Hello,
Before buying my Samsung Galaxy S Plus I read on several sites that the hull will be metal (unlike the Galaxy S that has the plastic).
Out on my Galaxy S Plus hull is exactly the same as on a Galaxy S.
Note that I live in France.
Is what it is like for you?
thank you
(Sorry for my bad English)

This is minimoding, please stop doing this, use report button instead.
Thx
Btw. mine is plastic
Mine's plastic too (im in Holland, with Polish device) and I use a silver casemate. Works like a charm!
I thought I saw other types of battery covers online...so maybe you can buy a metallic cover on the web.

You can buy silicon back on ebay. Is cheap and better than original.

that is FABULOUS! Where on earth did you manage to find that website?
I did a lot of research. It was like at the end of google search. lol.
Any other similar websites that you want to share? You seem to be a grandmaster on this.
As for using the website, use google toolbar to translate the page. The first one says case. The problem is what happens next. The selections are not in the same order as the pictures. I can't figure out which one is for the kicker stand case. There's one called crocker diary, but it comes in a whole bunch of different colours, whereas the stand only comes in black...
Found another one (in the same website).
http://item.gmarket.co.kr/challenge...cd=GE&pos_class_cd=200001759&pos_class_kind=M
The glossy one has the word "sold" next to it, so I guess only the matte one is available. 9,100 won, which is about 7.64 US$. Of course, the shipping fee is likely to be more than triple that.
I have finally found the case where the website is english. I guess they recently posted this because it wasn't there before. Here you go!

I just order mines. I'll let you know how it is when it arrives.
Sweet. Did they mention how long it will take to arrive? Can't wait for your review.
I should prowling korean sites more often.

thanks so much for posting that ebay link!
Ahhh. You guys are evil! Stop making me wanting to order one without waiting for an review!
*Goes off to kidnap someone who can read korean*
HOLY ****!
I Tried buying that case of Gmarket but kept coming up with errors so i decided to buy the mesh case from ebay which cost me SGD$20(USD$15) with shipping.
The seller seliing the kickstand case also sells the mesh case for only about USD$10 with shipping too!!
Damnit.. bought my case too earlier, i wanted the kickstand case so badly, but i would prefer the rubberised one as seen on Gmarket
Wait, what? There's a rubberised kick stand case? Link please

The one on Gmarket that the other guy is talking about is a matt black color - it is hard case, not rubber. This one is glossy black. I also saw white glossy and a pink color as well.
Is there a picture of the matt black case? I haven't seen one yet. I want to know if the silver bit is matt as well.

The metal piece (the standing piece) is still metal.
it looked like rubberised or soft-touch to me ...
Goddamn that kickstand case (ebay link) is so sexy!!! I can only just resist buying it, as I've already spent too much on accessories...
Only problem is, does it properly clip on to the phone? It looks like it doesnt lock over the front of the phone 0_0.
But in all seriousness, that thing is godly. Koreans sure know how to design quality products!!!
I'm also tempted to try and replicate the metal part for a homemade kickstand... sounds like a good project!!!
are people using silcone protective cases for the back and sides of the device if so shich ones and what are you views
bought a cheap one of flea bay to start with but the power button is awfull to use with it on?
sorry posted this in wrong section could a MOD move it accessories please
MOD Edit: Done
Cheers,

Hi there,
I bought the official protective cover for my S4 but it is too thick for me.
Now I am looking for a lightweight transparent plastic bumper that covers only the borders of the device but I can not find anything.
Please, can anybody help me?
THANKS!!
I'd be interested in one of these too... Anyone?
what about this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300907239304&ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:U:US:3160

Not a bumper but might fit your needs: http://www.amazon.com/LUVVITT®-CRIS...TF8&qid=1371528277&sr=1-1&keywords=luvvitt+s4

This one is not a bumper, but is clear and transparent. Seems to be OK, but I dont want to increase the thickness.

Thanks to this URL I found this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ultra-Hybri...157&pid=100011&prg=7578&rk=5&sd=300907239304&
I think this is the best match for a transparent bumper
Thanks!! If anyone finds a new transparent bumper please post it.

Hi all.
Can someone advise me a case for this smartphone?
(A case that you have tested would be perfect)
I ask this because looking on ebay there are several case, but some of these from the photos do not appear specific to the Xperia L, and given that this smartphone is slightly concave on the back I would not buy a wrong case.

love it.. it fit perfects on hand, specially when playing lying down..
it's around $13-14 on our country, unlike the one posted on their site..
:highfive:
EDIT:
I will not recommend this case anymore.. this morning, it had chipped away some parts on its edge..
meaning, it's already damage, and its less than 2 weeks!!

Hey guys...I am thinking to buy a case.so far my phone didn't got any scratch because the back cover is really good material.However,I never droped it so even if it's pretty like this,I don't want to risk.So found 3 cases that i like:
Case Nr.1
Case Nr.2
Case Nr.3
I m not sure which one to choose.I'm interested that they don't tend to stick to my pocket when i try to get the phone like silicon cases do and to be as thin as possible.I would prefer Nr.3 but I'm not sure because in the product description it says that package box contain only screen guard.....Do you think they fit my needs?Any other suggestions?Preferably any other link for Nr.3 option that contains the whole set.Thanks!
I personally like the second one most of your three.
But myself, I would love to have a "case" like samsung usually produces for their devices, which is just a replacement for backcover and adds a screen saver to 'clip" over screen.... if you know what i mean

I have a fairly expensive Krusell case. It's a bit bulky, but the grip is excellent and it solves the problem with the protruding power button.
what about incipio dualpro case
nb : sorry if my english so bad
Another vote for ebay nillkin stuff... fairly cheap - around 8$ ... I'll post some pictures /when xda lets me post links/ GRRRR!

I was looking to replace the plastic back on my S4 SGH-i337 and I saw that the i9500 has replacement backs that are brushed aluminium. Would that fit onto the SGH-i337? I just want to get rid of the AT&T logo on the back and get a more durable feeling back on it all together.
Here's the i9500 replacement. Thanks in advanced.
Edit* I cannot post outside links as I don't have 10 posts. I've just been sitting on this account lurking rather than posting and that's bitten me in the ass.
Instead here's what to search for on amazon.

Based on what I've read regarding metal backplates for phones... It's best to avoid them as they will hinder your cell reception.
I guess it's along the line of a Faraday Cage.

Dang, I'm just looking for something to put on the backplate that feels a little bit more sturdy than the original back. Any idea what would be the best recommendation for that stuff.

How did yours do as far as reception? Any loss in that at all or does it seem to stay around the same?
Sorry if I'm hijacking your thread but this seemed applicable. Does anyone know of a white replacement back that are grippier or have a bit more texture than the stock one? I know they made black soft touch replacement backs for the S3. And no I don't want to use a case.

Try one of these. They dont appear to be soft touch though. Only other backs I found that werent oem or aluminum. Thinking of trying one since I hate the black mist back.
