great case in my opinion. just applied it a minute ago. buttons were very loose and started to rattle very easily.

Solution. cut out a piece of paper (as big as the cut out of the rubber is) and place it over the original. be sure that the paper doesn't move/slip out while putting on the frame. Had to try it 2 times until it worked. now i cant hear the buttons anymore ;)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ronakg:
It's a great case looks wise and build quality wise. I think it will protect the phone very well. The phone fits perfectly in the case and everything is tight together.

However the port cutouts for headphone jack and charging are small. All my microusb cables (except the one that came with the phone) are useless now. I can't even use my headphones with the case on as the case obstructs it and can't fit all the way in.

Sadly the case has to go back. What are the other options guys?

Seido cases are out the end of the month according to what they told me earlier today. I have never had problems with them.My Neo goes back for the same reasons as yours!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dwang:
I have the gold one and while I love the way it looks, the case makes the phone too wide to use comfortably with one hand.

I'm returning it and will look for another case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] BigOkie:
Actually? The phone makes the phone too wide to use comfortably with one hand.

My opinion, however.

I like this case. None of the rattling issues I've heard other people have has happened to me.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jRi0T68:
Does anyone have measurements of the headphone jack and USB openings? Diameter for headphone, width and height for usb? It might help some of us figure out if our headphones will fit before buying one.

Serious question: How do you freaking get this case of again? It sits so tight I'm scared to damage my N5...

//edit: Pulled it over one edge to get it off... but maan that didn't feel good. Even lifted the back a bit, but could clip it in again.

I think I just leave my phone naked. Looks best that way.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] indianajonze:
same question. never in my life have i struggled so much in getting a case off of my phone. it was insane. towards the end i got so frustrated that i took a small screwdriver (eyeglasses type) and inserted it in the gap between the band and the rubber. pried it off that way, not caring whether i broke/bent the band at that point. utterly ridiculous. unless there is an easier way im not seeing, id avoid this case just for the fact that you'll never get the damn thing off
[Nexus 5 Accessories] zephiK:
I just pushed the corner of the front and took the case off that way. Worked fine. I'd advise this way rather than applying pressure on the outer band
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Mr Dasher:
I have this case with the Spigen class screen protector. Great combination . No rattling buttons. The fit is tight but thats what i want because I dont plan on taking it off. It looks slick. I think my only concern is that i dont think the case itself would survive a drop. The phone would but not the case. I am sure i will eventually have to buy another ... knowing how i drop things.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gsrrr:
Headphone jack is about 7mm in diameter. Depth looks to be about 3mm (this one is a guess since I can't really measure it.)

USB port is 7 x 14mm.

Thank you, that's OK for me.

Got my Spigen Neo Hybrid (slate) case in the mail today.

http://www.spigen.com/brands/google/nexus-5/nexus-5-case-neo-hybrid.html

Good:

Fitment is perfect

Looks pretty good, clean simple design

Can place phone face down, no worries

Bad:

Obviously adds a little to width to an already large phone

Metal edge is a little slippery (good for the pocket, bad in the hand)

I think combination of width and slip makes this is a 2-hand device - ~only

Maybe a slightly noticeable weight bump

I'm gonna keep it for a bit. I had a nice leather flip case for my iPhone that I really liked; I think that's probably where I'll end up.

Neo Hybrid Headphone Problem.

All I did was took a sharp pocket knife and trimmed a very tiny bit of the plastic around the headphone jack. Just a tiny bit is all it needs. Maybe an eighth of an inch. If that much
[Nexus 5 Accessories] RevelationOmega:
I thought the Neo Hybrid case can interchange the outer casing, is there a place to just buy the outer case (aka metal slate,etc) rather than the entire case again? Dropped recently and snapped the metal slate part. Thanks for any info.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gee2012:
I have it a few days now and its great imo, nice design, good protection for the screen when layed face down and the price is good (20 euro`s on Amazon German including shipping). Recomendable , offers good protection and a sleek design.

Bumper not snug enough

To all of you who own this case, I have a question; I feel like the plastic bumper around the tpu case isn't snug enough. In my case I can slightly push in the bumper on the left side below the volume rockers. This irritates me very much as it shows that it's not as snug as on the right side of my case. Does anyone of you have the same issue? Not sure if it's normal?﻿

[Nexus 5 Accessories] chaosdefinesorder:
No issues with mine (bright red Neo, Black N5) the case is extremely snug, no give on any sides and it's actually rather difficult to get the phone in and out because it's such a tight fit...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Khidr:
I just looked at mine, and had the same problem, there is a small groove in the tpu part of the case that the plastic slides into - for me the bumper was not seated in that groove, I lifted it up and reset it and now both sides are snug. Hope this helps.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Damountje:
The bumper is def seated in the groove, I've already checked that. I think I'll have to return it than and hope they will accept it because I haven't bought this case from spigen themselves.

I'm trying to install Cyanogenmod on my Razr, so I'm following the steps by trying to install Safestrap first but adb isn't working correctly

C:\Users\#\Desktop\RAZRDroid\ADT\sdk\platform-tools>adb install C:\Users\#\Desktop\SafestrapSpyder3.63.apk

Whoops: didn't find expected signature

read_central_directory_entry failed

file 'C:\Users\#\Desktop\SafestrapSpyder3.63.apk' is not a valid zip file

rm failed for /data/local/tmp/SafestrapSpyder3.63.apk, No such file or directory

This is the error I get everytime I try to install. adb does recognize my device and I have 3rd party sourced checked along with developer options enabled.

I've also tried installing from my phone but get a " 'Parse error' There was a problem parsing the package."

I've tried using the default File Manager & ASTRO to no avail.

Is there something I'm missing?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DSChris:
I'm in the process of trying to root this phone for a friend, and while I've done rooting before this phone is throwing me for a bit of a loop. I used adb to transfer the su.zip over to the phone and sent the fastboot command for clockwork but the recovery boot yields the dead android with a red exclamation point and the phrase "No command."

This issue existed with the recovery boot even before any attempts were made at rooting, and it's a fresh refurb from Verizon. I've been looking for answers on this "no command" issue and haven't come up with anything so far, so any assistance in the matter is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] harishmenace:
Did you unlock the bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DSChris:
I don't believe I did, but I also did not see that listed in any instructions. Could you provide how I could go about doing that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] harishmenace:
You need to unlock the bootloader to be able to root.

You can do it either manually or through toolkit, I will suggest you do it manually

Here is the manual method

...As for the "no command" on recovery screen, after you get to dead android, try push/hold power and then volume up . Se if that brings your command screen up. It definately sounds like your in factory recovery though.

I've read EVERY thread on this board in both Universal sections (not including accessories.)

There are lots of "how to UNBRICK your Universal" threads, but all threads with references on how to avoid bricking it in the first place are convoluted.

Can someone take up the task of making "The Definititive Guide to Rom Switching your Universal" that

1. Works for ANY HTC Universal variant

2. Starts w/ the standard "sync up your Universal" warning

3. Lists all software needed (extended rom unlockers, the roms themselves, radio update)

4. Runs all software in order so that the dreaded county code and syncing errors never show up

Can someone take up this task?

Again, this isnt about "best software" for the Universal. We are JUST talking about Rom switching...

Yeah this would be a great Sticky, especially as it looks like we are all about to receive a new ROM thanks to one of XDA-Developers users having just got a new Exec with a newer ROM version than the one available on O2's website.

BTW does'nt O2's website give detailed instructions on reflashing the original ROM that they have available for d/l? I cant get that far on their site as you need to fill out IMEI/Phone Number/Inside leg measurement etc before you can d/l it.

Can someone d/l it and see it it comes with instructions for applying and post info here, maybe its what we are looking for?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] NighthawkXL:
To my knowledge the answer to your question is no...

The GPE of the S4 is a separate device running a separate bootloader. Flashing a GPE Rom is the only way to get the experience of it on the I337M.

Short answer no. At least not "pure" GPE.

Rom would be the way to go. I have Kangabean Google Edition rom which works great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mattwheat:
I agree with swagmiester, I've ran kangabean for a while as my daily driver and it seems to be the smoothest most stable version of 4.3 GE Roms. To me it was smoother than any ROM I've tried yet except for Graviton. But Graviton is a 4.2.2 Rom. But I don't know if you could convert to get OTA's if you would want to. OTA may make you loose root with no new root method, or lock boot loader (if that's possible. Don't really know much about the true GE S4). And may not get proper radios/modems for your carrier. To my understanding OTA's are carrier specific for that reason as well as all their other BS they want to flood your device with.

[Windows Phone 8 General] one-option:
Hi all:

I'd like to open this thread to give an idea for those who want to know about Windows Phone 8 and how this OS looks from the other side.

I notice that if some one asked abut Windows Phone 8 mostly members here will mention the Advantages of the OS and will show the light side only !

For me I like to show the other Side of the OS name it as you wish.... disadvantages, restrictions or Windows Phone 8 philosophy.

I hope Microsoft will read what we will write in this thread as we will explain our point of view and our vision about Windows Phone 8.

So they can explain to us if we misunderstand this OS and the way it should work, so we can understand each other to take a better decisions about adopting Windows Phone 8 or leaving it to other OS.

Please notice that I like general idea about this OS and how it is looks, but it is important for me to know in which direction Windows Phone 8 is heading, is it going in my direction and what I think it will be or in the opposite direction .

Note: this thread is about restrictions, Windows Phone 8 defenders can open other thread about Windows Phone 8 advantages, and I will be pleased to mention many of WP8 advantages.
