[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Lobster!:
Carbon fiber or kevlar as long as it's not shiny, slippery, and disgusting to hold when your hands are oily like the stock Samsung one.

I'd pay around 25. Assuming it's not just one of those cheap cases with a simple skin stuck on the back. I'd love for it to be the door. My god, just take my wallet now. :good:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ThugosaurusRex:
Kevlar would be awesome.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] chiefroastbeef:
I too would pay $30 for a real carbon battery cover(preferably without a glossy coating).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] CHUUZE:
With NFC and wireless charging working I'd most definately get one for around $30.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Jhong209:
I'd pay 20-30 for either.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] gizak:
I was just looking for a nice carbon fiber battery door, but also read that real carbon fiber blocks NFC and didn't want to lose that function as I use it a lot. So I'd be in for Kevlar if it didn't block NFC, QI, or degrade wireless signals.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lambstone:
Yeah no. Thanks for the link but that costs the same with slower international shipping to boot.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hugo87:
Would deffenetly like a carbon fiber battery cover in a matte finish. Would go great with my aluminum bumbers
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] TheWhiteChallenger:
thanks for the input guys, and weather i went carbon or kevlar it would definitely be matte. realistically $50 is likely was it would be priced at and theres 0 chance that would include wireless charging at that price, samsung gets $40 for there crap plastic one. i wouldnt mind doing a prototpye and small test run at cost but i can loose money on this. now that said i havent gotten a bid yet but quality is expensive. i was thinking wireless charging being included further down the line if it takes off and production could be rampd up and then $30 w/o wireless $50 with might be viable, but this is all thorectial at this point. oh and id btw i doubt that "100% carbon" is legit the are alot of thing sold as "real carbon" and even if its "carbon" cloth its a carbon/fiberglass blend (and low carbon content at that). also real high quality carbon or kevlar uses super high temp resins and is baked in a special oven under pressure (this is where the real duraiblity comes from). cheap carbon omits this and uses the same resin as fiber glass and is just air dries. without these steps all you get is something that looks like carbon/kevlar but has none of the qualities that makes it desirable, and idk how this would apply to phone parts, but that kind of "carbon" on car parts has major oxidation issues.

but ill continue to see what kind of feedback comes in on the idea and see what can be done

edit: so i looked close that carbon case its the cheaps stuff, the weave is inconsistente, that means the cloth is loose and weak, and you can clearly see the fibers that make up the cloth, on legit carbon the strips have an almost iridescent black/gray look due the the high number of carbon strands.

the pic a attached is what real carbon looks like.

and quality can actaully even go up from there with carbon nano tubes. basically super small ho;;ow threads with very high tensile strength
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kelmar13:
I'd consider 50 bucks. 30-40 would be a sure thing for me to buy one as long is was a matte finish (and a REAL door and not a sticker or lining).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] El Mono:
Would definitely be interested in this. Especially carbon fiber. Not as much a fan of kevlar. And I would hope you'd use epoxy as opposed to polyester for your resin. Fifty dollars is within range I'd pay. Hope you do this...

el mono
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] bestcoast:
For a legit carbon or Kevlar battery door with wireless charging I'd be willing to pay $60. I think the matte finish over it would be best for grip.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] motorsports601:
Better if it was a case. High quality silver version too.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lambstone:
Yeah... No....

Carbon Fiber will block wireless signals. That includes wireless charging.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] BoostedB18C:
What about carbotanium? How awesome would it be to have to explain what your case is actually made out of? Only nerds, hardcore car lovers, and mountain bikers know what it is.

So I had purchased the 100% Genuine Carbon Fiber Case from here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-100-REA...-Galaxy-S4-Back-Case-/271244997490#vi-content

I must say it looks and feels absolutely amazing! But unfortunately I won't be able to use it. :/

As soon as I put it on it heavily degraded the cell signal (4 bars down to 2 bars) and completely killed NFC for me. Wireless charging seems to work however.

I had no idea real Carbon Fiber was as much an isolator as aluminum. Perhaps this is actually carbotanum case and not just carbon fiber?

Update: It might be just that case but then I remembered there ARE actually a few Genuine Carbon Fiber cases out already: http://store.carbonfibergear.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=galaxy+s4

I read one review about one of the cases and it seems it also blocks NFC just as the one I bought does: http://www.amazon.com/Cygnett-CY119...dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1

I think the problem is carbon fiber on it's own with just a clear coat would be as fragile as thin glass so they have to add some metallic powder into the mix to give it toughness from drops and cracks and such. Obviously that metallic powder would interfere on signal isolation but this is just my theory why it doesn't work, not 100% sure.

I really wish these worked. I am a huge fan of the look and feel of genuine carbon fiber but I refuse to lose NFC functionality (Google Wallet, S-Beam, NFC tags, etc...)

Ingredients: Water, pure acylic binder, graphite, carbon black, additives, preservative
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] :
Carbon FIBER *, carbon has got me thinking of the carbon atoms :confused:. Carbon fiber is coated with gloss that may fade over time and deteriorate.

Once that carbon fiber is exposed, watch out fingers/ hand! Learned from past experience :P
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] open1your1eyes0:
Is this the coating they use on these cases?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vw671:
No, the coating is a general purpose product used to block RF. RF = NFC and Cell signal. Just pointing out the native RF characteristics of graphite and carbon.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] open1your1eyes0:
I wonder why they would be purposely using such a coating. Just curious where you got the information they use it as well?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vw671:
EMI shielding has tons of applications in computers, audio processing, electronics, etc..

Here's an interesting document:

http://www.davidlu.net/13869667.pdf
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] twolasrnames:
On the Rezound, we had a guy prototype a pure carbon fiber case. He said it killed his signal to pretty much 0 bars, and if they were going to continue, kevlar was the way they were going to go. They never reported back on the kevlar, so I assume they never made it. This is probably why the Razr has always been kevkar and not CF.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] open1your1eyes0:
I managed to find one Kevlar case for the Galaxy S III but nothing for S4 (yet at least): http://www.amazon.com/LIMITED-LUXURY-PURELUX-SAMSUNG-GALAXY-S/dp/B009L1CU1Q/ref=pd_sxp_f_pt

That looks quite nice. Also thanks for reminding me that Kevlar and Carbon Fiber are NOT the same material. :good:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] NATA8986:
+1 for carbon battery door.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] timeToy:
The reason genuine Carbon Fiber attenuate RF signals, is not because of some coating or the chemicals used. Carbon Fiber is INCREDIBLY strong all by itself, no need to add anything it.

It is because of the structure of Carbon Fiber itself; it is a fabric, it is constituted of a large amount of individual fibers weaved together, in essence you have a large polarized (all fibers in the same direction) shield, and then another large polarized shield rotated 90 degrees (they are at least 2 layer of Carbon fiber fabric in the final product, some time 3 or more). This is a pretty efficient RF shield.

Known Issues

There may be a slight delay for the screen to come on when waking up the device from sleep

Music playback may stutter when turning the screen on from sleep

In some cases, on LTE, signal bars may not display properly.

BT tethering connects, but does not properly assign an IP address for Internet access

USB tethering does not work with Windows (Linux-based systems are fine)

Bluetooth HID broken (keyboards, mice)

Wired headset mic not working

Unconfirmed Issues

Camera may occasionally have a black screen (Focal seems unaffected) - likely a 3rd party app issue

(decided to make this post a little more useful)

8/16 build: I couldn't seem to get three way calling to work. When I was calling somebody, they called me, I picked up, but then I couldn't hear anything, then it disconnected.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
You need to flash the latest, and if that's still an issue, then you can post it.

Much changed in those two days.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Joey121215:
I'm running a sense ROM right now, but I'm really interested in this. Can someone confirm that [every feature I've got now] will work, because I don't want to flash right now. Also how exactly do I flash AOSP? Do I need to be S-OFF?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lreyes:
Pretty sure everything works haven't had a issue with CM10.2 . No need to downgrade your TP as the newer CM10.1 and up roms have the 3.4 kernel which supports the newer touchpanel driver.:thumbup:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Saneless One:
Anyone having camera issues? Sometimes I just get a black screen like my camera can't see anything. The focal app doesn't seem to have the problem.

Otherwise this has been good since I ran the 15 build.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AerodynamicTrunks:
I can verify this exists(at least as late as level 9 labyrinths), haven't tested on build from OP yet.

EDIT: Cursory attempts at recreating on 20130818 have been fruitless.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bennyboy78:
Anyone else have data issues? I know this is like still wip, but im just wondering. I have LTE, and 3 bars of service. Well, LTE will come in and out constantly. It shows LTE, but the internet does not work. Then it works for a couple minutes then goes out and repeats the cycle.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dgr581:
Ditto on the data issues, 3g works but LTE shows connected however no data with it

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Check Post #2. Data still works fine. Ignore the bars.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Feech:
I think one of the biggest issues with data and the ROMs for this phone is most of us are in a deployment area. It's hard to tell if its ROM or rollout issues.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Decimation:
Strangely enough I have better reception with 10.2 then I ever did with 10.1. I have better 3G signal and I'm seeing LTE in my area that I wasn't seeing before, and it stays conected.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Saneless One:
Many issues I have with the ROM persist when I go back to stock. I think between HTC's code and Sprint it's really hard to tell if this ROM is truly the issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kenpen:
Data seems worse on 818 irc build ..might have to revert back to previous. Going to redown load later and see
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
There was an issue with one of the included patches. The latest IRC build has this fixed (and hopefully for good this time).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Ragster:
I also have this issue in snapchat but can't reproduce it on my camera or focal. It works fine until you actually take a picture, then it's not rendered or something so it's all black.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zpasc002:
That is an issue with SnapChat, read the app reviews and you will see. Revert to the latest version before the new update.

build.prop fix already applied, wallet FC on startup

After a clean boot, Wallet immediately FCs.

If I open it again, it sits at the "this could take up to 5 minutes" screen for 10 minutes then it FCs.

I'm a noob, but I've read this thread and checked the build.prop. It appears to already be modded in my nightly (8/24).

Any help is appreciated. Everything else appears to be working...but I do like the wallet and would love to have it functional. FWIW, I DID NOT reset my wallet before flash. So if I bricked the secure element...so be it. I am due for an upgrade in a few months anyway. Hopefully that's not the case...but I can take my noobie lumps.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Wipe all data for Wallet, then uninstall. Boot to recovery, wipe cache & Dalvik Cache. Then reinstall Wallet and it should be fine.

This appears to be some sort of security feature that prevents you from accessing Wallet just by flashing a new ROM without erasing data. You can also try going to wallet.google.com and disabling Wallet from there.

I've had to follow this procedure every time I've dirty flashed an update.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xuohtx:
I have this same issue. I'm running the 8/20 deck build but I've always had this issue. It seems better now in 10.2 and the 8/20 build, going to update and see if it persists.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
I did a quick search and didn't find anything about this, but maybe it's not a problem for others...

My phone volume (i.e. in-call volume) is really loud, even at the lowest setting. I've been having to hold the phone an inch away from my ear during calls lol. Is this a problem for others, or are my ears just too sensitive? Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere to turn it down more than with the volume rocker during a call?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sirzepp:
Followed your directions to a "T".

I'm still getting the "error adding card" and "Device set-up failed" screens. I am S-On...if that makes a difference. Sorry for bugging with such a trivial issue...thanks for the help.

Should I try going back to stock, deactivating wallet, then coming back up to CM10.2?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
Deck's CM10.2, 8/24 build from IRC.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I don't know. Wallet works fine for me, especially after disabling the device via the Web. Did you try that too?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sirzepp:
Yeah, I tried disabling it from the web as well. I have a call into Google but I have a feeling they will just tell me the device isn't supported because of the custom ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Like I said, it does work. I'd try it again. Sometimes just a reboot will get it working (after data has been cleared). Make sure you give it ample time to connect when you first open the app. Doing it on WiFi or LTE is recommended.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Spookymonster:
Running 8/27 nightly. Experiencing the following:

- Clicks while playing music over Bluetooth in my car. As others have said, this may be related to switching cell towers while moving.

- No roaming option available for data (as others have already reported). Sucks if you're running a custom PRL for Verizon 3G (which I am). Now I'm stuck on 1x most of the day (same as when I use stock Sprint PRL). Roam Control doesn't seem to have any effect.

Other than that, the ROM is absolutely beautiful. When I was using the MeanBean ROM to Bluetooth stream audio to my GMC Terrain, my dash display would just say 'Bluetooth audio'. Now I get artist info, song title, and album covers. Impressive.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] A$hr@j:
Don't fret about that..

Also, the OP link is quite old now.. Log onto IRC and use the topic build in there. I think it should be a version built on 08/24.. (not sure 'cos I haven't logged in since couple of days)

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AerodynamicTrunks:
Yesterday I somehow managed to get 3g roaming. None today though. I blame Sprint.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hotbbq:
I can't speak for the previous poster, but I can't get onto the wifi at my house unless I reboot the phone. Switching from LTE to 3G often causes data weirdness. Usually requires a reboot. Toggling airplane mode doesn't seem to work.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rs68homer:
I am having similar issues (IRC 8/24 clean flash).

1) if I want to connect to a different WiFi router then currently connected, I have to select the desired network, and then toggle WiFi off and on to get it to connect.

2) I will loose network activity over time though the signal shows good (lte and 3g). Have to toggle airplane or reboot to recover.

3) a couple icons on one of my home screens are removed about twice a day. It is always the same 2 icons (XDA and VNC).

4) waking the phone sometimes leads to black screen. Press to sleep then wake again will recover.

5) camera is not always working, it just hangs.

I am wandering if some of the data that gets restored by TB might be messing things up. My next load I will install all apps manually just in case.
