Poetic became a popular case manufacturer after it released its line of cases for the Google Nexus 4. With the release of the HTC One, Poetic has come back with several new cases. Today, we reviewed their bumper case, the Poetic Borderline. Although we felt it was a bit flimsy, as far as bumper cases go, it was simply average. While the materials were of fairly good quality, the case doesn't adequately protect the back of the HTC One. Don't let the fact that the power button is covered turn you away from this case. Poetic will be sending out an updated version for free to everyone who purchased this version. Even though it is only $9.95 on Amazon, we can't recommend this bumper to anyone who is looking for a case that protects the back of their phone. Otherwise, it is a decent, low cost bumper case.
[One (M7) Accessories] phositadc:
This case+a back skin would at least protect the back from scratches and give s little drop protection, yes? Would the bumper cause back skins to push up around the edges? How much width does it add to the phone? More or less than a TPU case?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337
[One (M7) Accessories] AndroidFanNetwork:
Yes, as I mentioned in the review, if you install a skin on the back, it will be protected from scratches. As long as the skins are seated proper, this case won't push them up. I attached a picture comparing it to the Diztronic TPU case.
[One (M7) Accessories] yavihah:
had my bad experience with nexus 4 bumper, started to peel off the rubber from the plastic. This will be the same thing again, I even bought 3 because I thought I got a defective item, If I buy a bumper for my htc one, it wont be from poetic.
[One (M7) Accessories] AndroidFanNetwork:
Poetic claims they updated the build, but only time will tell. I'm not sure if the warranty is valid in PR, but in the US they'll send you a new bumper for free.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] neincraft:
I bought a flip cover, but it doesn't go all the way, and doesn't completely close. I removed it, and installed it again but that didn't solve it. Is it meant to be like this? I thought that it was supposed to snap magnetically and fully cover the screen :(

I have also installed a zagg screen protector installed, but I don't think that that should cause a problem like this. Is this a case of faulty design, or misinformed consumer? Pic included below.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lostaggie:
I had the regular one and was not impressed. Did about the same...

Too much money for such a poor performer...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] adizz131:
Yeah same issue here.

I am hoping the OtterBox for the S4 is going to be out within 2 weeks. If so, I'll return the S view cover for a refund and get the otterbox
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] danny39:
The S-View cover DOES NOT magnetically close. Nor does the regular flip cover.

This is by design.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] AFAngryWarrior:
I didn't expect it to be magnetic, but if I lay my S4 down on a flat surface the cover should go down all the way. Mine stays open about 1/2" and doesn't fully close unless I hold it closed...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] neincraft:
Wow, this case was like 60 bucks. This is just horrible design, which is a shame because I was looking forward to it. Back to ATT this cover goes -_-. Now to look for another case.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Hampa_D:
glad i opted ut of the original and bought a knock off from aliexpress for 8 bucks
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] copualt3:
It s just new, set it facing down for a little bit for it to set in.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] danny39:
Yeah I feel it should be magnetic, its 70 bucks for ****'s sake. But like the post above me said, it might just need to break in or be set face down for a while
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] primo523:
$70?? You got taken. Just bought mine from best buy $59
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jmoak:
Tax? Either way $59 doesn't sound any better for a case that doesn't stay shut on it's own, I wouldn't even pay $39.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] danny39:
I didnt buy one, I thought that's what the price was though. My bad.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ashmorel:
I think you both got taken as I bought my s-view cover from a Smartone (mobile network operator) store here in Hong Kong for USD$29 yesterday. God knows why it's so expensive in the UK and US!!! It's a nice cover but definitely not worth $60
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mjs2011:
Yeah and there are $8 knock offs on Amazon already.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eyecon82:
over a few weeks, it will loosen up and sit much tighter on the screen......but it still wont stay shut in the even of a fall...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Gibbs:
I ordered this case from Amazon, but it must be coming on the slow train, because it's taking forever to arrive. I like that it has the s view option, but still protects the phone better than the official case. Hopefully it won't be a piece of junk.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] samjpullen:
Mine closes flat and did as soon as I installed it, but others I know at the same event would not stay shut.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] optimummind:
I tried this out on my phone yesterday at Best Buy and I didn't like it at all. The fitment felt off for me. It was kinda nifty, though.

Mine was 5 bucks but for a note!

CLOSES TOO!

LMBO!

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] soritong:
Mine doesn't sit flat either. I'm gonna keep it a few days on it's face to see if it loosens up a bit. I only paid $20 for the official one so even if I don't like it it's not a huge loss.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eyecon82:
how did you get it for so cheap?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] soritong:
Employee pricing.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eyecon82:
through a sero plan, or you are an actual employee?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] soritong:

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] digiblogger:
First... I don´t understand, why you have to pay so much for it.. boght my at amazon.. samsung price: 50 Euro, Amazon: 29,87 Euro...

Regarding the problem.. give it a chance.. I had the same problem, now: Day 3, the cover fits perfect ;) be patient
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] TBayTom:
It took a couple of days for it to break in, give it time.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] soritong:
I can confirm that after leaving it on it's face all last night, this morning I can flap it open and closed with no issues
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kladd:
If these are anything like the Note 2 cases (which I assume they are) certain colors are made of different materials. The white case was more of a cloth and closed easily every time. The grey case was a more resilient plastic that was less keen on closing and required quite a lot of breaking in.

On a somewhat unrelated note, does the S-view flip cover wake/sleep the device when open and closed? This is my only reservation about flip covers in general. Sorry if this bit is off topic.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mjs2011:
Thanks for the update guys. You convinced me to get the case. Looks like it's going for $40 on Amazon now too. Much better than $60.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Oli2k:
OP, is the back on the phone correctly? I missed one of the clips and it sat like yours does in that picture
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] colts187:
Mine sucked the first day but it got better with time at staying shut
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eyecon82:
The problem is with the hinge area.

It would have helped tremendously if they added on just 1mm of material in the hinge area
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 05GT:
You have to give the flap time to break in. Initially that fold is very stiff and needs to soften up which happens after you open and close a while.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eyecon82:
Having 1 mm more of material in the hinge area would solve this and protect the chrome bezel on the right side of the device better
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eyecon82:
Plus it would make opening the cover just a little easier
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Thatoneguy.:
does the s view work even with a third party launcher like nova? or does it have to be touchwiz stock launcher?

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jmoak:
I've seen what happens on incoming calls but no one ever mentions what happens when you receive a text.

Do you get to see a snippet of the text? Or just the notification icon?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] colts187:
Just the notification bar preview and an icon. Kind of lame. Only thing u can do is answer calls.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mohaimed:
try this:

Closed the case and used a hair dryer to heat up the side of the case(hinge side). Ran my fingers up and down the seam

while holding the case tightly closed.

Let it cool completely.

P.S. i bought it with just 10$ from my country :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Nexii:
just to make sure.... it is snapped on properly right? i just got mine today, and thought i had the same problem, then i heard it snap in on the spine area and it closes perfectly now.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mohaimed:
what do u mean? how did u make it stay down? can u be a little more specific?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eyecon82:
just time....put something on top of it....samsung screwed up..they should have added 1 more mm to the hinge and it would be perfect
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mohaimed:
is there any way that we can fix it ourselves? i have tried putting pressure, and it stays down. but it again goes back up overtime.. may b some of us can fix it and post a video on youtube. i will try. u guys should try as well :)

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] samiamapirate:
Minor modifications fix the issue

I also had this exact problem when I installed the official S-view cover. With very minor modifications to my Otterbox I was able to not only have it stay shut when not using my phone but also keep it from closing on my fingers while using it. I'll post a picture later when I get a chance for anyone who would like to do the same!:good:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] zeroeffect9k:
With my S View case, I just moved it back and forth a bunch of times and ran my fingers along it till it heated up. That with leaving it face down at night seemed to help. It still stayed open very slightly but not bad. I tried the hair dryer today and can say it does help as it shuts flat. I turned the phone off, and turned the hair dryer on high and ran it up and down along the side (hinge flap). I pressed hard along the side during this back and forth to work it a bit. I didn't want to overheat the phone so I didn't do it very long, but the difference was noticeable as it shuts flat easier.

I notice that if I use the phone a lot with the cover bent back, it doesn't go back to closing prefectly. I think in in time as it wears in it will be fine.

I have a budget of 20k rs.(around that much) and I can afford a Lumia 820 right now. But if I wait for another month or two I MIGHT find the 8X on sale in my budget. Now, question is, which one should I get? The 820 has me going for it except for the screen resolution. Can anyone help?

Get the L820.

It is superior in every way save display.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darthcircuit:
I have both. I much prefer the L820. Even though the display is not as high of resolution as the 8X, It still looks better to me. The super black screen (whatever nokia calls it) looks brilliant.

In my eye, the only thing the 8X has over the L820 is it's weight. 820 is quite a bit heavier. The 8X feels about like the Iphone5.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hrishikesh Somchatwar:
well if you can cooperate with the given memory storage in 8x go for an 8x instead of 820 :cool:

Ok, so I've got a huge problem. First of all, my PC doesn't see my Nexus at all... I've tried all the fixes. In a last ditch effort I tried downgrading to CM 10.0, but I forgot to wipe the data etc. So now it's stuck in a boot cycle. Also My recovery is somehow messed up!

So I can't connect it to my computer, my recovery is messed up, and the Rom isn't booting. HELP! :(

Any way to program custom PRL on stock rom? I tried ##778# but that does not bring up the hidden menu.

Thanks.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] p3tr0s:
I'm not really sure if qpst works with this phone for prl's as i tend to do any modifications on the device itself and haven't used that program in a few years. As for the ##778#, in order for it to work you need a modified build.prop to do it. It's a simple mod but you need root access to do so. Currently i'm running viper and have my phone on a sprint corporate 56013 prl.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mrshades812:
Does that PRL do 3g roaming?

TIA. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] indiscriminant:
You have to be rooted I believe, but can still be on stock rom. Omjs mod pack has the updated epst stuff, I had asked him for it. Then you can do the prl updates on phone.

I was hoping not to have to dev unlock it just yet in case I change my mind about the phone.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] p3tr0s:
yeah, 56013 is a corporate prl so it allows for roaming on verizon 3g network. i rarely ever see 1x on my phone unless i'm waaay out in the boonies.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] leerage:
If there becomes a way to root outside htcdev unlock, you could temp root and then make the adjustment in the build prop so ##778# responds. Until then, htcdev unlock is the only way to get root at the moment.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] SuperiorEVOlution18:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blucmal:
Hey all looking at getting a dev board for use as a mini pc. Wondering can you compile android on arm hardware or only on x86 hardware. If you can compile android on arm I will get a high end quad core dev board, if not will just go for a mid range dual core board. Thought it would be a fun project to have an auto android builder along with file and print server.

Yes I know it will be slow to compile.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuisma:
As long as you've got the tool chain for ARM, you can. Don't expect to get it working on Android though, since bionic (the Android "libc") quite not POSIX, and somewhat difficult to port code to. But if you are using the GNU environment, it's no problem. Myself I do lots of development directly on the ARM architecture using an ASUS Transformer. The only problem you might face, is if you need some tools you've not got the source code to, hence not being able to compile for the ARM architecture.

Check my signature for one way of running the GNU environment on your Android. There are other ways as well.

So maybe a little more info. What caused this to happen, can you get into recovery, download mode. Anything besides your phone is broke will help us fix it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewjt19:
Agreed. Not sure, but did you read enough about this before embarking? Not a sarcastic question honestly.. If you can get into Download Mode (use the directions below) then you should be fine...

1. Pull Battery out

2. Replace said battery

3. Hold the following buttons down similtaneously= Power, Volume Down & Menu

4. The Screen will ask if you want to enter Download Mode= Volume Up to confirm

5. Download the Samsung Drivers

6. Download ODIN

7. Open ODIN

8. Plug in Phone with USB cable (use the most rear USB ports)

9. The Phone should show up in ODIN and flash away (usually the stock ODIN by imnuts if you're experiencing problems)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Good advice, except I recommend alternate restore from same thread. Because odds are they're in the ota so the normal stock Image will fail at sboot
[HTC Rezound] rtpbiker:
The global update for the Rezound is failing installation for me.

The update has been downloaded seven times OTA and has failed installation every time on my phone.

My phone's current version is:

Android version: 4.0.3

HTC Sense version: 3.6

Software number: 3.14.605.13 710RD

Baseband version: 1.22.10.042lr, 1.22.10.0424r

The downloaded OTA version: ADR6425LVW_4.05.605.14-3.14.605.13

It successfully downloads the file, reboots into "Android system recovery", and displays the following error...

RA Revamped...

Build : RA-VIGOR-v3.16-getitnowmarketing

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

wrong taskid 221384E:Error in /cache/fumo/OTAPkg.zip

(Status 1)

Installation aborted.

The phone's bootloader is relocked and "S-OFF".

I've also deleted the OTAPkg.zip file from /cache/fumo, and the "fumo" directory itself, and re-downloaded the OTAPkg.zip file but it still failed installation.

The OTAPkg.zip file is 217,141,266 bytes in size.

The resetting of my phone and getting it hung in the Android System Recovery every few hours is getting annoying.

Anybody have any ideas on how to get this fixed and the Global update successfully installed?

Thanks,

Dan
[HTC Rezound] gr8nole:
It is probably because you have a custom recovery.
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
Yeah you gotta flash the rezounds stock recovery before you can take OTA
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
To get the effects of the latest zip without the stock flash this. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12405441/new.global.firm.PH98IMG.zip

Make sure you are s-off. You will loose fast boot till we can get an engineering one.
[HTC Rezound] rtpbiker:
Thanks for the info. I had forgotten that I had previously flashed the amon-ra recovery. As suggested, I flashed the rezound stock recovery and the darn OTA update still wouldn't flash. The phone gave me a similar error message as before. I then flashed the entire 3.14.605.12 OTA release just to get a known stable release. The phone boots and reports that an OTA is available (to go from 3.14.605.12 to 3.14.605.13), but then times out while trying to download the firmware and gives the following error: "SERVICE UNAVAILABLE Check for Software Update under Settings when service is available". The Status reports Download Failed, Code 503. It's late, I'm giving up for the night.

TBH i have seen any improvement over the leaked OTA before this one.
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
I posted instructions for how to flash firmware.zip while s-on in the other global thread

You will need firmware.zip (linked to in that thread), a nandroid backup, your HTC unlock code, and possibly a coy of the stock HTC recovery.
[HTC Rezound] Chuck Snorus:
Brenuga, thanks for the instructions. If I'm S-on, locked and running stock recovery and the global leak and wanted to end up in the same configuration but with the new firmware, would I just fastboot erase cache and then fastboot flash zip firmware.zip?
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
You also have to do fastboot oem rebootRUU before you can flash firmware.zip, and remember to flash it again after it errors out the first time.

You may lose your current boot.img so have it ready to flash after updating firmware or else you will bootloop.
[HTC Rezound] RooterNoob83:
please have pity on me. i don't even know what s-on or s-off mean. all the tech jargon is confusing.

My rezound is rooted, but just so i can use it as a wifi hotspot. never done anything else to it.

it keeps on rebooting and fails to install this new update. my recovery screen says exactly what the OP's did.

i don't want to wipe my phone just for a stupid update. i'm not convinced that i even need an update. how can i stop it from updating or doing this?

in an unrelated note, is there a way i could hack my rezound so that i don't have to pull the stupid ring and deal with the lock screen?

can't i just press the unlock/power button and be on the home screen? just tell me what thread and keywords to search for, thanks!
