What is the best custom kernel for poco x3 nfc with a custom rom of pixel experience 12.1?
[Palm Treo Pro] eludor:
Hi,

I just switched from my Palm Treo Pro to HTC Touch Diamond, expecting to have the same ring tones and alarm notification sounds (as it's WM 6.1 too). But no, they are different, and I'm missing the nice Treo sounds :(, the nice old phone ring (ri-riiing), and the default appointment sound (that flute like thing).

So, could anybody please, please zip the wav/wmp files for me (I guess they are in the \Windows\Rings folder, at least that's where I find them on the Diamond)? You can upload the zip to http://stashbox.org/ and post the URL here (or send PM). Thanks a lot!
[Palm Treo Pro] NuShrike:
I ripped the MIDI ones I had from my Sony CLIE NX80, which are basically based off the orignal Palm ones all the way back to the beginning.

However, WinMob has horrible MIDI support with horrible default wave banks, so the tones don't sound right. Instruments are missing, sounds are off, lots of cackling on playback with the Kaiser.

Did Palm convert them to wave or some such on the Treo Pro?
[Palm Treo Pro] eludor:
I have no idea. Don't even know which format they are kept in on the Treo Pro. I just remember they really sounded good...
[Palm Treo Pro] xarope:
I found a whole stack of .mid, mp3, .wav and .wma's in \windows (what was in \windows\rings was the ring tones/mp3s I had imported via the manage tab when you run "Sounds and Notifications").

I grabbed the lot of them from \windows, and uploaded it to stashbox, it's called "treo pro sounds.zip", approx 3.5MB. The link is:

http://stashbox.org/290713/treo pro sounds.zip
[Palm Treo Pro] eludor:
Thanks so much. I haven't tested it yet, but the file names exactly as expected. Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
S22 Ultra slipped off the bed in the morning face down to the floor and the screen broke. That's exactly a 20 inch drop.

I have not changed my bed for years and dropped several phones including S21 Ultra/S20+ etc. and all survived.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] gav83collins:
ouch, that must have been devastating
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Felt like a very normal glass to me. It's the clean tiled floor where it dropped.

The experience is similar to THIS, but with a much shorter height.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] gav83collins:
yeah sure, but with the "claims" they make for the glass, you dont expect it, my heart would have sank if it was mine after paying so much money out right for it
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] gav83collins:
My phone cost me more than my 8k tv, its crazy 🤪 how much they are, but, I don't regret it, I'm on exynos and nor noticing any issues other people are
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] raul6:
You sound amazingly calm. Looking at the whole situation as positively as one can.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] gianoi:
It is glass not steel victus or not victus it can resist abrasion not shock
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] hand-filer:
Sorry to hear. Was the phone in a case? Glass vs ceramic tile, ceramic wins every time.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Previous phones resisted from same height several times, this one didn't.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Yes

Was in the official silicone case.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DeHAWK:
I droped my phone on the bus today, after scanning my ticket, height was 1 meter. No damage att all. I've an original S22 Ultra Sammy cover. Not even a scratch on the cover. So you must have been very unlucky.

Regards DeHAWK.🐥
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Not face down I think.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DeHAWK:
Hi bro

To be honest, I actually can't remember how it landed. My previous phone S9+ Ive dropped several times, never a scratch. But this was also in an original Samsung cover, not that I'm saying those are better - no way.

But fact is; a cover will always protect the phone if droppe, but you can of course be unlucky.

OP should not have had a broken screen from the given info. Should not happen.

A last word; Sammy quality is not was it used to be.🤔

Regards DeHAWK
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cpufrost:
My S9+ succumbed to slate floor from bed height as well. It was in a minimalist case (Diztronic IIRC).

Point is, glass is glass and it WILL break regardless of what fancy name (Corning) gives it!

The curved screen is a major vulnerability, think of it like your junk, get kicked there, we know what to expect! ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Tomasz_Anonim:
I think it got broken because of hit into curved element. My huawei mate 30 pro had a case and also a UV glass. It was impossible to screen to be touched directly by any surface. Still, when phone felt from half of the meter height, it got shattered below the protective glass. I miss flat screens. I hope my s227 will survive long time.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Tux111:
Bro same or not same height means absolutely nothing. Its physics. One degree, one angle different, one micron different and boom, your display its dead. Height means nothing. Previous experiences means nothing too. That's not how physics works.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jojos38:
As Tux111 this is just physics and luck, your phone falls on the very slightly wrong angle and it's done. The lower the height and the lower the chances of breaking it, but there will always be a chance, even from 5 centimeters
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Haha I know. My point some previous galaxies(21U being the recent one) + a few other phones fell off from the same bed on the same floor face down several times and survived, so this time it felt weird.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
It literally means having a protective glass on top was as useless as not having one - alteast in few scenarios and that sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
This incident injected me into thinking the same way, even if I know it may not be the case and it's all about how it landed despite of a short fall.

Still, I trusted "victus plus" to an extent and it shattered like a spiderweb more than my S22U's screen itself.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Ouch. The glass may have been prestressed due to foundry or assembly errors.

This is a heavy phone. That means substantially more impact force. Samsung engineers knew this.

The mobo can be damaged as well be high impact G loading. It can fracture solder joints, even damage chipsets internally. BGA chipsets are particularly intolerant of board flexing.

A good case with raised guards slightly higher than the display on the sides, higher still on the ends. The Zizo Bolt has done an excellent job protecting my N10+'Ss. Close to a dozen 2-4 foot corner hits and face plants onto concrete.

Few (no?) cases are rated for protection for drops on concrete and if dropped much higher would likely cause damage.

Just because you got away with no damage, there's a catch.

Repeated insults can create invisible stress points and cause a failure latter with much less than the rated loading. Glass is a very strange substance, some of the laws of hydraulics apply to it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] termdj:
I had a S9 and my friends vape was on the table next to it...he by accident bumped the vape and it fell over onto my S9 and the screen got smashed into a nice web design....the glass part of the vape caught the side of the screen....had a case and screen protector....so, the impact was from a few cm's....it's like everyone says, physics and luck and that day a had bad luck
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
+1.

Very much possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
Just because other phones resisted it doesn't mean they all fell the same and hit the same. No matter how strong the glass is, if the conditions are right, it will break with what seems like minimal force. Physics is a bear.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Yes. I had a beer to cheer post that bear attack.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cpufrost:
If someone can design a case like a cat so no matter how you drop it, the phone always lands on its back (like the cat landing on its feet) they'd be golden. ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
I hope it was a good beer.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
I keep mine in this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09S6KRVD2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I haven't dropped it...yet, so I don't know how well it will work. Nor do I plan to find out.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Well reports are starting to filter in...

He seems to think it should survive a 3 foot drop unscathed. Even with a very good case and a lighter phone I don't take surviving a 2 foot fall for granted. He had neither.

Damn, just take a hammer to it🤣

These aren't ruggedized phones. Put a drop rated quality case on it now. It's not just the glass you risk destroying. With no SD card to act as a data drive you're at increased risk losing all the data.

This is a ruggedized flip phone that survived many a 3 foot plunge. 12 yo and it still works.

Quit a different animal.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
If you want a light case go with the Bolt. Anything lighter likely won't be enough.

Spigen cases seem to be drop rated well too.

A case should be grippy not slippery because once it leaves your hand you lose control of the outcome.

Pay close attention to the spen case corner, go with ones with a heavier spen guards. Port and spen dust guards aren't needed.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
I'll stick with this one. It's light, it has raised edges at the top and bottom and around the cameras. I normally place it face down when not being used or on a charger (I don't like setting it on the cameras). Yes, I know the camera glass is pretty tough, but I'm a photographer and I've made it a habit to not set a camera lens on to any surface without some kind of cap or other kind of protection.

It also, matches the background image I have on my watch.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
A good case has raised cam guards. Those aren't lens, it's the lense protector and they are very cheap to replace unlike a Heliopan UV filter.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] hand-filer:
I've destryed a few things while vaping..........canabis 🤪
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] hand-filer:
Silicone cases are like condems. They provide protection from accidents most of the time but not all the time. Something along the lines of a UAG Monarch would be a better option.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
That is the best analogy I've seen all week.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
gernertti, gravity is a tough master.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Here's a prototype.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] :
Like a proper adult! It's refreshing to see!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] :
For sure. Isn't this why the CEO (or whomever) was apologizing in South Korea about this? Their cutting of corners in quality in the past year or so?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] :
I also wonder if it's the degree of the curve on the glass edge compared to other Sammy phones? IIRC, the S21 Ultra's curve was slightly less curved than this S22 Ultra? Or the Note 20 Ultra?

I wonder if that slight difference makes a difference in these situations?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ZXR:
I would say the shape of the glass is very similar to the Note 10 and 20 Ultra. Just the frame is a bit thicker and wider. Both frames a at least a kind of aluminum.

The Victus+ is said to be more scratch resistant, but this could be proven only for the flat S22(+) and not for the ultra.

So maybe it is the "old" glass or a compromise.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
I think it was likely a flaw in the glass and an unlucky direct hit that stressed sweet spot.

They way you break out a tempered glass car window (which can be suprising hard to break)

without the right tool is to tap around on it until you hear a different more "hollow" sound, that's the sweet spot. Hit there.

The curves area of the display are load bearing in that they help to stiffen the phone. A flaw there and excessive tension loading would prime it to fail easily.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cpufrost:
A punch with a large stone bearing ring turned around does the job wonderfully! ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Less than one foot onto a wood table corner.

A tension causing hit concentrated on the curved portion. What doesn't seem like a lot of force may be deceiving.

These phones absolutely need raised side guards to protect this area.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] termdj:
And today I fell victim to the bad luck. Phone was standing up right in my car door holder....Somehow it tipped without me noticing....which has happened multiple time and no issues....today it caught the curved edge on the corner and splat.....it tipped maybe 2cm to the plastic edge of the door holder and broke
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cpufrost:
If they continue to use curved screens, perhaps the next step would be to use a sapphire cover. The one on my Apple Watch is super tough. It has taken blows from door knobs directly to the face with enough impact to bruise my arm and the crystal face is perfect! I'd pay the difference for the peace of mind. No micro scratches. And why they're at it, a ceramic back as well. Love the ceramic S10+ phones!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Yeah... might want to flip it around on your wrist.

Sapphire, is heavier and would push the price of an already expensive phone through the roof.

It wouldn't protect the mobo and chipsets from high G loading in drops. A 3 foot drop can generate enough G loading on impact to internally damage chipsets without protection.

A good case is a better, cheaper and more practical solution... and just slapping on sapphire doesn't ruggedize the phone.

If the case gets damage, $25 easily and quickly fixes it. Zero down time, no reload or data loss.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cpufrost:
Sapphire fixes the micro scratch issue that no case can fix though. Tempered glass screen protectors are OK but with in screen FP and curved screens they're not on any of my devices with 'em. Cost isn't much of a concern for those seeking flagship devices. The only cases I use are super thin and don't offer much drop protection. As far as internals they can certainly withstand shock. Never had a device die from shock even with the frame and front glass totaled! The camera is of biggest concern with OIS and periscope designs. Even so, those parts are easy to replace if needed.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Tempered glass may not help prevent extensive damage and raises the height of the display perhaps higher than the side guards. A cheap plastic Gorilla IQ Sheild works fine, is easy to apply and lasts at least 6 months. Sapphire is not break or scratch impervious. It works well in watch crystals because of it's hardness, shape and small size.

BGA chipsets especially are intolerant of board flexing and high G load spikes. If no lead solder paste is used it is notoriously fracture happy especially in the cold. Lead based solder will fracture as well though. Internal connections in chipsets can be damaged as well. These are not mil drop certified devices by a long shot.

This is a heavy, hard hitting phone. A light case is just asking for it, in my opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
I happened to visit a samsung service center today. Met an user whose S22 Ultra's back cameras where shattered. When I asked how it happened, he informed it slipped off the mobile holder on his car dashboard, fell near his feet and cameras shattered.

Yeah, the back cameras are more prone to getting shattered with a drop compared to predecessors.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
A cheap repair. A good case will usually prevent the lens guards from being damaged.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Yes, the thick ones. 😀
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cpufrost:
I used this one:

https://www.amazon.com/Lightweight-Aramid-Carbon-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B09QZHMR4W/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1U4S1EO6GNZGH&keywords=s22+ultra+aramid+case&qid=1652814989&sprefix=s22+ultra+ara%2Caps%2C60&sr=8-3

If you can wait, the same thing is on aliexpress for quite a bit cheaper.

Decent protection but isn't going to do squat for drops, gotta be careful! Hauling around expensive gear for decades has taught me to treat everything I don't want wrecked like an expensive instrument.

Of course, dogs in the house, is another story! ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
I hated the old bulky Otterbox's.

The Zizo Bolt series aren't that thick, it's as light as I would go especially with this phone. Their material choices and the polycarbonate clamshell that locks the inner liner on work well.

I don't like to test them but it happens...

For the S22U it comes with a screen protector; not sure if I would want that one. It can likely be substituted though.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
A few days back I ordered a very similar one(I think just names are different in Aliexpress, but of same quality) on Ali, cancelled it the very next day after seeing iPhone's corner getting damaged in droptest having Lew's latercase ON, (I believe it's carbon fiber for real, if not the ones from Ali 😀) in YT.

Settled with the Samsung official clear case as it's tighter+grippier than the official silicone case. It's not enough, but I cannot like a more bulky one.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
"P" type cases(back camera portion) - phone will surely be protected, not sure about the cameras though..
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cpufrost:
Latercase for S22U is WAY too open, you will get lots of damage/scuffs from small drops to tile/slate/etc. Like I said these are more for comfort/grip. I'd go for a skin but if it wasn't put on with .0001" precision I'd rip it off and wasting that money is like throwing a good fish and chips lunch away! ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] roirraW "edor" ehT:
@Virgo_Guy Ugh, so sorry to hear that. I bought a Note 10+ (I don't have anymore) just over two years ago and was waiting for a good price on the OtterBox Defender case (or they were out of stock, I don't recall), and the Note 10+ would just slide off several of my tables all by itself, and my house isn't that unlevel. That phone was just so slippery. But I was lucky each time, the screen never cracked. I'm assuming because of the older generation of Gorilla Glass. It must've hit the floor at least 12-15 times before I got a case.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Bill720:
Newer phones tend to have harder screens, which are more resistant to scratches, but more brittle.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Paul_Deemer:
Always amazes me that people spend $1200-$1500 on a phone and go cheap on a case or no case at all. They say oh I wanna thin light phone and see it's pretty colors. The Truth is nobody is perfect and one day you drop that thing and if it isn't protected in a case it's history!

I have dropped my S20 Ultra twice. Once on Asphalt road and once on Hard Kitchen Tile Floor at Work. The s22 Ultra hit a concrete Sidewalk and again on Kitchen Tile Floor at work. It's not that I'm that careless but **** happens. But neither of the phones was scratched or damaged at all, I don't even use screen protectors. The Reason that they never are damaged is because I had both phones in an OtterBox Defender Case. It has 3 layer protection and makes the phone bulky. But since the S7 Edge OtterBox has protected all my phones.

S7 Edge, Note 8 was Commuter Series.

None have ever been scratched and they have all taken abuse because I work in a busy Chefs Kitchen at work.

I'm not bragging, I don't work for OtterBox but they do have great products. But the point is a good case is a no brainer when you are spending so much money for a phone. Without it the first time you drop it from any height onto a hard surface you are going to pay the price for that ignorance.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Paul_Deemer:
It's almost impossible for an OtterBox Defender Case to fall and land face first because of the weigh distribution and the design. Even if it actually did it has raised edges on sides, top and bottom so its impossible for screen to come in contact with a flat floor. That's the kind of protection you need for a $1200-$1500 phone. If you gonna say oh I don't like cases or I wanna see my pretty paint job then I won't argue just be prepared to lose it the first time you drop it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Calling the kettle black?

With no screen protector the glass will get scratched, just a matter of time. Probably within 6 months or less.

The S22U already has a reputation for poor drop survivability, even a modest impact can break the display. Samsung should have kept the weight down on the S22U... and it's form factor sucks.

Screen-to-body ratio:

N10+ 90.74 % 6.91 oz (196.0 g)

S22U 89.72 % 8.08 oz (229.0 g)

The OP has good reasons to be pi$$ed at Samsung over this poorly designed half a pound mess!

Otterbox... ick, what dirty dogs they are.

The Zizo Bolt doesn't attract dirt, dissipates heat reasonably well, is inexpensive and soaks up hard hits from 2-4 feet onto concrete.

In 2.5 years of use the Bolt hasn't marred the side rails or any surface of my N10+.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Paul_Deemer:
Never had my screens scratched and I have never used screen protectors. I had the S7edge and Note 8 in the Commuter series cases which are lighter and thinner than defender and in my jeans pockets most days for years never scratched my phone. Keep the phone in a pocket that doesn't have keys or change in it. Wipe it with a microfiber eyeglass cleaning cloth daily and your screen will last for years without scratches unless you drop it on something without a case or lay it on surfaces face down. It's all common sense. But go ahead waste your money. 👍
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
One grain of sand or grit is all it takes. Your dry finger tips are also abrasive to glass and any coatings that may have been applied. While that won't scratch it, it will polish it down very gradually over time.

My S4+ had an Otterbox screen protector all it's life, no scratches. For giggles and kicks I decided to see how it do without it. In less then 6 months it had 4 scratches despite me trying to be careful with it. I always use microfiber clothes to clean displays and lens.

Gorilla IQ Sheilds go for $6 a pop and last at least 6 months. A face plant to an uneven surface like gravel can scratch or mar the display, a protector helps to prevent this. It has saved this display at least twice in nasty face plant drops where the raised case guards failed because of an uneven surface.

It's case, screen protector torture land here🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Paul_Deemer:
That's why you use Zeiss lens cleaner with the cloth daily. It won't hurt the coatings causes it's made for eye glass coatings. If you want a protector buy it But it's NOT necessary.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
A clean dry microfiber cloth works fine for dust.

Windshield antibug cleaner is great for heavy gunk and as a hydrophilic coating.

One face plant in the gravel or a grain of sand will prove why you need a screen protector...

Hard to account for where every grain of sand is.

Protectors also provide some limited impact absorption, maybe enough to save the glass from a fracture.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Paul_Deemer:
Ok keep using your fancy screen protector I don't need or want one such stop

Yada Yada blah blah blah. 🤣
