This isn't really anything to write home about, more of a way to show people how to rid yourself of the nagging charger port cover without a huge recessed gap being present afterward. Use as small and precise a tool as you can perhaps an exacto knife. I used haircutting scissors which was not appropriate for precision. I wanted to get the hole exactly the size of the port but the top and bottom were much too thin. I could only get both sides in tact. The right side is super glued and the left is attached still. I couldve done it better but to me it beats removing the entire cover and having a recessed gap the looks unnatural and unsightly.

Hi,
Has anyone seen any slip cases for the Hero out and about? A slip case, at least as defined by me, is a case with no latches, buttons, lids etc. Just "slip" the phone in and out.
The case I would prefer buying is something along the line of the cases for the Nokia E* series, and the Palm Pre (image below) slip case [1]. Those cases are "stiffened" leather cases with one side fully or partially exposed. I realize the chin of the Hero could be troublesome, but I think you could design around that.

I'm wondering it anyone knows anything about what appears to be two little buttons on the back of the Galaxy Alpha, after you take the battery cover off. They are to the left of the battery, and are marked "L" and "R." Are these buttons at all, and if so, what do they do? Thanks.
Its not buttons. Under that plugs are some connectors (from ifixit):

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I took a look at a SM-G850A (no little covers over the "buttons" and figured they were connectors. NOW, what are the connectors for?
So I bought a new screen protector for my phone today, but upon opening the package I noticed that it doesn't even cover the whole screen (leaves approx. 2mm on both sides unprotected). So stay away from this piece of crap! It was also pretty expensive at 14,90€. I have already contacted both the reseller and manufacturer to notify them about the problem, and hopefully they will sort it out. Attached a picture below.

The kicked to this is if you use one that does cover the screen (Zagg) It does not sit on the screen on the edges where yours does not go. The screen is curved quite a bit and it is enough that you will probably have to use one of the plastic guards if you use one instead of glass unfortunately.
I like the Word case the most. Lots of grip and makes the phone more comfortable to hold when gaming
MOD EDIT: LINK REMOVED
Personally I hate the word case, complete waste of money in terms of protection. This is what happened when my phone fell out of my pocket with the case on. Big dent leading to a crack along the antenna line to the front speaker grill and damage on the grill too.

Also the case came off too when it hit the ground and the tempered glass shattered. Would not recommend.
Hi everyone, I own a Mi Pad 5 pro with the official keyboard. But... I like to use it with a more hard cover, that also has the holes for the keyboard, but of course, they don't touch in any way... Then, I was wondering, that maybe "already exist" (as the cover has the holes for the keyboard) some way to connect them, some kind of cable that connect them, or another way ?
Any ideas ?

Trim the 3 silicone holes and make it one big hole. Use a sharp boxcutter razor.
That should help a lot.
