Well I hope they get it in for you ASAP and all goes well with installation. I don't think I'm as lucky here in the UK, we don't have such kiosks, but if we did I bet they'd make a fortune. Thanks for the update! :)

[Xperia Z1 Accessories] GTCC:
I think you can use any of the screen protectors except the glass ones I guess.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] bodson66:
nope glass ones are fine as well, the ASF does scratch very easily but I put all sorts of protector on top of it ie (PET, Tempered Glass, even wet installation type). I ended up removing it simply because I liked the look of it without it.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] mdt73:
I am currently using the iSmooth front screen protector, and love it. The installation is easier than normal due to the protector being slightly thicker. I used an iSmooth on a Galaxy Note 2 through an entire deployment to Afghanistan, with no real wear that could be found. I highly recommend it.

That said, I love using this phone naked, so I might just break down and get some ghost armor. I personally don't mind the texture. I will warn you though... the corners have a chance to peel up if you put the phone in your pocket too early. I use a leather Xperia sleeve, so hopefully this won't happen to me (again).
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] Zerousen:
Does the side armor cover the entirety of the device? The iPhone Ghost Armor seems to tend to leave openings when there are buttons/sim slot. Whe nI get my Z1, I want the thing covered completely.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] gz023247:
I am in desperate need of a screen cover for my Z1. I have never used Ghost Armor before and would be interested if anyone can advise what the main difference is like between that of MatteArmor and GhostArmor?

Also has anyone tried this before as a comparison? http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/40820-Mu...=&locale_filter=6&sort_by=&show_all=1#reviews
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] Zerousen:
Ghost Armor would be your typical clear cover, whilst matte would have a more matte feel to it, think of the feel that anti-glare screen protectors have. I'm actually thinking of going with Skinomi skins, since it's cheaper and it seems to cover more of the device when comparing some of the other products they each have together. I am unsure of how the Ghost Armor looks on the Z1, but I'd imagine it'd be about the same as something like the iPhone 4. Here's a link to the full body protection kit from Skinomi.

[Xperia Z1 Accessories] gz023247:
Appreciate your feedback and advice, thanks. Followed your link and seems to get great reviews, however I'm in the UK so cost wise for me probably wouldn't be so practical. Do you have experience of using the Armor or Zagg covers on previous phones, if you did what where your thoughts?
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] Zerousen:
Luckily, they seem to sell them on the UK site as well.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Skinomi®-Te...TF8&qid=1387511919&sr=8-1&keywords=skinomi+z1

Personally, I haven't tried any skins of this kind, the closest thing is a cheap carbon fiber skin I bought for 5 dollars on amazon, however, after watching several videos on youtube on different skins, I find that the Skinomi skins seem to cover more of the device, and have very nice cut outs. The Ghost Armor unfortunately cover too little for me to feel completely safe, and the Zagg skins seem very prone to getting a yellowish discolor.

The skins also have a sort of rubbery texture to them, which I personally am not too worried about so long as the device is protected, and if I don't like it on the front of the device, I can always just peel it off and replace it with a different screen protector, or maybe save up for a tempered glass one.

It might also be a good idea to still have a case on it, a bumper would be perfect if you want to show off your shiny new Z1, and protect not only the device, but the edges of the skin to keep them from getting all dirty and peeling off like what I've seen from some of the more unfortunate/heavy users.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] FranzDages:
Sorry that I haven't replied back sooner. The Ghost-Armor that I ordered from the mall kiosk didn't come in. I was in the town where my company is based (about four hours from home), and the guy at the kiosk admitted that he screwed up and didn't order it express as he had intended. I stopped by on Monday, but it wasn't going to arrive until the next day. He was actually extremely nice about it, and cut out a workable screen protector for me until I will get back there after the new year. It isn't quite as smooth a feel as without it, but it doesn't seem to affect screen response at all. I've got the full-body coverage waiting for me, but like I said won't be having that applied until around January 6th or 7th. I've used both Zagg and Ghost-Armor before, and I've never had any real problems with them. I have seen a little of the "orange-peel" using them, but not enough that it has ever bothered me. Search Zagg Invisible Shield orange peel, and you should get an idea of what I'm talking about.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] gz023247:
Hi,

Well for now I've ordered the Muvit Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Sony Xperia Z1	from Mobilefun. Hopefully it will do the trick for now, though I may end up eating my words lol!! Realised it was actually this one I was after http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/krusell-self-healing-screen-protector-for-sony-xperia-z1-p40761.htm whoops!!

The invisible shield armour didn't get a great review by someone :-\

XtremeGuard - Yes it is the best

I am using XtremeGuard on my Xperia Z and mY iPad since 5 months ...

Even on my Xperia Z1

I purchased using 80off2 coupon and had to pay only 10 dollars (600 Rupees) when i ordered Full Body Protecton for my Xperia Z and iPad 4 including shipping ...

Not even a single scratch since then and the transparency is very much appreciable ...

www.xtremeguard.com

They will deliver anywhere in the world (Even they delivers to rural villages in india) and they give great discounts...

But we need a credit card or PayPal to order ...

I used Zagg which got peeled off after 2 months on my Xperia Arc S ...

Price wise, dont fork out too much for a screen protector. You can pick a font and back quality GEARMAXX screen protector for less than $12 bucks from ebay
[M.O.J.O. General] ExtremeRyno:
Probably answered elsewhere, but I've got a couple questions about the MOJO:

1. Dual controllers. Will we be able to use two controls with the system? I have the Sixaxis app and a PS3 controller that I'm quite a fan of. Would love to see some two-player action.

2. Media Player. Will the Mojo have built-in media players? If so, what codecs are currently supported? I have videos saved in flv, mp4, avi, mpg, mov, etc. Would love to stream them to the TV.
[M.O.J.O. General] Mad Catz Rich:
Hi,

1. Yes, we support multiple controllers and we support at least the following:

Mad Catz C.T.R.L.R

Xbox 360 Controller

Dualshock 3

Any Bluetooth HID-compliant controller

2. Only the stock video player ships on M.O.J.O. but of course being an open platform you can load any media player that you want. Some of the obvious ones like MXPlayer won't show up on the Play Store on M.O.J.O. because they haven't updated their manifest yet to remove the touchscreen requirement, but you can of course still obtain the APK from elsewhere and install it. Regarding codecs, the following are supported:

Audio: MP3, WAV/PCM/LPCM, AAC, FLAC, OGG

Photo: JPEG, GIF, BMP, PNG

Video: AVI (Xvid, AVC, MPEG2/4), MPG/MPEG, VOB, FLV (h.264), MKV (h.264, x.264, AVC, MPEG2/4, VC-1)
[M.O.J.O. General] tennisbgc:
can anyone confirm if this can play vc-1 content smoothly?
[M.O.J.O. General] goodBEan:
Were there be any issues if I get a second c.t.r.l.r?

Would they be able to use the same dongle?

Will the apps (like emulators) be able to tell the difference between player one and two?
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
I got a second CTRLR.

Same dongle yes... requires BT on in Android setting.

re: tell the difference between player one and two?

Yes, You have to create new mapping.
[M.O.J.O. General] goodBEan:
Create new maping? could you go into more detail about that?
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
Sure, app/games/emulators/etc sometimes detect the controller but don't assign buttons to actions (games like NOVA/CONDUIT/GTA does with the CTRL).

Mapping/configure/controller setup/etc is where you tell the app what buttons does what.. ie up on dpad CRTLR 1 is P1 up, X on CTRLR 1 is P1 X etc, etc.

Then just repeat for P2.

Some emulators call them profiles which can then be switch between P1, P2, etc. thus swapping controllers without having to remap/reconfigure.

If you read the app's instructions/help it should be better explained how it handles the controller in general.
[M.O.J.O. General] goodBEan:
Thanks, I wanted to make sure it was the same thing I was thinking of.

[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Android Development] Darian71:
For the life of me I can't figure out these dual core processor's. My GS3 has nearly identical processor as our grand, and with stock kernel scores 18,000+ in Antutu Benchmark. Using the highest possible voltage in max, and 800 in minimum with Interactive /K2wl governor and sio/sioplus scheduler, the best I've managed to get is a 12,187 in Antutu Benchmark. I've read that even with a live OC option available with other Kernels running dual core processor, the effect is minimal. I actually get better results using my single core Samsung Captivate using similar governors with 200/1400 mhz settings and live OC up to 110%.(hardware won't handle anything higher). But overall, the scores running Kitkat on my cappy improved up to 3000 points. Anyone know how we have a dual core processor that's not reaching it's full potential? I'm a noob in this area of hardware.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Android Development] naufalhadyan:
How do you even compare Grand with GS3 -__- GS3's dual core variant has a snapdragon S4 with 1.5 GHz Krait... it's much more powerful than Grand's processor.

You should compare Grand with GS2 or more accurately GS2 plus, which we share many in hardware. GS2 and an optimized GS2 plus get almost the same scores at about 11000-12000
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Android Development] Darian71:
My bad. I thought I had read in the specs we had the same chipset. But I also have a Pantech Flex with the snapdragon (which is hard bricked), so I may have been reading the wrong specs. Lol. The flex posted some really nice scores on ICS. Wish I could find a Debrick. IMG for it. Accidentally flashed a "Flex" CM 10.1 Rom for a Tablet on it. :(
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Android Development] k2wl:
antutu scores are not predictor of your user experience. They test performance of various components of mobiles. cm 11is great in user experience.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Android Development] Darian71:
Oh I deffinitely agree. Since discovering CM, I've been hooked. I guess it's kinda like driving a bit V8 engine in a vehicle, or 4 cylinder. You still get a great experience with both. Just more bragging rights (and less mpg) with the V8. Lol. Antutu actually States at the end of each test below 12000,that my CPU is poor and not good for running large apps. 2D graphics=good, and 3D=General. But is able to handle most games. Obviously it doesn't know my kernel or Rom Devs! Cause this baby performs like a formula 1 race car! Anyways, I did read that some Samsung models will actually shut one core down to preserve battery life if not being used. I actually found an app that keeps both cores active but didn't notice anything as the system most likely had them both engaged anyways while I was using it. Thanks for the feedback guys! Oh, your k2wl governor is really good man. :thumbup: good job. :cool:
