Not trying to be that guy, but from the pic you provided the phone is using wifi but its roaming so do you actually own this case and is that roaming from the case? Every aluminum case I have seen posted here or any other phone accessory section on XDA has signal loss.
It looks nice but there's no way it doesn't degrade the signal strength.
Don't bother. I bought one of these from ebay a couple weeks ago and it degrades your signal by 1-2 bars. It was night and day.. the minute you took it off your signal went up.
I also used this case for two days and it went to trash due to horrible grip(very uncomfortable grip) and side bumper being not tight enough.
It does look cool though..

Reason is becouse im using Mycall and www.mycall.no is using Telenor as nationally roaming partner. As there is better coverage with Telenor then the phone shows R. Mycall does not have as many sites as telenor so im connected to telenor instead.
This is mine case yes lol, check my other threads about tempered glass screen GLASs-M.
I agree with you guys it does look good, but its slippery and can easy fall out of my hands. Thats the online down I can find of this
Proof screenshot
Im in Oslo,Norway.
I think it will create the signal problem......I want to buy a metal case for my N3 but the only reason I decided not to buy them is the signal problem...Is there anyone who can suggest a metal case for N3 which does not create this issue.....
I have this case. It looks great, except it makes the phone look thicker, like the neohyrid - which I don't like.
As for signal, it's fine in areas with good signal, but in areas with poor signal like my office it sucks - which is why I switched back to my Diztronic case. Not as pretty but does the job.

These are in TMO stores?
I'd like to know too!
available on tmo website as well
24.99
I see its available for Samsung. HTC says coming soon?
Edit: You are right. Its available
yes they are at tmobile stores they expect more cases in the upcoming weeks
Do you have more pics ? Nobody shows it from the back .
I found this while doing some googling. Multiple different AMAZE 4G cases with D30 technology.

UPDATE: Seems like you have to be a member and sign up :/
Just got it. Here are some shots
Thanks for the pics! Does it cover up the edges of the screen completely, so if you late it flat on its face that the glass is not touching the desk surface? Also, is the material the rubbery stuff that attracts lint like crazy and makes it tough to take out of your pocket? I am used to a TPU case that is pretty slick.

When laid on the surface, the raise is slight, but its there. The case is hard rubber. Feels durable.
i just picked one up at my local tmo store.. went last week and they only had a green/teal color... went today to pick up a black one .. seems durable-- hope it is!
so whats the difference between the D3O Protective Cover ($25), the D3O Band ($30), and the D3O Dual Impact case ($35)? I'm looking for the highest level of protection for my Amaze.
The dual is the highest level of protection.. It's basically a 3Do case with a hard plastic case over part of it. If you don't know what 3Do is wiki has some info on it. I read it last night..

Hey guys
I have ordered a Ballistic phone case for my Galaxy S II. At first I was like this case is gonna suck. I work as a bouncer in a night club on the weekends and needed something that was gonna work and they were all out of the otterbox at the store I went too.
All I have to say is the case is amazing. After dropping it a few times and getting roughed up at the club the phone has survived without a scratch. I would recommend this case if you wanna check something out if otterbox is out of stock.

Sorry if my message is a lil strange I am on some major meds from being sick.

I got a red and black one for my work phone. Don't really care about ugly but wanted to protect it. One thing I've been looking for is a case with a lanyard attachment of some kind. I ended up using a hot needle to poke all the way through both the red and black and fished regular lanyard type nylon through, attached that to a small clip that is between the phone and black. Voila!
Sure I may look like a dork with this hanging from my neck but I haven't lost, dropped or forgot my phone yet since.
Got mine yesterday and I love it. I often don't remember to pull it out of my cargo pocket before putting on my bunker gear. While I'm not worried about it getting wet because of the gear, I thought the phone looked quite a bit flimsy. Now, I don't worry about it. The screen stays next to my hip, and the shell protects the phone from flex.

Care to post some pics please?
Got mine in Black. I Love this case! Great protection (as good as otterbox)
The thing I like the most is the feel it gives the phone in my hand. Without the case, the phone feels too small and fragile.
Looks intense. I'm sure that's just as effective as any otterbox lol.
Is it bulky like the otter cases? That my biggest issue but the protection is what really matters..

Had an otterbox on my captivate, the defender series, have the ballistic on my sg2. The protection is, if anything, better than the otterbox, but it is nearly as bulky.

I had one of these (both models) for my infuse. It's actually a funny story. On my drive from San Diego to Montgomery we (my wife and I) stopped in Lubbock, TX. We (meaning she) decided new phones were necessary. I found 2 brand new in box infuses on craigslist and bought them (it was quite a feat to get to town late at night, find a hotel, get internet, get on craigslist, find 2 of the same phone, go buy them, go buy dinner, sleep for a couple hours, get back up, and drive to Alabama). Anyways, both were brand new and came with a ballistic case.
Yeah yeah, off topic but I had to tell somebody.
On topic, I like the ballistic case. It sure provides good protection. I'd like to try the trident aegis sometime though.
I just got one 2 weeks ago and it's a great fit, got the black/red.

I received one of these cases when I purchased my Galaxy S II about three weeks ago, and thought I'd do a quick review.
The case is definitely bulkier than the phone. I've found that to be a good thing overall, as it makes it easier to grip and makes the whole thing feel more solid.
The rubber is definitely high-quality. I've dropped my phone a couple of times, and it's been as happy as a lark. No complaints there. The corners are rounded outward and act as bumpers.
In addition, I used the rubber as a spot to grip the phone with my teeth when my hands were full trying to unlock my door earlier.
The holes for the camera, headphones etc are plenty large.
The button covers for the power/lock and volume buttons extend out quite a bit, which makes them easy to find and use. I haven't had too much of a problem with accidentally bumping them, even in my pocket where I routinely turn on any flashlight I happen to be carrying.
I have the Ballistic case and the otterbox commuter case, I find the commuter case to be the better one, looks much better, feels better in the hand, and looks like it should provide enough protection for my phone
Best case out there for I777, although a bit to big lol it's great protection for our phones.

I had almost the exact case for my N2 that I paid $60 for because it was also all aluminum but I didn't notice any signal loss nor did I drop calls so you should be good!
That's is an awesome looking case. Looks similar to the neo hybrid by spigen but with a real metal bumper. Love it. Here's the link .

I love the look, but I had this for my Note2 and it killed my LTE. No more metal cases for this guy.
The look is amazing, but a thread a few weeks back about it said there was a bar or two signal loss. Such a shame because it's such a beautiful case.

nice looking case, its missing a hole for the small s-life sensor (like the now fixed UAG)
It would be nice if the added a kick stand to it.
Had the kxx aluminum case w which was very similar. My LTE speed for reduced to half and honestly although the case looks cool and all, it made the phone heavy and slightly difficult to hold. I'm back to my slim armor
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
It looks nice but will attenuate the signal!
Also if you drop the phone, even from a modest height the aluminum will ding and look nasty. $60 is a lot to spend only to wind up getting it messed up and realizing you're killing your signal (which will reduce battery life) and it winds up sitting in a drawer...
I bought a carbon fiber back from eBay. Blocks my phone signal wifi signal and GPS signal like crazy. I thought only metal back will block phone signals, this is new to me. Has anybody had similar experience? It's a pity because I really like this back. The carbon fiber surface makes the phone much easier to grab.

me too. i bought the one with faux leather texture and same thing. i think there is just one manufacturer making these, but with many different styles. as soon as i apply, signals go to zero.
The metal backs do the same thing.
I was thinking about buying a slim metal case for my Mega 6.3 tomorrow. Guess I'll stick with a plastic and rubber case.
yeah same here.
Got this case off of EBay delivered for $32. It's called a PEPKOO ULTIMATE. I think Love Me and possibly another company makes some almost identical. They are aluminum with Gorilla glass screen protector, screws together instead of snaps like an Otterbox and doesn't get all the dirt and trash around the sides of the screen. I've been using mine for a month now and thought I would share my review of it. It's tough, cool looking and I have no complaints. Don't forget it was $32.
uhm, good!
From the reviews I have seen, the S-Pen is Damn near impossible to take out, and the sound is horribly muffled.

You could have gotten it cheaper too on Ebay. It's the same case as the Love MEI series. Those are $23 on ebay.
Also your cell reception just took a dive by half because of the aluminum. I only use mine when I go snowboarding. The extra weight adds to my balance, lol.
I saw after I ordered it about the s-pen complaints and I don't have any trouble. I'm always somewhere the signal is great so that hadn't been an issue. I would have loved the even cheaper priced one but compared to an otterbox, This case is king. I've had an otterbox for every phone I've had in the last 6 years, starting with a blackberry and had to constantly take it apart and clean dirt and dust out of it. I never have to do that with this one. I stand firm and recommend this case or an identical copy over otterbox any day. If I paid $ 40 I would still be satisfied.

Yeah I definitely recommend it to anyone who can put up with those things. I like the comments I get when I whip it out(no pun intended). People always ask in amazement if it's a phone and what phone it is. Then again I have the original model so it's even bigger than the new slimmer ones which I might get soon.

I just have a question, where exactly did you see this for so cheap? The only link I can find on Amazon is for $69:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00HFMUVG4/ref=dp_olp_new_mbc?ie=UTF8&condition=new
I got it off of eBay. I work in the oilfields of West Texas and we have some rough weather, especially dust storms. With the otterbox I was having to take it apart every couple of days to clean the dirt and dust that would make its way inside it. Then the abrasive dust rubbing against the plastic screen protector would have it scratched up in a mater of a month or so. I haven't had to take this case apart yet to clean it and that dust isn't going to hurt the Gorilla glass. I put a couple screen shots of the add on eBay so you could see the seller and the product.
It's awesome

Nice yeah like It .
I'm sure it's a great case if your going to throw it down a mountain, but in my opinion it's way too bulky.
Bulk
If bulk is an issue, then I would suggest an Iphone, I think they still small enough to fit in a matchbox. But all jokes aside, it still easily fits in my back pocket and as I stated before, I need my phone protected from the elements. I never said this case would suit everyone but if you wanted a case that was built for hard core protection, I recommend this one. I have now had it for two months and I hope I can always get one to fit future phones.
How heavy is this? Do you have issues with sound? Have you waterproof tesed the case and how did it do?
Same here,
If a case makes my devices useless, well then it's useless. I can see the draw to a waterproof solution as I hit the lake often during the summer months and don't do much out there other than check things on the screen from time to time. But for that there are cheaper solutions, none of which I trust completely anyhow.
Lets hope that they up the IP rating on the note 4.

LoL this in is not the waterproof version. Its the water resistant version. Love Mei adds some water proofing in there. There is a difference this one, Lunatak's and Love Mei's. I think they all have the same base manufacture. My Dad has the Lunatak's case for the iphone, his signal doesnt take a hit, also it makes the phone feel like a brick. AND I really mean a brick.
You guys want real waterproof head over to the red pepper note 3 thread.

I had purchased a similar metal case for my Note 3 from Love Mei. It looks cool but I dont like it.
1. I made my phone to look big, almost the size of Tab 7.0.
2. Its non ergonomic for long time use, you'll not be comfortable holding it while text messaging.
3. Not to forget that it adds weight extreme weight to your phone. Trust me, you can't answer calls for more than 20 minutes due to its weight.
4. Since its a water proof version, the sound ports and receiver speakers are covered with thin membrane of some material (sort of rubber or plastic). Thats make the sound to be scatered and unclear
5. The glass protector will have the rainbow effect on screen when it touches the phone screen.
These points are based from my experience. I sold my case to another guy.
Currently Im with Trident Kraken AMS, and I love it to the max. It saved my phone without single scratches falling from the height arnd 6 feet.
