Anyone get the 2012 London Olympics Cover? - Galaxy S III Accessories

Wondering if anyone here go their hands on this cover while at London or online and if so, how you like it on your phone?
I the chance to get my hands on a new cover in the box and unopened - mind you I don't even have an SGS3 (yet).

Kind of funny that the girl in the picture is staring at a flip cover closed over an SG3 screen "How do I see the Internets and how many wifi's does it have?"

LMAO that was funny.... :laugh:

I have 2 of the white flip covers. Unused and boxed. I have a blue s3 so I didn't really want to use them.
If someone has the blue limited edition back cover that came with new phones, I'd be happy to do a swap for one of mine. Send me a pm if you're interested.

i ALMOST got one for free. i was checking out the samsung booth at st. pancras eurostar termianl and the rep started chatting me up. I told him I was looking at the multicolored flip covers they had because they were $50 in the US and he said he would go grab me one of the olympic ones for free since they had them for promo. he disappeared for a few minutes and then came back looking disappointed as they had already given them all out. he said to come back in 2 days but i was already on my way out to france

Unlucky. I still have both of mine, if you'd like to buy one?

[Q]Shattered Screen!

Today was a sad day. I dropped my GNex when taking it out my pocket to get in my vehicle. It dropped faced down from waist height and landed on some rocks/concrete. It took a chip out the glass and shattered in a few places.
Everything still works which is pretty good I guess no problem with the touch screen
I was crushed when I picket it up and fist saw it. I have a silicon case on it and no screen protector.
I hate cases and screen protectors but if I can get this fixed I will probably use both.
My questions is what's my best options here. My brother got me the phone from UK I use it on TMobileUSA. Basically I have no warranty here and wondered if there is someone in the USA that replaces screens or can send me one to do if not majorly complicated.
My brother said Carphone Warehouse will fix it ~£100 but they send it out. Seeing I use my phone alot for work was hoping to be without for minimal amount of time.
Any ideas? thanks

Send it to Samsung. I've read they will replace screens for $160 or so with a two week turn around.

Yup, you will need phone tools too.. Also found online: Amazon, ebay, etc..
Then just search for a "tear down" and follow the instructions.
I had my Galaxy S2 display broken. Took it to a repair center and saw how easily they put in a completely new front! I don't know if it is just as easy with a Nexus, (and offcourse here only replacing the screen applies as the back is made of one piece of plastic) but it might be worth to look?
You can find a display on ebay by searching for: galaxy nexus front display
I know it is expensive, but shopping a bit around the internet might help?
Advantage of doing it yourself is obviously that you don't have to send your phone away and being phoneless

I ended up sending the phone to my brother back in England. Carphone Warehouse fixed it for ~£79.
But I was too impatient and just ordered a new phone before I sent it off. I now have a screen protector and case
Sucks to break the screen as it can break so easily and there is no easy way to get it fixed in the US with the GSM version bought overseas.

Problem?
I'm in 8th grade. Is there a problem Officer?
I am probably getting this one: http://www.amazon.com/Cimo-S-Line-Flexible-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B0087GANO2/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1339706008&sr=8-9&keywords=galaxy+s3+case+silicone
1. WOW, way to ruin a phone. To each their own tho, thanks for sharing.
2. When there is a car mount with charging port, will a case interfere, or can you still plug it in to the dock?

I ordered that one this morning
Snowflake approved this message.
I'll probably just grab a D30 case when they come out. Had one on my GS2 and has held up to being dropped on a daily basis just fine.
SGP CASE available

I got the buy 2 get 1 free Cruzerlite deal. got black, blue and pink:
The screen on this phone will be pretty easy to shatter if dropped on one of the corners. A case that absorbs the impact is optimal. So bumper cases, jellies, and silicone frames are great.
I'm hoping the bf will print me a case.
Ordered these two so far..

is there a credit card/ID case like this for us?

My sister has an iPhone and has a case that holds her ID and credit cards in the back. I like this because even though the folio and wallet ones are nice, I find it to be annoying to have to open it up to use it. I really like this griffin Reveal case but they dont have anything for the S3. Does anyone else make something similar that's nice and slim?

I think he is talking about something a little different.
I got a case kind of like the griffin one from ebay for 2 dollars. It isn't the best fit, but it will hold 3 cards with minimal force and they stay in really well. I searched credit card case galaxy s3 and found it.
if you buy the official smasung mesh case and cut it to your liking i think youd be satisfied with teh results.

This one only fits one card.
Yes! Some great suggestions here. Even the idea of cutting the Samsung case. Thanks!

[Case] Incipio NGP and Sprint Galaxy Nexus 4GLTE

Just came in the mail today.. Ordered off ebay. Thought I'd share a few photos as I am extremely happy with this one. Fits like a glove! Also love the fitted button reliefs; makes the power and volume buttons more precise so they don't get pocket-pushed. Finally, the matte finished Grey and included microfiber cloth and screen protector round off the deal quite nicely. $15.88 w/ free shipping... :screwy:

Hey there.. Here is the link to the ebay Page; http://www.ebay.com/itm/25110164579...NX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_2484wt_758
Or the mobile Site link; http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=251101645796&cmd=VIDESC
Let me know if that doesn't work.. I couldn't find the item on my phone here without logging in so I hope there is no reference to My Ebay in the link. After a little searching it seems as though this item comes in mercury (the color I bought in the picture), black, and magenta pink. You might be able to find it cheaper if you look but no guarantees on the fit if you order from somewhere else.. It seems like there are a few different Incipio models (a feather light one that comes in blue and another one under some fancy chemical name for the material) . My guess is they're all fairly high quality.. I'm definitely not disappointed. This one is TPU, and states specifically for the 4G LTE so I'm not sure about the GSM model, maybe they make one. Obviously I have a Sprint model.. Sorry but I'm just trying to cover my back since the sellers can be real tricky in their descriptions... But, this one is definitely from a USA seller, ships from California, and shipped REAL fast I had it in like 3 days to Wisconsin! Also tracking on the order w/ free shipping scanned via usps when it got here. The company or ebay ID is versio mobile (or versiomobile). ENJOY!
Edit: Sorry, just noticed the item was ended because it's no longer available.. Not sure why? That's probably the reason why I couldn't find it with a search.. Anyway guess that's it! For now anyway...

Got mine today. Best case EVER! If you don't want a thick case this is the case for you. Picked up mine on Amazon for $14.87 shipped.

Official OnePlus Accessories - UK Owners

Afternoon all!
I assume you've all seen the official OnePlus accessories, but does anyone actually own any of them? I was going to get the clear hard shell and just wanted some feedback from any owners

I ordered one, but it's not arrived yet, and from what I've heard, the cover isn't as great as people had hoped. It is apparently very slippery and seems that it could pop off too easily in a fall or drop.
If/when mine arrives, I'll update this post with my own thoughts, but if that's the case, I'm going to start looking for more options.
I'll probably order one anyway as I prefer slim hard shell cases to bulky flip ones
I have ordered the official orange protective case. Should be here soon.
I have the Official flip and hard cases, I prefer the hard case as the cover of the flip case is awkward and blocks the notification light - and the beautiful 5.5" screen!
The hard case is well made and looks great, although the colours look way nicer than the clear (I have a clear and yellow), both seem like they will unclip easily but so far they've stayed on! Haven't dropped it yet :cyclops:
i'm loving it
