[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Dumdidum:
Hello

I have an original ROM from my operator (Orange) with WM5. Unfortunately they have not yet put a ROM on their Website.

Now i want to test the WM6 ROM for Artemis, but: I want to be able to go back to my original ROM if needed.

So is there any possibility to dump the ROM (and Radio) anywhere, so that I can reflash it with it?

Is there any manual for that available?

Thanks

Sven

Hi guys, please can you recommend the best screen protectors for the S8+... they have to be case friendly. :good:

I'm currently using Spigen Galaxy S8 Plus Screen Protector NeoFlex with the "TECH21 Evo Check" Case with no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Amjad.AbdulGhani:
I tried almost all whats available in the market, you name it, i tried it (expect for the zagg sphhire, still waiting for it).. Glass and film, tried them all, and i can highly recommend the iq shield wet film, so far the only one that you almost can't see it there, and definitely case friendly (subject to you applying it at the right position as a millimeter makes all the difference).. Try it and you will see.. Spigen wet film will be my second option, only its a bit more visible after applying it and more finger print magnite..

Alllllll, and i mean alllllll glass screen protectors are worthless, i tried at least 10 brands, cheap and expensive, and non works or sticks well, and definitely non is case friendly, the once that are, you can clearly see the adhesive through the glass after applying it, and that makes it soooo ugly..

Yes its

Yep, spigen tough armor and some tempered glass protectors aint compatible. Pushes up. Same thing for any other film protector for the tough armor. Pushes up on almost all i have tried. havent found one that works so im getting over this spigen tough armor.

It doesnt seem available yet for the S8 variants, but Yootech do pre-curved hardish PET protectors for the S6 and S7 variants that works with any case. I have been using them on my S6E+ and only used 2 in 18 months, they are that durable.

Keep your eye out for them, I got mine on Amazon. The only Yootech i can see so far is their wet application one, which is rubbish like everything else is.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] darksidesh007:
I'm using the Otterbox Defender as my initial case, and the CORNICE for the S8+. I would not recommend the Cornice. It slides around, and has a "popping" sound when you press on the screen. My wife is also using the Cornice, dropped her phone, and it shattered the Cornice but the device survived the fall. She was also having this "popping" sound along with others she works with. It sounds like there is air bubbles being popped underneath the protector but there are not . Strange and disappointing.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] dtomlin:
On the skinomi site they also have an updated design. Hope it is okay. I just ordered 4 of them.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] ShrekOpher:
The case friendly Design I linked is working great for me covers the glass completely doesn't get in the way of the skin or the case.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] darksidesh007:
I have the Otterbox Defender as well. Let me know how the screen protector works for you. I have the Cornix Curve and I would NOT recommend it. Slides around, makes a popping sound, but does fit.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Amjad.AbdulGhani:
I bought the old one 2 weeks ago, and they just sent me the updated one for free, waiting for it to arrive..
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] roccom33:
Has anybody tried a non-glass, non-wet apply screen protector? I just want something on there. I don't want glass at the moment because I prefer full adhesive (waiting on Incipio) and I hate the feel of wet-apply protectors.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] sanjsrik:
I bought this one. It has visible lines on the left and right where the screen curves and well, you get what you pay for which in this case, was very little:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XSF3HXF/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's crap on a stick, but honestly, it will do for now.

Wouldn't recommend it, but then again, it was $6.50 as opposed to the $12.97 they were charging for it. Of course, even at $6.50, not a great deal.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] joseption:
Do you have any idea when Incipio might be releasing their screen protector and also how do you know if it will be a full adhesive (from past experience with their products?) I picked up the Ultra Screen Protector from Verizon and it's horrible and doesn't stick to the phone for crap, so I'm returning it tomorrow and taking the risk without having one until I can find something that I am happy with and that works for the price.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] JawjaBill:
I have no issues with the Amorsuit MilitaryShield paired with the Spigen Neo Hybrid case. I am still holding out hope for a decent tempered glass but I decided not to be the guinea pig this time.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] gn4life84:
I knew I should of checked here first.

I spent hours on EBay & Amazon. I wanted a 2 part hard case front and back of the phone. I also wanted a protective rubber shock absorbing layer. Something like the otter box defender that I had on my note 5.

But I didn't want to pay otter box money. OR have to deal with the bulk and size that comes with an otterbox.

I found this COVRWARE Aegis series. http://www.ebay.com/itm/172646159147 It appears to have both a front piece and back of full hard body armor. Plus it has full rubber layer for shock absorbing. It comes with a cheaper full screen protector.

But I thought I would try to make this gold tempered glass protector work with it instead.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Samsung-Galaxy-S8-S8-Plus-S6-Edge-Full-Cover-Tempered-Glass-Screen-Protector-/322049493335?var=511451954853&hash=item4afba54957:g:eek:T0AAOSwzgRWyUE4

From reading this thread it sounds like they may not work together. But for like $20 combined o figured it give it a shot.

Any thoughts on this or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] roccom33:
The Plex Plus Flex for the Google Pixel was the first one to cover the edges with full adhesive. I assume that the Plex Plus Shield Edge for the S8 will be the same.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] SouthernEvo:
My advice is to get some sort of screen shield on them if you are running naked asap . Currently running with a cheap amazon one I found that is similar to the old school Zaggs as a hold me over till something more tempered glass might come along . I had mine for less than a week before it developed a small hairline scratch in the screen . Granted I live in Florida and there is sand everywhere and Im very careful when it comes to my phones . Microfiber cloths when cleaning them and always mindful of my hands before using it . Luck for me the cheap shield adheres to the screen well and cant see the scratch at all (OCD) .
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] droidx2.3.3:
I got the protectors a few days ago. I got the 2 pack with the case friendly one and the edge to edge one.

I tried the edge to edge first and it didn't work at all. The defender made it peel up on the edges.

The case friendly one however does work. But I messed up and got it ever so slightly off to the right side, and I mean only by a couple millimeters, so the case sometimes makes it peel up a bit.

But as long as you get it perfectly centered, it should work just fine with the defender. I may have to try another case friendly one from them once this one no longer is able to be re stuck on the edge.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] roccom33:
It isn't exactly what I thought it would but with the curved edges I suppose it makes sense. The material is like a wet-apply protector without the grippy feel to it.

I failed on the first one.

The second one I got on but didn't apply it perfectly as I found when putting my case back on. That's on me. With that said the protector is noticable with the screen on. It doesn't leave a clear view of the screen... kind of hard to explain. I took it off immediately.

I'll wait for the Olixar TG.

I installed the QDOS Optiguard Glass Curved and it fits with a Spigen Liquid Crystal case which is known to be quite a bad match with screen protections.

The protection is curved, covers the whole screen and there is no gap between the screen and the glass. It's glued only around the edges. It's a bit painful to install but once stuck it stays in place. I managed to "wrap" the lip of the case over the glass and it now helps the screen guard stay in place.

The force touch on the home virtual button still works properly, I have not noticed any lag in the input although not typing directly on the screen takes a bit to get used to. No colour problem at all, the glass is perfectly clear.

I ordered a Yootech wet-apply film and so far it's been great. It's a film so it's not as smooth as a TG but has minimal orange peel and is case friendly with the Spigen Neo Hybrid case. It was under $10 for two films, pretty happy with it considering it's a film.

Waiting for the Whitestone TG's to be in stock again.

Would like to Recommend one Case-friendly Screen Protector.

Hi madpete, i am honored to recommend Otao tempered glass screen protector for S8 plus with tray on amazon, yes it is case-freindly, and many user prove this and it is designed to fit most mobile phone case in the market.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] monkey39:
Is it worth $45? Seems a bit pricey.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] reyals1:
There is a slight halo effect, but otherwise it sits perfect allignment and touch sensitivity. Since it comes with uv light, usb cable and 2 glue containers, I would say yeah it's worth it. And next time all i need is a cheap glas, uv glue and some alcohol which makes replacing it cheaper. Also the price of a s8+ replacement screen is several times the cost... But I can 't decide for another person whether it's worth their money. My guess is that the resale value of my s8+ in mint condition will also be better
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] otaostore:
I would like to Share one with you

i would like to recommend otao screen protector(amazon) with you,it has a tray to help install and with touch matrix built in assures not to lose sensitivity.

I've been using the IQ Shield on my phone since there are not many better options out there for glass. You have to get the alignment close to perfect or else your case might lift one of the edges. I screwed up once.

The only other thing I don't like about it (and basically all the other film protectors) is that after a while you can see all the little indents and markings on the screen, unlike glass, but it is what it is. Can't have it all.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] SuperBet_ARG:
Hi guys!

All those screen protectors you are using, what kind of plastic are them? It's hard plastic or soft? Because I have a screen protector that is a soft plastic (like you can take it off and strecht it out) and if you see the screen in a particular position you can see all the little marks it has. It was the best and only decent thing I found when I bought the phone (all the others protectors where those ugly "tempered glass" with the black borders or plastic with mate finish.

I wanted to buy a better protector, but if the ones that us are using are like mine, I'll forget about it and continue using mine that do it's job and work fine with my Spigen case.

Thanks!

I've been using the Icheckey full adhesive since late November and has held up well, no dust on sides. But expect the others should be similar.

As mentioned this full adhesive protector does come with the black bar on sides if that is something you don't like. Some have posted clear but haven't tried.

Clarity and sensitivity are great and better than a nonfull adhesive and no dust buildups on sides. I've used it with UAG Monarch, spigen tough armor, a defense forgot the brand, but haven't had any issues with cases.
