[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rob Irizarry:
Got my Reiko Hybrid Case and removed the Speck Candyshell I got at AT&T the day I purchased my Note - I couldn't walk out without having some kind of protection on it.

I will corroborate a few things noted by others.

The Speck is 'barely there' while the Reiko is, in a word, 'huge'. However there's also no comparison in terms of protection.

There's not much to the Speck. I hadn't realized just how thin the Speck was because the AT&T CSR put the phone right into it. There is a very thin rather rigid rubber inner liner with a very thin plastic outer shell.

Looks wise, the Speck retains the feel that you have a very lightweight and thin phone. It fits so well I've had people handle the phone with it and not realize there was a case until they turned it over and saw the Speck logo.

The Reiko is a tank and if maximum protection is what you want, this works well. I did note the lack of a soft liner where the plastic case will make contact with your plastic phone's back. The Otterbox has a soft liner on its iPhone 4 line. In a fall, there could be just enough play in the Reiko to cause scratching as a result.

Aesthetically, it makes an already large phone tremendous. In fact, it is a hair thicker than the iPhone Otterbox even though the Galaxy Note is the thinner phone. It is otherwise a good looking case.

The Reiko is similar but not identical in build quality to the Otterbox. I already noted the lack of a soft liner for the plastic case. The other noteworthy issue is the seal of the front plastic against the Note's face. There is definitely a small gap on the Reiko along the bottom lip whereas the Otterbox is a tight seal all the way around. Why does it matter? Because it's a an entry point for debris which could potentially scratch the device. This is one area where the Speck Candyshell shines. The rubber lip makes solid contact with the screen and it isn't so soft that it easily deflects.

You'll also have difficulty with car mounts if you go with the Reiko. I picked up the Mountek CD Slot mount and it's a solid device. However, the retaining ears just can't hold the Reiko solidly - a combination of shallow ears and a very thick case. I feel the phone is one hard stop away from flying out of it. I'm still debating what I want to do here because I really like the build quality of the Mountek and could see a small mod to the ears fixing the issue.

Hope this helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] firemedic1343:
My feeling is that this case is worth what I paid for it. The Otter and Seidio are way overpriced in my opinion. I think the Reiko will hold me over until I can get a low priced Ballistic or Trident from a third party.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] itsnowornever:
I just got my black and purple one in yesterday! Ordered from ebay for $8.99 with free shipping (gotta really dig for that price) and it's AWESOME! I use the stand as a grip when I have only one hand free

---------- Post added at 08:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:45 AM ----------

I think you got a bad case...mine has no play, it's very well fitted. Yes it makes a bulkier phone, what did you expect? I have a cheapie $15 car mount for GPS and it holds my phone just fine, in fact, the car mount can still expand a little wider if I wanted it too, plus the mount has a kick stand so I can lean the phone back a little to avoid glare from the screen as well as prevent it from falling out (even the the arms can hold the phone in quite tight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] firemedic1343:
Agreed, I have 2 cases and neither has any play.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Budge:
Do you think this case would still fit if I'm using a Glas.t screen protector? It adds some thickness to the screen (much more than a normal screen protector).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ragin Cajun:
Does anyone else notice that the rubber outer shell really smells bad? I like the case but the smell is horrible.

I don't notice this on mine,just a very slight rubber smell if I put my nose right up to the case
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] murphy_31047:
Got mine today from Amazon for $14 shipped and it is comparable to otterbox. The s pen is hard to get out. And yeah the damn thing smells like straight ass. I like the case.

Mine didnt smell all that bad at all... and after a few days - it's completely neutral. Definitely agree - excellent inexpensive Otterbox alternative.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] murphy_31047:
I didn't soak in coffee and it smells fine now just had to use it for a day or two. Awesome case!:-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] reubenray:
Has anyone found a holster that the Reiko will fit into?

I received my case yesterday and it has no smell at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] WiFivomFranMan:
This case feel like a cheap piece of crap and it should at 10 bucks shipped. It is also huge. I don't get the feeling if it hits the floor it is really going to absorb any any real shock. I mean it is pretty much all hard plastic.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] azpatterson:
I got this case about a month ago. I really like it. Makes the phone a bit bulky. I wish there was a case that could be used with the car dock. The kickstand on mine broke off but not a big deal... didn't reallt need it. It is comparable to an otterbox. If you dont mind the bulk... It's a good case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kimtyson:
Price on eBay was lowered to $6.88 shipped. You can't lose at that price. Got one for super protection when needed. Thanks OP.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lojak29:
I use the same case , yes it does the job but nothing like an otterbox case , the only problem these cases have are the rubber does not fit snug into the plastic where its suppose to make the rubber exterior snug its very lose,you can pull the edges apart, ive seen the same offbrand case for many other cases . It does the job but not like otterbox , we need a otterbox defender series for the note!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] VonEsch:
Goto Otterbox.com, they're making it. Commuter case is already out

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Afishl1:
I also have it and I have two things two say about it:

1. It works with the Glas screen protector and when combined with that I feel like I most likely have the best realistically possible protection for my phone at an acceptably thick level.

2. My kick stand broke off fairly easily not being that durable. The place where the kick stand was sometimes provides another usable way to grip the phone with your fingers.

What I'm also wondering is if I can some how modify that part of the case to put a fly grip there instead. What I'm hoping is that since that part of the case is recessed, I'm wondering if the fly grip was collapsed there if it would be flush?

PS I personally like the rubber outside material because it further prevents the phone from sliding out if my pocket by accident while still allowing me to take it out pretty easily when I want to.

+1 have had this case for over a week..only complaint is changing batteries is a pain in the butt its hard to open the case...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Yayodroid:
I got mine in white to match my white note and i actually really like it. it was 6 something shipped from amazon. the kickstand is a little sketchy but works. although it does add bulk to a phone that is large and rather slim. i figured i really couldnt go wrong with 6 bucks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] vikramdhani:
I think this case is going for $2.95 right now on amazon

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitalfoxPT:
Hi,

I recently bought a Windows Phone 7 Mozart for my mom!

To my surprise it didn't come with PT display language.

And quite simple, I just want to add the display language PT-PT to it...

But first a little bit of history,

I'm a complete noob at the Windows Phone World (iPhone user with jailbreak and Cydia for the last 3 years), meaning I know nothing about how the world of unlock and running 3rd party tools in Windows Phone works.

As a noob, my first attempt was just to update the phone to latest and greatest version, assuming PT display would be present...

I was wrong.. I Google about it, and found that if the Manufacturer didn't activate it, then it wouldn't show up, even when using 7.5.

I immediately restored it to the factory settings, going back to 7.0.7008, since as soon I started reading about the way unlocks and interop's work in Windows Phone World, you are advised to start as a OS old as possible...

So at present it is at:

OS version: 7.0.7008.0

Firm rev: 2250.09.12902.401

Hard rev: 0004

Bootloader: 5.12.2250.1

SOC: 2.2.5.0

I've read this thread:

[CAB] Official WP7 Updates List: 7.10.8107 + ALL LANGUAGES complete + OEM updates

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1306415

But quite honestly I have no idea how to even get to this stage, the unlocks and interops are completely new to me, and I have no ideao where to start...

Would someone be kind enough to tell me what steps should I take, since I'm only looking to add the PT language display!

Thank you :)

Hi all,

It's been about 15 months since I last used my Toshiba TG01 but my HTC Desire recently died and I'm back to the world of WM for now.

Anyway,

I used to make the occasional theme for Wisbar Advance Desktop (WAD) and thought I'd have a go at making an Ice Cream Sandwich Android based theme (portrait only) to use. It's fairly simple, but I like it, so I thought I'd share it.

Features:

- 3 Homescreens

- ICS clock widget

- Weather widget

- Calendar widget

- Pull-down notification bar (like android) giving latest SMS info, next appointment info as well as BT and WIFI toggles

To install:

1) extract the contents of the attached .rar archive

2) Install Mortscript

3) Go to \Program Files\Mortscript and tap the yellow mortscript icon

4) Copy the folder 'Message2Reg' to \Program Files

5) Copy the 'Messages' folder to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs

6) Install Ice cream sandwich.wadesktop (when asked where to, choose \Program Files\Lakeridge\Wisbar Advance Desktop\Themes)

To enable theme:

1) Ensure WAD is running

2) Tap and hold screen - choose 'change theme' from popup menu

3) If this theme is not listed, press menu then scan for themes

4) Once this theme is listed, tap it to highlight it, press menu then set as portrait theme

That should be all done.

Optionally, install Winstart to replace the usual WM start menu as I feel it provides a nicer experience and scrolls smoother etc.

Anyway, hope you like the theme.

Regards

[Windows Mobile Themes] mzobec:
Thanks bady
[Windows Mobile Themes] wildcardspv:
Hi there,

So I updated the theme a little bit, nothing major.

What's new?

1) Data connection indicator in status bar - grey shows connection available and goes blue when connection is in use (see pic 2). Unfortunately it cannot specify G/E/3G/H etc.

2) Calendar widget. Tap anywhere on the calender to launch the calendar app, tap the arrows to change months.

3) Weather widget. Save the attached medium weather icons wherever you want and go into WAD settings to direct the medium weather icon set to that filepath. Then change WAD settings to whatever location you want weather info for and add a weather icon (medium) size to the same page as the weather widget and drag the icon over the widget.

4) Added next calendar appointment info to pull-down notification bar.

I think that's everything

Regards

[Windows Mobile Themes] steff195:
This theme is just great!

I would use it on my i900 (WQVGA 240x400).. but since my phone is so old now... Is there a chance to get this theme on my resolution? Or I could simply adapt it myself, but I don't know how, except for the image files? :D I quite used wad2 until now, so I don't think it could be that hard.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Themes] wildcardspv:
I don't have a WQVGA device to test it on, so I couldn't really make the theme for your resolution but by all means, feel free to do so yourself :)

As the resolution is 50% of the size of WVGA, I would have thought that you could probably just take all the image files from the theme, make them 50% smaller then put them back on the phone, overwriting/in place of the original image files. After that it should just be a case of re-positioning everything so the spacing is ok for your screen.

Maybe it's not so simple, I don't really know, but good luck!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Vladimirus:
You said "only the features you need." What features would those be? You never did say on page 1 what features you put into it. And, yes, keep sharing the updates. :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] wildcardspv:
Good point!!

OP updated....

I actually fixed my HTC Desire yesterday so I don't think there will be any more updates to the theme. If there are, I'll definitely share them, however if anyone wants to take it and use/modify it in any way, that's more than fine - just mention it in credits.

Regards

wildcardspv.

So, it's back to the world of Android for you. Glad you got it fixed. Hate when my phone craps out as it has done a couple of times and only by sheer luck brought it back from a bricked state. Good luck! :)

Yes you can get the die-hard launcher on ICS/CM9 with a patched services.jar.

I give detailed instructions on how to do it.

People are having quite a lot of fun doing it themselves and learning a thing or 2 :D

But there are a few CM9 services.jars which should work.

Every CM9 services.jar that I've tried has worked on my device running CM9 for milestone.
