Ballistic case have the same problem with the screen protecter on G2.

I have the case myself, and due to the floop top and buttom, it makes the screenprotectors fall off. Pretty sure otterbox should hold them down better due to not having floppy top/buttom.

But I still love my case. Fixed it with a tiny piece of tape at the top and buttom just on the edge, so the case didn't lift them up!
[G2 Accessories] podagee:
i will find out if there is any issues with the case tomorrow. hopefully there is none cause i really hate the otterbox case for the g2 cause the built-in screen protector is not flat on the device it has an arch. im giving my otterbox to my wife and ill be using the ballistic.
[G2 Accessories] podagee:
get the ballistic sg maxx its awesome. everything fits nicely in the AT&T variant. screen protector works without issue. feels good in the hand. im verry happy with this case.
[G2 Accessories] podagee:
my case has no issue with the screen protector. make sure you have it on the right way. the soft sides go over the lip of the screen protector. i have no issues with slipping or fall outs. its in there pretty good.
[G2 Accessories] lumpawarump:
I have the Verizon version and have had no issues with my Obliq screen protector so far. The case is a bit bulky, but that's to be expected when choosing one for higher levels of protection. Normally I would have gone with an Otterbox, but a Verizon version wasn't available until recently, so I went with the Ballistic and have been happy with it. The hard shell has a bit less grip to it than an Otterbox, but it isn't too bad. Also, the Verizon variant has protection for the volume/power buttons on the back, while it looks like the Verizon version of the Otterbox leaves the buttons exposed.
[G2 Accessories] podagee:
Ballistic is a better option than the otterbox. ballistics's screen protector is flush with the screen as otterbox is arched over leaving an air pocket. i actually find the ballistic thinner than the otterbox. and way nicer.

Did the SG maxx fit your Verizon version well, the description from the website states that it doesn't fit. I'd love to know thanks

What's the difference between maxxx, and not maxxx ? :P
[G2 Accessories] solaris2k:
The Maxx case includes protection flaps that cover the charger and headphone ports kinda like Otterbox Defender cases and comes with a holster. The regular doesn't.
[G2 Accessories] nyorbee:
Ok, thanks, becasue I'm thinking of buing regular one. How do you think, this is the best protection on the market in terms of protecting phone from broke digitizer when falling? Because my g2 fell from 30 cm and now is in lg repair :P
[G2 Accessories] solaris2k:
The Maxx case isn't available for the Version version, only the regular Shell Gel case.. not much of a differences unless you really want port covers and a holster. The regular should do fine.

I haven't used the Ballistic case for the G2 but I had one for my Optimus G Pro. It was definitely thick and offered great protection but I never dropped that phone with the case on it before. It should hold up pretty well considering how thick those corners are. I do however have lots of experience with Otterbox cases. I've dropped phones in those cases on concrete a bunch of times and the phone always came out flawless after but they're so ugly for this phone I ended up with a Spigen Slim Armor case. I've dropped it a few times on carpeted floors and it's fine so far but no accidents on concrete yet.
[G2 Accessories] lumpawarump:
Sorry, I didn't know there was a Maxx version. I have the Verizon version of the regular one without port covers. The bottom edge is a little loose due to the cutouts for the USB, speaker, and headphones, but it isn't too bad. Otherwise, it fits great.
[G2 Accessories] podagee:
screen protector and holster clip.

today the screen protector is making me mad it is not responding to double tap. so in my experience a few days with the case you start running into issues with screen protector.
[G2 Accessories] supercereal45:
Anyone, please post some pics. Hated the otter box air pocket, really interested in this as an option
[G2 Accessories] podagee:
sorry i havent posted pics yet will do so when my wife gets here tomorrow. i finally got my screen protector working again. i love my case and phone again. dont think about it just get it,it honestly feels a lot better than otterbox. otterbox has more bulk than ballistic. my opinion....buy it, its worth it.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Snisol113:
Okay... So I have a bit of an issue here that I hope I can get resolved really quickly. I got an HTC Evo 4G LTE and decided I wanted to root it in a fairly short amount of time. I previously had a Samsung Galaxy S3 which I rooted and I have a Nexus 7 tablet which is rooted, so I'm not necessarily new to the process. I followed all the normal steps.

However, whenever it came to installing twrp I thought it would be better to install cwm, so I switched the recovery image files. This worked for the time being and I was able to boot into recovery without a problem. I booted into recovery successfully and was able to wipe everything that needed wiping, but since this is a new phone I didn't think it would be necessary to back up anything, so I skipped that step. After wiping the dalvik cache, sys cache and did a data/factory reset I went to install CyanogenMod 11 (since I wanted android 4.4 on my Evo). When it went to install the mod the phone gave me a "status 7" error message. I tried again to no avail. So I thought it was because I had installed cwm instead of twrp. So I went ahead and flashed twrp onto the phone. No dice, twrp didn't even work. So I flashed a stock rom, didn't work either. So I re-flashed cwm onto the device and now it won't go past the recovery stage. i.e. when I try to power on the phone it goes directly into recovery, I boot into the "power+volume down" mode and it doesn't help at all. So I'm kind of stuck at this point and not sure what to do. I cannot access the internal files of the phone and I would really like to get it working by tomorrow or the next day.

Thanks for your time.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
In addition to what Bigdaddy posted, you need to use TWRP recovery, not CWM. CWM doesn't play well with the misc partition on the EVO LTE. I also suggest reading the Hboot guide in my sig for some useful information. Once you get your phone up & running, you will need to fix your misc partition.

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruudjewee:
I am using CyanogenMod 10.1 by TeamCanjica

When I take a picture it gets auto uploaded to dropbox, however dropbox renames the file to 1970-01-01 01.00.00.jpg

The reason for this seems to be that the EXIF data (metadata of the photo) has the wrong date in it, therefore dropbox does not rename the file to the correct date.

Is there any way to fix this?

Hi,

This might seems simple but I can find an answer so here goes.

I have a dual recovery installed and I'm trying to get into Flashmode

When I press vol + up it goes into CWM

When I press vol + down it goes into TWRP

So what sequence will get me into Flashmode?

2) Then as you plug in the USB into your computer, hold down volume down

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Num43:
I rooted and replaced the rom on 2 international 16gb Galaxy S3's and now they are VERY sluggish to use.

I rooted using the S3 ToolKit, I created a backup with CW Recovery, did a full wipe and installed Android Revolution HD 40 on both devices and after that they started working really slowly, mostly after I turn the screen off and wait a while.

When I turn the screen back on it takes several seconds to turn back up and other simple uses are very slow.

I tried several other ROM's but the result is the same so far.

Did this on 2 Galaxy S3's so I think I bricked something along the way I just don't know what, rooting backing up and flashing a new ROM went without a hiccup

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] LycanNyc:
Hi everyone, I just unlocked my T-Mo HTC One and not sure whats the problem but my At&t GoPhone sim is just not working (no network no signal) and when there is for a few seconds I see the 2G symbol or G symbol and goes back to X.

I can't say the unlock went wrong because I entered the unlock code and my phone picked up the Att GoPhone APN settings on its own.

My StraightTalk Tmo Sim works on HTC One but At&tGoPhone sim is not really retrieving signal but it detects the GoPhone APN automatically which are correct. ST Tmo sim card & GoPhone sim both work fine on my Unlocked Tmo iPhone5

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
The issue with the touch screen after pressing the power button is a hardware issue so it doesn't really matter whether you disable the function of the power button, what you need to do is make sure you don't use the power button to wake the screen up and find an alternative way to lock the screen (there are plenty of widgets/solutions on the Play Store).

So i was annoyed by mymagazine being only 1 swipe away and being accessed by the double tapping home button. So i turned off the home button setting and then then turned off my magazine. it wasnt an issue but i ended up just rooting my phone and then uninstalled all the bloat apps....including mymagazine.

Now when ever i double tap the home button my TouchWiz crashes. however, if i swipe up, it just goes to the play store and says item cannot be found.

i really hope that we get some way to swap out the my magazine for google now or something useful. anyone know a work around that doesnt involve a different launcher??

I am glad HTC nows allow us to manually set the Sleep time (to turn off data)

However, i dunno how to turn the feature "on"

in 4.2.2 We turn on Sleep mode by clicking On

In 4.3, When i turn Sleep mode OFF, i can set the time manually or "Learn sleep mode"

however, when i turn Sleep mode ON, i cannot set anything.

So am i suppose to leave it ON or OFF?

[Moto X Q&A] Gogz_:
Good day all,

I'm considering importing a Motorola Moto X to the UK and was wondering if anyone could help answer some questions so that I may pick the right model. I haven't been able to find my answers specifically in other posts.

As I understand it, only the Rogers model has the 2600Mhz band (band 7) which will allow the phone to use 4G in the UK.

Unfortunately only the 16Gb model is available which isn't much good to me.

I see however that the 4.4 leak on AT&T Moto X unlocks this band 7, however the recommendations are not to buy an AT&T model.

Is this because the AT&T model is not sim unlockable? Or can i not flash stock google to the AT & T phone?

If this is not the case is it possible to flash the rodgers radio say, to a developer edition 32Gb phone?

In short, is there a way to flash different basebands across the Moto X?

Cheers,

Gordon
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
If you want band 7 LTE and 32gb I think the only possible option that exists right now is the AT&T model. They are simlocked from factory and will require an unlock code. Most of the time they can be unlocked but there are a few cases where no unlock code seemed to work. They cannot be bootloader unlocked which means you can only run AT&T firmware.

They also don't officially support band 7 LTE, but at this time it does appear to be enabled.

The modem files/baseband files can be flashed between the different models however that does not change the basic band support built into the phone. The only model made with band 7 LTE hardware support is the XT-1058.

The Rogers version can be flashed with the retail/dev edition firmware(after the bootloader is unlocked) but it will always only have 16gb of storage, they don't offer a 32gb version(silly Rogers). The Rogers version is also simlocked from factory but unlock codes are 8 dollars or less and are easy to get.

Overall the AT&T firmware isn't that bad, most of the bloat can easily be disabled, as long as they don't remove band 7 support and it is simunlocked you'll be fine, and you can have your 32gb. (and you get a bonus AT&T logo on the back of the phone)
[Moto X Q&A] Gogz_:
Thanks for your quick response Steve-x.

I see now that the Band 7 radio is a hardware rather than a software feature and that it's specifically an XT1058 I'm after.

I have just one more question in that case and I guess it's aimed at those with knowledge or experience of AT&T...

If I were to get an AT&T phone on leak 4.4 and AT&T were later to release the official 4.4 which blocked band 7 (or even a patch which blocked band 7) would this be pushed to my phone? Or is it the case i can stick to the leaked 4.4 without ever upgrading?

Cheers,

Gordon
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] rogerpilly:
hello everybody,

I just purchased a GG yesterday, after reading a lot of your posts and thank you all for it. What convinced me was the new update that brings full notifications and better battery life. So far, I like it a lot, but of course 1 day is not enough.

There are 2 things I would like to ask other owners, who might have had it for longer time.

I read the post about the IP55 rating, but I would like to know if somebody really dropped it in water (most likely unintentionally), drop some water/liquid on it, got heavy rain, ecc. In other words, something more than washing hands or sweat.

Second point regards scratches. There are a lot of posts about this all over Internet, but very controversial. I would like to know if any of you had any scracth on the glass, the case or the buckle. If any of you experinced any serious bump, drops and so forth. I read somewhere that the GG has sapphire glass, but I seriously doubt it, as usually these glasses are very expensive and are used mostly on more expensive watches.

Thining logically, Samsung should have considered these issues, as after all, it is a watch and you want to wear it, so some kind of protection shluld be there. But I learnt that logic does not always work.

Any advice/experience you would like to share will be much appreciated!!!

Thank you very much,

Roger
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lukasz:
I am using GEAR since end of OCT.

- water resistance - rain, drops of water is OK for the watch - if You search the forum you will even find the movie with the gear under kitchen tap water flowing on it. It is NOT ok for shower, swimming, diving etc. Generally - keep it away from water when possible. GEAR build quality is OK

If You wonder how SONY watch behaves - check their forum - a lot of complains and quality issues in general like http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2574988

- scratch resistance - Gear glass is NOT scratch resistant! it scratches very easy so keep it away from any hard objects, sand, metal, etc. Generally speaking- with the product life of maximum 1 year ( yes, we may expect GEAR II not later than September 2014) scratch resistance is not so important, and Samsung for sure will not use sapphire for the glass - it is too expensive.

I have washed my hands with mine on and have gotten water on it (even into the speaker area) no problems so far. Regarding scratched, I put on a skinomi shield (invisible shield type). Looks awesome! Super clear and can barely see it's on. I got the full body which has a cover for under the watch (not too sure why you would need it but I put on since it came with it). I should let you know that with the full body cover, the charger takes some work to get it to close but it's definitely close-able. Have fun with you new gear. I know I am.

Had mine for awhile as well. I don't worry about washing my hands or rain. Just wouldn't submerge it to be on the safer side. Scratches... The speaker clasp is pretty scratched up but I'm not too concerned about it. As for the face, I have hit/bumped/scraped on things such as desk, doors, walls, etc. So far it has held up well with no noticeable scratches. However I always worry every time I do bump it.
