I need to replace my S3 and really want to get the 46mm Galaxy. Only problem is, I hate the silver/black. I see the skins/cases on Amazon that get good reviews but has anyone here tried one? I don't want the 42mm because of the smaller batter so changing the color if the 46mm is my only option for a black 46mm.

Thanks, they posted a pretty good pic also. I should have searched Reddit but I don't like it that much and rarely go there.

I'm looking for a good book/diary/wallet style case for my new T-Mobile Galaxy SII. Something like the BookBook case for the iPhone:
http://twelvesouth.com/products/bookbook_iphone/
or this case for the international Galaxy SII:
http://www.bizwinkorea.com/tablet-p...ine-leather-diary-wallet-type-case-cover.html
I'd kinda want it to look like a leatherbound book, but that's not as important as it actually being leather. I do want it to have pockets opposite where the phone sits to hold money, cards, etc.
Anyone seen anything like this?
None? Nobody's seen anything like this?
Honestly bro I looked high and low for a case like this and it just isn't out yet. There's an OEM product called "Samsung d30 t989 leather slip cover" coming out sometime in the next few months that can be found with Google if you search the quoted phrase. The one case I found like what your asking turned out to be an incompetent eBay seller labeling **** for the international gs2 like it would work for ours.

eeeewwwwww.......
i don't like those cases, yes, they have their good uses, but... not my type
i can see many scenario and situation when & where i might want to use one, but it's not worth the cost
just search for something similar, you don't need an exact fit for those type of cases, look for another phone with similar size spec, and find it
any updates on this case?
bump for great justice. i really like the twelve south case
I've been looking at this
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=34089
just ordered it few days ago waiting for it to show up
---------- Post added at 10:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 AM ----------
dont buy for talkietech or wirless age or something like that, they both dicked me around for two weeks and told me not in stock, there is a guy on ebay from hong kong that has stich color options for pd case, but i got the original from the website above
I ordered a "black Napa leather case" off Amazon. Nice quality but so thick it could hold 2 sgs2's and way too wide. Clearly not made for our phone.

This case is exactly what I want but it's only for iPhone and the measurements don't match.... our phones are too wide
I've been searching for the same thing. I found this one and I really like it. Although the camera and speaker holes are wrong. Might get it and try it out anyway..

The picture shows an iPhone but the description says it's for a galaxy s2. It's a bit on the pricey end and I'm not sure about the quality since it's not a genuine Twelve South. But they sold 12 of these so far without negative feedback.

I guess, given that there's no hole on the back for camera or speakers, it should work just fine. I don't know how much different our phone is from the original GS2.
Still, at $40, I guess I'd like to hear from someone who has my phone and has bought the case.
I emailed the seller and asked for some pics of the actual item. I'm sure it's an i9100, but here ya go. Looks nice none the less. I may pick one up.
I axially bought one of these and I really like it. It doesn't line up with the holes for the touch buttons perfectly, but my x-acto took care of that easily. Seems to be pretty good quality. I've been using it for about a month.
Any one knows where I can find a cover like this:
http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-flip-covers-come-bundled-time-holiday-season
Most of what I have seen for Galaxy Nexus look like wallets with a magnet/button to hold the cover giving it too much of a wallet look which I hate, personally.
So I'm wondering if is there anything like this for Galaxy Nexus. (black, would be great).
What about this one?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/261034840373?redirect=mobile
Hey, dbolot1 Thanks for the suggestion.
The thing is it's a vertical flip (for lack of a better term). What I am really looking for is a clone of the GSIII cover on the original post.
the best match i've found was this, sadly there's no black version of it: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Roc...322099?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27c99e57b3
It has already been discussed here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863118
Just curious if our T-Mobile S4 has a different battery cover?
It seems more silver/light blue to me compared to photos, similar to the Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant. Thanks!
I don't have this answer, but was asking myself this when I got mine. It doesn't seem as "black" as the one I thought I saw. Best way to find out is to go to AT&T or Best Buy and compare. Which, I might do.
At first I didn't like it because it showed the pattern too much, but now I'm kind of used to it. Plus, when my Spigen case comes, it won't matter.
I bought an Anker battery a week ago and it just arrived. I'm trying to fit it in and it doesn't fit at all. It is too wide and the bottom sections don't align properly.
I got it from Amazon and I'm sure its a genuine battery because of that.
I just can't believe it doesn't fit. Has this happened to anybody else?
I'm extremely disappointed with this. I was planning on upgrading to an S5 in a few months and figured I'd probably buy a new Anker battey with it but I can't believe this one doesn't even fit my phone.
I've included pictures:
http://imgur.com/a/eXOCH
I think it's because it's 4400mAh, stock battery is 2100 so that one's going to be significantly larger. I'm pretty sure at that size they're supposed to come with a case that can house the battery with the phone.
Its definitely supposed to be bigger than the default battery but I checked videos online, it is supposed to snap into place just like the old battery. Extended batteries fit the same space but stick out farther so you need to use the provided case.
This battery DOES NOT line up with the phone along the bottom edge. It just doesn't. From Youtube videos, the batteries other people have line up and snap in. Because it doesn't actually fit into the battery slot, I can't even use the provided case.
It is very messed up and I'm just in disbelief because I can't find any record of any other person online with the same problem.
Contact Anker. I've heard their support is very good. It looks like you got a note 3 or galaxy S4 battery accidentally.

I wrote them an e-mail tonight after I posted this in the forum.
I just wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy and doing something wrong, also wanted to know if anybody else ever had this issue because I can't find any record of that online.

Looks to me like a case of a mis-labeled item. I ordered the same battery about a year and a half ago and all was fine. Im sure Anker will sort it out for you, they have a great support staff.
Well no e-mail response unfortunately.
Going to have to call them.
Email support is unbelievably slow.
Takes more than 1 full day to get a response, takes like 2 full days just to have them ask me a question and for me to respond.
Just forgot about this thread and wanted to update.
Anker was nice over e-mail and gave me the option of a replacement or a refund.
I chose a full refund because I was planning on upgrading to a Galaxy S5 anyway which I now have.
So AT&T has a promotion right now, if I get the Nexus 6, I can get $100 off of this watch. I have wanted a smart watch for a while, but was leaning more towards the Samsung series (smaller version sorry don't remember the exact name lol). However to be able to get this watch with more features for the same price, I may be getting it instead. That being said I have a few questions.
I am currently a fitbit wearer, I have the cheapest version without a watch etc. I love my fitbit because it tracks my steps and I am able to plug in my workout info into the Android app on my S5. Does this watch come with a pedometer? I saw a thread about an app called "cinch" that can be used with the watch to track heart rate etc. That seems cool too. Just wondering if there's anything built in like the Samsung watches have.
What band do you suggest? I am a female with very tiny wrists and hands. My fitbit is the smaller band set on the second to smallest setting. I tried on the black leather band on display at AT&T last week, and it seemed to fit OK.
How is everyone's overall experience with the watch? Does rooting open up a lot of other features like it does with the phones?
Also how well does the watch sync with your phone?
I just figured I'd put some questions out there, it seems like the reps at AT&T are hit or miss... some know a lot of info on stuff and others are clueless. Plus they want a sale...

The 360 has a built in pedometer and optical heart rate sensor. I'm running it with a Galaxy S5 and carry a fitbit zip so to be honest, I have the 360 set to not provide me info from its built in sensors. Between the fitbit which I have synced to my MyFitnessPal app, my phone's pedometer, and the 360's, I got tired of seeing 3 different step counts so I decided to use the fitbit as my primary step counter and don't use the others but they're there on the 360.
I wear my watch pretty much every day but for times I'm planning to do physical activity - exercise, yard work, helping a friend move, etc. I usually fall back to a Casio sport watch. I love the 360 - still pretty novel and allows me to keep my phone in my pocket most of the day at work but I'm still too afraid I might break it if I put it through the rigors I put my traditional watches through. There's a long thread in the forum dealing specifically with aftermarket watch bands. It seems like a few more options are popping up for men - I don't know about women's sizes.
My phone is usually rooted but I haven't jumped into it on the 360. Anything that requires device disassembly to root is usually past my threshold for that kind of thing. Doesn't look like there's been a lot of dev just yet anyway.
Watch syncs seamlessly with my GS5. No problems to speak of. I often walk away from my phone and I have "Find My Phone" installed which gives me a notification when I leave it behind. Coming back into range, it re-pairs itself almost instantly. A few glitches have shown up for folks after OTA updates that might require you to have to re-sync. For me, since picking up the watch in December, we're talking about having to do that once - after my GS5 took Lollipop.
All in all regarding style, it's my daily "office and out" watch of choice. Regarding functionality, it's more novel than functional - at least for me. Regarding durability, I haven't really pushed it - it is after all a $250 watch. I would absolutely buy one again.
Hope this helps.
Thank you it does. I did a quick search on Amazon for bands and see some out there that are more feminine, but they do look cheaply made. Not sure I want to pair a cheap band with a $250 watch LOL. I might just get the black leather for now, and if something else comes along that I like (i.e. green!) I'll purchase it down the road. I'm looking to replace the fitbit with the watch (I wonder if they'll take it in on trade LOL) I work in an office so I'm not concerned with damaging it.

Dodocase makes a leather band specifically for the moto 360. Comes in several colors. I believe green is one of the colors. They are expensive but the leather looks nice. Just search Google for them. I believe moto may even have them on their website.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Free mobile app
The green one is very nice I could only find it on moto's site, dodcase's website only had cell phone & tablet cases. They also have a thinner metal band that looks more feminine on their site available if you order the watch directly through them. IDK if it'll be available at the AT&T store though. Guess I'll find out tomorrow or Sunday when I go in! Thank you for all your help!!
Best Buy also has the slim metal bands but that doesn't really help you with the At&T promotion unless they will match it.
