Thanks for nothing guys. could have probably gotten a response faster if it wasn't for your STUPID rules limiting new members from posting in other locations other than Q&A. But hey newbs are idiots right so why even bother. discussion boards... half the time as useless as a tech support! Glad I'm an analyst for a living.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't get any replies mate. Because you have been posting in the wrong section! :D

Your device has a forum dedicated for it. That's where you would get faster answers.

Newbies are not considered idiots or strangers here, unless they start acting like one. Rules are meant to be followed, not to make your life miserable, but to make life easier for everyone else. :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffsf:
Please remember that the Galaxy S 4G is a three-year-old phone at this point and there isn't anywhere near the traffic in the section as there is with the "popular" phones. I don't think that it is the "STUPID rules" (as this is probably as good a section as any), but more that there are only a handful of people that hang out here, and irregularly at that. You asked a question that isn't one that most readers here have ever had to deal with, further reducing your chances of an immediate answer.

If you do intend to hang around XDA, I think it would help your reputation here to post how you resolved the problem, so that someone else in your situation can benefit from your knowledge.

Probably actually started working on following directions for the Galaxy S4 rather than directions for the Galaxy S 4G.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibleedbinari:
Use a keyboard or recovery

I don't see where you said it was a Galaxy S 4G, but either way, here's what I know:

When you plug the phone into your PC, they folders that are missing on your old phone are not showing up because the phone is not unlocked (lockscreen). Android only allows file transfers over MTP if the phone is currently unlocked as a security measure.

There are two things I would try. First, if your lockscreen is a PIN code, you could try attaching a keyboard via USB-OTG and use it to unlock the phone by typing in the PIN and <Enter>. If you cannot do that, then I would recommend trying to boot into recovery using the hardware keys and use adb from there.

Good luck :)

Thanks! Ordered one from amazon
[Nexus 5 Accessories] GoatsTech:
Nice. I have the Mime Ghost glass protector being sent to me, but I might have to try iloome out.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] thoang1987:
iloome installed, mini-review

Ordered mine from amazon, came in about 2-3 days. First impression, the packaging for the flex glass was great. A box inside a little box, inside a thick protective covering, inside of a thin protective covering. It came with all the necessary things for a clean install- cleaning cloth, "hinge" tape, and dust remover. The flex glass was perfectly cut, although it only has a cutout for the speaker- no cutout for front camera or proximity. I have not noticed any difference in quality of the front camera or had any issues with the proximity sensor. Glass is crystal clear and so much better than the other type of screen protectors. The glass feel is perfect. 100% satisfied...never gonna have a phone without it again!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] CDeviant:
When you applied it were there bubbles?

I have this big fear that if I get a bubble in a glass SP I'll never be able to push it out. I always use wet SP because of this.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] thoang1987:
I did the hot shower method. I took a hot shower in the bathroom and then applied it right after. No bubbles. Looks and feels like theres no screen protector

You should read my mini-review. This thread isn't even a page long yet...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] baller4lifeii:
How does this compare to popular PET film screen protectors like the iSmooth?

Can someone with both comment on the differences?

I have the iSmooth, which works great with my Diztronic case. Clarity is also great, but it seems to attract so much oil!! My screen constantly gets greasy and becomes a fingerprint magnet. More so than cheaper screen protectors that I've put on my parents' phones. So does the oleophobic coating on the iloome work well?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] thoang1987:
This flex glass almost feels like the OEM glass. It was raining today and i noticed that when it hit the screen, the water immediately beaded. With that said, it's alot easier to clean! It attracts a bit less fingerprints than the PET films, but nothing significant. Definitely on the same scale as the OEM glass. Hope that helps
[Nexus 5 Accessories] y2k1ltd:
Ok, smart@$$. That wasn't called for. As for your mini review it would be helpful if you has a link to it. Just saying.......

Yes if you search iloome in the Nexus 5. Accessories section nothing about your supposed mini review comes up. So if you're going to post something, I suggest something useful.

BTW, the time it took for you to reply, you could have answered the question.............

Well it would do you some good if you could learn to at least scan the review. I would understand if this thread was pages long, but my post was two above yours. Stop looking for handouts.

Btw guys, i would post pics but i cant due to post count.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] r a g n o r:
Can anyone post some pictures about this screen?

Besides oleophobicity, is it also antifingerprint and antirefflective (so, matte, as its name implies)?

How is this compared to GLASS-M, MIME or other tempered glass protectors?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] y2k1ltd:
I stand corrected...... Sorry to the both of you guys.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] biggiestuff:
No problem. Just trying to help with a little fun jabs here and there. :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] fahadbr:
Hi guys, i just wanted to share my experience with this screen protector. I apologize as i don't have pics, but there's not much to see in a screen protector anyway.

I went ahead and bought this SP because of its price and the decent reviews on amazon. My installation was, IMO, perfect. The iloome looked absolutely invisible on my phone (unless you looked around the edges).

Now, iloome warns you that there will be a residue after you install the SP and that it should wear off in a day or two. I was aware of this the entire time but i do not feel that the touch feel of the screen improved at all overtime. The screen felt smooth enough...but it had this terrible squeaky aspect to it which drove me nuts. On top of that, it collected fingerprints as if it were it's JOB (this thing was supposed to have a olephobic coating). I only lasted two days with this thing on. Day 1 i scrubbed the SP to try to remove the residue and improve the feel, this did not help. Day 2 i was starting to hate using my nexus 5 because of the way the SP felt. I decided that even if there was still some residue that needed to be worn off, the amount fingerprints this thing was accumulating was enough reason for me to want to take it off. Now im back to the bare screen and loving the original feel.

Btw this thing was so flexible to the point where i questioned if it were in fact glass. I confirmed that it was (probably) glass by bending it to the point of breaking...(it was still in once piece but there were cracks in the middle).

This was not my first tempered glass SP. My first experience was a tech armor for the GS4. That one was much more thick and rigid but it also felt sooo good.

I hope this helps some of you. If your experience with this SP was better than mine then good for you, i must've gotten unlucky.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] baller4lifeii:
Wish I had read this before ordering mine last night. I will give it a try and report back. My biggest concern is fingerprint.. :rolleyes: We shall see.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] realitysconcierge:
I ordered the flex with my new nexus. Used the shower method to get the dust out of the air, and hinge method to put it on. At first the protector had a lot of friction on it, but after wiping it vigorously for a little while (like a newborn pup) it cleared up perfectly and now it's smoother than glass. Overall I think it was a great investment. I wish Iloome had come out with their tempered glass protector for the N5, but I think the flex will definitely do the job for now.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] freezeburn:
I have this Tech21 case http://goo.gl/wsrqbW and was wondering if this flex protector would play nice with the case. The case looks just like the Ringke Fusion so if anyone could give me their opinion I would appreciate it;.Pics would help too if you have a different case that fits great with this protector.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Yaminashi:
Anyone using this with the matte black diztronic?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] freezeburn:
Got mine today and so far its ok, the case doesn't come near it but the edges seem to be getting air bubbles which may be an issue later. I tried taking some pics to show but they didn't turn out so well.

Hey Fellas,

I am a part of Ankers Power User Program and will be reviewing /testing this product for them. I will provide dimensions, runtimes, heavy usage, real-world usage, ect.

Additionally, I will run a side by side comparison using same phone/ same tests. I just ordered my ZL 7000, now that it is in stock again.

****DISCLAIMER****

I was supplied a sample for test and evaluation, and promised that my review would be fair and honest.

Here are some stock pics.

WOOOW. As soon as I ordered my zerolemon and it already shipped out. This looks like it has a much more beautifully designed case and much thinner! I might as well order given the extra 200mah :P

Did this literally release today? I went through my whole weekend researching different extended batteries and debated myself which one I should get. Thickness is my biggest concern with the lemon

edit: it seems the dimensions are basically the same. But i may still go with this as it looks 10x better than the tpu case from zerolemon

wow... this is really thinner than my zerolemon case....and 7200mAh...

[Galaxy S III Accessories] cnlson:
I am not sure any other case will fit. I looked at the zero lemon otterbox like case and the anker has some sort of a raised plaque on the outside that I don't think would be compatible. I put some pictures in my thread if you are interested.

If you are on Verizon go ask for an nfc sim for isis. I got one in January, and so far $25 free from whoever had their prepaid option before and I think they have a new promotion with Amex serve for 20%cash back plus nfc even with this battery.

First Impressions......

The Anker 7200 is very well packaged, and the amount of thought that went into it really shows. The box is high quality and branded accordingly. The battery and case are enclosed in a plastic sleeve, then placed into a form fitted plastic tray with lid. Instruction manual, warranty card and power user info included.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
Well, we will find out soon. I'm going to run side by side comparisons using my stock unrooted s3 on 4.1.2

Any comparison review between ZeroLemon 7000mAh Vs. Anker 7200mAh?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
I ordered the ZL7000 as soon as it came back in stock and is due to arrive on Monday-1.6.2014

I'm curious as well.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
Real World Usage.....

This battery is amazing, it won't die. I consider myself a heavy user - killing most batteries under a day (4400mah flavors). I make about 75-100 calls a day, the same amount of emails, BTooth and wi fi roughly 4-6 hrs of the day. Music, games, downloading a ton of data and occasional gps.

I ran this test on auto dim with the usage described above and got 10.5 hrs of screen time with almost two full days of service! All this on only the second cycle. I'm curious to see how this will compare to the ZL with my usage.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
Case Comparrisons.....

So the ZL arrived in a no frills packaging. Not that really matters as it will go in the trash anyway.

It came with the usual, foil Ziploc bag, warranty card, manual, Case and battery.

The Zl case is thinner, shorter, has a nice grip, and I like that the case is not shiny. The buttons are well identified and responsive. The texture in the case offers assurances against the phone slipping out of your hand. The quality of the two cases is very apparent side by side. The ZL case feels very flimsy, and doesn't appear to offer much, if any drop protection. The sides of the case are loose and feels as though the phone might fall out. The Anker case is more ridgid, grips phone well and even has a foam insert inside the case to cushion the battery/phone upon a fall.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] thrgk:
If anyone is looking to sell one if their zl or abker I'd be interested. Just send me a message. Thanks
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Septembrie:
Waiting to see how zl is comparing with anker.

I guess it will be at least as good as anker.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
Real world comparison.......

Anker 7200 on second cycle-simply amazing.

This was ran on auto dim, wifi & btooth on, no gps, lots of emails and calls as usual. Games, music, downloads, speaker phone.....Two and a half days of runtime with 16 hrs of screen time! Wow, I am impressed.

Will start the ZL7000 comparison tomorrow. Stay tuned.....
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Septembrie:
Crazy screen time:sly:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] docnas:
Can i ask a question about the weight? Im currently using the stock battery but looking at my options for an extended battery. I dont need the crazy battery life this thing gives but it looks to me that this thing weighs the same as a 4400 mah battery.

Anyway can someone who used this battery (or the zerolemon) and one of the smaller capacity (4400mah) battery's give me some kind of comparison weights? also the 4400 seems to have that shelf like protrusion in the back and i worry that it might get "hung up" ie catching on things in my pocket and such does anyone have an experience with that?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
Regarding the weight. The phone with the OEM battery weighs 4.7 oz

The Anker 7200 with phone and case weigh 9.8 oz. So it's basically double the weight of a stock handset. I personally do not like the feel of the stock handset. I have big hands and stock feels too light and slips easily out of my hand.

Regarding the 'shelf' in the back of 4400mah flavors, It depends largely on the maker. I have the Anker 4400 and it comes with an expanded back door that is smooth and uniform along the phone profile.

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] docnas:
Thanks for the info. So in summary double the weight and double the thickness.. God damn these cell phone manufacturers, dont they know that if they give us a cool phone with lots of function we would like to use them and not all of us are sitting next to outlets all the time?

Anyway doubling the weight sounds heavy to me so il look into the 4400 or the OEM 3000mah battery's. Thanks again for the info.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
Finally the ZEROlemon comparison...

This is the first LARGE SCALE ext battery for the GS3, and it has some pretty incredible reviews along with a large fan base as well. *****DISCLAIMER*****

I want to mention that I am no scientist, electrical engineer, or the like. This comparison was not performed in a lab or on specialized equipment. This is MY observations with MY usage. I ran these tests on both batteries under identical loads using a stock GS3 on 4.1.2

***********************

This battery is no slouch. Running this test with auto bright, Wifi, blue tooth, 50-100 calls, double that in emails, downloads and attachments. Music, games and speakerphone.

The Zl pulled down 13hrs screentime over 1day 6 and 1/2hrs! This test was run on the second cycle as well to be fair. While it is not the 16 hrs the Anker put up. .. its still admirable. I'm going to run a rapid drain on the ZL as well to finalize the comparison. If this helps anyone on the fence deciding between the two, please hit the thanks button.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Sean Z:
If I may ask, what is your current setup on your phone aka (ROM, Kernel, etc)? Your screen time on the Anker battery is just ridiculously good.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
Sean,

I'm running stock 4.1.2

Kernel details below.

With a juice hogging next launcher as well.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Sean Z:
Stupid question... I'm not knowledgeable when it comes to rooting on android, but your setup/phone is not rooted, right? Sorry, I've been exploring different options for my S3 on what I could do to make the battery ideal and I came across this thread and saw your amazing results.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
Sean,

No worries. To answer your question, this phone is not rooted. While I've rooted a many Droid, DX2, D3's-this one remains bloated. Imagine with the right ROM... oh the possibilities.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Sean Z:
Haha, exactly! I asked because I've never seen a screen time like that so I thought that you had a custom ROM with a kernel that just does that magic.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] dukemagus:
i have a question.

does the bigger "case" cause any trouble when taking photos? don't know if the extra bulk in the back of the phone could be "in the way" of the lens
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
Duke,

The battery does not obstruct the camera in any way. Both cases appear to be engineered to ensure this concern. Side note, the Anker battery sits father away from the lens than the ZL.

I Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] duce415:
I order the anker 7200 today. Going to do some tests on it when I receive it. Hearing a lot of good things about it. Hopefully I can start seeing 3+ days without having to charge my battery. Was pulled between the zero lemon 7000 and the anker. With an extra 200 mah and a solid case, i feel the anker could be a great fit for me.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] duce415:
So I ordered this anker battery on Sunday and it came today ( way before schedule also ) which is great. My first initial thought when opening it was the packaging looks really good. Very good presentation. Coming from the yesoo extended battery I was already use to the bulky size of it. The weight is not much of a difference if you already use an extended battery. Feels the same to me. I like the case on the anker battery though. The anker case is nice and sleek. Covers the whole phone as well as puts a little bumper on the front so it doesn't touch directly in the screen of face down. Battery came half charged so tonight I will put it on the charger over nightvabd give it the real test tomorrow. Here's to better battery life.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] PiTXI:
Hello,

I've bought the anker 7200mah and I need to buy a charger because with a standard usb charger it spends a lot of time to charge the battery.

I'd to know the max output value of a charger that works with the anker 7200mah (ex: 1A, 1.2A, more?)

Thanks ;)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] paintball23456:
hmm, this battery doesn't seem impressive... I'm using the anker 4400mah battery

1 day 11 hours

9hours on screen time

2 hours mc4
[Galaxy S III Accessories] duce415:
For a 4400 battery and your getting 9 hours screen on time, that sounds like great battery life to me.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] duce415:
One thing I did notice about this anker case is not all headphone jacks work. The case doesn't allow the pin to go all the way in. You can hear music but not to the full potential unless you press hard to get it to stay in all the way. Other than that I've been loving it so far.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
The reviews on the zero lemon 7000 are indicating only 12 hours screen time. 9 hours for a 4400mah seems pretty good to me?
