A had problems with the skinomi type screen protectors because of the curved edges. They would collect dust right at the edge and never stick. My trick is to apply all of the pieces, and then wrap the phone tightly in plastic wrap. Make sure to use a paper towel to blot the access moisture. After about an hour or two, the edges were down for good.and I could let it dry normally.

Overkill? Maybe, but it's worked well for me each time I had to install skinomi on a curved surface
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
I've been using it for the past week. Well worth the money. It feels just like glass.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Crisisx1:
That's good to hear. Glad I ordered one.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
Installing it is annoying though. The screen is very slippery so the protector will slide around alot when you're trying to like it up. Be sure to do it in the bathroom after a shower, so all the dust has settled and you're naked. Being naked is key to a perfect installation. Weird but true.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Crisisx1:
Lmfao. Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Makaijin:
Being naked is not weird at all. I do that as well when I apply my screen protectors. Clothes most often carry a lot of dust, even clean clothes. So wearing them and with movement you can release a lot of dust back into the air. Although my girlfriend laughs at me every time I "hide" in the toilet for 20 mins performing the "perfect install". :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] bkoon1218:
If you would be willing to fork over a pretty penny, there are the tempered glass screen protectors by Clarivue and XGear. I think Clarivue is out already, but the XGear is still in production.

I'm pretty sure they would cover the whole screen.

I just got my official Nexus 4 bumper a few days ago, and I've had my Skinomi on for the past week. There is no way the bumper is going to peel it off. The bumper stays on my gripping the 4 corners and the top and bottom metal frame edge. There is almost no grip on the sides, but not that it matters, because the bumper is NOT coming off. I wish the Skinomi, or any skin for that matter, can reach the absolute edge.

Although bluetooth works flawlessly (paired to my computer and to a Jawbone ERA), I can't connect my PS3 Sixaxis. Sixaxis Controller works fine, I've already changed the bluetooth address with Sixaxis Pair Tool but still can't make it work. Does anybody here have the same problem?

Just to clarify for those who don't read the entire thread, unlocking is not illegal; it just has to be done with the carrier permission. It is illegal to unlock the SIM card via any other means.

Live or regular wallpaper?

Multi-live wallpaper - No idea.

Multi-regular wallpaper - Mult-Picture Live Wallpaper

MPLW didn't seem to have much of a drain on my battery when I was using TouchWiz. Of course, that's based on what I remember perceiving. It certainly doesn't show up on my list of top 10 apps that consume my battery power the most.

It'll seem confusing at first, so here's a video that explains it: http://youtu.be/c39PXAr9_F8?t=7m4s

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlackPhantomX:
Didn't try it with TW, but I'm pretty sure it will work. It only relies on which image or folder of images is assigned to which respective homescreen. I mostly ran Go Launcher EX when I was stock and not even rooted. It does work with Nova, ADW and Trebuct(sp?) as well. I've ran it on CM10.1, AOKP, JellyBeer, JellyBam, ParanoidAndroid, LiquidSmooth and Vanilla RootBox. All worked fine. I'm running Vanilla RootBox with Go Launcher HD for tablets right now and MPLW is working perfectly.

The only thing I can suggest is if you do end up having problems making it switch properly between homescreens, try scrolling down to its settings and play around with the choices under "Workaround for some home application." I learned that "For Honeycomb Tablet" seems to work the best for my set up, which is landscape mode.

Here are some examples of my homescreens with various ROMs, stock to custom, with each running MPLW:

MPLW also allows your lockscreen wallpaper to change separately from your homescreen:

multiscreen tutorial

---------------------------

Hi,

Yes, it IS possible to get different wallpapers on different home screens. ( Assuming that each home screen has it own STATIC wallpaper.)

I've got SG Note 2 with Nova Launcher Prime.

The number of home screens is not critical (I personally have 7 of them.)

As was mentioned you would need MultiPicture Live Wallpaper (MPLW). So install it.

Here is the sort of the tut for this task. :)

1. Prepare the wallpapers you want to allocate and put the exact number of them (e.g. 7 wallpapers if you have 7 screens) in separate folder. (FYI, I haven’t experimented with the external SD card, since I already had those 7 pictures in the internal storage.)

2. Go to Nova Launcher’s settings and enable (use ON radio button) Wallpapers scrolling under the Desktop menu. Quit Nova settings.

3. Choose Wallpaper menu item under the Menu Key and then, choose the Live Wallpapers.

4. Chose MPLW and then, tap its settings button.

5. Then, Common settings > Picture Source > Picture folder. Set the path to the folder with your wallpaper images.

6. Under the Picture Folder menu set the Selection settings to specify on which wallpaper will be on what screen, etc.

7. Use SGN2 Back and set the rest of the Common settings options (BG color, Crop, transitions etc.) under the Screen Settings menu. Make sure that you select the NEVER radio button under the Picture change interval menu.

8. Use SGN2 Back key again and tap Set Wallpaper button. Voilà!

2 notes: a) It seems like NO workaround options that MPLW offers is needed... I just set it to NONE and it worked just fine for me; b) since I had earlier changed as I wanted the Lock screen using the settings SGN2 provides, I didn’t actually try hard to make the “Use lock screen settings” option work. At least simple selecting that checkbox and pointing to the specific image did NOT work – the lock screen wallpaper remained the old one.

I hope that this tut will work for you too and maybe not only for Note 2. Honestly, when you have the specific wallpaper for each screen, this is not just looking cool , but is helpful too (better icons/folders visibility).

Cheers,

Max

Hi, I'm in the United States, using AT&T on a telus branded galaxy s3

unlocked using the jelly bean unlocking trick...

trouble is, now it won't hold a call and will disconnect at random times

saying that i'm "out of network area"

It will reconnect to the network soon after (a second or two after my call disconnects)

but will repeatedly drop calls soon after...

I can't get a call going for more than a minute!

So I tried buying an unlock code from cellunlockers.net,

and got one.

But the problem is, I can't input the codes either...

It says connection error or invalid MMI code...

So i can't input any USSD codes...

So here are my questions:

What can I do to fix this issue?

Can I lock the phone again and undo the jelly bean unlock trick?

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrnovanova:
I don't think it has anything to do with unlocking the phone, if your phone is locked you can't place a call. it has to do with the network you're on. Have you considered that you might actually be "out of network area"? Do you have the proper apn settings?

Ok. So it seems as though you are not giving enough information for anyone to efficiently be able to help you. Please provide as much info as possible. You said you are on AT&T (Not the gophone plan). You need to find out what APNs that the gophone SIM uses so that you can enter those in the APN Settings.
