Safe Website? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I found a good site that has low prices on i9000 cases (which also fit the i777) and free shipping. Has anyone else ordered from here/ confirm its legitimate? http://www.savingelectronics.com/

i9100 cases do not fit i777 correctly.

The top mic hole is a little different then the i777. So you would have to cut out a hole. Also there will be an extra hole for strap hole on the i9100, which the i777 does not have.
If you want similiar cases, buy them from eBay because there is a good variety and its very cheap.

[Q] Remove Samsung logo on top front cover

A slightly bizarre question here, but has anyone tried to cleanly remove the silver Samsung logo on the top of the front cover on the i9100?

It's under the glass so if they've replaced the front bezel.
Would love that as well

It would indeed clean it up just that last touch, but you propably need to replace the cover

I know it doesn't answer your question but I wouldn't ever do something like that. I paid a premium price for a premium product and I want the whole ******* world to know what brand of phone I have!
there's a logo on the back, isn't there?
i'd also love to know. it would make the phone look so much sleeker (the front, anyways)

Yeah, you are right! I might buy an Nexus S instead ;P
Best to check out ifixit. They have articles about how easy it is to repair or replace parts on various 'phone. The Nexus S and Galaxy i9000 are there. It'll only be a while afore the i9100 follows.
For example, here is the Nexus S:
http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus-S-Teardown/4365/1
There is no reason to think that the teardown for the i9100 would not be as good. With this information, one could well remove the front window pane and see how easy it is to alter the Samsung logo.
Black insulating tape? :-D

This might help. covers the full front and its a good quality cover from SGP. ordering mine soon...
Turns out i still don't have enough posts to post outside links . neway, search up "Galaxy S2 SGP Glass". u will find what I'm talking about.

They will make more colors but I'm waiting for the kraken ams case in the following weeks for total protection

Hey guys - quick tip when ordering from Tridents site - use coupon code " holiday2011 " to bring the price to $22.46 USD shipped (standard). thanks to retailmenot.com for that extra $7.50 in my pocket .

Yes they did go on there facebook page and it will be there by more than just me and even leave a comment yourself asking anything you want and they respond fast. They said they will make the ageis case and a Kraken A.M.S case but that will be out in another week or two. I also asked for other colors like trident green and look there is that color and others after the first day. I think the A.M.S version will be great and i cant wait.
Ok, just received it
It feels really sturdy. and its is raised so the face glass is off the flat surface
it also cover the sliver edges of the amaze
headphone and charge port are covered
Also to note, its a bit thicker, just a notch wider and longer the both incipio and d3o
buttons are soft to press and are marked
I rank it up there with d3o in regards to protection on drop impact
moreover, it also offers dust cover protection, and provides a lift wen device is face down on flat surface

I hear conflicting things about the three holes. How do we know exactly what the purpose of the holes are (antennae /noise cancellation)? How critical is it that they stay uncovered?

There has been some talk of poor reception when using a case. I did not notice this with the case I bought, but it has the holes around the camera.

Look like way better coverage than the other two cases. Does trident still give the head phones extender jack with the case?

anyone know where i can get?

a Samsung Galaxy Note SGH-I717 Battery Door - Replacement white
i can't find one anywhere on the web. if you know a site please let me know thanks.
You could always just buy an official SAMSUNG folio case and cut off the leather flap. The replacement backs that come on these are thicker and stronger anyways.... Just a thought.

There are a few problems with that.
1) international note tabs are larger and therefore will require modification to work
2) no NFC. Sure, it's disabled now, but soon it will be available for use.
3) Does not look the same. It says Samsung, not Galaxy Note. That's more personal preference.

So I'm not sure if this has already been asked but do all cases fit all the variants of the S3? I'm not sure if that made sense...but yeah.

It's the exact same body, so yes, any case you buy, whether it's for the International version or the American or Korean version, it will fit.

What about screen protectors? The ones I got don't really stick around the edges because it kind of curves.
Anyone find any good ones?

Dry/static cling protectors don't work on the curve, only wet application protectors can follow the curve, and therefore cover the whole screen.

why the lack of high end cases?

Why has otter box, balistic and Trident decided to ignore the E970? I mean hell the Atrix HD at least got an otter box. I figured when I got this phone that I could get an otter box for it since it was glass on both sides. But good lord this is horrible. I'm using a snap around plastic case that came with my order thats better than nothing, but still... Do we need to start a petition or somting?

Carrier specific versions tend to get fewer accessories, this phone has different dimensions from international ver.

There's plenty of flip cases on eBay, but it's too bulky to carry around. Also hard to hold when talking on the phone

I couldn't find a Slim flip case fo OG like the ones available for S3/S4 and note.
However I had seen something resemling a case similiar to that.
BTW , the cases generally available and the ones which I was talking about were the poetic flip cases , which add a lot of bulk , or as it appears from the pics. But it feels like this will protect it from serious damage.
Some of the goo cases I found :
1. Expensive one . : http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-Optimus-...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item3a89128e21
Here is the one I was willing to order at the end of this month. ; -

The second link actually looks good, ill probably get a white one.
The iMak cases are... Very foreign. And your phone attaches to it with adhesive instead of any clips. I used one for awhile and the case started breaking apart after a few months.

It is pretty frustrating. I had a Star Wars case for my Nexus 4 before I broke the phone and I'm missing it a lot.
