Spigen Slim Armor View Fail - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General

I been using the Slim Armor View for a couple weeks now. I really liked it until this happened. the button on slim armor cracked the screen. You can see the glass dust on the top left side of the button. Replacement coming from Asurion on Monday. I am also going to contact Spigen.

Yeah, that's messed up big time. Thanks for sharing.
I was actually interested in picking one of those cases up recently. Think I'll just continue to wait for the SEIDIO OBEX.

Thanks for the heads up. Im assuming this came from a drop of the case on the front. I popped my button out just in case. I never used it anyways. Sorry bro, hopefully someone will stand behind their product.

Had the phone in my back pocket.

I hate that for you man, I was thinking about getting one of these too. Has spigen replied about it yet?

Wow, that's messed up when the case you bought to protect the phone, breaks the phone. Using a Spigen Neo Hybrid myself and this really gave me a chill.

They have not replied yet. Knowing their customer service, I expect a reply in a month.
I am still using the case. I just popped out the button.

So the worst thing is I can't get my new phone rooted. Kingo keeps failing.

Sorry to hear that the spigen hybrid I love it. Kingo no longer works you have to use v root then look on YouTube how to push super user they show how to do it on an s4.

Yeah I couldn't get Kingo to work to save my life. I tried every trouble shoot imaginable to make it work too. Just use Vroot. Works flawlessy

Man sorry to see this. I am sure this would have happened to me too if I didn't have tempered glass.
Hopefully they will help you out

Just got a free SGP Tempered glass SP

I just got a free tempered glass screen protector! I had one of the sp that came with the sgp rubber cases. And it started to peel. So I contacted them, and they said they would send me a replacement. Well I check my mail 2 days later I get this. Which is today when I got it! I can't believe they sent me this for free!

It's good to know there are companies that care about their user-base and do things like that. If every company was like that, the world would rock!

Yea. That was very nice of them. How do I put this thing on? Lol
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Its actually very easy. Before you actually lay it down be sure you have the ear puece hole and bevels lined up. Lay it down and apply medium pressure with one finger in the center and watch it adhere. Be sure the surface is clean as can be before yoh apply it and wash your hands

agreed. kickstand is a great addition to this phone. esp when you have kids and want to play a video for them during dinner. or if you use it with a foldable bluetooth keyboard as a portable workstation. i like how the front wraps around the face to protect the screen.
This case looks horrible.

This case is actually pretty good. It is very thin and yet provides all around protection. And because it is so thin it can be used with those cheap holsters with kick stand. I bought a similar case and use it with that holster to get a nice protection with the kickstand - the best of both worlds.
Android thing on corner is beat too.

Yep. No matter what you do, try to bring a lil Andy design to the table for our notes and i get ripped up cause it not a goddamn transformer for ten bucks. lol.
I was just saying today, I wish there was a case that had something to grab onto when taking the phone out of my pocket. Can't tell you how many people I hung up on trying to get this boat out of my pocket. I could grab that android guy.

Depending on your budget, perhaps Liquipel plus a decent case just to be extra sure, such as otterbox or similiar.

I did a lot of review on Liquipel, but it kind of win/fail so I don't know if I'm consider this. Unless I find someone who bought a $99 dollar package and post a video review of it before I buying it...if it work, then I will also throw in Otterbox Defender for ultimate protection

Power button scratched easily

After looking at the power button under light I can see a ton of very small scratches, I have only had the phone for two days so it seems a bit crazy. Anyone else see similar scratches on the powerbutton/IR?

Same here, but nothing bothersome personally. I don't find myself being bothered by it too much in the future

I'm simply pointing out what I'm experiencing with my new phone and noticed that no one has really mentioned this. I know it's not a terribly serious issue, but that doesn't give you the right to be an ass.

Is the glass separating?

I took my phone out of my pocket and it looked as though the glass was separating. It's not cracked and wasn't dropped. I have it in a crizerlite case so it is protected. Anyone ever see this happen? If it's the glass I will just replace it with a new glass. I just wanted to make sure I get the gorilla glass and not cheap eBay knockoff. Links welcome!

Hmm, maybe it was left out in the sun and the glue adhesive loosened up?

Never done that either, plus it's only about 40 degrees here now. 26 at night brrrrr. I am going to replace the glass and go with that just seems like the glass is coming apart like it is laminated or something. Really odd.

I figured out that it is the glass separating from the black backing. I have never seen this happen, I know I'm hot but dang. Didn't think my body heat would cause that to happen. Haha.

I ended up breaking the digitizer in my s3 and had to pay the 100.00 (asurion) anyway to get replaced on top of 40 for glass I never used. Fell free to try but takes lots of heat and time "TAKE your TIME".
