Well .. I'll admit its a bit fiddly ;-) ... but needing a vid ?
G.
OK I think I have it now. This is the single worse thing about the phone in my view!
Of course I had to pull the battery due to a crash after only 5 days use!
Oddly it said "updating" on reboot .. but didn't!
ummm.... it'll say that every time you turn it on dear
you slide the bottom third of the cover on and snap the rest of it on, making sure the bottom is sitting nicely then snap the rest on
the verizon cover is pretty trashy. it's like the only of bad quality on the phone. seriously like $.50 of materials.
is the original this crappy? we got the cheapo verizon branding hijacked one. it's so sad, the phone doesn't even say google on it.

The GSM version says google on it, but it is made out of the same material
I actually like it, I have never heard a creak on it like I always did on the Incredible and Thunderbolt.

Who cares what it says?
Yes, the cover is thin. Yes it feels like it's barely made out of anything.
But physically, the thing will never snap on you (not talking about the contact points here).
Don't believe me? Bend the thing a few times, all the way back, end to end. Twist it. It "forms" back into proper shape 100 percent of the time. This is why they marketed it as "hyperskin" Now, I'm sure there is a limit to how much it can bend and return to normal, but tell me what other battery door can you do that with other than the GSII and GNex models, and it won't snap on you?
EDIT: I'll also add that, while some of the GSM versions are looking like they have Samsung made builds and won't be supported in the AOSP, the Verizon model has a Google build and WILL be fully supported in AOSP. Ironic that everyone is complaining about a device for not saying "Google" on the battery cover but is actually more "Google" than some of the unlocked, regional versions.
My battery cover had a crushed clip and made the battery cover lift.
Make sure each individual clip around isn't crushed.

+1 This is THE way to do it -- works every time. If you don't get the bottom tight first, the middle will "push out" and you'll have some play.
Anyone got a good idea for a nice sticker to hide the "SAMSUNG" logo on the back door? I'm ashamed that it's there.
Anything android-ish and horizontal (since it's SAMSUNG and not a vertical word or anything) should be fine
Thanks
The logo can be rubbed off with some sugar.

Your ashamed to have a samsung phone?
First you should ask yourself if you are more ashamed to have a Samsung logo on your phone or a tacky sticker stuck on your premium phone.
Some people have taken to buying skins that cover the whole back. If you just need a small sticker though I think you should probably get some sticker paper to print it yourself so you can get it the right size and right design. Something like the Android logo on a grey background would do.

You use a sugar cube, get one side damp and rub the decal lightly. Iv done it before on my computer but that had a hard black glossy paint. I might try and see how it effects the inside of the battery cover first to see how it looks

The sugar method works best on metal. It may damage the plastic, especially since it is textured plastic. Try at your own risk.
ashamed of the Samsung or Verizon Logo???
not for nothing....
but are you guys are not kidding???
Lol, I thought the "sugar" thing was a joke. Anybody test it on the nexus cover yet? I don't blame you if you haven't, I'm too paranoid to mess mine up.

This did make me laugh to myself. I can only suggest using a craft knife or something of the sort and lightly scraping the branding off at a 45 degree angle. It seems like a rubberized plastic back and I can't see it being too difficult to do, however it's just going to leave a really ugly mark on the back of the phone.
If you've purchased an iPad, it comes with an Apple sticker. You could use that
Kidding aside, you should be able to purchase a new back without the logos or I'm sure you can chemically remove the one on there. Putting a sticking on top will make your $700 phone look like a toy.
A quick look on eBay earlier, all the battery covers seemed to be OEM ones or still had the Samsung logo at least.
If you were going to try and remove the logo, you'd probably be best off buying a spare one off eBay and trying on that instead.
That way if it looked terrible, you could just put up with the original one or still go down the sticker route.

I plan on going with the vinyl route as well, I just cant decide on what picture to use on the back.
If only we had the array of accessories that apple products have - look at what you could have used (maybe you still can).

As always any feedback is more than welcome
Good point someone just made, you can't see the LED for notifications.
Not a major thing for me but it maybe for some people.
It also makes using the camera a bit of a pain. Useful for proping up the phone though.

Hello everyone,
I'm using the flip cover on my S3 and is exactly what i wanted. The only problem is the led being covered, so, i used a tool that i have to make holes on belts to make one on the cover and now is perfect for me.
See the pic below. The cover is very hard, i had to make a lot of "force" to make the hole.

I doubt they will but I think it would increase sales as a lot of people have pointed out the issue. I can't see how they can solve the issue of using the camera though.
Can someone that owns this case answer me this;
Is this cover protective for the screen in a case of a fall? I mean does it "lock" in place over the screen? If you turn it upside down for example, the flip opens?
I believe its the most basic thing that should be answered (if it does not protect the screen its useless) and no one in any review does this simple test.

I got one of these a couple of weeks back for my device. I found it was rather annoying having to hold it at an awkward angle when on the phone. I wish they'd made it flip up or down instead of to the side. It also means you can't hold it very well with your left hand either, as it adds even more width on to the device!
I've switched to a skin thingy now instead, even though it leaves the screen open to damage. I'm still looking to get some kind of plastic cover I can use with the skin I've got though.

Turns out they are backordered. In order to replace it, you need some needlenose pliers to pull the anchor out of the phone part. If you just rip it, you likely won't be able add a new one.

It's also very easy to replace the cover if you just undo the screws on the lower half of the phone and gently lift that part of the back slightly off. Just enough to have the space to fit in your new cover!

I haven't purchased extras yet but I can't see why the eBay ones wouldn't work.
I don't know of videos specifically for this but you can check out videos of basic S4 Active disassembling to see where the screws are etc. It's a very minor job.
Tonight I tried forcing one into place with an eyeglass screwdriver and it worked great, so I guess you don't even have to unscrew the back of the phone! You learn something every day

Wow that's very interesting. I just found that if I push the port in a certain way it closes fully. I shove the right side in all the way and then push up on the part closest to the screen and its very secure.

How long are you guys finding that your cover lasted for before needing to be replaced? I've had mine for over 2 years and I haven't had any problems with it.
Mine lasted for about 2.5 years (was slowly falling off, then ripped) the first branch of covers (same as you can find by the links in the first post) that has gray rubber insert was somewhat defective, it can be ripped easily and not closing securely all the time, so Samsung actually replaces them in service centers, I know guy who took his phone to service with faulty display and they replaced display and cover to one similar to Galaxy S5 with flat white rubber insert. I got new one from service for about 5$ and this is a newer one (same as S5's) and to replace it, you just need to undo bottom screws, then easily with fingernail you can lift up back of the phone just a little bit, and old cover (just a piece of it in my case) will fall off, so you just need to put the new one and put button screws back (decorative, round plastic bits you can take off with needle, there are tiny groove for it).

Can you post some photos of it? I'm wondering what's so much better about the new ones. I've had mine for 2.5 years as well and haven't seen any signs of wear and tear yet.
Well, first of all, the rubber base is secured better on the plastic cover itself so rubber won't gonna rip off as easy (mine riped off from plastic about a year ago, and now rubber itsetf brake) if you happy with yours, thats good because as for me I didn't had another choise. Before installing new cover I took pictures of new and old, here they are.
I know this probably a dead link, but is the port door made of rubber or hard plastic? It seems to be made of hard plastic.

Hey guys
I just got my Note 10+ I think judging by the pictures some Note10+ models have a top alignment defect. It's very hard to see sometimes but can be seen. If you look at the top side where the glass meets the top bezel you will see a gap which looks normal but had a white or grayish line that goes between the glass and frame. I'm not sure it's it's normal or not but it's more visible in daylight or shining a light on it. Check this out
https://imgur.com/a/1Q1wn53
I went out to see if other Note 10+ had these issue and they did some are less noticeable but is still present. I also checked the S10 and Note 9 and does not seem to have this issue
Thought I might share a photo to show you my point. Look at the photo you will see that the white line is visible between the gap on the top. This white line starts from both sides of the ear speaker cutout and runs till just about the corner almost and stops.
I am trying to see if this is a known issue. If others have the same issue. Please comment.
My Note 10+ does not have such a big gap.
I can barley put a piece of paper between the display and the metal frame
Also what you are see is probably the water proofing rubber ring.

Nope not a fake Note 10+ at all. That photo I posted was taken at a Best buy demo that they had standing up. So took the photo of that. And I really zoomed in. That's not mine, but I have the similar problem. And I buy all my phone's from carries and them too they have this issue. You just can't see it cause it's in the small gap on top. I will try to get some more photos of different models including mine. I just posted that one cause it was the best shot as a reference.
Here are two more shots of the same phone posted above at Best buy

You can still see the gap. Left and right side of the ear speaker cutout. When not really zoomed that much.

Could be bent, could be something else.

Nope it's not cause I have the whitedome screen installed. I took of the original one off. I have always had Samsung product and never had issue. Just this and the other model S6 that had an issue of being scratched out of the box. I was the first one to notice this staright out of the box and posted which later escalated being here. And people were noticing. Obviously this is nowhere near the same but was a manufacturing defect. Which I put into motion where I live and eventually they brought that to the attention of the Samsung rep and later had it swapped when they say indeed was a defect and swapped out mine after 5 phones or so later. They needed to bring 5 phones only 1 was perfect after the second batch arrived at the carrier store. It was then all over xda this issue.
Trust me guys I have been using Samsung mobile since the first release. I just want people to tell me if they have this issue too and have the bad units not all to be replaced. Like I said it's hard to see it, but it's present on the carrier demo phones and mine. But later on when I post mine you will see it's there. And I am someone very picky about phones to be perfect. I always buy from carriers. My mistake was I should have maybe bought from the store and examine there. Then to have it shipped. But they didn't have in store so had no choice. Sorry for the long post.
Well, then, you admit that your unit is flawed, but the title of the post sugests that ALL devices are that way, which is not the case

They all have it, it's hard to see it. Some are worst than others. It's still a flaw, since on 5 units I looked at has the same issue. This line can be seen on all units. I checked more today and they all have it. The only difference is some show more gap space then others. People think that the gap space shown are big, when it's not. That has been zoomed in. So yes most have it. I checked today as well 10 of them have it just lesser gap. I don't come on these forums to create things that does not exist. Provide me a close up shot of the top bezel like I mentioned above. You will see it's there. The gap is small when using the phone in a regular position. When looking closer you can see it. So therefore
A) The first batch got this issue which is maybe what is supplied here or what I got that had this issue (first run)
B) The second batch corrected the issue.
That is my conclusions.

Sorry if my title seems misleading, I was just putting the awareness out that the Note 10+ has some screen alignment issues on the top side. I know maybe lots with disagree or maybe might not see it, but I have gotten in touch with the manager at the carrier, and they looking into the issue, them too they see it as an issue. They said, its not a big issue or a big major flaw, but according what the manager said, it does looks like there is a gap and is visible when looking closely. Yes its not a big deal, but if I am putting down more than 1000+ down, I expect the phone to be flawless. If this was a phone that was $200 -$400 I wouldn't careless.
I'm just put the statement out there so that if you guys do have an issue, I can bring that to the attention to Samsung. I do not know if you guys can remember, the S6 did not have a major design flaw too, but what it did have was a manufacturing defect from the company that the phones, straight out of the carries box, was coming all scratched up. After investigation the issue, I once again, got in touch with the manager, which the manager got in touch with the Samsung rep, and sent all the received units that the carrier got, sent back, and the next bunch came out of the factory perfect.
Like I said, I am a big fan of Samsung, I practically have all the models, minus the Note 7. So just putting the word out, like I said before, sorry if the title seems misleading. It has been corrected.
Thread title made me curious. Investigated my N975-F. Damn you,OP.
I know what you mean cause I am seeing it on my device.
Maybe it allows for the glass to expand in hotter/warmer environments and contracting in colder/less warmer.
I don't necessarily think it's a flaw.
Anyway here are 2 pics of my phone.

I'm glad you found what I am talking about ?. At least we have found someone in here that finally understands my point. People in here jump to conclusions without having to do the homework. You can see clearly on yours, you have the same issue as mine.
People told me the Note 10+ shot I posted earlier a fake lol. Yep that's right the best buy put a fake replica Note 10+ functional device.
It's not very visible but to me it is cause I see the little imperfections. Maybe it's a water seal maybe it's the adhesive glue but whatever it maybe it's right between the gap of the glass and frame. Beside the speaker and right before the curve of the glass it stops. Once you see it. It annoys you lol.
I can bet you probably its on all Note 10+ devices. So far I seen it on more than a dozen devices. I dunno how wide spread it is.
