[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snickerpop:
Right now I have a slim case on my phone, while it does protect the back of the phone. It does not do much more then that, and the front screen is very exposed.

Right now I'm looking to buy this case

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Blue-RUGGED...454592?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item416f6f8840

Does anyone have experience with this case? Or another rugged case?

I know the ionic guardian is a thing, but I don't like it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ackbarthegreat:
I'd rather have this case.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-Nexus-4-...Black-Blue-Inverse-Y-Kick-Stand-/360550503756

Your phone will most likely fall on a corner, having silicone rubber in the corner instead of the polycarbonate should provide better protection. Now if only I could fine a seller that ships to canada.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Richieboy67:
I believe there is silicon under the hard plastic. I had something similar.It also has a kickstand. Better off going with the op case.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neugenusis:
I got mines in the mail today. Pretty solid case, especially for the price. I previously had the Exact Armor/ionic guardian case, but I needed a belt clip combo, so this deal did the trick.

FYI, I ordered the blue rubber with black shell one. The blue is much darker compared to the listing pictures, almost seeming like it has a bit of violet in it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ftarules:
In the picture it seems that the phone case has a kick stand. Is that so? I am talking about the case itself, and NOT the belt holster. Let me know.

I'm waiting for the Ballistic Shell Gel and the Trident Aegis as far as rugged cases go. Hopefully they come within a few weeks!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neugenusis:
Yes, the case itself has a built-in kickstand. It reliably clicks into place when folding it in and folding it out. The blue in the photo is actually darker in person.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dynamicpda:
Quick questions:

neugenusis, if i understand the picture correctly, the holster protects the screen? does it slip in and out easy? i would use the holster to protect the screen instead of a pouch. does the clip remove (to keep it in my pocket)?

Thanks!

Background:

Right now I am using a $5 TPU cheap case with a leather pouch. The combo works really well. I don't like screen protectors and the pouch keeps the phone perfectly safe from scratches when I have it in my pocket.

I'm afraid the thin TPU won't be good protection against a hard drop so that is why I am interested in these tough cases.

Also, did you guys consider this case?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/FULL-BLACK-...511348?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item51a5d465f4

---------- Post added at 05:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 AM ----------

Richieboy67, can you elaborate on why you think OP case is better? These two cases seem to be the exact inverse of each other. One has an exo-skeleton that clips into the silicon on the corners and the other has one that clips in on the sides. Silicon material is absent to make the notches so OP's case on the corners has less material and thus seems more vulnerable there than the one ackbarthegreat has suggested.

Thanks in advance for your opinions.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ackbarthegreat:
My thoughts exactly. I figure if it is good enough for people designing otterbox, ballistic etc it is good enough for me.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neugenusis:
The phone is suppose to face the holster, thus protecting the screen. The phone won't fit comfortably facing the other way. There's enough friction between the phone and holster that if I violently shake the holster, the phone still won't come loose even at the slightest. While phone and holster is on my belt, I grip the holster with 2 fingers and push the bottom of my phone upward with another finger till the phone gets halfway through the holster, then i pull the phone entirely out with my hand, so wouldn't consider its an instant simple slip in and slip out, but I don't consider it difficult either. It gives me a better sense of security. The clip does not appear to be removable from the holster unless, I suspect, some excessive force is applied.

The silicon piece covers the entire back and edges of the phone. The hard plastic shell goes over the silicon. The silicon is thinner where the hard plastic shell covers for an overall flush shape. The one ackbarthegreat suggested, the corners are full silicon. On mine, its half silicon, half hard plastic. Though ackbarthegreat suggestion's corners does seem slightly thinker, I wouldn't say there is significantly less material. It is similar to Seidio's Active case for the N4.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparta507:
have you even tried any of these amazon/ebay cases?

i got my step-father a ballistic case for his S2 and i just got the Exact Armor case from Amazon for my Nexus 4, the fit is just as good minus branding. and lets not begin with the price, i love ballistic's cases but it hard to argue a case that is virtually the same thing for -$20.00 in price. this case seems to be on par with a Kraken case... but oh well... i want to make a video review once i get this case

It's the apk modification. This can be done in many custom ROM and via zipthemer or metamorph for those who had stock ROM or just a rom that doesn't support it. Both ways, you must be rooted and must have stock recovery.

folks iam kind of stuck at bad position. i recently found my old g1 figur i mess around with and see if i can install a rom, so start following couple of guides.. i get my phone rooted then i install A-ROM recovery then i install bootloader and then the radio 2.22.28.25.. then i was flashing roms and for some odd reason none of them worked like some goo up to boot animation and then get stuck in boot animation for infinite time or some wont get past G1 screen.. any one who went through this or knows the answer kindly help i am somewhat technical guy but not very. any help is appreciated.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Make sure the ROMs you choose support your radio/SPL if not you may need a different kernel. Also do complete wipes, fastboot erase system -w or a super wipe is best.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Critical_DoubleShot:
thanks for the reply dem... so i went on g1 roms and downloaded roms that stated these SPL .....13d and radio 28.25 and i have that boot loader and radio so when i flashed the rom and the custom kernel directed by the guide it boot up but for some reason both of the roms that i tried keep looping the boot animation.. also when i touch the buttons they do light up even the keyboard lights up.. i still dont understand why is every rom i try to install is looping.

could you guide me kindly, if you have clue why is this happening
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] cmajetic:
Problem is mentioned in the title. Every time when I turn my phone off in the night (5 min ago for example ) it reboots instead of turning off.

Everything stock, no root, not unlocked, nothing. Software .195

Any ideas? I don't get it, after the reboot it doesn't ask for pin but I get a signal, after second time turning it off it is really off...

Thanks.

I too noticed this on .195, on a couple of occasions it rebooted instead of shutting down. I have no idea why this occured, but it seems to have stopped after upgrade to .223.

perhaps it's a bug that Sony themselves recognised in 195 and fixed.

LOOOL - you must have had finger on side of the phone, as that is where power button is !!!!!!!!!!! and it is right next to Vol+ !!!!!!!

But i am not saying it is your fault either, it's just possible we all did this, just as it is possible it is a glitch in the matrix ;) (bug on younger f/w)

Either way, worth knowing if it happens again!!!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] cmajetic:
no i don't have to have my finger there.

i have the finger on the power button 1 second then the menu pops up on the screen, i can wait nothing happens, then i press TURN OFF on the screen so no possibility that i have my finger again near the volume up button. and it still rebooted before the latest update.

Hi everyone,

I have recently bought myself a Nexus 7 3g(not opened yet) and i want to know what i need to know about before i root it (using Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit v1.6.2). I know to check the usual thing like making sure everything works. But when i root do i need to know such as know the baseband version/ril version (matching pair)? If there is any issues using this method of rooting with recovery installed?

Or is it as easy as Unlock>Root>(Custom Recovery box checked) and to store back to factory default Flash Stock+Unroot>OEM Lock

I saw this in teh forum "When I drop to the command prompt in TWRP, it says "insufficient space" or something similar, and is trying to backup to the /sdcard/media/TWRP directory instead of to the PC. I have an 8GB model w/ about 6GB in use." Is this still an issue? should i be concerned?

Should i grab a copy of this? 4.2.1 (JOP40D) - md5: e5d22e0791ab2f5d470bba77fbd6771d - size: 277.7MB. Should this be matching to mine?

Many Thanks!!!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ilgreco112:
Hi everyone, my questions here may seem strange or noobish, but I'll ask them anyways,

I follow these forums (XDA), since a good time now, (since I have my Xperia X1, got it nov 2008 to be exact, but I discovered XDA a little while later), and I read lots and lots of threads and posts everyday, I was there when CWM was born, I flashed tons of ROMs on my X1, WM6.1, WM6.5, Android since 2.1 I think, I had stopped all this for some times when I had much work to do for school and work etc. and I came back 3months ago with XPERIA P...

I followed and read almost every thread in here, and I'm sorry to announce that I find all this a bit Messy (not Lionel)...

I want the best Experience for my smartphone, and here I'll explain what's the "best" experience for me, and I wish you could tell me what's the best thing to do for it.

1) I love Xperia Stock UI, that's why I want stock XPERIAnce :p

2) I love smoothness, thats why I want a light ROM and good Kernel =)

3) I know that .54 FW is insanly buggy, so I'll certainly need some tweaks

so now that you've read my little story, I think I have all your attention so I can ask my questions, that's why I'll type them below:

1) What's the best ROM for me?

- I think about getting this one (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2069543) I want to know what you think about it, seems really good to me, but don't want to waste time flashing and reflashing, I used to do it with my old phone so now I just want to flash once and stay with My phone like it is all the time

2) What's the point of getting another than stock Kernel?

- I mean here that okay it can be smoother and have better battery or benchmarks, but tbh I don't really care of that all unless there's a big difference, so is it a real difference between stock kernel and Sliding or Thjap?

Yeah I know my question seem noobish and may have been asked many times, but I'm searching for someone who can make my wishes come true, or at least show me the way to do it by myself, because actually I learn computer science but all this is not what we learn at school, so I don't knwo where to start...

Now For all of you that didn't fall asleep while reading my story (could write a book lol it's so long) hit the thanks button (just to know if you reached the end of my post LOL, joke no need to do it)

Seriously for every person that reaches the end of my post, just feell free to help or teach me how to make my own ROMs, because yea there are tutorials and stuff, but it's always better to have someone showing you the first steps, it helps you keep focusing on it and not being bored,

I thank every guy here that can help me or just took the time to read my looong long post =)
