I got an Incipio Feather (black, not shine) case for AT&T G2, love it so far, very slim, has just enough bezel to protect the screen and around the phone. The added thickness and rubberized coating provide a better grip on the phone.

The only problem is the case curves up along its length, thus, causing the phone to spin around when used face-up on a flat surface. Some photos and video of the problem:

https://plus.google.com/photos/1074...ms/5951807281278990673?authkey=CKn9jKDJ7qrGOA

Contacted Incipio, they confirmed that it's not just my case, and offered return (very honest). I've done enough research before buying this case, pretty sure there's no better one for me so I decided to keep it. Risking warranty, I've fixed the curving problem with some heat-shaping:

- heat a pan of water to boil, turn off the heat source

- submerge the case in the boiling water for about 90 seconds

- take the case out of hot water, apply pressure to the middle of the back of the case, along the two long edges, to straighten it out

- while applying the pressure, run the case under cold water for about 20-30 seconds

It still has a little bit of curving after the treatment, but not enough to create a pivot point for spinning. I can use the phone one handed when it sits on a flat surface now, no more spinning so I think it's good enough. It's mostly trial and error, you might have to try heat-shaping it more than once.

Just my $0.02 in case you're having the same problem.
[G2 Accessories] bas85:
That six. I was thinking of possibly getting this or the shine for my G2. But good to see that Incipio offered you a replacement in case the issue wasn't fixed.

[G2 Accessories] ZhenWan:
I recently received my Sprint/T-Mobile Incipio Feather Shine (Silver) via International Post, since it wasn't avaliable in the EU. It fits very nicely on my D802. I've also read about the 'curved' back, and they've fixed that problem which is nice.

It's a shame they didn't add a silicon bottom and top to cover the speakers and bezels from possible chipping or bumping.

Overall, happy to have this case ^_^
[G2 Accessories] player911:
My Verizon model doesn't do this.

The only issue I have is that I rest the phone on my pinky finger at the bottom near the USB, and my case has sharp edges on top and bottom. So sharp that it becomes very painful and leaves marks on my pinky. Its such a problem that I've thought of sanding it down.

Anyone else have this?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skules:
So Who else is having issues with wallpapers? After about 5 tries my wallpaper randomly decided to semi-work but the ends are still cropped but it's usable.

Can't find too much information on what the default 4.4 wallpaper crop thing does or how to use it (got mine from random luck).

For example the image i'm trying to use is 1920x1080

images6.alphacoders.com/419/419916.jpg

Managed to get it to center but it only shows this (from full left to right on my 3 pages/homescreens)

postimg.org/image/nl9r0o42l

So basically -

1. Anyway to resize or anything to show the full image on my nexus? (Have 3 homescreens/windows). I tried image2wallpaper but it only showed the same as above

2. How the hell does 4.4 kitkat's wallpaper settings work? Sometimes it would choose full left (So only cloud was shown), othertimes full right(So only sephiroth) and from random luck it centered with the edges cut like i said above.

Or is this simply just the limitation because of the devices size
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FourPointedFreak:
Some images, based on their file type and size and how you crop it, will try and push itself behind your Google Now home page rather than only behind your custom home screens. The best way to probably do this and resize your image to the same size as the default wallpapers included with KitKat to give you a better understanding of where they need to be.

Test cropping - apply a default wallpaper and get used to the crop pattern and then try that with your re sized image to apply to your custom lock screens.

Just a thought.

So I noticed that with the Nexus 5 image that's on the box (like this one http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/787373KitKatWallpaper03copie.jpg), except I don't think that's the actual one, if I zoom out from Google Photos, I see the red bar at the top. Android lets me set it as my wallpaper, but when I reboot, the view is zoomed in again. It seems Android resizes wallpapers on its own.

[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] georgenibe:
Hi all

I'm new, so not sure if this is the right place for this post, please bear with me.

I installed CWM-touch_i9082_chotu.tar on my galaxy grand phone wanting to install CM-10.2

.

When I boot to Recovery mode and do "wipe data/ factory reset", all I see is "No" on every row. When I touch the screen, it returns to the Recovery mode screen. I do not know how to uninstall CWM-touch_i9082_chotu.tar.

So I downloaded and installed PhilZ Touch 6, and tried again, but the phone hangs. So, I rebooted the phone and did a factory reset.

Now everything is hanging on the boot screen. If I reboot the phone I see only the boot screen

Please, how do I get my phone working again?

Tanx.

[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] iceyhotguy:
Take the recovery .tar file from here according to your firmware (4.1.2 or 4.2.2) : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2315529

Then follow this step by step instructions : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46395577&postcount=19

You mainly need the fix-recovery.zip to give your recovery proper permissions after switching from stock. This will have to be done each time you flash a firmware through Odin.

If after flashing you get a bootloop, simply boot into recovery and clear cache and dalvik cache and you'll be good :good:

[HTC One X] brushmate:
Hi,

I tried to update my HOX to the latest 4.2.2 OTA update. The recovery said that I can not update because the CID assertion failed. My CID is HTC__102 which was in the list and I downloaded the zip with the built in update service. So I just removed the assertion lines in the updater-script of the zip and flashed it using CWM. The flash went well, but now I am not able to boot the device anymore.

What can I do now? Do you need any other information? HBOOT is 1.72.

Best regards!

Update:

I forgot to relock the bootloader. After doing so I was able to flash the firmware.zip from the OTA package. Now it works again.

T9 dialer, I noticed the other day I don't have to scroll through a list of thousands of contacts or search names, I can just open the dialer press 726 and Ramiro shows as the contact. Or 666 and Mom is who I see. 262 gets me Amanda. Etc. This is something I've been waiting for Google to implement since I got into android, so fairly exciting.

What else have you guys found?
[Nexus 5 General] shotta35:
Last check 4.3 and i think even 4.2 had the smart dialer (T9). I guess i don't have "thousands" of contacts in my phone so maybe that's why i didn't really need/use it. :p
[Nexus 5 General] krabman:
They have upped the ante massively with voice recognition and particularly voice search with it being in my opinion the killer feature of 4.4. Google now while improved is still an annoying intrusion that I disabled after a day. I disliked it immediately but like to give these things a little time to see if they grow on me. The GEL is an embarrassing failure in my opinion and someone should lose their job for thinking it would be a good idea to fix the search bar on any screen let alone all of them. I know 2 others now with the N5 and we all kicked the launcher to the curb in short order.

One thing that I've seen little talk of is the stock dialer. I'm not actually sure if it's kit Kat or Google? I expected to dislike it but I actually like it and have continued to use it. It has some flaws like not searching the call log but the ability to start typing in the name of a local place and have it's number pop up before you can finish is very useful and if it wasn't for the amazing voice search (which also works in the dialer) I would probably list the dialer as the single best stock feature.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fedevd:
This is device specific but you can use this to port to another device, just use the proper stuffs. This is a help for the new users who wants to collaborate and learn a bit, I can't promise you that doing this ypur rom will boot easy, I didn't ported v5 yet but the process is closer to v4 porting so reading, researching and using the head, maybe, you will make a bootable port.. Just give it a shot and try. More people involved on the same project will make more easy everything so work together and respect each other, don't be a noob/kanger/idiot..

This will cover from kernel built to framework patch. So you will:

• Build CM kernel for MIUI

• Port MIUI diffing and patching the 'framework' and copying the propper files to make it bootable

• Learn a bit about how Android works

• Learn how to debug and make/use reverse enginnearing

• Spend more time porting than being with a girl and friends? C'mon, get a life..

O.S.:

• Windows 7 - You will use it for almost everything

• Ubuntu 13.04 (x64 bit) (Yes, use this one just because I say it) - You will use it for kernel building

Software (Windows only):

• Notepad++ - For 'build.prop'

• WinMerge - For smalis diff., I don't care if Notepad++ have 'compare' plugin, WinMerge is the best for methods blocks compare

• Smali/Baksmali tool - The best in this case to decompile the framework

• WinRAR or 7zip - Seriously? C'mon, I don't need to tell you why you will use this..

• Android SDK - For 'adb' tool

Done!! You're ready to start with this, so buy a Coke or a beer or whatever you want, buy cigarrs and time, you will need a looot of time, this is not hard but takes to much time testing, fixing, pushing, testing again, fixing again, reading and paying attention..

This is a 'Work In Progress' guide 'cus I am at work rite nao, so I can't make all the guide now but I will continue this as soon as possible.. I will do the guide first and then I will add some pic's and examples to make it more easy to understand the whole proccess so stay tuned..

Anyways I rooted my Motorola Motoluxe (XT615) and i've now started on removing all the yucky, yucky bloatware. So i've came across an app labelled "Terms of Service" (com.motorola.setup.tos) and i was wondering if anyone knows if it is safe to remove?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbensf:
Not safe

Probably no.

I've just removed it on a rooted Defy Mini and now I'm stuck in an endless loop of "died unexpectedly [force close]" dialogs :(

I have the .apk backed up and will manage to restore it - which would be easier if I had some free storage...

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

Update: the dialogs started popping up during an attempt to remove it using Root Uninstaller.

It seems it didn't complete the uninstall - the dialogs disappeared after I did in adb shell:

$ su
# pm uninstall com.motorola.setup.tos
Success

Now the phone seems to work ok (including after reboot).

In other words, you might try it but make sure USB debugging is on, and back up the app...
