On the G1 you get no flash so how can you add or convert or accessories for getting flash?
use a torch.
mod your phone so that it will fit an led> solder the led connections to the power source of the g1> rewrite camera code to whenevr u push the camera button the light will come on.
IDK if this is possible but i am sure it is

Interestingly enough, I looked into that. The "rear flash pack" the guy is talking about doesnt exist. The static image at the beginning of the phone with the back off is PHOTOSHOPPED to show an LCD on there. Yay, he touched an app on the screen that "turned on the lcd"! I could disassemble an lcd flashlight and tape the contact point, battery and lcd to the back of my phone and duplicate this video. I could even put an icon on my desktop to press too, just to make it look nifty! Notice how nowhere in the video does he show the back of the phone ON video in good light.
Oh, and very interesting that people have been asking the guy for the link for his "rear flash pack" for almost a year and hes given 0 responses.
Theres no proof of concept there. You know how ridiculous a mod like that would be? Not only would you have to have the knowledge of the circuitboards to solder the lcd leads on, but you would also have to know android well enough to know how to activate those specific contact points. Hell, we cant even figure out how to crack the rogers coding yet, what makes you think that someone out there figured all this out?
EDIT: Heres proof:
This is the "picture" from said video.
Increase the image to biggest size and notice the following:
-The LCD holes arent round.
-The LCD holes are PIXELATED
-The LCD holes are drilled right through a flimsy metal clip under the battery door. Look at it on YOUR phone and tell me how thats possible without the clip breaking into pieces and falling off.
-the rim of the LCD holes has obviously had the burn tool in photoshop applied to it (notice how its darker around the edges than any other part of the phone.
Oh, and the coup de grace: THE PICTURE IS AN UNBOXING PHOTO FROM THE PHONE'S RELEASE LAST SEPTEMBER. You can see the G1 box and all of the box contents on the floor right under the phone!
Well.. that brings us back to square one, ill bust out my nikon as soon as I get my phone up and running again, ran into some minor (i mean major) technical difficulties.

Jeez, got my new Prime yesterday, from my insurance company, as the old one's screen cracked.
So I rooted it and installed all the apps and customized it just as I wanted it with some mods. After a while the problems started...
1) Screen went black and had to reboot it. That happened at least 10 times. A few times I had to press the ON-button several times before anything happened.
2) The screen just goes nuts with the colors ie. turns pink and blotchy...
and
3) When I connected the dock...smoke rose from the dock and smelled like welding... Ok, I thought there had been some dirt that burned off. Connected again and noticed it wouldn't fit properly, couldn't lock.
As I unconnected it started to smoke again!!!
Stupid as I am, I tried a third time and...BLAM! Small flames came from the dock!!!
Amazingly the tablet itself is OK, except from 1 and 2...
Guess I'll have to call ASUS
Funny, I now have one Prime with a cracked screen that works fine and one Prime with good screen that is a complete mess and could probably burn down my house!
W.Z.
Ouch! Take some pics please.
i really find that hard to believe....
with the amount of voltage and current the prime is able to provide, i highly doubt it is able to create a small fire unless you did something really stupid with it....smokes yes, fire no.....
but please do post some pictures and let us know what asus says

only smoke i smell is bull**** troll
I'll try it later and see what happens...
Can be difficult to take pics,but I can try video.
Hopefully there won't be any flames (or BIG sparks, really) or smoke, as I'm scared it'll damage the tablet...
And I don't think it is "really stupid" to connect the tablet to the dock...
Let's see later what happens :fingers-crossed:
I wonder if I have to contact the insurance company as well, as they got me this crappy one.
W.Z.
once again, with the power coming from the dock and tablet, you shouldn't be getting any flames or a big spark, small one maybe
but then again, im not sure whats inside the prime so i can't be 100% sure on the spark, but flame no... unless you spilled flammable liquid in there... but that will fall under doing something stupid
I guess you have never seen a LIPO battery fire.
...and the strange thing is that it didn't come from the connector, but from the hinge's left side !?
The flame/spark resembled lighting a small match, believe it or not...
W.Z.
Well it certainly wasn't as explosive as in the video...!!!
Funny that's a Finnish video, my fellow citizens experimenting
But yes, guess we all have read about phones and batteries exploding and caught fire.

Hrrm...well, it is freakin' difficult to take a picture with one hand when you're doing something that needs two hands...unless you're a mutant that got three?
Video is easier as I can start recording and then stabilizing the phone/cam on a stand. And no my phone doesn't record to VHS...

Just take the video and post it so we don't have five pages of people calling bull****
Were sorry, however lighting your prime on fire voids your warrantee so we will be unable to issue an RMA.

I've seen that before - when I was building my own projector. It could be a bent ffc cable. You might want to crack it back open and verify they are all properly seated in their slots and nothing is pressing against them.
Hope that helps!

I re-opened the case. There does not appear to be anything bent or pressing up. Even the case loose, the screen is still like that. I've tried slightly pressing anything with cables attached and the picture does not flicker.

looks like this is what I was looking for. compuw22c seems to be right on track below with what is going on.
Looks like a cracked screen if you look just right and down of that "cross hair" and would explain the semi working nature of the display. Maybe give us a close up photo of that "crack" to confirm? Maybe you flexed the screen just a bit too much

Wow, that much damage? It appears as though there is a crack on the LCD not the glass, as I can not see the crack when the prime is off. Originally I used a plastic prying tool that I bought online for this purpose, but it broke within minutes. I then used a small screwdriver and pried the case enough to get a fingernail wedged in between, then I inserted a credit card and pried all around the unit. I didn't realize I have done that much damage (cracked LCD and potentially a broken ribbon). I guess my loss should serve as a warning to others.
To be honest, the only reason why I wanted to open the case was to get better wifi coverage. I use the unit a lot for note taking and for the brower when at work. My co-workers with other tablets are able to find wifi networks that I can't, and I was getting a bit frustrated by the Prime.
Now that mine is broken, I can honestly say, I won't be buying another Asus tablet to replace it. With the poor handling of the wifi (saying that it works enough), GPS (removal of the spec), and the few apps that crashed my prime (like World Series of Poker and Where's waldo to name a couple). It has honestly made me rethink the entire Android platform.
I may throw my chips into a Win 8 pro tablet after a few months of it's release, and I don't want an Ipad. I guess I'll be back to using my laptop for now.
Thanks All for the help.
At least someone who has bricked their unit but has a good screen might be interested in buying. Bad luck, but it does show how careful you need to be when opening devices.
Perhaps the LCD is not cracked, just looked again.
The construction of the Prime is quite poor. Did you by chance start opening it from the bottom and not the side? I recall a while back someone wrote about damaging their ribbon cable like that.
Really looks like a cracked LCD.
Cracked mine while trying to replace the glass at the bottom left and the entire screen went kaput, but here it's more centered and it works on the left side prior to what looks like a crack at the bottom. did you first insert the screwdriver right over the right dock mounting point?
I've seen people using putty knives (putty spreading tools used in construction) to open larger panels with success. they're thin and durable- perfect for the job.
Sad to see another prime go like that If only they had LCD's for sale..... I couldn't find one for mine
Has anyone noticed that the bottom edge of your DNA has a slight 1-2mm shadowy area where the backlight is dim as well as random areas along the sides (this is not the capacitive light bleed which most units all have, which I don't consider a big deal)? I've had numerous replacements and all have exhibited these issues including a few Verizon store units. I find it surprising that this hasn't been reported upon in any reviews. It's fairly annoying on white and light colors, the majority of what I use the phone for (side-by-side with my 4s, the 4s has even lighting to the edges). I also checked out the HTC One in an AT&T store and couldn't see these issues, so it looks DNA rather than HTC specific.
It's a bit hard to make out from pictures, but it is visible.

If the top of that pick is the bottom of the phone, then I can see the dim area, but you're right about the sides looking uniform. I wonder if the refurbishment process introduces issues along the long sides.
yeah they all have it dude. most people just don't see stuff like us lol i know exactly w hat you mean but it doesn't bother me..
now how about this...turn your phone at an angle and look straight down to the top, and notice on the left and right of the verizon logo these 2 black squarish looking spots? lol

Yeah, man; it's a curse. I'm one of those who notices the digitizer when the display is on as well.
Because of those lights, I think the top 1/8 of the screen is a bit brighter than the rest as well, especial if you're viewing in landscape. If you do the same on the bottom, you see nothing, like they didn't put any LEDs there. The inconsistency I've noticed along the sides isn't the exact same between any two phones (I've had a number of replacements mostly due to other issues). I bothers me pretty much any time I use the browser, maps app, texting, or anything like that, but I think i'm slowly getting used to it. From what I can tell of hands on time with the HTC One, it looks like they've mostly avoided this in that model, if not because of a larger bezel to hide the diffuser/LEDs in.
OK so far my g5 has been pretty decent...I do have some light bleed but not a lot...I do however have a decent bit of chin gap...I have a case on it which helps to sorta keep it flush but there's still enough of a hairline gap that I can stick like paper and like say a fingernail thru...so my question is what is the potential of issues with that gap? I'm concerned that like if I have the phone out say for a few moments in the rain or something that liquid can get in there...I already can see some dust build up (I work in a dusty type place) like I said the phones been pretty solid so I don't want to trade it in and maybe get a worse device...I was thinking of maybe getting a very thin piece of rubber or foam and putting it there to help kinda seal the gap...or should I just exchange it if they let me?

I got one on mine, too. Only mine is near the chin lock, the other side is pretty sealed tight so yea it's rather uneven although not by a long shot (I can see light coming through that gap).
So is your chin gap even? how did it go?
Only a bit of the left side got gap about 1cm long or less on mine not really visible and not annoying but some users got bigger problem on this!

You can sometimes see light get through it too? Anyways thanks for sharing, I guess we'll just have to live with it.
Yeah i put it on the window and i could see the light only there but i guess its a tiny gap but also if i look it from the side i can see that it is a bit more levered than my phone is about +0.5mm. I knew that this phone wouldn't have super quality but it is still the best i could find on this budget!
I have an even chin gap on both sides. If I push the bottom up it disappears but as soon as I let go it returns. It doesn't bother me, I've had this phone in a case since day 1 so I've never noticed it until I read this thread and checked.

Pretty sure this isn't due to the gap, I have dust in my G5 and no dust in camera lens dept which should be sealed anyway.

Replacement grills for the Axon 7. If yours break or you just want to try another design, you can use these!
If you want a specific design, you can tell me and i'll do my best.
These models are UNTESTED - We don't know if they are the right size yet. Please print one and tell me where I need to refine the model!
They might be a few tenths of a millimeter off, but not more than that. my main worry is if the height is right - if someone can test and measure, i'd appreciate it (and fix it if needed)!
The grills are in .STL format, tolerances 0.05mm (You can open them with Win10's 3d file viewer)

Are all these holes needed? I mean the speakers are not this "long" right?
A black one with cutouts only where its necessary would be awesome.
In wish i had a printer :/
With a standard 0.4mm nozzle, the model with all the holes will not be printable on an FDM machine. Maybe with an 0.2mm nozzle but I think the holes will still cause problems.

The problem is that the top speaker is in the middle and the bottom speaker is on the lower right corner. So it would be really weird

With a standard 0.4mm nozzle, the model with all the holes will not be printable on an FDM machine. Maybe with an 0.2mm nozzle but I think the holes will still cause problems.

As long as the outermost shape is okay, just with having the holes as rough marks to drill them later is enough. That's why I want someone to print and test them, so that I can improve the design until it can be printed and sanded as little as possible.
These models are based on a 1200dpi scan of the grills. They might be smaller or bigger, or the camera hole might be slightly off-center.

I mean get a piece of paper and write down your idea. I make the models.
You can send stuff to print and then pay for it. I don't know how expensive that would be but it's known to be a common thing, since people can make custom things like Rubik cubes and get them all printed and ready to assemble. Since these pieces are tiny I guess it wouldn't be very expensive. But I have to test them first and see if the size is right or not
i wish those speakers in black,is there any video that show how the remove/replace the speaker grills?
scale is bad....
they are less than 10mm.... really tiny
scale it and quote me, I print it. is a few minutes to do it
Just wow! Love the Idea and it could be awesome to use black Ones with bigger Diamond shaped holes... Wish i could Print some, but i would also mind buying a pair of them...
Black Grills with Black Panel... Mhhhhhh

I don't know why that could've happened, bur I don't know how to scale them. My .par files are on scale, around 70 mm long. I'll see how I can save them to retain the size, but it's weird

Well there are services where you send the file and they print the grills for you and send them... You're on Brazil, right?
