Great build quality - LG G Pro 2

I have the titan D838 model and I'm just happy with the build quality of LG g pro 2. First you will not find any gap between the screen and bezel for dust to accumulate like I would discover to my dismay in samsung phones even in Note 3 and no wobbly home button also to contend with. The back cover is a bit slippery compared to the faux leather of Note 3 but it is definitely fingerprint FREE. The phone is as light as the Note 3 and the curve at the back is really nice to hold. The back buttons take some time to get used to but eventually you will like it and it makes the phone really clean and free at the side bezels. The only thing I'm observing right now is the battery life. Very happy with this phone and I think this phone is highly underrated.

Second your finding! :good:
I have been holding it into the 18th day!
Gosh! This Pro 2 is such a well designed and well build and high quality piece of mobile phone! :good:

Yes this is a great indeed, just wish there was an easy root option

I see there's a *VERY* technical method for D838 root available on these forums now - hopefully this means there'll be something for us non-techies pretty soon!.
Get root on the Pro G2 and it'll be perfect.

The pro of such design decision is that dust does not absorb into bezel gap but the con is that if phone dropped bezel will easily transmit impact to glass eventually leading to crack of expensive glass and display module
IDK how I would design bezel so glass will stay intacked when being dropped

Today, my D838 has come, madness, super fast and very good processing, I'm very satisfied!

Nice to hear that you love the D838!
You can also order this thin TPU case from the German eBay site for your phone. Just don't order the transparent one as it turns yellowish very quickly.
I have ordered 1 Transparent Purple and 1 Transparent Turquoise cases from them and the quality of the case is very good! :good:
It protects all sides and corners of the phone and yet it doesn't add much bulk to your sleek Pro 2! :good:
I'm using the Transparent Turquoise case now and waiting for the Transparent Purple to arrive.
Cheers!

Although I have a question heard here is not pure, but why can not the bookmarks synchronizing with Google since Kitkat?

U should really try to switch over to Chrome. This device can handle chrome flawlessly. If it's because of the bookmarks widget thumbnails not showin, it's just a simple thing to do. I used to hate chrome because of that so I stop using it.

sticker boy skins now available

Hi I wanted to give a quick review of the sticker boy skin I received the other day for my note 8.0.
I have been using sticker boy skins for my gadgets for some time now and they have never disappointed. Their quality has always been the best out of all other skins I have tried. I usually opt for the metal series but this time because of the look of the note I went with the white carbon fiber one. The cuts are perfect and they wrap the edge up to the silver trim around the side. For the best fit with out wrinkles a slight heat with a hair dryer will help it wrap the corners. I did apply the side wraps as well but did not apply the bezel skin yet. I am not a fan of anything on the screen. No other reason than I am anal about that. All the cut its fit perfect. Even the cut out around the camera which was concerned with before I got it was perfect. Their quality seems to hold up to anything I throw at it. Sticker boy customer service is always a pleasure to deal with as well. Quick shipping and always available to make right on any quality issues. I will try to post pictures later.

I have it and love it. I had it on the S3 and they have increased the quality and usability with the preview window and the ability for it stay flipped out without it flipping back to closed due to design. The fact that you can answer calls with it closed is awesome.

I was talking about the full case from Samsung not the s view cover. I ended up picking up the light blue one from a local best buy. Only had it on for an hour or so but I have to say I'm really liking this case. Doesn't add Much weight or bulkiness to the phone and still feels very solid. Pretty impressed.
Edit: my only gripe so far is that the headphone cut out is a little small. Headphones with a straight plug work just fine but if they have a curve they don't fit into the slot... kind of a bummer as I use an auxiliary cord in my car.

Review
I have this case for over a month now, and I'm pretty much happy with it. The only thing I didn't like was that here in Saudi Arabia, only 3 colors were available for sale, Blue, White and Pink. I know there is a Black/Dark Grey variant of this protective cover but unfortunately it's not available here.
Here is a simple review that I manage to put:
Official Samsung Protective Cover+ for Galaxy S4
Pros
A simple yet functional design.
Protects the whole back and sides of the phone without the bulky appearance and feel.
It also protects the glass cover of the primary camera by giving it a few millimeters of clearance from the back.
Sturdy back, conforming and flexible sides for easy installation and removal.
The cover for the Volume Rocker and Power Button is soft and easy on the fingers. Doesn't give that rigid feel like other cases on the market.
There is an available slot if you like putting a hand or neck strap on your phone.
Cons
There is a little bit of space between the phone and the case, and if left unattended, dirt may settle-in. At least monthly, remove the phone from the case and clean it with a soft moistened piece of cloth with a non-alcohol based cleaning solution.

wow, that blue is lighter than i thought it would be, which is a good thing. as i mentioned before, i ordered the green. i'm really hoping it's a lighter green (almost lime), because that's the color of case i'm looking for.

I have to agree, after using it for around 6 hours now I am very satisfied with it. I like how its not bulky, yet still seems very sturdy.

mine came in the mail today. i gave my little mini-review of it in another thread, so this is just copy and pasted:
this case definitely lives up to all the hype i've been reading about it. the buttons respond really, really well; and it's a nice combo of soft materials on the sides and a hard plastic back. if the green was more lime (or neon), this would be my daily driver without a question. since my "negative" isn't even really a negative, i would highly recommend this case.

How I fixed chipped chrome bezel !!

I bought a Note 3 not so long ago quite cheap because of the fact that the phone had been dropped a few times and the bezel being plastic took a lot of the damage ( Pics below )
The screen was still almost perfect apart from one small scratch on the bottom left but that will be semi hidden when i receive a glass screen protector in the post.
Any way the bezel really bothered me as I always keep my phone in as perfect condition when I own them so it really frustrated me to see how someone could treat a phone like they had, As the chrome had gone through to the white plastic underneath in a few places I decided to use my little friend ( Sandpaper and create a white bezel ) But instead I got something in between the 2 of having chrome still and white in the bezel.
Its very hard to explain so just look for yourself
Although I couldn't mask the dent on the top right completely it is now improved massively.
Your feedback would be greatly desired.
I think you've done a good job there. Probably an irrelevant thought now but could you have bought a non functioning phone off the bay and used it as a donor for yours?

I know you can buy the midframe cheap online but theres a lot of process involved having to remove the display and everything. I thought id try the diy version first before having to dismantle the phone

I fixed mine with silver nailpolish...
Little tip for people who are afraid of the silver on the bezel eroding: Clear nailpolish. It's a trick us women do with those cheap fake silver rings, if you put clear nailpolish over it, it erodes a lot less.

OHH ill have to give that one a go, im sure my sister will understand its for a good cause. The glass screen protector came today and has been installed and has completely covered up all of the small surface scratches apart from the deep one but even that doesn't look as bad anymore.
Thanks for the feedback omigo's
that is awesome job, how did you protect the other parts of the phone from the sand paper ?

I cut up 400 grit sandpaper into small squares about the size of my finger. and run it it over the entire bezel at first and it didnt seem to touch the middle section so im not sure how lol. i then folded it when going around the home and volume button to ensure I got all of it. Put something over the display to stop it scratching of course
Might be tempted to see what the bezel looks like all white?
Wow! Awesome excellent job! Well done! Impressive!

Great case and Screen Protector for ZE570KL

I figured those of you who haven't decided yet, you may want some accessory recommendations.
Here is my case. It is perfect for this phone. Ignore the 1 bad review, they didn't even have this phone.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IUS5GS4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Here is my screen protector. It is a 2 pack of 9H tempered glass for $8. There is about 1mm of exposed glass on each edge after installation, but my case covers those edges perfectly. The cutouts line up perfectly and has a Hydrophobic and Oleophobic screen coating. The screen is super smooth to the touch and installs easily without a single bubble.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H3SI1TS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Those are the only accessories I've bought so far, maybe period as I can't think of anything else I could need. I have the 256GB so I won't need a MicroSD. Let me know if you have anything that may be better. I hope you are enjoying your ZenFone 3 Deluxe as much as I am.
Ordered the same case yesterday. Should get it next week... I'm glad you like it!

I ordered the silver variant of that case last week. Suprised at how well the back stays on there with as little room it has to snap on there. Got a second one coming in for my Special Edition (own the 820 and 821 model).
Anyways, it's a great case. Just wish Spigen will come out with a slimline model of their cases for the phones. Had theirs with the kickstand for my note 4 and it was about as slim as this one and worked well for the 2 years I had the phone lol

I suppose the buttons are open to subjective opinion. I think they are perfect as they stick out so they are easy to find. They take a little force which I like so they don't accidentally press but still easy enough to press without adjusting your grip on the phone. It only adds a tiny bit of stiffness to the buttons, but I could see how some would press effortless button presses. I am on the opposite side of that spectrum though
Perhaps its just a matter of me geting used to it. One thing is certain it made me easier to get finger print read correctly.. With out the cover i used to get loads of misreads and with it its all fine... Quite happy with the purchase.
Sent from my ASUS_Z016D using XDA-Developers mobile app
Yeah it forces you to hold your finger vertically. That is the one thing I don't like as I wish they would've made the sides of the fingerprint edging just as slanted as the bottom.
If you are having issues with the fingerprint sensor, when you train your finger, be sure to train it a bunch of different ways. Change up the position with each press. Heck, I presume you could even train your main finger twice as two different fingers. We only get to train 5 fingers though.

It's a good case for the price. But mine got yellow-ish tint and it is 7 months old now. It's plastic so it's expected I guess. I have a Verus case for backup (it bulks already big device quite a lot in my opinion - that's why it's backup)
Mine also had some yellow after a while, but still like the feel...

I just got the three pack in the mail, ordered it as soon as I read your OP and saw how cheap they were on eBay.
Very slick and thin, but I change out cases frequently, and think I'll enjoy having this one in rotation.

Bought the 3 pack, arrived quickly and in good shape. I changed the back cover from silver to black a few months back, now I'm regretting it. This case looks amazing with a silver phone from what I can see with the pictures posted in this thread. Black, not much, but still fitment is good. It does cut into my pinky with the way I hold the phone, but whatever. It was 6 bucks, lol.
