You sure they are scratches and not the antenna which is imbedded in the bar.

you better give us photo with macro zoom in the transparent bar.
if you have DSLR camera, it would be better :victory:
if it really scratches, better go to sonny support in your city/country.

I don't have a camera handy, but use your imagination :victory: basically just 3 hair line scratches that go down the strip... not really much else to say haha

Not to be rude or something, but the bar is just made of plastic, so it will scratch.
For me, a phone is something that i'm using several times a day. I'm taking it with me to every place i go and treat or mistreat it according to my current condition. Every f. day.
So yes, if i look closely, there are scratches.
And no, i dont think yo will be able to polish them away.
You might be able to replace the thing altogether, there's a dissasembly guide floating around here at xda.
My personal advice would be to just deal with it. Its not worth a second thought, just use the time to enjoy your life

Notification Bar Help?

Hey, I've been looking around for this, and I've had no luck.. I have like, a miniature obsession with that white notification bar, that theme. If anyone could direct me to a SFR 1.2 theme that has that, or a way to do that, that would be amazing. Thanks.
Never seen it on an epic, I think its that way for a reason because these samoleds get screen burn in easily, my moment had burn in on the top and the right side from its stock wite noti. bar but I'm sure it took alot of time too. Just speculating tho

I guess that seems logical, but on the Simply AOSP v.3.1.2 theme, there's an option to get it.. So I figured there has to be a way.
You could always change it yourself in the UOT kitchen.

Well after looking at it again, I think it would be too much of a pain to try and change the SUOMI.FI part.
So I will make a list of some other boot animations that I'd be willing to do.
Feel free to post ones you like as well.

HA! My vote is for the Android Fries Apple one. I've had the red rage one on another ROM before.
^^Edit** Would this one be usable? How could we get rid of the sounds?

Those are some awesome boot-ups... The fry apple one is killer. Buuuuut (always a but when u start off with a compliment lol), we are talking bout the Epic here. With a boot up time like it has, how far u gonna get into the bootup before the phone kicks on. The frys apple one is pretty long!

I'd probably have to cut out a bit and make the framerate faster.

Yeah there's too much. I'd just like to see the first 10 seconds or so without all the other stuff. Just up to the frying of the apple and then maybe a sweet looking Android logo or something

[REQ] Need Background Changed

Is anyone skilled in photoshop that would be willing to remove the background to this wallpaper for me and make it black instead of the off white?
Link is higher quality:
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EZ7ZKUtOQ...hts_Valerie+Poxleitner_iphone_wallpaper_3.jpg
That's gonna be awful difficult. Since she has a white shirt against a white background, the usual 'color to alpha' technique won't work.
Will take some work but I'll give it a shot
I suck at photoshop and only spent 5 minutes on it but here you go.
Here is the psd if somebody else feels like messing with it http://www.mediafire.com/?ra3q3fjo5sb2s8d
Here's a quick mask... I am at work right now with a boss that could be peering over my shoulder at any time so I wasn't able to do a good job on it at all. I could do one a lot better for you over this weekend, if you haven't found one you like by then.

Thanks, appreciate it.
It was nothing special really... Magnetic lassoed the body then used the select color tool in certain areas to get rid of some of the white outline and then the eraser with a softened edge in other areas. Then I used the blur tool to soften the outline where it seemed too harsh. Also tweaked the contrast and brightness a bit.
As I said.. wasn't anything special, just took some time.

After you dried out your phone and find out your hardware buttons are still not working you may have to download a third party to replace your hardware buttons. The app is not free and it is better to send back your phone to sony to fix your problems. Use either Button Savior or zSmooth from the android store.

oh anf FYI this is not part of the Xperia Play but is part of Verizon and tbh i couldn't give a crap about verizon due to not living in america. So how would i know there is a safemode? i really do feel sorry for your child if you start raging like that over the tiniest things
@OP
See, it's actually operator-dependent. So we don't give a dipload of **** if your operator excels at ****ing things up. VERIZON IS NOT THE ONLY FREAKIN' OPERATOR IN THE ENTIRE WORLD SO EXCUSE US IF WE DON'T KNOW!

[Q] Who's in charge of Forum's ZL Landing page?

Why don't we have a nice landing page like most phones do? Are we in charge of that or are site moderators the ones that do that?
I'd be happy to help fix that, it just looks sad without a picture of the phone and the specs!

Yeah it makes it look like this is a backend never heard of device. I don't like that. The ZL should have the same landing page spec sheet at the top as the Z does. Someone should PM those responsible for the ZL forums. I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem getting this sorted out.
EDIT: sent a PM to one of the ZL forum mods. Hopefully we'll get an answer soon.
maybe its meant for only flagship phones ?
