G2 Brothers,

I recently bought a brand new G2, I have no accessories for G2 and I have not tried any yet. I like the G2 Flip Cover a little from watching it on YouTube, but I havent tried it. So maybe someone can help me decide from a few questions:

1) Does the Flip Cover add a lot of weight on the phone and is the phone still comfortable to use with that cover?

2) Would it be more appropriate to just buy a regular screen protector instead? Adds no weight, but does it mess up the screen quality a lot?

3) Any other cover or specific screen protector (there are many models) I should consider for my new G2?

Hope I can get some useful input from those who are experienced G2 users :)

Thanks in advance.

Regards

PS: I see a few old Optimus 2X users who have moved here too, special hi to you ;)
[G2 Accessories] 60nine:
;)

btw i don't use a screen protector (at least not yet)

but i can reccomend a Nekeda case (slim, gives better grip, doesn't ruin the sleek G2 design and it costs around 10$ on ebay)
[G2 Accessories] natalya:
Look Ma! Its [MENTION=4656786]60nine[/MENTION] :D

Appreciate your reply. I'm thinking a flip cover is "better" since it covers both the back and the screen?

Will keep looking, that Nekeda case looks really cool, but how about the flip cover? :D

Edit: I will drop the flip cover. Too many people say it scratches your display because of the metal. I will buy a screen protector and maybe also a Nekeda case.

Again, any specific screen protector I should go for?
[G2 Accessories] kindacrazyazn:
There will be people who tell you to get a glass screen protector and other who won't. I have been told not to get one but that is just from my source. I have a screen protector from xtremeguard. They usually have pretty decent coupons. This screen protector covers everything except a little section by the camera, sensor and ear phone at the top of the phone. I am not sure how the Nekeda case fits. but I have the Spigen Slim Armour and the tech21 impact case, and both of them tend to push the screen protector up and cause some bubbles at the edge, which can be annoying but I just end up trying to push it back down. Hope that helps with your choice. There is a thread on glass screen protectors if you are interested in those.
[G2 Accessories] lostindark:
Hey i'm using original window case with screen protector ..and until the moment 3 months no any scratches only camera glass has one light scratch but it comes from my zip pocket. If you are sick like me :) and dont wont any scratches i recomend this configuration.

Not sure if I follow this, is this to replace my Gmail app? Or run alongside it?

And if it is to run alongside it does that mean I will have two apps draining the battery receiving emails rather than one?
[Android Apps and Games] stras1234:
great app so far, ive been dying for this very feature.

some comments:

1. if i delete the email that is the only notification, the popup should close.

2. often i cannot delete an email (a toast message tells me so)

3. often my notification tone does not play

other than these 3 annoyances, right now im very happy. keep updating!
[Android Apps and Games] stras1234:
4. not getting the popup notification... last lines of the diagnostic log are in the screenshot

manually slecting 'check now' sure woke it up!

How about customization of the buttons? Rather than close, Archive, Delete, Reply might be better?

Looks like a great app, just what I was looking for.

Can you add the option to use the built-in Android accounts, or something like OAuth? Nothing personal, but I'd rather not provide my password to a new app.

Can you add custom IMAP port support?

I have a SGS3 from ST my sons friend thought he was some kind of genus phone god and was gonna, so he said make it faster. all he did was soft brick it. moral there is never forget your phone at home while at work.

It took me almost two years I believe but I got a rom on it. I went with wicked sensations 5 and anaconda as a theme. It made the phone fast and looks awesome cudos you guys, great design. There is just one problem its on sprints atm's and I cant for the life of me figure out how to change it. I tried every trick I could think of. it wont allow me to use any program off Google store and it wont allow me to do it manually. The mobile settings arnt even even there and there is no manual place to manually change any thing please guys I am begging for help. mean while I am wasting my $45.00 card and money does not come easy to me I am disabled for the time being while my neck and back heal. So please please tell me how to change to ST numbers I have the numbers it just doesn't give me a place to put them.:(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mablake184:
I'm thinking that you are talking about APNs not ATMs. I have placed a link in the post that may help you out. I see you are posting in the Sprint forum and the link is for the Verizon S3 so this is mostly a "here is basically what you're looking for." You will need to flash the ZIP file while in recovery for the APNs to work. In my experience I have always had to flash right after I initially flash the ROM but before I reboot, other people may have had other experiences. You might try a google search for: Straight Talk APN S3 Zip verizon/sprint/at&t/etc.

On a side note, your post has some errors with the terminology and grammar used. The biggest part here is using the proper terms. I think you would have better success if you did that.

I'm sorry if I come off like a mean person but I want to be helpful. I really do wish you the best.
[General Questions and Answers] milestone97:
Hey guys,

is the ROM actually important for a good battery life?

Or is it the kernel?

As an example if you run MIUI and Cyangonmod, will both of them have a comparable battery life? (same kernel and settings, deepsleep etc. works)
[Sprint LG G3] Will32:
I don't think this is possible, but if it is, please tell me how to do it.

I love my knock code from screen off, i like how it bypasses the lock screen and goes right where i left off at. The problem is.. I don't have shortcuts that way. Id like to make more knock codes. As an example, id like a separate knock code too open my messaging app, or a certain game, or music, etc.

Am i missing something? Can this be done through unrooted stock? If not, how could i get this request to someone at LG that could potentially make it happen?

I know i can long press volume buttons from screen off to get a couple of shortcuts, but i can't program it for apps that i choose. Im site that can be done after root tho.

Sent from my Sprint G3
[Sprint LG G3] R2DeeTard:
Im sure that once we get root on our variant, that someone will come up with a way to do this, as it isn't an impossible feature to think about developing. It would have to be baked into a custom rom, or submitted to the Xposed framework or a developed app.

Hi,

I have updated my BA mobile (It's a QTEK ) from WM2003 to WM2005.

I had a 5.03.02 english release before installing french pack update.

Everything is ok , just ONE trouble at the moment : When the power saving arives, the mobile can't be turned on after !!

When trying to set the power adjust, it says : power program missing or not signed to run with WM2005.

What is the name of the program, where is he (\windows ??), can someone send me one (even in english ...)

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] valve90210:
Hi All

Currently my tablet is on 4.4.2 and rooted using the wugfresh Nexus Root Toolkit.

I was greeted with the system update notification a couple of weeks (or more can't really remember) ago but I'm unsure how I go about updating as I'm rooted.

Can I just run the OTA update?

If I can do so will I lose root? Can I then re root it using the wugfresh toolkit again?

If anyone can give me any really simple advice I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mulperi:
I did. Your root is lost after OTA, but just re-run the excellent Wugfresh tool to get root back. Really simple.

Beware though that if you have used xposed, it might might have messed with your /system folder maling OTA upgrade to fail.

Good luck and don't worry.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] valve90210:
Thanks for your reply. I gave this a whirl yesterday, got the 4.4.3 update installed, then the 4.4.4 update installed. As you say I lost root but was still unlocked so reran Wugfresh Nexus Root Toolkit (the latest version) and voila, I'm rooted and on 4.4.4 :)

Luckily I hadn't done anything too much, literally just rooted to be able to run AdAway and a couple of other bits, so it all worked nicely.

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Andrea45:
Hello everybody!

I'm writing from Italy. I had a Z1 Compact that I returned to Amazon for water damages.

Now I'm thinking of buying another phone (I think Moto X) because I had some problems with Z1 Compact.

Before buying the Moto X, I'll try to find if this problems can be solved so I can buy another Z1 Compact, that is a nice phone.

My problems (not mine, but of all the Z1 Compact) were:

- Camera: The camera was pretty good, but I hated the way that it recorded videos. The stabilization was good but, moving a little the hand, all the edges of the figures blurred, and above all the focus was really slow and inaccurate;

- Audio recording: The audio recoding was really bad... I didn't like the recorded audio quality at all, it seemed like it was underwater, the quality was always crappy IMHO, and with big volumes (concert, disco) it was really really distorted;

(for these camera and audio problems I tried different camera softwares, but they were even worse than the Sony original one!)

- Multimedial audio: The multimedial audio was really low and with a normal (but not good or excellent) quality. I tried this boost; it improved the speaker volume (even if the quality wasn't good at all) but not the headphones one;

- Screen and battery: Screen's colours didn't impressed me, they were always faded. Battery was good but non excellent (however, these aren't big problems).

Now... Can I solve this problems in some ways or they are unsolvable hardware problems?

Thank you so much. Bye!
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] aigaming:
There is no perfect mobile in the market and it's the same for our phone z1c;)

I love this phone,for me camera is nice,video recording is good(way better then some phones i have tried(yeah its not real camcorder),audio is great recording quality and with sound boost speaker is enough loud for my taste;) Cheers

That's how this phone work's and if you don't like it you can always try another with things that suits you more ;) cheers

ps. I have yet to meat the person that holded our phone for the first time,played with it and said "this phone sucks" ;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] marsx1984:
If you think the Moto X is a better phone overall just buy that one. If you don't like the screen,battery,camera and multimedia related stuff what's left for you to like about this phone ?! This site can only tweak some aspects about a phone , not change it entirely.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Andrea45:
I like it because it's compact and very powerful. Plus, I like Sony interface.

But I hate the problems I listed, so I asked to know if I can solve it with mod or tweak or they are hardware "issues" and so not solvable... ;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] TheEndHK:
The problem you listed almost all can be partly solved but there is no bugs free or perfect android phone in the world because your requirement is very high.

1. In reality, I found many of digital stabilization on smartphone somehow got some drawback like you mentioned. It will also happen on other phone but just maybe in some other ways and the perfect solution is get a OIS like HTC M7, N5(video quality is just normal in my experiences) or LG G2/G3. If you got a real fast cpu and know how to do video editing, there are some software stabilization available and they are all better but very time consuming works.

This camera has details because of 1/2.3" sensor but the focus is bad. If you need a fast and accurate focus then only HTC and Samsung can help you in my experiences, you should consider HTC M7(with OIS) or Galaxy S5 but remember HTC M7 UltraPixel is only 4MP and many guys not satisfy with that.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2730097

Indeed, the z1c focus already improved noticeably in 4.4.4(but still can't beat HTC and Samsung) and with this mod(remember to only flash v7 8MP ver) the image, video and audio quality is also improved. Our tiny phone got a small mic just never expect to get real good quality.

2. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54328280&postcount=53

Many to complain about the multimedia and looking for some complicated solutions but I found it can be easily solved via PowerAMP. The Dynamic normaliser got boost nearly 50% volume in headphone without distort during in my experiences.

3. The screen actually not impressed me either but in general, Sony never use top quality LCD like HTC, LG and Samsung. The IPS screen on z1c is already the 2nd best in Sony history(1st sure is Z2). Battery is ok but it won't be excellent because 2300mah is not enough for S800.

MotoX won't help because it doesn't has dedicated ISP and the camera is bad overall comments on net. MotoX+1 may equipped with dedicated ISP. In your case, actually I would recommend you LG G2. The G2 mod cam is great on xda(but the dev got temp. banned you gonna find some backup download) and it also got OIS. The focus is a little bit accurate than z1c but G2 focus is also same slow, G3 focus is faster. If you think G3 5.5" is too big then consider G3 beat 5". The screen quality and battery is all good on LG.

But if you just want a small flagship, then no choice now only Z1 Compact. Indeed, with 4.4.4 and the mod cam been many things improved.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Andrea45:
I don't like LG phones because they have distorsion with high volume too, and I think that they don't have reception and audio of Moto X.

However, what is a "dedicated ISP"? Thank you.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] drakexpl:
get your phone under warranty. On mine, screen is sharp as knife, audio quality on headphones is a KILLER. Just send it to warranty or whatever. Battery on Z1 Compact is one of the best out here (comparing to i9505, 801n etc). Maybe you have chinese copy ;) Or sell your phone and problem will be solved.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] TheEndHK:
There won't be perfect phone in the world atm as we all mentioned in this thread. You either need to accept one or two problem existed or else your decision making is ridiculous and just wasting your time.

Things changed, LG is much better now. But if you want good audio, I think only HTC BoomSound and Sony Z2 S-Force speaker do the job on android. HTC M7 got OIS and BoomSound but the camera is just 4MP. Nokia almost did all things you want but it is a WP device. If you are so like MotoX then just get it, don't ask.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] burnstine:
i've several phones here: N4 / N5 / One Mini / Xcover2 / Moto G / Z1c

washed out Colors? That would Fit N5, not Z1c. Z1c has great colours, only the blacks are to black

Audio sucks? have you exer listened to N4 / N5 / Xcover? I mean, it is not HTC Boomsound, but it is a phone, and thats okay. The only real drawback from a One: like all Phones with one Speaker, is does matter how you hold it while listening to the speaker...

are you sure your z1c has no physical problem?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] zike47222:
For audio recording i guess you are using the stock recording app? I use the app ASR and it is amazing. beautiful stereo audio.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] mosespl:
In apps and themes section is mod which one activate headspeaker and when you listen to music 2 speakers works fine and you have stereo music;) the same situaton is when somebody calls to you 2 spekares are on:) about camre i think that update after update something is changed and works always better. Nothing is perfect remember that everyone!:):)))

Screen is great really great but no compete with old s2 super amoled

i have both fones and when i compare in the same situations amoled was always better but this is my own private opinion. I was thinking for a long time about changing my s2 and z1c is the only one phone for me there is no better phone in this size:)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] TheEndHK:
I come from HTC One S and also used 4.3" Super AMOLED from Samsung. They both have pros and cons. The color is much accurate on IPS but lack of contrast and saturation levels, amoled does much better job but somewhat over as we all know. So, they are just 50/50. No winner.

The real advantage is the touch sensitive on amoled is better than IPS panel. But since the galaxy s5 mini spec. is very ****, we have no choice but z1c.
