What if I tried to replace the LCD with the AMOLED from the One S
Doubt the tapes are gonna be the same or the overall LCD will fit the way it should.

True but I'm just guessing, you should get a pic of both parts and compare them, possible google their dimensions, etc.

I got a GS2 for free, but it has screen burn in pretty bad. Any ways to fix it or atleast make it easier to deal with.

replace the screen?
I doubt the LCD can be fixed, as the liquid crystals are "dried" In a fixed position now, your best bet is to replace the screen.

Hey what happens if you take a custom rom for a phone and try to use it on a different phone?

He means you brick it beyond repair and it becomes "an expensive paper weight." Since a paper weight is a slightly heavy block of some sort to hold down your papers, a useless phone fits in that descriptionn

Can you use similar device kernels or do the same rules apply as roms.

Not really, although that would be repairable, it would boot loop your phone...

Well, i finally dropped it. I wa sitting down and the phone was sitting in my pocket. (Small pockets+big phone, not a good idea). When i got up it slipped out of my pocket and rolled a bunch of times. Luckily, nothing happened to the screen bt the bezel is chipped pretty bad on 3/4 corners. Just wanna know, will samsung replace it? How much will it be? And is there any other alternate solution thats cheaper?
Thanks

Hey, really sorry to hear that!
Ok now i don't think samsung will do anything unless it's a mistake from their side. Still you can go and ask them and if they agree with to change the bezel then very good! I am pretty inexperienced about this thing but telling you from what I've heard and seen. If they don't agree then you might have to pay them to change the bezel.

Yeah im pretty sure they wont replace without a fee. Thanks for the reply!

Also, replacing the bezel might be expensive. I read that it's attached to the screen.

Yeah, that sucks
But honestly, i dont know why samsung used so much plastic on a premium device. The bezel couldve been made out of something much stronger. Look at the iphone 5, i know it lacks in software but i gotta give it to apple, they made it out of very strong and materials.

Have you not read all the bad reviews about the iPhone 5 chipping on the corners of the bezel? Just search Google

Are there other screen protectors from other phones that are same size as our screen? At least that would cover the LCD. Thunder bolt?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
From what I have read, we have to get Rezound screen protectors only, because next to the front camera are two important parts. My screen protector has cutouts for 2 piece near the front camera, and a cut-out for the front camera.
Hopefully that was helpful, lol.
I bought the clear Verizon pack and it looks great. Used the bathroom stream trick for a perfect install. Will see how long it lasts but at least I have 2 more.

Haha nice. I bought "Premium Japanese Screen Protectors" 3 pack on Amazon for around $7. They work pretty well so far!

The thunderbolt ones work with a bit of trimming off of the side. You will have about a quarter inch if glass unprotected at the top and bottom.

Applying it in a really damp room catches all of the airborne dust in the steam. Helps with keeping dust off while you apply.

Would you guys do it if you had the chance? P.s not asking for volunteers to trade my nexus 4. Just want your opinion.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
considering that the screen is no where as nice and that its lower storage with base model, no, but mainly because it will not work on verizion lol. I love my DNA and its basically the same phone spec wise aside from battery, camera, and screen. This is my opinion of course.

I believe he is referring to paranoid android. I ran that Rom on my resound and loved it. My wife currently runs an official release on her galaxy nexus.

Not a chance. The one thing I don't like about Nexus devices (and I may be the only one) is that all the roms are AOSP. There's really no variety. Back when I had my Gnex I was incredibly bored since all the roms looked and acted the same. I know it's getting better and that a lot of new features are popping up (especially in PA), but I like having the option to run Sense or AOSP. And I have a huge soft spot for Sense, that's something that you'll never see on a Nexus device.

That's how i feel as well. After a while aosp only gets boring.

It all depends on what you want. If I were on tmobile I would seriously think about it but since I am on Verizon its not an option. I love AOSP and thus would love a nexus device. The nexus4 also has aws support for non 1900 farmed areas.
