Well i myself have a piel frama case... and underneath the keyboard i keep a lens cleaning cloth that i have cut to fit properly... it allows me to clean my screen on the athena and me not to have ot carry around the cloth in my pocket as it just sits underneath my keyboard
helps prevent scratches from rough cleaning
my cloth reccomendation is a microfiber lens cleaning cloth these work great =)
i just thought id share this with all of you... here are some pics

Great thinking. Glad there is no more room under there or I'm affraid that you might start using it as a purse of sorts. ;-)

Hey I was wondering if there was any case like the pdair aluminum case except when attached to my belt it hung sideways and not vertical. Basically I want a case that acts as if it is part of the phone where I can just take it off of my hip and use it then just put it back on. But I want something that will hang like the case that it comes with, where its horizontal and not vertical so it doesn't get in the way and look obnoxious.
Hope that makes sense to most.
Thanx
I found this one by Proporta:

but it seems to be the same thing with a swivel clip.
Maybe you could glue the clip permanently so the phone is in the horizontal postion by roughing the clip and knob up with some sandpaper, then applying some plastic epoxy to it.
Does anybody have the pdAir aluminum case?
If so, does the front cover have a clear plastic cover protecting the lcd?
thanx

So in short.. Yes.
I find the phone very slippy particularly when trying to press the buttons on the sides.
I'm about to order a cheap silicone case from ebay to see if that helps but these tend to add quite a bit of size to the devices which is never welcome to such a big device.
Does anyone know of any stick on protection that will offer a bit more purchase? Does the Zagg invisible shield help in that matter?
The phone fell from me about three times on asphalt... the phone screen didn't scratch yet for me the damage was absorbed by the silver coat framing. Till now its very micro and small.. I tried to find a leather casing for the phone.. but with no luck in my area.

Ebay in the UK are listing leather cases if that helps.
I ordered one of these, should get it in a few days and hopefully will be a bit grippier (is that a real word?)

Very nice. Personally i would put a black carbon.
How did you do it, where you found it etc.
Info please!!!!!!
carbonfibergear.com they have it in like 6 different colors cost me 8$ for a 4x8 piece more than enough ifn u mess up. 3M makes so the back has a sticky side, peel and stick then hit it with a hair dryer on low to make it stay on the edges.

Maybe he bought a piece of film like he said in his first and the third post?
http://www.carbonfibergear.com/direct/3m-di-noc-carbon-fiber-vinyl
That might make it easier for you.
I did this with black carbon. Had it on for about a week and took it off. It kinda reminded me of one of those coffee carabiners.
it stays on very well to my surprise thought it would have peeled on the edges by now

Go to any material/ art craft shop and they can cut a piece off for you for cheap.
Ps this isn't meant to ruin your business. It's just to help people who can't send money.
Looks nice. Reckon you could make a few quid doing that.
Thread closed.
This type of carbon fibre is available in most craft shops.
Posting a mod is fine, selling a product is against xda rules.
I've dropped my phone a few times and doing so messed up the chrome bezzel pretty badly. I didn't take before photos like I should have but I couldn't stand looking at it anymore. I had bought a carbon fiber vinyl to wrap my GearS Watch Band with. It was a decent size sheet and I have more left but after I did the watch band I decided to wrap my phone battery cover. Thats when I decided to do the bezel as well. Took a bit of time and was tedious but it looks great and I wanted to share with everyone. Maybe this could be an idea for others. Used an Xacto Knife and a Hair Drier.

It looks ugly
The phone looks ugly in this wrapping. Better re-paint the bezel (if possible) lol !
I have never used any cover for phone. I use my S5 carefully and it's bezel perfectly fine. And I have been using S5 for 15 months now
everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I've had mine since June but have dropped it quite a few times (guess I'm careless) I love the way it looks and everyone around me that has seen it ip has me liked it. I thought about buying a new bezel but it would be to much to take the phone apart and I had the extra vinyl laying around. Although it would be cool to do because I'd like to swap the Nav Menu LEDs from white to red.
It looks awesome in the carbon fibre wrap [emoji1]
