Just received the Whitestone screen protector and installed it. It lined up perfectly with the hole punch camera, but doesn't quite cover the entire front glass. Had no adhesive dribble out on to my phone. But, did have to move the holder around to get the adhesive to fully disperse. I'm now just hoping that the first case I put on (when one of the five I ordered arrives), doesn't break the screen protector.

Does anyone know if any of the screen protectors on this link are actually glass, and if they are any good ? Thanks.

Got my Whitestone Dome today. Messed up the installation the first time. Tried it a second time. Perfect! I love it. Seems like a case will fit perfect. Still waiting on my Spigen Hybrid case. Have the thin fit coming too, not sure which one I will keep. Guessing the Hybrid.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] chuynh1109:
any updates on anyone who has a whitestone installed and a case?

I just installed my whitestone, love it. however i'm curious to see if a case will fit still on the front cover
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] bcn2003:
Highly recommend this option from best buy...covers the outside, main screen and back

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] mmafighter077:
I have it but I'm holding off on installing it until I get a case that covers the front screen. Reason is because sometimes when i go to open the phone my finger slips and my nail catches the screen Protector that's already pre-installed. Last thing i want to do is accidentally lift up my $40 screen protector with my nail.

To those who have bought Whitestone Dome good luck!

I have used them several times they look amazing for 3-4 weeks after which you start noticing spiders web basically the glue will start to produce a very faint webbing effect beneath the glass that spreads after several days until becomes a real issue, at first I thought it must be a faulty product, so I tried a replacement and replacement after that no joy! To Whitstone credit their customer service was great they offered free replacements but after that experience I will never buy Whitstone Dome again sorry!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] lynseyw:
Whitestone dome does not fit with front cases. I tried several. It was fine buy itself, but if you want a case on the front, forget it.

Is the protector of the inside screen replacable? It seems that it's very easy to make scratches on it. Can we put another one?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] blackhawk:
Be real CAREFUL about that piece of plastic!!!

With the first generation Fold customers destroyed the screen by removing what they thought was a protective factory screen cover.

It was in fact part of the screen... they ended up with a black unusable screen.

Samsung may have added a screen protector but verify this is the case for that model and region.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] C@dfael:
I am not thinking of removing it myself but because I already see scratches on it, I wonder if it can be replaced probably in a Samsung service center.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] D.J.ChriZZ:
Hi, I use now the Samsung outer screen protector whitch comes with the phone. It scratches a little bit after one week, only a plastic protector but !! the outer screen is gorilla glass victus, the new one.

Do we need a outer display protection really here ???

Inside, shure. you need the stock shield from Samsung. works very good and protect the flexible soft gorilla glass 6 screen.

I think not long I remove the outer plastic screen protector and use this phone without a shied but I have a case for the phone !
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] blackhawk:
The glass is more break resistant but scratches just about as easy. Sand will scratch it, no problem.

Keep the factory one on as long as it lasts.

I've been using the wet apply Gorilla IQ Sheild on my 10+, it's "self healing" urethane and has held up well.

No bubbles and easy to apply. Needs about 10 hours of set time (overnight) though.

For $5 got 4 months out of it. Looking a little doggy now, but that's with a lot of usage.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] D.J.ChriZZ:
ok ... i keep the factory protector on. think its ok, some scratches on the protector are no Problem. Main screen is perfect with the factory protection.

crazy phone ..... wow :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] MANswers:
There is a thin screen protector on the outside screen, and I am starting to get bubbles on the edge. Is it ok to remove it and add a whitedome screen protector? I wonder if removing that screen will void the warranty or damage the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories] juggamonkey:
I bought this today installed everything but the back piece as I have a skin on the back .the inside, hinge, and front protector all went on great and feel great . Way better than stock .

[Moto X4 Guides, News, & Discussion] ag-android:
I have a Google Fi edition X4, and I may have bricked it. What led to me trying it is that we just got a new ISP and an Eero setup, and the phone just isn't working well with the wifi. My daughter has a retail / Amazon X4, and she's had no problems. I thought flashing it to a different ROM might help. Obviously I screwed up somewhere.

I've been following the instructions at https://xdaforums.com/moto-x4/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-official-factory-t3808348

The ./fastboot devices command works just fine, and it finds the device. I can run other fastboot commands such as ./fastboot getvar all.

However, when I ran the flash-all.sh script, I get a bunch of errors. I've tried again using the Google Fi ROM linked from the article. Here's a sample of the errors I see:

Setting current slot to 'a' FAILED (remote: '')

fastboot: error: Command failed

(bootloader) is-logical:modem_a: not found

(bootloader) is-logical:fsg_a: not found

. . . lots of things not found. I also get a big block when it tries to do the system:

(bootloader) WARNING: OEM images are required in the LOCKED state.

(bootloader) Flashing images can result in a non-boot condition.

(bootloader) Flash a proper OEM signed boot.img first.

(bootloader) *****************************************************

(bootloader) flash permission denied

When the phone reboots, I get a setup screen, where it first asks if I have a SIM (I took it out) then it tries to setup wifi, but can't find anything.

Of course, I didn't make a backup before doing any of this. I think somewhere in my subconscious I may be looking for an excuse to get a new phone or something. Any ideas of what I should try next?

So somehow I got banned for asking this on androidfourms for so I'll try here...

I have a Moto X (2013) that is on its last official Android version of 5.1.

Hi I just bought new 8925 from eBay, claimed to be unlocked. I see lot of AT&T traces, afraid to plug in SIM and get charged for data plan.

Can you pl. tell me how to verify whether it is unlocked ?

Here is some device info. i collected.

----

Windows Mobile 6 Professional

CE OS 5.2.1622 build 18128.0.4.4

ROM 1.62.502.0

Radio 1.27.14.09

----------------

I also want to remove all this AT&T programs, get HTC latest and original look on it. so i guess i have to follow that hard reset and then soft reset. Would that remove my unlocking ? i will appreciate any help in this direction.

Thanks

You needed to read the WIKI and numerous stickies out there....Your about to be flamed like you never thought possible!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dsoler702:
With some methods of unlocking if you go to the bootloader it will say unlocked, but even if its not unlocked, its very simple to unlock the phone. I learned everything I know about the tilt and kaiser from the wiki's. They are excellent tools!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
Plugging in a SIM wont initiate any data connections unless you do something (like go to PIE). Just install Modaco Nodata to be safe.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Dsbtwins:
Once your phone is SIM unlocked it cannot be re-locked as long as you purposely don't do it. (And even then not sure if its possible) If you put in a foreign SIM (Tmobile, Bell Mobility, etc...) it will prompt you for an unlock code if the phone is not unlocked.

In order to upgrade you phone, please read the wiki. There is a specific one for Tilts which has a few different problems.

Trying to flash TWRp after unlocking bootloader. First time i tried it, said successful but booted to MIUI recovery

2nd time i tried said again successful, booted to TWRP, formatted data.

Phone then wouldnt reboot to TWRP. Instead it going straight to fastboot. I keep trying to flash again, every time saying successful, then it just boots to fastbooot, not recovery. Any ideas, phones dead at the minute :(
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
The best way to recover the phone in your situation is to fastboot flash MIUI.

Get the latest MIUI fastboot ROM for your phone from here

https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/raphael/

Install it using this guide from the official MIUI forums

https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2

If you see a blank page on a mobile browser, set it to view in desktop mode, for this page.

Make sure in step 5 you change the option at the bottom of the Mi Flash Tool to 'clean all' before hitting the Flash button.

MIUI will restore stock recovery when it reboots, so you need to do something to fix this. Flashing Magisk or a custom ROM will automatically preserve TWRP.

If you plan to keep MIUI and do not want Magisk, then you need to flash the vbmeta patcher from here

https://xdaforums.com/k20-pro/devel...icial-twrp-xiaomi-redmi-t3944363/post79823568

You need to flash TWRP, then immediately boot into TWRP.

fastboot flash recovery <path to twrp>
fastboot oem reboot-recovery

At this point you need to flash something in order to preserve TWRP (either a new custom ROM, Magisk, or the vbmeta patcher)

Anyway, lots of hiccups on the way along with this solution. Got to the point now where it says its flashing but it never stops.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] VirtualWaver:
Hi Guys,

What is the best practice to charge our Note 20 to maintain good battery life?

I checked my charge cycle and it shows its 8 so far but I only have the phone for a few days now. And I guess 8 is not good as it says on Internet the battery life cycle is 400-500 charge cycles. So I want to avoid battery damage.

With this in mind:

1. Do we need to wait for phone to completely shut down because of battery and then recharge? Or its not good for the battery?

2. If the answer to previous question is "no" then when exactly we need to charge the battery to maintain good battery health? If, for example, the phone is on 30% and we recharge, how is it different from phone being on 80% and we recharge battery life-wise? And how this affects charge cycle and health?

3. Can we charge the phone as often as we want despite the battery level?

4. Can we leave the phone charged at all times (100%)

Just want to make sure I am using the most efficient method. Don't want my battery to die in a few months time.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] and2cs:
Just change it whenever you want. No matter how you take care of the battery. With today's battery technology, you need a replacement after 2 years.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] xfaega:
Best practice is never run your phone or any battery powered device past 25%. I know it's easy to do since we are on our device pretty much all day. Reason for this is because when charging the battery it needs to have resistance to charge correctly. Less resistance the less charge is given there for weakening the battery life and quality. I charge mine every night no matter what. Ive been doing this with all my Samsung phones and never had any issues. And last its OK to run the ballery down once a month to clean out old or bad charge voltage left behind.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Best to charge between 30-80%

Li's love small frequent charges ie 40 to 65%

As the cell voltage climbs so does the damage; try to avoid going above 80%.

Charging battery below 80° F can cause LI plating which permanently degrades the cell; try to avoid. Never charge when below freezing.

Try to avoid going over 100° F

High temperatures and battery voltage cause the most damage.

Between 5-20% has the lowest power density of the voltage curve, try to avoid using that range.

If discharged to 5%, recharge within a few days. If the cell voltage drops too low it will be useless. Generally this would take 2 months or more but don't chance it.

Use the 25 watt brick to charge, enable fast charging.

Hi

I am having hard time in making a cab file to delete a registry value.

as an example I tried to import the following into WinCE CAB manager:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Platform]
"PSAtRoot"=-

so that I can delete PSAtRoot from registry....

the WinCE CAB manager import nothing !!

this is working for desktop but not for PPC

any help on how to delete items in registry using cab file... or anything that is automated!

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheChampJT:
Install the .cab file known as PHM RegEdit. Also, before you delete any registry values, make sure you know what your doing!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xd1936:
I believe he is wanting a cab that makes the change, not a registry editing program. I personally would make a mortscript install.mscr and uninstall.mscr, and make your own custom cab with mort's included setup.dll :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheChampJT:
I know what they want, just showing that it's a lot easier to open a reg editor and do it manually, then creating a list of commands to execute a simple deletion of one entry.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] raiisak:
You clearly missed the question and the purpose why he is posting in Development and Hacking section. Hes asking todo a specific task in a cab operation and you advice him to install a reg editor and be carefull?? Jesus.. If you got nothing to say, dont say it. Sorry, but youre reply pissed me off here!

Mate, read this. I think its a good start for youre question :)

http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=235258&view=findpost&p=844503

You should read the whole tread aswell good info for you on cab and registry :)

http://www.modaco.com/content/smart...n/235258/create-cab-files-to-change-registry/

Play whit this for register changes, tbh I havent deleted in registry via cab before. I overwrite in cab form and wrap it whit provxml when cooking.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheChampJT:
The OP asked for an AUTOMATED way to delete the reg entry, not how to setup an xml file for deletion of the key during ROM cooking. And yes, you better believe I said make sure you know what your doing! If a person asks how delete a registry entry with this type of thread started for it, I'm a bit concerned with the fact they might not know what they are doing. So, really I'm soooooo sorry I hurt you feelings, but I did give an answer, it wasn't rude, and I gave caution to the person who wants to change the registry.

Ohhhhhh! Your post made me so sad :(!

HAAAAA! LOL :D!

delete registry entry using xml

TheChampJT : thanks for welling to help

raiisak : Thanks alot for the the help

while searching I found away to delete registry entry using (Provisioning)pre/post xml in the WinCE CAB Manager.

I modified the xml code accourding to this MSDN article

this my xml code :

<characteristic type="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Loader">
<noparm name="EnableUpperModules" />
</characteristic>

</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>

unfortunately nothing deleted !

did I miss something?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] g77:
Why don't you create this _setup.xml:

Thanks for that idea! I managed to delete the entire ClearType key from the registry using the Post-XML option in WinCE Cab manager.

I now have a cab that deletes the ClearType key and thus disables cleartype! (From a rom that has cleartype enabled by default because the key exists)
