SGP Neo Hybrid SGS3 Issue

As some of you know, neo hybrid has some volume issues. Here are some videos. Already trying to return this (neo hybrid infinity white), I actually preferred and bought the Lumi Sparkling Blue (matches my theme, hehe~) so that is being shipped today. Some did say that one works better (?), not sure but time will tell.
Design wise, I LOVE it. Just wish I would have a perfect working case.

I purchased the Lumi Sparkling Blue and have the same issue.

try taking the case off and with the back of a pen or something, pushing outward on the inside of the volume rocker to stretch it out

I just got the lumi sparkly blue case in today and so far not having any problems with the volume, did you start notice them right or way or did it appear after couple of days of use?

right away

Just shave down the inside, it's a simple fix I did on mine. Works perfect now. I know you probably want a case that works right out of the box but I think it's worth an effort.

I would like to know with what you did it? Any pictures?

If you look inside of the case where the buttons are, there are little nubs that sticks out. I'm guessing SGP made it little too long, so just cut it off or trim it till it meets your desire.
I had posted picture of my case on other thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29133860 check post #61, you will notice where I cut the little nubs.

Was a bit skeptical but I love the look of the case too much to return it. Used a razor blade to shave down the nubs and now the issue is gone, just lose the clickyness of the buttons. Thanks

Small bump for this thread... Got my cases from SGP, ordered 2, one in marble white and one in shinny grass, and the green one has this exact problem...
Can anyone confirm that they shaved off a bit of the button and it worked?
Thanks,
JP

I guess it'll be a month or to before the cheaper knock offs start appearing. Im really just looking for a screen protector for now.

£49 for a case?! Omg. It's 25% of the price of nexus 7 (e.g.).

ROCK HD&AS Screen Protector

Has anyone tried using a screen protector yet? If so, does it affect the behavior of the S Pen at all? Alternatively, has anyone had cause to regret not having a screen protector? I'm hoping to do without...

I got some minor scratches on my Note while using the pen. Not from the pen itself, but from tiny debris on the screen getting caught under the pen tip. If you're gonna go without a screen protector, just make sure the screen/pen tip are clear of any kind of debris.

I went to the Ghost Armor kiosk in the Mall near my house. They don't have an official GN10 screen protector yet so they custom cut one to put on for me, using an iPad screen protector. When they get official GN10 ones in, I'll go back and they will swap it out for no additional charge.
I have had GA on my Rezound, my Thunderbolt, my iPod Touch and my g/f's last 2 iPhones. I really like the stuff. And, to me, the stylus feels like it moves across the screen easier with the GA on than it did on the bare glass. I actually compared the stylus on the bare glass to the stylus on my GA'd Rezound screen before I got the GA on my GN10 - so that I could have a direct A/B comparison.

exactly. this is beyond pathetic.

Replaced just the glass, saved the digi/lcd (With video)

Well I read a lot of places that it couldn't be done. I have successfully replaced just the glass. I recorded it on my Gopro so everyone can see how its done. If you find it useful hit the thanks Make sure you spread this around so people stop buying 300 dollar full LCD assemblies.

Good info. How much was the replacement screen?

hey yellow, does this give us the option of changing the color of the screen then? say i wanted to go from pebble blue to black. i see the black ones available to for sale via ebay. id rather buy a $30 screen and change colors than buy a whole new phone once they become available

That sounds really good. I don't mind my surround being blue, but I do want the screen/soft keys black. I'd have to find a way to make the home button black too. Perhaps paint a white button black with black lexan body paint and swap at the same time.

That's simpler than I was expecting! I was certain there'd be a ribbon connecting the digitizer to the actual LCD. Was there such a thing? Or was it part of the buttons on the bottom?

You can run a very hot shower for awhile then do it in the bathroom with the steam (Makes dust fall to the ground) or I did mine in the basement where there is like 0 dust lol.
Whew that was a lot of responses. Didnt have the thread subbed.

So these screens don't have any plugs? Or cables?

It's a fact. The screen is indestructible. But not the LCD....

Just a warning guys... The screen can take a hell of a beating, but that doesn't mean the LCD can... Ill post a picture later.
Are LCD's really in the hundreds? Is it worth it?

On e4gt? There some what tough but fragile as an egg compared to the Sgs 1 4.0 display screen. Plus this one scratches easy. My sgs 1 took a year of drop test for real. I tried to break it and could not. I tried this phone from 2 ft and shattered. Was going in for Insurance for water damage so had to try

[Pics] Ghost Armor *Updated with back pictures*

Went to my local mall and got Ghost Armor installed on my screen. I've had it on my other devices so I knew what to expect. At first it was a little cloudy but it cleared up in a few hours. Feels nice very smooth and screen clarity is as if it isn't there! I tried to take a few pics. Im no photographer so bare with me lol :highfive:

Didn't get the back done, i was debating covering up the aluminium, but i decided to do it and im on my way to get it done now, ill update it when I get home.

My one X only had white carbon fiber back on it, so I'm curious how it looks. I like the grip it adds.
I don't know if I'll do the screen or not. The screen on the ONE is amazingly fingerprint resistant.

I wonder if their carbon fiber gun metal would cover up the white sufficiently.
