Anyone managed to get the black S View case yet?

Only saw white ones for sale.

Any idea where I can buy the original Samsung black S View case?

Been searching high and low for the past week and only found white. I'm seriously desperate for it. Heck I wouldn't even mind paying slightly higher than the retail price for it.

A small issue I noticed.

Sometimes, my phone doesn't notify me of new Whatsapp messages until I unlocked the screen. The time also only jumps after I've turned the screen on.

Anyone else the same?

You mean after you unlock your phone then only the Whatsapp message coming in?

Yup.

Only happens sometimes. Not all the time.

I had this issue when I first got my Note III and installed WhatsApp.

After I did a factory reset few days ago, and then reinstalled WhasApp, everything seems to be okay. All WhatsApp notifications now work properly when phone is on standby (locked).

Oh man. I've been using this phone long enough to not want to do a factory reset.

Any other solutions?

Did you enable power saving? Sometimes this could caused by Whatsapp server or your connection is off during screen off which sometimes will happened if you enable power saving where the phone cut of wireless radio to save power

Nope it's turned off.

Just went to Samsung Service Center to ask for a replacement for my note 3 back cover that has a small pointy thingy on it. They told me they dont have the spare part and it could cost $$ since the back cover isnt covered by the warranty. Somemore they told me its a small problem and I'm only disappointed by small problem. Felt abit sad though but luckly the girl I ask smile really nice makes me not sad anymore. Oh well, gonna sell my note 3 and buy new 1

Mine has the pointed spots as well. Doesn't affect me, just a minor issue.

No updates on which outlet has stock in hand for the black Samsung S View case?

I can only tell that the Samsung in Empire Shopping Gallery has the white case. I'm still trying to look for the black.

I'd like to test and get a feel of the case first before my purchase, hence I'd prefer to buy it off a shop.

Unless this Superbuy has a physical outlet?

I think someone mentioned having late notification for whatsapp a few pages back. Anyone else too?

I just got home then opened whatsapp....67 messages came in all at the same time....sent about 2 hours ago. Is it Maxis or this Note 3? Hahaha

Yup I'm facing this problem intermittently, not all the time.

If you want to "scrap" the whole page, download this app called Pocket.

Yeah. Really funny right? I regret of not testing it on the spot and brought it home, then could not work. After going back to the Samsung centre, then they mentioned currently it can only work when they are both the same colours.

1 or 2 users in xda and hardwarezone forums also had same issues but they didn't know the reason as well. Only found out today when I tested at the Samsung centre.

Yes, the black cover I was using works perfectly with a black a note III.

Where did you get the black S View case?

Been looking high and low for it.

Just found a bloody long scratch line on my Note 3 screen.

Thank heavens I applied a screen protector.

As far as Android devices go, I went from an S3 to a Note 2 + Nexus 7 and now the Note 3.

The thing I'm impressed most about this phone, aside from its snappy performance and the LTE, is the battery life. I realised that when the phone is on standby mode, the battery level drops really, really slowly. In contrast, my Note 2 could barely last me for 12 hours on a regular day.

Hey guys, just got my black S View case from a fellow forummer.

Would like to ask, with the case on, the Whatsapp pop-up notification when a new message comes in will not work?

First time using a flip case on my phone...

HOW THE HECK DO YOU GUYS TYPE WITH A FLIP CASE?

The only way I can think of is folding the flip all the way back, but the case doesn't look like it can withstand that kinda treatment for long...
