Hey everyone, I realize that there are a lot of threads about cases already and I'm sorry to start a new one, but I've looked through the forum and I don't think anyone has asked a question like this yet.
What I'm wondering is if anyone knows of a case that covers both the front and back completely? Like you can't even see the screen when he front part is on. But then the front part can slide off and then slide onto the back when you are using the phone. I wish I had some examples from other phones and I'll keep my eyes open if I see something, but if anyone has seen something like this any suggestions are welcome!
Also I realize that because of the shape of the bottom back of this phone a case like this might not even be possible, and if that is the case just delete this thread.
Thanks in advance you guys.
*Edit- This is exactly what I am looking for except that the front part wont slide onto the back.

I once saw a thread for a MDA cover, it actually goes on the fone, the pictures they had showed that it was white. goes on like skin i beleive it was made of silicon. and i saw it on here once and i want to buy it now but i cant find the thread for it. does anyone know where i can find it? or know of something similar that works good? thank you
I got mine at pda-den.
Thanks =)
i found it. thanks. but quick question the one on here has a clear screen. does it work good??
screen
It is a polycarb or plexiglass flip. It's fine, just prone to scratching like all the others.
Isn't there a version without the flip?

not that I know of.
I actually bought that MDA case and really had a tough time making it stay on (just the back part).
It appears that the back part is too small... I actually ended up breaking the little "anchor" that is supposed to clip on by the spacebar. For a while I tried to just tape it on, but ended up giving up... the case is just sitting in a drawer in my desk now...
overall, I was pretty displeased with the fit of the case...
Hello,
I just bought the vibrant; however, the bezel is slightly cracked. I wanted to replace it, but every dismembering video of the phone I checked removes the motherboard. Is there any way in which I can remove the bezel without messing with the motherboard, screen, or any other components around it?
Also, the battery cover is scratched. I wanted to buy the replacement cover but there is one available for the i9000 not the t959. I read that it will fit, but I just wanted to confirm it.
I apologize if I sound like a noob or posted this in the wrong section. I spent 3 hours searching for an answer, but found nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Please? Any help would be appreciated.
I don't think you really have an option. After looking at some screen repair guides for the Vibrant it appears the bezel has a panel that goes under the soft keys (see attached image). Also, I've never had my phone get damaged so I never have had to tinker with my physical device. What you could do is buy a case that covers the front bezel like the one I use. It's about 5$ and will hide your bezel + protect it. That's all I can suggest, hope this helps...
Also, not sure about the i9000 back cover working on the Vibrant but here is a brand new back cover you can buy for the vibrant for about 6$.
The only way to replace the bezel is to remove the motherboard. Also, I use i9000 covers for my vibrant. They work beautifully. (I have a chrome one one! ^.^)

Thanks for the help guys. All the electronics I have don't have a single scratch on them, literally, I baby them. I bought this from craigslist; however, I didn't see the scratch during that time. I am very irritated atm.................regardless, thanks for the help.
I was wondering, If I buy a bezel, would somebody be willing to replace it for me? Obviously, I will pay you for the job. If yes, I would greatly appreciate that. Please send me a private message if interested.
Did a few searches and I didn't see anyone mention this issue, so I may just have a slightly defective cover.
I got my free flip case and tec tiles in the mail today and the case snaps on just fine and looks great. But I noticed the camera and flash LED are recessed. The camera only a little and the LED a little more than the camera. I'm kind of concerned about dust and debri possibly making its way through any slight cracks that may be between the cover and LED. I'm not going to ask for a replacement since Samsung have this to me for free, but does anyone else have this issue?
Also, I could have sworn there was a thread sharing a notice that Samsung was giving these away if you register your device. Couldn't find that or else I'd post this question there.

Hey guys,
I got myself a View Cover for my Note 3.
Now I've got a problem:
When completely opening the cover, so that the front view is on the back of my phone, the phone goes into the "cover is closed-mode", i got that square view and can go to camera and action-memos...
But i just wanted to use my phone normally,
Is it just me with that problem or has anyone the same problems?
phone is in "cover is closed-mode" when it's actually closed
phone is in normal mode when cover is opened
phone is in "cover is closed-mode" when it's flipped back completely
Thanks in advance!

I've got the same problem. I stopped using the s-view case because of it.
Some people say there were some defective batches where this was an issue (magnet too strong?), and others say they don't have the issue at all.
If you have the option, try exchanging it for a different one and see if you get better results.
I had the same thing happen as well. I let the company know and they gave me a new case. Hasn't happened since.
Are you guys talking about genuine S-View covers?
Because I get that sometimes on my cover, but it is a cheap chinese knock-off, so I don't mind it at all - it rarely happens anyway.
But I wouldn't accept that on a genuine Samsung cover.
I've tried another cover, too but the problem remained. I aswell am using some chinese knockoff, although it says samsung... But yeah, can someone tell me if the original view-cover got that problems?
Thanks for your replies!

Genuine Samsung s-view cover doesn't have this issue
I've got a genuine cover and I don't have this problem at all.
If its a knock off, good chance the magnet in the front of the case is too strong. I've noticed if I put a magnet up to the bottom left of the phone, this will trick it into thinking the cover is closed. Similarly if its done from the back of the phone, if the magnet is too strong it will trigger the same. not sure if theres something you can place in the back cover of the case to shield it?

First, thanks for your reply!
I will check if I can protect the back somehow.
But anyways, I am thinking of buying another view-cover because my phone won't recognize mine from time to time... Have to reattach it to get it back working.
I'm looking for a replacement back cover. I don't want to go with a case, it only just fits in my pocket, and IDK that I have a whole lot of mms to play with.
My problem is, my wife and I each got one, and they are both black. I almost walked out of the house with both the other day because I wasn't paying attention. If I could do something to differentiate the look a little, that would help greatly. I got stickerboy decals or stickers or whatever you call them, but I can't quite get it to line up (disclaimer: This is almost assuredly my problem, not anything wrong with stickerboy).
Any ideas on a replacement cover or one coming soon on the horizon?

Wonder what the chances are if anyone would make an actual "metal" back cover..
I've seen these for the s4

or at least a soft plastic or wood or other colors...
same here!
I hate the cheap feel of the back cover so I was thinking of a skin but I would prefer a simple backcover replacement... I love the wood option on the OnePlus One... I'm still waiting for someone to make this for the G3
I just brought this phone and was looking for a Matt battery cover as i don't want a case too. use to and love the feel of my nexus 5 backing. anyone seen anything like this around?
edit: found this but is another layer. looks good though
