[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bunny2rock:
I know this might sound wired but ya the title says it all!!!

I woke up in the morning i felt that the note is slightly bent as in its raised on the left hand side of the phone!!

I have a bad habit of keeping the note 2 next to me while sleeping so i must've rolled on top of it last night!!

Is it possible for it to happen in the first place???

Or may be keeping in my pocket of tight pants and riding the bike can do that to my note 2??

I'm shocked!! Its been hardly 15 days since i bought it!!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shhbz:
well this seems impossible as though the phone make is plastic it cant bent if you have rolled on top as the mattress is soft enough to protect the impact or rather it could have broken due to body pressure and to the contrary i have been carrying the phone in my jeans riding my bike to for the last 3 months and no issues whatsoever.

can you post screen of the bent position
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyall29:
I'm calling shenanigans.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bunny2rock:
Im taking pic with different cams but that slight bent is not visible in those pics so thats why wasnt responding buddy!! anyways I ll try something in order to show my note
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liubutu:
N2 is a big phone, I carry mine in my pocket too, but I try to keep it safe from bending. Its a fact that its easy to bend such a big and long phone but riding a bicycle and bending it is a bit weird, we are waiting for pictures and further posting from you. And if thats true, try to use your warranty and get a new one? You might get lucky!

Is it really bent.... than thats one in a million production. Sounds weird thou...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandulea:
I've seen videos of product testing for the GN2, and one test involved twisting the phone. It always returned to its original shape, and the twist was quite severe. You'd need a lot of force to bend this phone beyond the yield point and I'm not sure you can reach it by rolling over it on a bed. Check the battery, if you haven't already, maybe it's defective, bulging out and bending the phone in the process.

I've also carried my phone in different pockets on my bike since I got it, 1-2 months after it came out. I even fell on it once when my front wheel slipped on a patch of ice. There is a slight ripple in the glass now, only noticeable at a sharp angle, but I don't know if it's from my fall or just a manufacturing issue. Either way, I'm quite impressed with the phone's durability. If falling ass-first on it on the hard icy pavement didn't break it, I'm sure rolling over it in bed wouldn't either. I'd check it thoroughly to be certain that they couldn't blame me for damaging it and send it to warranty.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bushako:
It doesn't make sense because the front panel which basically made of hardened glass shouldn't bend. If anything any stress beyond its limit will end up breaking it. Anyways, try getting a clear shot otherwise people will have a hard time believing you.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyall29:
Exactly.

I would think that the only way to bend a glass panel would be to use an extreme amount of heat, like a torch. You would have to heat up the glass until glows red, and then bend the it. I just googled "how to bend glass" and here is a link for anyone interested, http://m.wikihow.com/Bend-Glass

You could possibly flex it, but it should snap right back into its original shape. Besides, the rest of the phone is a fairly flexible plastic.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adytum:
Well there you have it. Obviously he was riding his bike on the sun!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bunny2rock:
LOL!! ROFL!!!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rihardszz:
So at the moment I have installed JB on my phone. (Galaxy ace 2) At the moment im having problems on using youtube app, and phone laggs, i think it might be caused by RAM usage. wich never falls bellow like 400 unless i clean it ( then 350) and i got only 550 mb...

I was thinking of installing a CyanogenMod , but I'm wondering... Then i need to root my device. So if I root it i can install the ROM. But what if I dont like the ROM? I can easily take it off, back to stock ROM ?

Also if I have Rooted JB and I want to put back GB I have to unroot first or I can just simply Install the GB firmware and all done ?

thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WisdomSky:
Flashing a ROM via a Flashtool or via a custom recovery like Clockworkmod does not require you root access.... so basically, root access is not really necessary in flashing a new ROM...

the super user/switch user binary and the super user app which is reponsible for handling root permissions of any user app is part of the System partition. This system partition is the most common partition replaced/rewritten when flashing a new ROM. So in other words, if your phone is rooted and you flash a new ROM, your root access will also be removed unless it is included in the ROM you're going to flash...

[Sony Xperia ZL] sanjulgupta:
It's a kind of screensaver service I guess

Remember old NOKIA symbian days where we used to get a clock always displayed on the screen for infinite

The feature is a good addon but yes it uses a lot of battery

Thank god we have a option to turn it OFF or ON on our will :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] sanjulgupta:
Please verify again because I just checked in my phone and I am definitly getting an option for preview in the Camera APP :)

See the screenshots
[Sony Xperia ZL] einfachgaer:
Sorry if my statement wasn't 100% clear. What I wanted to say is, that I get this feature with the 4.2.2 update. I'm not sure if this feature was already implemented in the .253 update or the .307 firmware. And I like the preview feature a lot!
[Sony Xperia ZL] sanjulgupta:
Oh sorry I took it wrong

I just recently got my Xperia ZL and it was preloaded with .253 fw and this feature was there

I find the camera app faster now and opening camera settings it very quick now

[Sony Xperia ZL] etinkrad:

[Sony Xperia ZL] sanjulgupta:
When I buy a SONY phone I never expect good battery life

Coz I expect many more amzing things from phone that definitely this phone has

I have not compared the diff as such

But I like the update

press THANX if I helped you in any way :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] weezill:
For the size of the battery, it seems fine to me. I had a Note and Note 2 before this phone, and they lasted longer but had bigger batteries. I see lots of people thinking they have battery issues, but it's got a 5" screen. LTE is a pig in my experience, so you have to look at things like that.
[Sony Xperia ZL] sanjulgupta:
Welcome

Well in that case welcome to SONY family I am a big fan of sony having used X8 then ARC then Xperia S and now the beast Xperia ZL

Yes Samsung Note series does definitely win in terms of battery but in many things they are far behind SONY :)

Hope you are enjoying being with SONY
[Sony Xperia ZL] weezill:
I'm loving the ZL. I had the chance to get the S4, but I just wanted something different. No regrets! Also, all my coworkers who got the S4 say my phone looks smaller :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] sanjulgupta:
Yes

That's the best part ZL is definitely most compact 5" phone present in market and even smaller than many 4.7" or greater size phones :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] sanjulgupta:

[HTC One S] iiigeorgievi:
Can someone help installing V6 script on my JB 4.1.1 android? I looked the thread, read it but there are so many files and infos so I got very confused... Any help will be much appreciated.

p.s Did someone tried Seeder ont Htc one s C2?
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
I used that mod on my Ville (S4), although I limited myself to Maximum Multitasking, Non-Sense App Limit, Unlimited Recent Apps Panels.

Basically what I did was:

1) make a nandroid

2) use the script (it's very long to read through the guide but once you have understood it the process is quite easy) to do the mods that you like

3) manually edit the file for Unlimited Recent Apps Panels

3) backup the modded files

4) restore the nandroid

5) manually restore the modded files without using the script.

This way you have a clean solution, without any leftovers.

I've also tried the other mods suggested in the guide but in the end I only sticked with those that I mentioned and I'm satisfied with them. :)

ps: dont' know about that Seeder thing. What's that?
[HTC One S] iiigeorgievi:
Seeder - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lcis.seeder&hl=en

Wow, so, did you notice any difference at all with V6 ?
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
Well, the phone was already supersmooth even before. That's the reason why I didn't notice any difference with supercharging the launcher.

But the mods I mentioned before do make a difference: no more the stupid 4 non-htc-apps limit, and unlimited apps (the limit is 8 by default) in the "recently used apps" menu (the right capacitive button menu).

Edit: the Maximum Multitasking does improve the number of processes that the OS leaves open (I've checked with System Tuner). I can't tell of a difference by eye, but indeed it's silly to kill processes if it's not needed.

I never tried that Seeder app but I don't think it's worth it.
[HTC One S] iiigeorgievi:
Its not worth on HTC ONE S, I used Seeder on my Sony Xperia Miro, but that is very cheap phone so ...

Thank you, friend!
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
Well, the mods I did are worth it, imho. If I leave something in my recent apps menu, it means I need it and I don't want it to be swept away.;)

So, I've been looking around, but I still can't find a solution. I cannot mount my sdcard in any way, using TWRP and CWM. Currently my recovery is TWRP. It can connect to PC as a separate storage, I can see everything in My Files, but when I use Link2SD it doesn't mount. I could really use some help as i need to move my large files over to SDcard.

Edit: Now my phone is in bootloop, must've been a factory reset that killed it. I can't connect to Odin as I might've let debugging off. Or on. Either way I can't connect to Odin to reflash. And since I can't mount sdcard, I can't flash through recovery as well. Darn it I screwed up big time.

Sorry for the stupid question - it's been a while that I used my X10 Mini Android phone...

I am trying to revive my phone for my son and just installed newest stock ROM from Sony. Everything works as Sony - expected, however I do not find e.g. the App Kytephone in the store to install. I heard that this app pretty much close down the phone and makes any android phone a great kids phone.

Any help how I can install that app? Any stting or update to marketpalce needed Would updating to any custom ROM might make that App available to install ? Which one is most stable (as my son shouldn't use too many features anyway...)

THANK YOU!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
It needs Android 2.2 or higher, and sony's latest update is 2.1, that's why you can't find it in the store, so upgrading to a custom froyo or gingerbread rom should do the trick :)
