So, how did you attach that to the stylus? Gorilla glue or similar?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
I used a tiny little screw-in loop actually. Here's another pic.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
I redid my case today after another trip to the craft store. I like this design much better :D

(Try to guess my favorite holiday)
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] leondestiny:
looks sweet mate,

it is sort of bulky is the case a extended battery cover ? which battery is it that you are using, hypericon or mpj /anker?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
Yes, it's the TPU battery case that came with this battery. I was really skeptical to buy it at first since I've never heard of the brand, but it had good reviews and the ZeroLemon was out of stock so I took a chance & bought it. It's actually really good, I'm getting almost exactly 3x my normal battery life for about $20 less than the ZL.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] leondestiny:
yep ! has awesome reviews. hmmmm , i had the ZL 8500MAH for my s5 but it was such a friggin brick so damn heavy ..

i couldnt get used to it, i had a 5000MAH MPJ one back when i had the S2 < it was so easy getting used to it..

how is this one in terms of weight and comfiness when holding it ? does this battery triple the weight? LOL

if it is not so difficult getting used to it then i might consider getting this one.. has awesome reviews.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
It is definitely heavier than stock. I had a ZL for my note 2 and I'd say this one feels about the same. Not so bad that its not worth using though, and the case has little textured bumps on the side for extra grippiness. I have tiny girl hands and it's not too big or heavy for me.

I'm definitely not looking forward to the first time I drop it on my face while lying in bed though :S
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] leondestiny:
X"DDDDDDD HAHAHAHa OMG dude LOL...

the same **** always was on my mind when i was using the ZL on my S5 when i was laying in bed to hopefully not drop it on my face XD

dayumn.. well i think i will bookmark this for now, i really hate the ZL flat brick like case, this Kranich one looks kind of slimmer.

might get one later on, plus its cheaper and has good reviews.

thanks for the feedback :good:
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
Yeah, no problem.

Side note- I've been trying to think of a way to add some sort of removable hand-loop to the back of it for night-time phone use. Maybe something magnetic, since I already have a magnetic mount in my car & the metal strip is already installed on my phone. Since this is a DIY mods thread, if anyone has any ideas on how to accomplish such a face-saving device please post them!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] pearse:
I don't know if this counts but I got a leather backing on my Samsung protective cover, it definitely looks better and adds a tiny bit of grip compared to the stock case.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] william58:
C'mon... gotta be more custom housing/cases out there!:cool:
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
One thing I've noticed about many note users is that they tend to go for rather "vanilla" case options. Standard black, white, grey, etc. Us DIYers are a rare breed :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Rsmin:
Can you share Where you got that leather back? Looks great.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] spexwood:
I'm impressed with everything I've seen so far! You guys are quite creative!

I'd do something to my phone, but I like to use a case just in case I drop my phone (my house is 80% granite tile floor and 15% hard wood floor, with only my bedroom with carpet. My work is 100% concrete and I'm on ladders a lot, so... case). It just so happened that I bought the blue Samsung case and well, blue is my favorite color and I actually like the metallic look to the case. :/

I especially love the spray painting idea for the rear cover though. I'd love to paint mine a metallic blue. But again... case.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] william58:
Well I did a case too... so can you!

I took a plain black case with silver border and turned it into this:
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] william58:
Same thing with notebooks! I took that a step further too:

http://1-4u-computer-graphics.com/notebookpaint.htm
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
That's awesome! Before cases were common I used to paint my old Treos. I think I still have pics of my old robin's egg-blue treo 650 somewhere...
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] william58:
Post a pic of that when you find it!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
This was from 10 years ago, I can't believe I still have this pic :o
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] william58:
Ah... pretty cool. I sure did like to Treo's back then... had one myself.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
Ah, I still miss my Treos. They crashed constantly, had crappy specs & no wifi, but they sure had character. I had the 650, the 700P, the Centro, and the 755P along with several other PDAs. I was the Treo queen over at HowardForums in the mid-2000s, made custom roms & everything. I still have backups of all my old PRCs & mobile tools too. Ok, enough reminiscing, back on topic lol.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] william58:
Back on topic? What you wrote fits perfectly on this topic. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] william58:
How is this for a custom paint job? I painted a Samsung Ultra Notebook and Samsung S5 last year:
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
Noice :D

I redid my big battery case again last night; instead of Halloween fever, it's now black/white Beetlejuice stripes. Classy AF. I'll have to post it soon.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
OK so here's my latest design, plus a bonus cat. Was about an hour's worth of work with finicky white electrical tape and an x-acto knife, but its my favorite design so far. I've been looking for a black & white striped case for ages but they only seem to make them for iPhones. This isn't perfect, but it's good enough for me.

This thread is a lot of fun ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] tbvnz:
Not sure if this counts. I purchased Hyperion 8000 mah battery with honeycomb case. It fits in my front pocket but sometimes I want it to be a bit more accessible. So I purchase a $6 knockoff Otterbox Defender case from Amazon. A little cutting, heat gun, epoxy and sanding and it fits like a glove. It even has a kickstand that is quite usable for landscape viewing. I used a knife to cut this , think I'm gonna order another one and use a Dremel to make it more asthetically pleasing.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] william58:
Doesn't look like many people paint their phones or notebooks anymore.

I guess it is easier to buy a case that you can just slap on.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] NaVaNzO:
I' m using my Tech21 by Impactology and I gotta say it's neat looking case and durable.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] iridaki:
I'm sure it doesn't count, as I didn't paint any of the parts, they were just bought with the purpose of turning my white Note 4 into a white/pink hybrid.

View attachment 3501944

So I got a genuine Samsung pink battery cover and a pink S-Pen, plus an OEM pink metal bumper. I like it more now. I had started to get bored of the whiteness of it, thinking I should have gone with the pink variant... But now I'm very pleased! Here's to hoping I won't want to switch to a new phone for a long time! ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] bbeelzebub:
For those of you that are hardcore, what paint is the best for plastic? Who has the best color selection? I found Krylon Fusion for plastic, but they don't have the color I want. I want baby blue or a powder blue. Heck, I'll even go with a glitter if I have to. I've got the time and I'm thinking of taking apart my HP laptops as well as doing the case on my Note 4.

Also, are you using a primer first?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ianpan24:
You didn't paint but you created something. For me it counts and it's very nice :good:
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
I am goth AF but I love this :D
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] william58:
Someone ask who had the best paint selection. I got mine at Fred Meyers, they seem to have the best outside of going to a specialized paint shop which would cost a lot more.

For those that don't think their housing is good enough to post, post anyways, they all count as long as they are not stock.

BTW, I changed the look of my Note 4 again... to match my upgraded notebook

[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
Hello, I am new to the forum.

I want to run the exoplyer of google (link:https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer) in my android phone Panasonic P55.

Now I have downloaded the source code files of exoplayer but i know nothing about compiling such files.

I have read the instructions in the webpage but it makes no sense to me.

If anyone can please compile the files into an apk file, I will be much much grateful. Thank you in advance.
[XDA Assist] OfficerJimLahey:
Hello, and welcome to XDA! :cowboy:

I tried compiling as well, but I had some stuff that was out of date, so ExoPlayer didn't import properly.

I would create an account, so you can post in other forums. Then, I would pose the question in the Go to first new post in the > Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly] thread.

Edit. I got it to compile, but it's a demo program, and although it probably has to do with my system configuration, it's very rough around the edges.

By the sounds of the description, it seems to be more for a media framework than a front-end for say, YouTube. Even if it was compiled properly, I don't think it will do what you are looking for. Sorry.

Hope this helps, and good luck! :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalavere:
I'm coming from 4.4.1 I want to flash a Lollipop ROM, I haven't flashed for very nearly 2 years. I'm obviously rooted already.

Is coming from KitKat as simple as just flashing a Lollipop ROM? I'm an SM-9005, I've got Odin 3.10 and I want to flash Resurrection-Remix-LP-v5.5.5.

I've seen that I need to backup my PIT and obviously backup my current ROM, do I need to update my baseband or radio etc?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalavere:
No one? :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
No need to backup your baseband or radio. RR is an AOSP ROM as far as I know, so you won't be able to flash it with Odin I'm guessing, as it comes as a zip package? I don't have any interest or idea about it, but you can only flash via Odin if the ROM comes as tar image.

Also as you are coming from KK, you 'might' need to flash a stock Lollipop ROM first to update the bootloader from KK to LP, read RR topic, see if its mentioned or not. If its not then you probably don't need to, but as I said no idea.

Are you comfortable in your own skin? Is your phone comfortable in its skin? Rate this thread to express how you deem Samsung's Android skin on the Note5.

[Galaxy Note5 General] svetius:
I think Samsung has come a long way with their skins. I have my Note5 set up with a Material Design theme (from the Samsung theme store) plus I'm using Action Launcher. Those together make the Note5 feel reasonably "un-Samsunged" and so I'm happy with it.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Dr.DL:
one way or another, I want to dbrand the note 5 so hard, with woody finish :D. :)
[Galaxy Note5 General] tw1n5nak35:
OEM Skin? what does this mean? I did buy a cheap Skin from best buy for like a $10 at best buy. It was ok till i bougght another or better case. But if your asking about the oem skin, its damn sexay because of the all metal and glass skin.
[Galaxy Note5 General] MrMike2182:
Lol bro, they're not talking about the kind of oem skins that you buy for protection or covering the screen... They are talking about the Theme Skins! You can use it to make your entire phone look totally different from theme to theme.. You should try it some time, it's in settings then Themes.
[Galaxy Note5 General] tw1n5nak35:
Dude! Oh.. my gawd! I feel like a total idiot right now. :facepalm: hahaha. Thank you for chiming in. I dont' really mess with the skins too much. I know you can purchase more on the Samsung store and there's also free ones as well. Besides the default skin, the only other one I tried was the Space Theme or skin. But this was while ago, like November last year when I bought the phone. Thank you again for clearing up my confusion :D
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmoi162:
i have a tmobile samsung galaxy s6 edge, in the xda tmobile edge threads there are like 4 roms available and hey are kind of boring, my question is can i installed any type of rom for the edge? or have to be only from the mobile threads?

thanks in advance
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamps:
I think as long as your model number matches, you should be fine.

I have never used a carrier branded rom so i can be wrong.

But in my experience as long as your phone model no is supported, you should be OK.

Cheers!!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bighleo114312:
I think thats these roms with edge features do work good on the edge just need a compatible kernel thats it. I have a 920t and flash 925 roms with no issues just flash a 920 kernel. Doesnt matter if uts not a 925t rom. I have like 3 weeks running a 925f rom.

[Galaxy Note5 General] svetius:
The glass back gets straight up gross if you're using it for long periods of time. I got a dbrand skin, though (just the matte white) and it's 10x better in terms of feel, plus it no longer attracts fingerprints. Also, with a skin, I don't have to worry as much about shattering the back glass. It's not as good as a case, but it's much more minimal.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Chord_Hugo87:
I use a case for my Note 5 because its glass after all, but I must say this Note 5 seems less wider than the previous note which is more important in the hand than the screen size. If I cant hold a phone in one hand and have to worried about it dropping all the time then I will not get it.
[Galaxy Note5 General] getapp:
i don have it yet but i checked it in the market few days ago

it s really the most beautiful phone i have ever seen

maybe not the most comfortable But i will put case anyway to fit in my hand better

it s really looks premium
[Galaxy Note5 General] fethi2:
I installed slickwraps black skin at the back, front and sides. The only con is when you want to put the device in a case you have to be careful not to peel the side skin off and some cases peel off the front.

On the other hand i agree with [MENTION=2235607]svetius[/MENTION] to protect all over the devices including camera lens
[Galaxy Note5 General] Willyman:
I'm anxiously waiting for my D-brand skin to cover the back. Yes, the device is gorgeous and has exceptional build quality... but it's a slippery mess in warm climates. Where I live, high humidity means you always have slightly humid hands. The device becomes extremely slippery in this situation. It doesn't help that the device also has some noticeable heat when operating in these hot temperatures.
[Galaxy Note5 General] tw1n5nak35:
The all Glass and metal body Feel awesome, for like 30 mins. I work on the diesel engines and I can't really enjoy the sexay feel all the time. Only when I go to church when I don't need a case for my phone. But it feels slippery after awhile in your hand. Too bad, the price of having sexay looks with metal and glass. The slippery fingers and hands is real. But I dont' care, it still dead sexay. :D
[Galaxy Note5 General] malakalofung:
Have been a Note user since the 1st model upto date. Have gone astray lol, HTC, Sony, Nexus & Apple, even BlackBerry. But i have always come back to Samsung, and specially the Note series. The new design is awesome but the curve back sucks. Its too slippery. Since the bezels are slim there is no grip. Even though i have large hands still its difficult to grip this baby. And handling the phone in bed while lied down is a nightmare. I hope one day soon Samsung will go Nexus 6P like design, front glass with slim bezels and the back to be fully metal.
[Galaxy Note5 General] tw1n5nak35:
Yes, I know exactly what you mean. After 9 months of having this phone, still can't help but feel left out. The note 5 between the 4 and the 7 was like the step child that know one cared about. I know that's a horrible example, but it's true. But I don't care what the haters say. It's a darn right beautiful device. Using it with out a case is almost impossible like you said, cause the nice clear glass is WAY TO SLIPPERY. But I still love this phone. By Next year November, I'll be available for upgrade and maybe, just maybe the note 8 will be a fantastic phone. If not, than the note 7 edge will be on sale :D

[Galaxy Note5 General] md1008:
Despite my elitist Nexus or GTFO I bought the note because I loved the design of note5/s6. It does feel like a premium device
[Galaxy Note5 General] kenchi27:
Had the unit for just two weeks, but after the checking the flash and heart rate sensor, there are a lot scratches already.
[Galaxy Note5 General] hooover:
Back glass is whack!

My back glass broke after sliding from my dashboard to the floor board all while it was inside of a case. I have never liked phones with glass body desgin. I kinda bought this phone with that in mind and have regretted my decision immediately since getting it. Coming from the S5, I've lost a lot of functions that I had come accustom to using. Also the cheaper build quality of the S5 withstood much, much, more than this note 5 has so far.
[Galaxy Note5 General] cokeman2:
its way to slippery i ve had to put a skin on it just to stop it slipping threw my hands ...i cant believe designers not thinking it could become the slippery's phone on earth
[Galaxy Note5 General] tw1n5nak35:
Im glad and delighted that the body is full metal this time. Dont' get me wrong, I love my note 3 however the build quality is EXcellent. I know iphone users have enjoyed all metal frame body for awile, but I like what samsung did with the note 5. It looks sexay in the hand and it feels sexay in the hand as well.

[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
I wanna use pure android (without any bloatware) like Nexus', there is just omnirom and cm. But there is some problems in these roms.

CM- Camera and sensors don't work.

Omni (for KK)- This one is perfect but not exactly, camera OK, Sensors OK but 3G doesn't works and this is stupid I think.

Omni (LP)- So camera

Can't anyone fix this problems or make fully working rom? There is no any official rom for Xperia M2 I think. When we can use an official rom, in 5.1 there will be bloatwares again. Can't we experience a pure android?

Sorry for my English, I hope you understand :)
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
There can't be any 'stable', non-stock-based rom until all problems (camera is the main one) are fixed in Unified Kernel.

If you want a Sony debloated rom, you can still try Z4 eXPERIence (Stock Based). Check my signature. :)
[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
I tried it but it is just like o modified rom, I want pure android like CM
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Then all I can recomend is to wait or try 4.4.4 Cyanogen.. It has working camera at least.
[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
Sensors?
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Working fine AFAIR.

Get it from here, it's freack_v compilation https://mega.co.nz/#!PpRVyIzb!BfybsSOhZCKZChzMZFHRPW92C0mqTih73S8YqqAT8UI

You'll need gapps too ;)
[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
So isn't there any problem in it? Camera fine sensors fine 3g fine ?
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Yeah, I tested it some weeks, only problem, for me personally, was 3G, but it was related to my carrier, Vodafone ES. In other networks worked fine.

And for camera, I recommend Camera FV-5 and Cinema FV-5... Sensors fine as I told you.
[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
Thank you ^^ Now I'm downloading it, I'm using a Turkish carrier, I hope 3G works
[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
Yes everything is OK as you said but 3G :( , I think I'll use this Rom until when 5.1. comes
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Just a little curious, what's the actual problem? Can you describe it?
[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
Yes, when I close Wi-Fi and open 3G, a H+ icon appearing, and disappearing, and appearing and disappearing. When write some URLs in browser, It's giving connection/internet problem. In quick settings panel, the signal icon is changing to red. This is.
[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
But when I switch to 2G, internet is working fine but unfortunately slow....
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Is your apn correctly configured...?

That's the problem I had in Vodafone ES network... Try switching to 4G, that helped me somehow.
[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
:D There is no 4G in Turkey, but next year we will get 4.5G, so I will keep 2G or WiFi
[Sony Xperia M2] Lothgar:
Does it have the gpio event problem?
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Yes I think. Not sure, you can try tho.
[Sony Xperia M2] sitebaz55:
What is gpio event?
[Sony Xperia M2] Lothgar:
Any rom without that problem??
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Ammm, AFAIK latest Omni 5.1.1 should have that fixed.
