Contactless payment hack - Galaxy S 5 Accessories

It looks like my bank will never support NFC payment or contactless stickers. So I tried to implement regular card into phone.
1) Melt card in acetone
2) Separate out antenna and chip, stick to tape
3) Make the space in back cover (using 3500mAh original cover) for the chip
4) Put it between battery and cover, zero bulkiness.
5) Pay!
Payments are working just like regular contactless card! Only con is problematic NFC connection (because of overlaying antenna), but I never use NFC...
Did you try anything similar?
PS: Credit card modifications are kind of illegal I think...

Nobody seems sure if this baby has a slidey-keyboard or not.
What do we think, kids?
Yay for built-in GPS though. I think, if the software is easy to use, this could be a killer app for smart-phones.
Also: boo on micro-SD, give us regular SD so we can cram a whole 8Gb into this baby.
Maybe there will be two different models of it like the Wizard? There is the WIZ100, which is more square. And there is the WIZ200 which is more rounded. Same basic hardware though.
The black concept looks amazing

Wallet Case for One S

Hello ladies and gentleman,
does any of you know if there are 'wallet cases' available for our beloved One S? I'm looking for ones like these: (from an iPhone)

(Ignore the backstrap...)
I have already googled around for myself, but I couldn't find what I was looking for.
Maybe one of you has an idea if there are such cases, or maybe someone has a super secret special source?
Thanks in advance,
~ Datzi
//edit: I'm not looking for flip covers...
I would not dare wear a money pouch phone.
Not sure I like the idea of having my cards ad cash sticking out of the front like that but there are plenty of cases that have card slots on the inside. Of course there the problems is you can end up with card marks on the screen/protector over time.
NFC ??
i'm not sure about it but i think that the one s has an NFC chip in it... wouldn't it be interfering with your credit cards ??
No NFC chip in the One S but even if there were it would have no effect on a credit card.

Is this "new" battery used?

Just bought this off Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DRODFNK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and I'm pretty sure it's used. For those of you who have replaced your battery, is there any chance this is new and I'm crazy before I return?

Thanks.
*Note*
I bought from the US supplier, Everyday Source.
I need some help finding a legitimate battery also
That scrape down the middle combined with wrinkles definitely looks like it was originally glued in, and someone shoved a spudger or something underneath to pry it out.
A new OEM battery should cost about $20USD. As a general rule, if the price seems too good to be true, then it usually is. The description in the link says nothing about the battery being new either.
That's what I thought. The battery is going back. BTW, it's listed in the inventory field as new from the place I ordered.

Broken sim tray

Use a sewing needle / pin, maybe try bend the end into a small hook?

^^ Think tweezers will be far too thick, SIM tray is very thin
I have very small tweezers and they fit in! Just tried
by tweezers it is hard, but no choice i have to open back cover . thats how i removed it.
next challenge i cant get original sim tray so i got local made. it worked fine as network is back but every SD card i put it show unsupported.

Any one try this batteries? Are they the real stuff?
According app from OP, my original battery is about 89%......
Thank you!
UPDATE:
Already installed and they look original.
After remove black paper, there was the logo of OP.
Some photos for posterity:
Infortunaly, i broke the rear glass, due my inexperience. Already gonna ask a new new. Didnt use glue, but only the original one.
It will be more easy to replace for the new one.
P.S. - VOOC or Dash, works. Gonna let deplete battery, the full charge to optimize battery.:silly:
Amazing.....24H and i still have 69%!
