Is this legit? - Nexus 7 Accessories

I too saw the youtube thing with the magnet but is this case just trying to cash in or can someone confirm that this tab was in fact made with smartcover?

Lol....
it's totally possible.

What's so funny?

There is a thread right below yours talking about this, why don't you go read that.
Short answer, yes, it does.

Because it's possible but we won't know until someone orders it and tests it.

I ordered two different smart cover cases. I received the following one and can confirm that it has a magnet in it and does turn off the screen when shutting the case. Opening turns it on as well. This case below only allows landscape mode but it is a nice case.

I am still waiting on my i-BLASON case which should of been here a long time ago. They said it would ship last Wednesday. USPS showed that a label was created and the status never changed. I am wondering if they just created a label to stall. I contacted the person on Amazon and they said it should of shipped and they don't understand why it didn't. We will see what they say tomorrow.

admittedly, this thread was on the third page of the forum, but did we really need another thread for the same product? not to mention the numerous reviews on amazon...

White OEM Nexus S Cover

Anyone know where I can get one?
I want one too. The new Canadian Nexus S white back cover is different. It's texturized and doesn't leave fingerprints.
Sent from my Nexus S
I want one too! anyone have a link on where to buy one?
White Nexus S !
count me in on the search. Would like to have one too. =)
Have you guys seen the AT&T version of Nexus S?
Its in ALL white (including the side bezel) and the only part that's black is the screen.
Yah but I think the white side bezel makes it look more like a cheap rubber cover. They made the best combo on the european ones, covering only the back and the buttons in white.
I'be emailed Negri Electronics asking but they haven't got back to me yet. I doubt I'm the only one who had asked
Count me in too! =)

Sorry guys, Negri got back to me and they do not sell the white battery cover.

I won't call them fakes, but just non original items, sometime they are not available as OEM just yet, so a good third party, if it fits, it's good enough for me.
Anyway, I buy most of my phone spares and accessories from china, so i know what to look for.
Anyone interested please pm me, I'm going on thursday, I will not entertain anyone without a pm, if they are available I will pm you back.

New Nook HD+ BLACKLISTED!

Just snatched brand new sealed nook hd+ from craigslist, and it turns out I can't register it because its blacklisted (what I gathered from web chat with b&N). I tried to call b&N but they are offline...
I probably could still load cm10 on it, but it would be nice to register for warranty first...
anyone had similar experience? some advice?
The guy I got it from looked innocent, and said he has a ipad4 so he does not need the nook (he said it was a gift). Again, the device was still shrink wrapped, so I'm curious how could it have been blacklisted due to the theft, unless it was stolen from a store?
what do you guys think?

It was factory sealed (you cant do it so nicely without the right equipment). Besides, everything is spanking new (even that protective layer they put on the screen was perfect). Also not a single fingerprint on the screen, which I can't archive no matter how nicely I clean up my other nook hd)
I'm going to call b&n tomorrow and try to clear this up. I'm debating whether I should ask the guy for the name of who bought it for him as a gift. I'm unsure, because it might spook him to change simcard or something, and all I have right know is his cell #.
putting cm10 is another option, but I'd rather clear this first.
Good luck with it

You can get the serial# off the box, no to report it stolen or maybe it was actually stolen new from store and reported to b&n.
Hope everything works out. I def would question the guy and try to get a discount or refund.

As expected the guy went into silent mode. I paid $110 for brand new sealed nook HD+, so I should have suspected.... if it sounds too goog to be true, then it probably is lol.
Anyway, just went ahead and installed CM10 on it. I can't register for warranty purposes, but hopefully I wont need it.
thanks for the input guys

LOL, $110? For that little, I would not care a single bit. If the tablet is fine, looks good, and you have all the accessories, pat your back for getting a good deal.

yeah tablet was brand new sealed, only stolen lol
I fugure the guy just snatched it from somebody's mailbox, and when original owner reported that it did not arrive, they blacklisted the serial number. But yeah, CM10.1 is running very nicely, and I'm very happy with the tablet

YAND - Yet Another Nexus Dock

Hey - I wanted to show off my latest 3D printed dock, this time for the nexus 10.
I borrowed the design ideas from what I saw posed on here and tried to build off of it.
I think the one unique thing about it is that it is made of glazed ceramic instead of that usual plastic. It is very study and has some nice heft, while keeping 3D printing costs down.
I designed it to be able to keep the nexus docked while in my folio case, since I will snatch it off the stand before heading out the door. However, this will dock with or without the case. (FYI this is my case: http://www.roocase.com/Slim-Fit-Veg...--Black-rooCASE/cat-p/c1000036/p10518806.html)
It is designed for the standard POGO magnetic cable.
I just wanted to get thoughts on this if anyone would be interested in one or what questions you might have about it.
I finally got together my shapeways site where you can order the dock if you're interested.
Let me know what you think, or feel free to post in the thread, thanks!
http://shpws.me/rY5i
Thanks again to everyone in this forum for the great ideas!
I guess no one, huh?
I am a little late to the dock party...
Your idea is very good but, in general, nexus10 forum is quite dead.

Agree. Unfortunate really...and surprising. I've had 3 of these in my family and none had any issues whatsoever. They are all in use and still running pretty darn good! I've compared to newer tablets but this really is still a great tablet. Not sure why this forum is so dead.

That's probably the reason, no issues = no reason to search for a forum to find fixes.

Hey! Sorry for the delay, I've been pretty busy with work.
I finally got around to setting up the storefront through Shapeways, and have a link to the stand you can buy directly from there:
http://shpws.me/rY5i
I only selected options for the ceramic material, since plastics would have sent the price over $100.
Let me know what you guys think and if anyone really wants to be a baller and get it made in plastic, I'll add in those options, so just let me know.
I have a just one other tip: I sanded the plastic housing of the POGO cable down just a bit with some sand paper and put a piece of electrical tape on it so when I wedge it in, it stays put on docking and undocking.
Let me know if you guys have any other questions.
thanks!

LG Promo Free Battery, Charger, and Leather Back

I got my G4 from T-Mobile less than two weeks ago, filled out the online promo redemption form and yesterday I received 2 packages, each with the batty, charging dock, and a leather back. I'm not sure why they sent me two but I'm not complaining.
The charging dock is great because you've always got a full battery on deck. I had the same thing with my G3 last year.
If you haven't done so, go to lgpromo.com and get your free stuff!

Did they send you a confirmation Email about you being approved?. I filled out mines about a week ago and it mentioned it would take 3-5 days to get a confirmation Email but nothing yet.
Mine was just approved on Monday, took about one week for approval and shipment.

Too bad I missed the promo.
I will get G4 as soon as tomorrow, but now it's $480.
Yay! I got my battery, battery charger and red leather back from @granttaylor99 that I bought from him!! Quick and easy buy just in case anyone else ever runs into this guy.
There is someone else that got a hold of me selling the battery and battery charger for $40 if anyone wants to know who is selling it just let me know.
Did the $480 deal. Received my red leather back, battery and charger yesterday. Wasn't even aware of the deal until I got home with the phone less than 2 weeks ago and ran into it on the site
I think I like the "red" (burgandy) better than the tmo stock Brown/orange.
