In case anyone was looking for a protective and attractive looking case like I was, Spigen has some very nice options coming out later this month for our phone. I ordered the Slim Armor :)

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Muscleduck:
Their cases look too flimsy and don't have a big enough lip to protect the screen imo but I'll be buying one to bridge the gap between now and the release of the Otterbox.

Their glass screen protectors DO look awesome, but a bit pricy.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] tmb993:
Didn't mean to hit thanks. But IMO the Otter box is too rediculous. I like some protection but I'd still like to be able to put the phone in a pants or suit pocket. That's a no-go with the Otterbox.

That isn't really true from pictures and may seem like that. However my stepfather has an s4 with a case from them and it protects the screen
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
I ordered the Slim Armor too in Doger Blue. My Note is white. I think it will be a nice match. I'm really hoping for a Case Mate Tough Case, but time will tell.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] tmb993:
My Note 3 is black and I ordered the Metal Slate color. I am pretty bummed that it doesn't come out till towards the end of the month though. Just gotta be extra careful until then haha.

I've heard some bad things about Case Mate regarding their Note 2 cases and that their iPhone cases are flimsy and underwhelming. Have you had a better experience with them?

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
I thought the same thing. Be careful, and then I started poking around their site. Their Ebay store has the Neo Hybrid in stock, and on sale. I ordered one of those today. Now I'll have a good choice when I get both in. http://www.ebay.com/itm/261286359233
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RaptorMD:
BUT, are they actually in stock. Their Amazon.com page says not until next week and now they are saying they are in stock on eBay. Very confusing.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
In stock. My order already processed, and it's scheduled for delivery on or before 10/8.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DKYang:
Estimated between Thu. Oct. 31 and Mon. Nov. 4

This item has an extended handling time and a delivery estimate greater than 21 business days.

$5 more and horrible estimated shipping times. Maybe they only had one in stock and you got it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
Wow. Yeah look at that. I'm glad I didn't wait. I was going to wait until today. I guess word got out on them.

EDIT - And just so you don't think I made it up here's a pic. LOL
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DKYang:
The pic won't enlarge for me, but I trust you. Maybe their ebay team messed and had to ship yours out otherwise it would be a negative feedback.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
Could be. And yeah it won't enlarge for me now either, but if I right click and open in a new tab it works. Hmm. Anyway I'm happy right now. The UPS guy just delivered my phone. I'm charging it now. :D

Hi again, :D

Just been reminded that when I power up my phone I get an email saying that the SIM has been changed to 353375055129661 this appears to be Ireland :confused:

Can anybody explain this behaviour?

Cheers for now,

John
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sudd1976:
Dude,

Macaffee has an option to advise if the sim has been swapped or not, you should be able to turn it off, so long as you know the security pass code.

But I would uninstall it and get Dr web, much better in my opinion.

I know a few people here live in the Toronto area, so...

I ordered 2 bumper cases from China ($1.90 each) and I got 3 shipped to me, so I have an extra one I don't need.

The bumper is great. It fits well, and the two-tone red/black gives my black Moto X a cool look.

If anyone is in Toronto, and can meet me downtown in the Yonge St. area, you can have my extra Moto X bumper case.

Give us your impressions.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] diehardbattery:
So far, I am limited until my phone arrives later on this afternoon. Right now I am wearing it to see how it feels. I have large wrists so I had to use the furthermost hole in the band, but it fits well. It has a bit of weight to it, which for some, might take a little getting used to. The buckle also serves as the speaker.

If you're typing it can interfere with the wrist rests on your keyboard but your mileage might vary. I did power it on and take it outside to test outdoor visibility. It's sunny here in Houston today, I didn't see any issues, but again, it's just my preference.

It came with a 71% charge. I used the cradle to charge it to 100% which didn't take long at all. The watch is pretty much useless without the phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] diehardbattery:
Judging from a few comprehensive review I've seen yes it does have limitations like for the email. However this thing does have potential... At this rate though, checking the battery life will have to wait till tomorrow as I still don't have the phone...
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] JakeStGermain:
Yes if they are in the same position
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] diehardbattery:
Okay, so I finally have the phone! MMS messages get sent to the watch as a notification which you have to then transfer to the phone in order to look at the message.

Speaker quality is decent. I can hear it better in an indoor environment. I spent almost an hour on the watch having a conversation, and the battery only went down to 81% from 100.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] TeamPowerstroke:
Mine aren't aligned in the same position.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Ryland Johnson:
You mean you have all four screws with the groove in the screw head (looks like an - ) facing in the same direction? Only publicity pictures show that unless you are spending like 25,000€ on a watch that has external screws. I have, to date, never seen all groove heads facing in the same direction UNLESS they are false screw heads and just placed for show.

Those tiny screws have to be screwed down until they reach a given torque of tightness, that can leave the groove of the screw head in any direction. Don't use the publicity picture that is manufactured on a PC or a photo of demonstration watch etc.

I would have been concerned if they had all been in unison.:eek:

The GPS API gateway in I-Mate latest ROM (1.13.53 WWE) seems be missing.

If you search in JasJars help under the term GPS, you will be directed to [settings/system/GPS/etc.) but the latest JJ ROM does not seem to have it there, unless I'm missing something.

As result, I can pair a BT GPS, outbound it to P4, inbound to P8, but these ports can not be detectable by a GPS software who does not recognize these virtual ports.

Any advice ?

Something looks wrong with the BT GPS connection on the IMate JJ, latest ROM.

- After revealed the hidden GPS applet, thx. to Tekflow !! (why hide it, maybe cause it doesn't work ?)

- Paired 2 different BT GPS devices (RT RBT1000/GS BT-338) to JJ

- Chosen as Outbound Port - Com 4/Inbound Port Com 8 (not that otherwise possible)

- On GPS Applet set common virtual GPS port to Com 9

- Nav S/W (tried 2 different) actually DOES NOT recognize either BT GPS

On the IPaq 27xx, with a Beta WM5 and Widcom excellent and user friendly BT stack, all works like a charm..

Or maybe I am doing something wrong.

Pls help..

Thx.,

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] sagig:
Hi Saar,

I read about this quite a lot looking to find a solution for the problem. It looks like the Destinator cannot see the required COM port in the list. Even when activating the GPS API with the registry it doesn't help.

For destinator there is a solution, for NavNGo I couldn't find one so if you know something I'll be happy to hear.

What you need to do is to open the file destinator.ini with HEX editor and manually change the COM port to the one you need (same one you created when you paired the device I guess it is 8)

and then it will work.

You can find further info here:

http://www.mtekk.com.au/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7600&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=10

Is DestinatorPN looking fine on your device ? When I tried the menu was all messed up, maybe because of the VGA ?

I could only work with ver 3.0.75

by the way, I wonder why you don't post a question in pocketpcfreak you prefer writing in english more than your own language? ;)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] a18041967:
Just been playing with this myself, connected my BT receiver to COM:8 and share this using COM:0, TomTom V5 sees both ports but only manages to talk to the GPS receiver on the physical port ie COM:8 not the virtual port COM:0.

Also can anyone explain why most of the COM port are unavailable when pairing BT devices.

And whats QCT Data Interface & RIL Port ? ?

Thanks

Destnator PN and WM5

Hi Sagi,

Thx. a bunch. Tried it to the letter with DPN..had a moment of hope, but it was a short one. Unfortunately.

I'm hanging out here, as I doubt if anybody could answer it on the local forums...you see... I'm usually the Q/A master..so if I don't know...well, you see my point...:-)

Anyway, the problem with the "spread" menus has been fixed.. Destinator PN "X" menus look smooth on the JJ (it's a beta of the next version to come soon). I have inside sources..

However I've used a large part of my box of tricks to make DPN work on WM5, with MS GPS API, and BT Stack, but nada...:-(

Of course we could dig deeper into this, but I assumed somebody may already'd have a clue. That's why we're here for, no ?

Again, thank you,

===========

Saar
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] sagig:
No problems.

In the mean time you can use 3.0.75 it works fine with the tricks mentioned above.

When you have a perfect solution I'll be the first to try it. I like "Nehama" much better than TT5.

If you need another beta tester for the new ver on the JJ just let me know ;)

Sagi
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] SaarAvigour:
Thx. again.

In fact hex editing the ini fili causes the software to behave just as in your mail..... less actually connecting the GPS. I guess it's a starting point, I'll pass the info to our RD.

Hi Saar!

im having the same problem with Jasjar + navNgo using BT-338

for some reason the program cannot find the gps .

i tried contacting the guys at GPS&more to get support but still no luck.

:cry:

Maybe you got more luck than me and can help me?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] chosl:
I've just tested with PocketStreets 2005 and that works allright with Jasjar and Globalsat BT-338 after unhiding the GPS in the controlpanel. I set the com port to 8.

Hoooowever... I have serious problems with getting the correct coordinates when using the wm5 gpsapi.dll (gpssample in wm5 sdk). The same sample works 100% with a wm5 qtek 2020 and wm5 qtek 9090.

Anyone noticed anything similar? Or know of a gps app that uses wm5 gpsapi?

/Cheers
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] SaarAvigour:
JasJar GPS API

David K:

No solution yet, tried also with RBT1000 BT GPS. Outbound Port: Com4, GPS Program Port: Com 9. Same behaviour.

To further focus on the problem, we've uninstalled Destinator and installed a straightforward GPS monitoring App. (Vito Navigator 2). Auto scanning detects Port 9, but does not detect a GPS signal on this port, either from GS-BT338 or RT RBT1000. This excludes the possibility of a problem with D or NG apps.

This also seems to be a hint for a ROM/Hardware problem. I hope it ain't. We're also investigating with HW manufacturer. I'll update if resolved.

===============

Saar
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] a18041967:
This is very similar to TomTom, it can see the GPS COM port, but no data is received....

TOMTOM

Actually I use TOMTOM now (5.1)

The software can see all COM ports and it works great with my BT GPS set to COM8 (it does not need the GPS API at all and I can disable it)

Version 5 had same problems as D or NNG and couldn't see the port. the new BT GPS cab file that came with new version solved this problem.

I still believe that it is a D and NNG software issue that can be fixed

I'll be happy to hear any updated from the HW manufacturer when you have them.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] dah54:
SaarAvigour;

Do you have access to an EMTAC BTGPS? I have this working.

You'll need to know the paring key to get this working for the Bluetooth GPS.

I believe you'll only need to setup an Outgoing COM port, I used 8

Microsoft Pocket Streets can be set to COM 8 and it should work.

Only after the GPS has a fix will the second port work, I set this up to COM 6 Pocket Streets can work with either COM 8 or COM 6.

Note that I had to delete the Incoming port I setup to get this to work.

Hope this helps some.

Hi Saar,

Since lots of people are trying to get it work, and tried to help you, it will be nice of you tel explain how you got it work for all other users who are still struggling ??
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] SaarAvigour:
gps

By all means, thought I did...sorry

Pair your GPS

Start/Settings/Connections/BT

Set GPS Serial Outbound Port to Com 8 (Com 4 possible, but was not detected by some specifically tested SatNav apps.)

Unhide your GPS Control Panel (still a mistery why some OEMs decided to hide it, and others not to)

Use a Registry Editor

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ControlPanel/GPS Settings

Unhide the GPS Control Panel by modifying from (1) to (0)

Confirm by exiting and saving (OK button)

Your GPS Control panel will feature now, in its all grace, in Settings/System

There's another modification suggested,that will put the pannel under Settings/connections, but why change the original setup

Set your GPS Virtual Port

Start/Settings/System/GPS

Leave Hardware as ("None")

Set Programs to Com 8

Save and Exit (OK)

Soft Reset

Probably a reason to lots of failures. Suspectedly, the GPS control panel makes changes to registry. No SR, and changes are non active.

Works for me with various SatNav apps. Here, case closed..:-)..

Thanks.

**EDIT** Okay, nevermind that question. I figured it was now in connections...

But, setting it to com 8 now means 2x Com 8 show when I run TomTom5, and neither seem to have GPS data on them...

When I go to BT manager, I can't delete outgoing port 8. Does that matter?
