Have orderd MoKo case , Got it yesterday. The question is , Is ther any apps to work with these cases to switch of the screen when we close the flap and switch it on when we open the flap.
I tried Cover Gini / Cover Senor / KillSwitch , But none of them work with TP.
Are there any other method we can try ?

Has to be a cover with a magnet in it.
Get the moko case from amazon, i love it and it has the screen off functionality with the magnets, plus its only $20

I bought this one (haven't received it yet though)
http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00CHQWMC4/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I picked it because the bottom easily slides off, so I can still put it in the charging dock.
It also has the magnet for turning the screen on/off
HEY guys i just bought a g note 3 yesterday along with the official s-view cover.
The cover functions in the way as described, but when i fold the cover full towards the back for example i fold it when i text the phones goes in to the s-view mode (like when the cover is closed) note: the cover is still open and folded towards the back of the device.
I would like to know whether this problem is caused by the cover or the phones connectivity with the cover?
Thanks for your help in advance

I used to have a similar problem when I used that case. Instead of going into S-view mode like yours does, mine would do the opposite. When I closed the cover it would show my Home screen through the cover. It sorted itself out eventually. Not sure what causes this though. Sorry I can't really be of any help other than just wait it out, it will probably start working correctly eventually. Your not the only one who has had this kind of issue though.
You should send your cover back under warranty. It is a problem with a magnet on the bottom side of the flip, which in your case is probably too strong.
Don't hesitate, This is a known manufacture problem of a few exemplars, and does not happen in working ones.

My s view cover doens't stay shut in most cases. I close it and it opens again - in particular once I opened it completely. Is this normal or are the magnets not strong enough and I should have it exchanged?

Mine does this, too. Not exactly what I expected for that price. But it always closed enough so that s-view was active.

Their are no magnets to keep the case closed. The magnets are there to tell the phone when to enter/exit S-View mode. Case is a good idea, but with it not closing all the way, I took mine back. Waiting on the Spigen S-View case which has a clasp to keep the cover closed. Was just announced and has a shipment date of around the 1st of the year.
Hi all,
I bought the smart window case for my z3 an at first it worked perfectly but now the window function has stopped working, when I press the on on button the screen displays the normal lockscreen instead of the square one that fits the window. At first I thought it was that it wasn't picking up the case however when i open the screen turns on like it's supposed to so I assume that the nfc chip in the phone and case are working; and to be sure I tested the chip in the phone using an app and got the all clear. I think the problem I have accidentally installed the app for the window-less case, which would explain why everything works except the window feature.
I figure the best thing to do is to uninstall the window-less case app and reinstall the correct, windowed one but I cant find it in the list. Does anyone know specifically what the name is for the case app/s?
Thanks,
Lachlan
Re-register the cover via NFC
The NFC chip in the cover and the chip in the phone does not align when the cover is mounted.
You need to remove the cover and reregister the cover to the phone, by aligning the NFC logo on the cover with the NFC cover on the back of your Z3.
Worked for me with the SCR24 cover.

While waiting for the keyboard cover (I got it "free" for buying the tablet at launch) I ordered this and received it today.
A little on the heavy side (I think around 250gr), protects the tablet and screen. Sturdy fold system for having the tablet stand up horizontally (for movie watching, I guess), no way that I can understand to have the tablet slightly raised for typing on touchscreen when not using the "real" keyboard. Screen cover turns on the device but with fingerprint id unlocking is kind of useless quite frankly. There's a magnet to ensure the cover stays closed.
Look is understated, with a "bas relief" Huawei logo in the bottom right corner. You can see pictures here:

How slim would you say this is? I currently have an aging Sony Z3 Compact tablet and have ordered the M5 as replacement.
When I first purchased the Z3C tablet I found all the 3rd party covers to be a bit on the bulky side. But when I finally got hold of the original Sony SCR28 cover - it was considerably slimmer than the 3rd party ones.
So, I am wondering if I should just get a cheap 3rd party cover from Amazon or hold out for the official Huawei one....
Flip cover
What do you think about this flip cover? http://s.aliexpress.com/UJ3YbIzE?fromSns
I think it's well done because it leaves the pogo pins uncovered so if you have to connect the tablet to the keyboard you do not have to detach it from the flip cover
gorman42,
Are you using flipcover with a stock room?
I found turnoff/turn on feature does not work with custom rom and interested to know other people experience.
I installed carbon rom.
Also do you have any reaction when you flip cover from front to back ?
I found magnet sensor reacts on that and triggers false positive
Maybe this can help you?
I was looking around for a smart case as i get so annoyed having to manually turn the phone on and off. Always remember one of my Samsung's having this by default.
I purchased a standard flip cover case from amazon, then slid under the top part of the cover a 6 x 1 mm disc magnet, south 0.33kg pull reversed.
Now whenever i open and close my case the phone turns on and off automatically.
Just make sure smart case is enabled in the settings. And enable unlock lock sounds, then you can hear it locking when you close.
