I ordered the dark brown leather back on the 22nd and it's still processing, but got the 40% off deal so I figure they got swamped.
[Note 7 Accessories] PearsonDKA:
It takes awhile. I think it's because if the Back to School sale they're having. I ordered mine last Saturday, got the confirmation that it shipped on Wednesday and another one today saying it should arrive Monday. The joys of being in Canada haha
[Note 7 Accessories] whosaysjohn:
Even I ordered and got shipping confirmation after a week... Natural series gets delayed sometimes... [MENTION=5582214]slickwraps[/MENTION] might help here or Twitter
[Note 7 Accessories] busab:
I received shipping confirmation today. It's all good!
[Note 7 Accessories] PearsonDKA:
Just got mine! Gonna toss it on and take some pics later.

[Note 7 Accessories] thinguy:
Ordered the Stormtrooper from the Galactic Series. Shipping time was alright but the skin was missing a cutout for the flash/ir sensor. Package was also missing HD protector and"authenticity" card. Not that I care about that stuff but shows bad quality control when the package says its included but its not there. Also it had no install instructions and the web link they refer you to is for the complete "wet" install products.

So not impressed. Regret not going with dbrand, but was enticed by the fancy designs.

Waiting (less then 24hrs) to hear back from them on a refund or replacement.
[Note 7 Accessories] Markieb:
Same here ordered the Naked series and didn't get my HD screen protector or authenticity card either, no instructions..Plus it took 8 days to ship.. There means of contact are poor..I ended up calling BOA and had them reverse the charge.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] skillzo1:
Anyone ele having problem with using the dialer to find a contact, then when finding it and clicking on it it gives the option to call all numbers instead of just going to the defualt number. My girlfriends att note 7 doesnt do this.

I have her cell set defualt. And work as 2nd. When i dial her name using the dialer her name comes up like it should. When i click on her name an option comes up to dial her cell or work. I have to take the extra step and click cell then the call button. It should just go to her cell when i click her name then call whwn i hit the call button. The extra step to choose between the cell and work shouldnt be there as it should defualt to her cell as its checked of as the main.

Can someone please see if their verizon phone does this or am i missing something. Please. Thank you.

Hello guys

I have a problem with may phone .

I flashed 23.5.a.1.291 on my phone . After flashing my phone does not support SIM cards and the camera does not work.

I unlocked boot loader but now rooting status is unknown.

I tried other ROMs like D6503_23.4.A.1.264, D6503_17.1.2.A.0.314 but still have the same problem.

please help me to repair my phone
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gmobilize:
Please provide some more info, like which recovery version were you using, what was your previous fimware version, and perhaps your your model number? D6503 or D6502 maybe?

Anyway i suggest you redownloading the zip and make a clean flash with factory reset, you may also try reinsterting your SIM card.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reinaldistic:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Buddha8888:
So this is for my dad's phone. He dropped it and the screen and the LCD panel part busted so the whole screen is all black. Can't see a single thing on it. He got a new (read:refurbished) one so that's not an issue. I'm trying to use a screen mirroring program to factory reset the phone before he sends it back to Motorola. Issue seems to be those programs require USB debugging mode to be turned on but since the screen is all black, I can't do that. I even tried doing multiple screenshots and guessing where things were but it didn't work (worried the top of the phone's touch digitizer is busted too but i'm hoping for the best lol). So I need a way to turn on USB debug mode, with a totally black screen (touch still works), NOT ROOTED, so I can then mirror it with the MirrorGo or Vysor mirroring software so I can factory reset the device. If you have any thoughts for a simpler fix then I'm open to suggestions. I'm not tech savvy enough to do anything with Rooting and i'm not confident enough to try doing that with a busted phone (if it's even possible), so that's an option that's out too. :/
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] zys52712:
You can go into recovery mode and do the factory reset there, it's probably the easiest way to do it.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Buddha8888:
Yea, i tried that with the bootloader/fastboot thing. It didn't seem to work. I can barely tell if the device is even ON, only indication it's on is the volume rocker makes a noise to indicate volume and the bottom buttons light up. So being able to tell if the device is even IN it's bootloader mode thing was a crapshoot. I'm gonna need either a way to screen mirror in real time without debugging mode on, or a way to enable debug mode remotely essentially. :eek:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kbhogan:
I have only had it for 2 days. It was fine the first two days. Just now, after 10 seconds it goes black, to sleep mode. i have to press the power key to get it back on. I do not have any of the boxes checked for it to go to sleep on it's own. I don't know why it's all of the sudden started doing this. Can anyone shed some light for me?? TIA. :confused:

nevermind.. I didn't see the threads below mine. I'll read more! I may have fixed it.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Accessories] blau77:
Every time I pick up my Sony Z4 tab and begin writing on my keyboard, there's a lag of 2-3 seconds or so before the keyboard begins to work. And therefore I often times choose to use another unit than my tablet (cellphone or laptop instead). I know it's possible to update the firmware for the keyboard, so I'd guess it's at least theoretically possible to make it always be on.

I charge my tab quite often, and I wouldn't mind charging the keyboard way at the same time, so power consumption doesn't matter.

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyder52:
The centre strip of my touchscreen doesn't respond to any touch input, it's a perfectly straight strip in the middle of my phone. The glass is not broken, the phone is in great condition...

I can't reclaim on the warranty as not in the US atm, nor can I give up the phone before my warranty expires..

Same problem even in TWRP so definitely hardware related.

Any advice on a fix?

Thanks
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jason2678:
If this phone was easy to open up I'd say pop it open and make sure the digitizer ribbon cable is firmly seated on the motherboard. Long shot, but if a few pins aren't making good contact maybe you could see some behavior like you're describing.

However, with the non-removable back and the fixed battery where it is this isn't the simplest check. You need a heat gun or a hair dryer just to get it open. Maybe watch some screen replacement videos and see if you feel like you're up to taking it apart yourself.

Also, tampering with this has potential to void your warranty, assuming it is intact.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hexbox117:
My Pure has the same exact issue except it's directly on the nav bar. It happened after it was dropped. I used gravity box to raise the nav bar height by 20% and that fixed the issue of me not being able to use the home, back, and multitask buttons. Much easier than taking the phone apart.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buggerritt:
This happened to me so i filed a claim with squaretrade. Online, they tried to replace it with a moto x (first generation) so, i quit trying online and called in for a claim. They don't have this device so they paid me out in cash. I had to pay $70 deductible and within 7 days, i received a check for $479. Then i bought a new one with bamboo back for just under $400 with Amazon prime. Winning.

I did call a local shop and they said they could fix it for $80. But, mine was from water damage so, i didn't want to risk it having more issues later.

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sorullo_xgrx:
I have the same issue. On mine. But it's actually on the nav keys I sent it for repair but they sent it back and no repair was done . Worst things they sent it even worst now I have going touches. No crack screen or anything. Definitely not buying another Moto product
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buggerritt:
Who did you send it in to for repair? It's obviously a problem with the digitizer. It can be caused by too much pressure being applied to the screen, water damage, or trauma to the screen. A crack isn't necessary for this to happen. It can and does happen on any brand of device. I wouldn't blame the manufacturer unless they were the ones you sent it to for repair. A local shop should be able to fix it for under $100.

[HTC One A9] turtallll:
I really screwed up this time...

I did a factory reset on my phone, which means that the settings are back to default and I don't have USB debugging. Me being careless, I was in download mode and while trying to setup TWRP I typed:

"fastboot flash boot twrp-3.0.0-3-hiae.img"

instead of

"fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.0-3-hiae.img"

Now whenever I boot it takes me to my recovery and I can't change the boot image because USB debugging is disabled. I hope my htc isn't done because of my carelessness.
[HTC One A9] rouyal:
what happens when you tell twrp to reboot to recovery or download mode? I'm guessing that those are still factory, if so, fastboot commands might work in one of those, if you can get into one, to reflash boot.

Recovery mode shows a phone icon, then you need to press and hold power button and tap vol up to go fully into recovery mode.
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
I was not seeing my questions answered in detail about the new Gear VR, so I decided to just buy the item myself and give it a test run with my Note 4.

Yes, it works and fits just fine without modding.

No, the charge port still does not work even with the provided adapter.

Yes, you can enjoy cardboard apps with it.

No, your D-pad will not work with Cardboard apps.

They say the field of view is greater. It is obviously less for me, at least for the Note 4.

It is definitely a midnight blue color with black accents. Looks black in a lot of photos.

No you may not mod the cover with a cooling fan because the cover does not fit while the phone is mounted.

In conclusion, I will be returning the product because while the Gear VR experience is super cool, the last model (SM-R322), once modded, is better on all fronts minus working charge port.

Edit: I got the D-pad to work with Google Cardboard by restarting the phone
[Samsung Gear VR] dave106:
Didn't snap a few pictures with the Note 4 in it by any chance? I assume that the headphone jack is blocked off as well?
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
I'm pretty sure it is, but let me see if I can open the pkg back up and get a few pics
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
My bad, getting pics now. No, headphone jack is NOT blocked off. Ok, here is the mask that lessens the field of view from the old one. There is the cover that doesn't fit while the phone is mounted, and there is the headphones jack clearance that can now be used.
[Samsung Gear VR] Eddie Hicks:
I wonder if the cover doesn't fit because you have a Note 4. If it's the same for all phones I guess it's just to protect the lens.
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
Deleted
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
Could be but I'm sure I read the same complaint for a different model elsewhere. Perhaps someone else can confirm or deny.

The fit is also quite different. This cover latches into the clips in place of the phone while the older one wraps around the bulk of the front enclosing the headset. This cover does not enclose, it just kinda sits in there.
[Samsung Gear VR] Eddie Hicks:
I have the 2015 version and I only use the cover to protect the lens when I'm not using it. I don't see the purpose of using the cover when your phone is in the Gear VR. Besides it may hold in heat. I don't think many people with the older gear use the cover with the phone in. That's probably why they redesigned it as a protective cover when not in use.
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
Yeah, I gotcha. Those of us with really awful overheating issues have come to depend on that old cover for our cooling mods. The info about the cover is applicable to those owners. Appreciate the feedback everyone!
[Samsung Gear VR] DarkGuyver:
When you first install the Note 4 (without the Oculus software installed) into the new GearVR do you still get prompted to download the Oculus software?
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
Sorry, can't say for sure since I already had the Oculus software installed from my old headset.
[Samsung Gear VR] muneebrocks:
hey it did for me

though I have a custom rom which identifies by phone as a s7e
[Samsung Gear VR] DarkGuyver:
In that case it should also work with a N910C running stock firmware. I will post a update to say if it does once I get a Gear VR.
[Samsung Gear VR] daveyp225:
My verizon note4 works perfectly with the 2016 gear vr. It prompted me to install oculus apps.

Ive also streamed a few pc games from my gaming pc and it works well.

But it doesnt charge while in use through the passthrough charging port. Any workarounds for this?? I think I might need to get one of those 10000mah batteries.
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
Have seen zero workarounds. Good thing is this version is probably better with extended batteries and their fatter backs. Please let us know if you give it a go.
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
lukasz mentioned on the other Note 4 post that he had to make a headset mod. I guess that all depends on your vision and how recessed back into the headset you have to go. With my vision, I would not have to make that mod because it jutted enough forward to give me headset port clearance. Something to consider
[Samsung Gear VR] AnthonyByrne:
My fan mod for Note 4:)
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
VERY NICE and innovative, thanks for sharing!!!
[Samsung Gear VR] AnthonyByrne:
Ok....I picked up a 323 this morning.....I'll do a report later.

I'm coming from the original Note 4 version which is superbly built

It will be fun to compare the 2?
[Samsung Gear VR] AnthonyByrne:
I spent a good bit of time assessing the 323 with the Note 4 bearing in mind that I came from the 1st innovator edition.

I have to say that it's a big step forward

A few points

It fits in with no modding

I had to re boot the phone to get cardboard to work with the touch pad.... I use the Cardboard for Gear VR app

I think that the usb connector is a bit bit fiddly and sometimes you have to jig it a little to make contact......but I suspect that's the same for all phones on this VR....it might be the usb adapter

The headphone area doesn't need modding depending on what headphones you use.....Samsung phone ones grand....Bose QC 25 grand....Sennheiser 414's no go

The wide field of is fantastic and the lenses seem much sharper.......now this is important!..... When I first tried it there was some serious warping on the sides of the screens...movies etc. The fix is to delete every bit of Oculus and VR software (not cardboard apps) and resintall.....that seemed to improve it dramatically. I don't think I could have lived with the warping

It might be heating up the phone a bit faster but not sure about that without further testing. I find Samsung Internet a heat hog especially when streaming videos etc

The fogging is much better

Oh yes and the usb power socket doesn't work

The build quality can't compare but all in all it's a better vr experience......

I never tried the modded 322 so can't compare but I expect that the wider field of view would make it worth it

Bottom line is I'll be selling my Note 4 Innovator edition......although I think the value will drop now that this 323 has come out:)

Hope this helps:good:
[Samsung Gear VR] samuelq:
Gear VR

Friends, Note 4, USB host works? Can watch movies from USB on Gear VR SM-R323?

Thank you very much!
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
Yes indeed, it is very helpful. Thanks for taking the time to elaborate.

You speak on the wider field of view and how much better it is. One thing I had hoped is that someone else with the 322 would speak to that issue a little more. I don't know if the Innovator is the same fov as the 322 or not. But, the noticeable difference in field of view is exactly why i sent mine back. It was more clear for sure, just not $100 more clear as my vision has adjusted quite well now. But wider, I did not experience. I had less field of view and more tunnel on the sides. There's not a whole lotta ways you can put a phone in there. I still wonder if I did something wrong and should try it again, especially with the better experiences you all have mentioned.

Appreciate all the useful input AnthonyByrne!
[Samsung Gear VR] AnthonyByrne:
I'm sure the lenses in the 322 are as good as the 323. The wider field of view is probably only slight.

There is still a slight warp on the sides of big movie screens....it's a bit like being at a Cinerama in the 60's....still the clarity and less fogging makes it work for me. I don't know if the warping is a feature of 323 wider field...I'd have to see a Note 7 to be sure...zero warping on the Note 4 edition. The Innovator is much heavier but a beautifully built piece of kit. I plan to get a Note 7 when my upgrade is due....the 323 will reach it's full potential then.
[Samsung Gear VR] arushand:
After reading this post I purchased the r323 for my note 4 and i can confirm that it works great.

It fits with no mods.

The software installs perfectly and the headset works seemlessly as if it was designed for the note 4.

The only issue is that the overheating message comes up after 20 mins and the frame rate drops down and works slow, it's near unusable if your moving. But if you're watching a 2d film it wouldn't be a problem. But the fact is I get the message even though my phone is not that hot but the software still limits the performance after the message. If you ask me, the message and performance limitations after the message are completely idotic and unnecessary feature.
[Samsung Gear VR] AnthonyByrne:
Huge improvement with the latest updates.....no more warping. Moon player plays AC3
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
FYI for those with rooted phones, I've been using build prop SM-G935T to ensure I have access to all game levels and no distortion in Oculus. My genuine build prop is SM-N910V
[Samsung Gear VR] AhmadLight:
So to sum things up,

Anyone, do you have any issues like screen wrapping at edges or being like looking through fishbowl lenses?

What about the tracking pad?
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
I'm going to answer this even though I sent it back. I had zero visual issues and the trackpad worked fine once I restarted the phone for the first time. Maybe someone else can chime in for longterm use.
[Samsung Gear VR] AnthonyByrne:
I had the fishbowel until later updates seem to fix it completely.
[Samsung Gear VR] AhmadLight:
Thanks for the quick reply :)
[Samsung Gear VR] AhmadLight:
I've just got my R323 Gear VR and tried it with my Note 4

I'm very disappointed with the FOV

It's not even 60 degrees!!

Am I the only one?
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
No, I have the same issue a more narrow but not problematic field of view which is why I returned it and prefer the modified 322.
[Samsung Gear VR] AhmadLight:
So why did you say you had zero visual issues?

It's not even usable this way!
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
Let me revise my statement. I didn't have any issues, the fov just wasn't as much as advertised. For me to say it is "60" would be an exaggeration of my experience. It wasn't at all that low for me. It simply was not higher than the old version. It was a little less which is not the experience I had in mind. Not sure I'd consider this an issue. My expectations just weren't met. It was usable so there may be something else going on with your setup.
[Samsung Gear VR] AhmadLight:
OK, if it might be my device that has issues, could it be a software issue that causes this low FOV?
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
I don't know a lot about this VR stuff. But my hunch from earlier in the thread is just that the black viewfinder part blocks the new wider lens from inside, for me, cancelling out the supposed wider field of view. Another poster did not notice a wider field of view either. But there seems to be more folks out there who are fine with it as is or they simply haven't noticed or compared the two.
[Samsung Gear VR] AhmadLight:
OK let me add some notes:

1- I've sold my Gear VR today and I'm happy that my money is back :)

2- Note 4 doesn't charge or even stay at the same charging level when Gear VR is plugged (it was mentioned before, just confirming)

3- The most important part, FOV, I'm not good in measuring it in angles and maybe I overestimated it in my previous reply when I said it's 60 degrees, but anyway, after I sold it, I went back to the nearest store and tried the Live Demo there for the older Gear VR R322 with S7 Edge in it, I AM 100% SURE it's the exact same FOV I saw in my NOTE 4 without any MODs done!! not less, not more! The story is simple, when I tested it out the first time before I buy my own Gear VR, I tried this game only: GUNJACK, come on! it's a game in space and everything at the edges is BLACK, that's why I didn't notice the edges of the lenses and thought that the FOV is OVERWHELMING!! That extended the FOV extremely for me. But when I tried Ocean Rift (which is underwater game) today after selling my Gear VR, I saw the exact view I had seen with my Gear VR R323.

I don't know whether it's my eyes' sight or it's just normal, but the FOV for both are just bad. I didn't like neither of them and it's a waste of money in my opinion.
[Samsung Gear VR] Mtotallywired:
hoping someone comes out with a charging port hack for Note 4. Is it even possible?
[Samsung Gear VR] bagery77:
Loving that idea. I've kinda lost hope at this point :(
