Samsung S-View Flip Cover is horrible.

You have to buy the Spigen. Gives you 2 clips magnetic, put one on the Cover and one on your device. Line them up and problem of not staying closed is solved.

I'm kind of curious if anyone can read their text messages in the S view cover screen? I always get a message saying to open the device cover. Any help?

I ditched my cover long ago. No protection and doesn't stay closed.

Do you have preview message checked in the messaging settings? Are you using a different default messaging app other than stock?

For the price are you able to use a different music player or are you only forced to use Samsung apps? I only ask because I know on the regular lock screen they took away the ability to have widgets unless you have an unsecured lock. With the lock screen in security mode you can only see the time and whatever useless little annoying things Samsung thinks you need to see like a totally useless personal fun message. But when there's no security at all you can put on whatever widget you want. I'm not sure why they went out of their way to remove the ability to have widgets with a secure lock screen. If only I could get a phone with a beautiful screen like the Note 3 without Samsung getting in the way. But I digress obviously.

You can only use the stock player...

My case is not turning off my phone when I close it. Is it because of a setting or is the case faulty?

I guess it's not for everyone, I love mine. I hate screen protectors but want my screen glass to be flawless. The flap protects my glass and also keeps face grease off the phone when you talk on it. The only downside of it on my S3 and Note 2 was that you had to open it every time the phone buzzed to see what it was. Now you can see/answer calls, read text messages, take pictures, play music, check time, weather, S health steps and all kinds of other stuff without ever opening the cover. I also like the added edge protection with out the bulk of a giant case.

The S3 and Note 2 flip covers weren't anywhere near as nice add this one. But the downside is that the flip part is so well made that you have to break it in for a while (hence the flap not staying closed). I use the hell out of mine so it's broken in now and the flap stays closed just fine.

Also, mine was only $45. You gotta know how to find the deals.

I found mine for 7$ I looked hard enough on amazon and got a good deal and it is in like new condition

Hello all to frustrated users of s view. The only way to disable s view is to cover with tape that two copper nodes inside
case. Works for me

i have the s view cover. Is built nice but i don't like that you can't edit the apps in the s window.

I think i will sell it and hope samsung releases their cover plus case.

Can the case work like a stand when watching movies?
