I went to AT&T to try out the S5.
Overall a very nice phone however the one thing that I think will annoy the hell out of me is having to fiddle with that flap every time it's time to charge the phone.
I found it really hard to open and after a few tries I managed to get my finger nail under the slight lip but it was not very comfortable to do.
How are the rest of yo owners finding the handling of this flap?
I will be using a robust case for mine so wireless charging is out for me.
I heard back from both Spigen and Case-Mate who both said that it's unlikely charging would work through their cases and that's assuming the phone will still fit with the slightly larger charging back.

That's the only thing that I find annoying about the S5. I understand it needs to be covered for water/dust resistance, but it's still incredibly annoying. I have short nails (stupid nail-biting habit) so trying to open it is always a chore. I've actually resorted to using a small thumb-tac (lol) to open it and it works perfectly every time.
I'll definitely be looking at wireless charging options once they're readily available. I rarely use a case on my S5, just because I like how it feels in the hand without one, so the different back shouldn't be an issue.
I like knowing that dirt, dust and curious little kid fingers won't be able to affect the port. I have an otterbox that has a decent opening to allow for charging, been using it all day and its around 55% batt, so I'll be okay with the cover.
I have the spigen tough armor case and I can charge the phone with no problem. It's a minor inconvenience but it's worth having the peace of mind against getting water damage.

....I pulled that little thing out. I know its not water proof anymore, but ehh i wasn't gonna test it anyways.
I actually like the idea of covering the port, it's just very poorly executed on this phone. I really liked the sliding 'door' on the Captivate. But it's something that I'll learn to get used to.
I keep a spudger tool on my desk from an iphone repair kit...works great.

My wife has been using the S4 Active since her S3 had an unfortunate dunking. The S5 charging cover is much easier to use and and worth the effort if you've ever dealt with dropping the phone into, say, the washing machine.

Not being "lazy" but I have gel tips on my nails.. therefore opening this door without one of my kids/boyfriend or a thumbtack etc. is impossible for me. My 17-year-old suggested I rip it off but I refused because I want the dust and waterproof to remain.
I think the flap is the unfortunate, necessary evil for the water/dust proofing feature of the phone. I am not a fan of it either but it is what it is.

So I work as a lifeguard and I need my phone in the stand for music and ideally I'd like to have a waterproof case but there seem to be none available. i dont want the salt air to corrode the ports and internals of my phone so i usually use a sandwich bag but it doesnt provide any protection from sand really and its annoying. So I'm pretty crafty with duct tape so I decided to make my own case. I just did it about a half hour ago I'll probably make a better version in the future after I figure out the flaws but here's a few pictures of it. Let me know what you guys think.

Well you could purchase those knock-off Otterbox Defender or Survivor cases. They should give you relatively ok protection from sand, drop impact, and minor splashes of water (for more water protection, those sealable cases I suggested earlier, would be your only choice).
This case http://www.ebay.com/itm/DRiPRO-Spor...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item4d0de9f4c3 is reusable, so that shouldn't be an issue.
I work beach volleyball and know what you mean, sand is the thing I fear most. I usually use two sandwich bags and scotch tape them tightly around the phone. Back camera's unusable then but the phone is safe the screen works just fine. I've also saran wrapped the phone itself and put it back in the case.

But hey, if ziplock bag wasn't working for you, that couldn't have cost more than $1 in parts. Maybe fifteen to thirty minutes of time. Obviously this is not a case about drops, but about keep tiny scratch particles from getting in. A prime example of function over form.

Sup ladies/guys, today I present to you a wrist strap solution. If you are like me and don't like to put cases/covers on your phone and wish every phone had a wrist strap cling, like older phones used to have, then I have a solution for you. I have done this since I got my N5. I never like to put cases on my phone because I believe a phone is sexy, well certain phones. HTC makes the sexiest phones, in my opinion. See pictures below please.
Instructions: Take a thick needle that you can have a good grib on. A nail might work too. You might want to mark with a marker/pen where you want to place the two holes. With the needle start to wind it back and forth, Sort of like like a motion where, as if you are tightening a screw. Careful you dont pierce your hands, lol. You might have to push a bit while trying to make the holes, this should penetrate the needle. You should make the two holes vertical, unless u want them to be horizontal.
That poor thing...
Why???
Just get the REARTH's Ringke Fusion. It already comes with wrist strap slots.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00EPLTFIS
I picked both it, and the Spigen Neo-Hybrid http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00EV8Y684/ref=pd_aw_sbs_4?pi=SS115 up on release day; haven't even opened the hybrid package yet.
Don't ruin your phone when there are better options out there.

Charging port won't be touched because you would have remove the cover to put the holes =).
I didn't say anything about the charger port. The wireless inductive charging coil is on the back side of the back cover.
If you poke a hole (or 2 for that matter) in the wrong spot; there goes your wireless charging. Plus...I highly doubt neither Google nor LG will honor a warranty claim if you deliberately punched holes in the back of the phone.

Hi guys.....i love my zr but really disappointed with absence of accessories for it.
There are qi charging pads and accepters on aliexpress for 10 bucks a set... NOT FOR OWR PHONES of course.
I can fit in one inside of the rubber seal area and connect it with small wires to the battery.....
The question is.....have anyone tryed it before?
Sent from my C5503 using xda app-developers app
I wouldnt recommend forcing the pad under the battery door. If you look under there youll notice that the waterproofing works by letting the rubber gasket fall into a channel; if you add something thatll push the gasket away from the channel, it might be enough to let water in.
I actually just got my wireless charging pad for the Note 2 in the mail today. I'm planning to adapt it to my Xperia ZR but in a different way. I plan to put it between my phone and case, and connect it thru the docking connectors on the side of the phone. Ill update you with photos when im done if it comes out alright. Right now im just worried about how Im gonna get it to sit right without covering the flash.

Okay heres my update: i did what i was planning to; unfortunately its not incredibly elegant.
I used a charging pad for note 2 which i bought on ebay. The copper tips i used as pins for the charging pad were a bit bigger than they should have been so my case is a little warped on that side. Also the pressure from the case makes the pins not have great contact with the phone so it takes little fidgeting to get it to start charging. Besides that though it works fine. I set it on the wireless charger at night and the phone is at 100% in the morning.
This weekend im gonna redo the soldering of the pins with some slightly smaller ones and see if i can make it... prettier.
The only thing to keep in mind is that +5v is the pin closest to the top of the phone and gnd is the bottom one. I also had to modify the charging pad to g3t the flap to come out higher up from the pad, otherwise I would have had to cover the flash.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using XDA Free mobile app
Yet another update. I tried to make it more elegant by reducing the thickness of the pins but to no avail. Doing this mod with a tpu (flexible plastic) case was a waste of time since theres no way to keep pressure on the pins and make the case sit flush.
Sent from my C5502 using XDA Free mobile app
What about glueing the connector to the phone? With this solution no pressure from the plastic case is required I guess...

I've been using a QI wireless charging pad for a couple of weeks without any problem. As another user posted, the only effect I've noticed is a slight bulge in the back panel. It doesn't get especially hot (although it does warm a little more than with USB charging.)
The only other thing is that I've got a wallet case on my phone and charge through that (so there's some plastic between the phone and charging plate.)
I have the expower ultra thin card and in the instructions it tells you to remove the copper screening sticker from inside the original back plate as it causes extra heat when charging. Its a ***** to peel off as well. Gets warm but not enough to bend my phone by any means and it charges fine through my defender case there's no noticeable bulge in the back plate either. If i want to put it in water i'll throw an otterbox preserver on it.

Hey all, I was doodling with the spen this morning and noticed there was about a quarter sized area that would not recognize any pen input; however, touch still works perfectly. Has anyone else experienced this? I will add that I recently put a case on that has a metal kickstand and also tested the case with the wireless charger... the spot seems to be about where the wireless charger would have made contact with the metal kickstand. Is it possible that the case amplified the charger and fried the digitizer/sensor? Any fixes? I am still within my two weeks and will probably end up just exchanging the phone out if not.
I've been hearing that if your case as a magnet in it for the kickstand then that could create a dead spot.

I had just received the Obliq with kickstand through amazon.https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B011WD7OUM/ref=mobile_oh_details_?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I really liked it...might try to put a little circle bandaid or something on the magnet to dampen so I can continue use. Hopefully no permanent damage or anything.

I actually was thinking about that case. That deadspot does suck though. Other than that, how do you like the case though? Feel like it protects the phone well? I'm still considering it. I haven't TRULY got to play with my phone yet since I've had it and i dont know all of the features of the S pen so im not sure how much Id actually use it
