I had the same issues with my bumper I removed it and those problems are gone

Yeah it works fine without the bumper

Do you still see the little nib on the screen on the corner where the problem is?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Yh the nib doesn't show up in the corners and when writing I have to press twice as hard in the corner for it to register. Everything works fine with the bumper off.

I have my SN2 for 10 days and i am using a tpu case from day one..today i found marks on the metal coat . Can i remove these marks?
nope, there will be some small marks, had it on my SGS2, still better than having no case IMO, after 1.5 years the marks didn't increase a bit. Planning to get a case for the Note 2 anytime

What sort of mark is it? A scratch? A dot? Or what?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
They are dots but not deep..
Photos please. I like to use TPU, but am wondering what it does to this device.

I have just found a dot on mine too...but it doesn't make sense to me how the tpu can be the cause of it...but I'm pretty sure it wasn't there when I first got the phone
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
The TPU cases will scratch your phone's outter body, and there is no way to remove it but it will protect your phone.
I haven't had a device with Chrome Trim since my Touch Pro 1. I can see how little bits of dust can get in between the tpu and body of the phone. Some slight rubbing can cause the scratches I suppose. I haven't seen any on my last 3 devices, but then again they were dull/semi gloss black.

But why? There are only dusts between the tpu and the phone , so what is scratching it?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Dust with include microscopic bits of grit - this is the culprit
I guess ideally you can use one of those clear skins on the body of the phone. Then use the tpu. No scratches anymore.

Well I've found countless others...but ALL have that stupid cutout. And I definitely don't want an aluminum bumper.
Something like the nexus 4 or iphone bumper

I have actually bought 2 aluminium bumpers...but still waiting for them to come from hk. Many members here have said that the aluminium ones are quite alright. So I can't wait to try them on. Not too sure if we will ever get any good tpu bumpers (with no corner cut out)

I ordered a few of these for my titanium Grey GN2 and they are my favorite cases by far! They are brushed aluminum with metallic plastic sides. The inside is lined with a felt material. I have the light blue, silver, and black one as well as pink that I bought for my girlfriend. They make my phone look very sleek and expensive compared to any tpu cases I have!

Do they interfere with phone signal and/or nfc?
I haven't had the chance to test NFC but my phone signal doesn't seem to be affected at all.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
Can you check if GPS signal is affected?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
Just checked my GPS using the navigation app and it locks on and works perfectly with the case on. The only thing that doesn't seem to work is NFC. I just tried it with my Nexus 7 and it was a no-go until I removed the case. But my phone signal and GPS are working just fine. I don't really use NFC so it's not a deal-breaker for me personally.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
I have this case. The build quality is really good. Feels better in the hand than the other plastic case I have (ion guardian). Reception and gps signal is fine. Only compliant I have is it doesn't fully cover the top and bottom of the phone.
Another user posted a video review of this case.

Just to be clear, these cases aren't made from "brushed aluminum", they are plastic with "brushed-aluminum-color" finish....
I have 3 of these and I assure you they are mainly brushed aluminum with metallic plastic around the sides and camera area. It is very easy to tell when examining them. You can tell by the edging where it is cut. It also has felt lining inside to prevent scratching against the aluminum

I'm deciding between xda/cruzerlite and seidio surface/best buy premium
Xda is xda and only $10 and looks nice
Surface seems more durable and comes with holster that I might or might not use
This is my 1st phone that isn't a flip so I don't know if I will use it because I don't like that it takes up a whole pocket but the phone might weigh down my pants.

I bought the surface and love it!!! Only thing is that it ripped off my skinomi screen protector so I'm in search for a screen protector that works with this case... It does seem to collect dust around the edges of the the screen but not too bad and doesn't bother me... Over I think it's perfect

Could you get a screen protector to work with the surface? A wet one I just ordered a just like glass one and the owner says it will be fine

I have the BB PT case and it works great. Love the holster.

Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I tried to resist the surface case for a while, cos I live in Europe and it's expensive with shipping, but, I couldn't hold my self off anymore! went on and ordered it(for a total of 40 $) , might get it next week.
Reviews, videos and ppl on xda have nothing but praising that case, though I've never seen it but I guess I won't be disappointed.

I have a JLG and the surface case... Best combo. Just make sure to line up the protector with the home button. The two literally fit together perfectly minus an 1/8" gap at the bottom. My camera can't even capture how well the two go together.
Enjoy!

Spigen ultra clear is just a small amount to the case so dust gathers there

Does anyone know or have a drop in pouch anyway kinda similar to this one? This one was for my s3. I'm looking for something I can drop my n2 in when I'm running or in the gym.
Also something with a clip (not loop) so I can clip on my shorts. No arm bands. Thanks in advance

By the way... that use to be a regular Velcro lip but I cut it off to make it a pouch.
