[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] deny_winarto:
Hmm you're right i just noticed it.

But I bought it a samsung's official retailer in my city though,

so i'm pretty sure it's authentic,

it's the same store that sells other anymode case variant..

Fortunately i was able to try the case before buying it,

and i decided to buy it after comparing it to my previous 4 cases..
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] Richdog:
UPDATE!

Well, just received the case that I ordered from Ebay here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/270916415...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_1304wt_1270

Yes, I know, I dissed faux leather cases earlier, as im a leather snob, but a leather one I ordered didnt end up arriving so I needed a temporary solution until I find a replacement.

In short: the thing fits and works pretty much perfectly, all ports easily accessible. Snug, tight, and very very secure. The stand functions I would give 7/10, both angles work fine with a bit of adjustment (didnt stand vertically at first but with a bit of adjustment it works fine), and all in all im very happy with this case. If it was leather, id be over the moon even more so. I reccommend this case to anyone, its perfectly manufactured. :D

Just ordered this leather one too, so will report back when I get it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/270924588139?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 :)

I have this one on the way, should have it by friday:http://www.ebay.com/itm/Smart-Flip-...616?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4cff35d180

I still want this though:http://www.ebay.com/itm/SAMSUNG-GAL...?pt=US_Tablet_Accessories&hash=item2ebc75c45d
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] Richdog:
The first one is fugly, and the second one looks impractical (the think clasp looks fiddly). :(
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] TBarb169:
To each his own...everyone has one, belly buttons and a$$holes:rolleyes:

some like to go with the mainstream, plain & black. I like to go loud:D
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] deny_winarto:
I wouldn't recommend the second one,

First, the folded side is too small to hold the tab because it's 4 folds,

unlike Rock case and apple's 3 folds.

So it's not too stable

Second it doesn't have any strap unlike rock, and lastly the size is off by a few milimeters. Overall it's bad quality product,

Go for Rock case if you want a smartcover type.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] brehon1104:
this one looks really good.

my requirements are:

1. 'stays closed' via magnet or clip or button.

2. good coverage.

3. lightweight

4. slim

This seems to satisfy all of them for the lowest price of any i've viewed (that dont even satisfy my requirements).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] TBarb169:
Do you have this case? How do you know it is off by a few mm?:confused:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] deny_winarto:
Yes, i have the black one.

Here's some pics

As you can see it won't fit properly because it's off by a few mm

And the 4 fold is just not enough to hold it firmly

The rock one is better in terms of quality
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] randomguy101:
I think you mean you wouldn't recommend the first one.

I just received the same case off ebay last night, can't say that I'm too impressed with it. Mine's off by a few mm as well, but my biggest gripe is that the magnetic closing does not work. There is simply no ferromagnetic components on the right side of the tab for the case to stick to. I've added my own strap in, but there is really no good place to put it without partially blocking either the charging port, the headphone port or the back camera. Here's some pictures:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] deny_winarto:
My bad, you're right it's the first one.

http://www.minihotsale.com/rock-sam...blet-light-cool-folio-leather-case_p1435.html

I bought rock from that website, and i'm quite satisfied with it.

But unfortunately you can't use it on non-flat ground e.g: when you put the tab in your lap..
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] TBarb169:
Blah:( Wish i would have know that before I ordered it...I was looking at the Rock Case too, now I will have to wait another month to get on shipped from hong kong or china...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] tku01:
Finnaly got mine

I Can have my 7.7 standing in landscape now and actually use it.

I have the Samsung original case but it start to glide so I have to put something behind it.

The fit in the lower left corner isn't good but until the "perfect" case comes around I will stick with this one.

Maybe :-)

It took about 20 days to recieve it.

Worth it? Yes, I believe so.

Can you see the pictures? I can't.

Here's the links:

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] TBarb169:
I can see them.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] TarjeiB:
Apple's is also 4 folds - but at 4:3 aspect ratio (and build quality, I guess) - it works much better.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] TBarb169:
Just got my case today from China. Not too bad, mine seems to fit better than the previous posters does.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] shinji21:
when did you purchase the case tbarb169? I ordered mine on 3/10 and am still waiting....
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] TBarb169:
I purchased mine on 3/8, i followed the package from china to chicago where it sat for about 4 or 5 days, then it just showed up. I don't think the tracking is very accurate.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] uncle_buckman:
I have the orange version.

Doesn't it bother you guys that when the case is folded the felt like material picks up dirt easy? It's so annoying to me. I don't know whether to send it back to China or not...

Seen this one too, looks alright;

My case just came in! I updated my thread with pictures and impressions. :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] JoJo2211:
After reading this entire thread, I've come to the conclusion that this case is the winner:

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] do0b:
just got my case today. took 17 days to arrive. ordered from ebay.

http://imgur.com/aMic8

http://imgur.com/nNlqM

top and bottom has a rubbery surface which is quite nice feel to it. provides grip on table surfaces.

http://imgur.com/Xo1cp

doesnt not have magnets on the ends.

http://imgur.com/LNuNr

the cover doesnt go all the way to the end which exposes the silver boarder which isnt a problem.

http://imgur.com/nf6yY

all 4 corners fits nicely and doesnt come loose.

http://imgur.com/TAyuy

thats the hightest angle you can go.

http://imgur.com/HvMkQ

i noticed when i open the cover, the top section of the back does that. might just be mine or some sort of fault. but no biggie.

http://youtu.be/BwbNL5Jr2Wc

works well with Smart Cover.

Overall, i'm happy with my purchase.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] gvoima:
This seems to be an interesting choice too. iRoo Ultra Slim case.

This fashionable case also seem to have magnets (how do they work?! :)) and is supposedly high quality.

Sadly it's available only in asia, yay ebay!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] do0b:
kinda looks like the original case from samsung but different colours.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] skeeterpro:
Have been through many cases (4) and finally found this one. Perfect fit. Snug and protective. Excellent price. AND.....you need NOT wait a month to ship from China!

Very well crafted IMO.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] do0b:
it is. had my eye on that too BUT, it didnt ship to aus QQ
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] skeeterpro:
Really? That sucks. Have you thought of a reshipper? Or having a chum reship?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] tr2ride:
Anyone seen this one yet? I just ordered one. Kinda odd it didn't ask me for color.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Smart-Flip-...ccessories&hash=item3f148d2c8e#ht_7297wt_1097
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] TonyBigs:
If you care about the color, it might be a good idea to contact the seller immediately.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] sman55:
They send black by default. I have this and I think it's great for a cheap general purpose case
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] FarmBoi:
I was interested too and thought it ridiculous they didn't ship to Oz so emailed the supplier. Jake from ExactDeal replied saying that if I used PayPal then he could invoice directly. Presumably this implies they could ship to Aus.

Hadn't yet followed up as I thought the shipping charge might be exorbitant.

Feel free to make those enquiries and post back your findings. (I bought a different case since but might still be interested).

Cheers

Yoobao

I just got me a Yoobao real leather case for my P6800 and I cant be more satisfied...

It's slim and protects the corners all-around. The tablet slips in and so it can't fall out while the bezel is quite thin... It has two little magnets in the corners so the flap's not opening... And it's real leather... So if you can spend some more money for it ($30-$40), I highly recommend it...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] OdieS:
Please could you take some photos of the Yoobao case with your Tab in it?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] Ernthelfer:

From the website:

Is there really such a feature on GT 7.7? I never heard of it.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] Newguy70:
I have been a loyal customer of the following otterbox.com. For one main reason, why shell out money for a cell phone or tab, and not put it in a case that can protect it from bumps and scratches. . . .

I'm using this, you be the judge. . . .

http://m.otterbox.com/on/demandware...olor=20&start=1&cgid=samsung-galaxy-tab-cases
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] regius:
This case is not compatible with GT 7.7
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] acid123:
Just grab a magnet and try it out
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] dio05:
where to test? Front or back... i ran a magnet over the whole tab while the screen was off... nothing happened
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] kr00t0n:
I've got one of these

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayIS...PageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:GB:3160#ht_1498wt_1037

Perfect fit and looks smart, only downside is the power button is a little trickier to press. It opens up like a normal book as well, not the weird reverse book way of the official Samsung cases. :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] trustme_:
cheap and nice !
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] gvoima:
This got me curious too. Can someone who has the case try it out? Or someone who has a small magnet. Set the screen timeout to e.g. 10min and slowly go through the tab with a magnet near the surface, if it goes to sleep, then yay! Otherwise...

As far as I know there should not be any magnet wakeup/sleep feature. Or then it's just a feature that samsung informs to case manufacturers if they want to implement it.

The case itself looks very nice and is high on my order-this-list :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] gvoima:
Well I contacted Spiegen about the magnetic sleep/wake feature and as I suspected, it was an error in the description. (about this case.)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] rktboy74:
I tried a couple of different cases but have settled on this one:

(I'm new so I can't post images or links yet but it's ebay item 220953547356)

It fits nice and snug, protects all four corners and works great as a stand with 3 different viewing angle options. The price was right too.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] Krutet:
Looks good! Does it add alot of bulk? and how is the stand feature?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] rktboy74:
Closed, the tab and case are about 15-17 mm thick. I personally don't consider that bulky, but then again, I had an Otterbox on my 7" Galaxy Tab so just about anything feels thinner than that! What bulk there is is put to good use. The Tablet feels really well protected and the surface that closes against the glass is nicely cushioned.

I think it works brilliantly as a stand. There's 3 different viewing angles and all are very stable.

I'm sorry I can't post any pics yet!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] VortX:
So they copied the description from some iPad case and did not bother to change it. I hope they are not so careless when making their products.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] KuRi:
I bought the rock one... very good so far, maybe the best smart cover case :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] gvoima:
I also ordered the rock case. I hope it's as good as they say. At least it was priced reasonably enough.

Just have to wait a week for it to arrive.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] tr2ride:
I ended up with the gray one of these and think it's pretty dang good

http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...acking-5pcs-Lot-High-quality-wholesalers.html

You can find it other places without the lot pricing. Pomelo seems to be manufacturer.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] gvoima:
Had the Rock case for a while now. And it fits nice, it looks very good and professional (for the price I paid, it's premium. 36 dollars). The cover is a little bit wobbly when hanging loose but it doesn't matter.

When you fold it up to horizontal position, it stands quite good, even when you slide or tap the top part of the tab, so no complaints there. Typing position is also great.

The elastic band that keeps the cover close is easy to open and close, and it's really good at keeping it closed ;-)

The corners are about 2mm thick and thus protects the tab well. And all the ports are easily accessible.

The only negative thing that I find annoying is, that when you use the lid as a stand, you have to roll it together in a way that the inside (the microfiber that protects the screen from scratches) is pointing outwards and it picks up some dust from the surface where it is standing on.

And the dirt then gets on the screen. Mine was full of dust after some use for the first time.

Hey guys~! After reading your posts on smart screen cover, i discover an app which replicate the same effect using the proximity sensor.

This is annoying. I see the app (Smart Screen Off) on my phone, but it's not there when I search from my tab. I can't stand when that happens. Does anyone know how to fix that?

---------- Post added at 09:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 AM ----------

I have the el cheapo version of the smart cover (bought on eBay) but I can't stand that there is no way to keep the cover closed (magnets, band, etc.). I am going to take a look at the Rock now but can't figure out how it stays closed. There is a strap that is described to keep it closed on the eBay listings, but no pictures. Any help here?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] jonamafun:
Yes there is an elastic strap that can hold the front cover in place. It normally sits behind the tab.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] esoh:
Thanks. Does it get in the way? If it's a pretty seamless kind of thing, I'll get the rock. Otherwise this one that I have is OK.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] RtN89:
got the officiable book case, though it does seem the joining part between back and front is a bit flimsy. It also has no strap to hold the flip when not in use. Other than that the inner lining feels nice and is very slim.

There are two apps, the one from James Kim and the AndroidHD one. Which is the one you are recommending?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] rktboy74:
After trying a few, this is the one I settled on too. Nice fit, 3 viewing angles for the stand and it just feels safe and secure when closed.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories] N_M_S:
I'm using this one since sometimes and it's working very well, and the magnet is great, it holds the cover when closed and when in stand mode.

the only problem is that it's difficult to take p\out the device when needed.

We are having a lot of people with the 'USB Device Not Recognized' on their computer. Most of us seem to try to help them by getting them to check their drivers. I found a reference to this program in another thread (that I closed before copying the link to reference). I have not seen it recommended here and wanted to throw it out there. Anybody with experience, let us know your opinions of the program.

USBDeview v2.00

USBDeview is a small utility that lists all USB devices that currently connected to your computer, as well as all USB devices that you previously used.

For each USB device, extended information is displayed: Device name/description, device type, serial number (for mass storage devices), the date/time that device was added, VendorID, ProductID, and more...

USBDeview also allows you to uninstall USB devices that you previously used, disconnect USB devices that are currently connected to your computer, as well as to disable and enable USB devices.

I wonder if it can help some with this problem.

ADD:

You will probably be surprised to see how many Samsung related devices there are... at least for me.

The software seems to clearly show you all of the your usb drivers installed - in a lot easier way than device manager. It will let you uninstall drivers. And upon plugging the device back in the drivers will reinstall as you would expect.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
Good question & find. Along the same lines for Linux users (not sure about the Mac...I need to learn those darned things) there's a command:

lsusb

lsusb -v lists verbose info about the USB hubs and what's connected. lsusb -vv (note that's two v's, not a w) provides even more information.

use search and type root v10 and the letter of your version. THen install ROM manger, install CWM, download a ROM you want, flash it to your device and have fun, or search for SmartFlash and use it to flash V20B to your device, since this is rootable already.
