Hey guys...got the PhantomSkin Chromatic kit in the mail today and decided to install it this morning. The package was very impressive. Included was the Chromatic kit and 2 free screen savers. I was currently using the black OEM gel case with the dinky screen protector. I first put on the screen protector follwing the instructions given. The install was a breeze! Coming from a ZAGG shield, I was very impressed with this screen protector. The screen was clear with little to minimal orange peel! I then started with the Chromatic Install. The battery cover went on smooth. The next thing I did was the camera part. I noticed even though I was pressing down hard and hitting it with the dryer, the sides would pop up! The MT4G has alot of rounded corners so this really concerned me. I went ahead with the bottom part and the sides. Nothing was holding, I dont know if it was the weather or what...I started peeling it off to return the product but decided to look read up here alittle bit. Thanks to member "methodz" who installed this also, I found a new way to install it. I just put on piece by piece, but instead of using the dryer, he recommended a lighter!!! After hearing this, the install was cake..everything stuck on like a glove. I dont recommend this product unless you have the black version as there are many gaps! I love the CF look and it feels great, I am going to keep this setup and match it with the OEM holster till a Otterbox series comes out. Sorry for the big pics, but I wanted everyone to see the detail and the gaps. Hope this helps anybody who was thinking of installing this kit! On to the pics!!!

FYI: I aligned the battery cover after these pictures were taken.
SET #2
Man that looks good.Also looks like a lot of work to get perfectly lined up and stuck down.How much was that?
I'm gonna make out resident screen protector application expert put mine on! It should be here soon

the back of my phone looks like that, but i didn't use the side pieces, just the 3 main pieces on the back.
That looks really good, but I don't think I'd have the patience to line all those pieces up perfectly. What's it going to be like when/if you ever decide to remove them off the phone?
I checked out that site after getting my MT4G, and can't you choose what design you want for your phone? It didn't even show a picture of what it would look like after selecting the one for the MT4G.
Nice photos BTW!

It looks difficult but really easy. It was easy to align. The kit cost $29.99 but there is a 30% off coupon on their site. You get the Chromatic kit plus two free screen protectors for $20.96 shipped to your door!

Thanks! I used by DSLR and bounced the flash so you can get an idea of the CF pattern and tried to get as much detail as possible. The install was easy bro! Also I peeled off some of the stuff i slightly heated and it came off without residue!
Looks good, but it would concern me that the silver bezel is still exposed to possible scratching/damage in the event of a drop. Is there any way to protect that with a skinz type of system like this?
Also, you were able to peel off some without residue, but does anyone have experience trying to get this kind of thing off after a few months?

Just get close to the parts that arent sticking well and run it back and forth maybe like 3 timess to give it a little heat. Dont let the flame touch the CF. Get your thumb afterwards and stroke it into place LOL! GL on the install!
Geezz....I already messed up the screen shield.....DUNNO this instruction says soap, but id doesn't workout....
I see kinda wave-y pattern....is it normal?
Ain't for me this job...I'm pissed now
PS: redid it, look ok now, not perfect job though......Scared to apply the CF skin.
yes, this phone has a lot curve, Even Zagg was hard to put on the phone. but I manage to get zagg stick in to the phone now.
If it doesn't work, I can send it back for replacement. I hope you guy can send your Phantom skinz back too if you mess it up.

haha, i guess i'm daring... i stuck the skin on first and lit the actual CF areas. just don't light it for too long or you can damage something, just a split second or a few passes. you will find some of the skin doesn't stick too well if it is cold out so you will have to heat it. the instructions say use a blow dryer but i used a lighter instead.
I did it! And actually I am very impressed with my results on CF skin! Was easy and trick with the lighter worked fantastic! Very pleased! Looks and feels great!
Thank you guyz!
Looks nice! I would warn people you will feel the edges of the skin when you hold the phone. I used that on an iPhone and removed it after getting tired of feeling the edges of the skin.

Neah, I barely feel anything. It really depends, I guess, on the shape of the phone. Maybe iPhone is not well suited for this, but mine feels smooth and nice.
I warmed up really well the edges with the lighter when I applied the skin, so it set tight.

Just a note for others: the screen protector will show artifacts and other random blobs that may look like smudges when its fresh. This should go away within 48 hours as it completely dries. Just relax and be patient, the world wasn't built in a day.
AFAIK all of these types of protectors (zagg, bse, ps)recommend putting the phone down for 24hrs after application.... to ensure it sticks, and to allow the solution to dry

As soon as you squeeze out most of the water it will work fine for usage. At least with the phantom skinz.

After paying £20 for this I was excited for it to arrive. I shouldn't have been. Positives are it fits well. That's about it. It is so awkward to get the phone in and out I actually don't think I will use it as I feel more likely to drop it now! Also, I expected it to keep the screen clean but it comes out still dirty and finger prints all over it still. I still have to clean the screen with the outside of the fit bag as the inside doesn't seem to clean the screen when pulled out. When I put my phone in top first I lost signal so have to put it in bottom first, I presume the antenna is at the top?
Very disappointed.

Sorry, see what you said now. Strange that as if I put upside down in case I lose wifi and better signal to been top facing up! Would have thought it would have been the other way round if antenna is at the bottom.

yea, I agree that's weird. Plus I don't see how alcantara can cause any kind of interference.
Curiously, how are you verifying this?
I should be getting mine by the end of the week (ordered last week), I'll let you know if mine suffers from the same issue
To be fair, its a very untechnical observation, just by my battery stats screen. Also, I always have a bad signal at work and was suffering with the volume bug and 2g/3g reception problem so it could also be something to do with this as I only got the update last night.
With reference to the fitbag I have found after half a days use, the phone goes in and out much easier when putting the top in first and leaving the fatter end facing out. The case has slackened off a little and is better now. It does clean the screen a little but doesn't clean finger prints.

Since the "fat end" is the one that has the USB, headphone jack, antenna, and speakers, it wouldn't make sense to insert it any other way, really...
Anyway, I'm interested in getting this pouch as well, so please do let us know what you think after a few more days use
Here's some pics of my pure suede one. I'm liking it so far. Seems to have a fair amount of give to get it in and out, but is tight enough that it doesn't slide out by itself.
BTW pics taken with my Nexus, and the flash makes the white dust light up, a bit like a UV light does in a night club! Normally it looks black and you can't see all that dust.
really can't belive that some leather is the problem of your signal loss.
if the singnal is so poor that you loss it with a case, you can't complain the case for it.

Mine fits perfectly. The end of the phone ends just halfway into the lip right at the end of the case - the bit where the leather is folder over underneath and double thickness.
Maybe you were sent the wrong one? I'm sure if you email them they might just send you another one and let you keep that one.
I was watching a YouTube video the other day and it was a review on the Flygrip and it looked pretty cool. I was wondering if anyone has used a Flygrip before and if it was worth the $30

I'm waiting for mine to arrive at the doorstep. Will update upon receipt.

This could be useful for me. I'm starting to get a little RSI in my right thumb. This looks like it would support it.
I have had the flygrip for ~6 months. I really like it.
lt broke the other day. I emailed the Flygrip folks and they said it was due to a design flaw. They sent me a new one with the new revised design. Free of charge.
It is really useful. Helps to have a secure hold on your device. And also doubles as a landscape kickstand. Because the galaxy note is so big, the device will not stand in portrait with the kickstand. It just topples over.
It folds flat. Fairily flat. Only 7-8mm.
Mine just came in today I suggest if you get one use some duct tape (or another type of tape) to stick it in back. That way you can get a better feel for where you want it and don't waste one sticky.
Cause that's what I just did.
But other than that it's comfortable, quick to open, and once you stick your fingers in it a few times (heehee) it becomes very nice!
I don't use a case (even though they offer a free one for my phone) So it's nice to have a better hold on my phone.
I'm going to buy another one in a few months for my friends.

Hello, I noticed that you may want a kickstand that will help stand your Galaxy Note better. I have developed one that might be just the ticket for you - although not designed as a grip, with the blade open, it can be used to give yourself a better grip - see this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208873

Take a short strip of packing tape and fold over one end so that you have something to grip if you want to take it off - it will have less adhesive goo on your device to clean off - that's what I did when I was first testing correct placement on my kickstand4u tm

It's hard to hold in bed, I use my kickstand4u tm like a flygrip, but I find my arm gets tired holding my GS3 like that, which is pretty lightweight let alone trying to hold my Samsung Tab 7.0 Plus over my head for that long, I know I would still drop it on my face and with the weight of my arm attached, I'd probably knock myself out LOL!
You just got to either have a strong arm to hold in that position for a long time or set it on a bedside nightstand and do the reading that way.
So using a kickstand that was designed for all mobile devices as a true kickstand rather than a flygrip that can be used as a kickstand for small devices like a phone, this might help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087034

I prefer the flygrip because i use it for the one handed solution mostly, and for the issues with portrait orientation, flygrip made a Gravity model designed for devices that are big. its on my note2 WITH the Otterbox Defender case. so far its wonderful, but i do like the idea of the kickstand4u.
Hi fellow XDA roamers,
As promised, I'll be doing a quick review of the Ringke - Fusion (Smoke Black) for Sony Xperia Z3 Compact smartphone.
Here's the Amazon page : Fusion (Smoke Black)
And here's the official website (thanks to @sh4d0wf0x) : Rearth - Ringke Fusion
For some reason, I can't find any official website, not that I need one but sometimes it can help to make sure the product isn't coming from some cheap company.
After my desastrous experience with the CaseMate - Tough Case I was quite impatient to get this case, I even ordered it the morning I got the CaseMate.
I got it for a whopping 13 euros (there was a nice sale on it) instead of 30 and I received it in less than 4 days, another end of the year miracle !
Unboxing
When you receive this case, you know that your cash didn't went to the packaging, a simple translucent plastic bag with a pre-cut opening
The little bag contains the most basic accessories :
The case
A screen protector
A case template for cutting your own back image for the case
Yup, that's it... But who needs extras nowadays ?
At least everything is looking sharp and durable, this time the case fits perfectly the smartphone and doesn't leave any gaps.
It feels secure and looks nice altogether, I must say that this case is quite simple but does its job perfectly.
I haven't dropped my phone since then but I do think it will come unscathed.
A nice addition are little bumps on the back side of the case at each corners, so when the phone is placed on the back, the whole case isn't touching the surface and they're about 1 mm tall so they won't interfere with your hand.
As for the users who are wondering about the little USB hatch, it's still very easy to open (I don't have long nails) it and plug the power cord.
The only things that are going the wrong way are the back of the case that "stick" to the phone, sometimes you can see small succion marks but they can be removed with a simple pressure on the side of the case, and the other thing is that it attracts a lot of fingerprints... like a lot of cases...
The screen protections is like any other, nothing particulars about it, it's cut out for the speakers and led and it's mostly an expected thing from a phone case package.
Let's do a roundup !
The pros
Simple but still looks tough
Bumper protection has a nice rubber feel
Covers all the buttons and offer a little rubber cover for the headphone jack
Small bumps on the back
The cons
Small succion marks from the back of the case, the back of the case tends to suck to the back of the phone
Attracts fingerprints, grease marks & dust
Verdict
All in all, this case is living up to my expectations, looks simple but you can feel that the phone is protected and every little additions are welcome and useful.
This case clearly wipe away the bad taste that CaseMate left in my mouth, can't wait to receive the Orzly tempered glass to check if it all works together

Too bad for the dock
As for buying it, I can't give your an objective feedback since it's my first Android phone ever but from my experience and the research I've done before jumping in, it's one of the best phone for this kind of size.
This little monster is compact, fast like it's bigger brother and even better looking than him. As for the Sony bloatwares, there are like 10 apps pre-installed, I'm not using most of them but they're not threatening my experience so it's ok for me.
For the custom ROM scarceness, it's linked with the DRM removal associated with unlocking the bootloader. As developers unlock more and more functionalities, more ROM will become available. If you want more informations about that, feel free to look around the General section of the forums.
I'm not very fond of custom ROM (I'm new to this) so for now I'll stick with the stock one.
Buying this phone is more of a love @ first sight and personal tastes, so it's mainly up to you to decide whether you will throw your cash at the screen or not.
Thanks for the insight.
Yeah it'd be my 6th Android phone, with my first being the very first Android phone (HTC Dream).
I've pretty much always used a custom rom with the exception of using rooted stock on the Nexus 5.
The hardware is what appealed to me as well, but it doesn't seem like the software is going to cut it just yet. S:
Just made friendship with my phone and before I bought it i ordered this case. Hope it will arrive soon so I can hopefully agree with your review.

Sorry I'm still using the USB cable to charge it but I've already made my mind to buy the Magnector X2 magnetic charger when I have the money, maybe later this year.
I bought both the Ringke and the Cruizerlite. I wanted to like the Ringke, but the left side along the charging port and the sd card port is just way to loose. I can't help but think it would even get looser over time and use. My phone wears the Cruizerlite and I'm very happy with it. The only thing I would change about the Cruizerlite is to make a version with a plain back on it.

Thanks for the insight, it's true that the left side is loose, but I'm not really complaining since I only manipulate this side when I need to plug the USB cable.
For now the Ringke is more than enough for me, the Cruzerlite seems a little bit flimsy for me and the way it blocks the USB section is bothering me. Maybe when I'll have a magnetic charger I will try this one.
I probably should have mentioned that I use the magnetic desk charger and I pair my phone with my PC over WiFi for any transfers, therefore I have no need to access the usb port.

Its the best phone I have owned and the ONLY android phone that I haven't rooted. There is no need.
Sony Skin is VERY minimal and I like the Sony Apps including the Walkman and Album. Nova launcher and a Lollipop Theme (Via Sony's own theming engine) has produced a phone I have ZERO complaints with.
Also the battery really is epic, I use stamina mode and have full sync of gmail, exchange, messenger, whatsapp, the lot and easily leave work with 70-75%
My only complaint like others have is the camera, normal lights its fantastic but low light over cameras beat it.
Trust me this is a great phone. And Lollipop is coming next month.
Seriously just buy one.

Yes I agree
Bought it also. Not bad, but bulkier than the regular ice view, and the cover detaches much too easily in my opinion. And, no big deal, but the colors don't match my red 10 one bit...
The cover detached what do you mean you can remove the front cover and keep the back shell. Do you prefer original

I mean the front cover goes off with no effort, it's too easy to remove from the shell. I don't feel too confident in it.

Cheers out my video review of the must have case for anyone with a HTC 10 the HTC Klik is an official case made by HTC, enjoy the video, just click the link below,
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I just noticed this on htc.com today- I hadn't seen it before. Two things:
HTC needs to make their cases more known to the customer. HTC should include a case when purchasing the 10, or at least put a small insert in the box so the customer is aware they even exist!
Secondly, this case is very interesting. I would like to see other innovative attachments. I'm not sure what they would be right off. I don't personally need or use a stand other than when I'm at work at work for my desk. I would like to hear others' ideas for additional modules.
Interesting fact. I ordered this from Amazon, but before I received it, someone else also bought it for me, as a gift. The one I got as a gift works perfectly.
Today I got the one from Amazon, which I opened because I was planning on selling it to someone else, since I don't need two cases.
But this Klik case does not work properly, in the sense that the Ice View interface does not show up. It does light up the display and turn off, when you uncover/cover the display, but the double tap to wake does not work. I'll be returning the case to Amazon.
Has anyone else had issues with the IceView / Klik case?
Very weird. The only element that triggers the ice view interface and what goes along with it is the magnet in the round badge. It should work just the same, no matter which magnet sits on the screen... It even works with a fridge magnet.
Is this case light weight

I weights about 45 grams, just like the first Ice View. Not the lightest around, but nothing dramatic.
i might just keep my phonenaked for now
