Waterproof Seido

I too am watching the Seido Waterproof case. The website shows video of the S3, but the case under development is definitely for the Note3.

Seido Water Proof case for NOTE 3 under development

I bought and returned the Trident Kraken AMS series Mil Spec case for the Note3. "independently tested" their website states. More like NEVER TESTED for NOTE3.

Trident changed the design from the other AMS cases that might be "rainproof". They don't cover up the speaker, the reset port, or the microphone. How the hell is that rainproof?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Pehpe:
Hm, looks nice! Is Seido a good case-manufacturer?

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 / Stock-ROM / rooted / JB 4.3 / Austria (we don't have kangaroos!)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] joelstitch:
I think Seidio is a great case manufacturer. On all my phones I get a Seidio case for them because they are very tough and we'll made.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] edansgrampa:
Seidio Waterproof

The Seidio Obex case for the Galaxy Note 3 is under development as is the belt clip. Total cost will be $89.95 for both items or $79.95 for just the case.

Check out the Seidio web site - I cannot post the link - and you'll find out more information.

:good: Looks pretty nice but no mention of release date.

Hope that helps!

was just reading this and I agree this is a good way to go!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Tiamath99:
I love waterproof cases, i think i had most of them for my iphones and Galaxy series and one of the cases i was more satiffied with is the Seidio Obex for my Galaxy s4. When you test it for the first time it feels way too bulky, much more than others but its the best. Its durable, easy to remove and put back on, the screen protector fits perfectly on the screen and has some interesting properties that repel water making it very useful when wet, the sound is not too mufled.... All other cases have disturbing issues, bad sound, screen protectors that doesnt lay flush or my favorite with Lifeproof cases for galaxys, a extremelly innecesary raised besel that makes the smartphone very hard to operate.

I just ordered a Redpepper case for the Note, this is a company known for making cheap clones of the lifeproof case for iphone, we will see, ill post my comments here as soon as it arrives.

The Seidio Obex for the note 3 looks exactly the same as the one for my S4 (except for the S-pen port) and that is good news.

I did that with my Galaxy Nexus.

But, when I got my phone back, you could clearly see an "imprint" of an iphone 4 face on the front glass of my screen.

My guess is that they stack a bunch of phone on top of each other and then do their process.

That's a pretty crappy procedure considering how much they charge.

No matter how much I tried to wipe the screen, I had a permanent iphone 4 ghost image on top of it.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
I have one right now and it works 100%
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] airmaxx23:
I've had one for a few weeks and it works as advertised. I tested mine by leaving it in 3 feet of water for 20 minutes and the paper towel was dry afterwards. Definitely worth the price.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] xperiaforme:
If only it had an opening for the S pen. I can't live without my S pen.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
That's the only let down but I use it only when I go to the pool beach or biking and it rains but really who will use their S pen at those locations?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] redrapt0r:
how is the video/picture quality with the redpepper cases? Id imagine for such cheap money, they would cut corners, and I feel like the clarity of the cover for the screen and/or lense would be less than stellar.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
I took that with the case on its the same as without the case it presses flush against the cut outs no extra piece blocking the view
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] chriskader:
I want to post a tip for everyone in this thread: A truly waterproof/water resistant case for this phone is not going to cost less then $60-80. All of these $15 "waterproof" cases on eBay are most likely scams. There is NO WAY a company is selling a truly waterproof/water resistant case that cheap. My suggestion is to wait for a known company like Otterbox or LifeProof to release a case that will meet the standards in which you want.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
Lol good one seidio released their case 80$ had it for a week in and out my pocket the rubber started to wear then I read about a redpepper case for 27.99 that's super cheap so figured hey why not then the case came took it out to the pool kept it in my pocket in 3 feet water for about 30 minutes then I decided it's pretty good but that wasn't enough I'm like hey why not throw it out a building window it touch the ground and we'll the outcome is 27.99 for the case and here I am writing with the phone that still works 100% with the case on it no issues and yes I sent back the obex 80$ one because I already seen over time wear and tear then when it's done my phone will get wear and tear. Then 80$ went up in smokes. For example bose speakers are really expensive I bought some jbl speakers for less than the bose yet it out performs the bose. So lesson is expensive isn't always better.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] redrapt0r:
Totally unrelated, but +1 for JBL. 60 bucks for a BT speaker vs 200+, and the JBL sounds better. Yeah I like my money too much to throw it away.

The redpepper case might end up being a flop, but if it is, than it was a 28 dollar mistake rather than an 80 dollar mistake.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] chriskader:
I tend to believe that other factors where in play during your experience. I have been a dedicated owner of either Seidio or Lifeproof cases (LifeProof for iPhone, Seidio for Android) and I have never had one issue. Companies like Seidio do not become popular by making crappy cases.

As far as JBL vs BOSE, I am not an expert by any means so I will not even touch that.

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 PM ----------

I would rather take my chances with a case from a company with a proven track record to protect my $800 phone.

One last thing I want to point out: The redpepper cases I am finding look like VERY cheap Lifeproof knock-offs.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] redrapt0r:
Im not trying to defend anyone or anything, but I dont think he was attacking Seidio. They are well known as a case manufacture but this particular case might not be well made enough. Plus its the first run of Note 3 waterproof cases for them, it might just be a QC issue. Ragardless, if the Obex gets better, or has less problems on the scale it has now (Seems like the majority of people are less than impressed) or drops in price, I will probably pick one up.

From the research Ive done within the last few days, thats probably true. But people are looking for a waterproof case, for cheap and that works as advertised, and it seems to do that and quite well for the price. Again this is just me going off what little research Ive done and what Ive gathered from others on this forum.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] chriskader:
Take a look at the YouTube videos they have for some of there cases. Like this one: Link That is not even a real iPhone, its a demo phone with a fake screen on it.

I am trying to prevent imposter companies like Redpepper from selling products that are cheap and clearly knock-off products.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] redrapt0r:
Most companies, especially those making cases for a wide variety of phones will use dummy phones to display their cases. Its cheaper than having one of each individual working (500+ dollar) phone. If I were buying a waterproof case for an S4, Iphone, or any other phone that has a strong enough market presence, thank I would go with the real deal. But the truth is that this particular case from them seems to be an original or atleast based on a case I have yet to see being made.

If I had the 80 bucks to blow on the Obex, I would buy it. But The truth is that this particular case seems to be better received here on XDA than the Obex at less than half the cost. Thats worth the risk. Its either the cheaper cases for water proofing, which again seem to have some decent traction, or nothing. And I would like to have something that will probably work well than nothing around when I want to take pictures/video on my camping trip, possibly missing out on important things I want to cherish.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] chriskader:
Companies like LifeProof and Seidio do not use "dummy" phones in the demo videos. Redpepper is using fake phones to show off the cases ability to protect against water, dust, drops and everything. I am sorry but this company is REALLY sketchy to me. Take a look at the YouTube video in the product I linked in my previous post and you will see what I am talking about. Take a further look at the products they sell, 90% of the are Lifeproof knockoffs with packing that almost mirrors them.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] redrapt0r:
I realize what you are saying. Ive done my research relatively extensively over the last couple of days. If I was buying without any recommendations from actual people who have bought and used it, I would be in the same boat as you. But since the case seems to be well regarded by more than a few people on this forum, it seems totally fine. And if its not, its 30 bucks wasted and not 80.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
Not saying in anyway that redpepper case is authentic but if it isn't then they b did a good job with the knock off want to head over to the obex review and see opinions on the case?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
If I was on vacation I would have did a video with my phone in it and go even play football with my phone like I said I had obex and the galaxy s4 obex the galaxy s4 obex was on point the note 3 obex was rushed in my opinion
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Glen L:
Thanks for the input.

Just wondering, the screen has a cover?

Also is there any signal issues with and without the case?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
No signal issues ass it's plastic the screen has a pretty good plastic
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Glen L:
Thanks!

I was considering this over the LoveMei. Although LoveMei says it has gorilla glass. but I read there's signal issues.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
I had the love mei too it's not really waterproof it's splash proof I lost my gps signal and only had 2 bars outside and tmobile tower is like .2 miles away that's really close so it was a issue this case well I haven't found a issue yet with it all buttons function with plastic and my screen protector it responds well only thing I don't like Is the whole unscrewing the headphone cover and having to safekeeping it you get two of them but that's kind of a downer but it's really light and I dropped it on concrete and still good.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] TeleFragger:
still nothing? i so need a case and would love a lifeproof... but cmon like for real.. they need to make it soon....
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] troyd28:
They already have one I forgot to close this thread it's redpepper on ebay.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Makron:
I almost bought one of the red pepper cases. I figured for $20 it wouldn't hurt to have just in case. I realized at the very last moment that you can't get the s-pen out with case on. This may seem obvious to most but I completely missed it and it decide not to get it. Just something to note.

Video/Audio Recording Mod​

OS Version: TW 4.2.2 (will be making a 4.3 version soon)

Notice: Higher bitrates increase file sizes. Please keep this in mind when recording. We should all know this by now so I won't say anything else about it.

Also I suggest recording to internal memory if you're external sdcard has low write speeds. eg. you're using one from 5 years ago.

1080p

New (Stock)

Video:22 Mbps (17 Mbps)

Audio: 320 kbps (128 kbps)

1440x1080 (4:3)

Video:17 Mbps (13 Mbps)

Audio: 320 kbps (128 kbps)

720p

Video:15 Mbps (12 Mbps)

Audio: 320 kbps (128 kbps)

Audio Info

:

Sampling Rate: 48 kHz on all which is stock.

Channels: 2

I'm probably going to drop the 1440x1080 profile and just take 720p to 17 Mbps since I don't think anyone uses that resolution much. Also, the FPS is still 30 but I'll try to increase it. There is the option for 6 channels using LPCM but I'm leaving it at 2. My first attempt using 6 channels came up with nothing useful and I'm not sure what the quality will be like anyway.

Questions:

Will this work with 4.3?

Yes it should. I'm not using a 4.3 Rom so let me know. I'll make one for 4.3 soon.

Will this work with an AOSP Rom?

No. You need TW framework to use it.

Can this be done for AOSP Roms?

Not really. The bitrates and such are more kernel/HW controlled in AOSP. Yes, a kernel could be made to adjust the properties of the gallery (camera) app but I don't mess with kernels - at all. Not my thing. That being said - it was done on the Nexus 4 and I'll post the link here when I find it if someone wants to try.

Any bugs or issues so far?

None that I've ran in to and I've been using/testing this for about a month now.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] nealix58:
I just got the GN 10.1 2014 tablet. Looks great, works great.

I am VERY new to the video game. I want to encode some DVDs and Blurays and move them onto this thing.

Apparently the free encoding app called HandBrake needs specific settings for each model tablet?

Where do I find settings for the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014?

A friend gave me a file he made with Handbrake that he encoded as an .mp4 for his Amazon Kindle Fire HD.

If I try to drag/drop copy that file from my PC over to the Galaxy Note 10.1, a dialog window comes up on the PC

saying that it will "convert" the file and take 2 hours. Why would it need to convert it, if the file is already a full HD

mpeg4? Or, is that the part about needing custom settings for each android device, to use in handbrake?

Ideally, I want to learn how to set the settings in Handbrake so that the completed file will SIMPLY copy over to

the galaxy note in a few minutes (normal file copy), and NOT be re-converted a second time.

Where would I learn about the settings needed for the Handbrake app?

I can see from google that several of the high-cost video encoder apps have already added a "profile" for this tablet.

But, Handbrake is free, if we can learn the proper settings.

Sincere Thanks,

Neal
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] andyzarins:
Hi

Have a search on the internet for nexus 10 hand brake settings. Both tablets have the same screen resolution and the nexus has been out longer so the setting should be readily available. If you have a MPEG4 it should already play it on the samsung the only advantage of using handbrake is to reduce the file size whilst maintains the quality. Ripping your own DVD's and converting the for your tablet can be time consuming. I do not condone piracy at all but if you already own the physical DVD or blu ray to be honest you may be better down loading a digital copy. Someone else would of done the hard work of ripping and converting the files for you.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] madsquabbles:
what i liked about the old galaxy note was that i didn't have to convert anything. everything played fine on it. this refresh doesn't support ac3 audio any more. you may be able to get by without conversion if you use mobo, mx, or buy archos player and us the free codec app. i know the archos has played everything so far.

Here is everything you need.

Team Win Recovery Project 2.6, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jpradley:
Well when I first started with rooting and installing ROMs, I was totally thrown by "simple instructions" like those. You first have to understand that there's some semantic overload in 'fastboot'. It is a STATE into which you put an Android phone, and it is also a COMMAND that you then run from a computer connected to that phone by a USB cable.

You have to download an Android SDK (software developemnt kit ; easy to find using Google) to your computer. In a subfolder, you'll find the fastboot comand. In that same subfolder, place that .img file mentioned above. You'll have it easier if you shorten its name, e.g. make a copy called twrp.img.

Shut down the phone. Reboot it while pressing Power and VolumeDown at the same time. This gets you to the "HBOOT' state. Press VolDown once onto the FASTBOOT label, then press Power to get into the 'fastboot' state.

Connect phone to computer via USB. then change into that subfolder where you have the fastboot command and the .img copy. Now you can type "fastboot recover twrp.img".

Reboot the phone as above, Power+VolDown. This time use the Volume buttons to select RECOVERY, and you should be running TWRP.
