How do you have your Note set up? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Hey all, I figured I would start this idea for a thread that we keep going, even though I don't have my Note yet.
Basically, let's make this thread a place to show off how you have your note set up. Post pictures of the cases you use, either with your note in it, or just the case if your Note is your only camera. Also, post screenshots of your homescreens, app drawer, etc. as you set up your own specific themes and whatnot.
When I get my Note, I will be using the following setup:
Case: Sena Ultraslim, White. $29.99 http://www.senacases.com/samsung-cases/galaxy-note/ultraslim/#

I will update mine with screenshots once I have my note.

I have a screen protector and black speck case(little bulky). Use a Bluetooth earpiece (jabra something...$80 or so) and looking at this right now...
Wp clock widget...power widget...ics search bar...scrollable news widget...
And rooted on stock kernel. Afraid to over clock right now. Gonna wait until we have solid cwm and when collective arrives I will most likely flash away...but I will prob rock current setup until then or until official ICS. I hope that its soon but not holding my breath.

Request: Background Image (Might be hard to get).

I've searched everywhere on this forum and others but I haven't found anything close to what I'm looking for so I'm hoping some one will be able to help me out with this one.
The image I'm looking for is the background for the Night Time weather lock screen on the 3.0 Sense. Just in case I worded that wrong when I first hit the power button at night the lock screen loads with the moon, time, date, (Current) ect. There is a dark image in the background after the animation clouds clear with a grid pattern from the bottom of the page to the middle and a distant starry night sky from the middle up through the time.
Even if it's that image with the moon I don't care the moon is a clean image either way I am going crazy looking for it, I figured it would be an easy find considering but apparently not.
I still haven't found it yet, if anyone can help me out it would mean a lot.

Wisefinger - Reviews for use with the Note

Has anyone used the Wisefinger product and can share a review? I think this would work well with a shiny case like the SGP ultra or Speck. It can also do double duty as a stand. I was just wondering if anyone has tried this combo with the Note.

someone posted about this on another thread here today. still looks like a interesting idea. i don't want something extra hanging off the rear-end of my Note to add thickness to it. just makes it that much harder to put into my pocket.
That has to be a joke right? Reminds me of one of those products you'd see in a commercial for terrible inventions

I have one and its extremely akward and uncomfortable to use with the note. The swivel feature of the wise finger its too loose and i find that when reaching over to the other side of the phone one handed, the phone rotates 45 degrees and i have to correct it with the other hand. Ive tried placing it in multiple areas on the back of the phone and i have this problem all the time
It does work as a kickstand though. However, the added bulk and lack of functionality does.not justify every day use

Checkered TPU case off Ebay.

Got this in the mail yesterday, wasn't sure if I would of liked the checkered pattern but I really do now that I have it. It fits very snug and love the raised Bezel around the screen so I can lay it face down.

Thanks for the link. US seller with free shipping. Nice! Fair prices, too.
I am glad you found that.
I had that same one for my Samsung Infuse and I used it for months! It was my favorite case. Durable, protects, slippery enough but still grippable, thin and looks good.
Im getting one.

Yea I've liked it a lot and even got a couple people ask me about it last night.
I also really like how the power button has a cut out and the volume buttons are covered, I.always seem to turn the screen on and push the volume at the same time when putting it into my pocket, but not a.problem anymore.
they make a more silver.looking one as well I saw but I like.the darker one

Verizon Shell Holster Case

Their case, at least on my phone, squeezes the screen and creates a small blueish blemish. This blemish is hard to see and it's best to look for it on a white background. Pressing on that spot makes the blob larger. This goes away when you remove the case.
Just wanted to let you guys know about that so you can try out the case before leaving the store. I'm currently sitting on it hoping to stretch it out a bit. Is anyone else having this same issue?
No issues for me. Where on the screen is it showing up on yours?

Mine is about 2 inches above the home key and is about the size of an eraser head.
Were you able to get rid of it?

No. I went back to the store and tried a different case but it still did the same thing. Ended up just returning it. Perhaps it's phones rather than the case?

Might be something about the phone that the case affects. I was able to get the blemish to fade by carefully squeezing the opposite corners of the phone towards each other. Basically, I "massaged" blemish out. Haven't seen it since...

Yep I did the same. Well ...i preordered this time before seeing the phone in person, but it's a Note 8 I had no doubts

Thanks for posting pics of the Orchid Grey Note 8. I blindly ordered it and read somewhere that it was purple'ish and started to freak out [emoji23]. Looks fantastic and I'll be glad to have something other than a black slab for once. Finding it in the car floor while driving at night is a nightmare haha.

It's because most activities require scrolling down or upwards, a taller screen would mean more viewing and less scrolling. At least this is what they said on the live release event.
Personally I think it looks great too now they have moved onto software keys instead
