[Samsung Captivate Glide] working_1:
Dear all,

I bought Samsung Captivate Glide (with physical keybaord) in the US and I have been using it in the UK for many years. It is a good phone in general despite some limited features/updates. But the main reason I still like this phone and I still keep it with me although I have another device in use as well is: The Slide Physical Keyboard.

It seems that Samsung has stopped producing new smartphones with Slide physical keyboard.

So

I am wondering if we can launch a campaign to ask Samsung to launch a new smartphone with slide physical keybaord.

It maybe can be a new edition of the Samsung Captivate Glide i927, but with a larger screen and a new android version and some new features (better GPS, radio app, etc...)

From my side, I started by talking to Samsung online live support of different countries. So please you maybe can help through live support by giving the suggestion, so Samsung know that people from different countries are asking for this.

Maybe we can also launch a facebook page for all the people who have this phone or like slide physical keyboards.

I look forward to your suggestions.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Snot Here:
Google "f(x)tec Pro1". It's probably the closest modern phone to the i927.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] josinpaul:
The first Gorilla Glass was ready between 2005 and 2006, but its big debut really came with the iPhone. Apple released its device to the world in 2007 and, at the company’s request, the technology on its display was 1.5 mm thick and had an oleophobic coating, which minimized fingerprints and smudges.In 2012, Corning released Gorilla Glass 2 at the CES. The glass was just as resistant, but its main update was its thickness. The second generation was 20% thinner than the first model. In lab tests, it could hold up to 50 kg of pressure without cracking or breaking.In that same year, Gorilla Glass was included on 600 million devices. Since this version was thinner than the first, it let manufacturers develop lighter and thinner models of their phones. Both the Nexus 4 and the Galaxy S3 came equipped with Gorilla Glass 2.Gorilla Glass 3 glass brought even more resistance with it, unlike the previous version which was more focused on thickness. This is also the generation that introduced Native Damage Resistance (NDR) technology, which allowed the glass to handle even deeper scratches. According to Corning, the third generation prevented up to 35% of the scratches on the display. To commemorate the third version of their tech, Corning planned on increasing the resistance of its Gorilla Glass three-fold compared to older versions. They could do this thanks to a new manufacturing process. GG 3 was released at the CES 2013, and it came on models like the Galaxy S4, the Moto G, and the Moto X.

Shift of focus from scratches to shatter proof:

In 2014, Corning presented its Gorilla Glass with a bold new objective. Through one of its surveys, the company found out that 70% of cell phone screen damage was due to drops, and so it began investing in reinforcing its glass. The GG 4 was developed focused on the idea of being resistant to drops.The fifth generation was released focused on providing even more resistance to drops, and it delivered with four times the strength as the previous version. Corning has released that in lab tests, the GG 5 has survived drops of up to 1.6 meters. That said, the manufacturer also guarantees that its technology can prevent cracks in up to 80% of falls onto extremely hard surfaces at the height of 1 meter

Trade-off seen in GG4 and GG5 when compared to GG3

GG3 has the greatest scratch resistance of all the Gorilla Glasses because GG4 and GG5 sacrifice some scratch resistance for greater impact resistance. However even with GG3, the surface of the glass is still prone to microscopic scratches and abrasions that reduce its dust resistance, oil/water resistance and impact resistance over time. With GG4 and GG5 being a little less scratch resistant a screen protector is more important than ever, and you can always replace the protector for less than 200 bucks if it becomes damaged.

So GG3 is not so bad at all, After all GG5 has only 1 Meter drop protection which seems to be inadequate to me when it comes to the tortures we commit on our phones:laugh::laugh:

Ofc gc3 isnt so bad. GC3 was top when it came. The problem nowadays, people just need the best of all, not good ones. IF there is something better, the rest is crap, for that people.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] cyanides13:
Just refer to JeryyRigEverything scratch test on phones with GG3, GG4 and GG5, they all scratch at level 6 mho scale meaning there's really no difference when it comes to scratch resistance as for drop resistance GG4 and GG5 may have an advantage but if you just slap a case on your phone anyway then you won't have any problems. (Even the cheapest case would do as long as it covers the corners and sides!)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aimara:
poco phone screen is really fragile , also consider the weight , 4000 mah quite heavy , invest in a good case
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] n00b_dr0id:
I was not using any kind of protector till a few days back. I keep the phone only in one pocket no other item still got microscopic scratches. Had to put a tempered glass which I personally don't like.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Negi9:
Micro-scratching will occur no matter which phone you buy. If you can live with them, then you can live without a screen protector. Personally, I feel a decent screen protector is worth the investment, just don't cheap out and apply the cheapest one available and it would be fine I guess.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] meltbanana:
well, I could show you my 3,5 y.o. iphone6 and I never used a screen protector but there's no scratch at all.

however my pocophone already got a slightly deeper scratch - thus and due to the polarization issue I'm using a protector now - and my tissot a few more (~5).
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Negi9:
I am not saying you're lying, but there's a plethora of variables involved with your claim. It might be true (due to iPhone 6 being a flagship with a hefty price tag) that it has a superior quality screen but no glass screen is immune to scratches. It only takes a sand particle dragged with just enough force, no glass would be able to prevent a scratch.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] meltbanana:
believe it or not, it's fact
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Negi9:
You didn't get my point at all lol. Nevermind.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] meltbanana:
dude, "I am not saying you're lying ..." maybe isn't the best way to kick off a conversation.

without a doubt the iphone6 was sold at $800 and has a supreme, extremely scratch resistant or nearly scratch-proof glass but that's not my point.

I even own a tissot and it got ~5 deeper scratches from dust in my trousers pockets(?) in about 3 months.

my experience with GG3 is anything else than good.

Hi All

I was seeking for the answer to my question, but i couldn't find any, so i have to ask here instead, and hopefully someone can answer my question.

I have an Xiaomi Mi6 with Snapdragon 835

I want to know if QPST imei backup tool does backup EFS partition or just Imei/NVram?

Should i backup Imei/NVram with QPST and backup EFS using other method/software?

Whats the different with backup EFS and Backup Imei/NVram?

Thank you

After flashing this recovery, I was able to boot the ROM successfully. Initial impressions, good. Everything is working fine. I don't use VoLTE so no issue for me if it's working or not. Camera works. Camcorder works. Wi-Fi works. Flashlight works. Sound works. There are some issues tho. Whenever I touch Battery option in Settings, the Settings app force closes. Don't know what's the issue. Also, after every reboot, the phone automatically goes to vibration mode. Great ROM overall.

Can someone help with the steps to install this on my moto G turbo. I am currently on stock version.
[Moto G 2015 Android Development] Julianosanduart:
1- unlock the bootloader.

2- install a custom recovery (TWRP).

3- download the ROM+Gapps.

4- follow the instructions on the first page of this post.
[Moto G 2015 Android Development] Jhakas:
Sorry for silly questions: need the steps to unlock the bootloader and also the twrp file
[Moto G 2015 Android Development] XDrive10:
To unlock the bootloader you need the ADB drivers on this link: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip

After donloaded and extracted, just follow the instructions from motorola.com/unlockbootloader (except for downloading the Android SDK, because you already have the ADB drivers) (Don't forget to enable "OEM Unlocking" at Developer Settings)

After receiving your bootloader unlock code type the comand "fastboot oem unlock (paste your unlocking code here)", after this reboot the device choosing "Start" with Power button or the command "fastboot reboot" and wait it start (it will be a long time because it is wiping the data partition)

For the TWRP here is the link https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262903991790

To install it, copy the img file to the same folder where the adb.exe is, reboot the device again to fastboot and type the command "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3-merlin.img" and it's done

Sorry for the (very) long tutorial and for my english xD

Yep lineage is most recent ROM build that Merlin received so its obvious to have many features working on it.

And nicorg is one of the senior devs and mostly other updated builds (dont know why old pro devs are offline) are from new devs so there is difference in experience and fixing things:)
[Moto G 2015 Android Development] bhushan2k:
