Order the brown one on Jan 16, left for a trip and back today. The case has arrived.

Overall, I am pretty satisfied with it. Quality is acceptable for a case of $30. The note fits well inside and it works just as expected. For those who want to be able to set the Note at different angles, this is the best case I found so far.

Many people asked if you can flip the cover to the back, and the answer is yes. It works quite similar to the Samsung original flip case, only better.

Due to the design of the case, the bottom is not flat, the thinnest part is about 16mm and the thickest is 17.5mm after the Note is installed into the case, and does not feel too bulky with the case.

Some people is concern with the string but I am not. Is nice to have it so you can lock the cover in case it falls. And the case is completely magnet free.

I would recommend this case to anyone. Only wish they have a leather case to chose from.

Like the white Note so much I just ordered one...lol. Great pics. Thanks for sharing

I have the same style and colour, I recommend this case. Great design and relatively slim fit.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] jimbob456:
Hi, which style is this one?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] robbi22:
I really like this case ! But he has a magnetic closure! Will not closure badly affect the phone or on the screen? Thank you for your answers)))
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] aliens@home:
No, this case has no magnet, only use a string. You can watch the video in their website to see how it works.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Iron Doktor:
Got my Block Folio Series case today. The quality is excellent, the case is lightweight, but it feels very solid. The only thing I don't like is the elastic latch. It holds securely, but is quite fiddly to undo, especially when you have a call coming in.

I am quite tempted to remove it altogether. Aside from that, a very nice case. If anyone wants pics, I can take some.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] itsjusttim:
Completely sold on this case because of your great pics. Thank you
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] aliens@home:
Thanks, you won't regret it, is a very nice case
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] aliens@home:
I actually find it quite easy to latch and unlatch. To latch, I just slide the elastic band from top edge down towards the bottom edge of the plastic holder. To unlatch, also start with the top edge. Doing it in the middle makes unlatching a lot harder.

If you still don't like it, I recommend you just not latch it, because removing it is a irreversible process which you may regret later. But your choice.

My Setup So Far

My Zenus case arrived the other day...finally! 2 or 3 scratches on the bottom and some noticeable discoloration in the leather. Some of the leather is coming apart already. To be honest it looks used when truly inspecting it. Not happy about it and will be following up for a replacement. What I am happy about it is how awesome the case is from a function standpoint.

Above are some pics of how I use my Note now.

-Zenus Block Masstige Folio

-TOPI 3.5mm & MicroUSB Port Covers

-Sennheiser VMX 200 Bluetooth Headset

-Samsung HS3000 Bluetooth Stereo (on the way)

-MiLi Power Shine 4000mAh External Battery (on the way)

-JIG

-Samsung OTG Adapter

-Samsung MHL Adapter

-Freedom Pro Bluetooth Keyboard

-Logitech MX555b Bluetooth Mouse

Off topic but do not buy from SimplyElectronics.net (going to be my new signature)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] itsjusttim:
nice set up
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] beestee:
So after a few days of use (I have the black on black as seen in Atrix_E's photos above) I have determined that despite this case not having real leather, I perfer it over both the real leather carbon and vintage cases. I still prefer the carbon over the vintage, but the Massitage Block Folio takes the cake.

The biggest pros for me:

+No magnetic clasp.

+Nice material facing the screen and no card holders help keep the screen clean.

+Exterior is smooth plus very minimal, making it easier to put in and out of pockets.

+Seems it might have good crush resistance when in the pocket.

One minus compared to the other zenus cases I have used:

-Doesn't seem it would protect from shock quite as well in a drop, but should be adequate for minor drops.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Note_E:
Id really like to treat the synthetic leather of my Zenus Block Folio to bring out more of a shine to it. Anyone try this or have any recommendations?

My plan is to mix a teaspoon of synthetic leather cleaner with water and use a damp cloth to first clean the leather. Then I plan on applying a waterproofing product for synthetic leather.

Synthetic leather is less likely to stain from not having any/many pores. However synthetic leather dries out easily and will eventually "flake" off.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] rebista:
I really like the look and feel of this case. However, I do have issues with it too.

The rubber strap already (after a couple of days) shows signs of wear. I don' t see how it could be replace when it stopped functioning.

And it is not very stable when you use its standing function. If you want to use it with the pen it doesn't withstand the pressure and slips backward into a lying position.

I feel it was too expensive for these flaws.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ankydu:
zenus masstige block folio case users, does it cause any scratches on the phone bezel, does the phone holder have sharp edges ???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Note_E:
No and no /10char
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ankydu:
I ve finally got the block folio case. Has anybody felt that it may be too tight for the phone. Firstly it was very hard to get the phone into the case. And once I had this issue that I plugged in the headphone and the tune in radio icon kept reappearing and disappearing from the notification area as if flickering. Though it happened only once I was wondering could it be due to the tightness of the case.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] yyl:
One thing I have not seen people mentioning is that this case has a cutout for the earpiece, so when you are talking on the phone, you can close the case and continue talking. You don't need to fold the flap back like you have to with so many of the other diary or folio cases.

Regarding the elastic band, I really don't use it much. I just leave it loose most of the time.

The case is slim and the exterior is smooth and slightly slippery, so it is very easy to put it in my jeans pocket and take it out.

And I like the synthetic leather material. It has a worn look that adds to the texture. Plus it is animal welfare-conscious.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] RVD:
i got mine today! i bought mine on ebay from a seller in korea. the zeus usa site was weird...wanted to charge me $50. the international site was $29. korean seller on ebay was also $29 (including shipping).

the case is great. it wasn't a tight fit for me so it was easy to get my note in there. i got the red one. i'm not sure why but i like red...i have a red bike, red bike helmet, and now a red case.

it is cool that you can close the case and still talk.

the elastic is a little weak and the part that you hook it up to is a little sharp with edges so i don't know how long it will last. i am ok with not using it though and just letting it flap.

i also got a cheap plastic case and that was ok but this is much better.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] paris.gr:
Hi. Does the elastic band secure the case in a closed position? Also is it durable enough after long use?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] beestee:
The band on mine wore out and would not remain closed.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] paris.gr:
I was afraid of this. I will stick with my current case at least for now.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Note_E:
My elastic strap feels as strong as the day I got it months ago. Use your fingernail to lift it over the plastic piece instead of tugging it down and out.

Same goes for closing the case. Run the elastic strap right over the plastic piece.instead of pulling it down around it.

By doing this you won't be constantly stretching it out.

Another tip to try and tighten the elasticity back up is remove your phone from case. Wet the elastic rope with cold water and then blow dry it (the rope) on hot. Do it 2-3 times and it should tighten up again.

Off topic but I ended up using a synthetic leather cleaner and weather repellent on the case. It really conditioned the leather as over time it gets really dry and flakey. Now it shines and looks moisturized again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] paris.gr:
Is this something that you can do easily and quickly when for example the phone is ringing? Also is it steady in the stand position? And based on you experience would you recommend this case?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Note_E:
I've never missed a call with the flap completely closed. It is indeed steady in the standing position. The left side has a rubber strip that holds it at whatever angle you want. I lay in bed at nite with it standing on my chest reading emails or what have you...so so convenient.

Lastly, cases are like shoes to me. I get tired of them after awhile or when I see something new I like to switch. BUT, I love this case and have no desire to try anything else. Owned 3 cases before this one. It is the best Zenus case IMO.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] beestee:
I must mention that i never excessively stretched the band, but I also never did anything like what was mentioned to regenerate the tension with it.

It is still one of my favorites even though the elastic is loose, a great case that I would almost go to the effort of making a DIY clasp for.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] paris.gr:
Thank you both for your feedback. I already have the Zenus carbon and I look for a spare one with this type of stand function. The case looks good but I am still not convinced about the band.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Note_E:
Then stick with your magnetized case lol..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] paris.gr:
I have it for about 4 months and I have zero problems with the magnet so I am really happy. It is also top quality. My wife has also the blue one and again no problems at all.

I just wish Zenus had a different closing mechanism for the folio one.

[General Questions and Answers] halong23:
I have a SS galaxy s2 hd lte, after I copy file framework-res.apk from /system/framework and put it in folder usbStorage, my phone get stuck at boot screen every time I restart the phone. I assume that the copied file creates a conflict with the original file whenever the phone try to boot. If I can somehow delete the copied file, I think this problem will be solved. However, as the phone is bricked, there is no way I can access the USB storage. Does anyone know how access it in this case ? I just got the phone a week ago and I'm a noob about the android, so if anyone know how to solve this, please help!

[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
I'm freshly unlocked and perm rooted; I've already used Titanium Backup, Root Explorer, etc.... my Su is working.

I looked at the CleanTool thread in the Dev forum to see how to remove bloat, and executed the same commands from adb shell .... here's a small pasted section :

$ pm disable com.gameloft.android.Verizon.GloftLGolf2.lgolf2

pm disable com.gameloft.android.Verizon.GloftLGolf2.lgolf2

[1] Killed pm disable com.gameloft.android.Verizon.Glof

2.lgolf2

$ pm disable com.blockbuster.app.htc

pm disable com.blockbuster.app.htc

[1] Killed pm disable com.blockbuster.app.htc

Following a reboot, these bloat apps are still here and functioning. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong, or a more effective way to selectively remove what I consider bloat?
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:

$ means you are not in SU

you need to type SU in ADB

The $ will change to #

Then try again (making sure if your phone asks you to allow ADB SU privs, you check allow; if that happens)

Hi, this morning I did a factory reset. Before that, I remebered to have a widget on my notification bar, including wifi, bluetooth, auto-rotating... Now it's gone.

Anyway, can any one please tell me how to bring it back? thanks.

Go into Settings > Asus customize settings > and be sure "use Asus quick settings" is checked - this is where your issue is, I bet it is unchecked.

Once you check that, then when you open anything in the task bar the quick settings will show the row of widgets... minus GPS since those SOBs took that one out.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheXclusive814:
Tomorrow is the last day to return my Galaxy Nexus but i really don't want to. But the battery life is killing me. I always keep the 4g off unless. I am downloading something.

I figured next step is adjust the kernel. I came from a Droid X so i have never played with kernels. I have setcpu installed and have a read forums but just can't grasp what to change in there that makes a difference. Like when to use interactive, conservative, ondemand and performance

If anyone can share screens of their setcpu settings and setcpu profiles that get them great battery life it would be much appreciated. I'm a visual learner lol. Or screens of the franco kernel app if i should invest in that.

My setup :

Latest of AOKP

Latest franco nightly

Samsung extended battery
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johantheolive:
As per franco himself...

Post a log from betterbatterystats (app), the battery settings windows, and cpuspy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
Franco recommended conservative last time I checked.. also how much are you getting for screen on time? If you're only on 3G you will probably only ever get around 3 hours with the stock battery.. don't make any profiles in set CPU with Franco kernel he strongly advises against that.

Also last I read he had the minimum frequency at 700mhz

My personal MyTouch 4G stopped charging from one minute to the other a few months ago. I found a place in Texas that charges $ 49.99 to fix the charging port issue. I think that $ 90.00 is a little bit much. You pay via PayPal, you send the phone to them (make sure you insure it, it's worth the money in case the package gets lost), they fix it within 48 hours and send the fixed phone back to you and they'll provide you with a tracking number as well. Worked like a charm for me, my phone is up and running without any problems since. Please PM me if you need their website :)

What is the best format for the SD card for our TFP's? I have 2 32gb class 10 SD cards that I want to use with my TFP and want to format it correctly the first time. Also would it be good of if I put it in my Evo3D and turned it to use either ext3 or 4 before using it in my TFP? Thanks in advance
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
Anyone know which wouldbe better, ntfs or fat32?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Striatum_bdr:
ext3 will be read by any android devices, but not natively if you mount it under windows (if you have that ... lol)with direct USB connection.

ext4 and ntfs kernel support is perhaps not natively implemented in all kernels, in custom ones and some stock ones for ext4 yes, but ntfs not sure at all..... (don't know for TFP still doesn't have mine).

that's why sdcards are still FAT32 formatted... you have heavy fragmentation, 4GB file limit, but you can read it in every OS.

If you use only network share (samba, Cifs) you can format as you want as long as the kernel support it.
