New colors of Note 3?! - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General

Google Now just really came through for me.
Check this out:

Thought it was worth some discussion.
What do you guys think??

Looks pretty cool but I think the black is the best color

My sentiments exactly. I usually hate black devices and tend to opt for white ones. But the white note 3 just looked tacky to me. As does the red. Also, I'm pretty sure the black has a different 'sticky' feel that the lighter colors can't have because they'll stain.

I wonder if they have the brushed-metal texture (like the black N3) or the cross-hatch pattern (like the white and pink N3s). Neither is discernible in the photo. To me, that's a bigger aesthetic consideration than the color itself.

Att: " hahaha these new colors will make them forget all about that bootloader"

I bought the white for the cross hatch pattern. I had the same black look for my Note 2. Got tired of it.
I like the black back tho. That's what's on my phone now

Who cares about colors. If you invest 700 USD on a phone you would be stupid not to put it in an ottorbox or similar case. In which case you would never see the colors anyways. All you should care about is the screen quality and function. It could be titty pink but as long as it is in a case nobody but you knows and so you should not care. I know I for one would not take my chance with this phone and just carry it in my pocket. Mine is in an ottorbox defender, it has had the plastic screen protector removed but in it's place is an armour brand matte protector.

Please learn to express your opinions without resorting to name-calling.
What's worse is that you're wrong. Those of us who don't buy expensive cases aren't stupid, we're right.
Many of us drop or bang our phones so seldom that we break them less than once every ten or twenty years. That means that if we buy an expensive case for each new phone, we end up paying MORE in the long run than we pay if we simply replace our unprotected phones on the rare occasions when they break. And that's in addition to the undesirable bulk (and yes, undesirable aesthetics) of a case.
All you should care about is the screen quality and function.

Who are you to tell other people what they should care about? Why aren't you able to have your own preferences without imagining that everyone else is supposed to have the same ones?

How about no? Those of us who really care get a phone for everything it offers. Bodyguardz screen protector, S View cover, insurance. I maintain the slim profile, add even more features to an already loaded phone, and I have a way to replace my phone for $300 total...

[MOD] Easily Remove Samsung from Google Nexus S

Today I removed my zagg full invinsible shield because it didn't fit ok so I got new one and I decided to perform a thought I had for long time....remove samsung logo!so I did it with pencil rubber and thats the result...what do you think??I love it
Samsung did good job on this one, and deserves the recognition...
That's my opinion.
OMG I'm doing that asap! So you just used a pencil eraser, did it leave and marks/scratches?

Lmao that's awesome!

I'm definitely doing it...I had this idea of removing the logo for weeks but haven't put it in practice.
turned out a simple way to do that ^_^
i personally would just remove everything altogether. not to discredit the 2 companies for the fine work theyve done, but all black no logos just looks sexy. besides, you've credited the companies already by buying their products.
I covered with sellotape the area around samsung logo then i rubbed it with a rubber with a red part and blue part, mainly with the blue part(harder) and then cleaning it with cotton.I had no scrathches but the part of the plastic with the logo was looking a little blurry at first from some angle, clean again with cotton and rubbing alcohol and it will reduce it.Today with the invinsible shield looks nice and shiny!
I do some modelling and would normally use a sand paper after I stick 2 plastic parts together (400, 800, 1000, 2000, 3000) and will finish it with a polishing compound.
for budget or practicality I use this
just make sure you use number 4 to make it shining.
I have a black soft case on my phone. Looks great and I don't have to rub any logos off. /shrug
nice mod
Thanks , very nice. I will test

Who else has given up on lift?

Don't tell me I am the only one. Has anyone else just stopped caring about screen lift? I have ATTEMPTED to fix it, but it doesn't work that well. Who else
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I've just lived with mine. It's very minor (the raised glass is about the thickness of a sheet of paper) so I consider myself one of the lucky ones.
I kept my first one. Messing with washers and shorter screws helped the visual lift a bit but the screen is creaky and squidgy and doesn't feel too solid and plenty of rippling around the screen.
The second one went back and am now on my third. It had NO lift on day one and 10 days later it still has no lift at all. It all feels very solid and no screen rippling or creaking.
So there are good ones out there.
So it's down to which you can live with easier, the screen lift or the hassle of the returns process.
I really didn't give a crap. It's a tiny minor flaw I really didn't care. I mean really, it's 200 dollars I don't expect the world. This thing does everything I wanted and more and its a measly 200 bucks. I am too busy enjoying it rather than sweat petty little stuff.
minor screen lift on mine, its in a case now, so I can't see it anyways
Open it up and on the side where the creakiness is coming from you'll notice a small strip of black foam. Remove it. This will get rid of the creakiness (worked well for me).
me...My N7 still rocks!

Just to stir the pot - I never considered screen lift real.
The bezel is flexible plastic, and the left side can dip a bit.
Maybe the bezel should have been aluminum; not a big deal anyway.

You haven't had it then. I've had two with the screen lifting along the left side, and I've seen and used ones without it. I can assure you it is very real and is a big deal.
More generally, the 'what do you expect for £200' argument is a false one as the price is not set for faulty goods. I will keep returning them until I get a good one, and I'd suggest no-one settles for less than that. But, hey, choice is yours.

Nah. My argument us sound.
No product ever made is perfect and we all accept some level of compromise. When you buy a $4 hamburger your expectations are lower than a $10 one. For you the flaws are unacceptable. For others they reflect a 'cheap' but still satisfying product. Like you said, the choice is yours

set it level, and look at the left side.. if the glass is coming up above the silver bezel, you've got lift, chances are you'll be able to push it down and it will be spongy and pop back up

But if your cheap hamburger came with the top half of the bun missing, would you just accept that cos its cheap?
The dodgy screen lift has nothing to do with it being cheap, its a fault.
I've had my third nexus for nearly two weeks, it was just as cheap as the first and second but has no faults with the screen.

If you only see glass in the middle of the left side, and not at the ends, your plastic bezel is dipping a bit.
The glass is flat; it does not curve.
I returned mine. Hoping for a revision before I have another go... the last exchange was such a hassle.

G3 Build quality thread

I've had my G3 for about a week now and I absolutely love the device. I'd like to have a discussion about build quality of the device since there's some things I've noticed with my 32gb D855 model that I'm wondering if others have had also.
1) The digitizer is quite noticeable, I guess my eyes have adjusted a bit now but it is there and quite noticeable when I pay attention
2) The back plate is screaming poor quality: it is very creaky near the top above the infrared and also around the volume down key you can really press the device and hear it creaking like a Samsung device
3) Unfortunately after caring for it with my life somehow the back cover got a huge scratch..I don't possibly know from what..a fleck of dust in the air or Something but still this shouldn't have gotten such an ugly huge scratch so easily!
4) Dust/sand or dirt is easily getting into the bezels right where the screen ends
5) As mentioned in another thread I've had the spontaneous shut down but let's not delve into that on this thread
Anyone else want to share their experiences?

I think the device feels wonderful when im using it. But I do agree that one drop and this thing is gonna be in trouble.
I managed to put a 2inch scratch on the back and I'm so carefull but managed to scratch it.

Just got mine yesterday but #2 is not an issue for me. The back is very solid and doesn't have any flex at all. I am going to put a slim case on mine though and I already have a tempered glass screen shield.
Well, mine seems pretty solid so far (got mine on Monday), the only thing from your list i noticed as well is the dust at the bezel, but it's not really in the bezel, it's just sticking at the edges, because the bezel is slightly higher than the screen, that's a bit annoying, but not really bad, because it can be easily swiped away. Except of that, I'm pretty pleased with the build quality so far, looks and feels premium, just the back doesn't feel that slick, because of the plastic, but it's still not bad at all.
Oh, and the back buttons are slightly too hard to push, but that's also not a big deal.
So, great device, I'm a happy owner^^

Do we have the same device?
1: I can barely see the digitizer unless i shine a bright light into the screen.
2: the back cover on mine fits perfectly, to the millimeter. The only creaking i hear is if i try to twist the device at either end which is acceptable as its a removable cover so should have some give.
3: that is unfortunate
4: Is this not normal of all phones. They all have a small gap between the glass and phone body. its hard to avoid, but not very big on the G3.
5: ive not had this issue fortunately.
Ive found the build quality to be very good. everything fits very nicely. and its a big step up in quality from the nexus 5 which already had a decent build quality.
Had mine for 6 days, comparing this to say an s4 or s5 is like comparing a Citroen 2CV against a Ferrari, the difference is immense in terms of both looks,build quality and feel. Loving it ?
Just got mine an hour ago. I'm coming from an S4. This phone feels cheap in comparison. I'm not sure if I'll get used to not having the true black that one gets with an AMOLED screen. But hey, it's only been an hour.:beer:

It really is a big difference between AMOLED and IPS screens. There completely different technologies, keep in mind though the IPS screen is more closer to every other screen you look at every day so its not like you dont use them already.
Im not liking how the G3 is get bashed around recently, if your not happy with it then i suggest people go back to samsung. Ive had it over a week now and the phone grows on me more every day. Once roms and tweeks come out this phone will be even more amazing

Xmas gift love it - need some suggestions

So my GF got me the 9 for my xmas gift (I got her an apple store card to outright buy the new 6, opposites and all)
Anyway I am having trouble finding a decent affordable case and glass protector for it. Im all over amazon with no luck. All the case seem like garbage and the reviews of the screen protectors say they arent real tempered glass and break easily.
Anyone bought a case they like yet. She got me a gift card to amazon with it to buy a case and I hate using my devices (all nexus) without cases on them. Wish spigen made a 9 case.
I bought this one it works great (so far) only had it for a day.

Let me know how it turns out. I figure it was on sale, so if it eventually gives out I'm not out much. ( it may always be on sale though so who knows).
There are so many cases on amazon it was hard to decide... I'm still waiting for mine to arrive but I went with this one.

Bumper goes around the entire tablet. The magnet is really strong, and no metal clips or stylus holders. It's a very clean case.

I think that I had either that case exactly, or something very similar to it, for my nexus 7, and the feature where you could make it stand up by itself was nearly useless, because it constantly fell down. it forced the tablet to stand at a nearly vertical angle, and it would just fall flat on it's face. Granted, I don't remember which brand, but I do know that I preferred to not use it.

Not a bad case- fairly priced, considering how much they want you to pay if you are considering what best buy and radio shack wants you to pay for things like that (From Belkin, etc).
However there are NO review.... always a little sign to be cautious.

its a cookie cutter case, meaning poetic has the same thing but with less designs. I'm holding it right now, yes the magnets are strong and it is a very nice slim case. the bumper goes all the way around with openings for the hard to find buttons , and the USB port and lower mic. with tiny opening for the upper microphone hole (both of them, yes the N9 records stereo vids)

screen protector is good quality. its a VERY thick dense acrylic urethane. Not glass like I want but I cant seem to find a glass one yet. Most say they arent in the reviews. For now for the price this is a really good one for the money.

Love this case. Just like the one I Have on my nexus 7 thats been on since 2012 and kept it new looking.
Fully protected, not heavy at all, and the stand is great. For 12$ its well worth it. love clam shell cases on my tabs so I get the comfort of know the screen is covered when I carry it. This is def a good case.

Bezil chrome coming off

OK I got an s4 for free a week ago that had a little bit of its small bezil around the screen revealing the white under the cheap crome. It's increased drematicly over the last few days. Any way to repair it or at least make it look nice again without a case?

Spray paint or a bumper.
There's nothing you can do to prevent it.
The paint is coming off my phone too. And it's coming off in stupid areas, like around the infrared port and the headphone slot. It doesn't even make sense, I don't even touch that area. But the sides, where there most contact happens, are fine, practicly like new.

For me it's mainly around the screen so it's visible when in use and damn ugly xD. I'm buying a $60 new battery for this phone i got for free so overall $60 I'm not sure an s4 in this condition is worth :/ is it? Oh and yeah my headphone port is completely white. It's funny how the thicker side band is bumped on mine and won't peel but the most hard to replace part decides to

Your best option would be a bumper. But avoid metallic bumpers, as they mess with WiFi and mobile signals.

How about removing the rest of the chrome so the rim of my screen is full white? Would that look any good xD. Otherwise I'll unhappily live with it

What did u do about yours

I didn't do anything. It happens. My phone is black, so removing the chrome might not look as good as on a white phone.
But it doesn't affect me in any way. I care more about it working fine than looking brand new. Of course, if you're going to sell it, it is important to keep it in good shape. But if I get a new phone I will keep this one as a backup most probably. So that's that.

I have a brown and rose gold and it pains me too. Just get a full case that covers all those areas.

I use a Spigen hybrid case and it works well and looks good. Look on Aliexpress for various cases. I find the s4 too slippery without a case.
