AYL (TM) Newest Generation Slim Capacitive iPad Stylus with 1 YR Warranty (Jet Black)

on amazon can't link

been using for awhile now really liking the smaller tip
[Kindle Fire Accessories] AtomicFizzle:
Has anyone tried the Amazon Basics Stylus yet? (AmazonBasics Stylus for Touchscreen Devices Including Kindle Fire, Apple iPad 2, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab, BlackBerry PlayBook)

I looked around for a little bit and ended up ordering this one (haven't received it yet). The Wacom one sounded pretty nice too, but at $25 is a little more than I wanted to invest in something that I will probably only mess around with every so often.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] tjrocks91:
what ROM are you guys using your styli on? i'm currently on the Jan30 ICS ROM and handwriting and sketching has been terrible using my Griffen stylus. Do you guys run the stock Kindle build or are you on CM7 or something? I'd really love to use the kindle fire as a note taking tool but everything I've tried so far on the ICS ROM has been terrible.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] ChaZnsc:
I tried the Wacom bamboo and was not at all impressed. The darn nib is so soft that the aluminum collar can scratch the glasses.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] Jessical:
Really? I LOVE mine.

I also have a Rocketfish as backup. I never use it though as I prefer the Bamboo as it glides better. It does have a smaller nib though and is easier to get into the little bitty areas...

Versus not using one:

Pretty good for navigating too.

Swisher Sweet Stylus

I don't know how many of you chief...but you can use a cigarillo still in the foil wrapper as a stylus. Lol. The more you know...:D

proof(not my vid):http://youtu.be/ZFXT0mXd2Sc
[Kindle Fire Accessories] aaron1006:
I thought about grabbing one but then I realized I would probably never use it haha. Anyways they had some at Staples for $15, which I thought was ridiculous, and they weren't even that nice :confused:
[Kindle Fire Accessories] kwakel:
Realizing you have probably already got this and it won't mean much to you specifically, I do have this stylus and it does work pretty well. I ordered it mainly because I fat finger a lot and this thing does help with precision. And it is easier to take notes and such with an annotator or hand writing app.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] ddgarcia05:
Can anyone provide updates with links to the stylus they have. Looking to pick one up off amazon but don't know which one to get.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] _ante_:
This it's the one I use:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005O2URES

I like that it has a lanyard that clicks into the headphone Jack.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] grvthang:
When you have it plugged into the headphones jack, doesn't that kill the speakers?
[Kindle Fire Accessories] Yuma75:
I too had the "fat finger" issue so invested in a stylus. Originally I bought the roocase version for like $8 or something, but it came apart after a couple of weeks.

Instead I went and purchased this one. It's well made and I've had no issue.

I took the headphone jack plug off of my old one and put it on this one. Keep it from getting lost....and no, it does not effect speaker output, it's just a plastic piece shaped like a plug so there's not actually any connection made.

[Kindle Fire Accessories] Radon_22:
I had a Griffin stylus that was my favorite. Then I tried the ZooGue. it's a lot more responsive and quite firm- much better for drawing and writing.

It's a steal at 4 bucks!
[Kindle Fire Accessories] ddgarcia05:
Link?
[Kindle Fire Accessories] ddgarcia05:
I bought a griffen stylus from target for $20. They're $8 on amazon, I wanted mine fast and didn't mind waiting.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] Radon_22:
Yup. Site is here.

Use the coupon code "FreeZooGueAccessory". Stylus is "free", shipping is $3.99.

I've bought two so far, and will probably grab another one.

Sent from behind the wheel of my car at 95 mph.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] jayman350:
Thanks for the heads up on the ZooGue, I've been looking for a stylus/pen combo but they were all way too expensive for something that I will only use occasionally, "free" is a much better price.

I have used a handful of stylus for my kindle fire, and I think the best one so far has been the one from Amazon basics. The tip has gotten a little soft after a few months of use, so it creates a slightly larger contact area than before, but it is still very manageable.

I tried one that had a brush tip, hardly worth it, constantly losing contact w/ the screen. Tried the big crayon/pencil looking one, stuttered across the screen and was pretty much unusable for anything other than tapping (I swype pretty much exclusively).

I wrote a pretty all-encompassing review on Amazon, but I can't post links yet, if I remember I'll add the link later
[Kindle Fire Accessories] Raiden619:
I'll have to look at which stylus to buy, there are so many different options
[Kindle Fire Accessories] option8:
any interest in pressure sensitivity?

On the topic of styli with Kindle Fire, I've developed a pressure sensitive stylus that will work with the Fire. I'm currently raising funds to commercialize it on Kickstarter:

kck.st/GDmhb8 (add in the http. i'm still too new to post actual links)

If you use your Fire for drawing and sketching, take a look, and maybe make a donation :)

Share and enjoy.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] BleedsOrangeandBlue:
Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered one on the off chance that I may want a stylus. I'm not even sure that I do, but for $4...
[Kindle Fire Accessories] collinsac24:
Just got three 2 days ago and they are already here and I really like em :)
[Kindle Fire Accessories] kadenstern:
Just ordered one of these, thanks for heads up on the "free" product!
[Kindle Fire Accessories] tokyostomp:
i'd bite if i could use paypal on the site.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] crispeto1:
I got a pen/stylus combo from ihome that works great. It reminds me a lot of the zoogue you showed. Looks very similar but the ihome is black. I don't know where to get them online but Marshall's has them for $5 so I got three. It's got a thinner tip which is what I like.

I wan to flash Tiamat-Kernel-Xoom-2.2.0-ocGPU. Only problem is i dont want my contacts or texts deleted. Not sure but will this kernel delete my data?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
No, a kernel will not delete any data.

Since there's "Xoom" in the title, I'm hoping you're flashing it on a Xoom and not an Evo. If you're flagging it on an Evo, you need the Supersonic build (or it might be labeled Evo 4G, not sure).

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
That kernel is for the Xoom tablet lol
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diablo67:
No.It will not erase your data.All you need to do is wipe your cache and dalvik cache,before and after install.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
If you flash that kernel, you could brick your evo, as that's for the XOOM, you need to flash the evo version of tiamat. When you flash a kernel you only wipe cache and the dalvik cache; your data won't be affected.

[Galaxy Spica General] punyategar:
Just go to forum.samdroid.net. spica users gather there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DirknJirkn13:
Nice thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
I changed the InCall volume only from 5 to 15 increments and the scrolling cache. I didn't see the need for any others since 15 is plenty for me. BT and Media for Pandora were already at 15.

I definitely love the incall change as sometimes you can't find the sweet spot. I definitely notice the scroll is smoother.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Yep... Now that I've been on the mod for a few days, I can say the scrolling is much smoother all around.

Great info on the volume increment change. Thanks for the feedback! Maybe I'll update this one too... heck I can add both and let folks choose! ;-)

Good teamwork on bringing these mods to the forum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ctbear:
Where are you guys seeing the most improvement? I applied the mod to MIUI 12.31 and can't really tell a difference...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
It's more of a subtle change. You won't see a change in some apps as the dev may have the scrolling cache hardcoded to be disabled. Others will see improvements. Stuttering and temp freezing are usually the symptoms. You need to give some time to determine where you're improvements occur.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] splttingatms:
Wow this is great. I was reading the changelog to SHOstock's rom and got a little jealous about the InCall volume mod.

Any possibility about creating a volume mod only?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
I could, but I'm not sure why you would want that. The scrolling mod won't hurt and can only help. The audio mods are more of a user preference though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Andrew149:
Thanks ive been waiting for a mod like this!

Edit just made a call to my buddy i can hear him alot better thanks guys!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
So the smooth scroll & volume 15 makes in call volume louder than the 7?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
The mod does not alter the volume level. It changes the number of increments (7 or 15) from zero to max volume level.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] splttingatms:
Okay you convinced me. Thanks for the mod!

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know why scroll caching would cause issues? Isn't caching suppose to increase accessibility times of frequently used information, thus making scrolling faster? Does this cause the phone to use more processes to force a redraw of all the scroll animations?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
This mod is only for UnNamed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Hey Red5...

Sorry for the delay... I fell asleep at 11 after watching the Gaints beat the Cowboys.

In general... the mod applies to anyone using UCKK6, but gtg made mods to the stock framework.jar. I modded from his v2.2.1 file to retain his original v2.2.1 mods. I'm not sure what would happen if you put these framework.jar files into a different ROM (it may not boot). I suppose if you were willing to be a guinea pig, you could try. I would strongly recommend making a revert CWM of your original framework.res before you try. You could use my revert and just replace the framework.res with yours. Once you have a revert CWM on your phone, you can give it a shot without worry.

I could mod the stock UCKH7 and UCKK6 files too, if there is interest in them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
It won't boot if the framework jar from another rom is tried with another. Even replacing the file with the original one won't undo the damage; it still wouldn't boot. You'd have to restore a backup file, which if you're going to try something like that, should definitely be made immediately prior. And be careful mixing up the framework jar with the framework res apk.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ya Boi D:
I was thinking the same thing.... :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
Thanks for this, working perfect on my end. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] encrypshun:
I installed only the smoothscroll mod and the transformation to the user experience has been remarkable, I hope gtg includes this in his ROM update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
I dunno.. maybe the AndroidON (author of the mod) would know? It works though!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
I bet you would get a lot of hits if you did.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Thanks for the feedback. Maybe all ROM devs start including the mod. :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
I, too, see a significant difference. I'm still on 1.3.1. of UnNamed, so I modded it myself. Thanks for sharing this, and continually making contributions to our community, Peaster :).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ya Boi D:
Does this mod break CRT animatiion? Also, any negative affect on battery life? TIA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
I believe CRT is in the framework-res apk; this modifies the framework jar. And I can't imagine that it'd negatively impact battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
Yes crt off is in framework-res. Crt on is in services.jar.... So no ill affects.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
I appreciate the feedback... you are also making a lot of great contributions too. Keep it up (that goes to Shoman too ;) ). I see a lot of great interactions on this forum. It is making the SGS2 really good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AndroidON:
You are right.

Scrollingcache is for faster scroll.

But it is not working correctly.

It makes android's garbage collector to work too much.

And it will pause the whole process of phone.

Disabling it will make garbage collecter work properly.

If you want to find it by yourself, just put revert to your stock rom

and watch for logcat while you scroll.

You can notice a difference between stock and moded.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
I've updated the post to include the UCKH7 and UCKK6 stock ROM's (deodexed and rooted versions).

I've pulled the InCall Volume increment change Mod, as it is causing an issue in

Google Voice. If we can resolve it I'll repost.

See Shoman's SHOStock thread starting at: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21011253&postcount=1074

Jivy and Shoman and have the mod included in their ROM's.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
If the feature were there, I'm sure it's there for a reason, and disabling it is going to have some sort of negative effects.

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.attr.html#scrollingCache - So this mod is going to reduce performance in general, but will remove pauses that result from memory management routines trying to reclaim memory.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
The question ultimately becomes weighing the pros and cons... like many things. Overall it has been a positive for many folks. The pro's have out weighed the any cons, so far, in the "end user" experience.

Nice reference material.. BTW. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 33t:
sorry dumb question....

UCKK6 Scroll mod is okay to flash for MIUI? My "about phone" says the baseband version is I777-UCKK6. Sc I can flash that mod right?

i'm still not totally clear on where MIUI for the ATT i-777 comes from. Any other ROM and i'd know the answer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Not a dumb question at all... and sorry for the delayed reply.

Possibly yes, but that is assuming the framework.jar file is the same. The phone may not boot fully if it is different. You'd be hurtin' if that happens

Can you pull the "framework.jar" from your phone and attach it to a post? I can either verify you can flash it or modify yours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 33t:
here. thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mgfjd:
you want to add gtalk having sound issues too..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
No baseband is just the modem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
I pulled the InCall mod version... If you flashed it, please reflash one of the non-InCall versions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Sure.. no problem. Which MIUI ROM are you running?

I'm at work now without any tools. I'll take care of it this evening.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 33t:
1.12.30

thanks again.

don't worry about this if it's too much trouble.

I was just wondering. thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
No worries.... It's easy to do. Others may want it too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 33t:
Awesome, I'll try tomorrow.

Regarding the MIUI 1.12.30 mod... installed fine and phone is booting. Beyond that, can't say as its only been 5 minutes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TechSilver13:
This works...no doubt. The bgr app use to lag when scrolling really bad. Now its pretty dang good! Awesome job!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
I'm glad it came up fine. Good luck and let me know what you think after a couple of days of use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Super... I appreciate the feedback. Bgr seems to be the litmus test.

Btw... What rom are you using?

Looks like you missed a ROM or two. Luckily it's a fairly easy mod so I'll incorporate it into mine when I get my replacement phone some time this week.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Sorry Cozmo... I did miss a couple. I was hoping this thread would just get the ball rolling and the ROM devs would start incorporating the mod.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
That is great, but the mod only effects scrolling. No changes to the audio.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
I just saw the update. I'll see if the framework.jar changed. If it hasn't, the mod is still good as is. I'll update otherwise.

the person on the other line must have been taking louder than last time. Probably because I've asked them several times to speak louder lol

Sent from my pimp'd out Samsung Galaxy S2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
The volume mod doesn't improve audio; it only increases the amount of steps from 0 to max, so that the change when increasing it is more gradual. It previously only had 7 steps from 0 to max; this makes it 15 (like the other volume levels). He pulled it because it caused some issues with Google Voice. Somebody also reported a problem with Talk video chat.

Sent from my Galaxy SII
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
The framework.jar is very specific to the ROM. I wouldn't assume they do. I can make one for CM7.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] manny05:
Oh I see. Do you know if anyone has made a mod to improve the in call audio?

Sent from my pimp'd out Samsung Galaxy S2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
I'm no aware of anyone making a mod for incall audio improvement. I've not heard of folks complaining about it either. Are you using either the UCKH7 or UCKK6 ROM? Do you have noise canceling on or off?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] manny05:
I'm using unnamed ROM. Their latest. I believe it's using uckk6

Sent from my pimp'd out Samsung Galaxy S2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Yep.. Unnamed 2.2.1 is based on UCKK6. Here's something to try, in case you aren't aware there is a noise suppression setting for calls. It is located in settings under call then additional settings. Try some calls with it on then off and see if that helps. Turning noise suppression on can be great in noisy environments, but can be perceived to reduce voice quality/volume in "normal" environments. I leave mine off.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
OP Updated...

Added SensatioN 3.0

Added UnNamed 1.3.2

Updated MIUI to 2.1.6v2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] splttingatms:
I'm thinking of modding UnNamed 1.3.2 to include the volume mod. Are there any other side effects besides Google Talk Voice? I don't use those apps so I don't mind lost functionality.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
The only one we noted was GT, but a "testing" was pretty light. Give it a shot. I've got the other mod and the revert. Put all of them on your phone before you try. That way if something goes wrong you have backups. Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
Looks like the in call volume mod is limited to only one level higher. 0x6t is the highest level before it effect google voice and in call alerts. So that's only one up from stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] biofilter69:
will this work with the cm7 nightly or just 7.2-rc0?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Thanks.. It effects in call alerts too? 0x6t is not much a of change.

The mod I put together is based on the 7.2-rc0. It may work on later releases, if the framework.jar doesn't change. I cannot vouch for that. The CM7 nightlys change too often to keep up with.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
No its not but even one extra helps some and for some reason it seems louder then before so IDK.... I need more time to test with some callers I normally have to have it maxed out on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peaster111:
Gotcha.. Seems kinda weird that it would make it louder. I guess we really don't know the ramifications of changing it. Let me know what ya come up with.

It worked with the latest nightly!!! Great mod thanks
