This is the case I ordered on Amazon a week ago for my Galaxy S4. I got my Galaxy S4 at 2pm today (almost 12 hours ago) have been using this case on it all day and don't have anything like what is happening in those pictures, my phone is fine. The undersides of the case (that touch that silver rim) do seem pretty sharp, maybe this could happen if the phone is face down in the case with pressure on it? idk...

Kinda scared to continue using this case now but don't wanna go caseless! :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] darrendm:
Keep us up to date if you can, by maybe posting back here tomorrow. Cheers mate.

Curious to get your thoughts on the Diztronic
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] AndroidFanNetwork:
Honestly, I don't see how the Bounce could be scratching the phone. I felt the material under the lip, and it doesn't feel sharp or rough to me.

Anyway, SPIGEN is updating their Bounce case, so hold off on buying it for the moment.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jonsoini:
This is exactly it. The lip of this case is very sharp on mine as well, combine that with poor fit and movement in your pocket and you get a sanded S4. The lip barely comes around the front of the device, the sharp part would be in constant contact with the painted plastic rim of the phone.

Since I took the case off the paint has not continued to degrade over the past two days - nothing else has changed otherwise, same pockets/backpacks and activities and no worse for the wear.

I contacted Spigen's customer support and they're worthless, blamed Samsung for it.

Not saying this will happen to everyone, or possibly even anyone else, but the case I got w/ its poor fit and my device were bad luck. Hope no one else loses their paint!

Also, never touching a Spigen case ever again.

---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 PM ----------

Also, I notice on Amazon that Spigen has imported all the product reviews from the SGS2 version of this case to inflate their rating back to 4 stars. The latest three reviews from the SGS4 version of the case appear to be astroturf'd as well, the reviewers have only reviewed 2-3 Spigen cases each.

Stay classy Spigen...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] :
Wow...just looked at their 4 recent reviews and the reviewers recents... What a garbage scheme. Highly considering cancelling my Neo Hybrid order as a result of this. What a b-league move.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] play2lose:
Update: Had the phone since Thursday, been using this case since then and even taking the case on and off multiple times to show friends how thin the S4 is, and I have absolutely no wear on my phone. Looks brand new still thankfully!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] darrendm:
Thanks mate, will be getting mine sometime next week and do hope to use the Bounce case with it!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] phositadc:
What does the update include? A tighter fit? Know when it will be available?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lovehoshi:
I bought this case and returned it.

It felt nice but was way too loose and floppy.

I returned it and instead ordered this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BLQIIWY/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Way better in my opinion - tight and snug :victory:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] :
Anyone looking for TPU, check out the diztronic. Fits is awesome and exudes high quality.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] AndroidFanNetwork:
The updated version will have a tighter fit. SPIGEN didn't tell me exactly when though. I'll let you guys know as soon as they tell me.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] darrendm:
SPIGEN's official UK ebay store messaged to tell me there won't be any revised version. :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] AndroidFanNetwork:
SPIGEN's US representative told me otherwise.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] darrendm:
This case is absolutely horrid. I'm using a case I got for £1.70 (including a screen protector), it's amazing and the fit/texture/look is perfect.

Steer clear from this case until the revision is available. (Although even with the "tighter fit" revision, the texture is still very slippery, glossy looks horrible and the lip protecting the screen is nonexistent.)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] w4schakl:
got the bounce yesterday. It's really too loose. You can push the phone out of the case with one hand. Absolutely useless. Dont buy it!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] AndroidFanNetwork:
Hopefully, SPIGEN will send everyone who purchased this version an updated version for free.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Swiperaja:
So, I have this version and I dont like it. What is a difference in Bounce and Ultra capsule version?

[HTC Desire X] manoj.p0489:
got struck up with boot logo and not getting inside, I tried to install new rom and it got struck up, I have rooted my mobile and have recovery mode, when i try to restore my backup it shows checksum md5 mismatch, and cant able to fix the problem,

Can anyone help.....?

Thanks in advance
[HTC Desire X] neXus PRIME:
hi

There is a guide around for you in the Q&A/General Section.

You should be careful when rooting phone and flashing stuff. The acts u mention above, i think you ca recover very easily. Just read the guides and follow these steps.

1. Flash a proper recovery for ICS or JB (whichever stock rom u had).

2. Download a proper ROM, ICS or JB (whichever you want to)

3. Flash the zip thorugh recovery and wait for it to complete.

4. Turn off the phone,

5. Boot to fastboot mode and flash the boot.img files (which is the kernel and it is different for each rom)

Actually i think flashing the correct boot.img will solve ur issue but you better follow the steps i mentioned above.

Regards

Yasir
[HTC Desire X] manoj.p0489:
Hi Yasir,

First of all thanks for your reply, I have tried to download ROM.img for my cid :htc_038 and flash through recovery mode but it says installation aborted.
[HTC Desire X] neXus PRIME:
No No No No No NO.

Rom.zip , and i repeat "*.zip" are meant to be flashed via recovery.

for boot.img, and i repeat "*.img" files are meant to be flash via FASTBOOT mode. You need proper exe file on a pc for that. "fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img"
[HTC Desire X] manoj.p0489:
sorry.... its Rom.zip only..... but i get the same error...
[HTC Desire X] neXus PRIME:
Then use another recovery.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Andy_Kendall:
I've just tried to upgrade my 2 day old XDA II to 1.60.50 and all I have on the grey, non-backlit screen is "USB v1.01". Please can anyone help?

Desperately yours,

Andy
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Zone-MR:
Can you attempt the upload again and see if it helps, or does it no longer connect?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Andy_Kendall:
Well.... after rebooting the PC twice, leaving the battery out of the XDA for 20 minutes, and repeatedly (about 10 times) trying to perform the upgrade, it eventually did it perfectly in one pass. It took about 1.5 hours, and the XDA is now working fine. Even the ActiveSync files restored.

THANKYOU FOR THE PROMPT REPLY-I REALLY WAS SWEATING THERE FOR A WHILE!!! :oops:

It's a relief to know that there are people out there who will help. I won't be so keen to try this sort of thing again though. What would you recommend I do/purchase to provide a safety net in case it happens terminally again?

Many thanks again,

Andy
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] chaosrde:
I just got my one today, I was all excited to set the phone up and get all of my apps and things on it. I finally got it home, and went to connect it to my router, only to find out it's apparently incompatable with my WEP encryption? is there any way around this?

Every time I attempt to connect via WPS, it gives me an error saying WEP is not supported.

Edit: It seems to be a WPS related problem, I entered the password manually and it worked fine.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] c5satellite2:
You need to get off wep asap! Might as well be open. Wep is very insecure. Can crack it in just a few minutes. Wpa2 is what you need to be on.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nattoleon:
wep is not secure, i suggest you use wpa2 encryption as above

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] budroux:
I'll have to second this Woot! This phone is pretty sweet for sure...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] felacio:
I have to echo those 2 previous woots. in really digging this phone. Coming from an Evo3D is a huge jump. While in not seeing a HUGE difference in performance (I do notice that there is one, though) I'm blown away by the size, weight, build, screen, the Sense TV app.. Etc,etc,etc

also, battery life compared to the evo3D is a nice bump! I was worried!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jagjr86:
I am upgrading from my Evo3D and I will certainly say performance, battery, and weight are all 1000 times better than this POS device. Can't believe I've had it for two years now.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sofla2:
I watched a movie on HBO GO last night. Video is awesome and still cant believe phone speakers can sound that good :D
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sailio:
It's freaking amazing! I can't put it down haha.. debating on waiting to root it. I want the bloat gone but it like doesn't matter at the same time. Anyways... This phone is highly recommended :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] budroux:
As stated above, I too am coming from the Evo 3D and I would say it is somewhere around twice more betters...LOL!!! :p
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sailio:
I am eager to try a port from ubuntu touch. Sticking with sense as my daily driver.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tuscolavol:
Well... coming from the original EVO (almost 3 years). It will always have a place in my heart but so far, I'm really digging it. I'll root at some point but right now my only issue is the bloat. Screen, sound and camera is off the chart! And those posts about buzzing and popping sounds from the speaker, not an issue for me. No gaps around the edges either.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] devilp:
Pros and Cons of Cyanogenmod for Tipo

Cyanogenmod is the most popular Rom out there. It does not support Tipo officially but an unofficial build for Tipo is maintained by FreeXperia project. While Cyanogenmod is the most stable Rom available, it is not fully polished.

As far as tipo users, I believe they would flash CM10(jelly bean) on their tipo.

So lets take a look at some pros:

Very stable for daily use

Jelly bean on tipo

Faster interface

Low memory consuption

Highly customizable Rom

Inbuilt CPU control

Inbuilt equalizer

Vanilla jelly bean experience

Better battery life

These are some of the few pros.

Now lets come to the cons:

No facebook integration

No timescape

No google apps by default

Screen freezes at sometime

Some apps may not run well in custom rom

Your warranty is void

You wont receive updates from sony any more.

These are a few cons.

There may be more, if you find more plz tell me
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] devilp:
<reserved for additions>
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] xrhstospro:
i dont understand that...if i return back to stock ics i wont receive updates anymore or while i am to cyanogenmod?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] tusharkulkarni008:
You will recive updates from sony but you have to relock your bootloader
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] xrhstospro:
aaa ok ok...i understand
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] oSandmaNo:
No timescape isnt a con :D
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Option58:
Great thread dude!

Just please remove this:

No google apps by default... WTF? When you flash CM you download 20MB file and flash it with it.

You wont receive updates from sony any more. - ??? WTFx2 - You will receive updates from FXP Team now and not from Sony. And that's better because we will surely see even newer androids in future (maybe even by someone elses team).

Hope I helped not to confuse our users :\
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] harigavara:
Why official cm isnt supported on tipo?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Option58:
Do you know who made official Cyanogenmod for Xperia phones (Arc,Neo)? FreeXperiaTeam :)

Maybe they will post that to official once they finish but you should not care about that. :D

Freexperia is sort of official...
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Dragoboss:
The official Cyanogenmod Github already addopted the FXP project for this phone. So practically it is part of the official project, yet not listed on the official site.

For everyone who wonders about this:

Be patient. It's still under heavy development ;)

I agree with what Option58 said here above me :good::good:

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exekias:
Is this possible? I like the walkman app but it kills me to hear that 1.2 second gap betweens songs, especially on albums that are meant to play without gaps. The reason why I wont use another music app is because they dont work well with the lock screen and I like the Walkman app

Would it be something that I could alter code for? Any suggestions would be grand
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djselbeck:
Not possible at the moment. Sony needs to update it to the new api.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exekias:
Oh well knowing Sony that will never happen
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sticky F:
U know this vexes me also and really does affect listening enjoyment of albums or mixes that are ment to be seamless. You would of thought with this in mind and one of the main emphasis of the Z being the Walkman it's a feature that shouldn't of got overlooked

How do we get Sonys attention that seamless playback should be a basic feature that should appear in a later update?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mobe1969:
I s just ridiculous. Sony Walkman not handling gapless. I mean what a joke. I mean I've had physical walkmans and discmans since the 80's and gapless was just part and parcel of media based playback. I mean imagine if you bought a CD player and it didn't support gapless. Inconceivable. But in the mp3 world it is just such an oversight by idiot developers living in a frigging world of shuffle mentality. I listen to albums. I listen to concerts. Lack of gapless makes them utter worthless junk. And I gan't even believe standard android didn't even handle it until 4.1. 4.1! I mean what are they thinking that gapless isn't a tier one requirement for a bloody music player? It isn't a refinement feature, or nice to have.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkKrypt:
Android had gapless before but updated the system and we lost it ugh
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mobe1969:
Yeah? Which update. Google play music, latest update from my listening is fine on 434. But Sony Walkman, no. Or are you saying that Walkman was fine gapless wise on 350?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkKrypt:
I think it was android froyo on x10 and x10 mini - had both

Just the regular music player as walkman wasn't around then

Anyone else having an issue with the XDA forums not loading entirely? I'm getting a scattered load, as if there's images or something being blocked by my ISP. I'm not 100% certain, but I've confirmed here at home (CenturyLink) and at work (CenturyLink also), both my work laptop and my home gaming PC are having the same problem. I've tried browsers other than chrome which I use normally, cleared all cache, etc. Then I tried running a web proxy like zendproxy to load the site to see if it happened through different network routes, and I was able to load the forums just fine... I'm wondering if some IP or DNS block was blacklisted by CenturyLink, or if there's a bad route/hop, or who knows what else. Anyone else? Any ideas?

For what it's worth, I'm tech savvy (Career in I.T. as Systems Admin\Networking)

does anyone have or know where to find a program which would enable me to open powerpoint files on my xda II
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] ajfoster:
In addition to above comment

i have tried the clearvue ppt but for some reason will not open any of the powerpoint files i transfer from the pc to the xda II.

Any response would be appreciated
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] ajfoster:
From above

i have downloaded a trial version of pocketslide show 1.30 which works great but it only lasts a month then its 20 bucks does anyone have this program and there willing to share or does anyone know of a freeware version
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] ednap:
AjFoster I have used the pre installed clearview application on my XDA II with powerpoint files and it works well. I have the additional BackPack accessory so that I can do PowerPoint presentations using my XDA II connected to a LCD projector. That works great too.

Before I bought my XDA II I wasn iPAQ user and bought pocket slides for that platform. I can still use PocketSlides on the XDA II if I want full Powerpoint functions (create and edit as well as view) but in my case the clerview application is pretty much all I need at the moment.

What version PowerPoint files are you trying to open?

Is clearview compatible with all versions of powerpoint?

Ed
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] ajfoster:
Thanks ed for the prompt reply. I am using powerpoint 2000 which according to the guidelines is compatible with clearvue. When i drag and drop the files from desktop to xda II they are converted fine but for somereason my clearvue just does not pick them up.

Any other suggestions?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Xant:
Try to make a simple slideset with no animations, no bigger embedded pictures or some other fancy stuff

This will just test the compatibility...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] shanec:
You will have to go the the ActiveSync and uncheck the convert file area. For Powerpoint files you do not convert the file. I had the same problem until i readd it somewhere now it works like a charm.

Cheers

Thanks shanec i unchecked the conversion box and now clearvue works a treat. Shame that simple bit of advise wasnt available in help

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXxG0dzRAgexXx:
I used the HTC Sync Manager to get all my music on my phone. But I can't seem to find them on here. Does it do some ridiculous thing like iOS does and makes it all this one file and its inaccessible?

I want to edit some things on the file like naming and what not but can't find the files to edit/replace.

The Sense music app is very nice but it also cuts off the names of a few bands. Like a band named Dream on, Dreamer is now just "Dream on" but if i play one of the songs from an album, the info at the top does show the correct name. Makes it sort of irritating. Does anyone know how to fix that also?

I think the app is just a mess. It downloads album artwork that should already be there because it is in itunes, and it cant even get the right image. :/ Any way to fix that also?

I feel like its just better to through all my files in to sdcard/music and call it a day. Especially if I can't get the Sense 5 music app to behave like it should. Shame to have to stop using the most elegant music app ive ever seen if I can't get this stuff fixed.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Napoleon_PhoneApart:
Are you talking about the individual tracks? If so, what on earth gave you the idea that iOS has all the tracks stored in one file? iOS doesn't use the actual track titles, but stores them individually in a multitude of folders.

Anyway, on my One, I found the music tracks in Device>Explorer>My Library>Music. Are you rooted?

And greetings from Upper Marlboro. :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXxG0dzRAgexXx:
iOS does store them as one file. Being apart of the jailbreaking community I know how it works sort of. Which is why it was so hard for us to get music in to the music app on iOS took a long time but we got it. You may be right though on that its not just one file but more. They aren't useable files though, but im pretty sure its just one file. It's not like that on your computer of course. I have all those files which im debating if i should just throw them in the music folder.

No im not rooted. Never rooted before since this is my first android phone and im scared to death. :x 3 years of jailbreaking means nothing when rooting. Gotta keep this device for 2 years or I'll be going back to an iPhone 4. I plan on rooting it but not for the next few weeks.

I've been a jailbreaker since the first one came out and know the iOS file system well. Maybe we're discussing separate things, but:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXxG0dzRAgexXx:
Wow. o_o just saw it for my self. I guess when i read the one article before gremlin came out i mistook it for saying the audio files were bundled in to one large file that only the music app was able to process. That was a long time ago. Wonder why it was so immensely hard for developers to get music in to the app. Must be other hoops they have to jump through. Also all my MP3 files are renamed with 4 random capital letters so its not perfectly untouched.

Also I found where the music is located. Surprised I hadn't looked here yet. its at SD Card/Mobile/Music/C/Users/*Username*/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music

Seems like it just takes location of music which would be C/User and so forth and puts that in to Mobile/Music. Sorta of dumb but thats whatever. DIdn't find anyway to fix my issues though. Guess I'll switch to NexMusic or NowPlaying for music. Gonna miss the UI of the Sense music app though. :/
