Screen only cover?

Does anyone know if the magnets on the N7 would support an iPad smart cover style front?
I had a wooden Miniot smart cover for my iPad and loved it. And I love how the N7 feels in the hand so I don't want to add bulk.
I've not heard of any though...

Looks sweet! This would match perfectly with my Mica Plank watch
I sent an email request to see if they will even think of creating one for the N7. We'll see :fingers-crossed:

We won't ever see this I think. The iPad has 2 sets of magnets. One of the left to anchor the case, one on the right to turn the screen on/off. The N7 has one on the left for on/off only.

Such a shame. I hate how much bulk most cases add.
Better keep my eyes open for the thinnest case I can find.

I sent them an email yesterday and have yet to hear a response. I'll update if there is an answer. :fingers-crossed:

Got a response today and they said no. :crying:
Hunt goes on! LOL

Considering the back of the N7 can come off with a fingernail, we almost need a replacement back for the N7, with an attached screen flap. I think there's an antenna in the stock back though... so an aftermarket case may exclude that. Not sure if it's just a NFC antenna or what?

My DIY Nexus 7 and Galaxy Nexus Combo Stand

This is what you get on a boring Friday night.
Parts:
DVD case
White cardboard
Whiteout
Ducktape
Glue stick
I took a spare DVD case I had lying around (bonus points cause it's white and matches my desk). Then I fashioned it into a tablet stand. You do this by taking off the plastic and bending the tabs outwards. Then you secure the case in some way so that it doesn't slide. I have no string so I ducktaped the case open.
Then I took some cardboard and bent it into the proper shape to fit the Galaxy Nexus. I took an even smaller piece of cardboard and used that to make sure the Galaxy Nexus wouldn't slide out of place. I secured that using the glue stick.
Then I painted everything in whiteout to make it nice and sharp.
Obviously this could be much cleaner looking if I had the right parts but this is what I could make due with in my new apartment which has basically nothing in it.
Enjoy

Bear motion folio case review (Black)

I got this case because I needed some protection for my note 2 and nothing was available locally .
I was just looking for something cheap and multifunctional .
For $11.99 I really was not expecting much but it turned out better than I expected. It works well protecting the phone , (my wife dropped hers with no damage ) and it does not make it hard to slip into my pocket .
It really shines when folded into a stand which really comes in handy .
The feau leather material is nice enogh and also comes with storage for license, credit cards etc.
The only negative is I have to take it off if I am using the Samsung media dock .
But for the price it is a nice item to have for sure

when folded into a stand the phone slowly falls due to the weight and before long its facing the ceiling. i'll be ebaying mine

Got the same one . I like it especially because I can put my cards and ID in there along with some cash. Also, the price is decent.

[Review]DODOCase Classic

First let me say that the turnaround time on my order was amazing for a handmade case. I placed my order last Friday 02/01 and received it today 02/06.
The build quality is impeccable. Everything is tight and the materials are top notch. The case itself is absolutely gorgeous.
I have tried using the case in portrait mode with the cover open and folded back and found that both positions are easy to use.
In landscape i have tried the case laid down and propped up and have found both to be workable. Standing up is great for viewing videos and laying down has presented the best typing angle I have experienced on my Nexus 7.
The case is easy to remove and the strap does a good job of keeping the Nexus secure when not in use.
The speaker does appear to be slightly muted. This is not that big of a deal to me as most of the time I am using a Bose Soundlink II.
If you are looking for a top notch case made of premium materials then this is the case for you.
Here are some images. My apologies for the image quality as i took them from my GNex.

Does it add considerable weight?

I know that it looks like it does but the case is actually very light. There is no considerable difference in weight.

It ain't a very light case, so yes, it does.
I can confirm that the quality is very good and I like the looks (I don't have the 'wooden' edge).

Discoloration on white X

My 2013 X is discolored from being in a purple case for quite a while, is there anything that could be recommended to safely clean it up? Thanks in advance.

I removed some stubborn stains with alcohol. I wouldn't recommend using a lot or on a regular basis, as it might begin to affect the composite material. A quick wipe should be fairly harmless, but no guarantees. Just sharing my experience. That white matte composite material is very prone to absorbing stains unfortunately. I thought about spraying it with a clear coat to protect it but at that point I figured I'd probably just buy a replacement back. Good luck.

Magic eraser?

Not trying to be funny. But I don't think you'll be able to clean it completely. Definitely one of the disadvantages of a white phone. Probably you should put some cover back on the phone.

I'm with @shubh_007 on this. That is why I prefer black over white. Slap on a new skin to cover the discoloration.
