Hi guys,

Got my hands on a Noreve case for the S4 a few days ago, and wanted to share my thoughts on it.

Noreve is a company from France, and they make very high quality leather cases for just about every device out there in the mobile arena. The cases are of the highest quality leather, and very well constructed. As with all Noreve cases I've seen and reviewed up until this time, the workmanship throughout is outstanding. I personally really love this company because they have a keen eye for detail.

After trying this case out for a few days, I can safely say that it's pretty much everything I could have expected from Noreve - great packaging, and a very high quality case. Here are a few shots of the box, which also comes in a red pouch. The case itself will be in this red pouch, meant to protect the case. I've always seen this as a very nice, thoughtful touch.

Once you're inside the box, you'll be greeted by the wonderful smell of excellent, high quality leather. While soft, it's also very durable, and the stitching is spot on all across the case. The case slides in without any hassles, but it's also not very easy to get out, which is a good thing. You don't really want the case to unintentionally come off.

The ports such as the power button and volume rocker can be easily accessed. And because they are recessed in due to the case, they will be protected from drops as well. Here's a few shots of the case from the sides.

Speaking of drops, the phone and case held up just fine to the 3-4 drops I put it through, on direct pavement. Three of them were from waist height, and one from neck height. Didn't seem to be a problem anywhere, and the case held on to the phone firmly all four times.

Another thing I like about Noreve is their metal grills for the speakers on the front and back of the case. It's the first time I'm seeing a front facing speaker grill from them, but it does look quite attractive. The front grill hasn't been implemented on any other models as far as I can tell - they for sure weren't there for the Galaxy Nexus, etc.

I really like how the phone feels very sturdy with the case on. I also have the Samsung smart cover and it drives me crazy, simply because the flap on it won't fully close. It just flaps about. With this, the phone is locked in tight and protected.

Overall, I'd have to say that this is another fantastic case from Noreve. While not one of the cheaper cases out there, you get what you pay for. And considering that it's a handmade, genuine leather case from France, I'd say it's well worth it, considering they provide free shipping with DHL as a bonus. I've tested quite a few of their products now, so I can easily vouch for the sheer quality they provide.

Anyone interested can check out the page for the S4 here. It's well worth checking out because Noreve offer a ton of customization for their cases. You can basically get them in any color/finish you can think of.

Also, anyone interested in purchasing the case, they can use this discount code - Yener2013. It will take off 15% of your order.

Cheers.

Thanks for the review. I have the noreve flip case for my old desire and it is lovely. One off the things I like was that the metal of the case was bent around to hold the phone.. all other cases I have seen use a plastic tray fixed too the cover.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrettnx:
So I unlocked, flashed CW recovery (which I've done without any issues on a few other Nexus phones since the N1)... but this time it all went terribly wrong :(

I can't boot, I get the "X" bootloop. I tried to reboot into recovery to clear the cache, but It won't boot into recovery either... once it vibrates it just powers off.

I'm at a bit of a loss.. does anyone have any ideas? :\

Can you get into the bootloader?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrettnx:
I actually just got it sorted out - I wasn't able to get into the bootloader by holding down vol+power, but I was able to get into bootloader by unplugging USB and then holding vol up/down (NOT power) and plugging USB back in...

I gather this is an alternative way to get into the bootloader

all good now!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ProFragger:
Hello Friends,

Bought a Sprint Note 2 with 4.1.2 installed on it, unrooted. (Don't remember the OTA build number).

I rooted via the Toolkit, Installed TWRP, and currently have Synergy MC2 installed, with the Baseband, reading the same thing under About Phone menu.

I am going to attempt the flash the phone to Verizon, which is what I have, but it appears that the 16 digit Samsung password required for CDMA Workshop, does not work for the Note 2 4.1.2 release, but still works on 4.1.1.

I need someone's help in telling me exactly how I can safely downgrade with the Radio, as well? Preferably, not losing Root, and then once the flash is completed, coming back to MC2?

I appreciate all your help in advance! Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ProFragger:
No one... guys :)?

Thank you Sir, appreciate that! Coming from HTC, I believe there were proper steps to follow to safely downgrade or upgrade Radios (Modems) and maybe even firmware...

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] XxLostSoulxX:
Nope just wipe cache and dalvic etc... or use the one click option like mc2 stock restore or even stock with root access with a simple click through an exe

Can't remember where but it's on here somewhere.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Downgrading thru odin from 4.1.2 TW to 4.1.1 TW thru Odin is a little bit more tricky due to Sboot.bin not wanting to revert so you have to use a modified tar without the sboot or packed with the 4.1.2 sboot or else the odin flash will fail when it reaches the sboot partition. For a temporary downgrade like hes looking for its simpler to flash the rom and baseband via recovery. If you want to downgrade more permanently then there's ways to full downgrade everything but it's a little bit of work.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] idealk23:
sorry if i posted it on the wrong section but unfortunately there isnt a section for my phone(LG DoublePlay)

this is just a general questino about ADB pushing.

i accedentally deleted a system app on my phone and now my phone doesnt respond. i have a stock ROM and want to push the app back into the phone. but i forgot which system app i deleted.

also, i cannot flash the ROM because my phone doesnt allow that

QUESTION: if i push all the system apps/files into the phone, will there be two copies of the same or will it replace the original?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nbeebe24:
Pushing an app will overwrite whatever you're trying to. Why can't you flash?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] idealk23:
i cant. my phone doesnt let my flash. there arent even any roms for my phone :( ....LG DoublePlay sucks. i wasnt able to fix my phone still. dont

know what i will do anymore. just cause i deleted something.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] CharliesTheMan:
There's got to be a stock RUU image or something you can run. its definitely fixable most likely. Its late here and I've been sick, but if you send me a PM with the model of your phone and everything I will do some research.

(I realize the irony in that sentence. Lol)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nbeebe24:
Oh i see now... You're posting in the wrong threads. Anyway, you can push whole folders with adb so you should be okay.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] idealk23:
so many thanks bro :) ive been asking around for days and no one seemed to help me. Anyways, my device is the LG DoublePlay(c729).

I downloaded a file from another guy that has the stock rom(funny cause there isnt a single on ein the internet. had to pm him for it).

anyways, after i rooted my phonei wanted to be an idiot and delete the bloatware. i accidentally deleted a system file on Titanium Backup

and an error came saying 'the process home(lge.SubDIsplayhome.app........" it has a force close button that when i click, it comes up again.

my phone works fine except the forceclose button and the second screen doesnt work(the LG DOUBLEPLAY has a second small scrren when you

slide it). So i read about adb pushing and figured why not?After hours of frustration and hair pulling, i was able to push and apk called SubDisplayHome.apk and .odex thinking that i mustve deleted that , since the there error said the the SUbDisplayHome blah blah stop working.

well, after i pushed both .apk and .odex into the system/app, i rebooted and it still gave the error. i then tried to use this program called batch adb or something(it "takes multiple files and pushes it to system). but i got errors on the program when it was pushing it. the top bar on my android phone dissappeared and so i rebooted it, and it came back. but i still wasnt able to get rid of that force close button. sorry if i made you read all this, ive given up on fixing this and am thinking of paying 200 dollars for technician repair at LG
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fkinrawr:
Perhaps I really just do have bad luck but thought I would share my experiences... I got the One through pre order and the device was solid except for a small gap at the bottom that I could live with. However, about 3 weeks in I was using my speakers to listen to some music using google play all access my device was burning hot when I picked it up from my bed (hot enough to a point in which I actually felt the burning sensation in my palm) I immediately ended all processes and did a restary just to be safe, when the device restarted I noticed there was no boot animation sound and soon realized that my speakers were inoperable and wouldnt generate a sound for anything. Then when I got my warranty replacement I noticed that my screen had a warm tint and flickered quite often and after about an hour of using it thw device shut off and wouldnt turn back on no matter what key combination I tried, and the led wouldnt turn on either. I visited a local at&t store that happened to be the store that the regional manager was visiting that day (the only piece of goodluck) where he just took the device (without box or anything at all just the phone) reversed my upgrade and let me pick any device of the same value for free.. (which I couldnt believe because even customer retention said I was out of luck and would have to try again with another refurb, btw I grabbed a gs4 which im ok with for now, might be back to the One once these issues are sorted out) sorry for the rant but this experience with at&t has definitely instilled some faith for me that at&t isnt always useless.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kozak79:
Is there a way to install apps that say they are incompatible? I tried installing MAX GO, but it says it's incompatible with my NOOK HD+. HBO GO, basically the same app is compatible.

There are a bunch of other apps, like Optimum Cable app that won't install. The weird thing, I used to be able to at least search for them before 2.10, but now they won't even show up in the Play Store.

I have the latest Extras installed to allow other sources and I reran Rooting after 2.10 upgrade, and have Root access. I also tried "Market Helper" app to spoof the tablet, but it seems to have old tablets in the list, like Kindle and Kindle HD.

Thanks.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Not much you can do other than install from other stores like 1mobile.com or Amazon.com or try getting from another device. Most will run if you can get them to install.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealCrogge:
Since a few days my S3 is opening the home screen itself, so basically the same action as pressing the main button of the S3. It does that especially after a fresh start for 2-3 minutes in an interval of 10~ seconds and afterwards randomly. Surprisingly this doesn't happen in fullscreen games.

There is no black screen or any pause, it simply changes the the homescreen in a normal way and I have no idea why.

Does anyone has an idea what could cause this problem?

I removed a few applications recently like Link2SD, SDBooster and Volume Locker. Are the removals maybe related with this issue?

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pryorda:
Hey Guys, I am curious as to if this device can be returned to stock after rooting / unlocking. I'm also wondering if we can root it and flash custom recovery without unlocking the boot loader. Also, once you have changed roms can you go back to the stock rom and ASUS not know?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwiberg:
Not sure I understand your first question. Rooting and/or unlocking does not remove your stock rom...

And no, you must be unlocked to flash custom recovery . And no, it is not possible to relock, so ASUS

will

know your device has been unlocked,
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pryorda:
hmm.

Lame Do you have to be unlocked to Root and Debloat?

no mate there is a way to root and keep you bootloader locked, its called motochopper and there is a guide on here

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Macmee:
I know several people have been complaining that their N7s had light leak issues. Mine had leaking around the edges and a circular leak in the top right of the screen which was noticeable when I put my tablet down on a desk and used it at a 90 >= angle. I contacted ASUS and sent my N7 back, not only did they swap out my LCD but also gave me a brand new battery too!

I suppose the only money I'm out now is the money I spent on the screen protector that was on the unit when I sent it in (I'm assuming that by replacing the LCD, that the LCD is directly attached to the outer plastic of the screen, which includes the surface the screen protector was on).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
Cool story, bro.

How do you know they replaced the battery?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thenextgendeveloper:
Got the same thing they replaced my screen because of backlight bleeding and when i opened my n7 today when i got it back and i noticed some extra stick tape at my battery and some kind of weird steel or iron plate connected to my battery wich wasnt there before i send it

The steel plate is on the bottom right and im missing a screw! Should i send it back?

The screw im missing is between my second and third finger

This may be a tricky one...

A while back I tried to install a modded version of Drive(blacked out) via flashing it in CWM. For what ever reason it would not take so I decided to go ahead with the regular version. A while later I needed to remove drive from my P970, for what reason I can't remember. The issue now is I can't install it via APK of Play Store. When I attempt to install it I get an error "Update is not compatible". I'm thinking that there may be some bits left over but I'm not entirely sure what to remove... In my # dir I see com.google.docs and some other folders that may be a part of drive but I'm not sure.

Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus Black] OptimusDan:
Ok figured it out. Originally I looked around for any traces of drive and thought I removed all the little bits left behind but that didn't work out. I ended up finding the file online pulled it out of the zip installed it manually and unistalled it using the play store. After that drive installed through the play store. Voila!

[HTC One X+] christmas_time:
I'm working on rooting my very first android phone for the very first time, and I've run across a snag. I've been following Luckythirteen's guide to rooting found here, but so far I've been unable to flash the TWRP recovery. Here's what I posted in the original thread:

Help! I've followed the steps to the T, but I'm struggling with installing the recovery. I've unlocked my bootloader, downloaded the TWRPrecovery.img, put it in the right folder. As soon as I boot into the bootloader, my phone seems to disconnect from the computer. I still have fastboot usb selected, but my device no longer shows up under adb devices. When I try to >fastboot flash recovery TWRPrecovery.img, I get an error "error: cannot load 'TWRPrecovery.img' : Unknown error"

I've got the international HOX+ and a computer running Win7. Any assistance in the matter would be super appreciated.

I hope I've provided enough information for someone to help me out here. I'm a complete Android beginner so this is all a little overwhelming. Thanks.
[HTC One X+] reaper90:
It is normal that your device does not show using "under adb devices" when in fastboot. You have to use "fastboot devices" instead. Try and see if your dive shows up there.

Also did you try redownloading the recovery.img and/or reinstallung HTC Drivers?
[HTC One X+] christmas_time:
Hey, thanks for the reply. You're right, I did end up finding it under fastboot devices, but it still wouldn't work. Since then I've tried flashing a recovery using the all in one kit found in this, and adb shows that the flash was successful, however when I select recovery under the HBOOT menu, it just shuts off my phone, and when I power up again it reboots normally. Any idea what's up now?
[HTC One X+] reaper90:
Where exactly did you see that flashing process was successful? What about your HTC drivers? Are they up to date? What version of TWRP did you try to install?
[HTC One X+] christmas_time:
The adb command window shows the flashing process just like the images in the initial tutorial. I've tried reinstalling the drivers a few times now, would it show me the device under fastboot devices if my drivers weren't working? I tried the latest TWRP, 2.5.0.0. Sorry for double-posting, I wasn't aware you were the same guy from the other thread!
[HTC One X+] reaper90:
did you see the following two things in the command window? "sending recovery.img" an then "done"?

and just to be sure: you picked the right recovery version for the One X+?
[HTC One X+] christmas_time:
I must admit to my embarrassment that yes, it turns out I was trying to flash the wrong recovery (HOX instead of HOX+) and now I feel like an idiot, but I've finally gotten it to work, and I'm finally rooted! Thanks so much!
[General Questions and Answers] khals:
Hi folks

I have a HTC Touch Pro, with a dead screen. It simply won't turn on at all, but I can still hear it boot up and answer phonecalls though. There's no led indicator on the keyboard anymore either and neither does it show the charging light. Basicly all lights are off. Even tried hardresetting, but still absolutely nothing is visible :)

What I'd like to know if it's possible to make a full backup of the phone to the sd card, as I have another working Touch Pro, that I could restore this backup to then. I've tried connecting the phone to the PC via Activesync, but Windows doesn't recognise the "USB device" and hence Activesync won't sync. I was originaly thinking of using MyMobiler to view what was going on on the phone and take a backup from there, but I'm running out of options now :(

I really hope someone out there could have a solution so I might recover some of the photo's that are still lying on the device.

Thanks for your interest :)

How did you root it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cuban Cigar:
Using Odin 3v 1.85 with all the drivers installed and using twrp and cwm .

Now i cant find the Super User app any more.

I can get to recovery, but dont have super user. I read this happens if the phone was upgraded to the latest firmware before upgrading.

No fix for this yet?

Use that method for rooting. Instead of flashing the root.zip he has, I flashed the kernel he posted about at **update** and then installed SuperSU. Works great.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cuban Cigar:
Will try now, thanks again
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Atmazzz:
Since you already have a recovery you can get to you can probably just flash that kernel. If you can't find su just flash SuperSU again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cuban Cigar:
Didn't work, It does everything right but i still have the same issue that can't find SU.

I wonder if i can do this like he posted there....I'm about to try desperates measurements....

ou can flash back to the May 7th OTA boot.img using the entire firmware, or you can flash it in a zip.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] -Falco:
If you have a recovery, just flash a rom from development thread. They all have root access. Wicked recommended.
