[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ManicDVLN:
I scratched my galaxy note screen with the S pen, I always keep my screen clean and I was playing "Draw Something" on it and while drawing for a second i felt a sandy grinding pressure when I used the pen, the next day I noticed I had scratched it.

My old DS and DS lite were also susceptible to this, but this thing has freaking gorilla glass and gets scratched by its own pen. It's a tiny scratch but noticeable only on bright backgrounds when using phone.

So be warned, I suggest not using the pen at all unless you have a protective film on it.

What's worse since it is gorilla glass it is next to impossible to polish the scratch out unless you have industrial equipment.

Ridiculous
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] DPMAce:
thanks. I use my pen for Draw Something as well. But I do have a screen protector on there. Yeah it's really dumb that the pen can scratch the screen.

I'm just a bit disappointed by the build quality of my note. Considering I paid almost 700 usd for it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] skyhigh2004:
The s pen physically cannot scratch the screen. The tip is not hard enough to do that period. If you have a minute piece of dirt/sand that's a hard mineral, which is easy to find in a pocket, on the screen when you use the pen the mineral under the tip of the pen can scratch the screen. Its very easy to do and happens all the time. Gorilla glass is scratch proof such as regular glass, but only scratch proof to certain things. A glass screen which by composition is a mineral of some type can be scratched by other minerals.

Still doesn't change the fact that if you use S Pen, your screen will be scratched.

My old Nexus S never had any problems, and no protection. Never scratched. I guess this is why Steve Jobs hated pens.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] skyhigh2004:
Lol you miss the point I see. You could do the same scratching with your finger if the dirt/hard mineral gets under your finger. It could happen to any phone you just happened to be unlucky. I've been using the pen hardcore for almost 2 weeks now and the naked screen is immaculate. Clean the screen regularly and most people are just fine.

Edit: also just an fyi the ns had a softer screen than the note so the only reason why the note scratched versus the ns is the environment you keep it in and use it in.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] MonkRX:
Wacom would never intentionally design a pen nib that would scratch (hardened) glass.

Basically, a harder than glass foreign object came between the pen nib and screen, therefore scratching it. That is why its standard practice in labs to use disposable cleaning tissues for cleaning microscope lenses - its far less likely to have foreign contaminants with disposables.

That is also why eye glasses and sun glasses tend to come with silk-like cleaning cloths as opposed to (superior) microfiber cloth. Silk is far less likely to "catch" and hold debris. So its less likely that you'll scratch anything after the second, third, and fourth uses.

This topic is a good warning, nonetheless. But its a bit misleading to blame the pen. The pen nib just opens the possibility of scratching. Its a (very) minute chance, but its higher than simply using your finger for using the screen.

tl dr:

Pen nib alone cannot scratch the screen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] anonymous572:
This is complete nonsense and looks like bull****. I many times strongly press S Pen on screen. I like some "action" games for S Pen, like "Fruit Ninja: PiB" and move my S Pen across the screen like crazy. Never got any scratches.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ManicDVLN:
I thought the same thing when other people had their screen scratched, I was like what did they do with it... and now I got a scratch and can't believe it's from normal usage. Don't get me wrong, it's an excellent phone but gorilla glass for now is just a marketing gimmick.

Use protection guys.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] husker91:
Lol, this guys either trolling or just plain ignorant...

If gorilla glass were a gimmick, it wouldn't be used by the best names in phones, namely HTC and Samsung. It is much stronger and more scratch resistant than plain glass.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] aalupatti:
i have used s pen to take notes almost every day for more than 5 months and no single scratch from the pen.

unfortunately i did get some scratches from my keys ( ;-( )

hes not missing the point.. hes delivering it IMO.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Thor:
I have a screen protector on my Gnote, the s-Pen scratches the hell out of it, In fact I had to replace it already because it had so many scratches.

I have too use the s-pen less and less because of this and it's frustrating. I contacted Samsung about this and the guy on the phone just kept saying they had a galaxy note there and the pen wasn't scratching the screen. Basically he couldn't get with the concept that mine could. Tried asking him if they would sort out a new pen, me thinking it's the pen that is at fault, but he was less than helpful in that regard.

Anyway, I can't really use the pen, I do but it does scratch the protector and I have to replace it after awhile. It come be a cheap screen protector, but I felt it was scratching the screen before hand as well.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] aalupatti:
ur talking about scratching the screen protector but it does not scratch the actual screen.

One of the best screen protector i used was matinfields(http://www.martinfields.com/). I used that with sonyericsson P800 and p910. not a single scratch with lots of mucking around on the screen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] cybriks:
Yes, the s-pen can scratch the screen, if there is sand/dust/grain (insert mineral of choice) between the tip and the screen. But then, everything can scratch the screen in that situation ;-)

My Ipad (no flame-war, please) has a bunch of scratches as well, just due to that reason. Personally I still choose to use screen protectors for that very reason. After having tested a bunch of different makes, I always return to Invisible Shield.

Looks really ugly during the first weeks of use (the pen doesn't scratch the protector but leaves visible pressure marks, meaning that you can see what you wrote)

After several weeks of use, those pressure marks are distributed evenly over the entire screen area and no longer noticeable...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] oc_masta:
everyone relax, the op is just pointing out the s pen can scratch the screen and to be careful.

you have to use your own head with this, anything you use can is susceptible to wear and scratch.

just use your head and stick a screen protector on it if you want to keep the glass mint!!!! stop blaming samsung or the OP for blasting the s-pen, its no ones fault, its the real world!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] kivine:
sigh... the stupidity of some of the users in the Note sub- forum here is very much astounding....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] skyhigh2004:
Except that its not the note or s pens fault the OP and others get dirt/foreign object under the pen and then blame someone else other then themselves when they scratch the screen. Its not the notes screen or the pens fault you can't keep the screen and pen clean people. The title of this thread is misleading.

The pen won't scratch your screen, if there's dust on it, then the pen could push the dust into the screen and the dust might scratch it. Keep the screen and pen clean and it shouldn't be a problem.

I saw some others lamenting the loss of their N1 neoprene sleeves with the Droid on them.

This guy on ebay sells them:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nitemare3219:
Bought.

I can't tell you enough how much I hate getting pocket lint all over my phone, especially in its case (have to take it off to get it all off). Drives me NUTS!

Hopefully this pouch is large enough to accommodate a case. But if not, maybe I'll just start to rock it naked :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheMarvelous:
I bought this sleeve, doesn't seem to fit my Nexus. Not sure if the same seller, but the design is exactly the same.

Also took heeeeeeeeeeeeellla long to come. But thats to be expected from like Hong Kong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
Got some pics of the fit and the interior of the case? I've been seeing a lot of these on ebay, and people have been reporting most of the time they don't quite match up to the quality of the actual N1 sleeve. I want something that's going to last for 2 years and I'm hesitant to get one of these until I see someone prove that at least one of the ebay knockoffs is actually decent.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thepawn:
I've been using mine for about a month now and its been great. It's not quite as "soft" as the orignal N1 pouch but it has a snug fit which I like. At $5 I wasn't expecting much, so it's beaten my expectations.

Download minimalistic text widget from store.

Put the widget on the home screen and then open it.

Scroll down to Start another activity and press below.

Scroll down through activities down to pen settings and select it, it has the Google system robot icon and press OK.

Go back to the home screen widget and there it is.

It seems that its going to be a later feature and I can guess that HTC will only impliment it once they release an expensive accessory.

Just got this nipple stylus from ebay its small and compact fits nice and firm in your 3.5mm so it isnt going to slip out anytime soon also it doesnt protrude too much to worry about , aswel audio out isnt affected so you can still play music out of your loudspeaker

The tips made of soft silicon so its really soft and glides across the screen very easily, the phone registers all the touches and swipes without a hitch

Its small size is convenient but if you have large fingers it can be annoying luckily though if u have a 3.5mm adapter lying around anywhere plug it in and your good to go

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tmb04:
Hi a friend of mine wants to trade his Epic 4g Touch for my Evo Shift. I'm pretty sure it's worth the trade but before I do I wanna know what's possible on it first.

What all carrier(s) can the Epic be flashed to?

What's the best performing/fastest carrier available?

And is the flashing process easy?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
First he's either trading off a bad device or doesn't understand his E4GT is superior in all ways to the Evo Shift.

Get the ESN and call Sprint to make sure it's clean.

Make sure he hasn't damaged it in any way, internal or external.

There are several Galaxy SII's so check the model number. Ours is SPH-D710 which I think can only be supported by Sprint, although it seems like there's a post somewhere about flashing it to Boost and US Cellular. (Found the links)

For flashing to Boost

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1531303

Keep in mind phones that run on Sprint can not run on AT&T or Verizon networks. (I stand correct, thanks booksyx) apparently it can be flashed to Verizon.

Flashing on this phone is super easy so long as you read and follow all instructions and when in doubt, ask questions. There are several incredible ROMs currently for this phone of both Gingerbread and Ice Cream Sandwich flavors. Read in the development section to see for yourself.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
The post above me has many incorrect statements.

The epic 4g touch can run on almost any CDMA network. I currently have mine running on Virgin Mobile. It can also be flashed to boost mobile, cricket, metro pcs, verizon, etc.

They key to getting it working on those networks is to have a donor phone where you can extract all the NAM keys, esn/meid, and data keys and flash them to the epic 4g touch. Really isnt to hard once you have all the keys to write them.

My epic 4g touch has everything working on virgin mobile. Calling/SMS/MMS/3g/Wimax. However you will have to go elsewhere for a wimax solution. Best part is I only pay $25 a month for all this! :P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tmb04:
The ESN is clean and it's also relatively new. Not 100% sure what the exact model is but i'll find out when he gets off work.

The whole reason he's making the trade is because EVO is his favorite phone. He was going to trade me his iPhone 4 for my EVO but then I found out that even if I flash the iPhone 4 that Data and MMS dont function fully. So I didnt want that.

But If the Epic is that much more superior that makes me want it more now, as long as I can get it fully functional on a prepaid service that is.

I wasn't aware there was so many different versions. Because he didnt tell me it was an Epic, all he said was Galaxy S II. So I ended up posting in the wrong forum. But his is Sprint though so everyone said it's an Epic 4g Touch.

That's good that it's relatively easy to flash. I personally prefer boost, but whatever is fully functional and runs the fastest

*Edit

Does every carrier require a donor phone to Flash to?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Many incorrect? lol I see one (oh make that two, didn't know that about Verizon) and that's why I said thinks like *I think* as in I'm not 100% sure, just going on what I've recently read here on XDA.

Thanks for clarifying that though.

no cwm works fine, its just the roms themselves. hes getting status 0 because he has an old update-binary in there.

however you do need to be careful because the other rom (who im guessing was also using dsixdia's kitchen) was trying to use an update-script (which hasnt been able to be used since CWM 3.0, we are on 5.5.0.4 now... cwm 3.0 was out with froyo).

if you want proof of that go find something like the v6 supercharger script and flash that, or any of the many many flashable things that wont screw up your system (here is a really good one i recommend its a REALLY nioce anti theft app) or heck look in your own general section for a man that took some time making toggles for you guys http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1620918 he seems to have it flashing through cwm.

the common denominator isnt cwm, its people using rom kitchens :/ if you want to use them to speed things along thats fine, really it is... however if your starting off and thats all you use then when things go wrong (like this or the other rom thread) you dont know how to fix it because you didnt learn on how things work.. just what options make your phone go zoom zoom! please dont take this as a bashing, but more of a "the more you know" kinda **** if your serious about rom development then pick up and learn.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazemiah:
Hi all,

I was hoping someone could help me with a problem I've had with my HTC Desire HD. I've unlocked the phone (but not rooted) having moved from the UK to Canada and wishing to use a Canadian sim card in my phone.

However, I don't get any signal or any network with my Canadian (Virgin) sim card. It accepts the sim card and allows me to use the phone, but I get no signal whatsoever. I've tried taking the battery out and waiting 30 minutes, and have gone off and onto airplane mode to attempt to get it to connect to a network, but nothing.

Is this something that rooting the phone could help with? Is the fact that I'm in a different country anything to do with it? The only network it can even find is called 'EXT' but it won't connect. Anyone able to help?

Some extra info:

Model Number: HTC Desire HD a9191

Android Version: 2.3.5

HTC Sence Version: 3.0

Software Number: 3.13.61.5

Any help would be so greatly appreciated.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsdta:
I'm going to cover the obvious first, you put the sim cover back on right? Its needed for the antenna
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazemiah:
Yeah, the cover is back on.

The other strange thing, is that the phone recognizes a Canadian number in the Phone Identity.

I've tried a different Canadian sim card, and that works. The sim card that is not getting signal works in other phones too.

It's all a bit odd.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsdta:
Sounds like its the sim card is the issue. I had a similar encounter a while back, my sisters tmo sim wouldn't work but my brothers tmo would. So it could be just needing a new sim or the carrier might have some kind of lock on their Sims. Just because a phone is sim unlocked d doesn't guarantee any sum will work its kind of a trial and error sometimes
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazemiah:
Thanks mate. Perhaps I'll take it down to where I got the sim card, see if they're able to help me out or not.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michalpro:
Desire HD from UK will not work at all in Virgin Mobile Canada.

VM Canada as being a virtual operator uses the Bell Mobility Network.

Bell Mobility works in LTE band and 3G but 850 MHz and 3G 1900 MHz.

Desire HD does not have those bands in 3G (only 900 and 2100 MHz).

Desire HD has 850 MHz and 1900 MHz band but only for GSM 2G. But Bell Mobility does not have GSM network. Only 3G and LTE.

Here is the list of the mobile operators in Canada. You can use SIM card from any operator which has GSM 850, 900 or 1900 MHz or 3G 900, or 2100 MHz.

http://maps.mobileworldlive.com/network.php?cid=88&cname=Canada

(but please check if any of those compatible operators have any coverage in your area. From the network you found it seems that Execulink Telecom has the coverage but it will be only 2G).

You may see people using there Desire HD in VM network, but if you take a closer look, this is actually HTC Inspire 4G which is basically Desire HD but for the North American market with LTE and different band radio modules.
