Impossible app! Is it true?

i've seen this video on italian blog...in the attachment there is the app but i can' t try it..i ve wm6....is it true??
http://www.wmfans.net/?p=40

It's not true. It's a video and the phone holder just has the timing down. There was another video like this with the X-ray and also had a coca-cola video that tipped like a glass as if you could drink from your phone

you must be kidding that you believed it for a second. it is just recorded. to do that, YOU NEED AN X-RAY MACHINE.

are you sure it is a video? there is an installer app

I didnt even both to watch the video.
But I can tell you that if you remove the IR filter from any webcam / camera you can see through some opaque or dark items. This includes a bottle of coca-cola, and even some clothes. (SONY had to recall a lot of cam corders because the night mode allowed you to see through white shirts in the day time, ie. girls shirts.)
There are a ton of tutorial videos online how to remove these filters. The last one I watched was on Hak.5

It is a definte FAKE. The guys' bone structure and adipose tissues does not match the Xray screen viewer. Definitely FAKE.

Maybe you don't include that camera isn't located in the center of screen. But I haven't tested it, I don't know is it real.

Capellone85, where the heck sei andato a pescarla, questa?

IT Fake
Its Fake Some People Actualy Fall IT its a swf flash file haha.

the timing on the movement is out and the bone structure as mentioned was way off
It is probably a video file being played.. i have seen another one pretty well done with a little girl.. almost had be thinking it could be real but then my common sense kicked in

I have one a bit like that on my PDA. Not quite as sophisticated but still impresses people for about half a second till they figure it out.
Got it from here: http://freewareppc.com/misc/xray.shtml
edit: just noticed that post #7 has the actual one from the video

here is a whole bunch of such apps

thx so much for answer

I have used this one a long before, its just a video that runs, & u have to adjust the movement like wise.

The drink ones work on some devices like the HTC diamond, iphone, n95 and many others due to the the built in Accelerometer.
The xray as stated above is a flash vid but looks good if you time it right.
had my daughter believing my touch was an uber fone for weeks with that xray

Look at the guys left hand. It looks like he has this mapped to the button his thumb is on. Right before it moves, it looks like there's more stress as if he's pushing the button

INCREDIBLE Raphael Camera Discovery

Hi Guys
I was testing out the camera on my Fuze last night in complete darkness in my room. So i put the flash on, and started snapping some pictures. What I started to notice was that there was this halo on the right side of the screen. I quickly figured out that this was from the LED light hitting the back casing and bouncing back into the camera lens! I removed the back of the Fuze, and snapped another picture. The differences are AMAZING! THe following pictures have the exact same settings and everything, one was just taken with the back on and with without the back on.
Check it out!
With Back On = http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a60/votum3/IMAG0022.jpg
Without Back On = http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a60/votum3/IMAG0020.jpg

I guess my pictures dont have this halo as stated here http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a60/votum3/IMAG0022.jpg
or at least not that strong
NExt problem is how to solve that without removing back casing? Maybe impossible ;(
Nice find! THanks

Thanks. The only thing that I was considering was some type of jacket that goes around the flash that plugs the space between the back casing and the flash. But I'm not exatly sure how I could do that...

You can modify your case by putting a dark piece of material in the case to separate the light form the camera lens.

Yea I was thinking maybe some of that black foam type stuff with the adhesive on the back thats often used on electronics would work great.

maybe it is a ORB..

ROFL

Yea after I took the picture my camera was actually taken by a spirit and thrown across the room. I tried to get it back but to no avail...

whats needed is to make the hole that little bit bigger

In my opinon HTC should leave the camera out from these business models, lower the price and make them smaller in size or something...

id rather they make them actually usable like some nokia or sony models myself. i love not having to carry around a separate camera as long as the phone camera is up to snuff.

A small square of felt between them ought to do the trick.....

dont have that problem

leaving out the camera is like limiting the device of what it can REALLY do. true, many business's state no camera phones on site, simple solution find another job.. j/k have two devices one w/wo camera..

Yesterday I had send a document to a coworker, and I used my Pro to take a picture.
Last month I had to e-mail a bank receipt while on the go, guess what I did?
So yes, the camera is important for business use, and I would never buy a phone without it.

exactly - so much easier than writing stuff down

I'm a service tech....and use the camera to snap pictures of goofy stuff I see
on machines, and sometimes mail them to the tech support center. I've always
been told a picture is like 1000 words...

last week I caught my spouse cheating on me finally and took pictures with my diamond pro... so yes, it is good for business, especially when you can give it to your attoryney for grounds of divorce..

ps. just kidding - having fun with this topic! hehhe

If anyone tries this, or any other fix successfully, will you please post pics of your "repair"?
Thanks!

This has been discovered on the Kaiser forum a while ago already. But now that you mention it, i check the back cover and surprisingly, I haven't noticed until now that there is no protecting glasses in the holes.

Is there a film on the buttons?

Hi. I really am confused now... There is a film coming off from the main buttons (below the screen) I didn't put it there but it really seems similar to the screen protective shield. My question - is it replaceable part or is the device getting broken? If yes, is it a specific material (to let the touch to the buttons)? The point is I have a place to get custom screenshields and I'd surely make one for the lower part also
Thanks in advance.

InvisibleShield is the way to go

Well worth the money man! I swear by this product. (Especially as I have a bad habit of throwing my phone in the same pocket as my keys.
EDIT: They make the screenshields, along with the lower part, back part and sides!

Woo man thanks BIG time. This is really worth the money. But as I mentioned I have friends who have the precise tools to produce the shield. It is called "rock/stone-proof" if you translate from estonian. Just wondering if it wont block the touch capability of buttons (they are touch responsive, not pressure responsive like the screen)

you can also get the ones from Bodyguardz which is just as good.

OK. Great replys.
And now the big question:
Was there supposed to be a film AT FIRST on the buttons? I never put it there. It seems a bit fatter than the notorious screenshield. But the surface below it is smooth and the homekey "house" also doesn't seem affected so i think it is separate part. I haven't dared to rip it entirely off yet. But I want to know if I can replace it because the open corner is really ugly for noe

youre talking about the laminate coming up on the navipad buttons. its a common problem and there are many threads about it. http://www.fuzemobility.com/keys-peeling/ if you have att they will replace you with a new "fixed" phone. if you dont then htc probably wont do anything for you. you can pull it up but you may have a problem getting the glue residue off.

Thank you big time. This was the best reply. Of course the situation is making me a bit nervous... Well I have decided to pull it off anyway and am going to replace it with the shield I mentioned before.
Thanks. End of thread I think.

SOLVED!
The custom shield is working. Made with Adobe Illustrator. Based on scanning. Just put the raph into a scanner and redraw the outlines. The output came from Roland plotter/printer/slicer/whatever it is. For free.

Buy only the glass and change it yourself?

How difficult is this? Is there a tutorial link. I have tremors and spasticity in hands from spinal disease but I may give it a try if double. Thanks for the response. Any other thoughts are welcomed and appreciated

does your screen cracked severely or small crack only? if small, you could go for glass screen protector only for $9 just to hold the glass stable with pressure spread evenly. if it hinder your usage i suggest replacing would be an option because note 8 is still a great device and i use it a lot in my study so for me repairing it would be a great investment. if you thought about changing it yourself, its not that hard but still need a stable hand but still very moderate for people with no experience. Just think about it, buying a new tablet is a waste unless you get tablet that is more powerful than note 8.
edit: Im sorry for your hand, i hope you get better soon
edit again: you might want to consider replacing it sooner, with a crack, unwanted things can get through the crack and can damage the internal if you're not careful

Can the Dex Station be used without taking the case off of your S8 Plus?

Thinking of getting the dex, but want to make sure that I dont have to remove the case every time I dock it.
Thank you

I just think taking it out of the cases every time you want to dock it would get really old really fast.

I have to take mine off even with a thin case. If I don't it doesn't connect.

damn, that's what I was afraid off. So many accessories have this issue. Its like people dont realize that the vast majority of fols like to protect their $800 phone. lol. Oh well.
Thanks for the reply man!

I remember my first mobile. It was a nokia in 1995. In this time the display was so small you did not think about a case or a screen protector. And i have to admit i miss this careless time. A mobile was still a object you could drop a hunderd times without risking to brick the mobile. Today we need this and that to protect our mobiles and still they shatter and go broke.

You are right! I remember when phones reached 4 inches and people were acting like that was so big that they would never ever carrying one that size. Now they are over 6 inches and non one says much about that. you definitely have to have a screen protector, a case, car charger, multiple wall chargers... the list goes on. It is crazy to see how far "phones" have come. Star Trek never even guessed we would have such miracle devices in our pockets. I love having pc, camera, video camera, gps, music player,personal secretarial assistant, alarm clock, wifi hot spot, video game player,flashlight, library with thousands of books in it,... the list goes on.
It is just the most amazing piece of technology, but it is fragile. I am glad that finally started making them water proof. Now to make the batteries last for days and make them truly shatter/ scratch proof. but it is also sweet to have a device like the dex station to turn you phone into an actual desktop pc. Just awesome. all it really is the same thing the Nintendo switch has with it's dock, but I"m glad they started innovating like this. It is a great time to be alive, that's for sure!
