[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eksasol:
It still takes better pictures than my Vibrant. Wozniak said when he shown photos he taken to his friends, they prefer the S3 photos over the 4S. Both the S3 and iPhone 5 camera are Sony sensor, the difference is in the DSP and how each company are tune them. Regardless no matter how nice iPhone takes pictures, the camera app have nearly zero options making it useless to me.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oowtfmang:
I'm not sure if my phone's digitizier is done or if something is loose. Anyways, how it started off was that the screen would only respond to my touch sometimes. I could tell that it wasn't working because the touch buttons wouldn't lighten up. If I slightly opened it, the buttons would light and the screen would work, but if I fully retracted the keyboard, the screen would be unresponsive. There was just a "sweet spot" where it would work. During this time, the trackpad was always functional so I could semi get around even if I couldn't touch the screen.

Fast forward two weeks and now that trick doesn't seem to work anymore. The screen is almost always unresponsive unless I get lucky and sometimes it'll work but it won't work 90% of the time. Only the physical buttons work now (on/off, click on the trackpad) but the actual trackpad doesn't work anymore. My phone is almost fully dead and I won't be able to get a new phone until December. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cb2367:
I would like to apply the silent camera modification. I just got the phone, so right now everything is stock. I read through the discussion thread regarding this modification, but it isn't clear if rooting the phone is required. From reading the thread, the modification is applied through CWM. It is also stated in the thread that someone was able to simply download this modification to their SD card and then boot into the recovery and apply it.

I applied a similar modification to my previous phone (Samsung Epic), but I know that I didn't have to root the phone. I did apply a custom recovery so that I could fix the GPS. What I'm looking for are the steps to apply the silent camera modification to the Galaxy SIII without needing to root the phone. Can anyone help me out?

Piel Frama and Noreve both show links for Galaxy Note 2 cases coming. I'm probably going to go with the Piel Frama because the one I had for the original Note was very high quality soft leather and looked great. Hopefully it's sooner than later as I'm waiting for the case I want before buying my Note. It's disappointing that Samsung is so late coming out with their Note 2 accessories or I'd just get one of the official white flip covers to tied me over.

anyone tried a case like this

http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page...Galaxy+Note+II+GT-N7100&cat=Cases&skuno=94947

Has anyone used a case from these guys before, or a similar style???

I have always used a leather belt clip cases with my phones. Currently have a sensation and think the vertical cases are the best, but wonder about the length on the note 2 when sitting say in a car seat, if the bottom will push against the seat or the top stick me in the side????

I saw a Pdair case (had one for the HD2) but it did not clip over the top, after some time it loosened up and my HD2 used to bounce out and skim across roads (they were built tough - the phones).

---------- Post added at 06:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

i looked at the specs the note 2 is only 4mm longer than the note 1. would i be right in saying it should fit note 1 cases. guess it depends on the tolerances of the case manufacturer.

really want a vertical belt clip case with a top flap - do not want it bouncing out and road skimming.:victory:

I'm looking for something like this. It appears to have the plastic back cover like an otterbox. It looks like it even covers the corners better than most of this type. And as a plus it can be used as a stand.

I'm just not sure about the magnet? Would a magnet ruin the screen? As in move particles and distort?

Also not sure about the seller/description. Broken English. ..

screen protector

As a matter of fact, yes, that's a Spigen screen protector. At the time, it was the only one I saw online, and I wanted something, anything, to protect the big screen. When it arrived, I noticed that the fit was awkward, as compared to the previous screen protectors for my Galaxy S2, which covered everything.

Now, don't get me wrong, it covers the main visual screen, but it doesn't cover the entire front glass. It's a step in the right direction, but not there yet. I'm waiting it out in hopes that the screen protector that, hopefully, comes with the Seidio Active is any better. Then again, I don't recall them including a protector...I think that was Trident...ah crap...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] RaptorMD:
So how much of the display isn't covered by the Spigen screen protector. It seems like the maybe a 1/4" of it by your photo?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] wekebu:
I ordered one yesterday from them. The Ultra Crystal. I had this exact protector on a previous phone and loved it.

http://www.spigen.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2-screen-protector-steinheil-series.html

I find that a good test of a screen protector is what it looks like when you go to remove it after a year or so. When I pulled off the Spigen, it was still crystal clear. Not so with my previous protector which was a 'military' grade material. It literally was yellow.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jromankvcc:
It depends how you place it, but in my case, there's like maybe 2 millimeters on each side and bottom and about 3 up top.

The one thingbi dont get about the flip cases is what happens to the flap when you are on the phone? Does it fold back over the back of the phone? Is that comfortable?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] planetbeen:
I have the oem flip case and yes it does fold back. I think it's pretty comfortable but lately I've been using it closed. It has a cutout for the earpiece so you can just use it closed. Nice for me because i came from a g2 and had lots of problems with "face hang ups".

Keeps the screen from getting smudged from my gross face :P

Then again..I'm wondering what will happen in the summer if i use it closed and get makeup on it. (Sweat yuck!)

Might be easier to clean the glass off in that situation...

For now i am happily using it closed.

I am disappointed to say, that the Spigen Ultra Crystal does not fit. It's too small. The packaging said it was for the Note 2. My previous two Spigen's fit to the edges. I've emailed them. Not happy at all.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] DMax99:
There is no HARD protecters that can fit all the way to the edge as the screen of the Note 2 is slightly curved near the edges like the S3.

My Ultra Crystal is GREAT! Nearly one month now and there is still no scratches on the screen. It is AWESOME compared to 2 other cheap ones I bought from eBay, which were scratched after a few days after I first got my Note 2.

Otterbox Defender for Note II

Hi all.

I'm new to this (Note II) forum after some good years with SonyEriccson Xperia X1, Nokia 5800 and Motorola Atrix 4G.

I'm planning to buy Note II in a week-two.

But when looking for a protective case I found that Otterbox Defender is "coming soon". I will definetly buy this top protective case when available.

For now I need your advice. Which hard case for N7100 is most protective now?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Chuck_IV:
I was concerned about this too but loved the fact that the case added virtually no thickness to the phone, since it totally replaces the battery cover.

However, as PlanetBeam said, it bends back nicely and makes the phone pretty comfortable to hold that way. I'll be curious to see how the "hinge" holds up over time tho. I did buy mine from an AT&T store(since none of my 6 or so Sprint stores around me had any), so as long as I present my receipt at the store, I have a 1 year replacement warranty on it, in store.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Narhim:
I am quite happy with my OEM flip cover. It does what it promises very good.

What I am missing however is a possibility to protect the edges of the phone.

Right now I am frantically searching for a back / edge cover that is able to be used with the OEM flip cover...

Any ideas?

Wasn't able to find the OME one in the purple color anywhere else, however when I try to check out neither the option of Paypal or Visa works. For example when choosing Visa it give the error: "Transaction not allowed. Wrong merchant email address!" Something similar is given for Paypal.

Has anyone ever used this site or have found these cases some where else?

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] planetbeen:
Well there is a thread around here showing how a guy trimmed the oem protective cover + to fit over the oem flip cover. He cut a notch out of the left side for the "hinge" to allow it to fold back over the back.

I checked a the kiosk in one of the malls here and she had a bunch of the tpu cases in stock so i was able to actually try a few on my phone. I put them on over the flip cover and can see that it should work to cut the left side down some and they would still stay on. They actually fit over the flip cover but the left side is funky.

The problem is she charges too much (probably $18 - $20) for me to buy one there and chop it up and possibly hate it. They are the same cases I'm seeing here from China etc. for less than $10.

I need to just order a cheap one and try it myself. It might look too ghetto in person but the pics on the other thread didn't look too bad to me.
