[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] doomed151:
Tried both matte and clear before; decided not to use either of them. I've used the phone for almost half a year and so far the display is still in mint condition. Plus, it has an oleophobic coating, which works very nicely.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ghost2482:
Shifted from matte to clear, clear seems much better...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
It all depends on the user in my opinion. I'm inside a lot so I find clear gives the best quality picture, where as if I was outside I'd take the lesser quality for less glare.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmagsho:
Having tried both from multiple vendors, I always go back to clear. The matte finish may cut down on the glare somewhat (or so they claim), but as others here have noted, it ruins the look of the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] taufiiqqq:
Clears are best in terms of display... They show true colors but it takes smudges and oil so easily that u have to clean it frequently with ur palm or a cloth

Matte is better imo as it doesnt attract smudge or oil so easily and it is very smooth indeed but imo matte doesnt show true white colors. And looks cheap obviously
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vendroid:
Clear because of the beautiful screen, mate could be smother but not as nice to llok as the clear
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Andryshka_by:
IMO, the matte one only. I've been using it for 2 months already, and is doesn't have a single scratch on it, as well as fingerprints that may just be wiped off with my palm. It's not the same with clear screen protectors, my friend has one so I'm able to compare them : the clear one doesn't have any scratches, either, but it has to be wiped with a piece of cloth at least twice a day. Also, the matte protector gives the GN some really unusual look.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] negrobembon:
clear only
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpr0062:
LooL

I ordered the Clear and the Matte, online. Then, went to the mall and had them put on the Matte on the Battery Cover, and the Clear in front. It's been on for a few days, and not only is it a dust magnet, but does attract fingerprints. I was thinking of switching to the Matte one, and ... well,

I came across your amazing argument.

"clear only"

Anything to back this up? Perhaps some side by side pics? maybe.... a reason? :P

Based on your arguments, ...... I'm going down to Ghost Armor in the Mall, and telling them to replace the "clear" with the matte......

It's clear, what the right decision is :)

;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neera:
I will only use clear screen protectors on my screen.

I had a matte one for a few days since the wrong ones were sent to me and they were awful.

They may reduce glare and fingerprints are not as noticeable as with a clear one, but the look of the screen is ruined. It becomes milky & grainy vs sleek & shiny with a clear protector.

The matte protectors feel a bit like sliding your finger on paper.

As a religious Swype user I prefer the smooth feel of the clear ones.

There are some clear protectors that feature an oleophobic coating just like your glass screen which repels fingerprints a little bit, but it's not a big issue for me to give my screen a quick wipe if the prints bother me.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiNcKz:
Hi all, I just got my Nexus 4 & Im trying to install CM10.1 on it.

I rooted it using this guide: http://forums.androidcentral.com/nexus-4-rooting-roms-hacks/224861-guide-nexus-4-unlock-root.html

After that I did this exactly:

1. Downloaded CM10.1 & Gapps from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2020859

2. Copied both to the /sdcard directory

(3. Downloaded ROM Manager when doing the CWM Method)

3. Downloaded TWRP Recovery 2.3.3.2 (Or CWM Recovery 6.0.2.3. CWM didnt work so I tried with TWRP)

4. Booted with TWRP (Or CWM) through fastboot: fastboot boot recovery.img

5. Wiped Cache + Dalvik Cache + Factory Reset

6. Loaded .zip file (CM10.1)

When it starts both TWRP & CWM say

set_perm: some changes failed
E: Error in /sdcard/cm-10.1-20121227-NIGHTLY-mako.zip
(Status 7)

A quick search told me that the "Status 7"error means that the ROM is not compatible with my phone, But I have a Nexus 4 so it should work?

Havent seen anybody else with this problem so Im posting it her, Hopefully you guys can help out?

PS: USB Debugging was on, I tried wiping ALL the data & Pushing the CM10.1 through ADB.

I installed CM10 on an LG p506 Thrive some weeks ago, That worked.

I bought the phone 2nd hand when it had CM10.1 installed already, Then I returned to stock using this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2010312

Everything worked but I decided to install CM10.1 again (Liked it more) but I keep getting that error. Reinstalling Stock JB always works fine.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyokeun1234:
Might be a bad download? Did you try downloading again and using that?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiNcKz:
Downloaded it over 5 times... After hours of trying I just deleted everything & Started over, Redownloading everything.

Got the same results.

Im thinking of jut wiping EVERYTHING with TWRP right now, Reinstalling Stock JB (For the 10th time) & Restarting the whole process, But I fear the same thing is going to happen...

Been trying this all day & Its always just giving the same result.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Did you verify it's MD5 Hash? Download HashTab (google it) and verify it with the website.

Bootloader is unlocked correct? (Verify it.... bootloader mode should say its unlocked, and "Google" splash on bottom should have a lock)

Try flashing JellyBro (found in Android Dev forums) same thing as CM10.1 but with cherry picks.

when you mean "load" you are flashing right? (install)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiNcKz:
Looks like all the 6 downloads had a different MD5 hash... Decided to download again for no reason, Compared it with the site hash & Bam, Perfect match.

I dont know whether to be happy about it matching or be pissed about the 6 others that dont. Honestly Im just frustrated by now...

Im still in the TWRP menu right now, Can I simply push the CM10.1 through ADB to the sdcard & Then install it?

That way I dont have to restart EVERYTHING again...

EDIT: OH MY GOD! It worked!

I love you Mr.Sir, I love you so much! Im so relieved now, Ive been trying this for 6+ hours!

Im not used to downloading a file & Getting another so I didnt consider any checks, Seems like I will do so for every "sensitive" file like this now.

Thank you alot, YOURE AMAZING!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
No you're amazing for working your butt off trying to resolve it and then when you weren't able to resolve it you finally posted. Unlike most users, they ask for help right away PLUS you didn't use the toolkit. Huge kudos to you sir. Plus you're a new member, welcome to XDA as well. Off to a great start :)

Very awkward that you redownloaded and all of a sudden MD5 hash matches lol, HashTab only checks hash. It's weird how your computer had different MD5 hashes, mines are always identical so I stop checking. At least the recovery didn't flash it, otherwise your phone would of been in a messy spot. Only things I check for MD5 are if im updating radio or bootloader.

What browser are you downloading it on? Try downloading from other browsers if it doesn't match after two redownloads. Did you download the same file or did you try the Jellybro alternative I suggested?

Disclaimer: Flash at your own risk, I take no responsibility if this would damage your device. Better to have back-up before flashing.

I've been searching thoughout the xda-developers forum for an Inverted Mms.apk cause I don't like the default one which is in WHITE. I found one on Nexus 7 forum, a JB 4.2 one which I'd been using but it has a bigger resolution and lack a feature on our Stock CM10.

So, I themed our Default Mms.apk and share it here with you guys.

Features:

Increased size of QuickMessage Pop-up

471 Emoji Icons

Increased size of MMS to 1MB.

Changed icons of Smileys

Change "Read" to "Close" on Notifications

UPDATE:

Revert to old size of QuickMessage due to bug in Landscape. Sorry.

Increased Max lines in QM from 2 lines to 4 lines.

Change font color for Compose to ICS Blue as Message Sent is in ICS Blue.

Just flash in Recovery the attachment below. If not work, just extract the Mms.apk and push it to system/app and give it right permission, rw-r--r--. Reboot.

I rebase this MMS to the ones present on szl.kiev PAC ROM which is very themable. This works also with FXP/CM10 ROMs. I myself use CM10.

I inverted some of the menus and the rest is for you to theme.

Just rename to Mms.apk and push to system/app, give permission rw-r--r--. Reboot and Theme yourself.

Hello (I'm French :p )

First thanks for your work. ;)

I really like this app but I've a problem with the color of smileys.

I would like to have smileys without any color filter. I've try to set the tranparency but it doesn't seem to work.

I have search in "data/data/com.android.mms/shared_prefs/com.android.mms_preferences.xml" (It's just an idea. ^^ ) but I don't know which values enter in this file.

Have you got any ideas to delete the smiley color filter please ?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iJimaniac:
Hello, after a full day of googling, messing my device up, and headaches - here I am.

Before I go any further it would probably help to explain my device configuration. I have a galaxy player, which has no mobile data or cellular capabilities (essentially a phoneless galaxy S), running unnoficial cm9 ICS. Because cm9 hasn't been optimized for media players, I still have the phone features such as the dialer built-in.

My goal is to get google voice working with the sip feature on the cm9 dialer. Through the help of pbxes.org and trial and error, I have mostly succeeded. The one minuscule yet painfully crippling issue I have is the ringtone doesn't play when I receive a call, even though it vibrates and shows the call screen normally. Now before you ask the painfully obvious; YES I tried setting a new ringtone, NO my device isn't in silent mode, and YES my volume is turned up.

I haven't tried a data reset yet, but that is last resort as I have no way to nandroid. I was wondering if this is a bug with cm9 or ICS in general, or a device specific issue I have. I would be so thankful if anyone that has experienced this and possibly found the solution could share it! Thank You.

I have looked at other dialers but none of them have the sip capabilities. I also tried some sip clients like sipdroid - which rang fine, although interestingly simplecsp fails to ring just like the stock dialer. I am thinking it is a bug with our cm9 since system ui sounds also seem to not play.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldflame09:
There is no settings with in settings that allows you to put the ringtone so you might have to do it the way I did it. The way was is you have to download zedge and find the ringtone you want and then download it and then it hit set as and it will ask you what you want to set it as and set it as your ringtone and it'll work

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iJimaniac:
Hmm, I have no problem setting ringtone.

I have made several important discoveries;

The reason the system UI sounds don't work is because the system volume is set to 0 and can't be adjusted in the system settings, but I used AudioManager to turn it up. Now system UI sounds work fine but still no ringtone.

Another discovery is when I set poweramp to not pause for incoming calls, I hear the ringtone! It plays over poweramp, but this is a huge clue to my problem.

No space left

As I was installing all 28 APKs in the system/app folder, I got a message that there was not enough space to complete the move. how do I make more space? can I delete the APKs that I've already installed?

Solved - move some of the stock apps to data/app. they will still work if stored in that folder.

one step that seems to be missing is to install the APKs. is that right?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] prokennexusa:
Root and Google Play for Amazon 7" Kindle Fire HD Software Version 7.2.3

No, you do not need to install these APK's, just Reboot per the instructions.

Just FYI, all most of the installs do is just move an apk to /data/app, some are a little more

involved. In the case of the Google Apps, these were sourced from Google Development directly.

They were designed to be used by Manufactures and Developers (like ourselves) with a manual install.

When you copy everything to /system/app and reboot, this triggers the APK's to do what is needed

to function properly. No other install is required, just do not forget the critical lib files (before you reboot).

Click Install and let the program finish installing.

Did that take care of the issue?
