3.0D Corning® Gorilla® curved glass firstly used in vkworld discovery S1

The world is developing fast so well as the technology. With the rise in popularity of curved glass, this technology is gradually used in phone displays.

Since many brand released their flagship phone recently, now, it’s time for vkworld to release a high end flagship phone-vkworld discovery S1. It is assumed to be a flagship killer.Because it is the first phone in the world to adopt 3.0D Corning® Gorilla® curved glass in display. There are only 2.0D or 2.5D in market. But R&D team of vkworld firstly launched the 3.0D, using Corning® Gorilla®.
This had two advantages - when laying the phone screen-down, the bezels would be holding the phone up so that the screen wasn’t in contact with the surface and also the subtle curves improved the feeling during swiping, allowing you to feel when you were nearing the edge.
With this special glass,vkworld discovery S1 achieves to be the first 3D glasses-free phone in the world. In market, It’s excellent!
Let’s put high attention to this amazing phone!

Can't get old number out from a used phone

I've purchased a used tmobile g3. I'm running a custom rom / r rmx. I've tried to put my number in place of the previous owners' number. My number won't stick either in the phone or message apps.The phone was shipped with the stock rom and this is where I tried to change everything. Nothing I've done seems to work and I keep getting messages and calls from the owners number. How do I fix this??? :confused:

What NFC chip is used?

I checked the Whitepaper (mostly useless), the Sony developer website, googled the net, etc. but couldn't find the information.

I need to know what NFC chip is used in the Z3+. Based on what chip is used in older Sony phones (Z, Z2, etc.) it should be a chip from NXP and most likely it's a PN65N bundle (which combines a NFC chip with a secure element). The actual NFC chip could be PN544/C2 or PN544/C3 or a PN547.
