[Streak 5 General] slaydog:
I don't think the wifi issue is just with DSC or any other Rom. It seems to be independent of the rom.

Did you install the correct base bands for a Gingerbread Rom? If you installed 353 first, then you will have deleted them...
[Streak 5 General] alperin1:
Yeah, I did install the correct basebands.

I may give DSC a go again as it was installed over the last ROM and was not a clean install.
[Streak 5 General] cdzo72:
Nicest Widgets are beautiful widgets
[Streak 5 General] trunks10k:
Sorry to hear that. I had a lot of problems with DSC 7 as well. DSC 65 was perfect for me and baseband 406 was good.. I updated to 407 and DSC 7 and at first gave me a bunch of force restarts. It usually happens when I flash DSC rom and the wifi issue is ok with the Wifi reassociate app n0ps packed its quite tolerable. I have never tried gingerstreak as yet but have heard good things about it. I myself just did a full rebuild when I upped to 407 baseband.

Oh P.S try HD Widgets gives u a bunch of weather options.
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I don't recommend GingerStreak for two reasons:

1: It's built using beta code and some hacked together drivers, making it less reliable than ROMs based on an official release.

2: It hasn't been updated in months. One of the two developers doesn't have a Streak any longer and the other is focusing more on the Streak 7.

You can use any ROM you wish, but I would stick with ROMs based on the 407 release.
[Streak 5 General] alperin1:
YOu are correct about the age of the ROM, but really that is not an issue to me if what I need from the ROM is working. ;) Yes, Steve is working with the 7 and Fards has a new phone but the work they have done and will continue to do is bettery than anything I can do and for that I am very thankful to both of them and the rest of the folks that have input. Who knows Steve may even come out with ICS for the streak. Only time will tell and I am not going to ask about it.

Now, it looks like the WIFI issues are being hammered out in DSC 71 and it is being tested, as of last night it is looking promising. So, it will probably not be too long before I give it a go again.

Lastly, I am getting really pissed off at the crap LCD on this phone, I have had the gorilla glass separate from the LCD like 5 times and this last time may be it for me.
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I have never had good luck with StreakDroid, mostly because it was incompatible with Go Launcher EX. DSC never had that problem, and given the frequent updates to it, was a much better choice. The ROM people choose to use is of course a personal preference, but I honestly believe StreakDroid is not a good choice for a Gingerbread ROM for the reasons stated. In the case of DSC, the most recent update has apparently fixed what was my one minor glitch with it: the phone app not recognizing touches to the screen after engaging the proximity sensor. I've never had issues with WiFi on the ROM since I started using it, but I know others have had freezing issues.

On the subject of build quality, what in the heck do you guys DO with your Streaks to make them virtually fall apart like you describe? Knock on wood, but compared to the horror stories I've read about for the past nine months now my Streak must be built like a tank. The only issues I have ever had with the Streak were with the 16GB MicroSD not reading and the Dell logo coming off the back of the Streak. The first I solved using a pair of needle-nose pliers and the second was solved with a bit of superglue.
[Streak 5 General] webwolf_3000:
lol I agree, I've my streak just over a year, and as far as build quality goes, I'm impressed, I had a Touch pro and Touch pro 2 before this and both of them had a cracked screen within a year. this streak seems to be pretty much indestructible, the only issue I have is a slightly bent hook on the back cover, so it's a bit stiff getting the cover back on, but that doesn't bother me at all :)

in call volume sucked on the stock rom, but using Gingerstreak seems to have sorted that out, not had any complaints from people saying they can't hear me since upgrading the rom :)

Shame dell decided to ditch the device, I'd have liked to have seen a streak 2 :)
[Streak 5 General] Radimus:
I've had my Streak since pre-launch... so going on 2 years.

I've not had a spot of trouble with mine (knock on wood) with the singular exception of battery drain when the device arrived. A factory reset was sufficient to clear that up and since then has been happly chugging away daily.

I do keep mine in an Otterbox Defender (a commuter for a little while)

I'm now running CM7 and loving it. Best ROM I've ever used.
[Streak 5 General] Bugscze:
alperin: Do not use GingerStreak! It has frequent freezes!

I recommend you to use DSC ROM. It's perfectelly stable and quick! It's battery life is amazing too! You won't have any trouble with DSC! :cool:
[Streak 5 General] ellisna:
any pointers

Any pointers... all the roms ive tried have been hit or miss or good for up to 48hrs then refuse to boot...i try to keep with compatible basebands right now i am swapping between the latest streak strains of miui, longhorn, and cm7... all have shined brightly ever so briefly on my unit then taken turns for the worse

usually after app updates or installs (fc's/crashes/etc)

Any pointers for getting to a stable place on any of these phenominal roms would be appreciated...()
[Streak 5 General] bluefrog:
Gingerstreak2.4.4 with GX Kernel 1.0 works well for me. I think it's been on my Streak for 6 or 7 months now (possibly more) with no issues to speak of apart from occasional battery meter randomness

My current baseband is 405. I MAY change it to 406 but I've only got it as a main device for 3 more months or so. Stable ROM so why change stuff eh!

Mine is on for weeks at a time without cause for rebooting, unless I install a a load of stuff - I tend to clear dalvik cache then - or want to recalibrate the battery.
[Streak 5 General] arif.ardyansyah:
Thank You Note

hello.. newbie's here..

just wanna say, i have a DS5 for 2 weeks... bought it 2nd hand (still stock 2.2)

after 2 weeks of reading and reading --like what senior's said--

(and not asking repeating questions)...

now using GingerStreak 2.4.4

Kernel 2.6.35.7-perf

BB 406

(is it update or outdated??)

my first post is just wanna say thank you to DJ Steve and The Manii for the good work... mad a donation for both of them (that's at least what i can do...)

nothing to say,,, before the ussd fix, it was annoying, but it's OK now,,,

looking forward to do a innersd changing like what's in rdtk, xda, and modaco

**finger's crossed**
[Streak 5 General] alperin1:
LOL, no worries. I just sold the Streak as I fubared the screen again. I am sporting a Galaxy Note and loving it.
[Streak 5 General] alperin1:
If everything is running good for you then the ROM is the one to use. If you like to mess around try other ROMs. DJ Steve's ROMs have been good for me!
[Streak 5 General] panamoncreel0:
problems with wifi

I've started using dsc and had problems with wifi freezing, for some reason 2.4.4 worked great for my phone. Anytime I need to use 3g I have too reboot my phone, then to get back to wifi I have to reboot again
[Streak 5 General] Kilman:
I'm newbie here... In DSC since 0.6 ! very stable rom indeed ! Made my streak as "real phone" with working USSD gingerbread rom. And the most important thing is continuous support from developer and dsc team ! :-)

I can't find where can buy it though... :(

58000 WON, that's around USD 52.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Note_E:
Not bad. Like how the Note slips in on the left side. I write left handed so I'm curious about this case.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] flipee:
nice one. i cant find like that here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] [David]:
It's a great leather but you'll be able to find something ALMOST equal on ebay. Portfolio-style with credit cards supports etc.

P. S.

I must confess this one it's a little bit more cool instead of others :P

I love the brown one

Sent from my Galaxy Note with ROMOW 5.1
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Glammyz:
look nice, singapore got sell meh?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] jeromepearce:
Nice case. A good idea, and well presented too!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] irwanizam:
For me the best leather case is from Zenus. im using Mastige Ostrich beige colors
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
I saw a YouTube video on the case and wanted it so badly too. So I went on the site and tried sending an email but got no reply whatsoever. Mind you, this was exactly 10 days ago. Maybe you'll have better luck than me, this is the email l found on the contact page of that site if you want to try: jacklyn@jsmail.co.kr

If you get a reply back, mention me please! :D

Finally I found Gmarket can do the international order with above link, here to share it with you guys who like that badly too :p.....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] posta464:
zenus is the best
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] andrewloh:
I personally don't like zenus. their cases are not elegant on design.. it looks like more suitable for young peoples. I'm too old ;) and can't match their pattern / color style. I will study gmarket website and order it, additional delivery charge is around US$10. I think it worth me to buy it at total US$63, a best leather case plus function of an additional wallet.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
How do you differentiate the color options? Trying to select "black" but not sure. :s
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] andrewloh:
me too but google gives me a hand.

in the option menu, from top to down, i translated the first four options.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
Thanks! I see "black" on there.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] uccoffee:
I want it too :(

but I need to use the car dock, dont want to take it out every time :(

so hard
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] andrewloh:
i've ordered it (black same as fizzerd). It looks more serious :Dd
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Techvir:
Does it say galaxy s2 ???????:eek:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] andrewloh:
yes the ordering page is quite confusing. i spent some time to study before to place to order. the option specify what you are ordering:

갤럭시노트-클래시_블랙(미포함) = Galaxy Notes - classy _ Black (not included)

ps. what not inclulded is the strap. it looks like strap is out of stock but i don't need it anyway.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
Is there a way you can help me place an order? Every time I choose the black one (or anything else for that matter), the site says it's "out of stock" and this was before you purchased yours. Any help will be appreciated.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] dynamolele:
First of All,

many thanks to andrewloh for the link of this amazing case. I'm falling in love for it since first time I've seen, but, unfortunately it seems that they don't ship to Italy :(:(

thanks again Andrew.

I wrote to him just five minutes ago.

Bye!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
I just bought the black case from the original site. I got a reply from a representative of the js-jacklyn site and was able to make a purchase. It's $60 with shipping included. It should take 7-15 days to arrive. Will post pics and remarks when I receive it. Very excited! :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] choikugi:
I noticed there is no hole for speaker

Can anyone confirm if it is true

thank you
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] jeromepearce:
That would be a big 'oooops!'

---------- Post added at 12:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 AM ----------

From the video it appears you are correct, there is no speaker hole...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
Well, thanks to bluetooth headsets, it won't be an issue for me. Besides, the speaker is not completely masked. It exposes when you position the case into various angles as a stand or when you pull out the s-pen. Too small of an issue to sweat for such a versatile piece of leather if you ask me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Attackcenter:
Question and newer english translated link

1. Does it seem conceivable that you should be able to talk on the speaker phone with the thing closed? Otherwise, that would be pretty burdensome to walk around with an open wallet. It does look like it might work... ?

2. Js Jacklyn posted on her Facebook page a more translated english page. You can now choose to get the full set for the case that includes the strap:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
From the looks of it, it is conceivable. The objective of the case - I believe - is to reduce the carrying load for a person on-the-go. My lifestyle involves me travelling very often. So it's all preference.

I'd hate to have to worry about my phone and my wallet when the focus can be aimed at one case that contains all of the above. Throw in a bluetooth headset and I get to have a phone conversation hands-free. Lacking that convenience is the real burden for me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] andrewloh:
mine one has arrived last friday afternoon.. these are pics i took outside a disco.. i will make comment later. :D overall.. it's amazing for me. i love it so much.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] andrewloh:
forget to add pics :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] paris.gr:
It looks really good. Is it easy to use the phone inside the case? In a previous phone and similar case that I had I could still use the phone but for better use I had to take it away. Now with Note I have a similar case from Zenus where the phone is not slided in but you rather lock it around so nothing really covers its face.

Anyway it is a really nice case and it would be great if you could upload more pictures with the phone on a standing position.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
Wow. It looks so nice and sleek. You got yours so quickly. Still anxiously waiting for mine. :/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] dynamolele:
Thank You Andrew for the pictures. Two Little questions: what is the thing near the case?!? And Are the top and bottom of the Edge of the note not covered by the case so like I can See?

Ciao!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
Received the case yesterday and it is awesome. The quality of the leather is top notch. There is even a "leather cream" provided to maintain the case's material. This case has everything I need: protection, wallet, and stand. Best purchase for the Note thus far! :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] uccoffee:
Would you mind tell me is it good as a "wallet" please?

aslo, Is it easy to slide the phone in & out? cos i will need to use it with my car dock as well.

Big decision ~
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
To me, it's a great wallet for a minimalist. I like to keep my wallet as clutter-free as possible. As far as sliding the phone in, it's a tight fit at first. Eventually after breaking it in, it's quite snug and becomes easier to take the phone out and vice versa. Hope this helps!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] MISSDIVA:
Thanks for posting the photos, it looks lovely. Hoping to buy the white note and the red case .

Miss Diva
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
You're welcome. Red on white sounds like a great contrast. Please post pics of yours. :o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] MISSDIVA:
Hi Andrewloh and Fizzerd,

thanks for your efforts, Can you post some close up photos especially the top of the case where the headphone jack is. Thank you.

Regards

Miss Diva
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
Sure. I'll post some close-up shots later.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] truelies1:
$52 is too much, any one cheaper with same design?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
Not that I know of. Never saw a great quality leather case for cheap. That's quite the anamoly.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Earthdog:
What is the overall thickness in the case. I love the look just want to determine the actual bulk it adds.

TIA
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] naimmkassim:
Does it protect the bezel as well? Im really concern and afraid it will not protect and cause the bezel get easily scratch..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
It does add a little more girth when the wallet functionality is utilized. I'll take more pics of it up close so that you can see for yourself.

The bezel is partially protected whilst the case is opened but it's not exposed enough to make it vulnerable to damage - if that makes any sense.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] razhluk:
Sorry for poor quality image. There are 3 cards in the case with 5 bills.

The good thing is the thickness also add a protection to your camera.

Just got mine few hours ago. Price including tax is 3200THB (around $100, got taxed for 50% in Thailand) The quality is top notch as the others said. A little bit tight both inside and outside but might be better in the future. If you looking for a fashion case, look elsewhere since there're tons of cheaper cases out there. But if you looking for a business look leather case with a wallet, grab the black/brown one.

PS. forgot to flip the pic. use a little bit of imagination instead :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] MISSDIVA:
Thanks for the photos Fizzerd,can you do a review of the case with regards to quality, fit, functionality :D Any chance of a few more close up photos with the case open:D:D xxx

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] easycure1974:
Looking so nice, damn they did miss to make a cutout for the speaker otherways I should by it at once
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] razhluk:
actually there is one in the inner case.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] easycure1974:
Thanx!!! Did not see that before - time to buy one :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Earthdog:
Ok, I feel stupid asking this question after the comment about on the flipping the photo...

Or the GMarket site it shows the Note on the right hand side of the case in the picture and the left hand side during the video. And I see your pic's. I just want to make sure the G-Note goes into the Left Hand side right? I am left handed and thats what makes this one unique to me. Just want to confirm because if it Right Side then its not the case for me.

TIA,

Jeff
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] dynamolele:
Ordered 5 days ago after private mails with Wonin Lee of Jacklyncase the yellow ocher case for my note. Total ammount 64$ (case, strap and shipping costs).

I Hope it will arrive to my home (I don't known why, but ship to Italy from China and Korea are at risk) because I'm really falling in love with this case and I0m looking forward to have
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] razhluk:
Sorry that I confused you, got no other camera outside GNote and this poor webcam. Hope that this pic will make it clear.

BTW after I used it for couples of days, I got the problem in another pic.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] MISSDIVA:
I would send it back and either get a replacement or a refund. I wonder if anyone else has experienced that with their case.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Earthdog:
Thank you... I thought I was nuts since they showed it both ways on they site too. Left Sided it is.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] razhluk:
That'll take 2 weeks and $20 of shipping.

I'd rather get it fixed by local shop for couple of hours and $2.

But overall I'm still happy about this case :)

they are the only 2 that I found where the credit cards have no chance to mess up the screen

all others are designed where the credit cards are pressing directly towards the screen, so stupid
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] lovethatnote:
What's that little strap to secure it like? Looks like a PITA. I've got the sgp valentinus case. Bout the same price but faux leather and slightly diff design. But good nonetheless.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] letters_to_cleo:
Thanks, but I guess I'll pass this off for a much lesser price.... also "the best" doesn't necessarily means it should be the most expensive also... , I'm pretty sure there are still flip top leathercases out there who can give you a bang for the buck price without compromising quality and elegance...

:p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] nessqn:
i've used noreve for my HD2 and can say that their products are very good and highly durable...i used it for 2 years and now with a bit of polish,it looks still new...cant say the same about the original samsung flip case i got with my Note...its already peeling off its skin...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] waqas.sonic:
I have this and it's just brilliant ! :D

http://www.stilgut.com/fuer-samsung-galaxy-note/ultra-slimcase-f-samsung-galaxy-note-n7000.php

Adds quiet a bit of thickness to the phone but serves well as a stand and a premium case !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] debernardis:
+1 for Noreve: I have one and it protects well the Note and is very elegant. Plus, it has no magnets or buttons but closes very well.

Only downside, it has external desk stand on wrong side, so that when on desk in landscape mode, your screen is upside-down :-*

But I installed an app that allows 4-direction rotation of display, and this is no more an issue: https://market.android.com/details?id=nl.fameit.rotate
