[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
It supports SafeStrap, but that's a different issue. Anyway, the I9505 will not get LTE on any US carrier due to the device not having the US LTE frequencies. The I9505 otherwise functions as expected on AT&T. HSPA is slow compared to LTE, but not a deal breaker.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flroots:
[QRCODE][/QRCODE]

Thanks. When you reference SafeStrap I assume you are referring to the I337. I've already installed SafeStrap which is OK as an interim solution, but I'd rather install TWRP as my recovery software. Do you know of any S4 variants that have a) unlocked bootloader and b) are compatible with AT&T? According to this site: http://www.phonemore.com/compare/phones/ the I9505G supports the same LTE frequencies as the I337/?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Your two options are the I9505G - good luck in finding it - and the T-Mobile M919. In the case of the T-Mobile device you have to carrier unlock it to use it on AT&T.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flroots:
Thanks. Great info. According to this reference the M919 supports only one of the three LTE frequencies of the I337. Is that true and if so, is it significant?

http://www.phonemore.com/compare/ph...vs-samsung-galaxy-s4-sgh-i337-att-32gb/340721

Also, according to the same site, the I9505G supports all three, but as you say it's tough to find one at reasonable price. Thanks again.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
That site is full of crap. The M919 supports the same exact frequencies as the I337.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flroots:
Thanks again. I appreciate the feedback. For my future reference can you refer me to a site that has accurate information?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I generally search for reviews rather than relying on a single source of information.

i opened up the board to find out, i337 and m919 are the same, they have both model numbers in one area

[LG Optimus 4X HD] kilowattz:
I have a Singapore unit 4XHD rooted. Currently, the unit is in the Philippines right now. I wanted to get the latest official jelly bean update via OTA. I already did the unroot using SuperSU. I also cleared cache partition and did a factory reset using the recovery. I still get the error message "your device is not registered yet" when hitting the "Check for Updates"

1. Does the phone need to be connected to Singapore internet in order to update?

2. Is there anything else I could do to bring back to original state?

Thanks

From SG too. SG is still @ v10c i think. So even if you get device registered, it'll tell you your s/w is up to date.

Hey man. It's not possible to get the official jellybean via OTA. You need to manually flash the official rom.

I have a Verizon Droid 3, and tried CellunlockerPro for sim unlock code, but did not work. They said the unlock code may have been change by Verizon via OTA update, and can only be unlocked by Verizon. Unfortunately, I'm not a Verizon customer... Can anyone kindly help to use your Verizon account to get the unlock code for my phone? will pay $10 for your trouble. Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Try unlock4moto.com and see what they provide. If that doesn't work, then that's your only option. That site specializes in unlocking Motorola phones.
[Motorola Droid 3] EthanLNX:
Really works

unlock4moto.com really works and they could provide me the code for a cheap price, 6 bucks

also if you got the screen on Verizon Droid asking for "activate your phone" (which would make you call verizon) there is a way to skip that

just tap the 4 corners clockwise mode of that screen starting with top left and than tap android bot in the center

this will skip the activation and actually take you to the phone main screen :laugh:

What the pros and cons of tempered glass screen protector vs a Film screen protector?

My concern about the Tempered glass is that :

--it's adhesive is only on the bezel area and since phones today have smaller bezel so it might get detached easily

--Tempered Glass might scratch the glass beneath it

--If adhesive of the Tempered glass became less sticky Dust might accumulate inside

So can you tell me your experience with tempered glass screen protector? I really want to hear from someone who used this screen protector for long time and not on these reviews on youtube since they only used it on the time they review it.

And also does anyone tried using combination of Film and T.glass protectors?
[General Accessories] fear676:
I also second this. Anyone that has this screen protector please respond.
[General Accessories] ichilouch:
I just found out that Spigen is selling a new type of tempered Glass screen protector it is "GLAS.T" it's different from the old one. This new one is all transparent and has adhesive all through-out the back part of the screen protector, unlike the old one which has paint on the borders and only adhesive on the painted area.
[General Accessories] ichilouch:
Spigen has GLAS.T for Note 1 Anyone that used the product for about 5-6 months now?
[General Accessories] Plymouthbiker:
I have a tempered glass screen protector for my Note 3 and it fits and works perfectly. It's been on my phone for 2 months now. Not a single scratch to it and no peeling or dust accumulation at all. I would recommend one any time over a plastic protector. I got mine from a company called fasttech. They are very cheap compared to UK sellers and the company is very reliable even considering that they are Chinese.
[General Accessories] vectron:
Tempered glass has an adhesive throughout the whole surface, not only the bezel/perimeter area.

The difference is very simple. If you want scratch protection, get a film screen protector, but make sure to get quality PET 3H hardness film like the one sold by iSmooth and Spigen. Cheap ebay stuff is thin, will scratch, will bubble after some time, and will have rainbow effect under the florescent light. If you want ultimate shatter protection - get tempered glass. On impact the glass will shatter without affecting your display. Spigen and Seidio makes some of the best ones. I'm personally a big fan of Seidio VITREO and been using it on my Note 2 for a very long time.

for LG g2 temperate glass or we don't have to buy anything
[General Accessories] 4ex:
I use the tempered glass for the LG G2, i think its better than a film protector.

No bubbles nothing, very clean. if you dont look at the edges u wont see there is a protector.
[General Accessories] cocconut:
i've really no bubbles, just use the type method to remove bubles cause by dust.

the cons is that film protector changes a bit the polarization of my glass so it has more strange effect on very high view angle
[General Accessories] 4ex:
Did u try a tempered glass or went straight to the film protector?

I tried 2 film protectors but i wasn't satisfied with that but the tempered glass is really fine for me.
[General Accessories] bottomup32:
Pros & cons of Tempered glass screen protector

The advantages of T. glass over films are the following.

-. Scratch - (almost)free : sellers boast it is harder than stock display, but I don't agree with. Glass screen protector also gets scratch.

-. Superb feeling : yes. its feeling is real better even stock display including any premium film. http://vimeo.com/91463403

-. Bubble -Free : Yes. it is easy to install and you don't worry about bubble.

Disadvantages

-. Price : $5~40 : I have tried $5 and 40 as well. I don't recommend both $5 and $40. you can find good one between them.

-. Thickness :0.15~0.4mm : Compared to film, it is bulky. Sometimes it won't be compatible with certain cases. (I don't recommend too thin one, since it is easy to brake before doing its protection job)
[General Accessories] SpyrosEsquivel:
i have used a glass screen protector for the last month until it broke when i dropped my phone from hip height. i am extremely satisfied by the product. as it is rigid, it is very easy to apply and in contrast with plastic film protectors, the tempered glass lets your fingers glide on the screen. i was also impressed by the fact that after 1 month's use my phone had zero scratches, even though i was kind of provoking scratches by the way i was handling the phone. never going back to plastic film, not a slight chance there.
[General Accessories] M2490311:
I've run a gauntlet recently with screen protectors and cases with my galaxy s7 edge. I can definitely tell you the pros and cons between tempered glass and soft film screen protectors.

Tempered glass pros- much sturdier, better scratch resistance, looks better. Easier to install. Longer field life. Better phone protection all around.

Tempered glass cons: some cases won't work with tempered glass unless it has a top that fully covers the glass. Dust buildup under screen protector, less sensitivity- much less. Won't work with an otterbox symmetry because the sides and front push the glass up and out but does work with the defender because the defender covers the edge of the screen. If sand or dirt gets underneath glsss, it could scratch up your screen. Very thick too.

PET film pros- better sensitivity, will work with any phone case. Sturdy enough for the most part. No issues with dust buildup under the cover. Works with any case and has better adherence. Very thin.

PET cons- they look cheap and scratch more easily than tempered glass and you can tell that the phone has a screen protector. Harder to install. The protector scratches but the phone screen doesn't. Shorter field life.

Personally, I prefer PET film screen protectors to tempered glass but to be fair, I have an edge phone and glass screen protectors with edge phones can be more finicky than flat phones. Glass looks better, but aside from drop protection and looks, they don't keep the dirt out and can be a chore with the wrong kind of cases, or simply won't work.

I think film is much more versatile and I'm willing to trade some aesthetics in favor of usability. That's my 2 cents on both types of screen protectors based on recent experience.

---------- Post added at 06:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:36 AM ----------

And liquid bubbles with soft cases go away in a few days. Air must be popped and dust must be removed physically but moisture does dry out. You can tell a moisture bubble because it has rainbow swirls if you view the phone on a screen with a white background.

Don't try to iron out small moisture bubbles or press them out. They go away on their own within a week and if you mess with them you can bend your soft screen protector out of shape or get divot lines.
[General Accessories] M2490311:
Also, if the soft screen protector has the oleophobic coating, it does work very well, in fact it's almost if not better about prints and crap on the screen than actual glass screens. Plus, tempered glass can be a problem on certain phones.

My friend has a note 5 with a tempered glass screen protector and he dropped his phone (no case) so instead of the screen shattering, the back of the phone did. Protectors work, but if you have a glass coated phone- better have a case on it.

[Oppo Find 5] WhiteSRT69:
i pay about 80 dollars a month for 450 minutes 3gb of data and unlimted text. on AT&T

thats after my company discount. not to bad IMO for being in contract.

if your on an individual account. the moment you add the unlimted text messages to your plan you get unlimited talk. so you dont need to have a big minute plan. just the basics

and sometimes you can get onto there 2gb data plan for 20 dollars.. look into it more..

its really not that expensive

Verizon for an individual plan is $90 before tax, and that only includes 1gb of data...

its a great phone for prepaid. once my contract is up. ill be making the switch to Tmobile prepaid.

they just boost the signal up in my area like crazy! its amazing now!

my P760 is on V20B rooted and OTA updates are available.

Will I loose root if I upgrade?

(No, I can't use Lelus' method, offline flashing throws errors for me)
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] OperationNT:
When I did the official upgrade from a V20B ROM rooted with Lelus method to V20C (directly on the phone, with a 9 MB patch), I kept root.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] RobbingHood:
Ok, tried it, failed. When updating, I get a warning that my device is rooted and therefore unsupported.

When I temp un-root it (Voodoo OTA Root Keeper) I just get a message "installation failed".

2. Didnt install any root accessable apps

3. Didnt remove any bloatware

4. Did the OTA update and update was successful :good:

(if u have kdz then u can flash latest kdz again n obtain root by lelus method. If u don wanna download a latest kdz ,then follw these instructions, hope it helps :cowboy:)

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] pablo+:
Not the driver problem? then what? perhaps USB port or USB cable.

Do you have LG PC suite? Can it connect with your phone via USB cable?

You can upgrade to 20C using it (it is also KDZ), of course you will loose root, but perhaps your drivers get better and then you could root via KDZ Lelus method.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] clockcycle:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benregn:
I was going to flash a new ROM on my DHD and did the usual steps: backup using TB, reboot to recovery, factory reset and then go find zip to install on SDCARD. But this time instead of finding my zips I had already transferred, I found none. So I mounted the SDCARD through the recovery menu and transferred the zip using my laptop.

I still couldn't see the zips, so I chose to reboot the phone from the recovery menu. Booted into old ROM, completed the setup wizard and rebooted to recovery again. Still no zips! So I turned the phone off and was just going to boot straight to recovery using VOL UP and POWER but then I only got three short vibrations and nothing happened, so I booted again to ROM and rebooted to recovery from there.

This time nothing happend, nothing at all. And now I'm stuck where I cant boot it, not to recovery, not to HBOOT and not to ROM. Tried taking out the battery and putting it back in. Tried turning it on using just POWER, using VOL UP and POWER, using VOL DOWN and POWER - and in different time length combinations. adb reboot bootloader cant find the phone. The LED doesn't light up when plugged to USB.

ROM: JELLYTIME for DHD/Inspire4g - 4.2.2 R4

Recovery: ClockworkMod

I'm guessing my DHD is completely bricked, right?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
Oh dear poor you, I'm no expert, but unless your battery is dead, I'd say you killed your phone. Can't even get into recovery yikes.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
If your battery is dead you may need to ask a friend to charge it for you? If your phone still boots into recovery you havent killed your phone, if you go to the htc web site & look for the correct software for your phone you may have to apply that to reboot your phone again, but after you will need to root again? But first try another rom a stable one & try doing this - factory reset/full wipe, then wipe cache, then wipe dev cache, then fash the new rom. Hope this helps
