[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] mrcrah:
No need:D

to get it to work I reboot into recovery, flash the file, reboot. Power off then use the three button combo to get into recovery IR else I can't get into recovery.. Reflash, reboot.. Job done!!

Looks good, thank you :)

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] rahlquist:
Just wanted to share my experience and warning with everyone about Spigen and their warranty practices.

Like many people when I bought my S4 I wanted to put a decent case on it to keep it from getting mangled. So I started out mistakenly buying what appeared to be a slim armor on Ebay. Once I got it, I realized it was likely a fake and Spigen confirmed it. Over the course of dealing with their rep I decided they seemed like a pretty decent company so I ordered a Glas.tr then a week or so later placed and order for a Neo Hybrid through their Amazon store using some bitcoins I had laying around and used the bitspend service to complete the purchase. I got the case, it was legit (with serial # that verifies) and everything seemed fine.

A couple weeks back I noticed my Neo had cracked around the usb port so I took a pic (large image http://pcsites.com/DSCN5201.JPG ) and hit up Spigen on Facebook to see what they had to say. Their rep told me to contact support and that they would send me a reinforced unit (so yes obviously based on this and the number of similar complaints they redesigned the ring on they Neo Hybrid blury pic showing the new ring http://pcsites.com/updated.jpg next to the old silver ring ). So I dropped support a ticket with my product and serial. They got back to me a couple days later. Their response was basically "whats your order #?" If you didnt order our product directly from us, contact who you ordered it from because we cant help you. I responded back and explained to them how I had procured my Neo, including a screen shot of the order confirmation from bitspend. They contacted me back and told me that that had taken my order # from the screen shot and an Amazon rep would be in touch with me. I contacted them back and explained again that I was just the person receiving the item from Amazon so if they told amazon to look it up by order # and contact the person whose order number it was then I wouldn't be hearing from Amazon. I did wait a few days though. Then basically I gave up, responded back and told them I would buy another product.

So just FYI. Just because they brag about a warranty, and they have 'serial' numbers to prove authenticity, don't expect them to stand behind their product necessarily. The tl;dr version of my ticket can be seen here ( http://pcsites.com/spigen2.jpg )

BTW the blue ring in the photo is one I bought when I got tired of waiting for Spigen to be a stand up company to stand behind their product and handle the replacement regardless of whom the item was purchased from. I doubt I will ever purchase from them again considering this service.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Adam0524:
I bought one of these. Biggest waste of 30 bucks I've ever spent on a case. Not only does it feel cheap it is flimsy as hell.

They literally put less than a dollar in materials into these cases. And the trim that goes around it is beyond flimsy. It's easy to break just trying to put the case on or take it off.

Sweet looking case, but just a straight rip off. I've bought 2 dollar throw away cases that are better built and durable.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Lobster!:
Seems like you bought it at the wrong time, the updated version with the reinforced cutouts came out a while ago. Mines holding up fine but the headphone jack cutout scares me.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] scott_0:
I don't agree with Spigen's warranty or lack thereof support, but lol for members to say their materials are cheap is non sense, and I'm just amazed so many people are breaking these things, I change my battery daily which means I have the case off/on once a day and have never had an issue, hell my wife even grabbed the band while I had it off to clean some lint out of the tpu, and she was twisting and flexing it and it survived........
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] richii0207:
This is why I buy from the company versus another vendor. Many companies have issues granting warranties on product purchased from another vendor.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] rahlquist:
And hardly ever removed my Neo intentionally. It did however occasionally pull off a corner in my pocket. The materials are, what the materials are. In my book, they are likely using what their testing has shown to be the best compromise between profitability and long life. Thats why when it seemed obvious that they wouldn't help me with the warranty claim I bought a replacement ring until such time as I can find a better case. I am a bit picky and dont want something that adds a ton of bulk or a material that drags and pulls going into out of the pocket like some cheap silicon based tpu do.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] scott_0:
thats odd, mine is quite tight and has never come close to just pulling a corner out of the case :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Gunkk:
I would guess the outer is pc-abs and inner a good grade of Poly-u.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Eris _2.1_2010:
Same here, mines pretty tight on my S4 and haven't any corners pull off.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] thehelios:
Mine lasted about 3 months and then one of the "bars" surrounding the USB snapped and then the other one gave a week later. The new reinforced USB port looks a lot more promising but the original will inevitably break. I did not take it off that often. :/
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] BuckyRocks:
I just got in touch with them through the Help Desk because a friend of mine purchased one case for me while visiting Seattle and now I opened it and found out I got the one with the weak frame.

I told them that regardless who's selling the item, they are the manufacturers and is their fault and their duty to take care of them. Also, the case was purchased in August, long after they introduced the new frame, which means that they should've requested re-sellers to send back defective inventory in order to proceed to a substitution, to avoid customers from purchasing old and weak items from stores.

I hope they understand this and finally change their policy when it comes to customer service... Right now I'm in Spain and I can't really deal with the store in Seattle... :mad:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] atomic2mod:
Cheaply made

I ordered my Spigen Neo-Hybrid from Spigen directly, before the S4 actually even hit the stores. I got it weeks into having my phone and was sorely disappointed in the quality of the case. I got the silver one, and it fits so very loosely, it ALWAYS comes out of the case, when I carry it in my pocket.

While it's very sleek and thin, it does add a lot of bulk to the width of the device. I don't trust that it will protect my phone at all, and find it a waste of my money. I will certainly never order from them again.

I recently found a fake Ned Hybrid, and it's a shame to see, that the quality and fit surpasses that so-called certified warrantied case.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Theoriginalgiga:
Just an FYI, the DO NOT support their product if purchased through another vendor (including amazon) and it's only a 90 warranty. In order to have warranty coverage you MUST buy from their website. I like their screen protectors but won't spend more than $5 or $6 for them because of the crappy warranty coverage. I have a Neo Hybrid and the back is pulling away from the phone. I'll use it until I find another case I like. I might just go back to Seido or otterbox, much better warranties and the material never warped for me.

SPIGEN warranty link, look under "What is SPIGEN SGP’s warranty policy?"

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Caferacer:
This is why many people are resorting to using Aliexpress and picking up multiple fakes. At least with the fakes if something happens you are out $7 instead of $20 or $50.

In the mean time my $7 Armorview case is holding up just dandy.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Theoriginalgiga:
you're lucky I ordered 2 through them and they never arrived. Aliexpress kept telling me to wait until the delivery date before opening a dispute and when I did it auto accepted the order and I can't do anything about it now. I'm talking with my bank about doing a back charge to Aliexpress. Long story short, I was burned and I'm a little pissy.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Caferacer:
Look in the armor slimview thread for some trusted sellers. Wading in without knowing trusted sellers can get you burned. Ebay is another choice as well; I prefer them for faster shipping and more buyer protection. For instance, I ordered from these guys and my case has held up very well, and they are a US seller. Be aware they are fakes, but they came from the improved run.

http://www.ebay.com/usr/bestbrandusa
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Theoriginalgiga:
I ordered using a trusted link and many people had ordered from. I'm just an unlucky schmuck that got burned. I'll order another one again, probably off of eBay and one from the states because PayPal doesn't cover most international purchases.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] CyberManiaK:
I got my hybrid Neo today.. bought on Amazon but sold from Spigen SGP.. So can anyone confirm if this is the "reinforced version"

And also I notice this minor "design flaw" in the TPU slevee, exactly where the headphones goes, it seams like the tpu and the hard shell doesn't align very good, even without the phone.. So anyone else is like this. ?

Sure this is not a big problem.. however I though it was going to be almost perfect like the one I have for my GS2...

Cheers.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Adam0524:
I bought the Neo Hybrid about month and a half to 2 months ago straight from Spigens site and this is what mine looks like. Yours does look "reinforced" compared to mine but I'm not sure which is which really.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] CyberManiaK:
Yeah it looks like mine is the "reinforced" one, lets wait to see if someone can confirm.. But yours looks like mine on the headphone hole ? that little gap between the hard shell and the tpu..

How long did it take you guys to receive a response... I contacted them 2 days ago from their help desk thing and still haven't receive a response.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jproy12:
It took me a week to get an answer from them...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] rahlquist:
I can confirm you got the new design with the reinforcement.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] rahlquist:
I wouldnt hold my breath. The last comment I left them was on 09/04 and since then I have gotten two canned responses on 09/06 that read;

AFAIAC they are acting like frauds. They produced a weak, sub par, and possibly defective product, and wont stand behind it. This BS about "if you didnt buy direct from us" is just a way to try to push us to give up. That's fine, in the end they have bought my loathing for the cost of a $.50 piece of plastic and some shipping. I will be sure to share my experience long and loud.

Personally I wont give them another cent of business until they change their high handed finger at their customers. Matter of fact dealing with them makes me feel dirty. Obviously the company has issues internally as well. Lets face it, the SlimArmor knockoffs were on sale on Ebay before the SlimArmor was shipping in volume for most. That fact and the extreme closeness of the knockoff to the real design makes me wonder if a lot of the knockoffs were just out of spec runs that were dumped on the market as 'fakes'.

They continue daily to run their mouths about their new products and ignore their past customers, obviously with a pile of crap product we are likely to have to replace during the life of our device this isnt very forward thinking. Thats ok they are choosing to act this way.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Lobster!:
So sorry for replying so late, I've been going out a ton and have had no time for my S4 :(

Yes, you do have the reinforced one, welcome to the club. :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] sorg:
Spigen uses white plastic to paint it into dark color (mine is Metal Slate). Very dumb! Respectable company would use plastic of close color, so scratches won't be so visible.

So, actually Spigen is very similar to chinese cheap manufacturer. Just charging more for their cheap cases pretending as a good company.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] rkennison:
They are simply importing the cheap crap and reselling it directly with a fancy box to charge you 3x more then it's worth.

I quit using them long long ago for anything but screen protectors.... and even then, I'll try a few locally first.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] SammySack:
I ordered mine direct from the Spigen site back in May, it lasted about a month before it cracked. In July I ordered a replacement frame through Amazon. This one has also cracked around the USB. I contact Spigen through Amazon. I got a reply within a day and they are going to send me a one time replacement.

Hopefully I get a re-enforced version to hold me over until I find another case that I like.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] scott_0:
I've said it several times, and I'll keep asking what the hell some of you guys are doing to break these bands, I have my case off/on daily with no issues at all, maybe buy an otterbox........
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tenaciousj:
After plugging my charger in a few times I could tell it wasn't going to last so I sold mine right away. Spigen, never again.

Mine is great. I broke my first band and can confirm it is painted not molded with the color. The pics s posted above show a crap product, defect or fake possibly? I ordered 3 frames yellow red and slate/blue -broken. My fault as i dropped it onto grating from about 6 feet. I will never get a different case though. I love this one too much.

I tried the cheap one on eBay first it was off at the USB and headphones similar to the one above. Also was floppy around the phone didn't fit snug. I knew it was fake cause it said NED HYBRID.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Eris _2.1_2010:
Sadly I can confirm as well the metal slate is white under the paint. Did a scratch test inside the frame. Although it did take some effort on my end to get to the white plastic underneath. Turned grayish blue before revealing the white plastic.

I also ordered a fake Spigen Slim Armor View from Aliexpress, it´s been 2 weeks now but I´ve heard China Post takes 3 weeks at least :(

Which color did you get? I ordered the only matte finish possible for the fake versions, as far as I know: the blue/purple color.

Because I just couldnt wait and wanted a black color to go with my black S4 I ended up also ordering the genuine Black Matte version from Amazon UK (I know, I wont be getting the 90 days warranty) and this way I can compared both the genuine and the fake versions directly. Did you get to see a real one so you could compare both?

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] scott_0:
lol in what way are you plugging your charger in that would make the band break? there are rare occasions that I do charge my phone with the cable, I just don't see HOW plugging the cable in would break the band..........please explain, because I'm confused as hell

---------- Post added at 08:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:04 PM ----------

same here! I don't charge my phone too often with the cable, but I do remove the case once a day and it it's fine coming off and going on, I'm just confused by how some members are treating these cases or more specifically the bands to break them
