Keep in mind that plastic protects better than glass and plastic does not need to be replaced where as most drops will break a glass protector. It is made from a thin easily breakable material after all.

The reason to pay roughly 10x as much for glass is because it feels much nicer on your finger. Plastic can also cause rainbow like reflections and can be a bit harder to apply than one solid piece.

However glass costs a lot more upfront and in the long run to replace. A plastic protector is about $1 and if applied properly won't ever need to be replaced.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] EeZeEpEe:
Yes plastic ones don't break break or need to be replaced but I don't think they provide the same impact protection in absorbing drops. You'll probably have a screen broken under the intact plastic screen protector.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] bblzd:
I have no background on the subject but just thinking about it logically, I don't think glass can be as protective as plastic.

For instance RhinoShield only offers plastic screen protectors. Their test videos show how easily GG would break from certain impacts and how much plastic protects it. Even the best tempered glass can only hope to be as strong as GG.

My basic understanding of the situation is glass protectors work because it breaks and saves the screen underneath, where as plastic works by actually strengthening the glass itself.

However for each time the glass protector breaks and needs to be replaced, the plastic would keep on trucking.

I think the misunderstanding arises when a user drops their phone with a glass protector and it breaks thus "saving" their screen. But what if they had plastic? Would the screen of broken then? What if they had no protector? We can't say for sure what the results would have been. However to the user that is a clear indication of the glass protector working, where as I would say that's only a clear indication of the glass protector breaking easily.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] EeZeEpEe:
Right. That's how I see it as a user. Also, the clarity, feel, and scratch resistance can't be matched by plastic.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] bblzd:
I've actually dropped my 5x naked just once so far and got lucky without any cracks, but I do believe if I had a glass SP it would've broken. In the end I think it's luck and a good case that will protect from a bad drop as the screen protector is mainly for scratch protection. I've kept my glass SP as a backup in case the factory oleophobic coating stops working as effectively.

Another question, the manufacturers say something about 2.5D or 3D, what does that mean?
[Nexus 5X Accessories] EeZeEpEe:
Don't think I've seen 3D being marketed but 2.5 is just the curved edges. Makes it nicer when, for example, sliding out a left menu. However, you don't really get to appreciate it with a case on.

Any reason to order this because of the 3D?

I want to go for the Pleson (though I am really scared about not putting the protector right, since there is only one protector, unlike some manufacturers that ship 2.

Thank you
[Nexus 5X Accessories] savannahluv:
yeah the plastic/clear films work for me.. not a fan of tempered glass..
[Nexus 5X Accessories] EeZeEpEe:
Looks the same as 2.5 to me. My Pleson has been looking just great since the day I installed it. Be sure to do the "hinge" method and really squeeze and rub out the swirls in the corners.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] TheeWolf:
Actually I'm not really sure what that is... :confused:

What about doing it in a bathroom after turning on the hot water in the shower? Also relevant?
[Nexus 5X Accessories] EeZeEpEe:
Hinge method. Gets it centered basically every time.

[Nexus 5X Accessories] LancerEVA06:
I bought the IntelliArmor screen protector. I have to honestly say it's the best screen protector I've ever put or any phone, whether it was mine or someone elses. Also, the oleophobic coating on it is even nicer than the coating on the 5X. Cut is actually almost perfect, has provisions for the proximity sensor and the edges have a very nice chamfer.

Well feel free everyone to continue this thread for others, I already bought the Pleson screen protector because of it's very good reviews here on XDA and on Amazon. Thank you for your help :)

how about G-Color TG? it is 0.2mm only

http://www.amazon.com/Protector-G-Color®-Tempered-Replacement-Packaging/dp/B01744BXCS
[Nexus 5X Accessories] TheeWolf:
Thanks, it looks good, but I actually bought the Pleson protector already.

People, I need your opinions on something else too. As I said I bought the Pleson screen protector already. Since I've never applied a screen protector by myself before (had only two phones and in both of them the screen protector was applied by someone else), I thought that maybe I should buy a cheap one from Ebay as backup (like this one for example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Premium-Rea...hash=item3f55c19b7f:m:my0CzkO9ZCoQ2z-fLfE9uFA).

Is it necessary? I'm just scared I won't get it right the first time and won't have a second chance, and then I can apply the backup protector.

Also, is it possible that applying these really cheap protectors somehow damage the screen?
[Nexus 5X Accessories] bobby janow:
Agree! Not only that but if you screw it up they will send you a new one. They did that for me on the n5. Great tech support too.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d@sh:
Since purchasing this phone I have had a problem getting sound to work while using screen mirroring. The two devices being used are the Sprint version of the 64MB Note 5, and an Amazon Fire TV stick.

Devices:

Note 5 phone is completely stock (using stock ROM)

Amazon Fire TV stick is completely stock (using stock ROM)

Note 5 has the latest available software using: Settings/System/System Update

Amazon Fire TV stick has latest available software (version 54.1.2.3_user_123067020)

Using ATT U-Verse Pace Gateway/Router for Wi-Fi network

Symptom:

When using screen mirroring, the devices pair and video is shown accurately, but sound is played severely muffled and barely audible (sounds like robots underwater, voice tone/pitch sounds very low). I paired and mirrored my old Galaxy S4 on this same Fire TV stick, and it works flawlessly with audio, though the video drops frames and seems to buffer/lag intermittently. Different video players and apps on the Note 5 phone yield the same audio problem when using mirroring.

Please offer any advice or resolution to this problem.

Restarting the phone seems to have fixed the problem. Not sure what the issue is or what causes it, but if I restart the phone it fixes itself. After contacting Amazon they couldn't provide any other info than a claim that it's a known Samsung issue and are blaming the problem on them.

Thanks for the detailed tutorial. I've been wanting to try this for when I'm doing presentations and don't have an internet connection. Your English was just fine. :)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Pantaloonie:
I've also been meaning to try this out, and your post prompted me to do so.

After I press the 'connect' softkey, the status changes to 'check usb cable'.

I then connect the usb cable, and the PC starts the Found New Hardware Wizard, which starts to search for Generic RNDIS drivers. It fails to find them, even using windows update.

And that's as far as I got....
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] rhedgehog:
Have you installed Activesync (XP) or WMDC (VIsta)?

Internet sharing uses the drivers from that to create the connection.

I had activesync 3.8 on my laptop, upgrading to 4.5 has solved the problem, and it all works perfectly now.

mahjong,

What version of BBConnect are you using with your x7500? Did you have to cook your rom to make it work?

I have tried 2.1.2.52 and 4.0.0.67 but both show PIN: Pending and IMEI: Radio Off. I trying not to go through reflashing everything to make this work. :rolleyes:

BTW, I'm from Asturias but living now in sunny caribbean.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] mahjong:
I'm using 2.1.2.54 over WM5 SO 5.1.465 (15673.3.3.1). I installed BB 4 (don't remember the release) once and the X7500 went nuts so I should hard-reset. But 2.1.2.54 works stable for me for months. OK I forgot to mention I'm connecting to a BES server so is not Blackberry Professional. Mine is Blackberry Enterprise.

So I've googled a bit,i could not find a actual solution.But here are some idea's:

Boot you phone i safe mode(on this link is a tutorial on how to do that: https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/FAQ/How-to-boot-your-phone-into-safe-mode/td-p/348008)

If the phone is on then go to settings-display and tick "adaptive brightness" or try untick if its alrady ticked, and then reboot your phone normally.

If that doesn't work out,try botting up without sim card,if it boot up normally go to settings-more- preferred network type and change to 2g.

I'm not saying this will work but this is what i found in 20 min googleing.Hope it works guys.Good luck

[Meizu MX] furious.builder:
MX4 can do this too
[Meizu MX] isko01:
I dont know. Mediatek is using the Helio10 + imx220 to make suoer slow motion. But I relly would like to see this on MX4 and MX5.

Is posiblle someone to make this? :(

P.S. Too bad, why Mediatek dont give camera apk to download. Because they have it.
[Meizu MX] furious.builder:
I think it's due to rights, Meizu may have to pay to have the possibility to use it... Maybe that a really gooood dev will be able to allow this ! :)
[Meizu MX] isko01:
I know that Kernel code for Helio 10 is available to download. So someone who know to work is good to find and make this extra application.

Camera record super slow motion 480fps at 1080p is great!

You have to extract the zip file, there you'll find a *.inf -file. Look in the device Manager for unknown device (of Course, after having connected you LG!!). Then look at Details for Hardware ID's and edit the inf file and write the id's found on device Manager.

It's necessary, that your PC recongnize the LG without a yellow triangle. When this ist done, you can Flash the downloaded kdz-file.

[HTC Droid DNA] Nova1021:
Hi all,

I just got a new phone, so I'm looking to use my old HTC DNA for something. I read that android phones can be used as wifi repeaters, and since the signal in some parts of my house is a bit weak I thought I might as well try it. I just rooted my HTC DNA using Sunshine, and I installed fqrouter2 but I do not see the option to set up the phone as a repeater. Am I missing something, or can the DNA not be used for this purpose?

Thanks!
[HTC Droid DNA] Nova1021:
Problem solved! It turns out I did not actually have root access. I had to flash TWRP and then flash the beta version of superSU (2.52).

With root access I'm able to use the repeater function in fqrouter2, though it seems to create its own network rather than repeating an existing network....
