[Q] clicking battery door - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Even after all the snaps are in the battery door click at the top on both corners. Should I return it or does yours do it aswell?

I and others have had the same problem. I went to a store and swapped my back with one of the phones in stock. See this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1502478

I dropped my TD2

Hi,
Unfortunately today I dropped my Td2 to the city streets! My my has broken!
The two corners on the top damaged and metal place under the buttons. But the touch screen not!!!
Has anyone information where can I buy frame for Td2 in the internet? I couldn't reach the service in Hungary.
Sorry to hear about your bad luck. If all else fails just thought I would mention I have seen a faulty one in the Marketplace in case of any use.
Hope you get sorted.
Look at this!!

Who knows what the silver color frame is made of.
It seems to be some kind of metal "cap" on a plastic frame.
But what metal ?
What do you think/know about it ?

Sorry to hear about your crashed device :-(
May be you can tell us now what material the silver frame is really made of.
Metal or only sprayed plastic ?
Under the 4 buttons is metal but the corners on the top are plastic.
Look this pic:

Finally I chose the official service because warranty. The price will be 75 eur.
That sucks that you dropped the phone. I have dropped mine twice at home on Hardwood floors and once in the street. The one in the stree was a ig one. Luckily the only damage is to the top left corner. It has a tiny indent. Doesn't bother me much.
Its made of plastic with matal framing in it.

Hi
Get a lanyard, then before you start doing anything slip the lanyard over your wrist and you can't drop it.

I'm not sure from the pictures but can anyone tell me if the front frame comes with the (touch) screen already in place or do we have to glue it or whatever ourselves?
Oh! Almost forgot....... I dropped my TD2 and the front frame is a bit damaged in all corners!
Has anyone bought one of these housings and found it to be complete (not missing the camera metal cover) from ebay?
I have been bitten once and am twice shy now.
Also trying to find concise disassembly instructions.

I have had mine for a week and dropped it today. I know you pain. Mine is working but got 1cm scratch on screen and a few dents on the corners. The scratch is annoying. I have insurance but I think I will wait until next disaster. This does not help you but atleast your not the only phone dropper

Anyone have this black eforcity case?

http://www.eforcity.com/psamglxtlc06.html
I was wondering for anyone that have the black version of this case, does the flaps have magnets in them? It's listed for the other colors but not for the black. I found this kind of strange so I emailed them and it seems like they take forever to respond. So if anyone have this case, could you please comment? Thank you.
P.S. I'll also take recommendations for similar cases.

I don;t have this case, but many similar cases have magnetic closures. Why do you care?
A colleague of mine has the iPad version of this case, it's not bad for $10. I just ordered the Tab 2 7" version - I'll post my thoughts once received...

This has to be the dumbest question ever "Why do you care?". The guy is obviously asking so that he can make a smart purchase than going in blind and come to find out its not what he wanted and then having to return the item back. If you don't have any helpful advise to give why even comment? The nerve of some people!

The case for my GTab 2 7" arrived yesterday. I'm used to rockin the tab "naked" but I'm liking the case. Nice and thin, magnets keep it closed nicely, all ports/buttons are available (including IR). Two little things... 1) It has a little loop for a pen or stylus which is annoying, I'll cut it off, and 2) the case doesn't lie perfectly flat against the tab in the area of the Samsung logo on the font of the tab, directly underneath the home/back buttons. A little annoying because when attempting to hit one of the buttons you first contact the case which is sticking up a bit.

Im a jerk? Come on man, think about your answer. If anything you came off being rude. You cant assume that all of these case with flaps have magnets as i have seen some with velcro and why tell the dude why does he care when he's asking for a reason. SMDH....
It took them days to reply but they finally gave me an answer. They say that it doesnt come with magnets so i bought a similar one but there's no cutout for the charging port(but in their pictures it did). Oh well and thank you for all the responses, much appreciated.
P.S. I care if they have magnets or not because it's more secure when my tablet drops than having the front part flap around on it's way down.

Where exactly, underneath the little flaps that are sticking up, or between the back of the tablet and the case?

I took a picture of it for you not sure if that helps. The white you see by my finger is the paper i push into that spot. I believe it's the little flaps your talking about.
Just to add, or help someone else, I have this case. I like it for the price, and it leaves the face open.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Slim-...es_Covers_Keyboard_Folios&hash=item2a25d206a5
It leaves all the ports and camera unobstructed. It's good for watching, but it is not "locked" into position, so tapping too hard on the screen will cause it to collapse flat. Only drawback.

Be glad you avoided the Sammy case, nothing but issues with the magnets turning the note off when the cover is folded back over.

ordered today, paid $3.99 for 1 day shipping to get it tomorrow. premier member here.
thanks!
Just received mine a few mins ago. Definitely like this alot more than the official Sammy cover. Not too heavy or thick and the magnetic auto on/off works without issue. I was concerned that the size of the tablet may not work well with the folded positions in landscape or portrait, but i am happy to report they are very stable in either position. I will have pix up shortly. At half the price of the official Sammy case it is worth every half penny...
Update-wanted to add i have no issue with the magnets when the cover is folded back..does not turn off or on..

OK got ya... yep i can see that happening with this case. i will test it this evening and report back.
Edit- after checking you really need to purposely squeeze it for it to work. I also this with a screen protector around the button it will even less likely hit it. The mime glass one i have on order should be enough.
Here is a pretty cool slim case option. http://www.casefanatic.com/samsung-...over-baseus-galaxy-note-pro-12-2-smart-cover/
I have the blue one at home now, unfortunately the mailman came late today. So will not be able to test it out much till 2 am!
The case has a nice rubber felling to it, i thought it would be more of a leather feel. This rubber feeling, i like more than the leather. All ports are easily accessed adn the secondary mic is open as well. It feels sturdy in each standing position, does not feel like it will fall to easily. did not expect the sides to be so open though. I baby my tablet, so not an issue for me. Over all, very happy with this case and would buy more from them

mine is going back unfortunately, i hate the flap keeps on opening when holding due to those ridges. and big issue is the home button keep getting pressed. i have to disable S Voice, that's the only solution. its heavy and needs some improvement.
i bought the slimline and will receive it tomorrow.

Please let us know how you compare the Poetic to the RooCase. About to buy a Note Pro and want something very slender but quality feeling.
What do you mean when you said the flap keeps opening because of the ridges?

S7 backplate template

Hello, I've got a question. Does anybody have got (or know where to find it) a template of the back panel of the phone? I've got a sheet of 3M foil and I'd like to cut out a protective sticker from it, but I need a template in 1:1 scale. Maybe someone have got something like this?
You may try searching on korean google.co.kr or ask from this YouTube channel JerryRigEverything
Not sure but I hope you will find that.

Slide system and bumpers

Does anyone know how the sliding system will cope with the protection covers and tpu bumpers?
Just got my mix 3, China version. Looks like the cases and bumpers could fit snugly around the top and both sides. On the bottom the front facing third is sorta notched so the face can slide down. At least that's what it looks like to me...
See case bump out on my mi mix 3
<just noticed the original upload failed...reupping photos of included case. You will notice the case does not cover the bottom completly, just enough for the slider to move.>

The bottom part is actually part of a larger piece of plastic that surrounds the entire phone, top and bottom. This piece slides within the bottom case.
There are even more variants available:
