I really like the look of the international galaxy s battery door but have also heard good things about the rubberized battery door. I was wondering if anyone uses either back covers if they could post how they like them so far and some pros and cons since im trying to decide which to buy

From this I'm assuming the Vibrant back cover and i9000 covers are interchangable?

yep. the vibrant and i9000actually share the same accessories as well. except theres slight differences in screen protectors because of the front facing camera, but nothing to major. if you're on eBay, youll find a lot more accessories if you search for "i9000"stuff instead of "vibrant "

Are you sure these are rubberized? I couldn't find anything in any of the descriptions that said they were.

Maybe you should also tell them you were not too impressed with it at first, or give us an update.

it grew on me..it does get dirty on the edges,and dust was in the paint job,but at least i got a refund and get to keep the battery door..so no complaints anymore =)
Pick the Samsung OEM door. These rubberized ones don't snap on as well and stick out on the sides ever so slightly. When I take off my mesh case it gets stuck and tries to take the battery door off completely, and that might result in the loss of power from the battery dropping.
any back covers with kick stands built in
Saw the AT&T Galaxy S2 on the front page and liked the back cover...
Can you actually get one for this I9100 and anybody know where? Can't find one of eBay.

Seems to fit perfectly with what SamMobile is claiming to be the GSIII.
http://www.sammobile.com/2012/05/01/this-is-the-galaxy-siii/
I am so ready for the 3rd!
It seems likely that Samsung is going to launch 2 devices on the 3rd: GSIII with the physical butttons and shaped like GNex (which this screen protector basically confirms), and the i9800 which is the device leaked without physical buttons.

The bottom cutout makes it look like there will be a physical button. :O! Yet it seems to be placed way too far down.
What do you think?
Sorry if this is a double post. Looked around for ten minutes and couldn't find anyone talking about it.

Have you been living under a rock for the past few weeks?
Samsung confirmed the presence of a home button a few weeks back, plus the leaked pics of the S3 already confirm the shape and placement of the home button.

The i9300 doesn't appear to be the S3, as confirmed by the low screen resolution here. I would say the original prediction of Galaxy M i9300 is correct, with the S3 being i9500 and the third device being the N8000 Note 10.1. i9800 seems to have disappeared completely from the equation, replaced by N8000.

Rdf's aren't very reliable. I feel they are just copy and pasted from past models.
Fair call, it would be easy enough to manipulate as well before posting to a blog.

The two devices announced will probably be the Galaxy M and the Galaxy SIII.
Hmm...
does anyone know, what the notch at the top right of the screen protector
could be for? I mean, what could be at that position?
To me it looked like a hole for a stylus at first

For god's sake...it's gorilla glass 2 though you should get something protective for the glossy back cover because it looks like it would get easily scratched.

100000000% worth getting a screen protector
whilst coins and keys might not scratch the screen, little sand grains do, as I found out on my One X!!!

I know that they usually don't include that in us model phones, but it would be a shame because I'm seeing a lot of the apps just attach to things like Samsung Keyboard and extend functionality, or be customized for S Pen. Can someone chime in?
yep

I recommend the Nillken case (just got mines in the mail) from ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140855149689&ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:C:US:3160
it's pretty light and thin, and the rear cover has a dotted texture which makes holding the Note II MUCH easier than just the slippery back cover.
But if you want the Samsung cover, there's a 50% code flying around these forums
So i bought the s-view cover for my s4 mini and i really like it!
Its one accesory i actually think is worth buying for 35 euro's
Only thing i miss about it is the fact that you cant customize the s-view area (yet..)
Anyone else here bought the cover? I would like to hear all your thoughts about it
cheers

ROCK Galaxy S4 mini S-View Flip Cover Folio Case
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This case's cover doesn't stay closed unless placed face-down. Same issue with the manufacturer's hard cover case with flip cover as well.
I bought it from a UK seller off eBay for the equivalent of $50...and I'm returning it. The convenience of the window is far outweighed by the annoyance of having to fold it back to hold it comfortably (and even then, still being uncomfortable for one-handed use) - which also causes it to not stay flat later as a result - as well as the fact that it makes the phone a decent amount thicker/bulkier. IMO flip covers work better for tablets, where the weight of the actual cover keeps it down, and the cover can double as a kickstand.
I ordered two slim snap-on cases in its place, and until then, I'm not having any trouble or worry using it without anything - it's such a joy to hold and keep in my pocket compared to the HTC One I had previously.
I personally am using a Mercury Goosperry flip case. It has a magnetic lock to hold the flip cover down.
They're made by a Korean company and comes in many colour combinations.
Could anyone please tell me if the S View flip cover works for the dual sim version GT-I9192 ?
I have found S View covers on ebay but they only refer to the GT-I9190 and GT-I9195 versions.
They should be the same dimensions but its at your own risk!
Will it make the phone bulky..???

Hi....

I finally bought the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini VIEW Slim Essential case from en.puro.com
and I can confirm that the S View function is working on the S4 mini duos GT-i9192.
Very good quality with good protection as a case.
I am case crazy and I have the S View case along with other cases. The S view area cannot be customized. I also wanted that feature though but that I think is on the LG G2

Please tell if u r facing same problem...i bought a sview cover but not able to recieve call in s-view windows

hey all...
I am looking for a flip cover with sview feature.
I was going to buy the original one but considering that my girlfriend (the owner of the s4 mini) is not really good in taking care of her stuff, i was looking for a way to protect also the back cover.
I mean: is there something like this: http://www.spigen.com/galaxy-s4-case-flip-mate.html but made for s4 mini?
alternatively, has someone tested a reliable flip cover with sview feature that protects also the back of the phone?
Thanks in advance

When you close the case the S-View notification stays on for about 8 seconds then goes to sleep. If you want to see the time you justs squeeze the bottom over the home button then it comes back on. When you open it it goes straight to the home screen. If some one calls it comes on and displays the name.
