[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3GATROLL:
this tutorial is for those who broke the window of their galaxy and whose touch screen still works.

What you need:

- A small Phillips screwdriver

- A small plastic tool such pick

- A hair dryer

- Double-sided tape (3M brand is perfect)

- A cutter

- The solvent (or white spirit, see below)

- A glass replacement example HERE (it looks like a label because it does not have the samsung logo, but in fact it really is a samsung with the logo ...)

- The cup is useless

The first step is to remove the entire note. To do this, go HERE. This tutorial is perfect.

Note, however, the tutorial above stops before even disconnected the power screen sound support. (you will see it later)

Once disassembled, start to heat the block display. I heated 10 minutes without interruption before attempting to take off the glass.

I used a hair dryer classic on speed 1 (not the highest) to 3 or 4 cm from the surface of the glass.

Then, to start off the glass, I gently pushed from behind by the small hole in the front camera with the Phillips screwdriver. You will begin to see the window that comes off of the screen.

The glass began to take off, so, I had enough space to slide the pick into the gap and tried to take off most surface possible.

This is where I realized that the tutorial disassembly was not complete because, at this moment, it is the block that is off screen support, and it surprises!.

From there, I re-heated alternately with dry hair off piece by piece to all my broken window. (more 1 hour..). Samsung did not skimp on the adhesive layer ...

We must go slowly.

Remember to remove all pieces of glass (tiny) that may remain around the button or in the corners of the media.

Once all the pieces of glass are loose you to a screen full of glue residue. I thought it was ruined and I was going to throw it away. Lost lost, I told myself that I could try everything.

We must take the White Spirit, because he is fat as fuel it becomes embedded in the glue and rub with a cotton pad and give the rest of glue, and the surface becomes as if it has never been in contact with the glue.

Now it only remains to install the new glass and reassemble.

I never managed to find the info on the glue used by Samsung, nor any other type of glue used. So I told myself that I would use the 3M double sided tape that I had been provided with the toolkit.

The tape provided with the kit is designed by default to iphone, I cut the pieces to the cutter size that interested me and I placed in the corners and around the Home button.

I installed my glass easily, pressing well in places where I put scotch and I have put the entire phone.

I turn on my Note and TRIPLE JACKPOT there ..... everything works, although the window is not in direct contact with the touchscreen, there is NO difference, everything is fluid, everything works as before!

result:

this tutorial is not mine, it comes from a French forum.

but it can be very useful ...

I hope you will never need to use it.

I just don't get it. Why do people refuse to use decent cases and screen protectors and when they drop and break their phones they are surprised? Why do they believe in marvelous Gorilla Glass that is simply some kind of hardened glass. It lies in the nature of glass that it shatters when force is applied. Glas = fragile. Applying enough force even bulletproof glass can be shattered. I use a massive Noreve case plus a screen protector. I dropped the phone once, I'd say it was approximately 1 or 1.5 meters and the surface was concrete. Now my case is scratched but guess what, the phone isn't. That's something we have to accept. Never drop a unprotected smartphone with a touchscreen made of glass, it almost certainly won't survive. Have you ever realized how many people carry iPhones with shattered screens?

Yes my dear mate I have the same issue too. I bought a note 2 with one year warranty but in a couple of days it slipped from my pocket when I was driving even from 1 to 2 feet in the car. Now it's touch is damaged. I inquired the warranty but they refused they say there's just software warranty not hardware.

By the way I used iphone for five years and it slipped and dropped many times but never crack or crash screen.

Before iphone I used windows smart phones like i-mate etc. for many years but never get any problem like this.

Now I'm using it but need repair but touch screen still not available in pk.

Please all use silicon cover for ur device. I know every device has a life and its not good to be overprotective. But atleast we can care about the things we use the most and on daily basis.

I have broken the screen of my note after owning it for 2 weeks :(

But i do not blame the phone , i do not believe there are much phone screens that will survive falling into the sliding mechanism of a van door and being squashed by the rolling mechanism .

It did still function , but the screen was completely filled with cracks.

After this incident and getting a replacement screen of 200€ i decided to buy a solid , good quality flipcase .

I now have my note 8 months and even the screen protector is scratch free.

Screen replacement

I have the same problem and no place around were i live have the glass ,and the one place i did talk to told me i will need to buy the whole assembly of glass and LCD screen because there is no way to just replace the crystal? is this accurate or they are just trying to make me buy something else to make there life easy? my touch screen works fine and i can do anything with my phone except that it looks like crap because the screen broke in the top right and bottom left corners.

Has anybody tried to replace like in the tutorial a page back?

or do i have to replace the whole assembly including the LCD?

I also called Samsung they say that my warranty is voided because of the broken screen? go figure and i have to pay to get it fix, the charge $179+ but its cheaper than buying the whole LCD thing and done by the makers of the phone.

So guys any other options ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iron Doktor:
I've had my note for 10 months and I've dropped it 4 times now, including once onto the sidewalk. Each time the phone survived without a scratch to the screen (small dent on the casing around it), and all I have on it is the Samsung flipcase. It's probably just sheer luck, but I'm very impressed with how tough it is.

Hey guys,

Soo a friend of mine gave me his Optimus 3D cause I said I would try to fix it.

He said he did a system update and afterwards it would just boot in recovery.

So he has Clockworkmod installed so I just tried loading a new rom and flashing it via. recovery, but it does not work, still only boots in recovery.

Any Idea on how to fix this? I just have a HD2 but no Optimus 3D.

Would be very thankful for any answers.

Regards

why not try factory reset and wipe system and cache...etc from the recovery menu?

Coming from a device running launcherpro over to stock ICS I was wondering if there is a way to make the Calendar widget display a list of events for the upcoming month? Right now all it shows is the current day and any events for that day.

I like being able to quickly look at the widget to see what my schedule is like for the next few days so this is totally lacking for me. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vegas_Sirk:
^ it seems like it shows correctly for everyone else. I have 3 calendars and nothing is showing for me. Any ideas?

I am selling off my 2 year old HTC Legend tomorrow. I want to buy a new Android phone with atleast

1GHz processor

Adreno 205 or better GPU [I wont play games on it, I have iPod Touch 4G for that]

WVGA upwards resolution

5MP camera AF

Android 4.0 ICS support and loads of Custom ROMs! :)

The options in my range are,

1. SE Xperia Neo V

2. Samsung Nexus S

Why isn't the SGS2 on your list?

I just made the switch to it, and can attest to the pure love that it exudes. :-)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
it's called budget concious ;)

all the ones listed above are under $400

SGS2 is at least over that

so from that list

the only worthy phone to buy now is the Nexus S that will get the official ICS4

all the other ones are "you might get ICS4, but most likely never" list ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Potato13:
I would choose the optimus 2x over the nexus s since it's dual core and nexus s is not and they will both be getting ics. My dad has a nexus s and trust me, dual core phones make a huge difference in the speed and snappy-ness of the phone lol. I don't know much about the SE phones.. but you can look them up and compare them easily. Good luck :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asifisbest:
Which GPU is faster? Adreno 205 or SGX540? Which phone will get first ICS based ROM? I am finalizing between Neo V and Nexus S.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sean is here.:
check out Amazon. I think for about $30 more, you could probably score the SGS2.

Both SE phones will receive ICS port soon, and SE released and public Alpha of it.

What would everyone suggest as far as custom ROM as the best one for least amount of RAM consumption throughout everyday use be it: games, apps (in general), phone, texting, etc. but still not really have to worry about opening task manager and tapping clear memory in the RAM tab after exiting apps?

I saw the other posts about RAM consumption but those are for other phones/tablets, I am posting in regards to my USCC Samsung Mesmerize SCH-i500 on 2.3.4 GB in particular, currently using just rooted stock ROM, nothing special (deodexed/debloated and/or themed).

After pressing clear memory it goes down to 211MB/348MB is there even a custom ROM that could manage to make it better?
[Samsung Mesmerize] mrtwisty:
I run Awesome Sauce 10.5 with voodoo leankernel v. 1.5. The author has configured it with memory in mind. My phone used to run around 300mb, now it hovers at just over 200mb.

There are also optimizations for 3g & wifi built in through Jakesmod. I used my Mesmerize pretty heavy (mp3 player 4-6 hrs, phone average 2hrs, internet 2-3 hrs.) during the course of 12 hours and the battery usually holds up. For average to light use I have gotten 22+ hours on a charge.

The only known issue I have is the Bluetooth, currently it is not working. The dev knows about the issue.
[Samsung Mesmerize] Xeno Templar:
Thanks for the quick reply, I'm downloading those now, just for FYIs Awesome Sauce has been updated to 10.6

[Samsung Mesmerize] Dreddwulf88:
I'm running MIUI v1.12.30 from the forums here and I'm very impressed with the show of the ROM. It has folder creation capabilities much like the iPod/iPhone, which is very nice if you like a condenced screen and my RAM hovers around 150 to 125 and I've got several games and memory management programs installed including Autokiller and JuiceDefender which help, but the phone does run a lot faster from what I've seen. I have a few issues with it that I'm working to get resolved but all in all it is a great ROM for my first selection. Hope that helps!

My personal favorite is Awesome Sauce. I run version 10.5 with the KGB FA-16 kernel. This is a super stable, super fast GB Rom. Stripped of the US Cell garb & with autorun manager going I usually hover with free memory between 160-180MB. I've flashed alot of Roms but always come back to the Sauce!

Why is the counter bothering you so much, are you sending the phone back to samsung?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
No, there is currently no other way. However, reverting to the older bootloader (see Intratech's stock ROM thread) should allow your USB jig to reset the counter.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GalaxynexusVZW:
I am getting this for my son for christmas and was just wondering how long I should charge it for the first time? I believe that you are supposed to run the battery down to 0 then charge fully, but for how long? I know that we have plenty going on on christmas day and I dont want his phone dying on him and him not being able to use it because it has to charge for 9 hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voxigenboy:
when the light turns green it's fully charged.

if you want to do a full charge then yeah.. wait for it to say 'low battery' or die completely, then charge it till it turns green.

easy way of killing the battery fast is leaving LTE on & the screen on while letting it play a video or a game.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] system6:
The run down to 0 thing is not true with lithium ions. It comes about 60% charged. I say leave it alone until Christmas eve, put it on the charger over night, and you will be good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GalaxynexusVZW:
OK, how is battery on the device?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] craighwk:
Do NOT let the phone die to 0%. It's best to charge it as soon and as often as possible. Letting it die completely hurts more than it helps, although it is sometimes useful to do when you want to calibrate the it (once a month max).

Mine came at 40% and I just started using it right away. They say to let it charge fully and sit for a few extra hours, but I never do. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mike2518:
What green light are you talking about? I haven't seen any green light when charging mines.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Actually, the discharging/charging thing when the battery's new is a good practice, even for Lithium-Ions. Not for the battery's sake, but so that the phone battery monitoring is as accurate as possible. Helps to give better figures.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paOol:
you can always just wipe battery stats in clockwork recovery to recalibrate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] apratomo:
You know, that green light... which we don't have!

Yeah no indicator or what so ever. Just text on lock screen says charged means its full. If you charge it while phone is off lightly tap power button it will show big battery icon on the middle of the screen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GalaxynexusVZW:
How long does it take to get a full charge?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meilannu:
From 0 to full charge it takes a couple of hours for my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] compywiz:
Two hours here on AC.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aflac01:
If you install Light Flow you should be able to set it up so the light lets you know when its charged....though personally i have light flow turn off the notification light when its charging...i dont like extra lights flashing when im sleeping

And speaking of battery, does anyone know good calibrating procedures? Would it be the same as i would do for my Charge?

I just got the el13 rom with el13 modem and my phone is pretty darn slow I checked quadrant too and the score was 657 when before it would be anywhere from 3000-5000

rebooted and got 3457 but the actual system is still slow? thought this was supposed to be faster?

the screen timed out...it turned the phone off....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drksilenc:
did u do the format all?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
I would try a reset. Directions at the "HowTo's" link in my signature if you aren't familiar. Doesn't wipe anything or make any personal/OS data changes.

I did the format all

and btw do you mean the hands free activation? that really doesnt wipe any accounts or settings?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I am reading posts in several threads that the EL13 ROM just feels slower than EK02. I am currently only using the modem so I can't personally confirm that now but I have read about it on 3 different ROMs now

followed the battery calibration stuff and its all faster..im sure it just needed a couple of reboots but it seems fine ..uh oh jynxed it didnt I ..****

is there a way to go back to EK02 modem from EL13?

Out of all the new chips coming out, Tegra3 seen as the best.

www.androidauthority.com/qualcomm-s4-vs-nvidia-kal-el-vs-ti-omap-4470-vs-samsung-exynos-4212-26636/

[UPDATE] 4/20/2012

This week Nvidia has announced its newer Tegra3+ chips to be released that will have Icera voice over LTE radios in them. They will be called T3+. This will split off into the Wayne and Gray variants by Q3. The grey is the one THST will have the LTE radio. This makes nvidia the likely candidate and replacement for all tablets and mobile phones this year That was going to use Qualcomm S4 Snapdragon chip. Also once Q4 & Q1 of 2013 arrives, Tegra4 will be rolling out ;)

QUALCOMM just officially announced it won't be able to make demand this year for the S4 chip due to manufacturing processes involving the 28nm S4 chip. So most tablets and phones that were originally going to use that chip will have to use a a different one. This is were Nvidia will likely step in and take over. I posted the link to that qualcomm news in the infinity pad thread. Its all over the major tech sites now though, so take a look if you doubt that news.

This is the link to the new Tegra3 aka T3+ that will arrive shortly.

Cool read, thanks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tdrussell:
I don't know, i think it may be a wash. Tegra3 seems like a more intelligent architecture, and nV seems to have nailed the implementation.

It's hard to argue the power usage of 28nm, but for some reason i don't see any roadmapped 28nm quad-cores out there, so it looks like T3 may edge out the high-clocked 28nm chips through this summer. performance/watt definitely belongs to T3 for the time being.
