If it's REALLY titanium and not some coated plastic, then $30 is fair enough to me. Too bad it's not for LTE or ext battery...

You can get these much cheaper for 10 $ with free shipping from obostore : http://www.obostore.com/imak-ultra-titanium-faceplate-for-samsung-nexus-prime-p-3833.html

Titaniam? **** lol, wouldn't that mess with the already somewhat poor radios in the Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
the imak is a hong kong brand, i'll check it out tmr and post back.

i'm sure it's not titanium or even metal, i've seen lots of imak stuff around but haven't seen this.

i'll post back tmr.

obostore has them for $10 along with many other great accessories at cheap prices.

Probably. But you know the saying: form over function.

if it's a titanium or metal case, unless it has leather or rubber coating inside, it's not going on my gnex, putting it on may scratch the phone.

Anyone get this?

One of the links said it was flexible or something. Doesn't sound like it's really titanium then...

If it is, how do We for it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GuestK0080:
I find it difficult to believe these are really titanium or even titanium coated aluminum. Not for that price anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
I just went through two of the largest shopping mall in hong kong, mong kok that sell phones stuff, only found the normal version and not the stated titanium one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tommyz2kool:
If that case is really made out of titanium then its a good deal
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimboss:
I'd be worried about it scratching up my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mikroft:
Pretty sure this is just titanium colour. No way actual titanium would be that cheap.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tsekh501:
Does NFC work with it? i.e. does it shield out the NFC antenna as with the metal battery cover?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paikmanSTi:
Yeah most likely it is referring to it being of a titanium/metallic color, not the actual metal itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
Unless you're going to buy one and try it out, you wont get an answer any time soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] k20igor:
i agree. and it sucks that they get all the good stuff, wish samsung made the gnex same size for all so everyone can has awesome cases
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pnnorth:
This looks like the same case, albeit a different colour, to several others that can be purchased for a lot less elsewhere.

eg this is a white version on eBay for £2.99: http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?emvAD=360x515&emvcc=0&nborh=&nbpr=2&itemId=270860130810

They stick a brand name on it and add £10 to the price.

If it is actually made of titanium, it's a bargain at that price.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Barcajuve:
I have this exact case. Bought it in China for $4. It is just a plastic case. The word 'titanium' is misleading here. It actually refers to the color not material. Quality is subpar. I have the 'Rock' case too. Same design with Imak but better quality.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
It's normal, the cdma version only cater for a few % of the market or just the USA, but the GSM version is worldwide, japan and korea also included, it was only the last few yrs that they both start to support GSM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
Guys, use some common sense here. Titanium is an expensive and annoyingly hard to machine material. CNC milling cases with complex geometry out of a piece of Titanium would take a lot of time and effort.

A realistic price for a real Titanium case would probably be $100-200. More likely $200.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djras111:
stamp formed titanium sheets is not that expensive. I have several hand grauds for my fencing swords (epee and foil) made from titanium alloy. They only cost ~$16 but last forever. http://stores.thefencingpost.com/-strse-182/GEUH12/Detail.bok
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vladimirhtg:
"titanium material"? can anybody describe this? i'm looking for something strong....for some reason 'titanium material' doesnt do it for me. if its metallic then id be happy
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Barcajuve:
Hey guys, I have this case. It is made of plastic!!!

I have already mentioned it in my post above. Titanium simply means the color.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pnnorth:
Ask the manufacturer what the ti content of the alloy is, I bet it's something like 2%.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djras111:
It is 75% titanium, 5% Aluminum, 2% Tin, 2% Zirconium, 4% Molybdinum, and 4% Chromium...

Now... stop pulling facts outa your A$$
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pnnorth:
I didn't present anything as a 'fact' and I don't appreciate the tone of your reply. Your 19th century pursuits have gone to your head.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sabesh:
I just received this case. I can tell you that it's completely made of plastic. Also, doesn't look quite as "metallic" as in the pictures. Not a bad looking case, but nothing spectacular.

The positive thing is that it fits perfectly with the extended battery unlike my other hard shells (Case-Mate Barely There & Incipio Feather). It's as if it's made FOR the extended battery. Cheers.

I have an one month old white Galaxy S2 and now the back frame are almost brown . I have a picture off it here mobil.zaki.dk I´m wondering if there are others out there with the same problem ?

Normally i have the phone in a microfibre pouch. I believe that the plastic are without UV-protection.

The phone haven't been exposed to any chemicals or dirt. The only thing i believe is that it must be extremely sensitive to UV. I´m just wondering it´s a phone that´s been sold in millions. There must be other with the same problem.

I have an idea for a patent, that I'd like to submit to google for patenting, since it costs too damn much to do it on my own...

Anybody know how to go about that?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermentality:
I would be careful as most companies have a small print clause saying ideas discussed in correspondence to them are owned by the company and can be used as they see fit.

That means they could steal your idea and not even credit you.

Not saying they would but legally they could.

Dave
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nektoinphx:
In this particular case, that would be fine.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pal.szasz:
What is your goal with patenting? If you just want to make sure nobody else will patent it, just publish it, since then you will create prior art. The only problem might be that your idea might give other companies another (similar but not same) idea, which they can patent. But then again that could happen even if you patent the idea.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bimbobo:
I open a new thread even though the content is and will be discussed in others.

It's just getting confused to keep writing, quoting or answering threads of 20 and more sides.

I hope that the mods are not banning me for this :):)

Frustration is grabbing me badly, like for many others on this forum, because even though I can read that ASUS/Gary Key is giving us a hand to solve or improve issues, I think we are getting nowhere.

If the WiFi/BT issue is caused by lousy hardware/software combination, then no fw will solve the issue.

Many of us have still a chance to return the device and get 600€ back, as in my case.

We need an official statement from ASUS telling us in which way they will protect us and their own name from bad publicity, if the issues are not solvable.

ASUS in Denmark knows zero! I have to mention this forum and Gary Key, just to give them an idea of what it is going on.

The only place I managed to get valuable information is in this forum. That's poor for a company like ASUS.

No mention on their support sides in any country, that "they are experiencing" issues with the device.

I bought mine through Amazon DE, and I have 30 days (now only 14) to send it back. It seems that nobody can promise anything, so what do I/we do?

I have no other complaint that poor wifi and BT causing connection break downs or badly signal. The rest is fine!

What are we customers, that were relying on ASUS brand, quality and service, going to do?

Tell me to send it back and I will probably do it, tell me something else, BUT tell us something more that "we are working on XXXXXXXXXXX solution".

Begin to tell us, what is next step either to get a replacement with fixes or money back if the "returm window" is closed.

Thanks in advance and regards.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PrimeTimeBro:
If you are not happy with your Bluetooth/Wi-Fi the only thing you can do is return it for a refund and wait for another tablet because the design of the Prime is causing every single prime to have a weaker Wi-Fi signal.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bimbobo:
... so the thread Gary opened is useless?? I think it does not seem like they gave up yet.

What are they trying to fix then?

Are you saying this because you know more than Asus or "us" do?

Regards
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
what you said, OP, is perfectly understandable. XDA may have useful info but the company, Asus, needs to address the people more directly or more often. Gary can only do so much at a time. I'm sure he is being bombarded with stuff at the moment. although those who experience BT/wifi combo issues are limited in the way they use the combo, they are those who aren't affected. look at jjvega thread where he made a video showing it wasn't affecting his new tablet. Fixes are in the works. we just tend to be impatient alot of times. if return window is dwindling down, and issue is bothering you that much, then only sensible thing to do is return it. that'll just be Asus loss then. No one should be stuck with a device they unsatisfied with, point blank. good luck on what you decide to do. do what you feel is right. maybe even try to exchange if possible.

plus I don't think you will be banned for your OP. nothing wrong or out of line with what you said. to me, it seems like Gary answers faster to PM than in a thread where people there are even trying to flame or belittle him. I've got some great info or help from Gary. people keep abusing his presence n he will go. then people will out back n will wish he was still around.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] logan2k:
Gary mentioned a fix in February, so it will most likely come after your return window. Return it while you can. Purchase it again when you are confident they have fixed this issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] redpoint13:
Except for mine and my friends.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PrimeTimeBro:
Just because WI-FI has a slightly weaker range doesn't mean it doesn't work it just doesnt work quite as good as most other Wi-Fi devices but it should be fine for most in home situations. I am not sure exactly what issue OP is talking about though perhaps some Wi-Fi units truly have issues on same Primes I just known the range on the 3 Primes I have had is exactly the same in my home but not quite as good as my 4 other Wi-Fi devices I have tested ( range is not quite as far)

It's not as if an answer will follow immediately after a bug is reported. It takes time to discover a bug, confirm it, come up with a fix, test it, obtain more samples, test on those samples, and distribute it, not to mention all the logistical corporate and other engineering steps that I skipped over. If you're unsure you want it, return it and buy it later.

As far as non-US issues, I'd bet that SO FAR there just haven't been as many issues in Germany as in the US, so they just haven't acknowledged it's a WW issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bimbobo:
..so far issues are:

1) WiFi signal is not good as other WiFi devices (not laptops).

2) BT and WiFi issues when both are used at the same time.

3) Flickering of displays primarely on YouTube and after ICS installation.

4) MicroSD Card slot... as mentionned in another thread in this forum.

What a pity! But I wonder who in the h*** controlled this device before sending out on the market.

Nothing can be perfect, but these issues are not small things, and also very easy to troubleshoot and discover.

I test NetGear stuff, and something like this will be caught by "betatesters" 99.9%

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
My WiFi range was pretty good, at least acceptable. However when you move away from the router the speed got very slow. Next to the router I could get 20MB/s, 1 floor down (with full WiFi bars) I got 5 MB/s and another floor down around 2MB/s (still 2 WiFi bars).

GPS worked.. but wasn't good enough for navigation at least in populated area's.
