Well, the biggest problem for me is the flap not being closed all the time. It just stays opened a little bit and I'm annoyed by that because the dot interface looks kind of out of focus if it's not fully on the display. I think I'm gonna put the UAG Maverick back on, or get a more slimmer case. It's a cool concept, but they did not make a very good product.
[One (M8) Accessories] BobbySteel:
Has anyone tried melting the hinge a bit to make it fold back easier? Thinking of heating mine up a bit as the springiness is driving me nuts

my dot view case arrived from http://dx-box.com/htc-dot-view-case-cover-for-new-htc-one-m8-hc-m100.html and it appears to be the real deal

it is awesome. I got the black one and it looks great. still tinkering around with the options to get it just right because it really does change the lockscreen experience.

it shipped the day after I ordered it and it arrived in 4 days after it shipped. I was pretty impressed.
[One (M8) Accessories] vegetaleb:
I love this cover!

Though too bad the custom apps are stopped now, it would be perfect with music control.

Any info if it will be compatible with E8?
[One (M8) Accessories] SpaceCadetWilliam:
there is an xposed module that adds more functionality to it

its still not the greatest though

it would be rad if I could double tap to bring up full music controls while music is playing

as it is now it uses gestures to play or pause or skip

I had a Dot View case, sold it.. Bought another one.. I love the idea of it.. But, there's just one thing with it. We all know (if you've used this case) that the Dot View case has a slight annoyance that it doesn't seem to stay closed all the way. It's a small gap, but a gap. With the phone being encased in metal, is there a way to mod just a sliver of magnetic material on the inside of the Dot View case to help it stay closed? Too risky with the screen so close? Any thoughts?

[One (M8) Accessories] talormolly:
Mine!
[One (M8) Accessories] vegetaleb:
The gap will go away after 1-2 weeks of usage as long as you dont fold it out too much ;)

About the customized dot view app it was made by Jan (viper rom) and he stopped it because too many people were bothering him about it, though I hope he will add stuff in his rom for this cover,the xposed version is a paid one,very buggy and not updated,so I will hold my hopes for the future viperone rom
[One (M8) Accessories] rquinn19:
Glad I didn't pay for it now. Without buying the full version you couldn't do much. I think once you charge for an app people have the right to expect some level of user support.
[One (M8) Accessories] henderjr:
It's terrible. I paid for it just this past week and it barely does anything. I think it used to work better but either the last HTC Dot View app update messed it up and/or the upgrade to 4.3. I'm hoping he'll update it again though he hasn't posted in a couple weeks in the app's xda thread
[One (M8) Accessories] blestsol:

Honestly, the dot view case is clearly a novelty but it gets annoying. The flip cover is hard to keep under control and gets in the way... In my opinion.

i purchased dot view in the day that i bought my phone

i use the jelly case when im at home and i use dot view when im out

its very hard to play games or even work with phone with dot view but its really great for out.

but i dont know what screen protector to buy :(

the one i have now witch is very thick doesn't fit to dot view and dot view is opened but thats not a problem for me but it would be better if i had a better screen protector for dot view

(any one knows how thick the screen protector should be to fit with dot view? because i dont have access to most of well known screen protectors in my country so i need to go and buy one with only looking at how thick it is :D )

sorry for my mistakes and bad english :(

0.15mm tempered glass or thinner is OK with Dot View.

How do i get the weather to show up in the dot view ?

I got the case when i got the phone and the weather has never shown on the front.
[One (M8) Accessories] rquinn19:
Do you have HTC Weather setup under accounts? I've always had weather show up. I actually like my dot view case and use it 99% of the time. When I'm home or at work and not moving anywhere I'll take it off occasionally.
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
Weather disappears if you choose a custom wallpaper for the case.
[One (M8) Accessories] rakeem2001:
That's the reason why I deactivated this nice feature after some testing.

But still this Dot View Case is my favorite for the M8, as the general feature given by the case is great!
[One (M8) Accessories] Knight2011:
I have weather setup and i dont have a custom wallpaper set.

I'll check all the settings again, maybe i missed something.

Edit: Quick question, do you have to have location turned on or can you just set it maually?

I have it set manually and htc sync is set.

Hi guys,

thanks for the tip with background - I can confirm this - the weather is only shown for the first background selected. But I have noticed another issue - does anybody know how can I use flashlight together with dot view? When I close the case the light goes off. And working with the case open is not especially comfortable...

Double tab on screen and flashlight turns on.

Can you please share the link where you got a proper black dot flip? I have a red M8 and I purchased the "grey" (european) option, only to realise that grey looks cr@p on my red phone. Then I replaced this with a "warm black" (american) colour option, turning out to be the same grey colour... So, please do share your source, and thanks in advance!

I love this cover but nobody is trying to make new mods for it, HTC did some improvements but we are far from really get the max of it.

Why not giving us weather + custom wallpaper next update?

Also only the Viper rom has some mods, but we can add:

-Music tracks

-Play/Stop

-Torch on/off

I'm not a huge fan of the Dot Case for two main reasons: the weird hinge design that makes it almost impossible to use one handed, and the fact that you can't use the camera without holding it open like a book, which requires two hands (and makes you look weird :p)

[One (M8) Accessories] beko1987:
I bought a second hand M8 from a colleague the other day and it came with a dot view. I like the idea, but in practise dont like it at all!

It's too springy, it flips closed all the time. I can't fold it all the way back so end up with the phone bouncing around, or have to hold the phone and open flap seperatly to keep the phone from moving. It makes taking pictures a pain as I have to hold the flap open and steady the phone and it doesnt fit in the desk dock I bought very well...

On the plus side you can play brick breaker on it, but I'm witing for payday and buying a different case for it!
[One (M8) Accessories] henderjr:
I hated the OEM dot view case though the cheap eBay version I bought from China works much better. Not very springy and has a hinge that lets it fold over much better.
[One (M8) Accessories] danguyf:
My new case came with a dot view cover; I like it well enough.

The app suggests that I should be getting notifications on it from any selected app, not just the HTC ones, right? I don't get any notifications; the screen turns on and I see the time and temp but no notification.

Am I doing something wrong?
[One (M8) Accessories] henderjr:
Open up the dot view app and go to settings and notification settings. On my phone the app is called HTC Dot View. It's in the playstore if you don't have it for some reason.
[One (M8) Accessories] danguyf:
I have the Dot View app and I had already gone into Settings and checked the apps from which I wish to receive notifications. Still I receive no notifications.

When I receive a new email in Gmail, for example, the case lights up with the time/temp and then cycles to the previous three calls, but no notifications.

Am I supposed to be seeing something different, such as an email icon or some such?
[One (M8) Accessories] henderjr:
I would've answered quicker if you quoted me since I would have gotten an email...

Does it have notification access? Go into settings --> sound & notification --> Notification Access

Make sure the HTC Dot View Notifications is checked

That was it! I feel dumb.

I have a Dot view case coming in from eBay... Should be here by the end of the month. Only getting it because it was $9. Still looking for a better case to protect my phone.
[One (M8) Accessories] kr1pt:
Got mine Dot View today. I really like the concept, but the execution is horrible. Can't lay it flat when opened, flap needs some sort of magnet to attach to display (because this way it's all wobbly, can't close it fully). Plus, the worst thing is I can't get my dots to align with display. I have to push the case with my fingers to align it. What I mean by that is below. I don't have any screen protectors. If anyone knows any fix to this, please say.

Hopefully you can see it

I have just bought the same case from the officiallest HTC Online Store! And YES, my phone is gunmetal grey colour. And YES, all my issues are the same, just as described and depicted on the photos in this thread. HTC Support says it shouldn't be like this. HTC Service department says it should adjust to normal after some weeks. WTF?! I pay more than 40$ for this "original" piece of crap, and they tell me it's ok, it's just too tight and doesn't fit your phone but please come back after one week and then we'll think what to do:laugh:. Never buy this overpriced piece of junk! I wish I found this thread before I bought it.

My case arrived yesterday... It fits fine for the most part... Though due to my glass screen protector, it doesn't respond to taps as touching the screen directly...

I bought it and returned it, even with it being $10. Didnt fit with the tempered glass protector on it and just felt overall flimsy.
[One (M8) Accessories] geojoking:
Bought one yesterday for my brand new M8. I like the idea of Dot View, but usually I find that these covers get in the way of enjoying your phone. They always make it difficult to take photos or type messages. But DotView compensates for this issues. So I have mixed feelings about it.

Eitherway, I will alternate using it with the HTC Clear Hard Case and the TPU case HTC provided in the M8 package.
[One (M8) Accessories] keith7120:
I can't ever find a black one. I have a blue one. I like it but it has its issues. Sunlight sensitivity sucks while talking on the phone. The face guard feature ( turn off screen when cheek is in close proximity of the phone) always lets sunlight through, the screen turns on and either the phone goes on mute or it hangs up in the middle of my conversations. Its also a ***** to control with one hand. The case makes you have the need to use both hands. Other than that, it has saved the phone from pocket scratches.
[One (M8) Accessories] peternik999:
Agree, mine also looks fine.
[One (M8) Accessories] onlybob:
Do not buy the Dot View. Over time, let's say over a year, the corner tabs become so loose your phone can fall out of the case. That happened to me one time and my screen was damaged on a corner. Great concept but crap for protection.
[One (M8) Accessories] firassasin:
Dot View Case

I think the Dot View is good at what it does, but has a few really annoying flaws that some have already pointed out :

-It becomes hard to one-hand the phone with the case

-It wont work with [most] glass screen protectors

-It offers minimal protection to the body from drops (I even had the back, which is fully covered, get dented from a drop)

But, its still a cool case if you like folio style cases, I think that is really what it comes down to.

sorry if I'm posting this in Tablet Z section but as far as I can see there's no one for the Z2. Anyway, I'd like to know if the bootloader unlock on a Z2 no brand LTE version is still possible.

Alright. My phone is having a huge problem syncing. First I noticed it with Gmail. I can tell how instant I am getting emails because I am sitting here at work on my PC. I can send an email from where ever (in this case my outlook work address), send it...see the email pop up on my screen in the Gmail internet tab. Here is the thing. It takes anywhere from 1-20 mins for the email to finally get to my phone. It is SO random. Sometimes if I pick my phone up and turn the screen on, it pushes through alittle faster. I have tried everything (I think) the last two days. Obviously all my settings are correct. AutoSync, the Sync settings in the gmail itself.

To see if it was just gmail, I put my work email on the phone to see how that works. It's EXACTLY the same. Sporadic syncing. I then tried cloudmagic email app which people rave about. Same thing.

What gives? I've about had it with this phone. I even tried a factory reset this morning. Still have the issue. I'm thinking of taking the phone back honestly. Could this be a hardware thing to do with connection? I've tried all of this with strong wifi on, and with perfect 4G signal. Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks

Nobody here has ANY idea what could be going on with my phone?

Does this sound like it could be a hardware issue? Should I take this phone back? I already did a factory reset ect. Someone please help!!

[CM11][HALO][Active Display] ZenROM [XT1052]

This is a simple CM11 ROM with small additions such as:

- a resizable and movable HALO,

-

Active Display (!!!)

,

- Non-Intrusive Caller ID,

- Status Bar,

- Notification Panel,

- Clock,

- On-Screen Navigation and

- general UI tweaks.

GApps: http://goo.gl/3Qa43p

Screenshots of features:

SOURCE - Original ROM: http://teamuscellular.com/Forum/topic/6296-cm11haloactive-display-zenrom-xt1055/

I made it for XT1052 / XT1053.

TESTED.

=========================================================

Question:

By active display, does it function like the stock one (you pick up the phone and the screen will light up itself)?

My answer:

Yes, partially.

Pocket Mode works perfectly - I have tried many ROMs (Gummy, LiquidSmooth), but this has the best implementation of Active Display.

You need to check the settings.

Diplay will light up when:

- any notifications arrives,

- you pull it from the pocket,

- you move your hand about 5 cm above proximity sensor (upper part of the phone)

Motorola uses the gyroscope and proximity sensor, this AOSP Active Display uses only the proximity sensor.

(I need to say that no 3-rd party app can work like Motorola Active Display because it is somehow hard-coded in the framework and in my opinion in the kernel as well.)
