Last year, I pre-odered the Spigen Glass screen protector about a month before the Note 3 came out. Thanks to Spigen's AWEFUL customer service and absolutely no support what soever, i got my glass tr about a month and a half after I got the note3. Spigen have great products but there is no way i'm dealing with them again because of their lack of respect for paying customers.

About 2 months ago i had to replace my Note 3 and thus lost my glass protector and i bought a protector from a seller on ebay that offered me a very high quality product, which was to my knowledge as good as spigens products and 5 times less expensive. Now, that seller has ready for shipping the protector for the S5, so if like me, you've already pre-ordered it and want to have the protector ready for application on april 11th, then you can go buy it now for a ridiculous $7.60 with free shipping.

Great deal for a glass protector

I have had better luck with SPIGEN - in fact I ordered the New Nano Glass Screen Protector in anticipation of getting the S5 (I Preordered on teh 24th) and the Spigen glass screen protector has already shipped (according to UPS) what is amazing to me is that they have the Screen protectors ready to ship even before the phones have hit the streets.

I admit - it seems too good to be true - so I will be very interested to check the box when it arrives to make sure it is the right screen protector - it seems like Spigen has it figured out pretty well this time....I will report back when I get the shipment later this week.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] degast:
Keep us up to date on how it performs with the S5: smoothness of touch, premium feeling, ease of installation and last but not least does fingerprint scanner still work.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] mocsab:
I have used SPIGEN glass protectors on every phone I have ever owned - I expect it to be just as good as it always has been - but I will report once I ahve the phone.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] polish_pat:
Ya, mine was also "shipped" but in fact only the tracking number was generated, it was never actually shipped. Until you actually see the first checkpoint that say it has been accepted at the shipping facility, i wouldnt cont on it. Maybe they learned from their mistake, but ignoring all my emails and support tickets will make me not be their client, ever again, at least not with them directly, possibly with a reseller like amazon.

In any case, i got my screen protector, and it's legit, it nice, smooth and look almost identical to spigen's. Also, this guy didnt make me pay an extra 5$ for rounded corners. I'm happy with my purchase, and it just proves that paying 40$ for a piece of glass isnt worth it when a chinese version makes me as happy
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] mocsab:
well - here is what I see when I click on the tracking number they sent me:

Package Status:In Transit

Fontana, CA, United States	04/01/2014	3:50 A.M.	Package transferred to destination UPS Mail Innovations facility

So - It is definately in transit - I sure wish the S5 was - lol

(I have purchsed the chinese versions that are cheaper and I can say first hand that you get what you pay for) but at the end of the day, if the inexpensive screen protector works for you - that's great - I have had good luck with Spigen and that works for me -better than the others do - and it is in shipment - should be here in a few days
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] polish_pat:
I had spigen glass tr on all my previous phones, and i can tell you you picked the wrong chinese seller. I dont see any difference except the price

I'm running Albino's CM11 build from 03/04 and I was wondering:

Can I flash nightly without wipe data (Maybe cache and Dalvik)

Can I jump updates and Go directly to today's one or need to flash one by one?

Thanks
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bkman08:
If you are updating from the same rom base then yes you can just wipe cache and dalvik, however issues that are reported will not be observed because you did not do the full wipe data. It is always recommended (but not mandatory) to wipe /data
[HTC One S] Syntax323:
So, not sure why but I used to use mobile hotspot frequently. Recently, I go in and enable it. It turns on fine? But than I go click on hotspot settings where you can change password and stuff, it force closes.

Though when I turn it on, my pc or anything else can see it, but it has a password that I never set. What's the default password for hotspot??

Now another problem. When I go into app manager, and look for mobile hotspot, its disabled. I click it, and I can't enable it. Everything is grayed out!

What's the deal! How do I fix all this?
[HTC One S] benJX:
I guess you already did that but what happens if you disable hotspot, then try to go to settings to change password ? Because if everything is okay you can't go to settings if hostpot is enabled, you have to disable it before.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] timskrastins:
My best guess is that the site has the WMV encoded or linked incorrectly?

I don't usually download WMVs from the web but there are a number of streaming links that seem to work well.

www.710knus.com and click on 'listen live' and then the 'standard player' link launches right into Windows Media Player.

Check out my video review on the Spigen Slim Armor View:

https://wwwyoutube.com/watch?v=Kqc0gUDvueU

One thing I forgot to mention in the video is the auto sleep/wake function. This allows the screen to sleep just like with regular usage. When you wake the phone using the standby button the app will still be running.

I do not have enough posts to place an external link in a thread, so you will have to put a dot after the www in the link.

It would be great if someone could post the proper link.

Fantastic review. Does NFC sill work?

[Nexus 5 Accessories] freezeburn:
is the app downloaded from the playstore or does spigen give you a link?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Martin714:
the app is on the playstore its called slim view cover and spigen is releasing there own app on 05/01
[Nexus 5 Accessories] polishhammer83:
Not to dig up too old a topic, but anyone have thoughts on the new app if it actually came out? I've been holding off buying this until the Spigen app released.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] toxicpaulution:
Their app really really sucks. I don't know why I thought it'd be good. Mostly all of their products suck I'm kinda happy with the case but still have issues with it. Under the window its still plastic not rubber so the plastic is resting right on the screen and the front cover is really thin and it bugs me just because I can press down on it and it will touch the screen. I don't have a screen protector on it so this is a concern. Its alright but I'll definitely be looking for a new case. Hard to hold while texting and the hinge is kinda crappy. They say 360° but I don't see how they got 360 when that means a complete rotation. It flips on its back and that's only 180°. But at least it doesn't cover the camera.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] lotherius:
Again to dig up the old topic...

but...

... no reason to start a new thread as anyone looking to buy this case should be able to find all opinions in one place.

I bought this case have extremely mixed feelings.

1, it's a great case. It fits well. The buttons require a little extra effort to push, but no big deal. Supposedly the flip cover is removable, but I haven't seen how to do it without breaking the hinge. I'm sure it can be done, but I'm afraid to push things. Definitely it makes the phone bigger and heavier, but I don't see that as a bad thing as honestly the phone is a featherweight without a case. One minor issue with the physical build, is that the bottom edge of the view window brushes the screen of the phone while closed. Being plastic, I'm sure it wouldn't affect the glass screen. However, it does appear to be starting to leave a worn spot on the screen protector of my phone after only a few weeks. Something to definitely think of if you use plastic screen protectors.

2, the software is incredibly incredibly terrible. Whether you use 3rd party or the official Spigen app, they both bite the big one. I can't review each separately because I swapped between them constantly as new problems appeared, and forgot which one had which problems. But problems included: battery usage. phone calls not answering. phone calls answering themselves. can't connect bluetooth outgoing calls without opening flip cover. randomly lists previous calls as still ongoing. Additionally, though this isn't technically software, you have to be exceedingly careful not to even get near the proximity sensor while using the phone or it will trigger the app. Even with a 2 second proximity delay, I found it was very hard especially in landscape mode (such as taking pictures) to not accidentally trigger the sensor. Also, having the light sensor covered renders auto brightness non functional.

In the end, I still use the case. But without proper software support, I'm not sure it is worth $45. I ended up just putting widgets on my homescreens on the top 1/2 of the screen so I can see them with the flip cover closed. Answering the phone requires the ol' open the flip cover deal. That's better than the terrible software.

As far as protection... considering my Nexus 4 shattered from a drop onto dirt, despite having a Ringke Hybrid Fusion installed, I was looking for better protection. It appears this offers much better protection. It has already survived a 3 foot drop, initiated by a cranky cat, from a piano to a hardwood floor. Only time will tell, of course.

If you don't mind NOT having the software support... I feel this might just be the safest your Nexus 5 can be without placing it in a firesafe filled with expanding foam.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JonBryant:
My buddy ordered this case a while ago, loved it, then hated it. Some of you were concerned about the view window touching the screen and potentially scratching it, well it did, for him at least. He now has a dull line across the middle of his screen. Almost the whole width. This only took 2 weeks of use. Just a little FYI for those interested in this case. You'll definitely want to use a screen protector with it.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] toxicpaulution:
Yeah my screen got deep scratches as well I can see them on the otherwise of my now installed screen protector. Its a nice case. Terrible window. And terrible app. The Galaxy S4 view armor had glass in the case itself. I bought this because I thought it did too.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] AceKingNYC:
I have bombed spigen's email with complaints and they do not even bother to reply - it's such a shame that a company would make a great case, with promises of a functioning app and not follow through. My brother (note 3) and my gf (S4) BOTH bought this case on my recommendation and they love it bc it just works. I know it's different bc we dont have the magnets to trigger the innerworkings but sheesh just give us something relatively useful and it would be okay.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] lotherius:
I'd be willing to give a little pass on the proximity sensor issues if those were the ONLY issues.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Onecton:
Sooo, spigen supplys the case but no app?

Or does anyone have more info then that, i ordered the case before i read up on it in here... and now i have it laying on my desk and i am not sure if i sould unpack it or not.

Without the app the window is pointless... and i could have ordered the slim armor instead and saved a few bucks ...

but i really liked the idea of having my screen protected by a secon layer of defense .. first one is obviously a screen foil ...

can anyone confirm that the app is really missing or am i just to stupid to use the search function?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Deleted member 5149701:
The app is in the PlayStore. I just watched a video on it as I'm looking for a case for mine. They'll have a QR code on the instructions.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] lotherius:
They do provide an app - but the app is terrible.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Deleted member 5149701:
Have they not updated it since release of this case?

[General Questions and Answers] Chastre:
I've recently purchased a ThL T100s comming from an iphone 4, and I'm generally happy with the trade but there's one thing that really bothers me which is the sound loudness and quality on the ThL T100s. When I received it I noticed the sound(even at max) was toooo low so I searched for a way to remove the limitation. First thing that worked was Poweramp, but the sound was really distorted at max volume.. Then I installed gravitybox and throw engineering mode I changed some values(I believe more than I had too) and the volume is louder but still with some distortion. But the thing is, this only happens when I plug in the headphones, when I use my BT headphones I don't get that distortion and they even seem to haver a louder sound than the wired ones, although I changed audio settings in engineering mode to the same values for both... I had try other wired headphones and I get the same result, also on iphone with the wired phones the sound is louder that in the T100s and I get no distortion for the exact same tracks.

So what I would like to know is:

Is there any way to reset Engineering mode settings?

Anyone else has had this exact same problem? Especially with this particular model?

Could it be an hardware problem? Or just not as good of an hardware compared to the iphone?

Sorry if the post seems a bit confusing, but I would really like to solve this since I spend a lot of time on public transportation and I highly value good sounding music(and loud).
