[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mr.H0811:
I noticed the same thing. My son also has the same on his. I could not wait to get a case on it just to avoid any other dents or blemishes. Like you I babied my phone to the max. Fortunately the case covers the one small blemish...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] deeznutz1977:
Remember its plastic
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
Dings, chips, peeling etc are all mitigated by using a case.

The phone case is plastic which makes it work best for signals, light for lesser weight and provides some shock prevention when dropped. Metal cases, weaken signals, are typically heavier and don't provide much shock prevention when dropped (ie metal doesn't give).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dandan112988:
I see they sell middle housings to replace damaged ones. Same thing with back housing where the camera lens is. Problem is, how would you take the screen off the middle housing to replace just the housing. They sell a more expensive screen and middle housing combo, but for much more money and it's unnecessary if the current screen is perfect.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lightpsycho:
The chromed plastic bezel is indeed incredibly fragile...it kinda sucks actually. I'm waiting to get my Ballistic SG MAXX case and have had my phone for a month without protection now (it takes soooo long for the good cases to be released). I've been EXTRA careful but noticed that I slightly dented it just by putting the phone face down on a table...gently. So right now it's sitting either in my pocket or on a napkin on my desk so as not to scratch/dent the bezel or scratch the camera...can't wait to get my case.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Limeybastard:
Just remember, if anyone buys a hybrid case that is hard on the inside it will scuff the chrome bezel. I use soft on the inside and hard on the outside.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lightpsycho:
Yeah I know, learned this with Otterbox some years ago. Thankfully, Ballistic Cases are soft on the inside (as are Trident Case also).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dandan112988:
Any ideas on middle housing replacement?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Limeybastard:
Same here mate. After about a year with an otterbox defender I removed the iphone 4s from it and noticed scuffs on the corners of the phone. Lesson learned.

Looks like a complete strip down is required to change this part, part seems to be the main chasis of the handset.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dandan112988:
Any idea how to get the screen off of the existing?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Limeybastard:
Look on youtube. You need to find a video showing taking screen and digitizer off at the same time. You do not want to remove the glass only.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dandan112988:
No one has done it yet for the note 3 sadly. I wish it was like the note 2 where the back housing also covered the sides, so replacing the back housing replaced everything visible but the screen
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Limeybastard:
I know no one has done it yet. The principle as far as I am aware is the same, total strip down. Once stripped down put all the parts back in the new chasis.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dandan112988:
The stripping it down isn't too hard as far as back cover and internals . It's the Damn screen removal that scares me lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Limeybastard:
If it bothers you, I would perhaps sell your existing Note 3 and get another one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dandan112988:
Eh, I don't like using cases, makes the phone feel like crap. And with how delicate the chrome is, it is bound to show them. I just like to have a spare to swap out when mine gets bad, puts my mind at ease. Unfortunately it's very difficult to do with the chrome area on this phone as it's part of what's bonded to the screen, and not the back assembly
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DataHawg:
Very fragile indeed. I used a butter knife to lift off the battery door and dented it. Have had a cheap soft TPU case on it since day one though and I would not use it without one
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dandan112988:
Cases take away from the beauty and feel of the phone though
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbash79:
Hi Folks,

I recently upgrade the ROM to Stock Jelly Bean 4.3 (Ireland version) for Samsung Galaxy s3 i9300 and I had also purchased a 64 GB micro SD card which is class 10.

Before I flashed the ROM I had backed up all my data (pics, songs and videos) on my external hard drive.

When I copy all the files back to the my 64 GB sdcard..most of the file show to be corrupt and do not open with the respective app on my phone.

However there is nothing wrong with the files on the external hard disk they seem to be just fine.

Can someone tell me the reason for this and what I need to do to solve this issue..I have tried different formats like exFAT and FAT 32 but still the same issue..Please HELP:(

I swear they have something against Sony devices because it`s not compatible with my Sony Xperia Tablet Z neither.

What bugs me the most though is that it does work, there are alternate downloads around and they work great, but I want the official one that I paid for.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BensJammin:
It's strange as I was able to download on my Z but the Play is still a no go. I currently play it on my S7300 which is spoofed as an SGS2.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Miichaell:
The most curious thing is that the game has a controller support right for our Xplays, but in Play Store isn't compatible. There must be someone in Gameloft, who has no brain...
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Bakisha:
It is because how gameloft make games. To be compatible with lot of different phones they implement code for controls from previous games in early stage of development, but when make final product, they decide not be compatible with specific device because of hardware requirements.

They could make game downloadable from play store, but then they risk lot of 1 star comments like "zomg, game is soooooo laggy in my Xperia Play"

This should help you decide
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justiiin:
Too bad the Nexus 5 does not have a premium build quality like the One.

In fact, imo, there is no other phone (other then iPhone 5(s)) that can compete in terms of build quality.

I like running GPE ROMs on my One, cause I like stock Android.

To me, stock Android and the premium feel of the One is pretty much perfect.

But stock/Vanilla Android will never run as fluent on the One, then on a Nexus device.

So if your choice is dependent on how the software will run, I'd say the Nexus 5.

If I compare my friend's Nexus 4 to my One, even the Nexus 4 is more fluent and faster, only the way stock Android runs that is.

Cause in terms of raw processing power, the Nexus 4 does not come close to the One ofcourse.

If you want the best of both, and dont mind the loss of a bit speed in terms of UI, I'd say the One GPE.

I'd pick the Nexus 5 though.

The money you save with it, is worth it aswell.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prash8429:
I too would go for Nexus. What it loses in build, it more makes up more than enough in price and support.

So, if you are gonna buy nexus, i would recommend you to watch this video to decide whether to go for black or white http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBCaAq_pKjY

There are structural and build differences
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
Go with the nexus. I had nexus 4 but took my brothers one and he ordered the 5. The phone is amazing. I love the bigger/wider screen even though it has on screen buttons. I actually miss the onscreen button layout from my nexus 4. In terms of fluidity both phones are very fast but comparing stock vanilla Roms, nexus will always be better because of sense framework on the gpe. Nexus 5 also has the newest processor so it's more futureproof i suppose in that sense. And even if its by a couple weeks, Nexus gets updated first if that makes a difference to you. Development will also be better on nexus, I'd get it just for Franco kernel and touch control lol. I didn't test his phone out a whole lot but camera is on par with HTC one. I only took pictures in my basement and preferred the nexus over HTC. The true HDR+ feature works wonders.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pigr8:
waste of space, you loose a portion of the screen for nothing, One with the soft button is better.

wrong, 4.2.2 GPE had a sense base framework, with the 4.3 it's completly removed and stock so will be the 4.4

i think is overrated have 4x 2.3ghz cpu instead of a 4x 1.7, you can run everything even on a snapdragon 400.. the 800 is better ofc but an upgrade from the 600 is pointless.

two week difference is also not a good excuse to choose the N5 over the M7 GPE.

all major sites (android police, android autority, anand, theverge, ecc) and the best youtubers says that the 8mpx camera on the N5 is pretty crap, not hardware site but software site, like postprocessing and all that stuff and a major upgrade is waited to fix poor quality video/photo.

reviewers says also that the stock sound on the N5 is low (like the Galaxy Nexus problem) but could be fixed using custom roms/kernels.. i mean the loudspeaker and not music like but ringtones, Google wtf are you doing? Build quality is medium, back cover is nice touchy.. and the camera gap si a bad choice also.

M7 has a better build quality overall, will have the same os with the GPE conversion and OTA (~15 days), better sound (a lot better), screen is a full 1080p with external buttons, you could switch to Sense if needed.

the only thing i wish i could have on the M7 converted is the amoled display with the Moto X active notification, that would be fantastic.

PRO for the N5? the price.

oh yes, the always listening feature: only works on EN-US, and extra US Google Now is pretty useless atm.

ps: in my country M7 could be found starting from 430€ new, the N5 is 350€ from Play Store.. no kidding.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
Your preference of capacitive buttons is pure opinion you can't say which will be better for him. I liked it because it's faster navigation ( no holding down home for Google now, menu or recents). Plus I used 180 flip on nexus 4 and my buttons would always be on the bottom. Also, I didn't know 4.3 removed sense framework but how is beats working? I didn't really test camera that much just took a few snaps and I read the Engadget review and they said it had better snaps than HTC one in some situations (not always obviously). Wheni talked about the camera I meant my personal preference I'm not a photography expert. The htc one increases light exposure hence better night pics but from what I've seen in the time I have used it is light from different sources gets distorted. For example, in the basement the picture came out good but light from the TV was too bright and from the light bulbs too and this created distortion in that area only. With the nexus I was still able to pick up the same quality image but without the distortion on the TV screen and around the light bulbs. Build quality I agree HTC is better but heavier depends on preference again. The plastic isn't that bad it has a good feel to the back and doesn't squeak like most galaxy phones. I didnt test external speakers/sound output but nexus 4 was poor so i hope they would've learbed from it. Although faux and Franco kernels fixed any problems I had so the same can be done with nexus 5. Again, you can't just write off the processor as no big deal. It is a step up and should be considered especially since the newer hardware is cheaper than the old. And he's not upgrading from a 600 he's choosing betweens phones that have 600 and 800. All depends on what he needs in a phone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pigr8:
Someone blames HTC for not having navbar on the One, i would never understand this.. ok it's my opinion, like what i'm thinking about the navbar on tablets, but it's another story.

Camera on N5 will probably fixed with a better postprocessing engine, not that big deal, but sound is really an issue.. and kernels are not an excuse because a lot of people just stay on Stock Rom and maybe just root/busybox, they will never loose time or have the knowledge to flash a deodexed modded cooked rom with custom kernel to improve something that should just work fine out of the box.. want to talk about the sound volume problem on the Galaxy Nexus? or the really poor wifi and the C8 bug? and what about the Nexus 4? with the loudspeaker inudible when it's on a flat surface? they fixed with a new phisical revision.. and the washed color screen? only fix is over kernel with colour control.

Talking about the CPU/GPU ofc it's an upgrade from snap600 to 800, but it's worth? only for the geek i would say, speed is blazing fast for both of them and the only benefit could be on battery usage, maybe 800 is better but who knows? ony the Note3 and the HTC One Max have the 800 version and they have both totally different battery capacity and different OS (touchwiz and sense) so cannot be comparable, soon we will see.. gaming side they are both excelent.. you can play Battlefield at the same level with an i5 or an i7, with a titan or a 780, bigger number is not always better perfomarce.

the N5 will have other problems like all phones have, M7 is not perfect (build gap in some early ships, pink camera issues) but let's compare: they have the same screen resolution, the same dimension, the same android official version (soon), none of them has removal battery, none has sdcard expansion, both have LTE.. 32gb M7 is 430€ here, 32gb N5 is 399€..

imho m7 wins.

So had my N5 a few days now and it's amazing - loving it (except the speakerphone but that's another story). Previously had the N4 and had all sorts of issues with uneven screen etc (went through 8 units to get a decent one) but the N5 seems to have very good backlight uniformity and colour uniformity and I'm really impressed overall. Keeping the first one which is unusual for me.

Thing is.... it's very noticeably "warmer" than my N4. This isn't necessarily a "problem" but I'm wondering how others are finding the colour temperature or whites on the N5 compared to your previous phones. Also - I used Franco's kernel on the N4 to tweak the colour settings on that and there's a test version for the N5 I flashed but the colour tweak stuff isn't there yet as it's a test version. Is there any other way to adjust the colour temp on the N5 yet - or is it too early for that?
