Do provide pics of these two cases if possible...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] twoashj:
Interesting! I always wanted to compared them, but I dont wanna buy those cases because I know i would never use them after. :D
[Galaxy S III Accessories] leicashot:
Will try take some pics later today....
[Galaxy S III Accessories] android2.0:
do these cases come with screen protectors or no?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] krabman:
My tough case did not come with a screen protector which is fine by me since I hate them. Bout all I can say is that I had the tough case on my sgs2 both of which I got when they came out (each respectively, the case followed by a week or two) and have no complaints about it. Phone lived through a few drops one of which was standing in the back of a pickup to unload stuff and it fell out of my pocket onto the pavement, some 6 or 7 feet I would guess. The phone was fine and the case showed no mark whatsoever. I have not had any issue with the rubber on the ends sticking to anything and it does not pick up lint. The phone is easy to get in and out of the case but still completely secure in it and wont come out unless you take it out. The case has no movement on the phone and feels solid. The texture on the case is just about perfect for grip and more has an undefineable "good" feel. The ports and all openings line up perfectly with the headphone and microusb ports being opened up a little extra to let larger based headphone jacks or usb cables fully insert to their base. Something I appreciate because I have some headphones that sometimes wont go in without trimming the case.

To be honest I only see one real downside to this case and its going to come down to preference. If you want your phone as slim as possible this case isn't for you. The lip around the top is probably near two millimeter by itself and while it fits like a glove you have the width of both the rubber and case across the bottom and sides. To someone like me its a win because I think modern phones are too thin and I would want to do something to bulk them up even if I didn't need the protection.

I considered the otterbox to try something new but did not. I have no beef with it and it seems like folks that have them like them but for me it was hard to get away from something I knew worked great and for which I had no gripes.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gee2012:
I have a Case Mate tough too and i realy like, i used it on all my phones i had.

Here are some pics http://www.case-mate.com/Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-Cases/Case-Mate-Samsung-Galaxy-S3-Tough-Cases.asp.

Never had the Otterbox but it looks clunkier and bigger, the Case Mate is a bit more elegant and has a good grip and feel.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ravin_Dave:
Do any owners of either case use them in car holders at all ? If so any chance of pics in the car holder ? Also, does the case interfere with the operation of NFC at all ?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] theeldergod:
Hey guys,

I have the CaseMate Though since last week when i got my S3.

Before that I had the Otterbox Commuter on my DHD and I must say, I like the CaseMate much better. It may does not protect the ports as already said, but it does feel very good in my hand.

Car mounting is not a problem for me, I have an universal holder in which it will fit in easily
[Galaxy S III Accessories] AceTrader:
I read a negative point about Tough case from you in another thread. Didn't see it mentioned here.

So is this problem a big thing or can i go with Tough case?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] egore93:
I have the Otterbox Commuter case on my S3 and I love it!! I had a defender case on my Tbolt and it added weight and size to it. I did not like it for that reason. The commuter case for the S3 fits just right and doesnt take away from the size that much. I have to believe this is a must have case for some protection for your phone.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] redsoxticket:
anyone know if the case mate tough fit the active holster because it does appear to be the same size as the commuter
[Galaxy S III Accessories] redsoxticket:
What are the dimensions of the case mate tough.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jpx2008:
Hi, just got my casemate tough for the galaxy s4. I've been using one with my galaxy s3 and am very pleasedwith it but, unfortunately the one for the s4 is a bit disappointing. Although the look is the same the lip around the screen isn't as deep and the rubber doesn't come over the metal border fully. The volume button only has the rubber over it without the plastic surrounding which makes it feel fragile. I'll be returning the case and have ordered an otterbox commuter, although I would've preferred the casemate. Hope it's helpful.

Any Sugestions?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jett1217:
when i did the google factory image restore it wiped everything now how do u put files on sd card without going into usb debugging
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Are these verified working restores?

If not... .img's over 2gigs cannot be restored.

This is an AOSP issue...

(TWRP allows you to enable compression...thus shrinking you're backups to smaller than 2gigs...but that's of no use to you currently).

A few users have also reported bootlooping after flashing something else...or nandroid restoring even without errors.

I had no such problems.

Flash stock images, if all else fails.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jett1217:
i have flashed 4.0.4 stock image

holy **** right as i was typing this my phone booted properly :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jamezelle:
Same thing happened to me on v2 and I was using TWRP. Backed up /data/media rebooted into boot loader and ran fastboot -w and it booted right up. Using cwm to be safe now

EDIT: MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP /DATA/MEDIA BEFORE DOING FASTBOOT -W OR ALL YOUR SDCARD DATA WILL BE GONE!!!

One more for the unconfirmed rumor mill. Posts are starting to show up on the Moto Customer Care site by users who are starting to receive the OTA from VZW:

https://forums.motorola.com/posts/358e9e30e9

I think this is absolutely true because I've been sitting on a virgin Maxx replacement. Last night I got tired of waiting for the OTA and ended up taking two hours to reinstall all of my apps, adjust all of my phone settings exactly like I like them, pair my BT devices, etc from scratch. Since I'll wipe my device and start over after the OTA -- just my preference to have a completely clean system to build on -- it absolutely figures the roll out will start as soon as I was done with it.

Sorry to all -- if I knew Moto and VZW was waiting on me to set up my phone before pushing the OTA, I would have done it last week :)

We Soak testers got this email yesterday.....

Hello again, everyone.

Later tonight we'll end our soak test. A phased roll out of the software will begin soon.

We are deeply grateful for the feedback and information provided. This was by far the largest soak we've ever attempted. We didn't really know what it would be like to have so many participants. We learned a lot and have already figured out some better ways to do things in the future. We appreciate you hanging in there as as we ploughed through all the information you provided.

To those of you who did not get the update or were unable to access the private community --your experience has also helped us find and correct issues. We'll be better next time based on your feedback. Please remember that the processes, information and communications shared during this soak test are confidential and not to be shared outside of this private community.

However, we do hope you will return to the public RAZR/RAZR Maxx community -- here and on other sites -- and help your fellow owners make the transition to Ice Cream Sandwich.

We will leave the private community up for a short time, but once you log out it will no longer be available to you. Soon we will close the threads to comments. We will continue to work with some of you and reach out if we need additional information.

Thank you so, so much. Hope to see you again in soaks. We rely on your energy, intelligence and enthusiasm.

I got the message in my notification bar around 5 yesterday. Then at 1130 pm last night i got the ota
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MichaelMcC:
Thanks, interesting that it still says downloading after 2 hours. I rebooted to see if that would reset something but still the says downloading. Maybe it doesn't like something. I'm rooted so maybe that's it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] racingglock35:
Doubt it is root. I had an update get hung up like that with my GB OTA on the X.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] myersw:
Am wondering if I got lucky somehow. Got MAXX in mail from Verizon last friday, 6/22. When looking at another tread about how to update to ICS I noticed the file name for the ICS update matches what I see on my MAXX for system version. 6.12.181.XT912.Verizon.en.US with kernel number 2.6.35.7. Did I get a phone that had ICS already loaded? Have not gotten any messages about updating it OTA.

If I go by the file name and the system version on the phone it would seem it is ICS already. Thoughts?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] WizeGuyDezignz:

So the 211 build will be the ota for sure now? I figured it would be delayed again reading some posts on bad battery life on the 211 build.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ExtraDan:
Hei guiseeee, guess wat, ics asia is ouuuuuut!

Neh, I knew you wouldn't believe it.

Ba dum tss
[Motorola Droid RAZR] WizeGuyDezignz:
It seems like 211 is the official, but there was an article linked in another thread that Moto is updating it for the battery life issue that was reported by many soak testers.

So I don't know if they are releasing 211 and then will follow it with a quick update, or if they are going to update 211 and then do the mass ota release.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] myersw:
Thanks for the info. That is what I figured. So just waiting with a lot of others.

--bill
[Motorola Droid RAZR] racingglock35:
We got another email after the soak test sending us to another survey. The survey was centered around battery life and not being able to switch between 4g and 3g. My guess is that they are gonna buff out the battery issue and add a CDMA only option.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] my2cents:
I wish they would also allow us to link the notification volume and ringer volume. Are you still filling out your survey? :D
[Motorola Droid RAZR] racingglock35:
No I finished it. I know what you are saying though.

I'm guessing another 2-3 weeks b4 i see ICS. This happened with the GB update when I had my old droid x. My wife will prob get the update sometime today she always gets the update b4 me....lol
[Motorola Droid RAZR] fix-this!:
FYI anybody who installed the leaked .211 already is on the ota and there is no need to install it again.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MichaelMcC:
My update started yesterday at 7:30 am then stalled saying download will continue later. 25 hours later I'm still waiting for it to continue. But it's sucking serious battery during this. Also Moto service has downloaded over 400 mb.

I think something is just wrong with it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] KEGer:
Got it at 4:00 am this morning. Did not mind being woke up in the middle of the night for that bit of news. (Knoxville, TN)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jiwengang:
hmmm... so for New York City Razr Maxx Verizon user will need to wait a bit more for the OTA?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Maegnum:
Unfortunatley, nothing yet for FIDO in Canada, however, I can say that getting the leaked .211 OTA from here: [http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1735853] was a HUGE bonus for me personally, and I'm sure other FIDO users will also apperciate the update.

I did take a couple of times to get it to work, and all from my end I believe. I just re-did the update this morning and was successful.

well, the difference with the new play store now is that you don't have to download a whole app to update, it only downloads the parts of the app that were updated, resulting in a lower file size needing to be downloaded. also, we're on 3.7.13 now. i think it was pushed out a few hours ago.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] JediSooner:
This might be a topic for a whole new thread, but figured I'd ask here first. What all goes in to the Play Store determining whether or not an app is compatible with the S3. I didn't see this near as much with my Note as I have with my S3. Even apps that you'd think were simple enough for all Android devices - Wallpaper Wizardrii and the UnitedHealthcare app, just to name a few. Would this JB update have anything to do with that? Until last night, I had the DPI on my S3 tweaked to 280... I set it back to 320, but still no luck with those same apps.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] Bingley:
Installed on Desire in UK. Looks exactly the same as my previously-installed one.

I wish they'd just life the carrier/country/device restrictions at least up 'tli the install point.

Hey guys :D I use the Cerberus app for my security and recovery app all in one and all works great aside from one issue I have been having. When I send commands to take a photo or screenshot the phone takes it and emails it to me. Over a wifi connection this works flawlessly, but over the network connection I get a 0byte JPEG image that is always corrupted.

So, I rooted my phone last night, and now I'm running into some slight "permission denied" issues.

In particular:

"File Access Problem Caution, unable to write files. This means your game progress can't be saved! Reason: Access to the path "/mnt/sdcard/Android/data/com.imangi.templerun/files/spaceholder.dat" is denied."

So, I jump onto the phone with adb shell, su, head down to that directory, and can't see anything wrong with permissions. However, I *also* can't create a file in there from the command line...

sh: cannot create test: Permission denied

any thoughts on how to fix this?

Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kgoroway:
Ouch

actually, its even worse...

I can't take pictures...it seems the camera app doesn't have "write" permissions to the DCIM folder, or something.

If I go to the folder, and rename it DCIMold, then take a photo, the new DCIM folder gets created, and the photo is fine...

but there are *NO* differences in file permissions between DCIMold and DCIM.

Anyone?
