[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ixon2001:
I've only had my Nexus 4 just over a week & now noticed the Oleophobic Coating is starting to wear in the middle of the screen were it's been rubbing in my pocket. :(

Past phones i had with this coating has never had this problem upto a year after purchase.

I'm not really keen on screen protectors, but it looks like the Nexus 4 needs one just to protect the coating.

Im now considering RMA it, and the next Nexus i get stick a screen protector on right out of the box.

So has anybody else suffered this problem were the coating starting to come away?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
I have mine now for about 4 months, i use no screen protector and no wear off noticable anywhere on the screen.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harry Pothead:
AW: [Q] Oleophobic Coating doesn't last :(

Have mine since January. Still has its coating and I never use a screen protector.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] republicano:
it should last between 4-6 months, it will wear alot faster rubbing on materials or if you clean the screen often, you can buy those drops to restore a coat ontop.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Behemyth:
I was wondering, what do you guys think? I just got mine and I've left the factory cover on for now. Do you think this is a problem and I should invest in protectors, or should I just use it? Where could i purchase these drops your talking about?

-Thanks

I put them on all my phones then end up taking them off the re ordering a new set.

Extreme guard has a 75 percent off and free shipping cost 2.50 just go to their website and put 75off(not positive this the right to one check the accessories threads if that code doesn't work) In the coupon field about a week later I got it in the mail ordered just about a week ago
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
Just use a screen protector. It's fairly cheap. You can get one xtremeguard screen protector for $1 with free shipping in the U.S with promo code 80off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonapunk:
Didn't know about that code damn
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JediDru:
Dude thanks for posting I picked up one for my new nexus4 and my old GNex for the wife. Total cost $2 for just the front screen on both. Somehow she scratched the screen on her sgs1 and I cringed handing over my trusty mint GNex.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myturbo1:
Wear off in 4-6 months. That can't be right!

That's like selling a product meant to not last and just throw away

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
That isn`t right :) Had mine for 4 months now and nothing of the oleophobic layer is wearing off anywhere.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myturbo1:
I don't think I have had a phone it had ever worn off.. Heck I still have phones all the way from about 5 years ago.

If it's wearing off I would contact Google about the defect

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ixon2001:
It seems a few others have suffered the same problem as me with the coating starting to rub off in places.

I remember iphones & ipads suffered the same problem to, not sure if it still effects the iphone 5

In the past I've had GS1, HTC Sensation, GS2 & GS3 none of these ever had a problem with the coating wearing, also have a Nokia Lumia 800 & same goes for this coating still just as good as the day i bought it.

Maybe it's somekind of manufacturing fault with a few Nexus 4's, were they not applied the coating properly.... who knows.

Eitherway think next week I'm gonna return it, and the next one i get hopefully without any other problems i'm going to put a screen protector on it right out of the box.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wngmv:

Dear Forum Members...

Having Samsung Galaxy Korean Note E160L Boot-Loop Issue,

well got phone in same condition, user told me he tried to update phone via Odian with

"I717UCLF6_ATTLF6_USA_ATT_Android_4.0.4" & failed..

well i dont know, which build it was UH24,FD09 Etc..

i Have tried to update phone with all firmware named below..

still phone is in booting loop, tried with custome CM09 also, but same..

phone can go in both download & recovery..

help needed..

Tried Firmwares (with I717 pit)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] maestrobarako:
shv -e160l is different from I717.. so trying to flash firmwares from phones not for said models, is like putting a time bomb inside.. its been said sooooooo many times to never flashed firmware from other models, is that hard to mentally accept? so why not try flashing correct firmwares for exact models, with correct kernels, radios or pit for that exact device ang maybe youll find out that you were just mixing oil from water before..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crazy_kamal:
thanks for ur reply,,,,

i tried all available firmware's for E160L, but didnt found exact pit file n kernal for that...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] maestrobarako:
have you tried stock Gingerbread rom? its the best way to start with problems like yours..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crazy_kamal:
well....dude

i used riff box for that..repaired boot...n tried to update with " HOME_E160L.UH24.1821_CL966093_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5 "

now phone is alive again...

now having only issue of home button's..

only center(HOME) is working....rest Left N Right (Menu & Back) Not working...

thanks for ur reply

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] W4XY:
UPDATE: This tool has been superseded by a newer version. This new tool does not work for Radio version 1.05.12 (see below). The new tool works for 1.05.12A and later. For more information on the new tool see the new thread

==============================================

This is old information. Only use this method for 1.05.12

Despite some set-backs and not precisely the easy tool we want (yet), we didn't want to hold this back.

We are proud to present the new unlock tool for the XDA II!

One of the prerequisites for using this tool is puting the XDA II in bootloader mode.

Unfortunately this will also mean a hard reset of the device: you will loose all current data!

So the advice is: MAKE A BACK-UP FIRST! (And test that it works).

Puting the device in bootloader mode requires pressing three buttons at once:

The

Power

button, the

Action

button (also called

Navigation pad

)

and the

Reset

button in a hole at the bottom with the stylus.

When you run this tool on your PC, it will run in a DOS box and extract the unlock code from the device.

It will probably not work on Windows 98, but it does on Windows 2000 and XP.

This tool was tested with Radio version 1.06.x. It might not work on Radio version 1.10.x!

It won't unlock the device for you. You can do it through the standard interface.

When you run it, it looks like this:

XDA Developers XDA2UNLOCK tool

This program will extract the unlock code from your XDA II.
For this to be possible, a few steps are necessary:

1. The XDA II needs to be put in bootloader mode.
NOTE: THIS WILL WIPE ALL YOUR DATA SO FIRST BACK-UP!

You enter the bootloader by holding the Power button and the Action button
while pressing the stylus in the reset hole on the bottom.
In the bootloader mode, the display will be gray and say Serial at the top.

2. Next put the device in the USB cradle. The display will now say USB
and the first time Windows will detect a new device.

3. Disable USB in Active Sync in 'File -> Connection Settings'

Now the device is ready to extract the unlock code.
Type YES when you have completed the above steps and want to continue: YES

Communication port opened.
waiting for radio bootloader
reading first block...
reading second block...

Unlock code: 2040248

When you insert a blocked SIM in your XDA2,
you can enter the above code in the SIMLock box.

Alternatively, you can connect to the wireless modem
and enter the following AT command:
AT%HTCLOCK=0,2040248,1

Do not forget to enable USB in Active Sync again!

For download, go to http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/xda2unlock

may sound a stupid question, but the phone is under contract

and what if i have to send it back for repair or summit like that

is there a way to lock it back to o2 so theyre none the wiser ?

thanks

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] W4XY:
Re: great kit guys.....can i re lock the sim tho ?

Yes, you can put the XDA in Wireless Modem mode (application in Programs) and then connect to it with a terminal program like Hyperterminal. When you get feedback from the AT commands (for example ATZ) you can enter the following:

AT%HTCLOCK=1,12345678,1

Where 12345678 can be replaced by your unlock code.
