    Thread Is there a real difference between all the glass screen protectors on Amazon?

    I was looking into some kind of oleophobic coating or glass screen protector for my M8 after using my brother's Moto X for a while and realizing his screen is way smoother and more comfortable to use. I looked up some glass screen protectors on Amazon, and there are a load of different ones that...

    Thread Do you run ART? What do you use to mod your phone? Do you miss Xposed?

    I, personally, was really excited to be running ART for the speed and battery boost, but have found myself kind of wanting for my good ol' Xposed modules. It'll be a while (probably a while after Lollipop goes gold) before we get ART support from Xposed. Do you guys not run ART at all in the...

    Post Post HTC M8 Pics and Video Quality

    Just got my M8 yesterday, and I'm loving everything but the camera. I'm finding that even in good lighting, the camera struggles to capture detail. Objects not directly illuminated are often muddy in appearance even when viewing the images on the phone, and there's generally a lot of noise in...

    Thread [Q] Any Point to Not Being SuperCID?

    My bootloader's unlocked. I am S-OFF. I am on 2.18. I'm on AT&T. From what I can tell, I can switch CIDs as much as I like. I've heard some anecdotal stuff about how using your carrier's CID gets you better signal (sometimes only with certain radios, but that sounds like special pleading/ad hoc...

    Thread Sprint S3 stock without root will not take OTA

    So, I was approached by someone asking me to take a stab at repairing their phone. They have a Sprint SGS3, and the owner is, well, less than versed in reading through XDA and determining exactly what steps they've taken to modify their phone. Suffice it to say, I have a bit of a diagnostic...

    Is anyone else having issues using the Square Reader with this ROM? The phone doesn't seem to recognize headset devices at all. The mic on a 4-conductor headset doesn't seem to do anything, and the Register app says it can't find the reader even when it's plugged in.

    Post [Q] HTC One X Bricked from CM Flash

    I'm going to get it out of the way before you get bombarded, but you should have S-OFF'd prior to flashing. Not that it's strictly necessary, it just reduces the chances of things like this happening (by a lot). Plus, it removes the need to separately flash boot.img from the ROM you're flashing...

    Post [MOD][UNOFFICIAL] Tripple Swap - Turbo Booster ( System , Cache , Data )

    So, after a bit of testing, it seems like you need a TON of swap space for this to be effective (at least on Sense 5). The disadvantage to this swap method, it seems, is that unless you select a ton of swap space, your phone will grind to a halt as soon as RAM and swap are filled up. I'm running...

    So, I installed the Turbo Booster on the latest CleanROM, first doing a aroma-default cache/system dual swap. At first things were ostensibly faster, but then slowed down incredibly as the RAM filled up (which it is wont to do on Sense ROMs). I reinstalled the caches, increasing the size to...

    Post Discussion regarding Qualcomm Optimized Dalvik

    Just to make sure, is this irrelevant to us Sense users? Would love to give an optimized Dalvik a shot if it means ~4hour screen-on time, but if we already have it on Sense 5/4.2.2, then this won't help me all too much.

    No. In the embedded Superuser app, I had Superuser Access set to Apps and ADB, and Automatic Response set to Automatically allow new requests, and it still wouldn't work. It was only after flashing the latest Superuser zip that I got root access. This is with the 8/14 build.

    You may as well just start from square one and go back to recovery, wipe, flash, reboot to bootloader (adb reboot-bootloader) and then fastboot flash boot boot.img.

    Has HTC said 2013 for Sense 5 on our device? I haven't read anything to corroborate that, but maybe I missed the press release or something. The One has a different chipset, too, but Sense 5 made its way to us from it. The smaller display on the Mini is the same resolution as the One X, which...

    Are there any other mods that can be done? I don't know about you, but I'd love a larger battery in the Evita, even if it is just a "15%" increase (I'm pretty sure others have reported higher gains than that). What about antenna mods or other camera mods or anything?
