big mean giraffe posted:The neoprene sleeve my nexus one came with not only wore the paint off the sides, but did nothing to protect it when it was in my hands if I dropped it. Ah yes, the one time I dropped my Nexus One was a day or so before the case arrived, and it was in the neoprene sleeve. Stupid open end.

the nicker posted:I'm pretty sure there is now. When I had auto backup turned on I kept getting spammed with prompts to enable that feature (to view the photos from drive). I've got it turned off now though because I hate auto backup. Why does it upload every picture even if I delete it 2 seconds after taking it? Super loving annoying.

I just threw mine in a good old S Line TPU case (with freebie dry apply screen protector). No complaints, as per usual... I like them as they cost gently caress all, protect the phone and have handy grippy sides.

Benjamin Black posted:This is not only going to be my first Android, but my first smartphone. So I gotta know - should I root this phone? Is it even possible yet? And if I did somehow brick it, would I be able to warranty it (even if it's supposed to void the warranty, I'm not above lying about it). Chances of actually bricking it are very slim though, unless you do something gormless like flash a ROM meant for another phone and end up overwriting something important.

peepsalot posted:My phone is experiencing an epoch fail. Clock reset to Jan 1 1970 today. I'm pretty sure its all configured to get the time from the service provider(t-mobile), so maybe their tower's config got borked somehow. Just wondering if there's any possibility that its a config/software issue on my phone itself (Nexus 4).

Hadlock posted:I think in Europe you can just blacklist your IMEI number which effectively bricks it unless you only want to use it on WiFi. Yeah we can, report it stolen to your network and the do just that. It only makes the phone useless in your country though, so thieves just send them abroad. Or change the IMEI.

bull3964 posted:Once the Moto G hits, it's probably going to be harder to recommend a Nexus 5. We obviously need to wait for some reviews, but if Kit Kat really is optimized for lower power devices, it's going to be hard to justify almost double the price for LTE and top end processors if the G is solid.

Vagrancy posted:Google drew a line in the sand in 4.4 and now force the software overflow to display on devices with a physical menu button (even the commit message pretty much implicitly addresses Samsung/LG): https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base.git/+/ea04f3cfc6e245fb415fd352ed0048cd940a46fe%5E%21/#F0 so any devices in that format will now be stuck with a duplicate menu. Now it's a waiting game to see if that'll be enough to get them to bite for the next round of devices.

Nah, you don't need ADB for factory images, it's all done with fastboot. But you should have ADB handy anyway.

mitztronic posted:My second HTC One bricked. The first one had a charger failure in July (guessing the charge electronics), which AT&T replaced with no issues, and this phone - I have no clue. Went to take a power nap on thursday (set an alarm for 30 mins) and was woken up 2 hours later by someone else. Pulled out my phone and it wont turn on, it wont charge (the LED doesnt even come on), when plugged into a computer via PC it will recognize that something is plugged in, but claims that it is "not configured" Probably stuck in QSD Download mode, which probably means it doesn't have an HBOOT anymore

Kreeblah posted:That's built in now, though. You can track a phone, cause it to ring, display a message on it, and remote wipe it. The thing with Cerberus is you can install both the app and config on /system, so if a theif was to factory reset your phone, Cerberus will continue to work for you where others won't.

It looks like it on the face of things, but if you dig far enough you'll find that enhanced compensation is not available on mobile phones. Royal Mail suck sometimes.
