Has anyone has this type of cover? What do you guys think of it?? Anyways, went to Samsung OU and saw the SCover N3 for 299!!!! Damn.... talk about overpriced hahah.. want more thing, don't know about you guys but, i feel the charging using the original note3 charger takes ages!!! Using my previous ipad charger with 5amp output really provides blazing fast charge. Appreciate comments and experience with this.

i tried out the cover you mentioned putting up the cover makes the phone's screen so not sensitive

charging circuit on the Note 3 will prevent the device from overcharging the battery.
Pretty common circuitry in all electronic devices with charging capabilities.

nono, making sure it's always at 100% is the right thing to do. There's research to prove this, it should be in page 1
phew thank god i no problem yet
bad back plate = none
bad screen = i checked and checked, screen is clean and nice
bad camere= raster lines when low light GOT, red tint NONE
bad button = all button working perfectly
sudden death = hoping this will not happen  hmm.gif

can share? smile.gif

QUOTE(destEX @ Sep 29 2013, 10:38 AM)
hey i notice note I battery a lot people pregnant, they all also charge overnight, but my father who stops once 100% and never charge overnight never happen, this only happens with note I, my S2 charge overnight for 2 years already still okay
*

Ah....ipong refugee....welcome bro.

Liberate yourself from the mindset that you must protect your home button from wearing out and getting charged an arm and a leg for a button because crapple engineered it perfectly to wear out after 1 year of pressing.

There have been NO reports of worn out home buttons on Samsungs AFAIK.

destEX as a longtime s2 user, how is your home button after 2 years?

after 2 years my button still very functional and seems brand new with the normal tak tak sound also when u press, no problem at all. But this is because i'm a custom rom user, during ICS i use PA tablet mode so have on screen nav, in JB i use PIE to control.

I have a friend whose home button spoiled, but that because he play a game that needs to press it like crazy.
yes that's what the difficult to read alien language article means

somehow i also found that if i charge using wall plug and usb.
USB charge makes the batt life longer or this is just my psychology effect icon_question.gif

wall plug and usb? you mean our standard normal charger? or you mean charge via usb using  the laptop?

i do know usb charging from laptop is slower than direct charging, maybe slower charge = better capacity
android devs come up with stuffs like HALO, PIE, auto hide nav bars, imo those are way better but not available yet yawn.gif . Maybe because i read a lot using my device, so i like it as clean as possible  biggrin.gif

Wall usb charger vs computer usb charger i think computer charger is better

Coming from my S3, my power button did wear out, giving the phone an auto reboot feature every time the power button is accidentally touched. Occurred right after warranty. It will go into a boot loop and I have to press continuously on the power button to get it out of the boot loop and eventually the OS starts.

One reason why i gave up on my S3 and give it back to my company tongue.gif Hopefully the Note 3 is better built.

for power button i not so concern i more concern about the volume button as kept pressing it when listen to call sometime you need to volume louder and sometimes not
