[Galaxy Note II Accessories] NinjaPlease:
The Spigen SGP wallet case is the best case I currently own. It is on the expensive side but it is worth it!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] raduque:
I'd just be happy with a simple "Barely There"-style case that has a slot for credit cards, like the one I had on my GS2.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Beowulf_pt:
Going to bump this up a little as I'm wondering if there are more offers in the market now... that is, flip cases with LED holes...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Beowulf_pt:
Still nothing good with a LED cutout?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] darekz:
Im using this one.

http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=76583

No led hole but could be easily made with hole puncher.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Acery:
I've seen flip covers that allow for caller ID and swiping to answer without having to open the case. I'm surprised they do not have an LED cut out though.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cirjeffrey:
what cases do that? i know the itskins lava case does but sadly they're sold out :(

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Beowulf_pt:
The Note 2 has been in the market for several months now but I still haven't found anything addequate.

Funny how case manufacturers like to add all sorts of useless features and details and they all ignore something as basic as having a cutout for the LED. If you put the phone on a table with such a case, the notification LED becomes totally useless.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] tomcat420m:
That case looks so sweet, thanks for sharing. I'm gonna keep an eye on that so if they become available again.

I find it should fit your needs.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Beowulf_pt:
It looks pretty good but as usualy they were lazy too... once more it does not have a cutout for the LED.

The multicolor notification LED is a great feature of the Note 2 and I refuse to have to cut a hole in a cover, especially if it was expensive to start with.

Sigh. The hunt remains, but I pretty much lost hope. No one cares about the LED.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
I have a folio cover and while it doesn't fit your specifications I can say that a hole cut for the mic isn't that big of a deal. And even though it doesn't have a hole for the led I can still see it blink through the open/close crack. Mine does have a slot for the speaker so I can't attest to how well one would perform without one.

All I'm saying is that you might not really need to get ALL you boxes checked to be happy. If I punched a hole in my case for led it would probably fit your needs, thought my case is carbon fiber wrapped in leather.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] barflybzzz:
Like you, I looked pretty much everywhere. I was convinced that this elusive case would become my white whale, and I got tired of the hunt, so I did the following:

1) Purchased the Boxwave Nero from Amazon for a paltry $12.20--yes, a genuine leather vertical case for only $12.20. It has everything you're looking for except the LED notification light and ear speaker (or front-facing camera for that matter) cutout on the top front, but everything else you would want is there--USB slot, exposed sides for controls, rear speaker and camera openings on the back, and primary and secondary mic exposed, thanks to simple vertical design. Plus, all four corners of the phone are protected by the rear of the case. Still, like you, I wanted more.

2) So I went to my local shoe repairman after I measured and he punched an oblong hole for the LED indicator and ear speaker (I didn't really care about access to the front camera).

I've had the case for about a month and have been very happy with it. I have a soft case with protection for front and back, and I can talk with the case closed, see the notification light, and take pictures. Try that with the Samsung Flip Case, which is so annoying with the horizontal opening hanging there. Of course, I wouldn't use the Boxwave as an outdoors case as the protection is minimal, but for business, it looks very stylish (and did I mention genuine leather?). And the price is unbeatable. I don't think I would have liked putting holes in a $50-$60 Zenus case, but this worked out well for me.

http://www.amazon.com/BoxWave-Nero-...95750&sr=8-10&keywords=boxwave+note+2+leather

Good Luck with your search.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
Even if you had cut a hole for the camera it wouldn't work for ya. Plus seeing your notification light through the case is wishy washy. You guys are just asking for too much.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] barflybzzz:
Not sure what you mean by wishy-washy? it's a matter of convenience, and I respectfully disagree with you that those of us who want that feature in a case are asking for too much. And the hole punch did work for me . . . it's no different than modding a Defender case to accommodate an extended battery, in my opinion.

But to each his (or her) own, right?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
What I'm saying is I have a notification light hole in another flip case and even though the leather is thin you can't see the light unless you're looking directly above it. It makes little difference. From any angle whatsoever you won't be able to tell that the light is flashing unless it's dark and if it is you will be able to see the light through the opening in the case anyway.

And the front facing camera won't work through a hole in a leather case. Take away those 2 and you have many options.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Beowulf_pt:
You can see the LED perfectly well from an angled position if the cutout is well made and wide enough. Many cases offer similar cutouts for camera or speaker.

In fact, Noreve has a flip cover that has a pretty decent LED cutout and as far as I know, the LED is perfectly visible. You can leave the phone in silence you your desk next to you, while closed, and will still be able to tell when an SMS or other event was triggered.

http://www.noreve.com/langue/en/product/Samsung_Galaxy_Note_2_Tradition_leather_case.html

Sadly, the Noreves have a fatal flaw... no cutout for the USB plug and no microphone hole (this last one probably forces you to always use it open even in calls.

I'm not saying everyone needs the feature, but it is strange that cover and case manufacturers ignore the LEDs completely. With the Note 3 and other models, I guess they will also ignore the IR emitter...

[MENTION=5189385]barflybzzz[/MENTION]: Your suggestion was interesting and the Nero case looks great for the money. Sadly, I am in Europe and shipping appears to leave it as expensive as a pricey leather case like the Noreves (50 Eur+)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ibrahimnie:
Did anyone tried this case. On ebay search 130893585232

It's an clear flip tpu case through which you can see the whole screen
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Beowulf_pt:
I heard some bad comments about them not being all that easy to see, but have not tested any.

Anyone found anything new in the good-leather-flip-with-led-and-all-other-cutouts?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] joshm.1219:
Why not just get a screen protector and a case with a thin lip?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Beowulf_pt:
I don't really like screen protectors. The screen never really looks the same, plus they do not protect as much as a thicker cover, for instance, if you drop it and hits a sharp corner, it will probably still shatter. Also, with a properly made case you can still talk while the case is closed, which keeps your glass from getting dirty/greasy.

Sadly, I never really found any decent flip case that had all the right cutouts (usb,mics,headphones,buttons and LED). I'm still using a cheap gel TPU case with a lip.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
That's just sad, just because you can't find EVERYTHING you want in 1 case doesn't mean you can't get a quality flip case and fix it yourself.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Ps2004:
Not sure if posted already or not, but I use that one

Edit can't post link : Ebay : search SOFT GEL TPU SILICONE SIDE

It's really nice !

Pro : can use phone without opening !

Cons : dunno how to explain, but when the face cover touch the screen you can see it, like bubble, but it's ok when screen it on (may post a pic next week if needed)

Screen may be less responsive on edges with fingers, at least for sometime after you open it, but after a while it works ok, works very well with stylus, no trouble on edges

Auto luminosity seems to work ok for me but : when calling, the phone does't know when it's not near my ears, and the screen stays black xept I hit a key, bit annoying especially when you want to end a call

Other than that, I think it's a perfect cover, better than samsung one that doesn't protect the phone, it may not be the best protection, but still better than samsung, if it's gonna drop
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Beowulf_pt:
Not exactly what I was looking for, but an interesting find. If the screen is functional while closed and then pen works, that is even a plus.

I might give this one a try just to see how it behaves, thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Ps2004:
I just opened it and put cover back, and edges works fine with finger without bigger pressure, in past I had to wait a bit for that, but only first or two letters from edge would be difficult

Stylus always work

Check youtube (not mine) : user crazypat8 video : IMG0561

S3 version but it's the same
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Beowulf_pt:
Not a perfect match to what I wanted, but is a decent compromise. You can see the led, while still having some screen protection and access to the buttons. Plus being able to sorta use the screen with fingers and pen while closed is a nice bonus. I think I might get used to it.

It is a cheap version of the itskins lava, but for 4,41 Eur shipped (Europe) it seems worth checking out. Trying out the lava would cost 4 or 5x that. Thanks for the tip.

Nice. Interesting concept. I like it. Sadly the forgot cutouts for the volume buttons and the led, which is surprising given the good idea about the caller id and answer slider.

Anyone using this bluetooth headset (Motorola SD 10 HD) with the Tab2? I have the 7in one if that matters.

The volume on the headset is really low with Videos and Netflix?

Low I mean its seems to peak at only half what i think it should be.

Volume in settings is already set to its highest, as well as the volume controls on the headset.

Already did a reset of the headset.

And this is not a problem with my Galaxy S3 and iPad.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sweeds:
Using Go SMS Pro for texting, but I am sending duplicate, or double, of sms messages. It's not every text, approx one in every 4. Running CM10 on the vzw SGS3.

Here's what I've attempted:

Disable all notifications in the AOSP Messaging app

Froze Messing apk in Titanium

Set "Stock SMS unistalled" in Go SMS Pro settings

Re-flashed the VRLF2 modem

Seems others have this problem, but no solution other than "use the messaging app". I've got 2 theories, but I am opening this up to discussion and if anybody has an angle I'm not seeing.

-I'll try using Handcent. If this works, it points there's a bug in Go SMS Pro. Else, it's across third-party apps meaning its either the AOSP .apk or ... radio?

additionally, this has only been occuring since I flashed CM10.1, lost data, and odin back to TW and back to normal on CM10. Been having spotty data and I am thinking this may be associated? I am certainly open to suggestions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shimp208:
You could try clearing GO SMS Pro's app cache (Settings->Application Manager->All->GO SMS Pro->Clear Cache) or running a fix permissions utility. Uninstalling then re-installing may also fix it. While the above suggestions may not fix it, I figured I would give you some more possibilities to try.

"You have lost data connectivity because you left your home network with data roaming turned off"

The problem:

I live in the Netherlands and im now on vacation in south Africa.

I have a kpn (telco) provider sim in my note 2 and no longer get (3g) data connection when I landed in cape town (getting the message above).

I also have a s3 with me, with a Vodafone sim and works fine.

When I swap sims both phones are ok.

No need to say roaming is switched on and so on.

I googled hours today and all I saw was silly remarks about switching on roaming and more like that.

If anybody has a clue I'd love to hear it!

btw, I'm on the latest 4.1.2 France edition xxelkc

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phlashlite:
I've just caught the same message. Never saw it before. I'm in my home area in Florida so I really don't understand why I got this message. Have not travelled at all in December, domestically or otherwise. My SGS II Titanium was unlocked over a week ago. I also upgraded Android from Gingerbread 2.6.3 to ICS 4.0.4 in the same time frame. Have no idea if that could be in any way related, but I didn't see this message until the time of this post, and as I said, I did the upgrades over a week ago. In my Mobile Network Settings "Data roaming" in unchecked. I have never touched this setting since I owned the phone, so unless the ICS upgrade did so, the current settings should be the default. I've got an unlimited plan but I guess I should call T-Mobile and ask what's up with maybe having to tick the "Data roaming" box even though I'm at home and what that would mean? :cyclops: Would love to hear from anyone with some advice.

Hi folks.

I would appreciate a little help with a problem I have.

I rooted and installed Slimbean (240 dpi)? plus formula84 gapps from the stock T Mobile junk. I have an odd issue when checking 'my apps' within google play which says 'Your device isn't compatible with this version.

I have tried to clear the application cache/data for play within settings and restarting.

Also, the camera seems to keep looking for external storage which is a little odd?

I would appreciate any advice immensely.

Cheers all.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] L-L:
Forgot to mention, Ive changed the dpi manually to 240 and ran through the general UI instructions after changing the DPI but still get the problem. Boo!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jrleathers:
Had the same problem on first build of slimbean as well. I had to repeat the steps involving changing the DPI several times before I had success with play. The latest build of slimbean should already have DPI set to 240 and since that build ,I never had a problem. I never messed with DPI on latest build.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] L-L:
Thanks for replying. I thought I had the latest version. After a few goes of the same process you mentioned I managed to sort it.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Bloodflame:
Yeah, it can be a pain to get working properly. The only mirror for the 240DPI build isn't working, so the other 2 links are for the 182DPI version. Otherwise, they are exactly the same. Before flashing, you could edit the build.prop to reflect the change, and it'll make it easier for the Play Store to work right off the bat.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jrleathers:
Never edited build prop before but I guess I could look into it just so I know how for future reference. I'm sure its simple. Probly just open the build.prop and find where the DPI numbers are and change them?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] theAPANT:
That is exactly how to do it, or just use ROM toolbox, there is a section for build prop edits, or you can do it before you even flash the ROM. In build prop you can also edit some stuff to get an amazing benchmark, but no help to the actual performance, so kinda useless( its something with frame rates)
