[Q] Metal Cover? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I wanted to buy a brushed aluminum back cover for my S2 that I found on eBay but I was wondering, will it disrupt the phone signal and interfere with the antenna?
I've attached some pics, I think it makes it look stunning.

Aluminum? It doesn't disrupt any signal. Some magnet does, yet I never seen any disruption when I used my Molife case which had a flip lock magnet.

AWESOME .............!!!!!!!!!!

Best case for jeans pockets?

I'm looking a light and thin case for my 8125 to put it in my jeans front pocket. I was thinking about a aluminum case but have read reports of signal lost with it. So I'm open to sugestions.
Thanks
Diego
I have been using the one from http://www.senacases.com/catalog/i-mate-KJAM-CASES-p-1-c-396.html (no belt clip version) and have been very happy with it.
What about those cheap ($10 shipped) plastic ones from Ebay. I bought one for my MDA, but wasnt thrilled with it. It fit nicely enuf, but made it a little (more) bullky. I didn't notice any signal loss or anything though.
im using an aluminium case but i didnt notice any signal loss ....
Aluminum case
I also use an aluminum case and I didn't see any signal degradation. I use it everyday and even on the move I am still connected to the Internet.
I find this case good for my Wizard. I wear it in the front pocket of my jeans all the time, with the case inside my pocket, and the clip facing out to keep it at the top of my pocket. It's a little tight at 1st, but after about a week the elastic will strech and fit nice.

[Q] Sikai Case Mod Help

I have had one of these cases for a while, and really feel it is one of the nicer ones out there for the Prime, but lately the lack of a magnetic clasps on the back of the case has been bothering me for when I have the cover open. I have been looking to putting a thin metal sheet on the back under the leather back and then put some magnets on the cover. I was curious if there was anyone who may know of a good site to grab some thin sheets of metal that the magnets would actually attract to.

Bumper case for S-View / S-Cover users?

I want it all! I want full S-View, wireless charging, NFC support, protection, and support for the metallic plate that the Mountek nGrove Snap car dock uses. I figure I could put the metal plate on the flip cover portion so that it does not interfere with NFC and wireless charging (just flip 'n' stick), but that still leaves me wanting a locking cover with drop protection like the Slim Armor View. My current bumper case (Bear Motion, same as Poetic) provides drop protection with the official Samsung wireless charge cover battery door but I still want an S-View flip cover and a way to lock it.
It seems to me that it would be very easy to design a three-sided bumper for the S-View cover by just making a bent rod that goes around and behind the S-View cover hinge. From there, I'm sure a mechanism for securing the cover flap is possible, even if it's just a bit of elastic or something.
Think anything like this is in the works? I'd love to see it!

aluminium/metal cover

have you some aluminium cover for lg g3 to recommend? Like the verus one. Thank you
i wouldent use a metal covers since they are known for blocking wifi/mobile signal
I had a Aluminium bumper and the mobile signal was horrible.
bad idea like it was said it blocks rf signal. plus just because it's metal doesn't mean it's stronger than polycarbonate plus you don't necessarely want a strong cover as it might damage the phone. plus it interferes with the magnetometer used for example in some gps apps. it's crap. a gymmic. good quality plastic is way much better
ok, so do you know some nice cover? I really don't know what buy :/
A slim tpu case with a lip ove the screen. Ive gone through many cases including the spigen Slim Armor. But i kept going back to a tpu case

Noreve S7 Leather Case?

Anyone use the Noreve S7 Leather case? http://www.noreve.com/en/galaxy-s7/3219-samsung-galaxy-s7-leather-case.html
It looks like the edges are not completely covered.... if I dropped my phone would this protect it from cracking the glass?
Also, newbie question.... can the leather case allow wireless charging?
Hey.
I don't use the case, but it's pretty nice looking! I doubt it would protect your phone if you were to drop it - there's not enough material to absorb the force from the impact, so most of the force would be transferred directly to your phone.
You could, however, use the case when you're at home and swap it for something more protective for when you're going out.
Yes, leather and plastic cases will allow wireless charging, although metal won't.
Do you think it's relevant that the rounded edges aren't completely covered by the case? I believe the Samsung version completely covers the edges. Would that make the Samsung a better case for protection if I drop it?
