I bought a kick stand case off eBay for my vibrant. big mistake! the case itself didn't cover the front and the plastic was gimmick. my phone was completely blowed in the front and the amoled (not glass) cracked. not repeating the same mistake and definitely buying a silicone and hard plastic case that actually cover the front like otter box
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
The Otterbox for this phone will not cover the whole front, just a FYI
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Randomacts:
Not even the defender?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zombie112:

"Built-in screen protector prevents scratches while retaining the touch sensitivity of the screen."

So I guess there is some kind of protection for the front side, but it cannot be too thick as it has to retain the ability to use the touchscreen. I guess if you drop it to any sharper object which reaches over the few-millimeter outer casing, your screen will shatter like any other. The third picture at their site shows the screen protector.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
Forgot about the defender....its got a built in protector as listed above.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kulzboy:
yea I know that what I'm looking for is something made out of silicone that raises the screen up to avoid direct contact with a phone. I don't want a flip case as it would get it my way while typing
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Bhawk:
Well the added protection to your screen is basically provided by the soft silicone. It is a damper and it will absorb most of the energy from the drop before it ever gets to the phone itself. Unless you get the screen directly hitting a corner or a stone you will be fine probably. I have a commuter in my SGS II and it is great, I've had it for a year almost and I've dropped my phone maybe a couple of times and there is not a single scratch/broken screen. The defender is way too much and it will add a lot of bulk to the phone.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
I got u....the TPU case is like that, as is the commuter....but the protection offered by the otterbox is second to none
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kulzboy:
yea coming from the first sgs I seriously miss the charging port door but looks like otterbox got what I needed
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
That's one of the things I like about the Otterbox too, none of the ports are exposed unless they're in use. Would be nice if they could find a way to somehow put these things on a diet w/o sacrificing protection but I guess it's a very small price to pay ensure the safety of your $600 device that contains information that is priceless
[Galaxy S III Accessories] nYbEe:
Ill definitely buy the Defender. I have used my Commuter for S1 for almost 2 years. My personality is Military Grade. I need one for my phone
[Galaxy S III Accessories] LLStarks:
How bulky is the Commuter in general compared to TPU and the Defender?

I'm really just looking for a case that has enough of a lip covering the front edge to protect the screen from face-down impacts.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] SlimJ87D:
They have dimensions in the description.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mocheesehead:
How does the case come off for battery changes? I am thinking the commuter as well!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Gadgetz:
Both the Commuter and Defender and pretty equally bulky, much more bulky than any TPU case. Both have sufficient lip on the front to allow for setting your phone face down w/o fear of damaging it. Matter of fact, I ONLY set my A2 face down in it's Commuter. The main difference between the Commuter and Defender are the Defender is fully enclosed for 100% protection and comes with a belt clip holder.

It can be kind of a pain, surely not something you're gonna want too do often due to increasing the chance of stretching out the silicone sleeve. But the hard plastic shell can be "unclipped" from the silicone sleeve to allow for this.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] monkeyhihi:
That's my issue with getting an otterbox as well... I'd be taking the case off at least once a day (maybe even two sometimes!) and I know my brother's iphone Otterbox is looking pretty skanky from him taking it off a bunch too.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] raceface88:
Considered getting one but went for the Casemate Tough Case instead. Looks better IMO.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] WuTangWindu:
Anyone find any place to buy them yet?

Sent from my SCH-I510
[Galaxy S III Accessories] LowSky:
Amazon has them though another seller for pre-order

I decided to bite the bullet and order one today so I have it when its released from Verizon.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] WuTangWindu:
Hey thanks for the info. I just did the same. I got the black one. I am all so waiting for Verizon and wanna make sure I have no chance to drop it. The case also comes with a screen protector.

Sent from my SCH-I510
[Galaxy S III Accessories] LowSky:
no problem. I dont really see the point of a screen protector these days, i just want the drop protection. In my use the screens screw with the touch screen and make the screen hazy, especially the more expensive ones like Zagg. My Droid Incredible is two years old only used a screen protector for about 3 months, and since then its been in the same pocket as my keys and loose change and not one scratch. i ordered a rock quicksand case too to see what I like better. I'll probably use that one more. I like having an extra protective case for when I go riding.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] AtlanM87:
Just got an Otterbox notification that the Commuter is now available. Ordered one.

I had one for the GS2 and liked it because of less bulk and weight.

Did not use a screen protector on my GS2 and won't for now on the GS3
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Skow3n:
Anything to report on this baby? :silly:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] NatTheCat:
Amazon shipping to UK today, as of pre order confirmation received.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] noblewolf:
I bought the commuter but the keys are too hard to press and needs serious effort to wake up the phone. So i cut a "wedge-size" on the both sides of the base of the button rubbers, leaving just the top and bottom part to hold the rubber in place. I did it on both the power and volume buttons, to accommodate the downwards movement of the button..

Now it presses just nicely... :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ApophisXP:
Same here, Had mine for a while and protected my S2 perfectly. Ordered a Defender for my S3 now though. Since I fancy that sexy belt clip.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lunercrab:
I got my commuter today. Fits nice and tight. This sucker ain't coming off which kinda sucks if I wanna change the battery but its all good :D. Phone feels nice and protected now. I personally have no issues with the volume/power buttons. To me they seem easier to press on mine with the rubber but that's just my opinion
[Galaxy S III Accessories] james0890:
Would you mind posting some pics with the phone and case (or perhaps a video if you're feeling really generous :D) please? I haven't seen anything other than stock photos of what it looks like on.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] NatTheCat:
1st Post Wow 2 Years of watching and learning.

I second the pics and video
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lunercrab:
Sure will do when I get outta work
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lunercrab:
OK here's a coupke quick pics. I originally wanted the black/green case but they were delayed til mid July so I settled on black for now.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] micromania:
How much depth does it add?

The otterbox website doesnt include dimensions, but they usually include an insert with the dimensions.

Can you please let us know the dimensions?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] imwatchingu:
anybody using it in different colors? :D
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ilangoadigal:
Does it feel like the plastic back might ever break or snap?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Lonski:
+1 Fits nice and tight without adding to much bulk. Also has a nice grippy texture to it making it easy to keep hold of. Thats the only thing i hated with my Otterbox on my DHD, it was slippy to hold.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Blind_Butcher:
Is there a horizontal leather cover with belt clip, which can hold SGS3 in Otterbox commuter?

Because sometimes i need SGS3 in pocket, sometimes on belt.

It is silly to change the cover always.

Otterbox defender looks very bulky for me.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] bibia:
I planned to buy defender from Otterbox website.. but the shipping cost really expensive to my country (Indonesia). It'll cost me total around $75-80.

I hope I can get it cheaper asap from local store here..
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Oli2k:
My sample turned up today so i'm going to be doing a video review on it tonight.

After a quick look it's basically the same as the Trident case I'm using at the moment
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lunercrab:
Got a decal to livin up the black case a little. Not sure how long it'll last but love the look :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] sputnik69:
I've got a question for anyone who has got OC.

Is it possible that commuter because of stiff (don't know how to call this) power button and volume buttons can damage buttons on the phone?

Hope that you will understand what I am talking about.

p.s.

sorry 4 my English
[Galaxy S III Accessories] otterboxfan4l:
No it won't , I have the commuter and it won't hurt the buttons .. the case its self is a little stiff but the more you use it the better it gets :)

Sent From My Samsung Galaxy S3
[Galaxy S III Accessories] sputnik69:
Thx for answer.

I've got one more questiuon.

I saw a few posts that say that OC is so tight that the phone is restarting.

Have you (or anybody) ever got similar problem?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] RTBee:
It may when putting the case on or off, because as you said, it is a very tight fit. But once on there are no problems. I just turn the phone off before putting it on, taking it off is not as much of an issue.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] panamamike:
If I do the downgrade using Flashtool, will the phone retain the "data" and "apps"?

When I say data I mean photos and files.

I see an option for wiping data is check off, I'm assuming this is temporary O/S stuff.

Regards,

Mike
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dumraden:
If you're reverting from ICS, then I would suggest you did a full wipe, since ICS apps arent (in their majority) compatible with GB
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
Pictures, documents and stuff like that are stored on your SD card, so you're not going to lose them.

Personal data stored on the phone is: contacts, SMSs/MMSs, preferences and settings for your apps. And nothing more, if I'm correct. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] panamamike:
If I uncheck the data checkbox will that work? Also, how about apps. that have been moved to SD? I don't know if .58 supports that.

Regards,

MIke
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
If you uncheck "wipe data" in flashtool, you won't erase personal data. It should be fine, as far as I know :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] panamamike:
Looks like the answer is no, it's not possible to preserve the data. There are some of these personal data things that look to be phone settings that interfere with operation after a new ROM is installed. I ended up getting many errors trying to preserve my data on the phone.

Mike
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
My, my... you're right, don't know what I was thinking when I said that... I obviously forgot that you were going to downgrade... sorry man, it was totally my fault :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] panamamike:
No need to apologize, guess that's what happens when you try stuff that isn't fully baked :)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] cipri92:
I have a BIG problem. Some tutorials mention to wipe data/cache before flashing, after selecting the desired ROM. Well, some of (eg.) Xperia Arc LT15 ROMs do not show up completely in FlashTool. After I chosed a ROM, the ROM's files do not show up in the middle column and ther's no "Wipe data" and "Wipe cacha" options. Could Flashtool be the problem?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] justmpm:
What device are you trying to do this with and which ROMs? Just asking because this isn't an Arc forum and it sounds like you are flashing Arc Roms and even on a device as close as the Ray this is going to cause some problems.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] cipri92:
Xperia Arc LT15i with an official 4.0.2.A.0.42 GB. All FTFs I could find aren't showing up completely.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] justmpm:
Well....um.....I am sure that there are people here that can help you because all the 2011 xperias are similar, but you will probably get much better information if you ask in one of the arc specific forums/threads. You have posted into the Mini, Mini Pro, Active, Ray, Live with Walkman section.

Here is the Arc thread for flashtool: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1000012

Here is the Q&A forum for the ARC: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1182

It is probably best if you use the "search this thread" or "search this forum" box before you post your question because if it is a common problem, you will find your answer much quicker.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] cipri92:
OK, thanks for the advice! Cheers!
[HTC One X] DeniCevap:
As I am living in Sweden, I sent a E-Mail to them asking what the stakes are in Sweden.

I asked them what would void the warranty, 'Bootloader Unlock' & 'S-Off' or if you only install a custom ROM.

Edit:

EDIT2: Ok here is the E-Mail I sent and then the reply I got.

By the way, this is translated from Swedish to English.

This is the SHORT answer I got.

Now this is not good for me okay? I wrote a god damn paper for the support and all I got was SHORT answer and nothing about if all methods voids it.

So here my reply again.

EDIT3: Finally I got an answer WHY the warranty voids.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Damoedge:
Hi all.

Has anyone any issues when wifi reconects to the network??

Im using internet commander to control wifi and save battery but when the screen turns on it takes about 20 to 30 seconds to reconect, it seems slow obtaining ip address, iv checked it without internet commander and the same thing.

I remember the desire was more or less instant when reconnecting.

So is it normal? anyone the same as me?

any advice ideas grateful

thanks

I only use WIFI at home so when its on its on no sleep(from the advanced wifi settings), ie its on 100% of the time.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pimpmaneaton:
Hey everyone I sure that you may have by now seen the theme I have been working on for several different tablets, but now I am incorporating it into my own rom with the new Aroma Installer to give you custom options during the install process. This rom is based on twa-priv's cm10/sgt7 rom.

V3.6

Instructions.

1-Download zip from either link above or search for EyeCandy on Goo Manager app and download from there.

2-Reboot into recovery

3- Flash zip--You may have to flash twice, looking into why this is for some users.

4- Reboot- Remember to wipe cache and dalvik cache before hand.

5- Enjoy and don't forget to thank you devs.

Bugs:

SystemUI will force close in tablet mode if you try to access the extended notifications, hope to have this worked out by next release.

Credits:

HASHCODE: For your kernel, roms, and just sheer dedication to this device

TWA_PRIV: For the base rom that I use, because he just makes one heck of a nice build.

AMARULZ: For Aroma Installer, what a great idea and useful installation method.

VEEMAN: For the bootanimation that is included in EyeCandy Rom

Well I can now see why there are yet any roms using Aroma, the touch screen is a real pain in the rear with this device. Aroma calibrate tool numbers do not work with the touch screen.

Sorry guys jump the gun, I can get the bottoms buttons to partitaly work, but rest of screen in unresponsive.

The data that aroma is giving back is not really making sense. Should not need to be that large of numbers.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] barrmulio:
would using the newer kernel help at all? hash made a note of some touchscreen optimizations to improve sensitivity and responsiveness
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
those were the issues I was having. I could never get the touch to work correctly. calibration from aromaFM wouldn't help either, even tho it works perfect with aromaFM.

even the calibration.zip gives numbers that just don't work once implemented.

Unfortunately no, the kernel for recovery is separate from the one that runs with os. Ran many different configurations last night with no success. Was working with hyper runner for a min but had a family emergency pop up. Will be on #aroma on freenode pretty much all day at work. If you have some ideas to throw at me, pop on in and speak your mind. Hopefully get this knocked out today.

I wanted to see what the inverted/themed Gmail looked like, so for starters I pulled the Gmail.apk out of the ROM zip and pushed it to /system/app in my current gedeROM installation (i FC, cleared data, uninstalled the Gmail I had in /data/app there).

It looks nice, but the New Message composition window is too wide to fit on the screen when the device is held in portrait orientation, and cuts off several characters from the left/right edges.

Anyone else seeing this on the EyeCandy ROM itself?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TahrirSquare:
Any chance we can get some screen Shots? Thanks

Anyone know how I can fix this or is this a build prop issue? It worked fine with GedeROM as that's what I was running when I bought that app.

Do you update the Rom too?

I just finally got around to making the jump from 1.1 to 2.0 (been busy playing wirh official ICS on my SII) and even without the v6 script installed it is much more crisp and snappy! This a very enjoyable ROM for the Kindle Fire...it just does everything a good ROM should.
