[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] rayben:
hey! my mother got a O2 XDA(1) from o2. we bought the device from ebay, so dont think, we ripped it some guy off :).

the xda was working perfectly without any problem, till the last 3 days.

after i found out my mother didnt ever used active-sync, i nearly thought all her 300 contacts in this thingy were lost .... the xda showed sporadic flashing of backlight (1sec) and was actually very slow in the menu. it needed 3-5 secs to open start=>programs. i finally made it (after 5 trys) to do a SD-Backup!!!!!1111 :D the created file is about 6.2megs big.

a) is this file loaded full of the contacts + reminds of my mother?

b) any cool prog, i can extract the stuff? (even a img where i can prt-screen to just write em down would be enough for me / export to .txt would be the best :) )

at the moment the device wasnt booting anymore. in the evening it was booting (wallaby bootloader 5.2x i think it was) with an GSM Error. i googled a bit about it and i think the radio stack is broken on my device.

c) is there any way to burn the bootloader back to 5.15 to try a SD-recovery?

d) any other hints that might work to bring the phone back up?

e) "could" it be possible, to disable the radio-part on bootup to access the pda-part at least to retry a active-sync?

some specs i found inside the xda in the working days (2 weeks old now //i was looking for a FW-update, but never found one) :

softwareversion o2v2r4.3

romversion 3.19.01ger - 27.5.03

radioversion 4.21

protokoll 32s54

imei 35031201xxxxxxx

xda modellnr. pw10a1

microsoft pocket pc 3.1.12039(build 11178)

the device is locked to o2-network, but that shouldnt be a problem for my mother or me, we're both at o2.

perhaps someone could help me with my 5 lil questions (a-e) ?? :)

TY!!! john

Hi everybody. My phone is rooted and last night, I've try to install the google edition rom and after, I've got a bootloop. Before install the rom, I made a nandroid backup so I was be able to restore. But the problem is when I reboot my phone, he get stuck at boot logo so I have to wipe data and do a factory reset before do another restore. He made that all the time when I reboot.

What I can do for that

Greetings,

Recently I have got a cordless phone from japan which run the android system.

My problem is that I can't get the caller ID even I have used the EX900 to convert the format from Hong Kong (Bellcore FSK) to Jap standard (JT FSK).

Could I know if there is any other way I can get this function back on?

Could I also know if anybody have rooted this device already?

Thank you very much in advance

8 months after they announced it, we finally see what the case looks like.

It's going to be a screen-protector-free nuud case and is expected to be shipping in July for $89.99.

EDIT:

There will be both this nuud and also a with-screen-protector fre case available and both are now showing up in their store, though not available yet.

How is no screen protector? Is it waterproof?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ptaylor09:
Yes, It has an o ring that sits on the screen to seal it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
Wow thats interesting and sketchy.

Very interesting indeed. Will be difficult to test for leaks before installing on the phone. :confused:

got it now they send a panel to put in the case to test it .
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
I wonder if anything not from factory would jeopardize the seal. Like the zerolemon 2300mah batt or an aftermarket back cover. Since the ZL adds a slight bump the the back of the phone.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] adkz:
It looks much better then otterbox armor, plus the back and manu button is more practical then armor. Dont mind buying if it is less bulky then armor lol
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
That looks way better than I thought it would, much nicer than the fake eBay cases. It looks like they took the front off a seidio obex, and the back looks really cool. Wish the picture had a white phone in it. This might be enough to get me to sell my obex.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] H Dean:
Looks a bit big - and I am not sure about a case that costs so much. I have a Vertex case and it seems to do the trick - though I do tend to avoid taking dips in water.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jason4962:
how would this deal with heat issues. since no air goes in and out if ones phone overheats and heat does not escape . would it mean its your screwed?

[Galaxy S III Accessories] RahRah61:
Wow finally..I've been anticipating this forever
[Galaxy S III Accessories] deedscreen:
Well we all said that the Galaxy S4 would be out before this got out...

So that just goes to show that all of the Lifeproof cases on eBay are complete nonsense so far.

The interesting thing is that OtterBox owns Lifeproof. Yes folks who think I've lost my mind, they acquired them a few month ago. Press Release here.

For people that knew that, oh well...

But are we going to see OtterBox LifeProof Nuud Actives or something strange?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] compro01:
They use the same design for their iPad cases.

They've also released a new iPhone 5 case on this design.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jfree3000:
I'm wondering if all those Chinese cases were prototypes that got "taken" from the assembly line or they just released them since they have an actual case out now. The knockoffs had "patent pending" on them.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] danvee:
Or, more likely, someone got hold of the molds, or, there were a few 'after hours' production runs made at the factory.

Not unusual at all in the toy molding business, so I don't think that this would be any different.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] _Epic:
The knockoffs look like the iPhone LifeProof. The real LifeProof is the nuud or however you spell it which is different and has no built in screen protector.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rick james b1tch:
I work in a very dusty environment with very fine dust and the case keeps the dust out very well.

Thanks for the input, I work in a similar environment.

This will really help me make my decision.

Thanks!

Well...I unexpectedly got to test my nuud today with the phone in it. Feel into one of the pools I was servicing. The case kept the water out as one would expect.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] joerolando2701:
Anyone getting a rainbow effect on the fre case where the screen protector comes in contact with the phone screen?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Patwinone:
Are you guys sure that they're coming out with the nuud case? On their website it states that they're coming out with a fre case which has a built in screen protector.

At least there's been a change on their website but you still have to dig for it. They've been saying coming soon for almost as long as the s3 has been out so until it ACTUALLY releases, I call BS.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] CrackerTeg:
Well, after my previous post, I gave LifeProof a call. After sitting on hold for over 20 minutes before actually getting a living, breathing human being, I was informed that Best Buy will have first crack at BOTH cases (fre and nuud) as soon as July 7th. I have no idea when online retailers will have it but it seems Best Buy has some kind of exclusivity deal going.

So theres 2 versions, the Fre and Nüüd im guessing fre has screen protector?

That's correct. The only difference between them is the screen protector and the nuud has a semi clear back. Both halves are interchangeable.

Which ill be better ... nuud or fre ? Bcs with screen protector screen have a protector .. lol :) and that mean shock prof works better also screech/dirt/fingerprints resist. yes - no - maybe ?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
I've used my wife's lifeproof fre and while the screen protector is very good you can still feel a little space between the screen and the phone. If the s3 version is the same as the iPhone version it will have a dry install screen protector bundled with the case that you put on after the phone is in the case.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] edthesped:
Can a standard screen protector be used with the Nuud? It would be even better if I could use a glass one with it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
I'm guessing not because lifeproof tells you to install the case first and then put the screen protector on. I think the tolerances are so close that anything will interfere with the case waterproofing.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] bitpie:
I saw one test on YT when guy said if somebody want to use owne screen protecor then have to cut in lifeproof shape to not make bulky case edge. That mean your screen cant be under lifeproof case.

here is the video http://goo.gl/WHcWw
[Galaxy S III Accessories] compro01:
They sell Zagg invisible shield screen protectors for use with the iPad nuud case.

That would seem to suggest that screen protectors will work with the nuud cases, unless this one for the iPad is some kind of custom one specifically for use with their cases.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
Im tempted on buying this case.. Who's the brave soul thats going to test and review this first?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cuban11182:
I'm waiting to see what people say as I have the Otterbox Armor currently. If people say its better, I'll switch.:good:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ihugyou:
The seidio waterproof case has been out for a while. I have one but I also have a seidio case that is less clunky for use at work. These waterproof cases block the sound too much and cause strange vibrations.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] CrackerTeg:
I'm probably grabbing the fre so I have no problem testing.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
IMO the armor is WAY bigger and bulkier than either the seidio or lifeproof. If you look at their measurements the lifeproof is the least bulky of the 3. I have the obex and really like it but its really, really finicky as far as installing the phone, if its off just a little it destroys the sound. My wife's lifeproof fre has never had any issues at all, she sounds fine on my end and she can hear clearly on her end. My preordered bestbuy nuud case is supposed to be ready on the 17th but I don't know if that means its being delivered then or if its being shipped then. Whenever I get it ill post up some pictures.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] smoothiex:
Ordered the fre (without protector) I will post pics and review to.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
The nüüd is the one without screen protector
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
Yeah, sorry but if you ordered the fre you got the one WITH the scren protector. The nuud is the one with no protector.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Bruce Lee:
I have both the otter box armor and the sedio and the screen sensitivity is way better on the armor than the sedio. But call quality talking is better on the sedio. You can counter that with pulling out the charger port cover when talking and people can hear you on the armor. Then case is a beast and the waterproofing works, took it in the sprinklers with my little cousins. Lol. drop and crush proof is a lovely touch too.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] STP03bluesi:
The best buy i work at got both cases in. The nuud and non. 79, and 89 each. Might try and get the nuud one.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Rebelwithoutacause:
Would this case work with the OEM extended battery from Samsung?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
Onky if it uses the same stock back. If it needs a new back it wont fit.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] CrackerTeg:
Just picked up my fre at best buy. I gotta say, this is an extremely tight fitting case. That's a good thing btw. Best buy doesn't have it on the shelves (at least not in my area) but they do have it in stock. I feel much more confident in this case than the Chinese fake.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
Hows the sound? In call and speaker. Any pics?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] CrackerTeg:
In call sound is good. Speaker is slightly muffled but I boosted it slightly thanks to the faux sound patch in the kernel I'm running. And I have no pics. The back is clear just like the nuud. I can't see the point of paying more money for the nuud if the only difference is no screen protector. I'm pleased with this case. Also, overall thickness is about the same as the UAG.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] planoman:
I have not installed the lifeproof case on my wife phone yet as she is at work. Is this something you can easily take on and off? My wife will keep it on her S3 but on my S4 I like to switch cases and swap SIM's with other phones. Will this be a hassle with this case? I just leave it on my iphone since I do not swap that SIM out (Different account for work) but it is no issue to take on and off. I guess I will need to decide once the 4 model comes out.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] CrackerTeg:
If you always have keys or change in your pocket, it's fairly easy to remove. Be aware, it is a TIGHT fit when you snap it together.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Casutherland42:
I got my Lifeproof nuud yesterday. The best buy close to Nashville,TN, where i live, accidentally put the cases out too early haha. I can personally say that it is probably one of the best built cases that I have ever bought, and also THE most expensive case that I have ever bought. I had to convince myself that I LOVED my Galaxy S3 and that it would be worth it in the long run haha. One thing that I did notice about the case is that it is amazingly difficult to put on, and even harder to get off. Also, a HUGE plus with the case is that you can keep any screen protector on the phone that you want and it will still fit nice and snug. It also comes with an optional crappy screen protector that is cut specifically to fit the edges of the screen around the case. I also did some tests as well on the phone, and it is in fact very waterproof. Did not get an ounce, speck, or slight drop of water on the case. The biggest issue for me is getting dust on the screen and the possibility of scratching up your camera since it is open. I do landscaping and that is a minor issue for me. Not going to make me go back and get the "Fre", but it did sort of bother me slightly. The buttons are nice and easy to press and overall the volume on the phone can be heard very clearly when talking on the phone. People can also hear you very well when you are speaking. That was a HUGE problem for me when I bought the Otterbox Armor. No one could ever hear me, and I could barely ever hear anyone else. The biggest plus that I came across with the case is that it is VERY slim for a waterproof case, and it seems extremely easy to hold. All features on the phone are working with the case, and I haven't noticed any loss of bars on 4g LTE.

Overall, I give this case a HUGE A+ and very well done. I am glad that Lifeproof took their time to come out with this case, because they did a wonderful job. It meets just about every criteria that I look for in a good case. It looks sleek, repels dust, water, and snow/sand, and it is easy to use overall!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
wow. sounds like this case is a must lol. So, its sealed even with a stick on screen protector? any screen protector will still work and be waterproof?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Casutherland42:
Yup, as far as I am concerned and was told at best buy. Plus from my tests, it seems to have held true so far. I am using the Spigen SGP curves crystal screen protector that takes up the entire screen and it is still suctioned around the edges very tight.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
thats nice.. how about speaker loudness? does it sound muffled badly?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Casutherland42:
The speaker might be the worst part of the entire phone. Personally for me, I use headphone a lot and never really use the speaker much at all unless im watching a video. It doesn't sound terribly muffled, but there is definitely a minor muffle to it. If you have it turned all the way up, it vibrates the back of the case slightly, but if you have it at a reasonable volume, it sounds pretty clear.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
Bummer, i use the speaker often for videos and some calls.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] planoman:
Here is a picture of the Fre case (with built in screen protector) on my wife's S3 next to my S4. It is a bit bigger than I was expecting and certainly larger in comparison to the device size than the iphone 5 Fre case. Although quite manageable for the features and protection it provides.

I tested it under water for 30 minutes without the phone, like they recommend. The case certainty makes the phone look like it is well protected. My wife thinks it is a bit to bulky for everyday use. But since we are headed to the beach for vacation this week she says she likes it for that and when we come back may go back to her seidio surface. Since the beach has sand (which gets everywhere) I opted for the Fre model. Not too sure I would get the Nuud and have two o rings to deal with...The Fre does dull the screen a bit but it is good to know the screen protected.

Would have liked it to be a bit more form fitting like the iphone 5 case and also would have liked the back made of rubbery material instead of clear hard plastic. I might go with the Seidio OBEX for my S4 due to the back of the Lifeproof, depending on size and bulk.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
Still looks smaller than the obex or armor. I'm annoyed with bestbuy, I preordered mine and still have no idea when it'll be delivered, if I'd just waited I could have had it today.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] CrackerTeg:
It is worlds smaller than the obex. That case was far too bulky for my taste.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Casutherland42:
Ive owned the Otterbox armor, the element case and many many others and this is HANDS DOWN the best case I have owned. It is everything I would ask for in a case..
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
didnt notice it was clear on the back side.. must look nice on a white gs3
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
I decided to just go to the store and buy one today, I'll return the one I get in the mail for a refund. My initial impressions are that this is by far the best case I've ever had on the s3. It's much slimmer than the obex and doesn't feel like I'm holding a brick, and not having a screen in between my finger and the s3 is immediately noticeable and very nice. The Obex's screen protector is very good, but still not as good as no protector at all. The front half is plastic and the back half is rubberized so when I put it down it won't slide anywhere, the obex is the opposite. It's a VERY tight fit so I'm surprised a screen protector would fit underneath the case, either that or I just got a very tight case. I can't see having to take it off but if/when I do it's going to be pretty difficult as it took a lot of effort to get the 2 halves snapped together. Overall I'm very satisfied with paying the money for it, if you plan on keeping your s3 or if you have an iphone and want a good case I'd definitely get this, now my wife and I are both Lifeproof!

Here are a couple pictures of my phone in the case, please excuse the quality as I had to use my ipad to take them:
