    Post Otterbox Strada Folio Case Cover/Hall Sensor Issues

    I've read about Samsung using either nfc or contact points on the Note to "protect consumers from a bad experience with unofficial cases"... Now we just need to figure out how to get around it

    Post Otterbox Strada Folio Case Cover/Hall Sensor Issues

    This Otterbox Strada case is definitely disappointing considering what they ask for it. Pilz in your experience, do any of the unofficial folio cases offer auto screen waking when the cover is lifted? If this Otterbox Strada had that feature then I wouldn't have to press the power button nearly...

    Does your case include a visible microchip?

    Post Otterbox Strada Folio Case Cover/Hall Sensor Issues

    What's the orientation of the case in that photo? I just read about Samsung equipping their cases with chips on the backside so that non original cases cannot utilize s-view. Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers mobile app

    Post Otterbox Strada Folio Case Cover/Hall Sensor Issues

    Well yes, I understand that as I alluded to in my first post...plus the Otterbox rep cleared up that the S7 edge does not have magnets which I find hard to believe. What I'd like to know is how do the samsung flip cases activate the autowake function?....And is it able to be imitated by...

    Post Otterbox Strada Folio Case Cover/Hall Sensor Issues

    UPDATE: Notes from Darren: Great question, Kevin. The Strada case unfortunately does not have an auto wake/sleep function. The S7 does not have the built in magnets to allow the case to turn the screen on/off. The sole purpose of the magnet on the Strada case is to clasp the lid of the case...

    Thread Otterbox Strada Folio Case Cover/Hall Sensor Issues

    The Otterbox Strada case i just purchased does not seem to have a screen wake function when the cover is lifted up... Does anyone with this case or another folio case know of a work around for this or if I have a defective hall sensor? You'd think for as much money as these guys charge for their...

    Post Samsung Browser-Open new window in background?

    I'd like to know if there is a way to change that as well aside from using a different browser.

    Post "Additional Security" during lock screen...

    I have the same problem and I can confirm that when I use Action Launcher's turn off display shortcut it causes the "additional security" prompt to come up, otherwise no prompt. I will try using the above referenced app instead.

    Post Manual camera

    I had this same problem...Try taking a picture with the stock camera (to save something to the default photo folder) then try with manual camera again. It should work. I think the issue is that manual camera doesn't know what the save location is because its just following the stock camera's...

    Post [ROM][HAMMERHEAD][Marshmallow 6.0.1]Cataclysm for Nexus 5[Jan 05 - Stable]

    Removed the pics. Thanks for the heads up. I always saw the imei as being something similar to a license plate or phone number....you don't want the entire world to know it but it isn't like a social security number..

    Post [ROM][HAMMERHEAD][Marshmallow 6.0.1]Cataclysm for Nexus 5[Jan 05 - Stable]

    Thanks for the help, I think I'm just going to wait for the next release as I flashed slimkat and it works just fine (and the telephone status info is back to normal) Going back to kk from lollipop feels slightly weird haha ---------- Post added at 10:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at...

    Post [ROM][HAMMERHEAD][Marshmallow 6.0.1]Cataclysm for Nexus 5[Jan 05 - Stable]

    Heads up, this might be slightly confusing as I don't know the best way to describe my problem (its telephony related). I'll start off by mentioning that my problem existed when I dirty flashed the jan 10 update (so I did a factory reset followed by a clean flash and it still persisted). Upon...
