custom recovery (cwm 5.4.8.0) back to enable you to flash custom roms

Step 6 is flash the custom recovery like above

Step 7 is to flash the kernel of the new JB custom rom you want to flash

Step 8 is to flash the rom.zip in the custom recovery you flashed in step 6

But what are you trying to do, go back to stock or flash the hboot unofficial ? I think we are misunderstanding something here ;)
[HTC One X] audiavant:
I just want to update from original v.2.17 and install v.3.14 JB OTA on a rooted One X
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Oke i understand that, but do you want to do it official by your carrier/HTC or do you want to do it the unofficial way

I say run the RUU with the bootloader RELOCKED and wait for the official update
[HTC One X] audiavant:
Do it official by carrier/HTC
[HTC One X] audiavant:
RUU is not out yet so the unofficial way then (Have downloaded OTA)
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Do you have the ruu ? Otherwise you can download is it here

http://www.htcruu.com/?dir=Endeavor

Put the phone in fastboot USB mode and relock the bootloader restart the bootloader and leave it in bootloader fastboot USB mode then start the ruu.exe from pc with admin rights and it flashes the phone back to stock.

Before doing this backup all you need from the sdcard because everything might be gone after doing this !
[HTC One X] audiavant:
Will it work to update OTA directly (without run RUU first) if I lock boot loader, flash boot.img and hboot.img first?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
No

Didn't you make a nandroid backup of the old original rom ?

You have to flash the ota coming from a full 100% stock 2.17 based software phone !
[HTC One X] audiavant:
Do you know what more I need to do to get it working that way?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Do this command with the phone in fastboot USB mode

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dangerzone:
Use case: Your WM6.x device has internet access, and you want to share it with more than one device.

Software needed:

1. The (normally included unless your cell service provider stripped it out) Internet Sharing application.

2. The (now free) WMWiFiRouter application http://www.wmwifirouter.com/

Instructions:

Configure these applications separately and test separately. If you can't get them to work separately, they will never work together. In my case, I am using "Internet Sharing" to share the 3G connection via USB, and I am using "WMWiFiRouter" to share the 3G connection via the bluetooth.

**note that the WMWiFiRouter app can share to multiple bluetooth clients**

AFTER you are sure that the sharing apps work correctly when run independently, you should restart your mobile.

Start the "Internet Sharing" app and connect first. (Specifically, an IP address needs to get assigned by the "Internet Sharing" app)

Then, start the "WMWiFiRouter" and initiate sharing over your second connection.

The sequence is important because the DHCP server from "WMWiFiRouter" seems to overrule the DHCP server in "Internet Sharing". Setting IP address ranges within "WMWiFiRouter" seems to cause routing problems when I set WMWiFiRouter and "Internet Sharing" to use the same IP address ranges. (This is expected and normal behavior- it was just a shot in the dark)

I know this is very old-school equipment, but, hopefully someone can find it useful.

Hi at all.

i would explain a question: why LG change lockscreen from v28a?

At v28a, the lockscreen is http://youtu.be/BV03aY0VNm0?t=1m38s (right telephone) and is a different effect from v28g, v28e, v29, and v30a...

http://youtu.be/yZYaMXC0o1A?t=14s

someone can post lockscree3.apk (and its .odex) and lockscreensettings.apk (and its .odex) in system/app of v28a?

i'm not able because i have an optimus black, and not can flash files in my phone ( LOL ) and not able to open system image of v28a

thanks :cool:

Sorry, I was wrong. There actually was a very first leaked debug version of ICS for P990 labeled V28A, which is shown on the video (it has a red border around the screen indicating an "engineering mode"). You can find it here. But all later ICS versions for P990 had the same lockscreen.

BTW, I personally don't see much of a difference, anyway. Do you mean that "ripple" effect on the video?

Added:

I extracted the .apk files from the system.img of the V28A leak. You can download them from here. There are no .odex files in the image.
[LG Optimus 2x] Flix123:
The V28a lockscreen had an other icon-style at the bottom and there was a cool unlock effect you can see in the video (like on the 4x). The new versions (V28e, V28g, V30a) don't have an unlock effect anymore.

I'd like to see the old lockscreen working on V30a. ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Dragusdrake:
if i replace the files in /system/app of my optimus black, the lockscreen become ics stock (style cyano) . ok wrong way

if i replace .xml of layout folder, from .apk lockscreen dual into .apk lockscreen optimus black -> bootloop

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skon1212:
I am knid of new with the whole Android platform, so I am not sure what the sqlite is, but I do agree that something is causing an issue with the number of messages trying to go to the phone. I also found out they are not going to the Sd card but to the internal storage. The thing is when i checked storage before and after they seem to not be taking up much room. Maybe .7gb. I just wanted them on the phone for convenience more than anything.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spycedtx:
Almost all data is stored in a database. In the case of android it uses sqlite3. It generally has good performance, but with that much data... and, yes, sms/mms data is stored internally (/data/providers/com.android.something.telephony.provider, more or less). So it's not so much that the filesize is big, but having to manage that many references on all reads (to show you proper conversation threading) will choke it after a point.

Hope that clarifies a bit.

I try to be good about cleaning when threads reach 300 or so, which is easy to hit with some friends and family over 2 days.
