I was thinking mothers aluminum wheel polish might do the trick... Thoughts?
Sent from my aluminum T.A.R.D.I.S!
Sounds cool and would no doubt look awesome. Personally I would be more concerned with how it may affect phone performance. Meaning, it could in fact decrease call quality etc., by further blocking radio signals. Also, the metal has been said to be taking on a heat synch type role to disperse heat etc.
I guess if the chemical used can disperse heat and not block radio signals then no problem....:laugh:

I agree with the rest if them... You suck for starting this thread! In all honesty I was previously thinking about the ball burnished laquered look oh this.. but sandpaper anywhere near this piece scares the hell out of me.
So I have discovered that the finish is anodized aluminum. Which for the most part can't be polished without taking off the anodizing.
If I find another camera I will post a pic.
So did anyone polish their HTC One? I searched for pics but couldn't find any.
Here is the real 24k gold one:

I can confirm this also works great with a 2 euro coin. Thanks!
I still think this will hurt resale value. Techies aren't the only people who buy used phones on eBay.
Still, good tip.
I was extremely affraid of doing this, using a 2 Euro coin worked very well although now there IS a tiny little scratch, almost not visible, I think this happened while holding the coin the wrong way. But the Verizon Logo is gone. I live in Germany, I don't care about Verizon Wireless ^^
Using a penny it came off, had to use a little more than gentle effort, but no scratches, just a tiny bit of residue leftover where it used to say Verizon

Edit: I'm not saying it's a bad idea, I'll probably just avoid it because I'm paranoid like that and when the time comes to sell it I want it to be in as good of condition as possible.

Hello,
So does anyone have purchased the Irenew bracelet?
It claims.giving strength /balance via some sort of new technology and just placed and order and im.starting to think it is fake but not sure if anyone have tried it leaving feedback would be great.
Thanks folks.

It's a scam, and work by placebo. I tried it, and it makes you think it works. The trick where you have your hands in the back, and someone pushes down, at first you don't know how the person will push down, so your body loses balance, but the second time you know what force to expect and your body counteracts it.

If you are interested in getting a really nice case for your Nexus 7 check this one out. I know there have been other reviews, but I figured I'd post up a video incase anyone was curious.

Different people with different tastes, that's why we use android.
I've been waiting for this to turn up for ages and I finally got my hands on the Otterbox Defender last night. It really does add some weight and bulk to the phone but of course offers the protection a lot of people are looking for. I personally like the look of the grey case but the wait for that is still about a month I believe.

I personally prefer the commuter, I will be reviewing it as soon as it arrives. I didn't expect to the defender till mid December so I can't say when I'll get my commuter unfortunately.
With a case like the Defender I would probably drop my phone on purpose just so I can feel good about walking around with a case that big.

Yeah some of the Youtube videos of drop tests are scary to watch the first time, proves the case does it job though I guess.

It's kinda weird. It has some kind of glue, which makes the skin able to be removed and added again. I don't know how to call it, but I liked it, since it's really easy to put or to take off. I recommend it if you liked it.
That looks so awesome, I'm jealous.

You'll be lucky if that lasts a week. Note even at the end of his video the corners of the back piece are already wrinkling back up. The side pieces are a complete waste of time; there is so little contact area they'll peel straight back off the first time you touch them.
The only bit that will stay in place is on the glass, which needs no protection anyway.
