IPhone 5, beats S3 in drop test

Dont think I'll be running a case on my iPhone 5. The i5 survived a very realistic drop test with minimal damage, while the Galaxy s 3 shattered.

The funny thing this is from a fandroid site, you can almost feel the pain and disbelief in the guy in the videos face.

No, that should not happen. If all you did was a backup, or even a sync, the photos are not indexed as being imported. Many times I will decide not to import pictures on the phone if there are only a couple and I want them for some other reason. I will just close out the import utility and then sync the phone. I sync my phone daily, and if those pictures are still on the phone, then it will still start the import utility again the next time I connect the phone.
However, as a after thought, why not just try a screen shot, the content doesn't matter, then connect the phone and see if that will get it recognized.

  • HT1349 iphone 4S - my wifi keeps dropping or it comes up with a message "unable to connect"

    iphone 4S - my wifi keeps dropping or it comes up with a message "unable to connect"

    1. Did this just start randomly, or have you ever been able to connect to this network?
    2. Does this phone connect to other wifi networks?
    3. What is the strenght of the wifi connection when you are close to the router (1-3 bars)?
    Try to isolate and see if this is just an issue with just this network. If so, and you have access to the settings on the router, I would test out with no security or a different chanel. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199 gives all of the recomended settings for wifi networks so that the phone should work optimally with that network
    If you are having this same issue with all wifi networks and have gone through a full restore of the phone to new, then you likely have a hardware issue with your phone and may need to look at repair/replacement to resolve this.

    Hmm.. Thank you for the response.
    Have you tried using the iPod with another user account or computer, to help narrow down whether the problem lies with the computer, account, or the iPod itself?
    Maybe try reformatting it, using the tools provided by Windows. Instructions on how to reformat your iPod can be found in this article.

  • Does the Wish List for iPhone/iPad/iPod show price drops?

    Does the Wish List for iPhone/iPad/iPod show price drops? I assume it would show the new price in the Wish List but does it inform you if the price drops?

    The apps which show on the file sharing section on your iPad when connected to your computer's iTunes, you have exactly the same apps installed on your iPhone - they are not separate iPad and iPhone apps that you have installed on your iPad/iPhone, and only the iPad version supports file sharing ?
    For iBooks, that won't show, it doesn't support file sharing. You can add ibooks / epubs / PDFs to your computer's iTunes library (the iBooks app if you are using a Mac with OS X Mavericks on it) via File > Add To Library, and you sync them to a device via its Books tab :
    If you want to copy them off the device to your computer's iTunes (to the iBooks app on Mavericks) then File > Devices > Transfer Purchases will copy them over (that will copy PDFs and epubs from the iBooks app on your device, not just ibooks).

  • How frame drop test is executed using PQA in TestStand ?

    Can someone shed some light on the frame drop test which is executed using PQA in TestStand ? Also, what is the use of reference stream and trigger in the frame drop test ?
    According to the manual, the Dropped Frame processor computes the difference in pixels between consecutive frames. So, in this scenario, how does the processor compare the framedrop of the test stream with reference stream (if any).
    Thanks

    Hello Enigma123
    The Dropped Frames processor returns a metric that is the average of the absolute difference between each pixel in a frame compared to its following frame.  Depending on scene transitions or a known video playback performance, you can use this processor to determine if you are missing frames.  For example, imagine two 3x3 images
    2 2 2           1 1 1
    2 2 2     &    1 1 1
    2 2 2           1 1 1
    The average difference between these frames is 1.  A media reference stream is not used with this processor when it runs.  However, and I always recommend doing this for unreferenced tests, a data reference can be created from a reference stream to compare with future tests results. The data reference is a calcuated set of metrics that corresponds with a given PQA acquisition/processes or a set thereof.
    Here is the process I would take for unreferenced tests.
    Take a reference video that you know plays back properly.
    Set that you wish to create a data reference, acquire that video/audio stream and perform and activate the desired processors.
    Now, select that you would like to use that data reference for future acquisitions.
    Perform new acquisitions using the same processors and observe the new results stream
    You will see your results stream now centred at zero according to the following calculation  (Test Results - Reference Results) / Reference Results  [Relative Difference]
    If you see any major deviations, this is a probably cause for a concern, in our case, for dropped frames

    When I watch YouTube videos on my iPhone 5 it sometimes suddenly drops in quality so much the whole video goes blurry and it's almost impossible to watch anything?? Help also I think it might have to do with my wifi but I'm not sure. Sometimes I also try to skip to sections of a vid and it just lags for ages and nothing happens.

  • Match/Drag & Drop Test questions

    Just did my first Captivate thing... cool!
    Noticed when using the Match Test with Drag & Drop...
    1 - A little box shows up on the left that caused some
    confusion... When you drag & drop it will populate itself with
    the 'letter' of the choice the user made... BUT... the user can
    also type the letter into the little box.
    In our case the answers in the right hand column were numbers
    like 6, 3, 9, 2, etc
    So the user typed in the answer (like the number 6)... and
    even though that was correct Captivate saw it as incorrect as it
    was looking for the 'letter' of the answer in the right hand
    column.
    THE QUESTION: Can we hide that little box that appears by
    each item in the left column of the Match Drag & Drop test?
    2 - Captivate seems to shuffle the left column... any way to
    make it shuffle the right column?
    3 - Instead of entering text in the left column (or
    alternately the right column) we want to show a graphic by each
    choice... but when the user trys to drag and drop the graphic
    Captivate doesn't see it... How have you guys handled using
    graphics for one column or the other in the match drag & drop
    test ?
    4 - We added a text caption box to the Match test creen but
    with only one line of 10 point type. Captivate wouldn't let us
    adjust the height of the text frame to slightly larger than the
    height of the text... even though we told it OK to adjust height
    w/o adjusting width in the properties. Captivate seems to want to
    maintain the height of the text caption frame to about 1/2 inch on
    my screen... even if we use very small type. Any way to fix this as
    we are running out of real estate on a few screens.
    Sorry for all the questions but thanks for any kind
    assistance.

    Hi Will_3
    You might have better luck configuring your Matching to use
    Drop-Downs for your user to select the match. To do this, edit the
    question and in the lower left corner of the dialog, click the
    drop-down and choose "Drop Down List". I'm thinking this could
    avoid some of the confusion.
    As for the images, you have already stated the answer. The
    images may be present, but cannot be dragged to establish the
    match. The shuffling is occurring because "Shuffle Answers" is
    selected when you click Quiz > Quiz Preferences... > Quiz
    node > Settings node.
    As for the Text Caption, as you have seen, there is a minimum
    height these can have. If you are using the Transparent caption
    type, most of it will be invisible anyway, so it shouldn't matter.
    After you get the caption positioned on the slide, you may lock it
    by clicking the dot in the lock column of the Timeline. If you are
    after a certain look for them, you may choose to create your own
    Caption type at the size you need.
    No need to apologize for asking questions. That's what the
    forum is for!
    Hopefully something I've offered here is helpful... Rick

  • Blackberry Passport drop test

    As you know there is a few videos of Blackberry Passport extrreme drop tests on youtube. Where the phone didn't get any damage. 
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDK-RBcnmqU
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYraDeOSt1s
    So the question is: is it OK to drop the Blackberry Passport face down to show it's durrability  to your friends, and the phone always be just fine?
    Or this drop test videos is just a good luck and not a mandatory future of the phone?
    Is the any experience, tests or suggestions?
    I'm kinda scary to try it...

    Thank you! So I can see that 4ft face drop is pretty safe. If I'll find few more cases then will experiment with mine.
    Obiviously the more hight, the more probability of damage. But it would be intersting to know what maximum hight is safe for 99% of Blackberry Passports to drop face down. 
    P.S. As I found on other forums, some have damaged the glass when droped on the corner, not on the face...
    Corner drops of many phones will break the screen.
    I would not consider any drop safe as it could bounce and land on a corner after.
    But this does have Gorilla Glass and is tougher than regular glass.
    You will void warranty if you drop it.

  • Itunes will not sync music to my ipod touch or iphone 3g. Passes all diagonostic tests. copies apps but not music

    itunes will not sync music to my ipod touch or iphone 3g. Passes all diagonostic tests. copies apps but not music. Any Ideas?

    just bought iphone 4 today from verizon and had the same problem. this is my 1st smartphone ever. apps all synced when i plugged it in to my computer except the music. this is what i did and it worked. plugged in phone to computer. then under the devices tab i clicked on the music tab. if you look to the bottom right of the itunes page there will be two tabs you can click on. one says settings and the other one says autofill. i clicked on the autofill and then it just started syncing. that was it. i'm not a tech guy by any means. just kinda of got lucky. i hope this helps you out. good luck!

  • IPhone 4 Bumper Drop Test

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Li7YhEVYsw
    Any thoughts? I'm a bit skeptical now on getting one...

    I'm normally cynical and suspicious of everyone. It's entirely possible that the guys did some shady things off-camera, but keep in mind that their business is repairing damaged phones. If they were selling cases or phone insurance, then I could see them wanting to exaggerate the damage trying to get people to buy their product out of fear.
    Scaring people away from the iPhone 4 would actually hurt their business, though. The more people buy the iPhone 4 and break it, the more money they make. They'd be better of making people think it's indestructable.
