Best pocket lint proof case?

Question, what is the best case for my brand-new iPhone 4 Verizon? Specifically one that protects against pocket lint and short drops.
LifeProof cases are not for me... The screen protection is too squishy, they use a polyvinyl cover that requires effort to interact with the screen, it is waterproof and a little too lifeproof
I have an iFrog case now... needless to say it collects pocket lint very quickly... thus scuffing and scratching the back glass and metal sides. I used a spare iPhone as a guinea pig to see what happened with the iFrog.
I am looking at otterbox commuter... but I cannot tell if it protects from lint around the speaker/mic/charging cable. What are your thoughts?

All the other cases are going to let lint and dirt in between the phone and the case, which will eventually scratch up your phone. I love my LifeProof, got used to the screen very quickly. Plus I love taking underwater photos.

    is there a life proof case that accommodates the camera and flash on the iphone 5s?

    I think stedman1 met to say no 16g has a back camera and flash. The iPod 5 32g and 64g have both front and back cameras, and the back camera does have a flash.

  • Do the life proof cases for the iPhone 5 also work for the 5s?

    Do the life proof cases for the iPhone 5 also work for the 5s or are the cases different for the 5s?
    Thanks!

    Do cases made for iPhone 5 also work with iPhone 5s?
    While iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s have the same shape and size, the camera and LED flash are different. So cases made for iPhone 5 may affect the camera operation on iPhone 5s, and vice versa. When shopping for cases, you should choose one specifically made for the iPhone model you own.

  • Loud feedback squeal during phone calls on iPhone 5 in life proof case, has anyone else had this issue?

    I have had my IPhone 5 for one week and just installed it in a life proof case. After installing it in the case I started getting a loud feedback squeal while talking on the phone. There was no squeal when the phone was not in the case so I suspect the case is causing the reaction. I work in construction so this case is a must to keep the phone safe. Has anyone else had this issue or is there a solution so that my phone can remain in the case?

    I have the same problem, guess i'll try it without the case and see.

  • Best iPhone 5 Battery Case

    I just ordered an iPhone 5 and was interested in possibly getting a battery case. I had the 4S and unfortunately the battery life really didn't cut it, It would drain in less then 5 hours. (Hopefully the iPhone 5 is better than that to begin with.)
    So my question is, what is the best iPhone 5 battery case? I'm looking for something sleek and not too bulky. I took a look at the mophie helium/air but it seems like it makes the phone look outrageously tall.

    ive tried a bunch - i actually like the mophie - there are a bunch you can find on amazon - just search uphone 5 battery cases
    ivyskin
    ww,ivyskin.com
    makes one that has a detachable battery so you only need to attach the battery when needed - it also has a builtin screen protector - i had one for my 4S and they now have one for the 5 - product is not bad but customer service was awful
    a company called third rail mobility
    www.thirdrailmobility.com also has a case with a detachable battery (no builtin scren protector)  with thir case you can stack multiple batteries to get more power - of course it makes the case big and heavy - last time i looked they had not yet released their case for the iphone 5 though

  • Dust Proof Cases

    I am a Carpenter.  Minute pieces of sawdust are always my worst enemy everyday.  I have the otterbox defender, but that lets sawdust in. Eventually scratches my glass because it rubs between the screen protector.
    I need a case where all ports are fully covered, or plugged.  I will sacrafice some of the use of the phone for dust proof quality.  There are finally some other companies making cases like these.  I wanted to get some opinions of anyone who has tried some dust proof cases.

    i have a life proof case my phone was in a hot tub for 30 sec and it turned its self off and wont turn back on what do i do ??

    You can try putting it in bag with rice for about 4 or 5 days and the try to turn it on.  The rice will help the drying of the iPhone.  Do not attempt to turn it until you take it out of the rice.
    If it does not work after the rice, then you know you have to replace the iPhone.  This is very likely so after 30 seconds in a hot tub, but do give the rice a try.  If you can get a hold of some silica crystals, a better drying agent than rice, that would be good too.

    Number of full blocks with no free space                              = 99848           -------> total bytes = 780,0625
    Total blocks ______________________________
    99923
    Total size MB______________________________
    799,384It seems for me that this index needs to be either coalesced or compressed.
    Then, what would be the best option in your opinion?
    Thanks in advance

    So let me continue my case
    I first compressed the index as follows
    alter index my_index rebuild compress 2;which immediately presents two new situations
    (a) index space
    Number of blocks with at least 0 to 25% free space    = 0                -------> total bytes = 0
    Number of blocks with at least 25-50% free space      = 40              -------> total bytes =, 3125
    Number of Blocks with at least 50 to 75% free space   = 0                -------> total Bytes = 0
    Number of blocks with at least 75 to 100% free space  = 0                -------> total bytes = 0
    Number of full blocks with no free space                = 32361           -------> total bytes = 252, 8203125
    Total blocks ______________________________
    32401
    Total size Mb______________________________
    259,208meaning that the compress command freed up 67487 leaf blocks and reduced the size of the index from to 799,384 MB to 259,208 MB.
    It also shows a relative nice pictue of number of keys per leaf block (when compared to the previous situation)
    (b) on the number of key per leaf block
    KEYS_PER_LEAF     BLOCKS       
    4     1       
    6     1       
    13     1       
    15     1       
    25     1       
    62     1       
    63     1       
    88     1       
    97     1       
    122     1       
    123     3       
    124     6       
    125     4       
    126     2     
    289     4489       
    290     3887       
    291     3129       
    292     2273       
    293     1528       
    294     913       
    295     442       
    296     152       
    297     50       
    298     7       
    299     1      In a second step, I have coalesced the index as follows
    alter index my_index coalesce;which produces the new figure
    Number of blocks with at least 0 to 25% free space     = 0          -------> total bytes = 0
    Number of blocks with at least 25-50% free space      = 298        -------> total bytes = 2,328125
    Number of Blocks with at least 50 to 75% free space   = 0           -------> Total Bytes = 0
    Number of blocks with at least 75 to 100% free space = 0            -------> total bytes = 0
    Number of full blocks with no free space = 32375                    -------> total bytes = 252, 9296875
    Total blocks ______________________________
    32673
    Total size MB______________________________
    261,384meaning the the coalesce command has made
    (a)     298-40 = 258 new blocks with 25-50% of free space
    (b)     32375-32361 = 14 new additional blocks which have been made full
    (c)     The size of the index increased by 2,176MB (261,384-259,208)
    While the number of key per leaf block keeps in the same situation
    KEYS_PER_LEAF     BLOCKS       
    4     2       
    5     3       
    9     1       
    10     2       
    12     1       
    13     1       
    19     1       
    31     1       
    37     1       
    61     1       
    63     1       
    73     1       
    85     1       
    88     1       
    122     1       
    123     4       
    124     4       
    125     3       
    126     1     
    289     4492       
    290     3887       
    291     3125       
    292     2273       
    293     1525

    295     441       
    296     152       
    297     50       
    298     7       
    299     1      Could you please through some light on the difference between the compress and the coalesce on the effect they have made on
    (a) the number of keys per leaf blocks within my index
    (b) the space and size of my index?
    Best regards

  • Bit by Mountain Lion's Time Machine bug - how to proceed best in the simpler cases?

    My MacBook Air mid-2012 had never been updated to Mavericks.  I had backed it up just a week before a big coffee spill that killed it (June 2014).
    I finally got a replacement never-before-used 2012 Macbook Air running Mountain Lion (great to make the Time Machine restore seamless).
    That's when I tried "Restore from Time Machine" and it showed the "last full backup" as being from June 2013!!!  Then in Migration Assistant, couldn't locate my disk.  I've been bitten by the "Exclusion" bug and my Library/ Applications / System folders have not been backed up since a year ago.  I'm one of the ones that "found out after it was too late." 
    So I'll try the workaround.  Thanks to Pondini for his great website:
    http://pondini.org/TM/D10.html
    http://pondini.org/TM/D10r.html
    My plan is to restore from Time Machine to my 2013 full system.
    Then swap out the Users folder to bring it up to date to the June 2014 version that I have backed up.
    Luckily I have only one user account so this can't get TOO complicated.
    After that, I'll reset Time Machine and check it periodically via the Command-R trick to make sure it's backing everything up fully.
    Still, I'm left with a few questions/concerns that I'm hoping Pondini or others can help to allay before I proceed....
    -What will I have lost in a year from those folders that did not back up?  I know I may have lost non-Mac applications that I downloaded and also any software updates to said applications.  What problems might I encounter in the way of error messages, etc.?  I feel like i don't understand the contents of these folders well enough to realize how in trouble I'm in (or not) regarding these folders being out-of-date by a whole year.
    -Is it really as simple as swapping out the Users folder on the new system with my most recent backup from June 2014?  Any hiccups I should expect from this process?  Will all of my photos go back into iPhoto?  Will all of my mail files go back into the Mail app?  Or in these cases, is there something I need to initiate to smooth out this process?  Photos and Mails are the two big concerns; as for the other stuff, I have yet to find out if it's relevant until a problem occurs.
    -Once I have restored Apps/Systems/Library to the 2013 backup and Users to the 2014 backup, then what?  I'll reset Time Machine but then should I assign it to the new computer?  Should I tell it to inherit the new computer?  Should I wipe it clean and start fresh?  How to proceed after so that I don't have more and more problems down the line, and hopefully don't lose any of the data that I at least have managed to save/restore up to now...
    Thanks in advance for any help and sorry if I'm not more clear; I'm not so technologically literate so I'm not sure how best to phrase these things to get my point across.
    And special shout out to Pondini who made the discovery of this bug a lot easier to stomach thanks to your helpful website.

  • Best Approach for Use Case

    Experts,
    I am creating a small POC for a search engine. I am thinking on what is the best way to achieve the below scenario
    1) Assume like in Google i am entering some data in the text box. I want the area below the text box to show the records (leaving aside from where the records is fetched - DB or flatflies) based on user input values and change as an when new characters are entered or deleted.
    I guess contextual events clubbed together with regions will help me in this but i need to know if i am thinking in the right direction.
    2) My other page has registration which contains 3 sections (logically) say Emp, Dept, Country. All the EO have validations defined on them. Now the user can only enter Emp details and proceed, or Dept details and proceed. So in such a case how do i skip the other section validations.
    I guess sub forms can help me in this
    Please advise.
    Jdev 11.1.1.4 and beyond.

    Hi,
    you didnot get the article..I explains the wizard type interface with next functionality where validations is not fired at first but during at commit time.....
    When i commit how do i make sure that only Transaction level validation is fired for the tab/section of one Entity only ?That article don't meet your usecase.....
    SkipValidation will only skip validations when you need to navigate along with immediate="false"(default), but it wont allow you to commit unless and until your eo validates.
    I guess SkipValidation set to Custom would help me Wrong..
    Lets say i have a page with 3 tabs or a single page with 3 sections each sowing data from diff EO. Each EO having validations defined on them.In that case you need to supress the validation of that eo using some flag workaround .. as i explained you in my previous post !!
    just set the flag to 'DRAFT' to supress the validation of that eo before commit..
    Using it as EntityLevel script validator would be better.
    Regards,

  • Best MB or MBP case

    Which MB or MBP case do you think is the best?

    I have a 'Second Skin' by Tucano for the MacBook itself. I love it because it has a little flap inside so the Mac is protected against the zipper.
    And then I have a LeBag PowerBook 15” from be.ez. It's amazing. Great quality in the details, and I can use it if I change to a 15.4" laptop (or MacBook Pro). I can carry all the MacBook stuff +books, Dvds or whatever is compact from the outside but it holds a lot of things.
    I've bought them from Spain's Apple Store Website.
    I recommend both, superb quality.
