Seidio Active - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone get the Seidio Active case? I haven't used them since my Droid Incredible but the case was pretty good back then. It looks similar to the otterbox commuter from what I can see.

I just got one. Had one on my og incredible as well and loved it. I bought the blue one and the blue doesn't look like it did in the picture but the quality is pretty good. I still prefer my bodyglove dropsuit though. It seems to fit absolutely perfectly and offer great protection.... And it looks BA

Ionic Guardian [Nexus 4 Case]

I am concerned with this case I ordered because there is no speaker slot cut out of the back.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A06Z41E/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
The case seems solid besides the no speaker slot. What do you guys think?

Good idea but how? And why should you really have to? IMHO this is by far the best case for defense on the N4 it looks cool too but idk I feel like I shouldn't have to mod it for it to be efficient.

could you please post pics and maybe make a review too please?
here are the pics
there u can see the speaker hole, i thin they r manufacturing them and they made that change beacause it was a big fail....im not able to do a review because i dont have it yet......so go on anorder this beacause i think it is the best case for our phones...imo
They updated the product description and removed the negative review --
We noticed the feedback left by someone about the picture for this listing. Please note that the picture has been updated to accurately reflects our case design. The case is designed to be a perfect fit for Google LG Nexus 4 with all the cutouts matching perfectly with Nexus 4. Check out the overwhelming positive reviews we have received for our same design Galaxy S3 case, ASIN B005ZG04Q4! It is hard to go wrong with this one! Specially at this killer price!!

So there you have it folks - speaker cut-out and all. I got this case design for my dad's Nokia 710 and it looks very sturdy, hopefully same story here. Not unboxing my N4 until my case arrives. :laugh: Shame that Incipio isn't making cases for this phone (yet). I'm fantastically happy with my Incipio case for my GNex (and GS2).

Car Dock for Bumpered NX4

I've seen lot's of great recommendations for Car Docks for the Nexus 4 without the bumper, and even then most of them don't have USB to dock and go, so I wanted to ask, does anyone know of a car dock that (like the cheap infuse dock) has the USB plug and also fits the Nexus 4 with the bumper on?
Thanks!
Brodit/Proclip have a dock for Nexus 4 with official bumper. It's pricey, but I use it and it's perfect.

Seconded. It's perfect. I actually got a an adjustable one which allows to me to use different bumpers or go naked and still have a secure hold. Strongly recommended.
Hello,
I'm using that one. That's a very flexible car dock to use different phones in diffterent cars. I used the HTC HD2 (naked and also with bumper), HTC Desire HD (naked and also with bumper), Galaxy Nexus (incl. flip case) and the Nexus 4 (naked and Ringke Fusion case) in that car dock. I'm really satisfied using that car dock for 2 years now.
Maybe this one is similar and the Nexus 4 incl. bumper should fit.

This doesn't have the USB as part of it but it's a great solution to those of us that change phones and/or cases every now and then. I've used it so far with my Vibe, Sensation, GS3, Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 all with and without cases. It's adjustable but looks fantastic even if it is overly priced. Great permanent solution IMHO.
I ordered one of these as looks pretty bad ass

As far as I know I am yup I think it looks bad ass, really small and does exactly what I need.
This is the one I use:

Just slide the phone, complete with the bumper, into it and the charger lines up perfectly.

Jumped on this. I fly a lot and the stand function got me. I have to give up USB I guess, but this is universal, which is nice
Jumped on the airframe as well, ultra portable

Sorry, the one I'm using doesn't have integrated USB. Only the models strictly built for the Nexus 4 have a dock.
This is what I have: http://www.proclipusa.com/store/pro...le-holder-for-devices-with-a-case-246824.aspx
It has a range of 6mm - 10mm depth. The phone's depth is 9.1mm. With my Poetic Borderline Bumper Case I measured 11mm, however it still fits perfectly.
This is with the integrated dock, but only works with the N4 + OEM Bumper: http://www.proclipusa.com/brodit-de...d-cigarette-lighter-adapter-512488-19162.aspx
Good luck on your hunt!
I have the iOttie Easy View.
NX4 is an ugly abbreviation.

I'm looking for something like this and it looks nice.
Thank you
I have the Kropsson Aero but not the N800, which has integrated usb charging and other ports as well as a led lighting IIRC. A tad expensive and not portable like the Airframe. Also a little more expensive but well built. It ships from Korea, it took 3 weeks for my item to come in from there to the USA. Just food for thought.
I initially dismissed it because based on the size, it may not fit. But if it did fit, there wouldn't be a pass through for the USB on the bottom claw. But looking at the pics, there seems to be an opening. Maybe whoever wants to buy one, email the seller to ensure it can fit?

What to check for when getting a new phone

So it looks like I'm getting a galaxy s4 soon. What are some of the issues that people are having with their phones that i should look for when i get my phone. I'm talking about hardware issues such as the colors on the screen, overheating etc.
I got a black S4 where the screen was just pure yellow, not even light yellow in a white background. But if tilted even 45 degrees you could see the actual color. So look into that

Read the threads that already exist on the forum. The information you are looking for and a lot more has already been discussed and posted. Plus you will get a good idea of where certain information is for you to use after you get your phone. Most of all, make sure you follow the forum rules and always search before you post. Good luck and enjoy your phone.

for style, the best one all around so far is probably the spigen neo hybrid.
for drop protection and moderate style, otterbox commuter beats all the competition.
Don't let the horror stories scare you. This is a great piece of hardware.
When the nexus came out I was so close to biting. But the stuff I read about it scared me off. Big mistake.

I agree, I've owned them all... 2 Commuters for the S3, and for the S4 2 Neo Hybrids, and Ultra Thin Air, and a Slim Armor... oh, and 4 or 5 screen protectors...

Wood or Leather back

For those who own one of the previous Moto X's. How are the wooden or Leather backs? ie look, feel, and most importantly durability? I was planning on getting a basic black but now I'm intrigued by the leather and wooden options. Any input would be great. All research I've done brings up people's first impressions. I'd like to hear/see how they hold up for a year+.

@jbela1911 Best place to ask would be Moto X 2014 thread. Might already be a thread like this over there.

Yeah I searched around and came up with nothing really. I resubmitted my question over there. Thank you.

If they had a navy or royal blue leather I'd be all over that.
I had the 2013 X with bamboo back and have been really happy with it, but I love the look of the leather this time around and think I will go with that. For what it's worth, I haven't had any durability, discoloration, slipping, etc issues with mine.
Awesome. Thanks for your input. Could you post some pictures of it by chance?

I watched a video of switching from a plastic back to bamboo and both looks like plastic; just the bamboo had a veneer or something over it.. is that true or is it just a very thing piece of bamboo?

The one that comes with the Moto X via MotoMaker is REAL bamboo, the video you watched was the one I linked. That bamboo back was a 3rd party backing hence it was probably fake but the one that ships with the Moto X is real.

ah thanks for the clarification.. so it would be safe to say if i got a wood or bamboo back it cannot be changed so easily?

Pure guessing here btw, if its anything like the Moto X 2014 I dont see why not, especially considering bamboo is stupidly flexible as I'm sure you're aware of but even if it wasn't and was rigid I cant see it being an issue tbh but this is all guessing tbh will only know when people start doing strip downs on youtube lol.
The way the backs attacth onto the Style could be completly different compared to last years model - time will tell.

Anyone used XtremeSkins before?

I am thinking of getting a skin for my OP5 (black is kind of boring...) I looked at dbrand, but then come across xtremeskins - I like their color better... (I am planning for an Eva-01 color scheme from Neo Evangelion, sorry anime fans...) Any one has experience with Xtremeskins? Good/Bad?
Thanks!
I've used them loads of times they have great customer service and fast dispatch times. The skins themselves I can't fault at all they could use some new ones but thats just my issue of how many I bought lol
Oh and I will say the one major issue with them compared to the likes of Dbrand is you have to pop out all the cut out ports yourself. they're cut into the skin already but not taken out for you and it can be a little annoying at times.
Yeah - used a few times. Decent skins. Price has slowly come up tho :~(
Its all the same stuff. 3M car vinyls with no grip. Some have the ability to print custom designs on them (like car wraps). Really it all comes down to how precise the cut is, or how forgiving per say, from manufacturer to manufacturer.
This Affriction guy I keep hearing about though... got mad at all of those guys and created one himself that offers grip. I think he put post up in this section. He even discounted for xda peeps... cause he is also one of them.
Shameless plug,
Affriction.
Yup used them twice now, can't really fault the quality nor the ship time. Especially for me since I'm UK based and their a UK based company. Far quicker than getting anything from dBrand or Slickwraps. If it helps here's my most recent video of the S8 skin I had from them:
Yep used them one time, were definitely of high quality! Had a slight issue with mine where the skin was slightly torn, contacted support and they went above and beyond to help me out. New skin they sent out was perfect! Definitely my go to skin company

Yep got one on my phone now. Not as good as dbrand but not far off and much quicker if you're in the UK. Cheeper too.

Seen them around. Look good. Can't comment on how long they last though.
I took mine off, dbrand lasted ok on a very tight case, this one did not..great they're in the UK but man wish I'd not bothered.
Also Im quite used to fitting these, have done hundreds of them. Fitting was perfect, heat was taken from hairdryer quite well (Dyson) just couldn't take a case.
Shame.

Thanks for letting us know, one of my first times hearing about Xtremeskins quality since I got the op5 so pretty interested to see if they kept it up or not
I'm using matte black back skin. Was really easy to apply, fits perfectly. Feels like really good quality
Out of curiosity, what's the point of applying a skin when you have a case? I mean, I've ordered an Xtremeskin and a DBrand skin (Leather and Dragon) but now that I received the Karbon Bumper case, I find it so lovely and classy and beautiful and... that I don't see why I would not keep my phone in it... I think my O+5 is safe in the case, so...

Well if you have a case that covers 100 percent then the only reason would be so you can take it off and retain some protection.
Or if you don't have 100 percent cover, like the rhinoshield, the back of your phone will be open.
This set up sees to that.

but it's just a skin, it doesn't protect the phone, except from scratches, right? I mean, skin or no skin, the phone falls, either you're lucky or you're not, correct? The case adds a little to your lucky spirit, that's my point.
I'm not saying skins are no good, I bought 2 of them, waiting for the 2nd one to arrive to make my choice. But...

You've misunderstood me..
I'm extremely careful with my devices, so if I'm the office then I will mostly just use the skin as the chances of dropping it are pretty much zero.
But, if I'm going on a night out or I'm out doing something more active then I'll use a case.
The benefit to having a skin is cosmetic yes, it'll offer little to no protection against drops.
But in the case of bumpers it will save the back of the device against scratches.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Once my phone is in a case I like, then I don't see the point of removing it. The Karbon Bumper case looks so cool, totally in love with it now
I might try one of the skin I have, but...
Damn, I also really like the matte black one from Xtremes.
