My old case protector was showing serious signs as I have dropped mine many times (i think the protector was at issue).

I have recently changed to a different case protector with more grip and better shock absorbancy.

These phones can take a lot. :)

Ouch I bought one second hand.. Me so happy.. Need top root it soon and sell my sensation xe since it sux
[Galaxy S II General] 1Chef:
This is exactly why mine is in an otter box case. I was on holiday and decided to climb some cliffs to see the view (was amazing I was about 3 floors up) then put my phone back in my pocket (it was at least 3 quarters out I didn't realise) I jumped over a gap and it fell out, it then bounced down to the bottom of the cliff and landed half in a rock pool. I thought this was the end, climbed down and there wasn't a scratch on it :D
[Galaxy S II General] Farooq95:
Where the gorilla of ur s2 ?....
[Galaxy S II General] ryn888:
Yeah same here.
[Galaxy S II General] Imperiale:
OP, I'm also moving to the Note II. My S2 has survived these 18 months gracefully (and with just one tiny scratch on the screen without a case or screen protector despite having been dropped many times) but it's time to move onto that quad-core HD goodness. It sure has been fun! I remember just getting into ROMs, what with CM9, D4 ROM, CM10 and so forth. The experience was fun and it taught me so much.
[Galaxy S II General] Darkmind1:
I'd rather wait for these full HD screens with very large DPI and, hopefully, Samsung will not revert to PenTile Display again, like they did when they built the S3 (after the S2 having had RGB matrix).
[Galaxy S II General] gastonw:
Since Dec.15...mine got buried in sand, lost it, dropped it and finally spent an hour under heavy rain.

holidays man....

PS: Spaceships endure
[Galaxy S II General] olyloh6696:
If you were a true dedicated S2 owner you would have sent the screen to be replaced. This was simply a convenient excuse to get a new phone ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Imperiale:
It seems whenever there is a jump in resolution Samsung switches to PenTile to offset the costs. But I do hope the S4 gets a full RGB matrix.
[Galaxy S II General] bartoloandre98:
True...op is a traitor.

Where there is a will there is a way. True love knows no bounds and limits. You were not worthy of an sgs2 in my opinion.
[Galaxy S II General] dniestre:
RIP

great phone!

:(
[Galaxy S II General] Mad_Duke:
Mine fell so many times it's a miracle that from a couple of scratches on the sides the whole unit isn't destroyed. One time even from a 1st floor balcony down on the pave. My boss uses an SGS3 and I must say, my S2 feels much better quality build wise.
[Galaxy S II General] hikarugo:
@OP, why do you order a exynos 4 device again lol. This is 2013. And I believe it will never get the official cm. And it will not get key lime pie anytime soon after that android version released because no more cm and samsung starts move on to full supporting the s4 5 months later.
[Galaxy S II General] FinancialWar:
OP, that's why you should have bought a $1.50 Gel case off ebay. Those cases gives the screen edge a approximately 2mm spacing so that the screen never touches surface when dropped (assuming the surface is flat)
[HTC Droid DNA] itsonlymemories:
Hi all,

I keep getting this error popping up. Does anyone know how to fix it?
[HTC Droid DNA] wdb0:
I think I fixed this on my HTC one x+

I disabled sync with contacts in﻿ Facebook.

(Facebook>App settings>Sync contacts>Remove Facebook Data)

The error went away. I then enabled it again in Facebook to sync with exsiting contacts. still no error.
[HTC Droid DNA] chayos00:
I had this same error occur every few seconds today. Rebooting didn't help, I also couldn't isolate which app this file was associated with. When I googled it everything I found pointed to wiping the phone. I did so and am syncing my phone as I type this.
[HTC Droid DNA] aaronio:
Thanks man! This worked for my HTC DNA. Thanks to you I avoided a hard reset.
[HTC Droid DNA] Dr. K_Xen:
This happened to me last night/today as well, I guess I should have tried removing the FB Data from contacts sync.

After some logcat-ing I found some Android Runtime errors

E/AndroidRuntime(12138): FATAL EXCEPTION: ContactsProviderWorker

E/AndroidRuntime(12138): java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Time format error : 20130229

E/AndroidRuntime(12138):	at android.os.HandlerThread.run(HandlerThread.java:60)

So what I did was clear all the app data from the "Contact Storage" app on the phone (which wiped my contacts out but I just re-synced with my google account and my contacts are back). Haven't had the error since.
[HTC Droid DNA] PAGOT:
I solved it like this

You have someones birthday on 29.02. HTC I guess messed this up and it tries to match this date even though in 2013 there is no 29.

What I did was find the contact that has the bday on 29.02 and changed it to 28.02.

The ppl app crashed few times in the process but after I changed it, no error.

Not sure how if you have it linked to fb and getting it from there.

anyway factory reset or deleting contact storage data worked only for few hours for me but the change of the bday works fine.
[HTC Droid DNA] mike_augie:
yea mine is linked through fb sync and i cant get to delete that single contact may have to delete him from my facebook
[HTC Droid DNA] DRobbieD:
Had the same issue starting from the 1st of January. Solution mentioned by Dr. K_Xen seem to work for me too.

Thanks.
[HTC Droid DNA] Dragonbro:
I woke up today with that damn message popping up every 20 seconds! Google searched and did the following.

I disabled auto sync, then removed my facebook account. Rebooted phone (just for fun) and then installed facebook, sync existing contacts only, activate auto sync. So far all is good.

First of all, I want to thank the developers of ViperOneS for their ROM, its the best I found for my One S so far!

My question: is there a way to completely disable the home button in ViperOneS 1.2.1? As my device suffers from the home button bug, I want to disable it as a temporary workaround. Btw, I had this home button helicopering issue already before flashing the Viper ROM.

Hold the back button to enable multiwindow, but you have to be on the 4.1.2 update.

If you hold the back button also it will make the little handle thingie disappear, which is good because sometimes it gets in the way if left out.

I have another stupid question....

I really don't like the clock/weather widget that comes with JB and would rather have the one from ICS.... How would I go about changing that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sher The Love:
You might be able to find the APK somewhere or extract it from an ICS rom from another device. I use Beautiful Widgets from the Play Store. There are a lot of different options and themes you might like. I enjoy having the three shortcuts directly from the "superclock" itself. Click on the weather part and it brings up the weather app, the clock brings up the clock, and the date brings up the calendar. This way it saves space on my home screen. You can also have the temperature displayed in the status bar, which I like a lot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Slap-Yourself :):
I have a not so stupid/stupid question.

I want to root and flash a custom rom just like I have on every other phone....But I like the Note II. I only want it to be free of all the bloatware and be a little quicker with better battery life... But I still want the complete functionality I have now, including the SPEN. Any suggestions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Astom22:
Clean Rom and Jedi both offer what you are looking for. I have used both and I am currently running clean rom with great results. Over 8 hours screen time yesterday.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] R1K05@N:
Or if you want to stick with the unrooted way, go into Manage Apps then disable the bloat... but yeah, CLEAN ROM and Jedi are awesome rooted alternatives to stock.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
When I say "broken" I dont mean "cracked".

If you have dropped your device and then the screen doesnt work, common sense dictates that the screen is now faulty.

It could be that the digitizer cable has come loose or has snapped. It will need to be opened and looked at.

I dont really see what you expect anybody here to tell you other then to get it looked at. There is no magic words that can help you, sorry.

You dropped your device and then your screen doesn't come on anymore and for some reason you think it was a "software" problem? :eek:

Cmon dude, do you have any idea how silly that sounds? Ofcourse its a hardware problem, common sense dictates that if you drop your device and then it doesnt display anything that you have damaged something.

In the extreme unlikely event that it is a software problem you can check this by booting your device into recovery mode. If you get recovery on screen then try re-flashing kernel or rom.
