Video of Defy underwater - Defy General

Hello, I just made this underwater video with defy :
Have fun !
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrnNI9rc4FQ

Yep, nice vid, not seen any women showing tech around here like that.. ;0)

looks like the phone footage, when it's playing video, is recorded not in the water

I agree. The viewing angle goes from barely visible to without any glare/reflection/with perfect colours/contrast almost instantly.
But then.. I doubt realism is the real object of the video

I approve of this video.

i forgot to look at the phone

You really should put a NSFW tag on this....lots of people check these forums from work and nudity is the last thing you expect on a board like this.
Not saying there is anything wrong with your video ... but I think fair warning is in order.

Very nice video indeed.

Surprised that's still on youtube..
But yeah.. Two thumbs up.

Ok guys, I need some help here, I don't get it.
I've seen the video 5-6 times now, are you SURE there's a phone in it?

YIKES!
Could you try the same thing with an iPhone 4?

Ummm,... I have the sudden urge to swim....

Weren't you afraid of what could happen to your cellphone after being underwater like that? I mean, after some time watching people doing that on several videos on youtube I decided to test my phone and I can tell you that it freaked me out the last time I did that! It was submerged in a regular sink and for less then 10 secs, and everything seemed to be ok, but a few minutes later my phone went kinda crazy. I couldn't pull down the top bar, and it kept going black (as if the screen had been locked) but it wouldn't come back, so I had to take out the battery to turn it on again. I swear to God I thought I had lost it, but after a while, I fully charged the battery and let it inside my car under the sun for a couple of hours, so it started to work properly again. But after I got a scratch on my gorilla glass, and after this underwater episode, I'm done playing with these "life proof" features.

And how did you manage to record using 720p ?????? Just a smal detail really isn't it?

That's funny. What was expected? It's dust proof, and water resistant to 1 M, not grind in gravel proof, and can go to the bottom of the ocean.

me too!!

Can you imagine a car body made of that plastic
Damn...I had no idea how decent it was. I guess Samsung really know their hardware.

Yea, I figured it wouldn't be that brittle.

Normally when you bend plastic , it goes white at the bend point as is damaged/weakened , no sign of that here
This grade of plastic is more expensive than aluminium, and for good reasons. Im happy I have this phone and not one with an aluminium cover.
Great, I thought mine was going to break when taking it off lol
that's pretty damn impressive.
Not even fatigue
im amazed, but has anyone else tried this with theirs?

I was about to but then i looked inside my pants and realised my balls are not big enough.
Before people go trying this are we sure this is not third party? Don't recognise the logo under the camera, unless it's a carrier one?
I've tried it with mine, no problem at all.. It pop's right back to it's original state.. Did it however when temperatures were high (>25 Celcius), somehow i get the feeling that matters also a bit..
By the way.. The logo is of Anycall, it's the Korean telecom division from Samsung.
thats awesome, seems better than the SE Vivaz battery cover (my last phone)...
there's been no day i havent found something new and awesome about my SGSII =)
lmao nice one tbh first time i took it off was like omg its gonna break now i just rip it off lol but put my mind at rest im not gonna damage it
Has anybody tried bending their backcover like in the video, just in case it was a special rubber one
No way.. I wont try it
When I first took the cover off my new SGS2, I was extremely disappointed to see how flimsy the back cover was and was handling it like it was going to snap at any second..
Very nice to see that it is pretty strong, although I have no intention of testing the hardiness of my own one
Gutsy
It definitely took balls for that guy to try it on the video the first time. We can't even try it after seeing a demonstration!
I got so relieved when i saw that video xD
Got so scared the couple times i had to remove it
"Oh god, need to open the case again, its totally gonna break now!"
My thought every single time xD

Anyone else Trying to live with Yellow Spots...

I have two small yellow spots. Upper left and upper right. I have already rooted and installed custom rom and have been playing with my phone for a week now. I love this phone and am trying to live with it even though I know I shouldnt.
Anyone else in the same boat? Or did everyone that had this problem return there phone. I bought mine unlocked on amazon.
Has anyones spots disappeared? I was googling the pictures of the Iphones that had the same problem and they look Identical to what I have. Its not as bad as some peoples pictures I have seen though.
hmmmm.... what to do...

how long have you had your phone
spots can go away with use
1 - week.
Thats what I was hoping and the reason I havent returned it yet. You can press on them and they disappear. When you let go they come back. I was reading in a thread somewhere that someone had massaged them for a little bit each day for a week and they went away.
They also get brighter as the phone heats up.

http://youtu.be/cuv0VMBkWZ0
crazy video
damn,its water proff...BIG LIKE!!!
never come s3
look this http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=e3ri6vrmPbc
I'm kinda confused, a lot of people complaining about screen being prone to scratch, a lot complaining about not being gorilla glass etc etc...
As the other guy how had his one x going down from the second window floor and still working fine.
Had switch my yellowish Xperis S to th one X that arrived at home today but i'm on a trip so tomorrow is a big day, huge expectation about it after frequenting this forum for like 2 weeks now!
Hopefully no screen flex, bad screen ripple, gps or any other issue!

How can that be possible cant belive ...
Wow these videos are amazing, at least i don't have to worry about my phone too much now. Especially after that one dude on here dropped his from a window and it survived
Beat that SIII
Shock & awe!
just plain wow! Now I'm prouder with my HTC One X more than ever!
Next time I get into an argument with an iPhone or Samsung user, I'm gonna smash his brains in with my HOX!!!!
Even better, someone should do a phone fight off video, where they smash the phones against each other, like HOX vs SIII or HOX Vs iPhone!!!
One day before my protective screen arrived I accidentally dropped my work phone over the HOXs' screen. It's a heavy blackberry and I was sure it would have damaged the screen. To my surprise there was not a single micro scratch there. Nonetheless the protective screen arrive and I´m happy to have it on
My HOX got run over
So today i dropped my HOX and my mates car ran it over... needless to say i was crapping my pants when i was picking it up to see the damage but to my surprise nothing!!!!! Not even a scratch, dent or anything! I am using a plastic case and a screen protector so that would have absorbed a lot of the punishment but still very happy no damage to the phone!

I would like to know if the touchscreen is damaged or the lcd display or something else?
Can you fully boot into ROM (android desktop)?
Yes I can, I just posted this photo because this black points are more visible on a white background...

That could be caused by two things.
1. Water damage
2. Over heating of device(maybe the battery)
A friend of mines android phone got too hot that he had the same result. His was worse than this. when you look at his device carefully, you could see the shape of the battery underneath the screen.
It might be you left the device in a hot place or under you pillow or something like that, without any air flow with 3g or wifi connected.

According to the picture, the damage seem to have affected the screen. I dont think its the touch panel.
Is it replaceable at home or do I have to take the phone to htc service?
It depends on your skills. You can but it's not too easy.
This may help you:

Nema na čemu

Yeah....when in Hawaii

Do NOT go snorkeling with your Note 4 in your pocket!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Was the day of my friend's wedding and the groom and I wanted to go snorkeling before the sunset wedding......and well, I was out there about 30 minutes before realizing it was still in my swimsuit pocket.....
I knew there was probably no hope, doused it with alcohol, rice'd it for over a week......and of course it's dead. I luckily had my Note 3 with me in Hawaii so I switched to it, and I got myself a Nexus 6 for christmas...thankfully.
But here's a picture of the inside to cringe at!

First off, great username. Second, OUCH. Nice pic of the mess though, kinda one of those "and now I know" things.
You could always try an ultrasonic cleaner. I've brought back some phones back from the dead. Used isopropyl alcohol and ran them through couple times if they were really bad. Scrubbed everything with a toothbrush after and ran though the cleaner one last time. Sometimes you get some parts you might have to change out but something is better than nothing...
You're either from Hawaii or a climate that doesn't get snow. Somebody who only gets 3 months of warm weather would never have this issue.

Thanks for the pic that is crazy! It is hard to tell from the pic where are the other liquid damage indicators besides the one behind the battery. My 2 day old note 4 took a dive in the toilet and I got it out after a couple days all is back to normal but I was wondering if I tripped and damage indicators. Thanks

So is this only when your in Hawaii snorkeling or snorkeling anywhere?....lmao sounds like someone was trying to brag their in Hawaii. BTW the phone is designed to be resistant not submerged for extended periods..get real...

Note 4 isn't water resistant... never was.
Man, that's unfortunate. At least you had the backup. I would say the thing that really killed it was salt-water. If you were in fresh water there may have been a chance, but that salt water messes stuff up quick.
Stop it with the snide comments. There is no need to be childish. Thread cleaned. Last warning.
And now we continue with our regularly scheduled program.
