[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xp500:
Hello,

I got a new note 2 today , I rooted it with cf-auto-root-tolte. the root installed and when i check it with a root checker it says rooted. So then i restart the phone like im going to install a custom os and it takes me to the factory os. How do i bypass this to install a custom rom?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yes_:
If that's a custom rom it probably already has root, and anyway, the new rom can't inherit root. What you need to do is to flash a custom recovery which allows installing zip. Then flash the rom zip from the recovery.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xp500:
i used cf-auto root from there website . it installs with the red android screen then reboots. then when i try to install anything from sd card like i would to install anything else it then takes me to factory android wipe, clear cache , ect screen

Hey guys, I have done a factory reset on my lg p920 after which the phone

only boots into the recovery. So this means I have no way to enter my phone again.

I have tried to reflash the kdz but I can't get my phone back into emergency mode.

So the only options I have now with my phone are holding the 3d , down volume and power button and choose between

- flashboot

- recovery

- normal

So is there a way to recover this brick and get back to ics ?

Thanks in advance guys
[LG Optimus 3D] oblivion786:
if you can get into fast boot you can flash one of xbsall's ics images for o3d this should then let you flash his ics rom using the all in one tool in the development section. this should fix it and then you can install whatever you want after

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
While I think it´s a great idea to have a tempered glass screen protector so we can have a nice protection against drops (I once broke my S3 screen in a pretty small and stupid fall) and scracthes I refuse to pay the 25 to 35 dollars the brands like spigen are asking for a mere screen protector.

So, suggested by another forum user, I ordered this screen protector, ther seller shipped it in the 21th so I should be getting it in a couple of weeks...

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/NEW-Arrival-Explosion-proof-Tempered-Glass-Film-Screen-Protector-for-Samsung-Galaxy-S4-i9500-free-shipping/1083548820.html

For the price it looks great...Anyone ever tried it yet and can give an opinion?

Will review it when it gets here, of course.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lambstone:
For that price, I must say you can't do any better.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Yeah, I believe so. I would like to know the opinion of someone who bought this one or something similar on ebay...chinese, unbranded and cheap ;)

Do you have a glass screen protector?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] poqeteer:
For the price it is tempting... It's a throw away if it isn't any good.

Little strange though, when I went to the link, it popped up a dialog asking my language (English wasn't a choice) and a list of countries they ship to (US wasn't one). I know it's a Chinese company, the sites in English, and I think they ship to the US, but that's weird.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vesu:
I bought similar protector from ebay, it was ~10$ from china. It has been awesome protector and after month of using it, zero scratches! Only cons I give from way too wide cutout on top and open cutout below the home button. Otherwise it's very good protector. And yeah the jelly buttons that it came with was rubish.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Thanks for your input :)

So there is no need to use the jelly buttons, the home button is easily accessible? Was is easy to apply? How thick was yours... 0,5mm? If you can please post the link for the deal or some photos.

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vesu:
Actually there is no use for jelly buttons because of that cutout at the bottom, but I will install one when I get my spigen case. It was super easy to apply, no bubbles. It claimed to be 0,4mm but I didnt measure the real thickness. The box said GTG meaning gold tempered glass.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/330938625131

I will add some photos tomorrow if I remember. :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Thanks. :) it looks the same as my deal, from looking at the photos. Glad you liked it
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] SoulSmasher:
Woah!

The price is awesome!

If anyone has this piece, I'd love to hear some more feedback.

Also some photos would be great. How thick are these?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Which one, the aliexpress or the eBay deal?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] SoulSmasher:
I'd love to hear from both. Maybe the one another is better I guess?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Regarding the eBay one the user vesu is using it for a month now and can enlight you. As for the aliexpress one the seller shipped it the 21st so I believe I will receive it in a week or so. Can't wait to put it to go with my original Spigen Slim Armor View case in matte black.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] SoulSmasher:
Damn! I also ordered a genuine Spigen Slim armor View, can't wait for your feedback already :laugh:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
The case is freaking great, the best I ever used regarding looks, protection and functionality although I believe spigen is reaping us of asking such a high price.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kingable:
Does it come with jelly home button?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
No. But there is an alternative deal on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/330938625131 that does come with Jelly Buttons but users who have bougth it say they suck and are not really needed.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lunarken:
i'm using the china brand glass.... its gd.. really no scratches, i even tried to scratch it with a pen knife..

the price is so cheap that i bought quite afew.. installed wrongly = throw... lolz

easily wipe off the oil...

but any of the owners here experiencing glass burn on ur finger?

like when playing game, ur thumb/finger keep sliding on the glass till it hurts...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Jimmy2u:
The price figure is really very cool....would love to purchase some for me too...just do post the reviews and the pics when u receive it because I have not used any chinese screen protector ever...so review is important
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vesu:
Here is some pics of my ebay screenprotector. Like I said, very good but I'd prefer closed cutout below home button and in my opinion upper cutout should cover everything else but speaker. Otherwise its VERY good for the price. I've been using it for a month now and it's still in mint condition (no chips or scratches). Since I got it perfectly allinged to center, lm not taking it off unless it breaks. :good:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Thanks a lot for the photos, M8! I actually prefer that it dosent cover any sensor nor the camera because it can somehow affect they way they work or picture quality. Do you believe the one I ordered is like the one you got, from looking at the seller´s pictures?

One last question: I will be using it with the Spigen Slim Armor View case (best case ever, check it out also). Do you use it with a case also?

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vesu:
It looks similar, so I guess its almost the same.

I am using nillkin hard back case for now cuz my cruzerlite xda case didnt fit. My spigen slim armor(not view) is on the way, so soon Im using that once it arrives. :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Nice. :) Please let me know how it worked with the Slim Armor when you receive it.

One thing I am worried though is if with my Slim Armor VIEW case answering calls with the front cover closed (swiping through the front translucid opening) wont work properly, because of the thickness of the glass...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] spector711:
How does this compare to the TechArmor ones on Amazon?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Have you read the thread?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] spector711:
Yep, didn't see any comparison to that particular one. As it's one of the cheaper ones available, I thought it was relevant.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
I got one off of eBay for $10. I must say I do love it. Its is .04mm thick and it has worked great, for the most part. But the glass covers all the sensors which causes my phone to not shut the screen off when I'm on a phone call. I have to shut it off manually with the lock button. Also mines has already cracked in the corner and the crack extended from the corner to the top middle of the screen. But this is when I put on my Otterbox Defender, I guess the pressure of the case clipping together eventually caused it to start cracking. No big deal. I sure am glad I didn't spend $30 on an SGP glass screen protector because I've been happy with my $10 screen protector

---------- Post added at 11:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 PM ----------

Yea I agree that the home button area should be closed but I got one that covers everything but the speaker and my screen won't turn off during a phone call unless I hit the lock button. And I got it perfectly aligned too
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] SoulSmasher:
I've found even cheaper on eBay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/400562645224

US $5.34

Not packed, but in bubble wrap.

How good is the "boxed" ones' packaging by the way? Does the box actually protect the glass or is it something like a paper? Did it come with a bubble wrap?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Stealyourface:
Does everything else work though? Like air view features and such.

I believe this is an unboxing for one like jay posted above. Or at least comparable. Looks similar to the spigen packaging imo.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NITZP6dn-r8
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vesu:
I dont remember if it was bubble wrapped but box offered good protection, from what I've seen in youtube, it looks similar to spigens box.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Thank you both for that links. I hope you can give us your feedback once you order one also ;)

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] SoulSmasher:
Purchased that $5.34 glass protector yesterday. It will take a couple of weeks, but once I receive it I'll post some photos and provide a tiny review.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Alright, nice to hear that. I hope that the one I ordered from AliExpress dosent cover the camera and sensors at all. I prefer not having that silver part protected to having the screen protector mess with how the sensors behave.

Anyone out there using glass screen protector AND the spigen Slim Armor View case?

Should have received mine already, can't wait also. Hope it arrives quickly...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vesu:
I received my spigen slim armor a few days ago and I'd say it fits perfectly with my cheap ebay protector. There is something like 0.5mm between case and screenprotector. Lip is minimal but thats fine with me, less protection but easier to swipe from the edges. Best case+screenprotector combo I've ever had.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Thanks for that info :)

I have a Slim Armor View so I hope it works well with mine also. What about your home button?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vesu:
Home button worked well without jellybutton but I installed one that came with slim armor.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] thrgk:
Is it worth trusinf a $400 phone with a $7 screen protector? I've never used one of these but I know I love my siedio on my note 2. I'm just skeptical but might be worth a try.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
I will tell you first handed when mine arrived but I believe some of the branded ones are way over priced. I mean, 35 bucks for a screen protector?!

I just realized it arrived today to my country, it wont be long till I get it :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jlrogers:
Bought a $5 one from eBay that was posted on one of the first couple of pages. I was still using the plastic one that came one the phone. So far, so good....installation was easier than plastic ones, had to work out some air bubbles. It's like not wearing a condom! Can't comment on durability yet but will post later...

---------- Post added at 12:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 AM ----------

Wasn't packaged in bubble wrap, but came in a sealed box with a micro fiber towel, wipe, and squeegee...

Looks pretty good. Will install it when I get home, will do a mini review as I promised.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eden66:

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
I finally applied it after a long hot shower and I was able to apply it without dust. It's great! Only thing I don't like is because it's 0,4mm thick and I use the spigen Slim Armor View case and almost don't have a lip now. But because I am careful not to put the phone upside down without having the front cover closed I guess that's not a problem.

I advice everyone else to get it, for 6.85 bucks there is nothing like it.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] poqeteer:
So did you ever get the cover?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] SoulSmasher:
Not yet. I suspect there's been an eid in my country for about a week last week, so I guess delay is due to that. I'm still waiting though..
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] PharmNerd:
Just got the screen protector listed in the OP. Surprisingly good quality. The cutout for the button is a hole, and not a notch as shown on some of the photos on the product page (which I'd say is a good thing). My only gripe is that it had the round jelly button stickers for the iPhone included instead of the S4.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] deepsaha007:
got the screen protector few days back and all I can say its really awesome.. Used for more than 3 weeks .. And till now no scratches at all also applying was damn easy than the plastic ones and at first there was few air bubbles which eventually got removed after 1 day itself..

Only the thing I was worried was about its screen smoothness , which is also getting smoother day by day...And its not good with finger prints...But I guess its 100% worth its price and u cant get anything better at that price
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Did you applied them? I left it without, the home button is a deeper but I got used to it quickly.

Great, I am glad you liked it. Makes me think how much money Spigen and the other brands put in their pockets by charging us 30 bucks a piece. I just orderd one for my wife´s Note 2 and got the one with the "Perfect" branding but its exactly the same quality. 5 bucks only as well. :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] PharmNerd:
Couldn't apply the button because they gave me the round button meant for an iPhone. My thumb is already sore from pushing the home button through the hole in the glass (the edges of the glass aren't rounded), so I ordered an aluminum home button sticker off eBay.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] deepsaha007:
Actually I had also got 1 named Perfect branding... Ebay ones are not shipped in India so had to buy from Ali express. ..

Btw u have any suggestions for stylus.. One stylus I got from china is somewhat not good , the bottom is too fat with air inside and makes it difficult to write things with it.. any small size tip stylus is available for s4 ? If yes then please post link Which support to be shipped in India
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
How much did it cost? Have you received it yet?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] PharmNerd:

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mohaimed:
i am planning to buy infinite guard screen protector. does it really work?i have seen videos hammering the s4 or dropping it from a big height and not a single crack. is it really that strong? not a fan of cases
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
Don't know, never used it. It's a plastic screen protector, though, and this thread is about glass ones. But to me it's pretty obvious that a tempered glass screen protector is more protective than that plastic one. I don't understand why people prefer plastic ones when the price of the glass ones is already at only 5 bucks each. Glass feels much better... It's glass ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mohaimed:
Will it protect my phone completely if I dont use any covers?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Badelhas:
No. It's a SCREEN protector, therefore, it will only protect the screen. For full protection take a look at the spigen Slim Armor View case
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] therobzilla:
I just got mine today, quite a wait, but for the money it was worth it..

Installed perfect the first time, no bubbles no dust. The screen feel is just like factory, and they did send the wrong home button stick ons, they sent for IPhone.

Have to say this was money well spent on this protection.

Oh and if your wondering if it works with the UAG case, it does and you can't tell it's even on it unless you look at the top of the case.

I'm happy!

Don't forget all glass will scratch, but at the very low price you can't really complaint, at least they are better, and provide better protection than the plastic one's.
