Leather case left scuff marks all over my NT - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

I bought this case:
http://www.amazon.com/rooCASE-Leath...KP1G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326056034&sr=8-1
I ended up returning it. It's a nice case, but it left scuff marks all over my NT. I haven't been able to remove the marks with Goo-Gone or isopropyl alcohol. Any ideas on how to clean the NT?

Same **** happened to mine not sure what to do about it tho.

OH wow, talk about timing - I was just asking this exact case in another thread on this very forum. Sorry to hear about that - hopefully you left a note in the reviews to warn others.

Good call. I'll go ahead and do that sometime.

thanks for the warning, was going to pick up one of these since there's a ton of positive reviews for the nook color

Ugh thanks for the heads up. I checked mine and found 2 tiny marks. It's such a secured case though so I just taped the sides.

Same here. Looks ugly when I take the device out of the case. But at the end of the day, I don't worry too much about it. I mean it is gonna always stay inside the case for me, ugly marks are all hidden.

I had this problem just leaving the nook in the box it came in. Where the microfiber was sitting on it, the edge turned black and scuffed. It's an unfortunate material choice. Probably better off to keep it in one in a case that covers the edges, so you won't ever see it.

Wow I bought the same case and got the same marks.
I also tried alcohol. Im at my wits end. Almost tempted to use some kind if abraisive, but dont want to hurt my nook's finish.

Seriously?

So, I bypassed this issue after hearing about the stain issue on the Roocase from this thread.
So, to get around the problem, I got an Otterbox Commuter, and put velcro on the back of it. It gives me Otterbox-level protection with the ability to have a stand that will hold it in portrait or landscape mode. Since the stand originally just uses velcro for this it functions exactly as it originally did.
I just got vecro adhesive tape from the local WalMart and put 2 strips on the middle part of the back of the Otterbox.
One thing I like about the case is that it has a little pocket that fits a microfiber screen cleaner cloth in a small plastic envelope.

WARNING: Choose your case wisely

Dear all,
I am here to just warn you of who ever owns a roxfit case, for those who have not stick it on to their phone you might want to reconsider before doing so. And for those who have it on already you might want to reconsider as well.
I bought this case like a month ago and used it for a month. Yes it is a good case "full protection" but when i tried to take it off today i realized the following:
1- it is a PAIN in the ____ to take it off, I am not even kidding. You might think why would you want to take it off? cause one day you want to clean up the dust, take out the sim card, or maybe switch case. I nearly had to break the top left corner, that little thin strand infront of the power button, and find something to stick into the top right.
Yes, i know it might not be the right way to take it off, but I have done some research and it seems like no one knows what is the "proper way" to take it off.
ANYWAY to get to the worst part
2- you know the inside of the case it has the black rectangle thingy with white words on it saying "roxfit?" Well, when i took off the case, i realized a bunch of little tiny black/grey dots on the back of my phone. No, I cannot rub it off, and i also tried erasing it off (which is not a good idea, cause it does rub off the anti-coating and causes it to look shiny which was described in another thread)
I know its just the back cover, but still...
Not trying to complain or anything, just keep your eyes open when choosing your case

I've have 2 of their products for my S, I have the hard shell, which I broke trying to take it off, those little this bits near the switches are a pain and a weak spot. This case had a thin felt patch inside to stop it rubbing the back of my S.
I also have the leather flip over case , i've had to stop using this because unlike the hard shell there is no felt patch inside to stop it rubbing , now I have marks on the back of my phone.
For the money I paid for these items, you'd think a bit more thought would go into the design...
I know, matte coating is not a cool thing, it just feels nice.
i dont know about your XPS but on mine the front bottom part where it says "xperia" that part is also glossy shiny, obviously that part's anti coating is rubbing off just by putting in my pockets.
this is what i am planning to do instead of making the same mistakes again.
the best thing to do is to get the zagg full body kit and protect the [ top, bottom, and the "xperia part" on the front ] and then get a case that only covers the sides and the back.
I had a roxfit and never had such problems.

Thanks for the warning. In the case thread there was someone saying something about the shell feeling loose. (maybe it was you, dont remember).
I guess thats what you get with a hard shell that covers the phone's back and sides completely unless it was made of two parts or from soft material like TPU. I thought of buying this on long time ago because none of the TPU cases had a good fitt (and the buttons still usable).
I never did buy this one, but thougt about it since it's for me the best next to my TPU preference. I'm using a (little reshaped with hot water) 'Nillkin' TPU case at the moment. I also have a 'Gimmick Five' hard case, but i don't like the edges (like almost all hard cases) , its not smooth when putting it in and getting it out of my pocket for a phone with this size. I also do't think those cases offer much protection.
If you're planning on buying a ZAGG invisibleShield read this too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27896421&postcount=6
and remember this skin is only for scratches not fall damage duh (cases/covers/shells might help a little with low height falls)

Can you give us some more info? how is the fit? is it easy to take out? do you have any little scratches of the coating on the edges?
@LitoNi The case is a little flexible, maybe it has also to do with how someone tries to pull of the case?
I took my case many times off. Yeah it's not easy, that's for sure but I can't confirm your other complaints.
My phone slipped once out of my hand and landed on hard ground. I just have a few scratches on the top right corner and bottom left corner.
without the case the damage would have been probably much worse.
The case also was damaged in the bottom.
Currently I'm waiting for my nillkin flip leather case. Hope it will protect the front as well now.
Edit: that is now a little embarrassing. I actually have a krusell case, but the should be the same
I have the roxfit hard shell as well. It fits perfectly and doesn't feel loose at all. As for taking it off, well yeah it's a snug fit, so taking it off requires a bit of fiddling. But it is definitely not impossible to take it off without breaking it. Then again you shouldn't have to take it off daily, so for me it's not a problem.I usually just push the bottom corners of the case down, then you can stick your nail through the hole on the bottom and just push the phone out completely. Not that hard to do.
Also mine does not leave any traces on the phone. I'm pretty happy with this case.

i guess i was just the unlucky one with the stains.
anyway i changed the title so it wont be directly talking about roxfit, but cases in general
taking it out is slightly a pain in the ass... you need to flick it out from the powet button corner follow by volume side... one you flick it past both the 2 buttons, the rest is a breeze...
no there's no stain on the phone....
thanks

i start with the left side and bottom, then top side and last the right side. works everytime
Let me add that there is also a slider shell case: Incipio EDGE Hard Shell Slider Case
But please talk about this on the Xperia S Case show thread and let this thread be only for the Roxfit and Krusell shells :fingers-crossed:
It has done exactly the same to my phone....It's a joke!!!!!

Back cover project (installed cover)

I bought this white back for the phone to see what i could do with it. I took the letters off because they were not stuck on there good. They came off with a dust can.
Decided to paint it a sliver color to match the frame as close as possible. I hand painted the inside of the letters black. I don't know what to do about the "M" yet, if i'm going to put one on there or not. Maybe something else, idk.
This is what I have so far. It looks like it has a brushed look to it. After I painted it, I scuffed it with a dish scrubber to give it that look.
Last thing I do, will be spray a satin clear.
That thread title though.
Looks good.

Definitely a cool option to have something unique like that.
This does look cool. But I wonder what kind of spray paint you used and even more importantly what kind of clear coat are you going to use to withstand bending? When one removes and puts back on one has to bend this cover a bit and I'm not sure how well will paint and coat withstand this?

I used rust-o-leum paint and clear. I'm not worried about the bending. I'm taking this one off in the next few days.
I started another one with a different silver. I wont be reusing the current one.
FYI they make paint for plastic (bendable) it's mostly for bumpers on cars
I took the cover off earlier and the paint held up very well, i didnt bend the cover a whole lot to begin... i wasnt going to use it again so i decided it to test how much bend it would take and i had to bend it a lot in order for the paint to wrinkle.
I tried doing something similar for my daughter that got bored by the same old phone sleeve/case that was partially clearly transparent and partially frosted look.
I decided to paint the frosted part using RAL 9005 matte black spray paint. I haven't clear coated it yet as it was just an experiment. If it turns out to be ok I may coast it using some not so rigid coat to avoid cracking due to the rubbery nature of this sleeve.
She likes the end result. Me too. Unfortunately I'm not able to add images to my posts (haven't posted enough posts to XDA - apparently)

How did you stick the back cover back on?
I'm curious to know what you used to stick the cover on with.
The reason I ask is that my first Nexus 6 came with the cover unstuck right out of the box. I returned it (partly because I was worried that the battery may have swelled) but I'd be interested to know how hard it would have been to stick the cover back down again.

Uuhm... i had thought the idea of seeing more than one back cover in some of the more recent photo's would have indicated it... but also in the first post he says he bought a white back cover a while ago to see what he could do with it. He didn't remove and replace the same back cover. Pretty sure that's NOT possible due to the adhesive... or at least risks the ability to put it back on firmly and smoothly.

Fingerprint sensor friendly case

Hello all. I had bought my v10 last week and got my third party case from eBay a couple of days ago and that's when I learned of the sensor issue. On mine, just like others, the sensor is nearly useless.
So I did some scouting and found the UAG case. I contacted the company in regards to this case and they claim the case works 100% with the fingerprint sensor. Has anyone here used the Urban Armor Gear case? Its a pretty pricey investment and don't want to flush more $$ on cases that just won't work.
Easy Fingerprint / Case fix
Just keep the case you like.
Cut a thin (~1") strip of aluminum foil long enough to connect both metal side rails (~3").
Lay it across the back of your phone so that it covers the bottom volume button and touches each metal side rail.
Then put the case on.
As long as your finger can brush up against the foil when you try to unlock, it works every time.
They'll eventually roll out an update that will address this, so don't worry about "cases that work", they're probably lying anyway unless they have a metal strip built in.

Here is what I did http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64016697&postcount=12. It works fine for me just remember to smooth out the edges so they are completely flat else you have a chance of scratching the metal rails.

Yep, just make it work. When I put the strip in, I didn't even cut around the hole like in your pics. It actually turned out pretty clean, the aluminum forms itself to the bottom button and looks kind of like a silver half-moon. I could see where yours could work better from some angles, but I never have problems, and am lazy. You can see it on imgur if you paste in mqJXBDY after the slash.

I actually didn't cut that part out I used the excess and rolled it up to line the edge of the cutout so when I touch the FPS my finger would still be in contact with foil without covering up the button. Pretty much my cuts of foil are the red lines with the arrows showing where the pieces were rolled to line the edge.
That is pretty slick.

6P Chickenpox

So, been using my Spigen Rugged Armour case recently after my dbrand skins pealed away at the top.
Anyway, came to take the case off and noticed lots of silver spots!
It appears something has got inside the case and made tiny dents all over the back and side of the phone!
The pic isn't great, can take a better pic when I get home.
Just can't believe that I have been using a case to protect my phone only to have something attack it
I also noticed just one of those silver spots (not a dent, like the color just rubbed off) after using the Verus case. Graphite model as well.

Need's a vaccination!
I have a Verus case on my black 6p. When I put it on and off just a couple of times (to clean the dust from between the case and phone), the entire phone warped due to the pressure of taking the case off.
So I'm holding the bottom of the phone with my left hand, and popping out one of the top corners with my right hand. After I did this a few times, my phone wouldn't lay flat. Then I saw a crease near the volume rocker where the warp happened. I've never seen anything like this and I returned it the following day.
That's why I take of my case (to clean both the back and the case itself) every day after I take a shower.

I just had to re-read that after your comment. Yeeeeeeep. That's user error, sorry mate. I use the same case and no warping at all. I take it out a lot and switch between the flimsy one that Google sold with it. You always have to remove the frame first, then just kinda peel off the soft part. To state the obvious, you need to do that with every 2-piece case with every phone. If it simply popped out of the case with little to no effort, it wouldn't be very effective, would it?
I would probably be more upset about the spots if I didn't always have a case on it. I'm guessing since it's aluminum, the phone is anodized? That doesn't last forever. It does wear off after a while. I've used other products that were anodized (both aluminum and titanium) and the color never really held up after regular usage so I'm not too upset about it. For me it's a non issue. I don't sell my old phones, I still have my GNex and N5, so it's not like I'm upset it may impact the resale value or anything like that.
If you look into anodizing, it does wear off through normal use (jewelry is a big one) and is completely normal, so I'm not bent out of shape about it. It happens.

Ok, I'm intrigued. Please do report back.

Yeah I am debating on getting it. I've been through 4 glass screen protectors already though and I'm hesitant to spend more at this point. Right now I am running Illumishield maximum coverage aquashield with a commuter and its working out very well.
I ordered one and will be here tomorrow. My concern is how do you remove it if you want to replace it? That glue they use looks like Bondic. Bondic is a UV activated glue that hardens under the UV light and is incredibly strong. Before i apply it i need to find out what it is and if i can be easily removed if it breaks or gets all scratched up.

Very good point. Thanks for the info on the glue. According to the mfg, it can be removed., but the referenced scraping method would destroy the LCD glass.
"How can Bondic® be removed from smooth surfaces?
We recommend the use of scrapers. Giving the Bondic® a short, sharp shove from the side dislodges it cleanly from the base. Any remnants left behind can be easily removed with conventional cleaners."
They also mention using chemical agents. I've used acetone in the past to dislodge epoxy off my eyeglasses lenses, and it worked very well. It may be worth contacting them and ask more info.

When they mention scrapers, my assumption would be that they are referring to plastic tools/scrapers (think drywall spackle applicator). If this is the case, then you would need to be Hercules to damage Gorilla Glass with a plastic utensil.
If you have ever removed paint over spray from glass windows, then you'll understand my thinking. The paints sticks like glue, but one solid push in a single direction removes it fully with no residue.

After reading this, I may return mine when I get it tomorrow. Not sure I want to risk not being able to cleanly remove it. I usually keep my phones for about a year and then sell them and I don't want to not be able to easily remove this thing.

Just to clarify, I don't think that it's anywhere near this difficult. I was just responding to the post I quoted who was talking about damaging their screen because the company mentioned scrapers. The protector and all is residue is supposed to be able to be removed with nothing but force, and "household cleaners" if any residue remains.
Mine arrived today. Haven't opened it. Debating whether I want to apply it since my IQ Shield full body is already perfectly applied. May wait for more feedback or I might get really bored and just apply it.
