Spigen items often taxed if sent out directly by them. Maybe custom more sensitive to them. Buy from indirect suppliers to avoid tax

A funny ( but very true scenario) video of the type of questions newbies asked about flashing and worse they get offended when they could not get the help they wanted. I picked this up at S3 thread

My motion screenshot also not working. You try press home button and power button together

Hold your palm up vertically "karate" style. And touching the display slightly all the time, just swipe your palm across the display. It is the easiest and fastest way to take screenshot and no reason why it won't work

Before that , make sure at Settings/Controls/palm Motion is selected and tap it to ensure Capture Screen is selected too

I received my S View case from superbuy.com just now
It works very well showing calls, sms and I need not open cover to response to these
And only thing I don't quite like is the casing edges are quite "sharp" feeling to touch .
And I prefer the back texture feeling vs the original back cover faux leather texture

I only will test the battery usage of any phone the first few days. After that, I don't bother about it anymore. This phone easily based on my usage I can hit minimum 6-7 hours SOT and that si definitely good enough for most users
As said before, how often you need to be using the phone in a 8 to 10 hours working day ?? Even 4 hours SOT I deem is sufficient
Unless your job is so free that you can tinker with your phone many several hours a day ( than you had better worry about it !!) . As for a student you should spend your time studying and not playing with your phone for several hours a day !!
I always have my phone fully charged at beginning of the day , and it easily lasts me till 10 pm with 10-20% left most of the time
Having used several high specs phone, for battery life I'd say this Note 3 can match if not slightly better than Note 2. It loses out to Mate 6.1 by at least an hour of SOT, better than Xperia Z Ultra by probably an hour SOT

do we actually need to enable the "s-view" function? as i saw from 1 of my colleague he bought a cap ayam 1 never works hmm.gif
*
NO need ; just clip it in and it auto works. A lot and MOST of those cap ayam brands will not work like the original S View casing as they lack the 2 connectors in back case. Some of these supposedly S View alike casing you just clip it on top of existing back case without removing it - this type 100% will not work

There a quite q few other sellers also selling at that price or even cheaper. Have to say this because purely disappointed with DirectD's staff/marketing attitude. About a week ago went to buy a phone for my Dad and at the time their ad in mudah.my was showing RM 2169. However when I got there, the staff insisted the price is RM 2199. A couple beside me was also on that matter. They left the shop because the girl said price depends on the stock.

What an answer...
*
Directd prices changes every few days. For hot item daily change. One time i got it cheaper by rm50 after checking their price in their Lelong site in morning. The staff told me price reduced 2 hours ago from their boss n website not updated yet

hi benny, just wondering can we use the shake profile from automaton to 'on' the lockscreen?...coz i've been using this feature for my sview but it is not as effective as it should be....

Automaton is working perfectly for me.
I chose flip cover fuse proximity n shake
You must select split 2nd sensor lock n unlock screen too

Hmm, can you guys try shaking your phone see if anything shaking inside.

Mine seem something shaking at the tip side. Not sure is it the camera module.

Solid with no such sound detected. Probably loosen camera mounting. Heard of such issues in nexus 4 n Xperia Z threads.

I was in JB that time. Asus SC there was so f**kin lousy I tell you. Hopeless, slow and not enough manpower. 3 times I went there, the third time I scolded them la but all so langsi ones lol. So decided to sell at a loss and asked the buyer to go claim the warranty from KL SC. Rugi a lot but what to do? life isn't always rainbow and sunshine. tongue.gif

Unlike you my experience with Asus Skudai JB was perfect
I send in my rooted N7 n motherboard need replaced n was told is Free as unit still under warranty. I bought the N7 directly from Google USA. They told me need to wait 2-3 weeks as needed to order the motherboard. On the 3rd week they gave me a new sealed N7 when the technician screwup replacing the motherboard. I was not even aware about this until they called me to pickup the replacement set.

Hi all taiko, anyone receive s-view casing from superbuy? how long it will take if order from them?
*
I have been buying a lot of stuffs from them
If they have stock in hand, they will usually send it out the next day
If no stock, than just got to wait
I order my S View on 29 Sep ( no stock than ) and they ship out on 9 Oct
You can always email them first to enquire about their stock position first
Their email response is always very good and quick
