Just got the Otterbox commuter

And my god am I impressed. I've used otter boxes since the iphone 3gs but I was torn between this and the body glove case. After this purchase, the Otterbox brand will be on every phone I own. Totally recommend this case, it comes with an screen protector you apply but I'm not a fan of those so I can't say anything about it but still, worth every penny. You just can beat the quality of these, fits like a glove, no movement what so ever.

How many days did it take to get to you? How long in processing?

I bought it the day it was available which was Friday and got overnight shipping, it arrived this morning.

Targus Vuscape *coming soon

Browsing trough the internet and I find this. I know there is a couple Chinese versions on amazon and ebay, but this one should be way better product, well made and good quality.
Targus Vuscape™ Case for Google Nexus 7
On Best Buy

Already available at Best Buy. Bought my vuscape 4 days ago. Great case, with huge cutout for the speaker grill.

Smart Dock...

Worth every penny. Got 35% off, even though I would have paid full price for it. Anyone else has it?

What is it? Lol what does this dock do...
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app

Have it, love it. Just installed XBMC on my Note 2 and its so good

The concept to me is really cool. If I didn't already have a laptop it would fill my needs for a computer. Still pricey though...

I don't have one but am very interested in one. Where did you get yours for 35% off?

I have it. Sometimes the hdmi doesn't work. I have to take off and put back on. Otherwise its great. Not $100 worth so im glad I didn't pay full price, but very handy at work and home.

What does this dock do differently? I got a cheap dock on Amazon that works great for me.

It works just like plugging in a standard Micro usb cable into your phone. Option-wise that is.

The op posted about the smart dock. The thread is called smart dock. He said he got 35% off, and still hasn't told anyone how. People keep posting about chargers for some reason? The smart dock gives you the ability to use the full functionality of the mhl http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_High-Definition_Link#section_5
It's not a charger.

Easy there tiger.
A) This thread is a month old now
B) Have you ever seen a thread stay on topic?
C) >1% of the users of this phone really care about hdmi out. Just no real purpose other than the "oh that's cool factor"
The post I made gives it more than just a "charger" feature set. Which more than likely can be done with the holier-than-thou Smart Dock as well but you'd have to give up the audio port for it to work.

Why don't they charge $6 more and put the NFC antenna on these things? The batteries are great, but without NFC, going forward are going to lose my business.

Does anyone know where to buy these apart from Amazon (for non US buyers)

Mine came with a piece of crap NFC that didn't even work. I ended up using the one from the stock case and scotch taped it to the phone. Lol works just like the OEM backplate now. It only looks bad when you show off the battery.
Funny enough I've had four different backplates and the only two that worked were the OEM ones.

The one I got from Amazon had NFC on it. The site didn't mention it but it didn't work anyway. lol

Yea I had to take the NFC off my original back door and connect it to the Anker back door.

Galaxy Gear: Higher Battery Capacity Replacement?

Hi there, I was disassembling my watch to be curious. I found the battery area and I noticed online there are micro batteries around the web. Do you guys think there is a way to get one of those batteries and fit it into the watch and use the ribbons (the wires) that were on the old battery and make them work with the new battery? I'm still trying to look for a good battery only if it is confirmed that one can do this. Thanks if you can help me out!

I'm thinking you've gone deeper into your gear than a lot of us...
Find a battery that fits, has similar voltage output, and let us know how it goes! :fingers-crossed:

for the size of 20mm x 30 mm you will be very lucky to find anything over 315mA
i had a quick search and i found 310mA etc
unless you can modify the case some how i dont think you will find anything

You rock! Thanks for putting this together. Any chance you can link the battery you used just in case anyone (myself included) wants to order it and make the update themselves? Not much difference, but as this device gets older it might be worthwhile to swap batteries.
Thanks again for the nice mod!

I have successfully replaced the battery before, but be cautious if you do get a gear, only tested on original gear. You have to switch the capacitors, or the battery will just drain, and it needs the same voltage. The LG G Watch I heard was a great device, and with the oneplus, the G watch has full compatibility. I used the gear once with a Droid ultra, I had problems with a few things, and no galaxy store. Good thing I'm back to my Note 3 (for now ☺).

when replacing the battery with the 350mah one, you have to switch a capacitor? you can just connect the two wires to the pads? and what is the battery regulator? I want to try this one
