This is just a review of the ebay metal flip back replacement for the Note II.

Impression:

1. Solid build with a very nice brushed metal finish. Definitely gave the phone a higher quality feel over the plastic back.

2. Has built in NFC, but I haven't tested it's functionality.

3. Adds 40g of weight.

4. In my room, with the OEM back my signal averaged -70dBm, with this case my signal averaged -73dBm.

5. Does fit inside generic neoprene case, also from ebay.

Really interested in if nfc works. ..:cool:

Ditto
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ionutzm05:
Please confirm if NFC works. I want to buy one ASAP. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Vegas863:
I gotta say, this definitely looks to be one of the nicer flip cases I've seen so far. If the NFC works as well as the stock cover, I may have to pick one up, too.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] DMax99:
Really weird that it has a built in nfc because nfc on my silver metal back cover does NOT work. Somehow the metal coating must interfere with the signal.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Hayaa:
See on ebay seller page :/
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] conflict0102:
Confirmation: I have tested NFC and it does

not

work.

I just ordered mine, full black. Hope to get it before Christmas :)!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] iflip:
The illustrations show that there is absolutely no nfc antenna in the interior shell of the case. Detach your oem Battery door and look at the antenna. The sellers are showing you the entire case from front to back. Buy at your own discretion.

This is how it looks like when it appears. If it was HW issue it would not be visible on screenshot right?

I am wondering if I still need to get the Developer Edition of the SIII to be able to root/unlock, install custom roms, tether, etc. or can all that be done on the regular version of the SIII just as easily that I can get at the Verizon store?

Thanks!

There's no need to get the dev version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] billard412:
Yes its unnessesary to buy the dev edition. Hurts the dev community in the long run when people purchase it. Not to mention your dropping 700 bones on a phone that verizon wont touch or support. And has no warranty
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flooritnfly:
Yeah I have no intention of hurting the dev community, my main concern was that I could root/unlock/modify an SIII bought from the Verizon store just as much and easily as I could with a dev version......

[General Questions and Answers] lavacano201014:
Pretty much the title.

There are certain icons (namely 3G Watchdog) that I want to not be on the status bar, but still visible if I open the notification drawer. Yes, I'm aware of the "hide icon" feature in 3G Watchdog, but that doesn't actually hide the icon, all it does is make the icon image blank. Android still reserves a space on the status bar for that icon, which leads to some ugly gaps like this:

I'm using CyanogenMod 10, if that matters. And yes, I'm aware of CM10's feature allowing you to completely hide notifications from certain apps, but that would remove the notification from the notification drawer, which is not what I want. Think Google Now and its weather notification, except with me being able to apply that function to whatever app I want.
[General Questions and Answers] lavacano201014:
I dislike bumping, but it's been a few months and I still need an answer.

I've since upgraded to CM10.1 if that matters.
[General Questions and Answers] HYNK:
I have the same question

I'm currently using NilS notifications and have no need for app notifications to show on the status bar. It's very annoying having these notifications remain after I've already read/acted upon them. Is there any status bar mod which will hide app notifications from the bar itself? I don't care if it just makes app icons in the status bar black so they appear to be invisible. It's fine if notifications still end up in the drawer.

I've looked everywhere and tried some alternate status bar apps. The issue I've had with the alternate status bars is they've all ended up being a mask and when you pull the drop down, the alternate bars covered half of the clock and clear all button. If anyone know of any apps that won't do that, please let me know as well.

I understand Android doesn't currently allow 3rd party apps to clear status bar notifications. From what I've read, this will be changing in 4.3 but I just can't take it anymore. Any legitimate advice would be appreciated.

also on CM10.1

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] pyman:
I know this is a hardware question, but I'm hoping someone might have an answer.

My son cracked the screen on his Galaxy S Blaze. I ordered a replacement screen assembly and found a video which I thought showed how to replace the screen, but it was for a different model. I have the cover off, the flex cables disconnected and the motherboard out, but I can't figure out how to remove the old screen from the front housing. Based on the other video, it should be a combination of heating the edge of the housing with a hair dryer until the adhesive softens, then prying it off. I've tried to do this with no luck, but it could be that I'm not prying hard enough - kinda scared to break it.

Does anyone know how to remove the screen - or better yet, know of a disassembly guide for the Galaxy S Blaze?

Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] danTM:
a little off topic but...

One of the pins on my usb port got damaged. I was curious and took off the cover to have a look at what would be needed to replace it.... too much soldering that is above my skill level. Anyways, in the process of removing the cover, I lost functionality of my hardware buttons. I'm assuming I damaged the cables that attach them to the mobo. Didn't notice this until I put the cover back on and booted up. Does that seem right? Was I just being too harsh while taking it apart and ripped a ribbon or something of the like?

So I'm not sure if the recent Jelly Bean update had anything to do with this but I can't seem to delete this particular message thread in my inbox !!! Anyone else experience this ???
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
How many texts are in it?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dmarco:
There are none in it. It's just my contacts name, then when you click on it to open, it opens a blank text message asking you to enter the recipient. Then when I try deleting it, my phone lags a bit and then I get an error message stating "unfortunately messaging has stopped". It is so frustrating!!! :mad:

Then the message thread appears in my inbox again
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] plat_:
dmarco,

I have not seen this issue myself as described, but it's near impossible to really help beyond that without any idea as to what ROM is running (if not stock).

Are you able to backtrace any steps to a point where it didn't do this?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dmarco:
I'm on stock actually and unrooted still, I have no freaking clue what gives here. The worse part is that it's a female classmate of mine whose thread I can't delete and I'm a little uneasy that my wife might see that, think there is something going on between us (which there isn't) and shoot me while I'm sleeping!!! LoL
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] plat_:
dmarco,

It sounds like some obscure corruption, or an update if one did occur on your phone didn't go as smoothly as it should have.

I wish I could offer more of an answer, but if a resolution is needed quickly before your significant other becomes a significant suspect in a murder case, you could try a factory reset after backing up what you can of pictures etc.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dmarco:
Thanks for your help, I truly do appreciate it. Perhaps I could clear data or force stop the messaging app and see if that helps. Will that cause any serious issues to arise later though. Because it warns not to do so, so I'm just wondering... would you suggest that?

P.S. I honestly don't think she would kill me, I'm more than convinced that she would shoot to wound only. lol...seriously
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bfranklin1986:
Try going through app settings and clearing data and cache for messaging. Other than that factory reset might be your only other option
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dmarco:
Yeah, I'm hoping I don't have to go the factory reset route. Will give the app setting a try. Thanks bro
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bfranklin1986:
No problem, I know the kinda hell I would catch if my wife saw my texts to my girlfriend ;)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
The only way I've remedied something similar is to clear data and wipe cache/dalvik but without a custom recovery Iono how. Last ditch effort is if you have root you can delete the database file with ALL your texts in it. I had to do this. Because I had 20k texts and it froze whenever I tried to delete.

Open Google Play, select your menu button, select "my apps" and then check they are not set to auto update. You should also check settings and make sure auto update is not set as default.

This is not a Note 2 problem but an ATT problem. My mother had the exact same problem on a much simpler phone that didn't even have a data plan attached to it. I looked at her bill online and there were countless small data exchanges over a short period of time. I spoke to ATT and told them she doesn't even have a data plan and her phone is not one to use data. I had to forcibly block Internet data from exchanging back and forth on the account level. Obviously you can't use that as a solution. Don't let them tell you it's your device because chances are it's not.
