I expected more from the LED cover since it has 2 screens and detects touch gestures but haven't found much on how to program it yourself. I could only find one reddit post about it. Looks like we need more attention on this subject
I'm sure 3rd party functionality is possible, I've reached out to Samsung to provide more information for developers to work with the case.
If anyone has learned anything new, please feel free to share!
im really looking forward to see if anything will be done on this .....
its a great case..

I simply do not use the hard keyboard, so I would LOVE to find a case that snaps together instead of individually to the two halves of the phone, basically making it a touch screen only phone.
no offense but i sure hope not
but im sure there will be
try ebay
I doubt it anyone will make a case intentionally like that for a phone that was designed to have a slideout keyboard as it's descerning feature from the EVO.
This would work:

Yeah I use the keyboard like 1 a week or hardly at all.. I'm so used to swype.
I don't think you'll find anybody on here who will make you one. But I'm sure if you search the net you might find it.

http://cgi.ebay.com/MONACO-ALUMINUM...124785?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5d2c3c8ef1 - $8 less and shipped.
That is actually a pretty cool looking case, but I wouldn't like to have to flip it open every time. For the OP though, it'd be perfect. If this thing had a built-in EVO type kickstand, I'd consider getting it and using Swype more.
My only issue is it would seem that since it is designed to open for use, it could be prone to opening when I dont want it to, causing me to possibly drop the phone
I found a jelly case from Zooly, but cannot find anyone that actually carries it.
Hello. I want to design my own back cover case for my i9000 and i have spoken to a company who can help me build one from start with my own material but they need a drawing of the Battery cover with measurements and 3d pictures so the computer can scan it into the machine. Someone know where can i found one?
There must be some sketch out there, when there are many different custom shell on the web.
I have email Samsung support but they didnt sound so happy so I do not expect to get an answer from them.
Anyone know where to find a drawing? thx ..
May be this website comes handy.. http://www.the3dstudio.com/product_details.aspx?id_product=355348
I'm also interested in this so if this works out can you let me know if i can get one too?
I can't find a good replacement beside official Samsung which cost way too much for a piece of plastic
Maybe you can make a mold of your batterycover and give it to them?
site: mold-making . com
custom battery cover
im also very interested in this, what kind of company would do this sort of stuff? and where would i find someone who can do it?
im also very interested in this,hope to hear more about it
any updates?
Hello all. I tried to do some reading but due to illness have limited time i can read . So my screen is secerly cracked but amazingly its still repsonsive ive seen nillkin iloome and a couple othwrs but since this is an s pen screen i wanted to ask people who deal with the 8.0. I cant afford a fix.or at least im assuming i cant. So any suggestions would be a huge help for me
Edit: i have amazon prime and use ebay so if you have a certain seller or item youve had great luck with if love to hear about them, especially if i can dhave off a few bucks or free shipping but ultimately i will go for whatever helps me survive this even if my beloved device is osmetically challenged

Buy only the glass and change it yourself?
How difficult is this? Is there a tutorial link. I have tremors and spasticity in hands from spinal disease but I may give it a try if double. Thanks for the response. Any other thoughts are welcomed and appreciated

does your screen cracked severely or small crack only? if small, you could go for glass screen protector only for $9 just to hold the glass stable with pressure spread evenly. if it hinder your usage i suggest replacing would be an option because note 8 is still a great device and i use it a lot in my study so for me repairing it would be a great investment. if you thought about changing it yourself, its not that hard but still need a stable hand but still very moderate for people with no experience. Just think about it, buying a new tablet is a waste unless you get tablet that is more powerful than note 8.
edit: Im sorry for your hand, i hope you get better soon
edit again: you might want to consider replacing it sooner, with a crack, unwanted things can get through the crack and can damage the internal if you're not careful
Hello, it's been a while since i posted here, the last time i managed to figure out the stuff i needed by my own but i hope i'm more lucky this time as i cant really find anything about this topic either here or anywhere else.
I'm needing a new phone as the old/current one is broken and i dont want to spend more than for buying a new one to repair it.
The few phones that i like, within my specs and price range, have the fingerprint sensor, now, i know everyone gets super excited about that because nobody can touch their phone(i'm still wondering how people can have so important stuff to hide to need a fingerprint sensor lol), yet i seriously dislike them and dont really want it on my phone.
Before someone says i can "disable it" from setup, i know that, but disabling it from menu is equal to put a curtain infront of a window while someone is burning your car. You wont see him doing it, but that wont stop the car from burning down to dust.
Clarified this, i'd like to know if anyone ever tried unplugging a fingerprint sensor on their phone, and if it did work or not.
My main doubt is if the sensor itself is used as a resistance, impedance or a simple any form of current/power delivery system, thus being a fundamental component to close the circuit.
Please answer only if you really know what are you talking about. Thanks a lot everyone for at least bothering to read my odd question.
ps: the phone i'm currently looking at is the Honor 7 lite, aka the "poor" brother of the Huawei GT3. I know they also made the Honor 5c, which already comes without sensor, but i cant find it for sale anywhere(other than the other side of the world, with prohibitive shipping costs and huge customs costs) so i'll have to stick to the Honor 7, and remove that sensor, if it is possible, or just get another phone.
Wow, and this is supposed to be the best mobile phone forum ever... i've solved on my own anyways.
Hi,
I'm new to this forum so apologies if this issue has been discussed before (I did a search but couldn't find anything.)
I've just bought a Huawei Watch 2 Classic and so far I've been very pleased with it, except for one thing. A day or two since I started using it, I noticed that on a grey background i.e. the one used for both the notification cards and the app menu, there's a sort of 'smudge' or unevenness to the screen at around the 10 O'Clock mark that's distracting. It's quite subtle and hard to describe (a cloud? bright patch? light bleed?) but once you've noticed it it's hard not to see it:
(I tried to post pictures of the problem here but I can't yet as I'm a new member)
It's always going to be difficult to take a picture of such an issue as the camera will correct for white balance, exposure etc but trust me it's more noticeable in person. In bright light it's also harder to see and is most noticeable at night or in dim light. To be completely honest, I can't see the issue on any other background or situation except when viewing notification cards or the app menu but I try not to go looking for it either.
All I want to know is am I being pedantic or should I be requesting a replacement?
Can you try and post pictures, I know .ay not be easy.
I haven't seen this issue but I've noticed the screen goes grey when on standby

I tried in every way possible to upload pictures or at least links to them but I can't as I'm a new member and therefore I have to make around 10 posts before I can publish any external links or pictures. I never got a response back from the forum owner requesting that I be able to do so either.
Perhaps when I've made a few more posts I'll upload the pictures for you to see, if only for future reference.
For information, I ended up sending it back for a full refund anyway - not necessarily because of the screen issue but because I couldn't see how it fit into my life. Also the supplier was out of stock for a replacement anyway so the choice was sort of made for me. I found it was actually more annoying having constant notifications on my wrist than on my phone, not to mention being socially unacceptable to have to keep looking down at my watch on a frequent basis. Unless these notifications were read or actioned as soon as they arrived, I found the interface to be too clunky to deal with them later which meant a lot of swiping and prodding, not an ideal experience.
Never mind, perhaps the smart watch market will mature in the not too distant future. I may well re-visit the idea at some point but for now I'll stick to a traditional timepiece.

actually when you get used to it you'll know that it's way better than traditional watches, you can see the weather and track your activities on your watch and listen to music without even taking your phone with you! and its getting way more normal in social life to have a smart watch specially when there are many people using apple watch right now that has a lot less features than android wear! (maybe not a lot but hey, its android!)
