I was searching fora good screen protector for the phone... Xperia z ultra need one for front and back.. but could not find one... ordered one tampered glass screen protector from ebay and waiting for its delivery. then i found this campaign a coating that make phone scratch resistant. we can apply it on front and back.. It costs 20 to 25 dollars only..Here is what they have to say............

So what is Liquid Sapphire and how does it work ?

Liquid Sapphire is a DIY coating that stops your phone, tablet or any touch screen from getting scratched, ditch your old plastic shield protector and get the full clarity of your screen using liquid sapphire, it’s invisible, contains man-made liquid sapphire which is second only to diamonds in hardness. Liquid Sapphire is a one time Nanotechnology application and does not need to be topped up.

Liquid Sapphire improves the clarity of your screen, the effect is caused by the Sapphires in liquid which will be a technology used in all touch screen devices over the years to come.

Specifications

Works with any touchscreen device and camera lenses.

Scratch resistant & waterproof.

Life Span : Permanent, Cannot be removed .(It can only be removed by commercial polishing or commercial acid, e.g. hydrochloric acid.)

Invisible coating

External Coating : Yes

Internal Coating : No

Shelf Life : 18 months from opening

Non Toxic

Non Hazardous.

Liquid Amour is a lacquer, Liquid Sapphire is a invisible coating that contains Sapphire. Auto Glass coatings will be waterbased and are no where near in the same league, to coat it with Liquid Sapphire would cost more than the glass even at cost !

Sapphire is second to diamonds in the scale of hardness in natural mineral stones.

Transparency and hardness Sapphire is not only highly transparent to wavelengths of light between 150 nm (UV) and 5500 nm (IR) (the human eye can discern wavelengths from about 380 nm to 750 nm[37]), but is also extraordinarily scratch-resistant. Sapphire has a value of 9 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness.

Hardness Example 10 diamond 9 sapphire 8 beryl 7.5 garnet 6.5-7.5 steel file 7.0 quartz (amethyst, citrine, agate) 6 feldspar (spectrolite) 5.5-6.5 most glass 5 apatite 4 fluorite 3 calcite, a penny 2.5 fingernail 2 gypsum 1 talc

Non Toxic ?!?? no I will not buy it

:P
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
If the OP buys one and succeed to apply this with good results.. I might.... perhaps, give it a thought :rolleyes::D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] luisarn:
I would like to know if I change my mind after applying the coating... how do I remove it? :confused:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
It says permanent on the website, It's the part that worries me quite a lot..what if it turns out to look like crap after 24h??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jos_031:
It can only be removed by commercial polishing or commercial acid, e.g. hydrochloric acid.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] wase4711:
better to just get a skin of some sort, so it comes off easy if you hate it..
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] epulrevo:
Maybe can apply on screen protector? So it can be easily to remove.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
.... well that's a waste of money if the residue even stick to it

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jutley:
You guys do know that the ultra is already coated front and back in a adhesive like skin coating that can be removed when phone is looking scratched etc.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
yep I have already ordered a Benks magic HSR screen protector to replace this crap SONY applied when being manufactured.

And as an extra bonus, I also get rid of the SONY logo :victory:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kramnod:
I think this is great once you remove the ASF at the back because its gonna coat the glass at the back... But the problem is the front, I think that this will only be beneficial if applied directly to the glass but not with our ASF since its technically just a film and not as solid as glass below it... So you'll have to remove the front ASF to get the full benefits of this nanotech liquid screen protector
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] b22ri22an:
Says right on his site under application guide

"Liquid sapphire does not work on plastic or metal"

wont work on our phone unless we remove the ASF

Website ordering error

Went to their website to order a bottle but I keep getting this error when I try to purchase: ERROR CODE:PE102. I sent them an email. Gonna stick it in our lab's Gas Chromatograph to see what it's made of. I suspect it's not actually "Sapphire" because liquefying and chemically bonding sapphire by cold chemical application is impossible. more than likely it's some kind of cold glass tempering chemical, similar to Sodium Nitrate/ Potassium Nitrate bath but without the need for the heating process.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
Scammer [update]

I just want to give you guys an update on what has happened and what has not happened. Well ...its May 13th 2014 and no parcel has arrived.

Just look at all these comments

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/liquid-sapphire-scratch-resistant-touch-screens#comments

Steve or whatever OP's name is has totally given up on deleting negative comments, before these comments disappeared and was removed by the OP.

And looking through the comments its now reported that the email address is bouncing back for some people.

I see a very common patten in a scammers method of working. Looking at the comments you see just a few customers reporting that they received their products which is a common strategy to overcome the suspicions that other people might get so that the worries would be dampened and there wouldn't be a huge file for investigation about the campaign and/or the person.

To tell you I will not be surprised if someone will quote this post claiming to be representing the Nanostate company. And I can't even find any information about this so called Nanostate company

Looking at this video in the information it says:

[youtube]8ah5U5bHK3Q[/youtube]

Nanostate launched Liquid Sapphire the liquid scratch proof LCD Coating For Mobile Phone & Tablets. Liquid Sapphire is an invisible premium nanotechnology scratch resistant & waterproof coating that stops your phone or tablet screen from getting scratched.

Get more details about Liquid Sapphire : http://www.nanostate.co/

Find us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/nano_state

and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NANOSTATE

In the video description it refers to http://www.nanostate.co/

But searching on google I find this site http://www.nanostate.co.uk/

If I try to look up information about this so called Nanostate business I get up only one search result on a business registered in December 2013.. way later than the campaign ended in October 2013.

I can just say.

My opinion is that I call this business so called "Nanostate" aka Steve Mich a scammer!

eh well I lost 25 bucks ..its no biggie.. but f*ck this guy and f*uck his f*cking business.

Hi all,

After rooting and flashing cwm with NVFLASh, my phone goes to a black screen just after LG logo and only battery pull makes it off. If I turn it on, same **** happens. I am on stock 2.3 and I also flashed stock partition table with nvflash (512mb SYSTEM). Don't know what to do...:crying

P.S: I have also flashed it with a package in which recovery and system imaged were present and I had to run flash.bat

Please help ASAP!!!

Hallo,

i have an old MDA, and I have decided to upgrade it on WM2003. I have downloaded an oficial Update from Telekom Web page and have successfuly (= without Error Messages) installed it. Then, i have found, that Telefon in MDA doesn't work. There is an Icon of Antenne with a "!" sign and Diagnostic "No Service" ("Kein Dienst" in German), Telefon settings also can not be opened.

Bootloader shows, that GSM OK, does all of the Tests successfully.

I have tried to make the same Update with OSImageTool, but with same result.

Is there any tool, to diagnose, why it does not work???

WHAT CAN I DO???

I have tried to install an older System (3.19). Tha same effect, but also doesn't work ActiveSync. After installing a newer System, ActiveSync has worked, but Telefon is again unusable.

HEEEEELP!!!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] LumpiStefan:
What is shown, when you "boot up" your MDA?

There should be 3 lines at the Bottom like

R xxxxxxxx

G xxxxxxxx

U xxxxxxxx

What is your model id (Label on the back) Could be PW10A or PW10B....

Stefan
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Alexpuh:
It is PW10A2.

The numbers on boot screen are...

Now: 4.01.19 R.3.23.00 G32S54

Update:

I have Radio on 3.23.11 updated (still not working)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Alexpuh:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It WORKS!!! In Bootloader menu i have called "GSM 900/1800" and "GSM ON", now Telefon works! I had a super weekend!!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] LumpiStefan:
Have you installed previously an english WM2003? Setting the band to 1900 is an common problem for the T-Mobile WM2003 ROM of the US (eg. 4.01.16)

Stefan
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Alexpuh:
No, the only thing I have done, I have installed an Update from Telekom webpage (t-mobile.de/mda/software)... Later I have installed also only German versions. Though, I had no Idea, that Band could be changed.

CF Auto Root Via Odin

Why? Tried and tested method, simple to use. No need to choose what exploit you want to use as it's tailored for your device.

What does it do? It gives you a stock recovery (so can't flash things) and roots the Android OS

The Steps:

1) Download the Latest Odin

2) Download CF-Auto-Root for your model

3) Follow These steps to root

Post questions by all means but if someone tells you to read a thread (which just happens they'd wrote and spent lots of time on) DON'T read a different thread then complain that the original thread (that you didn't even read) is out of date.

Yes, I call myself an RC. So does xda. I have a right to help people without them criticising my thread as being out-of-date when they couldn't even follow the information to get to the correct thread in the first place.

I especially do not then expect these people to come back and question ME!

People who don't follow instructions properly are dangerous and often end up with a bricked device, like you could have done today! So if I tell you to read a specific thread, I expect you to have the sense to actually read it and follow it correctly and not to read a different thread then complain to me that its out of date! ok?

I just like to help others. Pretty much all of the "thanks" I get is from helping others out. Iv met some really nice friends on here some Rc some not.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jj14:
If your photos were stored on external memory card, you could mount that onto a computer, and try to recover files using any of the widely available file recovery utilities (just search the web, and pick one from a reputable company - I haven't had to use one yet, so can't make a recommendation).

For future, enable auto-backup/upload using dropbox or google plus or any of the other options - that way, your photos get backed up without you having to do anything.

Hi all,

My Sensation XE was recently dropped from a fair height, and now it is demonstrating multiple issues:

- Screen has a small buldge in upper left corner,

- Wifi does not turn on,

- Bluetooth does not turn on,

- The memory card cant be read,

- The casing got damaged.

I replaced the battery back cover with a used one from eBay this week, so that was a quick fix.

My wifi and bluetooth were still not turning on. So I thought I may as well restore the firmware to fix it.

After booting up in 4EXT Recovery Touch (ver1.0.0.3 beta 8), I formatted the system and data folder and then tried to restore it.

But now it wont boot into anything. I believe I have formatted my ROM by mistake and now it wont boot.

I can go to Recovery mode, but nothing from there.

Please guide me diagnose and restore my phone...
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
did you make a nandroid backup from recovery before formatted system and data folder?

if not you should

now flash again the rom
[HTC Sensation] bym007:
No, I did not make a backup.

How can I make a backup now that my phone is not booting up and stuck on Sensation splash screen.

I can go into Bootloader/recovery screens though.

Secondly I cant mount or read from the SD card either.

Kindly suggest alternatives.. Cheers.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
use a ruu.exe

[HTC Sensation] bym007:
I am downloading all the files required for RUU from my laptop.

regarding the SD Card, I cant mount it in the Recovery Mode, however, when I connect it to the laptop in Recovery Mode and toggle USB connection menu, the SD card mounts in the laptop, as USB drive. I confirmed by copying and removing stuff on it.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
since you can't mount the sdcard from recovery then the nandroid is useless

your only option is the ruu.exe

does your sdcard fits correctly in its case?

maybe that's why you can't mount it after dropping
