[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] kafencetu:
advice needed

Hello friends,

I have exactly the issue you are explaining - I am not able to use Odin for installing neither recovery nor official ROM ,

I suppose something goes wrong with the partitions. how I can use this file - only checking the PIT option in Odin with attached PIT file ,

or also I should add simultaneously the Stock Firmware (ROM ) .

Please advice

Thanks for help !

Okay Guys, i have a very strange Question.

My Device is the Sony Xperia Z2

Can i prepare my device in a way so that i can not Root it anymore. Can not flash any Custom Rom or open the Bootloader again ?!

My idea was to use "fastboot oem lock" and then delete my unlock Key... Will this work ?

:eek:

Sorry for my bad English
[Off-topic] Jesse72:
I don't have the answer, but may I ask why?
[Off-topic] karandpr:
Flash Stock Firmware

then use

fastboot oem unlock.

then pray and hope that Sony issues security patches on time to avoid exploit based rooting methods.

Should be good to go.

Can you or can you not access your phone memory (or card) using Active Sync to read/write data?

dont have a card... so yes i can use explorer to dump files on...

put the zip file into my documents but it wont extract... says there is no application related to it...

What the zip file contains?

[HTC Startrek] scott_donald:
now trying to do this bit...

Run Command Prompt, go to your temp folder and then into a subfolder named "build". Run pdocread without arguments.

6. Note the value of "uniqueid" produced. It will be something like: 00 00 00 00 12 03 02 14 3b 07 1b b2 04 05 07 54

7. Run pdocread again with these arguments: pdocread -n 1 0x000000 0x10000 -b 0x4000 original-bdk1.nb This will create a "original-bdk1.nb" file in the build folder (where the pdocread is located).

8. Upload this file and value of uniqueid to http://www.spv-developers.com/strtrkCID It will open a new page after few seconds. Go to the bottom of the page and click the link "Download patched BDK1"

Disconnect your phone, reboot your PC/laptop, restart your phone by turning it off, waiting 5-10 seconds and turning is back on again and try again.

I emailed iloome.com about the status of a tempered glass screen protector for the Note Edge and recieved the following reponse.

[From: iloome Support support@iloome.com

"Dear Valued Customer,

Thank you for your inquiry. We are working on it as we speak, and will be released sometime in January!

Thanks,

I keep seeing posts from people asking about tempered glass protectors so I figured I would pass this info along.

I had an iloome flex on my Note 3 and it worked like a champ. The screen on the edge will shatter if you drop it I had to get an insurance replacement from asurion a week and a half after I got the edge but, since I hadn't filed any claims before my deductible was half the usual.
[Note Edge Accessories] BuHaneenHHHH:
Thanks for the info

I looking for a temepered glass for my note edge

These regular screen protectors are so annoying once you get used to temepered glass screen protectors
[Note Edge Accessories] Oditius:
I love the Tempered Glass... But hate Assuron. The deductible too high. So I went with Square Trade, only $5 a month and a $75 deductible. :o
[Note Edge Accessories] DMax99:
Wow.. Thats an awesome news. Thanks for the info ;)

Glass protectors definitely work better and last longer than normal protectors
[Note Edge Accessories] LaurieC64:

The Edge is more than delicate - my second week with it and the "Flip" case they push you to buy is a waste of $40 of course when dropped landed on the "edge" looks like a windshield from a crash. Want to locate good case before turning it in to insurance :(
[Note Edge Accessories] vncekan:
I went ahead and sent an email to the iLoome Support email address from the post you just quoted to hopefully show there is more interest in a tempered glass screen protector.

We will be announcing its release at the end of January!

I'm looking for a tempered glass protector. Hope they make this. Those other screen protectors dull the HD and lighting of the display.
[Note Edge Accessories] dieselhomey:
Hopefully it covers the whole screen over the edge. I have a regular cover and it sucks with finger smudges

you are telling me, I just put on the armor suit screen protector and after a session with my stylus.. you can see under the light where it has been,.

Looks good news, is it 0.15 or 0.2mm?
[Note Edge Accessories] noobsquared:
I was looking online to find a tempered glass but I didn't see any. Has there been any progress on the tempered glass one? I think it's kind of hard to put tempered glass or make one. I just don't want to get plastic or wet kind since s-pen doesn't work as well on those IMHO.

Hey man, I was just wondering if you heard anything else from them regarding tempered glass?

Ask.. www.iloome.com contact Us here and you might hurry them up a bit. But they said the end of January and that has a week to go. I know how you feel, I really want to rid myself of this plastic Skinnomi... LoL

iloome will not release the tempered glass screen protector for the note edge until late february.

[Note Edge Accessories] Sicalo:
Possible Glass Cover for Edge

[/COLOR]As I have myself been following this thread for a while, I figured I would submit a find of mine from the great internet, if nothing more then to gather some opinions of the find.

I found an overseas company called "BeautifulTech" that currently has a screen protector, and to quote (my emphasis in bold/italics)

Real tempered glass, strong hardness

High transparency, excellent hand feeling

Only 0.3mm thin

Secure anti-explosion function

Oleophobic, anti-fingerprint

Arc edge design, smooth and safe

The direct link to this is (sorry I have almost no posts, so outside links are currently banned for me, you will have to un-space the link)

h t t p : / / w w w . beautifultech . c o m /0-3mm-curve-tempered-glass-screen-protective-film-for-samsung-galaxy-note-edge.html?currency=AUD&gclid=CjwKEAiArqKmBRCOj_qfmuqinnYSJAAkAYwG0H6e91z5qPAw03oRmu3LLTYtCLtH6u06tAaO3P9MVBoCM6Xw_wcB

Seems inexpensive, so I am thinking of taking the gamble for a shot at a passable tempered glass protector until a higher quality one arrives.

Thoughts?
[Note Edge Accessories] niqen:
i don't really know. i looked them up on facebook. only 31 likes on their page. no inputs.

their youtube channel is also dead, with only like 1 subscriber.

and this curved screen protector, they don't even have a proper photo of it,

only of a flat normal one. it just says "screen protector", no branding?

i'll pass. in a good month i'll be able to order from iloome, they provide some of the best quality screen protectors

out there. at least i'll know what i'll be getting.

why i won't buy from beutifultech:

- no product photos. only of something that looks like a note 4 screen protector.

- expensive shipping (unless i don't mind waiting 3-4 weeks).

- product name: "tempered glass screen protective film". so which one is it? glass or film? :eek:

i also tried to contact them through their customer service form on their website.

"unable to submit your request, please try again later".

i'll rather wait.
[Note Edge Accessories] Oditius:
Well, only $5, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Having it sent via snail mail, so but the time it gets here, iloome should have theirs out.
[Note Edge Accessories] DMax99:
The site was created 2014-2015...looks dodgy to me.

It does accept paypal though.. So might be ok to try. Unless it takes you to a fake paypal site and hacks into your account.
[Note Edge Accessories] webdave:
Looks like it only covers the non-curved part of the display.
[Note Edge Accessories] niqen:
it's all bs, i wouldn't touch that with a 10 ft pole. that site smells fake and scam all the way.

if iloome are correct in their latest predictions, their curved tempered glass screen protector for the note edge

will be released this month. best quality there is, probably.. and a much safer bet.
[Note Edge Accessories] idle0095:
I ordered from that site. Hope it really is curved when it comes in. I got tracking already.
[Note Edge Accessories] pieces of cake:
It's garbage. Received mine yesterday. Doesn't even come close to fitting the whole screen. No curvature.

Ah, thanks.
[Note Edge Accessories] tospace2006:
Nice, pictures are at least reassuring that development is going through it's stages
[Note Edge Accessories] sand1303:
thats what im thinking. the home button cutout seems to be smack dab in the middle. if it covered over the curve u would have more screen protector to the right than the left. i have looked on ebay there is a couple glass screen protectors but i think they stop at the end of the flat part of the screen. i don't know if i can take using a plastic screen protector after all this time with glass ones. but i also know i would be annoyed rubbing my finger across the lip of the glass screen protector if it stops at the curve
[Note Edge Accessories] larollin:
Hope they finish this soon. The Note 5 Edge will be out by the time they produce this curved glass screen protector. Lots of phones will have curved displays, ignoring these phones will do no good and someone will make a whole lot of money.
[Note Edge Accessories] DMax99:
Yeah...Galaxy 6 Edge is soon to be announce. Definitely a big market for the curve screen in the near future if not now already!
[Note Edge Accessories] sand1303:
im sure once the galaxy edge comes out there will be more of a push to make curved glass screen protectors. its probably the fact that the note edge is the only device on the market at the time
[Note Edge Accessories] Winstrol:
My recomendation for protect screen of your Note EDGE to use Curved LCD protection Film - this film look and feel like typical screen protector, but absolutely fully curved and what important, protect whole screen!

[Note Edge Accessories] Oditius:
But will there be a Note 5 Edge?
[Note Edge Accessories] PrsnlCrcl:
If there is, I would expect it to be more like the S6 Edge with slight curves on both sides, but that is still a curve.

They're $40 which at this point I don't care I've wasted that on nonsense but I went to order one from Mobile Zap and it says DISCONTINUED!

Guys which plastic screen protector the best in the market now? How is the one from lloomes.?
[Note Edge Accessories] makavelisk:
I have the one from iloome on after my skinomi starting peeling on the edge screen. I like both but they are both very different. The skinomi is is thicker and more dense where the iloome is thinner and smoother. The only thing I don't like about the iloome is it only comes in matte which makes everything look grainy but the spen moves more fluid on the iloome where it drags on the skinomi. Again both have ups and downs and I'll probably put my free replacement skinomi back on in a few months after I see how the iloome holds up.

Oh also due to the thickness of the skinomi it tends to collect gunk and fuz on every edge especially around the home button which looks nasty and drove me nuts.
[Note Edge Accessories] Oditius:
I have the IQ Shield I like the smoothness of it. Barely even tell it is on the phone.
[Note Edge Accessories] makavelisk:
Might try that one next. Wish Iloome would make the Damn tempered glass protector already. I've lost hope.
[Note Edge Accessories] Oditius:
I am happy with this shield, tried several others. Would love a tempered glass one, but if not, then to me this is the next best thing to have on.
[Note Edge Accessories] robroy90:
Does anyone know of a brand of wet apply (using spray) screen protector that is truly optically transparent? Skinomi and IQ Shield say they are "optically transparent" but that is BS. They both have that "orange peel" appearance if you look at the phone at an angle. I want something CRYSTAL CLEAR. I haven't run into a dry apply screen protector that will hold the edge (pardon the pun).
[Note Edge Accessories] Oditius:
Looked at all angels, still don't see any orange or any discoloration on the screen. I have the IQ screen protector. Maybe you got a bad one? I'd email them and request a replacement.
[Note Edge Accessories] arbit12:
It's not orange coloured. When you look at it from an angle it seems to have small ripples like on an orange peel.

Have tried all sorts of protectors from ebay. Looks like the only ones that work on the edge are made from a different material than the normal ones. Hence the slight stickiness and orange peel. I did get a 'classic' one with my zenus case, but it was in 3 parts. One for the main screen and one each for the curved parts. Obviously there was a line where they joined up. So have to live with these.

Having said all that, the one I have is pretty good. It took a week to thoroughly dry out, but now it's very smooth, and has very good clarity. Spen drag is minimal, hardly noticeable. Orange peel is there at angles, but more of an aesthetic irritant than a functional problem.
[Note Edge Accessories] Oditius:
OK, now I know what you are talking about, thanks for clarifying that. Then that I see, it just never bothered me. What sis bother me was the rubbery feeling in the Skinomi.
