[Nexus 4 Accessories] :
I have a dbrand black leather skin on the back. I've dropped the phone 2 or 3 times on tiles and not a scratch. I'm careful with my devices though.

I usually don't use a case, but when I know I'm going to be doing some hard work I put it in a s-line case that I got for $2 just to be safe.

I've been using the ringky fuzion case since day one along with Mahogany skin from Dbrand. Looks perfect and all buttons works like charm.

Although I love using the phone without any case. Companies spend hell lot of money in designing the phones, and I hate covering them and hiding the actual design elements.

I use this one, Ballistic Case.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Alex87pa:
I use a tpu Puro case, forma me the best protection from accidentally falls:good:
[Nexus 4 Accessories] wolfen69:
Ballistic makes great cases. I'm taking a chance and just using the original bumper. It probably won't survive a fall of more than 2 feet.

I'm using the Diztronic matte black case; nothing special but I've used it for over year and it's holding up well. Good for the price.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Planterz:
I'm using a ACase Suppleggera Pro, since it's the closest to an Otterbox Commuter that I could find (in fact, I think it's nicer than Otterboxes). I like it, but it's a bit on the bulky side (that's the price for protection I guess), so I'm thinking of trying something thinner, and Diztronic seems to be universally liked. I'm typically wary of TPU cases, since they don't offer that much protection, but I use on on my Galaxy Light, and I've dropped it a bunch of times and nothing has broken yet. The Nexus 4 is quite a bit heavier though.

I use the ringke fusion black or the ringke sim white. The fusion survived when dropped from 2.5 feet and cracked my floor

[Nexus 4 Accessories] egasseMneddiH:
I don't use one. I have never dropped my Nexus 4, and think a case takes away from the design and experience the manufacturer intended you having. I just have a few scratches on the back. I do use a screen protector though.

I use the original Bumper LG because I think this is the best and most Bumper design.

I also have the "Ringke Slim" which I use at work and for travel :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Flipz77:
A set of 10 monocolor gummy silicone shells :D 1 € each, and I can switch colors as I prefer :p black, white, yellow, orange, red, purple, blue, light blue, green and a fuchsia one I obviously don't use outside but I keep for covering up the phone as it's charging at night - I sleep on a bunk bed and the cable goes all the way up to the side shelf, so charging it without a cover is NOT an option. I use the fuchsia one for that in order not to loosen up the others too much as the charger I use has got a fairly bulky plug.

When I'm at home, however, I don't use any of them 'cause all of my floors are wooden and we all know our n4 looks and feels best uncovered.

What does not look and feel good is a broken glass, so whenever I go outside I grab one of the colors and don't really have to worry about how I pull it out of my pocket and stuff. Anyway (fingers crossed) it's never fallen to the ground and I've had it for one year. Needless to say I've got protectors front and backside.

Sorry for the poem :D

I bought a Meifeng Quicksand Ultra Slim in October. It's simple the best. It holded on until like a month ago when it started to peel off. Since then i bought 2 clone cases and they didnt have any quality. They didnt fit right, they didnt protect as much, and i couldnt find more Meifengs. Today i found them on Ebay, only 2 left, one gray and one blue. Bought them both!

The best case for Nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] ramjet73:
This may be a clone (or re-branded version) of the Meifeng Quicksand?

Not bad for $8 with free shipping. :good:

ramjet73
[Nexus 4 Accessories] SetPT:
Looks like a really good clone!! But its hard to tell :\

It's a shame that meifeng stopped doing those cases for our phone!

Nexus 5 has better cases :\ I feel like only meifengs quicksand cases have that premium quality. I paid 5€/6.6$ for each! But i dont think i can find them again...
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Flipz77:
I wouldn't say that this kind of case "protects" that well... An impact on the "naked" edges is still gonna shatter the glass. It's a matter of taste, I understand,, but why risk the back glass (with bumpers) or, much worse, the front glass with this kind of case?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] ItsTommyBoy:
I use the main-stream ringke fusion case and have tossed it up, down, all around in my college dorm room without anything happening to it. I've dropped it a few times, but nonetheless the case has protected my Nexus 4 very well.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] wolfen69:
Yeah, Ringke Fusion cases are good, while not too bulky. I just wish they made the clear fusion case for the N4.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] webdevoman:
Acase.. Saved my phone numerous times. Has a hardshell with a separate rubber inner. Best case I've ever had.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] utsmaster18:
I have the same case. Definitely very strong in terms of protection but one thing is that it is bulkier than a ringke fusion. I've dropped the phone a couple times from 4 feet and not a single scratch anywhere. That's why I'm hesitating to move to lighter case because I know this one works very well.

One good feature which also has a downside is that the case envelops the phone so that if the phone were to fall flat, the screen wouldn't make contact with the ground. But this also affects typing as you can't get right to the very edge. Not a problem for me because I use SwiftKey Flow but can be a problem for others.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] webdevoman:
Yes, it is a little bulky but with an all glass phone I think it is needed.

I also know what you mean about the lip but it is there to protect the screen.

I'm hoping my next phone will be one where a case is not needed. The nexus 4 is awesome but very fragile. If not for this case though I would have had to upgrade months ago. lol

Ringke Fusion

I've been using the Ringke Fusion case pretty much since I got my N4. Absolutely love it. Lightweight, slim, shows off the N4's dotted back design and the soft touch plastic used in the case is similar to that around the phone itself. Also the feet on the back lift it just enough to get sound out so you can use the speaker when the phone is on its back on a flat surface :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Planterz:
How well does the clear hard plastic on the Ringke Fusion hold up to scratches from every-day use?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] wolfen69:
I don't have any scratches on mine, but then again I'm extremely careful with it. It will probably scratch if you're like most people and toss it around without care.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] ramjet73:
I think the trick with the Ringke fusion is to get used to setting it face down instead of face up so you can enjoy the glass back on the phone and protect the clear plastic from scratches.

Of course you also wouldn't want to put it in a pocket full of key and coins. :eek:

[Nexus 4 Accessories] Sir_gpm:
Mine has many scratch but got the white n4, so they are not easy to see. [emoji12]
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Planterz:
Apparently the other night when I drank way too much, I ended up actually ordering the Ringke Fusion. I didn't know until I found it in my mailbox.

Pretty nice case. Fits very tight, and I like the nubs on the corners that keep the case slightly elevated, so the plastic doesn't contact what its lying on, and so the speaker isn't muffled. I wish the TPU went past the screen a bit more, because with a tempered glass screen protector, it's nearly the same level.

ETA: Buttons on the Fusion feel better than any case I've used with any phone.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] odoneout:
I've noticed that dirt does like to collect in the back of the ringke fusion case. So far haven't scratched the back and have had the case for a year now.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] groovepeppy:
i know it's not new but i just recently bought official LG bumper case that went on sale, normally it was more than Rp.200.000,- in my country but i got it brand new at only Rp.80.000,- with free delivery

the phone gets bigger since the bumper arent so thin but i like the look, just like having a new phone if it was seen from aside LOL

Here's another:

http://dx-box.com/meifeng-double-sided-matte-hard-case-for-lg-nexus-4-e960.html

Not sure if it's authentic Meifeng, but the case is branded in the pic.

I've been using the clear-back Ringke Fusion for about a year or so. I love the look. Started out with a dbrand skin- black leather- that I really liked. Last 6 month or so, no skin and enjoying the back again. But after a year, the back has scratched up a little bit. Between that, the fact that it shows finger marks and the dust that somehow gets between the phone and case, it doesn't look as good as it used to.

My favorite case ever was a Vaja black leather wrapped around hard plastic on my old Palm Treo. Loved that thing. Wish there were more options for the N4 like that.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] ebaschiera:
Ringke Fusion all the way, for me as well ;)

The back got scratched, I have to admit. It's two years old, indeed. And between the phone's back and the plastic window, some dirt often gets in the way. Anyway I'm completely satisfied.

Hi,

Don't know where to post my question... But... The vr apps on my note 3 always lean to the left. So when I'm playing a vr story or a Rollercoaster...at the end I'm always looking left of almost behind me. Tried calibrating the sensors but did not work. Some apps have a calibration option with the cardboard magnet. But yeah it's pretty annoying... Someone knows what this could be? I'm on Android 4.4.2...

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iEpic:
So my friend told me to root my new Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Verizon), but I am a complete noob and do not want to mess up my new phone.

He told me to be careful so I don't brick my device, and too read the forums. I have spent all day reading the forums and still don't know what I should do.

I saw a video explaining how to get root by going to towelroot.com, but this seems too easy to be true and safe.

Can I get root and not have to worry about bricking or tripping knox with towelroot?

If towelrool is ok to use then I will just go ahead with that, but If there is something better, could someone please point me in the right direction with what I need to download.

what you should do....

For those of us who took the OTA, ... That app http://towelroot.com/ is the only exploit that provides root access for VZW N3. :(

yes. i am going to sound confusing now so hold on...Towel root is what it is... download. install. click.. your phone will reboot with root access ... it is a one click method... however, the bootloader and recovery is still locked on your device, and if you try to install CWM or TWRP, at this time you will trip KNOXX and void your warranty. Install SafeStrap instead from here : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53701934&postcount=1298.. then flash only one other file from this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2760380 thanks to the DEVs that have been working on this the whole shebang seems almost too simple, like you said... i agree.. i did everyrthing in that post as i installed Jasmine Rom. why? because the DEV is kickass, with the updates, i like the S5 themes, and its pretty simple to set up compared to what you've probably read up on..

and its really close to stock, which, of course, ive tried out a couple of other roms since then, and it still works (the phone)

Regarding KNoXX , your device will still read 0x0 , but it will say "custom" status .. you can fix this

if you root your phone and your status says "custom"..a flashable zip file here will fix that http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu you can find links to Safestrap, "unified files" and step by step instructions at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2760380 some more on what i mean by "custom" http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/orig-development/2014-01-15-triangleaway-v3-26-t1494114 This does the same , maybe better http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2473938

Towel root will not "hard brick" your phone ,,, meaning your phone is basically an expensive paperweight... :confused: ii gave you thseds links because its what worked for me... however, you know whats best for you..

Hey thanks for the help. I tried that too. Didnt work either, after a few hours tmail popped up and would'nt let me close it.

I even did a hard reset and it still popped up and would'nt close.

I installed everything on my storage card but I didnt do a format on the card I just reinserted after the hard reset and created shortcuts from programs that were installed on the card.

I think if this happens again I will format the card and do a hard reset and do a reinstall of everything.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soumen.sam:
Hi there,

I’m using a Leather Flip cover and recently I noticed exactly where the flipcover locking magnet placed at the right center of the screen the spen is almost inactive around that area. In the attached image you can see I draw horizontal lines towards the edge of the screen and around that area it couldn’t draw line.

Then I keep the locking magnet away and it works perfectly. Any advice how to get ride off this issue. I don’t want to use without the flipcover as it gives a great looks.

Also does the Magnet could damage the phone display in long term use?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bulbous:
Some cases do this - some don't. My first one did - very annoying. It interferes with the digitiser.

I don't think that the effect causes permanent damage, but I changed my case just to be sure.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soumen.sam:
Well what I think, if its a magnet near the screen the spen would have problem as i heard somewhere it sends something to the screen so that it works even when not touching the screen, like hover air command etc. The magnet is very tiny but it still effecting. I think all leather flip have magnet to locks so I may need to find another design model.

However on this if i move the locking plate by finger it works fine. I just concerned if the magnet could cause anything on the LCD in long term use. Otherwise its fine, i use the spen very less.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Wacom's Spen uses a magnetic system. Two magnets = Nope.

Only way to fix that is to get rid of the magnet, or to stop using the Spen and start using a regular stylus. (Disables Spen features.)

As for permanent damage, it shouldn't, but I can't fully guarantee it won't.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soumen.sam:
Yes this is what I was trying to say. All I needed to know is: is there any way to solve this issue, without sacrificing this flip cover? I really like this design.

Something like if I put something between the magnet and phone which would reduce the magnet effect towards the screen?

Here is my cover and this is the placement of the magnet lock which causing this.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
The image isn't working (something about access denied).

But as for putting something between the magnet and the phone, there's no material that can block a magnetic field.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soumen.sam:
My Bad, here is the image ittached
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
What you can try is one of those blister patches. (the thick silicon ones. They're made by Compeed.) It might provide just enough interference.(and its smooth enough to prevent scratching the screen.)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soumen.sam:
Hum... I will try one. also I'm thinking there is two magnet, upper and lower part and I can replace the lower one (beside the screen) with a iron metal. Surely that will work and the magnet locking will work as well but the time it will require dont know if i could do it, as i'm always busy with my work.
