are you able to lay the phone on its back without the camera touching the table with the case on?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
---Yes ;-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Evo 4G63:
awesome! where did you buy the case?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] dkny429:
wow very nice piece...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Final5k:
Great pics, thank you! Can you tell us by the feel, if the aluminium case feels solid in the hands and will it absorb shock if ever the phone fell on the ground? Is the phone tight inside the case or is it loose?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] daddymatt:
I ordered the exact same combo last week!!! I can't wait!!!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Namuh:
Its not that he wont do it, its that he cant. I believe that the bumpers and the new battery back cover cant be used at the same time. They dont fit together. Which sucks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] aussiebum:
The SZLF bumpers fit together fine with the new aluminium battery covers. See my post -> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20974965&postcount=61

That's a different bumper than the one here....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Bigmille:
Thanks for the pics, I brought the same gray case but from oboStore. You pics make me wish I should ordered the black colour instead to blend in with my black Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ladican:
Where did you buy it? I think it's from Korea..but I'm not able to find this bumper..

Thanks for being the Joshua here, I still think it looks pretty good. Is it still able to fit in your pocket?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] senectus:
Crap, I hope that's not the case with the Anymode bumper... I ordered on a few days ago.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Final5k:
avetny - can you tell us if there is a risk that the aluminium bumper case might scratch the phone when you put it in and remove it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
hi Final5k!

I never scratch my phone inside of any bumper case's

from 100%, 95% is will be safe
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] E_man5112:
Any chance you can reupload pictures? Image Shack is trying to force you to buy pro, so they don't show anymore.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
Yes guys, I saw it.....I will fix it
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] emo99:
Hi Avetis.

Can you give direct link to item on ebay?

I tried to look for it but there were few results in search and they all are SZLF bumper not Sweet armor.

I believe many buyers set status to "away" because of Chinese New year. And their items are not visible in search.

I can find items in ebay by searching in google "1/4 COLOR PREMIUM ALUMINIUM METAL BUMPER CASE COVER FR SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE i9220"

(not able to post direct link)

Box says "Sweet armor".

But I am not sure that is genuine product. It look likes different.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] predator21:
i ct find it on ebay can u plz send me the link
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] daddymatt:
I just got mine and its nearly impossible to push the buttons... you have to use your fingernail.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
Very interesting the Seller changed the price.

And he made a very big price for this ****ty bumper case I got.

Link

I also found much much better BUMPER CASE THAN we can find !

Link

I order it. I will do quick review.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] emo99:
Thanks Avetis for your link.

I have seen that but didn't think that this is your bumper.

The second link seems to be bumper for S II, not for Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
Oh you know my friend I confirm its made for galaxy note ;-)

Give me 1 week I order it...I will tell you how is it ;-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] emo99:
Ok. We'll wait.

But in my opinion the "new" bumper is more bulky. And I cannot see padding inside. What is bad in reviewed bumper (except color) which you dodn't like?

From your review I understood that you are satisfied with it.

Or is color factor so important?

P.S. Are you armenian?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
First is 2 sharp in my hand.....after 5 days I hate this case.... , color not good for me, form is not sexy.....

P.S. Yes ;-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] mikempower:
did you noticed less signal strength using this combination of metal cover?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] emo99:
Ok.

Hope soon you can find your desired bumper and stop waste your money.

Personally I begin to think that metal bumper is useless thing.

I believe case like "PDAIR Black Luxury Silicone Case for Samsung Galaxy Note" (search at ebay) gives more protection to phone.

p.s. I am also. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] zlagger:
I got the aluminum back cover and noticed a very noticeable drop in signal. The cover looked great, but is now at the land fill.

Do Not Buy!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] senectus:
I have the aluminium back cover... I haven't noticed much of a reception drop... but then I work in the CBD of the states capital city and live only 14kms from the city... so I'm smothered in RF ;-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] pachi72:
Won't these aluminum cases mess with GPS?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
no I didn't find any problem
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] daddymatt:
Your imagination.... if that's correct.. every HTC phone would have horriple reception. I just received mine and actually TESTED it... no signal loss. Please don't make up garbage.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] zlagger:
Ok let me restate it this way then... When I use the aluminum back cover on MY note there is a noticeable drop in signal. I live in an area with moderate signal strength on ATT's network in California. Without the back cover, my phone shows 3 bars of service at my home. With the cover I get 1. My data connection becomes very laggy and spotty.

So for ME, there is a signal loss, and I won't be using the phone cover. I am not making up garbage, and I did test this.

Your comment about HTC is irrelevant. A phone designed to be in an aluminum encasement will obviously work correctly, as it was designed that way. The Note was not. ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] emo99:
I have read many complaints connecting with signal issue (for SGN). Specially influence of metal back to GPS locking. From many people in different forums.

That definitely cannot be only someone's "imagination".
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] PVTD:
Hello there,

Been ebay'ing all morning for something similar without having to pay 100$ for some metal pieces.

I found item: 250967144232

(In ebay, copy that number in the search box)(I cannot paste links yet)

There around 33$, free shipping around the globe.

The reviews seem fair, 10 pieces are already sold, I will risk the bisquit for this one.

Will review on arrival :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] rohi:
awesome... where i can i get these case in india?

and whast the price??

im going to buy galaxy note in a week.. at that time i will buy this case..

any indians got this case plzz help me ...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
ahper don't worry ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Final5k:
Avetny, did you receive the case? What are your thoughts about it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] daddymatt:
This is a screen shot of MY phone in MY basement where I get spotty service. My wifi is two floors away and multiple rooms away. I have the grey/silver metal back door on my note. Notice the bars... on my phone it works fine with 0 signal loss... actually, a little improved (go figure). The funny thing is, its not like this is a solid sheet of lead or something... its a plastic battery door with a piece of metal no thicker than your average heavy duty aluminum foil glued on the back. People, if you want to see if metal cover will hurt your reception (antennas work 360° not just out your back cover, I can't believe were actually having this discussion) tape a 4x5 strip of aluminum on the back of your note for 10 min... this kind of theroy would mean if we used our phone INSIDE OF A HOUSE, IN OUR CAR, OR IN A METAL BUILDING, we would get zero reception... its just silly.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] daddymatt:
I can't honestly comment on that... I haven't done any real testing on the GPS. Now, that being said, sitting in my basement (again) I just got a lock on my GPS in under 10 seconds though... not sure how horrid that is... another thing everyone here has to take into consideration is what rom is being used... if it has GPS or signal issues anyway... things like that. IV had my battery cover on for two weeks and have used the GPS 3/4 times... haven't had an issue... ill see what kind of testing I can come up with...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
Chinese new year! lol my case is going to late :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Final5k:
keep us updated on it. I'm interested to see how the Note fits in. Metal cases usually have some sort of rubber around the inner parts to prevent the phone housing to get scratches when you fit it, but this particular case does not have. I'm curious to get your opinion about this especially since you have Aluminium bumper case which has the rubber thing inside.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] avetny:
Sure! Just let me get him ;-)

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dannysmith43:
So it appears that there is now a possibility to put custom ROMS on the Nook tablet, great news!

I've been following the progress eagerly and the devs have done a superb job in such a short time, hats off!

I was wondering what can be achieved using this UBOOT method. Should I be expecting a Honeycomb ROM or perhaps even ICS? Or is the best that can be achieved a clean Gingerbread one? I've read about kexec and 2ndinit and they appear to be restricted to GB only.

Once again, great job.

Danny
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Pete1612:
read the posts in the other threads. This question was asked serveral times.

honeycomb probably not, ICS only with a custom kernel (currently, to load a custom kernel on your nook, you have to open the device). Gingerbread maybe, the developers are not quite sure yet. But first be have to get a fully working clockworkmod !!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] AugustusBot:
Pretty sure this is wrong.

Theres a hole when using an update image from the sdcard to allow you to insert a second uboot into the chain, which then can call an unsigned kernel. (or something close to this)

When CM9 is officially released, the Tablet will get it on day 1.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Pete1612:
you are right but currently, there is only the method to open your nook availeble, the other method is currently in the developing state.

Maybe the Nook will get CM9 on the first (what I personally don't think). Even if, it'll take probably around a month to get it fully functional working. Just look at the Kindle Fire development, they still don't have everything working.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] downsay:
This.
[General Questions and Answers] convolution:
Okay. Let's say hypothetically speaking, a friend's rooted phone had the LCD density in the build.prop changed from 240 to 10, then had all the CMW backups deleted, and then rebooted the phone.

How screwed would they be?
[General Questions and Answers] kylew1212:
Just task 29 then reflash
[General Questions and Answers] convolution:
What is task 29?
[General Questions and Answers] getsaf:
You can always manually download a new ROM (cyanogenMod recommended) zip file to your SD.. Boot to fastboot (power down, press+Hold trackball+power).. Go to recovery mode and install the ROM's zip file from there. (Install Zip from SD Card option)

Granted, you won't get your original data back. But you'll get a usable phone again.
[General Questions and Answers] kylew1212:
I read the wrong forum by accident. I'm very sorry. On my phone forum that would solve the problem. Task 29 deletes all data from phone, bootloader, data, and system. From that point (if you had an hd2) just reinstall. And then you're good to go.
[General Questions and Answers] convolution:
So if one were to uninstall the CMW first and THEN do that...

THEN they are hooped?

Hey doods, I was searching for some normal looking Keyboard on Android,

and I don't know if it's just me, but all the Keyboards in the Store look like kid's toys from the 90's,

so I made my own Skin for the Swype Beta 3.26.92.37604 and want to share it with you:

( It's inspired by the Design of Samsung and iOS )

Changelog:

Version 2.0

-Fixed the Classic Version

-Optimized it, also

Version 2.0

-Based off New Swype 3.26, 15.01.2012

- CORRECTED THE 9PATCH! Now the image is alot cleaner and crispier

-Zipaligned and Compressed

-Signed with APK Manager

-Made 2 new Themes,

--Improved "Classic" xwype Version and

--xwype Neo with superdupersexy function buttons ;P

-Currently only Working on 800x480 Devices (others won't display themed)

enjoy :)

!!! Attention !!! The Classic now actually looks like on the pictures :)

Instructions:

1. Download the Skin that you want, and extract your Swype.apk from ./System/app or ./data/app

2. Open the Swype.apk with Winrar or 7zip, and overwrite the folders with the one in my archives.

3. On your Smartphone, go to the market and download Zip Signer 2.

4. If you have a previous installation of Swype, delete it or back it up.

5. Sign the App with Zip Signer 2, and then install it :)

6. Go to Settings -> Keyboard -> Enable Swype

xwype - Swype themes by xiq

If you find any Errors or 9patch missdraws, please tell me.

It took me much effort to make this skins, and if you like what I did, please click the Thank You button, leave a comment, or buy me a beer, they cost around 60-80 cent here, haha :D
[Android Themes] mikep1993:
Which language and region and version is this?
[Android Themes] rroby79:
Nice and clear....
[Android Themes] xiqxiq:
Hey Mikep, you can download any Language from the settings menu.

The Version is "Swype Beta 3.26.92.37604", but I can insert the graphics into possibly any newer version :)
[Android Themes] mikep1993:
Thank you for the answer.

Will I have to readd the dictionary?

[Android Themes] wigwag:
not working for me :(
[Android Themes] Curiousn00b:
Mine doesn't look like samsung themed. It looks plain. :confused:
[Android Themes] mikep1993:
Here it is working.

Don't forget to uninstall the old Swype app first.

If you don't do this you will get a not installed error because if different certificates...
[Android Themes] lordcloud1:
Mine worked without uninstalling the old Swype. It just doesn't look clear. At all.

[Android Themes] xiqxiq:
lordcloud1, what do you mean exactly?

Don't you see the skin, or is my skin blurry for you?

I can allways make it better, just tell me :)

Now that I look at the picture you posted, it actually looks like it's supposed to. My mistake. :)

[Android Themes] anshmiester78900:
Im using Galaxy S2 and its on stock rom with Swype preinstalled and im unable to uninstall the swype install this app
[Android Themes] Gnaver:
To install Swype on preloaded device, you need to download unlockroot program at unlockroot.com and check if device is supported, then root it and instal root uninstaller and uninstall Swype...then you can use this :-)

Slide(it)d from my crappy galaxy mini
[Android Themes] Gnaver:
To OP: can you theme version 3.26.92.35548? Its version before the one that allows Swype connect with their servers. I use this because in new beta they screwed dictionaries for lot of languages (Czech too)...

Just let me know if you can do it and I send you the ripped Swype ;-)

Slide(it)d from my crappy galaxy mini
[Android Themes] the_scotsman:
@OP - I've removed the apk as Swype is not allowed to be distributed as an apk. But as you said, feel free to upload the drawable folder, that's fine :)
[Android Themes] xiqxiq:
Thanks for not deleting it, the_scotsman :)

I fullfilled my part of the deal and uploaded the drawable folders ^__^

Hey Gnaver, you can now just change the graphics, i uploaded them on the first site :)
[Android Themes] TealLeader:
I just tried to set up the "Classic" skin but it doesn't look like the picture you posted. The letter keys and shift key look the same as the "Neo" skin. Was there a mistake or am I missing something here? I tried both of your files and they only differed in the keys not listed earlier (ie. backspace, smiley/return, dragon dictation, etc.).
[Android Themes] xiqxiq:
Oh this is a mistake, those many files make my head explode lol.

I'm gonna fix it tomorrow, it's sleepy time now ;)
[Android Themes] TealLeader:
Any news on that fix?
[Android Themes] xiqxiq:
right, forgot about that, lol.

well here it is, optimized, reworked, zipaligned, signed and what-not:

Can you resize and provide qvga images ? I really love your skins but i have crappy phone :-)

Nice keyboard ^^ looks cool, think ill install it :D
[Android Themes] xiqxiq:
Il l look into that :)
[Android Themes] jshinn1:
I deleted the old swype installer and the swype.apk and Ive tried to install this it says it installed correctly but it doesnt show up in my list of keyboards
[Android Themes] xiqxiq:
you have to go to settings again, and then keyboards and make a check on swype
[Android Themes] Gnaver:
Any news about ldpi resized images? I will be very grateful for it :-)

Swyped from my crappy Galaxy Mini
[Android Themes] jshinn1:
Yea I did that and it wasnt on the list of keyboards to activate but now I think I got it but I have an Atrix 2 and I believe that the images for this keyboard are the wrong size I just read what size this keyboard is for
[Android Themes] surferboi636:
i cannot get to install correctly, followed all the steps and signed using zip signer, the file will always force close when i try to go into settings
[Android Themes] xiqxiq:
Maybe it is not compatible with your phone since it's a beta build of swype.
[Android Themes] MySs.NTD:
nice keyboard, thanks so much
[Android Themes] surferboi636:
The beta does work on my phone as i can install it from Swype installer its only after i try modifying it that it starts acting up
[Android Themes] jshinn1:
This is exactly my problem the beta works but this doesnt but could it be that I need resized images

Mine is 960x540

The other question i have is that I have the .apk "com.swype.android.inputmethod-1.apk" is this the file Im supposed to modify because this is the only swype apk I have seen in my folders through root browser
[Android Themes] xiqxiq:
If you have troubles with the files, you can allways get the apk from my blog...

But it wouldn't work with your resolution anyways @.@
[Android Themes] jshinn1:
Ok thanks hoping for my resolution to get this i really love how slick this keyboard looks

I'm trying to find out how lots are getting great battery life on roms and kernels that I get terrible or ok battery life. ex. Simply Honey with talon gave me the best bettery life out of any rom or kernel, but unfortunately that rom was not stable on my phone.

So what are some thing you do, and be kinda specific, like if you undervolt how much, and on what frequencies did you do what. Also helpful to include ROM and Kernel you use.

Check there.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandown:
AHHH I knew that page would come up. I've probably done most of the tips and tricks and what nots what tos, but still get less than I should. That's why i want to know what everyone else is doing because I still can't get good battery life and simply honey is the only rom I got at least 20 hours, and that's without doing anything to save battery. I know there's more than what the guide has, and probably more difficult ways but I'm beyond the difficulty at this point, nothing is too difficult anymore.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kxlling:
My setup is toxic 8 with Bali 1.8.8 UV along with juice defender. With that and the extended battery I am able to watch a 2 hour movie using TV out and my battery only uses about 10 to 15%. I've never seen such good life until I started this rom/kernel. Now every time I try anything else I always go back to it. then with juice defender added too it it seems to last forever, if I didn't use mine so heavily I could easily get 3 days on it. My brightness is always set at max too. When I used to have my phone at stock I couldn't even last 5 hours with how I used it, after those few things I get 15+ easy every day.

Hell, I remember not even having my old flip phones being able to last as long as my vibrant does now.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandown:
See that's the one that gets me the most Bali, everyone says they get great life and that's the one i get the worst. I even undervolted -75mv on 1ghz and 100mv on the rest down, used only network data, auto brightness (love it) etc. and just barely using it maybe 1 hour of talk and 2 hours of music through speaker dead in another 3 or 4 just sitting there. Now i didn't know about juice defender before and I'm trying that now. I'm on ICS Passion 10.6 now was on D9 and Toxic8. I get a little better battery on passion over D9 or toxic8 but maybe and hour more.

Which profile do you use in juice defender? Don't see so far any improvement on balanced.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Juice Defender itself works great but if you really want to see what it does pay for the Plus (Ultimate has more features that the Vibrant just doesn't have, so no point in buying that unless you are moving on to a new phone someday).

One of the features of JD+ is that you can configure it on an app to app basis. So if your screen is locked it will kill something like Wootwatcher.apk but not Pandora b/c you presumably are listening to it. No need for Wootwatcher to be running all day long, they only update it once a day, know what I mean.

Another thing is what IS running in the background? You can use the BetterBatteryStats. It will show you what and when and how long.

Yesterday I pushed it to 33hours with moderate use (don't forget I do sleep too). Heavy would be much lower but I've been busy at work so moderate was all she got. One of the features of JD+ is that you can kill the radio/data from x time to x time. I have mine set from 12-6am (but it you are using it in those times, user takes priority). I don't need to be sending data while I am asleep now do I.

Flashing ROMs a lot also kills battery but T8 and D9 are my home ROMs too.

Edit:: Maybe I should elaborate on the 33hours. Unplugged at around 630a Monday, Music on the way to work. About 20 texts and 5-10 calls, XDA app, Music for about 8+hours Monday and first half of Tuesday, some games here and there (Reckless Getaway, Scrabble, kids played some drawing games), some browsing, started a movie but got sidetracked (about 1hr's worth) and finally plugged in at around 330p on Tuesday. So that isn't heavy but it also wasn't just sitting on my desk either.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nblackst:
I read somewhere (probably androidcentral post) that @ night or whenever your phone is idle, if there is a wifi signal around... turn ur wifi on. For background data stuff that's running, this actually uses less battery than if you let your phone's data do these tasks!
