Ok I know everybody has been reviewing the LOVE MEI metal bumper

and people love it. Personally I give it a 2/5 rating and thought it was not worth it at all. Sorry I am not the best reviewer, I am only doing this because I'm bored and studying for an exam lol. Needed a quick break :good:

Ok let's get started.

I found an even better bumper for the same price, which is a better quality metal bumper and protects the front a lot better. When I tried the Love mei bumper, it felt like a really cheap bumper and didn't give me an impression that it would protect my Z1 (it also was wiggling around until you put some paper or something) This bumper also does not wiggle around, compared to the Love mei. It has rubber little mats inside to protect it from getting scratched from the metal (I cringed when I heard scratching noises when trying on my love mei, this case didn't scratch it.

Basically this bumper is about the same as the Love mei but protects it a lot better, gives access to all the needed ports or buttons. Unfortunately you have to dig deep if you want to press the volume and power buttons (same as Love mei bumper)

For the magnetic charging you can cut out the top rubber of your magnetic charger so the charger can fit and you won't have to remove the phone out of the case like how you used to. Of course I tried this with my generic magnetic charger first before doing it on an official one it came with.

Here's the link and some pictures. As you can see, it is charging :laugh: Please practice on a cheap magnetic charger before cutting your original charger, I am not responsible if you break it. It worked for me and I was just careful with my xacto knife

This is what you have to do to the magnetic charger
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] One Twelve:
Agree it looks better than the love mei. Just wish they have provided some rubber buttons so you did not need to dig for those buttons, i can see that getting old after a bit. So how comfortable is to hold. Not as nice as naked i suppose. The quest for a better, more comfortable bumper continues.

By the looks of it the bumper raises the screen & back just a bit so it will not scratch when placed on a table.

Did you consider to use screen protectors for back & front. I think that would complete it. I like how you have a wrist strap at the end. The lanyard provision is unique to japanese phones.

Just saw this what do you think ?

【Metal-Slim】Sony Xperia Z1 Bumper frame

No digging for volume buttons, that it isn't metal isn't a problem AND access to magnetic charging. There is a good lip over the screen too. Price seems ok, shipping cost is unusually high though.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] Clownzer:
Just so you know the bumper you linked is actually made of rubber. I purchased it and its about a 3 on a scale from 1 -10
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] One Twelve:
Put up some pics.

3 out of 10 in terms of what ?
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] Avantiel:
so this works on the dock without having to modify anything?
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] btort1:
I had a screen protector on the front and back of the phone with the bumper

My main problem with this is pressing the volume/power button since you have to dig to press it. That's the same with the lovemei bumper as well. It's 7.5/10 comfortable when holding it, but I do wish it had some rubber somewhere to add better grip to the phone. At least I have a strap so it's safe from falls

And as for the magnetic charging, it does fit but you have to cut a little piece of the rubber from the magnetic charger for it to fit. The magnetic charger is too thick to fit at first

[Google Chromecast] ayush20m:
So I bought my Chromecast because I was on a long trip and thought this would be cool to watch my shows on the TV rather than my laptop.

Hotel 1: I was easily able to set it up. I was able to access the side buttons to change the input to HDMI and everything was good.

Hotel 2 and about 3 hotels since: After selecting the HDMI input, the screen is black and the shows no signal. If i power cycle the Chromecast, it shows something but then back to no signal.

Anyone has seen this issue? I am mostly staying in Hilton hotels...
[Google Chromecast] EarlyMon:
The router has to allow the right protocols such as UPnP.

Known issue that many hotels don't.
[Google Chromecast] TeamHackura:
I'd figure you would probably have network problems more than anything since most decent public Wi-Fi puts each user on a different subnet. As far as display it may be having trouble recognizing the resolution 720 or 1080p. Most hotels still employ 720
[Google Chromecast] ayush20m:
Network wise I am covered. I have a 4G hotspot with unlimited data. How to I check and fix the display issue?
[Google Chromecast] ayush20m:
This seems to be my issue: Resolution Issue

I am just curious to know how it worked on the same brand/model TV in one hotel but won't on the other.

[Google Chromecast] dc211:
I believe the problem you're running into is the hotels disabling HDMI inputs.

To solve the problem look at the model of the TV. Jump on the internet and find the service manual for the TV. There will be a combination of button to push to access the service menu where you can re-enable the inputs.
[Google Chromecast] Blueback22:
Sometimes hotels don't allow access to the hdmi ports unless you disable Lodgenet. You do this by unplugging the cable that looks like a phone jack on the back of the TV

Does Android support Multi-APN function in UMTS network?

which means the mobile phone activate two (or more) primary PDP contexts belong to different APNs.

for instance, in LTE networks, for IMS based VoLTE, it's pretty common for two primary PDPs

one for SIP signaling and another for voice.

but is it possible for UMTS network?

when you downloading via "internet" APN, an APP tries to activate another PDP by APN "wap"

will the "inernet" PDP context been deactivated or not?

Hi guys,

I have just started playing FF III on my Nexus 7c and everything went smooth until the part where I'm fighting Giant Frog at that temple after the cave where the Viking is. While in mini the only attack that make sense is magic so I set 3 of my characters as Red Mage and bombarded the bos with magic. But even until I finish all my MPs the frog still stand. Is this a game bug?

Thank you in advance.

I am trying to unlock the bootloader through HTCdev but my problem is when I open up cmd and type in the command all I get is fastboot access is denied!

I have searched and read for days but cannot find anything to help me out so I have joined up with xda in the hopes someone else out there has had a similar issue or can atleast suggest something.
[HTC One X] Bobbi lim:
Try creating a new fastboot folders and updating your HTC drivers. If the need arise, I can share with you my fastboot files
[HTC One X] convict_moody:
It's probably that the folder is under admin previlage protection.

Try moving fastboot folder.

Didn't work:

-Try extracting fastboot to a new directory again.

Didn't work:

-Run cmd as admin, then use cd command to navigate into fastboot folder

ex: cd c:\fastboot\
[HTC One X] mrrflagg:
Hi convict_moody, I have tried all that you suggested and went as far as removing all traces of my HTC drivers and

fastboot folders from my computer and tried it all from scratch and still no luck.

I recently did a HTC update to 4.2.2 and the Hboot is 1.73 with S on just if that info is of help?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Are the drivers properly installed, you see MYHTC in the windows device manager. If so that's fine.

Maybe download the android sdk bundle and open the command window in the platform tools folder.

Then put there the unlock code.bin file too and flash it

Drivers are up to date and I have tried with the sdk bundle, it seems to be so simple and not getting it to work is rather frustrating.

Sure you logged in as admin on the pc ?

I went in tonight to my local VZ store and they didn't get any white ones in. Which is fine since I preferred the black anyway, but i wanted to at least look at the white one in person. Oh well, G2 is very nice, I am quite impressed, coming from the Nexus of course, like most it seems lol

There are pictures of it in white and I read one rumor last week that it would be out yesterday, which obviously didn't come true. Of course they won't let you switch colors, only if it's in your 14 day return policy. I think I'll just activate my old S4 I return my G2 for now. I hate to give it up because I love the phone but I would really regret it if the white come out soon. I could deal with black if I knew white wasn't coming, but [MENTION=2199119]evl[/MENTION]eaks is usually pretty accurate.
[Verizon LG G2] dswatson83:
I'm waiting as well. My wife really wants the white one since she thinks the black has a little blueish tint to it. However I need a phone by Thursday so I may order a G2 in black today (since there are some great prices around) and then just wait till Thursday to activate it in case the G2 in white comes along and isn't $150-200. I gather the process of returning will be much easier if I have not activated the phone or even opened the box.

---------- Post added at 08:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 AM ----------

I am guessing that if you called Verizon and they said they are not carrying it, while that means absolutely nothing to me it probably means it is not sitting in the back of the store so I'm guessing it would not be released before next Tuesday.

Hello all,

So I was attempting to install TWRP onto my Note 3 via dd; because goo mngr hasn't been working for me (should've just used odin.....). In doing so, I managed to hard brick my phone. After a lot of exploring these forums and others I attempted the method found on this site:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2476353

I tried both the listed .img and the two .img's for the sprint model I found...

I used Linux Mint to write the img to my sdcard but when using with fdisk i received GNU error and asked that I used gtp instead. Modded my Linux for gdisk and installed the img to the sdcard in that way. It seemed to write ok but the phone will not boot after reinstalling the card. I'm wondering if the issue its not successful is because I'm using the gdisk. If so what suggestions do you have to work around the fdisk/gdisk issue or perhaps there is no .img available and the ones I've obtained were just useless... Either way any help would be immensely appreciated.

Coding:

sudo dd if=/home/##/Desktop/recovery.img of=/dev/sdb1 ------(This appeared to work fine)

sudo gdisk -l /dev/sdb1 [or.... sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb1]

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.greenify

developer option, system tuner, and greenify is all you need to may kindle fly.

developer option app: turn off all animation scales

system turner: freeze Google system apps, stop startup apps, tweaks

greenify: hibernate most all apps

before i had about 90-100mb free ram when first boot. now i get over 300mb free ram after boot. makes kindle a bit more responsive imo. and freezing those google apps will make your wakelocks go away and should increase battery life significantly.

Install the xposed framework first, within that you can download gravitybox and motoxposed as modules. Make sure theyre enabled. Then go into either the gravitybox app or motoxposed app to make changes.
