I have the body kit from Xtremeguard. I have used the back one since I got my NExus 4, but it feels very rubbery. I'm wondering if the front screen protector is the same as the back one. Thanks
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Buddy3927:
Yes it is, but it looses some of that feeling as you use your phone over time. I have one on my screen and like it much better than Zagg's.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] DDeveryday:
This does not look good.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] mackster248:
That goes away after a day. Mine did.

Or you can use a blow dryer to speed up the process.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] DDeveryday:
Do I set the blow dryer to hot or cold?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] malikadnanm:
U can usually squeegee that stuff out
[Nexus 4 Accessories] K0WAWA:
If I were you I will redo the installation, too many large air bubbles. If you know how to paste dry SP, use the similar technique when placing your wet SP. Wrap your squeege with thin cloth before using, that way you'll have less orange peel effect.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] sunnygupta:
I had xtremeguard protector for about 1 week and it was just so bad. Feels so bad while using. I just peeled it off and threw in dustbin. Not going to use that again even if I get it for free. Ordered a spigen one.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] RavenII:
I have NO idea what you guys are talking about...I put the XG skin on the back and it damn near looks like glass. It's just the way you guys are applying it...nothing else, I screwed up my first one (because I hurried) but the second one I took my shveet assed time with and like I said...glass.

Now, the nature of the material is such that it won't be like the more rigid screen protectors...but I've gotten it as close as possible to being without orange peel as possible.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] DDeveryday:
Do you mind giving me some tips on applying the xg screen protector? I have took off the first one and applied a second one. It's the second day and most of the bubbles have disappeared which is very nice. The only problem I have is the amount of dust inside the sp. I'm very new to wet screen protectors. How do you keep the dust off while you are preparing the screen protector wet and ready for application?

Most of what you see are dust :(
[Nexus 4 Accessories] DDeveryday:
Just applied a third one. This time it's much better. It seems like the key is to use more water.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] xdviper:
Soapy mixture with water. Apply it in the bathroom with steam, steam takes away the dust from flying around.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] RavenII:
What ^ said.... +

When you're putting the the protector on, there's a few things you must do...(this applies to ANY screen protector product, not just XG...Zagg, BSE, etc.)

1. (Unless you have a spray bottle) Dip fingers in (SLIGHTLY) soapy mixture and flick it on the area that you're applying protector to, don't be shy, water is abundant.

2. Peel back 1/4 of the white backing and flick soapy mixture on it as well.

3. Line up the protector on the surface you're protecting and apply the slightest bit of pressure, just to keep it in the general area, if you don't push down, you'll have the chance to realign it.

4. Peel the rest of the white backing as you're holding the applied part in place. The objective here is to let it fall onto the surface.

5. Take the white backing and put it on top now.

6. Use a card to squeegee the water out...

Now that last step is the part that sets you apart from the bubbly disaster, or as close to glass as possible...

You're not scraping off dried poop from marble here....you're simply moving water out from underneath a fairly soft surface. You need VERY VERY little pressure to accomplish this, but you still do need pressure...

After it's said and done, you'll have some bubbles here and there...don't smash them down with your finger to try to get them out...they'll disappear after a day or 2. Seriously, just wait.

And that's it.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunnychad:
Annoying problem, any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thin scratch on my front screen. Still have the original screen protector on but I can see a rainbow effect when on a white background. Not sure how I picked it up because so far have been real careful with it.

Will removing the Sony branded screen protector affect my warranty? What should I do now to protect my screen? Obviously it isn't scratch proof!!!

Can I buff it out?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidhd:
Before you remove it on your own, maybe you should ask on service, if they can replace it for you. Maybe they will replace it for you for free... Also they will tell you, how is with warranty, if you remove it. Otherwise, there are SO many threads regarding screen protector removing etc. And this screen protector is not for protect it against scratches, it's known about it that it is shatter proof protector!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunnychad:
But is there a scratch proof and shatter proof one. Thanks for the reply

The screen protector you are talking about is a shatter proof sheet, not a scratch resistant. Thats why some comes with a screen protector included in the box.

I removed the shatter proof "screen protectors" after getting some scratches on them, as per the instructions in the manual. Can't imagine they'd do anything to void your warranty considering it's in the manual.

Hi guys,

I am seriously in agony!

I am new to Android so I am not very well around with adb...

First thing first, I accidently wiped internal storage, my rom and everything....

now i am stuck in recovery (TWRP) and fastboot and want to know if there is anyway i can install a rom or send the rom file to my phone...

Right now my phone seems to be not recoginized by the computer.

Please where do i start? Really appreciate your help!

(hope we had an external hard drive - it wouldn't have been such a big deal..)

You are going to have to use fast boot to flash you system.IMG and boot.IMG into place. Use this guide found in the stickies above your post.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
You don't necessarily have to flash back factory stock system image. You can send the rom file directly to the internal storage of the device by using ADB or ADB sideload while in TWRP.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Never tried it, but I see it in the TWRP menu ("external storage") - put your ROM file on a USB key and attach to the N7 with an OTG cable.

The above respondent's suggestion (adb) will also work too. Paradoxically, Windows seems to be the most difficult platform to get this done, especially Windows 8.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascyndaeon:
Okay, so we have all of course seen that Synergy ROM and GalaxyMod have gotten multi-window/multi-view (is there seriously an official name for it??) working on the Galaxy S3, and on 4.1.1 no less.

This is really bugging the crap out of me (and probably a few other frustrated people). See, I want to make my own ROM from stock with all the features I want, without having to even deal with ROMs like Synergy that just don't quite fit with what I want and what works.

So I shall ask the question many may be dying to answer themselves, and why not sit down and actually discuss it rather than say "oh go here and get 'x' rom lol".

How does one get the Galaxy Note 2's Multi-window feature working on a Galaxy S3 touchwiz (or perhaps even AOSP) ROM?

Simple as that.

We all know it is possible, since it has already been done. And even on a version beneath 4.1.2!

If anyone has any clue whatsoever, please contribute to the discussion. I hope that soon this can be useful to all who would like this feature.

If anyone has any arguments to me asking the question, I haven't ever found an answer, and I've searched almost anywhere I possibly could (even here). So please don't.

Thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zelendel:
You have to code it into the rom your using. Which means ripping your rom apart down to the base code and redoing alot of the coding from scratch.

AOSP is not an option. If you dont know why then you might want to rethink doing it your self.

You will need to know Java and C++ to start with.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascyndaeon:
So basically what you're saying is that I should download the source code from Samsung and code it into the ROM? (can't think of any other way to get to the base code simply from my little ROM itself, so that's why I ask this) Never worked with actual source code yet, so I might need a few pointers. It has always seemed as though source codes for different sorts of software are handled differently. And that's true. The thing is, finding how to handle each person's/company's source, and I still have much to learn in that regard.

Call me a noob if you'd like, because I pretty much am. But even so I would like to learn. Just saying. (and before you say "oh, well then go look at the other parts of the forum if you're so helpless", I'm just throwing it out there)

Okay. I thought I saw multi-window on an AOSP ROM but I could be mistaken. Besides, I don't have to do it myself. I could probably team up with my friend who is a hardcore android phone modder like myself.

Yeah, I figured I'd need to know Java and C++ to legitimately code android itself. I'll probably be able to get it down completely one of these days. For now, I'm still learning it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
There is a mod on the sprint gs3 forums that has multiwindow. It's a flashable mod for sprint 4.1.2 rims only though. It's a lotmore work than just that though. Port Sprint ROM then add the mod. And more behind Tue scenes stuff.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
You NEED to also know that the APKs themselves also need to be multi-view compatible. This means decompiling and re-compiling each APK for your device (with the change in coding).

I'm not sure if you'd need to change the build prop to match the Note2 as well, but I think your CSC can remain the same.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascyndaeon:
Thank you. I figured this might be moreso the case, as Team Synergy apparently made their ROM by using dsixda's android kitchen. Porting methods definitely must be learnt to get this kind of thing going.

So I'm assuming you mean we should use something like apktool. The question then is what parts of each code do we change/add to make it work. Alternatively, I have seen mods that make it so just about any app will work as well.

I'm supposing I should get the stock Note 2 ROM to obtain the build.prop? I dunno, I haven't done much with build.prop's.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
This is correct. I don't have the correct answer to any of your other queries as we are actually in the same boat.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascyndaeon:
Okay. Well hopefully soon we will have the answer.

If anyone else has any info, please share it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascyndaeon:
Bump?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
You are better off learning to use Dsixda's Kitchen or wait on someone else to create a custom ROM for this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascyndaeon:
Well...I actually already know how to use the Kitchen. It's really simple to use. You just need to know how to install individual mods after you do what needs to be done in the kitchen itself. The only thing I don't fully know is how to port. He doesn't give any pointers because he doesn't actually know how to port either.

And I really don't want to wait for someone else to make a ROM with it included. We already have two, and both are still pretty buggy. Synergy is notably slow (despite CPU tweaks) and there are quite a few apps that don't even work on it (for example, the regular e-mail app). I'm determined to figure out and know how top create my own ROM, but if I can't get the info I need to progress then it'll be pretty tough.

Like I said though. I'm determined to gain the knowledge to do what I want.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
There are porting guides all over XDA and one in our very own development section. You could run a few things by the guy who made the CSROM BMB rom...and its not buggy as you said others are. It's has a Sprint base and works well with the multiview feature.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascyndaeon:
Yeah I know. I've bookmarked a couple so I can go through them when I have time. :3

Oh, wow! I just went and looked at that ROM and it looks pretty bada$$!! :D

Also wondering if Gruesomewolf's multi-window mod will work on any ROM. Not real sure what "MB1" is though...

That's so awesome though. I'm a bit surprised people like Max Lee haven't featured that yet.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Mb1 is the sprint 4.1.2 leak. The gruesomwolf mod gas the have a sprint 4.1.2 base... Maybe Verizon will work but at&t and T-Mobile haven't gotten it yet.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Bigbabyjesus:
So if you want to create a Rom with multi Window you will need framework from gs3 4.1.1 4.1.2 and note 2 4.1.2. You do not need the source from Samsung necessarily as you can pull framework-res.apk with adb, but you need a thorough knowledge of java and c++. You don't normally start off doing major reconstructive editing to roms. If you have adk set up build an app first. There are tons of tutorials in xda and all over google. Then move on to theming and whatnot.

Remeber to hit Thanks if I've been helpful.

I was just wondering if it was possible to Manually update a android 4.0.3 ROM to 4.0.4? Like if we knew the files that defines and classifies a 4.0.4 rom. I am not sure if these two android roms are built on different bases or code but all 4.0.3 apps work on 4.0.4 and vice versa.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jecmenn:
First thing is remove some heavy apps so download Titanium backup and uninstall things what you not using (something like timescape or other stock SONY useless apps). Don't touch apps that you don't know what are they doing! For best gaming performance you must overclock CPU so download No-frills CPU control (or similar) from Google store and use this settings for gaming performance:

Max: 1600 Mhz

Min: 249 Mhz

Governor: performance

I/O: deadline
