Samsung Galaxy Note 3

[Dom1n8tr1x]

Does anyone here know how to access the sensors on the Note3? As I understand it's got a thermometer, barometer etc. Is there any way the user can access the data - for example to read the actual temperature or pressure and not rely on the weather app.

I use Smart Thermometer

and S Baro

Androsensor from the play store works nice, shows all the sensors available.

Cpu-z all is great

Yes, it's the Spigen Slim Armor case. Very surprised that it came so quick.

ahhhhh...I have been waiting since October 22...I'm at my wits end now. I ordered the neo-hybrid case.

Downloaded the ADH app and did what it asked. It didn't ask me for imei number. Is it as simple as that?

 

[Aharon]

Yes, it reads the IMEI number

 

[Incog Nito]

Yep, as simple as that.

Ok, so I placed my order for the Note 3 via FNB, but they have stock shortages, so I must wait a bit... No worries, it's not like my current S4 is that bad...

Still waiting for fnb to only list the watch. That would make me so happy.

For me, the watch is pointless... Some might find it good, but the phone can do so much more than the watch when paired together... I guess I don't know enough about it yet... I'm not sure if they will even sell the watch by itself, they might pair it with the S4 at a later stage....

I got a fongkong spigen cover for now, getting genuine one on Mon/tue. Its really a bad build, but better than no covers I suppose. Even says "neo hybirid" on the side, hahaha :wtf:

I'm hoping they'll add apps to the Gear for all the apps on the phone. Like WhatsApp. Otherwise it's useless to me.

Ok, my spigen cases finally arrived. I ordered a Satin Silver Neo Hybrid and Smooth black Ultra fit. I actually prefer the ultra fit because its thinner than the Neo Hybrid.

Spigen seems to have made a mistake though. They sent me 2 neo hybrid cases + Crystal Screen protectors. I dont recall paying for 2. I will have to check mh bank statement. But anyway to cut a long story short, if there is anyone on Cape Town who would like to purchase these let me know. I'll upload some pics later on. They cost $38.20 and came with slow mail so I'm willing to sell for R400. Spigen packaging still sealed and relevant certificate of authenticity inside.

Just a quick question, you sure it says "Neo Hybrid" and not "Ned Hybrid", I'm asking because some fake cases says "Ned Hybrid".

Just curious.

It says "NEO HYBIRID" (extra I in the hybrid).




I must say, the back cover feels quite nice, just the frame has a plastic feel. The volume/power button seems to respond quite well.

I will probably wait until I get the genuine one on Mon/Tues before doing a more in-depth comparison.

Ok some pics of the Spigen Neo Hybrid, Crystal screen protector and the Spigen Ultra fit. Sorry for the poor lighting.

Case looks awesome! :thumbup:

Thanks. It was killing me having my phone naked.

Also got a neo hybrid, white, great cover and awesome fit. Only sad thing is it detracts from the slim proportion and lines of the device. Suppose any case does this.

I agree. I also got the ultra fit (2nd pic from the top) I prefer that because keeps phone slim. But not as pretty as the neo hybrid.
