Has anyone tried part-swapping the Samsung Flip Cover? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

I was looking at my flip cover today thinking "damn, wouldn't it be cool if I could part swap the orange flip with a gray one so I retain a totally gray note 2 with just an orange flip" then I started checking out my flip cover

and noticed on the inside it looks like you can detach the flip cover from the back plate so obviously I'm curios if anyone has attempted or maybe will attempt to do this. If you have or think you can then post here and let me know. Because if this is possible them I am going to buy a gray or white flip cover and part swap it with my orange one.
Thanks in advance guys.

So no one knows if you can do this? Surely some has tried it or has the 4pack of flip covers and doesn't use two of them.

To answer yes you can...... additionally you can paint(tint) the cover with vinyl paint to any color but it has to compatible paint or it will scratch off

Alright. Thanks. I was planning on using plasti-dip spray on stuff until I can buy another flip cover and use it to part swap.

I would assume you've done this (breaking them apart without breaking anything). Can you provide any pointers to help? My clumsy self would likely end up with 8 pieces, 2 extra screws, and a random allen wrench.

I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question

[Q] Plusface 1/2 Piece cases

What do you think about them? Any reviews?
In my opinion, the kickstand on the 2nd case doesn't look very steady...
dont really like the looks of it to be fair , the top is open as is the bottom if you drop your phone the case wont protect the silver trim there so in terms of a case for protection it fails . In terms of a case that looks good i think it fails as well , it looks quite cheap to me .
Everyone is different though and cases are personal so many may think different to what i say
why not grab one and write a review for other users go on take the plunge lol
I really like it! Looks good and doesn't add bulk but still has a stand, been trying to look for something like that. Just need to know if anyone else has it and provide a review in terms of fit and sturdiness...lol

I'm bad at writing reviews
Maybe one of the reviewers from here could request a case for reviewing?

Which one did you buy?
Can you please post a review when you receive it?
I have ordered a black 2 piece case 5 days ago, so it should arrive in about 9 days.
The only reason i want a case is for the kickstand, the rest doesn't matter. Currently I'm using a cheap silicone/tpu case with a kickstand build in from ebay which is ugly and thick, I expect this one to be slimmer and atleast in one color.
I ordered white

no, it's not silicon, it's hard cover
It is just plastic or is it refined with a thin rubber sheer?
this case type just like the official hard case from LG : CCH-100
I got it for free, bonus while purchasing my O1 White
you know, it also can be a screenguard case
just put it on the screenside instead of on the backside, then you won't be worried slipping the phone into your jeans pocket and the screen got scratched by coins inside
I and my girlfriend the same phones. I bought 2 case on ebay for $3 each. On her phone cover sits snugly. On my pressing on the sides it squeaks.
Case protects the phone well. Matte white surface cover in two weeks was dirty.
dude from where did you bought this cover in delhi.....

Like my lock screen? Lol...​I have had it four days, and it feels great in hand and slides easily in my pocket (from Jeans to Gym shorts)!
I haven't dropped it yet but all four corners are completely double covered and I expect there would be ZERO damage if I do drop it...
They come in Black, White, Green, Pink, Purple or Red...
I think it is WELL worth the $20-$25 for it, and it looks BAD ASS!
Wow that does look pretty nice. Thanks for sharing, think I might order me one. Does that spine looking accessory snap on and off?

It looks very nice. Thanks for your contribution .
Don't mean to rez a old thread but just got this case today in red and black and its awesome. Only complaint is the lip goes up over the edges a little bit.

Any thoughts on the raised/textured back? I'm looking at this compared to the flat one such as: http://www.amazon.com/Titanium-Black-Fishbone-Protector-SAMSUNG/dp/B006IZBKCS/ref=pd_bxgy_cps_img_c
Wondering if the textured back would feel good in my hand...

For me, the back isn't really textured or rough, just raised above the rubber inlet. It feels really good in hand, but I think the pricing on the smooth backed one is alot nicer!
Let me know if you have anymore questions...

[TRIDEA] ALLKE SF Coating case ROCKS!

The ALLKE case from TRIDEA was delivered to me 2 days back after waiting for more than a month. I must say that the wait has been worth it.
I won't be able to link to the images so I am directly attaching them with this post.
What I like about the case :
The case fits very well and feels nice and rubbery. The design on the back increases the grip and you just don't feel like leaving the phone. It's very light and it's weight is negligible. The cutouts for the power and volume keys are perfect. All in all, its an ergonomic case that will provide excellent protection from a drop.
What I don't like about the case :
It doesn't protect the top and the bottom completely.
*I am starting to like this since it does not interfere with the outlets for the power supply or the headphone jack.
Please don't forget to hit the thanks button if this post has been helpful for you!
Do you have any photos of your phone with the case on?

Thanks for the review, I've been interested in the green on since before the s3 was released. Shame about the top and bottom though
Wow. I love the back. I think i might have to grab one. Thanks for sharing.
I have a doubt. Is this cover compatible with the screen protector from TRIDEA?
wish they had it in white with black text
Just received mine....
fast postage by the korean seller...posted on 15/10/2012 and received today in Malaysia.
It a pretty good case

I have posted pics as attachments. The only difference between the two posts is the color of the case.
I can confirm the cover is compatible with the screen protector, also from TRIDEA.

Best horizontal mode stand/dock

I've trawled ebay and seen the cheap kickstand cases but they don't really appeal to me.
. I've also seen the docks on there.
I like the quality look of the Samsung desktop dock but it doesn't look like it will take the phone in horizontal, or with a slim case either.
What are ur thoughts?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
have you seen the microsoft surface? the rear has a built in kickstand. I hope ss do it with future products too, even the mobiles. I wonder if anyone out there has made back replacements for the S3 that comes with a build in kickstand, something as thing or close to the orginal back (replacing piece that covers battery).
not a cover, I don't want a cover, I like no cover for the slimness :>:>

Great idea.
I was thinking more of a dock type idea that u could use in horizontal mode with a slim case on. I bought a case with a kickstand already but the kickstand is rather flimsy and the case is a very bulky 3 pce design. (the tough /armor case all over ebay).
