I understand, but its just the fact that its only 3 weeks old.. and if it was 2 weeks old, you could terminate your whole order with them and also cancel your renewal contract.

and just simply resign again to get a different phone. you could it do for how ever many time you please. as long as the phone is in good condition and less than 30 min talk time.

Bought and used the flip cover for less than a month, it looks nice and all but I have decided to return it.

The reason being is the edge where it folds is starting to crack.........not that high of a quality if you ask me.

It should be in Location Settings -> Use wireless networks. Otherwise you can disable it in specific apps asking for your location ie Map's/Chrome.

That sucks. If you like pouches, I suggest the official Samsung Galaxy Note II pouch. It's slimmer and probably better than a case/cover IMHO.

No, I get a error when I try to.

Edit:

Try this:

Under the "New product registration" button click on "more", then on that page try to register.

Worked for me.

Im using the Nillkin case, the fit and finish is excellent. The case is not the slimmest by any means but still very slim. The back of the case is textured which gives it added grip but I just wish the sides of the case were also textured.

If you look at the past replies, people pretty much have stated what they are using.

If your looking for an opinion, please ask a question comparing cases if your looking for one.

No, that's the first I've ever heard of that issue. When I bought my Kingston 32GB microSD, I never formatted it. Just popped it in and away I went. That's like since I got my Xperia Play a long time ago.
