I have not used SPIGEN dual-layer case for my A5 (yet); however, I have used SPIGEN dual's, like the one your link points to, for two years on my Nexus 5. It was a fantastic case and saved that phone's life more than once.

---------- Post added at 12:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 AM ----------

There's a chain of stores here in Toronto, Canada that sell a film-based protection. FONELAB. They have a tablet with every known smartphone's dimensions. You present your phone, they look it up in their database then laser cut a special military grade film to you device's exact dimensions and cutouts.. You can choose -- front only, back only or a full wrap. They then chemical clean your surfaces and apply the film using a wet process.

Very neat solution, especially for Edge phones.

This isn't so much for drop protection, though it is better than naked. The film cannot be cut or scratched. If you ever choose to remove it, it peels of WITHOUT an adhesive residue.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Accessories] kaizokan:
depends on what you need / want to use it for

For anyone that wants minimum protection, yet real protection then I also can recommend the Spigen Liquid Air Armor

The reason I say real protection, is that this one unlike many other cases does actually protect your phone also on the front side. It has good raised edges that protect your screen from falls.

I would still put this one in the category of the "regular" cases as it does not add much bulk to it. It is however more bulkier than those other ones that can be found in standard the phone shops. The reason is that most of the standard or cheap cases try to be as thin as possible to make it look good or make using it easier because of the now more curved edges phones have or the swipe menu movements. Resulting in low (al most screen height) and weak edges that cannot protect your screen.

The only thing i like less about this case is the sharp look it has on the design because of the edges, giving it a more square and strong look though.

I have seen another case, which was bought in a phone shop (Vodafone it was I believe), but I can't find this one in (Vodafone) shops locally. It was only in clear color i believe. but it was more rounded, felt slightly better in use but still good enough protection to not call it useless.

Do you believe that a leather wallet case can efficiently protect my A5 2017 from drops?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Accessories] MTG Joel:
If OtterBox made a defender Case I would have gone for that but sadly no luck there so after an exhaustive search with not many promising results I ended up going with the UAG case and a glass screen cover designed to fit the curved screen. Altogether i didn't end up having to spend more than $50 and I am quite happy with the results and have dropped it on asphalt and concrete without any damage. I highly recommend the Urban Armor Gear case as the other options out there are purely superficial in regards to protection.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Accessories] supertac:
I had that first one... it was alright

honestly I'd get the cheapest clear case from ebay... after rocking a caseless galaxy s7 active I've come to enjoy minimalist designs even if the phone takes a beating from a drop. invest in a solid tampered glass screen protector though
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Accessories] stritzi:
I always buy the "cheapest one" I get (last is made of "leather";)), is a flip case and cost around 6€ inclusive shipping - now I own it more than a year and it still look "good" and after all: it still works!

[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Accessories] broky:

very satisfied with build quality and grip,also does not add much volume on the device:)

EDIT:and after 4 massive drops the phone was protected just fine.

T-MOBILE LG G6 LTE-U SUPPORT

LTE-U and LWA supported in Snapdragon X12 LTE Modem

LTE-U, along with LWA, is supported by the Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 820 processor with X12 LTE , as well as by the discrete Snapdragon X12 LTE modem. This is a good example of how multiple technologies are required to make the best use of all spectrum: LTE Advanced carrier aggregation, tri-band Wi-Fi with 802.11n, 802.11ac MU-MIMO and 802.11ad, and now also LTE-U and LWA.

LG G6 T-MOBILE

Featuring a Snapdragon 821 Processor.

The LG G6 delivers superior connectivity, graphics, photography, and power efficiency with an integrated Snapdragon X12 LTE modem, and the Qualcomm Adreno 530 GPU.

What does that mean :laugh::fingers-crossed: WE SHOULD GET LTE-U ON LG G6 T-MOBILE
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atarax42:
The rooting status of my phone says: 'Bootloader unlock allowed: No'. Some hours of research made me believe that on the user side it is not possible to change that status. So I am stuck with my locked bootloader. Originally I wanted to flash LineageOS, but this ROM seems to depend on an unlocked BL. Please correct me, if I'm wrong. Now I am looking for an alternative that can be installed by a not so experienced user (me). Surely, I don't want to brick my phone. My first question is, what conditions does a ROM have to meet to be installable on a BL locked device? Are old ROMs of CyanogenMod an option? Or plain Android? Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feromgar:
https://xdaforums.com/xperia-sp/development/xperiasp-locked-bootloader-lbl-t2947194

That's lolipop and was the last one made for locked bootloader. It has all the steps in there. I don't know if all the linked stuff works, but I can confirm that the ROM's link is still up.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atarax42:
The download links on d-h.st only redirect me to advertisement pages, but no file can be downloaded :(

Anyway, can I conclude, that all ROMs based on Marshmallow and later cannot be flashed with LBL, and ROMs based on Lollypop and earlier can?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feromgar:
Basically, yes. Not all of the ROMs not based around Marshmallow/Nougat can be installed on LBL phones, though. If the op or the thread title doesn't mention that it can be installed on LBL phones then you can't.

I have an archive of last CM builds on my gdrive

There are also one stable build of 4.4 for unlocked bootloader
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atarax42:
Is the installation process the same as for this ROM?

Do I need a kernel upgrade? Current: 3.4.0
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atarax42:
Please, could anyone check and comment on my work-flow for the installation of CM11 on my Xperia SP with LBL? I haven't done it yet, but want to make sure this is the correct way, so I will not brick my phone. One thing, I am not sure of is, whether I need to upgrade the kernel, since CM11 is based on KitKat (I believe) and I still have the JellyBean kernel... Another open question is, will the Nandroid backup be erased from the internal storage as well by applying the 'Wipe' function of TWRP?

I have an LG G3 Stylus running CM 12 (5.1.1). Whenever I restart my phone my led notification light flashes as if I have a notification but I don't. The led continues to blink abnormally for about a day until it stops. Then it functions as normal, only blinking when there actually is a notification.

I need help on finding out what's causing my led to blink. I downloaded Light Flow to see what was causing it but it always said no active notification.

I have the v500 on Lineage OS version 14.1-20170505-nightly-v500. I'm trying to update and noticed I lost root at some point. I have TWRP 2.8.6; and when I try to do anything in recovery, TWRP freezes, and I have to reboot. It's not bricked and I can boot fine, but it appears I lost root and cannot figure out when. I've flashed several versions of Lineage OS and this is the first time I'm having issues. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I would try flashing the add on SU zip, but I don't know how you'd do it if TWRP doesn't work.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmatg:
I tried to install the add on su zip using sideload and when I try to start sideload using adb in TWRP, the device disconnects from adb. I saw where people lost root when they first installed LineageOS, but got it back with the next update. TWRP cannot backup, install, wipe, or sideload (via advanced). It's an interesting predicament. I've unbricked devices easier than trying to fix this.

Ensure you have a good charger and charge it for a few hours. While you're waiting, download the stock ROM from Moto. Then remove it from the charger and press and hold vol down and power for at least 60 seconds , and I've seen it take up to 2-3 min. It should get you into fastboot at least.

[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] don brian:
Hi, anybody have this problem after update of their Mi Max Prime from Marshmallow to Nougat? Noticed this bug after installation of the official OTA update to Nougat. Sim toolkit is very important because it contains many network options from the network service provider like roaming options, money transfer, and other value added services.

It's suddenly missing after nougat update. The only way to bring it back is to open the sim tray while the phone is on and then closing back the sim tray. The sim toolkit would then suddenly reappear. However, once you reboot the phone, it's gone again and you have to do the sim tray opening trick again to get the app back. Is there a way to correct this problem permanently? Xiaomi probably did not see this bug before they released the final nougat firmware update.

For odin flash just download the correct firmware unzip it and flash.

For a custom rom you will need twrp to flash it as they are flashed as zip files.

Im wondering though if doing either may be beyond your current evel of knowledge based on your question about root. Best to read up on both if I were you.
