Just as the subject line states: Who is interested in a *Real* Carbon Fibre Composite Case for their Samsung Galaxy Tab?

There is a company in Florida that made my HTC Supersonic (Evo 4G) Carbon Fibre Composite Case. Very very good quality stuff, not only the quality of the fabric is top notch but the fitment is perfect.

About a week ago i contacted them and asked if they would be manufacturing a case for our Galaxy Tabs and they are waiting to see how many requests they get before putting the time in on developement and testing.

How much you ask? Not exactly sure, but they manufacture a case for the iPad which is $124.95 and a majority of their smartphone cases are $99.95, so i would say pricing would be on or around $124.95 for this case.

If you guys are interested, please contact them via Facebook @ www.facebook.com/infinitycarbon or on their website @ http://www.InfinityCarbon.com.

Thanks in advance!

Today, 12/27/10, i was contacted by Infinity Carbon:

"Good news! We are currently working on cases for the Galaxy Tab and they should be available in our store in just a couple of weeks!"

*EDIT*

PROTOTYPE PIX ADDED!!!

Here are pix of the Prototype Carbon Composite Piece. Infinity Carbon has informed me that *INSTALLED* pix will be available sometime next week, which i will post as well. If you would like, you can also PRE-ORDER your Carbon Fibre Composite Case *NOW* just go to:

i would definitely interested as long as the sides are protected as well =)
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] rpmbnsf:
I voted yes but then got to thinking about it. Carbon Fiber is very strong but not made to hold up against scuffing and scraping. now if they put a very durable coating over the carbon then I would be interested in it.

What I'd love to see is this type of cover but one that replaces the back cover totally..and wraps around the sides protecting them too. that would make it almost nude size-wise and back pocketable. And, yes, I know that would void my warranty..but looking at my ATT Tab and its faux back carbon lookalike cover made me wish for the real thing..and gave me that idea.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Croak:
Sounds like an appliqué like the PhantomSkinz Chromatics would suit your needs. Do a little XDA searching for feedback, and I posted a link in the Accessories sub-forum regarding the Tab. It's just a sticker, but it's a good sticker. :)
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
OK Guys, i just got conformation from Infinity Carbon that they are going to go ahead and start the manufacturing process for our Galaxy Tabs!!!

From Infinity Carbon:

"Good news! We are currently working on cases for the Galaxy Tab and they should be available in our store in just a couple of weeks!"
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] beestee:
I have had poor experience with real CF cases on wireless devices. They look great, they are extremely light and sleek, but they interfere with signal in a major way. In fact one that i purchased for an iPhone i had was a CF/Kevlar composite fabric made specifically to reduce interference, and yet it still caused very noticable interference.

If the weave was thin and loose, then perhaps it would work better in regards to signal, but then it would not be as strong or visually appealing IMO.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] jay_jay_n:
good job pls try to do a type of way to have teh cf wrap the sides or at least protect the sides similar to gel cases, i know that you can make flexible type of cf ( i used to work with a cf company for scion parts ) just hope it will look great and protect well =)
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
Pix added to the first post!

*INSTALLED* Pix Added to first post!
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] natious:
Do they have a tighter weave they can use?
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
They use what most Carbon Fibre Composite Parts are manufactured with, 2x2 3k. I'm not sure if you mean 1x1, aka Plain Weave, which cuts the looks down to tinys sqaures instead of what you see here.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
Infinity Carbon January 7 at 9:51am Report

I doubt we will be offering the 1x1 plain weave as that is not very sought after these days but we can always make it as a custom order so if they want to email me we can discuss the options. sales@infinitycarbon.com

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Diesel_Dave:
Hi guys, I just junked my G1 and got my first Windows phone this week. I miss my boggle though and I figured it would be faster to write boggle than dig around and try to find one that did exactly what I wanted. It works fine on my HD2, but I'm not sure what other screen sizes will do or what the permissions situation is for writing it's ini files to the file system. It looks horrible but it does everything I was wanting. It has a lot of options for variations like which dice sets to use and times etc.

This is kind of an alpha version. It works fine from me but YMMV. If there's interest I might continue with the polishing aspects of it etc.

PS Java is the new Cobol.
[HD7 General] Jace100:
I just got my HD7 last night and it seems that the device does not have an external notification LED. I've tried searching through the specs for the device but I can't a definitive answer.

Does the HD7 have a notification LED? And if so, do I need to enable it in settings to illuminate when I get Email and Texts?
[HD7 General] rysky007:
Nope, it doesn't have it :) i was as shocked as you, it has the light for when you battery is low but that it.

I mean common who needs notification lights, the general purpose of this phone is face book or to buy songs :) as others who feel the light is not necessary will tell you.

I freaking hate that it doesn't have it.
[HD7 General] Jace100:
That sucks.

That could actually be a deal breaker for me. I need the phone for work but my department head doesn't want people "always checking their phones" during meetings. The indicator LED is a perfect solution for this because I can just leave the phone on the table and just watch for the light to illuminate.

Ugh.
[HD7 General] frontieruk:
actually it is a notification light, it just doesn't notify you of new texts or emails, but try ringing your mobile and not answering... that's right it'll flash for a missed call, how hard would it of been to add the feature for texts and emails? ;)
[HD7 General] rysky007:
Hmm, mine does not, when I have a missed call, no light I only see the light when battery is low or charging.
[HD7 General] stillbrad:
Yep mine works for missed calls...im sure someone will come up with something so we can change this. That is if anybody ever does any work on altering WP7.:rolleyes:
[HD7 General] biker74:
Yep, missed calls and charging, sure it does it for something else, but cant think right now. Also, they might change the LED notifications in the update - I live in hope.

[Droid 2 General] Stalte:
So is there a hack for getting around the whole exploding problem?

Do you think he rooted his phone? If so was this the first case of the Efuse getting revenge.

Finally is there an app for this? :p

Wow that is insane.... I hope my phone blows up in my face and I can win a big lawsuit with Motorola :P
[Droid 2 General] Stalte:
I would recommend wearing a helmet lol
[Droid 2 General] HerroMoto:
Lmfao, next time I talk on the phone I'll always have a helmet handy. Thanks for the advice!
[Droid 2 General] silverfang77:
He probably had his Droid2 overclocked or heavily modded and it overheated from the strain.
[Droid 2 General] Visionikz03:
Maybe he didn't read the notes about when u root ur phone the dev is not responsible for ur phone blowing up :o or killing ur cat or malfunctioning lol... yes i know he prolly wasn't rooted cuz it was only a few days old according to the article or at least so we think... but nonetheless I still immediately thought of every post the devs put up when flashing a custom rom :D hopefully his hearing is not affected in the long term.

EDIT: just saw the video on FOX4... the man said "It's an incredible phone... perhaps a little too incredible" LOL
[Droid 2 General] koberko:
OK, I think that this is fake; or to be more precise; guy is faking.

I think that he did had some sort of accident, and due to his lack of medical care, he decided to blame it on phone;

1. only thing that can explode inside mobile phone, is battery. So if she blow up, then there will be more damage on back of phone, and less on front side.

When battery blows up, it makes a lot of heat, so there will be heat marks on phone.

And of course; guy will have his hand injured, not head (or there will be at least some injury to hand)

2. look at this picture:

you can see that part of housing where is hole for speaker is clearly dented inwards (biggest red arrow)? That cracked screen was result of phone being hit by something, not exploding.

3. if there was a explosion, there will be parts of screen missing due to outwards thrust of explosion and that parts will produce injury on guys ear, as he did have his ear injured, but as I can see, all peaces of glass are still holding on, and non is missing, so question is; what have injured his ear??

4. blood on phone looks like it was dropping on to phone (smaller arrows); it's not looking like a splash that will be result of some explosion and spray of blood. And it surly didn't happened afterwards, because guy has mentioned that he notice blood pouring down his neck, and If you had you phone exploding in to your face, you will drop it as far away ass possible; you won't hold it next to your head, so that it can get bloody.

And just to make it clear; this is only mine opinion, based on images and video found on internet, and as that, I can be totally wrong; only legit thing that will make this clear is official investigation.

And something else, not related to that guy and his phone:

4 stitches and a cat scan 4000$ ?!?!?!?! :confused::confused::confused: WTF?! Do you in US have golden threads for stitching, and do you get Tai massage while getting cat scan (or even something more)?! That's crazy!!

P.S. Thank you C.S.I. :D:D

P.P.S. Here is article with video: http://www.phonearena.com/news/Man-claims-Motorola-DROID-2-exploded-leaving-him-injured_id15068
[Droid 2 General] tbaker077:
You are not the only Kob, some of the members of other Android sites have came to the same conclusion as you have. Explosion seems a bit fishy.
[Droid 2 General] koberko:
Yeah; just take a look what battery did to iPhone:

If that happened, then cut on that guys ear would be least of his problems; I have found couple images of some unfortunate peoples hand after that kind of incident, but I won't post them here, because images are to graphic. :(

On the other hand, here is one article regarding French kid that was injured by iPhone whose screen exploded:

http://hardwarespecs.blogspot.com/2009/08/iphone-exploded-injuring-french.html

And one more article with some different explanation:

http://bbsipodtouchhelp.com/archives/591

They say that it was not a battery, but it was a pressure; they say that he has probably squash phone to hard, and screen broke (and it looks like that, especially if you take in consideration image from start of this post).

Same thing may happened to this guy with Motorola; he was talking to someone on phone, get upset, and squash phone to hard (it's possible if you are really pissed of), and screen broke, and cut his ear. If that's a case, then it's his own fault, and he has no right to ask for compensation from Motorola (but I think that they will pay, just to keep him quiet).....

But I can't take my eyes from that image of phones screen; it totally looks like screen was hit with something.

And one more thing that bother me; i think that was totally lame to play "kids" card by guys wife. It's not like all phones will suddenly start to explode and kill kids. Man, I hate this paranoia that's got in to people these days. :mad::mad:
[Droid 2 General] 1454:
This idiot just dropped his phone and didn't have insurance or something. This pic looks exactly like my phone did when I dropped it. I don't believe his phone "exploded" for a minute.
[Droid 2 General] Quacker:
Fascinating, isn't it? Just be thankful your country actually puts its citizens' health before that of corporate profit margins.

And yeah, I think you're onto something... the story doesn't really make much sense.
[Droid 2 General] infiltwb:
I agree 100% that that is an impact to the front of the phone. Even if the battery melted down or popped it would not take out the speaker. This is an a$$#ole lookin for a paycheck.
[Droid 2 General] koberko:
Here is one nice comment that makes sense (from this page: http://phandroid.com/2010/12/03/motorola-droid-2-explodes-in-mans-ear-shenanigans/)

Oh, and one more thing; I think that this guys phone is still working! Check this out:

You can see it for your self in video on this page: http://www.phonearena.com/news/Man-claims-Motorola-DROID-2-exploded-leaving-him-injured_id15068

At 3:00 mark (you can see it blink)

So if that phone is still working, how can he then explode with enough power to injure this guy, but still be working after that???

So, that from quote in beginning of this post makes a lot of sense; he broke glass on phone by some accident, and while using still functional phone, he cut him self on broken glass.
[Droid 2 General] Visionikz03:
I think there are more factors pointing towards fraud than legitimacy... first off nothing in that phone is powerful enough to exert that kind of force other than the battery which we all know if exploded the phone would not look that intact, it would not be functioning as flashing status light indicated in video, and he would prolly not have hearing on the affected ear. Two the fact that he doesnt have insurance but has a droid 2 seems to be backwards priorities but to each his own... this looks like simple owner negligence nd he wants motorola to give him a free droid nd pay for his self inflicted injuries.
[Droid 2 General] koberko:
Yeah, exactly; and also, ear is full of small vessels, so even minor injury to ear can look messy; and 4 stitches indicate small cut; I has once one injury as a kid, where I got cut in ridge between my eyes (top of nose) and it was bit more then 1cm long (let's say half inch), and I got 6 stitches. And all cuts on face are bloody; that cut that I had, make me lost around 1 liter of blood before I manage to stop it, and till time I got to hospital, I was starting to faint. There they got me couple units of blood and stitch me up, and I was fine.

So, if I had to bet on more likely scenario; I would bet on cut by previously broken glass on phone.
[Droid 2 General] koberko:
Well, it's not all great here eider; but at least, first thing that passes through you mind when you get injured is not "omg, how much will that cost me?!" And people don't do crazy stunts while trying to come up with money for health bill.
[Droid 2 General] tbaker077:
You know the phone is working when his wife tells the news reporters he was getting calls while the phone was with her at school.
[Droid 2 General] koberko:
In this article is one more news report; a the end, they say that phone is still working and receiving calls (2. clip): http://androidos.in/2010/12/motorola-droid-2-explodes-during-call/

This defiantly eliminates any "explosion" :D

So, in mine opinion, there are 4 possible scenarios:

1. Some fault in phones glass, that made it crack under normal circumstances and normal operational conditions.

2. User induced stress on phones glass that made it crack

3. Accident not related to phone, and then phone was intentionality damaged to make it look like a phone is cause of that injury.

4. Phone damaged in unrelated incident, but then damaged glass on phone induces injury to guys ear.
[Droid 2 General] leobg:
^ 4.

As the guy apparenly did not have medical insurance and obviously the hospital came after for payment, he made up the 'explosion' story to try put it on Motorola's bill. How 'shallow' story that is.

I guess explosions are "the fruit phone" specialty /end sarcasm/ ;)
[Droid 2 General] Renegade8100:
awesome reply man

More awesome points. If I could i'd give you 600 rep points.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ruud Westerhout:
Hi all,

any of You jumped the train from a TP2. Care to give some comparing between these two. Speed / stability (stock) / functionality.

This is one of the phones I am thinking about, would love to hear your experience.

Ruud
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Yep, I made the jump and I know I'm not alone. In short, the DZ is miles better than the TP2. It's much faster, smoother, and all the Android stuff just works very nicely. Tons and tons of apps in the Android market. No issues with running out of RAM.

Build quality is awesome IMHO.

I do miss the extra row of keys that the TP2 keyboard has, but I think the buttons on the DZ keyboard are even better than the TP2 buttons.

I'm still running a stock ROM and am not even overclocking yet (and huge overclocking increases are possible).

Can you tell that I quite like my DZ ? :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] wolek76:
Well, I did take a plunge a week ago and I'm more than impressed. Everything is pretty much where I'd expect it to be. There was some initial 'seething' issues with changing from winmo to Android, but after 2 days I got used to it without any probs.

There is one thing that may be an issue, (its not phone related but OS related).... please correct me if I'm wrong but only today I realized that Android DOES NOT SUPPORT BT INITIATED DIALLING. So, keep that in mind... it turns out to be a big obstacle for devs and can be an issue for some....

There are apps out there trying to imitate the feature but I found them to be a complete waste of time.

Other than that, go on, make a switch, you will not regret :)

sent from htc desire Z
[G2 and Desire Z General] toosas:
Almost every aspect is better, especially speed and responsiveness, android market is lots of fun, as well as htc sense's seamless integration with lots of different services.

GPS is infinitely faster at locking on and there is no lag. If you have copilot for winmo, it should work on android too (deactivate 1st)

The downsides of Z: the 4 row keyboard is inferior, plus lack of directional keys (the touch button isnt as convenient to use), but there isn't much choice if you're going for android.

Hinge mechanism isn't a step forward, more like a step sideways if not backwards.

I've yet to find a good video player, importing ringtones or other system sounds is a bit more painful (others might disagree). Active syncs equivalent, HTC sync is ok-ish and makes life a bit easier.

No MS Office programs, gotta buy alternatives (can somebody recommend one?)

My TP2s battery seems to last longer in comparison.

And finally, flashing custom roms onto TP2 was infinitely easier than on DZ (I've yet to brave rooting)
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Ah yes, I forgot that one. I can't believe how quick my DZ gives me a GPS lock !

What about the built-in QuickOffice ? Not as much functionality as Office Mobile of course, but not bad for free.
