[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Digicrat:
I got the S4 Active last week, and plan on taking it with me whitewater rafting tomorrow (with an old Wii wrist strap tied to the case for extra safety if I do get adventurous and try taking photos on the raft). It occurs to me though that if the screen is wet, I might not be able to unlock the phone and get to the camera. I notice that even in Aqua mode with the volume keys mapped to the shutter, if the screen goes off, you have to swipe the screen to get back to the camera -- or unlock the phone if its timed out and the facial recognition option fails.

On my old android phone, if you left the camera open it would stay open if the phone locked (aka screen went off), only reverting you to the lock screen if you tried exiting the camera. Is there any way to get that functionality on the S4 active? Or perhaps to launch the camera by pressing the volume key from the normal lock screen?

This seems like an odd omission on a phone touted in commercials as being able to take underwater photos...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jetlitheone:
nope you cannot activate camera with wet screen as far as I know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Digicrat:
I found a partial workaround. I used DelayedLock (a great app, though I'll have to root the phone before I can take full advantage of it again) to temporarily increase the delay until the phone locks and then activated S-Voice commands from the lock-swipe screen. So, assuming it's not super noisy and the microphone isn't distorted by water, I should be able to use a voice command to launch the camera.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anrki:
I'm returning a Telus phone for warranty replacement but I didn't make a backup of the stock recovery.

I did find one on XDA somewhere and it works.

But, once I lock the boot loader and put it back to S-ON the device reset & recovery access is gone.

What happens is the phone reboots to reset but it just reboots again back to the ROM. After rebooting to bootloader it says TAMPERED and Security Warning at the top. I also forgot to mention recovery is not accessible at all.

Now, what I can do is lock the bootloader again and put S-ON and hope the technician at HTC won't try to access Recovery or perform a data reset.

Should I do that? Or can someone point me to a TELUS RUU or correct stock recovery image?

I want the phone back to full stock including recovery and S-ON & LOCKED.

Please advise.

I bought this case off of ebay and I was very surprised by the quality. This is essentially identical to the actual $60 Samsung S View case. I have only played with the official S View case for a short period of time at the store and have watched video reviews. I was frustrated because I wanted the case but could not justify spending such a large sum of money for it. So I combed ebay and bought 4 S View type cases all under 10 dollars. I have only received 2 cases so far but this one has exceeded any expectation I had.

The case came in a Samsung box that appears to be for the chinese market. Everything about the box looks official down to the "designed by samsung" to the barcode sticker with the inventory part number and date. The case itself is basically an official case. From the front cloth material to the inside felt/leather. The back snaps on perfect like the stock back cover. When I first applied the case it did not close all the way which is common among the reviews I saw but after laying it on it's face overnight, it nearly closes perfectly and I have only had it for a couple of days.

I bought this off of ebay for $8, and it came with a screen protector (I have no need for) and a stylus (I have no need for), but all in all, it is an incredible deal.

For those who want the official S View case but can't justify spending the money, this is perfect.

From all that I can tell, this is the real deal, but I can't see how it could be priced at this level, maybe the chinese market gets a cheaper price? More than likely though, this is just a high grade replica. From little I know of the replica market from watches to bags there are different grades with the low ends being poor knock offs to high ends which are essentially identical and most often made in the same factory where the originals are outsourced to for production.

I read reviews on Amazon for a replica S View cover that is apparently horrible, there is no screen even, just a hole cut out. I was not expecting what I got for the price I paid.

I made a short video review as well on youtube, but I can't post links. Just search for "s view unoffical case"

I am still waiting on two other S view cases that may or may not be identical to this (crossing fingers).

I also just purchased the Spigen flip mate case so the back and edges has some protection. You can get it on the Spigen ebay store for 12.99 rather than 17.99 on their website. I'll post pictures of that when it comes in this thread. Should be here in 3-5 days.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsscRoi-juY

**Flip Mate case arrived, see further down in thread, posted pictures and also a youtube review

****Updated with another review of a S View chinese case - this one is a case, not back cover
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] nybern:
Do you have a link to the seller?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] zeroeffect9k:
I can't post links yet, just created my account. I bought from seller named "frentaly". In his store do a search for "New FLIP PU Leather CASE Cover Smart Wake View For SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 S IV i9500"

Or go to youtube and search for "S View unofficial case - ebay/chinese "replica" incredible clone" you'll see my video that has a link in the description.

I originally went with this seller because he was in the US and had faster shipping, I also bought 2 similar cases that I have not received yet that were cheaper (one was 4.75) but I don't know how these are, could be identical or could be garbage. I will post when I get them. I also bought a S View case/cover that snaps on the phone, if you find my first video you can see my review for that as well.

Last time I bought a fake flip cover, my signal was degraded and my GPS wouldn't lock on.

To get it cheap, go to Best Buy and price match the $15 Amazon price.

- sent from Galaxy S4
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ahfu25:
I dont believe bestbuy does match price with amazon.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] dibe:
Some Bestbuys do it. Apparently it's up to the managers discretion. I got them to price match Amazon for a TV I bought about six months ago.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] zeroeffect9k:
My GPS works fine and there has been no impact to the signal. I can't imagine how this cover could cause such an impact, the back is the same plastic as the stock back, there isn't even a case going over that may possibly impact the signal. Maybe the magnet was too strong? I can't detect the magnet in this case, tried getting anything to stick, even cut up a small paper clip and it just slides off. I saw a review of a leather flip case that was like a wallet and it had a huge magnet in it, well, not huge but strong enough to pick up a pile of paperclips.

The one on Amazon, from reading the reviews is the one that has no actual screen for the S View, it is just a hole in the cover and many people complain that the back cover doesn't fit properly. I was tempted to buy that one to test my luck but found cheaper on ebay.

Spigen flip mate case

I bought the Spigen flip mate case off of ebay for 12.99. It arrived quickly in 3 days and was looking forward to it as with the S View cover there is no real protection if the phone is dropped.

I am disappointed with this flip mate case. I wasn't expecting much as it is just a piece of plastic that covers the back, but the main thing is that it fits loosely. It is tight enough to snap on and looks good, but with relative ease, it can pop right off. If you actually hold the phone still you can slide the cover back and forth very slightly - that shows it doesn't fit very tight. Also one of the corners is exposed, you think the main thing this case would at least provide is corner cover. I cannot see a reason why they would purposely cut a hole in the corner of this case. Maybe it was a cost saving measure so they could put it into the packaging.

The packaging it came in is over the top. It is a two piece shell of really heavy plastic - just from looking at things, it is apparent that out of the 13 bucks I spent, probably 11 dollars or more went into the packaging itself. The container it came in is much sturdier and seems more of value than the flip mate case, just don't know what I could use it for. The phone itself did not come in such a sturdy and over the top packaging. Really overkill for this case.

I am going to upload a video review on youtube showing how easy it is for this case to come right off the phone.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJJz8j09jrw

Time to start looking for another case that works with the S View. This case was a waste of money.

Update - attached an additional photo. I have had this case for less than 4 hours and it already has a serious scratch in the back. I have been keeping it in my pocket and placed it with my keys for less than 10 minutes. I usually keep my keys by the doorway and I forgot when I got inside. When I remembered, I saw a large scratch on the back of the case. It isn't deep, but as you can see in the photo it is easily scratched. I have to be more careful with this case. So not only is it loose but it scratches at the lightest touch.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] zeroeffect9k:
Got another S View type case.

This one is a case, not a cover that replaces the back.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/18116295298...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

The front cover is identical to the first one I reviewed except the samsung logo is missing. Same cloth material, same color. The inner cover is covered with a soft fabric/leather/felt type material.

Instead of a back cover for your phone, this one has a case. It is clear plastic, smoke colored. It covers all four corners and the phone fits in tight. One nice feature of the case is that the power button is cutout so there isn't a piece of case obstructing it. Small detail but makes hitting the power button easier than Spigen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJJz8j09jrw or other magnet S view case here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY2d2ifC8Mg

All in all, it is a nice case, It is under 6 dollars and for those looking for an S View Case that want protection for your phone other than buying a Spigen Flip Mate this is a great deal.

Here is a youtube review

Hey all,

I am just curious if anyone has any positive experiences with mirroring their device via either mhl or preferably miracast to a projector?

I am a teacher and would like to up my technological uses this year and I wanted to see if there was a way to easily mirror either my phone or a tablet (which I have not purchased but am in the market for, maybe the new n7?).

There has really been an influx in great education apps that I could use and I thought it would be fun if I could have a tablet to use in my classroom that would wirelessly mirror to my ceiling mounted projector. That way I could just pass the tablet around or I could load up my lessons and presentations on there and be able to maneuver around the room effortlessly while having the ability to control whats going on in the front of the classroom.

I am hoping there is a wireless way that I could sort things out but ultimately if I have to have a wired connection it wouldnt be the end of the world, just much fewer uses to me.

Any ideas, suggestions, experiences with this sort of stuff would be of great help. Or if you have something extremely out of the box that you think I could use that would be great as well!

Thanks!

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] epicus:
if it disappears again then there is a tool active which wants to mess with that registry key. I've tried that SPB tool also and it made my landscape icon disappear indeed, as some other tools... so get rid of that tool cause the landscape icon is far more useful.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] lydiachris:
Hi.

When I first got my XDAIIi, I did a corporate install.

What is SPB ?!?!

Is that anything to do with the o2 software cd that comes with the XDAIIi!? i.e. the GPRS montor, ZIP etc... !??!

Is there another reg hack anyone?!? :?:

Or a piece of software that actually resolves the problem!?

I would greatly appreciate a reply,

Lydiachris
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] epicus:
the spb grps toold doesn't conflict with the landscape on the xdaIIi, I've kept it running and it didn't cause any issue.

The only option where it is specified for the landscape icon to be viewed is in the registry key as mentioned earlier... dig the registry.

If then, the icon disappear still not appears or keeps disappearing, as that registry key rightfully specifies the icon's being, then it has to be other (additional) software which prevents it from appearing, e.g. the option to prevent the icon from appearing once the additional program built-in/in is loaded.

Try uninstalling the corp. lot and reinstalling what is necessary I'd say.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] epicus:
as to the fact which application messes which with the icon... at least a few for sure, and as I recalled from tryouts I an spb tool did mess with it.

-scuzi mi errata, pero soy humana-
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] andycwb:
Is there a program which should be in StartUp to make this work? I checked the registry key (I have the same problem) and it is set to zero, which the previous posts seem to suggest means it should display.

Maybe it has something to do with "Today Timout" ?!?!?

ps. yeah is there any software we can shove in the startup folder which will keep the icon there?!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] andycwb:
Sort of solved for me

I removed a bunch of "no longer used" programs last night and the icon mysteriously reappeared after a couple of soft resets. Wierd.....
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] lydiachris:
Yeah but does anyone know what the Today Timeout option does?!?!?!

I ahve searched long time in this forum and cannot find it anywhere!!!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] andycwb:
If you leave the device off for longer than the today timeout, you will get the today screen when you switch it back on, otherwise you will get the last application used
