Samsumg OEM flip cover case ...

Recently saw my friend with his S3 and the flip cover case. Is there anything related to that case that can work for the skyrocket? Or even if they make one for the skyrocket?
Thanks:good:

OMG I have been looking for one of these forever. To bad I'm about to get the note 2, still may get one so I can switch back to my i727 on occasion.

Auto Sleep/Wake not working

Hey guys,
I just got my Note PRO 12.2 (P900, EU) last week and bought the corresponding cover for it (http://www.amazon.de/Supremery-Samsung-Galaxy-Tasche-Tablet-PC/dp/B00JFRNEL6/ref=cm_cr_pr_pb_t).
While the article description states it should have the function to auto wake/sleep my device, this doesn't work. While a friend of mine got a Note 10.1 2014 with the same case (in the corresponding size, duh.) and the function is working. I also tried to hold his smaller case near the "Samsung" Logo and all other edges, but nothing worked.
Now the question would be: I'm sure there is no option so that it's turned off, right? Is the case faulty or is there any chance I have to send back my device? Also I'm running the Stock ROM with the newest update that I got yesterday.
Edit: Just got a new thought: I don't own the 905, so therefore there is no proximity sensor on my device.. Or is it working magnetically with all those "smart covers"?

Magnetic sensor . . about 1.5 inches to the right of the G in the Samsung logo at the top, and about 0.75 inches below the G.
Try it with another magnet and see if you can get things to work. As far as I know the only case/cover related settings are found in Settings - General - Accessory - Book Cover. On my tablet there is no setting to disable the magnetic sensor however.

Only genuine samsung will work as it has a coded chip the phone reads via nfc

Really?? Damn..they told me at the store that it would work it just had to be configurated

My samsung s-view case works without the nfc function turned on. I use this case daily and don't have any issues. If the s-view case has nfc, what is it used for? Magnet on the screen flap turns my screen on and off...

samsung s5 s view cover
Hi everyone,
I have a genuine s view cover that used to work perfectly.
I took it off about a month ago and put it back on and now it doesn't work.
Any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks

The S View cover can't be "configured", it either works or it doesn't. It should just work though my genuine Samsung one has been a bit hit and miss. Try rebooting / reflashing firmware if it doesn't work. Mine works ok 99% of the time then every now and again "accessories" don't show up in settings and it doesn't work....annoying...If a shop tells you it needs configuring take the cover back for a refund as their statement is a crock of s**t....

I have the same problem. The cover was working just fine until yesterday for more than 2 months now. But from yesterday it just stopped working. Is there any app to track what changes i have made at the phone the last days for example? I believe it is software issue..

Broken chip inside the cover.

How to wake up phone when using full case (e.g. waterproof)

I have tried some phones (I use HTC U Ultra, checked it with Nokia 8 also) and there is huge problem with waking up.
Despite using knock/double tap function to wake up phone it very very rarely works. At first I thought there is problem with film protector in my phone case.
I use bike dust proof case for my phone and would like to easily check map in phone. I have bought 3 different cases. I have bought 3 waterproof cases for kayaking. Nothing really changed.
Now I suspect that there is problem with android and it blocks waking up when proximity sensor is covered (and it always is when in case).
Then I've came up with NFC unlocking but these idiots killed it in 2017.
Searched (almost) whole internet and was shocked nobody has problem with this scenario. How people use phones then ? Am I missing something?
How to wake up phone in this case ?

Question Screen protector help / advice

Hi all
I'm hoping to get a z flip 4 soon and want to make sure it's as protected as possible. I want to put a good screen protector on it for obvious reasons and was wondering if I need to remove the factory one first or just put new one on top? I believe samsung say not to remove factory one but videos on YouTube say otherwise. What would you guys do?
Cheers

If u want to put another you have to remove factory one and if u not want to remove factory one then use it only

The factory one is pretty good. No more coming up at the edges. Bought presale still looks new. Samsung also offers one free replacement for first year.

@mt2020 Cheers bud, that's good to hear. I'm really looking forward to getting my first decent phone in years!!

The original foil on the display cannot be removed .
Samsung - threatens to void the warranty if the original foil is torn off .
Even when installing the phone , this message appears .
What's more , if the foil becomes damaged or peels off , Samsung will replace it free of charge .
It is also not recommended to stick additional foil .
Cordial greetings .

The internal one is good. I can see no point in trying to change it.
However, the real danger area is the one on the outside and I cannot work out whether it has a factory fitted protector or not. Any info?

Hello !
The external / cover display is not secured .
Personally , I had a foil stuck on - in one of the well-known chains with electronic equipment and RTV / household appliances .
The cost of such a service is less than 10 Euro ... and it lasted 5 minutes .
Due to the fact that I do not use any case , I also covered the entire phone from the outside .

I took my Flip4 to UBreakIfix to have the original factory screen protector replaced under warranty due to delamination. The Samsung website referred me to them. Unfortunately there are few shops in my area that have the machine to install them and they were out of stock. I didn't realize that they even had a machine to install screen protectors. The tech said that the protector delamination issue has been around since the first Flip. I hope the redesigned hinge on the Flip5 won't have this issue.

Dear @Matterhorn ,
tell - please - after what time the protective foil on your Flip 4 delaminates .

It just happened. I pre-ordered my Flip4 so it must be about 6 months old. I'm hoping that the replacement lasts until the Flip5 is released. I also hope they give a big trade in like last time. Otherwise I might have to go back to Pixel and get the 8.

Mine same age as yours, so far zero issues. Came from Pixel, bugs galore and slow to fix. Great camera though. Samsung really got their act together compared to 5 or more years ago. Watch 5 also isn't fully supported with pixel, so hoping camera gets big boost on flip 5.
