Hey everyone, I just wanted to share with you guys this sweet new case I just got for my new Nexus 5. Its from Bear Motion, and it is a very thin case. It has a really unique texture, which feels like sand/ sandpaper only not as rough as you think. the case has a really small lip on the front so you can place your phone face down without having your screen touch. I'm really loving it. it feels really good in the hand because it doesn't add that much bulk to your phone. I searched far and wide for a case like this. I highly recommend it. best of all i got it for like 5$ on amazon.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] davidmoore:
Yes, these cases are great.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jbdan:
I got one too. I also got the bear motion non-sand version as well. Their nice, but do not give near as much grip as the ringke rearth slim does. Maybe I haven't used them long enough to let hand oils soak in? The sand version feels wild. Nothing like actual sand. More like very felt, very short cut felt. I like having many different cases to try, but so far the Ringke slim is the best imo. Thanks for sharing
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rikudo:
Is the rough texture on the interior of the case too? This case sounds interesting, very grippy, but I would be afraid it would damage the finish of the phone.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Yeah I didn't order the bear motion one because they didn't have it in black. I do really like the quicksand style, so I ordered a generic quicksand case off ebay in black, and like 3 other types of hardcases. The quicksand is pretty much the exact same thing as the Poetic and Bear, minus the branding. Probably all made in the same factory anyway. Can't go wrong with 4 cases for like less than 10 bucks shipped! :laugh: Only thing is it takes a month to get here.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bblzd:
Would be interesting to compare the Bear Motion branded one with the non branded ebay ones.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jbdan:
Is actually very slippery for me. I was surprised and thought it would be grippy too
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mr_mojorisen:
Yet another hard case that leaves the top and bottom edges exposed. They seem to be all the rage these days. :confused:

Fair point I suppose. I guess that's why I stick with TPU.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
I did a review of a bunch of generic ebay cases here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2577289. It also included the generic version of the Bear Motion/Poetic Quicksand cases. I'm pretty sure like I mentioned earlier that they're the exact same cases, from the same factories, without the company branding on it.

$0.99 SHIPPED!!!

*Just noticed how dusty my desk is...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gbeaguilar:
Just got a green one today for my white Nexus and gotta say I'm loving it so far! It looks and feels great. I just hoping it provides okay protection... Yesterday I dropped my phone for the first time and my Diztronic case proved to have GREAT drop protection (no damage from a waist high fall, screen first!). Obviously the Bear Motion obviously isn't meant to protect from drops but hopefully it will be better than nothing. Anyways, sweet case and definitely a favorite out of all (5) of my cases :)

If someone can prove that the ebay cases are the same, minus the branding, I'll definitely pic up some more colors!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Yeah I'm not going to take you up on that offer. No reason for me to spend more (when I spent the best $0.99 on a case ever haha), just to find out if a case with a Bear Motion stamp is the same as my generic one! I don't think a 20x price increase (original price) + shipping is worth it for me to test 10 letters of white ink.

Here's some easy "evidence."

Hmmm, interesting haha. Exact same color choices. Even down to the watermelon pink orange that they say is orange. I ended up getting that "orange" as well from ebay, thinking the color was.... well orange.

Hmmm, interesting again! Same wood type/wood grain used as a backdrop for the case.

You know, some crazy person might even come to some weird conclusion that it's almost as if they were the exact same case! ;) Possibly, with pictures taken from the same factory location, one before stamping, and another afterward! This is tough detective work though, I don't think anyone will ever truly know the answer to this mystery! :highfive:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkhigh:
Hey just bought my wife a note 3 for Christmas and it is my intentions to allow all updates and then root with kingo. Root is required due to the need for tethering.

Next question is there any reason why I should not update and if so which one is desired. I do like having an Odin file... if I don't want to update what app should I freeze? It appears mj1 is what I want but what are the differences?

last question after I install kingos su can/should I attempt to install a different superuser app and then should I uninstall the kingo su? From what I can tell I really just need to install busybox.

Thanks a note 3 noob.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LtZKilla:
So the other day while flashing from AOKP to CM11, it came to my attention that there are files on my phone that I can seemingly only see from my recovery. While finding the zip to flash in CWM(Which was in my downloads folder) , I noticed that I have to go through another /0/ folder to get to my actual downloads folder. Before that, there's another Downloads folder, along with a whole bunch of other stuff I must have downloaded a while back. It looks like an old version of my phone's data. There was even a flashable early CM10 rom on there.

I get the feeling this stuff is part of the reason my phone always seems to only have around a gig or two of space open despite it's 16GB capacity and the fact that all of my 40-some apps are under 100MB. It's irritating me to no end to know there are folders I can't access and delete on my phone. Anybody have any suggestions as to how to get rid of this stuff. The several times I've reset and deleted cache to flash a rom seems not to have done anything.

On a side note, really enjoying CM11!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
You can thank Google for your troubles. With the 4.2 update Google introduced Multi-User. Basically its like it is Windows where you can have multiple user accounts and each user gets their own profile folder. This is what Google did essentially. The 0 folder is "User1" basically. The files are fine where they are at. They want cause any issues. But if you would like just hook your phone to your PC. Take everything out of the "0" folder and move the file to the root of your internal SDcard. Notice I said Internal SDCard (aka SDCard0) not root of system.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harmonyxda:
Compared with my old phone, g2 brightness sensor seems calibrated to much lower values,

i.g., old phone has lux at 8 or 9 vis g2 lux only 1 or 2, indoor in a cloudy morning with room lights off.

While under plenty of lights, old phone has lux above 500, yet g2 says 200 or less.

I was using androsensor and lux auto brightness to measure them.

That said, I had only lux readings 0, 1, or sometimes 2 to control "low-light" brightness levels for g2 screen with the lux auto app. That is really a rough curve compared to the other phone which has 9 shifts.

Also noticed a few times screen brightness suddenly jumps all the way to 0% or 100%. When that happens, lux readings are 0, 10000 the max, or even -1 ! :mad:

Does anyone get this kind of same lux values or your g2 sensor reading is better than that?

Hey guys. I'm a newb here, I'm having issues with my wifi connecting and disconnecting very frequently. I've been browsing around for an answer and haven't found anything that works for me yet. Can anyone give me a tip to how to fix this? I've tried a factory reset twice, and also a stock firmware re flash with ODIN. None of this did squat.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mwebb34:
Ypu can try this go to wifi settings click advance and make sure wifi auto network switch is unchecked. The other is to open root explorer and scroll down to were it says efs click that, then click carrier then open the hidden menu with text editor A White screen will appear with the word OFF in the upper left corner of the screen delete OFF and type "ON" in all caps. Make sure to save the changes .Hope this helps you. Im having the same problem as you my friend.

I'm having trouble with SuperSU on 4.4.2 on Nexus 4.

So at 4.3 I unrooted first, then OTA'ed to 4.4 and now 4.4.2.

Yesterday I used cf-auto to root my phone, but there was no SuperSU. Then I downloaded one from Google Play. But it keeps saying "unfortunately SuperSU has stopped" when there is a need to use SuperSU, i.g. when there is a root explorer app running. I doubt whether the root was successful so I downloaded a root checker, but it kept saying "please wait". So I even don't know whether my phone is rooted.

Please help.

Then I tried it with SuperUser. it worked. I didn't ask any questions :D

I recently bought new note 10.1 2014 edition wifi only version. Out of the box it had troubles in detecting my home wifi network. I managed to fix by enabling and disabling wps connection settings from my ZYXEL wifi router. But the problem appeared again in a month with just one reset of the router. My galaxy S2 and S3 have no trouble finding my network so I don't understand why the tablet can't. Both the phones actually more networks than the tablet actually so it's not limited just for my own router. I really hate Samsung for this. I believe the issue is not about hardwarehere.

S2 is running on neatrom latest version. S3 is running on original firmware 4.1 from Samsung and is not rooted yet.

Would it work to flash the system.img thru fastboot? (And boot.img if necessary)

On the Galaxy S4, we flashed the GE rom, but had to use a touchwiz kernel. Not sure how it would work on the Ultra..
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Inside a system.img will usually be 3 different compressed files. (depending on the phone)

Only one of these files will contain all the folders that we are usually familiar with:

app

bin

etc

fonts

lib

media

...

Its best to wait and see what Sony have done with the GPe devices. Probably nothing has changed, and partition info will be the same... but there could be a couple of changes that may brick your device. It's very unlikely, however I'd recommend not flashing the system.img without know exactly whats in there.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Reb0rn:
If no one tries anything nothing will be gained ;)

Now then. I got the GPe to boot on my Xperia. Too see what works and what not :)

edit: Well its buggy... and i think it has to do with me using krabappel's 4.4 kernel. Not sure how much i dare goof around with this :D Playing away...
