There is a new update for Nova out today and Tesla Unread too. Notice Tesla's readme says includes support for Outlook - might be worth updating and see if it fixes this incompatibility your currently having :)
Good plan

I found this cool case that mimics the Galaxy S6 look in the back.

It's on amazon UK too and there's a white one

How you finding it? As reviews for the product aren't good for the S5 version
It Looks great! It has the look of the S6. The back is a fingerprint magnet just like the S6. It comes in two parts and is very easy to put on. But it does add some width and thickness to the phone.

Guessing the case stays on ok?

I just put it on when I posted the pictures. Haven't had time to test that for too long but so far so good. I love the look of the case. But not loving the added weight and thickness.
it comes it two parts and fits in pretty snug.

You are going to love the case.

Wow that's really nice. It's too bad they ruined it with all that useless text on the back instead of keeping it clean though. Do you have to take off the plastic Samsung backplate? I wonder how much thickness it adds.

yeah i hate the white text on the sides. You do have to take of the back to get the case on. It does add a little extra bulk to the phone.

The text on the case/back of the phone is pretty goofy as well, hehe. Does taking the plastic case off make the case thinner? I've always wondered why no cases were ever made that just snap onto where the original cover goes to preserve thinness.

Any of you guys feel the note 4 is a bit heavy compared to the iphone 6 plus and s6?

I do sometimes. I have the N4 and IP6+. There is a difference in the 2 but not much. Sometimes the 6+ feels too thin. I really hope Apple doesn't try to make the 6s even thinner. It serves no purpose.

It definitely feels heavier, it feels a bit busier in the hand, but at the same time feels much better centered/balanced because it's not as tall. The ip6 has a much higher quality feel in the hand and I could fondle it all day long. The s6 is somewhere in between.

I feel the opposite, my Note 4 feels a tad thick after using my iPhone for a bit. I hope they can make the Note 5 as thin the S6, the thinner phones just feel better in the pocket and (as long as they're shaped right) in the hand.

Oh make no mistake I would like to see the N5 thinner lighter than the N4. Would love to see the N5 follow the S6 design too!

Be shocked if it isn't..there's no way Samsung will go away from glass and metal now. Not when even the budget tablets have that look.

I see the note 5 having the same build as S6 but will keep the SD card...and instead of removeable will just give us a bigger battery.

I think you nailed it. I don't think the N5 will have a removable back and battery either. I do hope the keep the SD card

That's exactly what I would like to see. Hope it comes true.

Great! You have to remove the existing backcover. The but on the frame...then the new backcover. Then be sure to use the silver lock button at the top to lock the frame and back cover in place.
