I bought several cases so far and always end up going back to Slim Armor. It adds a bit of bulk but the protection is great. I actually dropped my phone 3 times from about pocket height on ceramic tiles and tarmac and once when my 9mo son smashed it on the marble table. Took the phone out and not a single damage on it. I admire the stealthy look of the black one plus the cut out are very precise. Only downside is the bottom part where the micro USB port sits has a slight gap that do tend to collect dust but I can live with that :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] t1.8matt:
My Slim Armor case has been in my city for 5 day's and they won't let me pick it up. Damn FedEx. I ordered a case from Trident after I ordered the Spigen and I'm already getting that one today. Irritating. How long has it taken people ordering this case from Amazon to receive theirs?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] PsychDrummer:
Thanks, I use the case but I haven't really dropped it yet (luckily). Was wondering if the protection was really good on it. Of course drops vary and anyone can get unlucky but it's still nice to hear.

I was actually in a rush to get mine because I didn't want to walk around too long without a case so I paid for two day shipping. It is prime eligible though. Most items that are prime eligible even if you don't have prime and choose the 3-5 day shipping it gets there fairly quickly. At least in my experience.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] t1.8matt:
I'm just anxious cause it really looks one a great case and it's ridiculous to have a package sit a couple miles from your house for 5 days. It was sent FedEx smart post, which goes from shipper, to FedEx, then to my post office. Doesn't sound too smart to me.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] _jordan_:
I laugh at the online reviews of this case, where the reviewer separates the two halves and then struggles to put the case on the phone.

It is a two piece case, but it is made to be used like a one piece case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] twister99403:
This really is a fantastic case! Only complaint I would throw out there is coming from the diztronic tpu case this thing is slippery as hell compared to the phone or the diztronic but I love the looks and seems like this case would for sure withstand a good fall.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] t1.8matt:
Sounds good. I should hopefully have it tomorrow as I seen my post office FINALLY has it. Keep my fingers crossed, especially since I'm disappointed in another case I got today.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] t1.8matt:
Is there a certain way you put the phone in the case? I know you keep the two parts together but how do you start the phone in the case and get it the rest of the way in?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] _jordan_:
Volume buttons first. Doesn't really matter.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] t1.8matt:
I can say I'm very pleased with the Slim Armor. Install was simple. Very good looking case, got the black one. Very clean looking. I will say that the power button is a tad harder to push, but nothing to give a negative review about, definitely no where near as hard to push as the Zerolemon battery case for my Galaxy Nexus. All in all, very much worth the money and the wait I had to get it.

It's too big. Sent back

[Nexus 5 Accessories] Lownita:
I cut both buttons from the rest of the case on one side, so now they press a lot easier.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] t1.8matt:
What do you mean you cut them? You cut the rubber button covers completely off so the buttons are exposed?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] _jordan_:
He pry made an indentation with a razor or something to make the buttons easier to press...

I tried this with another device and ended up butchering the case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] t1.8matt:
I'm not gonna attempt to take a razor to my case, its not that big of a deal. Not worth accidentally screwing it up.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] vicorama:
I have the black on black slim armor. Its great. The power button is a little stubborn but I can live with it.

I slide mine in either power button side first, or volume button side. Both at an angle and just press it together to snap it in place.

To remove my phone i pretty much peel the top of case off and use my finger to push out the phone in the cut out for the camera hole.

And I still left that little sticker that covers the camera lens... i know.. i know... but it keeps the lens from getting scratched up
[Nexus 5 Accessories] t1.8matt:
It was definitely harder getting the case off than putting it on, had to do the peel method like you said you did. But easily the best quality case I have ever owned and I've bought a lot of cases through a bunch of phones.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wyvernruler5:
I have a Nexus 7 2012 that is about 1 years old and I love dearly. The problem is, I can't get it to connect to my pc. I have done extensive research here, and I can't seem to find any details about this problem or steps towards solving it. It is not simply an issue of bad cables or drivers incorrectly installed, seeing as I have used the same cables on my HTC One and they have worked fine, as well as I have tried Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Linux Ubuntu 13.10. There is no reaction from device manager whatsoever on any system. The nexus does not recognize that there is anything but an outlet on the other end of the cord. I do have working ADB installed on both Windows 7 and the Ubuntu setups. This may have something to do with a car charger I used a while back. I am willing to try internal repairs if that is necessary and someone has pointers, but I need to know what I am looking for.

I am a technology student who regularly does internal repairs on all manner of devices, so feel free to technical terminology if you feel the need. I should be able to follow along. Thanks for all of your help in advance.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
If it is not a driver issue or USB cable issue than I would go to firmware/software on tab first. In other words flash latest factory image and see if this helps at all.

If not than from what you have described I would assume the USB post on tab has a bent or broken pin, often just peeking in there will make it obvious but not always. You may be able to clean up port or bend a pin back into place but if you can't than you would need to solder in a new port. Luckily they are cheap ($5?) And so long as you are an experienced solderer than its rather easy to disassemble this tablet and solder in a new one

Best of luck!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wyvernruler5:
Alright, I can't flash anything without being connected to some sort of computer, at least to my knowledge. Even wireless adb has a wired setup process. If you have anything as a workaround for that, that would be cool, though. As for soldering the port internally, this device is WAY easy to disassemble from what research I have done, and while I understand soldering conceptually, I have not actually done it in practice. I assume that soldering on a mobile system would be even more difficult.

On a separate note, I don't suppose that there is a change it would have actually damaged the flex cable would it? I feel like that's a possibility and it sort of worries me.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
If you're rooted you can flash a new ROM through recovery, just download ROM direct from tablet, if you still have a locked bootloader you can't do anything without a working USB

If you haven't soldered before this isn't the time to learn, if you have some electronics you don't mind screwing up play around with those first or just find someone to do it for you

Yes its way easy to disassemble
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wyvernruler5:
Mine is a virgin device running stock Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat. Do I need special solder, or is normal electrical solder fine?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Standard electrical solder, some flux, desolder ribbon, and a temp adjustable iron should be all you need. But its rather fine soldering so I don't recommend you do this on first attempt, practice on some old cheap electronics
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wyvernruler5:
Alright. I am gonna take a look at replacing that whole flex cable because that seems quicker and less risk to the device. It is a bit more expensive, though. Round about $35 plus some smaller screwdrivers that I happen to have at my disposal.

I'll post updates as I work on it, for anyone watching this thread and that are interested.

[Sony Smartwatch] md.stage:
Hello,

I m a mobile developer, and I would like to develop an app for a family need : a medicament reminder, using NFC.

The idea is :

- Display/notify with a reminder when a medicament have to be taken

- This reminder can be canceled only with NFC, that would be the pill box. (can be snoozed or really canceled without the box if needed of course)

The thing is that would be for a person without a smartphone, as a watch is much more easy to always keep.

The point that will decide if I write this app or not is the following:

Can the Sony SW2 be a independent device using the NFC feature ?

The app could be installed + configured from a computer, but then the SW2 would be used only as a normal watch but with this app as a special feature.
[Sony Smartwatch] themissionimpossible:
Please consider that without owning a smartphone the SW2 doesn't even start: bluetooth pairing is needed just out of the box.

No direct NFC use is currently possible: I suspect that the SW2 behaves passively just like a NFC tag.

Alternatively, you could try to develop an app that loads data from a smartphone (not a computer) but then could also work without an active BT connection, e.g. a schedule reminder.
[Sony Smartwatch] md.stage:
Thanks for the answer.

I own a smarthphone, so then when I install the app I could use it to start the watch.

But "No direct NFC use is currently possible" makes it much less interesting to me...

Yes that's a possibility, but it removes all the interesting point of the feature, making the alarm stoppable only on very precise conditions (here the nfc...)
[Sony Smartwatch] md.stage:
I m really not familiar with this environment, but does anyone knows if that could be doable using another os/firmware ?

Using the open-smartwatch-project or what is proposed on the github underverk / SmartWatch ? (cannot yet post link because of spam prevention)

As you can see from the picture, there's a little spot on the phone. It appeared there about 2months ago and never went away/got any bigger so I concluded it's part of the anti shatter film deteriorated? I was in HK when this happened!

Has this happened to anyone else?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
Can you not provide a clearer picture? It is far too blurry.

Should you still have valid warranty I'm sure Sony won't mind replacing the screen protector.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bryanky5:
Sorry i think what's app compressed the image so it's not that good (i used another person's phone to take the pic then send it to me through what's app). But i will try get a better picture later

But it's not that big of a deal for me, it's definitely not a situation where i want to get a new phone, I'm just curious as to if it happened to other people or not.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Yep happened to many. its the anti-finger print coating. It comes off very quickly.

Everyone that had this happen to now puts a screen protect on it. It will get worse... so bad that you'll send it back.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
Though I understand why Sony uses an anti shatter film I cannot understand why they made them so soft? Within 24 hours of indoor use on my XZ I could see minute scratches.

I Ordered the same time I ordered the Ultra some screen protectors but they have not arrived yet. That bloomin shatter proof film has been a real pain in the butt for so many owners. Removing it voids the warranty here. Two plastic protective covers certainly causes picture deterioration. No way in hell would I use a pencil on the standard soft anti shatter film though.

Sony tend to get so close to producing near perfect devices then nearly always drop the ball on some silly trivia. Very odd company? :p

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I actually read last week that Sony is required by Japanese law to use anti-shatter films on their handheld devices so people don't get hurt when they shatter. I'm not sure if this is indeed true, but i read it twice last week (can't remember where i read it though, but it was on tech site).
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
I've had my ultra several months now and as of now, the screen protector is just as it was from day one. Lucky me!

It is, however, a fingerprint magnet!

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] stiggy2012:
I removed the screen protector on mine a while back, and its much better. The touchscreen works better, the feel of glass is nicer and its far more scratch resistant. The only downside is that without a proper oleophobic coating I need to apply rain-x every couple of weeks or the screen picks up smudges. :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bryanky5:
Yeah I'm buying a screen protector..I will get a tempered glass one later. I can't seem to buy the Armorz one though :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:

I got a highly annoying scratch in the middle of the screen on the factory protector after just three days that was very visible when the screen was on. I never put protectors on my phones and I never get scratches after months of use.

So I removed the protector and go naked from now on as I always do.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nathlynn22:
Supposedly Sony replace for new anti shatter protector after each repair is that correct? As I asked for mine to be changed and Ok they said yes. So if that's the case why did people remove the anti shatter film and just void their warranty instead of getting Sony to change it. Plus I had problems with my Usb port and Usb cover so sending it off tomorrow :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] stretchwookie:
some people prefer the feel of the glass. also, its a HUGE fingerprint magnet (more than any pure glass ive ever used).

im in the middle of removing mine right now. its incredibly tedious and annoying, but itll be worth it once i get my glass-m on it!

:good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nathlynn22:
Or put the glass m over the top and not void warranty. It may be a finger print magnet I no that. But I'd rather wipe it and carry on instead of spending about a scary tedious 2-3 hours taking it off voiding warranty just for some finger prints. Just my opinion but still. I gotta send mine off hopefully tomorrow though. I hope they fix my problems without charging me etc.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] stretchwookie:
Just finished. Took a little under an hour. I had some scratches on the screen, so I didn't wanna spend $40 on a screen protector to place over the scratches. Also, I've read about screen distortion and reduced sensitivity when placing a protector over the stock ASP. I know not everyone experiences it, but with my luck, I would... Lol. I hope you get yours taken care of fast and at no charge, mate.

Hey guys,

I have searched so many threads and still I have issue with low space.

Currently I'm on CM11, partitioned an 8GB external sdcard to fat32 and ext2 (1GB). Link2sd is running fine. However when my internal space reaches around 800MB, I can't install apps anymore!!!

I have also used internal to external app and ext2sd from k2wl...it does swap space but the issue is I can't install any apps after that. Is there a better way to work around this issue?

Thanks in advance ;)
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sharingan:
remove unnecessary storage apps and just keep link2sd

also wipe sd ext in recovery and remount script then see if it works

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guynan:
Remove your battery, check the little patch behind it for water damage. That is all I can think of. Because flashing those .ftfs is literally wiping your device as clean as it will go. So it sounds like something wrong more on the hardware side of things. Because if you have an issue in one ROM, if it is software related, it should not transcend into the other.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Skatosakoulas:
i had bought a new battery because the old one was a little buffed. the upside was that it kept going until the screen timeout, when with the old battery it would restart instantly after the sony ericsson screen. Could it be kernel issue or something like that? The device was my brother's who took care of it alot. he never droped it or anything. My last guess is that he charged it with a different charger not optimal for the device, that's why the buffed battery and the hardware issue! sounds plausible?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Skatosakoulas:
i just asked him and he told me he actually did, multiple times. Does this senario stand?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pras_92:
I think it may be probably a kernel problem....try using SEUS or Sony PC companion and flash latest firmware in your phone..i think it will work..:good:
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guynan:
It won't be a kernel issue if you have fully flashed stock .ftfs. But booting to the first Sony Erricson boot screen would usually indicate a kernel issue or problem with the chargemon.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Skatosakoulas:
pc companion was the first thing i tried, before buying a new battery.didn't make a difference. as i told before, is it plausible that the charging with a non sony ericsson charger caused the problem? i tried 3 stock roms, i don't think its a sw problem anymore. i am thinking of taking it to sony's tecs to give it a look but i don't want them to play smartasses on me so tracking the problem as much as possible would be a good start.
