I recently bought the Baseus S-View flip case for my note 3. It had been functioning well for a week, but now all of a sudden it has stopped working. When I flip the case closed the S-View function doesn't work. I am running 4.3 Jelly Bean. The two pins are attached to the back of the case as well. Anyone give a suggestion?
1. Restart your phone, remove case and put it back on
2. Power off your phone, power it on. Remove case and put it back on.

tried that, it didn't work
Try this, while the phone is on , screen off , separate the chip on the case from the back of the phone, wait a couple seconds, push the back of the case back on...

Screen turns off when placing phone to ear as expected however does not come back on when pulled away. Only after the 2nd party disconnects will the screen come back on after pressing power button and the only to the lock screen. This is a new issue. Anyone else having this problem or know of a solution?

Maybe faulty proximity sensor. I had that issue in my galaxy nexus. Ended up getting a new one

Call insurance. Get a new one or refurb for that matter.

Are you stock? Rooted? I ran into this issue a few times with persus kernel.
I'm having the same issue. Anyone find a fix for this?
Just got off the phone with Verizon. They're sending a replacement. Something wrong with proximity sensor. Actually appears to be a speck behind glass over sensor.

I have also been having a bit of trouble with the same thing. On top of the screen not always coming on when I move the phone away from my ear during a phone call, sometimes when I pull up the keypad while on the phone and attempt to press a key, the screen will turn off. I think it's because the shadow of my hand makes it think it's back up to my ear. I see two little sensors next to the camera; one of them appears to have a little speck or dot on it. Maybe a piece of dirt in it? Can somebody who doesn't have this problem check and see if they see a very very tiny dot on the sensor closest to the in call speaker?
I've been having the same issue with my Note 2, I was wondering if this could be a software issue since I have messed with a few roms but decided to go back to stock. I've been looking everywhere for a solution, even went as far trying to find replacement files to see if that would fix it, but to no avail. I guess I'll have to replace the device.

Have you received your replacement?
If you have, did they send you a certified like-new or a brand new replacement?
Thank you

I have found a fix for this, at least for me, as I mentioned in an earlier post I had flashed a few ROMs, decided to search the other carriers galaxy note 2 forums and found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2070360&highlight=proximity+sensor
Luckily there is a Perseus kernel for verizon too here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048013
Will do this later and report.
Edit: the perseus kernel by itself didn't do the trick but beanstown's stock root/deodex and jelly 'beans' roms did! I now have everything working like new with cleanrom installed

You probably got one that was repaired in China. Hate getting phones from the Chinese, cheap but poor quality. Thanks

The past couple of weeks I noticed that every once in a while my phone would be in drive mode for no apparent reason. Well last night I realized it was the magnet in my nexus 7 case that was causing it. If you place the magnet on the back of the optimus g it activates driving mode. Don't know if there are any car accessories with magnets but was wondering if it could be programmed to open a different app. Don't know how useful it would be but just a thought.

I set my phone on my Bluetooth hmdx jam speaker ant it has been doing that since this phone came out.
Old this was discussed like December if I recall. We came to the conclusion that it was a ditched peripheral from lg for a ditched car accessory

I just loaded SnowJB and it doesn't seem to do it anymore. Only worked on stock ICS it seems. This ROM doesn't have the drive mode app so that's probably why. It was annoying so glad its gone.

I am on Snow too. Was thinking about rigging up my own car dock/magnet, but oh well. Easy come, easy go.
Does not work on snow job but that's OK.
Look at this dock it has a magnet on it

Earlier today I attempted replacing the screen on my DNA. All went well aside from the fact that I somehow managed to break off the little part of the power button that makes it click. So, would anyone out there willing to pay a reasonable amount for it? It works 100% otherwise, I just have a slight case of OCD and cant deal with it.

Slight Water dmg a few months ago, but recently cam & haptic feedback went out. Sent it to Squaretrade & they "fixed" it then sent it back. Now I keep getting "enter password to activate new sim" happens randomly but often right after reboots

Silly question but I have to ask. Are you certain it is installed properly? When I first bought my phone the salesman put the sim in but didn't put it in all the way. Only thee plastic trap door was holding it in.

Yep. Your post made me check it again just to be sure. All is secure. Annoyed though, last time they "fixed" it it took 6 business days to get it back. Front want that to happen again might have to sell it if it keeps up. I've heard of the sim reader failing, but under different circumstances
Try to take the back cover off there is vids on YouTube make sure the ribbon for the sim is properly set to the board.

Not very, why not just get a wireless charging dock and a wireless charging back cover for your s4 and cancel the replacement?

I agree have someone fix it or look on YouTube for a step by step guide. MDK is too valuable to loose! That's why I'm so careful with mine, I've gotten so used to aosp I couldn't go back to touchjizz.

No soldering... Just pull up the glue and remove two plugs. (They just snap on and snap off)

as myself previously having a MDK S4 rooted in all AOSP glory and having to get a replacement and stuck with safe strap now. you really really want to keep your phone and fix it yourself. This phone is a POS when not AOSP.

Well not true. There are wireless connection methods used everywhere with this phone: I happen to use Hyperdrive Rom's FTP transfer to connect my MDK S4 to my home's wireless network, to transfer files between phone and computer. You can do everything you need to wirelessly: charging, and file transfers!!
You don't need to fix anything, just buy the wireless charging thing, and do wireless file transfers!
Plus we've got removable batteries. I've got two spares and an external charger/dock. I just rotate the batteries while charging isn't available.

Oh, good point. Well, I guess if you need to use one of those things, you'll have to replace the USB port, or lose your MDK. Sucks, but I'd go for replacing the USB port any day. It's a good opportunity for learning more about how phones are put together, too.
UPDATE: Ordered the part from Amazon, got it in about 2 days. Took about 10 minutes to swap, and that was only because I was having a hard time putting the super small screws back in. Everything went well and I have a working usb port and kept MDK!

Also beware of this before you buy:
I purchased this product because my Galaxy S4 USB port stopped working. I installed the replacement part and so far so good - my phone charges again! I initially had a microphone problem (which others have mentioned here), but I was able to resolve it by removing an orange / amber colored piece of protective tape that was covering the microphone port / hole.

That's the one I was looking at. But it said 17-31 days shipping when I ordered. So I cancelled. Appreciate the response.
