Ordered mine 2 days ago,have to wait till the middle of January though but looking at the design and reading the reports about it looks like it´ll be worth waiting for.Also ordered the Neo Hybrid Case in Reventon Yellow,,the S-View for work and the Hybrid case for home :good:

Got one yesterday for free. I do like it but not sure how good it will be if I root my phone and flash a new rom. Does the case support wireless charging? I noticed 2 little metal connectors inside the case when I was fitting it
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] nielsvg:
That i know. I already got an s view cover with the s4. But yesterday i got to see a list of calls on my s view cover with note 3
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] stanglifemike:
My phone is rooted, running JellyBombed Rom, and all S-View functions still work perfectly. You should have no problems with a custom Rom UNLESS they removed something that allows S-View functionality.

For wireless charging, most Qi Receivers will not work without modifying them first. With the TechMatte Qi Receiver, no modifications are needed! It works straight out of the pack because TechMatte leaves the contacts open on the back side too! Here is an Amazon link to the TechMatte Qi Receiver : http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00GMRXD9U/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1387747207&sr=8-1

I started a thread about the S-View Cover and the TechMatte Qi Receiver, and posted pics in that thread as well.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Toys Samurai:
Long story short -- I got a cheap S-View case from China. It does work with S-View. When I close the case, S-View comes up. When I open the case, S-View is gone. However, S-View also comes up when I fold the cover to the back. No Good! My question is, does the real Samsung S-View have the same problem? If not, I am going to buy the real thing.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ionutzm05:
Just tried with my new case. S View won't come up if I fold it to the back (it's a genuine one).

I wanted to try one of the Yesso ones on amazon but I can't find them on there anymore.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] int_architect:
Amazon pulled them because of their similarity to Samsung's S-View. I suspect Samsung initiated this action. So, you won't find any Yesoo S-View cases, but they have other cases.

^^I agree! I've never tried, but a razor knife was the first thing that came to mind when I read your post. Why do you want to remove the window/screen from your flip cover anyway? I've never thought about removing it from mine, nor would I want to.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] marbedMB:
I.'ve just bought mine s-view from XQISIT from local store. The weird thing is there is no such a product at their web site product list. Leather made front cover and back with some pretty good plastic bumper around (it does not replaces original cover). S-view feature is not working about lack of ic module . S-pen works on glass window but finger touch is not which is bad. So even buying IC module does solve a half way of functionality which is not worth many to spend imho.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] fatboy547:
Has anyone been able to hack the s view to add more functions we can do in the window?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] VirusZer0:
The ONLY thing I don't like about mine is the fact that I can't use GPlay Music. Since I'm rooted, I froze the Sammy Music app so now there is no widget for music on the S-View window at all.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] amebiasis:
Just curious I'm looking into getting a wallet style flip case, are there any cases out there that anyone has seen that have slots for a card or two and the sview function. I don't have an sview case so I'm not sure if there'd even be room, thanks!

Using a razor would work, but check if the window is just placed in. You might be able to pop it out

Even the OEM ones do that.

Spigen sells a magnet that fixes this issue... Mine will be here on the 3rd. Just go to Amazon and type Spigen Note 3 magnet... or go to Spigen website.

The reason that I will remove the plastic window is because mine became scratched on the first day. I bought a knockoff on eBay so maybe that's why it scratched so easily. I remember removing the built in otterbox screen protector for one of my previous phones and how the case was awesome afterward.

S View window not working

Hi guys. Just bought an S view flip cover for my note 3. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to make it work.

I mean, the phone's screen turns on and off when I open and close the case, as expected, and when I am in the middle of a call, or when a call comes through, it shows up within the window of the case. I just cant get the s view window to come on when I press the power button!

I mean, when the case is closed and the screen is off, when I press the power button, the screen turns on but the mode it is in is as though there was no flip cover, the whole screen turns on asking for the unlock pattern as normal, but obviously I cant use that screen cos I can only see it through the window of the cover! I've been looking at the reviews, and I see people having the small mini screen show up where they can swipe left to access the camera, music player controls etc all through the window, but I cant get any of that.

Anyone got any idea?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] unlockingsky:
ebay has a view flip on sale already. it looks kinda cheap =\

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] H0rn:
I don't like the look of the flip cover tbh looks kinda cheap as someone previously said
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] wiimonkey9:
That was me I think. Yeah, they are colors that are not official, so they are 100% confirmed to be fake. However, as someone earlier said, for the price they might be worth it. When I get mine I'll let you know how it is. I'll compare it with the official one when that hits stores.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] singh_21:
very expensive

it costs 3000 rs in inda (50$) , complete rip off.

Samsung earning good with accessories also.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] H0rn:
I had an official note 2 flip cover and that was great but got pretty annoying after a while as on a flat surface it wouldn't stay shut on its own. But I like the idea of being able to see part of the screen with the note 3 one.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ionutzm05:
I just don't care about the price but those fake cases on eBay look amazing. I hate the original Samsung S View Flip Cover because it has a square form. The one available here looks much better : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Leather-Fli...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item19e2a33007 .

The original one :

The fake one :

I'm wondering if a fake case like the one on eBay can affect something on the phone. Also, the NFC is on the back cover (like the Note 2) or directly on the phone?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bowhunter3210:
I like the real s view case.. looks like it has a lip around the phone for protection
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] xwonic:
I know note 3 has the option to take pictures with the s-view screen but when you turn the front side to the back it covers the camera, i wish was just a tinny larger screen plastic.

like this guy shows in his video of an s4

instead of pushing just ad more transparent plastic

I like the S-View case for my Note 3 its a nice one....to use
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] legrunt:
Solved

Faulty cover. There are some electronic shenanegans in the back of that case, two contacts that the original rear cover doesnt have.

For some reason, that particular case was acting up. Went to a shop, asked to try it out on one of their demo phones, and it had the same behaviour. One of the customer service guys was there with his own unit, tried out his cover on my phone and bingo, everything as expected.

Went back to the shop I got it from, tried out another case, same issue. Had a open 3 boxes before they found one that worked as expected.

So guys, looks like there's a batch of faulty covers out there. Beware!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bowhunter3210:
Other than the problem you had, is it worth the price? How much? Is it real leather?

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kawaisa:
has anyone compared the real s-view to a fake one? does the materials compare? (plastic screen, faux-leather etc)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
The faux leather is very similar, different colours, different batch have a slight variations, as for the plastic frame cover, it depends on the fake one, some are 1 to 1 identical, some are slightly different, what really is different is the name and wording that is pressed on the leather, some are so identical, but you need to put them side by side to see it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] christianpeso:
See if you can make the S-View work with other DPIs correctly. I set my DPI to 400 and when I had the official Samsung S-View case, there was a black border around 2 of the sides in the window case the DPI messed with it.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bampah:
I have just bought a cheapo s-view cover for my Note2 LTE from eBay but it didn't work. (The advert did state that it was for the N7100 but it was cheap enough for me to give it a try on my N7105).

I then installed HatRoid's app and it worked fine....... except for when the cover is fully closed.

It turns on OK from about 2 cm out but the moment the case fully closes, s-view disappears and I can see the home screen (or part of it) through the window.

It will not work at all from the lock screen.

Frustrating.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
I think you have posted in the wrong thread, and the note 2 does not have s view features.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bampah:
Sorry about that but the HatRoid app is supposed to get around that problem.

Hmm... I have been using an official S-View cover for 2 weeks

There is a permanent but really faint square on the glass surface now, I can't figure out how to get rid of it. It is only visible when the screen is off and you look really carefully.

I suggest people avoid this product.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] k4syx:
Any chance for a photo?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kevin Roscom:
I've been searching around but I just can't figure out what the launch process is for the S View window. Is it an apk that gets loaded? I know parts of it are in framework-res.apk but is that where all s-view data is stored? I wanted to look into running a custom apk file when the hall sensor detects the magnet in the case. It all seems a lot more complex than it should be.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kawaisa:
That's why you should use a screen protector. It's not a s-view case defect. Unless you're always in an air tight environment, stuff like that's gonna happen.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] refinition:
I think it'd be hard to capture it on a photo if it's as faint as he makes it out to be

I received some fakes last week.

The quality is of course lower than the original i bought when i purchased my Note 3.

Major problem is the hight battery drain of Android OS, it's terrible!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
it depend on who makes the cover, I just goot one 1 to 1 identical, the only differences, my fake one looks like real leather.

but buying online you have to accept what the sellers states, until you actually receive them.

not sure how you can get a batttery drain.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] roswell782:
I bought them at Aliexpress, luckily they accept the refund.

The Android OS drain is every time i put the fake one, i google it and saw i wasn't the only one.

Swipe to the right when there is a notification.

Anyone noticed that with official 4.4.2 it is no longer possible to wake device with s-view cover by pressing home (through the cover - yes, that's doable, especially if you're rocking glasst.r with button sticker)?
