DevilCase looks cool, but very expensive and there are no reviews.

Aluminum Case

They look great, Not to bulky like it was previously mentioned. Yes, they do add size, but it looks good. That particular case, slide in very easily, and the give the phone appearance. Down side to all aluminum cases, they mess with the signal a little. Nothing major, but its passable. good Good case. I have 3 of them.

I had a metal bumper, but with the bumper the connection is very bad.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chief Geek:
I bought the WIT Inc metal bumper off of amazon. It was really nice at first, but quickly lost its appeal. The fit was loose. It would rattle and annoy me after a day or so. And here's the kicker, I actually had a full Skinomi skin on it. Front, back, and all sides...and that thing was still loose. As for finish, well it was beautiful. But form before function is not for me. Lastly the smooth metal edges made my phone want to slide off of anything but a perfectly flat surface. Sounds silly but you would be amazed how easily it starts moving. Arm of my recliner, dash of car, and where.

Thanks for stopping me from buy and try metal bumpers.

You save my money.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chief Geek:
Bumpers are great. Metal is nice and classy. But the two don't mix. Get a nice plastic/ TPU bumper. Right now I'm using docks a lot so I'm going almost all natural with a skin applied and have no problem. I've always been an otter box guy accepting this is difficult. Going out in the world with a phone that's not in a case makes me feel like I'm trying to sneak through a cactus field naked.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmbfan13:
Ever since the 4.3 update, my nexus seems to restart randomly and just sit on Google splash screen. Can't say its repeatable, just random. Usually once a day. At first I thought it had to do with a specific ROM. But its done it on all 4.3 Roms I've tried. Then I thought it had something to do with charging too long. But it's done if off the charger too.

Anyone else experience this?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrPickleFicker:
I have that problem too. Ended up restoring my 4.2.2 backup.

Is there maybe the need to update official firmware to update the bootloader or anything? Don't know where to go from here.

I was using twrp 2.5, going to upgrade to 2.6.2 and see if that makes a difference.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrPickleFicker:
Alright, I fixed my problem. As soon as I updated twrp the problem went away, that would be my suggestion if you haven't.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmbfan13:
I'll have to give it a shot!! Curious why that would make a difference tho...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrPickleFicker:
Maybe made a difference in the flashing of it? That's all I can think of.

I simply cannot get my TF101 to recognize my Sixaxis controller's right analog stick. I've seen this asked before, but as the other thread was nearly a year old, I decided against necroing.

Some potentially relevant info:

Using Sixaxis Controller app with a first-party PS3 Dualshock 3 Sixaxis controller (yes, this tablet has been rooted)

Device Firmware: 9.2.1.27

Android version: 4.0.3

Did anyone ever figure out a way to fix this?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
Hmm, I dont think I had an issue with the right analog stick when I had mine set up. I will check it out when I get back home in a week. I dont have my PS3 controller with me and I am 1/3 of the way around the world from my house right now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chadj77:
I have not had any issues in v27 Katkiss. Also v25 worked fine also for sixaxis app. Its been awhile since I was using ICS but I want to say I had major issues with bluetooth mainly when having wifi enabled. I would upgrade to Katkiss 4.31 since you are already rooted plus you will be blown away by Full HWA in JellyBean and beyond. Good luck!

hello dear dvrlprs. issue regarding cwm recovery of sky 880

hy dear dvrlper. iam having isue on sky vega 880s..my phone is rooted. when i install cwm recover i have acces to visit recovery only once while i install it. when i reboot cell or reboot to recovery it goes to stock recovery. i cant go to cwm 2nd time.. oonly when i install it. never after that. yyy is that happening... i adopt proper procedure
[Android General] Kyonex:
it is Pantech "permanent custom recovery flashing" blocking mechanism. So we can boot only temp recovery (for now). So every time you want to enter CWM you should perform A880_Recovery.bat via PC. Or maybe (I did't try yet) it is possible to boot in CWM via terminal application from your smartphone (you need to have CWM-image on sdcard and write command such as "boot /mnt/.../sdcard1/cwm.img")
[Android General] muzammil457:
problem while instaling

hello dear. i extract this file and put it in ext sd as u said in post.. but this backup is not shown in backup and restor option through cwm recovery. i tried different thing telll me how to instal it.. my set is rooted.
[Android General] Kyonex:
muzammil457,

1. put folder "clockworkmod" (from backup archive) in directory "/mnt/shell/emulated/" or in "/data/media/" (no matters) and try restore backup again

2. if you still can't restore backup you can flash that standalone patch (it does the same fixes, I think): http://www.mediafire.com/download/a6yjssulp82iwcv/Patch_Eng_A880S_S0221133_v1.0_TMT.zip

P.S. and please stop quotting topichead

[Android General] muzammil457:
thanx

Finaly i found that with ur guideness.

Can u tell me how can we found official update on any mobile which is not rooted. For exmple if s4 is on 4.3 that is not rooted.. and its official update comes thorogh ota.. then how can i pick that update. Where is that stored
[Android General] Kyonex:
maybe I don't understand your question, but:

1. root doesn't block notifications of new updates for your smartphone

2. you can check available updates on http://www.pantechservice.co.kr/down/software/main.sky

3. if you update your smartphone via OTA, you lose root and CWM for uncertain time until new ROM will be rooted

4. Where is stored image of update? - developers know, and maybe we can just get "binx" file and repack it to make it "already-rooted", anyway developers and hackers know
[Android General] muzammil457:
I mean to say if i have galaxy s4 it is on 4.3 jb... its official updat 4.4 comes through samsung then how can i pluck that. Is there any possibility to do so..

And when i try to updte my rom through smart update in about phone it crashes...how can i download an update from sky websit..
[Android General] Kyonex:
I think the best way is just wait until developers repack official update to complete ROM, it will has built-in root and you can flash it via CWM. If that ROM already released you need just find it and flash.
[Android General] muzammil457:
I instaled many roms through zip but tell me how can i install rom having .Binx extension. Whats that
[Android General] Kyonex:

Hi,

i'm currently running on the lastest stock ROM and wld like to root and also fix the sms issue.

just some questions to ask.

1. i was tld that rooting method depends on the version of android that is installed, so does the method here works for the lastest stock rom?

2. will the root method wipe out my data?

3. if i run the fix sms method, wld it wipe out everything as in installing a new ROM or is it just like a patch file?

4. after rooting and fixing the sms issue, can i still update the rom thru the official update (thru wifi) and still have the root and sms fix? if not, then how shall i update the rom and still keep the root and fix sms?

thanks for reading
