First of all, I baby all of my gadgets like no other lol.
We got in a huge fight after a super extended happy hour and my phone went flying through a 1/4' thick glass vase, embedding itself into the wall. Never knew she could ninja star a phone that well.
Anyway I realized at that point that these phones are beasts! The bottom whole right side of the "chasis" shifted up a bit to the top. Bottom right corner is bent. Chip in the metal dead center at the top and a TINY nick in the gorilla glass.
So now the right side of the bezel doesnt sit flush with the screen anymore and that is about it.
I am super impressed by the strength of these bad boys. I was more upset that this is a launch day phone with hboot 1.4(not taking it to sprint to ruin my unicorn). In the end all is well and she will be paying for my Gnex when it comes out(when ever it does lol).

So it still works?
thats a bad hit!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been doing so much android work at night my gf has been one angry chic for weeks now. I swear one days she's gonna do something like this! Only saving grace is I usually am holding it to work on it flashing stuff or whatever. Good luck!

Well girls want attention, you can also flash that rom on a time she not around you.
i think i also need to keep the mobile away from my gf. i think ur gf teach us very good lesson...
Yes he learned us make sure your gf does not get the chance to trow your phone to the wall.
That's what happens in the "My super sweet 16" generation
Still works like a champ. Cams are still aligned properly. Speaker and everything still work with no problems. It just bothers the hell out of me seeing my phone like this(for the anal retentive).
Will def be keeping this as a backup though.
You are making me put all devices down now. My wife just gave me a look 0_o

I agree. Substance abuse. Violent outburst. Making excuses for inappropriate behavior. I am going to guess trust issues somewhere in the mix too.
These things never get better. I had a girlfriend like this once. After she got done beating me up, I got slapped with a VPO a couple months later. Apparently I was now stalking her... While the charges were dismissed with prejudice, I had to hire an attorney to motion for them to be expunged.
When I made her leave I wasn't there for her getting her things. She stole the batteries out of everything electronic. All the clothes hangers. Probably $200 worth of toilet paper, paper towels and laundry soap. Put some kind of plant that she called "our love fern" (it was bamboo :wtf: ) down the garbage disposal. Also she crushed up a box of Pop-tarts in the non-disposal side of my kitchen sink. The sick ***** even took the ice cube trays.
I personally couldn't give a **** less about your phone or how much you baby your electronics. Kudos that it still works, but the phone is only a few hundred dollars to replace. Move on before it gets worse...and more expensive.

Finally found one in my local Walmart, Massapequa NY if anyone is interested, but it was a 32gb, not the one I could easily afford right now. Had I not bought the Note 2, this would be a different thread. So damn close. My major concern is that it would be to heavy and/or big to be comfortable. Of course I couldn't open the box to get a better idea either. So frustrating.

For what it's worth, I find it really comfortable to hold. I have average-sized hands and, admittedly, not the strongest wrists. I don't find it too heavy at all--marginally lighter than the iPad (3rd Gen) that I used to own. Fits in my hand nicely, and the tacky rubber housing helps. This is for both portrait and landscape.
It does look humongous in portrait mode, though, but easy to hold nonetheless.
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. I probably would have grabbed the 16gb and smooth talked my girl, but $499+ right now... Probably wouldn't have gone over so well. My Big concern is will I use the damn thing? I just want one so damn bad though!!

I get more reading done and efficiently on the Nexus 10 than I do with the actual textbooks. Not sure why I still buy the textbooks when I have the digital/ off copies though...

Almost every Staples I've been in that sells tablets has a display model of the nexus 10. Could always go in one of those and poke at it with it in your hand to see if you like it!
I didnt know that, I damn. I have to go check it out. Thanks.

I know this question could be answered in many different ways. More along the lines of people saying yes it is a good phone since I'm asking in this forum Lol. But O figured its better asking people here on XDA about the device since I know people here adore their device and use it in every way possible....So how is this phone? How is the battery, camera, speed of the phone etc etc. Im looking into buying one for my wife. She has the incredible 2 and is ready for a new phone and I can get it for a pretty good price. To her, she wouldn't probably notice anything like I would about the phone. But I still wanna make sure she has a nice phone to have. I'd appreciate it if I could get some responses to this. I've done research on the phone. I know most the stuff about it. But like I said, I wanna know from people here on XDA. Thanks

Short answer - IMHO, Yes.
I came to this phone from the OG Dinc. When I bought this phone, it was the only 4G phone smaller than 4.3 inches. I do not want a big phone. The OG Dinc was better made than the Dinc4g, but it the only real annoyance is the creaky back cover issue. WIth a little tape and a few post-it notes, it isn't a big deal (fix instructions/pictures here). I could be wrong, but I think the OG DInc camera was a little better, but the 4G camera is still good.
Other than the creaky cover, it has been a great phone. Radio is good, the phone is quick and smooth. The 4G is amazingly fast, battery life is very good (as long as you have a decent signal). I rarely use WiFi.
Now with DirtyRacun s-off and root, the phone is even better. There are several active Devs doing great work on this phone: We have two different recoveries to choose from (CWM or TWRP). The ViperLTE ROM is rock solid and has great tweaks. If you're a CM lover, CyanogenMod 10.1 is in Unofficial Preview, and based on the thread comments, it is working extremely well. Other ROMs are being developed as well.
If you like a car dock, the iBolt car dock works great with this phone, too - even with a TPU case installed.
All in all - I'm quite happy with this phone.
Hey thanks so much for the reply. Great information...so its got a creaky back cover eh? Weird Lol and ya if it was my phone i would definitely root it and probably go with nitsuj's ROM. He does some great work. But its my wifes phone so probably will leave it stock. But....any idea of it getting jellybean anytime soon? I've tried searching and found out its on the list of getting it sometime down the road. Again thanks for your input

Only jb for this phone is the cm10 preview rom in the development section. Which runs nicely btw. There may be a jb update eventually but not anytime soon

agreed with everything already posted.
my #1 item was size. so this was really the only option... i waited a while for it to actually come out and so happy i did. i came from an original incredible.
currently rooted / soff with dirty racun and running viper rom with zero issues.
it would be nice if it were a little more popular and had some more activity around it.
So is anyone else experiencing the creaky back cover?

Credit for the creaky fix goes to jporter396.
That fix along with a case does indeed make the phone feel much more solid. I'm using this one: Link. It's cheap and effective, but I would like the front sides to come up a smidge higher.
yea - the creaky cover is pretty common. i don't notice it with a case on it...
i've always been partial to the tpu style cases - they don't add bulk, soft enough to help with some impact, not so sticky that they catch in pockets... i've been using this one -

Well now my wife wants to wait another couple months before getting a new phone Lol. So now it could be something different Haha sheesh. Well if I liked smaller phones I would no doubt probably own the Dinc4G. Seems like a great device. I love HTC and can't wait to see what the M7 is gonna be like. Anyone else excited about it?

Honestly man, it was difficult to watch. You speak too slowly, there is zero humor or entertainment for that matter, and a script would have helped it dramatically. I couldn't bear to watch the entire thing without wanting to rip my hair out. There is literally nothing about your review that would make me want to watch it over the myriad of other reviews out there. And 20 minutes is way too long when there isn't anything in the video to keep people's attention. It came across as a "hey, lets make a review video today" video and not something that had any degree of planning. I'm not trying to knock you, just provide some constructive criticism. I know reviews are hard to do, and even harder to keep people's attention while doing them. Just keep at it, and plan it out better next time.
Also, skrillex man? That's a BIG no no.
Short and sweet is the way to go and a better camera

Hi there, since yesterday was my birthday, I decided to get a QX-10 as a gift: I was perplexed at first, but now that Sony decided to give us a proper case/adapter, I went for it.
But, the only news I can find is the one saying that it was announced.
Has anybody any guess on when it will be available?
Sent from my C6833 using Tapatalk
Supposedly end of Jan but don't quote me on it. Only announced for Hong Kong so will have to be an ebay jobbie.
I am looking around as well.

Well, I actually ordered the QX10 just because they announced this case, they better release it in Europe and US too... but hey, I may import it as long as it costs more or less the same...
20/30 euros are fine, 50/60 are NOT.
Sent from my C6833 using Tapatalk
My QX10 is finally here, and I'm impressed with the overall quality.
But, there is no freaking way of attaching it on the Ultra.
I'm thinking now of getting some double sided tape on a case and attach the included adapter to it and see if it actually works...
I don't want to get a Z case just to cut the edges off (also because my wife has a Z, so it would be handy anyway)...

for video you have to connect the qx to pc.
the qx must be power on, if is of it will be only charge.
better if you have installed play memories home so the software will automaticly detect the camera and will open the windows for save foto e video

I waited to unlock the bootloader just for a thing like this, and now I'm so getting used to stock and am so comfy with it that the sole thought of zeroing all the data to begin from scratch is making me shiver.
I know I'll do it, but now it's not the time yet.
I have my TA backup from .532 ready, and at the moment I don't even feel the need of being rooted, but I know the time will come.

Little update: sick of waiting on Sony to give us a proper release date (they never do), I decided to get my just replaced case, the original clip and some adhesive strips i had lying around.
I simply attached two of them on the clip, attached the clip onto the case, and that's it, solved once and for all.
Every single strip can hold up to 2 kilograms, so I think 4 kilos will be enough for the lens...
And as a bonus they are detachable (you have to rotate applying a certain amount of force, or better yet going under it with a sharp object or a credit card etc), so they won't ruin the original clip.
Now when a colleague or a friend asks to try it I'll reply... go get yourself one, you cheap bastard!
