I am a spammer? Please dont tell em your calling me a spammer? I am posting a thread about a case. Thats all. If you dont like it leave. I thought it was cool looking so I posted a thread. I have been part of XDA now for 2 years. My activity has been minimal but when I actually think to post something I get called a spammer?

Not cool man!

I will post pictures when I get it I ordered the See through and Baby Blue.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] LouZiffer:
The post he's talking about is now deleted, and the poster is gone. These folks aren't necessarily talking about you. This same case has been posted multiple times by actual spammers, and your topic states "Best TPU Case so far" though you don't have it yet. By your activity on the site it's obvious to me that you're not spamming, though.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] ASSMO:
Oh ok, Sorry for my ignorance. I didnt know. But I will post pictures when I get it. I shouldnt have posted about this and named it best TPU case when i havent even received it yet. Sorry again community. My bad lol. Also I checked the first couple pages and didnt see a post about this case so I said Ill do it myself then lol.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Troute:
This ^ thank you Mr Ziffer :)
[Nexus 7 Accessories] proud_whovian:
Has anyone bought and received this case yet??
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Hwaiting:
My case finally came after 3 weeks. I have a Nillkin case and screen protector on my Galaxy Nexus so I was expecting the same type of quality.

It's a great case and exactly what I expected.

The screen protector is cut very, very close so if you don't get it spot on, you will be getting bubbles anywhere it goes over the edge. I got it virtually perfect but had minor bubbling over one corner and the anal person in me just couldn't stand it so I simply sliced a little bit off with a pair of scissors and now it's perfect. It comes with a cloth and also a large sticker to remove dust particles stuck between the protector and screen during installation.

The case itself is glossy but tactile offering a good grip. It's neither particularly a fingerprint or dust magnet which is good. The 2 long edges are textured which I thought from the picture would have added more grip but it's actually the opposite. That's actually a good thing though allowing your fingers and hands to slide along the edges with ease when interacting with the screen instead of getting stuck. The fit is snug and does not cause the screen protector to lift up. The cutouts are big (for all the various holes plus the power/volume) so it should be no problem with various headphones or USB wires. It doesn't add much thickness to the device but still offers enough protection from scratches and minor bumps.

I could add pics but the ones from the website are accurate and do the case justice: http://www.nillkin.com/En/ProductView.asp?ID=2875

I got the black one and it looks really nice, especially from the front straight on as the case covers the silver bezel making the entire front all black. I definitely recommend this case. If anyone has any questions, I'll be happy to answer any.

Will update when it arrives. As long as its tight I don't care.

The black one looks nice!

i have one for my gnex. it is awesome....

would have liked a nillkin for the n7, but i'd rather have a folio type for standing and smart cover...
[Nexus 7 Accessories] proud_whovian:
your pictures made me like the way it looks more than the stock ones :laugh:
[Nexus 7 Accessories] konfusius:
I also have a solid black Nillkin case on it's way ... hope it arrives soon!

In comparison to the "usual" S- / X-type TPU cases, the black Nillkin case looks refreshingly different & way more "sexy" (imho)
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Mwinggg:
ordered a grey before this thread started, will pick it up tmr since it arrived in post office already

picked grey over black coz its semi transparent so it shows the nexus branding, agree i would pay more if theres no nillkin logo
[Nexus 7 Accessories] ASSMO:
Still waiting on my 2 to come in.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] gogol:
For who already owned, how do you feel the screen protector?

Good for touch?

Easy to put on?

Clarity?

I am wondering if I have to buy a good brand screen protector ... Instead using the one from Nillkin.

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Hwaiting:
The screen protector is great. I have been using one on my galaxy nexus since January and it has no scratches and looks like it was on day one. The nexus 7 screen protector is exactly the same. Its got good clarity and I don't even notice it. I like nillkin products and wouldn't hesitate to buy the screen protector from them if I had not gotten it with the case already. I had a cheap eBay one in the interim and that was garbage. I don't think you would have to buy another one. Just use this one. I don't know how it compares to SGP as I've never tried them before but its definitely not like eBay crap. Its quality.

It took me several tries to get the screen protector on perfect because its virtually the same size as the screen. If its a little off, it will bubble where it goes over the edge of the screen. I had to apply and then peel off and reapply again. Just have some patience.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] thephantom:
Good thing i chanced upon this thread. Using the same case for my Nexus 7. Black one as well. Was supposed to get the smoked but I prefer dark colors so I settled for the black. Not a fan of bi-fold so I got it. So far so good and the holes are perfect.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] bl1nky:
nice case op, looks very similar to my exact X case, am well impressed with mine :D
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Warren_Orange:
Hi all.

I received my Nillkin case yesterday. This is a really really nice skin, but I have one problem. The bottom of the case is saggy. Due to it being posted snail mail I think it has been crushed in the post. Considering I paid top money for the skin I think I'm going to request a replacement from the seller.

Another thing was the case didn't come in a box like the video the OP made. It was just in a sealed plastic bag, which was placed in a padded envelope. Maybe a plastic clear box like the OP's came in might of protected it more, who knows.

Here is the saggy bottom. I mean its minor but its really annoying me. I want it flush and tight all the way around.

See the bottom is sagging

General pic

Its a top case, just a shame about the shipping damage.

I will contacted the seller now and see what he says.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Tomatoes8:
Nilkin makes great hard snap on cases. I had one for the Xperia S and Galaxy S3. Both were great. Not sure how their tpu cases are but I trust them from past experiences.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] ben805:
soak the bottom part into hot water for few minutes then dunk it into cold water, should be able to reshape it.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] poondog:
Either the hot water, or just leave it for a few days, mine was a bit like that and now it is fine

The case is a perfect fit, bought it for $11 from ebay, came in the proper box and everything. I was surprised by the quality, although for $11 a tpu case better be good lol

Not sure if its deliberate, but the branding on the back looks good above the asus logo
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Warren_Orange:
Cool. How hot should the water be?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] infinityhombre:
Just got mine today. Love the case but one dumb question. What the hell is the giant blue sticker for? Removing dust when applying the screen protector?

Edit: I'm dumb. That's exactly what its for finally found it on their site pretty cool idea. I've always just used tape after I applied one to remove any dust that was left after the microfiber. This just makes sure none is left behind before application if anyone else is wondering.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] spooke:
Do you have any pictures of it? Where did you buy it from and how long did it take to arrive?

Edit - Sorry I thought this was the Nillkin Leather Case thread.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
Three days ago, my computer drew its last breath. Knowing I would not be able to get another for a little while, I decided to make due with what I had......My Skyrocket. Here is what I did, with some pics.

Let me start by saying that my case is a cover/belt holster combo with a kickstand. Next, I bought an OTG cable from Amazon for around $5. There are some much cheaper, but I hate waiting the shipping time from Hong Kong. Then at Wal-Mart, I picked up an Onn USB 2.0 hub for $11, and an Onn wireless keyboard on clearance for $7. So for my project, I only spent $23. Everything else I already had lying around. The Hub and the OTG cable are attatched to the back of my case by a velcro type material, and are removed easily, but do not fall off. Very sturdy stuff. Oddly enough, with these on the back, the phone fits even better in my hand. It actually makes contact with my palm and gives me a much more comfortable grip. They stay on there at all times, except when in the kickstand and deployed.

Now, I needed a desktop replacement. My choice was an app in the market called Complete Linux Installer. I downloaded the Ubuntu large Image and Backtrack. I have placed Backtrack on my 4Gb thumbdrive, and Ubuntu on the 8 Gb thumbdrive. So basically, I am using no memory on my internal or external sd. Here and some pics of the setup.

Now, I have a portable linux desktop wherever I go. It's just something I threw together and wanted to share. Maybe give some folks an idea of what you can do with some of the accessories you can get for this device. Thanks for reading!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wrogerw:
That's really using your head. Does the SR do well with performance on Linux? Also, I'd bet all that would fit in an Altoids tin or other such small box.

Why haven't you considered a tablet for desktop replacement? with a bluetooth keyboard you can't go wrong and more than enough apps IMO to fulfill ones desktop needs :)

Im a fan of bigger screens hence my suggestion.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lingowistico:
I'm also a fan of bigger screens, so here's another suggestion:

why not connect the phone to a tv/monitor through hdmi and use a bluetooth mouse & keyboard set up?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjVVM4wSN2o&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Look at this guy. Bluetooth mouse and keyboard + hdmi connected all at the same time. Now that's a portable computer. Except he does it on a Note. Can it be done on our phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] acejavelin:
Nice... pretty cool, but I would have gone differently.

I don't know about where you are, but older laptops in the late P4 to Core2/Core2Duo era go for well under $100 on Craigslist or at the state surplus office (which are usually 3-5 yr old HP Business class machines out on rotation, $80 each with A/C charger), add Kubuntu or your favorite flavor of Linux or find an OEM Windows CD and you are good to go and performance wise would be much better than using the SR as a PC.

Still cool... not knocking you, very innovative.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lingowistico:
Oh man, lol. It's not mine so you can't really knock me :p

OP wanted to show off his skyrocket Portable Computer idea, I just added how I think it would be better implemented.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] acejavelin:
Don't misunderstand, I am not knocking anyone... it's cool and really awesome actually, just offering some ideas as alternatives.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lingowistico:
Yes I can see that you're coming in peace. I'm just saying I think this thread is about skyrockets turned in to PCs as opposed to PCs turned in to PCs. Do you get my point? :crying: :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] acejavelin:
Yeah... Gotcha... It's all good, sorry for hijacking a but, when I read the first post I thought the guy tried to put this together to replace a laptop because he didn't have any money, my bad for not reading more.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
Wow, this was a long time ago. Since then, I just use my Nexus 7 with ubuntu desktop, mouse, kb and 2 ext hdds. Still not bought another pc. Since I have the fastboot and adb binaries for arm, I really have no need. Gave the SR to my oldest daughter and now use my S4. Glad to see this caught some interest.

Hey,

Lately I noticed that there is bad contact between 3 pins on my charger and on GN. Is there any way how to find if problem is on charger or device? I don't wanna risk paying for repair fees. I think its most probably problem on the device because on the charger they look like I bought it today. Sorry can't post photos because I don't have right now camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
The only thing you can do is try another Micro USB cord [one that you know works].

I'd also try plugging in the USB port into something else.

If you're having so much trouble that you can't grab any data off of the SD card or flash stock images you can follow THIS guide.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adsamcik:
My charger is just fine even the cable. Problem is somewhere in contact between these pins. I don't rly know what flashing stock images have to do with this issue, anyway I have stock rom (from Google not Samsung). but still thanks for some response, I guess I'll have to risk it that issue is on the phone and that they will find it.

Is there any way to change it like Paranoid Android rom? I could just change it in the option settings easily.

But I don't find it in asylum's rom. If i'm not wrong, it is using 240dpi.

Am I able to disable or enable on screen soft keys?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AA1973:
Download Romtoolbox Lite or Pro and use the build.prop editor or tweaker and set ro.sf.lcd_density to your liking.

213, 240, 320 ...

Otherwise manually by editing build.prop with root explorer.

Mount system RW.

EDIT build.prop

Change the following line

ro.sf.lcd_density=213 (tablet mode)

Add another line saying

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 (softkeys)

Close and save

Mount system read only.

Reboot.

Hi, I have bought asphalt 7 and for the most part I'm impressed with its graphics and game play, however on certain tracks its kind of laggy.

I know some games aren't optimized for Android half as much as they are for ios Mostly due to the fact that there is so much hardware that Android runs on, but has anyone seriously got this game running well on their sgs3?

I'm running fox hound 1.43 using siyah kernel @1.4ghz. Governor is on demand. I'll try some others and update this post but at the moment it's laggy on London and another level where you drive through a building (not sure on its name)

If anyone has any tweaks and or tips on getting the most notable difference of performance out of this game then let men know please.

Cheers.

Omega is a great rom but towards the end of 9 i was getting lag's so i switched to foxhound and it's been very good indeed, it's only since i've noticed this lag on one game that i've debated changing rom's, personally i think that the developers of android games should work bloody harder, it's just like the pc / console war all over again, and i'm on the PC side of that too.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] zombiezoom:
I was following the instructions HERE then I had that famous error that no one apparently has a solution for it anywhere!

So anyway straight to the point it, it was some "libusb" components missing. Thanks to AdamOutler in this THREAD I was able to figure it out.

I have Xubuntu 12.04 installed and found out that libusb was in fact installed but it appears to be for some reason - I am not that expert anyway - Heimdall wasn't able to connect to the tablet.

Solution: [should work on Ubuntu, any Ubuntu based OS like Xubuntu, Kubuntu, etc or any other Linux distribution]

First of all for those who doesn't know how to install it in the first place, CLICK HERE! and download both Command Line and Frontend versions because you have to first install the Command Line version in order to make the Frontend version work :)

1. Now find Synaptic Package Manager, usually in Menu>System>Synaptic Package Manager

If not then you have to install it via Ubuntu Software Center.

2. Now use the Quick filter and search for "libusb" as in the screenshot

You have to make sure the following packages are installed:

libusb-ocaml

libdevice-usb-perl

libhpmud0 (not sure if it's essential)

libusb-0.1-4

libusb-1.0-0

libusb-1.0-0-dev

libusb-dev

libusbprog-dev

libusb++0.1-4c2

libusb++-dev

libusbtc08-1

libusbmuxd-dev

libusbprog0

libusbmuxd1

If you found a package "ticked" then it's installed, otherwise you have to tick it then choose "Mark for installation".

When you finish marking packages, click on Apply to....APPLY! xD

Now restart your computer and now you'd be able to use Heimdall without any problem :)
