My Spigen Neo Hybrid review (8/10)

Thanks to the OP's review, I was aware of the issue that may be affecting to the Spigen Neo Hybrid case. Overall, the Neo Hybrid case fits well. With the display face up, it looks great and it's easy to pick up off a table. In my hand, it's still a slimmer case but the extra protection is peace of mind to me. Also the cutouts are clean and smooth so if you rest the phone on your little finger, you won't have a hard edge digging in. On the back side of the case, the slight bend of the PC bumper where it touches the TPU near the buttons is apparent but I missed it until I put a camera with a lens on it to get a look up close. The buttons themselves look good and are responsive for me. I don't play thatIt's bothering me a little bit because now I know it's there but it's not a dealbreaker. I do wish I had jumped on the Amazon price a few days ago instead of paying the full $35 but perhaps it's worth taking it up with Spigen in case they fix this. Sounds like a long shot and frankly, I don't want to go through that much trouble. Flaw and all, I'm still a fan of the Neo Hybrid. 8/10

Well seeing as I'm using the S7E not my wife I would get w boring case for it. My wife loves her Nexus 6P, and had choice words for the S7E that I'll refrain from mentioning here :) I've thought about their case with the stand but I'll avoid the clear ones for now.

Thank you for your input, I'll look into some CM ones tonight.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] pnrbma:
& does anyone use any Griffin or Trident cases anymore? I used to love them, then honestly kinda forgot about them until I looked at my amazon list just now
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] yanowman:
My cases so far...

I've grabbed up 4 cases so far.. I have 4 more coming. Both hard and soft, bumpers and tpu. Also have screen protectors coming in.

Some reviews can be found on my amazon profile..

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] tool2269:
yep, i've bought like 5 cases thanks to this thread. still deciding which to keep and which to return.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] grandmaximus:
Oh man, I got some catching up to do!!

Thanks to OP for doing these awesome reviews.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] ronnel0918:
Noticed this as well. Was looking for the Ultra Hybrid but found none.

Might settle for a Ringke Fusion case for the meantime.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Redflea:
Picking up phone now, Ringke Fusion arrives tonight by 8, perfect (good) storm. :)

I'll post my comments on the case later. Expecting good things given the review here.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] dspcap:
Tried the tech 21 case for a few days, but it's very slippery on the back, it's gone back to the store. Now using the speck candyshell, it's much better. Can't wait for the spigen to reappear on Amazon.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Redflea:
Not happy w/Amazon...bought case specifically because they confirmed 2-day delivery, and they didn't deliver and now show it as arriving between now and the 20th.

Have to go to BB and buy a place-holder case tomorrow - cannot carry this thing around w/out a case.

I bought the SquareTrade insurance at Costco today - $99 for two years, $50 for replacement, up to four replacements, and they will install a new battery at the end of the two years for free. Chump change coverage for me when you consider I broke three screens and on my S4 in the space of 1 1/2 years. <eek!>
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
I might go to VZW and see if they have the CaseMate in stock (the one with the kickstand), but for now it's just a waiting game to see who releases what, and when my other cases ship.

Edit: They didn't have any CaseMate items in stock, but they did have some ugly nonsense the rep tried to sell me as per usual.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] kvsandeepreddy:
mate can u suggest a case which is not transparent and something which is not bulky.

also i have the habit of taking out the phone many times.. so advise a case which doesnt scratch the phone easily. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Toneman07:
I'm still waiting on my UAG case. After having one on my note 5 and s6e+ no other case seems worth while
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Spigen Rugged Armor (TPU), Incipio Dual Pro (not the shine oen, review coming later today :) ) or the LUVVITT TPU
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Same here, I was hoping it would ship sometime this week, but it's still pending.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] kvsandeepreddy:
thanks mate :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Not a problem, I hope that helps our. The Spigen is flexible and a little thicker than the LUVITT. The Incipio is the thickest of the batch, but it's still quite nice. I'll try to post the review tonight as I mentioned
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Redflea:
Ringke Fusion (clear) arrived today, and like it very much. Very good fit, no looseness, buttons work very well. Likely going to keep port covers assuming I get enough wireless chargers that I won't need to keep fumbling with them. :) I was worried that sometimes clear cases can look a little cheap, but it looks quite nice and shows off my phone (silver) really nicely. It probably won't provide the highest level of protection, a bit stiff on the corners for that, but should keep the phone relatively safe. I need to get a screen protector of some sort next..

My only slight issue is that the case buttons are a bit sharper edged than I'd like - I wish they were a rounded off a bit to be more finger-friendly. But that's really a small issue - for $10 it's a great deal, and the review here was spot-on w/the rating this case highly.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] George_uk:
Thank you so much for your reviews. Do you think the ringke fusion case offers as much protection/is less bulky as a spigen ultra hybrid / neo hybrid crystal, or is it more in the lines of a spigen liquid crystal?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
The Ringke is definitely the slimmest of the bunch and the best out of the ones you mentioned. It offers slightly less protection in a slimmer package. I don't have the liquid crystal yet because it's on backorder still after ordering it 2 weeks ago. I'm hoping it will ship soon so I can write up my review on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] s44:
Buttons and fit are fine, but the corner has started to slip off a few times in my pocket. I think I'm going for a hybrid one to avoid the full-case flex of TPU.

Also, I think I'd like a bit more elevation on the front corners. Any particular cases good at this?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] yanowman:
Yah buddy
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
I was a little too tired to finish posting there review night as I planned, but it will be up today.

Still no update on my UAG, Ringke Fusion Air, or Spigen Liquid Crystal shipping
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Redflea:
[MENTION=5581268]Pilz[/MENTION]...can you add your overall rating on each case to the excellent summary table w/the measurements, etc.? That would make it really useful for narrowing down which cases we want to investigate further. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Sure, that's easy enough to add in. I need to find a better way to display it on here because it seems to get rather condensed.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Hawkhell:
I wish Versus would make the Thor case again. Its always been my favorite. Anyone know of similar cases?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] chri55tof:
I got spigen slim in that dark metalic titanium ish color and is great. I've been always a fan of minimalistic cases. Also like how this one adds the grip and hides the camera so the phone can stay on flat surface no problem. Case is also not attracting finger prints. Got it from Amazon for £6.99
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
I agree, for a slim case its my favorite, unfortunately I'm afraid to use it in such a thin during my normal routine. I tend to drop my phone every now and then, so that case wouldn't be ideal for me in that situation.

OP Updated:

-Incipio Dual Pro added

-Case ratings added to table

-Tables updated
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] tool2269:
Rocking the luvvitt sleek armor right now.. Surprisingly more slippery than the spigen neo hybrid clear crystal. but I like how slim it is and how I feel better protected than a snap on case.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
The Incipio Dual Pro (not the shine version) is another good choice for a slim/protective case. I just got one yesterday and it's excellent! I posted the review earlier today if you wanted to have a look. I only have 1 LUVVITT case, but it's nice/slim for the price.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] optimummind:
This is my favorite so far.

It's the Baseus ultra thin hard clear case I got from eBay.

I'm big into this type of cases as I don't drop my phones & I like minimal bulk.

The only bad thing is it doesn't have a raised lip for the front glass. And it came with a small scratch out of the box. I started an exchange process with the seller already.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Redflea:
Received tonight:

Obliq:

Galaxy S7 Edge Case, OBLIQ [Slim Meta][Satin Silver] Slim Fit Premium Dual Layer Protection Case with Metallic Brush Finish Back with Shock Absorbing TPU Inner Layer for Samsung Galaxy

S7 Edge

TL;DR: Too slippery (no grip) and bulky (too wide) for me. Going back.

Case is really nice looking, looks like metal, not plastic. Buttons are great, easy to find and press. Fit is tight and secure. Case has a nice quality look and feel.

It's got a wider edge/bumper than the Ringke Fusion that I've been using, makes the phone feel much larger/bulky to me after using the Ringke. Definitely would provide more protection, though.

The black edge/bumper would be fine on a black phone, on my silver phone both my wife and I felt it was unattractive.

Worst attribute, and deal breaker for me is the lack of grip...it's smooth and sleek, no grip at all. That combined with the larger, bulkier size mean it's going back to Amazon.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
My Spigen Liquid Crystal so apparently be here tomorrow finally, so look forward to that review soon! If anyone wants Incipio cases I've seen them around at Sam's Club (no Costco BT me :( ), and at VZW. I'm going to attempt to find some other good ones around when I have a little more free time, but for now I'm using the Dual Pro :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] gtg465x:
I got my hands on an Incipio Dual Pro at Verizon yesterday. I agree that it's pretty great. Slim, minimalist, good protection, and good grip and feel. Also enjoying the Incipio Twill Block. For me Incipio cases have been my favorite for the S7 Edge so far after trying several from Samsung, Tumi, Spigen, Insignia, Otterbox, and Speck, although the Speck CSG seems like the best if you need a lot of protection (I don't).

"ICE" clear UAG case on silver S7 edge.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] chilipalm:
Here is the rose gold (pink) Obliq meta case my lady bought. It's nice looking.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
I almost bought the Twill Block, but the one half was really glossy which gives me mixed feelings about its appearance. I agree, the Dual Pro is like a slimmer Speck without the extra grip in that regard. It's a great case, and despite some of my other ones being good the Speck/Dual Pro are still the best two.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] n-j-f:
Great thread and thanks for all your hard work! I still haven't bought my phone yet but wanted to be sure about getting a suitable case. I mainly need one to protect the phone while it is in my trouser pocket. I try not to put other things in the same pocket but sometimes I forget and put keys or coins in with the phone. I use a S-view case with my Note 4 but I want to be able to use Always On with the S7 Edge. Always On is not compatible with the S7 S-view cases. I was going to consider a clear case but am put off by the comments about dust. Definitely leaning towards the Candyshell Grip even though it does add a bit more bulk than I would have liked. I prefer not to drop the phone in the first place rather than rely on a case to protect it from a fall. Shame about the limited colors for the Candyshell. It is giving me second thoughts about going for the silver phone. I may change that. What I still need to know is whether I will be able to fit a Tempered Glass cover with the Candyshell. I definitely have to cover the front but I am pretty useless at putting on screen protectors without bubbles. Any suggestions? Are there any pre-shaped covers that would be compatible with the Candyshell and easy to install?

EDIT: By the way, Speck are offering 15% discount on their website at the moment for subscribing to their newsletter.

I like the UAG case for the edge but I don't think it offers too much drop protection. :p

Would like to get the ash & blue colors also.

+#0808# is code for usb, you can try dial it (after last # it will run or not, depending on rom), or you can download Shorcut master from Playstore and try run it from secret codes inside app.

It has option to run it from dialer, or with SU if you are rooted, if you manage to run it, set AP and MTP+ADB to see phone as disk in windows, this helped me, hope it will help you.

Really problematic.. I tried everything cables, drivers, different PC's and nothing.. tried my girlfriends S6 and worked instantly on my PC.

Only happened after official Marshmallow update,grounds for a return?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTecXpert:
1. Power off your device (if it isnt already).

2. Connect to pc in recovery / download mode (just to trigger a response from pc /phone hopefully.

Do you know how to do this? If so, go ahead and proceed and see if the pc recognises your device in those modes

Let me know how that goes

---------- Post added at 03:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:03 AM ----------

Its not a usb port problem
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valkiry:
Here are the usb drivers for those having issues. http://developer.samsung.com/technical-doc/view.do?v=T000000117

-Uninstall any previous driver relating to the phone (Also delete package if given the option). Disable windows Update aswell (Win10 Users). Also try install PDA+ from app store and http://pdanet.co/ to see if drivers will be correctly used.

-Make sure its a data cable, not a charge cable as only + and Negative wires are used and there is no way you can use a charge cable as a data cable.

-Connect phone and look for any pop up on screen, if anything pop up click it and see if it has anything to do with MTP or PTP.

-Still having trouble, reset firmware back to stock see how that goes, If not try boot into recovery and follow next step.

-- Once in recovery see if you can ADB push a rom over or a file, if that works then firmware is dodgy and something is missing. (Would recommend Android Tool kit to use this).

-- You could also try to install ADB insecure app ( Find it on XDA forums) and enable USB debugging and see if that will help

If you still can access file via usb when the phone is booted i would say to flash back to stock rom with ODIN and send it in for repairs. (Thats if you can get download USB mode to work)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moorie:
Visited Samsung store, they said the USB port has failed but KNOX has been tripped some how, genuinely never rooted this phone or even attempted it but they showed me the warranty void status so basically even though they accept it's a hardware fault they won't fix it.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WegnerEngineer:
Quick answer for how I fixed this (sort of):

Go to "Settings" > "Developer Options" > "USB configuration". My phone indicated "charging". I selected MTP and my phone connected.

Why "sort of" - it reverts to "charging" every time that I connect the phone. I have to do the above all over again.

full history:

Same problem here. S6 on verizon network new in September 2015. Always connected without a problem to whatever computer that I have tried (linux & windows). The problem started after the recent complete software update on 2016-04-02. The phone is defaulting to "charging" and not trying to connect.

Go to "Settings" > "Developer Options" > "USB configuration". If "charging" is active, you know what your problem is. Select MTP (or whatever you need). The phone now connects and I can browse my files from my computer. The remaining problem, is that it reverts to "charging" every time that I connect the phone. Before the code update, there used to be a dialog asking me what I wanted to do (charge, data transfer, etc - sorry, don't remember exact options or how it was worded).

So, nothing to do with drivers missing on my PC. Nothing to do with need to install some other package. Nothing to do with a bad cable. Code was broken on a software update. (Or if you don't consider this to be broken, it was a poor software design decision).

!!! A CODE FIX IS NEEDED !!!

Clean Flash Marshmallow ROMs - stuck at "Android is starting... Starting apps"

Hi,

I just performed a clean flash of some of the Marshmallow ROMs and my stock unlocked 16GB maguro didn't take micro-gapps, had to flash only nano gapps. After flashing all the files, the device boots up and performs the 'optimizing apps x of x' but gets stuck at the starting apps. It doesn't go beyond that step even after a couple of hours.

I've tried the following ROMs

CM 13

zzpianoman 6.0.1 ROM

werty100 6.0.1 ROM

Can some one help me with this?

P.S. I have checked the thread here -http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/help/stuck-android-upgrading-starting-apps-t2825113 and it didn't help :(
