[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tokuzumi:
I think someone used a Samsung keyboard case, made for the gs3 (official Samsung product) , and it fit like a glove, with almost no modifications.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiayit:
I hate soft keyboards, used stock, SwiftKey, GO Keyboard and Touchpal, none were to my liking. I'd take hard over soft keyboards any day.

And any cheap Bluetooth keyboards below 20 to recommend? Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] GSLEON3:
I have had numerous tablets, including many from Samsung. I used to like everything OEM, but I experienced a drop once & the $40.00 Samsung OEM book case provided little protection & the device was damaged slightly. For $40 a case should offer some protection to my device. Since then I have always used leather cases purchased on Amazon.

For the Note 8, which I recieved a day or so before release, the case picking were slim. I found the one that had the most features from previous cases I enjoyed, which included selections from Moko, Poetic (which I really like) & tons of others.

In this instance, the case that met the most of my requirements was the Evecase. The Eve case is a textured leather (PU) case that has the auto-wake/sleep feature, multiple viewing angles in both portrait & landscape (which means it rotates) & I like to be able to remove the device easily, which this case accomplishes with a removable insert, which is held in place by a snap, which I have come to like more than the velcro removable types. I paid just under $5.00 for the case, which is now $5.99 USD on Amazon & I was surprise by just how nice the case is. While I am not a fan of the textured leather, i prefer smooth leather, this case is easily worth the $20 or more you would pay for the Poetic or Moko cases.

The case has cutouts in all of the obvious places, holes in the bottom on each side where the speakers are located & you can pretty easily access the SD Card slot & S-Pen, although there is a stylus loop for those that prefer having the S-Pen a few micro-seconds closer to use. It also has an elastic strap to hold the cover securely shut, which is great for S-Pen devices as magnet tend to interfere with the S-Pen's accuracy.

I have attached numerous pics, both from Amazon & a few I took to show details not seen in the Amazon pics.

Of all the Note 8 cases I have seen so far, I would recommend the Evecase over the rest. It is an exceptional value & protects the case well.

You can find the Evecase on Amazon by following this link: Evecase on Amazon
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] BenGman:
Did you buy the book case separately or did it come in the box of your Note 8?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] easter_:
Hi, folks!

I got a strange problem with my Nexus S i9023. I have been using my Nexus for two years without any issues, using Stock ROMs via OTA.

One month ago, my power/lockscreen-button stoppedd working. First it still worked, pressing the button several times, but after a short period it refused to work, completely.

I sended in my phone to an official samsung support, claiming warranty. After a three weeks (!) my phone came back, working again. It was flashed with Android 2.3.4... Because it was a guaranteeing, there was no report on how they fixed it, just a short letter telling me, phone is now in the condition, how the manufacturer intended it.

Because period of warranty was over now, i decided to flash a custom rom to get newest Android version. I flashed Jellyshot ROM in combination with Air Kernel. For about three weeks, it worked perfectly.

But one morning, the button was completely out of order. When i remove the battery from the phone and but it back in, the phone boots up, without pressing it. As other threads suggest, this leads me to the suspicion, that the button "just hangs".

Again i sended in the phone to another technician at my own exchange. Today, this technican contacted me and told me, the button is perfectly fine. According to him, it is a software issue or a defective CPU/Power-Chip (?).

I am of the opinion, that it can not be a software issue, because it worked a few month on Stock 4.1.2 without any problems, and the failure is there with a complete new ROM and Kernel (Jellyshot + Air Kernel).

Do any of you happen to have an idea what could be wrong with my phone ?

At the moment i can not afford a new one :crying:

Greetings from germany,

Christian

Thanks in advance ;)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] hutjeflut:
it looks nice indeed but sadly this causes the screen to be always on after recieving a message and with our phone having a screen on time of max 5.5 hours you dont really want this kind of behaviour.

say you get a message late at night before your going to bed and you just charged your phone your gonna wake up to a dead phone as overnight the battery will be drained empty.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
The app have battery saving option. We can set the time for it to be off.

The worst is that I activate but, nothing happend... Once that I have a lot of

stuff frozen/uninstalled, I though the problem might be because of that.

That's why I ask if someone else can try it and report if it works, to see if

the issue is from the app or from my settings.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] puppetmaster22:
Working for me ;)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
Need to see what's wrong with mine...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] axepted:
Works for me too. I use the batterysaver option at night for not draining my battery.. :)

Sent from my LG-P880
[LG Optimus 4X HD] brunek:
It doesnt work for me too...:( What could be the problem?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
In applications we need to activate "messages", "Facebook", or other...

I miss that part... :o
[LG Optimus 4X HD] brunek:
I dont understand..What do you mean activate and where exactly? I dont have facebook..
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
Open Knock²+ app, go to the tab "APPLICATIONS", you'll see several apps and in front of the app icon you need to activate.

If you don't have Facebook it won't appear there, only apps that you have installed, and messages you have :D
[LG Optimus 4X HD] brunek:
All of my app are activated. I tryed it out by sending an e-mail but it doesnt work..:banghead:

Edit:all of my apps where deactivated! I am an idiot!:)

It works great!

Is the battery drain significant?

poslano s ubojitog LG 4X HD
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
Don't worry, I was an idiot too... :o

I don't notice a big drain but, also didn't had a lot of "messages".

During the night (or other period) you select it to be OFF.

Explore the settings :good:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] brunek:
Yes i saw it has a lot of options. It can be off during the night,its off in your pocket and you can set the after what period it turns off!:good: Great app!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
for me, the only problem is that the flash isn't used, even when i set it to double or single. it simply doesnt fire up ^^
[LG Optimus 4X HD] guilherme.sa:
looks nice, but how about battery?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
Depends on the user, settings and of course if you receive 20 or 200 messages a day :) don't drain more than a normal app.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] axepted:
For me it use 15-20% overnight, when sleep mode is on. And from 37 to 15% in 6 hours is too much, turned off..

Sent from my LG-P880
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Tedeusz:
I just installed it yesterday, so far work OK. During the night I use "Sleep mode" and battery drain as usually, but I will check today how it's work during day time.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] joulukas:
Really like the setup of the app and giving it also a try. Only thing that have noticed is tht phonecalls are shown only when another notification has come up. Will see if theres a way to controll it fro msettings.

Battery is still normal for me, lets see what longer usage period is showing.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] snekler:
the same for me ,it only start working when sms notification comes,after that calls notification works fine,led down t work ,and poked mode down t work ,it down t give a dam is the phone in your pocked or not :D,im on stock JB ,rooted ,BL unlocked .
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Apotacyll:
no flash light

it works perfectly but the flash light doesn't work anybody got any ideas?:confused:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Monskiller:
The application works for me, beside one very annoying issue. If I activate it from Accessibility, for some odd reason it does a wierd thing with my keyboard that says whatever letter I tap on it. Is there anyway to deactivate that?

Edit: Kinda like TalkBack but JUST on the keyboard and nothing else. I tried to compleatly remove TalkBack and no change.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ruzin.aleksandar:
Works for me too, but without the LED flash :(
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Apotacyll:
Under talk back is knock 2 you have to enable that and talk back disabled
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Monskiller:
Talk Back IS disabeld. In fact I removed it compleatly from the system apps. Talk Back speaks every single text on your display. But if I activate Knock2 it speaks the keypad typing, which is really irritating.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Apotacyll:
Mmm weird knock² should not do that.

maybe you got a difrent keyboard
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Monskiller:
Nope. LG JB Stock keyboard.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andrew259:
Sorry my bad english, i'm brazilian.

I have a Xperia S ICS .45 with root. I know that the update to jelly bean is coming. So, my question is: its possible to upgrade to jelly bean with root?? i will have some trouble with that ?

Ps: Bootloader Locked.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
You probably will lose root, yes. But if Binary's method doesn't work straight away, a new method will come in no time.

(Você provalvemente perderá o root. Mas se o método do Binary não funcionar de uma vez, ou outro vai vir logo logo.)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andrew259:
I read things about the phone brick when upgrade with root, this applies to xperia S ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
I guess no...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
You must have read that with an unlocked boot loader if OTA updates are accepted then you will brick your device.;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
He doesn't say it is root with unlocked bootloader, just root.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Yes bro I know that. I was simply trying to clear his confusion with all the terms of the world of android.:D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Oh ok sorry.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
No problem at all.:)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andrew259:
So, the only problem is that i will lose the root ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RHBH:
Nice! I'm Brazilian Also.

Are You using .45 ROM Rooted? Use flashtool and burn a generic ROM (.45, .50 or .55) then use SUS to repair the phone to the last offical ROM for your SI w/o any modifications (unrooted), there is no chance of anything going wrong.

My SI [Brazil - South America] (You can see on the back): 1257-2780

But as Felimenta97 said, You'll update without problems and just lose root, just like me (.55 FW with root).

_____________

Legal! Também sou Brasileiro.

Você tem a ROM .45 e está com superusuário certo? Use o flashtool e grave uma ROM genérica (.45, .50 ou .55), então use o SUS para reparar o telefone para a última ROM oficial do teu SI sem nenhuma modificação (sem permissão de superusuário), sem chance de dar algo errado.

Meu SI [Brasil - South America] (você pode ver na bateria): 1257-2780

Mas como o Felimenta97 disse, você provavelmente atualizará sem problemas e só perderá o root, assim como eu (.55 FW com root).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Nope, sorry. I'm on XZX v2 ROM, heavily customized.

And my S was imported, so I never had a Brazilian fw on my phone.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RHBH:
I was talking about the topic's creator : P
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Oh, haha. Sorry.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andrew259:
But flashtool isn't for bootloader unlocked devices ? Mine is locked, can i just update directly when jelly bean comes out ? I dont want a bricked device, this is why i do all this questions, sorry for this ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Flashtool does exacly the same thing as SUS. Flash the ROM.

The thing is that, you only need unlocked bootloader to flash any ftf with a signature that not from Sony, which is unique. The oficial ftfs have theirs so, you can use it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MStef94:
I've just installed a new update through Sony PC COmpanion (6.2.B.0.200). Is there any method to get root and unlocked bootloader on this?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Pruikki:
if you are Rooted on 45. or else ICS

After JB Update there is no way to root.

Bin4ry is working on it soon, just wait a month.

if rooted, better update with SUS or SonyPCcompanion

and if unlocked Boot loader, the OTA upodate will brick,

if locked then safe to do it via OTA

i recommend SUS or Sony pc companion
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Deleted member 5133333:
Hello [MENTION=5234128]andrew259[/MENTION],

After flashing the new JB for Xperia S,

You will lose the root. Yes!

But it wont take much time for our devs to find out a new way to root it back.

Hope this information helps.

Hi guys,

I want to revert back to original stock rom, but I couldn't find any download link for GB version stock rom. All the links I did find are invalid now.

The one under the CPU tab clearly says, "during boot time only." So, what do you think?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentg1001:
Lol, so you mad? Anyways it actually works, I asked because when I had my s2 undervolting showed as -100 but didn't actually work according to the developer and it was still a work in progress. Then when I tried undervolting on an actually working undervlt kernel to -100, it did a boot loop, just wanted to confirm if it actually works is all. I'm new to i9300 development , I'm coming from t989 development. I found out it works because after heavy gaming , -100 gave me a random reboot , going back to -75. Thanks for your....help? Haha

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltimHero:
Hello everyone , Im already a proud owner of the Galaxy SII however considering the issues with Samsung not releasing kernel sources for this devices and its bad support would you prefer an S2 over a galaxy nexus or the opposite ? And does the nexus have major problems/drawb acks ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] te0o:
Well, that's an easy choice - Nexus, of course! They're on par on the hardware side with the Nexus having the advantage of a bigger display with a higher resolution. In terms of software Nexus is miles ahead... well, it's Nexus.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Par on hardware?

Hell no.

Nexus might get KLP android update because of it's graphics but is not gonna be a good performer on that plataform, as it wasn't on ICS and JB compared to the S II.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltimHero:
Agreed , the cpu + gpu on the s2 is significantly better than the nexus !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
If I had the choice I would go for the Nexus. It's a bit more "future prove" due to the updates from Google, but I expect to see at least Android 5.x on the SGS2, too. Not officially, but someone will bring it to us. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Grift-:
Yes SII has better hardware but this WVGA screen and Sammy not releasing proper source code makes things real hard for devs. However the Gnex camera is a bit of a let down :p
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltimHero:
Hopefully we can have an official cm rom even though codeworx stated that he won't . :thumbup:

Yeah the camera and speaker on the nexus are sh*t!

The resolution on the s2 is realy annoying I can't go lower than 200 dpi without seeing anoying pixels !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sergeileduc:
Official support for Galaxy nexus is over I think.

So stay with your gs2, and update with Cyanogen or AOSP, AOKP roms...

Just an idea I have but what do you guys think about a galaxy series head unit for your vehicle? I was thinking about back in the day when we had detachable face head units for security..... What if we could have let's say a detachable galaxy note 2! Upon entering your vehicle you just attach your phone to the head unit in landscape and voila it interfaces with your car speakers, rear view camera, external screens or whatever else they attach to head units now a days! Of course you would have full access to the screen and all its apps as usual. And when you exit you take your phone with you as usual. Its was just an idea I had and was wondering what others think about it?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] jp:
Hi

Which is better and why: the expansys or seido car mounts ?

There have been some discussions on the pros and cons of the expansys; besides the fact that pda audio isn't pushed through the car speakers, it seems to work well. Anybody with feedback on the seido G2500 ?

Also, where is the most convenient place to install the mount - in the centre of the dash somewhere or, for UK drivers, to the right of the steering wheel ?

Cheers

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] ednap:
Does anyone have the Seidio unit yet? According to their website still to be released.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] jp:
sorry, missed that it is 'available soon'.

It does look sleeker than the expansys one though.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] fudgebottom:
I'm waiting for the Seido G2500 to be released, I have not seen the other one but would really like to see any others, but so far the Seido G2500 has been the best on features and price... I'm planning on getting a bluetooth GPS as well and the Seido G2500 has an output to charge your GPS as well so its a great solution for me...

Any other sujestions?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] ednap:
I will probably get the seidio when it is released but the Expansys unit does appear to have an external antenna connection to mate with the connector on the XDA II, that could be useful.

As far as the BT charge facility on the Seidio G2500 I like that too but the Navman GPS 4400 unit I was planning to get isn't listed on the Seidio list of available BT charger options.

One other thing, I use the Seidio iSound wireless FM transmitter with my XDA II as an MP3 player in my car. It enables the sound to be broadcast through the car stero system. Works really well. The people at Seidio tell me that an adapter will be required for the iSound to work with the Seidio G2500 but that adapter has not been developed yet.

Hello XDA community.

I really am very frustrated and in need of you help.

TO make story short - i bought this phone and don't know what it is (version) how i can use it (as a cell phone) besides the internet

Samsung Galaxy Note 2: GT-N7100 - What type is this? I think it does not belong to any US carrier (AT&T, T-mobile preferred)

The most important question is if I can use it with T-mobile network?

I tried to follow the unlocking method posted on this forum *#972....#, but no menu showed up.

Please help me - I need all the information i can get.

Thank you
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keenan316:
The GT-N7100 is the international version of the Galaxy Note 2..

What problems (in detail) are you experiencing?

I'm using mine on the UK t-mobile network
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iCurmudgeon:
As the previous poster said, what you have is the international version of the Galaxy Note 2. That being the case it is not locked to any particular carrier. All it needs is a SIM card to make it work as a phone. Yes, it will work with T-Mobile (I have the same phone and I use it on T-Mob) although you could use it on AT&T if you wish.

Depending on what part of the country you're in, you may or may not get consistent 3G or HSPA performance with T-Mob because of slight frequency differences with your phone's radios. I get HSPA+ performance where I live, but if I drive a mile or so east, I only get EDGE speeds.Drive a few more miles, and I'm in HSPA+ territory again. Go figure.

Don't overworry about it. You have a great smartphone, and eventually T-Mobile's network will catch up with it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrey84:
Please more help

Thank you guys/Gal...

I am a little better now, but still very very confused.

Now that i know it is international version and will still work with t-mobile 4g - But VERY SLOW - I don't mind since I only use Wifi at home and work.

What i worry now is I put in my T-mobile sim card, and there still nothing showing up. The network does not work.

Any help please.

Don't know if it help, when i bought this phone it already has Super User -that mean they might have Rooted it.

First of all, thank you all so much for your help.

here are things

1) i bought this from a guy second hand.

2) these are info in the device (about phone), Model GT-N7100, Android Version: 4.1.1, Baseband version: MAUI.11AMD.W12.22.SP.V7.P3, 2012/12/27 1.22; Kernel version 3.0.13 1217 v5 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jan 9 2013; Builder Number ALPS.Mod_by_vacation team; Custom build version 1356496656

3) I think this phone was Rooted because i see the Super User logo in it. Also i believe it was installed with Custom Rom due to the information in the about section

4) i decided to Unroot the phone and still Stock rom. However, to do this I need to put it in Download mode (Volume Down + Home + Power), but was not successful and the Image 1 appear (green android with red triangle and black exclamation), if i press home buttom, then the recovery list appear (image 2), but nothing work not matter what i press. THe only way is to wait for it to go off on its own, or to remove battery and restart

5) output *#1234# does not do anything. nor *#197..640# does not do anything either.

6) I tried ATT and it works like chams, but No T-mobile sim work.

Please help
