Just curious, when I was researching which phone to buy I read some posts from other carrier forums that screens tend to break very easily from short distances or even in a pocket. Havent seen posts for VZ yet. Im very careful with this probably too careful
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcanexvi:
Haven't broken the screen but the frame of this phone is crap coming from Motorola. It's hit the ground twice from less than 3 feet and has 3 rather large dents in the housing. Once was falling off the seat in my car to a rubber all season floor mat which shouldn't do crap but left a dent. I'll give samsung the nod on internal hardware but the chassis is awful. A friend of mine dropped his from about waist high onto the edge and shattered his screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Grtkbrandon:
I have a pretty extensive history with Motorola and have come to the same conclusion. I had my phone on my bed and accidentally dropped my belt on the top right corner of the phone and it left a noticeable indention. I immediately went out and bought a case for the phone even though I've never worried about one with any previous phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] elvisamy:
if you afraid the screen would be broken, you should buy Nokia mobilephone. otherwise, you could buy a phone case to protect your mobilephone.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Serubin:
My phone feel maybe a foot, if that onto concrete and the screen cracked from the corner. The screen still works, the touch buttons still work. Just a crack. Luckily GeekSquad covers accidentals. I ended up getting a SlimArmor case form SpiGen. Did some small drop tests on my sidewalk. Seems to protect it pretty well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jayochs:
yeah the frame does suck. mine creaks lol its not fully pushed against the body. silly Samsung

i got mine last Wednesday. love it...been super careful with it and was going to get a case yesterday on lunch...when i got to work i grabbed the phone from my console and went to get out of my truck and the phone bumped the steering wheel causing it to fly out of my hand and onto the pavement :( i pick it up and the outer glass is complete spider webbed and cracked all down it....sucks ....since i just got it Verizon hadn't activated my insurance or some BS so now im fighting with them to get it replaced...the insurance co don't want to do it...sigh...all else fells i found these outside case with the glass(no lcd) for 12 bucks on ebay.....:crying:

i had the razr before this and have dropped it multiple times with no cracks....

wow that looks like a good case
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] theresin:
I carry my new phones around like they're a newborn child, won't put it in a pocket that has anything else in it or near the desk/nightstand edges. It's all about minimizing risks - like not trying to carry too many things at once.

With that being said, there's a 100% chance I'll drop this phone at some point. My GS3 survived a couple major drops with a few small dents in the corner .... as much as I like the look/feel of the GS4 a million times more than the GS3, I feel like the reduced bezel size and straight/rigid edges won't be as durable.

Get a case guys!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Evocm7:
exactly

Not at all. Been 2 years since I've dropped one. It's a little weird but I get kind of attached to technology and take care of it. I'm the kind of person that doesn't want a single scratch on my phone and I hate cases so I just don't drop anything and nothing belongs in my right pocket but my phone

I just got a Spigen Neo Hybrid case. It's slim and sexy, but now I'm concerned it won't offer much protection for anything but the shortest falls. I'll have to check out this one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JayyBiggs:
I got mine on release day, and haven't dropped it once. I carried it for a few days with no case to enjoy the slim profile of the phone. Bought an Incipio case for it and seems to do the job. Of course like I said... haven't dropped it. I plan on picking up that Neo Hybrid as well, its gorgeous! :good::highfive:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Diversion:
Wife broke her S4 today.. dropped it on some kind of hard floor at work.. It didn't break the glass but it broke the OLED underneath.. the colors and stuff are all out of whack. We have warranty so we'll be reporting it soon enough :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
Ive got a case on mine and I'm about to order a few more maybe that workman case. I know I'll drop it at some point but if I do I'll turn it into best buy warranty for a replacement:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] inzandity:
I try to treat my phone like a newborn as well, but accidents happen. It's fallen out of my lap a couple times to the hardwood, but I think the incipio dual pro saved it. Phone is still prefect.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tonytien:
Here with a naked T-Mo S4, phone has a few small scratches on the screen and some dings on the bezel. The phone did slip out of my hand from about 2 feet onto tile today but I noticed no damage. Quite impressed so far, actually.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LGeX:
Mine slipped right off of my lap onto tile floor last weekend and escaped unscathed. The $4.95 Minisuit case was completely worth it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kack:
I dropped mine from 15 foot high scared the heck out of me. Luckily it was in an otterbox defender. Nothing was wrong :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gotroot801:
Mine slipped out of my hand and landed back-first on the concrete last week. No problems. Incipio case.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jwenz723:
I haven't dropped mine yet. But the iPhone 5 vs galaxy s4 destruction test on CNET gives me a little more confidence in the build quality of my phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Did you have the otter box screen protector on it or popped out?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] saul1991:
i dropped mine getting out of the car on my way to class it fell face down and the silver rim around it chipped a little
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mwm523:
Thinking about wrapping mine in bubble wrap...:silly:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dark_Stang:
My fiance picked up an S4 a week ago. She dropped it once (as in, never before this) getting out of my mustang. It slid off her lap and fell from maybe 2'. The glass screen instantly shattered. We just came from Thunderbolts and dropped them dozens of times, so we weren't used to having something so fragile. That repair was not cheap, I highly recommend getting a good case for one of these things. If you want to go naked or with one of Samsung's dinky little flip cases, get the insurance. You will drop it and that front glass will shatter, it is wafer thin and weak.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jayochs:
man, i see this ALL THE TIME. how the hell do people seriously forget they have their $700 phone in their lap, and just get out and it smashes? better yet, who the hell holds a phone in their lap when they're driving? like come on...window mounts, cupholders, little cubby things, pockets..not your lap, ugh.

knock on wood, i've NEVER had insurance, and i don't use anything more than a TPU case, and i've never broken a phone in my life. i just don't get how some people are so clumsy with their incredibly expensive electronics.

I have the screen out of mine and an invisishield on the screen. I can't stand the dust and dirt that gets in between the OB screen and phine screen.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Vampyre111:
I've dropped mine 3 times so far. The damn thing is as slippery as a fish. Fortunately, it's always been on a carpet so no damage. I have a flip cover, but I didn't like it and now I can't find it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] amandacam:
My previous S3 got the corner dented when it slip into the rugged floor...i also forgot why it got dropped..out of my conscious..the silver edge got wiped off a patch......:crying: so I now not dare to use the samsung original flip case

For my new S4..fortunately not yet..i have a good corner protection for my new buddy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dzigns:
I have dropped my phone probably half a dozen times already. I have had a speck case & zagg screen protector on it since day one. It slips out of my hoodie pocket, my purse, my lap, my hands and landed on concrete, asphalt and hard floors (like tile) all the time :/. This phone is SO slippery. So far zero damage (knock on wood) except some scuffs on my case. I did think I borked it last night when it flipped out of my hand & landed on a hard floor and mobile data stopped working. However, 2 reboots later mobile data was working great & all was well! Maybe they aren't as fragile as they feel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] casis86:
Mine several times cant count it even more, different grounds, home, outside,work.

Got a krusell hard cover which is quite fine. Only thing what happend one small bump on a corner and haptic feedback sounds a bit wierd
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jadecamaro:
I had to upgrade to the Galaxy S4 after I fell with the phone in my pocket and cracked the screen. Not only the screen was ruined but so was something inside as it wouldn't turn on or charge after that.

The day I picked up the Galaxy I bought the otterbox commute and screen protector and vzw insurance.

I haven't dropped it yet but am discouraged by the slippery hard plastic on the otterbox as the phone has slide out of my hand if I don't hold around the grippy rubber parts.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ahatzz11:
I've had two s4's in the last two weeks. The first one needed to be returned due to an error not associated with it falling. I dropped it from a few feet onto hardwood and it made a small indentation in the side, nothing that was very noticeable. I now have a case on the second one I have gotten and I haven't dropped it. Hopefully it stays in good condition! :cowboy:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dennisg34:
The phone is so slippery with no case, i had order mine a little later and two days before it came in the mail, it slipped out of my hands at about 4 feet onto the pavement..got a little gash near the corner...where my case's most shock protection would've been lol...fml
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Settaz:
I dropped mine, but not a problem because if my case.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hinds90:
Haha good news I have the same set up. Zagg screen protectors are really good most people don't like the texture but that slight thickness adds a lot of protection

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Coderedpl:
I was using the official protective Cover, the day I gave it to a family member and waited for my UAG to arrive. I dropped it twice from my bed whole reading. Survived without a scratch. Got my UAG and it slipped out of my hand once from chest height. Not a scratch on it either.

Currently have the UAG case and Glas.Tr protector

I dropped mine once in my spigen slim armor case which I have no use for anymore if anyone wants it. 3 ft on to hard floor. Did a bouncing dancing fall and land. Was fine. But now I got the defender otter box and pushed out the screen protector and kept mine on the device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] a.demarco:
i dropped mine from my pocket... 2 days after i bought it. no case, so you can imagine what happened. i was unhappy. however, i will say that the touchscreen still works even in the area that was cracked.

Dropped it a few times. Otter box commuter case saved the day. Hit concrete and tile from about 4.5' up.

Look for an RUU if your phone has them. You can do that from fastboot.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isalas16:
I downloaded an RUU but ended up not using it, I was finally able while in recovery to use adb push in order to copy the files, It did not work for me until I renamed the rom to something short like "rom"

This is the command I used while the phone was in the home screen of recovery using TWRP

C:\htcone>adb push rom.zip /sdcard

After entering that command the prompt remain there for about 3minutes until it showed this message:

3583 KB/s (1001782246 bytes in 273.002s)

Once this was done I was able to flash normally and the phone is back in business

is it possible to change the note 2's screen dpi down?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuxonhtc:
There are plenty of 240 dpi ROMs. I'm using X note now and it has multiple tablet/phablet dpis with floating multiwindows.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7xnari:
damn
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuxonhtc:
Or you could just change lcd_density in build.prop - but I'd recommend trying out a 240dpi touchwiz based ROM like X Note or Moon ROM. You could also download lcd ddensity changer from play store.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D3_:
Be aware that if you change the density to 240dpi yourself you'll have to get 240dpi compatible versions of the Samsung keyboard, camera, dialer etc. You can find them in the themes and apps section.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sawdoctor:
If you use xposed and the app settings apk you can just change the dpi on a per app basis so the apps that only work at 320 can be left. It also gives you the option to select tablet mode on most apps too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] volvoforaren:
I used Odin to unlock the bootloaders on my S3. Odin said it completed successfully and the phone shut off but never came back on. I've tried pulling the battery for a few hours but that didn't do anything. I can't get into download or recovery mode. The phone doesn't do anything; no lights or sounds. The only time anything happens is if I plug it into my computer with the battery out; the red LED will go on for a few minutes but nothing else happens. My computer (Macbook with partitions for Lion & Windows 7, have tried with both operating systems) recognizes a device is plugged in but nothing actually happens. What do?

UPDATE: sent it off to have it JTAG'd and it's not bricked. JTAG guy says the eMMC is probably corrupted. So much for giving Android another shot.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
Yes. ..the development section. ..

All current roms and links are there....

Just be sure to read the individual OP's (original posts) of any modified roms you intend to flash. ..

As they contain important information about the roms you "need" to know. ..

Much like your overheat issues. ..more problems arise if steps are missed. ..

And without question. ..make a backup of your EFS partition before flashing new builds. .

We have a handful of devices that are eating those important files. ..and without backups to rebuild with. ..the device is toast...

Happy flashing. ..g

I'm not sure when this started, but I just started noticing this while I was trying to use Multi-mount: when the app tries to request permissions from SuperUser, it's automatically denied and won't get them. I've tried this on another of other apps and I'm getting the same results. I've tried messing around with the settings of SuperUser and everything but to no avail. Someone know how to fix this?

If u unlock the bootloader,it is much easier to root ur phone without any risk by flashing custom karnel.but u still can root ur phone.but u have to downgrade ur firmware version to .58. Coz .62 firmware is not rootable.

---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:44 PM ----------

Very simple...if u flash custom karnel then go to cwm and in advance option u can find a option calling partition sd card.just partition ur sd card through it.

Another way is using ur pc with mini partition wizard softwere.its also a easy method.

But remember that by partitioning process the sd card format automatically.so backup ur data first.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hunfatal:
Instead of link2sd I suggest Mounts2SD, with that you can move application's data too, not just libs, dalvik and APK. I personally moved everything, except cache and dalvik cache. This way I've got 3GB (ext partition size) "internal storage".
