(EDIT: seems picture embedding messed up so see attached thumbnails below)
To calm down from the asf mess on the z ultra, i decided to work on my concepts again as that always calms me down, please note a friend drowsy sam helped me with the photoshop editing he just did all the changes i asked for so these look less badly made, considering my last concepts got well some hate as people claimed i stole i thought i'd try again, this time the remaining bits of other concepts are removed
the only bit thats from another concept is the speaker lines and possibly the frame on one of my old concepts but i don't know who made this concept so whoever it is PLEASE tell me so i can give proper credit
anyway this new one is basically a camera phone without compromises the idea is a real retractable camera in a quite thin form factor basically a real camera phone with no compromises just being a little thicker

This also shows most of my sony ui ideas, like for example replacing the home button with a menu button, i see no point to have a home button at the home screen, then an awkward menu button floating above, so my idea is to have it change to the home button when you press it, either by a simple fade effect or an animation similar to the way the play button changes to a pause button in the walkman app, these buttons should also be transparent so that they are lightly visible but not in the way same with the notification icons.
Next i got rid of the dots indicating homescreens as i think they should only show when you switch screen, then they should fade away.
Next theres my xperia dream phone concept
https://scontent-b-ams.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/t1.0-9/10013539_10152248968156668_1099813813_n.jpg
Basically the same as the camera one just different back, some of the ideas i have for this phone is virtual bezels and an oled screen that pretty much fills up the front all the way to where the speaker is, the idea with virtual bezels is that you can control how much deadspace you want i am not entirely fammilier with oled screens but from my understanding the screen is off when it shows black meaning you can control how big it is, so for virtual bezels it could be that when in potrait you get very thin bezels, but when you flip the phone in landscape you get virtual bezels that looks and feels like actual bezels, so you can hold the phone properly you could also adjust the bezels in potrait if you want very thin bezels, just increase the screen size if you want bigger bezels decrease it, the idea is that it should look and feel like theres no screen where the bezels are, this would also mean that you can do what you want with those bezels,
for example having the notification icons floating at the top meaning it would look like they aren't even part of the screen, or perhaps add your own softkeys so it looks and feels like actual keys that aren't part of the screen.
This also shows my light stripe idea an idea i had since well beginning of 2013, the idea with this is that it can show really amazing light effects like moving a color up and down perfect for music, or mixing various colors so that it's blue at the top then slooowly changes to a different color at the bottom, you would not be able to tell where the color changes basically a special type of color at the top, but as you move closer down it slowly changes to various other colors untill it gets to a new color, when the light is off it would be invisible i like lights on phones but i don't want it to ruin the design, so the idea is to have a invisible light that only shows when it's on, this light would be able to do very advanced effects like having red at the top sloowly going to a different color basically it would be able to have any color light move across the entire stripe you would be able to get kitts scanner effect for example.
And lastly my xperia steel concepts, which also show my old idea of having a clock at the top untill i found out you could get the same effect from an oled screen unless i am incorrect, they never really were finished thats why the camera does not fit very well.
wow thankyou to whoever rated a 10
heres also a closer look at the light and virtual bezel as you can see the icons are in the bezel aswell as softkeys as they are actually screen
this also shows the light idea that i couldn't explain before it was called color gradient
really great designs!
i would love to have any of those handsets!

i do these in my spare time for fun just for the rewarding experience of seeing my dream phone i know that most of these designs can't be done but if sony wanted to i am sure they could have done something similar
i also just got the qx10 camera attachment it was refurbished on sale i ADORE the black metal the camera is in so i want that on the back of a phone
though removing the rings around the lens and you'll have your big lens camera without optical zoom which could work too
infact thats a good idea BIG lens to combine both my concepts into one in a normally sized package

this is the thinnest cybershot retractable camera i could find
so in theory a tad bit thicker than this would perhaps work not sure how practical that would be but a little thickness dosn't bother me as long as it's not too think or just ruins the design
http://www.neonpunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/WX170_Carton.jpg
though with sonys expertise i think they could make something like this quite thin

I do not need a Optical Zoom capabilities, by the end of the day IT SHOULD BE A PHONE with better camera and not camera with phone capabilities.
The top pic concept is great for me.I just was looking for Bigger=Better lens and sensor=Better Pics and Vids.

Hello all,
Just wanted to post up a warning about purchasing mirror/protective screen covers for your TP/Fuze/Diamond!
I purchased these:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=250365082878
the overall quality of them seems great, they have a protective covering on both sides for the application process (similar to "Screen Guards" brand covers).
but..... upon installation this is the result:

As you can see, it makes the phone almost unusable due to the rainbow effect... what is odd is it doesn't have that effect if I look at the phone from an extreme angle, so if I look at it with the phone laying flat and my eyes right near the hardware keys, it doesn't look rainbowy.... bleh
Just an FYI! has anyone had similar experiences?
Thx

That seems to just be the way those mirror finish screen protectors are. I bought a cut to size proporta echo one for my samsung p2 mp3 player and its like a truck full of carebears exploded on my screen. My buddy also got one for his sprint touch pro, same result.
I don't have a white background screen, it's entirely black. Everything on my phone is black-themed so I don't have the distortion of colors as much. That may solve the problem. Either that, or get another screen protector.
for years now I have been using the Brando Screen protectors.
I've used them on all my pdas, media players and cell phones. The quality and clarity are unbeatable if you ask me.
I just cleaned my old SE W850 which my son now uses. the screen protector has been on the phone for 2 years now and it is still sitting fine! (no corner lift). Sure, the protector is a little scratched after 2 years of service but the phone underneath is as good as new!

Greatest quote ever.
Hahah agreed on the carebears statement, pretty damn funny!
Anywho, I will say this much though, that seller who I bought these from on ebay has been really great as far as customer service is concerned. I emailed him letting him know about this issue and sent these pictures along. He couldn't believe that is what they looked like and was very angry at the factory for providing a product like this. He is sending me 3 clear and 3 anti-glare protectors to make up for this (which I think is very commendable). It would seem that the problem with these is related to the polarization used to cause the mirror effect and then let the light through when the light is on behind the cover.... what is odd is it clears up if I look down the phone holding it flat..... very intesting and annoying!
Just thought I would let everyone know!
I can't wait either.... I feel like I'm tripping on something every time I use my phone as it is now haha!!
Thanks

Not sure exactly what seems to be causing this. As I did have similar mirror screen protectors on my Kaiser and never experienced this.
Perhaps these are simply a bad batch / brand.
I am still running on the stock smooth screen protector (using the tape cleaning method) however, once that peels off I will begin my search for either a mirror, privacy or anti-glare. I haven't found one that I really liked of any so far.
Looks a little like a moiré pattern. See what happens if you put the screen protector on at a 90 degree angle (yes, it will be only partially protected, but this is just a test). If it is less notable, it appears the LCD elements on the screen are lining up with the way the screen protector is cut. Same thing will happen on a digital photo copier. The way the CCD "sees" line art can sometimes do that if the original is a "screen" print (very very small tiny dots as opposed to a solid image). You can "simulate" the effect by taking a good quality pair of sunglasses, and hold it over something like a digital wristwatch with LCD screen, and rotate the sunglasses clock-counter clockwise until the image on the watch disappears.
Not much you can do but get a different brand of screen protector.
Seems to be polarized by the way I see my mirror screen protector. Mine does it too. I have polarized sunglasses and when I turn the phone 90' it goes black (almost, but close enough) so that's why I think it might be polarized.
Also, they scratch to easy for me.
I bought one along with 3 regular screen protectors...honestly the only complaint I have is fingerprints are much more apparent. The rainbow effect is very rare for me...only at a certain angle with enough light...just my 2 cents...

****UPDATE*******
Been thinking about making them for people.
front £12.55
back £4.59
Paint £5
labour £5
designs £10
and if you wanted a design I will be using a qualified fine artist. She is painting two cases now so will post them when she is done.
The front case doesn't come with a digitizer so the area around that will look fine.
*****/update*****
I have owned the Hero since it came out on orange in the UK, but I hate the grey colour so I'm making it nicer.
I have 4 backs to the phone so all will be different designs. Also I will be using the black grill cover for call speaker, black volume/menu buttons from the T-mobile G2.
As I think black will suit the blue better.
All paints are car paints from Halfords.
I started on day one with sanding down the phone then applying a primer(base layer)

}
Day two
I applied the blue colour
Day three
Went really well sanded down and put the primer on the other backs.
Applied the lacquer, so will be able to rebuild phone tommorow.
The yellow back is halford glow in the dark paint. I do not recommend playing with this(yes it glows like mad) it is really thin. It took 6 layers just to get what you see in the photo.
Day four rebuilding the phone.
Phone rebuild only had one little hic-up. when I put the black grill on the in call speaker didn't put it right so was very quite. Corrected now.
phone is working fine no dust under the screen. looks well smooth.
things I would change.
I would take the digitizer out fully not just use low tack tape.
put all casing on match sticks to get a smoother look on the corners.
apart from that I'm well impressed with my first try at painting. ( didn't even do art in school)
Lots of photos including the glow in the dark case.
Any questions post here or tweet me T- iammodo
Nice work Could you show us a picture of how the finished paint job looks?
wow looks cool
man, crazy idea but if it works it'd be amazing
updated the photos for day three
wont your screen and lcd be filled with loads of smudges and dust when you fix it up all back?cos thats what happened when i did a glass and digitiser swap on a iphone 3g..seems like it works the same way on the hero..dirt and grime is a turn off on the iphone 3g once screen is replaced,so thats why now im on a hero.anyways..nice job!!

Low tack masking tape has been keep on the inside of the screen, and I will be using a cleaning cloth from htc for the screen.
So should be fine

Haha, do you think you only get constructive comments?
It's not only the colors that are ugly... I mean, that's taste really. You have none, but that's not the point here. It looks really bad... I mean, the part between screen and case. The Hero is such a beautiful device and this just looks cheap after the paint job.

See the part about the bit around the screen that's constructive well done.
This is why I said next time I will be taking the digitizer out fully.
I will be staining this area black on this case to make it look nicer.
Why would you say I have no taste that's just not very nice and the sort of thing that is bringing down internet forums. I love the colour blue as you can see it even matches my nail varnish.

Comments like this are a violation of site policy. If you don't like what he did, keep it to yourself. Be respectful of other members, very simple.
not much of a fan of the colour choice,i thought the white of the primer was canny , but good work on the painting! did you wet and dry sand it in between?
Love the colour! Arden blue is the best! The back looks really well done but the front not so much, but probably - as you said - due to working with the digitizer still in; pop it in the oven for 7 minutes @ 60C and it'll come out no problem.
And I was wondering, where did you get the black volume rocker from? I recently swapped my white case for a black unbranded one, but it didnt include the volume rocker and having a really hard time finding one.
Well done for first attempt tho, if you can get the front looking as good as the back then your onto a winner!
I get all my parts from work, not a shop or website sorry.
I will be buying a new front case from work to get a smoother look.
Also maybe this week i will be repainting this case to look better.
sorry i agree with him.Paint job isnt particularly great, you can see alot of wonky bits.Way to ruin a $500 phone imho Great job
Constructive criticism and ideas:
- I don't like the color choices. Most Hero owners would prefer more conservative colors like black, silver, white, gunmetal (dark grey). Try it in these.
- Paint job is very sloppy. I didn't read the entire post but if you're putting tape on it or whatever you're doing while you paint it, do a better job so it looks cleaner/neater.
the glow in the dark back cover is cool..looks rather ghastly..like slimy from ghostbusters...hahaha...that i would put on my hero when bored..but i wouldnt paint the whole phone though..anyways,good job..
Here is probably my final phone concept, as i don't think i want anything more changed this is badly done in paint but you get the idea, for example the brushed steel texture is very miss aligned etc oh and theres no camera, i would actually give something to have a 3d render of this to see it come to life.
I would call it the xperia steel black limited edition, it would be very expensive about 1200$ and not possible to get off contract to make it as exclusive as possible, what i want changed in this picture is a different frame in black a silver sony logo at the bottom of the back, the specs would be snapdragon 805 same screen as the z2 if not better 4.7 inch, thicker battery and a extremely thin back plate to fit a thicker battery, the sony logo would light up in different colors and would be invisible when turned off both speakers would have rgb lighting.

here is a silver version of the same concept i've shared earlier
many may not like it which is fine as this was made exactly after my own personal taste i think the back gives that signature sony feel but thats a personal opinion
i didn't exactly know where to post so i hope this is the right section
here is also a different back too it
and a more rounded one

author of one of the concepts i based my concepts off http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4363736
author of another concept i based my concepts off sanyaja kanishka
Lol i saw this at Sony support forum. Sorry but this is so out of proportions. And i dont like aluminium back.
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
I like the small face area (high screen/face ratio). And I like a brushed metal back over glass. Both are the two physical things I'd like to see, personally.
Personal opinion here...
1. I don't like the edges... Too sharp very2 prone to scuffs and dings considering it's aluminum.
2. Aluminum body is fine but back side design looked like unfinished.
3. Too small bezels. Not very thumb friendly anymore specially when reaching those menu buttons.
Suggestions on the concept phone
1. Make the edges curvy and not sharp. That would be alot more comfortable to hold. Would help remind me that I'm holding a phone not a thin slab
2. Make the back matte. It would give a premium look and feel minus the fingerprints.
3. Well I'm not one of the bezel freak guys so I don't want thinker bezels. Thinking that the touchscreen is multitouch it would be pretty hard touching the sides of the phone while operating it with your other hand. And still I also don't like thick bezels. I just want an average one.

At least give some credits my friend.
Sent from my C6603 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
stolen i am not getting anything from this and i clearly stated they are concepts out of other peoples concepts i didn't know it was so serious as i don't even know who they belong to as i found them on google pictures
i am simply doing this for fun all i did was take pictures and cut and paste them around and change size in paint as i stated several times in my threads about it
if you want credits then sure i'll give you credits i just didn't know it was such a serious thing considering they are so heavily edited that the original picture is barely there any more but i apologize for stealing credit i just didn't know it was such a serious thing
these are the original source pictures i used
edit i had the xperia steel worked on a little again this time i had my friend drowsy sam help with photoshop work i DO NOT own the small speakers at the front they are taken from another concept
this time the idea is to have a tiny oled screen or negative watch screen at the top that can show everything from the sony logo to watch time to notifications
edit an even more polished version
and with brushed steel back
Considering i am reaching the end and completion of my dream phone i thought i'd share it here, I am not sure if I shared this particular one before but it's the concept I was most happy about.

Demonstrating the experimental light stripe idea and slightly rounder corners
It would have a 4.7 inch 1080p jdi oled panel with white magic and feature my virtual bezel idea where it adds dead space top the screen in landscape to be able to hold it easier the sony logo would be part of the screen, it would also inbuilt fingerprint reader in the panel, a snapdragon 805 processor and 4 gb of ram, battery would be 3500 mah.
It would come with either 32 or 64 gb inbuilt storage and a micro SD slot aswell as an ir blaster, it would also have dual sim or a dual sim version.
Another unsure idea for it is my light stripe idea around the entire phone
Build would be a black zero gap uni body, same metal as the frame of the z ultra, it would wrap around the entire phone the frame would be the body, making only the front accessible to the inside.
What's left now for my dream phone is the unrealistic ideas, like a metal plate placed ontop of a oled screen that would have invisible microscopic holes for the screen to shine through resulting in the picture showing on metal instead of glass, Similar to the flip cases with holes on just much much smaller and invisible holes, the idea of well hope, is that the screen can show properly through the metal with no signs of any pattern or hole it should also be able to fill the entire screen space with a solid color without anything in the way black should also show as a solid black color without anything in the way.
The ui itself would be floating icons on metal no wallpaper no underlay just buttons and icons just appearing on metal similar to samsung ultra power saving mode but instead of black glass it's pure metal, it would eliminate the smudge and fingerprint problems once and for all.
So far it's just a fantasy idea i also thought of transparent metal if it can retain it's original metal look when the screen isn't shining through
It would basically be a solid steel metal phone metal on both sides.
Another idea is an inbuilt flip cover with visible holes with a ui you can use through, only need for the full screen would be for media, if you don't mind using the ui with holes.
Well that's all for now I think as far as realism goes my dream phone is finnished please note the lines for the frontfacing speakers may come from a different concept, i don't remember which though.
Thumbs up for the effort but 1 out of 10 for the result. All I can say, that design just doesn't justify the premium feel on sony flagship or its beauty. Tbh, I hate thick bezel but I certainly like a thin bezel compared to bezel-less device.
Specs wise, max ram for 32-bit is 3gb. Snapdragon 805 falls under 32-bit thus it is most likely to be 3gb ram. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Yeah this concept is not very realistic and certainly not for everyone, but it was made with my taste in mind.
The slightly curved version was made as people told me to make the corners rounder.
But yeah this is my dream phone what i would change is the front metal idea.
I don't really like it, bezels are too thin for me lol (I like Z2 design it's good, not too much bezel in my opinion)
Anyway I'd rather see S810 then 805, also 4GB won't be necessary. What I'd rather have is RAW support for camera to have uncompressed pics from 21MP or maybe better camera. I'm 99% sure the current cam takes magnificent pics for a phone if we could see the RAW pics. Let's hope Google implements full RAW support soon

Bezels are too thin, it makes it look kinda ugly, besides your fingers would accidentally be pressing the screen all the time, in my opinion the bezels on the Xperia zl are perfect

+1. I would love to have that RAW file format support for the camera.

The bezels are the gab between screen and frame?! Right? What you mean is something different.

That would be insanely uncomfortable and unwieldily. Some bezel on a phone actually helps in ergonomics and edge to edge screen handing.
they need to add infrared port on the phone asap. i cant understand why they skip it every new model.
Like I said in the post it would have something I call virtual bezel, you could control it at will ultra thin in portrait thicker in landscape the beauty with oled is that when it shows black it's off so you would basically add dead space too the screen, and it would look like it's not part of the screen.

But I agree the bottom one is ugly it's the top one I like as you can see it has a thicker Bezel though it really doesn't as you can see the Sony logo is glowing because it's part of the screen, Bezel has no meaning if it's virtual you could have it as thin or thick you want it would act and look like there's no screen where it's black, or at least that's the idea, the idea is that you can't tell where the screen ends, it would look identical too an actual Bezel.
So when you watch a movie where you don't have to hold the phone, you can take advantage of the entire screen space.
It's all up to you how much bezel you want and when you want it.
This is a slightly altered version of my dream phone concept

I expected better designs like in the mockups
I really hope the video is a hoax

I guess that HTC went with the "if something isn't broken don't fix it" moto, cuz the only major improvement is the camera.
Another leaked video from Upleaks:

I think it's a fake... Look at the M9 when the guy is taking the photo to the girl: the phone has got a thick black stripe under the screen, while the one over the screen is very thin. Now watch the rest of the video: the upper strip is bigger, while the other is thinner... Oh cm on! And sorry for my bad english
Also these advertisements are really bad made... I'm not really sure they are true!
Really hope this isn't the m9. The black bar is just awful.
ho my god
it s an M8 again :crying::crying::crying:
I really dont get why all negativity, the M8's design is great and better than the competition in every part of the build. So why would HTC Change what yes ain't broken, the Camera is meh on the M8, so its now been improved, the performance if the M8 is anything to go by will be fantastic. There will be other things I'm sure that will change that mindset.
I honestly wasn't expecting huge changes in design and that's cool with me. I would safely assume the M10 or whatever the 2016 model may be will have that change.
I'm sure you'll all be happy when you purchase
I'm a bit disappointed in HTC, banging on the internet doors that they are bringing new things to MWC, just to show us a refresh/fix of the M8 (Yeah I know they will bring more stuff).
They better be calling it the HTC one 8.5 or something, because this isn't a number change worth.
I still think the M7 is a better looking phone then the M8, just because of the radius on the corners, and because the bottom and top speaker have the same width.
what a disappointment
Its not that bad lol I didn't mind how the m8 design was.

I'm not convinced this is the final version of the m9. With the leaks in the past few years, it's possible HTC is creating their own leaks to generate buzz. Regardless, I still love my m8 and am getting the m9 when my tax money arrives.?
I agree. I'm not sure it is real. Look at the poor editing, the screen images are not correctly aligned with the phones edges. Not the professional video I'd expect from HTC.

Is the power button squashed or something?

the only think us htc m9 fans can hang onto is the spigen case picture. If you look at their pictures with the cases there is no black bar the the bezels are pretty small the front facing speakers are redisigned and thats all I need.

Sorry to burst your bubble guys but shown is known to do this, they are restricted and prohibited to release or leak the actual images of the up and coming mobile phones, it would defeat the purpose if unveiling it at the MWC.
Look what they did with last year's Galaxy s5
They thru everyone off on purpose to think Samsung had finally ditched the home button....
But no..
Right after the unveiling they quickly replaced the image with the accurate one. After all, all they really need are he sizes and the shape of the device, the font doesn't matter, it could look like mickey mouse and all they talk need to do is show off the case... the front has nothing to do with the case, the front camera or speakers have nothing to do with the case.... Nothing...

Hmm.... they didn't put attention to detail in this one. Check out the differences..
Well, what might actually be the case here is the picture on the left (the camera app) is actually taking the photo, the picture on the right is viewing the photo in the gallery app so the space on the top which would be the supposed bezel would simply be extra space as the picture isn't full screen.
Take that with a grain of salt, because that whole commercial doesn't really feel that 'professionally done'. It could just be graininess but when watching the screen you can almost tell that some cgi work was done on it.
Based on the this link from amazon the black bar with the HTC logo is gone
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Spigen®-MET...TF8&qid=1424885797&sr=8-2&keywords=htc+one+m9
if it is true, is a good step forward!
LOL i don't think thats the phone, and well spotted with the difference, the smile and no smile on the phone screen, fail
Get real guys that's the M9,not saying there won't be a ultra version also but that's the M9

We're talking about the photo being different. The photo they zoom in on has obviously been retouched and was not taken with the M9 straight out of the camera.
