[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jrmiller125:
I know I'm slacking guys but Ive had a heck of a time getting a stable ROM on here since all I post from is my phone that makes it tough to post haha. But I'm good now and will have pictures and my review up tonight after class. But to answer what I can now the case is not the same as life proof. Its kind of a knock off but the two links showed two separate cases and they are both the same from what I can tell. I'll know more when the other case arrives. And for the s pen there is no way to access the s pen without removing the case. This was OK for me as I never use my s pen other than to show people I have one. And the case did pass the water test. I left it submerged for an hour and the paper inside the case was dry.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jrmiller125:
Well I have no idea when I will be able to get pictures of this case with the phone in it since my only camera is my phone haha. But I guess here is a somewhat review. I've been using the case since I got it and overall I couldn't be happier. It does have some flaws the menu and back button are not very easy to press but I use on screen buttons so that doesn't bother me. The door to access the charger can be tight and tough to open but it seems to be loosening up. The power and volume buttons are very easy to press in fact so easy I that I bump them constantly. Seems easier than with no case. The home button is easy to press. Of course no access for the s pen I'm sure that's a deal breaker for some. The case is very rugged looking but doesn't add crazy bulk to the phone. Otterbox adds more in my opinion. It adds a decent amount of height to the phone but almost no weight. The built in screen protector is tight fitting you can't really tell it's there like with some where it will make the screen feel like a resistive touch screen. Doesn't hurt the picture at all either. The fit is great everything lines up perfect and the inside of the case has some plastic shims to kind of snap the phone in place. And best of all it was actually waterproof! As far as pictures go if people request certain pictures next time I'm around my wife's phone I'll try to take those.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mihailuican:
Quick thought

I use on Otter Defender, modded for allowing an extended battery. I am going fishing alot and I use transparent food wrap as insulation. I am happy since heavy rain, dust, dew or even submersion of phone didn't do any damage. Only photographing and listening to music are a little worse than usual (actually, photos are crappy). And no s-pen. One question for you please: by "actually waterproof" you meant resistant to water submersion or just heavy splashing? Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jrmiller125:
The "water test" I did consisted of placing the case with a paper phone insert in a pot of water held down by a weight for about an hour and 15 minutes and the paper phone was dry when I disassembled the case. Now I'm not saying throw your phone in the water lol but I am fairly confident that a quick dunk won't hurt it.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] :
Too bad that summer is still far away on Northern hemisphere ;) this case could have helped on the beach, yacht, and sunbathing days!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] TheCob:
I'm starting to think that my case got lost in the mail. I ordered both the same day as jrmiller and haven't received either.

Great news about the waterproofing JR. It's what I thought judging by the construction. I'll be doing the same test as you when and if mine ever arrive.

One thing I would like to see is taking some pictures of an object in a well lit outdoor area with and without the case. Some people have written that it affects the photo quality somewhat and that's not great for me. I intend to use it for taking pictures and videos in situations where waterproofing is a must. I'll do some of these tests and post them up when and if mine ever arrive.

I'm not phased by the lack of spen ports in the least, and I use my spen all the time. This case, for me, is only to be used when I hit the outdoors or go travelling. Last year I went to the Songkhran festival in Bangkok (must be on everyones bucket list) and had to keep my phone in a crappy water proof pouch (had an iPhone 4 at the the time) that made it such a pain to dry my hands, untie the knot and pull apart the zip tie every time I needed to use it.

I actually really don't like cases and never have them on my phones (never dropped a phone either).

For me this is all about protection from the elements in extreme cases and judging by what jrmiller has written about them, it performs.

Now the only other thing I can think of is maybe attaching some kind of float so that if it does hit the open water it bobs on the surface instead of sinking to the bottom.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mihailuican:
Confirmation

I also believe that this is kind of a very convincing test.... congrats on your case. I am using a large extended battery and have modded an Otterbox Defender for this so that is kind of late for me to adopt this new case. For the time being I'll stick to the plastic food wrap on my fishing and hunting trips... until new cases and batteries appear. Cheers.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ryn:
I have this case.(redpepper) I didn't like it day one. (I don't use cases really) But I've used it for a week and it's grown on me.

It doesn't add a whole lot of bulk, but it's not a TPU case either. The screw in headphone port is neat and works fine. It is definitely water proof in a bathtub. The seal on my charging flap was not attached and fell out when I first water tested it so make sure it's there.

With the case it is hard to touch edges of the screen. 9 out of 10 of my chargers don't fit through the hole to charge, the cable that came with the note and a .5amp headset charger is the only ones I have that fit. And I can't get to the spen.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LT1UltraZ:
can either you guys posted some detail pics of the case?

thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] TheCob:
One of mine came in the mail today, yay! A problem is I don't know which seller it came from to leave feedback for. One came whilst the other got lost in the mail.

I've taken some pics and put the phone in there to get some first impressions, and now the case is inside a big bucket of water and being weighted down to waterproof test it.

I'll have the pics up later as I am about to go to work and will get onto it when I get back.

First impressions are that it's fantastic for the use I intend it for.

Pros:

It's hard yet with a slight softness to it which feels like it will take a huge drop and have just enough give to absorb the impact.

Buttons are easy to press.

Screen is easy to register touch. It has a little bit of a gap between the plastic and the screen but it's soft so it presses up against it fine.

I reckon it will pass the waterproofing test with flying colours - will have to get back on this point though.

Camera shots appear to be great from within the case. I'll test it out later properly by looking at them on the computer but it's a big plus that they are not noticeably softer or have aberrations from the lens covering.

Cons:

It. Is. Massive. There is no way I would ever put this on my phone when I didn't have to rely on big drops or water submersion. It's fairly easy to take off and put back on though so that could be a moot point. It's comically large though.

It took forever to come in the post - a non issue for most people really and not the fault of the case.

The headphone jack covering requires you to screw off and then back on each time you remove the case as it fills the headphone jack with a piece of plastic and locks the phone into the case.

From within apps like Chrome, it's impossible to pull down the notification bar. It will pull down the open tabs instead. From the home screen I don't have this problem but from apps where you can register a pull down gesture from the top, it will do that over the notification bar.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jrmiller125:
One of mine was "lost in the mail" too. No idea which I got either.

VERY interesting case, the Juggernaut. I wonder how sensitive the screen is to touch commands. Anybody tried this, even on the first version for the Note 1? Cheers.

No, don't get your hopes high... But, I just saw Seidio announced they will release OBEX case for Note 3 :( http://www.seidioonline.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=CSWSSGT3-BR

I just asked them if there is a chance for Note 2 as well, but I'm sure it won't happen since its an old phone... Just sad since they originally rejected the idea of OBEX for Note 2 because of s-pen handling. Well, here we are with Note 3 and the same s-pen, and they will have OBEX case for it... Oh well.... Too bad we can't retrofit Note 2 into Note 3 case.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] planetbeen:
I saw that about the obex for note 3 and it made me grouchy! Sure, they tell us there's no way because of the spen then they go and do it for note 3 and figure it out! *sigh* am I going to have to get a note 3?

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] envygreen:
Hi All,

I have a problem I'm troubleshooting and wanted to see if anyone had any ideas. I'm currently on the stock AT&T ICS rom, rooted, s-on with the Faux kernel. Have been running for more than a year with no major issues.

For xmas this year I received the LG bluetooth tone+ stereo headset (hbs-730), which is comfy and has great audio quality. Until I walk around or go outside or move too much. :(

The connection range is like 5-10 feet at best and sometimes the connection has intermittent interruptions just when the phone is in the pocket of my wool coat and I'm walking to the train.

My next steps are to try my wife's vivid (stock ICS, unrooted, and stock kernel) and maybe dig up one of my old dumbphones to see if the problem happens with it as well.

My google-fu pulled up some similar complaints about bluetooth audio playback problems with ICS across many devices and ROMs, so I wondered if maybe this was a known issue and had been fixed in any of the available custom ROMs for the Vivid?

Any other ideas?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] CharlitoFreak:
The signal?

Hi, I has Motorola S10-HD and I currently on the "Extreme Holiday Dream-X2" and the music is cut but depends in the zone in the I walk, for exemple, I think that there is "interferences" for the others microwaves, and this causes this crashes!

Greetings!:good:
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] envygreen:
I expected some interference depending on where I went, but my headset was completely useless except in very narrow situations. Yesterday before I left work I downloaded and ran a bluetooth fixer app that says it resets all your bluetooth settings. Haven't had time to see exactly what it does, but I was able to walk home and back to the train this morning with only the slightest hints of interference. Curious to see if the range is better now too. I should test it because I was only able to get about 5-10 feet when inside before.

Are you saying you want to share something with Clock? I don´t think sharing is possible with the Clock app. If you want to join something, for examle an event, in another app to launch clock then Tasker is your best bet.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HkDng:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
Then it can't launch the clock....

Can't launch what isn't there.

Clock is a system app so it may be you require root access to get to it, however it seems the app you are using to start these other apps may not see the system apps so you still won't get it...

THE RULES as posted by a mod .

here has been so many "Which is the best ROM?" and "Which is the best kernel?" threads lately.

This is a reminder.. these kind of threads are NOT allowed.

Why are they not allowed? Well because that the best rom and kernel for me might be the worst for someone else. It's subjective. It's like asking who the hottest girl in the world is. Or which sports car is the best. If you ask 100 people you will get 100 different answers.

The best advice is to try them all and figure out which one is best for YOU and YOUR needs. Not based on what's best for someone else.

I have just been closing these threads but I'm going to start to hand out official warnings if it continues.

PS its bullets not warnings that are required .

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atinimaedigresyl:
I cracked my Nexus 7 screen on the left side and that cracked side no longer accepts touch input. Three letters of my password are on that side and I had orientation locked to landscape mode in my previous use before I cracked it. If I could somehow get to portrait mode I would be able to input my password and use the device with the only limit being my having to flip the device around all of the time when I need to touch the screen in that area.

Anyway of resetting the password or reorientating it from the lock screen? I won't have the money to fix it for about a month and a half and I don't want to factory reset and lose all my data.

I searched for ways to reset password and found nothing useful besides factory reset. I also searched for things I might be able to do by hooking it up to a PC via USB but not one search item turned up was even closely relevant no matther how I phrased it.

Fix with broken screen and lock

Hey guys,

This will not work for all broken screens. i had the pattern lock and broke 3/4 the screen was not responsive to touch. i was able to use google play store > manage devices. Then change password. this changed it from pattern to a password field. i was able to set a new password that was accessible in the small section of screen that worked.

I was then able to flip the screen in any direction to access what i needed including the usb debug so i could use OTG and get a mouse to control the whole thing. also i was able to get the Bluetooth connection going and control it over my computer and do anything i needed.

Hope this helps someone.

Hello

I recently got a HTC Desire X (for my girlfriend). It was bought in Germany and as far as I can tell it's loaded with a region specific software version, only supporting a handful of languages.

The one that's missing and we'd like to have is Dutch.

Is there an official HTC factory rom (or whatever it's called) with Dutch language ?
[HTC Desire X] MaartenXDA:
I believe the stock ROMs by hasoon2000 have all the languages enabled.
[HTC Desire X] didi.be:
Thank you. I guess this is a relevant topic to start with ?
[HTC Desire X] Stereo8:
Yes.
[HTC Desire X] didi.be:
Well, I went through that topic and a few others. Still a lot I need to learn. But I guess best school is to just go for it

However, before I venture into flashing, I'd like some "peace of mind" advice first:

- can I take a complete backup of the current software/rom (not talking about settings of photo's) ?

- can I restore that backup in case I mess up ? Would be a shame to end up with a bricked phone...
[HTC Desire X] ranalakshay36:
Yes you can take the backup of ur current rom by cwm recovery and restore them too. But u have to choose recovery wisely as I used this one

I feel such a noob, but right now I can't see the forest through the trees: rom, ruu, rooting, (de)odexed, fastboot ... Is it my lack of intelligence or are the tutorials just not clear enough ?

I guess you are refering to ClockWorkMod ROM Manager for backing up and recovery, right ? And TWRP is an alternative app to do the same ?

Both are apps that run on the device itself, afaik. But it would make more sense to me to recover using a pc application and have the backup's stored separatly. Does that exist ?
[HTC Desire X] Stereo8:
OK, I'll just write a book.

So, a recovery is a piece of software that you can run before Android boots up. With a recovery made by users of XDA or any other developer, you can flash custom ROMs. Custom ROMs are firmwares made by developers on XDA. The ROM you found can be flashed through a custom recovery. Flashing is rewriting a partition on your device. Partitions are recovery, data, system... My recommendation is to flash TWRP because it looks good, not like hieroglyphics... :) You can find instructions on the TWRP thread. Then, install (flash) the ROM I mentioned earlier. Hit thanks please, it took me ages to make this noob-proof...
