[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] NetSkipper:
My HTC TyTN II came with one pre-installed and one in the box.

The pre-installed one is, how to say it gently, total crap..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] solidus2:
you will have to take up the corner where the bubble is the closest.

To take up a corner the easy way, just use a bit of Scotch tape on that corner sticking half of it to the protector and puling on the other half. Use a can of compressed air to blow on both the screen and protector. That's because it might be a dust particle that's stuck which could be causing the bubble. After that, lay it back down. I suggest doing all this in a humid washroom to avoid more dust particles. If you still have the bubble, you have to take the whole protector off and wash it. That's how I've been doing it for years.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] solidus2:
I've been using the WriteShield protector from PPCtech and I believe they make one of the best out there, so even if there is one pre-installed on your device I would change it.

Mine TILT came with a screen protector in the box. I'm looking for a new one. Its ok, but the corner is messed up from when I took the backing off.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Fitipaldi1:
I highly recommend the ones from BoxWave.

or

http://www.boxwave.com/products/cleartouch/cleartouch-screen-protector-at_t-tilt_2906.htm (if you prefer a matte finish)

I've used the 'crystal' one (first link) on my 8585 and now my Tilt and love it. It's much better than the one that comes with the Tilt.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] luckystrike6:
Thanks to everyone for the advise on removing the screen protector.

Waichai - you were absolutely correct. I took another look at the screen and indeed all the bubbles are gone.

Another vote for Boxwave

I second the vote for using Boxwave screen protectors. Just installed 4 of them on our family Tilts and they are awesome. I also used them on my Treo 700wx previously.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Jay2TheRescue:
The screen protector comes in the box, not installed. This is what I did. I peeled the protector off the wax paper, and held it by the edges so as not to put fingerprints on the adhesive. I carefully aligned the protector and lightly dropped it on the screen. Starting from the bottom edge I started running my thumb accross the screen, working my way up. When I got to the top I had a perfectly aligned screen protector with almost no air bubbles. The few air bubbles on the screen are tiny, and only visible upon a very close inspection of the screen. I do not even notice them through ordinary/daily use.

No to the Smartphone Experts

I wouldn't suggest the Smartphone experts "3 custom screen protectors" for the ATT 8925. I too screwed up the ATT in-the-box shipped protector, and bought these. After meticulously lining up the top corners, making sure I didn't have any fingerprints, holding my breath for 3 minutes, and gradually moving the protector across the screen, it ends up being about a 1/8th inch short on the bottom. Stated differently, it doesn't fit snuggly. I wouldn't waste your money on these, and I'm going to try the boxwave ones, and trash the remaining 2 of the smartphone experts' ones.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] lilila:
I messed up the inbox ATT screen protector too.

I then cut a piece of film from one of those transparencys for projectors. Just a little bit longer and wider than the phone screen on each edge, then squeeze it in. It works perfectly except way too slippery.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pain-N-Panic:
Hello, I would like to modify my systemui to get 3minit battery mod working on my Google pixel XL.

I've deodexed system apps in the past using baksmali, but these new odexed system apps now have a systemui.vdex file as well as a systemui.odex file to go along with the systemui.apk.

Couldn't find much about the vdex files other than it's allegedly optimized dex code. I looked at jesusfreke's website and most of the threads on there were way above my comprehension level lol.

Can anyone help me out to get started on deodexing this app?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ticklefish:
The latest baksmali and smali can't handle vdex files yet, as far as I can tell. There's an open issue about it here: https://github.com/JesusFreke/smali/issues/555

Looks like we have to wait, sadly. This always every time Google make a new version of Android - they keep odexing files in different ways. Good for the user, but very annoying for the modder!

If your personal program works, would you assume fulmic's should work as well with Oreo? As long as I updated the small/baksmali?

I've no idea, sorry. I wouldn't know how that program works. You can try it, just be sure to make a backup first just in case.

Hi

Last night I open my YB to do some browsing. The keyboard was not working. I was like what on earth, then restarted etc and that did not solve it. Then I realized that there is a long thin crack line at the top of the keyboard area. And I did not do that, I did not dropped it either. WHat on eart?

Check this forum, my crack is similar to these people's.

Does anyone else have this issue? I am going to get Lenovo lick this ****. I spent so much money on this, they better fix this under warranty.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] wat':
Had the same problem, the shop I bought said it would be covered by warranty. But a month later the repair partner in Germany mailed me that it wouldn't be covered and I had to pay 50€ for the repair. Took two months until I had it back ...

Same problem.

Do you have an address / contact of the repair partner in Germany ? Or do I have to contact Lenovo (if so how?)
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] wat':
I sent it in via Cyberport (the seller) and Medion repaired it... No wonder the keyboard is already coming unglued. Cost 50€, if I've a problem again I'd do the repair myself, a replacement keyboard costs around 20€.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] CHH2:
Figured we probably needed a place to put everyone's first impressions.

I'll start with first, this thing is small and light! Coming from a V20 and a Nexus 6 before that, this thing is tiny. Last time I felt like I had a phone this size was the Galaxy Nexus. (Yeah, I know. That one was probably actually smaller than this but still, this thing feels that small in hand to me. I've been using nothing but phablets since that phone.) It feels closer in size to my work iPhone 6s than my V20. That's going to take some getting used to. It's in a case now but still feels small.

Still trying to get used to some app behaviors that seemed to have changed. For instance, Weather Channel app is having all kinds of issues. Shows as a sensitive notification on the lock screen vs my V20 where it isn't, because it isn't. The widget doesn't display information without being cut off. I still need to go log into all my apps and get them set up.

Camera. Haven't really taken any shots with it yet but I did dig through it. First, I'm not happy that it always opens in auto mode. The V20 would open in whatever mode you last had it in. I prefer manual mode and liked that I could just open it, make a quick adjustment to the settings and shoot. Now I have to dive into a menu to get to manual then make adjustments and shoot. It'll slow things down quite a bit. I am happy that Graphy can be shut off. Also, noise reduction can be shut off in manual. It was actually disabled by default. Going to do a lot of test shooting today.

Hoping to hit up the museum I used to work in and always test every camera I own there. Also hitting up an outdoor night event here as well as the jazz club. It's going to get one helluva workout today! Going to take my V20 and Nikon V3 along too. Not sure how much I'll use the V3 outside of the outdoor event. Not going to bother taking my DSLR. (I'm actually in the process of downsizing my photography to smaller cameras. DSLRs have gotten way too clean and clinical for my tastes.)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] EVOme:
Nice! I can’t wait to see the pics it takes.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ryanpm40:
I played with this at Verizon yesterday, and I'm still on the fence. The front facing camera was HORRIBLE. I held my G5 next to it and took a selfie, and the G5 was so much better. The rear camera did seem to take awesome shots, but still slow to take and delay in swiping between front and back cameras, something I really thought they'd have a better handle on by now since I had the same issues in the G4 and G5. I loved it otherwise, I think it's a gorgeous phone, I like the looks a lot more than the Galaxy phones.

I went in wanting the phone, but two separate Verizon reps were adamant in saying I should stay away from LG, that they have nothing but problems, they only sold maybe 2 G6's, they have class action lawsuits against them, and they tell customers to go take a hike when asking for a new phone after having multiple of them die in a row from a known defect. Theyd rather keep sending you defective phones repeatedly under warranty. So idk. I'm reeeally torn between this and the S8+ which has very similar specs and is cheaper at this point, but I don't like having only one rear camera.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] CHH2:
Initial results at the museum are looking pretty good. I'm impressed so far for the most part. As for selfie camera issues, I was disappointed at first until I figured out those stupid settings at the bottom of the screen. After you turn off the skin toning and lightning, the images are much better. Then they work well with post processing.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ryanpm40:
Have you had a chance to play w Bluetooth, GPS, Wifi/Data connection? My G4 had bad bluetooth disconnections and busted gps in the G5. Just curious how the different antennae have been working for you. Good battery life?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] CHH2:
Haven't played with GPS yet. I can't really speak to how well or not how well it works. I used wifi during set-up. It worked but my wifi is slower than my network connection and I regretted using it. Not a knock on the wifi of this phone, it's just that my carrier network is that much faster than my home wifi. Only BT I've done so far is to connect it to my car. That went much better and smoother than my V20. It took me many attempts over an hour and a half to get my V20 and car paired. The V30 paired the first time. The next test will be to see if I have to restart my phone after a few days to keep the connection from going wonky. (Which is a ritual with my V20 that occurred at least once a week.)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killua96:
Yep. This method works on G6, so it should work on V30 also, be careful on what you disable, you could potentially brick the device.

BTW any display problems? And what variant did you buy?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deztroyah:
Thanks! As for the variant, I have the AT&T 64gig one. There are a few AT&T apps, all can be disabled. I actually use a few of them. And no display problems that I have seen. I think the display is one of the best parts of the device.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] jemeljsh:
Awesome overview :good: Although I already ordered v30 (black, 64gb) from South Korea, it was still nice to read, especially regarding the screen/size. I am not a fan of 18:9 in general since native support is still behind (cropped,zoomed videos), but I like what LG does - basically putting 18:9 screen in a more like 16:9 frame.. this makes it look much better than sausage-style s8/s8+/note8.

Interesting review. Where did you get your B&O branded V30+ in UK? I thought they only had the V30? Did you get it from Italy or elsewhere?

I watched your full YouTube review and I agree people are selling the camera on this phone short. Interesting that all your friends chose the LG V30+ pictures over the Pixel 2 XL pictures. That's one reason I'm not really going to mess with the Pixel camera port.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:
Thanks. You’re right. UK only gets standard V30. Wondamobile supplied the V30+. The Pixel 2 will take better pics , but like everything it depends on the scene. I was out this morning with my Canon & V30+ and will get a post up next week with the results.

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gempir:
So I have TWPRP, Magisk and the latest Slimrom on my nexus 9.

The first time installing slimrom (first custom rom on this n9) I was stuck in the boot screen for like 15mins. so I thought something is wrong.

I read about vendor.img and how it's an exception for the n9. So I downloaded "Nexus9-WIFI-NMF26F-vendor.img" and flashed it with fastboot. After that my n9 started up with slimrom in less than 2 minutes.

I now get an error message at bootup saying I have the wrong vendor installed and the correct one is "n9f27l" so I download "vendor-flounder-n9f27l.img" and install it.

Now I'm stuck in a bootloop again.

Reinstall the other vendor img and it works again, but shows the error message.

So what do I do? Does anything break with having the wrong vendor? Should I ignore the warning? Can I disable the warning?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] centran:
I thought I had a very fine barely noticeable scratch both on the front and back glass. There is nothing in my pocket or where I place my phone usually that would scratch it(plus isn't it gorilla glass 5?).

Anyway, now I look at the back and that very fine scratch has expanded... GREAT, it's not a scratch but a crack. The front is staying put but the back crack is spreading and now split off to form another one. It is very tiny and you have to angle the phone to see it.

This phone has never been dropped. I don't put it in my back pocket. Nothing has ever been placed or dropped on top of it. WTF?

Anyone else have this problem. I doubt this is covered under warranty. I am so pissed. My last couple phones have been disasters. I need to stop buying phones right after they come out... (all though that might not help as the nexus 6p I had didn't have problems for a year. argh! why do phones suck these days)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] usmaak:
It sounds like a manufacturer defect. And that's difficult because you have to prove that. Perhaps you can just go into wherever you got it or to a carrier store and talk to them and explain. They might be cool with replacing it.

I've read a lot of posts around talking about how this phone scratches easily. It's actually got me considering putting on a screen protector and I've never done that before.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
Could the crack possibly be due to heat causing the expansion of the glass? I'm thinking perhaps the gap everyone talks about on the note 3 note 4 etc models is for that reason. To allow the glass some space when it gets hot.

Just my thoughts.

I have the light leak along the sides, but it is not caused by a gap in the glass. It's the black along the edges of the screen not being all the way to the very bottom.

can

happen but its generally owners who, either known or unkown, break the glass.
