Good morning, I bought a star a9330 (N8000), but with a black spot on the screen, the seller asked me to put in the refrigerator wrapped with plastic wrap and leave for an hour, I found it strange, does it work or not?

I have heard of this to quickly cool a phone that is overheating but never for a screen spot. Nonetheless it won't hurt. I say try it and if it doesn't work go get uryour money back.

Give it back to the seller, tell him to keep it wherever he wants, wrapped with whatever crap he prefers and get it done himself.
U payed him, act like a boss!

Aren't the mic ports in a different spot on the i777 models? How is your call audio working and does your speakerphone mic work at all?

I am running Serendipity 9.3 with it's built in kernal and have no problems talking and no problems with speaker phone either. Voice is clear.
Doesn't look bad. How long it took for shipping?

Are you sure? The "Top/Headphone Jack" picture has the hole near the edge towards the black front casing. But on my phone it's towards the edge near the battery cover.

Maybe just me, but it feels much more "well-built".
The battery back door is much harder and stiffer than the flimsy original black one.
Also the batter back door is smooth, I personally like the feel better when compared to the textured original battery door.

like a more glossy feel in other words?
EDIT: I also noticed that at the end of the video your power off menu was popping up a lot, does the power button stick at times or anything?

Yes it is glossy and looks really nice in the sun
Oh sorry, my bad. That was just my way of testing the power button without turning off the screen haha.
No the power button and volume keys don't stick at all.
EDIT: Oh I see what you mean. You mean the part when I test the volume button, a menu pops up in the back right?
That is because I use the AudioManager app and when I press the volume buttons, a menu pops up that asks me if I want to change sound profile
It is not the power menu.

I also saw that but if you look closely, they are only selling you the home button, if you choose full housing in the drop down menu it becomes more expensive

K so I bought my 1st phone from expansys and had bad overheating issues. They were very nice in exchanging it for me. But now I noticed on by replacement phone there are like 6-8 spider cracks around the one side of the rear speaker. You can tell the back plate cracked from factory speaker install. Did anyone notice this on their phone? I emailed expansys again. Do u think they'd give me a hard time on getting another replacement? I hate to see the back case crack worse then it already is.

can you post a picture of the phone?
On top of that add some other issues like black screen ink marks and tell them backcover makes a sound when u click on it. That should be enough to get a refund or replacement

I do have those black ink marks, im not really worried about it at the moment. What I worry is will it worse and be visible on the months/weeks to come?
this is the best attempt i could make....i can't tell if its just the glaze that is cracked or what...but come on you pay 700 for a phone it shouldn't be like that....

I would like to ask the owners of white SXS if nano coating is really effective against dirt or stains as it is claimed in many reviews? I have just seen pen writing on back cover. But does it work against any other dirt? And is white cover stil white? Doesnt it start to turn a bit yellow? Thanks
Its white like first day and yes its repeling the dirt, dust, fingerprints and else.

It is working perfectly. Also, I experienced the felt-pen test thanks to my 4-years-old son. It returned perfect.
I had a blue strip (pen) on the back and some blue finger prints on the back(also from the pen), I tried to rub them off but nothing happen..they were at the same spot, but the next day I woke up and I checked the back of my White SXS the finger prints and the strip were gone.. and my back was like new ! so yes, it works.
While rubbing my finger across the Verizon logo I can feel it protrudes.. I feel like this can be rubbed or gently scratched off.. Has anyone given it a go yet?
never mind after closer examination I can now tell it is etched... damit

lol Well there is this as an option for the white one, although $7 seems rather high for a vinyl sticker

Yeah, I have white and it's pretty annoying. My button even looks like it's a bit twisted, and isn't lined up properly. I'll probably try and take care of covering it with something myself instead of buying a sticker. The white of the button is even more white than the rest of the phone.

Nope. Etched means it's physically carved into the button. You aren't getting that off.

Since it's etched INTO the button.. meaning the words Verizon and their dumb logo is basically cut into it.. so no, applying all the nailpolish remover in the world will not do what we'd like.
I'm also bothered by the illusion that the whole damn thing is crooked! lol I have tried to turn the key a bit to see if there's slop..
I have white also and while it's a little annoying at first, I'll live with it.
its a little tiring but I will wait for other solutions which are sure to come soon

i'd like to mention i dont think the gray is etched in. I compared both phones and my nails dont get caught in the gray one like the white does. THis could be because the button is painted. I dont really want to gamble this theory with nail polish remover tho or non-acetone chemical.
The logo on the button isn't a big deal to me....thought I would hate it, but nah.

HA! 10 FREAKING DOLLARS...... for those little slices?
No sign of it last night. Today i called and they had it in the lost and found.
Anyone want to take bets on what it looks like? No case no screen cover.
I did go through the bs of changing all my passwords last night as i have no lock on it also. That was annoying but probably was time to do that anyways.
While i had everything backed up one scary thought was if someone logged in they could have deleted my backups :/
Ohh nooo...itll prolly be pristine man mayb a lil scratch on the bezel....:/

Well its back in my possession.... it appears to held up pretty well. there is a major dent in the side and about 2-3 little scraches on the screen and one bigger scratch. Very usable. I thought for sure it would have been smashed into bits.
And i am thankful for whoever turned it in

I can post pics if people want but its really not that exciting. Had it been smashed into dust then maybe

Someone knew what they were doing. It's good you changed your passwords. Losing my phone would be my worst nightmare. I normally do not use lockscreen security, but I will probably change that.

Yeah me too. It will be nice when phones use built-in biometric security, and no more PINs or patterns. I check my phone no less than 50 times a day, and doing a PIN/pattern each time gets tedious.

Even since I got my phone stolen and people started posting some really nasty stuff all over Facebook and twitter i now use a lock screen. It might be tedious but it's worth it for a little bit of protection to ward off most people. In the end if someone wants to get in your phone they are going to but having a slight deterrent is nice.
I agree, pictures anyway!!

Yea this phone is pretty tough. I left mine in the lightbar of my patrol car and drove off the other day. Realized a half mile down the road and was like oh ****. Made the block and couldn't find it. Searched for like 30 minutes and chalked it up to a loss. Next day I drove the block three time at 5mph and found the phone up against the curb. UAG case was off, battery cover off, battery out and screen down. Was like Yes! But I bet the screen is busted (mainly just wanted pics off it) turned it over and not a scratch on the screen. Looked like it had tire print on it though. 2 minor dings along the side bezel was all the damage the phone took. Case had big black tire marks and was scratched to hell though.
Pen popped out and never did find it was the only bad thing.
It's a tough phone for sure.
I would call that some serious luck bro... as my Luck Stands.. I had to get my vision checked and I went to Target.. I set my previous phone (Thunderbolt) on the table and forgot I had done so and went in and had my vision looked at.. came out and it was gone.. :-\ good thing it was only a TBolt and not my Note or I would have raged on that store. LOL
Lucky lucky.
