[General Questions and Answers] ayydin:
Do you know any completely different rom? Like miui for example! Lately I really get tired of roms that are just cleaned from bloatwares and everything else is same as the stock. Is it only miui and cyanogen that brings us original new futures? I wonder what is so custom and they call it custom rom. Is it so hard to take notification bar down or anything else and make it different and really custom? They must be sorted as custom and modified roms at least. Many of them are shown in screenshots with themes that not appear anyhow after flash. All we got is - + some apps and endless flashing process just to get back to our favorite. Really if some devs read my appeal please think about it. I am not sure but I guess is not impossible to add functions that stock roms don't have. Even if they seem not so usual surely will be appreciated. If someone know roms that are really different please let me know. Thanks!

After all, Android is Android, so you won't escape the notifications or the must-have apps (settings, etc.) The really only thing you can do is design an app that replaces the entire lockscreen, settings, laucher, app drawer, etc. To make it a ROM only feature would be .... a lot of work for nothing (as you can simple extract the APK and well... pirate it.

So ROMs are basically a window to the heart of the creator. It's their style, their apps, their child :)

R: Any completely different rom

Try paranoid android ROM, as far as i know it's the most customizable and you can use "tablet mode" to move the notification bar down etc.

Hi today i just cracked my 2 days old n7100, the crack wasn't bad but it's definitely visible.

I'm not planning to send it to a shop to repair the screen cuz it's just too expensive.

I want to replace the screen by myself. So i just wanna ask you guys, is it possible to just replace the glass screen and not the whole thing? :confused:

Because the screen and digitizer is working fine. Just some visible hairline crack on the device itself.

So, can i just disassemble and replace the glass screen ?

Thanks guys!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T511:
You can replace glass only . its a bit annoying job but it possible... Patience ... And only patience. Here is video for s3 glass replacement . Note2 the same way. Glass you can buy from eBay for 20-30$.

You will be better off replacing the whole glass digitizer and lcd as its more difficult to replace just the glass also base on my experience with replacing the glass, it may pop up after sometime as with my HTC phone.

[Nook Touch General] FiSH947:
Hi

I have just bought a used nook, and i have a problem with it. The thing is, sometime nook is working perfectly, but sometimes it seams like a there is something wrong with touchscreen. For example, i try to hit menu button, and when i press it, the star at the top lights. When i press home, it doesn't go to home screen, but hides the menu, as if i press at the top of the screen. The problem is there like half a time, then is normal. It's random.

My nook is rooted, but this problem was there before i rooted it.

What's wrong and how to fix it ?

[Galaxy S III General] ladynaamah:
Hello,

I've found Samsung Galaxy S III White in the bar at Budweis (Southern Bohemia, Czech Rep.) yesterday... So i've picked it up and decided to find its rightful owner... BUT...

It seems like some gipsy put a great effort in attepmt to bypass IMEI validation... the IMEI is blank (0049....) and so the serial number, the white sticker (don't know how to tell it in english :D) behind battery is missing... wifi mac adress is apparently spoofed (vendor ID is Realtek, should be Samsung) similar story with bt mac... so i didn't went to police... they would take it from me and put it in the shelf forever...

If you know someone who was around budweis and lost or got stolen white SGSIII, pm me please... Albeit rendered unusable by some d**khead, you might contact samsung to fix your phone up, it might not be that much money compared to value of the phone...

Be prepared to answer few questions about the phone, i need a proof that you (or your friend who claims that the phone belongs to her/him) is rightful owner... (that's why i'm not posting photos here)

PS: if someone knows how to recover IMEI from totally blank EFS without backup (at least read it maybe it's printed on PCB or something...), i'm all ears, it might help a lot... The police should be able to find the owner using IMEI...
[Galaxy S III General] sachilleas:
Found phone in a bar? Very cliche :) Maybe it's the s4 prototype? :p

Seriously, well done for being so righteous. There are not a lot of guys like you out there unfortunately.
[Galaxy S III General] ladynaamah:
It would be a deathwish to scream "hey i'm the one who stole ur phone from ur pocket! and then fcked it up hard cause i didn't know that even 3310 had IMEI and was rendered useless after theft! Come and punch me in mah face!"

The more likely is the story that someone thought that it's not hard nut to crack, then done his job on this poor hardware, gave up and decided to bury evidence by wiping it from fingerprints and leaving it somewhere where sooner or later anyone find it and will try similar approach as him...

Maybe my righteous behavior have origin in having Xperia S, which i personally love and would be mad as hell if something like this happened to me...
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:

[Galaxy S III General] yahyoh:
maybe u can send him an email if he using one on his GS3 or maybe u can look at his contacts and look for dad - mom or friends group and call one of them maybe it will work :)
[Galaxy S III General] ladynaamah:
Great idea but unfortunately the data partition was erased, possibly because SGS III as i've learned by browsing settings have some anti-theft functionality in it, and the person who stole it had pretty comprehensive knowledge about how android works, so wiping data was possibly one of the first things he has done... also the phone is obviously rooted and since it uses pretty much stock ROM (its not even deodexed...) it was possibly required to ruin it the way it is...

Maybe its not visible very well but does anyone have any idea where IMEI could be when mtp partition is wiped? The phone's warranty is screwed up as it doesnt have the sticker below battery so i'm willing to open if anyone is positive that it's written somewhere on ie. pcb but i personally doubt it cause i've never seen it before and would be very surprised to see it now so i don't even bother putting it apart as i might harm the poor device even more...

Try reading properly, she found it in a bar, and concluded it had been stolen and abandoned as the thief obviously couldn't get it to work, or tried and messed up.
[Galaxy S III General] ladynaamah:
Please, guys... maybe my english is not that brilliant, but i believe it's clearly stated

As i've said, it was really messed up by some tard... dunno why he actually bothered removing that sticker below battery...
[Galaxy S III General] Odia:
Why are you so sure the phone belongs to a person? The IMEI being 0049... and no sticker could point to it being a shop demo model, open the phone, look at the flash chip and see if there is a green or white sticker with the words PAP.
[Galaxy S III General] ladynaamah:
Impossible... shop demo models at least here in czech republic are allways units intended for sale by manufacturer... also they are perfectly secured and close to shop personnel in case that someone gets that fancy... we have a lot of thieves in czech republic unfortunately... but i'll try to put it apart in case i find something useful...

edit: no such sticker (or any sticker at all) found,,, reassembled...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tompim:
Hello,

I am using a galaxy S2 with the Samsung official extended battery back (and the plastic cover that came with it).

I would like if to replace the cover, but I cannot find any website selling a replacement cover for this battery.

I am looking for 2000mAh version of theses things.

I am looking for something in metal, black metal, carbon fiber style, matte black or grey.

I live in France, so an european reseller would be prefered.

Thank you :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Nyssa1104:
First up you dont wont a metal back cover as this will block your GPS thats id you use it..

As for a replacement extended back cover there used to be a dealer on ebay Had one sent out to La Reunion some time ago.

Also there are some bummers that have a cut out to allow for extended battery..
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Sagar Khanapurkar:
Nyssa1104 is right, please don't go for metal back cover, you may end up blocking your GPS and eventually other connectivity issues may rise up. I was searching for the same thing today and luckily I found that it blocks your GPS transmission, thanks to the bloggers :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tompim:
Thank you for your answers. I will give up the metal!

I am still looking for a non metal one that is less slippery than the original one (something matte or with a carbon fiber-like coating).

So any link for this product would be appreciated!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] caliber2001:
why don't u try with carbon fibre look 3d vinyl sticker? it should be less slippery then.

if U want2say thanks press the 'thank you' button below the post
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vantt1:
Simply put, you cannot buy a custom battery cover for the extended 2000mAh battery. It's not mainstream enough to have one made for it. What you can do is what caliber2001 suggested. I have one as well, and I have done it to my S2's extended battery cover. Plus, it doesn't block your GPS signal!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] NUTEffee:
Thankyouuu these answers had helped me ! :good:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tompim:
Thank you very much, the matte carbon fiber sticker is a gret idea!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DjNastyDevice:
Don't use metal battery cover!

I have brushed metal battery door and metal draco design bumper and...No GPS signal! It was fine before I got the battery door.

So the metal battery cover is quite good at blocking your GPS.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] toy203:
Nice work on that! Care to post more pics?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vantt1:
I have already sold my SII along with the battery and case, so I can't take any more pictures of it. However, you can check out my other thread that has some pictures in it.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] toy203:
I received mine yesterday, the back cover is really nice and fits perfectly. The camera now rest protected and slightly indented in the cover. Probably this was the original S2 design at start, they changed for a thinner and lighter phone.

Dunno about performance yet. I use my phone a lot every day, so we'll see.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vantt1:
Yeah, I thought that as well. The battery cover is sturdier, and the whole phone has a uniform thickness, making the speaker/antenna area flush with the phone. Why didn't Samsung release the SII with a 2000mAh battery in the first place? My guess is that they wanted to compete with the iPhone 4's thinness at the time. If only smartphone manufacturers knew that anyone would prefer a phone with good battery life over one that feels like it's going to break easily.

[Xperia Z Accessories] DeadlyDazza:
There's an excellent app on the market called sixasis.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller

Sixasis connects your device to a PS3 controller via bluetooth & has its own mapping profiles.

I use it on my Nexus7 and it's brilliant.

Unfortunately for those with locked bootloaders it requires root so some will have to wait for a root exploit.

[Xperia Z Accessories] DarkKrypt:
What graffus said,

Let's hope it's available in the next update.

It lets you use the ps3 controller via Bluetooth

By first plugging it in via usb otg, letting it detect the controller -unplug from usb otg- then allowing it to connect via bt. No root required

[Xperia Z Accessories] Jotamide:
Any news on this?
[Xperia Z Accessories] akusokuzan:
There's no news... you just plug it in via USB OTG and it works. Always has worked on .244. Then you can pair via bluetooth. I've been using it on .244 stock since I updated
[Xperia Z Accessories] Jotamide:
Thanks! For some reason the C6616 has to be updated via flashtool. As of now I'm running 4.1.2, which is why I didn't see any support for the controller on the settings. Is there any list of compatible games floating around?
[Xperia Z Accessories] akusokuzan:
I'm pretty sure that any games that support a controller are supported by the dualshock.
[Xperia Z Accessories] GuyWhoLovesCoffee:
Well if you have the usb otg just pair it then run your bluetooth and press the PS button on the controller and thats it no need to buy the sixaxis app

---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 PM ----------

[Xperia Z Accessories] schlei:
its ok for compatible games with native gamepad support.:good:

but if not, like fifa 14 you have to use the sixaxis app from the market to pair the controller and setup a game profile, or just google download one for the game.
