[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
I dont mind a naked note, but I use a nilken case because I absolutely despise the plastic feeling of the phone... who makes a large unwieldy 5.5" behemoth and give it a glossy and slippery plastic back... sigh... been spoiled by HTC's use of metal and soft plastic and the nexus 7's rubbery back. Otherwise I have no screen protector or insurance, I trust in my ability to hold the device as being able to hold it easily (without it feeling like a bar of soap is part of usability in my book)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] efbenson:
Shattered my screen today rocking naked. Had a g1 gs1 and gs2 naked, but the problem with this phone is the edges are not raised. Hit the edge on concrete and your screwed. I was anti protector, but this phones screen is too available to shatter.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] glensta:
I am. It slips in and out of the pocket nicely. I know the risks and pay for insurance. Even with some cases you can buy, if the phone falls and hits the screen , it'll shatter.

Threw down a thanks to Op..... Why not :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] asidrave:
I keep mine in a case and holster. Also have insurance on it. The phone is uncomfortable to keep in my pocket. Not worth it for me at any cost not to have it protected in a case.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] FifteesGlasses:
I'm a sissy.

Bodyglove, Flygrip, and a Spigen screen protector for me. I pretty much keep mine around in light armor.

I have insurance as well, but I can't help it. It's too much of a hassle to redo everything and live with a dumbphone for a couple days.

Also, I kinda like the look better in a case than naked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jghidalgo307:
I was using my note with elago slimcase (IMO is the best hard slim case in the market) but ever since i had a couple bootloops due to my flashing addiction and had to remove the battery, the feell and look of a naked note2 is just something to behold. And ever since its just my naked note and I.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] friend'scatdied:
No, because of the stupid cheap chromed plastic that Samsung uses around the edges.

Not only is the chrome finish easy to scratch due to its softness, but it actually rubs off over time revealing the color of the plastic underneath. Even if you keep the phone away from any dust or scratching agents the chrome will wear away in spots due to casual friction (in/out of pocket) in a few weeks/months. It looks terrible.

The only Galaxy phone I have able to use without a case that hasn't degraded cosmetically within a few weeks is the Galaxy Nexus. That phone didn't have any chintzy finishing. Please Korea, the chrome plastic trend needs to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] darekz:
Most of the time my Note is case free, but I have Invisible Shield installed. I like textured feel of back of the Note with protector installed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] lojak29:
If u dont have a case for this monster a good rugged one at that u are pissin away money loosing resale value risking a shattered screen

I ALWAYS USE A CASE ON ALL PHONES
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] nmw407:
I can't go naked on this phone. I had a tpu case on it since I got the phone, but last night I had a dream where the phone fell and hit right on the screen and shattered into pieces. This morning, I put it in the folio case. I'd rather be secure.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EvoYas:
Rocking it naked till I get my case. Should be here soon. I would love to keep it without case but I am not gonna pay a monthly bill for that, so might as well protect it my self. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Android_Guy:
I pulled off a "naked note" for about a week, then took a fall and screen shattered! :crying: Now I know how those iphone guys feel!

You are gonna have major butt-hurt when you shatter your screen....GET A CASE!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] saseekutz:
Call me a gambler, butt naked here. Ill maybe do a nice gel skin if i can find one. I've just never liked cases that much.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] OwenW71:
Never. The darn thing is too big and slippery. A thin TPU case and a cheap screen protector buys me a ton of peace-of-mind.

I have insurance, too, but I really don't need to go through the hassle of replacing my GN2 if I can help it. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Swyped from the closest Galaxy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] chillaxnphilx:
I've got the housing for both white and titanium so whenever this one gets worn down I'll swap out to the other one.

I agree with everyone else though whether you go naked or not..if u drop this on its screen ur done. Insurance is ultimately the best way to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] r.snyder:
Cases are for children and the clumsy. All my phones stay naked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] skater4690:
Been naked the whole time and I'm super pissed about the screen dropped it from waist high and it landed on carpet on the corner and it cracked the freaking screen!!!! F this gorilla glass 2 my nexus s and vibrant were amazing this sux!!! Glad I have insurance. How would I use it though lol never used insurance through tmo
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ericshmerick:
I find the Samsung flip cover to be adequate. No it doesn't provide drop protection, but if you hold it with your left hand gripping the flap and right hand gripping the phone, it's very assuring and I don't think I'll ever drop it that way. The cover really helps provide a secondary grip.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] cheapshot789:
Since the phones started getting bigger I stopped using cases just makes it bulky and ugly, whats the point of having a nice phone and covering with ugly bulky cases. That being said I have my note with flip case since its really not a case adds no bulk just covers screen.

[General Questions and Answers] MGREX:
The Allwinner A31 is a very nice SoC but I couldn't any phones based on one or any other from that brand, only tablets.

Any idea why?
[General Questions and Answers] ivoidwarranty:
AFAIK, Allwinner only makes application processors - which means for the A31 to be used in a smartphone, the phone manufacturer needs to combine A31 with a discrete baseband solution from others like Intel / Qualcomm / Broadcom. For that kind of combination (apps + baseband) to work, either Allwinner has to put a lot of effort / the phone manufacturer has to put a lot of effort. I'm guessing Allwinner is not providing support for smartphones at the moment and the manufacturers are just choosing better supported chipsets for their smartphones.
[General Questions and Answers] alexishoop:
allwinner now has the a31s, but still needs baseband solutions, besides the allwinner formfactor is for phablets and up, it seems AW is focussing more on tv.
[General Questions and Answers] Lukmanul:
All the chips always have a weakness, if that weakness can be repair, that would be chance to appear another weakness from the same chips, that's why
[General Questions and Answers] MGREX:
Thanks, I guess is the same with rockchip right?

Still I see the allwinner site has a listing for phones, maybe the A31 has baseband integrated now?

Any idea if the A80 is planned for phones as well?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Casper[DK]:
Hi all

I did try to search the forums, but was unable to find any help on this issue.

I can easily transfer small files from my Windows 8 pc via USB cable on the MTP protocol to my samsung galaxy s3. However if I try to transfer a movie of like 5GB it first of all it takes a long while before I even see the progress bar moving (minutes) and then when it does start transferring it seems slow and at some point something interrupts the transfer. I think it's some sort of locking mechanism or power saving feature, but I can't figure out what does it.

So anyway... the most important thing is to figure out why the transfer is interrupted after a while. Any guesses?

Furthermore is there some software for us who like to watch shows on our cell phone, where it's easy to get the next few episodes on our phone? Like something that can automatically detect that you've watched 2 of the 5 episodes on your phone, will automatically delete those and add another 2? And yes it would need to be in the correct order (like if I had episode 1-5, watched 1 and 2, then it should transfer 6+7).

Oh and yes the micro sd card is a fast one, with 45MB/s write and read and no I don't have a micro sd card reader.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winol:
I prefer to transfer large files via sd card, that is, removing the card from phone an inserting it in pc, and yes, it is a long time wait.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ballsofsteel:
What file system is the SD card in? Remember if it is FAT32 files larger than 4GB cannot be used, you have to format it to exFAT to make it work.

Go back to cm?

There was a touch wiz dialer code that made signal better by connecting directly to the tower

I forgot what it was but I'm sure someone else will point it out to you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
Well they're two different frameworks there, tw and aosp. Also cm10 will show you signal strength [true], whereas tw can show you full bars and you'll have crappy service.

Other option is you could try changing your modem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ChaseBroyles:
A dialer code to try in TW is ##72786#. It will update everything and reactivate your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] betoishly:
Which Modem would be my best bet? I'll try the Dialer code first.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
just go from newest > old. Mileage will vary; some work better for other varied on location.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] j0hnq229:
About a year or so ago I installed Prime (HTJ85B.prime_epad-1.7-20110804) and Kernel (2.6.36-3-g32125f7-dirtyclmesyn@clemsyn-MM061 #92).

I haven't really used my Transformer that much, but now I'm wanting to use it more and trying to fix an issue I have with it.

Everytime I power it on, I have to do the Power + Vol Down step and then press Volume Up for it to load to Android, but if I simply press Power then it gets stuck at the splash screen and never moves. I've tried rebooting into Recovery from Rom Manager and from holding down Power when the device is on and hitting recovery, but it just reboots and gets stuck on the splash screen.

Wanting to get an updated Rom and all installed, but I cannot figure out how to get to Recovery in order to install it.

Can anyone help with this issue, please?

Hey gurus,

So I was trying to flash the mod to get the circular battery indicator in akulgupta100's CM 9 v2.0 ROM. My phone has CWM 4 (as an aside, if I boot into recovery through ROM Manager, it boots into CWM 5. Going through HBoot or the ROM's restart screen boots me into CWM 4).

[Thunderbolt General] RunNgun42:
So I grabbed one of those bluetooth controllers for my TB to goof around with some classic snes/genesis roms. Unfortunately the market is flooded with various versions, half of which appear to be ripoff's of each other (obviously stolen gui's and menu hierarchies). I remember a long time ago when this was a problem. Some author would release a true to form emulator, then get plagiarized by knock-off brands trying to sell their work on the market and make a quick buck, sometimes even with bundled spyware. So I've tried a few different emu's and most of them seem to have some lag issues. I look them up to see they were last updated in 2010, or 2011 or something along those lines.

So I'm wondering if anybody has any recommendations for good emu's that run great on the TB. We're talking 100% perfect framerate, just like the snes. Perhaps this isnt even possible given the TB's limited horsepower, but hopefully it is. It also wouldnt hurt to post any emu's to avoid, so I dont start getting notification spam and junk like that.
[Thunderbolt General] santod040:
Pretty sure THIS is the best free one for SNES out there.

Someone else may have a better suggestion, but I think this one is hard to beat for free.
[Thunderbolt General] disconnecktie:
Snes9x or gsnes. I have tried almost every single one on the market and both of those have been better. They all have little quirks that make them a little off. Snes9x was the very best snes emulator for pc and the same developer made the Android version.
[Thunderbolt General] Dannar:
I use the oids. Snesoid, nesoid, etc. Last time I checked you can get them free on the slideme market. 64oid you still have to pay for.

Emulation: my personal solution to all the "angry birds" games that flood the market.

Enjoy sir.

Duely blundered from my thunderdolt.
[Thunderbolt General] RunNgun42:
Indeed, I have tested every emulator I could find for the Thunderbolt and the 'oid series seem to do best overall.
[Thunderbolt General] quickdraw86:
I've tried them all and snes 9x is the best IMO. it's available on the dev's site...

alot of these newer ICS/JB roms require you to update to the new ICS radio 1.09.01.0320
